"The only thing better than singing is more singing."
— Ella Fitzgerald
Our artistic staff recognize the importance of sharing music with a larger audience outside our local community. With so many divisive forces at work in our society and in other countries, we strive to become a catalyst toward positive change by underlining those common human experiences.
Here at TCNE we've seen the power music has to transcend boundaries of differences in language, culture, and ethnicity. By sharing our music both domestically and internationally we hope to make a real difference in people's lives.
To accomplish this for our young artists, we rely heavily on the generosity of our community. We'd love for you to consider supporting us!

The Russia best russian women 's nationwide handball staff is actually the nationwide crew of Russia. It is actually overseen due to the Handball Union of Russia as well as participates in worldwide handball competitors.
They are actually since January 2011, the only handball group on the best russian women 's and also guys's edge around the world, to have actually succeeded the World Championship 3 successive opportunities. Crew Russia ultimately gained their 1st gold at the 2016 Olympics, beating France in the last.
The Russian best russian women 's nationwide handball staff was actually developed in 1993 as the follower Soviet Union best russian women 's nationwide handball crew, among the toughest handball groups. In spite of the 3rd spot at the 1992 Summer Olympics as Unified Team, Russia in the adhering to 8 years could possibly certainly not certify to the Olympic Games.[[ 1 ]
In this duration the Russian crew observed 4 modifications of trainers, that resigned after stopping working on huge occasions.

After living in Boulder for a short time now, I discovered that there are basically four major inhabitants; college students, conservative entrepreneurs, liberal vegetarians, and prairie dogs. The liberals teach the students, the students work for the entrepreneurs, and the entrepreneurs sells back to the liberals. The prairie dogs are saved by the liberals, threatened by the entrepreneur, and aerate the soil for the students in which to grow their herbal 'medicine'. It's the circle of life.
Last week, we were down at the more liberal end of Boulder (we go there every now and zen—ba dum bum), for an early dinner. In this part of town you will find all the vegan stores. In fact, many of the locals have that healthy, yet extremely anemic, look from not touching a pork chop in years.
The place we choose was a new age brew house. That means lots of local microbrews on tap and a menu consisting of kasha, lentils, and couscous. The rationale is that you are supporting the local economy and fair trade all in one meal. It's Happy Hour with a conscience, because eating just based on hunger is not enough here.
When the bill arrived I took out my wallet and was ready to pay when the waiter informed me they don't take credit cards, only cash and checks. Before ATMs, if you found yourself in a situation like this it usually ended up with a trip to the kitchen for some first hand dishwashing. Finding myself short of funds, the waiter presented me with a self addressed stamped envelope and the check. "We would appreciate it if you would just mail it in." He then handed me the only copy of the bill. "You mean you don't have a copy of the check?" I asked incredulously. I couldn't believe he was just going to let us walk out of there.
He shot me back a look that showed no amusement whatsoever. He continued in a very righteous tone "We rely on karma and trust our guests to do the right thing."
"Oh sure, karma. I got ya," and stuffed the bill into my bag of leftovers which was overflowing with ancient grains from our breadbasket. We proceeded to head out, turning our heads left and right to see if this was really happening. Once outside the restaurant (where there was an ATM by the way) my wife asked me "You are going to pay it, aren't you?"
"What am I some sort of sap?" I told her. "We can live like kings here. Imagine, eating for free every day! Why, I change my facial hair so often now that they would never recognize me." The pained look on my wife's face said it all.
"But what about your karma for not paying?" she asked.
"Karma? I thought that's how you said 'goodbye' in those places? You know like, Have a happy karma, come again, that sort of thing. Anyway, maybe we're talking about his karma," I said trying to convince myself. "Did you ever think it was his bad karma that he should open a restaurant and have me for a patron? If you're so worried about karma why don't you pay it?" We passed the bill back and forth like a game of hot potato all the way home. Later, when my wife was asleep, I slipped the bill and the envelope into her pile of mail and ran away like an eight-year-old little girl from a frog. It was the perfect crime. Next week I'm going back as a Hindu priest!
Look #164 Greek olive peddler.
Besides stiffing restaurants, I found a new vocation that I was born for. I started sending in reviews to Trip Advisor. Seems I have a knack for complaining. Who knew, besides everyone in my life that is? My reviews have gotten a good deal of exposure. And why not? They're pithy, I mean just full of pits, and short. I think it's the short part more than any writing gymnastics that earns a nod. Here's a typical review on the Hotel Cezanne in France.
"Keeping that French attitude alive!"
The only black spot in an otherwise wonderful trip to France last year was the Hotel Cezanne in Aix. My wife, who had booked our room for three people months before our trip, called the morning we were to arrive to confirm our reservations. Even though she told them that we would arrive late in the day, they assured us it was no problem. Our room, however, was given away. With no where else to go the three of us had to share a queen-size bed in an incredibly small room. The next night we found a room at Hotel Roi René that was larger, cleaner, and offered a wonderful pool in the courtyard. BTW: Nearly everyone we met in France was gracious and cordial, except of course at Hotel Cezanne.
Room Tip: One at another hotel.
If only I could get paid for my view of the world's hotels and food establishments. Ahhh, to dream…
I'm back to plein air painting. This does NOT warrant a critique! This is done by Boulder Creek just west of town.

Located in the West Loch of Pearl Harbor, Pouhala Marsh is the last remaining natural wetland habitat on Oʻahu's south coast. It's considered a crucial resource for the protection and habitat for several Hawaiian plants and animal species—particularly the endangered Hawaiian stilt, or aeʻo. During non-breeding season, Hawaiian stilt numbers on the marsh can exceed 150 birds, about 10 percent of the remaining world population.
Volunteers have played a vital role in the restoration of Pouhala Marsh. Since December 2001, over 1,700 volunteers have worked on teaching sites for Hawaiʻi Nature Center's wetland programs, plus cleared habitat areas for the endangered wetland birds. Volunteers meet once a month, on a Saturday morning, to work on a tasks like trash removal, outplanting, and eradication of invasive plant species. To join the Pouhala Marsh effort, contact Volunteer Program Manager Pauline Kawamata, email@example.com.

The Voice Of TV: Wow. Right? I'm approaching my review of this episode a bit differently this week because right now I'm experiencing entirely too many emotions regarding the fair residents of Mystic Falls. Which, please note, does not include Jules. The only feeling I have for her is rancor. I almost want Klaus to get his way with the ritual just to have her sacrificed. What this says about me is that I am a grudge holder. Everyone in Mystic Falls should take lessons from me on how that works.
If the main character is going to end up a vampire instead of the level headed human....that's the end of this series for me.

15 x 100 BinocularsA superb pair of 15 x 100 (15 power magnification and 100 mm objective lenses) large scale military binoculars, circa 1940, by Toko of Japan, originally used for long range land, sea and air observation during WWII. The Japanese companies of Nikko and Toko were the main manufacturers of binoculars for Japan's military during WWII. It is recorded that the Japanese optical industries purchased some 200,000 pounds of optical glass from Schott in Germany through the duration of the war. The binoculars have been stripped of their original paint, the cast aluminium polished to a mirror finish and then mounted on a modern aluminium tripod. The optics have been fully refurbished to the highest standards.Enquire#This item is now sold.

Our Origin Story
The founders of FundHero spent years searching for the right tool to help local candidates and nonprofits get organized and raise money. Too much money gets left on the table due to lack of organization and messy, complicated tracking system but they couldn't find anything.
After some time we decided to embark on a journey to create the tool we had always been looking for. Enter FundHero!
It needed to be a low-cost, easy-to-use tool that was something between a spreadsheet and a full-blown donor system. It needed to be quick, simple, and intuitive while being modern and mobile. It needed the versatility and chicness of a Spidey suit, but it didn't need all the flashy gadgets of Batman's. Something to help users through common roadblocks but not so complicated they needed dedicated staff to make it work. Oh yeah. It also needed to be cheap!
In 2016 we embarked on a journey to fill that need for local campaigns and non-profits. A simple, forward-thinking fundraising tool designed to attract the next generation of organizers, but robust enough to capture battle-hardened fundraisers.
The initial beta was an iron suit built in a cave. Rugged, tough, and a little inflexible, but it muscled its way through to get the job down. Now, the backend has been revamped, a shiny red design was added, and the tools necessary to support your quest were added.
We are always upgrading our sidekick tools aiming to make you the best Hero out there.
*Cue the superhero music*. Let's change the world together!

A tasty and foolproof alternative to your standard rice side dish is rice pilaf! Baked in the oven, it comes out fluffy and tender every time.
YUM!!!! I halved the recipe (except fot the onion) and baked it in an 8x8 baking dish. This came out PERFECT! I didn't have the saffron, so I omitted that. I can't believe the flavor that came out of just those few ingredients...sooo good! I will def be making this delicious rice again! Thanks for sharing. - 07 Aug 2012 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
You know, I was making such a small amount of this recipe for Hubs and me that I immediately decided the oven method wasn't practical for me and decided to just use the traditional stovetop method instead. But I must say, after reading through the recipe thoroughly I wasn't impressed, and wondered, truly, what the real advantage was of preparing the rice this way rather than the stovetop method regardless of the number of servings. This recipe's method requires more steps and more pans. The stovetop method is a "one stop shop." Also, I'm not sure I like the ratio of rice to liquid either - in my mind, it should always be one part rice to (at least) two parts cooking liquid, be it water or stock. I like the addition of saffron and onion, but neither is anything special. And the cayenne isn't necessary at all. Frankly, the bottom line is that this is a basic, simple rice with an unnecessarily complicated way of cooking it. In addition to simply cooking it on the stove top I made it a little more colorful and festive by adding a medley of colorful finely chopped bell peppers, fresh minced garlic and a good handful of frozen peas. Prepared as directed, this requires unnecessary steps that don't benefit the final result. - 15 May 2013 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I loved loved the texture of this rice. It was so easy to make too. I sprayed the pan with some PAM and none of it stuck. When I saw the amount of salt and the cayenne, I was a little worried. It was a tad too salty for me and there was a kickback from the cayenne. I made it a second time and cut the salt back to 1 tsp. and the cayenne by half. That time I got the cayenne amount right, but still working on the salt amount. I will have to keep working on the right salt amount. Though, thanks Chef John for teaching me a new method to cook rice. - 11 Aug 2012 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)

Mother Charged After Baby's Arms Severed
Associated Press, By LISA FALKENBERG, Nov 23, 2004
PLANO, Texas (AP) -- With a calm, dispassionate voice and a hymn playing in the background, Dena Schlosser confessed to the unthinkable, telling a 911 operator she'd cut off the arms of her baby girl.
The woman was sitting in her living room covered with blood when police arrived Monday. Her nearly 11-month-old daughter lay fatally injured in a crib in a bedroom of the family's apartment in Plano. The child died shortly afterward at a hospital.
Police have charged the 35-year-old mother with capital murder, but declined to reveal where she is being held.
Schlosser, who had a history of postpartum depression, had been investigated on child neglect allegations earlier this year, but Texas Child Protective Services had recently closed a seven-month investigation, concluding that Schlosser did not pose a risk to her children. Neighbors said she seemed to be a loving, attentive mother.
"There were never any indications of violence with this family," agency spokeswoman Marissa Gonzales said, describing the children as healthy and happy.
But, on Monday, authorities discovered a grisly scene after the child's father called a day-care center and asked staffers to check on his wife and daughter.
Day-care workers called 911 after talking to the mother; an operator then called Schlosser.
Asked if there was an emergency, Schlosser calmly responded "Yes," according to 911 tapes released by police.
Duke says when police arrived at the family's apartment, they found Dena Schlosser along with her nearly eleven-month-old baby with her arms severed.
"Exactly what happened?" the operator asked.
"I cut her arms off," Schlosser replied, as the hymn "He Touched Me" played in the background.
"You cut her arms off?" he repeated.
"Uh huh," she answered.
It was not immediately clear what instrument was used to sever the baby's arms or why the child's father called the day-care center. The name of the baby was not released.
Authorities said the two older daughters in the family, ages 6 and 9, were at school when police arrived, and that their father was at work.
No one answered the door Monday night at the family's apartment in suburban Dallas. Children's bicycles rested near the entrance along with angel garden statues.
Neighbors said Schlosser took her children swimming in the summer, had picnics in the courtyard and walked her baby around the complex the same time each afternoon.
Dena Livingston, 43, said she saw Schlosser making her rounds with the stroller on Sunday. Two days earlier, she saw Schlosser waiting with the baby outside the school her two other daughters attend.
"She didn't give off like she was in a distant world or didn't care about the baby," Livingston said.
Livingston's husband, Brad, added:"To see herwith the gils, you woud just thin she was a reat mother"
Child-protective officials were interviewing Schlossr's daughters and would talk to the father before deciding whether to remove the girls from the home.
In January, the agency was called to the home after Schlosser was seen running down the street, with one of her daughters bicycling after her, authorities said. When officials arrived, the child told them her mother had left her 6-day-old sister alone in the apartment.
Schlosser appeared at the time to be suffering from postpartum depression and having a psychotic episode, Gonzales said.
Schlosser was hospitalized, and later agreed to seek counseling and saw a psychiatrist, Gonzales said.
"At the time we closed the case, we had been assured that Mom was stabilized and that she was not a risk to herself or her children," Geoff Wool, spokesman for the Family and Protective Services Department, said.
A capital murder charge in Texas carries only two possible sentences: life in prison or the death penalty. Prosecutors did not say whether they plan to seek the death penalty.
The Schlosser case is the latest infamous case in recent years of Texas mothers accused of killing their children.
Andrea Yates of Houston drowned her five children, ages 6 months to 7 years, in the bathtub in 2001. She was convicted of capital murder in the deaths of three of the children and is serving a life sentence. The defense had said she suffered from schizophrenia and postpartum depression.
This year, Deanna Laney, 39, was acquitted of capital murder by reason of insanity after killing her sons, ages 8 and 6. A third son was injured. Psychiatrists said Laney, of New Chapel Hill, suffered from psychotic delusions that God told her to kill her children. She was committed to a mental hospital.

I'm sure all of you have heard the joke about the executive who was addressing the entire staff and when he came to the part about having an open door policy, he asked if whoever took his door would give it back.
Well, the open door policy in The FENG is of a similar nature. None of us should have closed doors when it comes to communications from our fellow members. Yes, I know that at times we get messages from our fellow members that appear to be a little impersonal and/or not well thought out, but we should all give these "misguided" individuals the benefit of the doubt and try to help them anyway. Not everyone is a wiz with the written word. I would also point out that email has no tone.
The inherent sincerity that I hope is in the DNA of each of our members by reason of their being a part of our little family is not always easy to see. When others are stressed out, and you may be stressed out at the moment too, your goal needs to be patience and understanding.
The core value of The FENG is our willingness to help one another on any and all problems a fellow member may raise with us. It isn't always easy, but if it was easy, anyone could do it.
What we are trying to create as our organization matures is a very large small family. It is large in the sense that we have a huge number of members to choose from, but it is a small family because we have been able to divide ourselves into chapters and special interest groups and inner circles of friends.
Not everyone is a perfect fit for you and the issues you are trying to resolve on a particular day. On the taking side, I ask that you be selective and only contact those individuals that you honestly believe can help you. Striking out in all directions and writing to everyone is a strategy that will dilute even the strength of an organization like The FENG.
At the beginning of your relationship with The FENG, someone extended the hand of friendship to you and offered to sponsor you. Little did you know what you were getting yourself into. The FENG is like the mafia in the sense that you can join, but you can't quit. Honestly, there is no reason to quit.
That said, to be a member in good standing, I hope I can always count on each and everyone one of you to do "The FENG thing," which very simply is to always have your door open to your fellow members.
I know based on the rather significant number of our members that are working that you are all very busy. We are all very busy. Count yourself lucky if you are busy. Hard as it is to believe, there are members who would give anything to find another job. That is where all of us come in.
This job search thing appears to be a process filled with mystery. It is a skill all of us need to learn who want to be working. Your goal if you have mastered this skill or are trying to master it is to share your knowledge and experience.
So, I hope when you next get an email or a phone call from one of your fellow members, you will take a deep breath and consider how you can help. I know the boss is calling you every 5 minutes about that report you were supposed to finish yesterday, but he can probably wait. (After all, it is already late.) You will find that helping others is the world's best stress reliever.
Remember, every day and in every way, it all starts with you. If you help others, when you need help this resource called The FENG will be there for you, in spades.
Regards, Matt

Bond testers are traditionally used for force measurement only, but the extreme positional accuracy of the Condor Sigma platform also enables you to measure whether the dimensions of your product are within specification, with never before seen accuracies. The system is equipped with 30nm resolution linear encoders and is completely backlash free (no gear box).
On any Condor Sigma bond tester, the loop height measurement test method is available for free using pull sensors. The system will accurately determine the height of a wire, ribbon or other component above the surface. The measurement result in this case is not a force, but a distance. It is just as easy to analyze distance data as to analyze force data with the Sigma.
To enable quicker testing, the system can store the Z-height of the surface under the first wire and use this value again when sensing the following multiple wires. It is also possible to probe the surface height in a different spot than directly under the wire. Click here to read more...
The probe test method is available on any Condor Sigma for free using pull or shear sensors. The system will accurately determine the Z-height of two positions and compare them to each other.
One can choose a programmed X/Y offset between the two points, or program the method so that the tester will move a certain distance in the direction in which your tool is pointing. The Probe test method is of course available for both manual and automatic testing.
The Condor Sigma is also unique because of its programmable landing force down to 2,5 gf. Combined with an also programmable probe test speed, this enables very delicate sensing. Deformations or damage to the sample are therefore minimized.
XYZTEC announces that it is teaming up with Schmidt Scientific Taiwan Ltd. (SST), an experienced company that serves Taiwan and mainland China. SST has decades of experience selling bond testing equipment and is now opting for the technology leader. Both companies see this as a logical step to keep up with XYZTEC's rapidly increasing market share. SST is a great addition to the international sales and distribution network for the Condor Sigma. "We could see XYZTEC was the better way forward for us", says Jim Lin, Vice President of SST. Click here to read more...

Ricky Williams, one of the most-hyped running backs of the past generation who also ended up being one of the most disappointing, says that he plans to play two more years and then call it quits.
According to Jeff Darlington of the Miami Herald, Williams has signed a one-year extension with the Dolphins, putting him under contract through 2010.
"I talked to Bill [Parcells] about it, and we came to an agreement," Williams said. "It
was quiet and easy." (And perhaps . . . mellow?)
NFLPA records already confirm that Williams will earn $3.4 million in base salary this year and $4.35 million in base salary next year. It's unknown whether any of the money is guaranteed.
Williams said that he negotiated the agreement on his own, without the assistance of an agent. (Which we suppose is still better than using Master P.)
Despite missing all of 2004 due to retirement and all of 2006 due to a suspension and playing only one game in 2007 due in part to suspension and in part to injury, Williams has generated 7,771 career rushing yards on 1,923 carries, for a 4.0 average.
In 2002, his first season with the Dolphins, Williams rushed for 1,853 yards — the twelfth highest single-season total in league history, and the second most for an active players. (Jamal Lewis rushed for 2,066 in 2003.)
Last year, Williams admitted that he had the "urge" to smoke marijuana during the bye week.
This year, the Dolphins are off on October 18.
We wonder whether he'll receive any packages that week bearing a Foxborough or a New York postmark.

Before leaving for Los Angeles to attend Disney Social Media Moms, I visited Kohl's to see the new Magic at Play line, a one-of-a-kind collaboration between Disney and Kohl's in a new apparel line for infants, toddlers, and elementary ages. This themed collection is darling for young Disney fans who love mixing and matching practical and fun clothes featuring Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
The fun patterns and whimsical designs of the clothes that are part of the girls' line made me wish that Little Miss Techie, age 10, was just a bit younger. Items like the black full skirt with a little bit of sparkle, red tiered polka dotted skirt, leggings with just a hint of Minnie, or casual cotton shorts with just enough bling pair well with any of the tops for the ultimate mix and match experience. Here are some of the fun looks for girls in the toddler and 4-6x line.
Captain Computer at age 7 just fits the biggest size of the boys line that is designed for infants, toddlers, and boys up to size 7. The boys' line consists of a lot of active wear in performance wicking fabric and muscle shirts that are perfect for summer. I also love that the quick dry nature of the fabric makes the shirts and shorts great for a day at the park, especially if your kids love water rides as much as mine do!
Thanks to the collaboration between Disney and Kohl's, I have a $50 gift card to give away to one lucky reader to help outfit your kids in items from the Magic at Play line for the summer!

The Teflon Don, John Gotti, formally endorsed Carl Paladino for New York Governor over Andrew Cuomo. Although Gotti, boss of the Gambino crime family, died June 10, 2002, he is still feared because of his ability to defy the long arm of the law, including even the law of nature.
Interestingly, Gotti, Paladino and Cuomo all trace their origins back to Southern Italy and Sicily. This being Mafia territory for centuries makes it more intriguing because of the blood bond between families. Paradoxically, Gotti, who was at least not a politician, was the only one of the three to be prosecuted and sent to prison. Cuomo, the slickest of the trio, came from a longer line of criminals than both Gotti and Paladino. His father, Andrew Cuomo was once the Governor of New York and evidently passed on his criminal wiles to his son.
The outspoken Paladino, who doesn't think it's proper for Speedo wearing gay men to rub their genitals against each other in front of Cuomo's impressionable young daughters during a Gay Pride celebration, is, if nothing else, an honest man who speaks his mind with little reservation.
All in all, most New Yorkers will probably stumble over themselves and vote for Cuomo because he speaks with a forked tongue.

Where Next for the Arab Spring? Look At Networked Middle Classes Without Oil
BY Micah L. Sifry | Monday, March 21 2011
Philip Howard adds one more crucial variable to the discussion of the factors affecting the Arab Spring (see my "Egypt, Tunisia: Generation TXT Comes of Age?"): oil, or the degree to which a country's economy has or hasn't developed a middle-class not dependent on Texas Tea. Howard, whose book "The Digital Origins of Dictatorship and Democracy: Information Technology and Political Islam" offers a complex and nuanced (if dry and somewhat academic) taxonomy for analyzing the varied pace of democratization across the region, suggests that Jordan, Morocco, and Syria may be the closest to experiencing uprisings such as the ones that overthrew despots in Tunisia and Egypt. While noting that they each have complicated histories and unique domestic political profiles, "They also have sophisticated, tech-savvy publics, economies not dependent on fuel exports, and regimes that may try to rig elections in the next two years," he writes on the Oxford University Press blog.

The Freya Sandal | Kit
This style is full of repetition allowing the maker to get into good work flow. When it comes to forming the shape of the sandal over the foot, this is one of the easiest styles due to how simple it is to place and fit the straps.
All the materials and instructional support to create your sandals!
- Access to instructional online video lessons
- PDF instructional booklet with illustrations
- PDF patterns of chosen style (all sizes)
- Leather for shoe upper
- EVA high density midsole material @ 4mm thickness
- Resin/rubber pre-cut heel pieces @ 6mm height
- Resin/rubber pre-cut outsoles @ 3mm thickness (accommodates women's sizes 6-12. Larger soles can be arranged via email)
- Leather rand
- Black buckles
- Needle and thread
- Shoe glue & brushes
- Tracing pencil
** Please purchase The Specialty Tools Kit to make this sandal style. Alternatively, you can just purchase the strap-end punch, oblong hole punch and mini hole punch (economy or spring handle) to get through most of the tasks.
You do not need to choose a size for this kit as the patterns and instructions accommodate any size.
- Heavy duty scissors for cutting curved lines through the leather
- Rotary blade or knife for cutting straight lines through the leather
- Measuring tape
- Paper or light cardboard
- Metal ruler
- Gas lighter (to melt the wax thread)
- Cutting mat
- Shears or pliers for cutting through soling material & heels
The final step of sandal making is to smooth the edges of your soles. This can be done using a sanding belt or a metal file. You can either purchase both items from your local tool store, or you can take your formed sandals to a shoe repairer to do the final sanding/smoothing. This should be an inexpensive option.
Ever changing limited edition colours are available for the kits! Please note that any one colour is extremely limited in supply so may only be available for a short time, and as a once off.
All parcels are sent via Australia Post. You can choose parcel post or express post at checkout. Kits will be packed and delivered to Australia Post within 48 hours from time of order. In the event that there are packing delays, you will be notified via email.

Location: Lahaina, HI
Shape: Changing
Duration:>20 minutes
|White-ish/blue lighted sphere that changed to a white triangle over west Maui
From the beach at Ka'anapali-Lahaina, Maui Hawaii looking west, my wife and I saw a very bright light above the island of Lana'i. At first I thought it was a planet that was much brighter than usual, such as Mars but it wasn't red, it was a very bright blue-ish-white, similar to Xenon headlights color. At one point I had looked over to my wife to tell her to look at th bright light and she had asked about what it was. When I looked back to see it, it had moved south and was slightly dimmer.
At this point, I no longer thought it was a planet and started to think it was a plane or helicopter and shortly after we could see the shape go from a round shape that had a tint of blue, to a triangle shape that was more what and looked to have an obvious set of points. Then I thought it had to be the mast light on top of a yacht or something and was thinking to myself, "It's gotta be closer than you think! Is gotta!"
I started to get my iPhone from my pocket but kept getting distracted by moving object that it took me a little bit to get it out and started taking pictures and video. I took a few photos that don't imply anything special and look like a star or something. I took a short video of just around 2 minutes and the craft is clearly visible as the light I described. It's hard to see the object moving because I was moving the camera.
As my wife and I started to walk back the way we came (heading south, back towards the Hyatt hotel) and a ways away we came upon two women, in their 20's and I asked them if they could see that light and they started talking about how they had been watching it move and thought it was a planet or a plane too. So we started thinking about what it could be but as we came up with possibilities, we could de-characterize the behavior of the object with common knowledge of planes and helicopters. Most moving aircraft will have at least alternating flashing lights on each wing or the top/bottom of the craft. They also don't move in sharp, zig-zag patterns and erratic flight bahavior we saw. Then the one of the girls said the same thing I thought about it being the light at the top of a yachts mast and that it could be closer than we think but we could see 3 yachts a couple hundred yards off shore very close to us that didn't have lights nearly as bright on top and they were not ! moving like the craft in the sky.
We all watched it move out over towards the direction of Lahaina. My wife and I said a few things about the event with the 2 girls and headed back towards our hotel and didn't see the flying craft again. The craft was obvious to us for about 20-30 minutes from when we first noticed the bright light to the point where we couldnt really see well any longer and headed back to the north side of Ka'anapali where our hotel, the Sheraton, is.
We talked about what we saw and how cool it be to have finally seen a UFO. My wife asked if I was going to tell anybody about it and I said, "I really want to! I don't know who to tell though!" I asked her the same thing and she said "Hell no! I don't want everyone to think I'm crazy! Nobody would take it seriously anyway." I said "that's true but we know what we saw! That was awesome!"
When we got back to our home on Oahu, we told our roommate and he started making jokes about it. "Did it abduct someone? Could you see little green men flying it? Did you sing the melody (notes from 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind')?" and stuff of that nature were among the few jokes he said and even when my wife backed up my story, however reluctant, our roommate continued with his "witty banter". I showed him the video I took and he still made fun of our encounter.
I would think it to be very ignorant and nieve of us to think we are alone in the realm of all space and given that time is infinite in past and present, why wouldn't others have found us by now? It would be equally ignorant and nieve to think our government has flying craft, capable of amazing maneuvers etc.
I cannot explain what I saw as a common aircraft or ship and I know it happened and there were others there to share in this experience. I'm glad and greatful to have had the experience.

Joshua Humphreys, (born June 17, 1751, Haverford Township, Pa., U.S.—died Jan. 12, 1838, Haverford, Pa.), American shipbuilder and naval architect who designed the U.S. frigate Constitution, familiarly known as "Old Ironsides" (launched Oct. 21, 1797).
Humphreys was commissioned in 1794 to design six frigates for the newly formed U.S. Navy, thus becoming the first American naval construction contractor. His designs called for ships that were longer and broader than usual, lower in the water, and able to equal the speed of any fighting ship. They were stabler than other ships of their time and could carry, with better maneuverability, as many guns on one deck as others did on two. Thus his frigates, which were to protect the otherwise defenseless American commerce, could compensate for the naval superiority of hostile powers and pirates. The first vessel to be completed, the United States, was launched on May 10, 1797, and became the Navy's first capital ship at sea; the Constitution, Chesapeake, Constellation, President, and Congress followed. His ships were renowned for their speed and individual accomplishments, and the efficiency of his designs eventually influenced European shipbuilders.

Songwriter Father John Misty posts his 'rejected Pandora promos'
Father John Misty, one of the snarkier singer-songwriters out there, may not actually be hosting an online radio station, but that hasn't stopped him from saying so.
Recording a series of bumps called Rejected Pandora Promos on his SoundCloud, he pushes his "new Pandora mixtape" and smoothly introduces himself as follows: "My name is Father John Misty, and most nights I wake up in a cold sweat on a moving bus, convinced I'm DEAD!"
It's not clear whether these are really rejected promos or just parody posts, and Pandora hasn't supported these in any official way. But the references to skin suits and hiding from his parents suggest the music streaming service probably didn't authorize anything.
Listen to his bumps here:
With backing bass and trumpet melodies, he assures listeners that his new Pandora mixtape helps him "retain some semblance of an emotional existence" as he sells himself piece by wretched piece, one t-shirt at a time. He also guarantees that it's "100% Ed Sheeran."
As of yet, no 100% Ed Sheeran mixtape by Father John Misty has been found. Not that anyone's really expecting to find it.

Notes: Zucchini blossoms are sold in some specialty produce stores as well as in farmers' markets (often attached to the squash), and can sometimes be ordered there. But if you don't have access to the blossoms, don't shy away from this dish; it's almost as tasty - if not as beautiful - without the flowers.
How to Make It
In a 5- to 6-quart pan over high heat, bring 3 to 4 quarts water to a boil. Add orecchiette and cook, stirring occasionally, until barely tender to bite, 15 to 18 minutes.
Meanwhile, rinse and drain zucchini blossoms; reserve about four blossoms for garnish. Pull petals from remaining blossoms and cut lengthwise into quarters; discard tough stem ends and other parts.
Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil into a 10- to 12-inch frying pan over medium-high heat; when hot, add garlic and porcini and stir just until mushrooms are limp and liquid is evaporated, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in herbs and remove from heat.
Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid, and return to pan. Add mushroom mixture, along with tomatoes, quartered zucchini blossoms, remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix gently over medium-low heat until warmed through, 5 to 7 minutes. If pasta is too dry, add reserved cooking liquid as desired. Spoon into wide, shallow bowls and garnish portions with reserved whole zucchini blossoms. Top with parmesan curls if desired.

Finally… The last project for my Wild Child papercut series.
I made this one months ago but haven't gotten the chance to post this until today.
4×4 in.
Pink cardstock
115 gsm
from Regalong Pambahay
Double glass
6×6 in.
Brown floral border
I just love how the frame's border is also printed with wild flowers!
Now that this series is complete, I can move on to another one. Thinking of a project that's inspired by a bestselling book. Any guesses which one it'd be? 😉
Before I end this post, let me show you the cleaning tool I use after messing up my worktable with pieces of paper. Cute huh? :))
This piece is for sale, by the way. Contact me for details 🙂

Travelers, there is no path; paths are made by walking.
~ Antonio Machado
I am grateful today that, after many years of hovering on the edges, dodging, denying, hemming, hawing, and arguing over semantics, I am at peace with knowing I am psychic.
I have been conflicted for years about it because that word is so loaded with baggage. Most of it is ridiculous, unsavory, and embarrassing to me. If this wasn't a post about gratitude, I could write a five page essay on the ways I despise the image portrayed by people like "The Long Island Medium."
The mainstream media, and before that, the Church, has always presented us as strange, frightening, even damned.
But we're not the crazy, dangerous, ignorant misfits we are so often portrayed to be. Nor do we have superpowers that can know in a glance everything about you — from what you are thinking right now, to where you misplaced your great-grandmother's earrings, to who you will meet and marry in six years.
Sadly, there are plenty of psychics (that might, or might not actually be) that prey upon and make money from that ignorance; but they sow the seeds of real trouble. They alienate the public from us as being real human beings (with plenty of blind spots of our own). If we were that powerful and all-knowing, don't you think we'd all have won the lottery by now?
For years, I admitted, less intimidatingly, to be "intuitive." Not an intuitive, mind you; even that is too edgy for polite company. Like many people, I would have dreams, déjà vu, and premonitions that were very clear messages, sometimes warnings. I was reassured that this was normal on my mother's side of the family; it was well known that many of our Irish ancestors had the second sight. (Little did I know what that really meant until later).
However, life has a way of grinding down our false barriers. Although I attempted to mitigate myself by claiming only my Tarot skills, which I used to pretend were acceptably left-brained, the truth usually, eventually, works its way out.
It started with my guides who, for years, I mostly experienced as just random and very vague gut feelings.
But sometimes in the middle of a Tarot reading, I would get a real flash. I would actually "hear" someone or something give me information that might seem completely off topic.
I began to trust this, and as I did, I discovered I had a team or, as I now fondly call them, my entourage. They are unique individuals, human and non-, and each possesses special gifts. They are eager helpers, and love to be called on for their assistance.
From there, the doors have just kept opening and opening. So now, even if I am just trying to stick to the cards, peoples' ancestors will sometimes appear with messages. Or I will "see" an animal standing behind the querent, protectively embracing them, or the spirit of a child that wants to be known.
I prefer to use the cards, because my mission is to help my clients see for themselves. I don't really want my sessions to be a one-way download from Mystery. I find such dynamics tend to make people the passive recipients of something closer to entertainment than enlightenment.
Instead, I find the Tarot encourages intimate, interactive conversation. I want my client to begin see what I see, and the cards are a reliable, effective tool to expedite that.
So today, I give thanks for how much more fun, adventurous, compassionate, and rich my life is, knowing and owning that I am psychic. I hope that soon, you will know that you are, too.
Alas, because of my recent cancer surgeries, my Tarot services are still on hiatus. But my Soul Card kits — created and blessed in collaboration with my allies of the Green Realms — are available, and I hope to be fully recovered soon. Thanks for your kindnesses and good wishes.

PCB design challenges – In many systems processors use multiple interfaces including I2C, GPIO, I2S and UART to collect data from peripherals and sensors. In some of these systems PCB real estate is a premium in addition designers are going with smaller PCBs that connect together to fit into neat looking industrial designs. Routing signals through congested PCBs and connectors presents some challenges.
FPGA based solution – The Single wire Aggregation reference design runs on two iCE40 UltraPlus FPGAs to aggregate multiple data streams such as I2C, UART, I2S and GPIO in TDM fashion by one FPGA and send it over a single wire to the other FPGA for de-aggregation back to the same set of streams.
Flexible & robust options – The single wire communication between the FPGAs is around 7.5 Mbps. The design is also configurable, the number of I2C/I2S busses and GPIOs and single wire protocol packet length can be adjusted. The single wire protocol between the FPGA is robust with error detection and retry features.

JONES, Ohio, July 3 (UPI) -- The saline wastewater -- a byproduct of the oil and gas industry -- that's injected deep into the ground under intense pressure and high rates of speed, is responsible for the surge of earthquakes in Oklahoma, according to a new study published this week in Science Magazine.
In recent years, Oklahoma has featured more earthquakes than anywhere else in the United States -- even more than California. So far in 2014, the Sooner State has served as host to some 240 small earthquakes, each with a magnitude of at least three.
Since 2008, more than 2,500 earthquakes have shook the grounds surrounding Jones, Okla., a small town smack dab in the middle of the state.
Most of the quakes are too small to pose any great risk to human health or property, but residents and environmentalists are still concerned.
"We wanted to figure out what the root cause was, what was actually causing the entire part of central Oklahoma to light up," said Katie Keranen, who experienced the Oklahoma quakes firsthand in 2011 and is now a geophysics professor at Cornell University.
Now Keranen and her colleagues have linked the swarms of quakes in middle America to the some 4,400 underground disposal wells, where wastewater -- the byproduct of the booming oil and gas industry's nonstop drilling -- deep into the ground.
The water used to break up and extract oil and gas from shale rock inevitably mixes with the valuable fuel commodity, forcing excavators to separate the oil and gas from the water back at surface level. Once removed, however, operators are left with a whole bunch of salty water laden with toxic chemicals.
"As part of the business model, you have to be able to dispose of these very large volumes of saline water," explained Bill Ellsworth, from the U.S. Geological Survey. "You can't treat it; you can't put it into the rivers. So, you have to inject it underground."
And it's this process that's apparently causing all the quakes.
"Once we had the earthquake locations and the fluid pressure increases in space and time, we were able to correlate those two together and figure out how much fluid pressure went up at each earthquake location from those wells," explained Keranen. "And what we were able to find is that the fluid pressure at the earthquakes went up enough to trigger the earthquakes in basically each case."
In addition to tweaking regulations to ensure these wells don't further aggravate fault lines, Keranen says oil and gas companies can do a better job of monitoring the pressure in their wells.
A number of states throughout the midwest are considering how to more closely supervise the growing oil and gas industry and mitigate potential negative consequences -- like earthquakes.

KENNARDS Groundcare has introduced a new ride-on slasher mower designed specifically for long grass, rough terrain and hillside mowing.
The 'Sumo', as it is aptly named, is built tough. Powered by a 21hp Kawasaki engine, a direct shaft drive to the cutting deck enables it to tackle and knock down long grass that up to now, a tractor and slasher attachment would have been required.
The Sumo is a four wheel drive giving it unique hill climbing ability, combined with four wheel steering that provides great manoeuvrability around trees and tight areas.
The 900mm mower deck is rear discharge with electric height adjustment. Additionally, the deck can slide out to the side an extra 150mm for close cutting along the edge or fence line of job sites.
The Sumo Mower is available for hire from Kennards specialist Groundcare Divisions in Melbourne and Sydney. It can be purchased from their sales arm, Work Smart Equipment based in Sydney.

Summer Streets 2008 (NYC)
Feeling remarkably similar to Bogota's Ciclovia, the New York City Department of Transportation held its first Summer Streets event on Saturday by opening 7 miles of city streets to pedestrians and bike traffic only. From 7 AM to 1 PM, roads were car-free from 72nd Street to the Brooklyn Bridge along Park Avenue. It was splendiferous.

Nottingham, Aug 8: Former Australia skipper Allan Border has backed under-fire Michael Clarke, saying he should continue to lead beyond the Ashes series.
Australia are fighting for survival in the ongoing fourth Test at Trent Bridge, being behind by 90 runs in their second innings with only three wickets in hand on Friday. They are on the verge of surrendering the Ashes for the fourth consecutive time on foreign soil after going down 1-2 in the series with emphatic losses in Cardiff and Birmingham and conceding a 331-run first innings deficit here at Trent Bridge after being bowled out for 60 in the morning session of day one.
Clarke's tenure as captain has come under intense scrutiny as he battles to rediscover his batting form. To make matters worse, Australia's batting order has fumbled repeatedly by England's relentless seam bowling attack.
Clarke maged scores of only 10 and 13 to take his series total to 117 runs in eight innings at an average of 16.71.
Calls of sacking Clarke continue to gain momentum in Australia, but Border was not one of them.
"I wouldn't (hope there'd) be any knee-jerk reactions on his situation," Border told cricket.com.au here on Friday.
"He'll know himself if he wants to keep going and if he's got the hunger for it. He looks like he's under pressure but that's understandable with his circumstances and the team's circumstances."
Border believes Clarke still has a role to play in the current team and his proven record gives him the right to call time on his career.
"And he wants to perform well. He's a very passiote bloke, he works hard at his game and he likes to be leading from the front like he has been," he said. "It hasn't quite worked out and I understand all that, but I don't think we're ready for that change just yet unless he thinks it's time. He deserves the opportunity to go out on his own terms."

MIAMI BEACH -- Most reactions to vaccines are minor -- pain at the injection site, swelling, and perhaps a short-lived fever. But many people -- even some healthcare providers -- incorrectly think such reactions preclude a future vaccination.
Partly to dispel such misconceptions and to guide physicians in how to deal with vaccine adverse reactions, experts have created a set of practice parameters.
In this InFocus™ segment, one of the chief editors of the guidelines, John Kelso, MD, of the Scripps Clinic in San Diego, discusses the issues with MedPage Today's Michael Smith.

"Distance and space are functions of speed and time." (Edward Abbey)
How is it possible to squeeze six weeks of wilderness, adventure, awe, beauty and freedom into the tight space of a blog column?
Still having to re-adapt myself to the weather, the atmosphere and, above all, the sky of Berlin, I try to recollect the memories from my recent trip to Morocco and get through all the several hundreds of images stored on my hard drive...Here a first, small selection of them: as always, what I've managed to photograph represents just a tiny fraction of what my eyes did see in reality.

Jordan Spietch loses 2016 Masters to Danny Willett
The 2016 Masters concluded on Sunday in Augusta, Georgia and the tournament will likely be remembered for a surprise turn of events. Heading into the back 9 of Day 4, American and defending champion Jordan Spieth was the clear favorite to win the tournament.
Jordan Spieth continues to lead 2016 Masters
Everyone that made the cut is through 18 holes on Day 3 at the 2016 Masters. That includes tournament leader Jordan Spieth who had a below-average day by his standards, largely on the basis of just two holes.
Jordan Spieth leads the 2016 Masters
The leader of the tournament remains American Jordan Spieth. He finishes Day 1 and Day 2 at a combined -4, good for a one-shot lead over Rory McIlroy who sits 2nd at -3.
