The Rock's "Rampage" rules...
Jeong Beom-sik's sleeper hit "Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum" was denied a third-straight week at the top of the pile with the arrival of "Rampage" and John Krasinski's "A Quiet Place". Based on the video game series by Midway, "Rampage" follows a primatologist (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) and an albino gorilla who, due to rogue experiments by a greedy genetics company, grows to King Kong proportions. The film arrived in Korea last Thursday and claimed pole position over the weekend with 608,122 admissions ($4.9 million, or 35.19%) from 909 screens.
"A Quiet Place" is a low-budget horror starring Emily Blunt and John Krasinski that sees humans overthrown at the top of the food chain by superior creatures. Produced for just $17 million, the film has already grossed $151.3 million worldwide; in Korea, its first weekend out yielded 207,454 admissions (12.17%) from 677 screens and narrowly outplayed Steven Spielberg's latest, "Ready Player One" (which is based on the popular novel of the same name by Ernest Cline). With the 191,430 admissions (11.59%) Spielberg's new adventure garnered, "Ready Player One" has now grossed $16.9 million from just over 2 million admissions. Since its international released late last month, this sci-fi adventure film has now grossed nearly half a billion dollars. The highest local film was up next.
Lee Byeong-heon-I's fourth film, "What a Man Wants" starring Lee Sung-min, Shin Ha-kyun, Song Ji-hyo and Lee El, was down two places at fourth with just 10.83% of the sales (185,854 admissions, or $1.5 million). Set on the beautiful Jeju Island, Lee's comedy drama follows four people in search of true love on the gorgeous and gusty island. Since its release on April 5th, "What a Man Wants" has earned $7.6 million from a million admissions.
In his recent review of last weekend's number on Koreanfilm.org, film critic Kyu Hyun Kim wrote that "Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum" showcases "Jeong's considerable prowess as a horror specialist". Since its release late March, this minimalist horror has surprised by grossing $19.1 million from 2.5 million admissions, 166,139 admissions (9.54%) of which came from this past weekend. Around 20,000 stubs behind "Gonjiam" entered "Intention", a documentary that presents a scientific account of the sinking of the Sewol Ferry. The film had 569 screens around the country to pool from and attracted 8.25% of the weekend sales: 145,809 admissions, or $1.1 million.
"Stand By Me", a family drama by director Bang Soo-in, her directing/screenwriting debut, slid three places to seventh with 51,644 admissions (2.67%), followed by "Snatch Up", a new local action thriller by Heo Joon-hyeong, another debutant. "Snatch Up" scored just 27,364 admissions (1.49%) from 463 screens. The final two places went to "Spark: A Space Tail" and "Be with You" earning 24,595 admissions (1.21%) and 21,716 admissions (1.21%) respectively. Lee Jang-hoon-I 's "Be with You" has been active in the charts since mid-March; with this weekend's tally considered, "Be with You" is currently the sixth highest-grossing film of the year with 2.5 million admissions ($19.2 million).

Oregon Crusaders will not field a corps in 2019
luv4corps replied to GetOFFmyDot's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsBless you for really wanting to get at the truth. I responded to your PM with names and details. It makes me sick that people just joke about a perfectly fine corps going down. That's social media for you. Just make fun of things. Until it hits you directly, there is no risk. I haven't been able to come on here since posting several days ago because to see OC's good name dragged through the mud makes me physically ill. No corps is perfect. They make mistakes. This was a tough year for drum corps. But OC is getting hosed so bad and they don't deserve it. They don't. This is a good corps, started from a pile of rubble by people who love drum corps and love these kids. To blow up situations into major sexual harassment claims in order to influence members and staff and usurp a corps is WRONG. And THAT is what happened.
Oregon Crusaders will not field a corps in 2019
luv4corps replied to GetOFFmyDot's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsThis, this, a thousand times this.
Oregon Crusaders will not field a corps in 2019
luv4corps replied to GetOFFmyDot's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsThis is the usurp camp talking. If anyone wants to know what I know about the main sexual harassment claim from last year, please PM me. I am not comfortable talking about it in the forum but I will discuss it privately. And please, I am a woman and have been sexually harassed on several occasions. I know what sexual harassment is, and what it isn't. To say the new tour staff had no agenda... please. They were ready to take over the corps. Give me a break.
Oregon Crusaders will not field a corps in 2019
luv4corps replied to GetOFFmyDot's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsTo the members that were victimized by Mike Stevens, I am truly sorry. He was a horrible man and never should have been allowed near young people. That being said: My son marched five years with this corps and had the time of his life. There is a lot more to the story of what happened last year (MS was no longer on staff) and sadly, it will likely never be known. Let me just say that to the best of my knowledge, the demise of this corps was the result of a perfect storm of very unfortunate events, some of which were clearly the fault of the corps, some that were not, and the timing of the whole thing. As far as I know (which is probably more than most on here), OC was willing to take full responsibility for their part. They wanted to move past this as the Cadets were able to do. There is a lot of misinformation out there, even within the corps. A certain new, but high ranking staff member last season was very influential but with nefarious intentions for usurping the corps. Social media is a very powerful thing and truth gets twisted and spun to serve agendas. (Just look at current US politics for a prime example of this). All the haters out there should be happy. The trash talking worked! I really hope OC comes back. I'm not sure I will without them so come at me guns blazing. I have said my peace, and am too heartbroken to continue any discourse.
Field judges restricted to front sideline in 2019
luv4corps replied to karuna's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsThe antics of the field judges can sometimes play like a show within the show... and are quite distracting for sure! As an onlooker, one is constantly on edge, fearing that a crash will occur. I agree, if it is that distracting to watch from the stands, it could only be more so for the judge him/herself.
Pacific Crest 2019 - Everglow
luv4corps replied to CrownBariDad's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsSounds intriguing. Can't wait to see what PC has to offer this year. I can't say enough about that Hollywood show last year. I was completely enthralled from the time I first saw them at the Portland show, which was very early on in the season. There was a lot of growth in the corps. Keep it up PC!!!
I really hope this 'best practice' idea of sharing information about potential staff member problems catches on among the collective corps. I also sincerely hope that drum corps can move on from this. I believe it can, as many other organizations involved with youth are experiencing the same sort of period of reckoning, and everything can't just stop because bad people exist. That would mean the perpetrators have won.

luv4corps replied to Crown Phan's topic in DCI World Class Corps DiscussionsOC is full speed ahead at this point and committed as ever to provide a great member experience. In addition to the new design team recently announced, the medical staff and head drum major are for sure coming back and it is believed that some members will be coming back when the facts of what actually happened last year are fully known and sorted out. Important fact #1: individuals on the medical staff were witness to some of the incidents/reports/discussions that came up last year - and they are all coming back. Important fact #2: DCI has taken no punitive action against this corps after matters were investigated And NO I am NOT on the BOD. If I were, I wouldn't be allowed to post here. I am a super fan & supporter, former cook mom/volunteer, and a donor. I believe in this corps and that OC will weather this storm and be stronger for it.

Abstract:Many children in Europe are confronted with family law disputes in which their future is at stake, but their voices are silenced. Although the benefits of child participation have been established, the question remains as to how children should be heard or represented in family law disputes in an appropriate and child-friendly manner. The proposed research will combine human rights, interdisciplinary research and an extensive comparative legal research to answer this question by developing an evidence-based European model. This child participation model for family law disputes will significantly benefit children in Europe by providing impetus for legal reform.

AllMusic Review by Eduardo Rivadavia
1987's R.I.P. album represented a pretty inconspicuous start for Swiss trio Coroner -- one whose modest ambitions they would quickly outdistance on their way to morphing into one of thrash metal's all-time most adventurous bands. Guitarist Tommy T. Baron and drummer Marquis Marky had only recently quit their jobs as roadies for avant-thrashers Celtic Frost in order to join forces with vocalist/bassist Ron Royce and, their instant musical chemistry notwithstanding, the group was still trying to figure out a way to translate their shared virtuosity as players into comparable levels of songwriting inventiveness. Mere flashes of their potential were revealed here, with occasional, darkly ambient instrumental song snippets making their way among blistering examples of typical '80s thrash metal, though the two never quite meshed into the awesome sonic weave that would characterize later-day triumphs. No, though they were commendable enough in their own right (and at least on par with much of the competition), album highlights such as "Reborn Through Hate," "When Angels Die," and "Spiral Dream" (with lyrics written by former mentor and employer Thomas Gabriel Warrior) exceeded expectations only when it came to the disorienting speed and the labyrinthine complexity of their execution. Elsewhere, the manic instrumental "Nosferatu" offers yet another jaw-dropping technical showcase, the unusually stupid "Fried Alive" sticks out like a sore thumb, and the closing "Tolentanz" suite delivers a strong finale. Ultimately, R.I.P. is a more-than-respectable debut rendered less impressive by Coroner's subsequent accomplishments, but it should provide a welcome addition to any thrash metal enthusiast's collection nevertheless.

Princess Anne Hotel Partners with Stash Hotel Rewards
Princess Anne Hotel, the 16-room historic Asheville inn that guarantees true Southern hospitality, today announced that it has partnered with Stash Hotel Rewards, the nation's largest points-based rewards program for independent hotels. As a result of this new partnership, Stash members are now able to earn and redeem points at this charming bed and breakfast in North Carolina.

The hotel has 16 spacious suites, made-to-order breakfasts, and complimentary afternoon wine and hors d'oeuvres – with a staff that prides itself in friendly, southern hospitality. The Princess Anne is located in a quiet, relaxing part of Chestnut Hill, only a 15-minute stroll to the eclectic downtown of Asheville.
"The Princess Anne Hotel just celebrated their 90th anniversary and embraces its roots in Asheville's history," said Jeff Low, Founder and CEO of Stash Hotel Rewards. "The inn provides an experience similar to visiting your loving, wealthy Southern aunt and uncle – allowing travelers to enjoy all of the beautiful, luxurious comforts of an inn with the warmth you can only find in a place like Asheville."

Do You Get Overwhelmed By Other People's Strong Emotions?
Do you know what everyone around you is feeling?
Do you monitor every room you're in and know who comes and goes and whether they are upset or not?
If you answered yes to one of more of these questions, you're an empath; and this course will change your life for the better forever.
There is a very specific way in which empaths hold their energy fields. It creates safety in the fact that it gives you an early warning system for other people's upset. But it also works against you in a lot of ways. You may hear that you are intimidating or overwhelming or you might be called a force of nature. You also have the downside of not being able to shield yourself from other people's strong emotions - positive or negative. Ever find yourself saying yes to a date only to wonder later why you agreed to go on a date with someone you didn't really like? Blame your empath nature. You were picking up on the other person's desire for you and you didn't realize it wasn't your emotion for them.
All of these challenges are the price you are paying for your current way of holding your energy. Change this pattern and you'll never be subject to the whims of other people's emotions again.
Learn how here.
One person who listened to this program when it was part of a larger program said that this recording was worth the entire $700 she had paid for the whole program. Good thing for you, you won't have to pay anywhere near that amount to get this valuable information.

Since seeing MR I have been puzzled over the ending. Last night, I realized something that has really helped. Agent Smith is deleted. It comes down to purpose. Agent Smith's purpose is to kill The One. We are told many times that once a program's purpose is fulfilled it is deleted. Neo sacrifices himself to fulfill Agent Smith's purpose, and thus make Smith elegible for deletion. Upon absorbing Neo, Smith is confused and wonders aloud, "is it over?". Neo/Smith nods with a big grin. The machines then issue the command and announce "it is done". This explains why only Neo and the machines together can kill Smith.
Earlier, Smith philosophizes with Neo, saying "the purpose of life is to die". That is, the purpose in life is to identify and fullfill your purpose. By doing so, you will die.
Only at the end of MR is Neo truly The One. Why? To become The One you must free yourself from all systems of control. In the end Neo simply refuses to die, to "have an end". Smith: "Why, why get up? Why keep fighting? [...] Is it freedom [...]?" Neo: "Because I choose to". Neo has attained ultimate free will. For that, the machines honor him by raising his body to the sky. Morpheus (M1): "Free your mind". Note that Smith finally calls Neo by the name "Neo" (not "Mr. Anderson") when he says "Everything that has a beginning has an end, Neo." Does this mean that the Oracle was dominating him at that moment, or does it mean that Smith has accepted that Neo is The One? If the latter, then it explains why Neo must survive until that moment. Smith immediately says "What did I just say?". That too can be taken either way. Could mean that he didn't hear himself, or that he is reacting to his own word choice.

Here is a recipe for healthy falafel. You can fry but I prefer to bake. I am continuing to improve this recipe so check back for an update.
What ya need:
1 can Garbanzo (chick) beans. Or approx 2 cups fresh
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 bunch parsley (approx 1/4 – 1/2 cup)
1 tbls cumin
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tbls olive oil
1 tbls water
1 tsp kelp seasoning (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup flour and more for rolling (I used whole wheat but you can use any you like)
This is the kelp seasoning I use. I actually put it on almost everything including pastas, rice, veggies, and salads.
Kelp is a form of algae that is very good for you. Kale has high levels of vitamins, A, B, C, D, E, and K, as well as a number of minerals, trace elements, and amino acids. It helps improve the immune system, maintain a healthy metabolism, digestive system, may reduce blood pressure, and aids in healthy skin. You can buy kelp powder, tablets, and flakes.
Preheat oven to 375.
Add all of the ingredients above to a food processor. Process for about a minute until it is well combined and has formed a paste.
Coat cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
Form into balls and roll onto excess flour to coat. Place on cookie sheet. Bake for 13-15 minutes on each side.
Enjoy on a salad, in a pita with hummus, or alone!

Spoiler Alert...if you've come this far, be warned!
I knit both of my cuffs in time, then Clue #2 for the leg clue came out. Holy cow, how many rounds?
...and then...
I got sick. A cold, the flu, I don't know.
No time, no energy, no ability to focus on charts.
Today was better, so I finished one leg AND heel, because, yes, Clue #3 came out before I had made enough progress on Clue #2.
Crummy photos, because I still feel cruddy and devoted my energy to knitting.

If you work with multiple images, cropping them all individually to the exact same size can be a real pain. Or perhaps your images need a watermark, but you have a batch of 30 to edit. Editing them all at the same time can save you a lot of time and energy. Here's how to edit multiple photos to make your photo editing more efficient.
In this guide, we cover Windows, MacOS, and Chrome OS. All three platforms have native tools to make simple edits to your photos and images. However, there's no native way to manipulate more than one image at a time. That means we must turn to third-party solutions.
While there are plenty of paid applications that will gladly take your money in exchange for batch edits, we focus on capable free software.
Batch edit in Windows
For Windows, we use an open-source Photoshop replacement and a plugin:
GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP) – The biggest threat to Adobe Photoshop is this free, open-source desktop program. It has mostly everything you need to manipulate images, like cropping, color adjustment, adding effects, layers, and more. We highly recommend this software if you want to avoid Photoshop's monthly subscription.
Batch Image Manipulation Program (BIMP) – This is a free plugin for GIMP that adds batch editing to the open-source desktop software. You need to install GIMP first, followed by this tool.
Once you install both tools, you can use them to edit multiple images simultaneously.
Step 1: Open GIMP and click File on the main menu.
Step 2: Select Batch Image Manipulation from the drop-down menu.
Step 3: A pop-up window appears. Under Manipulation Set, click the Add button.
Step 4: Select a manipulation on the resulting pop-up menu.
The next window you see depends on the manipulation you choose. Here they are at a glance:
- Resize – Alter the height and width in percent or pixels. You can also use a Stretch, Preserve, or Padded aspect ratio, and change the interpolation. It also lets you to change the image's X and Y DPI settings.
- Crop – You can use a standard aspect ratio, a manually set aspect ratio in pixels, and designate a starting point: Center, top-left, top-right, bottom-left, or bottom-right.
- Flip or Rotate – Flip your images horizontally or vertically, or rotate them 90, 180, or 270 degrees.
- Color Correction – Adjust the brightness and/or contrast, convert to grayscale, or use automatic color level correction. You can also change the color curve using a settings file stored on your PC.
- Sharp or Blur – Move a slider left (add sharpness) or right (more blurred).
- Add a Watermark – You can apply a text-based watermark you type into the window, or select an image stored on your PC. You can also set the watermark's opacity level and location.
- Change Format and Compression – Convert your image to one of 10 formats, including JPEG, GIF, and TGA. There's also a quality slider ranging from 0 to 100.
- Rename with a Pattern – Enter characters to keep the original filename without an extension, use incremental numbers, or use the captured date and time.
- Other GIMP Procedure – Select from a list provided by GIMP, like Posterize, Bump Map, Blur, and loads more.
For each manipulation window, be sure to click the OK button so it's saved in the current manipulation set.
Step 5: Click the Add button again if you want to add another manipulation to the set, as shown above.
Step 6: Click the Add Images button located under Input Files and Options and select the images you want to edit in bulk.
Step 7: Select an output folder.
Step 8: Click Apply to begin the batch edit process.
Batch edit in MacOS
While you can install GIMP on MacOS, there is no version of the BIMP plugin for Apple's platform. Instead, you can turn to PhotoScape X on the Mac App Store. There are two batch edit features locked behind a "pro" paywall; however, the basic necessities like cropping and resizing remain free. Trouble is, the overall interface is a bit clunky, especially if you heavily rely on GIMP.
Step 1: With PhotoScape X open, click Batch located on the menu.
Step 2: Click the blue "plus" icon next to Add Folder on the left to load the folder containing your images.
Step 3: Your image gallery loads in the bottom left window. Drag the images you want to edit up into the top center window.
Step 4: On the right, select the manipulator you want to apply to the images. Like the GIMP plugin, you can apply multiple image manipulators before exporting the altered images.
Here are the available manipulators at a glance:
- Crop – Click the up and down arrows to widen or expand each side based on the center of your images.
- Resize – Change the width and/or height in pixels, change the aspect ratio, widen or shorten the edges, or enter a custom size.
- Color – You have lots of options here, like applying automatic levels, contrast, or colors; brightening or darkening; adding HDR; adjusting the clarity; changing the overall temperature, and more.
- Filter – Here you can add film grain, vignette, and bloom or sharpen the images. Other options include reducing the color and luminance noise.
- Film – Add up to six effects pulled from the app's huge library spanning Film, Duotone, Overlays, Old Photos, Dirt & Scratches, and Textures. Some of these are locked behind the "pro" paywall, however.
- Light – Like Film, you can add up to six effects pulled from the app's huge library spanning Light Leaks and Lens Flares.
- Insert – Add up to six inserts: Stickers, Images, Figures, Filters, and Text.
Step 5: To export your modified images, click the Save button.
Batch edit in Chrome OS
Google's operating system is a different story. Since it heavily depends on the web, getting a tool that edits images in groups is currently near impossible. Chrome OS supports Linux, but installing the Linux-based version of GIMP and the BIMP plugin may not be worth your time unless you're an experienced Chromebook owner. The BIMP plugin doesn't even have an installer, meaning you must download the source files and install it through the Terminal.
Other web-based and Android apps can include batch editing but throw the feature behind a paywall. These include Polarr Photo Editor, Lightroom, Photoshop Express, and Pixlr. Paid solutions likely handle batch exports like GIMP's plugin and PhotoScape X.

Wherein your sombre blogger emits a puerile titter
I've just won an ebay auction for a second-hand skirt (note: ebayers don't just buy [pah!], they win), which skirt is described by its seller as having "a sweetflowy bottom". I think she was referring to the hemline.

When it comes to exercising, the modern society usually thinks of workout in the gym because gym provides us easy access to all kinds of equipment and types of exercises. However, running still remains as one of the most popular exercises that people all over the world choose. Although gym is among the best choices for workout, you should also consider the perks of running for diversifying the workout routine so that you can freshen up yourself once in a while.
1. Running can get you high in a healthy way
According to a study published in Experimental Technology in 2010, our brains produce endocannabinoids which are cannabis-like molecules while we run. This substance can make runners happy and relaxed in a more natural way than weeds do.
2. Running flattens your belly
Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory conducted a study in 2011 to find out the effectiveness of running in fighting off big bellies. After studying more than 100,000 runners who ran 35 or more miles per week, they noticed that these runners gain less weight in belly throughout their mid-life years than people who didn't run or seldom run. Therefore, if belly fat is the most stubborn part in your body, you might consider running from today.
3. Running burns more calories compared with other types of exercises
It is stated by trainers at Whole Body Fitness in Portland, Oregon that one hour of running burns 600 calories which is twice as much as calories burn in weight-training workout during the same length of time. In comparison with other types of calorie-burning workouts, running is also known to burn the highest amount of calories, an essential thing in weight loss training and a healthy body.
4. Running is convenient
When you choose to run, you just need to prepare a few things such as a nice shoes, a comfortable shorts and shirt and seek for a nice route to get started. Moreover, you don't need to commute to a specific place like gym. When exercises become convenient, you may feel that you can begin at any time. There you go with exercising motivation.
5. Running can make your bones stronger
Unlike weight training workouts that target specific areas of our body, running, in fact, can strengthen your bones and muscles at the same time. According to Jason Fitzgerald, a USA Track & Field-certified coach, running can prevent you from the risk of weak bones and osteopororis.
Now, you've understood basic benefits of running and might want to hit the track right away. However, just like other types of exercises, you need a plan to optimize the impacts that you can have from running. We've designed a running plan for beginners for your reference, but you can certainly change it along your needs.
For all weeks
Week 1
Week 2
Week 3
Week 4
Week 5 and beyond.
To sum up, to make exercises more interesting, you can try running once in a while with the above schedule. Along the way you might surely make some more friends to color up your routine and give you a shot of motivation for a healthy lifestyle.

It has only taken us about four weeks to sit down and finish this blog post.
The power of persistence. . .finally prevails.
Over the course of the past year, we have learned the importance of celebrating the little things.
It's been just over a year ago since our "wild" year started on the day the "handyman's" shop burnt. Tickets were purchased back in November for a hockey game. . .that just so happened to mark the one-year date of that event. This wasn't planned and come that night, it seemed evident that God's plan was for us to all be together and to have fun that night. Plus. . the Wild were on fire! 8 goals meant 40 cents off gas the next day! Score.
February also brought the excitement and celebration of two quilt patterns.
We were seeing stars light up the sky come the start of February. This quilt pattern can be found in the March/April edition of Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting magazine.
This lap size quilt features "Authentic, Etc." by Sweetwater of moda. Those of you who like Sweetwater fabric know that their very first fabric grouping was called Authentic. This line made it's debut before we realized we liked their stuff. Lacey held onto the dream someday she'd own some of it, and the excitement she experienced on the day she seen this new group was like none other. Shortly after our box arrived this beauty was born.
Two weeks later. . .
Cherry Street.
Spring-thyme flowers bloomed on the pages of Fons & Porter's Quilting Quickly pages two weeks later. This quilt pattern is also in their March/April magazine that is currently on newsstands.
For those of you faithful followers, this pattern was our very first published piece with the Fons & Porter gals. Our original was done with aqua, brown, cream and black.
This project shows combines both batiks and cotton that happens to have metallic in it. Very different mix for us gals, but we love the outcome.
We want to give a special thank you to Audrey Borning who did the beautiful quilting on this project. "Thank you dear friend!"
We decided after all of this excitement we needed to kick it in high gear and create in our "one butt" sewing room in an effort to come up with some new projects to show off at the quilt shows we have coming up both this month and next.
(Take a minor detour with us for a moment)
We went and seen the 2Cellos when they were in the cities back in January.
Back in October we vended a quilt show in Plymouth. Those who joined us (and it wasn't many) would have heard this lovely music in our booth. Those of you who did indeed see us at the great quilt shows in South Dakota (Watertown & Sioux Falls) heard this as well, and may have seen one of us "boogieing" on her stool.
We decided back in Plymouth that if these 2Cellos ever made a trip to the USA and happened to stop in the cities were were going. No if's and's or but's about it.
And they did!
We were part of the sell-out crowd at the newly renovated Target Center and the concert did NOT disappoint. As a matter of fact, we plan to attend the next time they come our way, and plan to take the men in the family with us. (Yes, even they were not only impressed but also rocked out cellos)
We of course had a great laugh before we made the venue. Those who travel with us on our bus trips know they are an adventure, and no matter where we go this holds true. We were two country mice in the big city and we were out of our league. We missed the parking lot we planned to use, and thought driving around the block was no biggie.
But it was!
We wound up at a light that cycled, and cycled and cycled and we were not able to cross. There were busses, and people both homeless and workers, and bouncers across the street by strip clubs and the light rail. It was truly sensory overload for us country mice. Traffic may have backed up a bit because we were too scared to goose it.
Eventually Lacey convinced Darci that she'd pay for the ticket to run the red light.
And ya know what. . .she was one very proud daughter as her mom did just that. No flashing lights came.
We proceeded to the parking ramp we should have went to all along, where we not knowing any different got honked at for stopping too soon. Thankfully the honking man yelled at us for where to get our ticket. After carefully watching people we chose a group that we were sure was headed to the concert as well as we had no idea how to navigate the sky system.
Back to the music. . they are phenomenal!! We highly recommend checking them out.
As we sew in our "one butt" sewing room, we tune into them.
We will share this first one with you, please imagine us sewing away to this song.
By the way, we sew fast, and barefoot.
With that peppy song in mind, we invite you to see a few of our newest projects. We plan to share more before the New Ulm show in a couple of weeks.
"Magnolia Blossoms"
This project shows off English Paper Piecing and features three different hexagon sizes all of which work perfectly with a mini charm pack. This one shows off some timeless Kansas Troubles fabric. The embroidery in the center just seems to make this project.
"Abigail Lane"
Lots of cold days and evenings spent watching hockey leads to an assortment of hexagon projects. This features one-inch hexagons and Bonnie & Camille's "The Good Life" fabric along with some dainty embroidery in the centers. The name comes from the black lab who warmed my feet while it was being sewn.
Inspiration Peak
Lovely garden trails out of Hazel & Plum by Fig Tree makes for a lovely embroidered garden pathway. Taking a more unique twist on shape, this oval is completed with two different sized hexagons and remains mini charm friendly.
Meadows of Thyme
We love Biscuits and Gravy (by BasicGrey) and the food. This charm friendly project shows some irregular edges and applique and is just fun for the transition from winter into spring.
Continue to persevere in your creative projects and we will in ours!
Until next time,
(enjoy one more of our favorites)

Journey of Kate Middleton from being a fellow university student to a Royal Highness
In her journey from a Berkshire village to the Buckingham Palace, Catherine Middleton, now the Duchess of Cambridge has remained an enigma for most. Her name is everywhere, be it the media, print, blogs, everywhere. Not only has she enamored the charming Prince Williams' heart but also becharmed all the men's heart.
In my sophomore year at the University of St Andrews in Scotland I came across Kate and Prince Williams who were my fellow student. Kate was a student in History of Art while William began with the same but switched to Geography later. During their first year at the college, they lived at St Salvator's Hall, after which they shared a common accommodation. Their love for each other grew more in all these years and finally on 16 November 2010, it was officially announced that Prince William was to espouse his long-time girlfriend Catherine Middleton during the spring or in summer of 2011.
This Friday, on 29 April 2011, Kate Middleton and Price William were pronounced husband and wife at a scintillating ceremony at Westminster Abbey, London. The global audience witnessed the royal wedding and rejoiced at this historic wedding. The focus of the marriage remained the transformation of Middleton from a "commoner" to marrying into "royalty". Though not titled as 'Princess Catherine' but Middleton has been bestowed with the titles 'Royal Highness', 'Duchess of Cambridge' and 'Countess of Strathearn'. Everything about Kate was perfect from head to toe. She wore a Cartier Scroll Tiara lent by Queen Elizabeth.
Kate seems to have handled all the media attention quite successfully. She has shown the beauty and grace befitting that of a Queen. Kate spent her childhood days in Chapel Row at Bucklebury which is a village near Newbury in Berkshire. She is the eldest of the three siblings. Her father worked as a pilot while her mother was an airline stewardess prior to setting up a business in mail orders. Catherine has been featured in several best-dressed lists and also selected as the "Most Promising Newcomer" in The Daily Telegraph. With about 1.5 million results on Google by her name, she has definitely gained a great deal of popularity, but she will certainly remain enigmatic for all.

I like going to bed before 10:00. Most of my family, especially my husband, calls that "early." I call it normal.
So I surprised everyone, including myself, when I bought tickets for a concert last Friday night that started at 10 PM. Before you get too excited…it wasn't a rock concert or hot new gig at a jazz bar, although maybe I will try that next time.
Bach kept me up last Friday night as in Johann Sebastian.
For the past thirty-three Springs in Evanston, Tom and I noticed the banner ads go up and come down for "Bach Week." A seasonal festival of classical music held in early May each year.
Bach fits our shared interests, we even included one of his pieces in our wedding, Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring. But we didn't have time for Bach week as we headed to our kid's schools most nights in May for the plethora of end-of-the-year activities, and besides, it was expensive.
After all these years of not RSVP-ing to all the around the town invites for the concerts, it was barely on our radar screen this year until something caught my eye in a brochure.
This year, a new concert debuted for Bach week. The word, "candlelight," was in the title and that intrigued me right away. The price was half the cost of the rest of the series so I was further enticed. Then I noticed the Bach Week Candlelight Concert started at 10 PM. Past my bedtime. Out of my routine. On the other side of my comfort zone.
Writing a blog about intentionality certainly causes me to think about my own…all the time.
Did I intentionally want to go to bed "on time" or hear Bach by candlelight on a lovely evening in early May?
I impulsively clicked "buy now"and texted Tom my intentions…to choose spontaneity over routine, new experience over same old-same old, missing sleep over missing magic.
It was a good choice.
Music exquisite, ambiance sublime, and, to add to the delight, champagne and fine chocolate freely offered to add to the wonder.
I almost proclaimed to Tom… "we will return every year to Bach week"... but perhaps another serendipitous opportunity awaits the first Friday in May next year.
I don't plan to sleep through it.
Where are your comfort zones nudging you?

The Advantage to going Second
by, 01/03/2012 at 10:17 AM (3567 Views)
I said this in a thread, and I want to just make it a blog because...well I just want it to get out there because I made the idea of it up on a whim and as I thought more about it I liked my own reasoning. This is an explaination on why going second isn't so bad, and is sometimes beneficial!
The advantage to going second is that you are able to respond to cards played and work strategies around the type of deck you are playing against. The first turn player, without a card effect, will not know what cards are in their opponent's hand or deck and is only aware of the active pokemon and any benched pokemon in play.It's easier to react as a 2nd turn player because hand sizes will be lower and you'll know more about the contents in your opponent's deck as they play them.
When going first, you're one turn ahead in everything except thinking strategies. You don't know what someone is playing until roughly their third card played in the game, so unless you can gain a significant advantage in damage, prizes, or field presence on the first turn, you are subjectable to tech cards lack of planning. As far as strategies, you are second to be able to play tech cards in your deck because you will not know what you are up against (unless your opponent tells you or floods the field with Pokemon during set-up).
Example: If you're playing against a Durant deck and they begin the game with a single Cobalion (which isn't a terrible start), the first turn player has no way of knowing it's a Durant deck. Playing a couple of dual balls, Pokemon Collector, or cards to draw could be detrimental to the game down the road, especially if Durant gets moving quickly.

I'm trying to make a report that shows Opportunity and Product information, but can be filtered by either Company or Contact. I'm of the understanding that I would need one report for the Company filtering, and one for the Contact, which is fine. I need to get to the product information for the pricing/cost information.
I've only started on the Company report, but I've run into problems. I can display the "company opportunity" values just fine, but once I try to include the "company opportunity product" values, things start to break. If I include the product values in line (not in a sub-report), I start to get extra rows/duplicates. I'm guessing this is because it is a company based report (so I can filter on it), and how ACT! is doing the table joining behind the scenes.
To get around this, I tried to add the product information into a sub-report. The problem I run into with this is that I get the dreaded (for a .NET developer, that is) "Object Reference not set to an Instance of an Object" error. I'm guessing that this error is popping up because not all companies have opportunities, which is a very possible (and probable) scenario for this report.
Is there any way of accomplishing this report in ACT! without any add-ons or other reporting tools? If so, can anyone provide some advice as to what I'm missing?
Thank you.
Possibly but I've never tried the specific report you're referring to. Your main problem is that Conpany, Oppertunity and Products are in separate tables. The ideal situation would be to have Company as the main report , Oppertunity as a sub-report and Product as a sub-report to Opportunity. Unfortunately the ACT! reports only allow one level of sub-reports.
There is a third party book with comprehensive training information on the ACT! reports, here is the link.
Thanks for the input. I was thinking that it may not be possible, but I felt the need to ask more knowledgable people than me. The overall design of the report isn't difficult, as you stated, but the limitations within ACT! are a bit of a hinderance.
Unless anyone else knows a way, I think I'm going to call this dead in the water for my project. ACT! can do a lot, but I don't think it can do what we want, how we want it in this regard.

Andrew Sprung thinks Richard Florida may have made a mistake:
Florida tells us that the study finds that GDP per capita is negatively associated with the transition to democracy. The study authors write that GDP growth is negatively associated with transition -- in either direction. That's a big difference. Contra Florida, richer countries are not less likely to transition (though they may not be more likely to). Growing countries are less likely to transition.

The population of Europe has become increasingly more ethnically diverse with an estimated 55% of residents in urban London originating from non-White British backgrounds. Studies investigating populations of various ethnic backgrounds have found the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or having a stroke as significantly different for people even living in the same area.
Ethnic minorities in Europe tend to be affected more by cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure, high sugar level (diabetes), and abnormal blood lipids (dyslipidaemia). Although the precise mechanisms for such differences is still unknown, it is, however, likely to be a combination of the complex interactions between the environment (i.e. diet, smoking) and genetics (i.e. factors that we are born with) that influence the pathophysiology. In our study, we focussed on T2DM (Type II diabetes mellitus) and dyslipidaemia in people from different ethnic backgrounds living in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
Genetic background studies highlight the disproportion in the incidence and prevalence of T2DM in migrant populations of Europe. This excessive risk cannot be fully explained by measures of body composition (i.e. body mass index, fat percentage and waist circumference) and thus suggest other factors, such as migration history or the environmental effects of the host country, are likely to be involved. For example, the higher prevalence of T2DM in some ethnic minorities residing in the Netherlands seem to be attributed to their socio-economic status but this finding is still debated. Compared to Europeans, individuals from South East Asian backgrounds (SA) are found to be approximately 3-5 times more likely to develop T2DM whereas Black African (BA) population demonstrated a 2-3fold increased risk of T2DM.
Similarly, there is an increased prevalence of dyslipidemia in ethnic minorities, although data investigating this disproportion is sparse. SA individuals exhibit higher levels of dyslipidemia and T2DM at comparatively lowers levels of BMI and body fat than Caucasian individuals, leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidities. Whereas the BA population, with its high incidence of hypertension and T2DM, depicts a favourable lipid profile which may be a result of genetic differences found in the enzyme hepatic lipase. Interestingly, even with this favourable antiatherogenic lipid profile, BA individuals have a disproportionately high risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) when compared to their white peers, a phenomenon well characterized as the Insulin Resistance-Lipid Paradox in People of African Ancestry.
With the increase of various ethnicities in Europe, it has become important to understand why migrant populations have a higher risk of developing CVD. Ethnic variations in cardio-metabolic risk factors partially contribute to this increased risk, but the precise underlying mechanisms still remain elusive. The rising epidemiological figures will inevitably impact the National Health Service as the disease profile of migrant populations differs to that of the residents. Therefore, further randomized control trials should be conducted in order to identify and create prevention and treatment options tailored specifically to these 'high risk groups'.

Key gives signals on coalition partners Dunne, Craig favoured; Peters bluffing
By Pattrick Smellie
Oct. 21 (BusinessDesk) – Prime Minister John Key gave crucial hints today to his thinking on coalition arrangements after the 2014 election, including no interest in discussing New Zealand First leader Winston Peters's "bottom line" requirements on nationalising KiwiSaver.
Speaking at his post-Cabinet press conference, Key signalled that United Future party leader and sole Member of Parliament, Peter Dunne, could return as a Minister outside Cabinet after being forced to resign in June when he refused to cooperate with an investigation into leaked government documents.
That would depend partly on the imminent report of Parliament's Privileges Committee, but a return to the ministry was a possibility in the current parliamentary term, Key said.
He also indicated he could work with the Conservative Party, led by fundamental Christian businessman Colin Craig.
"Might do. Might do," said Key in response to questions about whether he could work with Craig. Asked whether such a tie-up could alienate liberal National Party voters, Key said it was the nature of MMP politics that junior coalition partners "will have pluses and minuses."
"In the end, all I know is that MMP is a coalition-driven system."
Recent census results suggest a new electorate seat on Auckland's North Shore will be required – an area where Craig has shown some electoral popularity.
Key was dismissive of Peters's announcement at the New Zealand First party conference last weekend to make it a "bottom line" condition of the party's membership of a coalition that KiwiSaver funds be placed under government control and management.
"You guys have spent your careers trying to analyse what he says and you've got more sense out of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party. He talks in riddles, he doesn't stick to what he says, it's a waste of time having discussions that are about a bottom line.
"There are no bottom lines with Winston Peters. He will do a deal with who he feels like doing a deal with."
Peters claimed current KiwiSaver providers are making excessive fees for managing some $16 billion of New Zealanders' retirement savings and that a government provider would both charge lower fees and use the funds to "buy back New Zealand", including farmland sold to foreign investors and privatised state-owned enterprises.
Peters was proposing a "risky" strategy of "putting all your eggs in one basket" when the current system ensured competition among different investment services. Peters's suggestion the government-run fund should also carry a government guarantee was also "a massive problem".
"If it's capital protection, it's saying to that group there is only upside potential and no downside risk and as we know from financial markets, that's never a strategy that a smart government will underwrite because there are times when markets will go up and down."
He faced no questions on the government's other coalition partner, the Act Party, whose sole MP, John Banks, was committed for trial on electoral fraud charges last week, relating to contributions to his Auckland mayoral election campaign in 2010.

At the September meeting of the Web Design SIG, we started by reviewing the new lineup of PACS groups that are related to Web Design. We then talked about our plans for the Web Design SIG this season.
We took a look at the new website that was set up for the SIG. The site uses WordPress and the Weaver II theme. We demonstrated some changes made to the default theme by using Google fonts and by adding some CSS declarations. We also noted that the theme is responsive without losing information.
We discussed the SIG use of Mail Chimp to communicate with the members. There is a widget on the website for signing up to the mailing list.
We then noted a series of online classes being offered by Google on website accessibility. The classes are free, and the information is at Introduction to Web Accessibility. We will try to follow those sessions at future meetings.
We finished up by looking at a site called What Makes a Website Look Dated, and we will work this year to be sure we are not doing anything on that list.

Aztecs start to build their capital city, Tenochtitlan.
Montezuma II and his people were filled with a sense of foreboding. A series of evil omens had foretold of calamities to come. A fiery comet crossed the sky. The temple of Huitzilopochtli, the god of war, burst into flames. The Lake of Mexico boiled and rose.
Cortes expedition makes a show of force to intimidate Teudile and his men
Some of Cortes' men decide to steal a ship and return to Cuba. Cortes has them executed and sinks the ships to make it impossible to turn back.
50,000 Tlaxcalans fight the 400 Spaniards and are defeated by the superior Spanish weapons and horses. The Tlaxcalans provide Cortes with 10,000 warriors for his march
Cortes continues on to Cholula and massacres the local nobility, because he suspects them of planning an ambush.
The Spanish enter the city of Tenochtitlan (City of Dreams) to meet Montezuma II. Coincidentally, this day, 1 Wind, is Quetzalcoatl's day, attributed to the whirlwind, when robbers and wizards are supposed to do their worst, robbing and violating.
Hernán Cortés and La Malinche meet Moctezuma II in Tenochtitlan
The Aztecs attack the Spanish and imprison many of Cortes' soldiers.
The Aztecs attacked the Spanish and forced them into a desperate escape from Tenochtitlan. More than 600 Spanish conquistadors (some estimates ran to over 1,000) and thousands of Tlaxcalans died trying to run across a narrow bridge. Cortés retreated back to Tlaxcala, barely making it through an enormous Aztec army. The elemental horror of that night has never been forgotten. It is still called "the Night of Tears" (la Noche Triste).
Cortes attacks Tenochtitlan from three directions at once with 13 new ships. The lake surrounding the city turns red with blood.
15,000 Aztecs die in Cortes' final all-out attack on the city. The new Emperor Cuauhtemoc and his last few supporters are captured by the Spaniards

A new report accuses Mississippi's department of human services of failing to do its job of protecting children.
The cases involve kids placed in foster care who may be abused.
According to the recently released findings, DHS is not complying with guidelines to quickly respond to reports and problems of abuse in cases involving children in foster care.
A federally appointed court monitor released the findings. Their job is to oversee the guidelines laid out from a settlement reached in a class action lawsuit filed against DHS in 2004.
The New York-based group Children's Rights accused the state of knowing about problems in the system for over a decade, yet failing to protect abused and neglected children. According to the group, there is no set deadline for the state to comply with the terms of the settlement. We made several attempts to contact DHS to hear what they have to say. We haven't yet heard back.
