Hey everyone, I have been working on a new Twine story. It is a non-linear hypertext storytelling platform that has been allowing me to explore a work in a way I never thought would be possible. Click here to take a look as I build the story. Keep in mind that this is a work in progress, so things may change if you visit the story more than once over the next few days.
88 Constellations by David Clark
I want to say that this work, though cinematic, does not have that feel to me. I do not want to call it a novel either. It feels like avant-garde creative non-fiction, if there is even such a thing (also, I know that this classification may represent an overly academic need to categorize accurately the things that I read or consume). What is literary about this to me is the linking of words, or symbols, to broader expositions, showing that a symbol encapsulates a great deal, meaning that no one word is really just one word but is really a connection of a great number of ideas symbolized together in the image of the word on the page. I think that mixing of mediums in this work did a fantastic job of trying to point a person toward the idea that a word is not just a word and as you explore the ideas inside one word, you are lead to explore more and more words and thus to keep exploring an infinite number of ideas. Though the words, symbols, and ideas in this work are not technically infinite, they give the sense that they may be. Because this work explores ideas like this, I feel that it is literary, at least within the confines of what I have grown to think of the idea of literature.
OK. Now I need to go let me head cool down, and marvel at the fact that I just witnessed a work that links Carmen Miranda and Hitler with only a couple clicks of the mouse between them.
Hello Twine!
I am EXTREMELY (yes, I just used caps, bold, italic, underline, comic sans, and purple on an adverb to express my excitement…English majors and designers, please avert your eyes) excited about giving Twine a try. First off, Anna Anthropy should write all how-to's ever. I loved her introduction to Twine and I felt like it opened my eyes to some potential features and ideas to experiment with using this great tool, and also let me feel like I could hit the ground running without worrying about the technical stuff too much.
Last week I mentioned writing choose your own adventure stories in QBASIC when I was a teenager. This program essentially gives you the same ability and does so in a far more user friendly way. The ability to create the story and then manipulate the markup, css, and javascript makes Twine a very robust platform and I fear that there is not going to be enough time in this class for me to really get as much out of it as I hope to.
I have had time to read a couple examples that Anna Anthropy points us toward at the end of her article. I adore You Will Select a Decision, published by Brendan Patrick Hennessy. I only had time to play with №1 – Small Child In Woods, and I managed to kill the poor child within 4 steps of the story, but the narrative is fantastic, and the history of it being banned by the CIA due to fears involving a communist plot to control the minds of American children is great as well.
I can not stress how excited I am to use this software for this class, and I will try and post a quick test before our Google Hangout tomorrow evening. Do any of you have ideas that you want to try in the Twine format yet?
Reactions to "And the Robot Horse You Rode In On" & "Party At Woodside"
Oh! I love A Party in Woodside by Judy Malloy. A friend of mine and myself spent some time trying to create "choose your own adventure" stories in QBASIC when I was in junior high and as underclassmen in high school. My friends and I all spent a great deal of time online playing text based adventure games, which share some similarities to these stories as well. I really enjoy what Judy Malloy has done here. I love the parallel narratives that are taking place. I followed Jenny and Uncle Roger through the story. It was interesting how clicking on one and then back to the other would result in you either making leaps forward or back in time in relation to the other. The whole experience really gave a temporal and connected feel to the experience and I am afraid I am hooked. I am also planning on going to my father's house this week to see if I can find any of the old 5.25" discs that we saved our adventure books to. If I can, I will try and compile them and share them here on the blog.
I also enjoyed And the Robot Horse You Rode In On by Anna Anthropy as well. I think that this is a great example of an evolution beyond the concept of Malloy's work, though I feel as though there is a strength in the search terms listed at the bottom of the work in Malloy's piece. I like that I can double back and see the event from the perspective of another character and then, using the back navigation button on my browser, go back to the original character's point of view in a more understandable fashion. That said, the "new Wild West" environment and characters in Anthropy's story are fascinating and I will be revisiting this piece in the future.
Concrete Poems
I have to say that reading and seeing different concrete poems was very eye opening for me this week. Without a doubt, I feel as though I learned the most from Dan Waber's Strings. I really liked Letter Man by Adam Lisckiewicz, but I could not stop watching the strings. The final flash element, poidog, was fantastic. I feel as though the earlier segments of the work did a good job of preparing me to really watch and understand when Adam showed us that words are strings that he pulls from his mouth. After watching this, and getting to watch the shape of the words as well as the words themselves, I feel like I have been introduced to a great new tool for writing/creating. Moving, animated words, and the meaning making that can happen in this space feels so very freeing. I decided that I would attempt to make a concrete poem of my own. Below, I am including a conversion of an older piece I wrote for one of Jay's classes. I realized that allowing the words to take on the shape of the poem could lend a different sort of imagery and path for meaning making for the reader. While this is not as dynamic as the works that we saw this week, I feel like the reshaping of the piece has made quite a bit of a difference. I hope you enjoy it.

DIY Bookcase
Instead of trashing your old dresser, turn it into a colorful shelf worthy of displaying your favorite books and collectibles. Then take a look at our other furniture makeovers for more great ways to repurpose other outdated pieces.
By Ryan McPhail
Colorful Storage
Don't haul your outmoded dresser to the curb. Instead, consider using its drawers to build an adaptable modular storage system — a trick we learned from Monica Ewing of craftynest.com. Start by removing the hardware from each drawer before playing around with the arrangement of the components. Once you're satisfied, sand all the surfaces and follow these easy steps.
Amber Clark
Drab Dresser
Believe it: This drab dresser became a snappy bookcase. The secret? Liberating the drawers and prettifying them with paint and paper.
Amber Clark
Prime and Paint
Brighten up each drawer with primer and a fresh coat of eggshell-finish latex paint. Let dry and position everything where you'd like it to go.
Amber Clark
Mark each drawer as horizontal or vertical before cutting a piece of wallpaper to fit. (Wallpaper, $108 per roll; anthropologie.com)
Amber Clark
Coat the bottom of each drawer with a spray adhesive like Elmer's Craft Bond and affix wallpaper. Stack in your predetermined configuration.

Arrhythmia Recognition:
Rate: Less than 100 BPM
Regularity: Irregularly Irregular
P wave: Present
Morphology: Variable
Upright in II, III, aVF: Sometimes
P:QRS Ratio: 1:1
PR Interval: Variable
QRS Width: Normal or wide
Grouping: None
Dropped Beats: Sometimes
Note: A wandering atrial pacemaker is an irregularly irregular rhythm with a ventricular rate less than 100 BPM, characterized by at least three different P-wave morphologies on the same strip, each associated with their own PR interval. Contrary to a tracing with frequent PACs, there's no underlying regular rhythm associated with it.
Strip: This ECG strip shows the classic changes of a wandering atrial pacemaker. Notice the slow, gradual transition of the P waves from upright to inverted. Longer strips show the transition occurring back and forth between the pacemakers. Notice that the QRS complexes and T waves are identical in this strip. There is no evidence of any aberrant conduction, as can sometimes occur with faster rates.
Differential Diagnosis:
2. Respiratory Failure
3. Atrial Enlargement
4. Electrolyte abnormalities
5. Drugs: nicotine, alcohol, caffeine, etc.

If you're looking for a new person to worship this week, let me point you in the direction of the 16-year-old Lorde. The up-and-coming singer just threw some major shade in Taylor Swift's direction and we can't help but cheer her on. Partially because we have what one commenter deemed "a pathological hatred of the singer," and partially because Lorde points out one of the biggest problems with Taylor Swift's public persona — it's bad for girls.

Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the BMW 740 than the Lexus LS 600h, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Lexus LS 600h and the BMW 740 in the front seats.
The BMW 740 requires fewer visits to the gas station than the Lexus LS 600h, making it more convenient to drive.
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Lexus LS 600h will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the BMW 740, which has a much lower MSRP. Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. In this case, the Lexus LS 600h will cost less to deliver to the dealership than the BMW 740.
The Lexus LS 600h is a little narrower than the BMW 740, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. When looking at overall length, the Lexus LS 600h takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the BMW 740.
With somewhat higher torque, the engine of the Lexus LS 600h transmits a bit more power to the wheels than the BMW 740.
The Lexus LS 600h has a smaller turning radius than the BMW 740, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.
When it comes to horsepower, the Lexus LS 600h is somewhat more powerful than the BMW 740.
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Lexus LS 600h and the BMW 740. The Lexus LS 600h has significantly less cargo room than the BMW 740, which may be a concern if you do a lot of warehouse shopping.
The Lexus LS 600h comes with essentially the same basic warranty as the BMW 740.
Compare the 2013 Lexus LS 600h and the 2015 BMW 740.

Road map
A road map or route map is a map that primarily displays roads and transport links rather than natural geographical information. It is a type of navigational map that commonly includes political boundaries and labels, making it also a type of political map. In addition to roads and boundaries, road maps often include points of interest, such as prominent businesses or buildings, tourism sites, parks and recreational facilities, hotels and restaurants, as well as airports and train stations. A road map may also document non-automotive transit routes, although often these are found only on transit maps.

The Ducks managed four shots in the first period Wednesday and came out of the first period tied 0-0 with Minnesota.
Curtis McIlhenny was in goal and had to make a nice save on Marek Zidlicky early, Cal Clutterbuck's bid hit a post.
The Ducks had no serious chances against Niklas Backstrom.
Andreas Lilja was a healthy scratch on defense and was replaced by Sheldon Brookbank, who is coming off a hamstring problem and had missed the Ducks' past four games.

Urgent request for assistance in rescuing about 100 plus cats and kittens
Animalkind, Inc
URGENT! MASSIVE EFFORT NEEDED TO RESCUE 100 PLUS CATS & KITTENS FROM TRAILER PARK (Colonie NY area)
Please forward and cross post to others who care about animals. Thank you very much!
Urgent request for assistance in rescuing about 100 plus cats and kittens from Mohawk River Estates Trailer Park 1360 Loudon Rd. Colonie NY off Exit 8 of the Northway.
The trailer park's owner Pat Cavanaugh will be bringing in demolition crews in order to build a "high end" condo and retail complex (Mohawk Riverfront Estates)
While this project may appear to be economically appealing to some parties, the impact on these cats will be devastating.
When the heavy equipment arrives, these cats and the river-based wildlife will be forced to flee the park.
Most likely, they will end up on Rt. 9 or in the yards of local home owners as they search for food and struggle to survive.
While there are some feral cats, many of these cats are friendly, adoptable, beautiful animals who have been either abandoned by the park's tenants or have been dropped off by irresponsible and uncaring "owners" who saw the park as a way to avoid paying a surrender fee to their local animal shelter.
Here is what is needed and how you can help.
1) Media coverage to spread the word regarding the need for a massive effort to address this situation in a humane and responsible manner.
2) Caring, responsible, individuals and or rescue groups who have "hands on" experience in rescuing cats. Please note that currently, there are two local rescuers and (one park tenant who is moving on Tuesday June 1,) working to rescue some of these cats.
3) Carriers, crates, "Have A Heart Traps" and gloves for safe handling of frightened cats.
4) Foster homes, or safe, caring temporary shelter (boarding or veterinary kennels etc.) where these cats can be evaluated and screened for potential adoption.
5) Monetary donations for supplies to be used towards the cost involved in rescuing, feeding, boarding and providing basic veterinary related pre-adopting services.
6) Transportation related assistance to transport these cats from the trailer park to foster homes or other responsible, caring, safe environments.
For more information, please contact Sce (Shay) (518) 373-8164 Before 12 P.M or leave message from 12 P.M. to 6:30 P.M. (518) 334-6415 or call (518) 458-1326 after 6:30 P.M. or email email@example.com or call Debra at (518) 861-8184 or (518) 698-9950 or email firstname.lastname@example.com or call Linda (518) 869-7691, or (518) 445-5902 or email firstname.lastname@example.com .

Blood Sport: Rock, paper, scissors? {WoW}
Oct 28th 2007 9:04PM You are a brave soul for attempting this column! I hope you have some thick skin or a flame retardant suit!
Hopefully people will become a bit more reasonable with their responses from now on. I don't think ANY author could possibly write a PvP column that everyone would be happy with. If you disagree with something that is said make a well thought out post and tell everyone why. None of this "stopped reading at x" or "lol nub" bullshit.
Anyways, I play both Mage and Warrior and I think you did pretty well with the chart overall. I'd just like to echo what some others have said about dropping Warrior vs Warlock to an E maybe. SL/SL tends to destroy me.
I agree that 1v1 strength/experience will always contribute to success/failure in group PvP. The Warlock and Rogue's strength in 1v1 carried over directly to 2v2 and 3v3 where as in 5v5 they are not highly valued.
Do you have roots in World of WarCraft? {WoW}
Oct 22nd 2007 12:26AM I'll have to agree and disagree.
I played EQ for a maybe a year or so. It definitely is a lot more hardcore as far as the amount of time and patience required to do anything. Skill wise it's a little hard to compare (most say WoW requires more "twitch" skill to play well where as EQ is slower but strategic).
My point is, due to the effort and time investment required to reach the level cap in EQ most of the players that make it that far are probably planning to stick around for quite a bit. It's hard to play Everquest casually and succeed. WoW players on the other hand tend to come and go. Casual players can do pretty well. In this way the AVERAGE WoW player is not as attached to his fellow players as an EQ player might be.
I happened to get lucky I suppose because I landed myself in an awesome guild nearly from the get-go in WoW. For nearly 2 years I was a member and webmaster for the most dominant guild on my server. We kept the same core group of 25 or so members for nearly the whole time pre-TBC.
I made many very good friends during my time there. Although I lived across the country from most of them I now keep in touch with many of them regularly outside of game. Hell I even have a place to stay should I ever decide to visit Australia. Although the guild collapsed shortly before TBC we remained pretty closely knit.
You can have the same sort of lasting friendships in WoW as you can in EQ, it's just a bit less common due to the casual nature of the game.

For those interested, I'll likely be releasing a new version of the UI sometime this week. The last round of patches broke a few of the mods I use. I've also replaced several of the mods I used with better alternatives such as AGUF -> Pitbull.
I'll comment here when it is complete.

Breakfast Topic: What's your favorite aspect of WoW? {WoW}
Sep 4th 2007 11:35AM I could never pick just one thing that keeps me coming back. It always changes!
For my nearly my entire pre BC career it was hardcore raiding that kept me going. I enjoyed the competition of going for the first kills and showing off the gear.
Whenever I needed a break from the raiding schedule I developed a temporary case of altitis. Seeing the game from a different angle isn't only fun but it makes you a better player as well.
Nowadays it's arena. Nothing beats the satisfaction of tearing up the ladder with good friends. I arena regularly with 2 characters (Warrior and Mage) and several teams each. I shall have you one day armored netherdrake!!!
It's nice to see how many different perspectives there are on the game.

I meant the art is not original. It's not the same exact graphic but it might as well be.
DiscordMods members would recognize it immediatly. Flat, grass and flower print brushes with a gradient placed in the corners - it's been done dozens of times.
Again, like I said I apologize for sounding negative. I would easily say this is one of the best implementations of the style I have ever seen.

Since the advent of refrigeration, cow's milk has been a staple in the American home. We've all heard the old adage, "Drink your milk for healthy bones." And let's not forget about the Dairy council and their famous "Got Milk?" ads full of our favorite stars sporting milk moustaches. And yet, a large percentage of the world's population can't even digest the stuff–and the concern over the use of hormones and antibiotics in cow's milk seems to drown out its so called 'benefits' these days. What should we believe? After a bit of research, my unbiased (but informed) opinion is below. I encourage you to read on and then embark on your own journey to determine whether milk still deserves a place in your fridge.
We all know that cow's milk contains ample calcium (about 300 mg per cup) and since our bones need calcium for optimal function, it makes sense to assume that consuming milk would give us rockstar bones. Unfortunately, science just doesn't support this widely-believed myth. In fact, the countries with the lowest amount of dairy consumption have the lowest incidence of bone fracture and osteoporosis. How can this be? And how come no one is telling us this? Well first off, cow's milk (like all animal protein) is acidic. Your body's M.O. is to keep you neutral and it just so happens that calcium is awesome at alkalizing acid. Therefore, when you drink milk, calcium stores in your bones are actually leached out to neutralize the acidic nature of the drink. Unfortunately, much of the medical community is still living in the dark ages and recommending serious milk consumption despite this irrefutable evidence and science.
It only gets worse from there. Gone are the days of the humble dairy farmer, milking his small flock of cows and in his place are large factory dairies with thousands of animals and machines doing the milking. This new way of producing milk is cost effective, but often results in sick cows and the spread of disease. To combat these illnesses, farmers load up their cows with antibiotics along with a hefty dose of hormones to increase their output. All of this ends up in the milk you drink. Studies have even shown that these hormones can induce premature puberty in little girls. Thankfully, there are responsible milk manufacturers who are now dedicated to producing milk without these insidious add-ins. If you're still serving cow's milk to your family, please make sure to seek out these organic brands.
For my money, I say that organic almond milk is the safest way to go. But like anything, it's all about choice and personal preference. Try starting a milk debate amongst your friends or family and see where they weigh in. You'd be surprised by the lack of knowledge and the way some feel so fiercely protective over their right to drink the stuff.

New York and New England fans may have watched Super Bowl XLVI for the football, but many partygoers tuned in for the famously high-profile commercials. This year's slate of million-dollar ad spots offered the usual mix of adorable animals, celebrity appearances and talking babies -- but there were a few entertaining standouts.
Check out some of 2012's most memorable Super Bowl ads below!
Honda's Matthew Broderick's Day Off: Even though he's nearly 50, Broderick is still best known for his iconic Ferris Bueller's Day Off character. In Honda's ad for the 2012 CR-V, Broderick pretends to be himself calling in sick to get out of an acting gig -- just like his '80s alter ego got out of school. Watch as Broderick spends his day playing hooky.
Acura's Transactions: Jerry Seinfeld wants to be the first owner of the new Acura NSX, but when he finds out someone else has already bought it, he'll stop at nothing (from offering up his observational humor at a breakfast buffet to throwing in the Soup Nazi) to convince the guy to turn over the keys to the sports car. But at the last minute, Jay Leno swoops in and makes the guy an even more impressive offer.
Volkswagen's The Dog Strikes Back: What's a chubby canine to do when he's not fit enough to chase Volkwagen's all-new Beetle? In this clever spot, Fido commits to a routine of diet and exercise in order to run after his vehicle of choice. The funniest part is at the end, when the commercial turns into a send-up of the Star Wars cantina scene with a cameo by Lord Vader himself.
Audi's Vampire Party: One of the standout commercials from the Super Bowl's first quarter is this Twilight-fan friendly take on what happens when a handsome vampire arrives to his vampire party with his deadly new Audi. Bonus points if you recognize the commercial's appropriately titled song as Echo and the Bunnymen's "The Killing Moon."
Doritos' Man Best Friend: Doritos had two laugh-aloud commercials during the Super Bowl: one featuirng a baby and one starring a dog. Cat lovers beware; this one follows a man who's easily bribed by his dog (with Doritos, of course) into keeping quiet about the whereabouts of a missing cat.
Watch and vote for your favorite Superbowl commercials of 2012 at Hulu.

Oceana's Evening at the Cinema
On December 14, over 250 Oceana supporters gathered for an exclusive preview of Newport Beach's new state of the art Island Cinemas, located within the Fashion Island shopping center. During the preview guests enjoyed a special advanced screening of Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows and pre-movie snacks and beverages provided by the Island Hotel Restaurant, Roy's Restaurant, Café Beau Soleil, The Cheesecake Factory, California Pizza Kitchen and the Daily Grill. All of the proceeds from the evening were donated to Oceana.
An Evening with Oceana's Board of Directors
Oceana's staff, funders, board members and supporters gathered in Washington, DC for Oceana's winter board meeting. During the meeting, Ocean Council member Susie Trees hosted a reception in her home in celebration of Oceana's 2011 victories for the oceans. The reception was hosted by Oceana's board chair Dr. Kristian Parker and board secretary Simon Sidamon-Eristoff and attended by several notable guests, including Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D- RI), Joshua Reichert, Tom Wathen and Lois Schiffer.
A Luncheon in Honor of Sir Thomas R. Moore
On December 5, Oceana board member and Ocean Council chair Susan Rockefeller hosted a distinguished group of guests at the Rockefeller Family Foundation for a luncheon in honor of longtime Oceana supporter Sir Thomas R. Moore. The group was given an exclusive preview of the Elizabeth Taylor auction at Christie's. Earlier in the year, Sir Thomas had generously pledged $100,000 to match funds generated via Oceana's paddle raise to end trawling in Belizean waters at the Christie's Green Auction: A Bid to Save the Earth.
Vanessa Noel Winter Cocktail
Over 90 guests gathered on December 1 at Ocean Council member Vanessa Noel's Manhattan boutique and residence for a cocktail party and art exhibition. The photographs on display during the evening were taken by Nantucket artist Michael Gaillard. In addition to the beautiful coastal images, guests also enjoyed cocktails featuring Elit by Stolichnaya, an Oceana supporter.

Ombre Obsession: A Multi-Hued Party Trend
Fashion, design and party planners are all deep into the ombre trend. Ombre's flexibility and the sense of airiness it brings to a design understandably make it a favorite! So how and where do you make it work in your own party designs?
Ombre Cake Pops by Candybar Couture
Choose your base color carefully. Colors that are on the less intense side will give a more pleasing effect in the end. Think aqua, lavender, pink, sea foam green. There is no reason other colors can't be used, but some definitely work better than others in an ombre scheme. After you choose your base color (the darkest color), pick colors in a gradation of increasingly lighter tones to complete your palette.
Pink Ombre Swirl Cake by Glorious Treats
Use ombre as a backdrop for a focal point. At a party, create a wall of ombre. Crepe paper, garlands, feathers, papers and cloth are all available in enough colors and hues to make this easy. Creating a backdrop in this case is all about layers.
Ombre Decorated Votives at Martha Stewart
Use ombre accessories against a solid background. Flowers, candlesticks, balloons and other decorations can all be painted or picked in any tonal range to create an attractive display. Just plan on creating a big enough collection of whatever items you plan to use. Give your ombre decor something to stand out against—a solid color will be easiest.
Ombre Macaroons by Sweet Style
Decorate your desserts. An ombre effect can make any dessert look totally designer. Cakes are a popular way to use ombre whether it's on the inside of the cake as a surprise when you cut it or on the outside in layers of frosting or fondant. Cookies, cake pops and artfully arranged candy are also a fantastic way to use ombre as a design element as shown in the pictures above.
Want to see more ombre inspiration? See my Pinterest board.
Thank you for the great ombre party ideas and for the lovely pictures!
http://www.ablissfulnest.com Rebekah
those macaroons are just lovely!
Paula, I agree with you that you should choose muted base colors. Or else you would have a definite eyesore in your hands when the party comes.
http://www.eastwitching.etsy.com Alison Fennell
OMG – is there anything more glorious than this! What pure eye candy – so pretty!!!
http://www.petitepommedesign.com Petite Pomme Design
Paula, thanks for sharing the inspirational ombre pictures and how to choose colors for the effect. We recently had a Sunshine and Blue Skies party using yellow and orange shades for the ombre backdrop. It came out great and I still have the itch to do more ombre creations!
I just adore the colors here. I think I'd do a multi-hued party using blue.
Florence Amber
Will this kind of color scheme work for boys?
Frauline Melfi
Florence: I think that if you choose boyish colors it will. Ombre is more of an accent, so it would all depend on the main materials that you use for your party or centerpiece.
Tasha Cune
Oooh! I can't wait to try this out. Great thing my youngest has her birthday coming up soon!

This is my antidote to the world obsessed with selfies! Christine took up riding again, a year ago, after 25 years and has been doing brilliantly. So well in fact that she's now jumping.
Mostly I write books and other things that people pay me for. What I'd like to do is to take more photographs. Ideally I'd like to try combining the two at some point in the future. . .

FLORENCE – Following up on General Electric CEO's optimistic view of the global economy and the growing role of the oil and gas industry, GE Oil & Gas President & CEO Dan Heintzelman said the company is investing in both organic and inorganic growth and expects to double its technology spend in the oil and gas segment over the next two to three years.
Heintzelman made his announcement at a press conference held at the company's annual meeting here in Florence. Joining Heintzelman at the media event were Eric Gebhart, VP Engineering, and Frederic Riberas, VP and CFO.
GE entered the oil and gas business segment in 1994 through its acquisition of Nuovo Pignone, a turbomachinery manufacturer. Over the next 20 years, GE has acquired other oilfield giants such as Hydril, Vetco Gray and Wellstream to develop a strong position in equipment manufacturing and drilling and production segments. GE Oil & Gas revenue in 2012 was $15.2 billion with 30,000 employees working in 100 countries around the world.
Asked if GE intends to enter the exploration sector of the oil and gas industry, Heintzleman said "We're a technology development with strength in equipment manufacturing. But Jeffrey Immelt is supportive of our growth strategy. We intend to grow by leveraging our technology innovations in aviation and healthcare to the oil and gas industry."
GE is planning to announce plans to establish an R&D center specifically for the oil and gas industry during the first quarter of 2013. The company currently operates R&D centers in Niskayuna, U.S.; Munich, Germany; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Shanghai, China; and Bangalore, India.
As an example of GE's technology innovation, Gebhart explained how the company reduced the footprint and weight by 20% of its high-speed compressor for offshore installations by eliminating both the lube box and the gear box.
GE's annual meeting in Florence continues until Tuesday, January 29.

In the continuing series reflecting on hospitality Mario Conti, Kevin O'Gorman and David McAlpine explore an aspect of hospitality often overlooked - the constantly evolving religious practice of providing hospitality to those in most need. They present an overview of the evolution of hospitality for the needy and consider how throughout history, even when religion is under attack, there has always been recognition of the importance of charitable hospitality: hospitality in necessitudine.

Open Road Films to Distribute Jon Stewart's Directorial Debut ROSEWATER; Set to Be Released This Fall
by Matt Goldberg Posted 224 days ago
I'm incredibly excited to see Jon Stewart's Rosewater. Although Stewart is known for political satire, he took a hiatus from The Daily Show to make his directorial debut on Rosewater. The film is an adaptation of BBC journalist Maziar Bahari's memoir, Then They Came for Me: A Family's Story of Love, Captivity and Survival. Bahari, who was born in Tehran, went to Iran in 2009 to interview Mir-Hossein Moussavi, but was arrested by the Revolutionary Guard, and then interrogated and beaten for 118 days by a man known only as "Rosewater". Stewart had a personal connection to the story as The Daily Show continually covered Bahari's ordeal and then had him on the show after he was released.
Open Road Films has announced that they will distribute the movie in the U.S. and release it this fall. Presumably, they plan to put it on the fall festival awards circuit, and I hope they do because I want to see it as soon as possible. Hit the jump for the Stewart's interview with Bahari and the press release.

WAKEFIELD–Only 30 games into the franchise's first season the Ocean State Waves have fired manager Phil Davidson.
"The Ocean State Waves (OSW) announced today that on July 13, 2013, Jeff Sweenor, owner of OSW, terminated the employment of Phil Davidson as OSW's head coach and manager," the team said in a press release Tuesday. "Mr. Davidson's duties are now being handled by OSW's assistant coach, Rian McCarthy."
The release did not give any specific reasons as to why Davidson was let go but went on to say, "as a community based organization, OSW took swift action to preserve the integrity of OSW and the interests of, the NCAA, the NECBL and the community of South County, Rhode Island."
"OSW will continue to provide quality affordable family entertainment and baseball. OSW's actions demonstrate its commitment to preserving its role as a leader in the community and promise to do so for years to come."
Speculation on Davidson's status with the team emerged over the past week as sources from the Newport Gulls, Mystic Schooners and Holyoke Blue Sox confirmed that Davidson has not been in the opposing dugout in each of the Waves' last three games.
Narragansett Times reporter Matthew Preston confirmed Davidson coached in last Wednesday's 4-3 win over Laconia, while a representative from the Plymouth Pilgrims also stated that Davidson coached in Thursday's 6-3 Plymouth win – what proved to be Davidson's last game with the Waves.
Prior to Tuesday afternoon's release, New England College Baseball League (NECBL) Director of Media Relations Donald Leypoldt told The Times that no suspension had been filed with the league.
"Nothing formal has been filed with the league," Leypoldt said by phone Tuesday morning. "If there was an ejection report one would have come out."
The now former manager also works at Bombsquad Baseball Company – which is owned by Sweenor – as an instructor.
According to his Bombsquad staff biography, Davidson was a standout player at Toll Gate, winning the 2001 Rhode Island High School Gatorade Player of the Year award.
He went on to become a four-year starter at North Carolina State University and had a short career playing minor league baseball.
After his playing career he spent some time on Jim Foster's coaching staff at the University of Rhode Island and this past spring was an assistant coach on Jim Sauro's staff at South Kingstown High School.

troll face, and thought it looked funny, so he included it in a mediocre comic, which probably took 20 seconds of thought. This might have been a little funny, but the fact that it made front page just really pisses me off. It seems like people just don't even care anymore, what goes into content. This is like the food industry in the early 1900's before The Jungle was written, where no one gave a **** what fell into the fryer vats.

This Old Boat
This thread will be an occasional photo documentary on the restoration of an old International A Class boat. In 1922, the class was created by the English magazine, Yachting Monthly using the 5.5 meter measurement rule adapted for model yachts. The rule is a relationship of waterline to sail area with draft, displacement, average free board and quarter beam measurements factored in to equal 1000 mm (39.37 inches). The result is a yacht that can vary in size from 58 to over 88 inches in length with displacements between 25 to 60 lbs. and carry 1500 to over 1800 square inches of sail area.
To begin the story, I was clued in on an A boat that was briefly discussed in a thread here on RCG. Several participants speculated on what it was so I followed the link to the listing on RCU. I contacted the owner, agreed on a price and by the weekend I was the new owner of A 442.

Man, she looks nearly there already!
Single panel sails... meh.
What else could she possibly need? Electronics?
|Dec 06, 2012, 12:28 PM
Yes, it looks good as it is but there are some issues that I want to address.
1. The boat was painted with Hobbypoxy paint. Nice, but I prefer the vintage look of natural wood above the waterline. So, it's coming off.
2. As it is a 50# boat I wanted to remove the keel weight (35#) to make it easier to maneuver so I've done that. I'll rework the attachment method so I can move the boat around without too much fuss.
3.The winch is an old 6V bang bang from Vortex Engineering. I plan to replace it with a Servo City gear box winch. An RMG 380 is nice but not necessary.
4. The sheeting arrangement used travelers on both sails. It probably worked ok with the Vortex winch but the jury is still out on that one.
5. The rudder skeg is broken and needs repair. I could saw it off and install a balanced rudder but that would detract the look from original. So, it gets fixed and reinforced.
6. I believe the mast and main boom are original to the boat but the jib boom is a replacement.
7. There are lots of Fisher fittings that I will re-use plus I have a good stash of the same. Nice, shiny Pekabe fittings are ok but I want to maintain the vintage look.
8. The sails are a single panel suit from Rod Carr and undersize. I believe they may measure in as a "B" suit and will be replaced with a nice proper sized suit. I'll probably use dacron as Tri-spi is too modern for the vintage period and Egyptian cotton doesn't last.
9. The deck was replaced with doorskin at some time in its life and was glued on with resorcinol adhesive. I'll leave it on but add some features to make it more attractive.
I'll post more pictures of my progress soon.

"Imagine what we'll eventually be able to do when we know this kind of stuff:
Which neighborhoods have the highest number of liquor stores
Which zip codes have the lowest diabetes rates
Which hospitals have the worst rates of antibiotic-resistant bacteria
Average wait times at medical clinics

Mmmm … pad Thai.
Another reason Apple has probably been hesitant to open up the iPhone to unapproved apps is, that people will write malicious apps, and the damage those apps cause could harm Apple and tarnish the iPhone's image. It's true, so far as it goes. But of course, people can jailbreak their iPhones now, and we've already seen reports of iPhone malware on those phones. At this point the iPhone and the App Store are so established that I don't see how any unapproved malware running on devices set to operate outside the protection of the App Store could seriously backfire on Apple.
I understand Apple's reasons for wanting to control the content on the App Store. But at this point I think it's time for the company to, once and for all, bat down the biggest liability of what has become its most important platform.

Supergirl #50 review
Best of all, Lana Lang - who recently succumbed to a mystery bug - is hale and hearty by story's end.
But it's the Lana business which brings down the gloom. Thing is, Lana spent ages not telling Kara about her illness, which proved to be part of Insect Queen's plot. Said plot came to fruition and several Metropolitans died. Supergirl blames Lana for not trusting her with the fact of her mystery illness, and says she doesn't want to be around her anymore.
If Lana made a bad call, it was for the right reasons - Supergirl had plenty of other things to worry about, so Lana was quietly getting the best doctors to investigate. In a moment of near-metafictive awareness, she tells Kara: But does this appease Kara? It does not; despite having insisted to Insect Queen earlier that 'fighting is what we Langs do', she doesn't want to be a Lang anymore because Lana ain't perfect. Suddenly the former princess of petulance is lecturing a woman who cares about her, and gave her a home, on right and wrong.
It's not one of Supergirl's better moments, representing a step backward in Kara's development as a person; a throwback to the unlikeable teenager represented on the late Michael Turner's inventory cover.
I expect different from writer Sterling Gates, who made it his business on joining the book to transform Kara into an admirable character, as opposed to the confused kid who won't listen to anyone, who lashes out. Likewise, suddenly Kara is swearing in Kryptonian this issue - what's Kryptonian for 'it's not big and it's not clever'?
I suppose I shouldn't nag a book purely because it doesn't meet my expectations, but if you can't whine on your own blog . . . darn it, I like the Lana/Kara friendship. While we've seen barely anything of Supergirl's secret ID, Linda Lang, we're told here that she's had it for a year. Now it seems unlikely we'll see Linda interact with Aunt Lana for awhile. Get it sorted, Gatesy! This (sweary moment aside) is the wonderful Supergirl you've given us, bring her back. And doesn't she look good? Sterling's artistic partner, Jamal Igle, backed by inkers Jon Sibal and Mark McKenna, produces first class superhero comics here. Supergirl looks noble, Insect Queen is creepy as all get out with her titchy extra arms, Superwoman is crazed, Lana sympathetic . . . there's nary a misstep to be found (psst, Gangbuster's costume is tragic, redesign it or bring back the old one!). The artists look to be having a whale of a time drawing Insect Queen's creepy crawly cohort, especially in a spread which has Supergirl and Gangbuster overwhelmed by them.
Colourists Nei Ruffino and Pete Patazis add extra life to the pages, while Jared K Fletcher is the innocent letterer forced to endure the cusses from Krypton.
There's a back-up too, a harmless short summing up public perception of Supergirl over the past four years, with an injection of Joseph Campbell. It's a tad pedestrian, but does the job, and the sentimental part of me is rather pleased to find it was co-written, with Jake Wood, by one Helen Slater, the big screen Supergirl. And anything that gets Cliff Chiang drawing Supergirl has to be good - I think this is the brightest I've ever seen his work rendered, what with his more usual stomping grounds being in DC's grittier regions. Take a bow, Dave McCaig.
All in all, a thoroughly decent issue of Supergirl, but sadder in tone than I'd prefer for an anniversary.
4 comments:
Excellent review, and I agree that the final scene between Lana and Kara was quite unexpected and bit of a downer. One thing I have noticed with Sterling Gate's run is that he always leaves a plot point unresolved, or creates a new one near the end of an issue to make the reader want more.ReplyDelete
As to the swearing, what is a Zith? She yells that after Gangbuster frees her. I used the key in back of the Superman/Batman: Supergirl trade, and that is what I got. Did the Kryptonian alphabet get modified recently?
Overall a great issue, but the estrangement between Kara and Lana took it down a notch.
Mart, I think you're putting your finger on something that the otherwise estimable Gates has done before, namely manipulate character's behaviour in frankly untypical ways in order to generate angst and future soapy plotlines. When Supergirl sat with Lana and explained to Lois about the death of Lucy, I was thoroughly unconvinced by Lois's response. It's one thing to say that in real life people can behave in untypical ways when faced with gried. Well, they do, but Lois was just plain rude in demanding Kara leave her flat. One of the greatest challenges in comics has been to establish Lois as an equal and worthy partner to the paragon that's her husband. The more she behaves in a cruel and unsupportive fashion, the more the difficult problem of believing she and Clark are married becomes. And having her just demand Kara leaves, without a word of support - aw, that's out-of-character, and just there to generate emotional heat. And the scene you describe here does just the same. Yes, teenagers struggle with their judgements, with their feelings. But this is an angst too far. There are ways of showing turmoil without undermining the reader's emotional stake in following a character's development. It's the sort of thing a good editor should be able to spot and, well, edit. Editors, as well as writers, are supposed to understand the mechanics of story and character better than this. I don't mean to sound angry. I'm really not. I just wish the bar could be raised just that little bit higher, because there's a lot of good being done in this title. I loved the scene of Kara and 'Superwoman' standing in silence suspended before the sun. And the scene of Superman agreeing with Kara about what kind of low-life Cat Grant was very fine too. But too many bum notes can ruin a fine record ....ReplyDelete
Great translating Gene, a zith, eh? That's a bit like Zrfff, where Mxyzptlk comes from . . . which is likely me overreaching!ReplyDelete
Ah Colsmi, the Lois thing, yeah, that was a big off-note - very daytime soap; it may have worked with real actors but on the page didn't come off. As you say, in Lois' position she should know so much better. How many times has her husband beem mind-controlled to take over the world, wrongly maligned, or framed?
I'd be happy for next issue to open with just one more out-of-nowhere mood swing, as Kara realises she's been a bit of a pultroon, and apologises to Lana. Voila, business as usual.
Mart, if I ruled the world, not only would every day be the first day of spring, but you'd get Supergirl to write, or if you prefer, edit.ReplyDelete

According to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton:
To keep up with changes that affect our citizens and our planet, we need to update our official ties with Beijing. President Barack Obama and Chinese President Hu Jintao are committed to a new dialogue as part of the administration's efforts to build a positive, cooperative and comprehensive relationship with Beijing. Simply put, few global problems can be solved by the U.S. or China alone. And few can be solved without the U.S. and China together. The Chinese have a wise aphorism: "When you are in a common boat, you need to cross the river peacefully together." Today, we join our Chinese counterparts in grabbing an oar and starting to row.
At 21st Century International Cultural Exchange we believe that now, more than ever, it is imperative that the US and China share in international exchange. Our mission is to cultivate a deeper appreciation of Chinese and American culture by having individuals share experiences unique to their customs and ways of life.
To fully respond to our mission, 21st Century International Culture Exchange creates solutions designed to bring quality Chinese individuals to quality client institutions through dedication and innovation. Our methods, values and strategy establish us as industry pioneers. Our experience, professionalism and innovation empower us to be industry leaders.
