Toyota to open automated driving test site in Michigan
Autonomous testing is taking off around the country, and Michigan is not missing out on the action. Notably, the University of Michigan has its MCity testing grounds, while another self-driving test facility, the American Center for Mobility, has broken ground at the historic former Willow Run manufacturing site. Now Toyota will have its own autonomous testing facility in southeastern Michigan, near Toledo, Ohio. Today, the Toyota Research Institute (TRI) has announced it will open a 60-acre tes

Although I am much better than last week my inspiration levels are very low and I'm not feeling like crafting. I miss David coming home every day at 5:45, cuddling him, feeding him and waking him up for school in the mornings. There is such a quietness in the air although he never spoke!
Here he is on Monday morning after spending his first weekend at home, we were getting ready to take him back again. His dad praying for him for the week.
And I made some cupcakes... this one is for David
So, I do have one card to share that was made as a case of my crafting friend Susanne's card. A layered college card, using Scrap basket bits and pieces. Love that when a card comes together.

The Sports photography era began with technological photography advances, the illustrated press growth, in addition to the associated explosion of mass sports during the later part of 19th and first part of the 20th centuries. The term typically refers to photographic reporting of organized sports competition leaning towards mass-media dissemination, however has additionally been employed to include all forms of photography for leisure and athletic activities such as ice skating,
auto, other motorized racing and picnicking when photographed by professional
and amateurs photographers both for personal and public display.

from the long lens.
The primary use for sports photography is editorial objectives; dedicated sports
photographers most often are employed by or work free lance for newspapers, dedicated sports magazines or major wire agencies.
Camera bodies preferred for the today's sport photographer are the ones with fast
autofocusing capability with a fast
frame rate (most often 8 fps or quicker). The pair of most prevalent camera bodies used by professional photographers shooting sports are the Canon 1D-cameras and the Nikon D3

These big apertures are necessary for many reasons:
They render backgrounds severely out of focus (bokeh), consequently creating improved isolation of your subjects. These lenses have the ability to focus faster because increased light penetrating the lens - extremely important for fast-moving action. These faster shutter speeds are then used for freezing the action.

Article about Fillchoice® room on CPhI Magazine
23 May, 2017
SHOW DAILY - CPhI North America Magazine, 16 May 2017
Fillchoice® room: a compounding pharmacy within a bag"
Fillchoice® room is the first medical device that provides a compounding pharmacy incorporated in a bag and it was shortlisted as "best innovation" for the Packaging Category of the CPhI Pharma Awards in 2014.
It is a new concept of compounding pharmacy: you can manipulate and reconstitute the drug directly in the bag, with no need for dedicated clean rooms.This device replaces the standard practice of drugs manipulation in hospital pharmacies under a laminar flow hood: the drug can be manipulated and reconstituted in a completely closed system, next to the patients' bed and directly administered.
Fillchoice® room widely fits in the use of compounding pharmacy, drug reconstitution and delivery systems and therefore will find utility in many pharmaceutical companies, hospitals and clinics. It is suitable for any drug (liquid, gel or powder) in glass or plastic vial that needs to be compounded or reconstituted.
Unlike other reconstitution systems, it doesn't provide only a closed system: it guarantees 100% isolation to the drug preparation system, as it works like a sterile "clean room". Therefore it is safe for the manipulation of dangerous drugs, such as antitumoral drugs. It eliminates the risks of caregivers' exposure to dangerous drugs, such as toxicity, carcinogenicity and infertility. During the preparation and administration of the drug to the patient, it eliminates the risk of sometimes lethal medication errors.
Fillchoice® room is very flexible, as it can be customized in terms of drug type, solvent, volume and vial size. Volume of the solvent and varying bag materials are available.
The new version Fillchoice® room dose is now available: thanks to a special dosing system it allows the dosed reconstitution of drugs, in accordance with the doctor prescription.

Interview at CPhI Russia showing our Needleless Connector NIP®
02 Dic, 2016
Finally online the interview at CPhI Russia 2015, showing how NIP®, our needlefree connector, works.
"NIV® and NIP®: the first Needlefree Connectors with Hermetic Closure"
29 Nov, 2016
From MEDICA Magazine - 10.08.16:
"Haemopharm is a pioneer company in the manufacturing and commercialization of flexible bags, connectors, delivery systems and biotechnology products for many different medical areas.
Haemopharm is very attentive to the market tendencies and international regulations that are moving towards needlefree policies and contamination-free connections to prevent accidental needle-sticks and infections to caregivers and patients.
Haemopharm invented and patented the first new needlefree technology that not only enables the use of the syringe without the needle, but also provides a hermetic closure, minimizing contaminations and increasing the safety.
This needlefree technology has been applied both on vials and bags.
NIV® (Needlelss Injection Vial) is a new closure for vials which contain injectable medications that require reconstitution.
NIV® has a hermetic seal, perforable with a needlefree syringe, which automatically closes again when the syringe is pulled out. This device replaces both standard vials used with normal syringe with needle, and needle free vial connectors or adaptors.
The immediately reclosable seal also avoids the back flow effect, preventing unwanted aerosol or leakage of the drug, which are critical in case of toxic drugs.NIV® has won the CPhI Awards in 2012 as "Best Innovation of the year".
NIP® (Needleless Injection Port) is the new needlefree valve for any bag containing liquids. Thanks to NIP® the bag can be easily accessed through the luer of the syringe in order to take out its content or to add to the solution active principles or other substances. NIP® can substitute any injection point and widely fits in many different therapeutic applications, such as Pharmacy compouding and reconstitution, I.V. solutions, clinical nutrition, dialysis, oncology, etc.."
"Cerebrovascular pattern improved by ozone autohemotherapy: an entropy-based study on multiple sclerosis patients"
28 Nov, 2016
From "INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF NEURAL SYSTEMS - World Scientific Publishing Company ":
"Ozone major autohemotherapy is effective in reducing the symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients, but its effects on brain are still not clear. In this work, we have monitored the changes in the cerebrovascular pattern of MS patients and normal subjects during major ozone autohemotherapy by using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) as functional and vascular technique. NIRS signals are analyzed using a combination of time, time-frequency analysis and nonlinear analysis of Intrinsic Mode Function (IMF) signals obtained from Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) technique. Our results show that there is an improvement in the cerebrovascular pattern of all subjects indicated by increasing the complexity of the NIRS signals. Hence, we can conclude that the ozone therapy increases the brain metabolism and helps to recover from the lower activity levels which is predominant in MS patients."

Past Public Program
Artis, The Swiss Institute and Columbia University School of the Arts presented a special event with Gilad Ratman, one of the youngest artists chosen to represent Israel at the 2013 Venice Biennale. Ratman, who graduated from the School of the Arts Visual Arts Program ('09 SOA), gave a unique glimpse into his project, The Workshop (2013), a multi-channel site-specific installation for the Israel Pavilion at the 55th Venice Biennale. The Workshop documents the journey of a community of people from Israel to Venice, through a non-linear presentation of video, installation, sound and a physical intervention in the fabric of the Pavilion itself. While our global political reality reflects an increase in boundaries and barriers, the project's site-specificity reflects on the Biennale as a utopian model of national connectivity. Ratman depicts a world where transit can take place across national borders via hidden networks – free, undetected and unidentifiable.

We did it first, we do it best. We quickly gained a reputation for doing only custom hand drawn tattoos not "flash". Flash art is when you pick it off the wall and get in line!
After 16 short years we are still moving forward. Almost every major Vegas shop got it's start at Pussykat which became a breeding ground for future shop owners! Most of Vegas' best tattoo artists have worked here at some point! My stint on A&E's "Bad Ink" only helped to increase the visibility and reputation of my humble shop.
We can certainly handle all forms of tattooing cover-ups and beyond! My band's "The Vermin" and "Stormtroopers of Dirk" helped usher in the Anniversary in style on Friday the 13th!!!! We had a blast! Keep up with all I'm doing this coming year including the release of my upcoming book, "The Devil and Dirk Vermin' due out later this year! More television is coming as well! Stay tuned!...

So yesterday since i was drinking beer i decided not to take any Aleve while i was drinking. Some of you that read my post the other day about running out of my tramadol (pain medicine) - i have fibromyalgia and chronic pain because of it. Well since i was drunk i didn't feel anything, which was awesome. Suhhh dude and i went to the movies and saw Ride Along when he got off work. Ride Along was seriously so hilarious by the way, go see it. But when we got home from the movies my legs started aching really bad. I tried to go to sleep, because that's the best way to combat pain. I couldn't get comfortable at all, suhhh dude was massaging my legs and scratching my back (best ways to get me to sleep) but the pain was so severe that even with the massaging i was crying because my legs hurt so badly. I fell asleep for 5 minutes (tossed and turned like a crazy person according to dude) and woke up crying for Aleve and ZzzQuil. I took 3 Aleve and chugged a huge gulp of ZzzQuil. Then suhhh dude massaged my legs again, then switched to my back, then my head, because i was freaking the fuck out about the pain. Then i realized that i'm probably also going through withdraw from the tramadol since i've had it every day for the past year. I couldn't get comfortable at all, eventually after screaming, and other various loud noises i somehow fell asleep. But through the whole sleep i could feel myself in pain, even when i was dreaming. I could feel myself tossing and turning around all night.
It was awful, my legs feel better now but my back is hurting. We have to go do laundry at my parent's house today so i'm going to ask my mom for vicodin or literally anything that will help. I really cant do this anymore. Apparently i was asking suhhh dude to kill me or put me in a coma so i wouldn't have to feel pain anymore.

Michael Yon just got his embed privilege with British forces canceled, perhaps as a result of a little too much truth-telling. In his last two dispatches, Yon reported that Taliban efforts to push back against NATO's latest forward efforts in Helmand province, a key Taliban stronghold, had been finding success. In his last dispatch from his embed with 2nd Rifles, a "truly professional force," Yon underscores the problems facing the Brits in Helmand:
We need more troops. The leadership tells us that the Taliban and associated groups control only small parts of the country. Yet enemy influence is growing, and so far, despite that we have made progress on some fronts, our own influence is diminishing. For example, an excellent British infantry unit that I embedded with in Iraq and now Afghanistan, the "2 Rifles," is staked out in the "Green Zone" around the Helmand River. HQ for 2 Rifles is at FOB Jackson near the center of the map above. There are several satellite FOBs and Patrol Bases, each of which is essentially cut off from the outside world other than by helicopter or major ground resupply efforts (which only take place about once a month). The latest ground resupply effort from Camp Bastion resulted in much fighting. The troops up at Kajaki Dam are surrounded by the enemy, which has dug itself into actual "FLETs." FLET is military-speak for "Forward Line of Enemy Troops." In other words, the enemy is not hiding, but they are in trenches, bunkers and fighting positions that extend into depth. The enemy owns the terrain.
The British are protecting Kajaki Dam but otherwise it's just a big fight and no progress is being made. The turbine delivery to the dam, which I wrote about last year, was a tremendous success. Efforts to get the turbine online have been an equally tremendous failure. Bottom line: the project to restore the electrical capacity from Kajaki Dam is failing and likely will require multi-national intervention to bring it online and to push back the enemy.
We need more helicopters. Enemy control of the terrain is so complete in the area between Sangin and Kajaki that when my embed was to switch from FOB Jackson to FOB Inkerman—only seven kilometers (about four miles) away—we could not walk or drive from Jackson to Inkerman. Routes are deemed too dangerous. Helicopter lift was required. The helicopter shortage is causing crippling delays in troop movements. It's common to see a soldier waiting ten days for a simple flight. When my embed was to move the four miles from Jackson to Inkerman, a scheduled helicopter picked me up at Jackson and flew probably eighty miles to places like Lashkar Gah, and finally set down at Camp Bastion. The helicopter journey from Jackson began on 12 August and ended at Inkerman on the 17th. About five days was spent—along with many thousands of dollars in helicopter time—to travel four miles. Even Generals can have difficulty scheduling flights. Interestingly, when I talk with the folks who reserve helicopter space, they say the Generals are generally easy-going about the lack of a seat, but that Colonels often become irate.
This is very disappointing, but perhaps not unexpected. We need a push to get the Taliban out of Helmand, as their funding comes from the drug trade in that province and their political influence is strongest there. That makes it key for the Taliban as well, and they were not going to simply walk away. Yon predicted that the initial success of the NATO forces portended a change in strategy for the Taliban, who now operate more clandestinely after the NATO forces have stopped their advance and try to hold positions.
Be sure to read it all, especially for the photo essay that is always an essential part of Yon's reporting. Don't forget to hit the tip jar, too, as Michael relies entirely on reader donations for funding his front-line reports.
Update: The US commander in Afghanistan shares Michael's assessment:
The top commander of U.S. and NATO troops in Afghanistan said Monday the situation in the country is "serious" and a new strategy is needed to defeat the Taliban.
Gen. Stanley McChrystal sent his strategic review of the Afghan war to the Pentagon on Monday.
He did not ask for more troops but is expected to do so in a separate request, two NATO officials said on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak on the matter. …
"The situation in Afghanistan is serious, but success is achievable and demands a revised implementation strategy, commitment and resolve, and increased unity of effort," McChrystal said in a statement Monday.
This will present Obama with some tough political choices. The left wing of his party wants the US out of Afghanistan, regardless of the status of al-Qaeda. The military wants to keep pursuing AQ, and most of the country would agree with that position. Republicans will support Obama's effort overseas as long as he remains flexible on strategy and tactics.

"That's right. Although Brother Liufeng had obtained great benefits during a tough trial and has the ability to challenge the top three geniuses on the Sky Ranking, he don't have the power to kill Shi Han. If Jiang Chen and him were to be engaged in a battle, I'm afraid the outcome will be unpleasant." "I heard that Jiang Chen is coming here to propose marriage to Miss Ningzhu, but the patriarch have announced to bethroth Miss Ningzhu to Brother Liufeng three days later. I'm sure the event is going to turn hot this time." Everyone in Gu Family was discussing about Jiang Chen - a genius who had killed Shi Han. In fact, this was not only happening in Gu Family as the news had spread across Pure Land. This single battle had pushed Jiang Chen's reputation to the peak. Now, no one had doubts about Jiang Chen's strength anymore. While the astonishment was still in their body, another shocking news was spread. Jiang Chen had brought great betrothal gifts to Gu Family, 1.5 billion high grade True Meta Stones, three Nine Solar Lightning-Dragon pills and ten bottles of Nine Solar Saint Water. Such extraordinary gifts would naturally create waves of commotion among the people. "My G.o.d, isn't this Jiang Chen too aggressive for giving out so many incredible treasures?" "It seems he is determined to marry Miss Ningzhu. It means Brother Liufeng is going to be in danger." "Yea. Although Patriarch had made the announcement, the gifts that Jiang Chen brought are too attractive. It can bring unimaginable benefits to Gu Family. If we are thinking in the perspective of bringing advantages to our family, marrying Miss Ningzhu to Jiang Chen will be more advantageous to us." The betrothal gifts had shocked everyone. Apparently, it was Gu Mu who leaked the news. This old man was trying his best to gather support for Jiang Chen. Everyone was waiting for the family meeting that would be held after three days. Jiang Chen's arrival was going to make the family meeting hot. Wu Ningzhu and Gu Liufeng were going to play the leading role but Jiang Chen, an outsider, had also taken the leading role. Another thing that surprised the people was that Gu Liufeng was unusually silent, as though he had never received any of those news outside. However, the youths of Gu Family knew that Gu Liufeng couldn't continue to stay silent. If he didn't do anything about it, it would greatly hurt his reputation. Many people predicted that Gu Liufeng would rise in revolt in the family meeting three days later. In the subsequent three days, Gu Lan and Wu Ningzhu didn't leave Lan Ning World. Jiang Chen too stayed with them. Even Gu Xuantian didn't leave the place. Why would the patriarch leave the peaceful place when he could choose to spend leisure time here? As for the setting up and arrangement of the family meeting, his absence wouldn't affect any of them. As for Wu Tianyang, Gu Xuantian was going to send Gu Mu to Southern Continent when the family meeting was over. In these three days, Gu Lan and Wu Ningzhu were filled with laughter. The silent and depressing atmosphere had turned lively by their laughter. Wu Ningzhu told her mother again about her things, the most important one was the matter about Jiang Chen and Gu Liufeng. "Mother, do you think Uncle will marry me to Little Chen?" Wu Ningzhu asked doubtfully. Gu Xuantian was the patriarch after all. He would never eat the words he gave. "Look at them. They have already become friends that can chat without reserve. I have never seen your dignified uncle being friends with an outsider, especially with a junior. This is enough to prove Jiang Chen's exceptional charisma. If you don't believe your uncle, you should believe Jiang Chen." Gu Lan said with a smile. Jiang Chen was the most excellent young man she had ever seen. If her daughter could marry such an outstanding hero, it would be her daughter's great fortune. It was her wish to see her daughter having a happy life. "That's right. There is nothing in this world which Little Chen can't do." Wu Ningzhu's face was filled with delight. Her understanding of Jiang Chen was far beyond what Gu Xuantian or Gu Lan had. Jiang Chen would never give up once he had decided to do a thing and there was nothing he couldn't achieve. After three days, drumbeats resounded in the sky above the Gu Family. n.o.body's ears were able to escape from the sound. Today was the most important day of the Gu Family, it was a day that represented by all the young generations of the family. The battle drum was an indication of ardor. It was used to stir up the morale of the young fighters who would always move forward in the battlefield. The martial stage of Gu Family was incomparably huge. It had a radius of ten miles. The martial stage was erected with a number of battle platforms. Every platform was imprinted with various marks and stains that were left by previous battles. Early in the morning, countless of cultivators have arrived at the martial stage. Their faces were filled with excitement. The center of the stage was occupied by genius young men because this would be their main battlefield. At this moment, two silhouettes pa.s.sed through the air and landed at the center of the martial stage. They were a couple consisting of a good-looking man and a beautiful girl. They were Jiang Chen and Wu Ningzhu. They were holding hands which showed that they were in deep love. When those young men who had chased Wu Ningzhu saw this, their eyes spurt out fire. She was a n.o.ble G.o.ddess in their eyes but she was now holding hands with an outsider. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to them. "Look, that man is Jiang Chen. He is too young, much younger than I think." "Do you see how well-matched they are? I have no idea what Gu Liufeng would feel when he sees this." "He definitely won't feel good, but Jiang Chen is powerful enough to kill Shi Han. I don't know whether Gu Liufeng will dare to challenge him or not."

- Why did you start your blog?
I had been reading a few wedding blogs as part of a long list of daily detractors. i realized that there were weddings i liked reading about and ones that turned me off. i gave myself a dream budget* and thought it through. if i researched as much as the ladies on these blogs, could i do it? could i possibly throw a $10,000 wedding? a $10,000 wedding i would l-o-v-e? could i would i?
- I've already purchased my Gocco, and foresee a lot of DIY projects on my horizon to help cut costs, what were your DIY successes? Was there a project that you tried and wished you just spent the money to have someone else do it (aka a DIY disaster?). I really hope it wasn't the Gocco.
can i just tell you how much i LOVE the gocco? i love it. i don't know how to do anything fancy with it. but i'm a whiz at the basics. there's something about printing your own stuff that makes you feel like the craftiest craftmaster on the planet. when you're clearly not.
i've gocco'd invites, thank you cards, note cards, paper, anything i can get my hands on, etc...and i haven't come across a project i've regretted yet. and now i've just jinxed myself.
- How active was your fiance (the groom)? Did he help you plan?
he wasn't the driver, really ever, during the planning process because i'm the one who'd been researching all this wedding stuff for a year before we even got engaged. he'd been following the blog so he kind of knew where it was all headed. i think he sort of took a step back to let me just do my thing. and when i needed his help, he was right there. it worked for us.
- What decisions, if any, did he make? Was there anything that he wanted to take charge of in planning?
there wasn't a project he wanted to own. we kind of just did things together, made decisions together. neither of us was ever staunchly against what the other person wanted. lucky, huh.
- What's the best advice you could give an engaged couple about to have a wedding on a tight budget? How about a couple living in LA looking to have an LA wedding?
to the engaged couple on a tight budget: be flexible.
to the LA couple looking to have an LA wedding: be flexible.
one of the dumbest/smartest things i learned was that...you can't have a $50,000 wedding on a $10,000 budget. and yes, i had to learn that.
- What is your favorite time travel device (ie the Delorean, the glowing spinning time warp wall, the giant old timey metal contraption that spins till it disappears, etc)?
hiro isn't a time travel device but he's the master of time and space. so...hiro.
- Now, if you were to use that time travel device to go back in time and change one thing about your wedding, what would it be?
i wouldn't change any aspect of the wedding itself. but there are some details that were overlooked that i do regret. first, i would confirm the ceremony program with our officiant to make sure that we were on the same page (we so weren't). second, i would make sure we formally thanked all of our guests (we got caught up in the frenzy and didn't make the announcement we wanted) and went around to greet each of them (we only got to half of our guests. double argh). but, i couldn't help the logistics that got swept out of my control. that's just the way it is. everyone says the time is short and it totally is...and i absolutely couldn't wrap myself around the fronts and ends of everything that was happening. plus i was trying my best to just soak it all in. so...i was kind of busy.
- What's the best thing that's come from your blogging?
what a loaded question. a million things.
there were a lot of times while i was planning when i felt cautious, worried, anxious. if i do this, what will people think. if i don't do that, what will people say. over and over and over again.
and what TTO offered was some of the most sane, wise, encouraging advice through readers and fellow bloggers. it was pretty amazing. i mean, i wasn't an experienced or inspirational blogger of any kind...i was just a stranger who jumped in and started blogging blindly and anonymously without knowing much about anything.
but in the end, the blog was a major influence on how our wedding turned out. and we were so effing happy. and in the best possible way.
Some great pictures from Ten Thousand Only's wedding!

Andrew Lloyd Webber - Poor Fool He Makes Me Laugh lyrics
Poor Fool He Makes Me Laugh by Andrew Lloyd Webber
Poor fool, he makes me laugh!
Time I tried to get a better better half!
Poor fool, he doesn't know!
Hoho! etc.
If he knew the truth, he'd never, ever go!
(Suddenly from nowhere, we hear the voice of the
Did I not instruct that Box Five was to be kept empty?
MEG (terrified)
He's here: the Phantom of the Opera...
(General reaction of bewilderment.
CHRISTINE looks fearfully about her)
It's him... I know it... it's him...
CARLOTTA (Finding a scapegoat in CHRISTINE,
Hisses at her)
Your part is silent, little toad!
(But the PHANTOM has heard her)
A toad, madame? Perhaps it is you
Who are the toad...
(Again general unease. CARLOTTA and the
CONDUCTOR confer and pick up from the opening of the
CARLOTTA (As the COUNTESS)
Serafimo, away with this pretence!
You cannot speak, but kiss me in my croak!
(Instead of singing she emits a great croak like a toad. A
Stunned silence. CARLOTTA is as amazed as anyone but
Regains herself and continues. More perturbing,
However, is a new sound: the PHANTOM is laughing -
Quietly at first, then more and more hysterically)
CARLOTTA (as the COUNTESS)
Poor fool, he makes me laugh -
Croak, croak, croak,
Croak, croak, croak, etc.
(As before. The PHANTOM'S laughter rises. The
Croaking continues as the chandelier's lights blink on
And off. The PHANTOM'S laughter, by this time
Overpowering, now crescendos into a great cry):
Behold! She is singing to bring down the
(CARLOTTA looks tearfully up at the MANAGERS ' box
And shakes her head)
(ANDRE and FIRMIN hurry out of the box onto the
Stage. PIANGI ushers the now sobbing CARLOTTA
Offstage, while the MANAGERS tackle the audience)
Ladies and gentlemen, the performance will
Continue in ten minutes' time...
(He addresses Box Five, keeping one eye on the
Chandelier as it returns to normal)
... when the role of the Countess will be sung by Miss
Christine Daae.
ANDRE (improvising)
In the meantime, ladies and gentlemen, we shall be
Giving you the ballet from Act Three of tonight's opera.
(To the CONDUCTOR)
Maestro - the ballet - now!
(The MANAGERS leave, the stage is cleared and music
Starts again. The BALLET GlRLS enter as a sylvan glade
Flies in. They begin the Dance of the Country Nymphs.
Upstage, behind the drop, a series of threatening
Shadows of the PHANTOM. MEG is aware of them and
Dances out of step. When this culminates in one
Gigantic, oppressive, bat-like shadow, the garotted body
Of JOSEPH BUQUET falls onto the stage, causing the
Sylvan glade to fly out. Pandemonium.)
CHRISTINE (calling for help)
Raoul! Raoul!
(RAOUL runs on stage and embraces her)
RAOUL (to CHRISTINE, leading her away)
Christine, come with me...
No... to the roof. We'll be safe there.
(CHRISTINE and RAOUL hurry off)
FIRMIN (Attempting to placate the audience as STAGE-
HANDS and POLICEMEN crowd onto the stage)
Ladies and gentlemen, please remain in your seats. Do
Not panic. It was an accident... simply an accident.

now i'm in full-on advice mode. oh, you? you should move to bolivia. it's warm there. and you? wear more black. less patterns. also, eat more jellybeans. they don't hurt your taste-buds after over-indulging.
hmm. my advice isn't nearly as golden written out as it is when it's sitting in my head.
since uncle sugar's been traveling, we've been emailing. now, he and i talk a lot. a lot a lot. that guy has such great stories. i remember when we first met in college and he'd come to see me on the weekend. just before he walked out of the door on sundays, i'd ask him about...ohh...bullfights. and he'd spend an hour describing one he saw in spain. another time, it was the holocaust museum in paris. another time, it was a heartbreaking conversation with a palestinian. and on forever on.
i have much different tales. less facts, for sure.
anyway. we're back to telling stories back and forth. written out, they're so much more precious. meaningful. intentional. does that make sense?
i told him i'm going to keep writing to him even after he comes home. and he wrote back isn't that what you're doing with mackin ink?
yes, pat. this is all for you.
images from here and here. also. my nephew - i can't even brag enough about this guy. so supra-brainy and fielding full-ride ice hockey scholarships to major smarty-pants unis in, say, boston and pretty much every other cool city. someday, i'll tell you about my sister-in-law christina. greatest mom ever invented. - made a rap video with his friends ABOUT CALCULUS. i think it's about calculus. you know how i am with math. anyway. they're studying for their AP calculus exams and they all want to {and will} earn perfect fives. i don't know...i think hard-working rapper boys who love math need a little extra love. here's the link if you want to give them any. theo starts around the 2.32 mark. also, he's fluent in german and italian. they only moved to the states a few years ago from italy, so you can still sort of hear an accent. ugh. can you tell how i love that boy? have a sweetheart weekend, you little sweethearts...xoxo.

So I have been playing ... (82). Bit long, bit dark.
Deep in the middle of dark winter I received a surprise holiday gift (thank you, Snorky!). This wasn't my first-ever Long Dark encounter - I had tagged along to some Knux's livestreams too. Still, having my hands on the real thing was way different (and some of the mechanics were not as easy to pick up as others).
My first survival attempt failed miserably and fast.
My second recorded try went better. In fact, I began recording because I felt I was doing somewhat well - only to be blindsided by some mechanics pretty much right away. After that I started a series of new games in random locations, all of which didn't last very long.
In my third try I had picked up certain things, and I had managed to pull through some critical situations - but eventually I wanted more, and got too bold.
My fourth session was a long one (I had to cut the footage into six hour-ish episodes). I survived the longest so far; this was also where I fully learned the danger of getting stuck into a safe location and using up your supplies so that you won't have enough to break out again. In the end I began making dumb mistakes and taking unnecessary risks - I could blame the fact that my late-night session witnessed the real-life daylight breaking.
In my fifth attempt I kept my sessions somewhat shorter to avoid IRL Dumb doing me in. I started recording once I'd gotten past the 4th session survival time. My current modest survival record clocked in at 20 days.

So if you ready my earlier blog 'free to be me' and the other music blogs I've written, you may be interested to know that I am having an absolute BLAST this year on my music journey so far.
I am learning music theory, the guitar, taking vocal lessons and I've now added the keyboard to my repertoire – nothing can stop me now!!! I am realising how important the theory is now, it's the building blocks and foundation for music – if you can grasp this, the rest is just creative fun! If I had managed to grasp this when I was a little younger, who knows where I would be today?!?! But hey, I cant waste time on 'coulda, shoulda, wouldas,' so I am finally getting on with my music and I am so excited, I feel so content and peacful and I just want more and more of it… 🙂
… The DjW event I did yesterday, was amazing!! Everyone enjoyed the set that I did and most importantly, I feel like I was able to plant some seeds of encouragement and inspiration, pointing towards God which I believe is the key to life! We are already in talks about putting on future nights, so watch this space!
Being on stage is like my 2nd home! There is a side of me that is released and its like I sort of watch this person from within and I'm in awe of her confidence and the voice sounds beautiful, I almost cant believe its me lol!!! I had great comments about my voice from "girl you can definitely sing," to "what a voice!" and "wow you have a beautiful voice!" Hearing this is so touching and encouraging because singing is the one thing that I love to do more than anything else, but its also the one thing I question with thoughts like "am I good enough?" Or "theres so many others better than me, what makes me think I can really do this professionally?" I know I shouldnt punish myself with comparison, so I try to nip those thoughts in the bud before they run riot in my mind and I will continue to work and develop until I get where I want to be, but also making sure I enjoy the journey no matter the outcome.
…I'm so inspired right now, I'm now brushing up on my keyboard skills (after 16 years of not playing), and I'm amazed at how much I actually still remember (its kind of like riding a bike, once you learn its always with you). I guess the old saying "don't use it, you lose it" doesn't apply in my case lol!! Its all still there, its just finding it again. I'm sure this has something to do with my prayers, asking God to help me grasp everything speedily and to advance me quickly so that I can catch up with the years of missed practice – so I am really seeing the fruit of these prayers!!! I composed my first song on the keys this week and I was amazed at how well I played, it was literally like my fingers just knew what to do. Now after spending the afternoon with my uncle who showed me some great tips, (he is such a great teacher and so inspiring) I feel like I have jumped forward 10 steps! I now have some exercises to practice to develop my keyboard playing and my uncle has shown me how to incorporate various 1st, 2nd and 3rd inversion chords combined with base notes to enhance the chords I have chosen for my song, so I'm really excited about developing this track!
…I'm gonna start some serious recording within the next 2 weeks, so I am really excited about being able to get my music heard and hearing feedback and continuing my development…happy times:)

I finally got the review of my short story 'Choices' back! Overall I'm quite happy with it. I don't know the writer they are talking about (my daughter does), but the comments are agreeable. No mentioning of the carpenter though, which surprised me.
Dear Jacky Dahlhaus,
The feedback from the judges on your Short Story Challenge 2016 submission from 1st Round is below. We hope you find the feedback helpful and you enjoyed the competition!
"Choices" by Jacky Dahlhaus – WHAT THE JUDGE(S) LIKED ABOUT YOUR STORY –
…………Odd little story — I like that it's told from such a strange POV. Very hard to pull off, but you do this well. Consistency throughout, and real tension/ drama. …………………………A compelling and unique way to incorporate all three contest elements. Nice dramatic tension……………………………….…………………………The story commits fully to the wolf perspective, with clear evidence of an attempt to get into a very different, even alien, point of view…….…………………………………………………………… WHAT THE JUDGE(S) FEEL NEEDS WORK – …………I think you handle this well from start to finish. There are places where the transitions to back-story need a little work — not always convincing, and sometimes a little predictable. Even so, this is a fun idea. I wonder if you know Michelle Paver's Wolf Brother series? …………………………I felt able to predict the ending well before it occurred. I wonder about rejigging it a bit, to catch the reader by surprise. The final line, also, felt overly sentimental……………………………….…………………………While the language being simpler than a human's makes sense, it feels child-like and innocent in a way that doesn't fit the wild, rough life of the wolves. …………………………………………………………………

Last week we told you that accessory giant Seidio had released a 3800mah battery for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus with NFC.
Mugen's new 4000mah battery is only for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM version. According to phonearena Mugen wasn't able to shrink the size down on the big bulky battery. They report that the Mugen battery and battery door, when installed, looks like you have two phones glued together.
The Mugen battery costs $99 and will be available starting Friday. However the Seidio battery is $79, available for the CDMA Galaxy Nexus. and it has NFC support as well.
There's no word on whether or not this Mugen battery has NFC support but it's doubtful since they didn't announce it with NFC.

Is Gore Patrimony?
Gore was founding Principal of Pusey House in this University, where I worshipped as an undergraduate and had the honour of a Senior Research Fellowship when I returned to Oxford; later he was Vicar of Radley, a few hundred yards from where I now live; then Bishop of Oxford; also Founder of the Community of the Resurrection, of which our much-loved Mgr Robert Mercer is a member. You can find ... I admit it ... in his writings attacks upon what he saw as the failings of the Catholic Church, and teaching upon Biblical Inspiration which might have been unpopular in the pontificate of S Pius X.
But it is my strong conviction that blessed Benedict XVI intended us to bring into the unity of the Catholic Church all that was good in our inheritance; setting it when necessary within a Catholic context so that it may be corrected and completed.
The Lambeth Conference, a gathering with no canonical status but considerable 'moral' authority, used to gather together, every ten years, all the bishops in peace and communion with the See of Canterbury. Its meeting in 1920 spoke very sternly about the immorality of Contraception. By 1930, on the other hand, this teaching had radically changed. Gore spoke about this change, with no holds barred! I urge you to read his arguments at anglicanhistory.org/gore/contra1930.html. He was, like Pius XI (Casti connubii) and B Paul VI (the Pope of Humanae vitae) a prophet who foresaw the complete overthrow of Christian sexual morality in the final third of the twentieth century. The 1930 Lambeth Conference was indeed the thin end of Satan's wedge; the dirty work was to be finished off by the 1968 Lambeth. Gore admired the Catholic Church for bearing a witness to Truth and Purity which his own Communion had, to his distress, abandoned. He also wrote well about the High Priests who served before the 1930s Altar of Modernity, the HG Wellses, the Bertrand Russells, the Margaret Sangers, the Eugenicists, Racial Hygienists and Euthanasiacs, worthy Precursors of Adolf Hitler's Gestapo and of the Thought Police of our own time. He has a lovely tone of righteous and faintly surprised indignation.
At this 'time between the Synods', a time when ... do you like mixed metaphors? ... very similar wolves are knocking at the door of the Catholic Church, Gore is a Christian Teacher with a message directly for us. A 'Patrimony' gift to the whole Church Catholic? Why not read him?
Perhaps there is another piece of advice which the Anglican Patrimony can share with those who want to change the sexual teaching of the Catholic Church. You are merely trying to follow the Anglicans in the journey upon which they embarked in 1930. Why? If you want to be the way they are now, you can have that, now, simply by joining them, without having to wait 85 years. Remember the old tombstone memento mori: Memento viator, quia quod tu es, ego eram; et quod ego sum, tu eris.

"Wolves knocking at the door" is not a mixed metaphor: the three little pigs? What about the three little pigs, the Synod, and I Cor 3:10-13? Is there a post there?

Dear Rev Father,
COuld I plead, for the benefit of those of us who read your delightful blog, but have not the benefit of Latin nor greek, to always include an English translation? (For such as the last line of your posting on Juan.4/2015.Thank you , and God Bless you.

Remember, traveler, that what you are, I was, and what I am, you will be.
I'm afraid that sometimes I do leave things in an ambiguous Latin which, in English, would not be able to hide in ambiguity. I do see your point, and, normally, the Latin or Greek bits are not essential to understanding the passage as a whole; so that, if you read it all through, it makes sense without the Greek or Latin bits. But I will bear in mind what you say.

Fr. Hunwicke,
On a related note, would you (or anyone else) recommend to me other authors within Anglicanism which you think ought to be read? I happen to attend an Ordinariate parish, but I don't have much awareness of the greater lights (Newman excepted) within the tradition.
- 04 January, 2015
Would it not be more accurate to describe Pusey House as being 'in this City', rather than 'in this University'?

Re: Other authors within Anglicanism who ought to be read.
Over the years when the Anglican Use Society published Anglican Embers, we had a short series called "From the Patrimony", highlighting passages from Anglican Divines who had much to say to the Catholic patrimony within Anglicanism. While not a complete list of authors to be read, it is a good starting point. The authors we included were: George Herbert, Jeremy Taylor, William Law, Charles Gore, Frederick William Faber, Canon C. Winfred Douglas, John Mason Neale, Lancelot Andrewes.
Most of their passages are available on the web site, and the others soon will be: http://www.anglicanuse.org/AngEmbers.htm

Much appreciated, Steve.

Once I got over my shock at the title ('Gore' in these United States usually refers to one person who, despite his repeated idiocies, still garners a following…), I read what Bishop Gore had to say and was hugely impressed.
I could only reflect that it was in stark contrast to the vociferous reactions of many Catholic hierarchs to the promulgation of Humanae Vitae years later. They could have learned a lot from Bishop Gore. His prophetic warnings would be echoed by Pope Paul VI in that document – and we have seen them come about.

In Brave New World, published in 1932, the sexual revolution is complete. There is still a role for the Arch-Community-Songster of Canterbury. How reassuring.

, rather than buying these 17 plug-ins/apps individually. This is THE BEST PLUG-IN DEAL in the industry, considering the wide range of image effects and enhancements they make possible.
See our review of the Topaz Photography Collection
Here's a summary of what's included in the Collection:
Topaz Texture Effects
comes with over 130 expertly crafted effects and an extensive library of textures, light leaks & more to help jumpstart your creativity. Just pick an effect and make adjustments to tailor your images to your tastes.
Topaz Glow
Electrify your photos with brilliant effects! Glow contains more than 70 unconventional and quirky filters. With Glow you can alter your images using neon, graphic, liquid and other electrifying effects.

Topaz B&W Effects
takes you beyond traditional black and white conversion methods by integrating unique features like a 5-in-1 selective adjustment brush, adaptive exposure, quad toning, historical processing collections, creative effects and more.
Topaz Adjust
is the easiest way to make your photos pop. Perhaps the most popular plug-in in the industry right now, Adjust optimizes image exposure, color, and detail strength for stunning image results. Quality exposure adjustment in Photoshop is cumbersome and sometimes frustrating. Adjust makes this process simple, fun, and highly rewarding. Other developers charge up to and over $595 for this type of plug-in, and they offer far less functionality!
Topaz ReMask
is the fastest way to mask and extract your images. ReMask harnesses the latest in image extraction technology to make masking intuitive and powerful. Unlike Photoshop's sometimes clumsy and hard to use extraction tools, ReMask makes photo extraction and masking easy and sizzling fast.
Topaz Detail
gives full control and precision over all aspects of detail manipulation without creating any edge artifacts or halos. Unlike Photoshop's detail enhancement techniques, Detail effectively accentuates three levels of detail without the slightest trace of artifacts or haloing.
Topaz Simplify
provides creative simplification, art effects, and line accentuation for easy one-of-a-kind art. In contrast to built-in artistic filters in Photoshop, which are limited to certain specific effects, Simplify creates a wide range of stunning artistic effects in a simple, intuitive, but powerful interface.
Topaz DeNoise
offers a complete noise reduction solution that removes far more noise and preserves far more detail than other solutions. Noise reduction is one of our core competencies, and DeNoise displays that brilliantly. Use state-of-the-art noise reduction abilities to make your formerly noisy photos clean, clear, and crisp.
Topaz Clean
provides unique smoothing and edge stylizing capabilities not found anywhere else. It can quickly add interesting flair to photos and can be used to both smooth out detail and stylize edges. Use Clean for exceptional results on portraits, weddings, and other people photos.
Topaz DeJPEG
drastically improves the quality of web images and other compressed photos. Although Photoshop includes a simple JPEG fixer, it doesn't preserve as much quality as possible. DeJPEG makes sure that any compressed image looks as good as it possibly can.
Topaz InFocus
is the comprehensive solution for your sharpening and deblurring needs. Infocus recovers lost detail, refines with micro-contrast enhancement and restores clarity to blurry images. Unlike unsharp masking, InFocus sharpens without distracting high-contrast edges.
Topaz Lens Effects
simulates realistic lens, filter and specialty camera effects.
Topaz Star Effects
creates unique star and lighting effects by manipulating and enhancing the appearance of various light sources found within your image. With a variety of fully-customizable effect options for modifying light sources, you can easily add a creative or dramatic flare to lights or reflective surfaces to focus more attention on those point.
Topaz photoFXlab
With instant access to all of the Topaz plug-ins, photoFXlab easily connects you to all of your Topaz effects in a searchable library. Featuring a layered workflow with masking capabilities, selective enhancement brushes with edge-aware technology and a fun new way to InstaTone your images, photoFXlab is the most efficient way to experience Topaz.
Topaz Impression
Capture the essence of your photos without being constrained by rigid detail. Topaz Impression helps you turn photos into paintings like a true artist would: by intelligently applying real brushstrokes to canvas.
Topaz ReStyle
ReStyle's proprietary technology learns from real photos to create sublime effects unavailable anywhere else. Immediately get hundreds of professional-quality results that would otherwise take you hours in Photoshop.
Below are actual user comments (gathered from various online
photography forum
postings and comments) so you can get an idea of how Topaz products are shaking up the plug-ins market:
"I bought the bundle a couple of years ago and love getting all the free upgrades. But, I'd be willing to pay occasionally... The plugins are tremendously useful, interesting and friendly. A great value, made even greater by the upgrade policy."
"I love it when something this creative is a Free upgrade to something that was already way cool! I will tell everyone I know to check them out, and go ahead and buy their products. This is the kind of stuff that gets new customers. (I hope Adobe is paying attention.)"
"I have all of the Topaz Labs plug-ins, I so-o-o love them. Adjust 5 will be through the roof! I'm really looking forward to getting, and using it."
"I just purchased Topaz Adjust 2 months ago and absolutely fell in love with it, then when Topaz B&W was released I purchased that immediately, without hesitation. ...Sounds like the updates to Adjust 5 are exactly what everyone was looking for."
"I LOVE my Adjust... I'm doing things with Adjust 4 that I had only dreamed about until I discovered and started using it. I'm going to stick my neck out here but I am guessing that most of you are doing the same. I for one would buy Topaz 5 and pay full price for it if I had to even though I bought 4 not long ago. The value added to my images is incredible and my clients are loving what I am doing with it."
"I absolutely love Topaz software. The team at Topaz does a great job of listening and introducing software capabilities that are always top notch and make you realize how much you needed a particular effect all along. These are Professional tools that up your game and make your toolkit better. I believe the upgrade and purchase prices are very reasonable, worth every penny, and certainly beat the "bloatware" that certain companies at the so-called top hold you hostage to purchase without giving you much for your hard-earned dollar."
"I have benefited greatly from using Topaz Products. Many friends of mine have commented positively my photo prints and am certainly looking forward to add Adjust 5 in my list."
"Most people relate Adjust 5 software to adding some interest in texture or a grunge to portraits but its sharpening capabilities are the best in the industry. ...The vibrant collection presets including Clarity and Detail can enhance all kinds of portraits and the control the 'right side' panel adjustments gives the user surpass the capabilities of LucisArt products a thousand fold. I mention LucisArt because IMHO it is the program most people amateur and professional alike compare Topaz Labs to the most. ...the 'Crisp', 'Detail' - 'Strong and Detail Strong II' are very practical - so many uses for these effects makes LucisArt look like crayons. Something many might not know is Topaz Labs Adjust is amazing for sharpening and adding contrast to jpeg files and also is a very valuable tool for those who do copy and restoration of existing photography and old vintage photography. Adjust 5 is a great upgrade..."
"...my favorite Topaz Plugin, Adjust, just got better. Keep up the good work"
"I'm trying a free trial of topaz - geez, it's addicting! I have a feeling before long, it may become a 'buy me.'"
"I have had nothing but excellent support from Topaz. Queries answered swiftly, friendly staff...the whole Topaz experience has been fantastic."
"Topaz has some awesome products. I remember when they first started out. The latest one for b/w is so worth the money. They had a fantastic sale on it recently which I think was just about half price. Even if you pay full price for it, it is worth it and in my opinion, better than Nik's b/w."
"I received the Topaz bundle for Christmas and just got around to installing it this week. (I know I've been busy, but now I could kick myself!) These plug-ins rock! I can't believe how much fun they are and how great the images turn out - and they're easy and intuitive to use. These really are great products!"
"Topaz is my favorite suite of plug-ins. I would be lost without ReMask and DeNoise. The improvement iterations and additions to the suite have been amazing."
"I, too, tried all of the other software that is available a while back ... Topaz Labs, LucisArt, and Nik Software. I like what all the packages have to offer and I have many, many friends from all the various "Camps" (aka, Topaz, Lucis, and Nik) and they try to convert me over to the others numerous times throughout the year. I have to say that while Lucis and Nik do offer some nice features and turn out some nice images, I have chosen to stick with Topaz Labs only because in my opinion they just cannot be beat. Hands down. Customer Service and Product Quality are just OFF THE CHARTS good."
"InFocus produces similar results [as FocusMagic] with much more control and visual feedback in the process."
"Wow! No doubt we'll all be using this one [InFocus] to go back through our libraries to salvage those out of focus rejects."
"Simple and effective, I've used [InFocus] in Photoshop CS5 and Lightroom 3.3 RC. It works flawlessly and noise that can't be managed in the plug-in itself can be manged with Denoise in Lightroom or surface blur in Photoshop."
"[InFocus is] quite astonishing. It's better than anything I've ever seen at recovering detail from less-than-critically-sharp images. I have used Focus magic for years, but this blows it away. At $29.99 you can't afford not to buy it, seriously :-)"
"...the crew at Topaz seem to keep making all of their plugins better - Kind of refreshing, they don't charge an arm and a leg like Adobe and keep making continuous improvements without charging for most of the updates. Nice!"
"I really enjoy the Topaz line and the entire suite has been well worth the money. It is an added bonus that the updates are free!"
"I've been using the Topaz bundle for almost a year now. Remask 2 totally rocks."
"I have to say, I've never been so blown away with the one, two, three simple results of Topaz."
"These are great plugins, DeNoise and DeJPEG are especially amazing when used to clean up old family photographs that I have scanned or on vintage, low resolution family jpgs. Adjust of course stands out by itself. All of the rest have been very useful, very flexible too..."
"I [have] been using Topaz products since early 2008. With the exception of sometimes haveing to redownload a product, I have nothing but praise for their products and have recommended them to friends."
"...I got Adjust as a 'poor man's' alternative to LucisArt, which it does a fine job of emulating, whereas PS does not even come close..."
"As for Topaz Denoise, I agree with everyone that it's the ultimate NR app out there now - at least as good as Nik Dfine. ...for ISO 1600 or 3200 images shot at dusk, nothing beats Topaz."
"Topaz detail is my favorite of the bunch. the control you get over sharpening is amazing, and there truly no artifacts produced!"
"This is a really wonderful set of plug-ins... Well worth the money. I highly recommend it."
"I bought the Topaz bundle months ago and it has since become an indispensable productivity tool. I use it interchangeably in Photoshop and Aperture and it's a huge time saver which also makes a signature style a real breeze. Remask 2 is a great improvement over the original product and the Topaz upgrade policies are the best I've found anywhere. Highly recommended!"
"I have been using the various Topaz bundle software products for quite sometime now... I have found this software extremely easy to use and with fantastic results. ...Topaz Labs put out in my opinion if not the best surely one of the best plug in softwares available today and a great price."
"Topaz is a hidden jewel among photography software! "
"I would like to say that I have been with Topaz for almost 3 years now. They have products that are user friendly and easy to use. Not to mention that they are very cost effective. I have received numerous upgrades as the products were improved. I have had the necessity to contact customer service on two occasions and both times they were extremely helpful and gracious. I have recommended this product to literally a dozen photographers that I know and all have purchased some of their products and all have been happy with their service. ...Name a company that continues to increase its offerings, with the regularity that they do and at the cost that they keep selling them at. How many programs can you get for $29.00???? I am very pleased to be a customer and will continue to be as long as they don't move from what has been allowing them to continue to grow, ingenuity, good products, good customer service and upgrades to help evolve the product."
"I think these are the most fun plug-ins I've ever played with..."
"It's amazing what Adjust can do when used with subtlety, you can make photos pop without them looking over processed. The other plugins are clearly powerful as well..."
"Excellent tools for extension of creative expression, top shelf noise removal and extraction software!"
"I have tried for years to achieve a 'certain' look and feel with some of my photographs, and it was difficult to impossible, until I found Adjust..."
"I'm sure DeNoise 3 will take noise reduction to a new level. I have so much confidence in Topaz that as soon as DeNoise3 is available I will certainly buy it... I have now gotten to the point where products from Topaz are the only ones I just buy without even doing the 'try out version' first. I don't think I would do that with any other publisher. I even purchased Clean 2, even though I really didn't think I [would] use it that much and now I LOVE it. I've never been quite so enthused about a product like this. Maybe it's the price/functionality or the feedback and info I get from this group, but... (Topaz products) has given me a new found enjoyment and creativity in my work."
"Topaz...is rapidly becoming my favorite software company."
"I'm really digging the Topaz Adjust plug-in. I downloaded the trial today, and it's a sure thing I'm going to buy it. I've played with art filters before, but none with the variety and power of TA. It works particularly well for scapes and architecture."
"A very interesting little plug-in... The results are very similar to LucisArt but with a better interface."
"I simply love Topaz plug-ins. Great software to a good price and good service from them. I have to say that I use Adjust in more than 98% of my pics."
"I've just purchased the Denoise plugin. By far, it's the best I've tried."
"I LOVE Topaz so much that I could NOT edit without it."
"denoise is best of the pack at this moment. best denoise tool you can get, it can be a bit slow at times but it preserves most detail..."
"I found so far that Topaz Adjust is very useful for overall tone mapping, where it can bring up a flat or contrasty photo and make sense out of the tones it finds. It can spark up a flat image, or pull out detail from a dark or contrasty image. That alone makes it worthwhile."
"I really enjoy the Topaz filters. Yeah you can go overboard but sometimes the contrast you can add to a picture is amazing. I have made average pictures stand out because of Topaz."
"I actually started playing with the Topaz suite several weeks ago. I got Adjust and several other plugins (Simplify, Clean, DeNoise) and I've experimented a bit. Amazing little suite for the price. I'd checked out LucisArt, but I found that I agreed with another reviewer regarding Topaz. 95% of the way there with the suite compared to Lucis at a fraction of the cost. Works for me so far!"
"Adjust can do much more than high contrast, low saturation, over sharpened look effects. There is an entire range of treatments from soft to hard sharpening, low to hyper saturation, and contrasts that run the gamut as well. Plus, you can adjust every aspect of the effect to get the look you want. I use Topaz Adjust/Simplify/DeNoise in conjunction with Nik plug-ins to get the look I want, to the point that some folks think I do HDR, when I don't at all."
"I purchased all of their plug-ins a while ago. Denoise was recently updated is definitely faster than the older version... Bang for the buck, they are absolutely fantastic. They all work in CS4 64-bit which is great (and faster)."
"I think I paid $99 for Lucis Art many years ago ...no way I would pay $600 for it today. You can get very close looking results using Topaz Adjust."
"I am very new to Topaz, but I am really enjoying the dynamics that it adds to photos..."
"I know you will love this program each and everytime you use it. I purchased it the first time I used it. I knew I had to have it. Since then, I ordered their Topaz Clean and that is a neat product to have too."
"lol it is for sure an addiction! I feel like I haven't finished editing a photo unless it has a little topaz :D"
"I've been evaluating a few denoiser apps, and I believe Topaz has the best product."

With just days left in the legislative session, lawmakers are looking to limit taxpayer funding for the EB-5 foreign investor program.
The Vermont EB-5 Regional Center has been supported by general fund dollars up to now. Lawmakers say they want developers who solicit $500,000 investments from immigrant investors through the EB-5 program to pay fees that would go toward the cost of running the center.
New proposed language also gives the Department of Financial Regulation permanent oversight of the program.
The language, which is part of the fee bill, H.872, also requires the regional center to make every effort to recoup fees not collected from Bill Stenger and Ariel Quiros, the EB-5 project developers who have been accused of perpetrating a massive fraud in the Northeast Kingdom. The two businessmen allegedly diverted $200 million out of a total of $350 million in immigrant investor funds that were supposed to be used for construction projects. The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Vermont Attorney General have both charged the developers with misuse of funds. As a result of the alleged fraud, the immigration status of several hundred investors is now in jeopardy.

A French nurse has placed an advert online offering to rent out her breasts to gay couples who cannot breastfeed their own children.
The 29-year-old new mother posted the unusual offer on the website e-loue.com, whose motto is: "With e-loue.com, everything is up for rent".
The rental, which costs 100 euro (£86) per day, is thought to be the first commercial venture of its kind since France legalised gay marriage and adoption earlier this year, but medical professionals have branded it a health hazard.
The advert, posted by "cecelia232" living in the Parisian suburb of Boulogne, reads: "I am a young mother in full health, a trained nurse, 29 years old, and I'm renting out my breasts to feed young babies. In one day I can offer you up to a dozen feeds for your baby.
"Breastfeeding allows babies to be in the best of health, but gay men in couples don't have the option of breastfeeding their babies. In fact, breast milk gives them full nutrition. Contact me through the site. Don't bother if you're not serious."
She has reportedly received at least 15 requests for her services, but the posting has sparked controversy in France.
The website's lawyers insist the offer is perfectly legal, but the country's public health laws state that it is illegal to sell breast milk for profit and any donated milk must pass through a designated milk bank.
Alexandre Woog, head of e-loue.com, said the young mother had been vetted to make sure everything was above board, although he advised her to be careful before accepting any requests.
He also said that neither he nor the woman involved had any strong views on gay marriage and adoption.
"She has no political message to deliver. This is a true service rendered, a sort of modernisation of the role of the wet nurse," he added.

Well seems a good idea, good nutrition for gay couples babies, and we used to use wet nurses over here without any problem,
a win win situation
I can't see why anyone should worry about this. There is a minimal health risk - but sex itself carries greater risks and people won't give that up!
Better than formula one would think.
Umm, that's called a wet nurse, and they have kind of been around since the beginning of recorded history. Come on, Nursing Times is not aware of this??
In an homosexual union the baby may have genes from "bought" ovum, whom the child will never know, be carried in the womb of a paid serogate, whom the child will never know and breast fed from paid breasts, the owner of whom it will never know. And this is natural? Their are going to be serious identity issues for the growing child

Nice pants!
love those pants!
My golf game could use those slacks.
Love this casual look with the special touch of the jacket!
love the pants!
I Love the pants!
Love the blazer/pants combo, looks great. Nice photo as always. Cheers.

That's a sleek looking gentleman.
I like how the pin on his lapel matches the pattern on his pants – do you think there's any chance, that was done intentionally?
oh, wow. One of my favorite portraits of a man I've seen on the site. The photo flawlessly captures the rugged handsomeness of his face. As for the outfit, it's so clean and interesting and just perfect. I love your passion for men's fashion.
x Peter @ http://low–couture.blogspot.com
Absolutely stunning man. Wish I'd have one of those in my office
Hugs & Kisses,
He needs to rethrink the hair though.
Hugs & Kisses,
I really like the print of his pants. I should get something like that for the bf.
cool!!! great job here in italy:)
A fit man. Looking good.
Great trousers!
The pants are just amazing !!
wow! I adore that pants (and that man too!)
One word – HOT! He rocks.
Great looking guy, love his pants!
Reminds me of Richard Gere.
Those pants are amazing!
White and brown are very elegant together but the pants look like knit pajamas. Too bad.
I've seen this handsome man on your blog a few times, I think.
What is he grabbing for? Driving licence? A gun? Sunglasses? Ah, I see. A memo pad. Isn't it a pen in his right hand? Nice pattern on his trousers.
Excellent style, i especially like these trousers.
Nice pants. Comfortable style.
Best regards.
LOVE the pants! They make the whole outfit.
i die for the scruff.
I love a man who looks relaxed, handsome and has style!
This man has style. Love it! And what a cute pants.
The statement pants steal the show, but there's actually a lot going on here. The thing that strikes me is that unusual color of brown on the jacket. It's got a blueish hue in it, like a "dark taupe" or something. Then he paired it with that thin, crisp polo, which is encouraging. Really casualized the whole look. I'd love to know what kind of shoes he paired with those trousers.
Great pants, I'd quite fancy a pair for myself, in a female, mid-rise, fitted version!
Wandering Minds fashion
Normally men past a certain age look really naff wearing "fashionable" clothes like those trousers, but this guy nails it. He brings to mind a Renaissance prince in casual wear. Being really fit helps, but it's the cut and colour of the jacket which makes it work. Doubtless both the jacket and the trousers were made for him. Classical yet up to date. Parfait!
I ask myself why I bother to live in America – so many slobs here.
Hooray, images to inspire blokes in matters sartorial. Thanks! Please take more. I've been worried men have been letting the side down as you've posted fewer and fewer.
yes. those pants are amazing. reminds of me a beautiful tile kitchen in Provincetown, MA.
I can't believe no one has commented on how his hair beautifully echoes the age lines on his face. Lovely.
Love the pants!!
Cool pants!
Perfect italian style!!
those pants are impeccable-the entire look is!
I would kill for these pants. They are stunning.
Groovy pin!
Adore this shot. It makes me want to jump through the lens and just hang about in the sun with him.
Seriously, EVERY single Italian man you shoot I inhale sharply and slowly exhale.
This is a *good* thing.
The trousers this fine gentleman is wearing are to die for! Love the printed pattern and the overall ensemble! Great post and great look!
- The Fashion Fellow
So confident and attractive! :)
Love the slacks!
Love the pants. Hate the hair.
Hot pants! Great look!
Great shot
Love his outfit especially the pants. i wish more men dress like this
Awesome, so natural… love the DOF!
Love this mans style! All the pieces are amazing especially those pants!
@ Monsieur Marcel–are you planning on optically dazzling the golf ball into a trance so it behaves?
Great capture, Scott. Mature style.
is no one wondering what shoes he wears to match this?
Like the jacket, the shirt's OK, but the pants are too feminine. Glib and trivializing as well–particularly on a guy as old as he appears to be . He needs a shave, too. Five day growth of beard + gray hair = homeless person. Leave the beard to your twenty year old son who can pull it off, and turn the pants over to your teenage daughter.
so beautiful man ina beautiful place!
nice style, love the pants!
So elegant!
Scott, yes please. Bring unto us the Italian gentlemen.
The weather in the Mediterranean is warmer and we are craving for fresh and stylish and oh so charming looks.
The pants are a risk, but soooooooooooooooooo cool!
A big kiss from Greece!
Great inspiration for what I'm busy with…. Thanks!
love this man, love his trousers!
Really interesting look and match of colors, it fit's really well with he's grey hair and image. Perfect shoot.
Great look! Entre Amis pants with Lardini jacket!
Adorable pants and he looks so sweet!
Sweet pants and great style for Summer!
stunning and different post.
great and stunning idea .
lovely pant.
Great trousers!!!!!!
gentleman!chic !
I'm impressed he could wear shirt with jacket with 100 degrees: impressive!
His gray hair makes the photo for me greets from Amman
Best pants EVER!!!! And I like the unshaved look!
I really like the printed pants and the fact that he looks still a gentleman in pants like this :)
I like his pants and jacket – however, bad hair!
I love how he doesn't look straight into the camera, but slightly to the side. Trying to catch his regard is hypnotizing…
Gorgeous natural "model", as always, but I cannot help stare at the rich smooth background, the city, an character in each and everyone of your photos. Great choices, great technique.
He just inspired me for my Saturday night outfit! With high-heel sandals I can get a perfectly femenine look as I have similar trousers and never thought about wearing them with polo shirts.
Not sure about the pyjama pants but the jacket is a win for sure. The ultimate in smart casual aloofness!
Sprezzatura anyone?
great pic!
Take care
Consultant Style Advisor
Very nice. I would have liked a clearer look at what pocket square he is wearing with those trousers though.
Meanwhile, here in London, we are bracing ourselves for a few more days of rain. I want thesartorialist.com to devote a few days to imaginative summer rainwear, for the benefit of we rain-cursed Brits.
I was scrolling down thinking how elegant this man looked, and then I saw those PANTS! Looks like he's got a fun side.
Printed pants look simply great.
Really "easy, clean, nice to watch" outfit
I'm from florence , so like everybody here i'm in the Pitti Uomo moode. That could be a reason of want to being men ;-)
One thing – we have like 35 C now here in Florence and I really admire all of this ppl wearing jackets, long pant etc….
Nice, clean, 'pleasent to watch' outfit.
I'm from florence so as everybody else, i'm in the Pitti moode.
One thing: now we have like 35C so I really admire all of this people wearing jackets, long pants etc….
To commentator Patrick: would you say that to Brunello Cuccinelli? I, too, don't like beards but he wears it well. Also, he is not old…..just very mature and sophisticated. Lastly, brown is the new black for the summer of 2012….get with the program, gentlemen.
@une chatte grise, the confidence to wear those pants is sure to have an osmotic effect on any endeavor, and golf requires confidence.
Great photo. I've really got to get out and travel more….
Dont take this the wrong way, but I want to rip those trousers off him……. Then run away very quickly, because he isn't getting them back :)
Accostamento stupendo! I pantaloni sono veramente belli…. Prada?
These pants are by Entre Amis, for sure!
Suits him. Looks good. Brave outfit.
WOW he's handsome. Stylish but still very manly :)
Those are some seriously impressive trousers!
I love the contrast here- He looks so suave and business-like on top and then there's these edgy printed trousers. Amazing!
beautiful light &
very handsome.
Will be in Florence soon!
Can't wait to watch all these stylish people:)
check out my blog:
Karolina Natalia
Heart stopping. What a dream. He looks like he enjoys life. I notice so many comments here about others not liking his hair. I love everything!. As for his do he's causal. It's the 'He's rolled out of his lover's bed' look.
Beautiful man.
I instantly recognized this handsome devil from one of my favorites of yours- http://www.thesartorialist.com/photos/on-the-street-sartorial-denim-florence/
A man with an eyelet pocket square, scruff and whatever that is that he's smoking… just yes.
Here is smoldering too! More swagger please!!
The printed trousers are a hit.
cool ! everything nicely put together
Nice jacket!
I want this men !
The trousers do nothing for me and they have diverted attention from a superb jacket. I suspect it's bespoke, but the more you look the more great detail you can see; stitching, cuff buttons' positioning and outstanding fit. Excellent style.
Grey Fox – a man searching for style in middle age
I don't know a lot of men who can make this work. He made it effortlessly easy- polo-t, khaki jacket and PRINTED PANTS! Italian men and their styles.. Lurve 'em.
We love scruffy, older Italian men.
those eyes …
Ahhhhhhh Italia!!
Tutti sempre perfetto ;)
What a goodlooking man.. and what a stunning photo.
I did not know you can wear your pj pants outside of the house…Nice cut though.
In response to Ray Ray: The exemplary Brunello Cuccinelli and the extraordinary garments his company makes are the exception to every rule I'd ever made or be inclined to make, including the superiority of two-button jackets to those with three buttons, and the absurdity of pants with pockets that will never be used. I've even been heard to say that in a parallel life I'd be more than happy to be Mr Cuccinelli.
where on Earth can I find pants like that?!
he looks great, has a nice touch in combining materials and colours, very fresh!
Wooow, I love your pics as always! chek out my pics from Pitti Immagine Uomo! http://www.saminablog.net
Best regards,
My man recently got a few pairs of pants like this but its been hard to blend such material pattern with the rest of the outfit. I really like how two colours on top match the fine print colours in the pants.
I love his look……gorgeous.
Nice look..casual chic and the pants…I need.a pair!
The pants! Love it!
look perfetto
Am I the only one who does not love the pants??
and its combination with the jacket?
who's this guy
What is name of this guy ?
Never mind the pants (although they are great!); look at the perfect fit of the blazer and the lovely details: pick stitching, working cuff buttons and 2/3 roll

Some have suggested using nail polish to help find the door unlock button.
My suggestion is to use clear adhesive-backed bumpers (often used to protect table tops). These are about 1/4" in diameter and you can still see the button icon through it.
I used one on the door unlock button and another on the driver's window switch.
I also used one on the radio volume button. For this one I trimmed the two sides of the button (to make it narrower) and it fit between the two raised bumps, so had a flatter surface to adhere to.

Published January 13, 2015
On Monday, an Ohio judge told 61-year-old Donald Miller that he was legally dead. An unusual ruling, considering that Miller was very much alive.
According to The Courier of Findlay, Ohio, Miller had gone to court Monday to try to reverse a 1994 death ruling by the same judge, Allan Davis. Judge Davis had declared Miller dead eight years after the latter had disappeared from his rental home.
Despite Judge Davis' acknowledgement that Miller was indeed in the courtroom, and appeared to be in good health, he did not reverse the ruling on the grounds that Miller's suit came after the three-year legal limit for challenging a death ruling.
"I don't know where that leaves you, but you're still deceased as far as the law is concerned," Davis said.
Miller's ex-wife, Robin, had asked for the death ruling from Judge Davis so that Social Security benefits could be paid to the couple's two children. Though Robin Miller did not testify Monday, she opposed her ex-husband's petition to reverse the death ruling, saying that she didn't have the money to pay back the Social Security benefits.
Donald Miller provided few details of what he did between his disappearance and 2005, when he returned to Ohio and was informed of the death ruling by his parents. He described himself as an alcoholic who had lost his job at the time of his disappearance. He told Judge Davis that he had worked odd jobs in Atlanta and Florida to make ends meet, but had not sought treatment for his alcoholism or tried to contact his children.
Robin Miller told The Courier that her husband had fled the state because he was scared of a jail term due to unpaid child support. She estimated that he owed over $26,000 at the time of the death ruling.
Miller has the option of appealing to the Social Security Administration, but his lawyer said after the ruling that he did not have the money to do so.
