This week, the first grade students celebrated some February holidays! First, they learned all about Punxatawny Phil, the groundhog who looks for his shadow every February 2nd. Then, we sang a fun Groundhog's Day song. One child was selected to be the groundhog, sleeping in the center of the circle. Following the beat of the song, the other students walked around the groundhog while singing. At the end of the song the sleeping groundhog woke up, and named the first person that he or she saw. That new friend became the next groundhog! Chinese New Year will be celebrated on Monday, Feb. 8th so our students learned a Chinese dragon song and the traditions of this holiday. The Chinese New Year is based on the traditional lunar calendar and this year is the year of the monkey! Next week we will learn the dragon dance.
The second graders continued their fun instrument family activity: the Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra interactive game! They learned all about the instruments in the string and brass family, and how their sound is produced. Next week, we will finish the game with the percussion family!
This was a BIG week for our third grader friends! They all took their notation test, then finally received their recorders! If your child is in third grade, here are a few important things to keep in mind:
- The students need to bring their recorders to class for each music day.
- Mrs. Rzasa and I will be taking "recorder attendance," and three or more unprepared days will result in a call home. The students will learn best when they have their instrument in school!
- Recorders are only allowed to be played in music and outside of school. Please remind your child not to play on the bus or in their regular classroom.
- To help students succeed, home practice is necessary. Please have your child aim for 5 minutes each day. Of course, more is always good too! Since the recorders are new, they will likely practice a lot- but this may fade in the coming weeks. Ask your child to play for you to help encourage them!
- To clean the recorders, you may wash them with warm soapy water, or place them in the TOP RACK of the dishwasher.
- Thank you- we appreciate your patience and support as your child learns a new instrument!
** The third graders will also have an instrumental concert on Tuesday, June 7th at 8:30am. This concert will include violins and recorders.
The fourth and fifth graders enjoyed composing their classroom composition with their partner(s). Many of the groups completed their compositions and had an opportunity to select a percussion instrument to perform the composition on.
In chorus this week, the students continued to work on the Painless Opera. Our fourth grade students finished learning Haydn's, "Surprise Symphony" and added some hilarious hand movements.
We hope you all have fun watching Superbowl 50 this Sunday!!!

Crystal Fung's Pragmatic Approach to a Successful Relationship
By hailey on July 15, 2019 in NEWS
Though crowned Miss Hong Kong 2016, Crystal Fung (馮盈盈) is known for her down-to-earth personality and bluntness. Crystal has been dating Dr. Martin Chung (鍾文浩) for four years, and the couple moved in together recently. The 25-year-old actress shared her pragmatic approach in love, and how they manage to make the relationship work despite their busy careers..
Crystal and Martin agreed on some basic guidelines to go by in their relationship:
- They will be flexible with each other
Originally when Crystal entered the Miss Hong Kong pageant, she deleted all content related to her boyfriend in hopes that the public would not disturb him. However, Crystal realized that it was difficult to escape the spotlight after being crowned, so they agreed to be upfront about their relationship with the media.
- They will accept and support each other's life changes and choices
Most men try to persuade their girlfriends from entering the pageant, but Martin thoroughly supported Crystal. On the night of the pageant, he sat alongside her mother to cheer on Crystal.
- They must not disobey their law
Since Crystal is now in the entertainment industry, she has to work in close range with other male co-stars. Crystal had once promised Martin that she will avoid kissing scenes whenever possible. Also, Crystal will not exchange numbers with any male artiste.
- They will reveal their relationship publicly
It is inevitable that their relationship would be exposed after Crystal was crowned Miss Hong Kong. In order to avoid any male fans from fantasizing, she immediately admitted to having a boyfriend. She is also open to sharing pictures of Martin and herself on social media.
- They will help each other grow
Before filming for her doctor role in Big White Duel, Crystal asked Martin for advice about a professional delivery. Through Martin, Crystal was able to understand the details in the medical field and how to present her role most naturally like a doctor.
- She is active in his world
Crystal takes the initiative to join Martin's gatherings and dinners with his colleagues and doctor friends. Crystal took the opportunity to learn by becoming more active in Martin's social circle.
- Loving someone means loving the family too
While filming of Big White Duel, Crystal's mother was suddenly hospitalized because of a heart attack. Crystal could not leave the filming set, but she was thankful that Martin took care of the situation and kept her updated throughout the entire ordeal. She is grateful that Martin treats her mother so well and loves her like his own family.
- Trial marriage
Since the couple recently moved in together, Crystal is starting to learn how to do her own chores. She feels very motivated and happy when she sees a clean and happy home. As the couple learns to lead a life together, could this lead to wedding bells soon?
- They want to save money together
The couple is working hard to save money for their future. Since they just moved in together, it's still too early to get married. Also, Crystal wants more time to mature and develop in her career. She said, "I need to build my independence first after moving out. I need to learn how to take care of someone else before I can take the responsibility of becoming a wife or mother."

A handheld digital scanner is a lightweight, portable device that can connect to various local radio broadcasts. It's a great option for people who want to stay up-to-date in emergencies or enjoy amateur radio broadcasts.
Handheld digital scanners are frequently battery-operated; some come with a rechargeable battery pack. The typical handheld digital scanner performs for several hours at a time and, thanks to its heavy-duty construction, can be used in rain, snow, and other inclement conditions.
The following features are important to consider when you're searching for the perfect handheld digital scanner.
Frequencies: The best handheld digital scanners pick up AM, FM, and digital frequencies. But buyer beware: some handheld digital scanners pick up only one or two of these three.
Storage capacity: For those who want immediate access to specific frequencies, a handheld digital scanner that offers a large storage capacity is ideal. Some handheld digital scanners offer storage space for more than 38,000 frequencies. Additionally, handheld digital scanners are available that can be used with a microSD card so you can further increase your scanner's storage space.
Power source: Handheld digital scanners usually require batteries or a battery pack. For scanners that require batteries, AA or AAA batteries may be used, and up to four may be required at a time. For scanners that require a battery pack, the pack itself is rechargeable and is likely sold with the device. Some scanners can also be used with a USB charger.
Construction: If you plan to use your handheld digital scanner in bad weather, choose a waterproof model. This scanner will continue to perform even in if gets wet.
Buttons and display: If you're nearsighted, you should have no trouble using a scanner with an extra-large color screen and large buttons. If you plan to use your scanner both day and night, a unit with a backlit LCD keypad is a good choice because it will illuminate the device's keys and screen.
Channels: Handheld digital scanners may feature dozens or hundreds of channels that allow you to monitor emergencies, check weather updates, and listen to music.
Banks and lists: Some handheld digital scanners allow you to program channels on your device. These scanners frequently offer list capabilities, so you can set up categories for channels like "Police" and "Fire" and immediately access them.
GPS: If your handheld digital scanner has GPS compatibility, it can instantly detect your location and pick up frequencies wherever you are.
Simultaneous charging and scanning: If you want a handheld digital scanner that recharges as you scan for frequencies and channels, pick one that offers simultaneous charging and scanning. But remember, scanners that offer simultaneous charging and scanning tend to be more expensive than others.
Range: A handheld digital scanner with a range of 400 to 500 MHz should easily pick up frequencies in any location. Of course, the greater a scanner's range, the more frequencies you'll be able to pick up.
Battery life: Battery life for a handheld digital scanner usually lasts at least four hours. Keep in mind that you may be able to pick up high-powered batteries to keep your scanner running longer. Alternatively, you could choose a scanner with a rechargeable battery pack.
Data cloning: If you have a handheld digital scanner that you've already programmed but are ready to upgrade to a new model, consider one that has data cloning capabilities. With data cloning, you can take the frequencies and channels that are stored on your current scanner and transfer them to your new device.
Digital AGC: A handheld digital scanner with digital automatic gain control (AGC) compensates for low user audio levels on different frequencies you monitor. This means that with digital AGC, you'll be able to listen to different frequencies at the same volume.
Windows PC-based programming: Some handheld digital scanners require you to use a Windows PC to program your device. If you fail to use a Windows PC to program one of these scanners, you won't be able to use all of the device's features.
Accessories: A handheld digital scanner is sometimes sold with a belt clip, earpiece, and hand strap. These accessories are convenient, but they are not absolutely necessary to use a handheld digital scanner.
Software compatibility: Various handheld digital scanners are not compatible with CHIRP, an open-source programming software for scanners. Also, not all handheld digital scanners are compatible with RT programming software.
It typically doesn't take long to set up a handheld digital scanner. In some instances, the manufacturer provides detailed instructions so you can start using the device right away.
Handheld digital scanner reception varies based on weather, the existence of nearby buildings and trees, and other factors.
Some handheld digital scanners offer both automatic and manual channel-programming capabilities. These scanners allow you to enter your zip code to immediately access channels and manually add channels any time you choose.
The base price range for a handheld digital scanner is $200 or less. Scanners in this price range tend to be battery-operated and may allow you to program hundreds of channels.
In the $200 to $400 range, you'll find scanners that offer extensive memory, location-based scanning, and preemptive trunking priority capabilities.
The highest price range for handheld digital scanners falls between $400 and $600. Scanners of this quality often come equipped with state-of-the-art software and follow communications on APCO 25 Phase 1, Phase 2, Motorola, and other trunked systems.
An intuitive and high-performing digital handheld scanner
The Whistler Digital Handheld Scanner delivers a wonderful blend of convenience and durability. It offers Object Oriented programming, which means you can program the device in just minutes. The scanner can be used with or without batteries and is sold with an AC adapter for seamless recharging.
Understand the legal ramifications associated with misuse of a handheld digital scanner. U.S. airwaves are considered public property, and you are forbidden from using a scanner to listen in on phone calls and encrypted communications. In some states, you cannot use a handheld digital scanner while driving.
Examine the microvolts. Handheld digital scanner sensitivity is measured in microvolts. If you plan to use your scanner in a rural setting, choose one that has a low number of microvolts and a high sensitivity.
Evaluate selectivity. Selectivity is key if you plan to use your handheld digital scanner in an urban setting. This feature ensures you can select a specific station, regardless of whether there is another station on a nearby frequency.
Review scanning speed. A scanning speed of 16 channels per second is usually sufficient if you're going through a limited number of channels. But if you plan to listen to a wide array of channels on your scanner, choose a device that comes with a higher scanning speed.
Affordable and masterfully constructed
The BaoFeng Two-Way Radio is a high-powered and economical handheld digital scanner. It comes with a large battery and handy built-in flashlight. The device is also backed by concierge customer support.
The BTECH Tri-Band Radio is a quality handheld digital scanner that won't break your budget. It is easy to program on Windows, Linux, and OSX devices. Plus, the scanner offers on-the-go selectable frequency range scanning for added convenience.
The Uniden True I/Q Digital Handheld Scanner is a terrific option for those who want a high-end scanner that will continue to perform over time. The scanner is intended for use in weak-signal and simulcast areas and has a rugged construction. Although this scanner is equipped with many best-in-class features, it also costs more than many comparable scanners.
Q. Does a handheld digital scanner work the same way as a walkie-talkie?
A. A handheld digital scanner and a walkie-talkie are roughly the same size and weight, but the similarities end there. With a handheld digital scanner, you can listen to local radio broadcasts and emergency updates. Meanwhile, a walkie-talkie ensures you can communicate with another person who is using a walkie-talkie on the same frequency at the same time.
Q. How does a handheld digital scanner differ from a base model?
A. A handheld digital scanner is designed for use just about anywhere. It fits conveniently in your hand, and you can carry it in your pocket or a backpack. The device also runs on batteries. A base scanner is a fixed unit that you can use only at one location. It is usually mounted in a home or vehicle.
Q. What are the differences between "phase one" and "phase two" handheld digital scanners?
A. Digital phase one scanners feature approximately twice the number of channels available on analog scanners. Digital phase two scanners offer extra channels in addition to those available on digital phase one models.

Even if it's someone you have previously worked with and have every confidence that they'll meet their deadline, it's conceivable that you need more information about what's involved in accomplishing the work. Perhaps for reporting or tracking purposes, for example, you may need to know about the steps involved or milestones in getting to their end result.
How can you ask for details that may not, in fact, be necessary to the person doing the work without being perceived as trying to micromanage? The most important thing is make sure the team member understands why you need the lower-level information. In the absence of an example or clear explanation of reporting or tracking requirements, many people are going to infer a lack of trust in a request for more detail than what they're initially interested in providing.
The following three ideas can also help a project manager engage a resistant team member in providing more detail about their project work:
- Suggest breaking down the work into smaller chunks to make it easier to share the work load or include others in accomplishing the result. If they decompose the work into smaller level activities or tasks, perhaps there are things that could be done by others.
- Present it as an opportunity to teach others. If the team member can break down what it is they do to get their work done, it is easier to show and train others how to do it. Even if it's not entirely repeatable, knowledge transfer requires some level of decomposition, and teaching others is usually an appealing personal development opportunity as well as valuable to the team and organization overall.
- Consider the information in the context of risk. Breaking down the work presents opportunities for identifying risks that might otherwise be missed. Engaging the team member in that discussion may yield ideas that even they hadn't considered in terms of possible threats.
When project managers have a need for more details than team members are initially willing to provide regarding the work they do, these perspectives can help soften resistance by showing team members how they can contribute to something rather than making them feel like they are being needlessly imposed upon or, worse, not trusted.
So go ahead ask: "Tell me more about what's involved in getting that done."

French librettist and playwright Jules Barbier (1825–1901) wrote for all the major French composers of his day, including Gounod, Meyerbeer, Bizet, Thomas, Saint-Saëns and Offenbach.
Barbier was born in Paris. He began his career while a teenager, writing short comedies. Later successes as a playwright included Jeanne d'Arc, with incidental music by Gounod. Both as a librettist and playwright he often worked in collaboration with Michel Carré, including on his first libretto Galathée in 1852 for Massé. Barbier and Carré had their greatest contemporary success with Gounod's Faust, adapted from Goethe's play. Their other librettos for Gounod included Philémon et Baucis and Roméo et Juliette, and for Thomas Mignon, Hamlet and Françoise de Rimini.
After Carré's death in 1872 Barbier collaborated mainly with his son Pierre, including on Daphnis et Chloë for Maréchal and Le Tasse for D'Harcourt.

Dear Abandonia visitors: We are a small team that runs one of the largest DOS Games websites in the world. We have only 3 members of staff, but serve 450,000 users and have outgoing costs like any other top site for example: our servers, power, rent, programs, and staff. Abandonia is something special. It is a library of old games for you to download. It is like an old gaming arcade with all the old games in their original format. Abandonia is a place where you can find great old games and have fun four hours and years. To protect our independence, we are dependent of our friends using the site. We run on donations averaging around 6 USD (5 Euro). If everyone reading this gave the price of a cup of coffee, our fundraiser would be made easier. If Abandonia is useful to you, take one minute to keep it online for another year. Please help us forget fundraising and get back to Abandonia.
Kings of the Beach is yet another very successful game in the series of excellent sports games by Electronic Arts. You can say they really were on a streak in the early Nineties. Just like all the others, this game is simple, high quality and very entertaining. There is not much to say about this game, as it is exactly what it's supposed to be - a beach volleyball game. You can play with the computer or a friend. There are two modes available: practice and tournament. In practice mode you can perfect your skills, and once you feel ready, you can enroll in the tournament. There you will face many opponents, each of whom has been given a short description. Of course, the farther you get in the tournament, the more skilled your opponents will be. That is pretty much everything about gameplay. The graphics are just fine - nothing spectacular, but they serve their purpose - and the sound is also satisfactory. So, I give this game a 4, since it's exactly what it is supposed to be - no more, no less - an excellent way to get your mind off things and go play some volleyball on a hot, sunny California beach. :)

Yes, for now...
Yes, for now...
"Is reality a simulation?" seems to be a loaded question that most people find mind-bending in both implication and potential.
For an excellent review of the issue, watch this video.
Also, it's worth watching these three short videos on the Game of Life simulation (which, BTW, was first invented on a Go board, not on a computer).
However, it seems to me the bigger, or more relevant question is, how does this theory change our lives?
I have no problem accepting that reality is a relatively sophisticated simulation, just as I can easily accept the idea that intelligence, human or otherwise, is a form of AI within this simulation. In fact, it makes perfect sense that we are a form of error-correcting algorithms embedded in a class of self-preserving functions. Rationally speaking, there is no reason to believe we are not advanced computers programmed to express the ideal form of Intelligence, which we have labeled "divine". The only opposition to this idea is our own sense of self-importance, that we are somehow more than simply organic circuits (which requires we deliberately limit our idea of what a circuit is).
A thought-provoking side note: The goal of AI is to create "rational agents" that will work faster and better than humans because humans are not very rational or efficient. We may have discovered the rules of reason, but we tend to ignore them more than not. Given that, one might hypothesize that if sentient life is a form of AI within a simulation, then our goal may be to, likewise, become more effective agents of the intelligence that created us, as they (our hypothetical creators), presumably, tend to not be very good at whatever they are trying to do, and for which we were programmed. Given the chaos and drama of the life of the gods as described in myths, I would say this makes perfect sense.
On the other hand, I also have no problem imagining humanity as the battleground of good and evil ruled over by demons and angels, gods and mythical monsters, as it was believed for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.
If I could see through the eyes of a dog or a bird, I suspect I would have no problem seeing reality, in whatever way dogs and birds understand that, as perfectly valid as well.
Our level and perspective of understanding are going to be the lenses through which we see reality. In 1,000 years I am sure reality will be seen in a radically different way, and it too will be perfectly valid for our descendants 33 generations from now.
Personally, I believe that we discover the reality that we are looking for. Modern scientists will tell you that photons existed since the beginning of time, but they will also tell you that nothing exists until it is observed, nothing but a probability field. It does not seem unreasonable to me that just as the act of observation causes a shift that collapses wave functions to particles, the act of searching causes a shift in probability fields. i.e. if we are looking for atoms, then the self-organizing properties of reality will create the fields that would most likely be necessary to allow atoms to exist, and viola, we "discover" quanta. But this is a topic for another post.
This perspective and understanding of the times will also attempt to answer the question "Why?", regardless of whether reality is a divine testing ground, a simulation, a journey of survival, or whatever question is relevant to our models of reality?
But an even bigger question has been asked throughout all these interpretations, one that has not changed for the plant, the cat the human or even the gods, and that is, what shall we do with/in this reality? What is important?
There are two potential answers to this question
1) What is important is to discover the Great Truth, be it in the form of God, or Unification Theory, self-realization, or however one understands the Great Truth.
2) Exactly the same as Option 1, but without the assumptions that the Great Truth is something that already exists but rather something that we are trying to create.
Option 2 makes a lot more sense if we are indeed a simulation. What would be the point of creating a simulated reality just to see if the inhabitants can find the answer, like rats in a maze? We create simulations to test out various scenarios in order to learn something, to test a hypothesis.
However, Option 1 makes more sense if we believe that reality is a testing ground wherein we prove to the gods we are worthy.
This is a good metaphorical example of Option 1
Still, in both scenarios, the questions of "what is important?" is equally relevant.
So, because I am supremely lazy and not as smart as I'd like to be I choose to focus on that question, as it is the only question I can answer with absolute certainty, and which is in my control. I think it is better to ask "Where am I going, and why am I going there" when I get into a car, rather than asking "How do combustion engines work, and why?" (and hope my car doesn't break down).
So, my answer to "Do we live in a simulation?" is ", maybe... I don't know, nor do I care. What I will do in this reality, simulated or otherwise, is what is important to me."

As we continue our enjoyable journey through the book of 2 Timothy in our Sunday morning services, we camped out in a text that elaborates on some activities that a pastor must engage in. While this sermon focused on application for the pastor, it also identifies the activities that a church should expect from its spiritual leader.
You can download my sermon notes by clicking this link, "Some Instructions for Your Pastor" (2 Timothy 2:14-19)", and/or watch the sermon below.

From December 9 to 11, the Chicago Council on Global Affairs conducted a poll in South Korea on South Korean attitudes toward the United States, the alliance between the two countries, and the ongoing negotiations about host-nation financial support. Below are the primary findings.
- A large majority (92%) of the South Korean public supports their country's alliance with the United States. This is largely unchanged since 2014 when polling by the Asan Institute in South Korea found support for the alliance at 96 percent. Two-thirds (63%) say that the alliance with the United States benefits both countries (26% say the alliance primarily benefits the United States; 8% percent say that South Korea is the primary beneficiary).
- Three-quarters (74%) support the long-term stationing of US soldiers in South Korea and nearly nine in ten (87%) say the presence of US troops in South Korea contributes to South Korea's national security either a great deal (47%) or a fair amount (40%).
- Seven in ten say US extended deterrence contributes either a great deal (27%) or a fair amount (44%) to South Korea's national security. (Note: The question wording in Korean offered a brief explanation of extended deterrence, explaining that if a country allied with the United States was attacked the United States could respond with nuclear weapons.)
- Confidence is high that the United States would defend South Korea if it were attacked by North Korea: 78 percent say they are either very confident (31%) or somewhat confident (47%). A majority (56%) believe South Korea alone could defeat North Korea in an armed conflict.
- Ninety-four percent say that relations with the United States are either very important (66%) or somewhat important (29%) to South Korea's security. Eight in ten (86%) say the same about China, 83 percent for North Korea, and 69 percent say so about Japan.
- Sixty-two percent of South Koreans say that South Korea should strengthen relations with the United States even if this might diminish relations with China; 30 percent favor strengthening relations with China even if this might diminish relations with the United States.
- Despite general affirmation of the alliance, South Koreans do not necessarily see the United States and their own country working in the same direction on key security issues. Fifty-five percent say the two countries are working in different directions on regional security (37% say they are working in the same direction). Fifty-two percent say the United States and South Korea are working in different directions on denuclearizing North Korea (42% same direction).
- Some may sense a disconnect with the United States on US demands to increase host-nation financial support. Nearly seven in ten (68%) South Koreans report having heard or read at least a fair amount about the negotiations with the United States over host-nation support.
- A clear majority (68%) say that South Korea should negotiate a lower cost than the $4.7 billion request made by the United States. One-quarter (26%) say South Korea should refuse to pay. Among those that want to negotiate a lower cost, 60 percent want the cost to remain below 2 trillion won ($1.7 billion), and a further 30 percent say the cost should be between 2 and 3 trillion won ($2.5 billion).
- Three-quarters (74%) say that South Korea should not contribute to the costs of US forces stationed in the Pacific, but outside of South Korea.
- If the two countries fail to reach an agreement on host-nation support, a majority (54%) say that the alliance with the United States should be maintained, but that US forces in South Korea should be reduced. One-third (33%) say the alliance should be maintained and US forces should remain as they are. One in ten (9%) believe the alliance should be maintained, but US forces should be withdrawn. Just 2 percent want to terminate the alliance.
- A majority of the South Korean public (70%) see a failure to reach an agreement as either highly negative (18%) or somewhat negative (52%) for South Korea's national security. Two in ten (22%) said there would be no impact.
The survey was conducted from December 9 to 11, 2019 in South Korea by Hankook Research among a representative national sample of 1,000 adults aged 19 and over. The sample was constructed using RDD for mobile and landline phones and the margin of error is ±3.1% at the 95% confidence interval. This survey was funded by a grant from the Korea Foundation.

Jennifer Garner seems to lead a semi-normal life, when compared with most of her Hollywood peers. In a lot of ways, she's just like most moms: she shops, she has work meetings, she goes to church. She seems to have zero interest in being seen outside of Catch, or getting boozy at The Nice Guy, or even gallivanting around town with one of those giant green juices. Jennifer seems to relish normalcy, and after a career half-spent on tabloid covers, who can blame her? All that rationale even trickles down to her designer handbag picks, which are always imminently reasonable.
Céline Phantom Cabas Bag
$1,169 via Vestiaire Collective
Here's Jennifer, doing a little shopping with pals in LA. She's carrying a bright blue Céline Phantom Cabas Bag. Jennifer tends to prefer totes and top-handles, and Céline specifically.
Céline Ring Bag
$1,635 via Vestiaire Collective
Jennifer carried this dark Céline Ring Bag to church just last week. She occasionally brings her kids along, but she seems to get her praise on solo more often these days, perhaps to shield the kids from the cameras.
Céline Ring Bag
$1,635 via Vestiaire Collective
And here she is carrying the same Céline Ring Bag to a meeting in NYC earlier this year. The Ring is an extremely versatile style, but the brand seems to be intent on phasing it out.
Chloé Faye Bag
$1,940 via Net-a-Porter
Jennifer and Céline aren't exclusive, of course. She's also partial to Chloé's new stable of styles. She carried this black leather and suede Chloé Faye during a recent church outing.
Chloé Faye Bag
$1,390 via Net-a-Porter
Here she is out shopping in NYC with a smaller, grey version of the Faye. If you haven't noticed by now, Jennifer is pretty dedicated to neutral hues.
Dolce & Gabbana Monica Bag
$2,295 via SSENSE
Speaking of, Jennifer carried this neutral leather top-handled D&G Monica Bag for one of her most recent trips to the salon.
Hermès Octagone Bag
Jen incorporated a dash of color into her Sunday style game with this unusual burgundy Hermès Octagone Bag with a striped strap.
Tod's Cape Bag
$1,845 via Saks
And finally, here's Jennifer outside of her church once again with a gorgeous black patent leather Tod's Cape Bag. And in case you missed it, she's actually worn this outfit to church TWICE. Stars. They're just like us!

Rejoice! Alex Garland's Ex Machina follow-up finally has a release date. Paramount has scheduled Annihilation to arrive in theaters on February 23, 2018. Based on the Nebula Award-winning novel by Jeff VanderMeer, the first in his Southern Reach trilogy, the sci-fi thriller by way of eco-horror stars Natalie Portman as a biologist who leads a team of scientists into mysterious terrain known as "Area X" where nature has reclaimed the land. There, they face contamination, disappearances, and deadly creatures. The film takes over the release date after Pacific Rim: Uprising pushed back to a March release date.
For Garland's second feature film after his Academy Award-winning directorial debut, Garland has assembled yet another tremendous cast with Portman starring alongside. Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tessa Thompson, Gina Rodriguez, and Oscar Isaac.
While I'm not familiar with the source material, Ex Machina is one of the best Sci-Fi films of the 21st Century and as the guy who penned the screenplays for 28 Days Later, Sunshine and Never Let Me Go, I'll always be counting down the days until his next project. It's nice to finally know just how many days there are to count, even better that it's only a half-year away.
For his part, VanderMeer has laid out some pretty heavy praise for the film, calling it "mind-blowing, surreal, extremely beautiful, extremely horrific." The author has also shared some praise for the changes Garland has made from the book.
"It's actually more surreal than the novel. There are a couple places where I was like, 'I might need an anchor here.' The ending is so mind-blowing and in some ways different from the book that it seems to be the kind of ending that, like 2001 or something like that, people will be talking about around the watercooler for years… Visually, it's amazing. I must say that and that's all I probably should say."
We'll see for ourselves when Annihilation drops in 2018. For now, keep up with all the horror movies on the horizon with our handy Horror Movie Release Date Calendar.

I have a friend coming to stay with me from tonight until January 4. I might not be able to post much or take pictures of my food but I will try. We are also going to NYC for a few days so I will probably have some good eats/pictures from there. Hope you all had a wonderful holiday!

Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes by Eleanor Coerr
After reflected upon the tragedies of Japan, I remembered a book that I enjoyed during elementary school. Sadako contracted the "atom bomb disease" otherwise known as leukemia. A friend suggested folding 1,000 paper cranes. If 1,000 paper cranes were folded, a wish would be granted. Sadly, Sadako is overcome and could not fold 1,000 cranes. Yet, this sad story brings so much hope to the reader. It's the hope of looking for opportunity, looking at every day as a fresh, new start. Although, Eleanor Coerr wrote this fictional tale, Sadako was a real little girl. She did fold 1,000 cranes, but still passed away from the "atom bomb disease." She is remembered by people all over the globe. For information about Sadako, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadako_Sasaki
Narrator Christina Moore shares a beautiful story. She is straight forward with difficult topics of sickness and death.

In Britain, Steel Framing Systems (SFS) make up a substantial part of the offsite solutions portfolio – from structural panels to complete frames, plus a variety of roofing, volumetric modular options and infill walling applications. Steve Thompson, Managing Director of EOS Facades, shares his perspective how the industry can meet the specified target of 300,000 homes per year by 2025 – and cold-formed steel framing is at the forefront of the solution.
Thompson notes that advancements in CAD/CAM systems (that control manufacturing machinery to produce the light gauge steel sections) are required to optimize the frame or cassette design. By manufacturing offsite for onsite installation – contractors are able to create much of the finished product in the factory – ultimately minimizing onsite labor.
Thompson concludes that there has never been a better time to capitalize on the raft of benefits that factory-based steel solutions deliver. As an advanced high performance offsite solution, SFS (using cold-formed steel) are perfectly positioned to meet housing industry demands – they are future proof and future ready.

AI War:Gifting Ships
What Are The Rules For Gifting Ships Between Players?
Q: I'm playing a game, in which I apparently can't give units. My partner tried to gift me some as well, and that failed too. Is this a bug?
A: The main rule is that you can only give units both of you have access to and which don't go over your unit limits.
Q: So would it work in this situation? I have parasites, and they took over a tier 3 Tank. I try to give it to my ally, who started with tanks. Should that work?
A: That will work if your buddy has tier 3 tanks unlocked. He has to have tier 3 tanks specifically, not just tanks in general. This prevents people from cheating the pop caps and avoiding knowledge expenditures -- for example, if you and I are playing, and you unlock Anti-Armor Mark II and I unlock Raid Starships II, then I could just give you Raid Starships and you could give me Anti-Armors, and we'd be cheating the knowledge unlocks and making everything a lot easier.
Parasites let you capture ships that you otherwise could never have, but that ability doesn't transfer to giving captured ships to allies. A ship captured by parasites is no different than a ship built from a dock, and as such as the same gifting restrictions.

Waiver of the 5% Goods and Services Tax (GST) on handloom was the prime and uniform demand of weavers from Dindigul, Theni, Ramanathapuram, Tirunelveli, Kanyakumari, Virudhunagar and Madurai who participated in the consultative meeting that was organised by the ministry of textiles and handlooms for weavers of the nine southern districts here.
Weaver K N Mothilal who was the first to raise the issue said that GST has badly affected sale. In his reply, textile and handloom minister O S Manian said that they have already made a representation in this connection to the Union Government and that necessary effort would be taken to bring it to down to zero.
The minister said that industries with a cap of Rs 20 lakh annual production are able to enjoy zero GST. have told the minister that the production in Tamil Nadu easily crosses the mark and even crossed Rs Rs 40 crore some societies where weavers work as a society," and expressed hope for a favourable solution.
A weaver from Tirunelveli alleged that banks are hesitant to provide loans under Mudra Scheme. Responding to it, the minister and handloom director termed it a rare incident and said that stringent action would be take taken against such banks.
Weavers from Dindigul sought reintroduction of the insurance scheme that has been stopped now. "The Centre would soon soon finalise an even better insurance cover," the minister responded.

Visual marketing is a major trend online that's only growing more and more popular. Take a look at some of the most popular social media platforms over the last few years: Instagram, Snapchat, Pinterest, Vine — all visual media. Marketers who leverage a variety of visual content will get more views, and that can lead to more customer engagement, more leads, and more followers. All that, in turn, can mean more sales.
When you think of visual content for your digital marketing efforts, you probably imagine images. While images are important, visual content includes many other formats such as:
- Videos
- Infographics (a visual representation of data or information that presents complex ideas in a simple way)
- Memes (a usually humorous image accompanied by text that conveys an idea or message and spreads throughout the Internet virally)
- Word art
- Cartoons
- Quotes accompanied by images
- Charts and graphs
- Brand logos
- Design elements
4 Reasons Why Images Are Essential
1. Images Convey Meaning Quickly
Sure, a picture says a thousand words, but did you know it also says it in just 13 milliseconds? According to a study out of MIT, researchers found that it takes only 13 milliseconds for your brain to process an image. Once the image hits your retina, your brain begins processing information — shape, orientation, color.
Visual information is much faster at conveying concepts — words take more time to be read and processed than images. A strong image or video can help grab attention more immediately than straight text blog posts and text-only social media updates.[Tweet "MIT researchers found that it takes only 13 milliseconds for your brain to process an image."]
2. Visuals Help Tell Stories More Vividly
Images are especially effective in marketing because they can help effectively tell a story. Not only are images and videos powerful in storytelling, the colors in the images themselves can evoke strong emotions to enhance your storytelling. While psychologists do approach color theory with some skepticism, there is some evidence to support the idea that color does affect people's moods and emotions. It is important to note, however, that colors can have different meanings based on culture, so approach color use with care if you are catering to a global audience. About.com references these examples of how color can affect mood, emotions, and behavior:
- Warm-colored placebo pills were reported as more effective than cool-colored placebos
- Installation of blue-colored streetlights can lead to a reduction of crime in the area
- The color red causes people to react with greater speed and force
- Sports teams in black uniforms tend to receive more penalties
3. Visuals Are Essential in Branding
Images are absolutely essential for branding. You want your company icon or brand logo to be instantly recognizable to your audience. Think about the Apple logo, McDonald's Golden Arches — they can be immediately spotted by most consumers. It helps them quickly find their brand of choice. When you scan the shelves on a grocery aisle, you are probably looking for your favorite brand based on the logo — bright, red French's pennant logo; the bright, red Kellogg's signature or Tony the Tiger character. Color and symbols help people identify their favorites quickly. Make sure your brand stands out instead of blending in with the crowd.
4. Visuals Improve Your Social Media Engagement
Finally, visual content is great for social media. In my post on "Take a Picture, Why Don't Ya," I covered a few of the stats on the power of images in social media. Here are a few of those statistics to underscore the importance of images and video in social media marketing:
- Nearly half of all Internet users have reposted a photo or video they have found online. (Source: Buffer)
- Content with relevant images gets 94 percent more views than content without. (Source: Buffer)
- Half of buyers say they are more likely to seek out more information about a product and more confident in making an online purchase after viewing related video. (Source: Business2Community)
- Instagram has a 58x higher engagement rate compared to Facebook for top brands. It's 120x higher than on Twitter. (Source: Hootsuite)
- According to Search Engine Land, YouTube is the second largest search engine and is the third most visited site on the web.
Visual Content Ideas
Sometimes marketers — especially ones without access to an on-staff designer — feel stymied when it comes to visual content marketing. The question becomes what to create and how to do it? The answer to "what to create" is anything relevant that engages, entertains, or informs your audience is a good candidate for visual content. It's just a matter of finding the right way to represent the concept visually.
A popular option in B2B is to take information you may normally present in a text-based article and turn it into an infographic, video, or slide deck. This can be a terrific option for taking something complex and turning it into an easy-to-understand visual representation.
Your visuals don't have to be stand alones, of course. Add images and video to your blog content, articles, and press releases, too. Videos or memes in your blog posts and social media channels give your readers another way to consume and quickly understand the concepts you're trying to convey.
Having a Designer is Great — But Don't Let it Stop You if You Don't
Maybe you think your design skills aren't really up to par. Maybe you don't have a full-time designer on staff. Don't let that stop you from at least experimenting with visual content marketing. There are many great visual content creation tools and resources to make it a little easier to create images, presentations, videos, and more.
How do you think you will incorporate more visuals into your 2016 content marketing?[banner id="6628″]

Fresh Brussels sprouts are faintly nutty and crunchy, sturdy enough for bold vinaigrettes yet mild enough to pair with delicate mixed greens. Trim the ends and outer leaves, and then use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice.
How to Make It
Combine oil, vinegar, mustard, pepper, and salt in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add greens, Brussels sprouts, and tomatoes; toss.

Just got in from seeing a staged reading that Bill directed at the Theater for the New City. It went well. It was a good play, could definitely use some work, some things should be cut or shortened, other things need to be developed further.
It was a musical oddly enough, about a black woman adopted by a white couple and raised as white. They remove all mirrors in their home and go so far as to hire a white woman to be her doppelganger in real life.
Yes it can be filed under hare brained but it was performed in earnest. Bill did well and should be satisfied with the result. The audience loved it as well.
Bill's friend Kirk played flute and another friend of Bill's, Tom played drums. Bill was worried about Tom being up for the task since his background is more in rock and roll and not musical theater but I think he did a decent job though he said after the show he would never do it again.
Too much restraint, not much room for improvisation for Tom.
Bill wasn't around last night to watch the season finale of True Blood. It was OK, left me whelmed, neither over nor under but merely. Of course I can't give anything away. That would be heartless.
Today I went in and did some work for Greg Stevens. It was supposed to be for tomorrow as well but there's really no need for me to come in. The office is now a shambles, things aren't ordered anymore, it really is a mess.
I had to type up an itinerary for Greg and his head honcho. Basically got paid for typing one and a quarter pages of meetings and lunches and dinners. I'm not complaining, every little bit helps.
Over the weekend I got phone calls from people I hadn't heard from in a while. On Saturday I heard from one particular person. We were really close back in the day but time moves on and people move away.
I was glad that they called but couldn't stay on the phone too long as I was getting ready to head out. I told them I would call them tomorrow.
So thinking that they were next to their phone all day waiting for me to call and not wanting to ruin their day, I called. I got voice mail and decided not to leave a message. They noticed I called and called me back to see what was up.
I replied that nothing was going on, just calling back like I had said I was going to do. It was awkward as they were in the middle of something and I was just sitting there feeling rather stupid with nothing to really say.
I still have to call some other people but I think it would be best to call when I have something to say.
Now Bill is at McSorley's with the cast. He asked if I wanted to go but this was his night, let him bask in the glow of his successful directing. He should be home soon since he does have to work tomorrow.
I'm proud of him.
RIP Jim Carroll.
