How to Be More Relevant to Your Customer Online 2019
As the internet grows, people are changing how they search for products. And businesses that recognize this can be more relevant to their customers.
For example, searches today have more nuance. People aren't just typing in 1 or 2 words to find products. They're using phrases and questions written in a way that mirrors how they speak naturally, as though they're requesting specific advice.
So rather than entering "mountain running shoes" in their searches, customers might write something like, "What shoes are best for running in the mountains?"
In my experiences, most people are looking for advice related to almost every purchase, from major expenses like phones and cars to small items like toothbrushes. That means, no matter what you sell, it pays to figure out how potential customers search for your products.
Another way search has changed is that people expect the results they get to apply directly to them. They want that personal touch.
Searches with "I," such as, "What shoes do I need for mountain running?" or "What should I wear to run off-road?" are rising. In fact, those starting with "can I," like, "Can I use X shoes to run in the mountains?" have grown over 85% recently.
People also want the "best," using that specific word more and more in searches. This applies to product searches (like "the best mountain running shoes") and lifestyle searches (like "the best ways to prepare for a run in the mountains").
If you understand your customers' searches, you can think about how to help people find your brand. Consider checking out one of the online tools that help businesses study search patterns, like Google Trends.
Beyond your specific business, it can be useful to understand searches related to your broader industry. Say you just sell clothes and shoes for running in the mountains – you might gain some insights from seeing how people shop for apparel used for running in the city.
Customers don't just want to rely on their own opinions when they're looking for the right thing to buy, though. Reviews play an important role in their searches, too.
The world's economy continues to grow, giving customers more choices than ever for where to shop. So they seek out other people's opinions, ratings, photos, and blog posts to find the truth about different brands.
Recently, mobile searches for "product reviews" have increased by over 35%. And videos on YouTube with the word "review" in the title had more than 50,000 years worth of watch time on mobile alone.
That means you need to tap into the power of other people's experiences. Encourage people to review your products and services on your website, your Google My Business profile, your Yelp Business Page, or elsewhere.
You can also ask for reviews from influencers or media outlets that evaluate businesses like yours. As your customers' research businesses, they'll likely seek these sources out, so it's important that you're part of the conversation.
Though it's great to get positive reviews, make sure that you're encouraging anyone who gives an opinion about your business to be open and honest. Potential customers are much more likely to trust a review that covers the positive and negative aspects of a business.
Once you've studied how your potential customers search for your products online, it's time to put that knowledge to use for your business.
Start by adjusting your website's search engine optimization (SEO) strategy. Use keywords, phrases, and content that respond to what people are looking for and how they look for it.
Adjust the text across your website, from the "About" and "Home" pages to specific product pages. Then edit any other text associated with your brand. If you have an app, for instance, update your app store listing, too.
Don't just focus on updating your product copy to improve SEO, though. Creating content like blog posts or videos can help people learn about your brand in a new way and help your business show up on sites like YouTube.
Mr. X studied what his customers were looking up online and updated his product pages for his mountain running gear to match their searches.
But Mr. X also wrote a blog post for his website called, "How to choose the best mountain running shoe." It lets his customers discover how to pick the best gear for themselves, showing off his know-how and his inventory.

This smoked salmon recipe glazed with butter and maple syrup is one we learned during a road trip around Nova Scotia. Seafood has a long history there. And with 13,000 km of coastline, you'll find lots of fresh fish, smoked salmon, scallops, and mussels on local menus.
Close to Nova Scotia's eastern shore and located right on the Liscomb river, Liscombe Lodge has a smoked salmon tradition that has been around for centuries, beginning with the salmon migration to the river and the Mi'kmaq Nation. Pete and I had the opportunity to chat with Chef Anne McDougall about the history as she smoked salmon for the evening's feast.
We discovered the secret is in the sauce as it's continually basted in a glaze made of butter and maple syrup. She wheels the plank right up to an outdoor fireplace and gingerly checks on it, continuing the basting as it smokes for up to an hour.
When we finally had an opportunity to taste it that evening, let me tell ya, I could have eaten the whole fish. But, what's not to love about butter and maple syrup?
The recipe is quite simple, and Chef Anne generously shared it with us below so you can make it at home on your grill or oven.
Here Are A Few Other Recipes We Think You'd Like
Butter Maple Smoked Salmon
- Prep Time: 10 mins
- Cook Time: 20 mins
- Total Time: 30 mins
- Yield: 4-5 1x
- 1/3 Cup Butter
- 1 Cup Maple Syrup
- 2 Tablespoons Chicken Stock
- 2 6-8 Ounce Salmon Fillets
- Cedar Plank (One or two, depending on size. Soak in water for 4-6 hours so it does not catch fire.)
- Melt butter and maple syrup together in sauce pan, stirring until smooth. Baste the salmon thoroughly with the glaze.
- If barbecuing on Cedar Plank: Place salmon fillets on plank, skin side on the wood. Place plank back on hot BBQ grill and close the lid.
- If baking in the oven: Lightly oil a shallow baking pan and place the salmon skin side down in the pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.
- Continue to baste the salmon with the maple glaze sauce every 5-7 minutes.
- Salmon is done when it is light pink in color and no longer looks translucent or jelly-like.

Students Q & A and Comments
Posted by Editor on July 23, 2006
In this section students of Taiji can ask questions, describe experiences and perspectives, provide feedback, or contribute anything relevant to their Taiji practice. It is open not only to students of Internal Arts IA, but also to any students of Taiji, who can feel free to join the open dialogue.

Hi, I posted a comment to "Mind-Intent and Force: Hong Junsheng's Perspectives" and wanted to ask if anyone can shed some light on the "triangles". (Some of my text got cut off; but it was just vague attempts to grasp what this concept refers to.) I do have some hazy notions about this topic but mostly, it's another of those areas that seems rarely mentioned, and even less explained, in Taiji writings. I am going back to the Practical Method book, rereading and re-pondering the movement descriptions which are detailed and full of complexity. I'd be grateful for any words that pertain to the "triangular" movements in Grandmaster Hong's method. Thanks!
October 5, 2006 at 10:01 pm
Internalartsia, I really thank you for this, it gives me something to work from. I suspected that this was something – like peng? 🙂 – difficult to manifest and yet still more difficult to discuss! So I had a premonition of your answer perhaps beginning with a reference to push hands. Also, I've heard of the primacy of the 45-degree angle in Hong method taiji, and I infer that that pertains here also… in a 3-dimensional sense. And I had thought of the tooth of a gear being triangular. So much for my penetration; now I need to work on this mentally and physically as you suggest. (Along with the Kua method!) I've barely gotten a grip on the Two Circles for that matter. It's great to have this "taijiquan garden" to till and weed!
October 13, 2006 at 4:03 pm
I'd like to ask a question about a term that appears frequently in Hong Junsheng's book. That is, where he describes movements as "grinding" or descibes a body part motion as "grinding out". This is not a term I've encountered before in taiji! But of course this is a translated expression and perhaps it's more common in China. Or is it particular to the Hong system? In English, "grinding" can suggest clashing forces, but I suspect that Hong means the grinding of a millstone, or mortar-and-pestle? Thanks for any enlightenment on this.
October 14, 2006 at 2:00 pm
Ah! On page 102 of the "Practical Method Vol. 1" I found further explanation in a footnote. Apparently I'm looking for a simple explanation of something very complex indeed; perhaps to the extent that "movement" is not even at the heart of it, but rather internal energies that must be felt to be comprehended. Still I note that it's this book that's brought it to light for me at least!
October 17, 2006 at 6:49 pm
[…] A reader named chenquestion submitted a very interesting question in our Student's Q & A section. Chenquestion Says: (Which is open to anyone for these types of questions by the way.) He wondered about Hong's usage of the term "grinding" which he refers to sometimes as he explains circular movements during applications. He wondered if the term implied force against force. So here we can explore Hong's ideas in a section from Volume one of Theory. […]

NOTHING has changed—
I can still hear
Soulful groans, mothers' cries,
As their children, ripped away from them,
Are taken for a "lil ride."
Lynchings continue…
Disguised and revolutionized under a guise
Of justice, but look into Their eyes
And you'll see
Smiling faces saying "Burn 'em alive!"
Only now
And "burning" is suffocation,
And the "cross" is made of steel;
Horizontally laid, surrounded by glass
So They can congregate, and still watch
A color'd be killed.
It's a drawn out process—
Approximately 6 years is what it takes;
For this type of death comes extremely slowly.
They drain the taxpayers dry,
While they say the appeal process is owed to me.
They have to make it look good!
They don't want society to start having thoughts
That They're snatching Us off the streets,
Doing to Us what was done to the Arawaks.
So what do we have?
Millions of dollars
Being drained from You for political gain.
Your money that's supposed to be used for our appeals
Is being rechanelled to the State Treasury's veins.*
Let's go back a lil ways
To the time of "old" slavery.
Any enslaved person that resisted
Was made an example
To their families and all other potential resistors
When dismembered, with their body parts trampled.
The shock value of such a scene was profound—
Instant subjugation by the mere sight.
And they're still being barbaric to subjugate a class
By this revolutionized dismembering of lives.
Comparing the past to the present—
Death Row inmates' families
Are afflicted by the same psychological warfare.
And by it, these families are thrown
Into a state of bewilderment;
An oppressive tool to suppress the fight they have left.
So, the fight is taken out of the families,
While their children are taken for the slaughter,
And used for the accumulation of money.
While the government pockets those tax-payed dollars.
As our society's morale evolved,
So did the system's, superficially
So that Their means of profit won't be taken away.
They've sugar- coated what's ordinarily repulsive.
Executions and Lynchings, it's all the same.

The NAA's executive committee has decided to cancel our annual meeting scheduled to be held in Denver May 6-9, 2020.
This is the first annual meeting that has been canceled in the 73 year history of the organization. The decision follows weeks of ongoing review of the world-wide Covid-19 pandemic. In doing so, we have been acutely aware of the widespread and fast-developing health, social and economic impact of the spread of this virus.
Based on our review, we concluded that it is in the interest of the health and safety of all concerned to cancel the meeting. In reaching this decision, we have taken into account public health warnings and advice about travel and group gatherings. We also are making this decision now, seven weeks before the meeting, because our members and guests should know of our plans rather than wait weeks longer. For a period of time, we hoped that the fast-growing problem would stabilize and even decline, but that plainly is not happening.
The Operations Center will process registration refunds over the next few weeks. Thank you for patience and understanding as we work through these issues. As a reminder, please be sure to cancel your hotel reservations.

Agile Health Insurance offers affordable health insurance alternatives to high priced ACA plans. The new ruling by the Trump administration extends the length of short term policies from 3 months to 12 months. Healthy Americans no longer have to pay higher costs for their health insurance by being forced into ACA plans because the new Trumpcare ruling also eliminates the penalty for not having ACA insurance in 2019.
This rule took into review many of the potential issues raised by the industry and health care professionals but what critics miss is that Americans simply cannot afford health insurance plans in excess of $100 per month.
Americans who are unable to afford insurance have thus far chosen to go without.
This new rule changes that by creating more options.
Starting October 1st of this year, 3 month plans will now be able to be purchased for 1 year and extended three times.
These plans are definitely not for everyone. If you have chronic health issues, you do not want these plans. They are much lower priced than typical ACA plans because they don't cover maternity care, or have prescription drug coverage. Short term policies don't cover preexisting conditions either.
But if you are healthy and want to prevent against an unexpected accident, these plans are great. Most of them will cover your hospital visit.
There is another big advantages of Short Term Health Insurance over other forms of major medical insurance such as an Obamacare (ACA) plan or an employer-based plan: there is no open enrollment restrictions, so you can apply at anytime. You will be notified within minutes if your application is approved, and you can use your coverage as early as the next day!
Companies like Agile Health Insurance specialize in affordable Short Term Health Insurance plans and you can review the health insurance alternatives to the ACA on their site.

Regular grooming of your pet can prevent health issues, keep your pet's skin healthy, and even help them bond with you. Be sure to adhere to the following grooming standards to keep your pet healthy and content:
Dogs need baths, but typically only once every few months. So, unless Spot is getting into the garbage can on a regular basis, you don't need to bathe him every week. In fact, doing so can strip his skin of natural oils he needs to stay healthy.
Brushing often is a great idea! Long-haired breeds could do with brushing each day if you have time for it. Shorter haired dogs don't need brushing as frequently, but regular brushing can help significantly cut back on loose fur around your home. Be cautious; if you find tangled fur, be very gentle and do not try to pull it out! Contact a vet or groomer for further advice.
Baths can usually be avoided for cats altogether unless they have a tendency to get oily or sticky. When this is the case, be sure to brush him thoroughly beforehand. Then, use lukewarm water with mild cat shampoo.
Brush your cat as regularly as possible! This can help prevent your cat from accidentally consuming too much fur and coughing it up later as a hairball. Keep your fur brushing sessions in between 10 and 15 minutes; otherwise, you risk upsetting your cat.
If you are looking for a pet supply distributor with a great selection of pet shampoo, you've come to the right place! The Flea Killer Guys has everything you need to take care of your pets. Shop today!

It's impossible to talk about Chinese tofu recipes without mentioning the all time hit and the sensational dish with a big buzz — Ma-po tofu. Rich, appetizing, spicy but not too hot. It can be prepared as a vegetarian dish, or cooked with beef or pork mince. However you like it, it is the combination of tofu, bean paste and and Sichuan pepper that gives the dish its distinctive and rich flavor.
One of the key ingredients is Sichuan pepper. What does it taste like, if you can call that a taste? I couldn't have described it better than this Wikipedia entry, "they produce a strange, tingling, buzzing, numbing sensation that is something like the effect of carbonated drinks or of a mild electrical current (touching the terminals of a nine-volt battery to the tongue)." You get the idea, although I think it's more like a 110 volt shock if you bite into a fresh Sichuan peppercorn! So why would Chinese want to use such a thing for cooking? Because of the addictive flavor and sensation it brings to a dish that nothing else could. There is no substitute.
Another key ingredients is Pi-Xian (meaning Pi county) bean paste which can be found in many Chinese stores overseas. I usually keep away from commercially prepared cooking sauces but this one is an exception and truly deserves a place in the pantry of anyone who wants to do more Chinese cooking. It is made from broad beans and fresh chili through a long and complicated fermenting process. The Pi county in Sichuan province, owning to its climate and water quality, is renowned for producing the best quality bean paste. Most store owners will be able to help you to find it if you tell them you are making Ma-po tofu. Make sure it is made of broad bean instead of soy bean.
If you are unsure about the idea of navigating through the aisle of a Chinese store looking for something you can hardly pronounce, then one good alternative is the Lee Kum Kee chili bean sauce, which can be often found in your local supermarket, usually around where you will find soy sauce. The purists will probably insist on getting the Pi-xian paste, the Bordeaux of all broad bean pastes, but I think this is a great alternative. There are also a couple of Ma-po tofu recipes on the Lee Kum Kee website you might want to try, but I've noticed they don't use Sichuan pepper. To the eyes of a native Chinese, Sichuan pepper to Ma-po tofu is like almond to marzipan. Having said that, the recipes still look delicious to me no matter how I think the dishes should be named. I often cook a similar tofu dish without Sichuan pepper. Check it out — Simple Home Style Braised Tofu .
While most of the time we cook with a hot wok on high heat, this dish starts by flavoring the oil with various ingredients on medium heat before adding tofu. The sauteed chili sauce is much less hot and the pepper less numbing, and you have a dish with more balanced flavors. Make sure the oil stays below its smoking point and is not too hot to prevent burning the pepper and the garlic. You might also need to add a one or two tablespoons of water during cooking if the tofu is a firmer variety containing less water.
Preparation: 5 minutes Cooking 7 minutes
- 400g tofu cut into 3cm cubes
- 1 tbsp Sichuan peppercorn*
- 1 tbsp Pi-Xian bean paste or Lee Kum Kee chili bean sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 spring onion, chopped
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
Turn the heat to high, add tofu and soy sauce, stir-fry for 30 seconds. Cover the wok, gently cooking for 4 minutes on medium heat; stir occasionally, add 1 or 2 tbsp of water if necessary. Turn off the heat, add the remaining spring onion. Serve.
* You can also use finely ground Sichuan pepper. Follow the above method, except adding 1/2 to 1 tsp of ground pepper at the very end with the remaining spring onion after the heat is turned off. This gives the dish an even stronger flavor for those who love the electrifying sensation of Sichuan Pepper!

- Trains don't have to loop around like they do in a half cloverleaf.
- Trains must slow down to climb a slope.
- Trains must turn left to go right. This could lead to trains getting lost. (Can be fixed by using waypoints). This is no longer an issue with newer OpenTTD versions that use a more advanced pathfinder.
- Costs a lot and requires a moderate amount of space to build.
- It's best you make it so your longest train can fit completely into one of the turning tracks without blocking the main line behind it.

"Magnificent! You've never seen anything until you've seen the sun through the rings of Saturn!" --Alex Rebar as astronaut Steve West, shortly before returning to Earth and malforming into a big pile of goo.
There are countless "bad" movies out there. I should know; I've seen a lot of them. But, when it comes to The Incredible Melting Man, there's simply no way to accurately describe how truly bad it is. But this one is one of those fabled "good" bad movies, the kind that is best enjoyed with copious amounts of alcohol and/or hallucinogenics. Or, as I like to call this particular kind of flick: it's "epically awful."
The story here is a dorky tale of a doomed astronaut named Steve West (Alex Rebar), whose fateful trip to Saturn results in his entire body beginning to melt once he returns to Earth. After he escapes from the confines of a bizarrely industrial-looking "hospital" -- which is staffed entirely by one portly nurse and a single doctor (Lisle Wilson, from Brian De Palma's Sisters) -- Steve rampages the surrounding countyside by feasting on his human victims, because he needs the blood or marrow or something. Really, folks, that's what the movie's about: a guy that's melting.
Hot on Steve's trail is his friend, Dr. Ted Nelson (Burr DeBenning), whose powers of sleuthing aren't what you might call "laudable." In fact, Ted is downright terrible at it, but he's not to blame: he's under strict orders from government brass -- mainly, General Perry (veteran B-movie performer Myron Healey). And so, Steve continues to stagger around, leaving an oozing trail of liquefied blood and flesh in his wake -- terrorizing fishermen, kids, and softcore goddess Cheryl "Rainbeaux" Smith alike (who appears as a model).
One of The Incredible Melting Man's painfully-delightful highlights involves DeBenning's onscreen near-ancient horny mother-and-law and her persnickety equally-elderly boyfriend being stalked (and subsequently eaten) by the creature. The scene was also lovingly riffed when the film showed up on Mystery Science Theater 3000 during its Seventh Season -- as was the rest of the movie. But then, it's hard not to laugh at just about anything The Incredible Melting Man throws at you (barring some of Rick Baker's impressive special effects, of course).
The film's humor, however, is where the controversy starts. According to The Incredible Melting Man's writer/director William Sachs, the vehicle was originally intended to be a parody of the gloriously-amusing Atomic Era sci-fi flicks from the '50s. Sachs has gone on to say that the film's backers changed their minds midway through the production, deciding to remove many of the film's comedic elements, replacing them with new, more "horrific" moments.
If it's true, it would certainly account for a great deal of things -- such as why what's left of the Melting Man is scooped up at the end of the movie by a janitor. And why the film's "red herring" moments are so laughably cliché. And why the acting is so bad. And the dialogue. And, well, you get the idea.
Over the years, The Incredible Melting Man has earned its own special cult following among fans of "bad" movies. When DVD first came out, said fans started crossing their fingers in hopes that The Incredible Melting Man would soon find its way to disc, boasting a vast array of special features. Hell, if Basket Case could get a Special Edition release, why couldn't this one? Sadly, such a DVD never came to pass. And now, more than a decade later, Basket Case is being released on Blu-ray, while The Incredible Melting Man has been quietly issued onto DVD-R via MGM's Manufactured-On-Demand "Limited Edition Collection."
While the lack of any special features -- a common procedure with these MOD releases -- is more than a little disappointing (although there is a TV Spot, incorrectly labeled as a Theatrical Trailer), I have to say it's a pleasure to actually see The Incredible Melting Man in its original widescreen 1.85:1 ratio (which is anamorphic, thankfully) and with mono stereo sound. Pleasing enough, MGM's entire presentation of this wonderfully-corny creature feature is quite nice overall, and I heartily recommend it to any of my fellow fans of "epically awful" movies like this one.

NATO representative among three killed in explosion at Ukraine defence enterprise
Added On July 30, 2016
KIEV, July 29 (Xinhua) -- A NATO representative was among three people killed in an explosion at a defense enterprise in Ukraine's northern Sumy region Thursday afternoon, Natalia Naumenko, a spokesperson for the Prosecutor's Office of the Sumy Region said Friday.
"Among those killed are a transport worker born in 1975, a test engineer born in 1989 and a NATO representative born in 1985," Naumenko told local media.
Two more people wounded in the blast are receiving treatment in hospital, and their condition is stable, Naumenko said.
The explosion occurred during unloading munition brought in for utilization, at the testing station No.2 of the State Scientific Research Institute of Chemical Products (SSRICP) -- a scientific branch of the Ukrainian state-run defense company Ukroboronprom.
The press service of the company said later that the recycling of the munition was carried out under the supervision of the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) in accordance with the deal signed in 2013.
According to a statement by Ukroboronprom, the NATO representative was a Ukrainian citizen working for the NSPA.
Over the past three years, the SSRICP has utilized about 5,000 tons of munitions, the statement said.

Annie Grace Wilson is a Public Relations Specialist for Diversity Best Practices. She regularly produces content for a variety of blogs that cover topics from leadership to team training.
For me, the best example of productive relationship building is offered by the movie "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps." A young employee goes to extremes to take revenge on the person he blames for his mentor's financial collapse. Such stories make me think that a business is not always about making money.
Call me a cynic, but I still believe that no matter how much you learn and try to do everything that they say a true leader must do, you won't become one if you weren't born with leadership qualities. Most of all, I doubt that you can learn confidence and trustworthiness – these must come naturally.
Which is more effective: the ability to subordinate others or the ability to coordinate their achievements? These skills are equal in effort but different in results. Someone who has the talent to combine the contributions of tens or hundreds of employees with fruitful results will naturally win the people's respect. Those who take pains to get recognition have little strength left for making money.
All human being born equality. Identities got created due to various happenings, the upbringing of society, etc. etc.
To get into a TRUE leadership role, one should UNLEARN all these PERSONALITES… There are ways to get there. Knowledge, educational qualifications or inherited business or position is not LEADERSHIP.
I would like to chat with Ms. Annie Grace Wilson.

Vinyl Graphics
The Crown Estate required Studio One to design, produce and install printed vinyl graphics to a PVC interlocking hoarding system, during the refurbishment of the Primark Store at Fosse Park.
As an identical style of system, as used by Hoardtek, the hoarding was constructed around the store and covered a perimeter over 170m in length. Graphics were printed to a removable vinyl with an anti-graffiti laminate which could easily be removed at the end of the project to allow the PVC panels to be recycled and used on other similar projects.

Penn State Football: Tommy Stevens To Join Moorhead At Mississippi State
After announcing his intent to transfer following Penn State's annual spring scrimmage, former Nittany Lion quarterback Tommy Stevens will play his final season of collegiate football at Mississippi State, joining forces with head coach and former Penn State offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead.
Stevens' announcement comes after a series of official visits to schools like Mississippi State, Miami (OH) and Illinois. The grad transfer will be immediately eligible to play in Starkville and will compete for the starting job returning backup quarterback Keytaon Thompson.
While Stevens was weighing multiple options following his decision to transfer, heading for a reunion with Moorhead had always been the most obvious option. For Stevens it gives him the potential to showcase his talents on the SEC stage, Mississippi State will host both Alabama and LSU this season.
For Moorhead, it gives him a familiar option at quarterback after the graduation of Nick Fitzgerald following the 2018-19 season. It remains to be seen if Stevens is a shoe-in for the job or if he and Thompson will take part in a genuine quarterback battle this summer.
"We look forward to Tommy joining our team and completing his final year of eligibility as a Mississippi State Bulldog," Moorhead said in a press release. "Tommy is very talented and will be an excellent addition to our roster. He will have the opportunity to compete at quarterback this season. With nearly 100 days until kickoff, we are excited about our summer preparations as we continue to build a program that will make Mississippi State fans proud."
Stevens has not spoken publicly about his decision to transfer but did offer up a long statement on Twitter as part of Friday's announcement.

Previously on Deadly Class: All of the students at King's Dominion are put on lockdown and forced to stay in their rooms after Yukio is murdered (by Maria, and on El Diablo's orders), and Master Lin demanding answers. When Marcus is caught sneaking out, Lin interrogates him until Marcus finally opens up to him and tells the truth about what happened. Lex, Petra, and Billy decide to have a threesome to resolve all of their unresolved feelings for each other. Saya and Maria end up at each other's throats. And Marcus tells Maria and all of his friends the truth about Chester and his blackmail scheme.
THE STORY SO FAR: Saya discovers that Chester and his family/cohorts are all staying at the home of Shabnam's parents, which is boobytrapped to keep anyone from getting in or getting out. Once she informs Marcus and company of this, they devise a plan on how to infiltrate the house and take Chester down and dispose of Chico's corpse for good. Meanwhile, Willie decides that he's had enough of the corrupting influence that King's Dominion is having on him and his friends, so he decides to pack up and leave town with Gabrielle. And Master Lin finds out where he truly stands with both Gao and El Diablo, and ends up having to fight for both his life and the lives of his wife and daughter.
WHAT'S GOOD ABOUT THIS EPISODE?: Marcus confronting Lin as to what is the entire point of what he and the other students are being taught at King's Dominion and what they're expected to do with the skills and knowledge they're being taught. Marcus and company convincing Lex to put his damn money where his mouth is and show how deadly he is by helping them go after Chester. Marcus recovering from his hangover and showing us what happens when you attempt to fart and end up filling your pants with projectile liquid diarrhea. Saya showing Marcus how to have fun at a punk concert and join a mosh pit as part of that fun, followed by Saya responding to Marcus' request to share something personal about herself by kissing him passionately before the two of them proceed to have sex. Gao discovering at the last moment which horse that Viktor and Brandy-Lynn have decided to back. Saya disobeying Lin's orders to go help Marcus and company take down Chester. And Lin and his family paying the price for Saya's loyalty to her friends thanks to El Diablo and his crew breaking into Lin's house and attempting to kill everyone as payback for what happened to Cico, and ends up killing Shu, Lin's wife, and sending both Lin and his daughter on the run for their lives.
WHAT'S NOT SO GOOD ABOUT THIS EPISODE?: As much as I like Willie and Gabrielle and think they do make a cute couple, there hasn't been enough development to care anything at all about their relationship or the two of them leaving town together.
IS HENRY ROLLINS IN THIS EPISODE?: No. His character is still in hiding.
IS CHESTER A.K.A. FUCKFACE A.K.A. MARCUS' ROOMMATE FROM THE ORPHANAGE IN THIS EPISODE? AND IS HE STILL HAVING SEX WITH ANIMALS?: He certainly is, as he opened up the episode showing off his singing talent (I know, right? Who knew?) and then quoting First Blood after Shabnam's father attempted to escape from the house and wound up getting killed by one of Chester's boobytraps.
DOES SAYA GET HUNTED BY ANY MORE OF HER COUSINS FROM TOKYO?: No. But she is confronted by Lin in her dorm room as he reminds her that her training and services belong to him until her education is complete and she returns to Tokyo.
HOW MANY F-BOMBS ARE IN THIS EPISODE?: A couple.
ANY MURDER/DEATH/KILLS IN THIS EPISODE?: Rest in peace, Shabnam's dad. And all of the human furniture in Gao's office who ends up dying at the hands and razor-sharp weapons of Lin, Viktor, and Brandy-Lynn.
TO SUM IT ALL UP: Other than the Willie-Gabrielle storyline which has me Jane Lane-shrugging about it, this was a fun and terrific episode to set up how this season is going to end. You have Willie leaving town and having us wonder if he'll actually come back to his friends, and if Gabrielle will be by his side if that happens. Gao and El Diablo declaring war on Lin, and Lin having tk not only protect himself, but also his daughter who everyone is supposed to think is dead, and Marcus and company getting ready to unleash hell on Chester and his people. And we haven't even gotten to the Marcus/Saya/Maria triangle as well as the fact that Saya is going to be in so much trouble with Lin (if he survives this ordeal) for disobeying orders and abandoning her post. (Granted, she had no reason to know that it was Lin's own family she was assigned to protect, but still). There's going to be so much bloodshed and drama and more bloodshed to end this season next week, and I'm looking forward to seeing how this all plays out.

text: James Norton 24 Report post Posted February 26, 2014 LG were very keen to show off their new G Pro 2 at MWC this year and rightly so. It is a rather good looking device sporting LG's minimalist design language that translates into super thin bezels, fantastically curved edges and buttons on the back. Yes, the G Pro 2 looks just like a G2 and that can only be a good thing.The back of the G Pro 2 is a big upgrade though with the same rather pleasant matt finish as the red G2. The G Pro 2 comes in Titan, White and Silver. Titan seems to be LG's name for almost black.Inside the G Pro 2 packs a great punch with a 2.3Ghz Snapdragon 800, 3Gb RAM and 16 or 32Gb of storage. The back is also removable exposing a micro SD slot and 3200mAh battery. In a perfect demonstration of the compromises forced on manufacturers by having a removable back, the battery is less than 10% larger than the G2 despite being a much larger phone as LG were unable to use a stacked battery. Is this a compromise you welcome?The camera is the same 13Mp shooter found on the G2 and the G Pro 2 launches with Android 4.4.2 on board.Have a look at our hands on and let us know what you think....

WARREN, Ohio (WKBN) – The mother of two young children found wandering by themselves in Warren pleaded not guilty to two counts of child endangering at her arraignment Friday.
Thursday evening, around 6:30 p.m., two employees of the Rite Aid on Parkman Road said they found two boys, 4 and 5 years old, playing in the store. At first, they thought the children's parent was waiting at the pharmacy but when they realized the kids were alone, they asked them questions and called 911.
The boys told the employees they "walked there to buy things by themselves," according to a police report.
"I just don't think, you know, she realizes what she has and how serious it could have been. They could have been injured, they could have been kidnapped," said one of the store's employees.
Officers were able to track down the mother, 24-year-old Rebecca Rice, at her apartment, which is more than half a mile away from the store.
When police arrived, they said the door was open and they saw a man jumping out her window. She told them she had been sleeping, police said.
"We're lucky. Any time young children get out in the city unsupervised, you know that can be serious injury or death," said Tim Schaffner, executive director of Trumbull County Children Services.
Officers said she never asked if her children were alright.
Rice is being held in the Trumbull County Jail without bond. A judge ordered she not contact her kids unless Children Services approves. She's due back in court on Feb. 6.
According to police, the temperature was 31 degrees at the time. They said the boys probably would have had to walk 20 minutes to get to the store.

With IPv4 Internet adresses becoming scarce, thinq_ has interviwed Axel Pawlik managing director of RIPE NCC the RIR that services Europe, and reports that there's growing evidence of a new net land grab as large companies snap up the few remaining addresses.
As Internet users finally realise the limitations of IPv4's address space, the hard work for regional internet registries (RIRs) is actually coming to an end. For years the five RIRs that service the globe have been pointing out the need to migrate to IP version 6 (IPv6) but with no more IPv4 addresses left, time is running out. And when it comes to clearing up the last available dregs, it seems that cash is king.
Last month Microsoft paid in the region of $75 million for 666,624 IPv4 addresses from bankrupt network firm Nortel. Microsoft isn't the first company or person to pay for IPv4 addresses but its decision to buy so many at a time when everyone knows IPv4 is on its way out, puts into sharp focus how companies believe that IPv6 deployment isn't ready to take the strain.

You jackwagon, that's a Lenovo Thinkpad! Don't you know the difference between IBM & Lenovo?
its fu'king Lenovo!
Lenovo sucks
haha nice comm
i believe that if the water didnt get inside…the heat didnt kill the componets then yes believeable
this crap has an 8mb video card
I remember I had it 😀
right now i use a thinkpad t43 writing this comment! THINKPAD FTW
Why your telling me that story?
I would have killed mine if she did this to mine.
What a stupid commercial! That would never happen.
Gg esta nice tHe comERciaL
Yeah, its very robust, but the performance of my T42 im writing this with sucks ass. Seriously -.-
Right now as i write this comment i'm using an IBM T60 XD
I owned a T40, 4 years past warranty and still going on strong. It used to be able to play all my games (halo 1, cod2 and gunz) maxed out (spare for games when it ran vista as a test) It cant play games anymore but it still works in every day life. But it just cant move anymore. It's suffering the white lines disease (but still working). my poor thinkpad. Good thing my HP DV7 is there to help it cope. =(
favorite laptop ever! and totaly grama proof
using a thinkpad rite now its awesome!
CoMe BaCk WhEn YoUr BaLLs DrOp
dude sony and ibm are the best non apple manufaturers idiot. Army uses ibms and apple also sony.
Simplemente los mejores equipos personales que existen, por su performance y resistencia! Aunque me gustaban mas siendo IBM y no ahora como Lenovo =(
U caN SUCk MAh D1cK sTupid kiD!
Well, everything including the bath in the kitchen sink is really believible, but the oven? I'm not too sure about that.
I think all ThinkPads are indestructible 😀
My 11 year old TP 600 is still in perfect condition!
The T40 is indestructible. I know it first hand.
very true, it can survive through anything, i spilled an entire cup of coffee all over the keyboard while studying for finals last year, and here i am typing this post on it!
You know, some of you need to get out of the past. Yes IBM made computers for Hitler. Yes they were involved with the Nazi's. That doesn't make them a bad company now, and shouldn't reflect on whether you buy one. The quality of the product is good, stop dwelling on a business decision from the past.
@myid9876543 Read "IBM and the Holocaust" They made computers for hitler to go through family history and see if one matched their definition for being Jewish.
@myid9876543 if they didn't have ties to nazi germany i would like them a lot more as a company
@alienmode dude what?
5000$ what a bargain!
you can find this keyboard in LAPTOPPARTSTORE in all languages including Russian, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Italian…
nice keyboard
man that's sick…. if IBM wasnt so integral to the holocaust theyd probably be my favorite tech company…
thats sweet
Whoa, that's pretty neat. Always liked IBM.
I wish modern laptop/netbook keyboards were as innovative!

The GA Senate committee assignments for the 2010-2011 Regular Session of the Georgia General Assembly have been announced. Click here to visit the Senate's website and review the assignments.
At the bottom of this post I will list the members of the all important Senate Rules Committee. The Rules Committee establishes the rules for the orderly procedure and placement of bills on the legislative calendar.
Senator Don Balfour (pictured to the top left) is back for the 2010-2011 Regular Session. Why do I say he's back? Well, for a brief period Senator Balfour wanted to leave state politics for Congress; however, he changed his mind about Congress AND briefly the State Senate. Here's an excerpt from one of Senator Balfour's press releases from March 2010.
"Being a congressman has been something I thought I wanted to do. Needless to say, when John Linder announced that he was not running for re-election, I jumped at the opportunity to be the new voice of leadership. However, for the past three weeks, I have not been at peace about this decision. I feel this is an appropriate time to let all my supporters know that I will also not be seeking reelection for the 9th district senate seat."
Flash forward to April 2010 for a press release from Senator Balfour:
"I would like to thank my family, friends, and devoted supporters who reached out to me and encouraged me to continue leading and making a difference in the lives of Georgians by seeking re-election for the 9th District Senate seat. I have spent many nights worrying about the safety of my son in Afghanistan and the future of our country at home. There is still much to be done and I simply cannot continue to make the changes that Americans need from the sidelines. In times like these, what our state needs most is a dedicated, seasoned leader who will stand up for what's right and put Georgia back on the road to economic recovery and prosperity."
Here's to hoping that the Senator Balfour left his flip-flopping nature in 2010!

Quidditch is a competitive wizarding sport played by witches and wizards all around the world. It has also travelled to the muggle community as well.
Normal Quidditch has 7 players per team. 3 chasers. 2 beaters. 1 keeper. 1 seeker.
In this game two teams go against each other flying on broomsticks. It's like football (soccer for American's) in the air and throwing not kicking and three goals not one.
Chasers: the Chasers try to score using the Quaffle.
Beaters: the Beaters hit the Bludgers (two enchanted balls that hits players) away from the other players.
The Keeper: the Keeper is basically a goalkeeper.
The Seeker: the Seekeer has to find the tiny golden snitch.
Quaffle: the quaffle is a round ball the Chasers throw to each other and into the hoops. When thrown into the hoop that team earns 10 points.
Bludgers: Two enchanted balls that hit the players.
Snitch: A fast tiny little ball with wings. Once caught the team who caught wins 150 points and it ends the game.
While Quidditch was the first (and so far, only) broomstick-based game to attain near-worldwide popularity amongst the wizarding people, it was certainly not the first broomstick game. In truth, Quidditch probably owes a debt to a number of its forerunners in making it what it is today. All of these archaic broom games were popular in localised areas, but none had the vast appeal that Quidditch today has. The beauty of Quidditch was that it took the best aspects of all its predecessors, added its own unique twists, and ended up as a game that would remain popular with the masses for centuries.

LTDA's E-Taxi Signage Article In Taxi Paper Confirmed As Fake News By TfL
With the amount of Fake News being banded about by a certain org trying to discredit other Taxi news sources, the London Cab Drivers Club, for the sake of clarity, asked TfL compliance if the signage featured in a post on Taxi Leaks (which was referred to as Fake news in the LTDA Taxi paper) was actually proposed to the DfT by TfL.
At the recent TOPS meeting, TfL confirmed that it was indeed they who submitted the e-Taxi bus lane templates to the DfT for approval.
They added that although the signage was approved, there are no plans (as yet) to introduce the signage on current bus lanes across London.
But the question now needs to be asked, as the LTDA's Richard Massett had access to the original templates, why did they crop the TfL signage out of the images shown in Taxi.
Why were they trying to cover up that TfL had submitted the signage and why did they infer that the signage was intended for Manchester. A statement that has now been shown to be FAKE.
But it's all cleared up now, the Fake News was not the post on Taxi Leaks, it was in fact the article that appeared in Taxi Paper. This has been confirmed by TfL.

text: (Bloomberg) -- Tsogo Sun Hotels Ltd. climbed on its Johannesburg stock exchange debut as the South African hotel operator attracted investors with the potential of its portfolio of properties..The stock rose to 4 rand by the close Wednesday after first trading at 2.7 rand, valuing the company at about 4.2 billion rand ($280 million). Some 700,000 shares were traded. The hotel operator was carved out of Tsogo Sun Holdings Ltd., which declined. That company now houses the group's casino operations.."Many stocks are deemed undervalued on the JSE right now and management teams are trying to find ways to drive share prices higher," Nolwandle Mthombeni, an analyst at Mergence Investment Managers in Cape Town, said by email. "This move allows investors to invest in either the casinos or the hotels.".The newly listed company has 110 hotels, with a combined total of almost 19,000 rooms, ranging from budget to deluxe offerings. Tsogo Sun Holdings has said the hotels division services a different customer base to the gaming division and is subject to different demand and risk profiles, particularly in regulation.."They have a very strong hotel portfolio and although it's still operating at lower than desired occupancies, it's a much lower risk and has a more stable earnings profile," Mthombeni said. "If business confidence recovers, it will do well.".The gaming business relies largely on South African consumers' discretionary spending, which makes it higher risk and liable to further challenges if the economy doesn't improve, Mthombeni said..To contact the reporter on this story: Adelaide Changole in Nairobi at firstname.lastname@example.com contact the editors responsible for this story: Blaise Robinson at firstname.lastname@example.com, John Viljoen, Jon Menon.©2019 Bloomberg L.P.

I've used my new AVON Magix Face Perfector SPF 20 a total of 2 times.
My verdict? My new HG mattifier!
Seriously, this is love. The box says it keeps the face matte for 10 hours. I haven't had it on my face that long. At most for 7 hours maybe but it did keep my face matte.
Last time I wore it was Friday of last week. I was busy running around fixing our papers, passports for our trip next week. It was also VERY hot and humid. I think the news said it was 38-40 deg. Celsius that day. (Probably why I was so thirsty all the time). I was sweating buckets but my face was still matte. Matte but not flat :-)
I didn't break out and good thing is it has an added SPF 20. I hope we get this locally soon because it is only available in AVON US sites. (I had to ask someone to CP it for me after hearing about her good review on it).

From the Italian FreeBSD Users Group, this tutorial series shows you how to get ELK stack up on FreeBSD. Elk is a combination of the open source software Elastic, Logstash, and Kibana, designed to help analyze data in real time. View the links below for the full instructions.
ELK is the new black, it seems, so let's give it a try.
Suppose that we have a bunch of servers where a simple application ir running smoothly:operator@srv1 $ /usr/local/bin/myapp -c /usr/local/etc/myapp.cfg --log /var/log/myapp.log
I know, myapp is completely uncool (and boring), so let's make some noise.
Suppose that we want a dashboard to inspect /var/log/myapp.log coming from all servers so basically we need:
- to search within logfiles;
- to filter per host/datetime/colour_of_my_tshirt;
- to create some nice dashboard to see how our new iMac 5k will render it.
You have basically two choices:
- convince your colleagues to help you logging on each server, learn to regexp and to dashboard ( then you'll spend a lot of money in beer for your colleagues), or
- use an ELK stack (and buy beers only for yourself).
We will follow the second approach, because a real sysadmin doesn't have colleagues, only enemies.
ELK stands for ElasticSearch/Logstash/Kibana because well, we will need all of them.

Re: women's boutiquetomy_print Oct 8, 2010 1:27 PM (in response to egeil12)which style, what way, what age...clothes, hair style, decoration?...etc, such wide area, maybe you need to find out an orientation first.
Re: women's boutiqueegeil12 Oct 8, 2010 1:55 PM (in response to tomy_print)Sorry, I should have been more specific!
It's a fashion forward, high end womens clothing boutique. My target market is women 30-39, married with a Household income of $50,000- $100,000. Most of our merchandise will be bought on buying trips to market in Dallas and LA. I don't want a huge store, somewhere around 1,000 sq ft, maybe 1,500. I don't want to over buy for store opening. but i also have no idea what i should be spending, what an average is, what to plan for...
Re: women's boutiquetomy_print Oct 8, 2010 2:06 PM (in response to egeil12)Hello, this is tomi, can you contact me for further more? my email is email@example.com
Re: women's boutiqueshjkila Jul 21, 2012 11:14 AM (in response to egeil12)
Forbes magazine had a quick little article on this that we used years ago.. http://www.forbes.com/2007/01/09/startupcost-inventory-rent-ent-manage-cx_mf_0109fundamentalsretailcosts.html They estimate that your cash outlay will be for 6 months before you make money and your profit margin is only 5%, hopefully part of the salary is yours so that your actual income is higher. The best tips that I can give you are your location will make or break you. People will drive off the beaten path to find you but you really want to put the effort in to finding a great location with excellant foot traffic. Also buy wisely, use established luxury markets such as http://maeok.com and have designers come in to your boutique with trunk show events. Get your name on local fashion week invitation lists. Maximize resources such as Fashion Night Out and HARO which help drive business and free publicity to you.
Thank you.

Please join us for our next Speaker Series welcoming Miléna Kartowski-Aïach and Donna Legault this coming Tuesday, January 30 at 2pm at the SenseLab.
2pm: Miléna Kartowski-Aïach
The presentation will be in French and I'll accompany it with artistic examples such as visual art, music, poetry, dance. In the fall of 2014, I started my PhD's ethnography in Israel, right after the Gaza war, not knowing yet if it would be "only" field research or also a complex life project of migration, called alyah. Was I an artist, a researcher, or both? A witness-body at the threshold of multiple physical and symbolic borders? I couldn't perceive the limits of the research and my inner ones in such an environment where the personal was entangled with the heavy geopolitical context.
My research focuses on the young generation of Mizrahi (oriental and north African Jews) political artists, who are trying to reconnect with the culture and identity from their ancestors' "native land" and create a bridge with the Muslim world. The Mizrahi Jews have been marginalized and discriminated against since their arrival in the "promised land", and areconsidered to be the "second Israel". They have distanced themselves from their arabness and millenary history, in order for them to become the "new Israelis". This young artistic generation, through its artistic territories and gestures, create the promise of a bridge toward the Muslim world and the potentialities of "forbidden" collaborations with their "Arab" counterparts, within a third space of digital territories. They are often considered to be traitors by the national Israeli narrative and moreover when they join forces with Palestinians. They evoke nostalgia for a lost past and exile in the promised land, as well as the vacuum of history they have been facing while growing up. What's home? What does it mean to belong to? How to cross the prohibited borders and operate homecoming? What does it mean to feel like a Jewish refugee on the inside? Is it possible to be multiple in Israel and advocate for a rhizomic/levantin becoming? How does identity making become a political struggle and reveal an alternative Israeli society which can fully belong to the region?
Here, I would like to question the potentialitiesof Mizrahi political art at the margins of Israeli society, and how through rites of returns together with a living and performative memory, the artists attempt to reterritorialize themselves in a present open to the other who becomes an ally and no longer an enemy.
Miléna Kartowski-Aïach is a PhD student in the Department of Anthropology at Université d'Aix-Marseille-Idemec, leading her PhD project on "A song of Exile in the Promised Land? Political art by young Mizrahi (oriental and north African Jews) artists in Israel: Identity making, rebellion and desire of return." She has conducted fieldwork in the Moroccan Atlas Mountains on Judeo-Berber culture and in the Djerba Tunisian island among the Jewish community after the Arab spring, as part of her Masters research. She is also a singer specialized in Yiddish, Hasidic and liturgical Jewish traditional repertoire, as well as a poet and theatre director working in France, Europe and America. She attempts to bridge her research in the social sciences and her work as a practicing artist through anthropological, political and experimental laboratory theatre. She recently staged a play in Paris, Leros – un Exil Insulaire chez les Damnés, based on her experience in Leros (Greek island), called the island of the outcasts. The play was inspired by her encounter there with Iraqi Yezidi refugees, survivors of the genocide perpetrated in the Shingal region by Isis, and the co-creative and therapeutic process she developed with young yezidi women through singing.
3:30pm: "in-animate" with Donna Legault
The talk is an invitation to engage together in considering creative practice as a collaborative and performative process that moves between human and non-human encounters.
Donna Legault is an artist and researcher currently based in both Ottawa and Montreal. She holds degrees in Art History from Carleton University, in Visual Arts from the University of Ottawa and is an MFA candidate in Intermedia at Concordia University. Her practice-led-research investigates opportunities afforded by technology to explore human-non-human relations through gesture and resonance at the limits of human perception. Donna's research is disseminated through modalities of motion and sound via electronic installation, sculpture, drawing and performance.
Her installations have exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions, festivals and conferences, across Canada and abroad. Recent engagements include The International Symposium on Electronic Art (ISEA2017) in Manizales, Columbia; The International Marketplace for Digital Art in Montreal; and The Leitrim Sculpture Centre Professional Residency Program, Ireland. Current and upcoming exhibitions include, Open Codes at the ZKM in Karlsruhe, Germany; Àdisòkàmagan at The Ottawa Art Gallery; and The International Digital Art Biennial (BIAN2018) in Montreal.

This project will be conducted at SunPork Farms Brinkley Piggery complex in South Australia and will reduce the methane emitted from the piggery's wastewater treatment system.
The Australian Pork Limited sees greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from pork production as a major priority for the industry, contributing to around 0.4 per cent to Australia's overall GHG emissions. The largest emission source at a conventional piggery comes from the effluent treatment system in anaerobic ponds.
The project, being run by SunPork Farms, is being conducted under the destruction of methane generated from manure in piggeries method. The project has been contracted to deliver more than 22 800 tonnes abatement in the fourth emissions reduction fund auction.
In this project a new anaerobic lagoon will be covered with high density polyethylene cover and will serve as the primary lagoon for the complex. The methane and carbon dioxide, also known as biogas, from the wastewater will be collected from the lagoon. The methane component of the biogas will be combusted using a continuous spark open flare, which will prevent it from being released into the atmosphere.

The most powerful intelligence official in the United States told a Senate committee Wednesday that National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden is a hypocrite and that he and his supposed accomplices should return any classified documents he still has.
Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr. said in an unusually contentious Senate Intelligence Committee hearing that Snowden's decision to leak a trove of classified NSA documents to the press has hurt US security and tipped off suspected terrorists on potentially safer ways to communicate. Clapper, who told the same committee the NSA did not collect information on millions of Americans months before being proven wrong, also insinuated that Snowden had help.
"Snowden claims that he has won and that his mission is accomplished," Clapper said during his opening remarks to the committee, as quoted by a transcript published by the Washington Post. "If that is so, I call on him and accomplices to facilitate the return of the remaining stolen documents that have not yet been exposed to prevent even more damage to US security."
The director did not elaborate on what he meant by "accomplices," but a spokesman insisted he was "referring to anyone who is assisting Edward Snowden to further threaten our national security through the unauthorized disclosure of stolen documents related to lawful foreign intelligence collection programs."
A number of journalists on Twitter interpreted that as a threat to Glenn Greenwald, Barton Gellman, Laura Poitras, and the number of other reporters who have published information based on the Snowden documents.

I Won!!!
Posted by Gladys Jimenez on Sunday, August 13, 2017
Glad at Art Tradition Gallery
Hello Beautiful Art Friends,
I attended last week my friend and fellow artist, Darrel McPherson's art reception and he had a drawing for two of his beautiful paintings and I won!!!! I was the first winner so I could choose which one I wanted. I'm thrilled that I won as I have purchased two of his paintings before and this will make a great addition to my collection.
I hurt my back a couple of weeks ago lifting a table and somehow I pulled something, I could immediately feel it. It seems to be taking a bit to heal so I haven't been able to paint as much as I would like to as some movements really hurt.
I did start a painting of a violinist. I love violin music, sometimes that's all I play when I do paint. While at the Normal Heights Farmer's Market I spotted a musician playing his violin and asked him if I could take photos. He nodded yes, so I took photos and video. I returned today to the market and showed him the painting that is almost complete and he loved it! He was really impressed so once I finish it, I think I'm going to gift him a print of it.
My son is now stationed in San Diego for almost a year so we have postponed our moving until next summer. I went to Liberty Station Artwork today and since I will be here next summer, I'm applying next year for a both. Hopefully I will get it.
I am planning on participating on another 30 paintings in 30 days Challenge next month. I will be making small paintings on mat board again. It was a great challenge last year and looking forward to it again.
This is it for now.

Will the black beetles of 2018 be back in Suffolk this summer?
PUBLISHED: 07:30 18 June 2019
In June 2018 black beetles swarmed in Suffolk, leaving residents covered in bugs - will they return to East Anglia in 2019?
At the start of the summer in the UK last year, pollen beetles, which arrived in larger numbers than usual due to the hot weather, formed large clouds and were attracted to bright clothing.
While the beetles were prolific in 2018 it is unlikely they will appear in such numbers with the cooler forecast for July and August this year - which means another insect may benefit from a different climate.
Steve Aylward, head of property at Suffolk Wildlife Trust, says Suffolk's ecology is key to maintaining a healthy insect population, which in turn feeds an entire wildlife food chain.
He said: "Whether it's in gardens or farms you are going to want as many wild flowers as possible.
"If we're not careful it can become a bit of a downward spiral - if the insect population drops, the animals they feed will go into decline.
"If we want to carry on calling ourselves the greenest county then why not plant more wild flowers?"
You may also want to watch:
Described by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) as a nuisance but not harmful, the pollen beetles were a glut in the food chain for birds and mammals that feed on insects.
Other bugs have caused concern and alarm in recent years - in 2016 and 2018 a sudden rise in harlequin ladybirds sparked panic after reports some of them were capable of carrying sexually transmitted diseases.
Potentially poisonous brown-tail moth caterpillars were spotted in Cambridgeshire in June this year, with some residents saying they were left with rashes or asthma attacks after coming into contact with them.
Mr Aylward added: "It's nearly impossible to predict all the insects we might see every year, but there are some that we can expect.
"It's not uncommon to see a large number of ladybirds arriving from the continent.
"Some species of butterflies might make the journey here as well, like the painted lady.
"Occasionally you will see long-tailed blue butterflies, they have turned up all over the coast before but they don't breed here, they're not a native species."

Terminal Upgrade
Last month I went down the rabbit hole setting up my terminal on my Windows laptop. I had been using Git bash for all of my git & Github work, but did not have much other experience with the command line and wanted to improve my skills and upgrade my tools. As a starting point I followed the free video series from Wes Bos called "Command Line Power User." The goal of the video series is to get you up and running using Zsh and oh-my-zsh. I also used the GitHub repo "CmderZSH" by Dylan Fontana to help with some of the nitty gritty of installing on Windows. I decided to go with the Powerline9k theme to add some customzation.
My Current Setup
I won't get into the process of setting it all up as the links above can help you with that. With that being said, here is my current setup:
- Cygwin ("...provide functionality similar to Linux on Windows")
- Mintty (default terminal emulator for Cygwin)
- Cmder (console emulator)
- Zsh (Z shell)
- oh-my-zsh (framework for managing Zsh configuration)
- Powerline9k theme
Opening Files and File Explorer
After spending (more than anticipated!) time setting it all up, there was still something that I was struggling to get working. In Wes' videos, he has examples of opening files in his code editor using the 'open' command. I could not get it to work for me and after trying a few different things unsuccessfully, I left it and came back to it later.
The Solution
After some searching, I came across the answer that I was looking for. In Windows, we have a similar command to 'open' and that is the 'explorer' command. Here are a few examples of the command in action.
Open a File Explorer
Open a File Explorer in Current Directory
Open a File with the Default Program
Open a File with VSCode
*different command but similar functionality
That concludes my first blog post since I started learning to code! I have benefited greatly from so many posts and articles and I am hoping that I will be able to give back by sharing what I am learning as I dig into JavaScript and work towards landing a full time remote dev job. Best of luck to everyone on their goals for 2019 and I hope to post again soon.

Good work, command line is a powerful and effective way to work. Soon you will be sick of pointing and clicking :)
A few suggestions:
- bash might be a better option than zsh as it's far more commonly used.
- instead of git bash, look into MSYS2 (git bash is an inferior subset)
- instead of Cygwin, why not use WSL (windows subsystem for linux) and get a real linux environment. (PS: I use "wsltty" for a nicer terminal on the WSL)
Thanks for your reply. I'm enjoying Zsh at the moment so I'm going to stick with it for now, but I will keep those other options in mind. WSL isn't an option on my laptop, but once I upgrade, that's definitely the way I'm going to go.
