Matic808: On Baltimore's Music Scene, Being Called a Remix DJ & Making Traditional Club Music
At this stage of Baltimore Club's evolution, the most celebrated artists are ones that have been around since the genre's early days: Scottie B, DJ Class, Rod Lee, etc. Whether it be because of a lack of communication between young and older generations of the genre or if the interest just isn't there anymore, club music in Baltimore doesn't seem to be a genre for the youth--at least, not nearly as much as it was less than ten years ago. There's still hope, though. Matic808 is arguably club music's most exciting young DJ/producer. Last year he remixed Kanye West's Yeezus album in its entirety, gaining him attention from unlikely publications like The Wall Street Journal. This year has been much more chill for him as he has yet to release another full length--just loose mixes on Soundcloud. Eager to know when he'd be dropping more exciting mixes and what he feels Baltimore Club's best interest is moving forward, I chatted with Matic808 to see what's up. Check it out!
True Laurels: From Boiler Room, to Noisey to Pitchfork, Baltimore Club has gotten a significant amount of attention this year. As someone in the culture, what does that do for you? Do you get fueled by it?
Matic808: I definitely feel great about people paying attention to Baltimore but I think they're kinda late. People should've come two-three years ago when the original interest was still there. Now we're really starting from ground zero. I'm happy about the press but I feel like Baltimore Club should be something that the whole Baltimore embraces--even if it's just all the young people.
Your last full length project was the Bmore Club remix of Yeezus. How are you gonna follow that up?
Matic808: I'm working on a couple EP's right now but I've had a major creative block recently. Ideas aren't coming as quickly as they used to and I'm not sure how to completely get over it.
Why do you think that is?
Matic808: I really don't know what it is. Original content pushes you to think harder so switching from remixing to original stuff takes more brain power. Or maybe I'm overthinking it.
Do you feel like there's shame in being strictly a remix DJ?
Matic808: I don't think people should be ashamed of that but, for me, I know I'm much more than just a remixer. I don't want to be known for just that. So I do feel some kind of way when people call me a remix DJ.
You and Black Zheep DZ recently worked together for "Mr. Slick ". Do you think that exchange between rappers and club producers needs to happen in Baltimore more often?
Matic808: Definitely. That's something that Schwarz and Dylijens always talk about: merging cultures and desegregating music in Baltimore. There's a lot of little pockets of music going on but they're going nowhere fast if they don't come together as one big movement.
You do a really good job of staying true to club music conventions while adding an element of freshness. Do you make it a point to stay somewhat traditional?
Matic808: I do because I'm paying homage to the ones that came before me. This is what I come from. So, even if they don't give me credit, I owe it to them. Without the Club legends there would be no Matic. Rod Lee, Blaqstar, DJ Tameil, etc.
How often do you work on music?
Matic808: I try to at least work on something everyday. A lot of times I'm working on the same thing and trying to get it right. Sometimes I'll be working on something for three hours and nothing gets finished because I'm trying to get it to where I want it to be. I haven't been really excited by my work in a while. Something needs to happen in my life to get that charge.
So what do you think you need to work on to improve your music?
Matic808: Most definitely mixing and mastering. I really don't have a hold on that. The tracks that I'm working on for the EP are getting sent out for that. So a lot of the times when I'm DJ'ing I won't drop my new tracks because I'm not completely happy with the sound. Or, at least I won't play my own stuff back-to-back.
Tell me more about the new EP.
Matic808: I don't have a name for it yet but there are tracks that are closer to poppy sounds, tracks that I feel like Baltimore kids can shake off to and tracks that are really dark. The dark stuff probably won't translate well for people shaking off but I'm working on how to separate and release those tracks.
Looking back at the places we had in Baltimore as teens like The Dox to now playing at parties like KAHLON & Beet Trip, how do you feel about where the local scene is? Both as an attendee and a performing act?
Matic808: Back when I was 16 I was DJ'ing with this company called New Era Entertainment and they were throwing parties and basically taught me how to do everything. Back then, they used to throw parties in halls or rec centers in East Baltimore and East Baltimore County. Things were DIY back then too but they were actually packing places out. The interest for the music was so high. Like, the spaces weren't huge but if they had a capacity of 500 people, 500 people would come out. The last KAHLON I played was probably the best turnout I've seen since then. People came out just for dance music and that's how it used to be. I'm not sure what it's gonna take for that to come back or if it can come back. It seems much harder now.

Typically, sowbugs are omnivores and eat a variety of organisms, such as algae, fungus, moss and bark. They are also scavengers, feeding on dead plants and animals that are in the process of decaying.
To avoid becoming food themselves, sowbugs are able to roll up into a protective ball. They secrete chemicals to ward away predators. In addition, they are nocturnal and, therefore, avoid daytime predators. In the wild, sowbugs usually live two to three years.
Sowbugs are typically found in areas of high humidity, such as beneath rocks or logs, in piles of leaves or in cracks of rocks. They stay away from areas that are well-lit or dry.

How VigRX Plus Works
The penis has two paired cylinders called the Corpora Cavernosa that, when aroused, expand and fill with blood creating the hardness of your erection.
The capacity of your Corpora Cavernosa to fill with blood during arousal limits erection length and thickness, and this function can decrease as you age.
Through clinical testing our scientists discovered that the penile tissue of the Corpora Cavernosa will increase in capacity and function more effectively when exposed to specific natural ingredients.
With this knowledge we developed VigRX, which is an all natural supplement blending the highest quality ingredients in the exact dosage that will yield maximum penis enhancement.
More recently, we added one more key ingredient, Bioperene® which through U.S. Clinical Studies has proven to increase the absorption rates of nutrients that it is combined with.
Simply stated, Bioperine® made VigRX work better leading to the introduction of VigRX Plus!
This is why VigRX™ has become the standard by which all other penis enhancement supplements are judged...
No other product can match the positive results that the VigRX Plus cutting edge formula provides.
Here is a breakdown of what you can typically expect:
Month #1: Think of this as your building phase. Taking VigRX Plus as described in month 1 is crucial. It is the building block for larger, firmer erections.
Month #2: Now it's starting to get exciting. You'll start to see dramatic changes in the appearance of your penis as well as longer lasting erections. You'll also notice a further increase in your sexual stamina.
Month #3: Now when you get an erection your penis looks and feels firmer, stronger and more rock solid than you ever dreamed possible!
Month #4 - 12: Need we say more? Everything past four months is simply AMAZING! Remember the longer you take it, the better the results!
Of course, some men will not have results in line with this timetable, so it is important to finish the bottle at the proper dosage before judging your results.

*Results shown were from a triple blind placebo controlled, randomized Clinical Study by Vedic Life Sciences Pvt. LTD. Individual results may vary.
No Unpleasant Side Effects
Traditionally, the medical community has taken a reactionary approach to sexual dysfunction by responding to problems with aggressive prescriptions or invasive surgery.
Unfortunately, these methods often cause unwanted and even dangerous side effects.
Attempts to enhance erection size through non-medical methods usually mean ineffective exercises, or even worse, manipulations that brutalize the penis with weights, straps, rings or pumps.
In fact, Medical Doctors, typically resistant to herbal and naturopathic healing, are now endorsing VigRX Plus for male sexual enhancement.

Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 Tutorial Video
0.000000 0.000000
This category will consists of the posts related to the Microsoft Student Partners ( MSP ) Program.
Hi guys,
I recently attended one session on Microsoft Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 at Persistent Systems Limited and found it very interesting and helpful. You can get all the information about LightSwitch from here .
According to me, some of the important features of Microsoft Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 which I liked are as follows:
1) Easier facility to add data source and retrieve data from MS SQL Server, MS SQL Azure, MS SharePoint and Windows Communication Foundation
2) Business friendly data types like EmailAddress and PhoneNumber are present which are very helpful
3) One can create screens for your data quickly using shortcuts present in the action bar
4) One can choose from already present common screen templates and match the screen to the appropriate data source
5) Edit screen layout using a Tree Control
6) Screens automatically create input field for the entity model they are matched to
7) Business data types enable additional validation and functionality without writing a single code
8) Export to Microsoft Excel is directly available
9) It enables non-programmers to develop professional, quality business applications
10) Customizable templates enable new and creative user experiences
11) LightSwitch features support for many devices—including touch-screen support—is built in
12) If you have already built any desktop application and in a need to convert it to web application then it is very easy to convert that desktop application with a single button click and your web application is ready to deploy.
Different shells are available for the applications in LightSwitch so that at any point of time, one can easily change the UI as quickly as possible with a single button click.
The limitation of LightSwitch which I felt is that UI is completely dependant on the shell. Different templates could not be added in the same application at one point of time.
I am finding it very much useful and try to work with it once a week. To download Microsoft Visual Studio Lightswitch, kindly use this link.
Enjoy 🙂
Hi Friends,
While developing the application in Windows Presentation Foundation, you might face with issue of scaling the application. If you want to run your application into different display of different resolutions then you might need to scale up/down your application to regain the application controls at the right position as they were present before.
Enjoy 🙂
Hi Friends,

Follow us
In the November issue we published part 1 of the series, in which we discussed the value of researching galleries, the best practices for approaching, and outlined the differences between emerging and established artists. In this article we will discuss setting the price of your art, the benefits of gallery representation and things you need to be aware of before you begin approaching galleries.
Setting your price
One of the most common questions and dilemmas for photographers pertains to pricing their photographic art. If you have struggled to put a price tag on your work, you are not alone. One of the benefits to working with a gallery is that, as your representative, they will guide you with suggestions and provide feedback on pricing.
As mentioned in the previous article, identifying yourself as either an emerging or an established artist will assist you in setting your price. Different markets will allow for various price points and the gallery can be an invaluable asset in providing objective opinions.
Quite possibly, one of the only drawbacks to gallery representations is the commission you pay to the gallery. In larger cities, such as New York, you can easily expect a commission split of 70/30, favoring the gallery. Here in Charleston, South Carolina, where I interviewed Jennie Fili from Martin Gallery, a more common split would be 50/50.
If you are an emerging artist, you will need to be prepared for a higher split because the gallery is going to take a greater risk of representing you versus representing an artist with a record of success in sales.
When setting the price of your print you will need to keep in mind the cost of printing, the gallery commission and the amount you will have to pay in taxes.
Building your name
Building your name within the community will not only help you build leverage when you negotiate commission with a gallery, but it can also become an additional source of income for you until such time that you become represented. Whether the gallery is the end goal or not, the value of building your name within your community cannot be overstated.
One piece of advice on where to get started would be to display your work in any art shows your community might have. In a later article we'll discuss art shows in more depth.
During my conversation with Martin Gallery (see previous article), a great deal of weight was put towards juried art shows versus open shows. One primary take away from my conversation was the value she placed on being approved and shown at a juried art show. She mentioned that the credibility you receive by being accepted into a juried art show played a part in her level of interest in prospective new artists.
The role a gallery plays
Although the commission split may be tough to wrap your mind around, you must keep in mind that they are saving you the cost of space in a building, electricity and other expenses. The gallery is also minimizing your risk. A relationship with a credible gallery can be a profoundly beneficial one.
If you have come to an agreement with a gallery, you can expect that they will host a show for you where your art is either displayed exclusively or you and your work are highlighted for the evening. This additionally lends to your resume as an artist, and for many photographers the show in and of itself is the prize they are after.
A great gallery relationship will also be one that is committed to your success. You can expect that they will encourage you to sit down with them, review your work and discuss images they feel will sell. It is important to approach this meeting with humility and an open mind. The gallery director will have a great idea of his/her market and what consumers are interested in.
The benefit of having an advocate who knows your story, your passion, your work and your art is invaluable. Having a representative of your work to speak about you is a great thing; I consider it to be one of the highest points of a representation. It is important to note that not only do galleries become your advocate to individuals out for a Sunday stroll, but that it is also their role to have a book of business, which includes qualified investors and collectors. A gallery becomes a matchmaker between the artist and the collector. A great gallery director will know their investors and will work to fit your images into their collections where applicable.
In the previous article I wrote about best practices regarding approaching a gallery director or owner. If you haven't had a chance to read it, I very much want to encourage you to reference back to it. Jennie Fili made an interesting point that I had never thought of prior to our interview. She communicated to me how strongly she feels about being the advocate or representative of her artists. She gave me this example: If she had three people in the room, the artist, a collector and a prospective artist who was seeking representation, it would be offensive to her existing artist if she were to take time away from the collector to speak with a new artist about potential representation. Regardless of whether or not the artist is physically present, her integrity and work ethic causes her to respect the artist at all times. While this may be frustrating or come off as rude and aloof to a prospective artist seeking representation, to the artist who is already represented it's a clear act of respect and professionalism.
Choosing a medium
This topic could be an article in and of itself. The value and importance of choosing a medium that reflects the tone of your work is vital. It will also be a benefit to discuss with the gallery what they feel will sell and work in the gallery.
If the gallery tends to favor a more modern look, you may want to present metal prints. They have been very popular among photographers due to the ability to hang the print without the cost of a matte and frame, while still having a polished presentation. The size of the prints will also be an important point. Prior to printing, you will need to have a conversation with the gallery as to what range of sizes they would prefer. Bay Photo has long been known for the quality of their metal prints and has the ability to print incredibly large sizes. Specifically, they can print up to 4 feet by 8 feet.
While printing on metal is a common medium for photographers, it is still a relatively new medium to consumers.
Having a theme or body of work is of great value for galleries. That theme should be analyzed to determine if it is the most suitable one for a traditional frame and matt, or if it will be most complimented by a more modern look such as a metal print, acrylic or canvas.
In closing
It is my hope that these last two articles have been beneficial to you and have answered some of your questions regarding art galleries, getting started and the benefits of representation.
One key point I'd like to leave with you is this: never in the history of humanity has a farmer gone to his field on a Monday, planted a seed and then gone out on Tuesday to reap the harvest. This principle of sowing and reaping is vital to nearly every aspect of life – the same is true for your business as an artist.
It is an unrealistic expectation to think that having the body of work appropriate for a gallery is an overnight assignment. It is also unreasonable to think that working through the steps from juried art shows to galleries are life events that happen overnight. Hard work, persistence, consistency and honest self-assessment will go far in this competitive world of fine art.

While there is much that I can and do share about what my teachers and lineage have to say about Reiki, my most transformative and insightful experiences with Reiki have come through experience.
My deep sense, and what my clients report, too, is that we are surrounded and supported by love while we work together. The shifts that occur in my clients' physical, spiritual, and emotional lives through Reiki seem rooted in this love - rooted in the support of more than just my hands and work alone.
There is mystery here that tidy explanations can't do justice to, so I invite you to read the words below within this broader context of healing that can't and won't be contained by our natural attempts to explain it.
All sessions are 75 minutes long. Pricing applies the same to in-person and remote sessions.
First time sessions: $75
Regular session: $100
Package discount: 3 sessions for $270 (10% savings)
Reiki is a gentle, non-intrusive healing modality that supports health at multiple levels – body, mind, and spirit. In a similar way to acupuncture, it's based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through and around us. When this energy flows freely and well, we experience greater health and feelings of well-being. When it is blocked or diminished – whether through trauma, injury, or day-to-day stress or anxiety – we more readily experience pain, disease, and emotional turbulence. Or just plain fatigue!
Through a series of gentle hand positions, placed on or slightly above the body, Reiki allows life force energy to flow into the physical body and its energetic field from the hands of the practitioner. As life force energy increases and is supported in its flow, the body's natural process of healing, rebalancing, and restoration is activated and enabled to do its job more effectively.
At the end of Reiki sessions, patients often report feeling greater peace, an increased sense of hope and positivity, and a reduction of physical pain. My experience is that the spirit part of our body/mind/spirit system is most directly healed through Reiki, and this in turn affects the health of the body and mind.
Reiki is based on the premise that life force energy flows in and around our whole being, and relates to every level of health – spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical. As life force energy increases and is helped to flow more freely around and throughout the body, all levels of being are affected.
In this way, Reiki supports health and well-being for whatever challenge you bring to it. People come to Reiki to address illness, injury, and physical pain; for support with emotional challenges and turbulence; to reduce stress and chronic anxiety; to help move through psychological blocks experienced in relationships or the pursuit of goals; and to feel more spiritually open and alive.
Reiki is not a magic bullet. Though sometimes its effects are instant and dramatic, it much more often is analogous to the sunlight, water, nutrients, and efficient/effective root system that enable a tree to flourish.
Clients often report having come for support around a particular issue, only to feel improvement in other areas of physical and emotional health as well.
Sessions with me last 75 minutes (occasionally I offer 60-minute sessions for a reduced price; sign up for my newsletter to hear about these offers).
We spend a few minutes at the beginning talking about what your expectations are for our time together. Is there a particular physical or emotional challenge you're experiencing? An area in your life where you feel blocked or stuck? Would you simply like the chance to relax, step out of the busy-ness of your day, and receive Reiki energy?
After our initial check-in, you'll lie comfortably on my massage table, fully clothed. I will guide you through some deep breathing exercises to help you relax, and then I'll place my hands gently on and sometimes a small distance away from your body as Reiki energy flows. Tissue is not manipulated and private areas of your body are never touched.
The effects and sensations people experience while receiving Reiki vary. Most commonly clients report feeling surrounded by warm, loving light and a deep sense of relaxation. Some experience heat and tingling sensations. Some experience pain relief. Some see images that are meaningful in some way. Some experience an opening of their heart area and the release of held-back emotion. Some feel relatively little, and simply relax and fall asleep.
After Reiki is administered, we have a closing conversation about your experience, and any impressions I had while I worked. I leave you with suggestions for how you might continue to support the work we did in our session on your own in the days and weeks to come.
Distance Reiki is where Reiki energy is administered to a patient who is not in the same physical space as the practitioner. Some day, maybe our scientific tools will be able to explain unequivocally how this is possible. Until that time, our validation of distance Reiki must rely on experiencing it for ourselves. Some of my most powerful experiences of giving Reiki treatments have been distance sessions, where my clients' experiences of heat, tingling, and mental/emotional shifts corresponded with my own experiences of heat and tingling in my hands as I worked in my mind's eye over the different parts of their bodies.
I tend toward skepticism when it comes to things like this, so I encourage you to not take my word for it; experience distance Reiki for yourself and draw your own conclusions about its effectiveness!
You can also read through client testimonials to hear how people have experienced distance sessions.
Distance sessions happen in the same progression as in-person sessions, only the talking we do before and after the session happens by Skype (audio only) or phone, and instead of lying on my massage table, you choose a quiet, comfortable place to sit or lie down in your home (this is why we do Skype calls as audio-only; I respect the privacy of your space and prefer to limit the distraction that me being visually present in your home can bring).
We talk by phone or Skype to open the session; I lead you in deep breathing exercises while still on the line; we get off the line while I administer Reiki; and then once the Reiki treatment is over, I call you back to discuss our experience.
Your presence to the experience - setting aside the allotted time in a quiet space to be relaxed and open to receive, rather than multi-tasking - allows the experience to match or exceed the intensity of healing that happens during in-person sessions.
If you live near me, you are welcome to choose either option. I find that in our current world, where so much time is spent online (or on our phones) and not in shared, physical space, chances to connect meaningfully in person and to experience kind, safe touch are their own unique kind of healing.
So if you live near me (my practice is in Torrance, CA), I encourage you to come for an in-person treatment. The choice, of course, is always yours!
Please let me know if you have questions. I can be reached by phone at (650) 704-2352, or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
I look so forward to serving you!

Name: Common Blue
Scientific name: Polyommatus icarus
Category: Minibeasts
Nature Stars: 30
About: A small butterfly, with a wingspan of about 3.5cm. Adults fly throughout the summer between April and October. A bold blue butterfly that likes warm sunny places. The most widespread of the blue butterflies, found in a wide variety of habitats including heathland, woodland rides, grassy meadows, parks and even large gardens. Caterpillars feed on clovers, restharrow, bird's-foot-trefoil and related plants.
How to identify: The commonest blue, told from the Holly Blue by the orange spots on the underside of the hind wings. Larger than the Small Blue, brighter blue than the paler Chalkhill Blue and without the black-and-white chequered pattern along the edge of the wings of the Adonis Blue, both of which are found on chalky grasslands in southern England. Larger than the Silver-studded Blue, which is found on heathland, and smaller than the very rare Large Blue.
Where: Found right across the country, but absent from the Shetland Islands.
Natural Superpowers
Fantastic fact: The Common Blue was accidentally introduced to North America at a Canadian airfield in 2005, probably arriving on board a plane, and is now spreading in the area.

DUARTE – Ralphs Grocery Store to Close in July
The Ralphs grocery store at 1193 Huntington Drive in Duarte is slated to close sometime in July 2015. The decision to close the store was a corporate decision by Ralph's based on a variety of different business factors including that the Duarte store was consistently one of its lowest performing stores and that many who shop at this store do a portion of shopping elsewhere, making the current model in the City not sustainable.
Ralphs has closed a number of locations in Southern California in the past few years, including San Dimas which was then leased to Smart & Final Extra and Arcadia which was leased to Savers. The Duarte location was reported to be in the bottom 50 of under-performing stores for years out of a 3600 store portfolio nationwide.
Ralphs was the grocery anchor within the Buena Vista Marketplace at the northwest corner of Huntington Drive and Buena vista. The shopping center is approximately 143,000 square feet. Additional tenants include Starbucks, The UPS Store, Wells Fargo, AT&T, Jamba Juice, Dollar Tree, Hertz, Subway, and Flame Broiler. The property was developed around 1990.
Buena Vista Marketplace is owned by the publicly traded REIT, Weingarten. Weingarten acquired the property in January 2001 as part of a portfolio sale that resolved a troubled situation with then owner Burnham Pacific. Weingarten's business activities encompass the long-term ownership, management, acquisition, development and redevelopment of strategically located neighborhood and community shopping centers and select industrial properties. The vast majority of their shopping centers are anchored by either a supermarket or a national value-oriented retailer. These anchors combined with convenient locations, attractive and well-maintained properties and a strong tenant mix help to ensure the long-term success of its merchants and the viability of its portfolio.

By Sarah M. Shoffler, SFUSD Board of Directors.
Heritage turkeys are different from most turkeys sold in the U.S. Ancestors to the Broad Breasted White turkey, the most produced commercial breed of turkey today, heritage turkeys have retained some of their historic characteristics. Unlike industrially-produced turkeys, which are mostly raised in captivity, the heritage breeds are raised outdoors and roam freely in pastures. They are allowed to grow older and eat a diverse diet, so put on an extra layer of fat. These self-reliant birds are known for their good flavor due to more dark meat, and "thriftyness" or good meat yield. Many heritage breeds originated in the United States and since the 1960s have been difficult to find. Some are nearing extinction.
The Broad Breasted White turkey is so often preferred by industrial food producers because it grows quickly and provides a great deal of white meat. However, like the Broiler chicken, the most produced food chicken, the Broad Breasted White turkey has so much breast meat and such short legs that it cannot mate naturally. This bird also can't fly, is prone to health problems and cannot survive without human intervention.
Choosing to eat a heritage turkey may in fact save the breeds. By buying heritage breeds, consumers encourage breeders to continue producing the rare birds, thereby supporting their existence. To this end, the American Livestock Conservancy works to protect nearly 200 individual breeds of livestock from 11 different species. They developed the term "heritage" in order to help market historic and endangered breeds of livestock because "the loss of these breeds would impoverish agriculture and diminish the human spirit."
Slow Food's Ark of Taste, a living catalog of delicious and distinctive foods facing extinction, also includes eight of the heritage turkeys: Bronze, Black, Bourbon, Jersey Buff, Midget White, Narragansett, Royal Palm and Slate.
Wondering where to buy a heritage turkey? You may have to order one, but here are a few places we found carrying them:
- Some Whole Foods (the Hillcrest store was out, but La Jolla was still taking orders as of 11/12), Bristol Farms, Barons Markets (taking orders starting 11/13) have heritage turkeys available or are taking orders.
- Mary's Free Range Narragansett and Bourbon turkeys are available in a number of SoCal locations, including those listed above.
- You can order Narragansett, Slate and Bourbon turkeys online from Local Harvest.
- The Heritage Turkey Foundation also lists several heritage turkey sellers in SoCal.

To date, Chernobyl still stands as the world's worst civilian nuclear accident. But the unfolding disaster in Fukushima, Japan, demonstrates that no amount of technological sophistication or safety culture can prepare any country or its people for the inherent dangers of nuclear energy.Yesterday, I was among those Greenpeace activists in black cloaks and masks who took the message to the doorsteps of the Department of Energy, in a grim procession highlighting 25 of the world's worst nuclear disasters that occurred between Chernobyl (1986) and Fukushima (2011). When all has been said and done, there is a human cost to nukes, especially in the incidence of a nuclear disaster. The Chernobyl disaster is a grim reminder of the tragic cost of nukes on the lives of people – a cost that they are paying until today.I remember the account of one of our campaigners about the chief proponent for the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant, Congressman Mark Cojuangco, who made a comment that only 60 people died in the Chernobyl catastrophe -- a comment that caught the ire of a shocked nun who questioned the value that the chief BNPP proponent puts on life."'Only 60' people died!??!" she said in shock. Only 60 people who have been someone's parent, child, sibling, friend or lover, rendered lifeless by their exposure to extreme levels radiation.
Ultimately, nuclear power is not just about technology or economics, but about the kind of future we want for ourselves and for our children. The story of Anya is just one of the many stories of lives that have been radically altered by exposure to the inherent dangers brought about by an industry that has consistently demonstrated that safety and nuclear power is a contradiction in terms.

Organic Juice
"Mr. Zumuu" is a collection of organic fruit juice, mixed with organic milk, specially thought for children.
Having this in concern we designed a bottle inspired on the on glass milk bottles. Without loosing the essence of a juice bottle.
For the label we remember when we were young and how we used to get a milk mustache after drinking milk, having these in our minds we transposed these idea to fruit.
And so "Mr. Zumuu" was born.

Small Business Assistance Program
The Small Business Assistance Program (SBAP) of the GVCC has been fortunate to receive grant funding from the Community Development Block Grants fund through the City of Vancouver since 2015. As of December 2017 our SBAP program has served over 75 qualified clients. The businesses have come from various industries such as, construction, retail, professional services, food services, health, arts, fashion, and media. Each year over one-third of participants, with the support of the GVCC SBAP program, have qualified for IDA grants for startup funds totaling up to $4000.00. Program participants have reported between 20% -300% increase in revenue.
The program has helped over 30 entrepreneurs take their ideas for businesses to a launch and supported over 50 businesses take their business to the next level. In 2 extreme cases, the program has been effective in helping businesses on the verge of closing remain open. The Chamber's SBAP provided guidance, resources, marketing plan and business structure support. Today those 2 businesses are still up and running and thriving. Another of our success stories has to do with a client with the idea to open a coffee shop in the City of Vancouver. The support of the SBAP program along with the resources of the Chamber and the City, made it possible for the client to open the coffee shop within 6 months of enrolling in the program.
Our SBAP goal is to help entrepreneurs prepare, start and launch a business when they are ready and have the means/knowledge of being a business owner. Some who come in seeking the support of the SBAP program take longer to launch their business. Lack of funds, and/or time are significant barriers but by learning and understanding what it means to be a business owner, knowledge they gain in the program, saves them time and money in the long run. Starting 2018, brings a new format to SBAP. Clients now will get the benefit of a 10-week course that will provide essential foundational business training for new, aspiring and early stage businesses within Vancouver city limits. GVCC has partnered with the Kauffman Foundation and will be using their FastTrac curriculum. The Kauffman Foundation has trained more than 300,000 entrepreneurs since 1993. The FastTrac curriculum brings quality, engaging educational content to entrepreneurs .
The combination of classroom and online interactive activities will guide participants as they refine their business concepts, set financial goals, learn how to manage business functions, and identify market opportunities. Learning side by side with other entrepreneurs is a key element of the FastTrac program.
At the completion of the program participants will have created well-planned and researched business, marketing and financial plans. They will also understand the steps needed (licensing, taxes, etc.) to launch their business, know what resources are available to them, and have established a local network of business owners. This new format allows our staff to serve more entrepreneurs and the opportunity for participants to learn from each other.

Aviation History
FLIGHT International, 10 February 1972 208 , AIR TRANSPORT... on February 1 near Bremen airport, where flight testing of the two prototypes has been based. Pilot Leif Nielsen and flight engineer Juergen Hammer escaped by parachute, suffering only slight injuries, but co-pilot Hans Bardill was killed when his parachute failed to open. Cruising at 220kt, 405km/hr at an altitude of 10,000ft, 3,000m the aircraft "suddenly adopted a flight attitude which the pilot was unable to bring under control," accord ing to VFW. The company says the aircraft was on a routine test flight; the weather conditions were good but hazy and "there were no special events." The company maintains that no critical manoeuvres were being executed and that the aircraft had previously been taken into that part of the flight envelope being explored without encountering problems. The head of the ministerial inquiry, Capt Brandenburg, is reluctant to dismiss any possible cause of the accident, but there is no evidence at this stage to link the crash with any powerplant deficiency. Neither is the accident associated, it appears, with the tailplane flutter problems which the aircraft has experienced in the past months. The flight was intended purely as a check for the aircraft following a period on the ground for maintenance. No test work as such was being carried out. This is borne out by the fact that only the quick-look telemetry was switched on and that the aircraft was nearly overhead a civil airport at the time of the crash. Before the accident the 614 was in a gentle left turn. The quick-look telemetry indicates that spoilers were deployed. Two seconds after their extension severe vibra tion was felt by the crew. The aircraft also apparently yawed and made some unusual movements. VFW is not sure whether spoilers were retracted at this point. The possibility of some form of asymmetric deployment is one of the factors being investigated. The second 614 is at VFW's Lemwerder factory for routine structural testing. It will be grounded until the cause of the accident to the first aircraft has been estab lished. The company will probably continue the test programme with the second and third prototypes on a delayed timescale, and is likely to move part of the pro gramme to Spain to avoid the poor weather at Bremen. Flight testing has taken the 614 to 260kt and 25,000ft. No further delay in getting the aircraft into service is anticipated by the company at this stage because, it says, late delivery of production Rolls-Royce/Snecma M45H turbofans had already necessitated postponement of airline deliveries until the spring of 1974. Final signature of the production contract between Rolls-Royce and VFW for the powerplant was due to have taken place the day before the crash, but was held up by an administrative hitch. Provision of the necessary finance (primarily by the British and German Governments) to get the M45H into production is conditional on con clusion of this agreement (see Flight for January 27, page 118). RUNWAY SITING UNDECIDED MAPLIN appears to be the favoured name for London's third airport rather than Foulness, to judge from a ministerial statement on February 2. But Mr Peter Walker, Secretary of State for the Environment, gave no indication of the exact site of the new airport, or of the proposed alignment of the runways. He was more concerned with the wider aspect of associated seaport and industrial development at the site; in particular he said that development of primary industry at Maplin was considered "inappropriate" by the Govern ment. It is being ruled out partly on grounds of regional planning policy but partly also because of incompatibility with a large international airport. The Government, he said, was examining methods of land reclamation which would allow land to be reclaimed by stages as and when needed. He made it clear that the Port of London Authority rather than any of the com mercial consortia would be favoured for port development, at least initially. "We are planning to have the first runway by 1980 or earlier if practicable," said Mr Walker. The Government has previously made it clear that it will be looking to the new airport to take the pressure off existing London-area airports as soon as possible, and to remove the need for providing any new runways at these airports. In this way, the Government hopes, aircraft noise and nuisance will be minimised. RECEIVER FOR CHANNEL APPOINTMENT by Barclays Bank of Kenneth Cork of Cork Gully & Co as receiver and manager of Channel Airways was announced in London last week. There had been speculation as to the future of the company, which only a week before had announced the closure of its Stansted engineering base and the return of its head quarters to Southend, where the company was started 25 years ago. Operations would continue, the statement added; but at the same time it became clear that Channel is being offered for sale. A spokesman for the receiver confirmed at the weekend that offers to buy it were being considered, but that none had as yet been accepted. Channel's fleet comprises four Comet 4Bs, two One- Elevens, four Viscount 800s, two Herons and a Dove. Two Trident lEs were sold late last year to BEA. The diversity of the fleet appears to account at least in part for the airline's difficulties, and must have added to unit costs. Trident utilisation in particular was low—894hr per aircraft/year in 1971, compared with l,307hr for the Comets, l,173hr for the One-Elevens and 961hr for the Viscounts. The operation of scheduled services, particularly to the Channel Islands, has always been a cornerstone of Channel policy. The airline carried 155,600 passengers on scheduled services in 1971, performing 24-4 million passenger-miles with a passenger load factor of 54-9 per cent. On inclusive-tour charters 386,400 passengers were carried, and passenger-miles amounted to 268-2 million. Total production, scheduled and non-scheduled, was more than 34 million ton-miles. Up to the time of the appointment of the receiver, Channel was headed by Sqn Ldr R. J. Jones, who founded the airline and, with family interests, still controlled its share capital. He has always exercised close personal control of the airline's activities. One of the causes of Channel's difficulties was excessive competition on routes from the Southend area, according to T. D. Keegan, who bought Southend-based British Air Ferries last year. He said last week that BAF would have ceased operating by the end of 1971 if it had not been sold. Mr Keegan, who also owns Stansted-based Transmeridian Air Cargo, announced further that he was applying for licences on the routes at present served by Channel. He was considering the purchase of the scheduled-service sec tor of the Channel operation. The party which eventually buys the airline will not automatically inherit its route licences, and Mr Keegan appears to have decided that the licence application, in the names of BAF, would make things more certain. A-300B fin mating took place last Monday at Toulouse. The prototype is now out of its assembly jig and is stand ing on its undercarriage. Philippine Airlines has bought ten American Trainers from American Aviation Corporation for use as primary trainers for airline, military and Government pilots. PAL also trains crews for MSA and the Malaysian Government. An India-Mauritius bilateral agreement was signed at the end of January. At present Air India operates a weekly 707 service between Bombay and St Louis, Mauritius. Air Mauritius has been set up, but as yet has no aircraft. Air India will operate the service on its behalf.

Everyone can change for the better!
What you are now are a product of your past decisions and actions. How you think, what you feed your mind with, the programs that you watch, the hobbies that you take part in, the food that you eat, the books that you read, how much time you have invested in the people that you love, the things you are doing and are not doing will eventually determine how your life will be like a couple of years from now. You can't transform into a brand new person overnight.
What you can do is to make a conscious decision to change for the better and start committing to it even with the smallest of actions.
If there is a goal that you wish to achieve, do something about it as soon as you can, even if it is just reading up an article or two about it, or even if it means just substituting a small serving of junk food in favour for a serving of a fruit if you intend to change your diet, or just having a slow walk around the park instead of getting involved in a strenuous exercise if you would like to develop a more physically active lifestyle. If you would like to be a more skilled guitarist , go learn a small unit of a song at a time, even if it just means one riff at a time. Great works are not produced overnight. Great pieces of art take time to develop. Great skill and talents takes purposeful effort over a sustained period of time and continuous improvement.
Increase and improve your efforts incrementally.
You cannot change everything overnight. But your sum of efforts over a sustained period of time, your continuous improvements, learning and relearning of what you want to master would amount to a great deal over a few years.
It takes great planning, a great vision but most important of all persistence and continuous effort and refinement on a frequent basis, on a day to day basis to create a great piece of art like what Michaelangelo did.
Don't worry if someone reaches his or her goal much faster than you do. Don't compare yourself with others. You will eventually reach your goal if you continue to put in consistent effort on a regular or daily basis and continue to increase its intensity, learn, relearn, strategise and restrategise. Stop comparing yourself with others, you will never be a happy person.
What you should do and can do.
But what you can do, is to benchmark your current self, your present self in comparison with what you were, lets say a week, a month or even a year ago. What matters more is that you grow in comparison to your previous self.
Small, consistent actions set the momentum.
There is beauty in small actions; they build momentum when you successfully complete them. What we eventually become depends on what we do on a daily basis.
If you have not been exercising, eating healthily, reading or doing an activity that you've always wanted, setting a big unrealistic goal expecting a change over a very short period of time such as having 3 meals high in fruit and vegetable content or hitting the gym 5 times a week, may not just put your body in a state of shock and refusal, but it may be counter productive as people in general require a great amount of energy to enact big changes in their personal life.
Form habits on a daily basis
What is more important is to practice habits on a daily basis which forms part of your daily routine, so eventually it will be part of you; it will be a set of actions that becomes part of your nature. Start with small actions, no matter how small, it will create a momentum and practice them consistently.
Make a commitment to increase the size of the actions on a daily basis, no matter how small. Your daily habits will eventually determine the person that you become, if you eat healthily on a daily basis and exercise regularly every week, over a year, you will be a much healthier person. Big goals cannot be achieved overnight. They are achieved by a series of small victories, small battles. Big battles are harder to win. Small battles are far easier to be victorious in. Plus the way you perceive these small battles will also affect whether you will continue persisting, winning and improving.
Change the way that you perceive forming new habits.
View small habits as necessary footsteps that will move you to your goals or the change that you want to be; habits that are to be practiced on a daily basis. Habits that are small enough that it does not require an Earth shattering amount of energy to implement. Habits that do not require critical changes in one's personal life.
What you need are small habits that you can practice on a daily basis, the willpower to continuously practice them and persist in practicing them.
Read up and learn on how to make yourself better and more efficient in achieving your habits and substituting them that will move you to your goals, and most importantly, view these habits as a channel for continuous growth, a chance to improve in small manageable amounts.
Successful people are not created overnight, they practice habits of success on a small scale, no matter how small, on a daily basis and persist in carrying them out everyday, on some days, they may not get the results that they want and on some days they may face obstacles but what they continuously do is to keep on improving and learning on how to practice the small habits in a better manner and achieve better results.
Your daily habits, when practiced consistently and continuously improved upon, will create you. Your daily habits will determine your lifestyle. Your daily habits will create momentum in your goals, no matter how small, but when consistent, will create a flow of energy towards your bigger goals.
Focus on creating daily habits. Focus on small incremental changes. Persist in practicing them on a daily basis. Start with small habits and see them as steps moving you to a bigger change or goal. Your daily habits will eventually shape the person that you are. Your daily habits will eventually form you. Small incremental changes in the form of daily habits are powerful.

Does any one keep track of non-standard terminology?
Does any one keep track of non-standard terminology? In the group that I worked with developing a Linux (Actually Non Proprietary UNIX Emulator NPUE (pronounced New-pooie)) 64, 128 and 256 bit compilers we used the terms:
Two bits or a crumb Dibble
Three bits Tribble
Four bits Nibble
Five bits Pribble
Six bits Skibble
The theme was the first letter of double, triple (quad was skipped) pent and sex. No one ever agreed on seven bits. It hardly mattered as the tandem word simulator running on the 16 bit machine behaved strangely for the 64 bit simulation and failed utterly for the 128 bit and up simulations and you can?t get volunteers to write code for something that can?t be at least tested. If no repository or translation for such things exists I?m thinking of creating one. Some of the old tech documentation can be harder to figure out than ancient Egyptian.
I am not aware of any, but what a hell of a concept. We all have goofy stories, terms and snippets that we share, but it would be great to preserve them for posterity sake. Please let me know the site when it is up. I would love to check it from time to time and may even contribute.

Global Smart Healthcare Products: Snapshot
Smart healthcare products combined with IoT is redefining medical care for better treatment outcomes at reduced costs. The inclusion of IoT in smart healthcare products has a high degree of appeal for a spectrum of services which includes remote health monitoring, chronic diseases, fitness programs, and elderly care. In particular, this has high significance for treating critical care patients as patient data is easily accessible to medical personnel across several platforms at any given time.
The high-value advantages of smart healthcare products are resulting in stepping up of efforts from several governments and healthcare agencies to provide support for their adoption for quality healthcare. In particular, governments of developed nations are endorsing smart healthcare products to raise the quality of healthcare services for the nation's population. In developing economies, rising GDP aiding the modernization of healthcare services is fueling the growth of smart healthcare products.
However, high costs associated with smart healthcare products is limiting their use for select services.

The Prodigal Project continues, step-by-step, inch-by-inch, closer to reality.
Last week we finished the second draft of the screenplay. Calling this the second draft is somewhat misleading. We essentially started over, so perhaps we should call this the first draft of the second version.
If you'd asked me a year ago if we'd be working in this genre, I'd have said, "no way." But here we are. It's a movie about a church making a movie about Jesus' parable of the Prodigal Son. It is a comedy with a heavy dose of satire, designed to attract a distinctly non-church audience… but with a message for both Christians and non-Christians.
We're processing feedback from several readers. No doubt we'll rewrite several times between now and the time we begin production.
The church's Communication Team has initiated the process of establishing a separate entity – Bell Tower Pictures – to produce the movie. It will be an LLC (Limited Liability Corporation) under Virginia law, and will seek certification by the IRS under section 501c3 of the tax code – which means that it will be a non-profit corporation that can accept tax-deductible contributions.
We believe this project provides an opportunity for cooperation among many individuals, organizations and churches. So we've initiated conversations with some of these potential partners about joining us by providing money and in-kind support. So far, the response has been positive and enthusiastic. We're also seeking support from our own church, of course. This morning we presented our request in a meeting of church leaders considering priorities for the 2013 church budget. Next week we have the opportunity to ask for support from the First Baptist Church Endowment Fund.
We've been working on the legal incorporating documents for Bell Tower Pictures. That includes a clear, concise and accurate description of who we are: Bell Tower Pictures is an independent, non-profit corporation focused on producing, promoting and distributing high-quality Christian-themed film, television and web projects. Our mission is to entertain and inspire, telling great stories that reveal spiritual truth.
Next week, we'll begin production of a promotional video, which will be a key part of the Bell Tower Pictures website.
These are busy, exciting days as we see the vision begin to take shape.

It is an essential piece of equipment that requires expert diagnosis. Alternator and starter problems are often misdiagnosed, so it's important to have it checked by a reputable auto electrician.
If you suspect your alternator or starter motor is failing, make to contact our talented team of technicians with extensive experience handling and servicing auto electric parts. The earlier it is resolved the better it will be for your car's electronic system.

Department of Biomedical Sciences
I am Dr. Robert Visalli, associate professor of virology and chair of the department of biomedical sciences at Mercer University School of Medicine (MUSM). Welcome to the home page of the newly formed Department of Biomedical Sciences at MUSM. The Division of Basic Medical Sciences on the Macon Campus and the Department of Biomedical Sciences on the Savannah Campus have recently been merged into a single department of biomedical sciences, and we are excited at the possibility of greater collaboration between campuses in our teaching, research and service endeavors.
A strong clinically oriented, case-centered basic sciences curriculum emphasizing active learning of basic sciences in the context of its application, and occurring primarily in small groups of 6-9 students and facilitated by a faculty member (basic scientist / clinicians) has been a unique feature of the M.D. program here at MUSM since the school was founded in 1982. The Year 1 and 2 M.D curriculum has undergone significant revision recently with greater emphasis on integration of basic medical sciences with medical ethics, professionalism, and health systems science, and detailed information on the revised curriculum can be found here. The overall purpose of the Year 1 and Year 2 curriculum is to enable a strong background in topics foundational for Years 3 and 4 of the curriculum and for the subsequent study and practice of medicine. Foundational elements are found in biomedical sciences, and also include fundamentals of clinical medicine, health systems science, evidence-based medicine, humanism, medical humanities, and medical ethics.
In terms of pedagogy, in the new Year 1 and 2 curriculum, there also are large-group interactive sessions in addition to small group case based learning sessions. Some of the large-group interactive sessions use a team-based learning format. Nearly all faculty members in the department participate in the M.D. curriculum as facilitators of case-based learning in small groups, resource faculty in their areas of expertise, as evaluators of student learning, and as advisors for students.
I strongly encourage you to learn more about the research interests, current research, and accomplishments of faculty in our department, and to contact us if you have any questions. The Department of Biomedical Sciences is revitalizing research by recruiting additional faculty with major interests in scholarly activity, and by increasing collaboration between basic science and clinical faculty. Since 2012, the Division of Basic Medical Sciences on the Macon Campus has been offering a a one-year, non-thesis Master of Science in Preclinical Sciences program. The two main goals of this program are to prepare graduates for careers in science teaching, academic laboratory research, publishing or policy-making, and to enhance the scientific knowledge of graduates who desire to pursue a Ph.D. in the biomedical sciences, a medical degree through either a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) program, or other degrees in healthcare, such as in Pharmacy, Physician Assistant, or Dentistry. For more information about this program including applying, please visit this link.
The Masters in Biomedical Sciences Program (MS-BMS) is a research-intensive, thesis-based graduate program designed to prepare students for employment in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries; healthcare; teaching; and for further postgraduate studies at the doctoral level in medicine (M.D, D.O), dental medicine (DMD), or in basic and applied/translational research (PhD). Students in this program will work closely with research mentors in the department of Biomedical Sciences in the Macon Campus or the Savannah Campus. For more information about this program including applying, please visit this link.
