Vintage STEVEN KALEIDOSCOPE Kit in Orig Graphics Box! - eBay (item 310022363543 end time Feb-17-08 20:04:33 PST)
This vintage kaleidoscope comes in the original box with a game sheet. The box is marked, "Steven Plastic Kaleidoscope Kit. Create your own 'millions of designs'. Constructive Fun for Young and Old. U.S. Pat. App. For." The toy itself is marked, "Millions of Designs Kaleidoscope, Steven Mfg. Co., St. Louis, MO."
The directions sheet tells you to take off the white cap and frosted glass so you can replace the design contents with other items furnished with the kit. Those other items are not here. It gives a list of other items you can use to create designs. Suggested items:
How interesting to be able to put your own things inside and see what they look like. I never had that option in my kaleidoscopes. The back of the directions says you can get additional parts or replacements by writing to therm. The address is so old, there's no zip code.
- Colored buttons of various sizes and shapes.
- Dry breakfast cereals.
- Colored bits of paper, flat or wadded.
- Colored bits of feathers.
- Broken match sticks.
- Small colored beads.
- Flower petals.
- Metal paper clips, various sizes and shapes.
- Large size carpet tacks and nails
- Dried beans, peas, etc.
- Live or dead insects and worms.
- Small colored sea shells, etc.
There are great vintage graphics on the box. It shows designs resulting from inserting nuts and bolts, or colored glass, or macaroni or match chips. The bottom is stamped, "RED", has a "13" in a circle, and "48 2259."
To see the designs change, rotate the whole tube. Gorgeous designs appear. It's in very good condition with some minor wear on the white cap and two wide areas on the plastic ridges along the tube. The box is very rough with a huge chunk missing and the lid torn completely free.

Maximizing Me Time
Let's face it. Many of us spend the majority of our week hard at work. Rarely, do we have sufficient time to devote to family and friends. Moreover, we have to cram in moments of prayer/devotion and rest. When we think about the imbalance, it can be very discouraging. However, we should refrain from wasting time murmuring about our lack of R&R. Instead, we should make the most of our down time. Therefore, this post is dedicated to maximizing your outside of work hours.
The above items are all a part of my relaxation regimen. I start my evening routine by lighting a beautifully scented candle and taking a soothing shower. Next, I go to Hulu and turn on my current favorite series, The Good Wife. My other favorite source of evening entertainment is rereading novels that I've enjoyed throughout the years. Jane Eyre is a novel that I can read again and again and still get lost in the chapters. It increases my vocabulary while taking my imagination to new places. Of course, my evening would be incomplete without the perfect snack. A bowlful of white cheddar popcorn or a square of sea salt & almond dark chocolate is the best accompaniment while watching my shows. I do all this while wearing my favorite robe and fuzzy socks.
Do you find yourself consumed and exhausted by work? How do you unwind? Share your R&R regimen with me in the comment section below. PS: This is not a sponsored post.

It's hard to believe that we're coming up on two years since Pillars of Eternity (formerly code-named Project Eternity) was crowd funded. Obsidian Entertainment, makers of fine titles such as Fallout: New Vegas, South Park: The Stick of Truth and Alpha Protocol, have been hard at work crafting an old-school RPG that couples the visual fidelity of modern gaming with the nostalgia of games built in BioWare's Infinity Engine, such as Baldur's Gate. We were able to meet with Adam Brennecke, Executive Producer on Pillars of Eternity, at E3 last week to see a demonstration of the different mechanics the game possesses, and we left impressed.
We got a close look the first twenty minutes of the game. For demo purposes, Obsidian skipped the character creation section as players could get lost for hours exploring customization options and never demo the actual game. You're able to pick between six races (Human, Aumaua, Dwarf, Elf, Godlike or Orlan), along with the various classes that fit your play style. It was noted that, no matter what class is chosen, the character will be able to equip anything. For example, they had a level 1 Wizard that was rolling with heavy armor; it's fully customizable like that. Pillars of Eternity opens with various individuals being transported on a caravan to a new life. Stopping near an innocuous old cavern, the group is assigned different tasks to accomplish; some are in charge of water, fire, but the player is in charge of finding berries to aid their illness.
There are various characters that will travel with you through the campaign, and the first in this case is a warrior. While talking with her, the player is able to craft their own backstory, even describing where they came from and their upbringing. It's entirely up to the player to determine where their character came from, and where they will go changes depending on their choices. After fetching what you've been assigned to do, things go horribly awry as a tribe attacks the caravan and leaves many dead. Apparently they don't take kindly to trespassers on their ancient land.
Narration and dialogue choices are key factors to Pillars of Eternity as depending on how a situation is approached, the outcome will be different. This all ties into their Disposition Reputation System which tracks just what kind of a person you are. This is represented through minor and major choices when selecting dialogue (Hardcore players can turn off the visual indicators), crafting the protagonist's demeanor. Choosing to be diplomatic, honest, aggressive, or something else will shape what kind of person the protagonist ends up being, even unlocking different pieces of dialogue for given situations.
Combat is a major factor in any RPG, and Pillars of Eternity doesn't skimp. You'll quickly find yourself in a party of up to six, and each class has his or her own distinct abilities. The warrior has defense and knockback strengths, while someone like the rogue is more of a quick and nimble individual. Pillars of Eternity runs on an active system that can be paused at any time to better survey the situation. Through the isometric camera angle, players will be able to give commands to their party members and better plan out a fight.
Pillars of Eternity will feature hundreds of beautiful handcrafted environments, a robust combat system and a completely adjustable story filled with unique characters to recruit. While we were only privy to a small slice, it made us crave the entire pie. There's so much to explore in this world and so many branching paths to be taken that Obsidian Entertainment may just have one of the most sought-after experiences on the market. While there is still no given release date, expect to play Pillars of Eternity sometime later this year on PC and Mac.

Well this blog is closing it's doors. I've moved out of my old fabulously birdy garden into the in-laws with their fox and hedgehog visitors and will now move onto our new home on the weekend.
Thank you to every one who has visited and enjoyed and commented. I really appreciate it. I hope you wander over to the new place. It will be sporadic at first as we won't have internet for a month, but I will post when I am in work and will certainly take lots of photos.
Over the last few days we've seen the following birds which the mother in law is under strick instructions to keep happy:
Tits - Blue, Coal, Great
Finches - chaffinch and greenfinch
Corvids - Magpies, Crow, Jackdaws
Collared doves, Blackbirds, Thrush (was a fat one)
Dunnocks, Robins, sparrow, nut hatch, seagull
And to my delight, a brand new bird I've never seen before and I saw him on two days - a grey wagtail.
And these are birds I haven't seen for a few weeks:
jay, bullfinch, starling, black cap, woodpigeon
Not a bad selection indeed.
And of course there's the at least 6 hedgehogs, 3 squirrels and a fox.
The next place has a lot to live up to to satisfy me. What new birds will I see? It's not too far from woodland and other people in the area have told me that they've seen hogs, foxes and birds of prey.

Indy 500: 2019 Indianapolis 500 is one of the biggest races in the world, so find out how to watch the Indianapolis 500 online or live today, in order to be there as IndyCar crowns its latest Indy 500 winner.
2019 Indianapolis 500
The good news for the winner of the 2019 Indy 500 is that the total purse for the race, which was roughly $27,550 back in 1911 for the first Indy 500, is more than $13 million these days.
The bad news for the winner of the 2019 Indianapolis 500 is that, unlike the first Indianapolis 500 for which the winner received more than 50 percent of the purse, he will receive roughly 20 percent of the purse. Still, something along the lines of $2.5 million isn't a bad payday for a Sunday afternoon shift.
Indy 500 Race
Simon Pagenaud will lead the 2019 IndyCar 500 starting grid at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Sunday as he seeks to become the first European driver in seven years to win the annual 200-lap showcase.
We will find out for sure soon after the conclusion of the 2019 Indy 500, but solid estimate for the total purse is right around $13 million. Over the last four years, the total purse for the Indy 500 has dropped by about $100,000 each year. Last year's total Indy 500 purse of $13,078,065 was lowest amount since 2013.
There are 33 drivers in the field for Sunday's Indy 500 to split a purse of roughly $13 million, with the race winner taking home roughly 20 percent of that purse. We would say "do the math" to figure out the rest of the payouts, but it's not that simple. (We explain below.)
The 103rd Running of the Indianapolis 500 is schedule for Sunday, May 26, 2019. The greatest drivers in racing will compete for racing immortality in "The Greatest Spectacle in Racing" at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Join us Memorial Day Weekend and see who will drink the milk and kiss the bricks.
There are remarkable changes in the edition. Apart from the fact that Gainbridge is going to present the event, NBC channel is going to broadcast the event. The teenager has two top-10 IndyCar Series finishes this season but is due to undergo his most demanding test yet.
As for those still in contention, no one has more Indianapolis 500 winning experience than Helio Castroneves. He has three crowns to his name and can tie level with A.J. Foyt, Al Unser Jr. and Rick Mears as an all-time record-holder should he emerge victorious on Sunday.

Deep learning and its place in the learning hierarchy
From Deep Learning by Ian Goodfellow and Yoshua Bengio and Aaron Courville
Deep Learning
Data scientists, statisticians, software engineers, technical managers interested in learning about what is deep learning, the state-of-the-art techniques/concepts and the range of applications in which they can be used.
You should have some familiarity with linear algebra, probability and information theory. The course text's chapters 2 and 3 can be read in advance to gain this background. You should also be able to run open-source tools and install them on your personal computer. You should be sufficiently familiar with Python to write programs to read/generate data and process it in appropriate data structures using relevant packages.
This course takes place online at the Institute for 4 weeks. During each course week, you participate at times of your own choosing - there are no set times when you must be online. Course participants will be given access to a private discussion board. In class discussions led by the instructor, you can post questions, seek clarification, and interact with your fellow students and the instructor.
At the beginning of each week, you receive the relevant material, in addition to answers to exercises from the previous session. During the week, you are expected to go over the course materials, work through exercises, and submit answers. Discussion among participants is encouraged. The instructor will provide answers and comments, and at the end of the week, you will receive individual feedback on your homework answers.
Time Requirement:
About 15 hours per week, at times of your choosing.
Students come to the Institute for a variety of reasons. As you begin the course, you will be asked to specify your category:
- No credit - You may be interested only in learning the material presented, and not be concerned with grades or a record of completion.
- Certificate - You may be enrolled in PASS (Programs in Analytics and Statistical Studies) that requires demonstration of proficiency in the subject, in which case your work will be assessed for a grade.
- CEUs and/or proof of completion - You may require a "Record of Course Completion," along with professional development credit in the form of Continuing Education Units (CEU's). For those successfully completing the course, CEU's and a record of course completion will be issued by The Institute, upon request.
- Digital Badge - Courses evaluated by the American Council on Education have a digital badge available for successful completion of the course.
- Other options - Statistics.com Specializations, INFORMS CAP recognition, and academic (college) credit are available for some Statistics.com courses
Specializations are an easy way for you to demonstrate mastery of a specific skill in statistics and analytics. This course is part of the Intelligence and Security Analytics Specialization which teaches statistical and machine learning methods for detecting anomalies, identifying images, and processing data from sensors.
The required text is Deep Learning (MIT Press, 2016) by I. Goodfellow, Y. Bengio and A. Courville.
A freely available html version is available at http://www.deeplearningbook.org/ .
It will be supplemented in the course by other technical papers, also available online.
The assignments will use TensorFlow.
Instructions for installing TensorFlow can be found here:
We recommend installing Python 3 (>= 3.4) and pip3, although
TensorFlow can also be run using Python 2 (>= 2.7) and pip.
It is possible to have both versions of Python on your computer
and switch between them for different purposes.
One advantage of Python 3 is that it uses Unicode natively,
which is often convenient for language processing tasks.
If you are using a computer with a CUDA-enabled graphics card, try to
install CUDA (>=8.0) and cuDNN (>=v6) and integrate them into TensorFlow.
Otherwise, you will still be able to complete the assignments in CPU mode
(but some of the models will be run on a smaller scale).
Some assignments will build on the tutorials and software available at
For convenience of download, it is highly recommended that you
have github installed on your computer (git is easy to install and
available for almost any operating system).

Kaycee is one of my 2017 Senior Reps from Columbia High School. She texted me one day asking to do a water session (styled/themed sessions give me LIFE ya'll) and literally the next day, my amazing MUA Laura texted and asked to collaborate on a water shoot!
True story.
And so this session was born. Of course we did traditional senior photos.
We decided on Cornerstone Church for our location. If you've never been there, I'd highly encourage it! It's such a beautiful place!
Laura did such a fantastic job on Kaycee's makeup. Pretty sure that wing was sharp enough to cut someone. ;p
Kaycee is currently taking medical classes so she wanted to incorporate that into her senior photos!
For the water portion of the shoot, we were lucky enough to be able to use a friend's pond in their backyard. Now of course (because I'm terribly unlucky), we happened to do this shoot the coldest weekend so far of the season.
Of course.
But it was all good because Kaycee is a trooper! If you were following me on Snapchat at the time, I'm sure you enjoyed all the behind the scenes shots my MUA Laura took on my phone. At one point, I looked like a frog trying to position myself so I could get the shot without getting my camera wet!
I froze my butt off, nearly slipped and fell and got at least 5 gallons of water in my rain boots. BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!

Eddie Butler, Jon Gray make good early impression throwing to hitters
Everything about them is different. Eddie Butler is wiry 180 pounds, with a quick smile and lively quote. Jon Gray is a horse, weighing 235 pounds. He's more reserved, opening up only as trust is gained.
Yet everything about them is similar. They are the Rockies' top two pitching prospects. They have reached 100 miles per hour on the radar gun, Butler in the first and final game last season. Gray isn't sure if he topped it last year in the minors — he likely did — but knows he pulled it off against Kansas and Virginia Tech in his junior year at Oklahoma.
They threw to hitters for the first time on Monday. Gray impressed them with his delivery. He has a bit of hop that creates timing issues as the arm follows, leaving his fastball with late jump. By instruction, Gray was throwing only fastballs and changeups.
"I wish I could have thrown my slider. I am looking forward do that," said Gray of his best out pitch against right handers. Gray let it go a few times, admitting that he keeps his best fastball in reserve because he doesn't have to pitch at 100 mph.
Butler's movement remains startling. He was overthrowing early in his session, but his sinker improved with less effort. It bores in on right-handers. His changeup is unique because it pushes across the plate in the high 80-mph range.
Manager Walt Weiss has cautioned both pitchers not to try and make the team with every side session. He said Monday that he's looking for "pitchability" in their early spring performances.
The Monday video roundup:

In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. C Band Lnb Circuit Diagram. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.
Each fuse is going to have a suitable amp rating for those devices it's protecting. The wiring is merely a bit complicated.

This has VERY deep implications folks….very interesting.-A.M.
by Staff Writers
Beijing (AFP) Dec 04, 2013
British Prime Minister David Cameron faced demands Wednesday for the return of priceless artefacts looted from Beijing in the 19th century, on the last day of his visit to China.
Cameron travelled to the southwestern city of Chengdu on the third day of what embassy officials said was the largest ever British trade mission to the country.
British officials say deals worth 5.6 billion pounds ($9.2 billion) have been signed so far on the trip, but Cameron has been derided by both Chinese state-run media and the country's sharp-tongued Internet users.
The prime minister last Friday set up his own microblogging page on Sina Weibo, China's version of Twitter, attracting more than 260,000 followers by Wednesday evening.
He invited netizens to ask questions, saying he would aim to reply during the visit.
One of the most popular questions was posted by a prominent Chinese think-tank, the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, which is headed by former vice-premier Zeng Peiyan and includes many top government officials and leading economists among its members.
"When will Britain return the illegally plundered artefacts?" the organisation asked, referring to 23,000 items in the British Museum which it says were looted by the British army.
The British were part of the Eight-Nation Alliance that put down the Boxer Rebellion at the end of the 19th century, a popular uprising against the incursion of European imperial powers in China.
To the Chinese, the ransacking of the Forbidden City, and the earlier destruction of the Old Summer Palace in Beijing in 1860 — about which one British officer wrote: "You can scarcely imagine the beauty and magnificence of the places we burnt. It made one's heart sore to burn them" — remain key symbols of how the country was once dominated by foreign powers.

How vital it is for the church to help families keep their children in the faith!
Children of college age, too, I would think, when the church can act "in loco parentis"… if there is a church there to do so!
OK BJS folks,
As I wrote on the National Mission Conf thread below; listen to this carefully, and mirror the wording in your (paper copy) letters to the MNN, MNS and LC-MS presidium on the ULC sale. This is a "Witness, Mercy, Life Together," Koinonia Project, Synodical unity issue. Let's even say the ULC "owes" MNS $3.2Million. Our answer should be : Matt 18:29. Once again, Pastor Harrison has put the thin edge of this wedge just where we need it to save ULC. Lets keep tapping the other end w/ our prayers, dollars, and respectful "Witness, Mercy, Life Together," letters to absolutely everyone we can think of.
Pax Christi+,
-Matt Mills

Contact me off list to help me understand how I can imbed this on my school's face book account??
President Harrison,
Do you know the work of Voddie Baucham, including "The Centrality of the Home in Evangelism and Discipleship"? http://www.christianbook.com/centrality-home-evangelism-and-discipleship-audio/voddie-baucham/9781933431338/pd/431338
Here are his principles:
1. The Bible gives the responsibility for discipleship of children to fathers. Not mothers, youth pastors, or Sunday School teachers.
2. If a child does not have a Christian father, churches should have a Youth Pastor for those children.
3. The Youth Pastor should be an older man who has raised and discipled his own children.
These are revolutionary ideas.
Also see http://www.dividedthemovie.com which is available to watch free online through September.
Definitely we should be in prayer over this intense warfare for the souls of our children and the future of the church. I can't help but wonder if this little (and I mean little) address was a means by which the head representative of the LCMS can point to this and say that the issue has been addressed — anything short of this could be pointed to as being completely negligent and out of touch. In other words, he just covered himself (putting it nicely).
I submitted the following Letter to the Editor of the Lutheran Witness on 4/17/10, which was never included in the magazine. Please hear what is on my heart as I share it with you now.
I am a mother who was around when all of this cultural nonsense came barrelling through the LCMS like a train that we were all expected to board. There was no discussion; Scriptural authority was not consulted; and the church reduced itself to "enticing" prospective members. Simply being faithful to the Gospel was not in vogue. Many of its faithful members did not know what had just hit them. There was a lusting after the apparent significance of the non-denominational mega churches that were visibly cropping up all over the place at that time. With this came a wide open gate philosphy which allowed wolves to come into the fold, adding only to the attendance count and bringing with them the anticipation of increased offerings. Is it any wonder we have seen sheep scatter? Families have been pierced as they have watched their children walk away from the doctrinal truths they themselves have embraced. The "programs" that were put into place were no more than distractions filled with entertainment, peppered with "good works" in which the youth could participate while giving off an illusion of purpose. Those who truly belonged to the flock were unprotected within their own gates.
I now see a church whose doctrine I love, that embraces a philosophy I can not endorse. I grew up with a love for God and genuine concern for my neighbor; a high regard for Holy Scripture and the Sacraments; and an honor for Martin Luther, a great father of our faith.
So…when is the real work going to begin in cleaning up this failed experiment where the world was enticed into the church instead of the church equipping its saints to go out into the world and make disciples? Meanwhile, it is urgent that we repent and prayerfully intercede for a generation that has been left for lost. Let us trust in our Baptism and that of our children and be better stewards of all that God has placed in our care, else He should take away from us (LCMS) that one priceless talent (doctrinal truth coming soley from Scripture), which we have been so tempted to bury; and place it in more faithful hands.

Gold Demand In This Key Market Just Surged 82%
The biggest story in gold the past year has been India. With the world's former largest gold importer seeing a 21 percent fall in shipments during 2016, to just 676 tonnes.
But news this week suggests India's gold demand is coming back to life — for the first time in nearly a year.
Preliminary statistics on India's February gold imports showed a major lift. With gold experts GFMS estimating that the country brought in 50 tonnes of bullion during the month — up 82% from the 27.4 tonnes Indian buyers imported during February 2016.
That's a rare uptick for India's imports. Which have generally been registering lows over the past several months.
The return of India to the gold market makes sense. Given that many of the factors weighing on demand in 2016 were temporary — including a jewellers strike early in the year, and a cash crunch triggered by demonetization of small bank notes in November.
The demonetization effect had been weighing on India's gold markets even into January. But the strong February import stats show that the worst may now be over, with Indian consumers making their way back to the market.

Speaking to Ok! Magazine, Olivia said: "We'd like our own show.

The couple haven't ruled out appearing on another reality series however.
Olivia added: "We'd love to do I'm A Celebrity: Get Me Out Of Here together, even though we're both scared of spiders."
The couple, who got engaged last year after Alex proposed during a romantic trip to New York, have already let cameras follow their journey, with Olivia appearing on Say Yes To The Dress.
The show's host, designer David Emanuel, told The Sun Online that Olivia was very different to how he expected.
He said: "I have to say, the picture I saw of her – I try and keep an open mind of people – she's completely and utterly the opposite of what I thought she would be.
"She was sweet, she was charming, she was a little bit over-awed, she was like any bride...

Restaurants, hotels, resorts, dry cleaners, greenhouses, farms, offices and warehouses are among the many businesses in Michigan that rely on propane.
Propane remains one of the most economical sources of heat for large warehouses and factories. Because of its low, nontoxic emissions, propane is also the fuel of choice for powering indoor forklifts, torches and welders.
Propane is also the best choice for backup generators for businesses since it can be stored indefinitely, and will not deteriorate over time (like gasoline) or gel up in winter (like diesel).
Additionally, more than 60% of alternative-fueled vehicles nationwide run on propane Autogas, including buses, fleet trucks, forklifts, lawnmowers and farm tractors. Propane Autogas is the third most popular vehicle fuel, next to gasoline and diesel.
Many vehicle manufacturers now make bi-fuel (or dual-fuel) models that run equally well on either propane Autogas or gasoline, and all of the major commercial lawn mower manufactures now supply models that run on propane Autogas.

Bringing Hope
Living Hope
Jade Watson was just 15 when she was sexually abused. To numb the pain she started drinking heavily and entered a marriage which turned violent and ended in divorce. One Sunday, after years of unhappiness, Jade heard the message of Christ on a TV programme and made the instant decision to give her life to Christ.
TODAY Jade is a married mother of three, serving as a Church Army evangelist in Winchester Community Prison. She is passionate about proclaiming the Gospel through both words and actions to prisoners and ex-offenders, and longs for them to know true freedom in Christ.
'They can relate to my broken background,' says Jade. 'By sharing my own story of being healed from alcohol addiction, they see that Jesus can change their lives. Most people regard them as worthless, but they are all made in the image of God-He loves and treasures them, and my job is to do the same, to make them feel valued and accepted. I encourage them to become ministers to others in similar situations'.
After a prophecy and having heard the testimony of an ex-offender, Jade went to the chaplain at Dover prison near her home and asked if she could help. She started visiting twice a week and ran two Alpha courses with 12 prisoners on each. All 24 prisoners either decided to follow Jesus or recommitted their lives to Him. Glyn, an inmate at Dover prison was befriended by Jade and encouraged to follow Jesus. 'He asked me how all the animals could fit in Noah's ark,' Jade recalls. 'I told him such questions shouldn't prevent him from coming to Jesus. That seemed to make sense him'.
He completed a correspondence course in theology and now is a parish priest. 'I'll never forget the day Jade first came to see me; says Glyn, 'the warmth of her smile and the friendly way she shared her story with me when I was a very scared young offender. She encouraged me to come back to Jesus. I will always be grateful to her.'
Paul Fitzpatrck, a Church Army evangelist who came to faith whilst serving a prison sentence, puts it like this: 'Prisoners don't need to be told they are sinners-they know that already. They want to know if we have an answer, if we can offer them hope. They respond to Jade, not because she brings the hope of Jesus to them, but because she is living proof of that hope'.
Valley of Hope
'What happens when people leave prison?', asks Ralph Upton, a Church Army evangelist who set up the Valley of Hope project for ex-offenders in the Welsh valleys. Their natural support networks are often non-existent, inadequate or criminal and private landlords are understandably reluctant to take them on. 'How can we expect them to cope and to avoid re-offending?' Ralph and his team provide tenancy support and practical guidance on aspects of daily living like managing finances and handling emotions. They bring hope through the love of Jesus Christ, and encourage local Christians and churches.

The migration to a Mac-Intel offering is expected to bode well for Adobe, which receives nearly half of its Photoshop and Creative Suite revenues from Mac users, said Kevin Connor, senior director of Adobe's digital imaging product management.
"People will move to the (Mac-Intel) products at the same rate they move over to the new systems," Connor said. "It will take some time for the transition to happen, but it's inevitable that it will."
For Apple, the transition could not come soon enough. The computer maker recently attributed a slowdown in sales to users' reluctance to buy new systems while they await a wider selection of products designed for Mac equipped with Intel processors.
Nonetheless, Adobe is moving forward with its product lineup for the new Mac-Intel systems.
Adobe earlier this year released a public beta of its photography software Lightroom, designed to help manage workflow tasks ranging from printing to controlling tone to managing images.
"Adobe is very committed to Mactel (Macintosh-Intel), but we also just completed the Macromedia acquisition and people now have higher expectations of integration between the two," Connor said. "We have to balance our schedules carefully."

text: A few weeks ago, I posted about the collaborative bottle print on the Toast to Coast dress on ModCloth. Now I am here to share the 2 dresses available in this print through Mata Traders: the First Dance Dress and the Starling Pockets Dress. This retro cocktail design was actually a collaboration between myself and 2 interns who worked at Mata Traders last summer. We each illustrated a few bottles and glasses, only to combine them all to create this snazzy pattern. To make this print as literal as possible, the 3 of us would have to have been drawing over drinks! This is a great example on how collaborating is a wonderful thing. While I have my own style and ideas, it is really great to work with others and break out of comfort zones. In the last 2 collections I designed for Mata Traders, I have been more of a designer and teacher rather than a collaborator. Writing about this pattern now, makes me itch to collaborate again. Maybe I can achieve this goal this upcoming winter when we start designing for Spring 2015 (thats right, we work wayyyyyyy in advance!)

The sport of MMA has evolved from disciplines throughout the world and fighters train for years to refine their skills to put them on display at the highest levels. None of those disciplines will be featured in this list. The fights below vaguely resemble Vale Tudo combat in all their various forms with the exception of sanctioning bodies, legitimate referees and any regard for a participant's safety. Essentially, it's a list of the most brutal, ruthless, and craziest fights to ever take place outside the umbrella of the law. Some of these will make you laugh, some will make you cringe, the rest might even make you hungry for tacos. Whatever your reaction, we insist that you not participate in any unsanctioned MMA competitions. Instead, whenever you feel like you need to get some aggression out, your best bet is just to load up EA Sports MMA and unload digital Ubereem's fury against Shinya Aoki with Pride rules enabled. Your other option is to buy the first season of The Wire and realize that you missed the greatest drama of the entire decade because you were too busy watching re-runs of the Dog Whisperer in that television time-slot. We hope you learned your lesson and bought a DVR. We also hope you enjoy our list of Top Ten Underground Fight Leagues.
The first spot on our list comes courtesy of our very own Cat Von C. She told us about these tweens from Georgia back in March who would head to their bathrooms in between classes, fight for thirty second at a time, then go straight to their next class as though nothing happened. That's pretty raw. If only the rest of us were smart enough to think of a bathroom fight league when we were in middle school, we'd probably have spent more time hanging out with all the cool chicks in juvee.
We're moving onto high school brawlers in this fight organization. Rather than keeping things hidden in bathrooms or basements, these kids fight in their parent's yards and nobody seems to get in their way. What you'll see in some of these videos is a bunch of kids who actually look like they train in various MMA disciplines and get together to practice after school. While fighting is still somewhat taboo in society, these kids really break the suburban mold by skipping their high school football tryouts and jumping right on the MMA bandwagon instead. There are other high school fight clubs out there, but this particular one makes the number nine spot on our list because it has a fully-loaded Youtube channel of backyard brawls and they weren't caught like those Howard Fight Club n00bs. Check out one of the better fights from the Backyard Octagon:
Back in January, I was helping my friend Joe shovel snow off his driveway until he launched a snowball at my head. I dropped my shovel, shot for a double and stuffed his face full of snow. Eventually, his wife yelled at us to cut it out and finish cleaning off the driveway; we obeyed. If we all lived in Russia, Joe would probably get her to shovel the driveway while we invited over some more friends and this is what her front yard would look like:
According to their website: Felony Fights is 'physical combat between convicted criminals who served time in prison for "unusually violent" crimes; brought together in underground locations in an attempt to harm and gain power over their opponent through the use of force with blows or weapons.' Additionally, there are no rules or judges, so pretty much anything goes. While a part of this belongs filed-away somewhere in our WTF section, the other part of it belongs on this list. See what happens when you take ex-convicts who learned to fight in prison and pin them up against one another for no reason besides getting it on film for our entertainment. .
If you watch some of their more gruesome clips like this one or this one, you'll find all the reasons why you should never fight outside of a controlled environment. Not only do unsanctioned fight have disaster written all over them from the get-go, the outcomes are often life-threatening late stoppages. We can't reiterate enough that you don't try this at home.
It would just be irresponsible of any top ten list that utilizes the word "backyard" without paying royalties to Kimbo Slice. Perhaps his MMA career didn't pan out the way he hoped, he still remains one of the most famous viral video sensations in the world. Dude single-handedly got millions of viewers to start watching professional MMA with his debut in Elite XC. Still to this day, Kimbo is responsible for three of the four most watched MMA events in history, which earns him the number six spot on our list. Regardless of where his career takes him, he'll always be the toughest guy at any BBQ and the videos below are proof.
Din Thomas should probably have his own top ten list of reasons why he's the man. After his win over Gabe Lemey, he got on the mic and called out Chris Brown, letting Rhianna know that he's ready to lay an ass-whooping on the recording artist whenever she says the word. Din also has a 52 volume set of DVDs where he teaches you 1001 submissions. No, we're no not kidding. He's already claimed the number eight spot on our top ten list of fighters you should build a shrine to and I feel like I should be handing him a lifetime achievement award. All I can offer him from a journalistic standpoint is moving up the ranks to number five on this list for his work in creating an unsanctioned underground fight club in his gym in Palm Springs, Florida.
After being arrested the charges were eventually dropped once the judge saw that all his fighters were actually students trying to gain experience and the entrance fee went towards a raffle instead of illegally paying fighters for unsanctioned bouts. Din Thomas had all his basis covered, and thankfully, he didn't have to spend five years in jail where his awesomeness would go to waste. While we don't have video of this particular underground fight club, it still gets a spot on the list. If you don't like it, Din will exile you to a fruit stand in Nicaragua where you'll wear straw hats, smoke cigarettes, and sell bananas until you're old and frail.
You start with a two fighters in a ring, and that's where the similarities between Shockfights and any other combat sports end. There are no judges, skill levels, weight classes, or rules; it's just you, an opponent, and 3,000,000 volt tasers strapped to each hand. That's not a typo. I proofread it. The only way to win is via submission or "shock out". While their website was taken down and the organization seems to have disappeared for good, Shockfights used to boast disclaimers such as 'too dangerous for those "ultimate" fighters…' and we still have old screenshots of what their attempts at marketing used to look like. Below is the only known footage of Shockfights actually taking place. Let's all be collectively be thankful as a human race that this loony hybrid of MMA disappeared forever.
DaDa 5000 is a legend in Florida. While he didn't invent backyard brawling, he did gave it a face-lift and a classy pair of clear stilettos. Dude has everything from a food court to VIP seating for backyard MMA enthusiasts. The guy he hired to man his BBQ grill looks just like Melvin Manhoef and that right there is worth the price of admission alone. Everything about DaDa's showa looks legit, except the actual ring made out of caution tape and a somewhat pooly-maintained lawn. Even Ultimate Fighter contestant Bruce Leroy was spotted honing his skills before he got the call from Spike TV. I could go on about DaDa 5000 for days, but let him tell you all about it instead.
Of all the wild happenings in New York City, somehow MMA is still publicly frowned upon (and illegal). In a city with nearly 5,000 bars and just about 5,000 bar-fights every night, it would seem that New York has a moral dilemma with sanctioning MMA. Besides collecting tax revenue to help alleviate that $54,500,000,000 in state debt, people like NY Assemblyman Bob Reilly continue to lobby against the sport insisting it's no different than cockfighting.
New Yorkers are generally pretty creative people, and they often find ways to get around stupid legislative interferences like this one. The folks over at No Mas have been long-time supporters of underground boxing culture and it's subsequent influence on society. They've been slowly turning their focus towards MMA in recent days; particularly the depths to which local fighters go to participate in a sport their state won't allow them to. Check out this short video they created showcasing NYC's Underground Combat League.
Some of these fighters have been participating in underground fights like these for the past decade for no prize money or recognition. They do it merely for the love of the sport. This community is relatively close knit and it's been kept behind closed doors until now. If this video proves one thing, it's that MMA brings people together like Thanksgiving, except instead of eating turkey and wearing corny sweaters, they beat each other up because it's the only thing they want to do in their free time. The longer the folks in Albany keep alienating MMA as 'unfit for society', the longer that enthusiasts will continue to participate in underground events like these. Although underground MMA is rawesome, legalizing the sport can get these fighters paid and keep them safer while they compete.
There's a cult following behind our pick for the number one underground fight league. If you've never heard of Rio Heroes, you probably still think the tooth fairy exists. This underground fight league took the internet by storm and capitalized on the fans that weren't quite ready to give up soccer kicks and bare-knuckle brawling under the rest of the world's unified rules. Heaps of Brazilians got their first taste of MMA through Rio Heroes, and even more fighters throughout the world followed in the organization's footsteps of underground fighting. This was the closest thing you'd ever find to Fight Club Fighters like Flavio Alvaro (27-8) and Pedro Santos (24-7) were Rio Heroes Champions before they were ever recognized in bigger promotions. These guys were like the Kimbo Slice and DaDa 5000's of the Brazil, except their skills translated seamlessly into successful pro careers.
Between DVD sales and web-streamed PPVs events, they actually made some decent money which translated into average prize purses of around $2,000 (USD) for each participant. While it doesn't sound like much, it's about $2,000 more than most fighters earn at any other underground event. Taking into account how far that kind of money can take you in Brazil, and you'll find that these promoters did more for the combatants than what some 'legitimate' organizations do for their fighters today. You could spend weeks going through all their underground fights on Youtube, pinning grapplers against strikers and men against women. Eventually Rio Heroes was raided by the police and the people responsible for promoting it were slapped with minor charges of aiding illegal gambling. Along with a small fine, they basically got away with running the most famous underground fight organization ever. Well worthy of the number one spot on our list.

I also found with my new tri-pod with the 90 degree/extention feature... I've been able to get to different perspectives that can create some really fun images.
I can't speak more volumes about having a really nice tri-pod. Mostly for anything that requires an apeture higher than 5, the tri-pod is a MUST.
Here is Hampton (my hamster) adding to his modeling portfolio.
He really hated business trips, but he knew that the bedding, food and toy lifestyle that he had become accustomed to had to come from somewhere.
This was actually a composition of six different photos to get the perfect hamster booty.
First, I took a picture of the hallway that I wanted. I had to put a stand-in for Hampton, so I used a tea box. This helped me get the depth of field that I wanted for the hallway. This is where the tri-pod was critical. My hallway is really dark, so I needed to have a slower shutter speed to get in the right light. I had the tripod on the lowest setting, the tilt/pan at 140 degrees (used my lens bag to be the counter weight) and set a timer to let the camera take the photo.
Then I re-did that shot with myself in it and the suitcase. I always like to have the photo without people in it first, in case something messes up and I need to photo-shop in a correction.
Then, I got three photos of Hampton. Hamsters don't sit still, had he sat still nicely I would have only needed one, but I got one that I liked his ears, his little body and then the tail.
Then... I put it all together. :)
Which is similar to what I did here.
In this case, Hampton wasn't in his ball when I took the photo to begin with.
(4 photos).
First photo, the stair case (using the tri-pod).
Second (the ball).
Third, Hampton pushing up against the glass of the cage.
Fourth, one of Hampton in the ball rolling around.
I had to re-create him the ball using the Overlay function in Photo-shop, otherwise he'd be a blurred thing of tan.
I think I could have made this photo so much better (get the glare out), but this was part of my 100 days of photos where all of the photos need to be taken in the 24 hour period around that day (sometimes I'm late, but it's a rolling 24 hours).

We're all on some sort of journey, aren't we? Check back here
periodically to find out more about G. Elizabeth Kretchmer's journeys
through the literary world and through life.
T Minus Approximately 122 and Counting…Fast
I did it. I set the date for my book launch party.
July 24
Talk about taking that giant leap of faith. Until now, writing a book, as hard as it was, seemed like a bit of a fairy tale. I was just playing, really. Even as I sent it off for critique after critique among my writerly friends, and went through untold rounds of revision, and even as I sent it off then for its requisite supply of rejections (which felt far more real than any fairy tale I've ever known), I still felt somehow like my novel was like a floating soul in the afterlife, drifting on this current here and bouncing along on that air stream there. But when I sat down with my launch party host (the fabulous Kim Henry of University Book Store in Bellevue), it suddenly felt very, very real.
So much to do in four months! So much to do before…
July 24
I had built a long list of to-do's several months ago, with self-imposed deadlines that gave me some margin for error. But the margin has been swallowed up by those nasty little time gremlins, and now I'm down to the proverbial wire.
When I was young, I watched NASA launch rockets and space shuttles into space. I listened to the T Minus announcements and felt the tension beneath my skin rise as the numbers came closer and closer to zero. I tried to imagine how the astronauts felt as they heard those T Minus calls, knowing they were quickly approaching the most exhilarating, and possibly life shattering, ride of their lives. Even now as I imagine them strapped back into their cockpit seats, I get that rush of adrenaline.
While I don't suggest a little ol' book launch is anything akin to a rocket launch, I'm feeling that same sort of adrenaline rush I used to feel on behalf of the astronauts. I've strapped myself into my seat and there's no getting out. My novel, The Damnable Legacy of A Minister's Wife, will be shot out into the world on
July 24
and one of three things will happen. It'll skyrocket to the top of the best seller list (least likely, I'm aware), it'll settle into a comfortable little orbit in the world of books (I'd be delighted with this), or it'll malfunction and crash-land back down to earth fast (the nightmare we all dread).
Of course, other things will be happening on that fateful day,
July 24
In Frankie's hometown of Chicago, the Cubs will be going after the San Diego Padres and folks downtown will be listening to Made in Chicago: World Class Jazz at Milennium Park.
In Ryan's beloved Bend, families will be lazily floating the Deschutes River.
Up around Lynn's Denali, hikers will be embarking on an Archaeology Citizen Science exploration of early Alaskan cultures.
And somewhere in the heavens, Beth may very well be witnessing the Delta Aquarids Meteor Shower.
But here in the Seattle area, crowds will hopefully be flocking to the University Book Store in Bellevue for my book launch party, where there will be free food and drinks, raffle prizes, my book, and me.
When? July 24, 2014.

Since 1940, the REES Theatre in Plymouth, IN has provided arts, culture, and family entertainment. In 2009, sadly the theater closed, leaving a void in the community.
Actual REES Theatre Photos since 1940. The Gem Theater was owned by Ellis & Stewart Rees and The REES by Stewart Jr. and Opal.
REES memorabilia shares the many people, including well-known stars, who performed at our theater.
The REES History
The theater was originally built by Badgley Construction Company. Alves O'Keefe (engineer and architect) designed the REES Theatre as well as many buildings in Plymouth and the surrounding areas. The REES compared favorably to any theater in the Midwest. The cost was $75,000 in 1940. Construction began in August 1939 with tearing down the third floor of the former VanVactor building. Twelve steel beams were delivered with the longest being 42' and weighing approximately four tons. The building footprint is 41.5' x 126'. A 1940 newspaper article stated, "Mr. Rees has neglected nothing and the beautiful play-house reflects his vision and the ability to put that vision into concrete form."
The Art Deco Design
The REES Theatre was built with Art Deco design and included the most modern conveniences.
The original seating for 600 was installed with the latest style of theater chairs. Smaller aisles and seats let them accommodate larger crowds.
The chairs consisted of fully-padded mohair backs and spring edged cushions. Larger chairs were added in the 1980's reducing the seating to 400, with ample space between rows. The original seats cost just under $10. each.
Fluorescent lighting was used to light the theater when films were not shown
Excellent heating and air-cooled in the summer, had a variation of just two to three degrees.
Screen size was 20' wide and 14'6" high. Today's screen is 34' wide and 16' high.
The marquee was completely restored in 1997.
REES Theatre Ownership
In 1920, there were three theaters in Plymouth: The Orpheum, The Gem and The Rialto. The Gem Theatre opened in 1913. Today, there are also three in Plymouth: Showland, Tri-Way Drive-In and The REES Theatre.
March 18, 1926 - In 1925, the Ellis Rees Family bought the Gem Theater located on East Garro Street from C.W. Metsker and re-opened it in 1926 with the showing of "The Keeper of the Bees" boasting seating for 375.
February 1, 1940 - In August of 1939, Stewart "Stewie" Rees and his wife Opal purchased a three story brick structure known as the VanVactor Building at the corner of Michigan and LaPorte Street and after just seven months of work had their opening premier with "Remember the Night".
1950 – 1972 - The theater was managed by Wilbur and Faye Weatherhead who cared for it as if it were their own.
1953 – 1983 - Culver residents Evert & Sadie Hoesel retained ownership.
September 1983 - Jeff Housouer became the new owner
May 1987 - John & Gwen Hoesel owned and operated the theater with sons David and Frederick.
December 22, 2009 - The REES Theatre was closed with the final showing of "Old Dogs".
September 2013 - The landmark theater building was purchased by local merchants Brian and Lori Van Duyne and Jim and Judy Vinall.
January 2017 - Property purchased by Wythougan Valley Preservation Council. The REES became a not-for-profit with the initial financial donation made by Randy and Eleanor Danielson. The REES Project Committee is overseeing the renovation/restoration.
January 2018 - Department Of The Treasury recognizes The REES Theatre Inc. as a public charity under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)3.
February 2018 - Property was transferred from Wythougan Valley Preservation Council to The REES Theatre Inc.

For around 30 years now, R Mahaveer Chand's unnamed antique store has been in the business of finding and selling lost treasures, antiques, paintings, curios and furniture.
Dig through Mahaveer Chand's Antique Store for Curios and Pieces of History
- Nearest Metro Station: Vidhana Soudha
A time traveller's tale
There is no big board that tells you that you have arrived at the Mahaveer Chand's antique store. Just bright blue, peeling walls and a couple of tables stacked with all sorts of things, from used microwaves to delicately-painted jugs with elegant spouts. Ali, Mahaveer Chand's young assistant, dutifully dusts each item. He's blissfully unaware of the value or the history behind of the curios. He leaves that to his boss, Mahaveer Chand.
When Mahaveer Chand comes striding in, things immediately perk up. When his parents moved to Bangalore from Rajasthan in the 40s, Mahaveer Chand informs us, they started a finance business that saw customers pawning off heirlooms and valuable items. This got Mahaveer Chand curious and he started collecting the old discards. Soon, he ventured into the antique business full time and continues till this day.
Old is gold
Housed at the very home he and his siblings were born in, every room overflows with treasures, and we're convinced only Mahaveer Chand can pinpoint where any given item is. Old shelves and showcases are crammed with vintage clocks, cameras, porcelain figurines and even a defeated looking, slightly chipped Jesus nailed to a cross. We then move to a narrow room that's occupied by a towering steel shelf, haphazardly strewn with metal knickknacks. There are miniature chairs, that fit in the palm of your hand from the 70s, heavy beer mugs from sports clubs in Bangalore, stout kettles and intricately carved boxes.
But it is the last room that'll fetch millions. It's here that Mahaveer Chand is his most animated self. He swiftly opens steel almirahs and brings out files with stamp papers and memos from the Raj, handwritten notes from British royalty, a music book that features a rare, commissioned portrait of Queen Victoria, and fading newspapers that showcase the 1937 coronation of King George VI. There are also winding gramophones, typewriters, and the Big Red Story Book that's over over 3 feet tall! Ask him which one of his treasures he'd be reluctant to sell, Mahaveer Chand wistfully says that there are too many of them.
