Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

I've noticed that DS starts this crazy wild banshee screaming every time he is about to hit a developmental milestone - walking, vocab explosion, etc. He doesn't scream the rest of the time, at all - but during these times, holy cow!!! I'm constantly surprised people are still anywhere near us, and that the glass hasn't shattered.
So we are in a scream-y period, and I'm waiting to see what comes next! Does anyone else's toddler do this? What signs tip you off that something big and new is on the way?

Premierleague.com rifles through the annals of the Barclays Premier League to find significant events.
Chelsea manager Claudio Ranieri strengthened his midfield with the capture of Juan Sebastian Veron from Manchester United and Joe Cole from West Ham United.
Veron, then 28, had spent two seasons at Old Trafford following his high-profile move from Lazio, making 51 Barclays Premier League appearances and scoring seven goals. He moved to Chelsea for a fee of £15m.
"It's always difficult letting good players go," said Man United manager Sir Alex Ferguson at the time. "But we are very, very well off in the midfield and the overall package made it too interesting for us not to take it."
"I'm looking to learn from the players we have got here"
Joe Cole
Cole, 21, had come through the West Ham youth system and became an important member of the first team after making his debut in 1998. He signed for Chelsea for a fee of £6.6m following West Ham's relegation from the Barclays Premier League.
"I'm looking to learn from the players we have got here," he said. "First and foremost, the challenge is to get into the side when you come to a club like this, but I'm ready for that and I'll always give 100% every game.
"I used to come to Chelsea to watch, I used to sit in The Shed a lot. I used to love watching good players - I used to love watching Dennis Wise and before that Kerry Dixon. I just love my football."
The pair were brought to Stamford Bridge during a busy summer of transfer activity, which also included the arrivals of the likes of Glen Johnson, Geremi, Damien Duff, Hernan Crespo and Claude Makele, Wayne Bridge.
Veron was hampered by injury during his first season with the club, making seven League appearances, and after a season on loan at Inter Milan he signed a permanent deal with the Italian club in 2005.
Cole won three League titles and two FA Cups during his time at Chelsea, scoring 27 goals in 183 League appearances, before leaving for Liverpool in 2010. He is now back at West Ham United after signing an 18-month deal with the Hammers in January.

Doodle While You're Bored? Now You Can Tweet Your Notebook Art With UbiSketch
We've all been there. The boring lecture or meeting, unable to leave, staring blankly at a piece of lined paper meant for notes… and in the blink of an eye, that lined paper takes on a life of its own with doodles of hearts, suns, lightening bolts and other squiggles.
UbiSketch, a "real-time sketch-based communication tool", doesn't want these pieces of notebook art to sit forgotten in a pile in the corner of your room. Instead, they've developed a system that "reads" your sketches, and allows you to post them directly to Twitter or Facebook.

Quality Inn
The rural setting poses unique challenges for social work and counseling practice. With tight social circles, everybody tends to know everyone else's business, even without trying. Dual relationships often cannot be avoided because of the limited number of persons for roles. Services may be limited or non-existent and the physical environment is not conducive to anonymity. To complicate matters further, the social consequences of ethical violations can be intense. In this session, we'll explore ethical considerations in rural settings, study a decision-making model and apply ethical principles to some realistic scenarios.

As service providers encounter more diverse populations in their practice, it's important to understand and address the ethical, systemic and practice issues that can arise when serving individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP). These clients may include refugees, immigrants, asylees or individuals requiring services to be delivered using an interpreter. They may be adults or children. Using a fictitious but typical example of a refugee client from Thailand who is referred for psychological testing, we'll conceptualize case scenarios from taking the initial phone call through completing the evaluation and sending out the report. You'll learn how to manage issues prior to the patient's arrival, during the service delivery and after the session. Each section will address the issues that providers will want to understand to deliver ethical and culturally informed services. We'll examine general practices that apply to individuals from any culture with some special attention given to Hmong and other Asian cultures.Combine and Save – Take the January 29 Ethics and Boundaries workshop with Childhood ADHD and receive $48 off the regular combined price.

Professionals who work in hospice care or palliative care have intense contact with persons who are facing critical decisions as they see the end of life approaching. This puts into sharp focus the boundaries of the relationships among the professional, the client, and the client's family. This workshop explores the dimensions of those relationships and the implications for professional ethics in regard to client autonomy, self-determination, information-sharing, advanced directives, assisted suicide, "pull-the-plug" decisions, and other issues. Participants are invited to bring their own scenarios and to engage in small-group exercises in ethical decision making.

Born into a musical Tucson family, Ronstadt and her siblings performed their own music at an early age. Ronstadt arrived in Los Angeles in the mid-'60s, just as the folk rock and country rock movements were beginning to bloom. As part of the coterie of like-minded artists who played at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, she helped define the musical style that dominated American music in the '70s. In Simple Dreams, Ronstadt reveals the journey that led to her long-lasting success, including stories behind many of her beloved songs.

- Each voucher is good for one signed copy of Simple Dreams, redeemable starting on Saturday, October 5 at 7pm. Due to Ms. Ronstadt's recent Parkinson's diagnosis, not all books may be signed.
- Letter groups (printed on top of ticket) will be called at 6pm to fill seats and designated standing room.
- Space cannot be guaranteed for late arrivals.
- Event details are subject to change.

Renovated farmhouse infused with warmth in Northern Italy
This private house in the foothills of northern Italy was designed by Caprioglio Associati Architects for a couple who wished to trade a tiny apartment for a renovated farmhouse in the country. The couple wanted to move out of the city of Asolo to move to the country where they could start a family. They moved a short drive from Asolo to an area called Monfumo, or "silent hills." After two years of searching and three real estate agents later, they found a crumbling and abandoned farmhouse with an overgrown vineyard, tucked away amidst the rolling hills. They were not able to raise the existing structure due to strict government protections of existing buildings. It would have been faster and cheaper to tear down the existing structure, yet the homeowners liked its character so much, they wanted to keep thinking their home would be the old structure.
After preserving the exterior facade, the interior was given a modern update. Because this was once a farmer's house to store crops, the rooms were tiny and there were a lot of them. The homeowners wanted a luminous space to capture the beauty of the surrounding environment. They wanted their living areas to be at the very top to make the most of the light. The most defining element of the first floor is a massive central staircase and catwalk system composed of glass and steel. Due to the high volume of the structure, the team decided that the home would be comprised of four floors connected via an elevator accessed from an underground garage and wine cellar.
The homeowners wanted. The homeowner stated that

Catalan farmhouse restored in Spain: Villa CP
Villa CP is an old Catalan farmhouse that has been completely restored by Barcelonese studio ZEST Architecture, situated in Girona, Spain. A 21st century house has been created within the structure of the old stone property. The existing stone walls have been largely rebuilt, with enormous openings towards the landscape linking the house to its spectacular surroundings: a National Park of cork oak with distant views towards the Mediterranean.
ZEST Architecture's work is always marked by sustainability, so it may not come as a surprise that this project sports materials and elements such as a natural pool whose water is filtered by plants and gravel, insulation with locally harvested and produced cork, clay and stray panel finishes in the interior and heating / cooling through a geothermal installation.
The old and the new (that which will age) strengthen each other in this project through their opposition and juxtaposition. The old has been left visible with all its scars, while new materials such as Corten steel, wood and clay, were chosen for the beauty of their natural imperfections and the way in which the traces left by time make them even more beautiful.

Renovation of an historic farmhouse in Switzerland
Kirchplatz Office + Residence is the renovation of an historic farmhouse by Oppenheim Architecture + Design, situated within the historic center core of the city of Muttenz/Basel, Switzerland. The original farmhouse was constructed in 1743. Today the converted farmhouse serves as an office for an architectural design company, provides community meeting space, and serves as a compelling link to a new, adjacent private residence.
The new design aimed to provide a fresh interpretation to the existing traditional features of the historic farmhouse building and it's interior. This is achieved by creating new openings for natural daylight and by using a crisp white finish in the interiors, which juxtapose against the texture of the old wood and through the way in which the spaces open up, overlap, and merge together with one another.
The sustainability considerations included maintaining an energy-efficient building through the use of current MINERGIE (energy efficiency) construction standards, solar roof panels, a sustainable choice of materials such as reclaimed wood used for the facade, and the restoration of existing architectural elements where possible.
The project also included the design of a new single family house adjacent to the adaptively re-used historic farmhouse that was converted into the office. This elegant contemporary residential structure juxtaposes with the historic building. The new and old share commonalities of materials and colors, yet have distinctly different expressions with the interplay of modern and historic delighting the senses.
The 3-floor house is organized with the master bedroom and guest bedroom on the top floor; the kitchen, dining and living spaces on the ground level; and the children's bedrooms below ground with a ramped outdoor backyard terrace leading up to the ground level.

House on the House in Austria by Looping Architecture
House on the house or Forum Limbach is an old farm house in Limbach im Burgenland, Austria designed by Looping Architecture. The farmyard was expanded by an architecturally exciting chapter; the annex serves as a discussion forum and venue. On top sits the upper storey as "house on the house" with the principal's private rooms. The new building, fitted into the historically grown farmyard structure, closes the rural square edifice and at the same time opens up the previously enclosed inner yard. This apparently contradictory double function is made possible by the building's clever horizontal bisection. The "house on the house", entirely clad in a red polyurethane skin, faces east-west, the necessary rotation out of the original property's axes emphasizes that it is a newcomer in the conglomerate. It is accessed via a self-supporting stairway quoting the ladders which belong to the farmyard image. In the farmyard's biography, the annex project marks a visionary new beginning without overwriting the property's naturalness.

Impressive salvaged farmhouse in The Netherlands
This stunning renovated farmhouse is located in Utrecht, Netherlands, designed by interior design firm VIVA VIDA. The farmhouse was quite spacious and the clients wanted it to be designed with salvaged furnishings and materials. They wanted the original atmosphere and function but with any corny interiors. The designers found the perfect match between the original character of the house and contemporary, craft customization, fitting the atmosphere that the clients wanted in the areas and in the way they wanted to live in the house.
"You can spend your time relaxing yourself and you keep surprised and puzzled. All of the spaces are intimate and with its own character. They form entirely original details like the crochet stair parts and (re) use of old materials. The functional design of the kitchen and the special box beds make it personal. Even the wallpaper in our son's bedroom is made from a photograph of my grandfather as a child around here plays. "

Yellow and white dent, brown midrib, waxy, high-lysine, high-oil, sweet, and pop are examples of corn types grown in Pennsylvania. Each has unique characteristics that affect its use and, in some cases, how it is grown. Of these, yellow dent and brown midrib are the most popular in Pennsylvania.
Yellow Dent Corn
Most of the corn crop in the United States is yellow dent. Its vitamin A content, high feed value, and availability of adapted superior hybrids account for its extensive use. Of the cereal grains, it contains the highest content of carotene (vitamin A). Dent corn originated from crosses of flint and floury corns. Dent hybrids vary in the proportion of hard and soft endosperm.
Brown Midrib CornBrown midrib plants are characterized by a brown pigmentation in the leaf midrib at the V4 to V6 stage and a light brown coloration of the pith after tasseling. Brown midrib hybrid contains a gene (bm3) that causes a lower lignin content in corn plant tissue. Lignin is a relatively indigestible compound that limits the digestibility of the fiber in the corn plant. The reduced lignin in brown midrib corn results in silage with fiber that is more digestible than normal corn.
Animal feeding trials have shown about 10 percent greater intake and increased milk production with brown midrib silage, as compared to normal silage. Brown midrib lines frequently have been low yielding, however, and have had poor standability if left for grain production. Although recently released brown midrib hybrids have improved these features, they still are lower than those of comparable normal hybrids. In our trials, brown midrib lines have yielded about 10 to 15 percent lower than conventional hybrids in fields where they are best adapted. When considering a brown midrib corn planting, growers should weigh the potential for improved milk or animal gains, which can be significant, against the higher production costs and lower yields per acre. New brown midrib hybrids can contain several bio-tech traits that are improving the stress tolerance of these lines.

Rolls-Royce Reveals The World's Only LEGO® Jet Engine
Really, I was building jet engines from Lego in the 60s. It was the red brick with the 8 thingys on it.
I wonder if that got to the part where you get 3/4 of the way through building it before realising that you had missed out an all important brick and couldn't go any further until you dismantled half of it to fix the error.
And I'll be willing to bet that after building it a few times you wouldn't be able to do it without the instructions (minus the outer and middle pages of course).
Maybe just me but seems like a great g33k fan, prolly running using electric motors

WASHINGTON — The Senate confirmed President Obama's nomination of Senator John F. Kerry to be secretary of state on Tuesday, handing the Massachusetts Democrat a redemptive career victory that ensconces him in an elite echelon of national leadership nine years after his failed bid for the presidency.
The 94-to-3 vote was the final hurdle for Kerry, whose nomination roared through the Senate after Obama's first choice of UN Ambassador Susan Rice encountered stiff GOP opposition and never got off the ground.
Kerry met virtually no resistance, as his colleagues on both sides of the aisle lauded his 28 years of service in the Senate and his deep experience in international affairs, most recently as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He is expected to give a farewell speech in the Senate on Wednesday.
Little suspense hung over the proceedings after Kerry cruised through a confirmation hearing last week before the Foreign Relations Committee. The accolades and ceremony began Tuesday morning when the committee — in just 10 minutes with almost no discussion — approved Kerry's nomination, setting up the late afternoon vote by the full Senate. Even harsh administration critics such as Republicans Marco Rubio of Florida and Rand Paul of Kentucky joined the unanimous voice vote in committee.
In a statement, Obama said he was pleased that Kerry was confirmed with "overwhelming bipartisan support. From his decorated service in Vietnam to his decades in the Senate as a champion of American global leadership, John's distinguished career has prepared him to guide American diplomacy in the years ahead."

Thanksgivukkah! Recipes for the Hybrid Holiday
Are you ready for a once-in-a-lifetime holiday event? It's Thankgivukkah! On November 28th, 2013, the first full day of Hanukkah will coincide with Thanksgiving Day — an event that won't occur again for an estimated 70,000 years (even the other days of Hanukkah won't fall on Thanksgiving until 2070). So what's the best way to celebrate the double holiday? Combining all the best foods from each into a blow-out feast.
Not only do Thanksgiving and Hanukkah celebrations offer some of best food of the year (turkey, latkes, pie — need we say more?), but the two actually have more in common than you might think. They both honor triumph over a unique difficulty — Hanukkah celebrates a small amount of oil that supposedly burned for eight days after the rededication of a temple following the successful revolt against an anti-Jewish monarchy, and the first Thanksgiving celebrated a successful harvest after a rather grim period when the Pilgrims first came to America. Both holidays use food as a triumphant symbol and a way to remember our blessings.
Regardless of your religious beliefs, you can try your hand at a Thankgivukkah feast for a fun way to spice up the the holidays this year. We've got everything you need for an unforgettable meal, including plenty of hybrid dishes and creative ways to serve all your favorite Thanksgiving and Hanukkah foods together. Happy Thanksgivukkah!
By Zoe Bain
Cranberry Sauce-Filled Sufganiyot
Another of Hanukkah's best foods are the Sufganiyot (jelly or cream-filled doughnuts). But rather than jelly, these sweet treats are stuffed with T-Day cranberry sauce.

Most boring siggy ever goes to: Me!

Most boring siggy ever goes to: Me!
I've seen a lot of theories online, but the most plausible-sounding one is legal problems with their record label.
They've been having issues in the past with their name, etc. It might just be a huge legal thing. That would explain why none of the band members have said anything useful, for fear of getting sued, why the original breaking-up-letter-thing on the site was so cold-hearted and vague. It was probably written by their manager/s.
It would also explain why Lyn-Z was the only one who could say anything helpful.
Hopefully they'll sort it all out and come back. But, as long as they're happy, I'm happy, I suppose. It's always great to see Frankie doing things with Leathermouth and Death Spells. Gee's work with Grant Morrison has been awesome, and we're all looking out for Ray and Mikey.
What I hate is when people stop listening to their music because they've broken up. Just because there isn't anything new coming from them, collaboratively, doesn't mean that we can't enjoy the music they did create.
But, the MCRmy will be ready and waiting for the day that they come back, if they ever do.
We'll keep on bringing the bullets.
We'll keep on seeking for revenge.
We will march in the Black Parade, and keep on living in the Danger Days.
Keep running, Killjoys.
Wow! I said something in this thread. I must really like you!
I'm kidding.
I hate everyone.
(unless you're Gupi1999. Then I love you.)

"AquaGGR" wrote:Let me just say that out of all the "emo" bands, MCR WAS THE MOST AWESOME.
I'll elaborate more...
MCR wasn't your stereotypical "emo", they didn't scream, they didn't have the typical "emo" sound, and Gerard's vocals were more Billy Corgan-esque than a high-pitched typical emo singing voice. Also, MCR was artsier and actually had complex concept albums, they took influences from Glam Rock and Hardcore Punk bands. I actually prefer the garage rock-synthy-pop-punk sound of Danger Days to the polished gothic sound of The Black Parade.
MCR wasn't even emo, IMO. They were like '90s alt. rock and classic emo.
I'm pretty sure the break-up was genuine, there probably isn't a conspiracy.
Also, I'm excited to hear Ray and Voltaire's collab.

What to do when the new shake roof buckles?
In a home renovation, the owners decided to install a cedar shake roof, but it buckled in the first serious rain.
So far Martin and I have been extremely fortunate in our attempt to renovate Sheep Dog Hollow in as green and economical manner as possible. While the 100-year-old farmhouse has needed a complete overhaul – from its once impressive granite foundation to its crumbling roof – we've been blessed to work with capable carpenters and masons who've dealt quickly with whatever problem the old house has thrown up at them. And there have been plenty.
That said, we've been spared the harrowing scenarios that can be found with a quick Google of "home renovation nightmares."
But now we have a problem, and a serious one. The new cedar shake roof that was finally put on in the past two weeks has buckled after the first serious rain. And not just a little.
Just two days ago, you could look up and see the beauty the natural cedar shakes lent to the old place which, if I do say so myself, is looking rather pleased and proud of itself with its recent upgrades.
Now, thanks to the buckled shakes, it's looking kinda rumpled – like it needs to brush its hair.
Our roofing contractors are from a local company with a good reputation. They're aware of the problem and they've assured us that it will be taken care of. And I have to trust them, since I've already paid 98 percent of their bill and the check has cleared. (I know, I know, I should have waited at least 30 days to be sure there were no problems. But they asked for payment of most of the cost when it was three-fourths of the way done. Is this common practice?)
Now, I have to mention here that I was never a big fan of putting on cedar shake roof. I wanted a standing seam metal roof, like Thomas Jefferson used at Monticello and also the people who built my grandparents' old Virginia farmhouse.
But in the spirit of compromise, I bowed to the wishes of my loving fiancé, who wanted his "green" roof also be beautiful. (This was also a question of taste since I think standing seam metal roofs are just as lovely…)
Now, I'm not going to engage in "I told you so…." (Although, just by mentioning this, I sort of already have. Forgive me, Martin!) Many of you who commented on the debate agreed a standing metal seam roof was a better, longer-lasting green option and I thank you.
But there were plenty, too, who favored the cedar, and they had good advice, like that from Erik Eselstyn of North Montpelier, Vt.,, who counseled it was important to make sure the roof is properly vented:
"Most important was using CedarBreather beneath the shingles. CedarBreather, a mat of tangled plastic strings, allows the constant flow of ambient air upwards beneath the shingles. Yup, the ridges must be vented."
The roofers, indeed, did make sure Sheep Dog's roof was properly vented. And we haven't even put in the insulation yet, which could have caused moisture to build up if it also wasn't properly vented, according to the Guardian Roof website:
"Buckled shingles could fracture and cause leaking. This could also be a symptom of a much more serious moisture issue. This can be related to shingle failure, or buckling of the sheeting beneath the roof. If you have buckling in your roof contact a professional for an inspection and diagnosis."
Other than that, I was surprised to find very little on the Web about buckling cedar shake roofs. Although, ironically, the Stucco Co. did have a good discussion about buckling cedar shake siding.
Our contractors have said the problem might be that some kiln-dried shakes got mixed with the green shakes. Or maybe, the shakes buckled because they were installed in the chill of the winter. Although last week, when most of the shakes were put on, it was a "balmy" 35 to 45 degrees F. here in Connecticut.
So here is a plea for advice and counsel from any of you cedar shake roof enthusiasts who may have some advice to offer this newbie green renovator.

10 Tattoos Drake Might Get Next

The Odds Of Drake Getting It Tattooed On Himself: 4 to 1
Why We Wouldn't Surprised To See Him Get It: Drake is currently serving as a Global Ambassador for the Raptors. He's also a longtime fan and seems committed to trying to make the Raps one of the best teams in the NBA. So what better way to show his support for the team than by tattooing the team's logo on himself? If that doesn't convince free agents to sign with Toronto, nothing will.

Lefteroff Fund
To recognize Tracy Lefteroff for his legacy of commitment and dedication to entrepreneurship, investment and innovation in the life sciences, California Healthcare Institute (CHI), the Fogarty Institute for Innovation (FII), and PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC) have collaborated to develop The Lefteroff Fund.
FII and the Lefteroff Fund
Tracy was an avid supporter and Board Member of the Fogarty Institute for Innovation. The Institute stands for, and is dedicated to, a mission that mirrors Tracy's. That's why CHI, FII and PwC have arranged that The Lefteroff Fund be housed and administered by the Fogarty Institute for Innovation, a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit dedicated to mentoring, training and inspiring the next generation of medical innovators. FII programs offer educational opportunities, professional support, resources and mentorship to those who would likely fail without it ultimately to benefit patients by ensuring that revolutionary new medical innovations are developed and made available to those in need. The Institute achieves this important mission by surrounding innovators with educational and facility resources that help maximize their chances of transforming sound ideas into practical solutions. The stewardship that is in place at FII is a perfect blend of experience and dedication to further support Tracy's vision.
Program Areas
The Lefteroff Fund helps spur innovative ideas, and develops and educates promising medical innovators who have demonstrated significant potential in the area of medical advancement. Awards help bring concepts to fruition that will create new technologies, therapies, diagnostics and products for patients with unmet medical needs. Awards and scholarships educate students, inventors and the community about entrepreneurship, innovation and investment in the life sciences.

I attended the UW NU game Saturday and came away really excited about how this season could turn out. First off the pokes offense appears to be as advertised. Fast paced and with a top notch QB at the helm these guys could be dangerous. In fact in the airport at Lincoln a cop came up to us and said that he thought Brett Smith was the best athlete on the field, from either team. I left the game thinking the exact same thing. I feel when we get into a game against a team with less talent than Nebraska (Idaho for example); the pace the offense moves at will be even faster.
A few interesting things I noticed that were not really mentioned in other articles I have read were 1.) In the second half there was a play where Taylor Martinez ran for a first down, he was pushed out of bounds in the process. Both of these events (first down and obviously out of bounds) should stop the game clock. However the clock kept on going taking at least 30 seconds off the game clock. That amount of time could have been the difference at the end of the game. 2.) I was mind boggled at the holding call on our last drive where Brett ran for a first down on a quick snap keeper. He ran around in the back field all game, yet the play with the holding call happened on a play so fast I doubt that there would have been time to hold at all.
It was fun to see how quiet the record sell out crowd was at the end of the game. You would have thought that the pokes won with the Nebraska fans somber exit from the stadium. In fact many NU fans stood and clapped for the cowboys as they left the field.

It has been awhile since Wyoming put a video out for the football team. Usually teams don't put out a video after a shocking less. I like the message the Pokes are putting out here.

While many fans have spent the last six days bitching and calling for coaches to be fired. I'm more interested in seeing how the Pokes respond after such a low moment. I'm pumped for the game this weekend!

Facebook, I asked the question "does anyone use Flickr anymore?" I asked because I was, kind of, toying with the idea of deleting my old Flickr account. I hadn't used it in about a year. It felt like a chore to post on there, or I'd just forget - Flickr seems so isolated from those other platforms. I've also had a lot of my work stolen from Flickr (my own fault, in the old days I had no idea about resizing my images for the web). Plus, I thought it was about time I started a Facebook Page as I hear that's a great marketing/promotion tool. I just felt I was spreading myself too thin. So, I asked the question.
The response was huge.
It seems that I'm not the only one who's been posting less on Flickr these days, if at all. But there are still some people hanging out there. Some folk said they didn't like the new (not so new, now) Flickr layout. Some said that it was still the best platform to view and host visual work. A lot of people felt that these days they used Facebook and Instagram more. There were lots of pros and cons. I was swayed, back and fore, by each point made in each comment.
So I went on Flickr to have a look around again. To remind myself of why I loved it SO much back in the day. To reminisce. And, then I started posting again. I downloaded the app to my new phone, which makes it easier to post and view other people's work. But, since then I haven't blogged! Now, I've had an invite to Ello, am still setting up my Facebook Page and have, almost, been convinced to start a Pinterest account.
I'm not sure what the moral of the story is.
Outside of the online world and my online life, I've been spreading myself too thin too. I've been doing all sorts of Art Fairs and Artisan's Markets in this run up to Christmas. Getting out and sharing my sketchbooks, meeting people and promoting my work. Exactly, what I do online then.
I'm still not sure what the moral of this story is.
And, quite frankly, I'm way too tired to work it out. Up early in the morning for a weekend of Christmas markets. As I've recently noticed that my scanner is playing up, and that my scans seem very odd colours, so there's something else I need to replace, alongside my car and my washing machine. So, yeah, keep on going, keep on working, keep the wolf from the door and keep trying to eke out a living out of this art business. Maybe I just need to accept that I'll be spreading myself thin for the foreseeable future. Perhaps that's it.

WPP Downgraded To Hold
Today, the market is up and up as investors respond to Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's plan to save the banking sector. Meanwhile, Citi analysts have downgraded WPP's stock from buy to hold. On the London market, WPP was a "prominent faller" dropping 1.24 per cent.
What did Wilson Phillips say? Something about knowing that there is pain, but if you hold on for one more day, you can break free, break free from the chains? Hold on WPP. Just hold on, okay?

Catherine Kreatsoulas is a Fulbright Scholar and a Heart Stroke Research Fellow working under the mentorship of Dr. Subramanian at the Harvard School of Public Health in the Department of Social and Behavioural Sciences. Dr. Kreatsoulas received her Doctorate degree in Health Research Methodology (clinical epidemiology and biostatistics) from McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada, in 2011. Her doctoral dissertation entitled, "Understanding Sex/Gender in Cardiovascular Disease" found some controversial findings and several studies have received wide international media attention.
Dr. Kreatsoulas' research is focused on developing innovative ways of exploring new methodologic approaches and frameworks that incorporate aspects from clinical and social epidemiology to improve the health outcomes of individuals and populations. Current research interests are clustered around four broad areas of chronic disease epidemiology: to examine the influences of distal and proximal indicators of health/disease, including social determinants of health, among both paediatric and adult populations, to explore the newly emerging concept of multimorbidity outcomes of individuals, to identify social inequalities at a population and global health level and to develop new frameworks that encompass a holistic approach that seek to incorporate findings across the life course.
Some of Dr. Kreatsoulas' other pursuits include degrees in physical (forensic) anthropology and piano performance, where she maintained a private music studio for 20 years.

With ARCON Associates Inc., the district's new architectural firm, on board, the Hinsdale High School District 86 Facilities Committee reviewed ongoing and possible future capital projects Aug. 27.
Administrators hope to go out to bid next week for construction of the girls softball field at Hinsdale Central. If the bid documents are issued next week, construction could begin by Oct. 1, Chief Financial Officer William Eagan said.
The district also is planning to install paths around the baseball field at Central that comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Central Athletic Director Dan Jones said the school has received numerous complaints about inaccessibility issues.
At Centennial Field, there's no access except across the grass, Jones said.
Robert Adamik, director of buildings and grounds at Hinsdale South, is investigating new lights in the halls and stairwells that would be safer and more energy-efficient, and investigating grants to help pay for the upgrades.
Facilities Committee Chairman Edward Corcoran is eager for a safety audit of the district property, that would be conducted by someone specially trained in industrial plant safety. He first recommended the inspection last year, after he noticed safety issues with ladders and stairs employees use.
A study of the sewer system is underway at the Hinsdale Central campus.
Central has sewers that were built when sewage and stormwater runoff were not always separated.
The study, conducted by Erickson Engineering, identifies the discharge points for the sanitary sewers and surface water, so as to provide clearer information to the Flagg Creek Water Reclamation District, which issues permits for the district's construction projects.
Erickson is expected to present its final report in September, Eagan said.
The district is not yet fully satisfied with the landscaping outside Hinsdale Central. The drainage in the rain gardens that run along the front of the school had to be repaired after the plants died in the spring of 2013.
The rain gardens now are functioning, but drainage problems remain in the large rectangular planters on either side of the entrance.
"After any sizable rain, there's standing water in the planters," Central Principal Mark Kolkman said.
The plan is to drill holes in the planters to drain them.Tags: Hinsdale District 86

One of the largest and most populous countries in Africa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is also perhaps the most star-crossed. It gained independence from Belgium in 1960 and promptly became the site of Africa's first coup d'état. It then suffered for 32 years under the dominion of the American-backed dictator Mobutu Sese Seko, the continent's most corrupt and influential despot. Over the past 10 years, it's been the scene of the world's deadliest conflict since World War II.
In spring 2008, Congo's beleaguered government unveiled a package of Chinese investments totaling $9.3 billion, a figure later reduced, for complex reasons involving International Monetary Fund pressure, to $6 billion—still roughly half of Congo's GDP. China will build massive new copper and cobalt mines; 1,800 miles of railways; 2,000 miles of roads; hundreds of clinics, hospitals, and schools; and two new universities. Speaking before the parliament, Pierre Lumbi, the country's infrastructure minister, compared the package to the Marshall Plan, and called it "the foundation on which the growth of our economy is going to be built."
In exchange, China will get almost 11 million tons of copper and 620,000 tons of cobalt, which it will extract over the next 25 years—a "resource for infrastructure" swap that China first pioneered, on a smaller scale, in Angola in 2004. Congo will choose from a menu of Chinese construction companies—pre-vetted and supplied with credit by China's Export-Import Bank—which typically begin (and end) their work quickly, dispatching hundreds or thousands of workers to do the job.
Much of the Chinese mining activity will center around Lubumbashi, founded by Belgium in 1910 and built up with forced labor in the 1930s. Lubumbashi has long lived by the whims of distant global markets, its booms unfailingly followed by busts. The Belgians, British, Americans, South Africans, and even the Congolese themselves, under Mobutu, have all enjoyed runs there.
During my visit, the city was drenched in seasonal rains, but it bathes year-round in a deep-set shabbiness. Still, traces of charm and bygone ambition survive. An imposing whitewashed courthouse faces a large traffic roundabout circling an antiquated steam locomotive once used to haul copper-laden cars. The once grand European-style post office still stands, though its concourse is given over to Chinese merchants selling cell phones from rickety glass cabinets.
Evidence of Chinese industry is not hard to find in Lubumbashi. In many neighborhoods, Chinese road crews are busy sealing muddy, potholed avenues with asphalt. They're also paving an old dirt route east to Kiniama, and building another road west, to copper-rich Kipushi.
Well before the new ore-for-development deal was signed, the city and its surroundings had become a sort of new Promised Land for Chinese fortune seekers. As copper prices rose fourfold between August 2003 and August 2008, thousands of migrants descended on the region, like forty-niners during the American gold rush. They were drawn by word of mouth about the mineral riches and the ease of doing business here. Congolese officials were reputedly easy to bribe. Visas could be cheaply bought, and so could mining permits, often in the name of poor Congolese front men.
Under a white-hot afternoon sun, I made my way to a vast, Chinese-dominated industrial zone at the city's northern edge, where copper-smelting operations sat behind high walls. There, I met Li Yan, a brisk, 30-ish man who manages a medium-size copper-mining company. Li's company, with its giant smelting oven, heavy rock-crushing equipment, and half-dozen oversize trucks, looks well funded and well run. But he shook his head in disgust as he spoke to me about the copper rush. "There's a belief among Chinese people that they can realize anything," he told me. "But the people who came here had no experience and no preparation. It was like children running around, really a mess."
Many Chinese fortune seekers had hired African work gangs to dig for copper, sometimes even in Lubumbashi's red-clay streets. "They were profiteers and speculators," said one local businessman. "Congo got nothing from them." Most of them dug "no more than 20 feet deep, which requires no investment at all." The government belatedly tried to reassert control, requiring all those who mined copper to smelt it as well, and to make more-substantial investments in equipment, in order to generate more jobs and tax revenue and to make the industry more sustainable. In response, small operators scrambled to build small, inefficient furnaces. In 2008, as prices tumbled from $9,000 a ton to a low of $3,500, the makeshift smelters closed down and the Chinese owners fled, leaving their Congolese workers unpaid and the landscape littered with industrial refuse.
Beijing's giant construction package, of course, is on an entirely different scale than the fly-by-night mine operations that have come and gone in Lubumbashi. But the conditions under which the deal was signed were in many ways similar to those under which many Chinese fortune seekers had obtained their permits. Negotiations, conducted in secret, were entrusted to one of President Joseph Kabila's close personal confidants, a man without a government portfolio. Since then, questions about whose interests are being served by the deal—those of everyday Congolese, or merely those of Kabila's cronies—have multiplied.
In the center of Lubumbashi, just off the roundabout with the old locomotive, I met with Kalej Nkand, director of the Congolese Central Bank for Katanga province. Inside, the bank faintly resembles a musty warehouse—cavernous, dimly lit, and mostly open. It was getting toward lunchtime, and a half-dozen employees sat at metal desks scattered about the office's large open floor. One woman pecked at an antiquated computer; the rest read old newspapers or dozed.

Will Lions trade up in first round?
April, 18, 2014
Apr 18

The Detroit Lions' top needs arguably are at wide receiver and safety. Early on this offseason, we saw wideouts Sammy Watkins and Mike Evans connected to the Lions in the first round of mock drafts. However, their draft stocks have increased to the point where neither of them may be available at No. 10.

Bridge suit settled: Owners of oil tanker that got loose, hit Long bridge will pay $1.3m to Maine, N.H.
Thursday, March 27, 2014
The Maine Department of Transportation announced the $1.3 million settlement in a press release Wednesday afternoon, bringing to a close a months-long discussion between the three parties as to who was at fault for the accident.
On April 1, 2013, the Harbor Feature, a 473-foot Portuguese oil tanker, came loose from its moorings at the New Hampshire State Pier in Portsmouth, eventually drifting toward and striking the bridge, which spans the Piscataqua River between the two states. Initial investigations revealed the ship wedged against the steel structure of the bridge, damaging a concrete pier and bending pieces of steel truss. Ted Talbot, press secretary for the Maine DOT, said the accident resulted in a combination of superficial and structural damage, though the bridge remained operational.
Shortly after the incident, the states filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in New Hampshire. They alleged the incident occurred because the crew "failed to properly secure the vessel at her berth," resulting in the "parting of her mooring lines." The suit estimated damages above $2.4 million. The owners, however, accused the states of negligence. In October, the two sides agreed to enter mediation in the hopes of reaching a settlement.
"That doesn't mean that you don't do proper repairs to make that sound," Talbot said. "It's an aging bridge, but you still need to do the repairs. We're still in the design phase of the new bridge, still trying to get a cost target for that."
