Mathematics is one of the oldest and most important sciences. Whenever and wherever humans apply their mind to analyzing and modeling, they are doing mathematics. The importance of mathematics is reflected in a multitude of publications. To cope with them, the first abstract journal in mathematics, "Jahrbuch über die Fortschritte der Mathematik" (JFM) was founded in 1868, followed by "Zentralblatt für Mathematik" (zbMATH) in 1932.
Today, both of these abstracting services are made available worldwide via the zbMATH database. zbMATH is an important tool for mathematicians, giving them access to the findings of research in theoretical and applied mathematics of the past 150 years. This knowledge will never be obsolete. FIZ Karlsruhe also offers a wide range of web-based services in mathematics:
- Zentralblatt MATH, the world's most comprehensive reference database in mathematical research
- MathEduc, an international reference database in mathematics and computer science
- the internet portal EMIS European Mathematical Information System (EMIS) in mathematics
- ELibM in EMIS, an open access virtual library in mathematics
Zentralblatt MATH is the world's biggest and most comprehensive reference database in mathematical research, dating back to 1868. Convenient search facilities as well as links to the electronic versions of the articles and to document delivery systems make this database a unique information service in mathematical research and a navigation tool in mathematical literature.
The Mathematics Portal EMIS offers a central access point to all of FIZ Karlsruhe's mathematics databases. Also available are a web search engine for mathematics and special pages dealing with selected topics from applied mathematics and the history and didactics of mathematics, and ELibM, the world's biggest open access digital library in mathematics.
The Electronic Library of Mathematics (ELibM) is an open access virtual library in mathematics. The aim is to provide centralized access to all freely available electronic journals or electronic versions of printed journals in mathematics.

Serving up a new debate daily, this is the place where putting up your dukes and defending your opinion is encouraged.
See All
My Communities
My Discussions
My Email Digests
This particular situation aside, what stand do you take: Is it okay for stepparents to refer to stepkids as theirs?
Why or why not?
Regardless of how you ended up being in the parenting role, you're in it. You should love and respect those kids as they were your own, and expect the same from them (with patience, of course.)
The yuck that happened between the adults that led to divorce and remarriage has nothing to do with the kids, and the adults should put that stuff aside to raise healthy children.
All that said, I know that in so many instances it is far from easy. My heart goes out to blended families, and I wish them peace and joy.
My mother's dad had walk out of her life when she was only 3 along with her mother and 2 siblings. My Gradmother then married an amazing man, my grandpa, which my grandma had 4 more children with. My grandpa never not once refered to the previous 3 children as "step" children and my mother had never called him "step" dad. He was an amazing man and took all 7 of those kids as his own and not just the 4 that were his.
The only reason that someone would be upset about thier child calling some one else "mom" or "dad" is if they were not a prize parent. Anyone that could give so much love as to call a child that is not blood theirs, as alot of love to give.
"5BA"The only reason that someone would be upset about thier child calling some one else "mom" or "dad" is if they were not a prize parent""5C4...as itsashayduh stated, is totally incorrect! It's also incorrect to say it's out of jealousy, immaturity or childish if you don't know the situation, everyone is different! Those are your opinions, not everyone had a grand old time with steps or with the way the person BECAME a step parent.
Lystra (above)hit the nail on the head when she said "5BA"It matter how the people met. If the new stepparent came in when there parents were still married then no.""5C4
She is absolutely right! All scenarios are not loving ones. When a woman KNOWS a man has a family and continues to communicate and have lunches at work, calls his cell, and moves in on a married man and break up a family-then NO WAY are the children going to want, or would I want, them to be calling her Mom! She IS NOT their mother she is a woman Dad left his family for and married=step parent that is it!
After awhile the kids may accept her as "dad's wife", but she has a name and it is not Mom, they HAVE a Mom and no other woman will be their mom. Plain and simple.
Now you may say jealous, immature or what have you, but as I said...that is YOUR opinion due to the fact your scenarios were different.

Bad Ischl, Austria
The apartment is comfortable, with big windows and thus lots of light. Furniture is also nice with a mix of modern and traditional Austrian. It is very well equipped, from slippers to tee bags. The view only partly obstructed by a neighbouring house is on the surrounding mountains and the river and is definitely a plus. With only 10 min walk to the centre the location is perfect and the free parking in front of the house for those that come by car and the short distance to the railway station (5 min walk) make it easily reachable even for public transport. At the same time it is very quiet. The absolute top is the friendliness of the owners that even leave their phone number for cases of emergencies (i.e. if you lock yourself out). Overall, a very pleasant experience. I can definitely recommend the place.
Innsbruck, Austria
equipamento is good, but is very far from old town.

For a while I've been thinking it would be neat to see the perspective of a decrypted natural ally. Particularly an elf or marbit (although gobwin could be interesting too). As we know, marbits and elves don't ally with sides that are allied with hobgobwins, so I think it would be neat to see what they think of being on the same side. Another aspect to explore could be a natural ally chief that has been striped of their title and connection to their side. I don't imagine that happens too often.
The down side to this is that there don't seem to be decrypted natural allies in the main conflict. So the only place we might see one in the near future is in a city Jillian is attacking, or in the city of Gobwin knob. Still, I can hope.

It's been a while- or it feels like it- since we got into Parson's head. Maybe it's just an impression, but we're due for a look in Lord Hamster's brain. After all, there he is, doing something risky and suboptimal, from a powergamer perspective. We know more or less why- not put others in risks he wouldn't face. Who's these others? Would be a time to explore his friendship with Jack, for example, who probably is the one unit at Spacerock that Parson would be most sad to see go. Or Wanda, whose untimely departure would be a frightening event.
Also, I'd like a comic page update about Stanley, swinging both Hammers into battle.
Lilwik wrote:On second thought, instead of a text update I would like a textbook that just explains every detail of magic. I wonder if Rob Balder could be commissioned to create such a thing. Perhaps a Kickstarter could get that to happen.
The rulebook and map are not going to happen for a long time. They'd impact the storytelling too much. For you, they could spoil the dramatically appropriate time to reveal certain mechanics. For me, they would force me to decide certain aspects of the world that I've left intentionally vague until there's a story-driven reason to fill in the blanks. So don't expect those for a couple more books.
I don't believe it. He's already laid out magic in a regular grid and told us the names and axes of every discipline. These are not the sorts of things that he would do if he meant for magic to be intentionally vague. I'm 99% certain that he knows exactly what each discipline of magic does and how it can be explained by the axes of that discipline. I also don't think that it has anything to do with dramatic appropriateness, since he has chosen to reveal so much about the disciplines of magic when he could have hidden them. In the case of magic I think all he is waiting for is a place where he can reveal the details without disrupting the flow of the story by boring us with irrelevant information. That's exactly what a textbook would give him.ftl wrote:I expect the same answer would apply to a "magic textbook".
Actually those are all perfectly consistent with the basic concept of Turnamancy. Turnamancy is on two axes: Erf and Motion. The Erf axis is the one that seems to deal with practical issues, the crudest forms of magic that is merely about getting stuff done like moving piles of dirt from place to place, finding things, or blowing holes in things. The Motion axis is clearly the axis of making things move, so Turnamancy is clearly the magic of speeding things up and getting things going in the crudest sense, and don't be surprised if we discover that it can also slow things down. Dollamancy makes things move in a far more sophisticated way that we all know all about. I have no idea what Weirdomancy does, but I'm sure it has something to do with motion.Taikei no Yuurei wrote:He really seems to like Turnamancers though. Seems they can do absolutely everything.

Intersection | Voting Rights Act and Scams, Cons and Fraud
July 9th, 2013 | WMFE - In their final week of session the United States Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to strike down section four of the historic Voting Rights Act. The provisions of section four required federal pre-clearance for certain voting jurisdictions, including five counties in Florida, before changing any voting rules or regulations. The decision concerns voting rights activists - including the league of women voters. 90.7's Matthew Peddie speaks with co-presidents of the Orange County League of Women Voters Michelle Levy and Sandra Powers about the impact the decision has on Florida and their plan to make sure voters rights are upheld without that section of the act. Also, Florida ranks second in the US for internet fraud reported to the FBI. Researcher and lecturer Bill Kahn talks with Matthew Peddie about some common scams and why people fall for them.

idk about you guys but i cant stop watching tessa and scott's sd! they improved it so much! i've also noticed that their performance of the polka pattern has become more sharper and crisper and peppy. their sd now captures the lightheartedness of the polka
And I keep watchin the FD......I just love love love the new ending.....that choreo lift looks difficult, but more comfortable for them. That part where she kicks and goes down still makes me cringe, not because I don't like it but I'm always afraid she going to hurt her knee (it comes from being so careful of mine after breaking the knee-cap last year). Anyway after I let it sink in for a few days, I think this is one wonderful FD and I hope they they get the kinks out and kick butt at Worlds. There's not another team who can hold a candle to them in my mind.

I am still on cloud nine from seeing them last week. They were so close when they were practicing their free dance - I couldn't think of any celebrity I would rather be that near to. I wondered if I had built Carmen up too much in my mind and I would be disappointed but it had the opposite affect. It felt so real - I felt shattered at the end for Scott. I love the new ending - to me it portrayed a glimmer of hope - followed by the emphatic shake of Tessa's head/torso and you knew this wasn't going to have a happy ending. I still have chills when I remember it.

ETA: I meant to say peakaboo, but hide and seek works as well I guess haha

its my favorite part too
btw the gala started on tsn
So. Nationals inflation aside - anyone freaking out yet?
Just watched USA Nationals FD. I am dissapointed in Tracy Wilson. Now i understand, what people talking about her comments on USA and Canada TV difference.
Could she gave good feed-back to Tessa and Scott? I am not sure.
Did Kurt Brauning didnt work on NBC anymore?
Yeah - the talent in US dance is unbelievable right now!

Do any of you like cool lights and cool displays on your audio gear? If so, will you publicly admit it? I will.
I had always found the dim, anemic, pastel purplish-blue power switch LED's on my JC 1 amps to be aesthetically inappropriate for a big, burly amp. Three guests have specifically commented on the lack of brightness of the JC 1's power switch LED's. One guest, after comparing the dim lights of the JC 1's to the bright, star-like LED's on my preamp, phono preamp, SACD player, and wireless router, asked if there was something wrong with the amp's lights.
Over time, the dim, anemic, pastel purplish-blue LED's began to distract from my musical enjoyment...sort of like an otherwise very beautiful woman with a dark mustache.
I decided to take corrective action. But first, I contacted Parasound to ask if replacing the stock LED's with brighter ones would void the warranty or cause any other unforeseen problems. I was advised that replacing the LED would not void the warranty or cause problems, but the entire face plate would have to be dismantled and I should send the amps back to Parasound or to an authorized service center to have the LED's replaced. Sure Mac....sure. I'd be thrilled to pack up nearly 150 pounds of amplifiers and pay shipping both ways just to have the LED's switched out.:rolleyes:
The fellow I consulted with talked like replacing the LED's was the electronic equivalent of brain surgery. I assured the technical service rep that I had adequate experience with this sort of thing and thanked him for his counsel. I also asked about purchasing a service manual and I was told that SM's for current products are only sold to service centers.
During the course of my research on LED alternatives, I ran across some posts on Audio Asylum that discussed a problem with the power switch LED's on some earlier JC 1's burning out prematurely. There were also some complaints about the power switch LED dimness and color.
Figure 1. The JC 1's stock power switch LED paled into insignificance
compared to the bright blue LED's of my preamps...or even to that of
the red "P" LED above the name plate...or even to that of my wireless
Cosmetic Surgery Procedure
Figure 2. Use care when removing and replacing the 14 flathead hex screws on top and 3 flathead hex screws on each side of the faceplate. The screw heads are easily sheared off if too much force is used. By the way, replacement screws are $3.00 each plus $6.95 shipping. Be careful now.;)
Figure 3. After the top cover and side covers are removed, three Phillips screws must be removed from an aluminum retaining bar.
Figure 4. After the top cover, side plates, retaining bars and faceplate end caps are removed, remove 5 Phillips screws from the bottom of the faceplate.
Use care when handling the faceplate end caps. They are made of plastic and are easily scratched. I don't know if the plastic end caps were a cost cutting measure or if they have some practical design purpose. Every other part on the outer case is either milled or stamped aluminum.
You can use either of two methods to access the screws on the bottom of the faceplate. I had the amplifier resting on a smooth cotton sheet over a granite counter top. It was easy to slide the amp forward just enough for the front edge of the faceplate to extend over the edge of the counter top. Alternatively, you could carefully turn the amp on either side. The faceplate (on my JC 1's) fit snugly over the frame, so it did not just fall off when the last 5 screws were removed. After the bottom screws are removed, ease the amp back into the workplace position and gently slide the faceplate forward until it comes off and then slide it to your right side.
The faceplate will not come completely off unless you disconnect the wires running to the red "P" LED and the thermal warning LED. However, it is really not necessary to disconnect those LED's in order to access the power switch LED board.
It took 11 minutes to take the faceplate apart and access the power switch LED board and another 10 minutes to replace the LED. The most difficult part of the process was removing, transporting, and reinstalling the amps.
Figure 5. The wires leading from the power switch LED circuit board are bound to other wires behind the frame front. A binding strap must be cut to separate the LED wire ribbon so that the board can be removed and brought forward to work on.
Figure 6. How faint. The blue LED is just a common 5 millimeter diameter LED with an intensity of 300 mcd (millicandelas).The pastel purplish-blue light comes from mixing the light from the red and blue LED's.
Figure 7. The stock 300 mcd LED was replaced with a bright blue LED with an intensity of 3460 mcd. This equated to a increase in light intensity 4 times greater than the stock LED. I get pure bright blue light because the red LED's are "drowned out".
The replacement LED's are 5 mm diameter parts with a radiation angle of 15 degrees. They were purchased from LEDSupply.com and cost 88 cents each (part #L1-0-B5TH15-1).
Figure 8. If you decide to try this at home, please don't hold the teeny, tiny LED circuit board with your fingers. An unpleasant accident could occur with the desoldering and soldering irons that close to your fingers. Get help.
Figure 9. Post surgery, the power switch was surrounded by a bright blue halo.:)
Figure 10. If I sit the JC 1's directly on the audio cabinet bottom, the bottom of the door frames cover the power switch and thermal overload LED's. That is not a good thing. A couple of 16" x 18" x 2" solid maple cutting boards raised the JC 1's to the required visual height.
The cutting boards had no effect on the sound. Which is what I expected. The JC 1 has a highly damped frame and was designed to be highly resistant to sonic degradation due to internally and externally generated vibration. The cutting boards have the additional practical benefit of making the JC 1's much easier to slide in and out of my audio cabinet. By the way, those are just common kitchen cutting boards. I didn't believe that the much more expensive, audiophile approved, "isolation stand" cutting boards were warranted in this application.:)
Figure 11. Ahhhhh....much better. Now the JC 1's can keep up with the rest of the two channel light show.:) Such Good Light.

Evening Readingby Brian Leahy, Sep 08, 2010 5:00pm PDT
Similar to StarCraft II, I've begun publishing multiplayer guides for Halo: Reach, which comes out next week. Are these things you enjoy reading? It's a bit selective as it requires a good amount of proficiency at a game to be able to write a guide, but it's definitely something the Shacknews team can look into producing for new games moving forward... if we happen to be skilled at them.
What other games would you like to see guides written for?
Gaming News o'the Day
- Big, expensive Kinect bundle announced.
- Blizzard releases its first official custom map for SCII.
- Square Enix working on a new Dissidia game.

Philip Hersh chose Yu-Na as the golden lady of the year! yay!!!!
Last edited by l'etoile; 12-24-2010 at 08:49 AM.
by Philip Hersh.
Gold: Yuna Kim, figure skating, South Korea. Despite the enormous weight of her country's expectations, the most celebrated athlete in South Korea gave her nation the celebration it wanted with breathtaking skating and a runaway victory.
Silver: Lindsey Vonn, alpine skiing, U.S. Not only did she win the Olympic downhill despite a badly bruised shin and the pressure of being the most publicized U.S. athlete, Vonn won a bronze in Super-G; a third straight World Cup overall title; a third straight World Cup downhill title; and 11 Cup races to become the all-time U.S. leader.
Bronze: Wang Meng, short track speedskating, China. The unpredictability of this sport makes it more impressive that Wang, a heavy favorite in the shorter races, won both the Olympic 500 (for the second straight time) and the 1,000 as well as gold in the relay.
This too will pass away.
Mao is not a child and she should be accountable for the contacts made for her coaching arrangement. Imagine what it would have been like if a similar thing had happened between, say, Michelle and Sasha or Irina.
^ Guys! do you wanna keep going on it?
If you do, I'll make you another thread at Trash Can?
This too will pass away.
I, too, was so fed up with ppl throwing the same trash in every yuna's thread and I seriously wondered if anyone has something real this time
maybe I should have my coffee and play the violin everytime those things come up
btw, I love your quotation. "This too will pass away." Isn't it Yuna's favorite saying?

Chill guys, tis the season to be jolly Lala lala laaar~ la La la Laaaarrr~!!
Merry Christmas!!
A great x-mas video featuring Yuna:
By Brian Cazeneuve > INSIDE OLYMPIC SPORTS
Sports Illustrated
Kim Yu-Na
South Korea, figure skating
Kim won the ladies title at the Vancouver Winter Games, capturing Korea's first Olympic figure skating medal. She did it by earning the highest marks in both the short program (78.50) and the long (150.06), establishing a new record for highest combined score (228.56) since the sport changed to its current scoring tables. Though she trained primarily in Canada, away from the national spotlight, Kim was under enormous pressure to win gold for her country as the reigning world champion and Korea's most recognized and best-compensated athlete. In her free skate in Vancouver, she landed six triple jumps and skated a stunning routine to Gershwin, living up to her nickname "Queen Yu-na."
This too will pass away.
Some actual footages of Yuna training in LA from a Japanese Tv show?!
How in the world they managed to go inside and video taped her?
They also used some footage from a public session, which doesn't really count.
These guys have been hanging around EWIP for the past week and were thrown out when shooting the practice session. They have since parked themselves across the street..hence the fuzzy videos of Yuna entering EWIP.
What is it they say..all press is good press, as long as they spell your name correctly?
I find it fascinating that Japanese TV is keeping the Yuna/Mao flames burning.
Happy Skating!

(BPT) - A professional certification may not always be a job requirement, but it is often a deciding factor between qualified candidates. In fact, technology is one of the most in-demand career fields, but recent graduates and professionals are both struggling to find new jobs or get promoted because they don't have a certification - a third-party validation of their skills.
One of the most sought-after career credentials in the tech industry is the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) Routing and Switching. Tech professionals with this certification take home salaries that are, on average, 16.7 percent higher than their uncertified peers, according to a Fairfield Research study. This certification acknowledges that someone is skilled to install, configure, operate and troubleshoot routed and switched networks.
'Studies show that chief information officers prefer Cisco Certified professionals because they are 42 percent more effective at resolving issues and decrease network downtime by 32 percent,' says Stephanie Kelly, corporate affairs business development for Cisco, citing results of a 2013 Employer Value of Cisco Certification and Training study. 'Employers prefer to have someone they know is fully capable of handling a very technical, niche job.'
Despite the growing demand from employers and because certifications aren't an industry or government mandate, some recent graduates and professionals try to play the odds and skip additional credentials due to the financial obstacle. Between study materials, pre-tests and exams, certifications can cost as much as $1,000. Now, select career colleges, like Westwood College, are pitching in by paying for their students' exams to help attain a certification in their chosen field.
'We began running CCNA Routing and Switching review courses for students who passed courses offered through the Cisco Networking Academy. Students who took advantage of and successfully completed the review course were issued a voucher worth the cost of the exams,' says Dean Gouin, chief executive officer of Westwood College. 'We know it takes a lot of work to achieve this credential and we believe it is important so we'll continue to encourage our students to challenge themselves to do so.'
In addition to paying for the exams, Westwood, a nationally accredited on-campus and online career college, also covers the exam costs for medical assisting graduates to help them attain Certified Medical Assistants status. In addition to the actual exam, the college pays for practice exams and ensures all study materials are pre-purchased. Visit tech.westwood.edu for more information and behind-the-scenes footage about the college, and specific programs such as CCNA Routing and Switching.

Just what he wanted! -

My 10 year old son has wanted a "real" top hat for a while - one like magicians use. His plastic one was in shambles. This hat was exactly right for us! Great price and strong enough for play.
Halloween Costume -
C. Smith, N/A
Great shipping time, good durable top hot. We used it to finish off a Slash Halloween Costume. It did the trick!
Good for the money -
D3icidal, Brooklyn NY
Okay the thing is only $6, so I can't expect the world. Its felt so its higher quality then plastic and only a slight step down from the $15 ones. Mine came a tiny bit distorted and dinged, but it bent right back into place. If your looking for something to really impress and show off, spend the $15.

|Russell Brenna, 79
|Written by TRF Times
Cloquet - Russell Morris Brenna, 79 of Cloquet, formerly of Moose Lake died Sunday, November 7, 2004 in Community Memorial Hospital in Cloquet.
Funeral services will be held on Friday, November 12, at Northland Funeral Home in Cloquet. Fellowship and lunch will follow in the Fireside Room of the funeral home.
He was born January 7, 1925 in Middle River, to Calmer and Sigrid (Huset) Brenna. Russell married Jeanne Lee on September 30, 1950 in Middle River. They made their home in Cloquet where Russ worked as a mechanic at Potlatch from 1953 until retiring in 1986. During the 1960's he also worked at Roy Wilson's gas station. After his retirement from Potlatch, he moved to Moose Lake. He worked at the Surplus Store and also enjoyed delivering Meals on Wheels. He was a member of the Potlatch Quarter Century Club and Hope Lutheran Church in Moose Lake where he was active on the stewardship committee and was also an usher. In April of this year, Russ moved back to Cloquet.
In 1996 Russ was awarded the Certificate of Commendation from Governor Arne Carlson in recognition and honor for being an Outstanding Senior Citizen in Carlton County.
Russell's greatest love was his wife and family. He devoted everything to them. Everything he said and did was done with his family in mind. He will be sadly missed but he's finally at rest and in no more pain. Russ was proud of his background and work ethic. He loved fishing, telling stories, playing his accordion, and he knew how to fix and remodel everything.
Russ was preceded in death by four sisters and three brothers.
He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Jeanne; his five children, Rhonda (Flip) Mastey and Russell Brenna both of Sartell, Chuck Brenna of Casa Grande, Ariz., Carrie Harildstad of Walhalla, N.D., and Kristi (Ted) Stockland of Cloquet; sisters, Iva (Laverne) Lindahl of Thief River Falls and Sonia (Wayne) Wegge of International Falls; brothers, Calmer Brenna Jr. of Lillington, North Carolina and Warren Brenna of Thief River Falls; eleven grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; five step-grandchildren, four step-great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.

I've been hardcore tube for more than 10 years now. I've owned so many designs using different types of tubes, I've tube rolled, played around with different gear combination, etc. I love tubes.
I've also gone through countless pairs of speakers.
My experience with good quality SS amplification is nowhere near as much as tubes. However, there is something I really like about SS power that I still haven't heard a tube amp do.
To my ears, it's a different type of presentation compared to tubes. This characteristic adds it's own kind of drama to the music that I really like. I'm talking about that sense of power I hear on good SS amps.
I've tried SS on 83db/w/m speakers all the way to 104db/w/m. Even 120w/ch SS made my Klipsch La Scala (104db) sound extremely powerful with insane dynamics and weight to the sound. A powerful push-pull tube amp is the only way to come close to this on the La Scala. But it also has it's own kind of magic when running low powered tube amps in SE or SET config all the way down to 3w/ch.
Powerful is the only word I can think of to describe the SS sound. Dynamics swings, weight, power and bass is closer to what I hear in live music. People talk about tube magic. To me, this is SS magic. At the moment, I'm running RT1000p on 120w/ch NAD combination and I'm in heaven. Maybe in a few months I will try my LSi9. The only tube in the signal path is the buffer stage in my cd player (Original CD-A8T).
I have to say, I enjoy SS as much as tubes. Each have their own unique sound to my ears. I will no longer limit my choices of amplification to tubes. I plan to try a high end SS amp for my next purchase.
The only speakers I feel are much better on tubes are Fostex and Lowther single drivers. I was able to get SS to sound excellent on them by using a gainclone.
I guess that's all I wanted to say. Make sure you guys keep your options open in this audio journey and enjoy the music as much as possible. A lot of times you end up loving a set up you thought you never would just a year ago. I know some people are die hard tube heads (I was one of them), but SS is just as enjoyable. There are so many stuff out there to try (new and used). I'm going to play around with SS again. Audio is such a great thing.

2013 Fine Art Series
Oklahoma City - Nationally-collected and aptly-named painter Joy Richardson's brilliant paintings will be shown in the South Lobby of the Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory Jan. 24-Feb. 28. A free-to-the-public opening reception will be held Jan. 24 from 5-7pm.
"As a child, I ruined my mother's appetite for cakes as I frosted them in great goopy swirls of yellow, red and purple – until she hid the food coloring. I've always adored color! My view of the world is that it IS all about color, asymmetry/symmetry, and texture. My bold vivid abstract canvases express those principles," said Richardson.
"Art lovers tell me that my paintings make them happy. COLOR! My world
is all about color! Lively pigments spark my life. Dreams in vivid tones
saturate my mind at night and I can't wait to awaken and splash my
latest mental hue across a canvas. That just might
be the reason that others have defined me as a "colorist." Acrylic is
my medium as I'm able to finesse from one subtlety of hue to another
with the inherent blending properties of acrylics.
Energetic tone and texture intertwine uniquely against a serene backdrop, often with a saucy jolt that leaves the viewer ruminating about why he is uplifted. My works have a timeless appeal, as there is no discernible object identified. The nuances that occur while blending my own color combinations create unprecedented new shades for which the dictionary hasn't names yet!"
Richardson was born in Cleveland, OH, and came to Oklahoma to attend school in Edmond before graduating from the University of Oklahoma with a degree in fashion art and a minor in journalism. Her art is collected across the country and can be found in galleries including Santa Fe's Canyon Road Contemporary, Walt Horton Fine Art, Beaver Creek, CO., Vinya, Dallas, and several galleries in Oklahoma City including JRB and Dodson. She has been juried into Oklahoma City's acclaimed Festival of the Arts five times.
All works in the exhibition are available for purchase and a portion of the proceeds will benefit the Myriad Botanical Gardens.For more information visit www.myriadgardens.org or call 405.445.7080.

"Love This Shade!"
By leongus from NY, NY
Due to a house fire, I had to replace every shade in the house. I looked for a cellular that wasn't a solid color. This was perfect. Chose the top down bottom up feature for the bathroom as it affords privacy yet the top can remain open leaving light in the room. Well made. Love the fact that it filters the light. Delighted with this purchase! Fit to perfection.View this product

Madison - The state Judicial Commission has told its special prosecutor - at least for the moment - not to pursue new avenues to forward its ethics case against state Supreme Court Justice David Prosser.

StrategyThe fund equally allocates its assets to three cornerstone funds each with a 50-year track record run independently by the Franklin, Templeton or Mutual Series management groups.
These underlying funds - Franklin Income Fund, Templeton Growth Fund and Mutual Shares Fundinvest in attractively valued stocks and bonds in the U.S. and abroad.
RisksAll investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal.
Because the fund invests in underlying funds that may engage in a variety of investment strategies involving certain risks, Franklin Templeton Founding Funds Allocation Fund may be subject to these same risks.
Stock prices fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and dramatically, due to factors affecting individual companies, particular industries or sectors, or general market conditions.
Bonds are affected by changes in interest rates and the credit worthiness of their issuers. Bond prices generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. Thus, as the prices of bonds adjust to a rise in interest rates, the fund's share price may decline.
Higher-yielding, lower-rated corporate bonds entail a greater degree of credit risk compared to investment-grade securities.
Foreign investing carries additional risks such as currency and market volatility and political or social instability; risks which are heightened in developing countries.
Value securities may not increase in price as anticipated or may decline further in value.
These and other risks are discussed in the fund's prospectus.
PerformancePast performance is no guarantee of future performance. Both the return and principal value of subaccounts will fluctuate so that when redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. An investment in the fund is subject to risk including possible loss of principal.

Inside the Toronto Life Most Influential party: 37 pictures of stylish guests celebrating the city's top-ranked people
See all the pictures from the Toronto Life Most Influential party »
Last night Toronto Life celebrated the reveal of their Most Influential list by toasting Toronto's 50 most influential people at The Ritz-Carlton. The lucky heavyweights—ranging from politicians to bankers to TV personalities—were profiled in the magazine's December issue and, as the evening's emcee Amanda Lang was eager to point out, also given a definitive rank. (Her 41st place spot obviously not affecting said eagerness.) Upon our arrival it was clear how those on the list have become so successful: they're certainly not the familiar faces of Toronto's late-night party circuit. The mood was much more about networking than clamouring for a cocktail, despite the impressive array of Ketel One and Tanqueray creations. Tailored suits and black dresses dominated—though oxblood items and fur accessories proved to be just as popular, including many a lush stole and a pair of furry booties on Leesa Butler. Partygoers joked about the possibility of Drake (who was ranked 32nd) showing up and rumours circulated that his friends had RSVP'd. Perhaps they meant fellow Degrassi alum Lauren Collins? By 8pm the mood of the Toronto Life Most Influential party had shifted (the premium Johnnie Walker tastings may have helped) and Andrea Bolley started a mini dance floor in the centre of the room. So it was to the dismay of many guests when the lights turned on a few hours later, announcing that the night had come to an end.
