Superhydrophobic Coating Market Analysis, Share and Size,
Emerging Trends, Growth, Overview And Segment
Forecasts To 2024
The global Superhydrophobic Coating Market is expected to reach USD 11.2 million by 2024, according
to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Depleting freshwater reserves are one of the key concerns
driving the demand for self-cleaning technologies. Superhydrophobics are completely water-repellent,
fostering dirt to slide off from their surface at even slight elevation angles, which makes them ideal for
solar panels & similar applications.
Expanding consumer electronics industry in emerging economies and the subsequent rise in demand for
durable materials with complete waterproofing properties is another key driver for industry growth.
Leather and nonwoven textiles are also increasingly utilizing them to provide comfort to consumers
while eradicating washing cycles.
Browse Detail Report With TOC @
Anti-microbial accounted for over 41% of global volume in 2015. These coatings are witnessing high
demand from the medical sector for manufacturing dermatologically compatible, pathogen-resistant
surgical instruments, operating gowns & gloves along with other devices.
Further key findings from the report suggest:
The global Superhydrophobic Coating Market demand was over 50 tons in 2015 and is expected to
exceed 110 tons by 2024, growing at an estimated CAGR of 9.4% from 2016 to 2024
Market Research Reports and Insightful Company Profiles
Increasing demand for entirely water-repellent technologies is driving industry growth in consumer
electronics and textiles
Developments in the nanotechnology field are creating durable coatings with greater corrosion
resistance under duress, which in turn is boosting their demand in industrial applications
Carbon nanotubes were the leading raw materials used and accounted for over 33% of overall volume in
2015. In recent years, lightweight properties, high resistance to temperature changes and technological
compatibility have driven segment growth.
Gel-based silica is likely to witness significant growth on account of its economic viability and
processability. Gel-based silica witnessed high penetration in the electrical & electronics industries, as a
result of high demand for waterproof consumer electronics, printed circuit boards, solar panels, flexible
& other electronics
Demand in the medical & healthcare sector is anticipated to grow at a high CAGR of over 10% from 2016
to 2024. The coatings make all contact surfaces highly water resistant, which in turn reduces the risk of
infection or pathogens.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Following the shuttering of Levende East (for, um, maintenance work, a sign on the door says), there's more bad news for Old Oakland. Baia Food + Wine — chef Edward Higgins' modern Italian concept planning to move into 465 Ninth Street this fall — has pulled out, according to Cornish and Carey broker Stephen Rusher.
Nobody does big and sprawling like Alice Waters. In 2008, Waters set in motion Slow Food Nation, which lurched to life like a complex, multigeared machine with a score of moving arms.
North Oakland's Temescal Triangle strip mall swallowed another restaurant last week, when SR24 — the American comfort food place that opened in early 2010 — closed its doors for good.
Owners of Geta, the kiosk-size sushi bar just off Piedmont Ave., opened the doors to their izakaya last last month. B-Dama is in the old Messob Ethopian space at 4301A Piedmont Avenue, in the block anchored by Adesso.
In case you haven't made a run for chow mein lately, the Emeryville Public Market is in the midst of a makeover that could actually end up making the food court cool while retaining longtime food vendors who, well, aren't.

Mike's May Schedule
Monday, May 9th, 2011 | Book Signing, Radio, Speaking, Wrestling | No Comments
Mike Chapman has a heavy schedule of appearances in May.
May 9 – 4:30 pm, taping of The Culture Buzz show at KFMG studio, in Des Moines. Will be played May 18th from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Listen live here or listen to the archived show here, when it goes online.
May 16 – Speaking at the Noon Rotary in Waterloo, at the Five Sullivan Center. Mike will be talking about his book Triumph and Tragedy: The Inspiring Stories of Football Legends Fred Becker, Jack Trice, Nile Kinnick and Johnny Bright. Fred Becker is a 1914 graduate of East High who became Iowa's very first All-American football player in 1916, then died fighting in World War I. The newest Waterloo school will be named Fred H. Becker Elementary School.
May 17 – For the third straight year, Mike will be presenting a workshop for young writers at a Waterloo school. The event is coordinated by Donna Huff, wife of Don Huff, with whom Mike co-wrote the book SIDDENS! The purpose of the workshop is to inspire young students to get excited about history and writing.
May 19 — Mike will be one of the special guests at the Frank Gotch Statue Celebration (5-9 p.m.) and the Rustix Restaurant in Humboldt. A committee was formed six months ago with the goal of raising money for an 8-foot bronze statue of Frank to be placed at Bicknell Park in Humboldt. Gotch was world heavyweight wrestling champion from 1908 to 1915 and arguably the most popular athlete in America. Also in attendance will be Tom Brands, 1996 Olympic champion, three-time NCAA champion and head coach at Iowa; Bill Smith, 1952 Olympic champion and two-time NCAA champion at UNI; Jim Raschke, who was a big star in professional wrestling in the 1970s as Baron Von Raschke and was a national champion as an amateur AAU wrestler; Brad Rheingans, who won 8 national championships and made two Olympic teams as an amateur before becoming a professional star; Bob Steenlage, Iowa's first four-time state champion (from Britt) and an All-American at West Point, also the subject of the popular book Fighting Back; and Bruce Reimers, a native of Humboldt who played 10 years in the National Football League and was in a Super Bowl with the Cincinnati Bengals; there will also be a silent auction.
May 24 — Mike will journey to Dixon, Illinois, the hometown of Ronald Reagan, to present a program about his historical novel, Lowell Park, and to discuss his writing career. Ronald Reagan was a lifeguard at beautiful Lowell Park for seven straight summers, and Abe Lincoln served in the Illinois militia in the same spot 100 years earlier. The book combines those two facts. It has been sold to a Hollywood movie company and is in pre-production. The talk will take place at the Dixon Library from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and is open to the public. He will hold a book signing afterwards, with many of his 22 books available.
More information here: Dixon Public Library
May 27-28 – In Minneapolis, Mike will be one of several guests at the annual Edgar Rice Burroughs gathering called ECOF. Burroughs created Tarzan and many other great fictional characters. The gathering is open to the public and will feature tons of Tarzan and Burroughs related material, science fiction books, artwork, etc. There will be other authors and a famous comic artist, Mike Grell. It will be held at the Bloomington Airport Holiday Inn, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m both days. Mike has hosted three national Tarzan conventions in the past and has written books about Tarzan actors Herman Brix (aka Bruce Bennett) and Glenn Morris. He will have most of his 22 books for sale. The event is open to the public with no charge.

Reagan Birthday Celebration and Book Signing
Friday, February 4th, 2011 | Book Signing, Books, Radio | 1 Comment
Fort Des Moines is hosting a special celebration this Sunday at 2 p.m. in honor of Ronald Reagan's 100th birthday, and Mike Chapman has been invited to participate and hold a book signing. While working at WHO Radio in Des Moines, young Ron Reagan earned his commission at Fort Des Moines as a Second Lieutenant in 1937. Featured films include "Rear Gunner", "For God and Country", and "Jap Zero". There will be birthday cake and jelly beans! Tickets are $5 per person and are available at the door.
Mike is the author of 22 books, one of them an historical novel about Ronald Reagan as a lifeguard in the summer of 1932. The book, entitled Lowell Park, tells of a young Iowa graduate student, Jenny Brix, who gets a chance to travel back in time and meet Mr. Reagan when he was known as "Dutch." However, the time machine malfunctions and Jenny goes to the same very same location in 1832 — where a young Abe Lincoln is serving in the Black Hawk War. Jenny eventually winds up in 1932 and falls for Dutch, and then the trouble begins!

text: This is really only available to folks in the Chicago area. Sorry. I want our Chicago area members to be aware of this. I've made this offer before, but I think I need to bring it up once in a while. I am willing to drive to any school in the Greater Chicago area (50 mile redius of the Congress and Michigan) and do essentially the same lecture/demo/clinic that I did at the West Chester University Trumpet Festival - FREE OF CHARGE! I can do this because I will be paid by my school. I would be taking a pro-leave day (something I am allowed to do on a limited basis). Also, I am an endorsing artist of the New York Trumpet Compnay. The only stipulation is that this occurs during the school day. For evening performances, my standard rates must apply. Also, I would want to be able to sell CD's there. Oh yeah, I do require a free lunch. The school cafeteria is fine (I eat light). So, as the school year winds down a bit, if you are a Chicago area band director and need an easy lesson plan, let me come talk shop to your studetns. Believe me, I can bring all horns into the discussion. PM me, if you're interested. Thanks for reading! Nick

Walsrode Bird Park
World's largest bird park: first-class entertainment with sensational flying shows, a beautiful botanical garden and a blossoming sea of flowers from March to October.
In this park, one of the most beautiful in north Germany, you can admire over 4,200 birds from all the Earth's climate zones. There are water features with background music, historical fountains, themed gardens, waterfalls, large aviaries and tropical greenhouses.
Highlights include penguin feeding time, cooing over the babies in the bird rearing station, the entertaining and educational indoor show 'Das Ei des Kolumbus' (Columbus's Egg) and the spectacular flying demonstration, the only one of its kind in Europe.
What's more, this zoological garden is gaining an ever greater reputation for horticulture. From March onwards, you'll be overwhelmed by the sight of millions of flowering bulbs in myriad colours, and by the time the 100,000 tulips are in bloom, you could be forgiven for thinking you're in Holland.
During May and June, when the rhododendrons and azaleas are in flower, the park is a riot of colours. Then in the summertime a heady perfume fills the air, as thousands of roses, the kitchen garden, the scented garden, the stone garden and the fuchsia garden all hit their peak.

That's a very good question and all credit to Tina Turner for asking.
I've written before about romance scams and how some unscrupulous individuals or groups of scammers will play on their victim's feelings in order to profit financially from them.
After reeling in their victims with lies, lack of information and deceit they will then find any excuse to solicit money – the hospital fees, cost of a visa, air fare to come and see you, etc.
I believe that the scammers who prey on other people's emotions are near the lowest of the low, I guess that's why
.oO(Joan Jett, the singer featured in that video didn't half look good in those tight leathers) 🙂
The above clip is from RomanceScam, a site which hopes to 'out' the romance scammers.

As my time as a first time pregnant lady is winding down, I've been thinking about how interesting this journey has been for both me and CJ. I'm sure there are WAY more than five things that have been awesome about this experience like how close it's brought me and my husband.
How my friends and especially my friends who are new moms have rallied around me.
How my parents are beyond delighted to bring a new line of blood- their first grandchild into the world.
But the 5 things that were off the top of my head about why this has been such a great pregnancy are more physical.
#1. I really think in the scheme of things that I haven't gained that much weight. About 40/45 lbs total and I lost just about that much a couple of years ago when I did my cleanse of no sugar, no wheat, no dairy, no gluten for 90 days. If I did it before I can do it again, right?
#2. Because I haven't gotten that "BIG" I've only had to buy new bras and a few new tops. I haven't bought one stitch of maternity clothing and I'm 37 weeks pregnant! Remember I also have some of my old "fat clothes" to wear from my pre-cleanse days. So I just wear skirts now- I did size out of my jeans a couple of months ago-we covered that in "It Had to Happen Sooner or Later".But so what that's why God made leggings! Plus it's been so hot in both NYC and still so much in SoCal that I've not needed to don anything more than a sun dress or nice flowing skirt.
|These are the Maternity Daisy Dukes I couldn't believe exist!
#3. I've not had the aching back so many women complain about. Sure I had a few days of Baby Bean thinking it was cute to press on a sciatic nerve and that damn near killed me, but at the most I had it for like 72 hours. That's nothing in the scheme of things. This woman at my hypnobirthing class said she's been aching for months. Poor thing!
#4. I haven't had hemorrhoids. I've heard stories about those bad boys and from what I've been told and the research I've done on my own it doesn't sound or look pretty. No sir! I also didn't get the crazy random hair growth in places no woman should be growing hair. I also, fortunately, never had my "inney" turn magically into an "outey" My belly button is as it's always been. Thank goodness.
#5 All of this stuff, even the yucky parts like extreme gas, edema (swelling of my hands and feet), leg cramps, a touch of carpel tunnel, constipation, nausea, crazy-ass heartburn, craving pickles etc…has provided me with challenges that I feel I've overcome gracefully…as gracefully as one can who pees a little each time she sneezes. But I feel like I've earned this baby- does that make sense? Like I paid my dues and the final installment will be when I bring this child into the world in water completely drug free.
|Headlining at Caroline's On Broadway- getting one last BIG show in before Baby Bean arrives
The beauty of all of this is that as a comedian I've got an entire new set- I mean this whole experience has provided me with a ton of new material and abook. And the BEST part about ALL of it is that in the end I'm bringing a beautiful healthy baby into the world. Who already is SO completely loved it's sick.

Thanks for dropping by bburi kitchen!
We started this project to explore and share local, seasonal Korean ingredients with the world.
Thanks for dropping by bburi kitchen!
We started this project to explore and share local, seasonal Korean ingredients with the world.
"Bburi" means root—we love Korean food, and wanted to get to the roots of Korean cuisine. Through this website, we want to share what we learn with you while we travel, talk to farmers, fishers and vendors, and research the history of ingredients. We also share recipes so you can try things out at home. Unless otherwise specified, all recipes are written by Seoyoung, blog posts are written by Sonja, and ingredient pages are written by the both of us. We both take the photos, with a little help from friends like Sunghoon Cho. 🙂
Seoyoung is available for private cooking classes and consulting in Seoul. Contact email@example.com for more information.
Korean cuisine has a history as long as its people. Since times were often hard, our ancestors had to get creative to eke nutrition and flavor from the roots and greens they foraged. They developed seasonal fermentation techniques to keep food through long winters. They took advantage of the surrounding oceans, rich with fish and seaweed and shellfish. The story of Korean food is the story of our geography and history and people.
Like a growing number of others here in Korea, we're uncomfortable with some of the changes in the Korean diet over the last 60 years. Some of those changes come from a legacy of 20th century war and colonization. Other changes, like a spike in sugar consumption, are problems that all modernizing cultures face. This 50-year study by National Geographic shows that the percentage of calories from sugar and fat grew most in South Korea of all Asian countries—more surprisingly, the South Korean diet has grown more similar to the world average than that of any other Asian country.
But we were even more surprised when we realized there were so many local fruits, vegetables and seafoods that we'd never even heard of. So here we are, after prepping for 6 months and quitting two day jobs (sorry umma!), on a journey to discover the roots of our native food culture and share what we learn with you!
Seoyoung Jung
Seoyoung has enjoyed cooking and feeding her friends since she was nine and hasn't stopped. After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America in 2008, she apprenticed at Michelin star restaurants in NYC, returning to her homeland five years ago as an R&D chef to start building up her knowledge of Korea's ingredients, recipes and food culture.
Sonja Swanson
Sonja came to Korea to learn about her cultural heritage—and as one year turned to five, she's still in love with the language, culture and, of course, food. Sonja studied Urban Studies and Education at Stanford, and worked in corporate advertising here in Seoul before quitting to work on creative projects and learn more about Korean food.

We couldn't have started bburi kitchen without the help of many dear friends.
First, creative soul and dear friend Jacqui Gabel, who was originally slated to start this project with us but was called home for grad school. You can read her beautiful stories about food and life at Something for Sunday.
Next, our all-around handy friend Sunghoon Cho, who set up the hosting, email addresses and more for this site. He's also accompanied us on several trips and his gorgeous photos grace the site here and there. View his portfolio here and follow him on Instagram, too.
bburi kitchen wouldn't look nearly as good without the wisdom, creativity and patience of our designer, Jiyun Avery Ju, co-founder of Mutehouse. She's guided us through the process of branding bburi, coming up with our themes, fonts, logo and more. You can see what she's up to on Instagram.
Our first foray into video content was headed up by filmmaker Sam Kiehoon Lee, founder of Sangsu Pictures and a great believer in our ability to get through a full day of shooting even when we were ready to give up. You can see the results of that day and Sam's beautiful editing work here.
Also many thanks to the friends and family who have given us feedback and encouragement: Jongmin Jung, Heerak Chang, Junwon Chang, Jongcheol Jung, Mirinae Suh, Youngmin Jung, Seop Kim, Chunhee Lee, Jooyoung Baek, Eunjeong Huh, Kyobo Shin, Sunghee Jeon, Loren and Hedian Swanson, Gichang Cho, Samsun Lee, Yaeri Song, Violet Kim, Youngjoo Lee, Jake Kwon and Alice Rhee.
Much love and many thanks,
Seoyoung & Sonja

I admire Alena's charisma and energy, she gives out everything on the ice. But that program... I cringe when I look at the multiple cheap posing and so called 'choreography'. I also do not think she is that fast. Her footwork looks heavy and laboured.
I cannot understand Korpi's scoring. 55 for 3T-2T, 3R with turnout and a single axel? Really?? And that scores higher than Haruka's more difficult, clean and lovely program? Higher than Rachel? Almost as high as Biryukova, who had a 3-3 and 3R and by any means is not a plain skater? Sorry, but it starts to be very annoying. She does not have any particular 'signature' element - her jumps, spins, footwork are just average. If she had executed the 2A, judges would have not hesistated to put her in 3rd, very close to the top 2. And it does not seem right. JMO
My placements:
Alena (yes, although I hate that program)
Adelina (I adore her extension and I like the program very much. But she must nail that combo)

Petaluma, California
Basalt, water, plants, mixed media L.D.30″
Site 350 sq. ft.; Design + Creation
As part of a 3 acre landscape the owner developed one quarter of an acre into a garden inspired by the Butchart Gardens in Canada. She called it Le Petit Bouchard. In the piece that Biaggi created for this garden she continues her exploration of opposites and the border where they meet using a minimalist pallet of only two types of plants. The colors are opposite- green and red- and the stones, reflecting light and holding water, are set in a circle of black pebbles in opposition to the converging slate pathways.

This is an activity suitable for young and old.
Test your map reading skills. Sign up take the map and clues, off you go to solve the puzzle.
Can be done individually but much better crack done as a group.
Orienteering in Ireland is very popular with numerous clubs located throughout the country.
Orienteering requires navigational skills using a map or compass to navigate from point to point in diverse and usually unfamiliar terrain, and normally moving at speed.
Orienteering takes place in a number of outdoor places, from towns and parks to forests and open mountain. You get out into the countryside, often to places you wouldn't otherwise visit.
It is an easy and painless way of staying fit or getting into shape. Your physical effort often goes almost unnoticed as you read your map and follow your route. For the good athlete and navigator there is the unique challenge of finding your way over complex and rough terrain whilst running at speed.
It really is an adventure sport for all ages and all abilities, from children under the age of ten to veterans of well over seventy! Orienteer with your friends and family and share your experiences afterwards.
Available as mini orienteering for beginners and for the more advanced a challenging mountain course through country lanes, mature woodlands and low lying hills. Designed to test the stamina of mind and body.
For the Irish Orienteer it is a great way to keep active and enjoy the great outdoors.

Abi Ocia – Running
We are completely aware that there are probably too many alternative soul artists out there, probably due to the fact that's a genre that now is trending big. But we promise you: the time you'll spend listening to Abi Ocia won't be wasted at all. Her debut single Running is a slow-burning jam built around smooth multi-layered electronic textures that unravel around enticing beats, creating a depth, grey-tinged soundscape over which stands out the amazing voice of the West London native songstress.
Speaking on the track Abi says: "'Running' definitely felt like a step up in my development as a songwriter. I wanted to explore an inner dialogue with myself, following a journey of seeking out something greater than what you are used to, even if it means purging yourself of things you hold dear."

Kenneth G. Moore, Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation/
TITLE: Director, San Francisco Bay Area
FUNDING AREAS: Bay Area land conservation and science learning
CONTACT: Visit PeopleFinder for email and phone number (paid subscribers only)
IP TAKE: As the son of foundation's cofounders, the younger Moore has been a trustee at the organization since its inception, but has also pursued his own career. As a family member, his role at the foundation is protected for life, and his influence is most definitely solidified for years to come.
PROFILE: The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation's Bay Area portfolio is focused on two areas: land conservation and funding for science and technology museums. Since its inception in 2000, the foundation has donated heavily in these areas. For instance, its work with local land conservation has preserved an area twice the size of the city of San Francisco and has made numerous grants to local science and technology museums, including the California Academy of Sciences, The Exploratorium (where Ken Moore sits on the board) and the East Bay's Chabot Space & Science Center.
For those seeking grants, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation is a bit difficult to navigate, as it doesn't accept unsolicited proposals. Instead, the foundation finds and researches organizations that have had an impact in their focus areas and requests that they submit detailed proposals.
Although Ken Moore has been an integral part of the foundation for awhile, and sits on the board, he's only more recently joined the day-to-day staff in the role of Program Director for the San Francisco Bay Area after 24 years of experience in the semiconductor industry where he held various positions in operations planning and control, computer systems development, and supply chain and logistics management at Signetics Corporation and Phillips Semiconductors. His education includes a degree in business administration.
It remains to be seen long-term if different things will catch Moore's eye as a staff member rather than just as a board member (which he also remains). In terms of science and technology funding, the foundation is directed toward projects that help create "a scientifically literate public, instilling appreciation and understanding of science in children and their families." Recent grants for science museums have reflected this educational direction.
For instance, the foundation has contributed to several engagement projects at The Exploratorium (where Moore sits on the board), helping to expand the museum's reach with children. The foundation recently provided a $300,000 grant for the museum to create social media applications that let users explore and discover science remotely. The first app, Color Uncovered, allowed users to experiment with optics. It was a huge success, being downloaded more than a million times. The museum recently released a second app, Sound Uncovered, which encourages users to explore the science of sound. The foundation also contributed a grant of almost $500,000 to The Exploratorium to help establish the Tinkering Studio, which allows museum patrons to conduct their own experiences and construct their own robots and do other science-related projects when they visit. The Studio is one of the newest features in the new building.
The Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park received a grant supporting the museum's teen internship program, and the Children's Discovery Museum in San Jose received support to expand its youth discovery program. The foundation also was instrumental in funding Bill Nye's ClimateLab at the Chabot Center.
In the land conservation area, the foundation leans toward projects of conservation and preservation, tracking the number of acres conserved, and protecting a variety of habitat types to provide connectivity throughout the region. Another important point is that the foundation looks for projects that employ science-based conservation planning. There are several planning frameworks that receive priority in the selection process, including the Upland Habitat Goals and the Bay Lands Goals. Much of its funding in the past few years has been funneled into two projects: the Resources Legacy Fund and the Living Landscape Initiative. The Resources Legacy Fund is a grantmaking entity, and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and the David and Lucile Packard Foundation have both provided a great deal of resources to it. The Living Landscape Initiative is another project the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation has been involved with, providing $15 million to help five area conservation groups bolster fundraising and secure properties. The ultimate key for grant seekers is that their plan provide a clear picture of how it will contribute to long-term conservation.

So on Wednesday we bought a tub and today, thanks to a friend, we got it home. Chaucer is enjoying it already! Well, ok, maybe not enjoying it. He got in it on his own, but then decided he was stuck. 🙁
One of the reasons we chose this tub is because it feels huge! That picture doesn't really capture how big/deep the tub is unless you know how big Chaucer is. 😉 I had to test it out, too. It's pretty sweet! Now if only we could do something about those curtains…
The tub is made of this new patented material by Kohler called Vikrell. It's a plastic material, but much thicker and more durable than polycarbonate or fiberglass. It almost feels like metal. We were super excited to find it because our other options were cheap plastic or porcelain on steel that could chip or rust. We found it at Lowe's. Home Depot had nothing of the sort. Plus 1 for Lowe's.
Andrew has been working on the bathtub plumbing all evening. In the process he sent me to Lowe's twice to get copper pipe things and I'm happy to report that I got the right thing both times! Also, I have to admit I was slightly worried that he might burn the house down.

West Papua in danger of losing independence struggle
Resistance leaders in the troubled Indonesian province of West Papua say they are losing their 50 year struggle for independence because the Indonesian authorities have stepped up their policy of persecution.
However, the Indonesian government says it has a right to restore order over what it claims to be sovereign territory.
Independent journalists are rarely given access to Western Papua, but a team from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation managed to film undercover.
The BBC's Duncan Kennedy reports.

text: I was in the South End today and made a slight detour for some chocolates at Aroa and they are GONE. Stripped-to-the-walls no-more-sign CLOSED. I just checked their website and it doesn't load; according to a Yelp post it looks like they've been closed a few weeks. I'd like to think that they'll open somewhere else (that location was terrible - easy to miss and just a little out of the way - a block towards Flour would have been much better), but the dead website isn't a good sign. Very sad - I thought their chocolates were wonderful and the staff was always very helpful and well-informed. Does anyone know anything?

R.S. Deeren wants to help you create compelling, dynamic characters in your writing, and understand not only your characters, but the real world individuals who may, most times, influence them. Loving or hating a character is only the first step of effective, aware writing. To fully understand, to empathize, with a character's motivations is the next, deeper, stage of the writing process. And we're gonna start with the bullies,how we come to understand the full spectrum of their motivations and humanity. Room 513, 3:45-5 p.m.
Graphic Novel Script Writing: 101
Alverne Ball takes you from inception to completion: comic script writing 101. Teens will learn basic scripting lingo and page layout techniques in order to craft a compelling comic script. Room 837A, 3:45-5 p.m.
Improv for Storytellers
According to Jeremy Babcock, everyone has a story to tell and improv is an outlet to share in a space free from judgment. In addition to taking part in a number of theatre games and exercises, we will work as a group to develop stories and characters that just might inspire future writing projects. Everyone is invited to actively participate in the process of discovering fresh, new ideas in a group setting. Room 835C, 3:45-5 p.m.

Conaway Center, 12:15-1:30 p.m.
Revise the Psalm: A Celebration of Gwendolyn Brooks
Gwendolyn Brooks was a Chicago-based poet who inspired writers and poets of all ages with her words and community activism. This reading from REVISE THE PSALM is a discussion on Brooks' influence on youth with four of the book's contributors and co-editor. Room 504, 12:15-1:30 p.m.

|BC Place Map
|May 12/17 7:30 PM - May 12/17 10:30 PM
|$35 - $280 Buy Tickets
U2 will return to BC Place on May 12th with U2: The Joshua Tree Tour 2017, in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the band's classic album. Each show will include a performance of The Joshua Tree in its entirety, with support from one of a number of special guests including Mumford & Sons.TICKETS ARE SOLD OUT, but..... Rock 101 has got lots!
-Listen to Willy In The Morning May8-11 as they award a pair of tickets every day.
-Then on Friday May 12th, Rock 101 is giving away a pair of U2 tickets EVERY HOUR (6am–4pm) to this sold out show.
Released to universal acclaim on March 9th 1987 and featuring hit singles "With Or Without You","I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" and "Where The Streets Have No Name", The Joshua Tree was U2's first #1 album in the U.S., topping the charts globally including the U.K. and Ireland, selling in excess of 25 million albums worldwide, and catapulting Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr "… from heroes to superstars" (Rolling Stone). Time Magazine put U2 on its cover in April 1987, proclaiming them "Rock's Hottest Ticket" in a defining year for the band that saw their arena dates roll into stadium shows to accommodate escalating demand - setting them on course to become one of the greatest live acts in the world today.
The 12 months that followed saw the band create now-iconic moments: the traffic-stopping Grammy Award-winning music video on the roof of a Los Angeles liquor store, winning a BRIT Award and two Grammys - including Album of the Year - their first of 22 received to date, distinguishing U2 as the most awarded rock band in Grammy history. U2's fifth studio album The Joshua Tree was produced by Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, and featured iconic artwork which cemented the career of photographer and director Anton Corbijn. Recording took place in Dublin at Windmill Lane Studios and Danesmoate, the house which subsequently became bassist Adam Clayton's home.
U2: The Joshua Tree Tour 2017 will kick off in Vancouver on 12th May for a run of dates across North America and Europe, and will include U2's first ever U.S. festival headline appearance at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival this summer, as well as a hometown show in Dublin's Croke Park on 22nd July.

A recently discovered tomb found in Egypt is described on the Al Ahram Weekly website.
Archaeologists from the Katholicke Universiteit Leuven working at the Middle-Kingdom (2066-1650 BC) tomb of Uky, a top government official, have discovered an intact tomb chamber, complete with funerary goods.
While removing the debris out of a rock-cut shaft found inside the chamber of Uky's tomb, the archaeologists came across a huge limestone block indicating that a major find was imminent, in line with the ancient Egyptian custom of blocking their burial chambers with such a barrier. Through a hole in the block, they could see what they described as a beautifully-carved wooden statue of a man with large, staring eyes. After only an hour the block had been removed, and the team discovered a small but intact chamber richly stuffed with well-preserved wooden objects and containing a
decorated sarcophagus.
"Even though the burial took place more than 4,000 years ago, the colours on the painted objects are very fresh, and there was even no dust covering them," mission director Harco Williams said.
To see all three photographs that accompany this piece, click on the single image shown on the page. All three photographs will then be shown in a new window.
Not wishing to labour the Egyptological point, but anyone interested in Tutankhamun might be interested in this useful review of an exhibition in Cairo which features the contents of the Pharaoh's mummy wrappings (with photographs).

*UPDATE- I have had a few people tell me they've had trouble printing this pattern the right size. I going to give the measurements so when you print it you can double check the size and adjust if needed. The bottom edge should measure around 7 3/4 inches. From top to bottom should be 5 1/4 inches. You can also cut the band to 16 X 5 inches to make it easier. Hope that helps :)

Big News!
So having said all that you can only imagine my excitement when I was asked to be a part of the Threadbanger relaunch! At first I wasn't sure if it was legit, so I contacted Corinne and she confirmed it was real...so I squealed. After my phone conversation with a gal at Next New Networks who is working with TB- I squealed. The day the announcement video went up- I squealed! There has been a lot of excited squealing happening around here :)
Anyway, the way things work is there are 5 core channels and we take turns posting a Monday Haul video on the TB channel. Then sometime that week we post a corresponding video on our personal channels using the items we showed in the haul for a tutorial. I think it's going to be a great way to showcase more DIYers and give viewers the opportunity to subscribe to the channels they like. There will also be some viewer submitted videos and editor picks from Corinne.
I'm so thankful that I get to be a part of a channel that has meant so much to me over the past several years! It's really helped to encourage and inspired me to come up with better tutorials. Also thank you to everyone who has supported Whitney Sews! Without you all I would never have made it this far!
I think that's all the news for now...off to work on some new videos...

Yesterday I spent the entire day sewing! Have to have something to keep me busy inside since it's so hot outside! I made two pillow shams using a vintage Smurf sheet (they are super cute!), I finished a whale shaped zipper bag also using vintage sheets for material, and I started a paper pieced string wall quilt (using my latest tutorial) to use up a lot of my fabric scraps. All of these items will be for sale in my handmade etsy store Generation Gap once I get them photographed.
Speaking of my store...I currently have 2 cuffs listed made using this tutorial. I had so much fun that I kept making them :) I also listed the newsboy hat I made in another tutorial. Lastly, I have 2 wrap skirts I need to photograph and list. They are based off the wrap skirt tutorial for a while back.
Well that's what I've been up to...I would love to hear what you all are working on!

Make It and Love It
On Noodlehead I found a great post that has photos showing sewing supplies and each item is numbered. Then below the photos is the item name and a short description on some. It's a great post to look at if you are new to sewing and don't know what supplies you need or if you've heard the name of an item several times but aren't sure what it is...now you can look at the photos and find out :)
So go check out these two blogs and let me know what you think. Also let me know if your 'to make' list doubles after looking at the blogs for awhile...I think mine just did...

Where should I place the Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait in my home?
I was wondering how much to use, and what I should put it in without buying stations. I have a 900 sq ft. home with a full basement that I am finishing. One floor with three bedrooms, a small kitchen, a living room and a bathroom. Where should I place the bait? Thank you
According to the products label, Gourmet Ant Bait can be used to make small, pea sized placements and/ or long thin lines in areas where ants are a problem. Place the bait on a horizontal surface near ant activity. Place bait under food cabinets, sinks, stoves, refrigerators, food storage areas, attics, garages, basements, storage areas, closets, etc. Place on exterior windowsills and in doorways to help prevent entry of ants. You can put on pieces of paper or on jar lids to keep the bait off of surfaces.

Today on my blog I am posting the first of a series. The series is called Virtuous Woman and it is inspired by all the women that I know that are multi-talented, smart, and wonderfully kind and good in so many ways.
Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. (Proverbs 31:10)
This first painting needed a title and as I thought and painted and painted and thought, a song soon began repeating itself in my mind. It was a song that was an anthem for women in the 1970's as women attempted to combat social and cultural inequalities. I was fresh out of high school back then and was able to witness that bit of history. Although my interpretation is a bit different, I think the song title lends itself to a perfect title for this painting.
How can I describe today's woman? Oh wait, that's why I am painting this series for! Each painting will be an exploration of the many facets in a woman's life. "I am Woman" is the opening statement. A woman and her world. I painted the world like a halo that crowns her head, symbolic for the angel that she is.
This is an 8" X 10" painting and is available for purchase, $250 plus $5 shipping in US. Contact me for info.
Original traditional, impressionistic and whimsical paintings in acrylic or watercolor medium by artist Catherine Darling Hostetter. Works on canvas, gessoed board and watercolor paper.

Unanswered: Filter on Split form
Good morning everybody, I have been building an Access and get into some "trouble" with the filter feature.
I've got a split form in which I need to filter two columns on cmd button click.
The first filter is simply because it is written by the User, the second filter instead is "automatically" and must be retrieved from Select query. This query has only one column where there could be up to 10 values so all this values needs also to be filtered.
Hope that this is understandable

What's the problem? Can you at least provide information on the table(s) and columns involved? How is the query (or the filter) assembled?
If you question is about how combine two conditions, the answer is that you join both conditions with an AND operator: <Condition1> AND <Condition2>
Name Like 'A*" AND DateOfBith >= '2000-01-01'
(Name Like 'A*' OR Name Like 'B*' OR Name Like 'C*') AND (DateOfBith >= '2000-01-01')

Disclaimer: I do not own Tin Man or the quote I used for a summary.
Author's Note: I should imagine that most, if not all of you, have played a game like this. Our particular version came about because our childhood home had an excess of carpet that mom would, from time to time, get professionally cleaned. Given the placement of said carpeting, we would then have the choice to be stuck with little more than the basement (or outside), or be trapped up in our rooms for the hours it took for the carpet to dry. Well, relatively trapped, one could always jump off the veranda roof – and then be stuck downstairs. That is, of course, unless one could make it through most of the rooms on the ground floor and up the stairs without stepping on the carpet…and voila, a game was born (among others, I sometimes wonder how the banister survived our childhood, it was never particularly sturdy).
Wyatt Cain was very confused. All he'd been trying to do was take a quiet, stroll-like security sweep through the palace. He found them calming, giving him some time to think and inspect the Guard all in one go. And it had been, too, right up until he'd turned a corner just in time to be blindsided by a princess with rather impressive tackling skills.
The astonished Tin Man landed flat on his back while the unexpectedly solid weight of a certain curly haired, blue eyed princess knocked the breath out of him. And then she began wiggling in a manner that was extremely disconcerting. Perhaps even alarming. Thus the confusion. He attempted to gather his wits to comment, only to have DG breath into his ear, "I can't touch the floor."
Cain blinked. "Uh, w-what?" he stuttered, wondering if he'd hit his head in the fall. He could have sworn she'd said-
"I can't touch the floor," the princess repeated, "It's the Crack in the O.Z., if I touch it I'll fall and die and I'm on my last resurrection."
And now the Tin Man was both baffled and seriously concerned for the princess' mental wellbeing. Out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of one of the pageboys leaping from a nearby banister. The boy caught hold of one of the royal banners and slid down to land precariously on one of the hall tables. He managed, with quite a notable show of agility, to keep his balance, steading himself before settling back on his haunches to survey his surroundings. Cain made a mental note to report him to the head of the Guard – for recruitment.
A little doll spun above the Tin Man's head as he realised, "This is a game, isn't it."
The princess lying on him gave him a dazzling smile that was somewhat blinding from a mere distance of three inches away. "Can't Touch the Floor," DG confirmed, "got to traverse the Crack in the O.Z. and make it to the Throne Room without falling in. You get three resurrections to the beginning if you touch the floor, after that you are out of the game."
Cain, to his surprise, actually knew this game. Only he'd called it 'Getting to Higher Ground Without Getting Soaked' when the cabin had flooded. A tiny, unacknowledged thought wondered why sh-they hadn't asked him to join. Then again, he considered, glancing to where the pageboy had apparently gotten himself trapped, any attempt by the Tin Man would likely be severely detrimental to the furniture. Besides, it was not like he…could think at all given that the princess had started wriggling again.
"Darn it," DG huffed, "I don't see how I can get off of you without touching the floor."
"Cain, do you think you could get up with me on top of you?"
Swallowing heavily, the Tin Man forced his oddly uncooperative thoughts in order and set about fixing his-the princess' current dilemma. Sitting up with DG in his lap turned out to be easy enough; getting his feet under him without setting her down, however, was a whole other matter. Finally, with a grunt of effort, he managed to heft himself to his feet, the princess held firmly away from the 'dangerous' floor.
"Woohoo!" DG crowed, looping an arm around his neck, "Zip Line, to the next piece of furniture with a means of egress," she commanded gleefully. Smiling she added, "Can't have you taking me all the way that would be cheating."
Face red with exertion, the Tin Man moved to comply.
From behind them came a yelp of surprise as the pageboy decided to emulate the princess' tactics on the next unsuspecting passerby. It was the odd strangled gurgling sound following the resounding thud that truly caught Cain's attention, however. Casting a glance over his shoulder, the Tin Man realized he might have to reconsider the ashen faced youth's recommendation to the Guard…
…given that he'd just flattened the Queen.

ONE man made the difference at the Stadium of Light last night as Gus Poyet conceded: "Eden Hazard was unplayable!"
The Belgian scored two superb individual goals and was a danger every time he got ball in Sunderland's 4-3 defeat to Chelsea.
And Poyet was quick to laud the brilliance of the Belgian.
"He was amazing," he said
"I don't ever remember a player playing against a side I have managed as well as he did – no matter what we did we couldn't cope with him.
"It's as good as a performance as I've seen from anyone all season.
"We tried everything – we man-marked him, we put two up against him, three, tried other tactics but there was nothing we could do."
Even so, Poyet enjoyed the challenge he faced against one of the teams which will surely be contesting the Premier League title at the end of the season.
"I loved coming up against my former club because that is why I want to be here at Sunderland – to be involved in games like these against the best teams in the world.
"And we acquitted ourselves well on the night – it was an exceptional game of football.
"There were great challenges between Chelsea's defence and our attack – between the likes of John Terry and Gary Cahill and Fabio Borini and John Altidore and I enjoyed watching that.
"This is a different Sunderland team from the one that I took over and I'm convinced that if we play like that all season then we will stay up."
