This Attic Apartment Boasts Two Bars and a Dome Roof
Eclectic styles in beautiful harmony
In this full-floor two-story apartment in Barcelona, you'll find lofty open rooms set with a modern classic look and a myriad of styles that indulge in the homeowners' personalities, offering a sophisticated masculine feel for the home office and a feminine chic in the private quarters. Not only do the architectural features look stunning with attention to stylish cornice and well planned spaces, there is a roof dome that creates a unique flow to both the roof and the home office. Stretched over 750m2, the apartment boasts two bar areas — or make that three if you're counting the breakfast bar!
Enter the living room, a formal room with a simple gray-white decor using pattern and texture in these hues to elevate the room. Looking perfectly regal with cabriole sofas and chandeliers, the room is a great place to welcome guests before heading to the dining room attached.
According to designers Egue y Seta, the design inspirations for the home were extensive and varied. "Classic luxury homes; imperial decor; colonial chic; urban Japanese; contemporary Mediterranean; Provençal Country… to name just a few. This home is like a compilation of different styles," explained founding director Felipe Araujo. One of the most interesting parts of the project was "understanding the clients' needs and very specific desires for each of the rooms. To have clients requesting such a wide repertoire of decor choices in a single home is not all that common. It was a challenge to make it all work together."
The dining table seats twelve, comfortably! The color palette lengthens through from the living room, making the transition seamless in style. You get a sense of French chic, accented with the style of furniture, silver candelabras and Tour Eiffel on the wall.
The kitchen features timber flooring, with a highlighted section in black and white tiles. What we love about this room is the overhead planters that add life and lift to the room. Plenty of storage in the kitchen is a must, and we come across one of the first bars of the home — the breakfast bar!
In the hallway, this hideaway nook boasts a wine cellar as a backdrop, accessible from the dining room. It's all a big upgrade from the original look and feel of the home. Although you could tell "the place was always meant to be impressive and luxurious," the early state before the project was completed was far from polished. The layout was very different, but by opening up the kitchen it's become more grand, more spacious and more livable. The terraces which had previously been abandoned and unfurnished, are now a huge bonus!
The master bedroom features an en suite bathroom, with a sauna tucked in for at home spa care! Classic subway tiles create a neutral space, and a nod to the plant section in the bathroom making full use of the bathroom skylight and creating a garden oasis.
We asked Egue y Seta about the way the home owners' personality shines through in the home. It's "everywhere," says Araujo. "We actually take pride in saying our projects reflect not necessarily the studio's style, or our own preferences but those very specific to each client. The "travel" theme of the library, the colonial style of the office bar, the pink princess atmosphere of the daughter's bedroom, the Provençal feel of the kitchen and the cinema motif of the game room, were all requested by the client."
Curious about the other rooms? Hold tight!
In the daughter's bedroom we're treated to a real princess castle. The pink pinstripe wallpaper is matched with pink tiles in the en suite bathroom. Yes, that is a slide from the top bunk!
The nursery next door is a more laid back room, featuring animals, but still sharing child-like whimsy and hints of demure pink.
Here's where the fun begins. This room is where the entertaining happens, a cocktail bar with a cozy space to hang out. The dark colors work well, paired with wood and leather for dusty tones and geometric shapes. It's a space connected to the home office, suitable for entertaining clients or relaxing with a bourbon after working.
What an unusual shaped room! This round room is actually complete with a dome, and the round shape gives the room a unique perspective. The home office is given a blue and white color palette, simple and calming.
On the terrace, you can see the dome in all its splendor. Previously this patio area had hardly been put to use, but now the chosen outdoor furniture make it a great spot to take those sundowners from bar to balcony.
In another part of the home is this travel inspired space. It's not only a TV room, but doubles as a game room, where billiards and arcade games mean fun time. It could be a strange mix but the transition from modern and classical to play time moves smoothly through the room.
This might actually be our favorite room of the house. Laid back and colorful, this living room space actually doubles as a gym, just take a peak behind the sliding doors!
In the attic room, the guest bedroom is a demure and relaxing blue. We love the patterns that offer boho-chic while set against tall windows like a Charles Rennie Mackintosh backdrop.
But just you wait, as we're getting to the bit you've been waiting for…
The rooftop bar offers the views you've been waiting for. Sun loungers, a pizza oven and that cocktail bar mean this is the perfect spot to unwind in the evening. Keep your eyes peeled for the hot tub!
The homeowners were more than pleased with their new home, feeling the different styles, tastes and personalities come together to make it a luxury family home with a heart. There is a mix of styles, yet none feel out of context through a tour of the home. The tricky bit is choosing which room is the best!

Please join me for a special event on Thursday evening at 7pm at the Tewksbury Public Library where I will be giving my Pollinator Garden program. This event is free and open to the general public. I hope to see you there!
I am currently booking programs for 2016-2017 and would be delighted to present to your club, library, school, and private or public event. See the Programs Page of my website and feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.
This past week I presented a screening and Q&A of Life Story of the Black Swallowtail Butterfly film and program to the Ipswich Town and Country Garden Club. Marion Frost, two time past President and six time Program Chair for the club had some very kind things to say about my program. Marion grew up in Gloucester!
Hi Kim,
How often does something you've looked forward to for a long time live up to your expectations? Not often. But last night at Ebsco your presentation, including your film, your comments and your Q&A were just about perfect in my book! I'll smile as I remember the evening.
I liked having the trailer for the monarch film first. You gave the group something to look forward to. Jesse Cook's music is an excellent choice, I think. I drum to his music often. I was pleased with the questions and with your answers. It's obvious you've done a lot of research. The way you answered questions made the group comfortable. Very nice! And the film. What can I say. I'd seen clips, but seeing the whole thing was something I won't forget. I especially liked your reference to other butterflies and your comparison of the swallowtail with the monarch. Liv's voice was just right for the commentary!
I know from experience that the presenter is the harshest critic of the presentation. I hope you were feeling pleased with your work last night. I'd be happy to repeat the whole evening!
I'm wishing you well with the editing.
All the best to you,
The short film BomBom Butterflies, winner of the Rockport Film Festival's People's Choice Award, gives a glimpse of the full length documentary Life Story of the Black Swallowtail Butterfly.

20. -30. June 2016, Vienna, Austria
In cooperation with Galerie Michaela Stock
with BBB Johannes Deimling and guest teacher Veronika Merklein
"An Icon is a usually pictorial representation for an image. This can be on the one hand an object of uncritical devotion like an idol, traditional belief or ideal or on the other an emblem or symbol."
A conceptual framework is constructed, based in critical theory from arts disciplines, notably from the thought of Barthes , Panofsky and Peirce . As Barthes himself points out, the photograph, for instant is a message without a code. It is a sign because it looks like that which it depicts: Barthes calls it an "analogon". Regarding to Peirce "there are three kinds of signs. Firstly, there are likenesses, or icons; which serve to convey ideas of the things they represent simply by imitating them". In the semiotic theories of Peirce the icon signifies by resemblance. Panofsky understood iconology to be more a search for symptoms and claimed "symbolical" values might, in fact, radically differ from the conscious intention of the artist.
Regarding to them the icon is a primary denotation or representation. Iconography is a secondary level of coded meaning. Iconology is an interpretation that calls on the unconscious. The icon can be a portrait and resembles or imitates its object. The icon has a certain character or aspect, one which the object also has or is supposed to have and which lets the icon be interpreted as a sign or an symbolical value even if the object does not exist.
The American philosopher Kendall Walton once distinguished between two aspects of photographic images: They are both photos and pictures. It is a matter of the dual relationship between objects and photographs: the photographic relationship is the index and the illustrative relationship is the icon. Often these two relationships coincide with each other. Walton claims that photographs are transparent, so they allow us to see their subjects only indirectly.

Antiguan Government hopeful Scotia will sell bank to the State
The Antigua and Barbudan Government is awaiting an agreement from Scotiabank Canada on the sale of its bank there to them.
This, after Republic Financial Holdings ended its bid to purchase the bank.
In a post-Cabinet note, the Government said RFH indicated via a letter to Prime Minister Gaston Browne, received on August 8, that it would not wish to purchase Scotiabank Antigua assets.
The Government said Browne wrote immediately to both RFH and to Scotiabank Canada, indicating that Antigua would purchase the Branch for the same amount that RFH negotiated to pay.
"Scotiabank wrote to the Prime Minister last week to indicate that it would either sell to RFH or close its branch. The Cabinet agreed to stand firm on the offer to purchase, and awaits the next step by Scotiabank Canada," the Cabinet note said.
"The Cabinet is persuaded that Scotiabank will eventually yield to the offer and that the benefits that will flow to Antigua and Barbuda as a result of the sale to a local consortium will be enormous - immediately and in the future."
The Government notes that another Canadian bank is reportedly selling its assets to local banks in the Caribbean jurisdictions in which it operates.

8 bad gym habits we're all guilty of
Because we're all lazy, in a rush, selfish, silly… Some of those may ring a bell. It's ok to admit it fitties, nobody's perfect! 😉
1. Skipping warmup, and/or stretching
Lifting heavy or making your heart pump is great but guess what will happen when you lose all mobility or get injured? That's right, no more lifting.
2. Doing the same exercise/routine repeatedly because you like it/you wanna get good at it
You will become better at it, no doubt, because your body will adapt. That's called exercise adaptation. But to get fit(ter) you need to go for new stuff all the time and therefore becoming comfortable being uncomfortable in new challenges (new exercises, routines, weights…). Not to mention how boring this might get!
3. Asking other people to take pictures of you, training
You want to update your Instagram, we get it. But hey, Christmas is coming! Time to get yourself a mobile tripod and a Bluetooth wireless remote (or just learn how to use the camera timer).
4. Taking aaaaaalllll your time in the shower
Is it really the best time and place to shave, scrub, get a hair mask? Just asking.
5. Taking more towels than you actually need
Do we really need to tell you about the environment again?
6. Having the feeling you deserve more food because you just trained
You know that adage about abs being made in the kitchen right? Hint: it doesn't mean you must do crunches on your kitchen's floor…
7. Not going if you don't have time for a "proper" (long) session
35 minutes, if you know what to do and you challenge yourself properly are totally enough… and much better than nothing "because you didn't have enough time".
8. Being a prisoner of your own gym habits
You're used to training with your music, sipping on your BCAA… Forget your water bottle or your earphones and game over. A little bit of work on those adaptation skills maybe?…
Do you have other bad gym habits?…

York VA Medical Center in Murfreesboro, Tenn. At Olin E. Teague VA Medical Center in Temple, Tex., Denise Landon is a MICU Clinical Nurse and Dana Henry is an ICU Clinical Nurse. Master the seven goals for hospitals, including the new clinical alarm safety objective. The authors and planners have disclosed no potential conflicts of interest, financial or otherwise. Nursing Made Incredibly Easy!: March/April 2014 - Volume 12 - Issue 2 - p 36-43 doi: 10.1097/01.NME.0000442903.88908.e1 Free Take the CE Test Metrics FigureEach year thousands of patients lose their lives as a direct result of preventable medical events, such as a hospital-associated infections (HAIs), surgical mistakes, and sentinel events that occur while patient alarms are silenced. Mortality is four times higher in hospitalized patients who acquire an HAI, and recent research studies have found that up to 25.8% of all ICU patients will develop an HAI. This dramatically increases healthcare costs because length of stay increases from an average of 8.1 days to 15.8 days for a patient with an HAI. We must remain vigilant in eradicating all preventable occurrences that negatively impact our patients and work to improve patient safety and outcomes. Goal development The Joint Commission developed the first set of National Patient Safety Goals (NPSGs) in 2002, with implementation in January 2003. Along with the goal of eliminating wrong patient, wrong site, wrong procedure surgery, the first set of NPSGs included improving: the accuracy of patient identification communication between caregivers the safety of infusion pumps the safety of high-alert medications the effectiveness of clinical alarm systems. Several of the original NPSGs continue to be utilized because they address core problems that we're actively trying to eliminate. The common theme is to reduce the risk of injury to the patient and improve clinical outcomes. Matching goals to facilities The Joint Commission has specific goals for the following healthcare facilities: ambulatory care behavioral care hospitals critical access hospitals home care lab services nursing care long-term care office-based surgery. Each type of healthcare facility has a unique combination of NPSGs; however, the key is to note that these goals are aimed at preventable errors—mistakes that we have the ability to change. 2014 hospital NPSGs The 2014 NPSGs for hospitals include: improve the accuracy of patient identification improve the effectiveness of communication among caregivers improve the safety of using medications reduce the harm associated with clinical alarm systems reduce the risk of HAIs identify safety risks inherent in the hospital's patient population prevent wrong site, wrong procedure. Let's take a closer look. The seven golden goals Goal 1: Improve the accuracy of patient identification. Improving patient identification is vital to overall patient safety. Mistakes in patient identification can lead to errors in medication administration, failure to treat a serious illness or disease, medical treatment for erroneous diagnostic lab results, incompatible blood transfusion reactions, infants being discharged to the wrong families, and procedures being performed on the wrong patient. To minimize the continued prevalence of patient misidentification, consider these risk reduction strategies: Use at least two patient identifiers when admitting, transferring, or discharging a patient; administering medications; collecting blood or fluid samples; and before performing procedures. For example, use the patient's name, date of birth, medical record number, or photograph. Don't utilize a room number as a patient identifier. All lab specimens should be labeled in the presence of the patient to minimize the risk of mislabeling a specimen with the wrong patient's information. Follow your facility's protocols for signing off on labs, labeling lab specimens, and identifying special labs such as type and screen for transfusions. Utilize new technology such as a USB palm scanner to verify the identity of patients. This device scans the patterns of veins located in the palm of the patient's hand to authenticate his or her identity. A palm scanner is an accurate way to verify a patient's identity because each individual's veins are as unique as a fingerprint. The scanner matches each palm signature with the electronic health record (EHR). One of the benefits of using a palm scanner is that the patient doesn't have to place his or her hand in contact with the scanning device. Palm scanners are also beneficial for quickly identifying patients who are incapacitated, comatose, or unable to communicate their identity to healthcare personnel. Many researchers are predicting that computer passwords may become unnecessary in the near future as more hospitals are adding palm scanners to identify employees, as well as patients. Another benefit of this new technology is that hospitals are utilizing palm scanners to prevent insurance fraud and reduce both clerical and medical mistakes. Goal 2: Improve the effectiveness of communication among caregivers. In any given healthcare organization, there are thousands of daily interactions between healthcare workers, patients, and the community. The quality of these interactions is a key component of error prevention, patient comprehension and adherence, and outcomes control. Consider these tips to maximize communication: Utilize a standardized protocol for processing physician telephone orders, including clarifying the order by reading it back to the ordering healthcare team member in its entirety. Don't use telephone orders except in cases of emergency. Standardize processes for "read back" of critical and/or abnormal diagnostic results. Participate in rounding. Each healthcare team member needs to understand the patient problem list, reason for admission, discharge barriers, education needs, and progress toward meeting discharge goals. Direct communication during rounds promotes one-to-one interaction between caregivers, patients, and families. Participate in bedside reporting to decrease the risk of miscommunication or failing to communicate vital and pertinent information between oncoming and offgoing nurses. Healthcare team members who write orders should utilize a computerized provider order entry (CPOE) system if possible. Utilize the EHR to reduce the incidence of errors in data dissemination. Goal 3: Improve the safety of using medications. Errors in medication administration remain prevalent in facilities nationwide. These errors are difficult to track due to reporting failures and data collection variations. The results are often reflective of systems and not national trends. These errors include poor medication reconciliation practices; failure to provide proper patient identification; wrong dose, wrong drug errors; and look-alike, sound-alike errors. Consider the following evidence-based interventions to reduce the incidence of medication errors and subsequent sentinel events or near misses: Require verification of designated high-risk medications, such as insulin, heparin, blood products, total parenteral nutrition, and I.V. vasopressors, by two licensed nurses. Use two patient identifiers to validate the correct patient identity before administration of any medication. Perform medication reconciliation verifying the patient's medications and dosages to ensure that his or her current medication regimen is correct. Utilize electronic medication dispensing units to track medication dosages and frequency. Educate all healthcare team members about the danger of common trends that can increase the likelihood of medication errors, such as using unapproved abbreviations for medication names, dosages, routes, or frequency. Use "tall man" lettering for potential look-alike, sound-alike medications. If you're required to mix a medication, label the medication or solution as soon as it's prepared, including the medication name, strength, quantity, diluent, volume, and expiration date. When administering medications to pediatric patients, prefilled syringe products should be used only if specifically designed for children. When administering medications to a patient in a shared room, review the medication administration record (MAR) before administration. In a recent study evaluating patients who shared a hospital room, failure to utilize the MAR at the bedside contributed to 7.3% of medication errors. Patients in shared hospital rooms were 12.2% more likely to experience a medication error during their hospital stay. FigureGoal 6: Reduce the harm associated with clinical alarm systems. Monitoring clinical alarms is important because of the high risk of patient injury if they're silenced, turned off, or ignored. All staff members should receive routine education on how to safely utilize the clinical alarms within their work area. All alarms should be checked at the beginning of each shift and periodically in between to ensure that they remain functional and the volume is set at a level loud enough to be heard by healthcare team members. Clinical alarms should never be silenced unless the patient is actively dying, has a completed do-not-resuscitate order, and end-of-life comfort care is the only prescribed treatment. According to The Joint Commission, 80 patients died and 13 were severely injured in U.S. hospitals between January 2009 and June 2012 as a result of alarm-related problems, including alarms being set improperly, silenced, or inaudible. Consider these strategies to increase clinical alarm safety: Closely monitor patients in environments where healthcare teams may be desensitized to alarms because of their frequency linked to nonemergent conditions such as excessive patient movement or patient pulling of ECG leads. Check all alarms frequently during your shift to ensure that they remain on, the alarm parameters are correct, and the volume is loud enough to get the attention of all staff members. When clinical alarms are silenced or the parameters are adjusted to prevent activation, it can result in a potentially life-threatening event being ignored and subsequent patient injury or death. Common patient alarms that should be checked frequently include: cardiac alarms, such as ECG, pulmonary artery catheter, heart rate, and BP chair alarms bed alarms door alarms oxygen sensor alarms intracranial pressure alarms bispectral index monitor alarms intra-aortic balloon pump alarms core body temperature alarms. Goal 7: Reduce the risk of HAIs. Despite national attention, the incidence of HAIs remains high. According to the CDC, 1 out of 20 hospitalized patients will contract an HAI. The cost to U.S. hospitals is up to $33.8 billion annually. These financial costs are tremendous but pale in comparison to the cost in patient safety. To add to this crisis, according to 2013 research, at least 2 million people will be infected with a drug-resistant bacterial infection and 23,000 of those patients will die. Consider these common interventions to minimize or alleviate the risk of infection: Use established guidelines to prevent infection after surgery by administering prophylactic broad-spectrum antibiotics before surgical procedures. Receive continuing education on sepsis, including sepsis recognition and the benefits of early goal-directed therapy and treatment protocols. Use proven guidelines to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) by improving indwelling catheter care and decreasing catheter use. It has been estimated that as many as 65% to 70% of CAUTIs may be preventable if evidence-based prevention strategies are applied. To prevent central line-associated bloodstream infections, use careful site selection, ensure strict sterility is maintained during the insertion procedure, perform frequent hand hygiene, screen the patient to assess his or her true need for central line placement and use a less invasive access method if possible, identify the maximum length of time that the catheter can be left in place, and remove the central line as soon as indicated. Ensure that evidence-based guidelines or best practices are utilized to reduce the risk of HAIs, such as hand washing, maintaining sterility during dressing changes over invasive lines, and cleansing the oral cavity with chlorhexidine frequently for ventilated patients to reduce the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Monitor trends in HAIs. If you note a trend in the same type of infection or culture colonization results, notify infection control personnel so that they can conduct a root cause analysis review to track the source of the transmission. Many healthcare facilities post their infection rate statistics. Monitor hand-washing compliance and cleansing of devices routinely used to assess patients such as stethoscopes. All healthcare workers should be regularly educated about the importance of incorporating the CDC hand hygiene guidelines into their daily practice. Goal 15: Identify safety risks inherent in the hospital's patient population. According to The Joint Commission, patient suicide while in a staffed, around-the-clock care setting is a frequently reported type of sentinel event. It's imperative that healthcare teams identify individuals at risk for suicide while under the care of or following discharge from a healthcare facility. Identifying these patients may require the skills of other healthcare team members, such as psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers.Figure: The newest hospital NPSG is improving clinical alarm safety.Consider these common interventions that you can perform to assist in meeting this goal: Ensure that patients who verbalize feelings about or intentions of harming themselves receive an immediate psychiatric evaluation so that the healthcare team can formulate an appropriate care plan. Conduct a suicide risk assessment that identifies specific patient characteristics and environmental features or objects that may increase or decrease the risk of suicide. Ensure that the patient's immediate safety needs are addressed and work with other healthcare team members to transition the patient to the most appropriate unit, facility, or setting for treatment. Ensure that you maintain the patient's privacy and only convey information to family and friends according to your healthcare facility's policy. Know how to recognize key indicators that put a patient at risk for suicidal behavior, even in the absence of expressed suicidal ideation. For patients who exhibit risk indicators, conduct and document an assessment of suicidal ideation and plan. Each healthcare organization should have clear policies in place regarding the systematic documentation of suicide risk assessments and interventions that should be completed to optimize patient safety. Universal protocol: Prevent wrong site, wrong procedure. The three common elements of the universal protocol for wrong surgery are: completing a thorough preoperative verification process verifying and marking the operative site with the patient, surgeon, and healthcare team taking a formal time out before a procedure to verify that the correct procedure is being performed on the correct site and the correct patient. The universal protocol should be used in ambulatory care centers, hospitals, critical access hospitals, and office-based settings. When healthcare teams implement and adhere to the protocol, wrong surgery errors that can be attributed to interruptions and distractions can be eliminated. Consider these Joint Commission recommendations: Ensure that the correct surgery is performed on the correct patient and at the correct physical location on the patient's body. Mark the correct place on the patient's body where the surgery is to be done. Pause before the surgery to ensure that a mistake isn't being made. Use time-out practices for all procedures that require mandatory participation. Between the goal posts! These goals have been identified by The Joint Commission as the most prevalent issues that can impact patient safety in hospitals. When healthcare teams are dedicated to improving the efficiency of clinical practice, utilizing evidence-based interventions, optimizing system delivery processes, and effectively communicating, they can improve the safety of all patients within their healthcare organization.

Last week SIMGE caught up with Dromedary Records founder Al Crisafulli to discus his independent distribution label located in the backwoods of New Jersey, which, for the past two decades, has provided the vinyl treatment to countless releases by a lauded roster of bands and musicians.
To celebrate the 20-year anniversary, Crisuafulli and Dromedary Records will take to Asbury Lanes this Friday (October 18th) and Saturday (October 19th) for its annual Camelfest showcases and fundraiser in support of Roots & Wings, a Denville, NJ-based operation that provides young adults who age out of the Garden State's foster care system with safe housing, educational support, counseling, and life skills in order to empower them toward self-sufficiency.
Friday's lineup features The Everymen, Cinema Cinema, The Coffin Daggers, and Wax Darts, while Saturday will see the likes of Stuyvesant, Overlake, The Brixton Riot, and The Anderson Council share the stage. As well as the two-night event, Dromedary Records is releasing commemorative 16-track collection titled From '93 Til Infinity, which SIMGE is happy to unveil below.
"I don't know if its because the music was that great or because we were just so in tune with what was going on when we started the label," said Crisafulli, "but 1993 always seemed like a watershed year for indie rock to me. It was a peak in an unbelievably creative period for independent musicians and labels, and there were so many bands and labels from that period that inspired us to get started and keep going, despite a lot of seemingly insurmountable challenges. When I started thinking about the best way to celebrate 20 years of indie music, paying tribute to that time seemed like an appropriate way to do it.
"Obviously," he continued, "the 16 songs on the album are the most obvious tribute, but there's a lot more depth to it than that. There are a lot of more subtle tributes on the record as well, in the artwork, song choices, and liner notes – sort of a quiet way of saying thank you to friends, fans, bands and labels that we've gotten to know over the years. There's not a lot of money in running a small indie label, especially now – but I can't imagine I will ever stop doing it, because of the great friends we've made over the years, and all the great experiences we've had. This record is a way of acknowledging that."
The Dromedary Records release is composed of previously unreleased tracks and covers by a multitude of label-mates…and Crisafulli couldn't be more excited to unleash it.
"The album features a mixture of old friends and new. Bands like Jean Homme & the Broken Telomeres (which features members of Jenifer Convertible, an old East Village noise pop band), Guy Capecelatro III and Dots Will Echo are people we've known for decades, while Overlake and Cinema Cinema are bands we're just beginning to work with. There are some old musical heroes of ours on there too in Dan Smith of d.smithsucks who was the bass player in Shirk Circus, as well as John Steele of The 65's who was in Electric Frankenstein, and Ben Deily of Varsity Drag who was a founding member of The Lemonheads. And of course the compilation wouldn't be complete without Stuyvesant who is probably our "flagship" band. Ralph Malanga of Stuyvesant has been my favorite songwriter since I was putting his records out in the '90s with his former band, Footstone."
Alongside From '93 Til Infinity, Dromedary Records will be putting out a second compilation called "PAID: Thanks For Shopping," which will be a free, download-only collection that traces the history of the label from the first song ever released on the imprint back in 1993 to the most recent pressing.
"While "From '93 'Til Infinity" serves as a thank you and a tribute to our friends and influences, "PAID" is a companion to it, more of a musical timeline from our beginning til now."
Stream From '93 Til Infinity below and be sure to come out this weekend for Camelfest 2013 at Asbury Lanes.

There's a touch of magic and intrigue at this rustic 'Ghost Canyon' cabin. Simplistic but exclusive as it hides in a secluded valley, where a rusty bullet-ridden Hudson greets you at the entrance road, a relic from a gunfight between diamond smugglers and police. Their ghosts are said to roam the valley in search of their lost diamonds. Further along the trail, a series of stone ramparts are visible from WWI days (1914-18) from when the German forces built fortifications here in the Aus hills to make a stand against the South African Union soldiers.
The Geisterschlucht Cabin consists of two family rooms sharing a bathroom, kitchen and lounge area. Solar panels that charge batteries provide 220 volt light and outlets to charge devices but please note no hair dryers and electric kettles can be used. The two rooms each have two ¾ beds and one bunk bed each, sleeping a total of 4 persons per room with bedding provided. The bathroom has two organic toilets and two showers. The open plan kitchen and lounge area is equipped with a fridge/gas burner and an inside braai area with cutlery, crockery, pots and pans provided. There is also an outside braai area to enjoy pleasant evenings around the fire.
Guests are more than welcome at the Inn's restaurant for breakfast or dinner (subject to availability, please enquire upon arrival). A better option are the barbecue packs which can be ordered at the reception (Desert Horse Inn, 6 km). Two hiking trails run through the picturesque valley and the habitat of the Wild Horses is just 20 km away.
As long as Namibia's borders are shut for foreign travelers, Klein-Aus Vista would like to encourage our fellow Namibians to visit Namibia's beautiful south! Klein-Aus Vista offers self-catering options at Desert Horse Campsite, Geisterschlucht Cabin, Eagle's Nest Chalets as well as at Desert Horse Inn.

Greek breakfast from Thrace
At the eastern end of mainland Greece, Thrace invites the visitor to walk through a special, almost mystical atmosphere. From the Forest of Dadia to Evros, to the emerald waters of Samothraki and from the vast vineyards to the Alexandroupolis lighthouse, this side of Greece has to tell its own history. 14,157 square kilometers of fertile land producing cotton, wheat, sunflowers, sugar cane, cherries and kiwi give away its peculiarity and its cultural origins.
Wild beauty, genuine people and an amalgam of influences and traditions expressed amongst others with the local cuisine. A great part of Thrace's history and folk culture is solid in its cuisine. Its unique position, with Bulgaria and Turkey borders, and the Aegean Sea to rain its south, has made it an inevitable crossroad of tastes and habits. Here Europe is in harmony with Asia, creating a very special culinary heritage that the visitor can only enjoy. Local products dictate the protagonists at the Thracian table, but the natural richness of the region guarantees a wide variety of gastronomic proposals with a very special taste.
A classic Thracian breakfast includes necessarily sour trachana with vegetables and spices. Kayanas with Soufflian sausages replaces, the scrambled eggs , while the cheese pies such as Milina with yoghurt, fresh butter and thyme Evros or bougatsa are also missing.
Sweet tastes also have a special place at breakfast, such as Saragli Komotini, Kariokes of Xanthi, Seker pare of Orestiada.
We therefore welcome you and invite you to learn and enjoy our Greek breakfast. Discover through this the diversity of every corner of our country.

Oh yum, tonight's dinner was delicious!
We had Mediterranean steak, with fried eggplant and bruschetta. Here's how I made it.
Steak Marinade:
4 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 T Rosemary
2 T Thyme
2 T chopped garlic
2 T Balsamic Vinegar (here's my absolute favorite kind, we get it at TJMAXX!)
1.5 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp ground pepper
I dumped it all into a freezer zip loc baggie with the flank steak. Then I stuck it in the freezer until I was ready for it. A week later I stuck it in the fridge and the day after that was ready to use it.
Make sure you set your baggie out on the counter about an hour before you're ready to cook the steak. Then get to grilling! We live in an apartment, so have a George Foreman grill. We just heated it up, cooked the steak for 4 minutes, flipped it and then another 4 minutes. (I like to flip it, I don't know why).
I've always heard to slice flank steak against the grain, and never really knew what that meant, so headed to the internet for help. This video makes it easy to see.
Fried Eggplant:
1 Eggplant (peeled and sliced into coins)
1 cup Panko bread crumbs
3 T Italian Seasoning
1 egg (whisked)
1/2 cup flour
EV Olive Oil
salt and pepper
You want three different bowls to dip in this order- 1. Flour with salt and pepper 2. Egg 3. Panko with Italian seasoning
After dipping the eggplant into each bowl, place into a heated pan with a few Tablespoons of EVOO. I fried about 6 at a time on medium, flipping them with tongs when they were golden. After they're golden on both sides, place onto a couple paper towels while you fry some more. After some of the oil is absorbed, transfer them to a cookie sheet. Once they're all on the cookie sheet, transfer to the oven at 375 for a few minutes. You may want to salt them slightly after.
1 Tomato
2 T Balsamic Vinegar
6 leaves fresh Basil
1 tsp Garlic Salt
salt and pepper
2 T Cream Cheese
1/4 c Feta crumbled
Chop the tomato and basil then dump in a small bowl. Mix with the garlic salt, vinegar and salt and pepper.
In another bowl mix the cream cheese, feta and lemon juice.
Slice your bread, I used no knead bread that I had left over from Eric's b-day, just cut the slices into thirds. French bread of course works best. Using a brush or your fingers spread one side of each slice with olive oil. Stick in the over (oil side up) for about 5 minutes on 375. Take it out, spread with cheese mix, top with tomato mix, voila!

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself, my name is Courtney and I have been in this hobby for 2+ years and my fiance has been in the hobby for over 7 years. We have a 265 gallon mixed reef that is about 1 year old. It started with the contents of a 75 gallon and we have been slowly trying to fill in all the extra space. It is amazing how a coral that can look like a huge colony in a 75 can look like a frag in a 265! The tank was started with overdriven T-5 bulbs and a few months ago we converted one side to LEDs so we could compare the T-5s and the LEDs. We just finished converting the rest of the fixture and we are very excited about the LEDs.
Here is a little background information on our system. The display is a 265 gallon glass tank (7' x 2' x 31") and the sump is a 30 gallon glass tank. We run 2 MP40 vortechs on reef crest 100% as well as the return pump for flow. Lighting is 72 three watt LEDs, 36 Cree Royal Blues and 36 Rebel Luxeon Whites. The Blues have 40 degree optics and the Whites have 60 degree optics. They are driven by 6 dimmable Meanwell drivers and we have a potentiometer for each color to control them. We run a protein skimmer and filter sock for filtration and I do a 10 gallon daily water change with Tropic Marin Pro Reef Salt. We do not use any reactors of any kind, we rely on the water changes and a very small amount of Tropic Marin Bio-Calcium and Tropic Marin Bio-Magnesium daily to maintain our parameters. That about sums up the equipment side of our system, we try to keep things simple and effective and have found these methods give excellent results.
The livestock in the tank is still a work in progress. Some of the fish we currently have are a Powder Blue Tang, Yellow Tang, Female Crosshatch Trigger, Copper banded Butterfly, Filefish, a mated pair of Yellow Assessors, a mated pair of Maroon Gold Stripe Clownfish and several others. We still have quite a fish wish list for the tank that we are slowly working on. Corals are mostly SPS and just to name a few: ORA Joe the Coral, ORA Frogskin, Nathan's Green Milliepora, Idaho Grape Monticap, Orange Setosa, Orange Digitata, ORA Green Digitata and many other SPS frags. The LPS we have are mostly different acan lords with a few chalices as well as a basketball size colony of Purple Tip Frogspawn. The only soft corals we have are zoanthids and palythoas some of which include Red People Eaters, Candy Apple Reds and Armor of Gods to name a few.
Some daily maintenance that I do on the tank includes the 10 gallon water change, dosing the Tropic Marin Bio-Calcium and Bio-Magnesium and feeding a variety of frozen foods to the fish and corals. The fish also receive dry pellets in an auto feeder twice a day. I change the filter sock every other day and clean the skimmer collection cup and test the water parameters once a week and clean the glass as needed.
I think that about sums up everything with the tank. We try to keep everything as simple as possible and have definitely seen some amazing growth. I am very excited to see in a year or so how much more mature it will look as everything grows and fills in more.
Here are a few pictures, the full tank shot is from May 2010 and many of the coral shots are from August 2010. These pictures are all with full T-5s on the tank. I will be posting more recent pictures soon so that everyone can see how it looks with the LEDs.

Marko Grujic has his head on his shoulders, despite being a full international aged 20 and at one of the biggest clubs on the planet.
Due to the likes of Jordan Henderson, Adam Lallana and Gini Wijnaldum being used centrally, he hasn't had much of a look in so far, coming off the bench just the once against Burnley in our miserable Premier League defeat to Turf Moor – the only negative result from the season.
Many fans thought he'd play an active role from the beginning of this term due to his excellent performances in the summer friendlies, but the player himself is prepared to wait for an opportunity.
Rodgers: I tried to sign world-class Spanish midfielder for Liverpool
"Red Star is a very, very big club, like Liverpool…but both clubs are like family, and that's why I chose to join Liverpool," Grujic told the official website.
"I think there is the same harmony between club and fans and already everywhere that I've been around the city I just feel how Liverpool is such a big club.
"All around the world people support Liverpool, that really struck me on the summer tour, and there is incredible harmony between fans and players.
"It was hard in pre-season, especially for me because I have come from Serbia and our work here is at a higher level.
"The running and exercises are harder and I'm still learning, but I'm sure I will adapt. I'm proud that I can work with the staff here and it will be OK.
"For the first season I just want to learn from these guys. I have the big pleasure of playing with some of the best footballers in the world. I want to get some minutes and games to try and improve myself for the future. I think next season will be the one where I show what I can do."
Check out MBNA credit cards, friends of EOTK
We're not sure when we'll get to see the Serbian start for the first time, but reckon he might get the nod away to Derby in the League Cup next week. Against Chelsea on Friday, Jurgen Klopp's team practically picks itself bar one position which Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge are fighting for.
In the cup though our manager might shuffle his pack for the first time, with the likes of Divock Origi, Danny Ings, Alberto Moreno and Loris Karius among those who'll be hoping for the nod.

Honestly, I saw the differences from the book and somethings (who knows about the blood over the doors) seemed like unnecessary changes but honestly I don't care that much because it was such a great journey.
As a huge fan of the books, I know what is happening as I watch and even what is coming next. Before watching the show I kept thinking that no matter what we fans of the book see in the show, we will always know what is coming. There is no surprise for us. And yet the entire time I watched the free preview of Sassenach (episode one) I wondered what was coming next.
Honestly, from what I saw in this first episode both the acting and the story telling seem wonderful to me. I may be a little biased but I did fear what my favorite book would look like on screen.
Tobias Menzies was great and so believable as both Frank and Black Jack Randall that I found myself mesmerized by him. He's going to be one of the more fantastic aspects of the show but then I knew he was a great actor.
The other character and actor I loved was Graham McTavish as Dougal MacKenzie. I loved the moments he backs up Claire's commanding nurse ways and when he's a nonsense leader to the band of highlanders he's traveling with. You can just see in his face that he's puzzled by Claire and trying to figure out who and what she is.
I'd listened to a podcast that talked about Caitrionia Balfe's performance as though they weren't sure about her ability to carry it off but I'm convinced she can. She seems to switch gears much like Claire without issue. There were a couple moments I wasn't entirely sure about specifically Jamie finding her again after the fight with the English but knowing the story these moments are bound to happen.
Sam Heughan did a wonderful job being Jamie. When Claire sets his arm, his reaction just seems so real. And the first time he calls her Sassenach made me more happy than swoonish... is that even a word? Oh well. I loved the show and I can't wait the next two weeks to watch the second episode.
Try it.

Hi Been lurking for a while and have found the site very, very useful. Rare to find an internet forum where the users aren't more concerned with flaming than having constructive dialogue. Congrats! Anyway, am looking for a career change. 29, single and living in Surrey near Gatwick. Which is nice. Currently employed (> 5yrs) in a small (12 people) manufacturing and service company. Commercial Manager, Project Manager or that SOB depending on the day of the week. Essentially #2 to the MD. Responsible for running the production facility, purchasing, design work, r&d, network administrator, tea and coffee..... Nicelyish paid, but low on the satisfaction Im looking for. Have been away from any formal education since leaving school with 3 A-levels. Everything I know since then is life experience and stuff I've picked up / self taught along the way. IT experience is self taught, nothing formal. I've a good 'business' grounding and I'm now looking for something that can take me forwards and offer new opportunities. I've long been interested in computers, indeed probably a lost opportunity. Everyone always used to say to me when I was a kid that I'd end up in computers and make loads of money. Trouble was at 15 I got a weekend job and just continued in that industry down the road to the job I'm at now .. I've some experience in that I use a computer all day, I've built a wi-fi set-up at home (so I could check email on my Clie rather than switching the computer on), and most important also built and hard/software 'support' our office wired network and broadband connection. That is to say that they shout for me when something goes wrong and I have to figure it out.... ! Weve got 10 pcs hooked up for file/printer sharing and web access. We also work with Remote Desktop on-line through a 2003 Server at our parent company in the US. I administer our UK network as an extra job task, keep it updated etc. By no means any kind of expert, but I enjoy what I do in that area.... I've looked at the options and have MCSE Security as a target, but I'm undecided where to start. I've been away from any kind of formal study for so long I'm concerned that I won't be able to get into it. Ive looked at the full course distance learners and don't want to shell out the £5k and find out I can't get into the studying per se. So, I'm looking for a useful course that I can sign up to make sure I can get into it. I'm quite sure that the self study route will be the best one in the end. It seems like all the distance learning courses are self study anyway; they just send you the books etc! So recommendations on a course to start off with that will be of use? I'd plotted the suggested route MCDST, MCSA, MCSE so something to try before that? The ECDL or IC3 seem a bit simple from what Ive seen. I've been recommended the Open University T175 Networked Living course. An OU course might prove I can learn or not! Any other suggestions?? Anyway, thanks for your time, your help and the chance to chat! Cheers!

Zucchini as an oatmeal substitute? Nah. That was my thinking, anyway, when I first heard of it. Sure, I'd embraced organ meats, sardines, previously unknown veggies like celeriac and parsnips…but zucchini for breakfast? No thank you!
But – and I love this – we are not only allowed to change, it is actually a beautiful thing, and part of life's natural cycle. And so, today, I have eaten, and greatly enjoyed, zucchini as an oatmeal sub!
Zucchini, it turns out, is a great vehicle for oatmeal when used in conjunction with other ingredients to thicken and bind. Here, that means shredded coconut, apple sauce and a dash of date syrup (for added sweetness) and gelatin.
Warm, slightly sweet, thick and creamy…mmm. Personally, no matter the weather, I enjoy warm foods. Always have. You're much more likely to find me with a hot cup of tea in hand than iced java. And hot "noatmeal" for breakfast, especially one heaped with nutrition, leaves me feeling full and satisfied.
The Beloved Zucchini
You may think you know zucchini. You may think zucchini has primarily one form, the ubiquitous "zoodle". But this "noatmeal" will have you looking at it in a fresh light. Here, it softens, yet provides a bit of bulk that the coconut and blueberries build upon.
Berries here means you can swap the blueberries for strawberries, or even a combination of the two. Heck, you could certainly swap the berries for another fruit entirely: cherries or peaches both sound appealing.
You will need to set aside any expectations for that off-white color normally associated with oatmeal. No such color exists here. Zucchini, blueberries, date syrup, all on the darker end of the color spectrum, means you should expect a noatmeal of a darker hue. If you're looking for a brighter color, top with color! Berries or other fruits will brighten here, as will a drizzle of coconut manna. Which I highly recommend, anyway.
What I Used to Make this Recipe:
- shredded coconut
- coconut milk
- vanilla bean powder (this is the stuff. It's one of those "it's a bit of a splurge but man do I love it" items)
- date syrup (you could also use honey or maple syrup here – but date syrup has less sugar than either and has a richer flavor that really works here)
- gelatin (Great Lakes is still my go-to)
- coconut manna (optional, great for the drizzling on top)
Enjoy this Zucchini Berry "Noatmeal" Breakfast Bowl! #letscreatethesweetlife if you make this recipe – we love nothing more than seeing you enjoy these recipes!!
PIN for later:
This recipe is part of Phoenix Helix's Recipe Roundtable #227. Be prepared for an explosion of creative and delicious, all-AIP recipes!!
Zucchini Berry "Noatmeal" Breakfast Bowl (AIP / Paleo)
This simple "noatmeal" features zucchini, berries and coconut. Perfect warm bowl for when you're craving oatmeal! Has the thick, chunky texture of oatmeal but is grain and nut free.
- 1 cup shredded zucchini (don't forget to squeeze out excess water before using!)
- 1 cup blueberries (or swap for strawberries or some combination of both)
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
- 4 ounces apple sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean powder
- 1 Tablespoon date syrup
- dash sea salt
- 2 Tablespoon gelatin
- toppings: coconut manna, berries, nuts and seeds if reintroduced or tolerated
Shred your zucchini and, using a nut-milk bag or clean towel, squeeze out excess moisture. A small but important step! Add all ingredients except for gelatin to small pot.
Cook over medium-high heat until bubbling; reduce to low and simmer for ~10 minutes. Add gelatin and stir to combine, then continue to cook for several minutes more.
Eat immediately. Serve topped with additional blueberries, a drizzle of coconut manna, or nuts if reintroduced / tolerated. Enjoy!!

Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall sat alone, turning the audio recorder on and off at will, literally giving word-for-word to the False Accuser.
The audio interview went like this: then he did …, then he did…, then he did… while the False Accuser merely nodded or stated "u-huh".
The complete narrative, word-for-word was planted as any corrupt cop plants drugs to frame someone.
All of this while family member Athena Dean Holtz sat outside the Enumclaw Police Station Athena Dean Holtz having worked very closely with Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall as each word was given to the False Accuser.
And these are just the surface facts.
Enumclaw Police Scripted It Out
Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall Court Testimony
A Believable Actor
"Some still believe she [False Accuser] is believable." – King County Prosecutor Lisa Johnson
"Some still believe she [False Accuser] is believable." – Prosecutor Lisa Johnson when confronted with evidence the crime was impossible and the accusations intersecting lies scripted out by the Enumclaw Police. Translation: in spite of all the evidence for a hate crime, this is against a Christian Church ran by Timothy Williams and we can pull the emotional strings of a jury to lynch a guilty verdict. The accuser is cute, the accuser can baby-talk, the accuser can look vulnerable, the False Accuser is a great little actor having been coached by Athena Dean Holtz so let us manipulate the jury without evidence of guilt. All that has to be done is to cover-up and block the evidence for the hate crime. And that is exactly what happened.
Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall planted, gave, instructed, guided, manipulated, led, gave, put in the accuser's mouth every-single-piece-of-accusation. Those are the facts. Typical of Detective McCall's methods for making any statement, which is to state something quick, short and leave out details that provide context. To read or listen to the transcript as Detective McCall and the Accuser sat alone for the "interview" is to behold in condensed form operating procedures within the Prosecutors Office. This is but proof that every conviction Dan Satterberg's, er, leadership achieves – it must be called into question by seeking the truth.
The Script
Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall scripted out the accusation for the, as Dan Satterberg puts it, a "believable" actor to accuse Timothy Williams, through Malcolm Fraser so that the church could no longer meet. The reason the whole King County Sexual Assault Unit did nothing was because it is all about acting believably and Dan Satterberg already had his "believable" actor to accuse. There just wasn't any need for further acting lessons or a quest for evidence.
What are you going to do when your church can no longer meet? – Prosecutor Jason Simmons
What are you going to do when your church can no longer meet? – Prosecutor Jason Simmons set into motion these actions for Prosecutor Mark Larson who was specifically appointed by Dan Satterberg.
The reason Prosecutor Rich Anderson and Lisa Johnson had zero problems with Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall's setup, direct planting of accusations was because Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall knew this is how it is done at the King County Courts. Fact is, Prosecutor Dan Satterberg, Prosecutor Mark Larson, Prosecutor Rich Anderson, Prosecutor Jason Simmons, Prosecutor Lisa Johnson had no problems with Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall's methods they also protected and harbored this horrendous cover-up of evidence. This was a concocted crime, a work of fiction, that did not, and does not, resembles any correlation to facts or evidence.
But what can you expect from Athena Dean Holtz? While Ms. Holtz refused to do her job at Winepress publishing, she did insist on reading every single book of fiction. If there is one thing Athena Dean Holtz understands, it is how to create a work of fictional lies. Ms. Holtz also reads God's will in fortune cookies so it is natural that Enumclaw Detective and Athena Dean Holtz (she sat outside Enumclaw Police Station) while the script was read to the False Accuser.
Timothy Williams Last 3 Minutes Before Jury
- Prosecutor Rich Anderson, "heard it was a cult."
- Prosecutor Jason Simmons, "what are you going to do when your church can no longer meet?"
- Prosecutor Lisa Johnson, "what's this?" she didn't like Timothy Williams newspaper of truth.
- Prosecutor Dan Satterberg's Office, "Is Timothy Williams special?" (it was Malcolm Fraser charged)
Timothy Williams never testified but in the last 3 minutes of the trial Prosecutor Mark Larson and team went for throat of anything associated with Timothy Williams. This was exactly what Athena Dean Holtz marketed hate crime goal was, what Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall set into motion to force is Bible "version" upon a church he considered evil and what "humble" Prosecutor Dan Satterberg's anti-Christian actions are well known for sought to make happen. Malicious prosecution is not an adequate word to describe the actions of these renegade officials.
Athena Dean Holtz gave Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall what he wanted, Detective Grant McCall gave Satterberg's office the style of trial they like and the appeals court provided the darkness to hide it all.
Kiss Our Ass We Will Cover Your Backs
This is why Prosecutor Mark Seaver in his written response to the appeals courted warned the judges to reject a new trial because everyone wanted to examine what Detective Grant McCall and the prosecutor's office did.
As Judge Susan Craighead states they are beholden-ed to Dan Satterberg's office to defend them when their rulings are called into question. No wonder Judge Susan Craighead wrote that a judge being called into question is "not particularly painful" and "get resolved by a motion to dismiss" from a ruling by a fellow judge that is, again, protected by Dan Satterberg.
The Prosecutor Attorneys Office, "represents us and generally the process is not particularly painful as most lawsuits by disgruntled litigants or public-records requesters get resolved by a motion to dismiss." Judge Susan Craighead
Clearly it is literally kiss our ass and we will cover your backs bribery down at the King County Courthouse.
Detective Grant McCall's "Interview"
This interview was to "confirm" what Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall wanted as Athena Dean Holtz waited outside the Enumclaw Police Station. In Fact, the recorder was shut off at least twice.
"Right from the get-go he [Detective Grant McCall]
gave her the information."
Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall sits alone with the False Accuser scripting out the accusations for the False Accuser.
Athena Dean Holtz sits outside the Enumclaw Police Station waiting eagerly for Detective Grant McCall to finish the script-out production so the pre-arranged media frenzy Ms. Holtz had arranged can be set into motion.
King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg along with the gang of King County Prosecutors applauded!
No wonder to it that King County Prosecutors approved of Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall, whom Athena Dean Holtz conspired with, of sitting alone with the False Accuser turning on and off the voice recorder at will. Athena Dean Holtz sat outside the Enumclaw Police Station while Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall directed the false accusation.
Athena Dean Holtz sat outside the Enumclaw Police Station while Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall directed the false accusation.
Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall literally performed a fill in the blank setup of false accusations. Detective McCall would state,
Then he [Malcolm Fraser] ____________ u-huh
Then he _____________ – yea
Then he ______________ – nod
Then he ______________
Then he ______________
— turn off recorder —
Then he ______________
Then he ______________
Then he ______________
Then he ______________
Then he ______________
— turn off recorder —
The he ____________________ while turning on and off the record throughout the whole manufactured interview.
…and so it went.
It doesn't take an expert, though one at great cost was provided to Judge Lori K. Smith that the whole interview was "worthless." That the officer, that is, Detective McCall, of Enumclaw Washington presented every thought "first" was very useful to King County Courts.
Manufacturing lies and marketing such lies are multi-level-marketing at it's sinful, criminal worse.
City of Enumclaw Detective Grant McCall sat alone with the False Accuser literally scripting out the accusation for King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg.
Athena Dean Holtz sat outside the Enumclaw Police Station as Detective Grant McCall turned on and off the audio recorder at will.
Judge Lori K. Smith and King County Prosecutors harbored such planting of accusations.
This is just one of many reasons why King County Prosecutors blocked an investigation.

Confirmed: Google Acquires DocVerse in Office Faceoff With Microsoft [UPDATED]
Please see this disclosure related to me and Google.
[UPDATE: Google confirmed the deal in a blog post, which you can read below, as well as in interviews BoomTown did today with execs at DocVerse and Google.]
Continuing its acquisition spree, Google has snapped up DocVerse, a start-up that allows users of Microsoft Office documents to collaborate in real-time on the Web, said several sources.
Sources said the price was in the $25 to $30 million range.
Founded by two ex-Microsoft (MSFT) execs in 2008, Shan Sinha and Alex DeNeui, San Francisco-based DocVerse has raised only $1.3 million in venture funding from Baseline Ventures, Harrison Metal and Naval Ravikant.
It's yet another shot across Microsoft's software bow by Google (GOOG), along with a range of other digital arenas such as cloud computing and mapping.
Google has been pushing its own cloud-based Google Docs, but it struggles against the Office juggernaut. Thus, a link with Office via DocVerse is a smart move.
Jonathan Rochelle, group product manager on the Google Apps team said that while some perceive the search giant as trying to compete directly with Office (a claim I openly scoffed at during the interview), Google did hear from customers that it wanted cloud-based functionality with Office.
"We heard from customers that there is a great need for help in the cloud," he said. "This acquisition helps users move over the to cloud and expands our product."
DocVerse CEO Sinha said his small company–under 20 employees, who will be moving down to the Googleplex HQ in Mountain View, Calif., immediately–had been talking to Google for a while.
"We were gaining traction in the product in large enterprises…so, it made sense, because we have a vision of a world of Web-based collaboration," he said.
While Sinha said he admired what Microsoft had done with Office, he noted there is a need for more, and a hook-up with the powerful Google will help DocVerse do that sooner.
"Microsoft is doing a lot of great things for its customers who use its stack of software," he said. "But we see a whole other world interested in the Web-based approach that is not being served very well right now."
For its part, Microsoft has committed itself to moving its hugely popular productivity suite–which includes Word, PowerPoint and Excel–into the cloud, in order to protect its software hegemony.
Why? Simultaneous group-editing and collaboration online is clearly the future of Office.
In fact, yesterday, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer made a significant statement related to cloud computing in a speech, noting, "This is the bet for the company. For the cloud, we're all in."
In an interesting side note, this is the third company that Harrison Metal has invested in that has been acquired by Google over the last several months. Other sales have included AdMob for $750 million and Aardvark for $50 million.
There had been a post in TechCrunch back in December that the deal was nearly done, but it was apparently not completed until now.
Here is the blog post on the deal from Google:
Google Docs welcomes DocVerse
Friday, March 05, 2010 at 10:48 AM
?The future of productivity applications is in the cloud. We've always believed the web is the best platform for creating and sharing information, and Google Docs has already helped millions of people become more productive. But we recognize that many people are still accustomed to desktop software. So as we continue to improve Google Docs and Google Sites as rich collaboration tools, we're also making it easier for people to transition to the cloud, and interoperate with desktop applications like Microsoft Office.
For example, we recently made it possible to use Google Docs to store and share any type of file that you have on your computer, not just the ones you create online. Today we're excited to announce another step towards seamless interoperability: we have acquired DocVerse.
DocVerse is a small, nimble team of talented developers who share our vision, and they've enabled true collaboration right within Microsoft Office. With DocVerse, people can begin to experience some of the benefits of web-based collaboration using the traditional Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint desktop applications.
A huge "welcome" to the DocVerse team and their customers! Current DocVerse users can keep using the product as usual, though we've suspended new sign-ups until we're ready to share what's next. Stay tuned!
