Historic Convent Transformed Into Spectacular City Hall in Quebec, Canada
The redesign of this historic convent (initially built in 1881) as the city hall and municipal offices re-establishes its presence at the center of community life. The project- repurposed by Affleck de la Riva Architects in Quebec, Canada- creates a dialogue between the restored heritage building and a contemporary addition housing a new entry lobby, an elevator and a generously glazed stair-tower. Creating a new entry on the lateral street is part of an overall site strategy that relocates parking to the back of the building and frees up the front of the site for a new formal garden.
As a foil against the traditional elements of the historic structure – a mansard roof, limestone masonry, a sculpted wood gallery – the addition is conceived as a series of interlocking rectangular volumes. The vertical arrangement of these volumes creates an asymmetrical tower that echoes the old convent's central bell-tower. Combining artisanal materials like copper and slate with contemporary materials such as plate glass, aluminum and sheet steel, the addition provides a spacious, naturally lit lobby and up-to-date vertical circulation. The new city hall respects the interior organisation of the original convent, centered on an entry hall and a two storey chapel. An ornate plaster vault, decorative columns and stained-glass windows in the chapel have been restored and the space has been repurposed as the municipal council chambers.

Show Me: A Few of Our Favorite Things
If you know anything about Miss Cayce's or Show Me Decorating, it's that we LOVE colorful things! That's why Coton Colors fits us so well! It's so bright and colorful and well, it just makes you happy! Our first favorite thing is the Happy Everything Platter.
It's so great because you can change out the attachments for different seasons or occasions. This platter comes in neutral and white, for those of you that prefer a little less color. The platters also come in a mini size, too.
There are also cookie jars, canisters, and soap pumps you can put attachments on as well.
Next, we have the table swap. Now, this is fantastic! We love these dishes. There are charges, large plates, salad plates, and bowls. You can mix and match any colors you want! Isn't that awesome? Here is some inspiration from a table we decorated at an event.
A white table setting is offered as well. This is great because if you don't like a ton of color you can just add pops to fit your taste! This would be really great with all the different serve-ware options they have. It would add just the pop of color you need to the white.
Seasonal plates and table decor is also a must!
Here are some of the cutest candlesticks, too! So fun, but yet classy.
So, I am sure you can see why we love Coton Colors so much! There is just so much you can do with it! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Happy Decorating Y'all!

Yep, Riverland bar nestled in below Princes bridge throws a wild gin festival…Junieperlooza is the name. It's all about that riverside atmosphere, good brews and "one-handers". CAPI Trade Secret's float's on in to get the lowdown on Juniperlooza and chicken dinners with super-manager Anna.
The word is that we're being treated to a 'staffy' (pronounced 'staff-eee')?
It's the delicious chicken dish
Please, run us through it
Grilled chicken breast, green goddess sauce, charred corn, radish, red capsicum and fried shallot salad, which is gluten free.
Get in me, it's the sign of a good venue when they feed their staff
Yep, they look after us.
Good. Okay, so, on that note, what is your go-to knock-off?
We've got a great fridge full of beers at the moment. I would go the Killer Sprocket, it's a dark amber ale…deadly.
Good choice. Are you shifting many good beers? Is it just corporates drinking Carlton draught or are you're evolving people's expectations of what a good drink is?
No. We're definitely evolving because we're a table service venue as well, so it's easy to help customers make better choices, as opposed to Carlton draught.
I think that's amazing, if you come down here you could easily assume, being tourists and corporates, they would just drink sh** but it's really cool to see, loads of good moves going down.
Tourists will often ask for the beers they know, but the older generation and corporates are coming down asking for things they've never heard of. They ask our staff for suggestions and trust me, they (staff) have drunk them all and are happy to recommend our drinks.
Cool, do you have a stand out on the back bar?
The Hippocampus Organic Vodka and Distillery Botanica Garden Grown Gin Australia's most troublesome bottle to pour from, but it is also very gorgeous and delicious.
Soo Juniper? Looza?
What's that?
Australia's first gin festival, it was bloody great. We had 21 distilleries pouring Australia's best gin mixed in with weird wonderful performing artists and 2000 punters…Let's just say there were Zebras.
How entertaining, count us in next year
Will do we hold it annually, hopefully, the weather turns on again.
Riverland New Year's, what went down?
We had a sweet cocktail party looking over the fireworks, the boat literally sits in front of Riverland and shoots colourful wonders into the new year.
Before we cruise what's the best selling dish? What cranks?
Our One Handers. They're small dishes which pair well with our drinks.
One Handers?
Yep, Mac & Cheese croquettes…get at me. We also run a bratwurst barbie outside on weekends which brings everyone down to the Yarra. Not to mention the ice cream.
What if you don't eat meat?
We cater for everyone.
You have been lovely to chat with, thanks, Anna.
Juniperlooza is held annually at Riverland Bar during the month of November for more details visit: http://www.riverlandbar.com/

|Urine Cell-Free Circulating and Viral Nucleic Acid Purification Midi Kit
|20 preps
Urine Cell-Free Circulating and Viral Nucleic Acid Purification Midi Kit
This kit provides a fast, reliable and convenient method to purify and concentrate high quality, high purity and inhibitor-free cell-free circulating DNA, circulating including exosomal RNA as well as viral DNA/RNA from fresh, frozen or preserved urine samples from volumes ranging from 2 mL to 10 mL.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen's proprietary resin separation matrix. The kit is designed to isolate all sizes of cfc-DNA and circulating RNA, including microRNA, as well as all sizes of exosomal RNA. Norgen's Urine Cell-Free Circulating and Viral Nucleic Acid Purification Kits provides a clear advantage over other available kits in that they do not require phenol/chloroform or any protease treatments. Moreover, the kit allows the user to elute into a flexible elution volume ranging from 50 µL to 100 µL. The purified nucleic Acid is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a any downstream applications including PCR, qPCR, methylation-sensitive reverse transcription qPCR, reverse transcription PCR, methylation-sensitive PCR and Southern Blot analysis, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, expression array assays, and NGS.
Recent evidence indicates that cell-free circulating (cfc) nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA, including exosomal RNA, in urine contains valuable information for the discovery of biomarkers that can help with early detection of certain cancer types, for monitoring the disease status as well as for the detection fetal DNA. Moreover, urine has been widely used for the detection of viral infections, including HIV, HCV and HBV.The advantage for using urine as a source for cancer biomarkers is that it can be acquired in large quantities without using invasive procedures, and repeated sampling from the same individual is applicable, which facilitates longitudinal studies. There are many advantages favouring the use of urinary nucleic acids for cancer biomarker discovery over blood, tissue samples or other bodily fluids, including: (1) urine is non-infectious for HIV and less infectious for many other pathogens; (2) the profile of urinary nucleic acids is similar to that in urine or serum; (3) nucleic acid purification from urine is technically much easier because of its low protein concentration (1000-fold lower than blood).

When the photographer Roger Ballen's video for "I Fink U Freeky," by Die Antwoord, came out earlier this month, I watched it over and over again, amazed by how it brought his still images to life while also conveying the personality of the band. It got me thinking about other video collaborations between photographers and musicians, some of them surprising, others made by photographers who are prolific in the form. Here's a selection of ten, all made by directors with large bodies of photographic work, along with comments from most of the artists.
- Die Antwoord, "I Fink U Freeky," directed by Roger Ballen and Ninja.
Ballen told me that he's known the band members Ninja and Yo-Landi for years, and that he's long wanted to make a video for them. "Unfortunately, they were living in Cape Town and I in Johannesburg, and as a result the logistics never seemed to have worked out," he said. On New Year's Eve, though, he took a photograph of Die Antwoord for the New York Times Magazine, and they decided to finally make it happen. Two weeks later, the video for "I Fink U Freeky" was in the can. "We started with my photographs for ideas and then mimicked them in the sets," Ballen told me. "Most of the sets started with almost a 'Roger Ballen still life' and then expanded on the particular theme cinematically. In many aspects, a great work of cinema contains an abundance of powerful still images."
- R.E.M., "The One I Love," directed by Robert Longo.
"With this video, I wanted to make pictures that looked like the music," Longo told me. "There are no actors, just friends and family of the band. I went down to Athens, Georgia, to film it. They didn't want to lip sync, which was fine with me, but other than that they really gave me free reign with the project. It all came about because Michael Stipe knew my art, and had seen the other videos I'd done for Golden Palominos ("Boy [Go]") and New Order ("Bizarre Love Triangle"). We became friends, and he asked me to do the project with him."
- PJ Harvey, "Hanging in The Wire," directed by Seamus Murphy.
Murphy directed and shot films for each of the songs on Harvey's recent album "Let England Shake"; there's now a DVD with all twelve films. "Polly had seen an exhibition of my Afghan work in London and got in touch," Murphy told me. "She sent me a demo of the album, stripped down, acoustic, raw, and very beautiful." He shot some portraits of Harvey, then left again for Afghanistan, where he experimented with shooting video with the compact Canon 5D Mark II camera. When he told her about that work, she asked him to make films for her songs.
"The rest was left up to me," he said. "It helped me enormously that I was able to go off on my own and make these films, without a crew or other people. That would have been interesting—and at times, easier—but it would have been a different result. Some of the strangeness comes from being alone. Lost and lonely, and trying out ideas just to keep sane." I asked Murphy how his still photography translated into these videos. "In still images, at least for me, it's the moment, the timeless infinity of that moment," he told me. "In moving images you have other elements to consider and exploit: movement, sound, sequencing. But it's all photography."
- New Order, "Blue Monday 1988," directed by William Wegman.
"Michael Shamberg, who I knew from the Kitchen, invited Robert Breer and myself to collaborate with New Order on 'Blue Monday,' " Wegman told me. "Robert was to use his film-animation techniques on video images I shot with the group. I had just started working with my dog Fay, who, compared to my previous Weimaraner, Man Ray, was strangely very shy and vulnerable in spite of her powerful presence." But she was obsessed with the tennis ball, Wegman notes in a blog post about the video. "Thinking back, the mid-eighties were a transitional and odd period for me," he said. "The time was marked by several collaborations with other artists and filmmakers, like Mike Smith and Betsy Conners."
- Britney Spears, "Everytime," directed by David LaChapelle.
"In 2004, I wanted to make a video that was a portrait of the other side of fame—the horror-show side—and Britney wanted to do the same thing," LaChapelle told me. "This was prior to her marriage, children, divorce, and the media tabloid feeding frenzy that followed. We thought the video should end with her drowning in a bathtub, and then a birth in the hospital to signify being reborn or transformed. But the record company didn't want her to 'die' in the video, so we made it a 'dream' sequence, and she rises out of the water at the end smiling." I asked LaChapelle about the relationship between his photography and music videos. "My photography is usually narrative and conceptual, so the transition from stills to film comes somewhat easily for me," he told me. "I enjoy the variety and challenges that different mediums present."
LaChapelle's current solo show, "Earth Laughs in Flowers," is on view at Fred Torres Collaborations through March 24th.
- Spank Rock, "Car Song," directed by Luis Gispert.
"Spank Rock saw my film 'Smother' at Art Basel and connected with the imagery I was working with," Gispert told me. "Around the same time, not knowing he had seen my film, I had seen Spank Rock preform in New York and had become a fan. We had not met yet. Our mutual friend Al Moran from OHWOW gallery made the introduction. After our first meeting it became clear a collaboration was fated." I asked Gispert, who works in many mediums, about making a music video in relation to photography. "I consider myself a sculptor who cheats with photography and film on occasion," he told me. "The music-video genre is new to me. Historically it has served as a conduit for an artist to delve outside of the fine-art context. It was challenging and exhilarating to work with a form that has a broad audience."
- LCD Soundsystem, "Someone Great," directed by Doug Aitken.
The collaboration between Doug Aitken and LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy goes both ways: Aitken, whose work includes photography, sculpture, installation, and video, directed "Someone Great" in 2007, and Murphy contributed to Aitken's recent work "Song 1," which can be seen at the Hirshhorn Museum through May 13th.
- Spoek Mathambo, "Control," directed by Pieter Hugo and Michael Cleary.
"Spoek used one of my images for a mix tape without asking my permission," Hugo told me. "I phoned him up to berate him—turned out he was recording a new album around the corner from my studio. He came to the studio to discuss our dilemma, and by the time he left I agreed to do music video for him. He's a super sweet talker." I asked Hugo about his experience of making a music video in relation to his photography. "I split the responsibilities of directing with Michael Cleary, which made everything considerably easier," he told me. "I found the entire process much less painful than working on a still shoot. Probably because I don't have any emotional investment or attachment to the medium. Music videos are so ephemeral. I certainly didn't lose any sleep over the shoot. It was frivolous and fun."
- R.E.M., "Überlin," directed by Sam Taylor-Wood.
"I don't like making music videos per se, but I don't feel that any videos that I've made have been 'music-video-like,' " Taylor-Wood told me. "I tend to see them as a scene from a film. I don't really differentiate music videos from the films that I've made—it's just that music videos are much quicker!" This video stars Taylor-Wood's husband, Aaron Johnson, who also played the young John Lennon in Taylor-Wood's first feature film, "Nowhere Boy," from 2009.
- Nirvana, "Heart Shaped Box," directed by Anton Corbijn.
"I worked for two days in Seattle with Nirvana as a photographer in August, 1993," Corbijn told me. "Afterwards Kurt told me he was interested to see my Echo & the Bunnymen videos, as Courtney had told him about these. So those were duly sent off, and a few weeks later I received a fax from Kurt. He had written a very detailed script for the song 'Heart Shaped Box,' and drew the set idea as well. It was extremely precise and detailed. I had never met a musician who was able to visualise his own music so well. In any case, my videos tend to be made from my ideas, based on the music. Kurt had sent me a script that became ninety per cent of the video. I added some stuff (the big woman 'mother earth,' the road through the poppies, the fake birds, fake butterflies, etc.), but this was very much Kurt's video. He wanted the film to be shot in Technicolor, but that was not possible, so we shot in color, then transferred to black-and-white and then hand-tinted every single frame—a process that took weeks, but it made the video look very up whilst the imagery was really dark. Clever, in retrospect, as MTV never asked for any changes. Kurt asked me again for the next video, 'Pennyroyal Tea,' but I felt that I couldn't top the 'Heart Shaped Box' video and turned it down. He then said without me he would never make another video, and unfortunately he never did."

When was the last time you read Psalm 118? Chances are great, it has been a while! The first four verses state "His [God] love endures forever". Many Christians and Muslims will say these words often. But what about the days you suffer? What about those who see no hope and maybe don't know that God loves?
Verse 5, "In my anguish I cried to the Lord"…have you ever been in anguish? What did you do? If you lashed out in anger to those around you, did that help? The last part of verse 5 tells us, "He [God] answered by setting me free." My friends, the world binds you to it; it will never set you free! Only God and the love of Jesus Christ can and will set you free. Verse 6, "The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?" Verse 8, "It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man."
How many people do you see each morning, dragging into work, tired, grumbling and without smiles? The only life available to us is only going to be found in the LORD Jesus. If you are reading this, then you are alive…that, my friends is a blessing! You have been given another day to do something good. If you already know Jesus, then be a blessing to someone else. If you do not know Jesus, then I invite you to think about the redeeming blood of Christ, poured out for you for the forgiveness of sin; whose love invites you to turn (repent) and invite Jesus into your heart. Verse 24, "This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it."

This course has two main parts: 1) a theoretical exploration of a number of the philosophical issues surrounding college schooling and a pair of) a sensible factor focusing on how philosophy could be taught in secondary colleges. Medically, that is dubious, while the educational version—forcing students to work, until they exit the system, on subjects that do not interest them and for which they don't have any facility or motivation—has even much less advantage. Rorty, A. (ed.), 1998, Philosophers on Education: New Historic Perspectives, New York: Routledge.
Instead of being taught in philosophy departments, philosophy of training is often housed in departments or schools of schooling, similar to how philosophy of regulation is usually taught in law schools. As was pressured on the outset, the sector of education is large and accommodates within it a virtually inexhaustible variety of points which are of philosophical interest.
Philosophy and the Textbook: A textual content ebook is a vital means for the conclusion of educational goals. Constructing upon the disciplinary foundation of philosophy the unit explores philosophy because it relates to education. These should be written in accordance with the philosophy of time, cultural, social and political background of a society or nation.
It's derivative sense the term Schooling may be understood as Educare and EducereEducare is a Latin word and it means to nourish to deliver up or to raise. Philosophy gives ideals, values and principles; education works out those ideals, values and rules.
Regardless of the case might, philosophy is the again ground of each sort of curriculum. Within the words of Dewey: Training is laboratory through which philosophic distinctions become concrete, and are tested". As sketched earlier, the domain of schooling is vast, the issues it raises are nearly overwhelmingly numerous and are of nice complexity, and the social significance of the sphere is second to none.

Edited excerpts...
Q1).How has 2016 been for VMware India in terms of cloud infrastructure and virtualization technology market demands and customers?
The market opportunity that India provides for VMware's global growth businesses stand testified with the encouraging adoption of its offerings across portfolios. The most exciting development for us was redefining our cloud strategy.
VMware's new Cross-Cloud Architecture extends our hybrid cloud strategy with new public and private cloud capabilities that enable our customers to run, manage, connect, and secure their applications across clouds and devices in a common operating environment.
We also announced strategic cloud partnerships with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and IBM this year, which will help our customers, be more agile by using a seamlessly integrated hybrid offering to make the most of private and public cloud environments.
We reached a phenomenal milestone in our end user computing business by selling over a million licenses of AirWatch, our marquee mobility solution for enterprises with notable wins such as Air Works, Fullerton, Indigo Airlines, Wipro, among others.
Network virtualization is pegged to be one of the single greatest infrastructure transformations. The enhanced security, automation, and continuity provided by VMware NSX has been a key enabler in witnessing customer growth of 400 percent over the past 18 months. In India, the business is growing at 100 percent with NSX finding adoption amongst big players across sectors and mentions as global use cases.
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is another area that we have recently introduced and are witnessing rapid traction in the Indian telco market. Our telecom solution – vCloud NFV enables wireline and wireless service providers to deploy an elastic business model for cross-cloud services and service enablement while simplifying networks and reducing total cost of ownership.
Q2).How do you see 2017 in term of enterprise tech demands in India and what technology will make big mark next year?
As organizations across industries are undergoing digital transformation in the mobile cloud era, migration to the cloud is accelerating across multiple dimensions, with use of both private and public clouds expanding at a rapid rate. Most enterprises already are or expect to operate workloads on multiple cloud environments. This will lead to the growing popularity of hybrid cloud owing to sensitivity of data that should reside in a company controlled private cloud and also the need for greater collaboration between different business groups.
Hyper-Converged infrastructure (HCI) will go mainstream as it allows IT organizations to take a simple, modular infrastructure approach, which frees more time for differentiation. 2016 was a huge growth year for HCI, with VMware vSAN (formerly Virtual SAN) customers now numbering greater than 6,000 and VxRail customer numbers in the hundreds globally.
We're on the cusp of something very special in the history of networking and security—a major shift in how we interconnect and secure workloads. True SDN, such as VMware NSX, will be used by thousands of enterprises in 2017 to take their network and security operations a monumental leap forward. Complete network stacks, inclusive of load balancing and security, will be deployed in minutes and managed across multiple datacenters and clouds.
Through micro-segmentation, applications will realize security granularity equivalent to each application having a dedicated data center. This solution will also lay the groundwork for end-to-end network encryption, which has long been interesting but elusive.
End-User Computing (EUC) will become increasingly strategic as enterprises are increasingly centralizing EUC decision-making because it crosses laptops, desktops, web, mobile, identity, smart devices, content, and user or consumer experience. Just as the maturation of cloud brought about new roles like the cloud architect, 2017 will usher in the increasingly strategic role of Digital Architect.
IT will see significant and exciting changes in the coming years. 2017 will be a key turning point, as we realize massive adoption of the underlying technologies that empower agility, redefine our approach to security, and make data, flexibility, and customer intimacy even more strategic.

Trunken müssen wir alle sein! / Jugend ist Trunkenheit ohne Wein; / Trinkt sich das Alter wieder zu Jugend, / So ist es wundervolle Tugend. / Für Sorgen sorgt das liebe Leben, / Und Sorgenbrecher sind die Reben.(Drunk! We should all be drunk! / Youth is intoxication without wine; / If old age can drink itself back to youth, / that's a marvellous virtue. / Trouble is part of our precious life, / and vineyards counteract trouble and strife.)
I paid a preliminary visit the premises of Ottawa's Maple Leaf Almrausch Club yesterday, shall be going there again in a month or so. It's 15 minutes from the eastern edge of town, down the 417, Exit 104.
I was amused to find that Goethe poem in Gothic script on the wall of its Europahalle, liberally hung with flags. Downstairs is the Schenke (taproom) with long wooden tables and corner booths. Here's where you'd pick up your tankard of beer and sway to the music. On the top level is an indoor rifle shooting range offering noisy target practice, and outside are the soccer fields.
Almrausch is a word meaning Alpine rose (a kind of azalea native to the Alps). In 1964, when the Maple Leaf Soccer Club and the Almrausch Bavarian folk dance Group decided to amalgamate, the result was the Maple Leaf – Almrausch Club Inc. The new Club obtained a plot of land and built their chalet-type Clubhouse. Spring is celebrated here with a Maifest (May Day Festival) and autumn with a traditional Oktoberfest. The Club also holds dance parties: the Schuhplattler musicians and dancers stage a Bavarian Festival every spring; the Schützen (Shooters) present the Schützenfest (Shooters Festival) in the spring and the Jägerball (Hunters' Ball) in the fall. The Christkindlmarkt (Christmas Market) takes place every year on the third weekend in November, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. In the Schenke you can order snacks, or hearty meals (Gulasch, sausages, etc.) well as cakes, coffee and Glühwein. A Schnitzel Dinner is offered to members and non-members on the third Friday of every month from January to April.
You don't need to be a German immigrant in order to enjoy this place, but it helps.

2016 was a banner year for diversity across the entertainment industry. The black experience was highlighted across the silver and small screens thanks to critically-acclaimed films like Moonlight, Hidden Figures, and Fences and beloved TV shows like Black-ish, Queen Sugar, Underground, and more. And that gave the African-American Film Critics Association (AAFCA) plenty to honor during its annual awards ceremony.
Founded in 2003, the African-American Film Critics Association is the premiere organization of African-American film media professionals, representing a diverse group of critics from across the nation that cover film, television, and media. The organization held its eighth annual awards ceremony at Taglyan Complex on February 8, gathering a host of film critics and industry titans to honor some of the best entertainment of the past year.
AAFCA co-founder Shawn Edwards was excited by the wealth of quality, artistic entertainment produced by Hollywood and beyond over the past year. As Edwards noted, "Our members had a plethora of outstanding movies, documentaries, and TV shows to choose from this year." Edwards went on to state that, "It was an exceptional year in terms of the quantity and quality of films about the black experience. And while this by no means solves the diversity issue in the film industry it was definitely refreshing to have such a wide-range of exceptional work to choose from to honor and celebrate with out approval."

While the event, hosted by Nischelle Turner, saw a host of worthy winners, it was Moonlight that truly stood out. Writer/director Barry Jenkins' film, centered on the coming-of-age of a gay black youth, earned several awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Ensemble. Awards season favorite Mahershala Ali also won Best Supporting Actor for his role in the film.
Luckily, Jenkins was on hand to receive the films awards, as was actress/singer Janelle Monae, who received the Breakout Star of the Year award for her performances in Moonlight and Hidden Figures. Other stars in attendance included director/producer Lee Daniels, who received the AFFCA's Vanguard Award, as well as director John Singleton, Manchester By The Sea producer Kimberly Steward, Underground creator Misha Green, and performers including Tommy Davidson, Joe Morton, Marcus Scribner, Kendrick Sampson, Dawn Lyen-Gardner, Tina Lifford, and many more. The cast of OWN's Queen Sugar was also on hand, with the series accepting the Best TV Show (Drama) award.
The African-American Film Critics Association's 8th Annual Awards Ceremony was truly a memorable occasion, honoring a banner year on Hollywood diversity that will hopefully usher in more outstanding stories centered on the black experience. And Taglyan Complex's luxurious accommodations provided the perfect backdrop for the illustrious organization's gathering of film critics, writers, producers, directors, and stars.

BellyButtonBoutique.com's Top 5 Push Gifts
She carried your child for 40 weeks, went through a body transformation, battle ailments, bouts of sleeplessness and was in labor for an immeasurable amount of time. What does one give as a gift in recognition of all that she has been through? Being that most men are not really good shoppers, I thought that I would highlight a few gifts that say, "Thanks for going through it all". Here is BellyButtonBoutique.com's list of the Top 5 Push Gifts:
1. A gift card to DSW – After wearing "sensible" shoes for the past 6 months, she is ready to burn them and move on. And lets face it, pregnancy has probably caused her feet to grow out of every pair of shoes that she owns. A gift card from DSW or her favorite shoe place will bring instant tears to her eyes. Personalize it with a picture (like the sonogram) for an extra special touch.
2. Hand stamped "I Am Blessed" Necklace by KLA Custom Creations – After experiencing the ability to grow a human being inside of your body and bring it into the world there will be no question of how blessed she is.
3. Gift certificate for baby concierge services – Yes, a baby concierge. Now that the little one is here errands and other daily tasks will start to pile up. Premier Baby Concierge offers services to help moms transition during this time. Services include: personal assistant, education, support, and more.
4. Postpartum Chiropractic Adjustment – Getting back into shape may be a primary concern for mama, but making sure that the body is ready for activity is step one. According to dcdoctor.com, "Chiropractic adjustments quicken recovery time and assist the body in normalizing overall pelvic and spinal biomechanics following pregnancy". Find a chiropractor that specializes in postnatal adjustments. Specifically, the Webster Technique.
5. Meal Delivery – Yes, she will be on maternity leave, but that doesn't mean that she has the time or energy to cook. A wonderful gift would be having her breakfast, lunch and dinners prepared by a local chef who will stock the refrigerator with the meals in advance. Chefs are trained to create meals for special diets and allergies and can even come up with a special menu for new mommy.
I'd love your comments, what do you think is a great push gift?

Out of The Blues
Forgive me, brothers and sisters, for I have sinned. Until very recently, I'd only seen The Blues Brothers once, years ago, and I couldn't stand it. No surprise there. An innate inability to appreciate the classics on first viewing hangs like a double-knotted albatross around my neck (count The Big Lebowski and Easy Rider among other colossal claims to shame). Sometimes I come around, though, like last weekend, when I took a fresh look at John Landis's epic musical comedy.
It was rough going at first. Twenty minutes into the film, and I'd barely cracked a smile. In Landis and co-writer/star Dan Aykroyd's meandering absurdism, I recognized a lot of what annoys me about so much modern comedy: the humor felt referential instead of intentional, as if the novelty of adapting a Saturday Night Live skit to feature length was supposed to be inherently hilarious. The nun jokes and the used condom joke and the over-the-top black church service where James Brown helps Jake Blues (John Belushi) bask in the cyan light of Jesus felt at once corny and dry--desperate, even.
There's a paradox here, somewhere, since The Blues Brothers came out in 1980, decades before non-sequitor throwback narratives became fashionable and every property with even an ounce of name recognition got the big-screen treatment. I was reminded of George Carlin's take on The House of Blues:
You ever see these guys? Don'tcha just wanna puke in your soup when one of these fat, balding, overweight, over-age, outta-shape, middle-aged male movie stars in sunglasses jumps on-stage and starts blowing into a harmonica? It's a fuckin' sacrilege...It's not enough to know which notes to play, you gotta know why they need to be played.
Indeed, the film reeked of vague parody, of a kind of Hollywood snobbery disguised as a blue-collar comedy wrapped in cartoonishly affected "Chick-yeah-goo" accents (the same kind SNL would make famous again in the mid-80s with their "Super Fans" sketches). As Jake and his brother, Elwood (Aykroyd), made their way from Joliet prison to the Chicago orphanage and points beyond, I wondered if The Blues Brothers would amount to anything more than a road comedy with some musical-number pit stops and a tired, save-the-orphanage destination.
Then came the car chase. Sorry, the first big car chase, the one in which our outlaw heroes lead several cop cars through the Dixie Square mall. My modern eyes had seen the closed-quarter outrageousness of exploding windows and bodies leaping out of the frame before, but two things stood out in the middle of this scene:
1. Hardly anyone got hurt. I'm sure the shopper characters were terrified, but the damage was limited to gaudy bargain barns and vehicles driven by those authoritarian squares known as the police.* Compare this scene to any of today's big-budget blockbusters,** and it's like watching a Bugs Bunny cartoon versus a 9/11 YouTube compilation. With the exception of one building collapse, whose wreckage is clearly comprised of Styrofoam "bricks", all the carnage in The Blues Brothers takes place on quiet streets, open roads, or in plazas where there's enough room to get out of the way. Revisiting the "awesome" Nick Fury takedown in Captain America: The Winter Soldier a couple days later, I couldn't help but wonder how many people were killed or severely injured in the Heat-inspired heavy-arms-in-mid-day-traffic set piece.
2. It was real. Today, even when a filmmaker goes the "practical" route with stunts and special effects, they still employ a ton of digital trickery to fill in gaps. This technology didn't exist in 1979, to the degree that Landis and company needed to deploy, so ninety-nine percent of the on-screen destruction--from the mall chase, to the dozens of police cars pursuing the "Bluesmobile" down Lower Wacker Drive, to a scene in which Jake and Elwood run a pack of Nazi demonstrators off a bridge--was all done using stunt performers and actual vehicles in real settings.
For me, at least half the thrill of this movie came from marvelling at what went into making it (from permits, to insurance, to just plain guts and imagination). Friend and fellow critic Patrick McDonald, of The Chicago Film Tour, informed me that John Landis destroyed 103 cars in filming The Blues Brothers. They die spectacular deaths, hurling into one another and forming piles of busted metal that look like a giant, invisible child going to town on his toys. The scenes escalate in scale and mischief, and I finally got what Landis and company were laying down.
The music helped, too. Aside from the surprisingly conventional James Brown number, The Blues Brothers pops with numbers by Ray Charles, Cab Calloway, and, of course, the Brothers themselves. My favorite is Aretha Franklin performing "Think", as she dares her diner-manager/guitarist husband (Matt Murphy) to hit the road with Jake and Elwood. The moment is emblematic of the movie's rebellious spirit, skewing notions of domestic roles just as the titular characters push the boundaries of cultural identity via their obsession with (and some might say appropriation of) the blues scene.
In Jake and Elwood's quest to preserve their childhood home, we catch a glimpse of a segment of rapidly changing society clinging to its uniquely American blues heritage. The blood had barely dried from Viet Nam (not to mention segregation, the official version of which was barely a decade-and-a-half behind us); on the horizon lay an era of unbridled prosperity for those who prefer their country white and polite. The Blues Brothers are criminals, yes, and Landis and Akyroyd don't shy away from giving them their comeuppance, but they are, in the truest sense, righteous anti-heroes. Their wanton destruction and refusal to "come along peacefully" aren't just catalysts for action scenes and jokes; they are rallying cries against gentrification that would have likely been silenced if the characters were actually as black as they thought they were.
The Blues Brothers take on Nazis, rednecks, big business, and a government that will go to ridiculous lengths to tuck away undesirables and dissidents. They live with transients, hang out in a pawn shop, and show a reverence to struggling black diner owners that they are incapable of mustering while recruiting their sold-out maître d' buddy at his place of employment (a fine-dining restaurant so buttoned up that it serves thousands of dollars' worth of champagne and shrimp cocktails to a couple of obnoxious loud mouths--simply because they looked like they should have a table there).
Jake and Elwood's buffoonery isn't cheap, and it isn't random. It's wickedly funny, subversive protest. They know why every note needs to be played. And now, so do I.
*The cops in this film are ostensibly trying to do the right thing (protecting, serving), but they are mostly faceless stunt drivers who exist to get Roadrunner'ed by the free-spirited Jake and Elwood. Those that do have faces (like the great Steven Williams, whose character, I'd like to think, quit the force after the events of this movie and started the Jump Street program) are grumpy and vengeful and impossible to root for.
**At $30 million, The Blues Brothers was, in its day, one of the most expensive comedies ever made.

This weekend my beautiful baby boy is turning 4. I can't believe it.
We went from this:
|Griffin at 6 weeks, his 1st smile caught on camera
To this, in just 4 short years.
|Griffin, almost 4, looking almost 10.
I will spare you my tears, and instead talk about what Griffin would like to talk about every second of every day, his STAR WARS BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!!! Even though the kid has never even seen Star Wars, his library books have told him enough. He loves it, he can't wait until he's old enough to see the movies, and he likes all the bad guys. Nice.
For the party this weekend, I was also told emphatically that he ONLY wanted to invite boys. NO girls allowed. I mentioned that I was a girl as was his sister, and he said fine, you can come and so can Gemma, but no other girls. Whew! Close call buddy - so close you might not have had a party (as I don't see Joe planning and executing a birthday party on his own). ;-)
Of course I will do a full round up of the party next week on my blog, but I wanted to give you a sneak peek of some cute things I found on Etsy (of course) that will make the party that much more festive.....
First, a cute banner we needed (Yoda language):
|Star Wars Banner from Etsy Shop The Polka Dot Prince
Then, cupcake toppers we wanted:
|Star Wars Fondant Cupcake Toppers from Etsy seller Party NV
Finally, a craft we must make:
|DIY pool noodle-light sabers we'll be making at the party
Does that peak your interest? I have found a lot of cute ideas for this theme, so I started a Pinterest board called Star Wars Birthday.......something tells me we might have another one of these as Star Wars never gets old!
Stay tuned next week for a full party posting......death star cake pops included.

Latest from Michael Sears, Michael Robotham are featured in this week's giveaway
This week, Crimespree magazine, in conjunction with Friday Reads Facebook page, is offering you a chance to win a copies of SAVING JASON by Michael Sears and LIFE OR DEATH by Michael Robotham
To save the ones he loves – he must risk everything. The electrifying new novel by the author of the award-winning Black Fridays.
Jason Stafford used to be a hot Wall Street trader, went too far, and paid for it in prison. Now a financial investigator, he's been asked to look into rumors of a hostile takeover of his firm, but he has no idea it will turn his whole life upside down. Suddenly embroiled in a grand jury investigation of Mob-related activities on Wall Street, and threatened by some very serious men, he is thrust into witness protection with his young autistic son. And then his son disappears. Has he been kidnapped, or worse? With no choice but to act, Stafford has no choice but to come out of hiding and risk everything to save his son, his firm, his pregnant girlfriend—and himself.
About The Author:
Michael Sears was sixty-one when his first novel, Black Fridays, was published. After nine years as a professional actor, he got an MBA from Columbia University and spent more than twenty years on Wall Street, rising to become the managing director in the bond trade and underwriting divisions of Paine Webber and, later, Jefferies & Co., before heeding his father's advice: "When it stops being fun, get out." He did so in 2005, and returned to what had always given him the greatest joy—writing—studying at NYU and the New School.
The temptations that drag down some of his characters are well known to him, as are the insider-trading perils that form the core of the new novel. The autism is known to him, too, from his extended family, and he has seen the struggles and the rewards.
Sears holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland, and he lives in Sea Cliff, New York, with his wife, artist Barbara Segal. They have two sons.
Why would a man serving a long prison sentence escape the day before he's due to be released?
Audie Palmer has spent ten years in a Texas prison after pleading guilty to a robbery in which four people died and seven million dollars went missing. During that time he has suffered repeated beatings, stabbings and threats by inmates and guards, all desperate to answer the same question: where's the money?
On the day before Audie is due to be released, he suddenly vanishes. Now everybody is searching for him – the police, FBI, gangsters and other powerful figures – but Audie isn't running to save his own life. Instead, he's trying to save someone else's.
Michael Robotham has created the ultimate underdog hero, an honorable criminal shrouded in mystery and ready to lead readers on a remarkable chase.
About The Author:
Michael Robotham is author of Life or Death, Watching You, Say You're Sorry, Bleed for Me, Shatter, and other novels of suspense. His novels have been translated into 23 languages. He is a twice winner of the Ned Kelly Award for Australia's Crime Novel of the Year and has twice been twice shortlisted for the UK Crime Writers Association Steel Dagger (THE NIGHT FERRY 2007 and SHATTER 2009) and twice for t
A former investigative journalist who has worked in Britain, Australia and the US, Robotham is one of the world's most acclaimed authors of thriller fiction. He lives in Sydney with his wife and three daughters.

Up, up, and arh-wooooooo!
Here is a fun custom from Superman comic #422 back in the 90s. It was not a very plausible storyline. Superman is attacked by a werewolf who knocks Superman unconscious and then steals his costume. The best part of the comic was definitely the black and white cover with only the title and the werewolf's eyes in red.
The hardest part about this custom was tracking down an affordable Superman minimate. I swapped heads and paws with the werewolf from the Strange Tales four-pack. I had to match the blue to get rid of Superman's red boots. For "naked" Superman I used some spare parts out of the scrap box with an old Superman hairpiece. I was able to re-create the Daily Planet tabloid and the comic book on the computer. The comic book was a delightful added touch for Superman to "cover up." He's also wearing some painted-on underwear behind the comic book. Overall, this was a fun custom duo to make. Be sure to check-out the other Superman creations on the CUSTOMS tab of the website. You'll find President Superman, Eradicator, Superboy, Clark Kent with Lois Lane, and Kryptonian Life Suit Superman.

Every year on Martin Luther King Day I watch Dr King's "I Have a Dream" speech. I lose my breath for a second, and marvel at the footage, the crowd, and wonder where they are today. I'm especially curious about the little girl in her father's arms, face turned away from the camera. Where is she today? Has she seen the footage? Does she recognize herself? Her father? Does she remember?
But I digress.
I also cry. But at a very precise moment. It's towards the end, when the video pans to the Lincoln Memorial for the second time and Dr. King quotes the Declaration of independence:
Now, I say to you today my friends, even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: - 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'
I think it get's me because it puts me in the past of the past, but also in the present.Seeing the past reference the past is an interesting thing. Especially when the ideas still feel so modern. It's the then and now, the them and us. This experience of time is confusing, yet familiar, and oh so blurry. And I feel overcome.
An iteration of a notion that has stretched back for multiple generations. While the specifics may have changed (though, not entirely) it suggests that there is still work to do. And maybe that there will always be work to do, and maybe it will always be the same work. Likely, that is the point of it all.
And I surprise myself each time by feeling hopeful, when it would be so simple to feel hopeless.
I pulled a few convictions out of MLK Jr's words that felt particularly affecting:
"To make real the promises of democracy"
"A brotherhood of mankind"
"Make justice a reality for all of gods children"
"It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment"
"We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline."
I suppose forever was meant sincerely.
It's amazing to consider the steps forward that have been taken, and all the steps back that came along with the progress.
But still I feel hopeful.
I'm no Dr. King, but I have a dream too.
I dream of world where we can live in harmony with each other and with the earth.
- People feel good!
- We have LESS: stress, processed food, pressure to consume—be it resources, products or media
- we can eat good food
- we support our communities
- time is NOT money
- gratitude and appreciation are second nature
- nature trumps science
- corporate greed is recognized and abolished
- the bottom line is trivial
- the insanity of genetically modified foods is recognized
- vegetable gardens and community farms dot every city and town across the globe and provide livelihood and fresh, healthy, sustainable options for sourcing food
- people eat together and celebrate together
- we laugh and sleep long and hard
- we experience the simple pleasures that we have always had, until someone told us what to dream
Maybe it's silly: too simple, too naive, would create unforeseen problems.
But for now, I'm hopeful.
Thank you Dr. King. Happy Birthday.

NT Youth Justice class actionMaurice Blackburn, Australia's leading class action law firm, is conducting a class action legal case on behalf of young people mistreated in youth detention centres in the Northern Territory, between 1 August 2006 and 27 November 2017.
The class action was filed in the Darwin Registry of the Federal Court of Australia on 23 December 2016, and is being managed from our Class Actions practice in Sydney.
Background to the class action
On 25 July 2016, ABC's Four Corners aired a report entitled 'Australia's Shame' which exposed the mistreatment of detainees in youth detention in the Northern Territory. In response to the Four Corners report and public outrage, the Commonwealth Government announced the Royal Commission into the Protection and Detention of Children in the Northern Territory.
In the wake of the Four Corners report, Maurice Blackburn received referrals from NT legal services for young people who had been similarly mistreated in youth detention. Our investigations revealed that this was very widespread. Maurice Blackburn filed the class action on behalf of young people mistreated in detention on 23 December 2016.
The Royal Commission handed down its Final Report on 17 November 2017.
Who is part of the class action?
The class action is brought by Dylan Jenkings and Aaron Hyde on behalf of all young people mistreated in any Northern Territory youth detention centre between 1 August 2006 and 27 November 2017.
Mr Jenkings and Mr Hyde are claiming compensation money for themselves and 'class members', being every person who:
- was detained in a youth detention centre (see below) in the Northern Territory at any time between 1 August 2006 and 27 November 2017
- while detained, suffered or alleges to have suffered bad conditions and treatment, as well as assault and battery and/or false imprisonment, including by being threatened and roughly treated or bashed by officers, handcuffed or otherwise restrained or held in isolation, beyond the powers provided by the governing law, the Youth Justice Act (NT) and Youth Justice Regulations (NT)
- was not a plaintiff in the following proceedings in the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory: No 16 of 2016 (21615113) and No 24 of 2016 (21617890).
The applicants claim that mistreatment and other bad conditions detainees suffered came about because of racial discrimination because around 90% of detainees were Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, and then all detainees were subjected to the bad treatment and conditions. Young people do not need to be Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander to be part of the class action.
Class members do not need to do anything now to be part of the class action, but if you register with us (see below) we will keep you updated about the case.
At a later stage, the Federal Court will give class members the chance to opt out of the class action if they do not want to be part of it.
For more information on the class action or whether you or someone you know is a class member, please contact Maurice Blackburn on the free number 1800 226 211.
More information about the case is in the Fourth Originating Application and the Fifth Statement of Claim.
Youth detention centres
Between 1 August 2006 and 27 November 2017, the following locations were classified as "youth detention centres":
- Don Dale Youth Detention Centre – at both its current and previous locations
- Alice Springs Youth Detention Centre
- Arunda House in Alice Springs
- Parts of Alice Springs Correctional Centre (the adult prison) from 25 March 2011
- Parts of Darwin Correctional Centre (the adult prison) from 19 August 2014
- Court cells 5 and 6 of the Darwin Magistrates Court from 12 December 2013
- Darwin Youth Justice Court from 15 February 2016.
Extension of claim period
The class action has been extended so that young people mistreated in youth detention up until 27 November 2017 are part of the class action.
Initially the case was only open to people who had been in youth detention up to the date the case was filed in the Federal Court, 23 December 2016. This was extended in November 2017 by consent order (by order of the Court with the Northern Territory's agreement).
Register your interest
If you think that you or someone you know might be a class member, please register so Maurice Blackburn can tell you what is happening in the class action. Or you can call Maurice Blackburn on the free number 1800 226 211 and we can do the registration over the phone.
Time limits
Laws often give a set time limit for a case to be started using that law. If a case is started after that time the Court cannot hear it. In this case the time limit is 6 months, but the Court can give longer in certain circumstances.
Mr Jenkings and Mr Hyde have asked the Court to give longer to themselves and all class members so that the Court can hear their cases. It will still be up to the Court to decide whether to give that extra time.
It doesn't cost you anything to know where you stand
We take calls 24/7

I took the day off to run an errand that "just had" to be done. Madelyn and Niece#2 passed drivers ed and wanted to get their school permits. Sister and I wanted them to get their school permits. So this happened…
Yes, immediately, they wanted to drive back to town to a softball game. Well, like ripping a Band-Aid off, I guess they were going to have to go at some point. They made it there and back, so I guess that is that.
We also got all of our projects signed up for the 4-H fair coming up next month. Now to complete them all. That was one of the things we worked on when we got home.
Goat hair cuts. This is not the most fun job, but it sure cools them down and since these girls are on full feed, it is important to keep them cool.
They were panting pretty hard when I started trimming them. Once I would get one side done, they would be breathing calmly. Unfortunately, due to time restraints, I only got Ginger, Zulu and Callie done today. Wynn and Wynona will have to wait. I also used this time to worm the girls and update their vaccinations.
This goof was standing in the buckets of water I filled to water the animals inside. Keep in mind she is about 3 feet from the kiddy pool I have filled for the dogs to lay in!
Finally to end the day, I had 2 games, finally together at the same field. Both boys played pretty well and I didn't get a picture because I was yelling, but Landon had a great hit to the outfield! Baseball season is winding down, only a week left before tournaments start.
Does anyone else feel like summer is going to fast?

How to Find Out about a Bank's Green Practices
To find institutions that you'll be happy banking with, first talk to your current financial institution about its practices. If they're not green enough, a quick Internet search of different local options may turn up a good alternative. Look for community-based institutions, which are often more focused on what's important to local residents than are larger nationwide organizations. Read through their Web sites thoroughly to find out about the programs and accounts they offer. Most also have an information line that you can call to ask questions; if the customer service representative doesn't have the answers, he or she can schedule an appointment for you to talk to someone who does.
When researching various banking institutions, consider asking about their practices in these areas:
What's the institution's lending policy? The lending policy is one of the biggest impacts that any financial institution makes, so finding out the kinds of customers that it provides money to is one way to determine how green a bank or credit union is. For example, does the company ensure that loan recipients don't trade arms, harm the environment, or exploit workers? If the policy doesn't clarify something such as this in writing, you can assume that it probably isn't concerned about what it's funding.
Is the institution a member of the Social Investment Forum? Many financial institutions in the United States that follow environmentally and socially responsible practices are members of the Social Investment Forum, which focuses on socially and environmentally responsible investing.
Does the institution provide an annual social or environmental report about its activities? If it doesn't, its annual financial report should have sections devoted to its eco-friendly or social investment actions.
What amount does the institution donate to environmental or social nonprofit organizations each year? This isn't about lending money; it's about giving money, no strings attached.

Scilla Elworthy on the I, We, World
Scilla Elworthy (seen above with Desmond Tutu) is a serial paradigm shifter. Thrice nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, she has been at the heart of world changing organisations from The Oxford Research Group, to Peace Direct, The Elders and now Rising Women Rising World. In each she has championed the integration of the I, We, World that The Alternative UK sees as the natural organising principle of any new politics.
Rather than try to capture Scilla's work in a single blog, we will be featuring her regularly. Here is a blog from her latest project which describes a new approach to integrated health which could, well, change the world.
"Imagine world where we looked at health from an integral perspective, where we had achieved a positive shift in our thinking – from health and wellbeing as a mere physical notion to taking account of the whole person – body, mind, spirit and soul.
Imagine health care systems designed to answer the question: 'what does it take for a human being to flourish?'
Imagine if our medical and health practitioners were rewarded according to how many of their patients were healthy, as is the case in China, as opposed to the present western system that rewards sickness.
This would entail seeing disease as dis-ease, and working to heal and restore a person to their wholeness – physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
It would require an evolutionary step and a breakthrough in consciousness across the medical and pharmaceutical sectors, shifting from a business model to a systemic one that prioritises people, purpose and planet over profit.
Imagine a system where investment in healthcare shifted from emphasis on ever more expensive reactive treatment using pharmaceutical drugs to treat symptoms, to a massive emphasis on prevention of the causes of disease.
This would include teaching children and adults about the necessity of exercise and healthy diet for the prevention of obesity and many cardio-vascular diseases, encouraging the growing taboo on smoking, the use of herbal infusions and natural antibiotics for the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections, and extending the approval and use of age-old systemic medical treatments such as acupuncture, homeopathy and chiropractic.
In building a world that works for all, massive effort would be invested in ensuring that the basics are taken care of for all. This means that every person would have access to the foundational elements that are critical to our survival: clean air to breathe, drinkable water, sufficient food for sustenance, shelter for protection, and an environment safe from harm.
It would also mean access to low cost drugs where necessary, and methodical information on, and access to contraception, since the planet is not capable of supporting our present population.
In the case of mental health and well-being, what might it be like if each person were respected for their difference, welcomed for their unique value and saw themselves as a contributor to their family, community and the wider world?
What if emotionally they experienced connection with a profound sense of belonging instead of isolation and inequality?
What if each person had access to support in alleviating suffering and training in mental and spiritual development for inner resilience and effective action? Such training would ensure practices and rituals that naturally expand self awareness and consciousness.
If we imagine a world where each person recognises the interrelationship between their personal sustainability and that of the earth, then we can conceive that both could flourish, and a destructive and out-dated system can be replaced by one that values the miracle of life."

Travel Blog – European Road Trips
We travel around Europe mainly by car and with tent. Sometimes we enjoy three weeks breaks and sometimes our trips are just a weekend-long adventures.
More posts will be translated into English soon.
The most beautiful sunrise in the Dolomites – Passo Giau
There are places you fall in love at first sight. You just open the guide, browse the pictures on the web, and you hit that one image, which burns instantly in mind. One look and thoughts go in the direction
Seceda and Val di Funes – photography spots in the Dolomites
You have seen it. I guess everyone has. Three pictures from the Dolomites appear in guidebooks, brochures and come back like a boomerang every autumn. White church on the backdrop of forest hills and sharp,
Vatican and the Vatican Museums
Staying in Rome and not visiting Vatican is like not trying a pizza or ice-cream when in Italy. Since the planning phase we knew we'd see the Vatican Museums and take a stroll along the streets, drawing
Trolltunga – 23 km to see a troll's tongue
The impression is almost surreal. Trolltunga − a flat, narrow and a more than a dozen meters long rock hangs 700m above a lake that winds like a snake. Formed by a glacier 10 000 years ago is now the main
Zürich – the city of delight and great pleasure
Lunchtime. One o'clock. The street is full of white shirts, ties and Prada women dress suits. A colourful T-shirts can be noticed only from time to time but obviously they are worn by some tourists or kids.
Teplicke Skaly – Rocks in winter
Wonderful but a freezy weather in New Year? What can be more interesting than going for a walk among most beautiful place in Czechia (Czech Republic).
Mount Rigi – Queen of the Mountains with a wreath of flowers in a crown
In a crowded room one can hear a voice asking repeatedly 'Who gives more? We have a current bid of 5.8 million, going once. Going twice. Then, the sound of a hammer fills the room. Sold! "The Blue Rigi"
Furka Pass and Grimsel Pass to Aletsch Glacier – a perfect day in Swiss Alps!
If you have just few days to visit Switzerland, it is extremely difficult to choose only several places worth sightseeing. Obviously, our bucket list always includes some mountains that are at the top
In pursuit of the slowest express in Europe
The distance between Thusis and St. Mortiz is only 60 kilometres – one would say that it's just a stone's throw. However, the Albula Railway needs one hour and a half to cover this short and even trivial
Hiking to the cliff restaurant – Äscher and Ebenalp
Somewhere behind the clouds a faint echo of a whistle signalised a train departure. It was around 600 metres below from a distant and invisible Wasserauen. The last sip of cold beer. A brief glance at the top
Lucerne – a magnificent steamboat cruise
Finally, the trail through the unexplored Alps has been traced. In the first half of the 13th century, a winding path across The Gotthard Pass was marked between some peaks. At that time the only possibility

This book was a bit of a "reintroduction" to PHP. I have used PHP in the distant past but have been using somewhat more recently. The explanations were carefully written and the code example(s) were well crafted. I would say that some primary knowledge of HTML is certainly needed and that one should know the basics of how a page is processed on a web server. Once you read this easy "Quick Begin Guide" you are well equipped to delve into PHP and its' extensive preprocessing capabilities. My sincere thanks to the authors!
I guess this was a satisfactory beginners tutorial but it didn't go much beyond that and the PHP code examples given in steps in the book differed from the completed code in the Appendix. I was a small disappointed.

In today's society, it's hard for most people to imagine life without private computers and the Internet. Public access to the Internet may be responsible for more changes in the method we carry out our day-to-day lives than any other happening in history. Today, businesses without www services are rarities, as are people in the free globe that don't spend at least part of their day using the Internet for one purpose or another.
I was referred by a mate to check this book out for support with creating contact forms.Upon reading I realized I was getting so much more...Plenty of information on scripting/programming fundamentalswith plenty of code supplied. I really liked the copy and paste options. I will refer to this book often!
This is a very interesting book for Beginners who'd like to explore what-the-heck PHO is and how it might apply to you. I learned that it is all about Web development, esp. In the zone of blogs! Since I went in knowing absolutely nothing, not even what the acronym stands for, I am very impressed.
I have a CIS degree and PHP is a very sought after skill in my field. I literally had one course that taught PHP so I've been looking to brush up on this skill. I found this book to be easy to under and everything was very well explained. This is a really amazing tutorial for beginners.
I used to work with PHP and CSS a small bit with my WordPress pages but never got any formal training for it. This was a amazing refresher for the PHP syntax and some of the other things I forgot to do (like embedding PHP). This will definitely come in use as a handy reference tutorial when I need it as I jump back into PHP. Recommended for anybody wanting to obtain a fast grasp on PHP fundamentals!
This is a amazing tutorial to teach the newcomer how to write code for a web site. I am a complete novice but this topic has intrigued me for a while and after reading this book, I have a much better grasp of the subject. Well written with lots of content. Well done!
Some suggestion, in the do it yourself, place drag and drop the main commands of the lesson. So it makes easier to program in Mobile devices. On the lessons could have more examples of practical use of the element. Would be amazing to understand better how to use and when code.
Very rarely does one search a free online service that is of legitimate help. SoloLearn is a glittering example of that. It explains individual concepts as amazing as a professor in class would, and also illustrates them with true globe examples and provides a possibility to try our skills by coding it ourselves. Loved it!
I am very annoyed that I have to download this application and give a lot of personal information, camera access, access to my contacts, and other intrusive things just so I could obtain the schedule for the fresh student orientation. Place this info on your website, rather than hassling students with an application and invading their privacy just to obtain necessary information.
amazing at what it does, i have high hopes for the future, i hooe they intigrate the hero sheets thiugh through chrome isnt much of a problem, current gaming li ation has amazing wireless connection but offline access would be [email protected]#$%
would love to rate it higher, but as previously mentioned no method to edit or make characters yet. Secondly not sure if special to me but all of the books that i do have bought i cannot download. It will flash the download bar for a split second then it disappears and just says downloading. If i leave it and come back to it in 5 mins, 10 mins, even an hour later it will either still say downloading. Or it will restart back to download.
As a beta, it functions as described. It's a digital reader, and a amazing tool to have on the go if, like me, you're a DM or player who wants to brush up on rules or campaign settings. It is NOT an app-version of the full website. Here's my reasons for an average star-rating: 1. Some of the in-text links are not formatted correctly, and lead nowhere. This appears to auto-report when it happens though. 2. This application has no option of deleting individual downloads to free storage space.
Would be 5 starts except there is no method to work with your characters in this app. A huge reason for this website is to manage your characters, yet you can't even see them with this app. I will just use the internet website from my phone rather than use this app. Amazing application for information, that you need to pay for.
I dn't knw wht's going on wth the dvlpmnt of ths app. A rcnt modernize brought the ablty to actlly read yr dwnlded books, and to nvgte within them. The current updte, though, has rvrted to utter uselessness. Prssng on the Primary Rules cvr img, for exmple, brings me to a page headed "Diseases". Thr's a sub-hdng for Sample Diseases, which prvdes 3 example diseases. Tht's the sum-total of evrythng accssble in the Primary Rules bk wthout usng the Find feature. Dec 21 update: no change, still broken.
I can't view my characters which is the only reason I downloaded this app. Not to mention you have to physically download every single thing you view on the website instead of just being able to view it like you can in the site. What's the point of this app? It does literally nothing but take up space.
I like this application and it's beautiful useful, but some of the monsters for looking up info on, like the Dracolich or the Young Red Shadow Dragon, makes the app crash. Not sure how a lot of other creatures this application does that crash result to but, I do hope this issue is fixed soon.
Will not and is not able to download the primary rules, spent half the day attempting ... It keeps stopping, halting and cutting off it's own download. The internet connection is not the issue in this case. Plus I have most the hard cover books & have to pay basically full price, again for books i have to use with an app.
will create 5 stars when I can use this application to shop my hero sheets. I'm on a note 9 and all I obtain is a library of books, doesnt support to have said library when I have to run your www service and discord and this application to manage my character. please do somethi g about this

You're in experienced hands when you choose to have neurosurgery at Barrow—we perform more than 5,000 neurosurgeries each year, more than at any other institution in the country.
Barrow's surgeons have pioneered neurosurgical techniques and instrumentation that are used throughout the world. For example, the hypothermic cardiac arrest, or the cardiac standstill, is used to repair difficult aneurysms by lowering the patient's body temperature, draining the blood from the body and stopping the heart so that the aneurysm can be clipped without bleeding. Our neurosurgeons have also advanced various skull base and bypass techniques that have revolutionized the treatment of complex lesions and tumors.
Barrow's wide range of advanced neurosurgery options includes:
Cerebrovascular neurosurgery, which includes the treatment of aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and cavernous malformations. Our internationally recognized neurovascular team specializes in microsurgery, endovascular surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery.
Endovascular neurosurgery, which uses a thin catheter to open blocked blood vessels in the brain to stop bleeding or to prevent vessels from rupturing while using X-ray guidance. Our neurosurgeons may use endovascular procedures to treat a variety of cerebrovascular diseases, including stroke, aneurysms, tumors and arteriovenous malformations.
Barrow's Skull Base Center, which is a leader in the development of new surgical techniques to access complex tumors located in the skull base region.
Stereotactic radiosurgery, often referred to as "knife-less" surgery. Barrow's radiation options, also known as radiosurgery, include Gamma Knife, CyberKnife® and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT).
In addition, Barrow offers specialized neurosurgery services for patients who have been diagnosed with a variety of individual diseases and disorders. Among others, Barrow's Acoustic Neuroma Center, Pituitary Center and Spine Center draw patients from throughout the world.
Built in 2006, the Barrow Neurosciences Tower includes 11 operating suites dedicated to neurosurgery and two endovascular neurosurgical suites. One room can be cooled to 55 degrees in just three minutes and another offers radio frequency (RF) shielding for cases involving deep brain stimulation. Each room is equipped with digital video and image technology, allowing for real-time digital viewing of ORs, and archiving of digital video, still images and procedure information.
For more information about all of our neurology procedures and services available, please visit barrowneuro.org or call 1-877-BARROW1 (1.877.227.7691).
