To anyone who remembers The Soup, the only program on the E! Network ever worth watching, you might remember a segment they had called “Gay Shows,” where a clip with some homosexual subtext would be shown, and they would often be at the expense of Gold Rush: Alaska. Lots of talk about drilling and glory holes, if you catch my drift. But there’s a fine line between subtle double-entendres and full-on “this is very, very gay, and I like it.” And thankfully for me, and many others, Yuri!!! on ICE is a case of the latter.
Continuing from last week, Viktor’s sound asleep at the Yu-topia hot spring inn, but news of his departure from Russia has seemed to make headlines, with many citing that video of Yuri skating his routine to be why he’s flown out to be his coach, complete with luggage and boxes of furnishings for his new residency. Back in Russia, though, the younger and more short-fused Yuri isn’t too happy over this bit of news. With any coaching regimen, there’s always a first step, and for Viktor, his first step for Yuri is to cut that extra weight, which means one dire cutback: no more pork cutlet bowls. GASP! Yuri and Viktor start setting up the new room, when Viktor… well, I’ll just say that he gets pretty close to Yuri, asking him quite a few “trust-building” questions. Sure, and it’s nothing more than just that. Yuri ends up being just a little bit flustered over these new living arrangements, but in his own words, he says to himself, “My heart’s pounding because of how happy I am.” Again, not saying nothing, but yes. From there, things shift over to, of all places, a ballet school. And more specifically, Yuri’s ballet school, with his instructor, Minako, telling him to take advantage of Viktor offering to coach him back to success. There was a pretty cute moment with Yuri and Viktor at the nearby Hasetsu Castle, which Yuri calls a home for ninjas, so naturally, this leads to a photo-op for Viktor on the ol’ Instagram, with “#ninja” under the picture. And, of course, since it was geo-tagged, a LOT of media folks and general fans find out where he went off to. A week passes by, and it seems the Russian Yuri is on the hunt for Viktor, keeping a close track of his whereabouts and geo-tagged Instagram posts.
Backstory time, everybody! Back when Yuri (the Russian Yuri) was a younger child, he would often get scolded by his and Viktor’s coach, Yakov, for going too far with routines – you know, 4 spins instead of 3 or 2. And during this time, a promise was made – if Yuri can win the Junior Worlds without any quad jumps, then Viktor will choreograph a program just for him. Back in the present day, though, Yuri (the Russian Yuri) finds his way to the skating rink, where Yuri (the Japanese Yuri) bolts to, and this leads to the meeting of the Yuris… which is mostly made up of the Russian Yuri trying to punk out the Japanese Yuri. I sense some jealousy, here. And with both Yuris watching Viktor run a routine on the ice, the Russian Yuri’s motivation comes to the surface: he wants Viktor’s help for his seniors debut at the next Grand Prix Final. But with two Yuris wanting similar end goals, what is Viktor to do? A compromise, choreographing a program for the both of them. And it’s gonna be made into quite the grand show at Ice Castle Hoshido, to see who can wow the audience more. And unfortunately for Yuri, “Yurio” (now coined) is staying with him and Viktor. Strange bedfellows, indeed. To close out the episode, both Yuris are with Viktor, where he has them listen to the music for their programs and tell him what they feel about it. Both Yuris have their own takes, serving as their own counter-points and differences in character, and they both like one variant more than the other. So, naturally, Viktor declares that they’ll skate to the opposing songs, instead. They both have one week to master their routines and come out with a surprise performance. Good luck, gents.
Drama bomb, y’all. We have our trio of the established heartthrob, the new flame, and the old flame, all commingling with one another. Get ready for hijinks and drama to form out of this unique union. It turns out, as confirmed with this week’s episode, Viktor seems to be trilingual, knowing Russian, Japanese, and even a little bit of English, and he’s taken a strong liking to some of the Japanese cuisine courtesy of Yuri’s family. As someone who has a very broad European ancestry, this kind of cultural inclusiveness rings well with me; it’s always nice to see characters in an anime that aren’t always Japanese… even though they all speak Japanese with perfect fluency. But hey, in fiction, the narrative’s language is the universal language. In probably the most noteworthy moment of the episode, we have the scene of Viktor asking Yuri everything he wants to know, while getting very handy. A touch to the shoulder, the hand, and the chin, along with quite the longing stare into his eyes. I’m not going to say anything for fact, but come on. We know. We all know. And that ship is sailing itself. Knowing more about “Yurio,” after this episode, I’m getting a serious vibe of “ex-boyfriend who hasn’t let go” from him. Clingy, jealous, short-fused, unwilling to play with others, the signs are all there. And I’m not too much of a fan of that kind of thing. Didn’t like it with Rin from Free!, and I don’t really like it here. As for these three little kids that keep butting in the flow of things, my stance on little children groups in anime remains the same: NO. Nothing is contributed, and they’re always an annoyance. Looking at you, Eureka Seven. The themes of the music at the end, interestingly enough, are of “unconditional love” and “sexual love.” Both themes strike a chord, with Yuri liking the former and “Yurio” liking the latter, so it’ll make for an interesting end result with what they come up with, next week. In all, though, this show is keeping steady, through its second episode, personal character archetype grievances aside. It’s supplying plenty of “the gay” to keep me coming back, and I just want to see it build and build throughout the rest of the series, and this time, have it end with proper resolution. As in… you know, lip-on-lip action.
If there was a moral to be learned in this episode, though, it’s this: don’t use geo-tagging on Instagram. Ever.
Yuri!!! On ICE is available on Crunchyroll as a weekly simulcast, every Wednesday at 3:00pm EDT. An English simulcast dub will be available from Funimation later this fall. Additional screencaps are available here.

I've been using SyntaxHighlighter to highlight code portions on my site for a while. Ok, I haven't posted in seven months, but when I was posting more often, I did all of the code formatting by hand, and the capabilities were about 90% of what I wanted them to be. There were a few brushes that didn't quite work right -- (The perl brush, for instance, replaced all of the >'s with >. Thankfully, one of the user community stepped up and fixed it.) -- but, on the whole, it really did a nice job. Posting said code, however, was a bit of a formatting pain and I was looking for a more convenient way to do so.
If you happen to post a lot with a particular language, feel free to change the defaultValue to something more relevant. I chose sh because it's short. You could, alternatively, choose nothing.

everytime on the actual game when i try to play online it freezes my laptop does this happen to anyone else plz help?
@joshypooh it might be a memory issue josh. You could try turning on the debug console and see if anything shows up before it freezes. Hit "engine preferences" then "testing" then "show console always"
Does it work ok in local mode ? Does it happen on different games ?
What are the specifications of your notebook? Especially the amount of RAM is interesting.
What Operating System are your running (Windows, Linux or MacOS)? 32 or 64 bit?
Do you have the latest Java 8 installed?
Which TripleA-version are you trying?
Is only a special map affected - or does it happen with every map?
Does this occur everytime you run TripleA and try to go online or does it happen only with a special game?
Please add as much details as possible. Thank you.

This battery is an exact replacement for the IBM 39J5057 laptop battery. This IBM 39J5057 laptop battery equivalent is guaranteed to meet or exceed IBM original specifications. This IBM 2780 39J5555 5580 5708 5780 74Y6773 74Y6870 laptop battery equivalent fits many different make/model combinations - a complete list is below.
Maximize Performance of IBM 39J5057 Laptop Batteries..
let the power of the IBM 39J5057 batteries (15%) drain to 0% When you use your brand new Battery first time. And then full charge it(usually chrage it full 12 hours) and let it drain to 0% again. Do this for 2~3 cycles.
Don't leave your computer plugged in constantly when it is not in use. If your computer always relies on this power, it will loose its ability to last long on its own. So always charge your computer when the IBM 39J5057 is almost dead and then unplug it from the wall.
Keep your notebook in a well ventilated place and keep it cool. Your IBM 39J5057 battery works faster when it is hot because it is creating more energy and is burning out faster.
Do not place battery for IBM 39J5057 notebook in device for a long period of time if device is not being used.
Keep the battery clean. Avoid exposing the battery to extreme heat or cold. Use your IBM 39J5057 notebook battery. If possible, avoid letting your laptop batteries sit dormant for long periods of time.
To cycle your IBM 39J5057, all you need to do is run your battery completely down, letting it shutoff by itself, let it recharge fully without unplugging it, and then it has been conditioned.

Next week will mark the opening of a much awaited cultural site, The National Museum of African American History and Culture, sitting on an expansive 5 acres along Washington DC’s National Mall.
After 13 years of construction, the hazy brown structure is unlike any of it’s neighboring museums, and is intended to carry traces of Western African architecture. The museum’s 3 history-themed levels span the course of pre-European slavery to the 1968 March On Washington, which is the historic site visible from the entrance to the museum. There is even a level dedicated to more modern day African Americanism, with odes to such figures as Anita Hill, who fought a corrupt justice system, and the Black Lives Matter movement. Perhaps most raw of all, though, is the casket of Emmett Till, held in a closed-off room separate from the rest of the exhibits. Additionally, a grief counselor was hired to work at the museum to assist with some of the more graphic artifacts.
artifacts from President Obama’s past inaugurations, the message isn’t politically aligned one way or the other, but rather aligned with the triumphs and struggles of African Americans in US politics over the course of 300 years. The goal is for the museum to embody history for what it is, a never ending string of events, and that more and more can be added through the years. When people enter this beating heart of a race so blatantly oppressed, they will see Chuck Berry’s red cadillac convertible, Emmett Till’s casket, and everything in between, and hopefully walk away from the experience a more empathetic and aware person.

Nicole Kidman once said “[a]nyone that’s been in the place of wanting another child or wanting a child knows the disappointment, the pain and the loss that you go through trying and struggling with fertility.” The agony of infertility is frequently compounded by the fact that many suffer in silence. However, recent campaigns and articles, such as the #SaytheFword campaign and the recent Vogue article about Lena Dunham’s decision to remove her uterus are bringing this issue to light. There is power in speaking and we can learn from one another’s experiences.
Furthermore, the paths available to create a family are seemingly more complex than the problems which lead to infertility. While Chrissy Teigen was able to conceive using IVF, Kim Kardashian turned to surrogacy, and Emma Thompson ultimately adopted a child. Thompson stated, “I couldn’t have more children, and that was hard; but perhaps if I had [more biological children], I’d have missed out on this extra act of mothering that I’ve had with Tindy,” who Thompson adopted in 2003.
One of the lasting questions that this article presents is how do we speak to one another about fertility? Gabrielle Union, who endured eight or nine miscarriages, states that the hardest part of infertility are the questions. “For so many women, and not just women in the spotlight, people feel very entitled to know, ‘Do you want kids?’” she says. “A lot of people, especially people that have fertility issues, just say ‘no’ because that’s a lot easier than being honest about whatever is actually going on. People mean so well, but they have no idea the harm or frustration it can cause.” She indicates that the subject must be broached with caution. Well-meaning questions can often cause more harm than good and ultimately silence women who are already struggling to find their voices.
Ultimately, we must be sensitive when speaking to one another about infertility. Although 1 in 8 couples struggle with this disease, we can all play a role in creating an environment that facilitates open communication. If we want individuals to speak, we must learn how to listen.

A guy spends $1.94 on his prepaid VISA card and receives a bill for $23,148,855,308,184,500. VISA also charged him a $15 overdraft fee.
This tale of IT failure is so extreme as to be a joke, making it the perfect story for a mid-summer Friday.
A guy spends $1.94 on his prepaid VISA card and then receives a bill for $23,148,855,308,184,500. Making things worse, VISA also charged the poor fellow an additional $15 fee.
In a comment titled "Visa deserves glitchslapping?," an anonymous coward pointed out that the incorrect charges, which applied to purchases for cigarettes, gasoline, and sundry other items and services, came to exactly 2,314,885,530,818,450,000 cents, which when converted to binhex comes to 2020202020201250.
"It looks to me like somebody blank-filled a field, plopped the actual charged amount into the end (hex 1250, decimal 4688, likely amount $46.88), and then interpreted the entire field as a hex number," AC wrote. "If so, this is the kind of bug that would have been caught in even the most cursory testing, in which case the 'technical glitch' Visa talks about was not really in the software--bugs happen--but in their own shoddy procedures that allowed untested software to go live."
This still doesn't explain how 13,000 people could all be charged precisely the same amount for purchases whose real-world value were vastly different. Reg reader Stuart McConnachie, who also forwarded the binhex theory, guesses the identical overcharge is the result of a rounding error. When converting to a real number, only the first 15 digits were included, he said. The remainder were converted to zero.
Moral of the story. Check your bill carefully, I suppose. What do you think?

Several new agents with significant activity in relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma have been developed in the past few years. Until study results with these newer agents are available, ABVD enters its 41st year as the standard initial treatment of patients with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma.
The ability to cure a majority of patients with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma is one of the major milestones of success in the combination chemotherapy era. It has been over 40 years since Bonadonna and colleagues in Milan developed the ABVD regimen (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine).1 Randomized trials clearly showed that ABVD was superior to the initial curative regimen [MOPP (nitrogen mustard, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone),2 as developed by DeVita and colleagues at the National Cancer Institute. Results with ABVD were excellent. Approximately two-thirds of all patients with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma could be cured with initial therapy, and another 10% to 15% could be salvaged by autologous bone marrow stem cell therapy.
Attempts to increase further the initial progression-free survival resulted in the development of the BEACOPP regimen (bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone) by Diehl and colleagues in the German Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Study Group.3 Their studies showed a significant improvement in progression-free survival compared with MOPP-like regimens. Subsequent randomized comparisons of BEACOPP with ABVD, however, failed to show survival benefits. In addition, the increased toxicity of BEACOPP, which includes permanent infertility, prolonged fatigue, myelodysplasia, and potentially acute leukemia, limited the use of these regimens in the United States.
In a recent article in The New England Journal of Medicine, summarized in this issue of The ASCO Post, Johnson and colleagues reported the results of a multinational study that attempted to use interim positron-emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) scans conducted after two cycles of ABVD to determine whether patients could complete six cycles of treatment with a less toxic therapy or would require more intensive therapy.6 To be specific, patients with a negative PET scan after 2 cycles (defined as 1 to 3 on the 5-point Deauville scale) were randomized to complete either the 6 courses of ABVD or receive AVD for the last 4 courses.
The absolute difference in the 3-year progression-free survival was only 1.6%. The confidence limits did permit the possibility that there is a 5.3% difference between the two regimens when the study had been originally designed to exclude a 5% maximum difference. Nevertheless, this finding strongly suggests that bleomycin could be successfully removed after two cycles following a negative PET scan. Interestingly, the toxicity from bleomycin in patients receiving six cycles of ABVD was significantly lower than usually reported, so there is no possibility to show for sure that pulmonary toxicity varied between the two arms.
Those patients with a positive PET scan after two cycles were put on the BEACOPP regimen. This was a nonrandomized part of the study, resulting in a 3-year progression-free survival rate of 67.5% and an overall survival rate of 87.8%. This is significantly higher than the rates in the original Gallamini et al study, which retrospectively predicted that patients with a positive PET scan after 2 cycles of therapy would have a 12% 2-year progression-free survival rate after 6 cycles of ABVD.7 Thus, the results in the PET-positive patients in the Johnson et al study are extremely encouraging, although there was no relevant concurrent comparative group in the trial.
It is likely that this large well-conducted prospective randomized trial will establish a new standard of care for patients with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma. Although the magnitude of the bleomycin toxicity was relatively modest in this trial, bleomycin toxicity is difficult—if not impossible—to predict. The occasional early fatal consequences of that toxicity make it likely that practitioners will choose to use the PET scan after two cycles as a method of eliminating bleomycin in the subsequent four cycles. The fate of patients with PET-positive disease after two cycles is much less clear, and further studies are clearly indicated.

"DREAM Solar Higuchi Nagasaki," a mega- (large-scale) solar power plant with an output of about 15MW, is located in Togitsucho, Nishisonogi-gun, Nagasaki Prefecture (Fig. 1). Togitsucho is situated to the north of Nagasaki City's central area, facing Omura Bay.
The power plant was built on the former "Higuchi Togitsu Country Club" golf course. The location is about 19km from the Nagasaki Tarami Exit of the Nagasaki Expressway, about a 10-minute drive from Michinoo Station on the JR Nagasaki Main Line. The former golf course was built leveraging the mountain slopes. Despite the short total length of 6,005 yards, it was a mountain course with a relatively wide range of heights.
The power producer is Daiwa Lease Co Ltd (Osaka City) of the Daiwa House Industry Group. The Daiwa House Group has been engaged in everything from development to operation of the power plant while Daiwa House Industry Co Ltd provided engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services and Daiwa Lifenext Co Ltd (Minato-ku, Tokyo), a building and condominium management group company, is responsible for its operation and maintenance (O&M).
The golf course commenced business in 1983 and terminated business in June 2014. The Daiwa House Group rented the site from Mitsudomoe Co Ltd (Nagasaki City), which had owned and run the golf course, and built the mega-solar power plant there. It started construction in August 2014 and power sales Nov 2, 2015. All generated power is sold to Kyushu Electric Power Co Inc.

This studio reimagines the factory for the twenty-first century, setting out to understand the architect as a builder of not merely physical edifices but also social, conceptual, and technical structures.
If modernity is defined by mass production, then the factory is modern architecture’s definitive typology. Early factories were widely understood as sublime, sites of awe and horror that could only be overcome by the exertion of human reason. Spurred by this challenge, from the eighteenth century onward, architects and social reformers envisioned rational and just factories, not merely workplaces but rather centers of human habitation, places of joy in labor, and envisioned societies built around them.
Today, the factory evokes images of structures either converted to art museums, lofts, or abandoned to decay. With factories outsourced, design has all but abandoned re-imagining this critical site of human activity, the one truly new building type of modernity. Our interest is to use architecture and the most advanced thinking in network culture to construct new and better ways of life. In doing so, this studio is engaged first and foremost with institution building and shaping of social behavior.
The studio topic emerges from research into how we can navigate a landscape defined not by scarcity but by over-abundance. The very model of economy—the management and distribution of scarce resources— is undone by overproduction and overaccumulation. 19 million housing units are vacant in the United States, 345,000 in Ireland, 340,000 in Dubai, 1.5 million in Spain and 64 million in China. Such stark figures call into question the very premise of building. What is the purpose of building—no matter how sustainably—when it means only more excess that must somehow be consumed?
The overproduction in housing has been accompanied by the overaccumulation of capital and overconsumption in advanced countries. The result is a bloated economy that cannot easily restart itself. Even as the stock market gyrates upward, unemployment levels in this and many other countries remain at Depression-era levels. Anticipating the current economy continuing its downturn for a protracted period of time, we feel it becomes crucial to imagine a saner economic structure than the current one. Deriving through financialization and conspicuous consumption based on debt is sheer madness.
We set out is to ask not only how architecture can continue to function in this condition but also how it can play a transformational role in it. This studio sets out to re-envision productivist thought for the 21st century, aligning itself with earlier projects targeting the relationship of production, design, and society such as the Gothic Revival, the Arts & Crafts, the Deutscher Werkbund, Russian Productivism, the Bauhaus, the Hochschule für Gestaltung at Ulm, and the Counterdesign movement.
Against a cynical world in which architects—and even studios in schools of architecture—have unabashedly agreed to serve and authoritarian clients, we believe in a new ethics. Against all hope, we ask if it is possible to produce a new morality of objects. We reject the self-expressive and performance-based models of design that dominate today as incompatible with a post-scarcity society. This studio’s central task is the invention of an ethics of design appropriate to network culture.
Students will develop centers for small-scale manufacture and distribution. These centers will eschew a corporate model for a commons-based model, providing infrastructures, enclaves, guilds, or clubs in which individuals and small groups can work. Our intent is to envision such centers as means of reinvigorating local economies even as they provide models for life in societies if and when our current economic system collapses.
Beyond the ambitions of the studio at a societal level, we hope to provoke thought about how graduates of architecture can thrive in an economy that is likely will never again provide traditional positions in sufficiently large numbers to employ them. In envisioning the new factory we will look also to new institutions established by architects or artists—like the Museum of Jurassic Technology, Center for Land Use Interpretation, Telic, Center for Urban Pedagogy, Temporary Services, and the Public School. We will also look at new cultural forms emerging on the Internet such as crowdsourced initiatives, open source projects, piracy, online help forums, Craigslist, Wikipedia, and maker culture that offer alternative models of social interaction.
Where Margaret Thatcher’s dictum about neoliberalism, “there is no alternative,” seems to rule, we say, “no, there is an alternative” and set to envision it in concrete terms. Within the network economy, these our factories are meant to embrace short-run, generally high-technology (although not necessarily or exclusively high technology) production. In alternate economic models—or in a severely protracted downturn—these factories may be repurposed for the purposes of retrofitting and repairing existing products.
Our strategy for site navigates both physical and virtual space. We begin with a concern for situational ethics while plunging headlong into the problem of overabundance and unequal distribution.
The physical site for the studio is the greater New York metropolitan area. Gutted by high operating costs and decades of city policy that aimed to turn Manhattan into a control center for management and finance, manufacturing left the city, eliminating roughly 80% of the jobs in that sector. Instead, New York has become a “global city,” a key urban node in the worldwide financial network. Finance now accounts for some 35% of the city’s wages. The result is a city increasingly unaffordable to anyone but those engaged in the financial sector, ruled by its richest inhabitant who insists he runs it like a business and once dubbed New York “a high-end product, maybe even a luxury product.” We believe that this is not only inequitable, it poses serious questions of long-term sustainability.
As finance becomes further virtualized while the city’s telecommunicational base ages, and enclaves like Greenwich, Connecticut become home to more and more large investment funds, we question whether New York will be able to depend on financial interests in a decade. Nor are these issues merely local. The decline in manufacturing in the United States and rise of finance is a key factor in the long-term economic downturn we are experiencing.
Each student will be responsible for identifying a site.
Architectural strategies of coping with overabundance will also be explored in the use of large datasets that will be exploited for the purposes of site selection. Using information from the American Community Survey we will target areas in the greater New York area in need of economic development having potential to act as bases for the sort of institutions we are developing. In a series of tutorials, studio teaching assistant Leigha Dennis, will instruct students on the use of ArcGIS and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software as well as how to improve the raw maps output by this software in Adobe Illustrator.
Having identified sites, students will devise programs for 21st century factories, specifically commons-based workshop facilities providing members with access to equipment, instruction, means of storage and distribution, and possibly living quarters and other amenities. These factories will set out to satisfy what Chris Anderson calls “the long tail of things,” employing high technology means such as CNC milling and 3d printing for rapid prototyping and small batch manufacturing. Students will develop process diagrams for the activities that take place within their factory and embed them within visual arguments for their projects.
Students will identify a set of possible programmatic elements that fit their factory, which will be roughly 15,000 to 60,000 feet in size (between 50% and 200% of the square footage of the Dessau Bauhaus building). Among these will be manufacturing center, media center, dormitory, common area, storage, shipping preparation, loading dock, and distribution.
Students will be asked to consider how their factories engage the megalopolis in which they are sited. In the wake of an era defined by the attention-seeking strategy of shaping, it is only appropriate to ask if architecture shouldn’t lose its singularity and obsession with performance. Can we develop architectural strategies aimed at producing less individualistic works that operate in a more ambient register, embracing formlessness instead of shaping, works that build intensity more subtly rather than giving it away all at once, works that question the boundaries between the city and the building rather than affirming them?
With regard to means of distribution, although this is not a requirement, it is plausible that some students may want to envision more complex forms of engaging the city through forms of distribution such as a kiosks, stores, or mobile units that might distribute manufactured goods throughout the city.
Students will be responsible for the structure and cladding of their buildings, deciding on systems that are economically feasible while appropriate to the work being done within. Students may turn to CNC milling, 3d printing, and other systems native to their factories but may also engage existing structural systems. Complexity will not be valued for its own sake. Projects are not limited to new constructions or empty sites but may also involve retrofitting existing structures.
This studio’s representational strategies are informed by its ethical ambitions. During the boom, ultra-realistic renderings and Photoshop-based montages dominated architecture studios. We propose that this sort of representation is inappropriate, corresponding to what Mark Fischer has dubbed “capitalist realism, a condition in which we are offered nothing but the present the eagerly wait for the next thrill the system has to offer. Evacuated of any critical intent, such work only cements the false notion that modern technology has made communication transparent.
Specifically, given our subject matter we might look to industrial processes, which have produced a vast body of drawings—from exploded axonometrics to cutaways to flowcharts to process design drawings—all more attuned to serialism and reproduction than architecture has ever been. Such diagrams not only offer rich territory to mine for representational strategies, their close study allows us to better understand the topic we are involved in. Precise, unshaded hidden line drawings, plan, section, elevation, and axonometric offer us a carefully and logically articulated system of delineation appropriate for a manufacturing facility.
In addition, appropriate architectural forms of representation responding to the post-bubble condition recession can be found in the representational strategies produced in Japan during the Lost Decade of 1990 to 2000. In contrast to the overly exuberant and formal bubble architecture of the 1980s, post-bubble architectural representation—particularly that by Atelier Bow-Wow—was restrained even as it toyed with the absurd, tending to produce extremely rich drawings that chronicled a proliferation of contextual quirks and impossible conditions as well as drawings embracing a video game aesthetic to explore superflatness and pixilation.
Students are expected to maintain a tumblelog of their research at tumblr.com and to keep up with the tumbleogs of other students. All students are expected to mail the instructors with the address of their tumblelog by the second class meeting.
Work should be thoroughly and completely represented. A brief bibliography of books on design and presentation is appended.

It’s with great sadness that I have another death to mark. Detlef Mertins, former Chair at Penn, who played a formative role in my career by hiring me for a semester at Penn, has passed away.
Deltef was a brilliant scholar and a good person. I truly enjoyed my time teaching for a semester at Penn with him and deeply appreciated how much he believed in me.

Now that we know that the chances of being audited are low, the question becomes, what are some “red flags” that will increase the chances of your return being part of the “chosen few”.
Claiming an alimony deduction increases focus by the IRS. The rules on deducting alimony are complicated, and the IRS knows that some filers who claim this write-off do not satisfy the requirements. Mismatching between the payer and the recipient on their respective returns will almost certainly trigger an audit or at least an IRS notice. This will become even more complicated with the Tax Reform passed at the end of 2017 with regard to alimony.
Continuous years of business losses may result in further inquiry by the IRS. Several years of Schedule C or F business losses from an activity that appears to the IRS to be a hobby can wave a red flag. To determine if you have a hobby or a business, ask yourself: is there a profit motive or expectation central to the activity (business), or is it simply a pastime offering an occasional chance for financial gain (hobby)?
Foreign activity may raise attention. Failure to report financial interest or signature authority over foreign financial accounts with a combined total of more than $10,000 at any time during the year will cause your return to be investigated. The IRS is intensely interested in people with money stashed outside the US, especially in countries with the reputation of being tax havens.

Officially called the Gray Catbird, these relatives of mockingbirds and thrashers are distinguished by their “mew” call. They are medium sized, slender, gray with a black cap and bright rusty feathers under their long black tail. Catbirds are energetic, hopping from branch to branch among dense tangles of shrubs and vine covered trees on the edges of the Sanctuary.

The lights start to turn on. The snow we had over the holidays really couldn't have worked out better both photographically and for my first German Christmas. This area is very close to the mountains so there are a million postcard scenes to be captured. You can basically turn your camera in any direction and get a great shot. It helps though to be willing to stand in the dark on a cold hill for a while for the light to be right.
This photograph is overlooking Niederweiler which sits in between Müllheim and Badenweiler. All three towns are so close together it would be easy to look at them as one.

Before a worship service, plan ahead and fill your mind with reflections on God, so that when the service begins you are more inclined to pay attention.
A new LifeWay Research poll shows the need for biblically-grounded, theological education.
How is the Spirit of God going to lead you to truly disciple the new followers of Jesus in your care — to teach them biblical doctrine so that each succeeding generation knows what they believe and why they believe it? Then hopefully the missionary and church planting zeal can continue to prosper with the third and fourth generations to come.

Being a successful product manager or product owner requires more than product management know-how. While being able to create a valid product strategy, develop an actionable product roadmap, and prioritise the product backlog are undoubtedly important, these skills are not enough. You also have to be able to lead others and apply the right leadership styles, as I explain in this article.
As the person in charge of the product, you often don’t have the authority to tell people what to do. Instead, you need to collaborate with the development team and the other stakeholders to help you design, build, provide, and offer a new product or new features. But effective collaboration requires leadership.
Unfortunately, there is no one right way to lead people. The appropriate approach depends on the context. While many people, including myself, favour a visionary product manager—someone who leads through a shared vision—this leadership style is not always helpful. Take a product in crisis that is about to miss a critical release date or has stopped working due to a major bug. This is hardly an opportunity to shine as a visionary leader and guide people by establishing an aspirational goal.
As leadership is context dependent, we need to understand which leadership approaches are available to us and when they are appropriate. Goleman’s classification of six leadership styles helps us with this. Goleman distinguishes visionary, affiliative, democratic, coaching, pacesetting, and coercive styles. Every leadership style has its place and none is always right. Instead, they are intended to complement each other. If you want to excel as a product manager, then you have to be able to apply all of them. Think of the styles as leadership tools that have their unique strengths and weaknesses—like most product management practices, such as user stories and use cases, or goal-oriented product roadmaps and feature-based ones.
A visionary product manager leads through shared goals including inspiring a shared vision. It describes the ultimate reason for creating the product and acts the product’s true north that pulls people in the right direction. A visionary leader says, “come with me”, and lets people work out the details of how to get there.
Being a visionary leader is particularly helpful when creating a new product or a major product update. It encourages shared ownership and responsibility. It provides motivation and direction. But as mentioned before, this leadership style requires that people have the time, expertise, and willingness to figure out how to achieve an overarching goal. This is not always the case, for instance, when the product is in crisis or when people don’t buy into the vision.
An affiliative product manager puts people first, creates harmony, and builds strong relationships. This makes people feel appreciated and improves collaboration. Applying this leadership style helps you establish a trustful relationship with a new development team and new stakeholders and it facilitates building a new product management team. It is similar to servant-leadership, an approach that suggests that leaders should serve the people they lead.
Be aware of the following two affiliative leadership traps, though: Focusing first and foremost on people might create a lack of results orientation, and working well together might become more important than delivering a successful product.
Secondly, helping people bond, especially the development team, is the role of the ScrumMaster or coach in an agile context. You should therefore be careful not to take on responsibilities that belong to others and that may overwhelm you, as I describe in more detail in my post Every Great Product Owner Needs a Great ScrumMaster.
A democratic leader involves people in the decision-making processes and builds agreement through participation. This leadership style increases responsibility and ownership, and it leverages the knowledge and ideas of the development team and stakeholders. It is ideal for making important product decisions that require strong buy-in and for generating and evaluating new ideas.
But be aware that if applied incorrectly, democratic leadership can result in long-winded decision-making processes and delayed decisions. In the worst case, decisions are made by committee, and weak compromises are brokered. You should therefore make sure that people involved in the decisions share a common goal or vision. What’s more, carefully decide who to involve and which decision making rule and process you want to employ, as I explain in more detail in Decision Time: How Decision Rules Help You Make Better Product Decisions.
While coaching isn’t commonly associated with product managers—but rather with ScrumMasters and line managers—it should still be part of your leadership toolkit: Coaching helps you transfer product and domain knowledge to the development team and the stakeholders and it is a very helpful approach to develop and grow junior product managers.
When coaching someone, make sure that the individual is open to coaching and that you provide regular feedback and guidance. Be aware that coaching is a process that requires time and commitment, as people work towards longer-term goals, for example, developing a better understanding of the customer and user needs. If you require immediate improvements or if people aren’t happy to be coached, then the leadership style is not appropriate.
Pacesetting product managers lead by example. You essentially ask people to do as you do. This leadership style establishes clear expectations and high standards. It is useful to show people how a job is done, for instance, how to create a product roadmap, write user stories, or prioritise the product backlog. And it delivers results quickly. But there is a dark side to it.
People may feel overwhelmed and they may worry that they can’t meet your expectations. They may be afraid of making mistakes and not show the necessary ownership of their actions. After all, you say how things are done. If it doesn’t work out, then this is your problem.
Unfortunately, that’s not all. Pacesetting means that you expect high standards of yourself and that you are never quite satisfied with your own work. This can create a negative, overly critical outlook. It can also exhaust you and in the worst case, lead to burn out. As pacesetting is a double-edged sword, you should apply the leadership style with care.
A coercive product manager acts in an authoritarian way and demands immediate compliance. If you employ this style, then you ask people to do what you tell them. It’s a helpful leadership approach to get out of a crisis, such as, imminent danger of missing a critical release date.
But it requires that you are able to correctly identify what has to be done. What’s more, it can lead to loss of motivation, responsibility, self-organisation, and ownership; making mistakes is not tolerated and learning is limited. As it has a negative impact on morale and work climate, you should only use it in emergencies.
If a crisis is brewing, however, if swift and decisive action is required, then you should not shy away from being coercive. Do make sure, though, that you frequently reflect on your intentions and actions and that you question if the leadership style is still helpful.
A big thank you to Geoff Watts for introducing me to Goleman’s leadership styles.
Learn how to select the right leadership style to effectively guide others and become a successful product manager or product owner.
Great article, thanks. My experience is that Product ownership tends to be the achilles heel for organisations in their early agile transformation, because it is not the sort of role that can easily be outsourced to external expertise. Internally having the competency, understanding and most importantly leadership and soft skills is always a challenge.
Thanks for your comment Gareth. I totally agree: to succeed with an agile / digital transformation it’s crucial to understand and correctly apply the product owner role.
Thank you for the feedback! Great to hear that you like the post.

Montblanc is a German company, which was founded in 1906. It is specialized in the manufacture of luxury pens, but also watches, leather goods, jewellery and perfumes.
The House created writing instruments that became icons of writing culture.
In 1910, the first fountain pen was launched. It’s a revolution at the level of the design and also at the level of the technique because it doesn’t leak when it is closed.
In effect, at the time, writings were still made with a feather that we had to dip into an inkpot. And then, the founders of the brand had the idea to design and create a feather which has an individual refill, allowing so to write at any time without inkwell: a real revolution for that period.
In 1913, the white star on the hood, symbolizing the snowy summit and the six glaciers of the Mont Blanc, becomes the logo of the brand, and the new name of the company (before, “Simplo Filler Pen Company”). And since its creation, the strongest symbol of the brand is the “white star” which appears on every pen’s hoods. Moreover the traditional workmanship of the feathers can take at least more than forty steps, and only manuals.
The Montblanc’s pen, called the Meisterstück is still considered as an object of timeless design.
Sustainable value, highest quality, excellence in craftsmanship, and creativity make Montblanc’s products elegant and refined objects, which enrich the individual style of the brand’s customers.
And it’s still used regularly during signatures of important commercial, political or cultural international agreements.

Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni on Friday described migration across the Mediterranean as "one of the great European problems", following the death of 17 people on an Italy-bound boat.
Sixteen bodies were found on board a crowded dinghy floating south of Lampedusa, while another person died shortly after the arrival of rescuers.
The majority are thought to have died from dehydration and hyperthermia, the Italian Navy said.
One person suffering acute hypothermia was flown by helicopter to Lampedusa, while the 74 other passengers were helped on board a navy ship.
A total of 278 boat migrants were picked up by the authorities on Thursday, as people continue to make the perilous sea journey despite heightened risks during the winter months.
Speaking in Rome on Friday, Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni said more action was needed to tackle what has become “one of the great European problems”.
“We can’t think that this is a problem that only involves Italy, Greece, Spain, France and the southern European countries,” he said, imploring EU nations to work together.
Italy continues to save migrants despite ending its Mare Nostrum rescue mission, which was replaced by the EU’s considerably smaller Triton operation.
While Gentiloni said European countries are increasingly aware of the crisis, he called for EU efforts to reach beyond the boats.
“The journey from Eritrea to Italy is one of 4,000km. Often we concentrate on the final 50km, from the coast of Libya to Sicily or Lampedusa. Or what happens afterwards; from Sicily to Scandinavia.
“We should intervene in the horn of Africa, on human rights and the development of these countries,” the foreign minister said.
His comments reflect a broader shift towards focusing on migrants’ departure countries, including calls for registration posts to be set up for asylum seekers abroad.
Those who qualify would then be able to travel to Europe without having to make the dangerous boat journey, Christopher Hein, director of the Italian Council for Refugees (Cir), told The Local earlier this year.
At least 3,300 people have died attempting to reach Europe by boat so far this year.
The Italian Navy rescued 160,000 migrants in just 13 months of its Mare Nostrum operation, at a cost of around €9 million a month.

This is great. The geniuses at People Magazine stitched together pictures of celebrities posing with younger versions of themselves. Think Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey was always such a fine actor? You must've forgot about his goofy haircut! Only remember Leonardo DiCaprio and Christian Bale as superbly talented? They were once wide eyed boys too. And what about Jennifer Lawrence? Well, she's still so young so she just looks like she has a twin.
The photoshopping work is great, the younger version of the celebs all look like super excited fans of the hardened actors we know now. Except Meryl Streep, she always looked regal. See them all at People Magazine.

It translates the 5V serial signals to 3.3V so that you can connect a 5V (down to 3.3V) system to any XBee module. The board was conveniently designed to mate directly with Arduino Pro boards for wireless bootloading and USB based configuration.

Until five years ago, 56-year-old Thokozile Mthembu lived in a shack for the most part of her adult life.
Like many in her community of Orange Farm, south of Joburg, the winter months felt like years. The shacks, made up of corrugated iron, are extremely hot in summer and extremely cold in winter.
These structures are not ideal to live in and Mthembu thought that would be the situation she would have to bear all her life. That was until she was introduced to a humanitarian organisation that would change her life forever.
The Habitat for Humanity South Africa (HHSA) is a non-profit organisation that has made fighting poverty its mission. One of its programmes include building houses for people who live in informal dwellings. Five years ago, the organisation responded to Thokozile’s plight and has since made a difference to many households by building 3 600 houses in 32 communities across the country.
The organisation has changed the lives of thousands as it has built about 3 600 houses in 32 communities in the country. HHSA has been in partnership with the Nelson Mandela Foundation since 2012 with a mission to bring people together to help those in need.
“This call brings to life Nelson Mandela’s legacy in asking everyone to take action to turn the tide on poverty. In partnership with the Nelson Mandela Foundation wehave facilitated house builds in Pelican Park and in Orange Farm Extension 6 in previous years,” says Director Patrick Kulati.
This week, South Africans from all corners of the country celebrated the International Mandela Day and saw people dedicating their time and efforts to improving the conditions within their own communities for 67 minutes.
It was in 2008 that Mandela made the call for people globally to make the world a better place by helping those in need.
For organisations like HSSA, their work never ends and for them every day is a ‘Mandela Day’.
Kulati says the organisation, founded in 1996, is dedicated to the long-term development and sustainability of South Africa’s low-income housing sector and is focused on building thriving communities. Theirs is an ongoing effort to change lives for the better.
“With the support of active citizens and stakeholder partners, we empower communities through leadership, skills development and self-belief to take the lead in their own development,” he says.The organisation has offices in Cape Town, KwaZulu-Natal as well as Gauteng and plans to deepen its impact through expanding its programmes into other South African provinces where shelter is identified as a critical concern.
For the next two financial years, improving shelter conditions through volunteering will be the organisation’s core priority.
Meanwhile, Mthembu, a single mother of four has nothing but praise for the organisation which built her a two bedroom house fitted with a toilet, kitchen and a living room, five years ago.
“Before Habitat for Humanity SA built a house for me. I used to stay in a one room shack. When it was raining, the roof would leak and all my furniture would get wet,” says Mthembu.
Now she lives in a house that has running water and electricity.

Tetanus toxoid is the C-fragment of the tetanus toxin. While the tetanus toxoid is non-toxic, it binds to cells and is internalized in a manner similar to tetanus toxin. It is used as a tetanus vaccine and as a carrier for other vaccines against bacterial pathogens.

The four-day weekend sure flew by. I'm feeling pretty good because I finally organized my creative space. It was getting out of control with bits of paper, felt pens, colored pencils, stencils, inks ... well, you get the idea.
Yesterday the electricity was out for most of the day, so I spent several hours working on my artist trading cards. It was wonderful having my supplies easily accessible in plastic drawers instead of having to paw through folders and bags.
I recently won a giveaway from Photo.Dog.Knit, and the yarn arrived this weekend. Thanks, Lina! It's Sqooshy Sock Yarn from Fiberphile. It's lovely yarn, but I'm not sure yet what I will knit with it. I saw the cutest knit socks at Thimbleanna and Maiden Jane, but I'm not sure I have the skills.
I'm so proud of both my sisters. Lisa is participating in the Loosely Gathered Holiday Art & Craft Show next weekend. This is the first time she'll be offering her paintings to the general public, and I think it's an act of bravery when an artist chooses to put her work out there, especially when it's deeply personal. If you'd like to see more of Lisa's paintings and read about her creative process, please check out her blog, Feltypants: Art & Artifacts.
My younger sister Hilary recently founded a non-profit called Community Counseling Connection to facilitate connections between mental health professionals and the public through education and other activities. This is a valuable service, and Hilary inspires me with her courage to start this project and her amazing business skills. Please check out her blog!
Hope you have an excellent week.
I woke up this morning to a pleasant surprise: rain! I went outside shortly after the sun came up to take pictures of the golden leaves on the ground before the landscapers arrive and blow them away.
Last night while walking Charlie I thought those leaves looked like stars glowing against the backdrop of the dark lawn.
As I'm writing this, Apollo is perched on my lap. He's purring madly, and every so often he gently touches my arm with his paw, politely asking for attention, which I am happy to give him. He loves to have his face stroked.
This is the artist trading card I created for my swap group this month. The theme was family. I had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at my sister's house last night, and family is one of the many things I am thankful for. This year I am especially thankful to have a steady income, a comfortable home, wonderful friends, and my two little furry buddies, Charlie and Apollo. I am also thankful for the blogging community and the friendships I've made with all of you. I'm inspired by your warmth, generosity and creativity.
It's so nice to be off work today. I never shop on Black Friday because I'm allergic to crowds, so I have a quiet day at home planned. I want to organize my art supplies, something I've been trying to do for several months, and catch up on my reading. I'm sure there will be a bit of napping, too.
Guess what I saw this evening?
The restaurant adjacent to the theater offered some tasty Twilight specials.
New Moon is excellent. It is ten times better than the first Twilight movie ... the acting is better, the dialogue is better, the pace is better, the makeup is better ... it's all good. Before I saw the movie I wasn't sure Taylor Lautner was right for the role of Jacob, but as it turned out he was perfect and had great chemistry with Kristen Stewart. The director did an outstanding job bringing the story to life and I enjoyed every minute of it.
It was cold and drizzly today, and I spent the day snuggled inside, working from home. Charlie napped on a heating pad with Apollo curled up beside him.
Now that the day is done, I'm going to knit and watch DVDs. I've been watching the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series, which I never watched while it was on television. Today on the way to the library to return some Buffy DVDs and check out new ones, I noticed that the license plate of the car in front of me read, "I ♥ Buffy." Isn't that a funny coincidence?
Last night I started listening to the Summer on Blossom Street audio book, the latest Blossom Street book from Debbie Macomber. The series is about a yarn shop and the characters that visit it. If you like knitting and are in the mood for light fiction, you might enjoy the series. This is the first time I've listened on audio rather than reading the book, and it was enjoyable to relax in bed last night, knitting and listening.
I started knitting fingerless gloves in Cash Island yarn from Noro, a blend of wool and cashmere. If everything goes well I'll post the pattern next week.
I'm excited to report that my Mesh Bamboo Scarf knitting pattern was featured on FaveCrafts and TipNut. Both of these websites have lots of free patterns for knit scarves that you can see by clicking on the links, as well as craft tutorials, recipes, and more.
I wish I could show you my current knitting projects, but they're holiday gifts and I want them to be a surprise. So instead, here is some of the knitting I completed before I started blogging earlier this year.
This baby sweater is the first and only sweater I've ever knit. It's done in feather and fan with a garter stitch yoke and was ridiculously easy to knit. I got the pattern from a wonderful book called Knitting for Fun & Profit, but sadly I left the book on the trunk of my car one afternoon and then drove off, never to see it again.
This small bag is one of my first felting projects. I wasn't at all interested in felting until my older sister made this bag-- the moment I saw it I wanted to make one of my own. The yarn is called Boku and the pattern was free with the purchase of the yarn from a local yarn shop.
This is the same bag using Paton's SWS yarn.
This is the first of many feather and fan scarves. I tried and failed to knit this scarf several times before I finally got it right. Soon after I started knitting I attempted to sell my stuff at craft fairs, and this is one of the first things that ever sold. A little eight year-old girl bought it after quizzing me about how, exactly, it was made.
This is my favorite scarf. It's knit in bamboo and is SO soft. I love the colors, too.
I live in a very nice apartment with very, very thin walls. It's a problem because I have super-duper sensitive hearing and low tolerance for noise. Lately the sound of my neighbor's stereo and television has been driving me absolutely crazy. It's been so bad that I started looking around for a new place to live. But after checking out several places, I realized I do have a great apartment that I'm not ready to leave.
So I went to Best Buy yesterday and purchased a couple items to help deal with the noise-- a portable CD player and noise-canceling headphones. I rarely buy electronic gadgets (I bought my cell phone three years ago for twenty dollars), so it seemed extravagant to buy these things. But it was an investment in my sanity, and oh, I'm so glad I did it. With those headphones on all I can hear is the lovely music that I choose to listen to.
I treated myself to several CD's, too, which also seemed indulgent (even though I haven't bought a CD in over a year), but I'm enjoying them so much I might buy a few more this afternoon. This Glee soundtrack is awesome and has a bunch of great songs from the television show sung by the characters. Listening to it makes me so happy.
Last night I drifted off to sleep listening to lullabies by Jewel. This is a Fisher-Price CD, but it's for adults, too. (It said so on the label!) She sings a beautiful version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow."
I also bought "The Ultimate Most Relaxing Classical Music in the Universe." Corny title, but it does have some wonderful pieces from Chopin, Debussy, Rachmaninoff, and others. I laid in bed this morning listening to it-- such a pleasant way to start the day.
On a different subject, I bought yarn online for the first time and it arrived yesterday. It's called "Popcorn" and it is for a scarf I'm knitting for someone special.
I know I promised not to mention my slippers again, but I just have to tell you one more thing. The piece of paper with the slipper pattern is on the floor in a corner of the living room (yes, that's where I keep it :), and Charlie keeps laying on top of it like it's his little security blanket. I wonder if he's trying to hint that he'd like a pair?
Hope you're having a relaxing and quiet Sunday.
Do you like chocolate? I sure do. Last Saturday I took my annual trip to the DeBrito Chocolate Factory for caramel apples. It's about an hour drive each way, but well worth it.
I bought a Rocky Road apple with caramel, pecans, marshmallows and dark chocolate. And an Extreme II apple with cashews, pecans, and almonds. Oh, and the best English Toffee and chocolate-covered almonds. Yum!
I just finished reading Attachment by Isabel Fonseca. I couldn't put it down, but have mixed feelings about it. It's the story of a woman who discovers her husband is having an affair and begins an email correspondence with his mistress. She makes many questionable decisions about how to handle her husband's infidelity, and the thing that bothered me is that there was no glimpse of any inner conflict or explanation for why she made the decisions that she did. But it was a page turner and I enjoyed the way the author writes.
Today at the grocery store I picked up Glamour magazine to read the interview with Michelle Obama, whom I admire very much. She's so genuine and down-to-earth. I haven't had a chance to look at it yet-- maybe tomorrow on my lunch hour.
Here is the knitting pattern for these cozy slippers in a medium adult size. I didn't design the slippers, this is a classic pattern that has been around for ages. The slippers are knit on straight needles with two strands of yarn and seamed at the heel and front.
SKP: Slip one stitch from the left needle to the right needle, knit the next stitch, and then pass the slipped stitch over the knit stitch and let it drop.
Gauge: 8 rows of garter stitch with two strands of yarn = 1"
With two strands of yarn, cast on 29 stitches.
Row 1: K9, P1, K9, P1, K9 (this is the wrong side).
Repeat these two rows until the piece is 6 inches long or 2 inches shorter than your foot, ending on a wrong side row.
Row 1: P1,*K1, P1, repeat from *.
Row 2: K1, *P1, K1, repeat from *.
Repeat until the ribbing is 2 inches long, ending on a wrong side row.
Row 1: Rib 7 stitches, SKP, K1, K2TOG, Rib 5, SKP, K1, K2TOG. Rib to end of row.
Row 2: Rib 7 stitches, P3, Rib 5, P3. Rib to end of row.
Row 3: Rib 6 stitches, K2TOG, K1, SKP, Rib 3, K2TOG, K1, SKP. Rib to end of row. You will have 21 stitches.
Cut the yarn with a 24 inch tail. Thread the tapestry needle and slip it through the stitches once, and then do it again in the same direction. Pull the stitches as tightly together as possible to close the toe of the slipper.
Seam the front portion of the slipper one inch in to the garter stitch section.
Seam the heel until you reach the purl stitched edge of the sole. Sew an overcast stitch all around the edge and pull tightly to close the heel. Secure the yarn with a few stitches and weave in end.
Okay, I admit up front, I don't know how to paint. I've never taken a class or made a serious attempt to learn how to do it correctly from a book or any other resource. But I love how it feels to paint, to dip the brush in a mixture of gooey colors and sweep it across the canvas. I love being totally immersed in the process of painting; it is so soothing and satisfying.
Last weekend I was feeling that melancholy that comes when the days get shorter and colder. I got out my paint and a blank canvas and let myself just play without worrying about making something pretty. It made me so happy.
I want to decorate my bedroom in blue and white with a beachy theme, but because I'm on a tight budget I have to do it little by little. I painted this picture to hang over my dresser and feel pretty good about how it turned out. It would be nice if I knew how to draw and could add a sailboat or a bird, but I'm afraid I might wreck it.
With the holidays just around the corner, I'm starting to think about handmade gifts. This is an attempt to knit a slipper. The pattern is so simple, but I've never had good results. I'm hoping my skills have improved and it will work this time. I'll keep you posted.
Well, there's a little black cat peeking over the computer screen, his eyes begging me to play with him, so I better get going. Hope you're having a good week.
Last weekend I went to the De Young Museum in San Francisco with my family in celebration of my little sister's birthday. I'd never seen their contemporary art collection and enjoyed it so much. As I walked through the rooms, absorbing each piece and listening to the narration on audio, I kept wondering, why don't I do this more often?
The above painting is Petunia by Georgia O'Keefe.
The Blue Veil by Edmund Charles Tarbell.
Easter Morning (Portrait of a New York widow) by Frederick Childe Hassam.
This is a sculpture called Anti-Mass by Cornelia Parker. The pieces, which are suspended from above, are the charred remains of an African-American Baptist Church in Alabama that was set on fire by arsonists. It was so moving.
Winter's Festival by Willard Leroy Metcalf. This is a scene I will never see outside my bedroom window here in sunny California, which is why I like it so much.
We ate lunch at the museum cafe, and I had this delicious chicken curry salad with figs, grapes, and mangoes. I didn't eat the figs because, as I explained to my family, I only like them in newton form.
Sculpture of a giant safety pin outside the cafe window.
This is the botanical garden where we took a walk in the afternoon. It was a surprisingly warm and sunny day in San Francisco, and there were squirrels everywhere. They've been fed by tourists so much that they run right up to you and look up in to your eyes, waiting for food. I was constantly explaining to them I don't feed wild animals.
I'm having a lazy Sunday today, laying in bed reading and writing. I can hear my neighbors yelling at the football players on television, and my cat Apollo is curled up against my feet. It's supposed to be 80 degrees today, but I'm pretending it's a cozy rainy day so I can slow down and enjoy being at home. It feels so good to just stop for a day ... stop running around, stop trying to accomplish anything, and just be present in my life and feel gratitude for all that I have.

Nashville, TN (February 2, 2016) – Sunday, February 7th is not just a day to watch the Super Bowl. It is also National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. To commemorate this occasion, a community empowerment event, co-sponsored by Metro Human Relations Commission and Vanderbilt HIV Vaccine Program, will be held at Ray of Hope Community Church in East Nashville on Sunday, February 7, 2016 at 9am. This awareness event, led by renowned pastors Rev. Martin L. Espinosa and Rev. Dr. Renita J. Weems, is designed to help remove the stigma of HIV and AIDS in the African American community by providing the most recent science, research and information on health services in Nashville. Free, private, on-site HIV testing will also be available by Streetworks.
Dynamic speakers living and thriving with HIV/AIDS will share their personal journeys. One of the speakers, Bruce A. Johnson, Jr, is an HIV+ member of the Ray of Hope congregation and former TSU student leader who learned about his status after organizing a testing event for the University.
Lawayne Childrey, an author, journalist, motivational speaker, and Edward R. Murrow Award recipient for exceptional journalism, will also discuss his journey growing up as young, black and gay in the South and navigating life’s challenges as a man infected with HIV. At this event he will dramatize excerpts from his award-winning book, Peeling Back the Layers. (http://www.lawaynechildrey.com). Complimentary lunch and a Q&A session will follow.
This event is a unique opportunity to witness how religious leaders can help empower their community and increase HIV awareness through education and engaging dialogue.

Feltwell Saint Mary's Church, Feltwella possibly stream where the felte plant grows. The second element is well (Stream) felt occurs in some plant names, and there may have been a plant such as a felte. There are two churches in this nice little village in Norfolk, just on the Suffolk border, the roads used to configure an 8, though this has changed and much of the village is one way. The church of Saint Mary's, the newer of the two, stands right in the middle. By newer, this church is in large extent 1275-1375, it was in bad repair and was repaired to what it looks like today in 1834 and in 1862. There is a rood screen, it's highly carved oak, but is partly modern. On the screen are nine carved figures, each playing an instrument. The pews are damaged, this after being mutilated, probably at the same time as the brasses on the floor being removed. The church has a beautiful font and lid. Feltwell Saint Mary's Church, west tower, south porch, nave, south and north aisles and chancel.. Good 14th century tower with pierced parapet and pinnacles, having armourial shields in cuspedf panels. Modern roof and north aisle. Early 14th century sedilia and piscina with graduated seats and curious cinquefoil heads under square label. Fine benches with pierced and traceried backs, and mutilated but interesting grotesques on arm rests. Some with figures and the sentry box group as at near-by-Wilton.

Why Calibrate Your Test and Measurement Equipment?
When you are deciding to buy a piece of test equipment, you would very likely look at its datasheet to ensure that it can perform within certain key specifications important to testing your product. After the purchase, you rely on this equipment to ensure the quality of your products. Over time, you need to make sure that the equipment continues to perform within its original specifications, in order to ensure the validity of your product test results. In other words, can you be sure you are actually shipping only good products, and rejecting every bad one?
This is where calibration comes in.
The purpose of calibration is to verify the actual specifications that your equipment is currently performing to, and to make sure they are within limits as prescribed by the manufacturer, your internal quality standards, or specific customer requirements. This verification is done using external lab standards that have better performance and are traceable to an international system of units via national metrology institutes.
Why calibrate? There are many good justifications for calibration.
In the engineering lab, measurements must be as accurate as possible to ensure that the designer gets an accurate understanding of the device’s behavior. Wrong interpretation of the design behavior will lead to unnecessary design turns, and the further down the development schedule this occurs, the higher the cost.
In manufacturing testing, calibration plays a vital part in validating that the quality processes put in place are under statistical control and operating within allowed tolerances. The cost of product failures in customer hands is usually much higher than the cost of maintaining a good quality process, because it can involve product returns and replacements, managing the returned products (reverse logistics), and potential public relations issues.
For equipment used in critical and high-risk applications such as those found in the medical and defense industries, products are expected to operate to higher standards and withstand harsher environments. Industry regulations and contract terms will require it as well, and your organization must be able to deliver to these requirements in order to compete in these markets.
From ensuring customer satisfaction, lowering long-term operating costs, and meeting regulatory or contract requirements, calibration is a must for any business hoping to deliver high quality products in the most cost-effective manner.
Are you pondering whether or not to calibrate your equipment? Talk to MAT to further understand the cost of calibrating vs. risk of not calibrating, and any of your unique requirements of challenges. We will help you to make sense of it.

This morning around 10:00 AM in West Montreal, Allan Rock, Minister of Health received his just desserts from Agent SíPie of Les Entartistes (The Pie-Oneers) in the form of a sweet lemon merengue pie. This was another gesture to denounce our governmentís position on GE foods as they attend the Biosecurity Protocol Conference being held this week .
We are being force fed GE foods with the consent of the Minister of Health, so we decided to force-feed him with the finest of pies. Rock could not tell whether the pie was made with transgenic ingredients, that is precisely the problem with GE Foods. We never know. But donít worry, the Minister of Health has approved all of this.
Minister Rock seems very concerned about peopleís health in the arena of tobacco (the first transgenic plant) and is planning a strong labelling regime. However, Rock allows GE foods to be sold without any long term testing for human health or environmental safety. Our tax dollars are used to subsidize the genetic engineering industry, and the public are used as lab rats. Over 200 of Health Canadaís own scientists said that there were inadequate resources to properly evaluate the safety of GE foods.
Industry and government are promoting ìvoluntary labeling,î and though this option has been open to companies for years, they have not chosen to label products in North America. Would tobacco companies put diseased lungs on their packages if it was only voluntary?
Last year Robert Shapiro (Monsanto CEO), last friday Joyce Groote (President of BIOTECanada and of the Global Biotechnolgy Industry Coalition), today Allan Rock, tomorrow who knows? We hope that all of the delegates enjoy the week as they decide our fate behind closed doors.
The Pie is the Limit!

SDCC: Elena Kampouris Talks 'Sacred Lies' - Horror News Network - The Horror News You Need!
There is a shift in how people are viewing and enjoying genre programming. While we have seen the increase in streaming services over the years, now we are seeing original programming from services like Facebook and You Tube. “Sacred Lies,” the upcoming show premiering on Facebook Watch on July 27, was out at Comic-Con to promote the show with an escape room to take fans into the show and what it means to be part of a cult. “Sacred Lies” is based on the classic Grimm Brothers tale “The Handless Maiden” and Stephanie Oakes’ novel “The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly,” and is about a handless teen who escapes from a cult and finds herself in juvenile detention, suspected of knowing who killed her cult leader. This is a Blumhouse Television show that is executive produced by Raelle Tucker of “Supernatural” and “True Blood” fame.
Elena Kampouris stars as Minnow Bly and Horror News Network caught up with her at Comic-Con to ask about the challenge of playing a handless character.

"I can answer that for him", Cuban said.
The way Sean Deveney sees it is yes the elder Porzingis had an effect but he's not willing to say it was the deciding factor.
He's already dreaming of the ways to use Porzingis, a 7-foot-3 center/forward, and his prized rookie phenom Luka Doncic, together as a one-two punch in the National Basketball Association.
Porzingis talked about playing with Doncic. Especially if this draft approaches and the Mavs struggle in 2020-21, it makes this selection more valuable.
Mark Cuban has a plan for his new stars. "Everything so far, all the conversations so far, have been very positive". Trey Burke joining the deal made way for Dennis Smith Jr., who the Knicks were always fond of.
Porzingis probably won't get to play with the European star he grew up watching: Dirk Nowitzki. As Cuban told ESPN last week, the Mavs expect Porzingis to sit out the rest of the season as he continues to rehabilitate the torn ACL in his left knee that he suffered a year ago. Check back next season when we finally found out how much it could pay off on the court.
The good news is that Porzingis and the Mavericks appear to be on the same page of keeping the Latvian in Dallas, as Porzingis agreed when Cuban said he plans to sign long-term in Dallas. My leg is feeling great. "I'm still trying to be patient and doing all of the little things right but I'm excited because I feel great".
Porzingis said on Monday that "there might be a time when I go into more detail" about the depths of his discontent as a Knick and the reasons that led him to push for his departure.

This Color Stack print by Jessica Snow is just another reminder to live color fully.
In the mood for something rich? Bake these Mocha-Walnut Brownies. I always love something sweet to munch on.
Live on the wild side with this skinny bangle.
I made this French Hen Sweater mine this week. I'm terribly smitten with the cheeky and charming little chick.
If Gin isn't your drink of choice, perhaps I could interest you in a little Champagne and ice cream? Sounds like a reason to celebrate!
One day, I know we'll have a wee one and name him Max. How's that for over planning? Of course, he'll need this playful crown from Where the Wild Things Are.
Sometimes a girl's got to get back to basics. Can you ever have enough white tees? It's a wardrobe staple. I'm partial to the Painter Boatneck Tee. I especially love the gold-button detail on the shoulders.
No Nice Girl Swears -- Oops!
How fabulous is this neon sign? Cocktail, anyone?!?
A Studded Leather Skinny Belt for the perfect mix of tart and sweet -- what a chic contrast!
Sweeten the day with these L'Amour Fou Flower Earrings. They're both dainty and fun.
P.S. I was so excited to see my Posh Polka-Dot Pillow from Society Social featured in this month's Magalog. Be sure to take a look! Although, it kind of makes me feel like I need to take a photography class and stat.
Love that skinny leopard bangle!! The perfect addition to an arm party!
love the bangle and that neon cocktails sign!!! perfect!
The champs & ice cream recipe sounds unbelievably delicious, absolutely have to try that out ASAP:) Hope you have a fabulous weekend!!

Welcome to another challenge from the creepy, crazy freaky world of MACABRE MONDAY.
We had an enormous amount of response to our challenge last week , so i hope we get the same for this challenge which is......."Get Lost"
that includes a map. Big or small, background or main focus... let's get lost in HDH-land!
I used about 9 different map stamps to make the back ground..... coloured with distress inks and mounted onto a black card base. I then used red paint on one of the splatters from a retired rubber set from SMEARED INK and randomly 'bloodied' up my background. The main image is also from SMEARED INK..... AS DEATH..... coloured with distress inks...fussy cut and added to my background. Finally i ink distressed all the edges with brown then black ink to keep with the vintage feel.
I hope you'll have time to join us this week for this slightly less MACABRE than normal challenge.
Hiya Lyn. Oh my goodness, you always come up with something very different, and full of wonderful detail. Absolutely stunning creation as always.
Awesome Creation and Love this challenge! I must tell you that I am sorry for not being able to stop by sooner! I hope to a better job of it in the future! I have gone back through all of your creations and they are awesome! You definitely rule the roost! Hugs and Hope you have a wonderful week!

What’s your take on President-elect Trump getting involved in state-level economic development with Carrier Corp. in Indiana?
One-off economic development is not a good idea. I appreciate his passion for attracting and retaining jobs, but we have never had in the United States an overarching industrial development policy. Personally, this is an editorial comment from Birgit Klohs: I don’t think in a country this large, with 50 very diverse states, that that would ever work. To me, economic development is a state (and) local policy issue.
What’s the concern with doing economic development on a case-by-case basis?
Every time somebody wants a big pile of money for incentives, let’s just threaten we’re moving to China and we’ll give you a boatload of money. This is not the way to do economic development. There needs to be a strategy through state organizations like the MEDC and organizations like The Right Place at the local level.
Can companies in Michigan expect any new incentive programs from the Michigan Economic Development Corp. next year?
The Business Leaders for Michigan, in a coalition with economic development organizations, proposed a new incentive program for large projects, and unfortunately it died in lame duck. We’re all very upset, but the Speaker of the House would not let it come to a vote. That was beyond disappointing. We still have to compete and the same thing happened with brownfield tax credits that we tried to get reinstalled. The TIF reform died as well.
So businesses shouldn’t count on new incentives next year?
We have all year to try, but until we know the stance of some of our newly elected officials, there is nothing I can comment on. Every time we do this, our competitors win and the people of Michigan lose.
The MEDC got its budget slashed last year. What happens if it gets cut further? Does it put more pressure on your organization?
It does. We’ve been here for 31 years, Southwest Michigan First has been here for how many years, and Saginaw Futures has been there for 30 years. We carry our load. But the idea that because we exist negates the need for a statewide economic development organization is folly. Every state has an economic development organization, a statewide umbrella organization. This is a very symbiotic and very collaborative relationship. We need each other, and you can’t eliminate a state agency.
How do we compete against states like Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and the Carolinas where there is never an argument over do we have economic development at a state or local level? We do have a much better business climate in Michigan than we did several years ago. However, when the state of Mississippi throws hundreds of millions of dollars at $6 billion of new investment, how do we compete? That’s the question. Yet, we have folks in the state who would like to unilaterally disarm (economic development). Some think it’s picking winners and losers. I call it competing.
West Michigan businesses are struggling with the availability of talent and a lack of buildings. When you’re courting companies to come here, how do you get around those two challenges?
It all depends on the company and what they’re looking for. Not everyone looks for a building, but yes, building inventory across the state is very low. However, we’ve managed our way through it. Some companies locally have built new facilities, which opens up an old facility. On the talent side … our unemployment rate is low, but we also have unemployment rates in some parts of our region that are fairly high where people need to be retrained. The DiCastal folks went up to Greenville because there’s a good community college and a labor force that was available. We’re still managing, but I would agree it’s very tight.
Most businesses seem to be in a wait-and-see mode with regards to the incoming administration. How does that impact your operations?

In a new weekly feature, Dana of Empathic Translation will be sharing her views as well as practical tips on understanding and managing your sensitivity as an Empath.
Ok, so you have discovered you are a “Sensitive” – likely identifying yourself as an HSP or an Empath. What are you going to do now?
You are going to set some (very detailed) boundaries! I’m not talking about limiting yourself as a human being, I am talking about BOUNDARIES. This means drawing very clear lines which others ARE. NOT. TO. CROSS. And if they do – you have very clear cut, proactive strategies in place to keep yourself balanced.
Here’s the thing about those who are “Normal” (aka not the beautifully complex human beings that we are); they are NEEDY mother f-ers. And listen, I LOVE human beings, they are my favorite creature on this planet – but the truth hurts. And the truth about most human beings are that, they just don’t get it. Now, my hope is that at some point in your own self-discovery, you will understand the depths of what “it” is. Once you do, it gets easier to maintain balance within yourself as you remain completely detached from emotions and vibrational chaos that is not yours to feel responsible for.
Speaking of responsibility – YOU are your own responsibility. Once you understand this, boundaries are fairly easy to develop and to live by. Others laugh at me when I send them my “Boundaries Bible” because it is so detailed that it almost makes it seems like interacting with other humans is dangerous. Well, as an HSP/Empath, IT IS! This is why most of us are hot wired to run or to defend ourselves all the time – because we understand the inner fury of others and perceive even the slightest of angst within others as assaultive to our state of being. That is a fair reason to feel hyper-sensitive and fearful of your environment.
Basic psychology states that we only FEAR what we do not understand – and admittedly as an HSP or an Empath, we do not always understand the rationale behind what we are feeling, we just know it’s there. This would make anyone “insane.” Einstein says that “Insanity is doing the same thing the same way and expecting a different result.” – so put those together and BOOM, boundaries will keep you SANE! (Did we all just have an Epiphany? An “a-hah” moment? No? Not yet? Ok, I’ll elaborate).
1) A definite place where YOUR responsibility for another person ends and their responsibility for themselves begins. A line clearly established where you stop doing things for others that they should be doing for themselves.
2) An agreement with yourself that stops you from feeling obligated to rescue someone from the consequences of their own destructive behaviors (which they need to experience to evolve themselves) and stops you from feeling guilty for the consequences someone experiences for the actions they’re taking.
Let’s revisit what I previously discussed about humans – They. Are. Needy. So guess what, they might not like it when boundaries are set. Be prepared that when you set boundaries, everyone who’s used to depending on you to carry their baggage, will automatically need to be treated like a 3-year-old having a temper tantrum when told they cannot have candy for dinner and soda in their sippy cup. Expect FULL BLOWN temper tantrums – but remember, inside, they are just children trying to understand and come to an understanding of the dynamics of healthy boundaries. Whether you are a parent or not, you know what it looks like to see children testing boundaries – they just whine and cry and flip out in an attempt to get their way. If this happens, make sure to understand their lack of respect for your boundaries is not YOUR problem – it’s THEIRS.
What do boundaries look like? I’m going to give you a few examples, but I encourage you to look on the internet and social media for “setting healthy boundaries” and depending on your current situation, create an actual typed out list of boundaries that you must revisit every day until they are so ingrained in your head you no longer have to. When I am off-balance with myself about situations, I still revisit this list and it helps me find clarity – after all I wrote the list because they meant something to me and ignoring it is disrespecting myself, which, is one of my boundaries – I refuse to be disrespected.
So. Take the time to set boundaries, allow yourself to evolve and grow and use this as an ever changing list that can be revisited often and updated according to your life situation. Invest the time in yourself to REALLY think about what you need in order to thrive, and which boundaries are key to keeping you on the path of total self-transformation and empowerment.
Feel free to reach out for more details! Remember, there is Freedom in Boundaries!

Ryan Neuhofel operates a pay-as-you-go family practice in Lawrence, Kan., giving his patients, like Bryan Welch, more personalized care.
En español l Fed up with waiting weeks for a medical appointment — and then getting only a few precious minutes with your doctor? The unnecessary tests and referrals to a specialist? Insurance hassles, red tape?
So are doctors. And a small but growing number are refusing to accept their patients' medical insurance. Instead, doctors are running their practices on a "membership" model that they claim allows them to spend more time with their patients and to provide better care.
Is a boutique doctor right for you?
Patients pay a monthly membership fee — typically $50 to $80. In exchange, they get a more generous allocation of appointments, sometimes for the same day or the day after they called. Appointments usually last longer than the average seven minutes per insurance-based visit. Doctors are often accessible via phone, email or Internet chat and some even make house calls.
At some practices, there are no additional copays. Routine tests and procedures are included. At others (usually charging a lower membership fee), certain services are provided at a significantly discounted rate, or a small fee may be charged if patients request more time with the doctor. Privately insured patients may seek reimbursement for such costs on their own.
Physicians and researchers cite three reasons — but all relate to one thing: insurance hassles.
Money: Under the traditional system, most medical practices need a large staff to ensure that they are reimbursed by health insurers. This results in higher overhead — which eats up to 60 percent of a typical practice's revenue — and forces doctors to see more patients in order to cover costs. At the same time, some insurance reimbursements to physicians have decreased in recent years. "Most estimates show that a medical practice spends 30 percent or more of its time and money just trying to collect payments from insurance companies," says Ryan Neuhofel, D.O. who operates a pay-as-you-go family medicine practice in Lawrence, Kan., consisting of himself and a nurse. (Both answer the phone.) "And when we're taking notes about patient visits or care, it's mostly about checking off boxes to satisfy insurance requirements."
Freedom: To get reimbursed, insurers may dictate how doctors must treat each patient based on their concern. "Sometimes, in order to get paid — and meet the insurance metrics model — all a doctor can do is order a test, refer the patient to a specialist or prescribe medication," says researcher Dave Chase. "Communication with patients is their most valuable tool, but they know that if they get into detailed discussions, it blows their productivity numbers."
Better care for patients: Without insurance mandates, doctors treat patients as they deem fit. The membership model provides a steady income, allowing doctors to see fewer patients each day — and therefore freeing the doctors to spend more time with each. Established direct primary care practices average 800 to 1,000 patients; a comparable insurance-dependent practice averages 2,500 to 4,000.
An estimated 5,000 doctors in half of the states have already adopted this model — and as the name implies, most are primary care physicians (sometimes known as general practitioners), the frontline caregivers who handle an estimated 85 percent of the most common conditions.
Chase, who runs a software company that makes electronic forms for doctors and patients, predicts that 16 percent of primary care physicians will adopt a no-insurance model in coming years, with expected growth among cardiologists, pediatricians and more outpatient surgery centers.
Can I see this type of physician if I'm on Medicare or Medicaid?
Usually, no. These doctors opt out of all insurance — including Medicare and Medicaid. However, some practices provide special rates for Medicare patients.
In 2011, U.S. Rep. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) introduced a bill to allow beneficiaries to use these physicians by paying their monthly fees ($100 for Medicare recipients and $125 for those on Medicaid). Despite garnering some bipartisan cosponsors, H.R. 3315 has gone nowhere thus far.
What are the pros and cons for patients?
Pros: The most cited advantages: more and better quality time with doctors — and no insurance red tape, on either end.
"For years, my care was impersonal, inconvenient," says Bryan Welch, 54, who switched to Neuhofel on the advice of his daughter, a medical school student. "And now, I see my doctor when I want, for as long as I want, and we both can be as efficient as possible as we take care of my health."
Cons: Because participants are usually primary care physicians, patients are urged to get catastrophic or other medical insurance for severe health problems and hospitalizations. Also, although monthly memberships are comparable to some insurance co-pays, the bottom line cost may be higher for those who see a doctor only occasionally.
How do I find a physician who does direct primary care?
That's another con: Unless cash-only doctors get media attention — and most don't — it's largely through word-of-mouth. A small, incomplete listing of physician participants is at dpcare.org/practices, and some may be found through the American Academy of Private Physicians, but most of its members are more expensive concierge doctors.

Watching Kim Kardashian walk down a red carpet or post her selfies on Instagram, it's hard to imagine her as anything but confident. The now outgoing and self-assured 34-year-old admitted that wasn't always the case.
When asked by NBC's TODAY host Matt Lauer what advice she would give to her younger self, Kim replied, "I wish I had more confidence when I was younger." The reality TV star went on to surprise the host by revealing that she used to be shy, adding, "Not really insecure, I was just really shy."
Kourtney & I with our dad!
Kim also opened up about her first love, admitting that she didn't know as much about love as she thought she did. "You think you know so much about love when you're really young and you look back later and probably realize it is not what you thought it was."
The mother of daughter North was interviewed on the show as part of a discussion with some of TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential People. Kim was joined on the list by her husband Kanye West, and the pair pulled out all the stops to attend the star-studded gala in honor of the list's release at Lincoln Center in New York City.
It was a big night for Kim, who landed a place on the annual list after receiving praise from fellow female mogul Martha Stewart for her "energy, sexuality, drama, determination, impetuousness and happiness."
Despite being shy as a child, Kim is no longer lacking in confidence and posted a photo of herself in a bikini on Instagram to mark Earth Day on Wednesday. The picture was taken from her new book Selfish, a publication dedicated to her unseen selfies, which is due for release in May. "In honor of Earth Day here is my best plant selfie from my new book #Selfish coming out May 5th! #Ivegotaselfieforeveryoccasion," she wrote.
Kim will be back on TODAY with Matt on April 27 to discuss everything about her family to her approaching first wedding anniversary.

One way to show sportsmanship instead of just saying “good game” is to give each opposing player and coach a firm handshake, eye contact and a sincere “thanks for the game” or “I enjoyed competing with you.” If you are serious about your sportsmanship, you may even pay a specific compliment, for example, if they shot well or played clean, hard defense. Good sportsmanship does not mean you don’t mind losing; it means you are willing to win – or lose – with honor.
Have the players start with a ball and find a space on the court.
The players will take 1 to 2 dribbles to prepare for the move and will then make an in and out dribble move and push forward for 1 step.
The players will then back up to their original spot and repeat the process for the allotted amount of time.
Have the players get into 4 balanced lines at both sidelines and half court and bout sidelines and baseline.
The first person in each line has a ball.
The players with the ball will all dribble to the middle of the floor where they will jump stop together keep a right pivot foot and pivot their left foot around and pass to the next line to their right and follow their pass to the back of that line.
The new players with the ball will continue doing the same.
Work on ball-handling, good jump stops, good pivots and good passes. Make sure the players call out their teammates names as they pass and receive from one another.
Have players divided into groups of 3 and designate each player as 1, 2 or 3.
Player 1 should start on the baseline with a ball. Player 2 should stand across from player 1 at the free throw line without a ball. Player 3 should start on the baseline next to player 1 with a ball.
When the coach says “go,” player 1 will pass the ball to player 2. At the same time, player 3 will dribble and jump stop right next to player 2.
Repeat this action with the pass back from player 2 to player 1 while player 3 dribbles the same distance and jump stops next to player 1. Repeat and change positions.
This drill works on passing, receiving, dribbling and jump stops. Continually emphasize that the pass moves faster than the ball.
Have 4 lines at half court and 4 lines on the baseline lined up with each other and the first player in the lines on the baseline with a ball.
The players with the ball will make a long pass to the first player in line at half court and will run fast to close out on the player.
After the close out, the player with the ball will dribble in either direction.
The player on defense will work hard to turn the dribbler and make them change directions.
Once the player has changed directions and taken a few more dribbles they will jump stop and move the ball around strongly while the defensive player traces the ball.
The player with the ball will pass to the line on the baseline and go to the back of that line and the defensive player will go to the back of the line at half court and the drill will repeat.
Players will get with partners for 2 on 2 and line up on the baseline.
1 player will start at the top of the key with the ball and one player on the wing.
The defensive player guarding the ball will allow the player to have a slight advantage driving the ball to the basket on the side of the teammate.
The player will drive and kick the ball out and the 2 on 2 game will start for 1 shot.
The defensive team becomes offense and the offensive team goes to the back of the line on the baseline. A new team of two will step on for defense.
Encourage the players to play out of a drive and kick situation.

I recently picked up a commission to paint a Space Hulk set. When the game came out a few months ago, I was asked to paint the Marines for my FLGS copy. They were a blast to paint up and went fairly quick so when the opportunity to paint another set came along, I jumped on it.
Some of you may remember that I started a Bloodthirster Bloodbath commission recently (I'm still working on it) and there's a lot of red in those models as well... obviously. Doing the test pieces for those has given me a slight twist to how I paint my reds resulting in a slightly richer color. That and changing the color of my primer (but that's the next post). That's going to help me tremendously when it comes to painting these Marines.
As for the genestealers, I've finally worked out a method for painting them. Everything is supposed to match the box contents for this one.
It's a fairly quick process like most things I do, but it will be time consuming as it requires line highlighting and then blending each highlight.
I'll be using the highlight on the upper part of the arm (the lower part of the arm has a brighter highlight) since it blends better and I can always go back and add some lighter portions for effect if need be.
Since these models are "snap together," I've discovered that by shaving a little bit (and it doesn't need to be much at all) off the sides of the peg part of the joint, the model goes together much better. It makes it easier to get both pieces fully joined and minimizes any potential gaps.

The pancreas is located deep inside the abdomen.
The pancreas is an abdominal organ that is located behind the stomach and is surrounded by other organs, including the spleen, liver and small intestine.
The pancreas is about 6 inches (15.24 centimeters) long, oblong and flat.
The pancreas serves two primary functions, according to Jordan Knowlton, an advanced registered nurse practitioner at the University of Florida Health Shands Hospital. It makes "enzymes to digest proteins, fats, and carbs in the intestines" and produces the hormones insulin and glucagon, he said.
Dr. Richard Bowen of Colorado State University's Department of Biomedical Sciences wrote in Hypertexts for Pathophysiology: Endocrine System, "A well-known effect of insulin is to decrease the concentration of glucose in blood." This lowers blood sugar levels and allows the body's cells to use glucose for energy.
Insulin also allows glucose to enter muscle and other tissue, works with the liver to store glucose and synthesize fatty acids, and "stimulates the uptake of amino acids," according to Bowen. Insulin is released after eating protein and especially after eating carbohydrates, which increase glucose levels in the blood. If the pancreas does not produce sufficient insulin, type 1 diabetes will develop.
Unlike insulin, glucagon raises blood sugar levels. According to the Johns Hopkins University Sol Goldman Pancreatic Cancer Research Center, the combination of insulin and glucagon maintains the proper level of sugar in the blood.
The pancreas' second, exocrine function is to produce and release digestive fluids. After food enters the stomach, digestive enzymes called pancreatic juice travel through several small ducts to the main pancreatic duct and then to the bile duct, according to the Medical University of South Carolina’s Digestive Disease Center. The bile duct takes the juice to the gallbladder, where it mixes with bile to aid in digestion.
"The pancreas is located in the upper abdomen behind the stomach," Knowlton said. The right end of the pancreas is wide and called the head. From the head, the organ tapers to the left. The middle sections are called the neck and body, while the narrow end on the left side of the body is called the tail.
The Hume-Lee Transplant Center at Virginia Commonwealth University described the pancreas as "j-shaped." The portion of the pancreas called the uncinate process bends backward from the head and underneath the body, according to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.
Intense pancreatic pain is usually associated with acute pancreatitis. It can be hard to identify pancreas pain and evaluate pancreas diseases because the organ sits deep in the abdomen, according to The National Pancreas Association. Other signs that the pain may be pancreatic include jaundice, itchy skin and unexplained weight loss. If you are experiencing pancreas pain, consult your doctor.
The National Institutes of Health defines pancreatitis as inflammation of the pancreas, happening when "digestive enzymes start digesting the pancreas itself." It can be acute or chronic, but both forms should be taken seriously and may lead to additional health problems.
There are up to 23 cases of chronic pancreatitis per 100,000 people per year worldwide. In just the United States, it results in more than 122,000 outpatient visits and more than 56,000 hospitalizations per year, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
"Chronic pancreatitis is a persistent inflammation (greater than three weeks) of the pancreas that causes permanent damage," Knowlton said. The condition is often caused by "heavy, ongoing" alcohol consumption, but she added that there are other causes, including "those that cause acute pancreatitis attacks." Other causes may be cystic fibrosis, high levels of calcium or fat in the blood and autoimmune disorders.
Symptoms include upper abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, and oily stools. According to Peter Lee and Tyler Stevens, in an article for the Cleveland Clinic, "clinically apparent" oily stools (steatorrhea) do not appear until "90 percent of pancreatic function has been lost."
"Chronic pancreatitis requires dietary modifications, including a low-fat diet and cessation of alcohol [intake] and smoking," Knowlton said. Chronic pancreatitis does not heal and tends to worsen with time, and "treatment options are mostly for pain relief." She added that treatments "may include a pancreas stent or, for severe cases, surgery (either a lateral pancreaticojejunostomy, or a Whipple procedure)." Pancreatiocojejunostomies are designed to decrease pancreatic leakage while the Whipple procedure removes the head of the pancreas where, according to the Mayo Clinic, most tumors occur.
There may be a link between chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. According to the University of California Los Angeles Center for Pancreatic Diseases, "Recent studies reveal a 2-5 times increase in the incidence of pancreatic cancer in patients with chronic pancreatitis from a variety of causes."
"Acute pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas (lasting less than three weeks), that is most often caused by gallstones," said Knowlton. It usually comes on suddenly and disappears within a few days of treatment. In addition to gallstones, Knowlton said that causes "may include medications, high triglycerides, high calcium in the blood and high alcohol consumption."
Pancreas pain is the chief symptom of acute pancreatitis, according to Medscape. The pain is usually severe and sudden. It increases in severity until it becomes a constant ache. This pancreas pain is felt in the upper abdomen. The Mayo Clinic noted that the pain can radiate through to the back, and Knowlton pointed out that it might be worse after eating. Other symptoms of acute pancreatitis include nausea, vomiting, fever and diarrhea.
According to Knowlton, "This patient often looks acutely ill, and requires hospitalization (typically for three to five days), intravenous (IV) hydration, nothing by mouth (for bowel rest), pain medication, treatment of underlying conditions, and possibly a radiologic procedure called an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), which can more specifically target the problem." If the acute pancreatitis was caused by gallstones, doctors may recommend removing the gallbladder.
It is hard to diagnose pancreatic cancer early. The Mayo Clinic noted that symptoms typically don't occur until the cancer has advanced. Knowlton said, "Unfortunately, symptoms can be vague, but can include abdominal pain, jaundice, severe itching, weight-loss, nausea, vomiting, and digestive problems."
Making matters even more complicated is the pancreas' deep-in-the-abdomen location. The NIH pointed out that as a result, tumors cannot usually be felt by touch. Because of the difficulty of early diagnosis and the rapidity with which pancreatic cancer spreads, the prognosis is often poor.
Risk factors for pancreatic cancer include smoking, long-term diabetes and chronic pancreatitis, according to the National Cancer Institute.
According to the American Cancer Society, pancreatic cancer usually begins in the cells that produce pancreatic (digestive) juices or in the cells that line the ducts. In rare occasions, pancreatic cancer will begin in the cells that produce hormones.
According to the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, to diagnose pancreatic cancer, doctors typically conduct physical exams, blood tests, imaging tests, endoscopic ultrasounds and tests and biopsies. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and therapies targeted to attack cancer cells without harming normal cells.
When a person's pancreas isn't functioning properly or has to be removed, doctors may replace or supplement it with an artificial pancreas. These devices that automatically monitor blood glucose and provide the appropriate insulin doses are often called closed-loop systems, automated insulin delivery systems, or autonomous systems for glycemic control, according to the Food and Drug Administration.

With the advancement in technology, remote jobs have been growing. Internet and mobile devices allow an employee to communicate with headquarters without having to step foot into a physical location. Pinnacle Marketing Group has a group of remote employees working their magic across the nation. As amazing as this is, there are some guidelines which allow telecommuting to be possible.
Communication is one of the most important facets in keeping the confusion away. Communicate daily with employees on the go. Using Join Me or Skype can help with that communication and will ensure everyone stays on the same page, and any concerns you or your remote employees may have can be answered properly. It’s important for a remote employee to have a point of contact at the physical business locations. Assigning a support person who can answer questions quickly, send out requested materials, and help troubleshoot situations will help your employee be the best they can be while out on the road.
Having the right tools to help with remote training is essential. An employee manual, fliers, videos and infographics are just a few items you can supply your remote employees. Keeping those items updated and fresh is another good practice to maintain.
It can still be difficult for your employees who telecommute, so offering up encouragement and being open to feedback is just as important as communicating and having the right training tools. It’s easy to forget how important each of your employees are, which is why the exercise of letting someone know they are doing a stand-up job, no matter their position is a solid step in building a strong and unified team. With these guidelines, your employees will have a world of success available to learn and practice from. Pinnacle Marketing Group would like to thank our remote employees and congratulate them on their continued success.

Salt Lake City, UT, Jan. 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Investview Corporation (INVU) entered a definitive material agreement with Triton Funds, LP in a strategic financial arrangement that enables growth and expansion for our financial product education used predominantly by millennials.
“Our aspiration for the fund is to create a legacy and grow this beyond our imagination,” said Sam Yaffa, Triton Funds.
On December 29, 2018, Investview, Inc. entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement, a Registration Rights Agreement, and a Share Donation Agreement (the “Agreements”) with Triton Funds, LP, a Delaware Limited Partnership, a non-affiliate of the company. Under the terms of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, Triton is buying $1,000,000 worth of stock at a 15% discount to the market price based on the five day per share average post effectiveness of the S-1 Registration. The shares would be subject to certain limitations, including that Triton Funds LP could not purchase any shares that would result in it owning more than 4.9% of Investview common stock. Additionally, 3 million shares were donated to the fund Manager Triton Funds LLC further supporting their student initiatives which include learning materials, operational support and scholarship opportunities.
“We are approached by many investment bankers on a daily basis. When I received an email from Triton, I knew they were different and immediately contacted them. It was clear they shared our passion for changing the financial landscape for our youth for generations to come. Finally, a strategic financial partner who understood our core objective and global initiatives,” said Mario Romano, Investview, Director of Finance.
Investview views this as a strategic relationship since its products and services are primarily used by millennials who want a different future than their parents. They embrace technology and distrust traditional Wall Street finance. Investview, through its wholly owned subsidiary Kuvera LLC, provides financial education, research, and technology to individuals worldwide. The entire program is delivered electronically via mobile app and website.
"At Triton Funds we strive to invest in companies that pave way for the future, and Investview is doing just that. With their mission to make a quality financial education more accessible, supplemented with their global outreach efforts, Investview is taking steps towards advancing global financial literacy. We are excited to be working with a company that has a strong management team and shows prime signs of growth within an emerging industry,” added Arnold Nunez, Analyst at Triton Funds.
Since inception, the overwhelming majority of the Kuvera customer base is millennials. They seek to learn how to manage their own finances, save, reduce debt and invest in the world’s capital markets. Kuvera’s growth is spurred by this demographic and the company’s top distributors are under the age of 30.
“As a Senior, it has been frustrating dealing with traditional funding sources who do not understand the changing face of finance and various technology driven initiatives including crypto currency. The Triton team is representative of our vision for the future and an appropriate funding partner for our intention of providing financial fitness to individuals around the world,” said William Kosoff, Investview, Chief Financial Officer.

Happy, happy day it is FRIDAY!
It's been quite the stressful week for me so I'm happy to see it come to a close. Now for some relaxation and "me" time. Anyone else have a week like that? Sheesh! Pass me a glass of Chardonnay and put on a good movie. That's where I'll be more than likely this evening.
Now on to this outfit! I'll be honest with you all. When I slipped on this outfit, my face morphed into the heart eye emoji and I danced around my room to "You're The One That I Want" *oh, oh, oh* ;). Grease?! Anyone?! I felt like I had stepped right into the set with the star role of Sandy in this outfit. Who doesn't want to feel like that when they're stepping out for the weekend?! You bet ya I'll be rocking this look on Saturday night (weather permitting!).
This top is extremely flattering. Plus the "off the shoulder" feature is tight enough to keep it down throughout the night. I know I'm not the only one who has struggled to keep that kind of a top truly off my shoulder. No one wants to mess with things like that! The perfect top in my opinion. Especially for a girls night!
What do you all have on tap for this weekend?!

Some of the turnovers are largely based on the demographics of restaurant employees. Bureau of Labor Statistics stated that the hospitality industry employs more teenagers than any other industry. Many teenagers use restaurant jobs to get job experience to later move on to another career, affecting the turnover rate. In other cases, better opportunities at other restaurants can be a reason for the high turnover rate.
Although some factors can be out of an operator’s control, there are some areas that can be fine-tuned to improve job satisfaction. According to Investopedia, after factoring in the entire hiring process, hiring an hourly employee can cost close to $3,500! With this in mind, restaurant operators should put emphasis on one of their biggest investments – their employees.
We’ve put together a handy list of how to avoid restaurant turnover and boost retention to create a better work environment.
Staff members that don’t receive proper training are typically unhappier than ones that do. Lack of training can leave employees feeling unaccomplished and unsupported. Usually, their lack of training will end up costing your restaurant more than it would just to take the time to onboard the employee. Put a training program in place so that new hires feel successful in their role.
One of the key ingredients to a happy employee is work/life balance. No one likes to have to constantly reschedule plans because they found out they will be working tomorrow after all. Employees need advanced scheduling. You should be giving staff members at least two weeks’ notice of their work schedules so they have time to plan accordingly.
Occasionally working both a lunch and dinner shift can be a good time for restaurant staff to pick up some extra cash. However, when it becomes a frequent occurrence, it can be hard for your employees. Long double shifts are hard on the body, as well as on the mind. Exhaustion, mental fatigue, and overall body pain are common effects of working constant double shifts.
For non-table service restaurant staff, getting tips can be tough. Find ways to encourage tipping from customers so your employee can receive a little extra money for a job well done. Consider adding a tip line to your receipts or even a tip jar. Don’t be scared to get creative with your tip jars either! Catchy tip jars are far more effective than plain ones.
A surefire way to reduce turnover is to show employees you care. One of the first ways you can do this is by providing free meals or discounted meals to your staff. Other ways you can boost morale is to recognize achievements, choose an employee of the month, feedback surveys, and contests and/or giveaways.
This probably isn’t feasible 100% of the time, but occasionally allowing employees to choose their shifts is another great way to boost morale. Some shifts/days may work better for employees’ schedule outside of work or some may be more productive during certain shifts.
Restaurant owners hate to see employees quit, especially good ones. Conducting an exit interview is a great way to gather information about how employees felt about their time at your restaurant. Look for trends in employee concerns so that you can make adjustments in the future. Some employees might not feel comfortable being completely honest with a fellow restaurant employee. If you don’t have an HR department, you may have to look into hiring a third party to conduct the interview.
Some may be more comfortable with traditional restaurant solutions such as kitchen printers and paper tickets, but modern solutions tend to create a more efficient work environment. Ticket times will be faster, customers will be happier, and your FOH and BOH will be less chaotic, leading to a much more enjoyable workplace for your employees.
Reducing restaurant turnover is important, but the same goes for customers. If you like this blog article, you’ll love our piece on 7 restaurant management tips.

If you’re like most Americans, there’s a pretty good chance that you received at least one offer for a new low-cost credit card this month. While some of those offers look tempting, with rates as low as 6 percent and no annual fee, you may want to use caution before abandoning your present card (or cards). Asking the right questions will insure that you’re getting the best deal, one that won’t end up costing you more in the long run.
How long does the new rate last? If the offer isn’t for at least six months to a year, it’s not worth it. That’s because you’ll need at least that much time to pay down your balance at the new rate.
Does the introductory rate apply to new purchases as well as transferred balances? Many people assume when they transfer their balance to a new card that the low rate applies to any new purchases they make on the card. Usually card issuers offer the lower rate only on the transfer balance, and charge high rates on any new charges made to the card after the transfer. Be sure you know their policy before signing.
How high will the rate go when the trial period is over? Make sure that rate isn’t higher t han the one you’re already paying.
Is there an annual fee for the new card? Even though the interest rate may be low, the offer may include a ridiculously high annual fee. Ask the issuer if they’ll waive the annual fee; if not, wait for a better deal.
Is there a grace period for finance charges and how long is it? Ideal grace periods should be between 25 and 30 days before a charge appears on your account. But beware, some issuers begin charging interest expense the very day you use your card.
What does “pre-approved” mean? It may mean that the credit issuer will re-screen you after you sign, so if this is not disclosed in the offer, look elsewhere. Bad or soft spots in your credit history can be ample justification from a card issuer’s standpoint to bump you to higher rates.
What is the charge for late payments? Beware of cards that charge a penalty the very first day you’re late on a payment.
Will a late payment change the introductory rate? If you pay late, some card issuers will bump you to a higher penalty rate during the introductory period.
Take the time to learn the rules of the complex financial games you are playing (like using a credit card) by reading the fine print on the offer.
Remember, knowing the rules puts you on an even playing field with the credit card issuer. Don’t be satisfied with skimming over these rules. And don’t be satisfied with any credit issuer who can’t answer your questions fully.

The growth of corals skeletons and invertebrates shells is dependent on maintaining calcium levels in the saltwater aquarium.
Calcium reactors are used in the marine reef aquarium to keep calcium levels and alkalinity high enough for the health of corals. In addition to stony corals, many other invertebrates require readily available calcium carbonate in order to grow their shells. Calcium reactors also promote the growth of desirable coraline algae. Most aquarists shoot for their calcium levels to be in the of 400-450 ppm range with an alkalinity somewhere between 8-12 dKH. A properly functioning calcium reactor can automate the process of keeping calcium and alkalinity levels within these parameters.
Calcification, as the name implies, requires sufficient amounts of calcium in the water column. A calcium reactor achieves this by dissolving calcium carbonate media in a reaction chamber, supplying the system with calcium and carbonate. To dissolve the calcium carbonate, carbon dioxide is added to the water in the reactor. The carbon dioxide lowers the pH of the water in the reactor causing it to be more acidic. This more acidic water then dissolves the calcium carbonate and other minerals and trace elements. The dissolved solution then flows back into the system, increasing alkalinity.
Using a calcium reactor to maintain healthy calcium levels in the reef tank is relatively inexpensive when compared to other means of increasing calcium (consistent use of calcium buffers or supplements such as Kalkwasser). Yes, there is an initial large investment in the reactor itself (as well as the carbon dioxide bottle and regulator), but after that, most calcium reactors are relatively maintenance free. The aquarist simply needs to keep the carbon dioxide bottle filled and replace the calcareous media.
When using a calcium reactor, it is necessary to closely monitor the pH level in your aquarium. Some aquarists use a controller that will shut off the flow of carbon dioxide if the pH falls too drastically in the tank. The controller can also turn the carbon dioxide flow back on when the pH levels have rebounded.

A bold and contemporary variation of the iconic Rose Cut collection, Rose Cut Forever is the graceful reminder that love is a multitude of different facets, all to be cherished and embraced. It is reinforced by a graceful yet dramatic extension of the facets in the 18ct gold setting, each angled and polished to perfection. The addition of the asymmetric halo of micro-set diamonds that encompasses each piece symbolises the meaning of forever in the simplest of ways. A circle, with no beginning and no end.

Twenty-first Day: "I will fear no evil."
HE does not say," There shall not be any evil," but, "I shall not fear it."
It must have been because he knew that he had only to do with the shadow of death, for death in its substance had been removed and only its shadow remained.
"Some one has said that where there is a shadow there must be a light somewhere, and so there is. Death stands by the side of the highway in which we have to travel, and the light of heaven shining upon him throws a shadow across our path. Let us then rejoice that there is a light beyond. Nobody is afraid of a shadow, for a shadow cannot stop a man's pathway even for a moment. The shadow of a dog cannot bite; the shadow of a sword cannot kill; the shadow of death cannot destroy us." Why therefore should we be afraid?
"There is no fear in love. Perfect love casteth out fear. Nothing else can do it. You may argue against fear. You may deride it. You may try and shame it. But all will be in vain. If you would master it, you must expel it by the trust which is born of love. A man comes home fain, and famished. His nature craves for food; but as he enters into his house, he learns that his child suddenly stricken with fever is lying at the point of death, and in a moment he has forgotten his hunger in the paroxysm of love and grief with which he bends over the tiny feverish form, and hastens to moisten the dry lips. Thus the lower passions are subdued in the soul by the higher and so it happens that the most timid spirit which is conscious of the presence of the good Shepherd can sing as it passes onward through the gloom, and its notes vibrate with the buoyancy of a courage which cannot flinch or falter."
1. If you are living where God intended you should, if this valley of shadows be accepted as a present-day experience, then Christ will be between you and every ill.
3. Evil cannot separate you from him at any trifle. The table on which was placed the show-bread of the tabernacle had about the bread a golden band, and a hand's breadth away was a second band; so that, if any pieces fell away, it must be over these two golden bands, which was impossible. Round about us are the two strong arms of God; and, whether the psalm be present or future, I can say, "I will fear no evil."

PUMA kicks off 2017 with the launch of the IGNITE Limitless, the perfect crossover between fashion and performance. With a sleek modern upper design combined with a base that features performance-based technology, the IGNITE Limitless is breaching into the crossover territory that PUMA began entering this past year with the launch of the IGNITE evoKNIT. There are two styles of the IGNITE Limitless: the Reptile with leather hints, as well as the Core with a predominantly neoprene upper.
The upper on the IGNITE Limitless Reptile consists of four main components: the luxury reptile-embossed leather, a branded forefoot strap, a clam-shell construction of stretchy Ariaprene, and the mid-foot cage made of Kurim. The reptile-embossed leather covers the entire toe-box, as well as along the rear heel clip, that allows the shoes to have a stylish streetwear-vibe.
The IGNITE Limitless provides premium cushioning with the full-length IGNITE foam embedded in the moulded EVA midsole. Not only does this provide the comfort that is vital in today’s footwear, it still provides enough responsiveness as well as remaining lightweight. The IGNITE Limitless is finished with a gum-coloured crystal rubber outsole pods which provides full traction, as well as great aesthetics.
The PUMA IGNITE Limitless Reptile is available now at PUMA Lab powered by Foot Locker locations, PUMA.ca, FootLocker.ca, as well as select retailers, in three colourways: Burnt Olive, Whisper White, and PUMA Black.
Thank you again to the good folks over at PUMA. Be sure to go pick up your pair now!

The value of the private construction industry as a percentage of gross domestic product increased in 30 states and decreased in only six in 2015, according to a report released this week by Associated Builders and Contractors. Nationally, construction’s direct contribution to GDP increased by 0.1 percentage points from 2014 to 2015 to 3.9 percent.
Despite the energy slump, construction accounted for the highest percentage of state GDP in North Dakota at 7.6 percent in 2015, down from 7.7 percent in 2014. Hawaii’s construction industry made the second largest contribution to state GDP at 5.9 percent, with an increase of 0.5 percentage points from 2014, the largest year-over-year improvement of any state.
Six states—Arizona, North Dakota, Mississippi, Oregon, West Virginia and Wyoming—saw a decrease in construction’s percentage of GDP from 2014, ABC reported. The states with the lowest share of construction in their GDP were New York and Connecticut, both at 3.1 percent for the third year in a row.

Grant Avritt (‘10) is just starting his career in the medical field, but the educational route he took to get there might surprise some. During his time in MCPS and beyond, he found value in studying an array of topics. Although he now specializes in anesthesiology, he certainly wasn’t put to sleep by his classes in MCPS as he recalls the importance of a diverse public education experience.
Following graduation, Grant attended Vanderbilt University where, despite knowing that his career aspirations were in the medical field, he majored in history with a minor in philosophy. He credits his passion for history to the Advanced Placement classes he took at Marion County High School.
Grant also took a variety of science classes while at Vanderbilt to better prepare himself for medical school.
That also included studying abroad in London and participating in service trips.
After Vanderbilt, Grant applied and was accepted into the University of Kentucky’s medical school where he graduated last year.
Grant is now finishing up his first year of residency focusing on anesthesiology. However, his future plans are still somewhat up in the air.
Much like his college experience, Grant noted a challenging yet rewarding experience studying a variety of disciplines among his fondest memories from MCPS.
But his academic experience in MCPS wasn’t limited to just one area.
Also among those experiences, Grant was the captain of the academic team, as well as being heavily involved in BETA club and National Honor Society.
Grant says that his most important piece of advice for current students is to be conscious of the bigger picture within the world of education.
