We feel like we don’t really need to rehash this another time. The Oscars are sometimes wrong, so we went ahead and made them right. Go here, here, here, here or here for the first five segments of this feature. Once again, the years listed are for the year the ceremony took place, not the year the winning film was released. And the number in the parentheses after each name is just the IMDB user rating, which is one of many factors we take into consideration when doling out the final prizes.

So your company finally has a modern, easy-to-navigate responsive website designed by Adventure Web. That’s great! With a functional and attractive website that looks just as good on your smartphone or tablet as it does on your computer, the sky is the limit when it comes to the marketing opportunities available to you. With every new website we design, we suggest investing in a blogging package as well. Not only does blogging provide your customers and business partners with interesting and useful information, it can add huge amounts of traffic to your website.
How Does Blogging Work to Increase My Website’s Traffic?
Determine the key words that will bring people to your website.
For example, if you have a pet grooming business in Baltimore, you might have keywords like dog grooming, nail trimming, teeth brushing, dog bathing, Baltimore dog grooming services – the list goes on and on. These are the words people will be searching for to find your business.
Write blogs with these keywords!
You want content on your website that is not only relevant to your business, but also well-written and informative. For your dog grooming business, you might write a blog called “Styling Tips for Schnauzers!” for example.
At Adventure Web, we recommend blogging a minimum of once per week. For best results, blogging two or three times per week is advised. The more landing pages and keywords you have, the higher your website will show up on a Google search, and the more likely people will be to come to your website.
Promote your blogs on social media!
Informative and helpful blog posts are a great way to draw traffic to your site as well. If it’s something people are interested in reading about, they will come. Our talented team of bloggers and social media coordinators aggregates each and every blog post to social media pages such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, and Pinterest, maximizing the chance someone will see it and click on it.

1 - "Flee for safety, you children of Benjamin, out of the middle of Jerusalem! Blow the trumpet in Tekoa and raise up a signal on Beth Haccherem, for evil looks out from the north with a great destruction.
2 - I will cut off the beautiful and delicate one, the daughter of Zion.
3 - Shepherds with their flocks will come to her. They will pitch their tents against her all around. They will feed everyone in his place."
4 - "Prepare war against her! Arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe to us! For the day declines, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
5 - Arise, and let us go up by night, and let us destroy her palaces."
6 - For the LORD of Hosts said, "Cut down trees, and cast up a mound against Jerusalem. This is the city to be visited. She is wholly oppression within herself.
7 - As a well produces its waters, so she produces her wickedness. Violence and destruction is heard in her. Sickness and woundes are continually before me.
8 - Be instructed, Jerusalem, lest my soul be alienated from you; lest I make you a desolation, an uninhabited land."
9 - The LORD of Armies says, "They will thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel like a vine. Turn again your hand as a grape gatherer into the baskets."
10 - To whom should I speak and testify, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they can't listen. Behold, The LORD's word has become a reproach to them. They have no delight in it.
11 - Therefore I am full of The LORD's wrath. I am weary with holding it in."Pour it out on the children in the street,and on the assembly of young men together;for even the husband with the wife will be taken,the aged with him who is full of days.
12 - Their houses will be turned to others,their fields and their wives together;for I will stretch out my hand on the inhabitants of the land, says The LORD."
13 - "For from their least even to their greatest, everyone is given to covetousness.From the prophet even to the priest, everyone deals falsely.
14 - They have healed also the hurt of my people superficially,saying, 'Peace, peace!' when there is no peace.
15 - Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?No, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush.Therefore they will fall among those who fall.When I visit them, they will be cast down," says The LORD.
18 - Therefore hear, you nations, and know, congregation, what is among them.
19 - Hear, earth! Behold, I will bring evil on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not listened to my words; and as for my law, they have rejected it.
20 - To what purpose does frankincense from Sheba come to me, and the sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, and your sacrifices are not pleasing to me."
21 - Therefore the LORD says, "Behold, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people. The fathers and the sons together will stumble against them. The neighbor and his friend will perish."
22 - The LORD says, "Behold, a people comes from the north country. A great nation will be stirred up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
23 - They take hold of bow and spear. They are cruel, and have no mercy. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride on horses, everyone set in array, as a man to the battle, against you, daughter of Zion."
24 - We have heard its report. Our hands become feeble. Anguish has taken hold of us, and pains as of a woman in labor.
25 - Don't go out into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and terror are on every side.
26 - Daughter of my people, clothe yourself with sackcloth, and wallow in ashes! Mourn, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation, for the destroyer will suddenly come on us.
27 - "I have made you a tester of metals and a fortress among my people, that you may know and try their way.
28 - They are all grievous rebels, going around to slander. They are brass and iron. All of them deal corruptly.
29 - The bellows blow fiercely. The lead is consumed in the fire. In vain they go on refining, for the wicked are not plucked away.
30 - Men will call them rejected silver, because the LORD has rejected them."

An internal gear pump consists of an inner rotor and an outer rotor. Both inner and outer rotors rotate in the same direction.
Because the number of teeth and the center of each are different, the volume of the gap between the rotors varies. As a result the pump intakes and discharges liquid. The simple structure allows for a compact design.
The internal gear pump is able to feed a high viscous liquid and take a high pressure. Feeding of lubricating oil or hydraulic oil is a typical application. In addition to regular products, there are WO versions to spray or transfer bunker oil an PL versions to transfer chemical materials such as isocyanate.
The 3FA pump is for large capacity and mid pressure hydraulic and lubrication applications. Since this pump is relatively small, there are many cases that the pump is integrated into a machine. The rotation direction is clockwise, opposite to types 1A, 1HG and 2A.

Description: In this experiment, by Derek Muller at Veritasium, a copper wire and fishing string are attached to weights and placed over a block of ice. An increase in pressure causes the ices to melt below the wire and freeze after. The difference in behavior of the wire and the string are related to the material since metal is a better thermal conductor of heat. This phenomenon can be used in a unit on the particle model and state change. It can also be used to compare the thermal conductivity of different materials.
Description: An Earthship is a passive solar house that is designed to be off the electrical grid. It is generally constructed with natural and recycled materials. Much of the structure of the house is made with recycled tires that are filled with dirt. Thermal mass from the dirt, solar energy from the Sun, and cross-ventilation are used to keep the temperature within the house in a comfortable zone. This phenomenon can be used study thermal energy transfer, energy conservation, and human sustainability.
Description: As ocean water freezes into solid ice the remaining saltwater forms into icy "stalactites" that descend into the ocean. This can be used as a phenomenon in an elementary class to show changes in state. In middle and high school the chemistry can be explored more deeply.

Virophages are small DNA viruses of unicellular eukaryotes that replicate only during a coinfection with a giant virus. They propagate at the expense of the giant virus using its cytosolic reproduction and assembly machinery. Virophages encode about 20 genes including two capsid proteins, a protease that assists maturation and a FtsK-HerA type ATPase that supposedly is responsible for ATP dependent DNA transport into the assembled capsid.
The successful candidates will characterize capsid assembly & processing and active DNA transport of the Virophage. The assembly/-disassembly pathway will be characterized with spectroscopic, kinetic and structural methods with the aim to better understand the hierarchy and pathway of supramolecular organisation of capsid structure and what determines the exact size of assembled particles in the absence of a molecular ruler.
Key to addressing these questions is the development and application of fluorescence based markers for FRET and Fluorescence Microscopy assays.

The AMS’s campaign to boycott UBC Food Services faces opposition from the workers’ union, CUPE 116.
In response to international tuition hikes, the AMS recently passed three motions. One of these mandated the AMS to campaign for students to boycott UBC Food Services, a profit-based arm of the university. This motion inspired an information campaign through which the AMS hopes to encourage students to think more about where they spend their discretionary income.
“It’s planting a seed of information in students’ heads about what businesses on campus do to contribute to the university’s bottom line,” said AMS President Aaron Bailey.
Jenna Omassi, AMS VP Academic and University Affairs, acknowledged that it is not possible for all students to avoid using UBC Food Services, especially first years with meal plans.
The campaign was quickly met with criticism. CUPE 116, the workers’ union representing nearly 2,000 support staff on campus, opposes this campaign. The union says that the campaign risks negatively affecting people working for UBC Food Services, especially students working part time.
“If there is a reduction of clientele, the first people it is going to affect are the students on campus who work [at UBC Food Services] because they are not working under a collective agreement. They work flexible hours … so if they see a reduction in the need for service, they’ll cut them,” said CUPE 116 President Colleen Garbe.
The union was also upset that the AMS did not communicate their plans to boycott UBC Food Services directly to CUPE 116. Union VP Dave Lance explains that they only found out about the motion and intended campaign when they read the article regarding the boycott in The Ubyssey.
“We work with the AMS on campus, we negotiate collective agreements on behalf of the students on campus, we have the Graduate Students Society, we have the Aquatics Centre ... so we were a little taken back when this happened without any kind of communication with the union on campus,” said Garbe.
In response to CUPE 116’s concerns, the AMS says that, from their perspective, it does not seem like workers will be impacted by the three-week campaign.
Bailey also noted that this campaign cannot be halted due to AMS bylaws.
The AMS also intends to open — and keep open — communication between them and the union both through this campaign and in their future plans.
While CUPE 116 appreciates the AMS’s promise of continued communication, they still do not understand the need or support the boycott of UBC Food Services.
“I know they’re trying to bring attention to the raising of the tuition ... we totally understand that and support their efforts to try and reduce the hikes, but we don’t think this is the proper way to go,” said Garbe.

A few days ago The Guardian newspaper dropped the fantastically produced advert (which you can see above) by BBH for their new Open Journalism campaign. It’s fantastic play on the fairy tale of the Three Little Pigs and it shows the way that the general public now reacts to breaking news. It’s been a little while for the ‘old’ media to realise but Twitter could be their best friend for sourcing news and opinion.
The Guardian as well as the Daily Mail (the latter of which is now the top online newspaper in the world having overtaking the New York Times) have both taken to the web in spectacular form with both reporting massive increases in readership online nearly securing a life after print. Like it says in the press release for the film “The newspaper is moving beyond a newspaper” Old media has to embrace new media with open arms otherwise they will likely die out soon.
That said though, this Open Journalism campaign is very bold move for the Guardian as they will be sourcing their news from Social Media sites as well as their own reporters to gain what they call ‘the whole picture’. Good examples of this in action as said by Guardian editor Alan Rusbridger would be when the UK government released 400,000 documents in the wake of the MP Expenses scandal, the Guardian built a widget on their site and let more than 20,000 of their readers scan through the documents to see if they could find anything news worthy.
The campaign is built on the idea that no single newspaper can be the sole bringer of truth and news in this day and age and opening it up to the general public can only be good right?
Well we’ll see, it seems to work with the Guardian and has been for a while now but comment sections on big websites can be notoriously… unforgiving. BBC’s Have Your Say section and comments under pretty much any video on YouTube turning into all out war with insults being thrown about left right and centre.
It’s a shift of focus that is evident in the graphic at the end with ‘web’ coming before ‘print’.
The video itself was masterfully directed by TV Commercial director Ringan Ledwidge of Rattling Stick and edited by Rich Orrick of Work. It plays and feels exactly like a montage sequence from a feature film and with it’s original twist on a well known fairy tale is very engaging.

While this post is titled “Thoughts of Virtualizaiton”, the applications described can be easily applied to non-VM type installations.
Virtualization is a wonderful tool, it enables rapid growth and rapid deployment of new servers and services. However, just like any other platform that tends to grow across the time line, it poses the same annoying issue of managing a large system, especially when dealing with Asterisk based installations.
Let us imagine the following scenario: A Calling Card company while utilizes 8 different Asterisk application servers, are utilizing a single Database servers cluster and are receiving inbound calls from various sources and load balanced across all Asterisk application servers. What I’ve described above is more or less the practice most (if not) all calling card operators deploy. No matter if the usage is A2Billing, MOR, ASTBILL – the methodology is more or less the same.
SSH to all your Asterisk servers.
Tile all consoles on your desktop.
Start the test – and hope your eyes are fast enough to capture the right gateway.
Well, this is the normal practice with most people – but I have to admit it’s kind of annoying. Now, let’s imagine that we are now building our system from scratch, we’re not using A2Billing or any of the other Open Source products, we simply build our own application framework. So, what do we need to do in order to keep track of our system correctly?
Consolidate the messages coming from each of your gateways to a single logging facility. The best track would be to utilize some form of Syslog facility. For example, all the scripts and network services that I develop utilize a clear and concise interface to syslog. I usually re-direct the syslog facility that I use to an external server, thus, I get all the logs on a single syslog file system.
If you are worried about I/O issues on the syslog server, you can always create a “syslog-proxy” using tools such as memcached or others.
While the syslog facility will include your generating hostname, when duplication VM’s, this would be a really good practice.
Once your logs are consolidated to a single environment, it should be fairly simple for you to go about and analyse these in a pre-defined routine. There is little to gain from analysing the logs on-the-fly, but analysing it every 5/10/15 minutes will prove worthwhile.
Auditing is good – as long as you keep a clear view of what you audit and what you don’t. Audit key points in your application to a database can save you a whole lot of time of debugging – just make sure your audit is clear.
Keep the above in mind and you should be just fine creating any scale of platform.

A fever is a high temperature. As a general rule, a temperature of 38C (100.4F) or above is a fever.
As a parent it can be extremely worrying if your child has a high temperature. But it's very common and often clears up by itself.
Most fevers are caused by infections. When the body temperature goes up it makes it harder for the virus or bacteria to survive. They are also a common side effect of vaccinations.
If your child is well, playful, eating and drinking there is usually no need to see a doctor.
Has other signs of being unwell, such as persistent vomiting, refusal to feed, floppiness or drowsiness, breathlessness, rashes or is having a seizure.
If your child has a fever, it's important to keep them hydrated by giving them plenty of cool water to drink.
Babies should be given plenty of liquids, such as breast milk or formula. Even if your child isn't thirsty, try to get them to drink little and often to keep their fluid levels up.
If the environment is warm, you could help to your child to stay at a comfortable temperature by covering them with a lightweight sheet or opening a window.
However, they should still be appropriately dressed for their surroundings and sponging your child with cool water is no longer recommended to reduce a fever.
If your child is distressed then some child paracetamol or ibuprofen can help bring down their temperature.

As one of the central features of St Andrews, the Town Hall is a focal point for community meetings, concerts, and ceilidhs. Yet, on this occasion, the room was not home to a set of local officials or exuberant dance partners. As I walked into the well-lit space I found myself surrounded instead by over two hundred types of wine, beer, gin, and a whole manner of other concoctions.
Welcome to the Luvians Wine Fair.
Asking one of the experts, I was interested to find that the presence of inexperienced wine drinkers doesn’t detract from the unique nature of the selection. Particularly interesting was some delicious wine made using the Bacchus grape; this enthralled the wine veterans as they swilled their glasses with effortless grace. The fair is an event for all creeds, it would seem.
Despite some of the more dramatic characters, the room largely consisted of nodding heads and smiles as, for the meagre price of £15, occupants were able to drink bottles that usually cost up to sixty. Combined with a 10% discount on all purchases, this event is fantastic news for the University wine tasting society, for whom such a selection is a dream come true.
Three hours later and I’m trading wooden floors for stone cobbles as I walk out onto the street. I leave behind me an opportunity for the whole town to experience an unprecedented range of different drinks, an opportunity that luckily seems to have been wholeheartedly taken by students and locals alike. Who says alcohol has to cause anti-social behaviour?

The team tackles the conditions faced by British farmers in 1943, when food imports slumped to their lowest level during the war. The government feared a crisis and Britain's farmers were challenged with somehow increasing food production yet again. There were renewed shortages of animal feed so Alex and Peter use some clever 1940s technology to produce a hay crop from grass in the church yard. Ruth enlists some children to help collect herbs that were needed to make medicines during the war and discovers the methods women used to look good despite the restrictions of rationing. While Peter is getting to grips with a vintage hay baling machine, Ruth and Alex attend a party at the village hall where they experience a new dance phenomenon brought to Britain by African-American GIs, the jive.

On Friday 3 June 2016 the EFTA Court held its annual Spring Conference on the subject „The EFTA Court as a European Single Market Court”. Some 140 participants, amongst them members of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the European Court of Human Rights, the EFTA States’ Supreme Courts, government representatives, practitioners and academics, gathered to discuss topics President Baudenbacher referred to in his opening speech as the “beef” of EEA law. In the morning session, Judge Páll Hreinsson elaborated on „The Key Differences with regard to the Scope of the Fundamental Freedoms in the EU and the EEA“. Dr. Romina Polley, partner at the law firm Clearly Gottlieb, shared her insights by elucidating the role of the EFTA Court as a European single market court in the field of competition law. The afternoon session was commenced by Carsten Zatschler, Director of ESA’s Directorate of Legal and Executive Affairs, who gave a vivid talk on State aid law. Prof. Jeffrey Golden, Chairman of P.R.I.M.E. Finance Foundation, assessed the “The Role of Courts in a Systemic Crisis”, and Prof. Catherine Barnard provided the audience with her insightful views on “Social Policy and the EU referendum in the UK”. The sessions were moderated by the EFTA Court’s legal secretaries Jørgen Reinholdtsen, Marie Cournot, Dag Sørlie Lund and Philipp Speitler.

I’ve known Greg for years. Everybody knows Greg. He’s a photographer and works on shows. He’s handsome, warm, fun, and talented. Models love him and celebrities kiss him on the cheek, but none of these things seems to really affect him. No matter what happens, he’s always relaxed.
Last time I saw him, we were chatting at the end of a show and he began to talk to me about his life on the farm and, suddenly, everything was clear. For a few years, Greg has split his life between fashion and farm. In fact, not far from the life of my friend Laura Ferrara, and just as inspiring!
Can you tell me a bit about your fashion photography career?
My father was in the fashion business and one day asked if I wanted to go to a fashion show. Of course I said yes and, to keep me out of the way, they gave me a camera and told me to, “go follow Roxanne” (Roxanne Lowit). She is a legend and this was in the late 80s, so all the supermodels were there and it was probably the best place a kid from NY could ever imagine to be: backstage hanging out with Elle Macpherson, Cindy Crawford, Christy and Linda. I was a happy guy!
I’d been bitten by the photo bug, and was really shooting everything I could. My school saw I was shooting these girls and got me to work for the newspaper, so I had free film. I was shooting about, and some smaller journal magazines picked up my work. It was pretty great. I continued passively to shoot through university and, when I got out, I turned down an ad job and started assisting a photographer I met at a friend’s party. That lasted for 5 years and then, when an editor asked if I would come shoot for their magazine, I decided to leave and do my own work. While I was doing some editorial and smaller ad work, I became most know for my backstage at Style.com and the Model Morphosis in The New York Times. Now, as the fashion shows are generally becoming uninteresting for a variety of reasons, i am looking again to other areas of fashion and other aspects of photography (food and farming).
And you grew up in the suburbs just north of New York. How has the city been an influence in the direction of your lifestyle and a source of inspiration for your path to photography?
It was the really the best of both worlds, to have the excitement of the city so close to the safety of the suburbs. I can’t say that I’m particularly interested in going back to the suburban lifestyle, but it has allowed me to appreciate the beauty of being away from the city. I’m a little further out of town now but growing up in and out of the city has stuck with me. I love being on the farm, but I also love to pop back into the city for work or take a day or two with friends.
You have spent a long time right smack, bang in the middle of the fashion industry, shooting backstage at the world’s biggest shows. What has that been like?
It’s been great and still is great! I’ve seen a lot of incredible things, worked with a lot of great, creative people, and have seen both the fashion and photo industries change in a way no one could have predicted. Sometimes you ask what can possibly come next, and then you somehow find it or are a witness to it. Either way, there is always something new. You think you’ve seen or heard it all, but something always comes up and you’re like, “that was pretty cool,” and you take it from there.
Then, in 2010, what happened?
Burned out may be a little harsh, but I definitely needed a break. I was coming off a long few months of work that finished with a month of fashion shows. You can work every day and be fine, but do 30 days of fashion shows and your head starts hurting really bad. It’s one thing being on set and working together to make an image or story look great, and it’s another thing to be backstage with 50 different people, four or five times a day – and through much of that you’re trying to capture images. It’s mentally and physically exhausting. I mean, the excitement is like no other but, when you can’t remember taking the picture, it loses that magic. I didn’t like that.
So at the end of that season, I came home physically and mentally drained, finished up my deadlines and left town. I didn’t know I would end up at the farm. It was just an opportunity that presented itself.
Was there a particular moment you remember thinking “I think a farm is a great idea!,” or was this a dream in the pipeline for years?
It was all a bit of chance, actually. A friend working at the farm was pregnant. When I told her she shouldn’t be working so much and that I could help, her eyes sort of popped out of her head as she nodded in agreement. I started the next day and loved it. It wasn’t easy work, but it was something totally new for me and I just took to it. That was five years ago and, now, I’m planning around my experiences there and plotting where it may take me.
Can you describe what your responsibilities on the farm are?
I’m a farmer. I plant seeds, pull weeds, and harvest crops. I also worry about bugs and when it will rain.
What was the transition like, from spending all of your time in the city to spending much of it on a farm?
Let me tell you, it’s a very easy transition. You feel a weight lift almost immediately. Suddenly, there’s a little more time for everything. Maybe because there is less to do but, for me at least, it was much easier to focus and enjoy life instead of constantly feeling the need to be one place or another, or constantly position myself here or there. It just felt right, so there was really no question.
It’s almost like you live a double life. Is this the ultimate balance, or do you sometimes find it difficult to adapt from a fashion shoot to farm life?
It is ultimate! They of course have their differences, but they both get you out of bed early and keep you busy all day long – there are just different tasks in between those bells. It’s nice to be able to mix up the two. Maybe it’s a little hard to leave the farm for the city, but they both complement the other.
Little this, little that… But I’m dedicated to both the same.
Do you ever feel like you have to shake off your farm persona when you arrive at a shoot, or vice versa?
No, I think you are who you are and that’s what makes working with lots of different people great. It is funny, though; my fashion friends are always curious about the farm. The farm people, well they’re happy when I’m back in the field.
How has the slow pace, the surrounds of nature, working on the land affected, your state of mind and your outlook on life?
I feel happier and healthier, and not too bothered about the little things anymore.
It was a big shift, but what has been the most rewarding part of it all?
And the most difficult thing you had to overcome?
You now have an agricultural column in The New York Times, ‘A Chef in the Field’. Can you tell us what it’s about?
‘A Chef in the Field‘ came out from us having lunch in the barn early one spring, just trying to put a meal together with whatever we could scrounge out of the field. It’s funny with the whole farm-to-table movement happening. Everybody loves going to the market and everyone seems to know their farmer, but something is missing from that exchange. People still don’t know where their food comes from or, more specifically, what their food looks like in the ground. There is still a disconnect. ‘A Chef in the Field’ wants people to be able to trace their food better or at least be more aware about where their food comes from and to eat seasonally. We also want to demystify some vegetables and help people introduce more variety into their lives. To help this along, we take a chef for each piece to a farm and create a recipe around what is fresh and available for that time of year.
What has it been like to bring these two passions of your life together?
It has been such a great surprise, to love two things so much and have them work together in such a perfect way. I couldn’t ask for anything better.
We’ve started noticing more and more people making the change, and embracing a simpler life. Why do you think that is?
I think people are tired of fighting for things that shouldn’t be a fight and realizing that it is just better to do things simpler. Why complicate life and create difficulties, why put yourself in a position to get frustrated? Work with people you enjoy, and enjoy working. Keep the conversation open. So long as you’re not hurting anyone, do more things for you. Keep things moving and keep things happy.
Would you take any of it back? Ever return to your old life and give up the farm?
And your best advice for someone who is thinking about changing their life in a big way, like you did?
There’s no reason not to. Take the step – you’ll be much happier that you did, even if you go back.
Je trouve cette expérience très intéressante car elle casse les clichés et montre que l’on ne se résume pas à une seule chose, que chacun d’entre nous est unique et complexe.
Very inspiring interview. And the picture with the dog is amazing!!
This life seems like a dream- very inspiring! Thanks for sharing this, Garance.
I think this is one of the most enviable life that can exist! It is a perfect mixed one side we live the excitement of New York, fashion, photography, things that may seem futile but so beautiful. And on the other one, it relaxes and focuses on the real values. I think I would like that kind of life. These are two things that fascinates me, nature and art. I didn’t think it could be possible to mix the both.
Very inspiring! I got into gardening this year, and, surprisingly, I haven’t been happier. Planting flowers in the fall, and then looking forward to beautiful, full of flowers, Spring! Nature is very therapeutic, much more than shopping!
This article really struck a cord with me! “Ultimate” is how Greg describes his dual life and I tend to agree. I am an ER physician and have always loved to paint and dreamed of doing something with it. Two years ago I started printing scarves with my artwork and I have to say it has made me so happy. I have learnt to appreciate both worlds and am at a much better and happier place in my life. Bravo Greg! Live your dream.
I am in love with this dual lifestyle. These stories inspire me to bite the bullet, follow my passion and seek out simple happiness. Thank you for this.
Pas la moindre trace de terre, de boue, pas un seul grain de poussière sur les godillots du fermier ou les roues du tracteur briqué, lustré et qui étincelle. Tu m’étonnes qu’il aime la ferme le photographe de mode.
What a wonderful interview! I am envious…perhaps I can find some similar balance when I retire, since I intend to stay quite active. I have less than 2 years to find something new to occupy my time!
Hard work outdoors is soul cleansing, what a lovely interview! I have struggled my whole life with the opposing pull of loving the outdoors and loving fashion. I’m still trying to find the balance. Nature feeds my creativity and fashion is a constant force I cannot hide from. Joining them is my life’s work. Thank you for sharing such real insight and worth.
wow….very inspiring…really makes you think…..
Oui, merci pour cette interview ! Comme quoi il est possible pour chacun de se modeler une vie sur-mesure. Ca fait du bien de lire ça !
Very inspiring indeed! I wonder if eventually he will just stay on the farm and not miss the fashion world….
Love love love love love love love love love….
One of my favourite interviews so far! Why can’t you have it all, the excitement of the city and the beauty of nature! A great read!
Garance. Thank-you, thank-you for the wonderful story and photo’s. I also have large organic gardens, fruit trees, a dog and design silk scarves and have a love for the fashion industry. The story put a smile on my face and a tear in my eye. Farming, color, weaving, fabric, design, production, all begin with nature, are crafted and expressed by the human in it’s complexity, and ultimately returns to nature in it’s simplicity. All, beautifully crafted. Well done!
Merci pour cette interview… Moi qui songe de plus en plus à quitter Paris pour je ne sais pas où… Pas une grande ville de province mais plutôt la campagne. Genre la Corse ! je vais réfléchir à son conseil de sauter le pas. Après tout c’est vrai que rien n’est irréversible.
Very intriguing fellow, would be interested to know what his zodiac sign is…. ? Is he a Gemini?
J’ai beaucoup aime cette interview. Un peu mon reve de vivre a la campagne mais pas trop loin d’une ville ou il se passe des choses interessantes.
Loved this piece! It’s so down to earth and yet simultaneously so romantic. This idea of balance in one’s life and routine is key. Seeing it shared here in a “real world” way is inspiring and a good reminder that a breath of fresh air (literally) is so necessary to happiness and health, as in finding what works for you. Beautiful story – thanks for sharing!
It shows that life can be multiple we can be many different things at the same time and one nourish the other ….
love the parallels of the pictures.
Il en faudrait encore plein !
Very inspiring! For me nature and the city life in a balanced form is the perfect recipe of living. Thank you, Garance. Beautiful interview.
Interview passionnante d’une personne passionnée !
Il est très inspirant et j’aime beaucoup sa simplicité !
One of the best Career interview so far on your blog Garance! His story is so inspiring.. Is it possible to know the list of the chefs / restaurants he is working with in New York?
Farming, when your financial livelihood depends on it, can be backbreaking and very unpredictable work. I enjoy reading these types of articles on the city slicker who goes back to the earth. But I also view them as a kind of a romanticized fantasy that is probably far from most farmers’ reality.
I do agree with Sanaz !
These are beautiful contrasts. I too subscribe to a life of balance and it would be completely normal to see me at the fanciest event or to see me enjoying a weekend at a farm or even going on a picnic out in the middle of nowhere. Creativity and life thrive on these varied experiences and interests and they can influence and affect one another in the most unusual and surprising ways.

Today’s publication is related to one of the supermarkets that I use to the weekly shopping. This is Carrefour supermarket, and I find it interesting to know how they are organized internally to carry out a good job and provide good service.
Carrefour originated from France, it is an international retailer that is the worlds second-largest and the largest in Europe, and it is a leader in the industry.
In the following image, we can see the flow of information processes of Carrefour.
In adition, they move to “river and rail” transport to reduce truck mileage and safeguard the environment. Furthermore, they minimize pallets size for effective inventory management.
ERP systems implemented by Carrefour backed by EDS.
Generix is the main Supply Chain Software provider. Integration of 3PL and logistics capabilities of Carrefour and suppliers.
Warehose management system provided by generix.
In the future, Carrefour will try to use green logistics technologies and will try to develop more efficient systems.
Last day I went to the Hospital de la Ribera to visit a familiar, so I realized that in that floor there was more logistics than I could imagine. My doubts about how the staff (nurses, doctors, nursing assistant…) can handle and organize the materials and medicines that each patient will need, when I finished I had more clearly. Directly, I took some photos about storages and transportation modes in the floor.
In each floor there are two storages (Magatzem 1 and Magatzem 2) where they keep the boxes in shelves. As we can see in the photo, the shelf is divided in five shelves (five heights). Not only they store the boxes with medicines and materials in these storages, they also include the room necessities including the clothes for the patients, bathroom stuff and bed stuff.
To guarantee a direct access for these materials (medicines, tools and materials that they need to treat the patients) they transport from the storage to offices. In each floor there are two offices, as we can see in the photo below, and next to these offices, there is a huge shelf, very close for the employees, and is divided with several departments. Inside of each department is deposited the specific material including a label outside with the name.
In reference to transport the medicines and materials that each patient need, they have a kind of cart, which we also can see in the photo, with numbered departments for each room (Each room has a number). They only have to revise what medicines will need each patient in data base and put it in the material cart. So, the nurses only have to load one time with the required medicines. Moreover, they have a registered datasheets that they can consult and take some notes while they visit the patients. Finally, they can start for the first room until the last one, without come back until their office to bring for each patient the medicines that they will need.
To sum up, seeing the photos could think that there are some aspects we could improve, regarding of several waste next to the offices, efficiently use of the space in the shelves or in the departments or even include a kind of cart with a computer system integrated to write down each time that you visit a patient room, the information that you later have to write in the office. But, the most important thing is that you also take into account that there are a lot of simple logistics applied in each different life scenario.
As in any other Departments of a company, efficiency orientation in Logistics doesn’t consists only in cost optimization, but also in the quality of the process. In this case, the quality variable would be related with the expended time and other conditions, such as avoiding or minimizing the number of damaged or lost packets.
It is recommendable then not to focus only in the input (cost) or in the ouput (quality or performance) of the process, but consider both as equal objectives and try to balance them.
Example: improvement of high service level and its increment in costs.
Although Logistics is usually seen just as an internal process of the company, which the final customer rarely knows or cares about, the truth is by achieving the efficiency on it not only the company wins, but also the customer results benefit from it.
On the one hand, reducing the delivery time is an advantage that need no further explanation. Even more nowadays, with the continuous increase of online sales.
On the other hand, having an efficient Logistics process companies can be able to provide tracking service to the customers while the packet is on its way to the destination, which not only helps to increase the confidence of the customer in the company but also makes difficult incur in loose of packets problems.
So, in conclusion an efficient Logistics process not only makes a company save an important amount of time and money, it also helps to increase sales, customer loyalty and improves the image of the company.

In the recent month, Legislator David Tubiolo (Yonkers & Mount Vernon), Aurea Roman owner of ‘How Sweet It Is’ and community activist Kim Martinez hosted the first ‘Coquito & Flan Tasting Benefit’. The proceeds from the benefit solely go to the victims of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, through the organization of ‘Hispanic Federation/Unidos’.
Hurricane Maria is considered the worst natural disaster on record for the island of Puerto Rico. The tenth-most intense Atlantic hurricane on record and the most intense tropical cyclone worldwide of 2017, Maria was the second Category 5 hurricane, and the deadliest storm of the hyperactive 2017 Atlantic hurricane season. There was nearly $92 billion in damage and 112 confirmed fatalities up to 1,133 reported.
Roughly 1/3 of the residents of Puerto Rico – 1.2 million people – are still without electricity. Some residents still don’t have access to clean water, even where water service has been restored, many communities still have a ‘boil water’ advisory in place. Other areas are still purchasing bottled water to get the clean water they need.
“Raising money for the victims of Hurricane Maria is the least we can do. The participants, organizers, judges, audience and I couldn’t stand by and watch the devastation and after-math continue. We channeled our frustration and concern into a positive benefit through the culture of Puerto Rico,” said Legislator & Sponsor David Tubiolo.
The 3 Judges were Thomas Quinones, Hector Lopez and Iliana Ortiz. There were 6 contestants in the Coquito competition and 3 in the Flan competition.
Thomas Quinones grew up in Spanish Harlem (El Barrio) at the intersection of E. 116th Street and Lexington Avenue, his father is from Rinco and mother from Fajardo. He is a Judge for the City of Yonkers being the first person of Hispanic background to be appointed and win re-election. He was a Family Court Support Magistrate by New York City’s chief Administrative Judge (1996).
Hector Lopez grew up in Slobum Housing Project in Southwest Yonkers, his father is from Arecibo and mother from Caguas. He is a Sergeant in for Westchester County Department of Correction Officers (WCDOC) and is the President of the Westchester Hispanic Law Enforcement Association (WHLEA), Vice-President of the Yonkers Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Chair of the Yonkers Hispanic Cultural Foundation.
Iliana Ortiz was born in San German in Puerto Rico and moved to Spanish Harlem (El Barrio) at the intersection of E. 105th Street and 1st Avenue, her father is from San Herman and mother is from Mayaguez.
Aurea Roman grew up in the Bainbridge neighborhood in the Bronx, NY, and her father is from Humacao. She opened ‘How Sweet It Is’ as a classic candy & bakery shop, providing all the opportunity of assorted sweets.
Kim Martinez grew up in the neighborhood of Mount Hop in the Bronx, NY at the intersections of Tremont Avenue and Grand Concourse. Her family is from Maricao.
The Judges chose Diana Torres as the winner for the Coqutio contest and Yvette Hernandez-Ramos as the winner of the Flan contest.
The ‘People’s Choice’ awarded the following as winners for the Coquito contest, Edward Martinez (1st Place), Jose Morales (2nd Place) and Rosemary Colon (3rd Place).
The ‘People’s Choice’ awarded the following as winners for the Flan contest, Yvette Hernandez-Ramos (1st Place), Kimberly DeJesus-Seda (2ndPlace) and Santiago Caceres (3rd Place).
Almost $2,000 in proceeds were raised.

I am impressed and encouraged with this Forex Trading Academy.
I am impressed and encouraged with this Forex Trading Academy. Great staff, instructors, counseling, programs, skills taught for success. I look forward to advancing my career. But there is a missing point that through this serious course material there should be entertainment part, to make the class atmosphere more pleasant.
By far the best investment I have ever done. 20 days of trading and 27% growth, by the great strategies I’ve gotten from Essential course of @BucketListTraders, I’m so happy. The @BucketListTraders team are amazing. Specially Rana khan is the best choice as an instructor to show me the right path…patiently, he follows each step to clarify the strategies in real case of trading.
I started with zero knowledge about forex, i wanted to give it a try and was not sure how it will go forward. After many consultations with friends and family, i got recommendation to @Bucket list company and i signed for BLT's essential courses and through one month of webinar couching of Rana khan i could get everything i need to know through one to one online support with him to become a successful trader.I began with £600 to 'test the water' and soon deposited another £4.5k by great Great management of Rana khan and his professional team, great community and support 10/10 #WinningWith @BucketListTraders Fantastic strategies.They have granted me a lifetime free membership to real traders group+ free daily tips, critical startegies in real trading.
I came across @BucketListTraders when I realized that I can’t bear with 9-5 jobs and wanted to start my own business… After reading all basics about how people got into Forex and upgraded their life, finally made my mind that I wanted to buy FOREX ESSENTIAL COURSE! Before stirring the course, knew so many jargons that had absolutely no idea about them, but Thought the lessons, quiz, handouts and helpful webinars picked them all up in first week. I should highlight the support of Rana Khan who was a legend and proper Guru of all… He was explaining every bit so patiently and that it was sticking to my mind unbelievably. After learning the basics, we moved on to strategies and it was my most favorite part of this course… Engaging your brain and in simple words it’s basically planning it out ahead so clear… Once you are sure what to expect it’s time to buy and when you start seeing the dip, it’s a no wait game!! At last, although that I don’t need to go back to my tutorial materials, how be, I still got access to all of them and most importantly I am most active member of the Signal club where we get to know Rana’s views and of the market!! In one word, I can’t be any happier giving up boring life n starting my own traders experience and touch wood so far I haven’t done bad starting trading with only $300!! A MASSIVE Thanks to RANA KHAN, you’re a LEGEND!!

For a number of the last few decades, drop-side cribs have been all the rage. Many parents found the ability to reduce one pair of railings very convenient and much friendlier to the back. However, the advantage only isn't worth the cost, because several babies have lost their lives or obtained considerable injury from the design of the drop-side railings. In light of this, drop-side Automobiles have been banned because June 2011.
If you see the distinction"2-in-1," that means the convertible bed has 2 purposes (generally a crib/toddler mattress ). Similarly,"3-in-1" provides 3 functions, and so on. This re-purposing of the crib can be an extremely economical purchase and save you the hassle of updating to toddler beds and full-size beds in the future down the road.
It all depends on exactly what sleigh crib you've got your heart set on, but you may find that sleigh cribs are slightly more expensive than other versions and styles. The reason? A majority of sleigh cribs are made out of solid headboards and footboards, instead of slats. These solid pieces of wood drive up the price.
Incidentally, there is also a modern trend of using pine to create baby cribs. Pine is usually a soft wood and will nick easily. If you adore the appearance of walnut, just be ready that after usage, maybe it does not look as pretty as it did when you first got it.
No doubt, you will likely run into the convertible crib over any other style. The choice has a great deal of appeal to parents who want to find furniture that will last not only for the baby and toddler years, however beyond.
More than likely, if you've got your eye on a round crib, it is mainly because you enjoy the look of it. However, these cribs might not be the most sensible choice for your nursery.
In the past, Automobiles were mostly made out of hardwoods. Hardwood appeared to be the favored choice since they have a tendency to be more durable and easier to paint or stain.
Generally, your standard crib is the most basic crib choice available on the market. What that means is it's a crib that fits the business standard size for a crib mattress. More especially, it frequently refers to cribs which have no additional bells and whistles: it isn't a convertible crib, so it doesn't have an attached changing table, etc..
Cribs may be made out of any type of wood. The most common woods for cribs include maple, oak, cherry, ash, mahogany, birch, and beech.
A round crib requires accessories. These materials are typically more expensive than your standard crib bedding and sheets.
Now that doesn't mean that all standard cribs are inexpensive. You definitely can get a broad range of standard cribs to get a mid-price budget or perhaps luxury Automobiles which may cost you more than $1000.
If you are going to cling to your crib comes with an heirloom (bearing in mind that having a classic crib is not recommended), then the resale value of your crib is not likely to matter. But, if you want to eventually market your crib, obtaining a round crib may allow it to be a harder sell.
These bedroom pieces are intended to resemble a sleigh. As a result, they have a quaint charm. Like round cribs, the unique style does come with some drawbacks, however.
Your standard crib is, well, just a crib. That having been said, occasionally manufacturers do bulge convertible cribs into that mix, but those are not standard cribs.
Not every parent will be so keen on the convertible crib. Although these can be a terrific option for parents searching for frugal baby tips, there are a number of things to take note of using this particular design. Furthermore, infants do like to chew over as they teeth, so don't be shocked if your infant begins looking rather used very early on. If you do not purchase your crib as a comprehensive set along with other dressers, it can be difficult to coordinate with the wood end. In case you have a second child soon after your first, you will want to buy a second crib too.
Your child's crib is certainly the central article of furniture in your own nursery. Infants' Automobiles come in numerous styles, shapes, designs, and colours --it's enough to make an indecisive parent's mind spin. Have no fear, this run-down on the various alternatives for your baby's crib will allow you to sort through the fashions and find the best alternative for your infant and the layout of your pajamas.
There are a couple of explanations. For starters, parents who intend on having a second child may know they're likely to require the crib sometime soon. Two, based on the cost of your crib, the timber can become rather dinged up from continuous use (and of course sting marks from teething toddlers). And three, a few parents enjoy the notion of having nursery furniture that's distinctly"for infant."
These days, with the capability to come across accessories that are custom-made, you may quite possibly locate cribs in a variety of paint colors and finishes. Keep in mind that when a crib is identified as having a particular conclusion, state cherry, which does not automatically mean it's made of cherry wood. It's quite possible it's simply stained using a cherry-like finish. Don't be deceived!
Furthermore, round cribs will waste more floor space in the nursery. If you've got a nice big room, then maybe that isn't an issue for you. However, if you want to be mindful of space limitations, stay with a traditionally sized crib that can fit more closely in the area.
Choosing a baby crib is a significant decision and it is important to take into account the advantages and disadvantages of all of your alternatives. Keep in mind your child's safety is more important than anything else, so it is a good idea to research some crib you are considering very nicely.
The fantastic thing is that you are able to discover sleigh cribs that are also convertible cribs. Consequently, if you're looking to stretch your dollars while maintaining the attractive appeal of a sleigh crib, you are able to.
Probably, you'll find that your cheapest cribs are usually standard cribs. You can generally find them for about $100.
If you find the differentiation"2-in-1," that implies the convertible bed has 2 purposes (generally a crib/toddler mattress ). Likewise,"3-in-1" provides 3 functions, etc. This re-purposing of the crib could be a very economical purchase and spare you the trouble of updating to toddler beds and full size beds later on down the road.
Another problem with the solid head and footboards is the fact that it makes closely securing crib bumpers to the crib impossible. But with more and more medical and child's welfare communities noting the hazards of crib bumpers, this may be a moot point for you anyway. Instead, you may opt for alternatives to crib bumpers.

2016 Migration: Preparing to Resume, Errands in San Francisco - "Confused and prone to wander"
Last night, I flew into San Francisco to launch my next reunion tour with Badger. Today was a planned stationary day in The Bay area to tackle some preparatory errands.
The rest of the day was spent goodie shopping at a camera store, grabbing fish n' chips at Fisherman's Wharf, and unsnarling my way out of a traffic chaos on the north end of the Golden Gate Bridge (photo-less, no less). Tomorrow, onward south.
Another special thanks to C&C for their hospitality to both Badger and I. I feel lucky to have friends who make this sort of trip both (a) possible, and (b) that much more enjoyable.
Start: Orinda, CA. End: Orinda, CA.
Soundtrack: Earplugs around town. Pop-pop-pop of sidewall beads seating.

Sometime algorithms just don't cut it.
YouTube says it's hiring more people to help curb videos that violate its policies.
YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki says "some bad actors are exploiting" the Google-owned service to "mislead, manipulate, harass or even harm."
She says Google will have more than 10,000 workers address the problem by next year, though her blog post Monday doesn't say how many the company already has.
Wojcicki says YouTube will also use technology to flag "problematic" videos or comments that show hate speech or harm to children. It's already used to remove violent extremist videos.
YouTube is also taking steps to try to reassure advertisers that their ads won't run next to gross videos.
There have been reports of creepy videos aimed at children and pedophiles posting comments on children's videos in recent weeks.

Does the Russell Group Reputation Still Have Prestige?
As final year students across the country begin to prepare for life as a graduate, those who have studied at the University of Leeds may expect to find themselves in a more advantageous position than those at their neighbours Beckett and Trinity. The Gryphon investigates the extent that an institution’s reputation can bolster the chances of a candidate’s success outside the world of education.
It has always been a British obsession to rank everything, and universities are no different. This has created a stigmatism against more modern universities such as Leeds Beckett, which has recently been rebranded. Many will assume that this was motivated by a need to disassociate itself with the ‘Metropolitan’ image, which is seen as somewhat second class because of the vocational courses institutions like Beckett offer that are blacklisted by Oxbridge.
This stigma is helped by the constant publication of university league tables. The QS World University Rankings recently released its latest league table. Six British universities were in the top twenty, all of which belong to the Russell Group.
Despite these opinions, recent statistics published by the Social Mobility and Child Poverty Commission Study found that 71% of senior judges, 62% of senior officers in the armed forced and 55% of top civil servants. Moreover, a Russell Group graduate earns on average 16% to 19% more than those from other universities. Alan Milburn, Chair of the Social Mobility and Child Poverty commission, believes this is something which needs to be addressed, ‘that is not a recipe for a healthy and democratic society’.
However, there are positive signs regarding the employability of graduates from non-Russell Group universities. Leeds Beckett claim that 93.7% of their graduates find work or further study six months after graduating, whilst Leeds Trinity boasts a figure of 94%.
The Russell Group claims its universities are ‘committed to the highest level of academic excellence in both teaching and research’. This is reflected by both the higher entry requirements for its institutions, and the stereotype of a Russell Group graduate as articulate, intelligent and independent. In reality, the reputation of an institution does not have a massive effect on graduate jobs, but it could determine how far someone can reach up the career ladder.

The World Wide Web is one of the main communication media for all people, regardless of physical or mental impairment. However, the current state of the Web makes it hard for individuals who are blind, visually impaired, or deaf to browse websites and gather the information they are looking for, and often the very endeavor of navigating a site is brutal or impossible.
Recent developments in Web accessibility standards as well as protocols for the implementation of site front ends have brought us to an environment in which it is not only possible but often more elegant to design sites that are equally accessible across the various types of disabilities. With this project, I aim to explore design issues that plague Web surfers who are blind or deaf and, by advocating the adherence to Web standards and discipline in coding, offer suggestions for making the Web a better place for everyone.
Engineering a web resource to be universal -- not just "accessible" in a standards-compliance sense -- leads to better overall design for everyone, regardless of visual, mental, or other differences. "Universal design" simply requires a paradigm shift: instead of coding a site to look good on a screen and then throwing in the latest CSS2 validation hacks, the designer from the beginning conceptualizes a site that is not only usable but user-friendly in all scenarios. Is creativity stifled? No -- neither better nor worse, only different.
1. Shift from content to visual presentation: When the Web was first created, HTML was meant to be simply a markup language that would allow individuals to take content (text, images, tabular information) and put it in a common format that also supports hyperlinking between documents. After some time, Web pages became a forum for self-expression, which resulted in an extension of HTML to allow for stylistic formatting. When businesses began posting websites, the visual presentation became a major factor of differentiation. No one wanted all black-and-white text pages, and HTML became polluted with syntax that designers began to abuse in order to create visual effects. Content eventually became intricately tied to form, and the shift from information to something like art became the standard way of doing things.
2. Browser wars and proprietary code: From the mid 1990s to the present day, there has existed a battle between the designers of our user agents (Web browsers). The primary battle was fought between Netscape, the original creators of the Web browser, and Microsoft, the operating system giant whose Internet Explorer browser began competing head-on with Netscape as soon as it was developed. Since HTML was not standardized or patent-protected, both browser-designers began implementing their own ways of processing and displaying HTML that eventually led to two essentially parallel versions of HTML. Both sites could view basic HTML pages, but each included support for its own proprietary set of syntax, such as the <blink> and <marquee> tags. The result was that pages designed to look great in Netscape Navigator may not even load correctly in Internet Explorer, and vice versa. In 1998, the Web Standards Project (WaSP) began trying to convince Netscape and Microsoft to quit fighting because it was making the Web a treacherous place. Things have improved significantly, but there is still a marked difference among the two browers and the others (Opera, Mozilla, Safari) that are in the mix.
3. Design tools emphasize visual emphasis and bad code: As the Web grew in popularity, non-tech geeks developed an interest in publishing content on the Web, and companies stepped in with easy site development tools that allowed the layman to produce HTML without having to actually write HTML. These WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors look and feel like hybrid word processing/publishing tools, allowing the author to input and format content on the screen without having to write the code to make it happen. This was a huge leap forward, but a step back as well. Microsoft and Netscape both offered their own Web page editors that generated HTML that was optimized for their proprietary browsers. The design tools also made it easier to create visually appealing sites that lacked logical organization, coherence, or consistency. Finally, as the design community has become more and more aware of accessibility and the need to have a standard syntax for HTML, the design tools have persistently lagged behind. So, one may want to author an accessible website, but the code their favorite WYSIWYG editor generates -- even if it is the latest release -- may generate non-compliant code. Macromedia's Dreamweaver MX has made promising progress this year, but it it still much easier to create accessible Web pages if one creates the code by hand.
4. The cost of revamping outdated, inaccessible websites: Finally, a large factor that has led to the current state of the Web is the high cost (perceived or real) of modifying existing sites. When entities launch a website -- especially large sites -- the expenditure is quite large. They have to produce graphics, HTML code, databases, drivers for the databases, and content management systems. When they want to change the look of their site, it is often nearly as expensive as the initial creation since the form of the site is so tied to the content. In the old days, changing the font type or the content layout for a site may require 10,000 individual code changes or replacements over a huge collection of HTML documents. Thus, when confronted with the idea of converting a website into one that is accessible, many organizations will refuse because the costs of backwards engineering a site seem just too high. The sad thing is that this situation is unavoidable if one does not design a site to be accessible from the start. Change does cost severely if a site is designed without a long-term outlook.
Due to these major factors, people with disabilities who want to access information over the Internet have largely been ignored. Most designers consider their work as art that is meant to be seen by sighted users or heard by non-deaf users.

1. More fruit than sugar: sugar is cheaper than fruit, but more fruit means more flavor. Avoid preserves that list sugar as the first ingredient.
2. Better fruit = better flavor. All the great preserves we carry are made close to the fruit orchards to take advantage of the ripest, most flavorful fruit—and some of our preserve makers, like Robert Lambert, even pick the fruit themselves.
3. Seek luscious texture: it should be juicy and mouth-filling. Avoid jams with too much pectin, which creates a solid, gummy texture.

First off, I need to point out that I live on the east side of Hawaii Island in a zone that gets about 150 inches of rain a year. This kind of humid environment can be rough on any kind of mechanical or electrical device, plus, it grows grass faster than the Dickens, so my review represents some of the harshest conditions available for a lawn tractor.
My household has been using the Toro LX460 lawn tractor for just under three years now. Overall, we have been pleased with this model, especially considering that none of us had prior experience with using or maintaining a lawn tractor. We mow our lawns roughly once a month, and it takes about an hour at a stretch (we have a LOT of lawn).
I would consider the Toro LX460 an upper-end home model. Like most lawn tractors in its class, it is stable on hillocks but may tend to idle and can be a bit tipsy when traveling over uneven ground, such as tree roots buried in the grass. So it is very important to go slowly on this Toro, or simply to use a standard push mower, wherever you encounter such difficult conditions with your landscape.
The OEM battery lasted about two years in our environment. I understand that this is pretty typical. I replaced ours a year ago for about 50 bucks from the local battery and propane dealer, who told me that, provided that we replace the distilled water in its capped reservoirs yearly, the replacement battery should last about five years.
Also not to be overlooked, the seat is solidly constructed and makes for a comfortable ride. There's even a spot there for your beverage.
All that said, this is a real powerhouse of a tractor. I have been very impressed with its control over lawn-cutting height, and the variability of its speed. The Toro LX460 offers a lot of power and control for the money (about $2,500 in Hawaii via Home Depot). If you wanted something even gutsier and more reliable, I'd look at a John Deere in the $3,700 range (light industrial, and a special drop-ship order item here in Hawaii), which some friends of ours have been extremely pleased with ("You can grind up rocks with this," they say. For our needs, however, we feel we have made the right purchase.
Sounds like you are using a multching blade with your bag system. Multching blades are used to finely chop the grass and put back down into the lawn. They are shaped differently and do not have the lift that a normal blade has. A normal blade has more of a fan type shape to lift the grass up the tube. Either remover the chute and bag and multch or change your blades to correct the problem.
I do to fix? Would appreciate an answer ASAP.

Planting day at school, so I didn't get in as much planning done as I usually do on Tuesdays. After some random chicken and gatorade near the end of the day next door, a third grade teacher showed me some photos on the computer of when he was in the army ten years ago. Big news of the day is that the boy bought a plane ticket to come visit me in Korea for two weeks at the end of May/beginning of June!
Second period was randomly cancelled because the third grade students had a special event instead. Got principal's signature on my March attendance sheet before lunch - a huge relief, I always dread knocking on his door. That cabinet that was accidentally locked shut (with the toilet paper inside I'd bought) got opened by the repair guy today. The second grade after school daycare teacher asked me to come down to their classroom for class today, and from now on (instead of having class in the English room). I read at the park after school, and got my last heating bill in the mail when I got home.
The fourth graders had some special event during first and second periods, so we had three classes during third, fourth, and fifth periods, meaning a late lunch at 1 p.m. The kids also had to do urine tests today. My co-teacher said they're testing for diabetes I guess. Our fourth grader from Egypt said that he's going home on April 27, and is sad to leave. He just started school in March, and I guess his dad (professor) will stay here to work but the mother and kids are going back to Egypt. I paid my last heating bill after class and made some delicious 3-ingredient gluten-free chocolate cookies in my toaster oven.
Nothing eventful really happened at school today. I was busy with my six teaching periods. It's the first Friday of the year that I don't have the next week's daycare classes all planned out by the end of the day (due to Tuesday's planting day, I think). Bought some kimbap after school, then sat at the park to read and munch on it. Saw many students and lots of little ones playing. Made more banana chocolate cookies and watched Even Stevens online tonight.
Even Stevens! Ah, nostalgia. Beans!
Yeah, so much nostalgia! The show aired in 1999. Haven't gotten to a Beans episode yet, but should soon!

India’s foreign minister Sushma Swaraj took a jab at Amazon on Twitter for selling Indian flag doormats. Swaraj threatened to deny visas for the company’s employees, if the retail giant did not remove the doormats from their marketplace. According to Bloomberg, the retailer has already taken action to remove the item from their website.
We took a look on Amazon.com and could not find any Indian flag doormats but were able to find plenty of American flag doormats. We are not sure why it is considered offensive but maybe some find flags as doormats offensive to step on?
We also were interested to see if we could find a doormat for arch rival of India (Pakistan) and we did! Check it out below. One wonders if this will soon be pulled and the value of the doormat soars?

In a highly-anticipated release, the IRS provided a final set of guidelines for a complex area of the tax reform—Section 199A, the 20 percent qualified business income (QBI) deduction.
The new QBI deduction, created by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, allows many owners of sole proprietorships, partnerships, S corporations, trusts, or estates to deduct up to 20 percent of their qualified business income. Eligible taxpayers can also deduct up to 20 percent of their qualified real estate investment trust (REIT) dividends and publicly traded partnership (PTP) income.
The QBI deduction is generally available to eligible taxpayers with 2018 taxable income at or below $315,000 for joint returns and $157,500 for other filers. Those with incomes above these levels are still eligible for the deduction but are subject to limitations, such as the type of trade or business, the amount of W-2 wages paid in the trade or business and the unadjusted basis immediately after acquisition of qualified property. These limitations are described in the final regulations.
Discussed below are the highlights of what was approved, denied and what needs future advisement.
This reduction applies only to the extent QBI was taken into account to determine these deductions.
This safe harbor is good news for a number of rental property owners; however, many do not keep time logs and may not meet the 250 hours test. Time spent by property managers, maintenance contractors and others all count towards the number of hours.
If the taxpayer does not meet the safe harbor, the business may still rise to the level of a trade or business under established definitions based on facts and circumstances. These circumstances are generally more taxpayer friendly since there are cases that qualify for a variety of rental activities. An exception would be a triple net lease arrangement.
The final regulations expanded the aggregation rules, permitting partnerships and S Corporations to report multiple trades or businesses on a combined basis.
Aggregation is an option, but not mandatory, for qualified taxpayers. It may be beneficial to combine a business that has high income but low wages with another business that has high wages and low net income, allowing the aggregation of total wages to increase the overall deduction.
The IRS provided further interpretation modifying and clarifying disqualified and non-disqualified service businesses in the fields of health, law, accounting, actuarial science, performing arts, consulting, athletics and financial management. Final guidance confirmed that if specified service activities exceed a certain threshold, it will render the entire business a specified service trade or business.
The final regulations made significant modifications on how to establish the asset basis used to calculate the QBI deduction.
The IRS has revised the rule for determining the unadjusted basis immediately after acquisition (UBIA) in nonrecognition exchanges, specifically section 351 or 721 exchanges. Similar revisions have also been applied to section 1031.
With regard to section 734, the IRS preserved the original proposed regulations, wherein the distribution of money or property by a partnership is not considered an “acquisition” as related to 199A purposes and therefore does not result in UBIA for the partnership.
The IRS did, however, change certain regulations surrounding section 743, adjustments reflecting the transfer of partner interest from one person to another. The final regulations state that a partner with a section 743(b) adjustment can consider the partner’s ‘excess section 743(b) adjustment’ as a separate item of qualified property placed in service at the time the transfer of a partnership interest occurs.
The QBI deduction is available in tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2017, where eligible taxpayers will be able to claim it for the first time on their 2018 Form 1040.
Taxpayers may rely on the initial regulations proposed in August 2018 for tax years ending in 2018, as the final guidelines issued in January 2019 will be applicable to tax years ending after they are published in the Federal Register, which was on February 8, 2019.
This update on the final guidance issued for the 199A deduction for pass-through entities only begins to untangle one of the most complex areas of the tax reform. Please contact me at jsheffield@bpw.com of (805) 963-7811 should you have any questions or want to know more about this information.

Will We Stand With Jesse?
Watching the BET has always been difficult for me during my adult life, I never fully understood what the point of the BET awards was. I know some people are going to say to honor black excellences, however I have often felt the BET awards glorified all what is wrong with black society. I know black artists are not recognized in the main stream, the fact that NaS has never won a Grammy still does not sit well with me, or the fact that zero black actors or actresses were even nominated for Academy Award this year definitely does not sit well with me. However I have always seen BET, as programming that was made to help portray the negative stereotypes of black people, to put it simply I felt deep down that BET has taken the easy way out, and has marketed itself the way White America sees black people. I mean BET gave us day time program that consisted of nonstop music videos, with stereotypes of what it means to be a successful black man, or how black women should act. Furthermore if that wasn’t an enough it gave us 106 and Park, and BET After Dark. The BET awards was an extension to everything I felt was wrong with BET, recently in the past few years I felt strongly about this since BET was sold to Viacom a company that historically is run by whites, with a mostly white board of directors. So when people asked me this year, was I watching the BET awards, I probably looked at them with a face somewhere between anger, and flabbergast. To say why are you asking me this dumb question?
I had an hour to kill so I decided to tune in, because I knew at some point during the week someone going to say, “Did you see such and such on the BET awards?” It’s funny usually when I tell people I usually watch parts but not the whole thing people often looked mortified like I committed some type of social taboo against black society. So I decided to DVR it that way I could fast forward through most parts, so I wouldn’t have to sit through a million rap performances, and I could just watch the parts of the BET awards I would want to see. I was pleasantly surprised by Beyoncé’s performance starting with the playing of Martin Luther King, I couldn’t help but be interested, I felt her and Kendrick Lamar are just what was needed. It was much needed and spoke to how socially conscious Beyoncé has become in the recent years, after that performance BET went back to the sad tried and true formula, on with the jokes by Tracy Ellis Ross, and Anthony Anderson, and don’t forget the sorry rap performances to promote some more stereotypes, I went from feeling happy to anger in a matter of minutes if not seconds. With tributes to honor Prince in between, BET stuck to the formula. Then Jesse Williams happened, he said everything that needed to be said and then some.
He spoke on a number of black issues, from black lives matter, to thanking black women, hell he even named many of the blacks killed at the hands of the police. Furthermore thanking the many community organizers to the count teachers in the black community. However his most important message was to the count celebrities in the crowd, while the message was simple it was much needed call to action. Jesse, called for blacks to stand and to mobilize themselves. The message to celebrities to stop branding themselves just to get paid. The message we have never really been free as black people should ring loudly with all black people. The fact that he called, “invention of whiteness” has been using us (blacks) for decades for their own selfish benefit needed to be said. Jesse Williams summed up black America feeling about America in five minutes, and while I’m happy he said what he said, I can’t not help but wonder if his message reached the masses.
While his speech set social media a blaze, it kind of got lost as the evening went on, people started to react to other speeches and performances. As I came to work today people were no longer talking about Jesse’s speech or even Beyoncé’s performance, but how the Prince tribute could been better, or how Future should have performed a different song. Or even better someone asked, “What was the point of Beyoncé’s performance?” “Why did Jesse Williams speak for so long?” When will we wake up as people is my question? When will we stop being concerned about the Real Housewives, or how many points LeBron had last night? What really matters to us? When will we truly be concerned about our condition? The time for talk is over it time for more action.

“This is an impossible choice. AN IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE,” wrote one anonymous voter in response to our survey asking Wellesley students to pick the best Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film out of the 18 released thus far. Impossible choice though it may have seemed, the 93 respondents provided a clear answer: “Black Panther,” which swept with 51.6 percent of the vote. After “Black Panther,” “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” tied for a distant second place, each receiving 9 votes (9.7 percent).
On the subject of bad guys, several people mentioned Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger as one of strengths that set “Black Panther” apart. “It has the best villain, best overarching plot and Shuri is amazing,” wrote Samantha Lincroft ’21. Several respondents also lauded the film for its representation and landmark inclusivity. “Black Panther doesn’t just avoid being problematic, it actively pursues gender and racial equity, while being a really good movie at the same time,” praised one anonymous voter. “I nearly cried many times during that movie, and not for ‘this scene is sad’ reasons, but just because it was such a beautiful piece that I think made a lot of people feel represented and included in a way that they deserve, which was just overwhelmingly positive. The variety of roles women played in the film was also especially brilliant,” another anonymous respondent enthused.
Beyond the Captain America trilogy, the only other MCU series for which all installments received votes in our survey was “Guardians of the Galaxy,” with James Gunn’s introduction to Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) and company tying for second place overall. The sequel received a more modest two votes. Neither “Volume 2” supporter chose to comment on their selection, but Catherine Gooding ’19 elaborated on her choice of the first “Guardians” film, writing, “I think Guardians is when Marvel really hit its stride and figured out that their films can be goofy and epic simultaneously. Plus, who can resist that soundtrack?” Another anonymous voter wrote about an appreciation for the film’s focus on anti-heroes and the collaboration between unlikely allies instead of a narrow focus on the heroics of a single individual.

This Summertime smash cake session was a perfect fit for baby Emerson. We incorporated fresh flowers hanging in mason jars for a rustic summertime feel. Customizing sessions for first birthdays is something we love to do. Each one of our cake smash sessions is unique to the birthday baby! Mom chose a beautiful Pink Peony frame color to display her favorite smash image from the session. It will hang in Emerson's room. What a fun session we had for this sweetheart!

Matt Turck has penned a “State Of The City” post about where the NYC tech ecosystem is right now. I get asked this question all the time and I haven’t been doing a great job of answering it. I will use some of Matt’s work the next time that happens.
Here’s some of my favorite points from Matt’s post. If you live and work in the NYC tech ecosystem, or care about it, you should go read the whole thing.
The New York data and AI community, in particular, keeps getting stronger. Facebook’s AI department is anchored in New York by Yann LeCun, one of the fathers of deep learning. IBM Watson’s global headquarter is in NYC. When Slack decided to ramp up its effort in data, it hired NYC-based Noah Weiss, former VP of Product at Foursquare, to head its Search Learning and Intelligence Group. NYU has a strong Center for Data Science (also started by LeCun). Ron Brachman, the new director of the Technion-Cornell Insititute, is an internationally recognized authority on artificial intelligence. Columbia has a Data Science Institute. NYC has many data startups, prominent data scientists and great communities (such as our very own Data Driven NYC!).
Finally, one trend I’m personally particularly excited about: the emergence of deep tech startups in New York. By “deep tech”, I mean startups focusing on solving hard technical problems, either in infrastructure or applications – the type of companies where virtually every early employee is an engineer (or a data scientist).
For a long time, MongoDB was pretty much the lone deep tech startup in NYC. There are many more now. A few of those are in my portfolio at FirstMark: ActionIQ, Cockroach Labs, HyperScience and x.ai. But there’s a lot of others, big and small, including for example: 1010Data (Advance), BetterCloud, Clarifai, Datadog, Dataminr, Dextro, Digital Ocean, Enigma, Geometric Intelligence, Jethro, Placemeter, Security ScoreCard, SiSense, Syncsort or YHat – and a few others.
Certainly, the areas that put NYC on the map in the first place continue to be strong. New York is the epicenter of the redefinition of media (Buzzfeed, Vice, Business Insider, Mic, Mashable, Bustle, etc.), and also home to many great companies in adtech (AppNexus, Tapad, Mediamath, Moat, YieldMo, etc.), marketing (Outbrain, Taboola, etc) and commerce (BarkBox, Birchbox, Harry’s, Warby Parker, etc.).
I like the NYC 3.0 moniker. It’s a very different place to start and invest in tech companies than it was even five years ago. Bigger, deeper, broader, and scaling nicely. Just like the companies themselves.

Freshly 19 and sporting Kurt’s piercing eyes, Courtney’s (previously natural) plump lips and a curious tattoo collection, no one could argue that Frances is smoking hot in these amazingly dark and sensual photos taken for designer HEDI SLIMANE.

Currently based out of Hayama, Japanese self-taught artist Takeshi Ohgushi, creates depictions of women using ancient Japanese implements of brush and ink. His works are considered contemporary BIJINGA (which means “pictures of beautiful women”) and are made very quickly (see the vid at bottom of the page).
With brushes and ink, the typical Japanese tools of calligraphy, Ohgushi creates these delicate watercolour-like illustrations using rolls and sweeps of sumi ink on traditional Japanese paper.
His unique and beautiful technique didn’t take long to attract the attention of numerous magazines including Vogue Nippon, Numero Tokyo and Elle Japan. He has appeared in art books and exhibitions, made lots of magazine editorials, covers and advertising illustrations as well as having collaborated with fashion houses such as Emilio Pucci, renowned for its vivid print patterns.
He has also in recent years created many advertising images for department stores and fashion brands around the world using original techniques that defy classification under any one genre.
How did you start painting with calligraphy brushes and ink?
When I was 21 years old, I returned to my parents’ house after experiencing a setback in painting and discovered a calligraphy set in the closet – and drew an ink and wash picture of a woman. It felt like the most fun thing I had ever done, and I could feel that it was an intriguingly deep world. So I hoped, albeit only slightly, that even I might be able to get somewhere with it.
What is the attraction of ink for you?
Ink has special characteristics, as it quickly spreads on paper, and so there are special techniques. However, I am more attracted to the fact that it is a medium with a special sense of tension: I have to work quickly and precisely.
In your collaboration with Emilio Pucci, you had models wearing Pucci creations posing for you. What is important when working with them?
I look at the model’s contour and find the line that has the biggest number of subsidiary lines and move my brushes around that main line. The use and the number of brushstrokes become all the more important to make the flow from the contour look beautiful.
Again, why do women and flowers fascinate you so much you keep drawing them?
That can’t be explained reasonably: It makes me want to pick up my brushes when my heart twinges for an allurement. I’m constantly thinking about how to better express the essence of that twinge of heart.
What was a big influence to you?
The first influence I had was illustrator Miyuki Morimoto. When I was 23 years old, I sent her a book of my printed works and she kindly wrote back to me. I met her several times since then and learnt many things from her feminine style. I really have to give her credit for making me the person I am today.
However, right now, I’m more inclined to reflect on myself and immerse in my own sensibilities.
I’d say that it’s a style that expresses that twinge of heart, as I mentioned earlier. Many of my works focus on a single feature – like the face or the lips – but when a beautiful countenance gives me that twinge, everything else, including the surroundings and the details of the hair doesn’t register in my mind. I only draw parts and features, because I want to express that attraction, that moment of the twinge of heart in a more essential way, and I think I can better convey it without dilution that way.
Finally, what would be a challenge for you?
I would like to do a large scale exhibition and the publication of a collection of my works.
NIPPON,ELLE JAPON,NUMERO TOKYO,HARPERS BAZAAR JAPAN,+81,etc.
shu uemura, HARBIS PLAZA ENT, Kanebo.
Perfect timing… Get amongst it!

Looking to redecorate or redesign your apartment, but tight on space and/or you are at the mercy of a landlord?
Looking for more advice and inspiration designed with your small home in mind? Take a look at our small spaces hub page.
When you are living in an apartment that has been generously labelled as a 'studio', there are only so many mirrors you can hang to 'bounce light around' or multi-functional furniture you can buy to 'maximise space'.
The key thing is just to be realistic about how much you can actually fit into your apartment and make everything you do choose really space-efficient. For example, do you really need a kitchen table? Or will a breakfast bar or a handy kitchen island with more kitchen storage be a better use of space?
Find more inspiration in our storage ideas for small kitchens.
Before you buy, re-envision what you already have. Refocusing the layout could allow you to update a rented apartment without splashing out.
Try floating your furniture – just because your apartment might be on the small side, it doesn’t mean that everything has to hug the walls. If you are working with a studio apartment, you can also use furniture to make distinctions between different zones (more on that later).
There are plenty more ideas over in our easy steps to refreshing your rented flat this weekend.
Is it just a given that most rented apartments come with awful lighting? Swapping out all those builder-grade light fixtures for some funky shades is quick and easy but still has a big impact.
If you don’t have the option to replace the light fixtures, just invest in plenty of floor lamps, string up fairy lights and avoid using those ugly overhead lights.
A gallery wall is the perfect way to add a ton of interest to a space, especially if you are decorating a living room on a budget.
They are our go-to for quickly making a room feel more lived in and hanging a gallery wall yourself is probably much more straightforward than you think – especially when you use our guide to how to hang a gallery wall.
There are plenty ideas over in our inspirational gallery wall ideas, to get you excited about designing your own gallery wall, too.
Top tip: If you are renting (and want to leave with your deposit), Command Strips are a fail-safe solution for hanging your gallery wall.
Want an alternative to displaying photos and pictures? Fabric wall hangings and rugs are a quick and cheap way of brightening up your standard-issue blank wall and give a touch of that on-trend boho vibe.
Find plenty more advice and inspiration in our guide to how to display pictures and photos.
Whether it’s dirty curtains or depressing aluminium blinds, a lacklustre window treatment is always going to give a space an unpolished feel.
Swap out your old curtains for fresh ones (these Tibast curtains from Ikea are super cheap) or a simple roller blind.
If you can paint, do. It’s one of the easiest and cheapest ways to switch up a space. You don’t just have to stick to one block colour either, add a feature wall with colour blocking or try out an ombre paint effect.
If you are renting, pulling up the carpet just isn’t an option, and even if you don’t have a landlord to answer to, it’s still a pretty expensive job. So instead of replacing the carpet, cover it in layers of rugs to add extra colour and patterns.
For all you studio apartment dwellers, you may understand the nostalgia that sometimes overcomes you when you remember what it was like to have (more than just four) walls.
Obviously, you don’t want to go dividing up your space with actual solid walls, but you can put up some soft walls (ie, curtains) that can separate your space into zones. The great thing about these temporary walls is you can easily take them down when you want to open up the space again.
When square footage is limited, keeping everything organised is key, hence the need for extra savvy storage. Wall mounted shelves look amazing (as the #shelfie trend proves), they are often inexpensive, plus they will save on precious floor space, too.
Go for something that's functional and flexible like the String System so you can move the shelves around, add closed storage if you need to and even install a super compact home office by adding a desk.
Trying to add color to an apartment that is painted in various hues of greige can be tricky, but fear not, you still have options.
Can’t paint the walls? Use our guide to how to paint furniture and tackle your chairs, headboards, wardrobes and more – so long as they are yours to paint, anything goes.
Greenery makes even the smallest of spaces feel fresher and more interesting. And if you don’t have space to spare for house plants on the floor, trying hanging them instead.
Check out these house plant display ideas for more inspiration.
If your landlord's taste in furniture is...questionable...or you can't afford to replace the tired looking sofa you bought years ago/inherited from a distant aunt, don't write off gorgeous looking furniture just yet.
If you're working with a piece from Ikea, Bemz are the brand you've been looking for. Producing stylish looking covers and legs for your sofa, armchair, footstool and much more, it's never been easier to instantly upgrade a space for much less than the cost of buying new.
For an even more budget option, pick up new cushions and a couple of throws to revamp your sofa and, in turn, your living space.

When Pope John Paul II came to Lichen this past summer, it was a double blessing for the Marians of the Immaculate Conception.
Not only did the Holy Father bless the new Shrine of Our Lady of Lichen, which the Congregation began building in 1994, but he also honored the Marians by staying two nights at the monastery there.
Having the pope stay at the Marians’ house was a humbling experience, Fr. Adam Boniecki, MIC, the outgoing Superior General of the Congregation, told Marians gathered for the blessing of the Shrine. He compared it to the time when Jesus called out to Zacchaeus, the head of tax collectors in Jericho, that He would stay at his house (see Lk 19:5-6).
“Never before, since the founding of our Congregation in 1670, has a pope stayed in one of our monasteries”, Fr. Adam explained.
The Holy Father arrived at the Marians’ Lichen monastery on the evening of June 6. The following day he blessed the Shrine, which is still under construction, in front of about 300,000 pilgrims.
“I am thankful for being able to meet you on this beautiful and picturesque hill,” he said to pilgrims and the Marians,” amid fields and woods, to bless this new church in honor of the Mother of God.
Brother Andrew Maczynski, MIC (“Father Joseph, MIC”) — who served the pilgrims at Lichen several years before emigrating to the United States — said he was overjoyed and moved to tears, seeing the Holy Father on the property where he once lived.
The new Shrine is the 7th biggest church in Europe, and the 11th largest in the world. Its roots go back to the early 1800s when a dying Polish soldier, fighting for Napoleon in Germany, saw a vision of Our Lady. She reportedly told him to find an image of her and to display it where it could be venerated by the faithful. Upon his recovery and return to Poland, he found the image of Our Lady and placed it in the woods near his home, close to Lichen.
Then, in 1850, a local shepherd had a vision of Our Lady while he was pasturing cattle near the image. The current Shrine was built eight years later, and the image’s fame grew. The Marians took over the Shrine in 1949. Construction of the new Shrine began in 1994. It will seat 7,000 people when it is completed. The square in front of the Shrine holds 250,000.
During the Holy Father’s final evening in Lichen, the miraculous image of Our Lady was placed in his private chapel at the Marians’ monastery.
In blessing the Shrine earlier that day, His Holiness called upon the faithful to look to Mary as the model disciple who believed that God’s word would be fulfilled.
“Mary’s faith reminds us of the faith of Abraham, who, at the beginning of the Old Covenant, believed in God,” he said. “This is the greatness and the perfection of Mary’s faith, in the presence of which, Elizabeth uttered words of amazement.
Not only was the Holy Father’s stay in Lichen a first for the Marians, but on the morning after his second night at the monastery, the Holy Father spent about 15 minutes meeting with more than 300 members of the Congregation.
The pope then expressed his gratitude to the Marians for their hospitality and for being such good hosts for the two nights of his stay. He gave his apostolic blessing to the Marians and posed with them for a photo before departing.
Father Dan Papineau, MIC, who was ordained last December, said this meeting with the pope will always be a special memory for him. When the pope was moving into position for the photo with the group of Marians, Fr. Dan was directly behind the pope and touched him on the shoulder.
In addition to the events with the Holy Father, the gathering at Lichen was a time of bonding for the Marians, said Fr. Joseph Roesch, MIC, Vicar and Prefect of Formation for the St. Stanislaus Kostka Province.
“About half of the entire congregation was there — that in itself was historic,” explained Fr. Roesch. “And there was a real feeling of brotherhood, of bonding with these members of the Congregation who had gathered from all over the world.
Sorrowful Queen of Poland in 2003.

The two and half litre bottle of Liquid Weather is suitable for covering larger areas up to 20 square metres. With its increased size comes a wider variety of application techniques, including by brush, sponge, cloth or any hand sprayer.
Regularly used by builders and contractors for tinting new mortar (new build houses) and blending recent brickwork with old (extension works), the 2.5L bottle provides value for money when ageing brick on a large scale.
Liquid Weather perfectly matches the patina of years of weathering with just one application and a few short hours. Guaranteed to leave the surface texture unchanged, resulting in an even, natural finish.

Menton Daily Photo: Bussana Vecchia - Close the Door!
The little girl has the job of closing the massive front door.
La petite fille a la tâche de fermer la porte d'entrée massive.
This little girl is learning to be quite capable.
It looks like a heavy solid door, I wouldn't have imagined they'd have to worry too much about things like that is this gorgeous town filled with artisty types Jilly.
Another stunning shot. I do not want to leave Bussana Vecchia.
What a beautiful place! I think I'd like to live there. Is the massive door the entrance to their house, or to a courtyard w/the house just beyond?
My brain is gradually getting back on local time. Again, thank you for your hospitality and generosity when we visited Menton. The young lady's mother needs to lend a hand in this shot.
By the way, now I understand where you took your header photo from.
That door must be well balanced if such a little girl can close it on her own. Great perspective in your first photo, lovely family shots in the 2 others.

Ligue 1 strugglers Caen have concretely positioned themselves to sign 21-year-old defensive midfielder Alfa Semedo on loan from Benfica, with the Portuguese side open to such a deal, until the end of the season, according to L’Équipe.
Semedo, who joined Benfica last summer for €2m from Moreirense, has played 3 times in the Champions’ League this season. Caen currently lead the race for the youngster, despite competition from Club Brugge and Rayo Vallecano.
In the meantime, Caen boss Fabien Mercadal is also looking to bolster his attacking options, and remains keen on 27-year-old winger Nicolas Benezet, despite having an approach knocked back by Guingamp for the Frenchman earlier this window because they did not want to strengthen a direct relegation rival. In Ligue 2, Auxerre and Lens are also after the player.
If Guingamp change their mind, the bottom-placed French 1st division club will turn their attention to winger Paul-Georges Ntep, who is also being tracked closely by Caen.
The newspaper claim that it is likely that Ntep will be at one of these two Ligue 1 clubs when the window shuts on Thursday.

Buy Maisto KTM 690 Duke 1/12 Diecast Toy Bike Model and many more scale model bikes, motorcycles, diecast toys & vehicles on Hobbytoys.co. Delivery within 3-5 Business Days.
The KTM 690 Duke is the latest generation in KTM's line of midrange single-cylinder engine Supermoto or naked motorcycles. The Duke was KTM's first street bike, and first Supermoto, having previously made only off-road and racing motorcycles. In 1998 KTM introduced the 640 Supermoto, so the Duke line became a more street oriented standard or streetfighter, while retaining some off-road characteristics like a relatively long suspension travel. Initially the Duke was KTM's entry level street bike, but later KTM partnered with Bajaj Auto to produce the 125 Duke, 200 Duke, and 390 Duke in India, placing the 600 cc class Dukes in the middle of their range.
In 2005, KTM introduced the Super Duke to expand the range above the middle Duke, initially 999 cc and later growing to 1301 cc.

This post-modernist take on the National Hero Jose Rizal, his life and legend, his psyche and that of his followers, folllows the artistic and intellectual meanderings of two filmmakers (Ricky Davao and Cris Villanueva) who are struggling to make a movie about the Filipino martyr. They dissect the ubiquity of the Rizal figure, from one-peso coin to the pervasive popular practice of attaching his name to just about everything, including matchsticks and funeral houses. A movie of ideas, shot in black and white, it provokes the audience into reevaluating not only their perception of the revered nationalist and Renaisssnace man, but also their positions and attitudes toward hero worship, myth-making and deification.

Influencer-driven campaigns were supposed to change the game; however, the game is still the same. Social Media influencer-driven campaigns are basically a numbers game; they lack the so-called “influence” and mostly they do not connect with the audience.
I don’t know about the other side, but the urban market doesn’t entertain cheesy copy-and-paste campaigns and promo content, unless there is a prize involved or pre-existing hype around it. Influencer-drive campaigns lack organic reach, and this is because the content is pre-developed by the client, account manager and copywriter – by the time it reaches the influencer, the specific post has a dedicated #Hashtag, a video or a picture and the brand’s handle(s). This affects influencers because it turns what should’ve been an easy tweet-and-get-paid gig into a job, where you need to think of the best way to communicate the campaign.
Account Managers and their bosses were supposed to use Influencers in a strategic way to “influence” perception of a brand or existing campaign of a brand without people noticing. Influencer-driven campaigns should work like product placement in movies. Account Managers should identify people with the right storylines and strategically communicate branding through them without making it OBVIOUS. Swa jumpa when the agency behind the campaign opts to pay for the tweets to be “promoted” by twitter.
Account managers and their bosses pay influencers, and then spend on the various social media platforms to promote the influencer’s content, to an audience outside the influencer’s following. WHY? And why are most social media influencer-driven campaigns done in English? Who decided on replacing actual influencers with celebrities? When will it be made public that white influencers take home more money for doing the same work as everyone else?

Skills has unveiled Skills Advanced Cognition, a Web-based system designed to help parents, educators and professionals plan intervention programs for high functioning students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Students with high functioning ASD may have difficulty with social skills such as sustaining conversation, understanding social rules or understanding sarcasm or irony. They also may have obsessive interest in a particular subject. Skills Advanced Cognition is designed to help educators plan lessons on topics such as sensory perspective taking, disengagement, detecting sarcasm and deception, following rules and safety awareness.
Skills Advanced Cognition is based on the principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA), an evidence-based method of teaching skills to individuals with autism. The system provides tools to help educators assess the student's skill level, design a treatment plan from an individualized pool of suggested activities, and track and report on progress.
Support for multiple students on a single platform.
Subscriptions to Skills Advanced Cognition are available for parents, individual professionals, schools and districts. Further information about Skills Advanced Cognition can be found on the Skills site.

Through out the entire Syrian civil war there has been one sizable yet quiet portion of the population that has mostly decided remaining on the sidelines would be better than to risk life and limb for potentially supporting the wrong side: and that would be Syria's more than two million worshippers of Christianity.
Who, despite their longstanding neutrality, were targeted last night by what government officials called a suicide bomber and rebel forces a mortar attack in a Christian neighborhood of Damascus, near the Virgin Mary Greek Orthodox Church, which claimed the lives of four innocent souls.
Which is just another reason for the Syrian Christian community to remain on the sidelines in their fellow countryman's increasingly bloody and barbaric battle for control. As if the example of Egyptian tolerance falling by the wayside following Mubarak's fall wasn't bad enough, they now have to contend with the fear of partisan attack within their own land.
P.S. - Some might note that the Christian community has even supported al-Assad's regime in Syria's ongoing civil war, and they would be correct. Mostly due to fears of an Islamic takeover and the fact Assad's sect of Islam, Alawite, is historically tolerant of other religions and even at one point mingled both Christianity, Islam and other faiths in their worship.

When news broke this week that Shell was selling almost all of its oilsands assets in the province, Alberta’s opposition parties pilloried the deal with something resembling verbal muscle memory.
“Shell is waving goodbye to Alberta … The premier’s plan is not working,” Opposition leader Brian Jean said during question period, in a familiar refrain.
In a legislature hallway, Progressive Conservative interim leader Ric McIver told reporters the sale is a sign of the times.
“The government is decidedly not business-friendly. And a lot businesses that have been here for a long time are making a decision to have smaller investments in Alberta,” said McIver.

The World Bride Magazine team had the idea to go to Cartagena de Indias to attend Tendencias 2014, Cartagena’s bridal week. I thought that was a wonderful idea and that the event would be similar to most bridal shows and conferences that are held in the U.S. That was far from the truth.
Upon arriving in Cartagena, my first impression of the city reminded me of a Bible verse, “old things are passed away.” As we drove on streets that have supported people since the 1500s and were beautifully lined with man-made stone walls, I was immediately struck by the juxtaposition of the blatant traces of the past to the freshness of modern asphalt and gleaming office buildings. And so began our journey as we headed to our hotel located inside Cartagena’s colonial walled city, designated a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Our driver was wonderful and our representative from the hotel made certain we got a glimpse of various landmarks along the beautiful road near the Caribbean Sea. We were in northern Colombia, with weather that was very pleasant with an average temperature of 88 degrees.
Cartagena de Indias is an extraordinary yet complex city. It is the perfect backdrop for a destination wedding. The city offers the rare opportunity to walk back in time to a place that was filled with romance and opulence, and at the same time to feel the subtle elegance that surrounds your every experience. The city is right on the water and provides the familiar water activities for you and your wedding party.
The timeless historical architecture of the churches and hotels is beautiful and provides the perfect luxurious setting for a romantic wedding weekend. Imagine these amazing buildings that were constructed in the 1500s and tightly hold the mystery of a people’s history that will never be forgotten. The walls of many monasteries and convents are now adorned by luxurious wall treatments, window dressings and extraordinary artwork and other well-appointed, eye catching touches.
Since it was the Cartagena Bridal Week, the entire city of Cartagena and its citizens were poised to provide each and every participant a memorable experience. Not only were we impressed by the event’s local event planners, caterers and other wedding professionals, but we were also impressed by the various venues, and found ourselves viewing each with the eye of a bride and planner.
I visited several wonderful hotels that weren’t part of our well-planned schedule. Each hotel and staff had their own personality yet they each fit nicely into the beautiful architecture that once held either convents or monasteries to truly provide individual experiences.
Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena, our host hotel, lived up to its well-deserved five-star rating. It is one of the finest hotels with stunning wraparound of the coastline. Sofitel is, in itself, magical. Although the hotel is reminiscent of an old convent that surrounds its guests, modern pleasures are within immediate reach. Embracing its rich architectural heritage, the hotel’s gracious old-world ambiance permeates the grounds, from the lobby and outdoor gardens to private terraces and inviting courtyards. The center courtyard express a vibrant openness while at the same time maintains a peaceful quality and style. All of the luxuries and amenities have been carefully designed to reflect what is expected of an internationally renowned hotel. But most importantly, all of the stunning appointments, professional world-class management and facilities clearly aim to inspire and renew the spirits of those who embrace this incredible experience.
Tcherassi Hotel & Spa with the Vera Restaurant is the perfect location for a villa experience. There are seven rooms situated in a rather abstract manner on different levels with a variety of access locales and stairs. The pools are located on the roof and the lobby next to the Vera and bar. I would certainly book the entire building for either the groomsmen or bridesmaids. This amazing hotel is right in the heart of a busy town square but you would never know it. Another bonus is that each room enjoys a wonderful view of the city.
Casa San Agustin, a luxury boutique hotel, features three houses set within the business and residential area. The hotel is well appointed and these separate accommodations are seamlessly integrated. Casa San Agustin has 24 guest rooms and six suites. The architect and designer worked hand in hand to restore the library’s frescoes and wooden beamed ceilings. In the center of these historical structures is the courtyard with a historic aqueduct as its centerpiece, yet another amazing part of Cartagena’s history. The hotel preserves an authentic Colombian style with a blend of contemporary details. Large pictured windows and breezy balconies allow natural light to brighten each space and bring the beauty of nature indoors. A select number of guest rooms feature private plunge pools or Jacuzzis and all rooms feature traditional colonial inspired furnishings and luxurious linens.
Then there is Hotel Charleston Santa Teresa. How can one city boast another five-star hotel and spa? This hotel is renowned for its commitment to creating a lavish destination for tourism, weddings and retreats. The options are endless, with lodging that varies from suites of incredible proportion to single rooms. Rising above this ancient and bustling city is an incredible oasis of calm and cool understated elegance. While you sit cradled in this amazing paradise, you can enjoy the fascinating historical architecture and feel right at home with all the contemporary luxurious décor and appointments. Their spa is where you would want to spend your time because the variety of services makes the trip unforgettable. Every person I met in my brief visit was excited about the hotel and its variety of amenities.
I must say, this trip was a wonderful experience. While I speak only a little Spanish, there wasn’t one person who wasn’t capable of answering my questions. The people, the courtyard markets and the history make this a magical experience.
In every hotel, I felt the commitment of each person enjoying the hotels’ transformation from their humble beginnings of a convent or monastery to an elegant representation of the world’s best architects and decorators.

He [and Beyonce] dated for years, now they're married...and for him - it's time for children," a source close Jay-Z rapper told MediaTakeOut.But it seems that motherhood isn't part of the singer's immediate plans."Beyonce is very career focused. She has another album due this year and a couple of major film projects in the works," the source continues. "Her career is moving at 90 miles per hour and she's not trying to have it slowed down by a baby."[Jay Z and Beyonce] are best friends so it's not like they're fighting over it...but they both feel very strongly about [their positions] - if one of them doesn't relent, I think it could be a big problem."

MTI Corporate Finance announces the launch of the much awaited ‘idea2fund’, a platform for anyone to pitch their business idea and gain access to funding and advisory. The entry application to this venture challenge is now open to be downloaded from the following link: www.idea2fund.lk.
This platform which is conceptualised and managed by MTI Corporate Finance, is an initiative to encourage entrepreneurship across all audiences and domains in the island.

It’s like “Sinatra at the Sands,” only the Count Basie Orchestra is too hungover so The Specials are filling in for the night.
As Hoboken continues to celebrate Frank’s upcoming centennial birthday, the boys from Skanatra will reunite for a show at Sinatra Park this Thursday at 7:00.
Formed in 1999, Skanatra have proven themselves to be truly adept at taking Sinatra tunes that proverbial “one step beyond.” More than just a rambunctious ska beat, each tune is expertly arranged to ensure that it actually works—all of which leads to enthusiastic live performances from this legendary Hoboken ensemble. Their impressive sampling from the Sinatra songbook maintains plenty of due respect to the man who made these songs famous, while playfully injecting their own bit of madness.
Sinatra fans, ska fans, music fans, Hoboken fans—this is a can’t-miss performance in an amazing setting.
Plus comedian Jim Dodge—a Hoboken institution in his own right—will be on hand to set the stage for a tremendous night.

A shrub that is in only two Florida panhandle counties: Leon and Gadsden. Native to Asia, Elaeagnus umbellata can now be found in much of the eastern United States, west to Nebraska and Kansas, plus Montana, Oregon and Washington. It also occurs in Ontario.
Silverberry is many-branched and grows to about 3m (10 ft.) tall with alternate leaves that are elliptic to oval, 1-8 cm (3/8 - 3-1/8 in.) long and 1-3 cm wide (3/8 - 1-3/16 in.). The undersides of the leaves have silvery-metallic scales. Clusters of fragrant flowers appear in the leaf axils in spring. The trumpet-shaped flowers are about 1 cm (3/8 in.) long, are cream to light yellow in color and flare out to four lobes. The fruit is red and drupelike, 5-8 mm (3/16 - 1/3 in.) long.
Elaeagnus umbellata can be differentiated from E. pungens by being deciduous and by having leaf undersides that are silvery, not white, with few if any brown scales.
Elaeagnus umbellata is a member of the Elaeagnaceae - Oleaster family.

A luminosity mask is basically a black and white rendition of the photo and these masks are great for allowing you to target tonal ranges with specific effects or filters. I quickly show how to make a few quick adjustments in Develop and then jump over to effects to use the Luminosity Mask feature. Using the new Levels and Window controls in the masking panel will allow you to target your adjustments to just where you want them using luminosity masks.

the examination of the process of design as a learning intervention.
How can cognitive science help faculty sequence learning activities to promote reflective sensemaking in support of formational outcomes?
How can the techniques of discourse analysis facilitate evaluation of a corpus of reflective writing?
How can platforms and technologies be used to design an environment that supports contemplative reading?
How can faculty most effectively design learning with formational outcomes in mind?
Learning analytics are a crucial part of understanding learners and their contexts, and help to support an effective learning environment. Our research in learning analytics collects, measures, and evaluates formational concepts of learners, and our research in this area supports the postsecondary success of a wide range of students. In our research, we draw upon the tools of learning analytics, including Social Network Analysis, Virtual Learning Systems Analysis, Information Visualization, Discourse Analysis, and Disposition Analytics.

Why Does My Toyota Odyssey Motorhome Overheat On Grades?
My '90- 22' Toyo-Odyssey heats up on steep grades when the weather is hot in California and Arizona. I do not drive with the A/C on, or water tank full. Do not overload MH.
I have replaced the Fan Clutch (3) times within last 3 years. The first time was due to overheating, second time defective fan clutch, last time fan clutch seized up in Canada. After repair drove all over Canada and Alaska pulling steep grades with no problem. Started up steep grade (Grapevine) started overheating, it was a hot afternoon. The radiator was gone through prior to trip. Could you help me.
ANSWER: Greetings Jewel thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.
Since you state that you have had the radiator worked on and replaced the fan clutch we can eliminate those two items as a cause of your current overheating problem.
The overheating problem could be something as simple as a bad radiator cap or bad thermostat or even a pin hole leak in one of your radiator hoses.
On the more complicated and expensive side you could have a bad or leaking water pump, blown head gasket, cracked head. Besides the overheating a sure sign of head gasket problems is seeing white smoke (steam) coming out of your exhaust pipe especially when you are overheating.
I am afraid that the only way of finding out for sure is by taking your Motorhome in and having a mechanic check all of the items I mentioned above.
Comments for Why Does My Toyota Odyssey Motorhome Overheat On Grades?
I have owned a Toyota Winibago Toyo MH for three years (3.0 v6, automatic). Have always had over heating issue in summer. I travel mostly in Utah, Arizona and California. I am in the process of replacing the radiator with a 3 core copper radiator and installing a 3300 cfm electric fan. The electric fan should give me a few extra hp by taking the load off the engine and lowering the temp. I also am hoping for cooler air from the ac. Will report back on results in a couple months.

Weight loss occurs when the amount of calories you take in is less than those you burn. We all know that if we eat high-calorie foods, it's going to take a lot to burn them off.
For instance, if you like your morning roti prata with egg (around 289 calories), you'll have to take a brisk walk for around an hour and a half to burn it off. You can still enjoy that delicious dish, but why not make it a treat, and not a routine?
While exercise goes hand in hand with a healthy diet, making a few good food choices helps us make sure the dial on the bathroom scales goes down instead of up.
Replace sugary and artificially sweetened drinks with fresh coconut juice or plain water.
Double your vegetable intake and halve your meat intake – let your veggies and not your mutton rending curry be the star of your lunch.
Replace sugary desserts with one serving of fresh fruit.
If you usually eat deep fried food three times a week, reduce this to a once-a-week indulgence.
Start the day with a healthy breakfast. Protein-rich eggs are good (boiled or poached), and they will keep you satisfied until lunch – just don't be tempted by the empty calories of the accompanying kaya toast.
Most successful dieters find that having four to five small meals a day is better than loading up on three large ones. It keeps hunger at bay, making it less likely you will succumb to an unhealthy choice.
If you are a snacker, swap your morning muffin or afternoon cake for healthy options such as celery with peanut butter, plain nuts with a square of dark chocolate, or half an avocado.
Beware of low-calorie options. You might think that low-calorie dressing or half-fat coconut milk is better for you, but the addition of additives such as sugar can still make it high in calories.
Downsize your plate. If you have a smaller plate, you'll eat less – just don't compensate by piling it high to make up for the fact it's not as wide!
No one's saying you have to deny yourself – just be sensible. If you crave chicken rice, halve your portion.
Managing your weight is as much a state of mind as a plan of action. Help yourself by shopping for groceries after you've eaten. If you're eating out, have a couple of glasses of water before you go – feeling full is a great deterrent to overeating.

Children from five South London schools, including Jubilee Primary School and Richard Atkins Primary School in Brixton will be attending workshops in the Believe in Tomorrow garden created by Seonaid Royall of Sprout Up.
Unusually for a garden at the prestigious RHS show, Believe in Tomorrow has been crowdfunded, with hundreds of small individual donations raising more than £13,000 of the £15,000 needed so far. To support the project and find out more, visit the crowdfunder website.
Designed to reconnect the city’s children with nature, it will be part oasis and part classroom, featuring edible planting beds, a fire pit and pond, as well as secret pathways to explore. “The wider aim of the project is to give children the chance to get their hands dirty for once and be inspired to spend more time outdoors,” says Royall.
After the show, different parts of the garden will be relocated to the schools and communities that helped to build it, giving them permanent access to the health and wellbeing benefits that go with spending time in nature.

And according to his profile, he is a Purr-due grad, which makes him a pretty decent guy off the bat.
Does any other fan base move around in the stands shouting with jerseys on than Yankee fans?
Poor guy is taking a little nap.
Not a surprise, but just reported Joe will be back next year. No extension.

Also not surprising at all that Javy and Willy also have huge splits between low/medium leverage and high leverage. Both seem to go up there anxious in a big spot like they'll swing at anything.
Pretty much explains the offense.

Since 2009, the Boko Haram driven crisis (herein, Armed Opposition Groups [AOGs]) has crippled north eastern Nigeria. The Borno State continues to be most the affected, with over 1.8 million internally displaced persons (IDPs). Recent advances by the Nigerian Army and the Multinational Joint Task Force have improved humanitarian access in 26 of the 27 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Borno but have also revealed the extent of the crisis. In newly accessible areas, basic infrastructure has been destroyed, essential services are non-existent, and most local governance systems are not functional.

Yesterday I went to work at 8 in the morning. This meant that I had to get up just after 6:30. I am not used to doing this anymore. I wasn’t tired though so that’s good. I had about 2/3 of my travel mug of tea. I didn’t drink it all but no one says that I have to drink all of my tea. It was early but there is still no excuse for the following incident: The box the juice was in and the box my soy milk was is were the same colour so I poured orange juice into my oatmeal and almost into my tea as well. Almost pouring it into my tea was probably worse even than having flavoured oatmeal though because it occurred sometime after I had already poured it into my oatmeal and then dumped it out and said to myself that gosh, those containers are the same colour.
I haven’t had tea yet today but I have to wait now because the kitchen is drying.
I am going on a trip in two weeks. I haven’t started packing yet but today I thought that I should keep up with my laundry so that when the time comes I will have things to pack. Like underwear and such. I don’t think I have anything left to buy before I go, however, I should start a list so I don’t have to do everything at the last minute. Conveniently, I work on the day before I leave so last minute things will be hard to do. I should also find a notebook to start writing things in (a list, for example) and to take with me so I have something to write in on the plane(s). I wonder if anyone wants a postcard from Newfoundland? Lucky that I already have everyone’s addresses so they will get one whether they think they want one or not.

The mammalian immune system is a dynamic multiscale system composed of a hierarchically organized set of molecular, cellular, and organismal networks that act in concert to promote effective host defense. These networks range from those involving gene regulatory and protein–protein interactions underlying intracellular signaling pathways and single-cell responses to increasingly complex networks of in vivo cellular interaction, positioning, and migration that determine the overall immune response of an organism. Immunity is thus not the product of simple signaling events but rather nonlinear behaviors arising from dynamic, feedback-regulated interactions among many components. One of the major goals of systems immunology is to quantitatively measure these complex multiscale spatial and temporal interactions, permitting development of computational models that can be used to predict responses to perturbation. Recent technological advances permit collection of comprehensive datasets at multiple molecular and cellular levels, while advances in network biology support representation of the relationships of components at each level as physical or functional interaction networks. The latter facilitate effective visualization of patterns and recognition of emergent properties arising from the many interactions of genes, molecules, and cells of the immune system. We illustrate the power of integrating ‘omics’ and network modeling approaches for unbiased reconstruction of signaling and transcriptional networks with a focus on applications involving the innate immune system. We further discuss future possibilities for reconstruction of increasingly complex cellular- and organism-level networks and development of sophisticated computational tools for prediction of emergent immune behavior arising from the concerted action of these networks.

Technical, Tough and Beautiful Mountain.
The Dhaulagiri Expedition is a tough proposal for mountaineers at any time. Its name is derived from the Sanskrit 'Dhaula' meaning white and 'giri' meaning mountain. The mountain was sighted by British surveyors in India in the early 1800s and was mapped by one of the secret Indian surveyors, the pandits, in 1873. However, the region remained largely unknown until a Swiss aerial survey in 1949. The French Annapurna expedition in 1950 had permission to climb either Annapurna or Dhaulagiri, but decided on Annapurna after a reconnaissance of Dhaulagiri. A Swiss party failed in 1953, as did an Argentine group one year later.
Eight members of a Swiss expedition finally reached the summit in 1960, after four other attempts. The climbing route went around the mountain from Tukuche, over Dhampus pass and French Col, approaching the summit from the Northeast Col. The expedition was supplied by a Swiss Pilatus Porter aircraft, called the 'Yeti' which landed on the Northeast Col (5977m). Near the end of the expedition the plane crashed near Dhampus pass and the pilots, including the famous Emil Wick, walked down the mountain to Tukuche. In 1969 an avalanche killed seven members of a US expedition on the East Dhaulagiri Glacier. In 1973 the Americans were successful. Again Captain Emil Wick airdropped supplies to the expedition, including two bottles of wine and a live chicken. However, the Sherpas would not allow the chicken to be killed on the mountain. It became the expedition pet and was carried, snow-blind and crippled with frostbitten feet, to Marpha. It finally ended up in the cooking pot.

Currently considered the gold standard in dermal filler technologies, Juvederm® gel is available in several different formulations. Some are FDA-approved to be used for non-surgical lip enhancement. Thanks to Juvederm®, it’s possible to get fuller lips and to refine the overall shape of your mouth without having to undergo an invasive and potentially high-risk procedure. Juvederm® lip injections take mere minutes to complete and the results can last for up to one year.
Juvederm® is comprised almost entirely of hyaluronic acid. This is an acid that is naturally-occurring within your body. Found at the foundation level of your skin, hyaluronic acid provides both volume and structural support. When injected into the lips, Juvederm® can alter the lip shape and size, volume and overall structure.
This treatment is ideal for people who are experiencing age-related volume loss at or around the mouth and for those with naturally small or uneven lips. Juvederm® lip injections can even be used to subtly reshape the mouth and to create greater balance and symmetry across all facial features.
Once injected into the targeted area, the hyaluronic acid in this dermal filler bonds to the surrounding skin cells. This quickly creates a plumper and more appealing pout. Over time, as the hyaluronic acid is recognized by the body, it will slowly be absorbed. As such, Juvederm® lip injections must be repeated on a regular basis to experience ongoing benefits.
Why Choose Juvederm® for Lip Injections?
At one time, collagen was the most preferred dermal filler for lip enhancement procedures. Now, however, collagen injections are rarely used to enlarge or reshape the lips. Comparatively, Juvederm® is much safer than collagen and the results that this formula provides are far longer-lasting. The same is also true for lip implants. Juvederm® for lip enhancements entails fewer risks of side effects than implants, and it consistently provides impressive results.
A typical Juvederm® lip enhancement procedure usually lasts just about 20 minutes. Only minimal discomfort is involved both during and after treatment. With Juvederm®, there are no special aftercare requirements and you can immediately resume your normal activities as soon as your injections are done.
Juvederm® is just one of the products we use at The John Bull Center for Cosmetic Surgery and Laser Medispa for lip enhancement. During a consultation at our office in Naperville, you can learn about which technique is best for you. Contact us today to schedule your appointment.

Robert Dacunto says the "American government is the biggest gangster in the world." Turns out he should know.
Dacunto, 48, is part of a core group of Staten Island Tea Party volunteers known as the "road crew." They organize rallies, confront politicians, fire off letters to editors.
In an interview, Dacunto trashed Social Security as a "massive Ponzi scheme" and said the Founding Fathers would be horrified to see the country they created.
"They'd be looking to cut taxes and entitlements and start a second American Revolution," he said.
What he didn't mention was his June 2000 arrest in a $3.1 million Mafia stock scam.
Federal prosecutors said Dacunto, as a licensed broker, took bribes to tout stock in worthless companies. Gangsters in on the caper sold their insider shares when the value peaked, leaving the victims - many of them senior citizens - penniless.
Prosecutors said he reported to a Genovese crime family associate and pocketed $112,000 in ill-gotten gains. He pleaded guilty to four counts of conspiracy in 2001.
Asked about his role in this swindle, Dacunto said, "I'm not going to tell you I'm an angel. It was the Wild West on Wall Street. I made stupid mistakes."
He spent 15 months in prison and, along with 60 co-defendants, was ordered to repay the $3.1 million stolen from the victims.
He repeatedly missed payments, records show, and in 2006, Manhattan Federal Judge Gerald Lynch threatened to toss him back in jail.
To date Dacunto has paid $2,171, records show. He's still fuming that the unsatisfied federal judgment tarnished his credit rating.
"It's affecting my life and my finances, and I'm about to sue the federal goverment," he said. "They cannot be allowed to get away with this."
Wave Chan, 42, a real estate agent on the lower East Side and the son of Chinese immigrants, sums up the movement's mantra: "I love my country," he said. "I fear my government."
Chan said he had never voted in his life - until rising anger over the humongous health care bill and bailouts that "robbed the needy to give to the greedy" led him to volunteer for Tea Party 365 in Manhattan.
He says he developed a rigorous work ethic laboring in his family's Chinese restaurant in Poughkeepsie: "I grew up washing dishes and peeling onions when I was 10 years old."
Like many in the movement, he carries a dog-eared copy of the U.S. Constitution at all times, as well as his birth certificate, photo ID and Social Security card.
"I do it to make a point," Chan said. "I don't care if President Obama was born in America or not - or if he was legally elected President or not. I just want to be able to prove I was born in America."
John Kenneth Press, 45, an administrator at an East Side hospital and president of the Brooklyn Tea Party, calls himself a champion of "culturism."
"It's the opposite of multi-culturalism," he explains. "It says we have a Western majority culture in this country - a European Judeo-Christian culture - and the right to protect and promote it."
He came east from L.A., where he taught history for eight years. His start-up Brooklyn chapter now has a Facebook page with 600 members.
After completing his doctorate in the history of education at New York University, Press worked as an adjunct professor at Vaughn College of Aeronautics in Flushing.
Asked where he wanted his picture taken, Press choose the iconic George Washington statue opposite the New York Stock Exchange. "He was one of the first culturists in the new republic," he said.
