A striking piece of public art is adding some vibrant colour to an underprivileged district of Rio de Janeiro as part of a neighbourhood regeneration linked to the city's hosting of the Olympic Games.
The renewal project for the deprived port area is taking place ahead of the 2016 Olympics.
Brazilian graffiti artist Toz has created the new artwork along with a group of friends, who are filling the 98-foot tall mural with caricatures and great splashes of colour.
The sheer scale of the piece is reflected in the fact that Toz and eight other artists have already got through 1,500 cans of spray paint in creating the mural.
"Graffiti was born in those areas - the more distant and neglected areas - and today here we are, painting the side of a building, so I think not just here, but in any place which is destroyed and neglected is a perfect place for graffiti artists," Toz said.
Travellers calling into Rio as part of tailor made holidays in Brazil in the run-up to the 2016 Olympics will witness several improvements in the port region, including new transport and housing schemes designed to make the city ready for its influx of thousands of visitors for the huge sporting event.
The new artwort is the biggest of its kind in Rio and was commissioned by Lojas Americanas and B2W, the two businesses which own the building on which the mural is being painted.

noun \ˈkər-liŋ\: a game in which two teams of four players slide special stones over ice toward a circle
Full Definition of CURLING
: a game in which two teams of four players each slide curling stones over a stretch of ice toward a target circle
First Known Use of CURLING
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Game in which two teams of four players each slide a round stone by means of a gooseneck handle on the top over a 138-ft (42-m) stretch of ice toward a target circle. The object is to deliver the stone closest to the centre (called the house). Each player delivers two stones, which average 40 lbs (18.1 kg) apiece, often applying a curl to the stone's trajectory. The player's teammates use a broom to sweep the ice ahead of the oncoming stone in order to facilitate a longer slide or to adjust the arc of the curl. Blocking and knocking out an opponent's stones are important strategies of the sport. Curling originated in Scotland in the early 16th century. World championships have been held since 1959 and are usually dominated by Canadians and Scandinavians. In 1998 curling became a medal sport in the Winter Olympic Games.

by Pawson, John
Publisher:Phaidon Press
Architect John Pawson delves into all aspects of minimalism in this compact (five-by-five-inch) but thick (325-page) format. Reading Minimum is almost like sitting in a slide lecture given by a passionate professor of pared-down design. It is a picture book primarily, and Pawson's choice of images is personal and quirky. His chapter headings refer to many sources and aspects of design: Mass, Light, Structure, Ritual, Landscape, Order, Containment, Repetition, Volume, Essence, and Expression. The pictures in each section range from sculptures and paintings to landscapes to ritual objects to rooms to colonnades and piazzas, cityscapes and private homes. Pawson's selections are evocative, but not always effective. One caption reads, "The intense luminescence of Mark Rothko's painting," but the picture shown is one of Rothko's late, dark, depressed canvasses, which at three-by-five-inches seems more a smudge than a glow. Images dominate this book, but Pawson has also written an ardent introductory essay that places his selections in context. "What I look for is the excitement of empty space," he writes. "It has the capacity to bring architecture alive, just as it does a Chinese scroll painting. Emptiness allows us to see space as it is, to see architecture as it is, preventing it from being corrupted, or hidden, by the incidental debris of the paraphernalia of everyday life. It offers the space, both psychological and physical, for contemplation, and the serenity that can encourage meditative quiet and calm, without the jarring distraction of possessions." --Peggy Moorman

Better wardrobe for KarolBagh team
This is a request for better wardrobe for the 12/24KarolBagh team especially Abhi,Simi,Anita,Neetu and Mili. Abhi is made to look like a 10 year old with cartoon T-shirts Simi has the dress sense of middle aged Delhi women Anita wears sarees in strange patterns. Neetu wears the same lehenga since she was married Mili wears a costume that cant be categorised. Going by characters in the show, we can say they have an aweful taste. Or if its the dress designers, its high time these people are given elegant and trendy costumes. Neil,Smriti,Devyani,Sargun and Hunar are good looking people who seems to be deliberately (with an extra effort) appeared to look aweful in dressing. Please redeem yourselves. Costumes play an important role in getting people to watch a show. This is a request please.

Sources: Smith, 2 Redskins fined by NFL
Atlanta Falcons head coach Mike Smith has been fined $15,000 for his part in Sunday's sideline melee involving his players and members of the Washington Redskins, including former Falcon DeAngelo Hall, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
"I want to reiterate that I'm always going to have my players' backs and I'm going to take care of them.
" -- Falcons coach Mike Smith
The near brawl in the second quarter of the Falcons' 31-17 victory amounted to four fines being doled out by the NFL's offices totaling $30,000.
Smith acknowledged that he was fined when he came off the field after a Falcons practice on Thursday, though he didn't discuss the amount.
"I received a letter from the NFL office this morning," he said. "I want to reiterate that I'm always going to have my players' backs and I'm going to take care of them."
Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth was fined $5,000 for coming to the aid of teammate Hall on Atlanta's sideline, a league source told Schefter.
Redskins safety LaRon Landry, who made a late hit on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan that sparked pushing and shoving on the sideline, was fined $7,500.
Hall was not fined for his role in an ensuing confrontation with Smith. Hall said after the game that Smith cursed at him and Falcons director of athletic performance Jeff Fish tried to "get some licks in" during the chaotic scene. Fish was fined $2,500.
"Just want to Thank the fans, my teammates and Organization for supporting me! Ive tried to keep my nose clean n play the game the right way," Hall wrote on his Twitter account. "Last weekends incident was unfortunate for everyone involved but the past is the past and I'm excited about getting back to FedEx Sunday!!"
Hall said on Sunday he was trying to pull Landry away from the sideline after Landry was called for his hit on Ryan. Hall and Landry immediately were surrounded by Falcons players and staff members.
Other Redskins players joined in, but much of the attention was on Hall, a former Falcon who had talked all week of being bitter at the way he was treated when traded after the 2007 season. He played in Atlanta for four years and made the Pro Bowl twice.
"I stay in Atlanta during the offseason, so if Mike Smith wants to see me, he can definitely find me," Hall said after the Falcons' victory.
Hall expressed dismay that more teammates did not come to his aid Sunday.
"I'm always ready to mix it up. And to see those guys kind of linger over there, yeah, I don't know what was going through their minds," Hall told Washington radio station 106.7 The Fan this week.
Player fines collected by the league are used to support the NFL Players Association's Players Assistance Trust as well as charitable initiatives supporting youth, education and sports-related medical research.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Thanks for taking this one, lots of comments but nothing profound
On 1/18/11 5:57 PM, Nate Hughes wrote:
Taiwan publicly tested nearly twenty air-to-air and surface-to-air
missiles Tuesday on the eve of Chinese President Hu Jintao's summit with
American President Barack Obama in Washington. Taiwanese President
President Ma Ying-jeou, who personally observed the rather overt
demonstration of military power (nearly a third of the missiles appear
to have failed to function properly in one way or another this belongs
below, see note), insisted that the timing of the test was unrelated to
Hu's arrival in the United States.
This is, of course, absurd. The spectrum of missiles tested in one day
in an event that appears to have been announced only the previous day
and attended by the President is obviously an act more political than
military in nature. Nor is it an isolated instance of regional rivals
acting out in opposition to China as Beijing and Washington work to
rekindle ties. In the last month, Indian media has insisted that China
is escalating a diplomatic row over visas, Japanese media asserted that
China is stepping away from its nuclear no-first-use policy and South
Korean media has insisted claimed that Chinese troops were deployed in
the Raison (sp?) area of North Korea South Korean media has claimed that
Chinese military trucks were spotted in North Korea and that the two
countries have discussed China deploying troops in the Rason area in
northeast North Korea. In each case, China has denied the charge and in
each case it was merely a story played up in the media, not an official
statement actually the South Korean Defense Min official said China-DPRK
'discussed' China deploying troops; and there may have been some
official statements on the India side. I don't think that's important -
more important just to say that in each case China rejected the claims
and not much more evidence has surfaced.
But these events are united by a common theme: significant concern about
the trajectory of U.S.-Chinese relations. The recent visit by U.S.
Secretary of Defense Robert Gates to China was primarily about the
resumption of direct military-to-military ties, but the two countries
have a whole host of larger issues between them: North Korea's recent
belligerence, sanctions against Iran, currency appreciation and a host
of economic issues trade and economic policy disputes. Beijing's
breaking off of military-to-military ties over a U.S. arms deal to
Taiwan has been set aside as the two giants attempt to reach some sort
of accommodation on issues beyond the region accommodation on bilateral
disagreements and their changing regional and global roles (would cut
the rest) - not to mention that both face profound challenges at home
and elsewhere abroad.
The U.S. is not about to abandon its allies in the region, but there is
a perceptible unease. The U.S. hesitance to dispatch an aircraft carrier
upon request by South Korea in the wake of <><the North Korean sinking
of the corvette ChonAn (772)>, resonated far beyond Seoul. Washington's
support of one of its closest allies was not unflinching and the
underlying reason for its hesitance was its concern about its
relationship with China. American allies fear that the more hesitant
that Washington is to challenge China in the region due to its own
national interest in other realms, the more limited and flinching
American support will be as China continues to rise in the region - be
it physical aggressiveness in the South China Sea or more assertive
policies would say in peripheral seas (to include East China and even
Yellow)... In this para, needs to be clear that the US more than
accommodated South Korea after the yeonpyeong shelling, not only did it
deploy carrier to yellow sea, but ended up putting three carriers in
region, held several exercises with the ROK, and also made statement
with ROK and Japan showing unified front. So in great part, the US has
'recovered' from the initial response to Chonan. Then you can go into
the final two paras, which really nicely wrap this up.
The issues between Washington and Beijing are profound. And Hu's summit
with Obama is hardly going to result in some grand rapprochement between
the two, formal state dinner at the White House nonwithstanding great
line. But the recent freeze in relations appears to be thawing i
wouldn't say this, i would just say the two are continuing to find ways
to cooperate and prevent tensions from spiraling out of control or
causing a unbridgeable rift, and like America's many allies in the past,
there is a wariness of American national interests (in this case of the
rising prominence and importance of good relations with China) diverging
from those of its allies be sure writers untangle this sentence.
The American network of allies in the western Pacific remains central to
U.S. grand strategy in the region. But for South Korea, it was a delay
in dispatching a carrier to send a signal. For the Taiwanese, it may be
a hesitance to not sell more and more advanced weapons. As U.S.-Chinese
relations thaw, American allies will be wondering what's next.

Pride 2014: Video of the Vancouver parade
YouTube features a few videos posted by people at today's Vancouver Pride parade.
The best one that I've seen so far was put on the video-sharing site by Keith Suriani. Check it out above.
Below is another video, this one featuring a float of the Last Door Recovery Society.
They were celebrating Pride with sobriety, demonstrating that you don't have to get plastered to have some fun.

This week's Fossil Friday is Specimen BOU-VP-2/66. The Daka Calvaria, a million year old Homo erectus skullcap discovered in 1997 by Leakey Foundation grantee Henry Gilbert, who was a Ph.D candidate at the University of California, Berkeley at the time of the discovery. The fossil was discovered in the Middle Awash region of the Afar Rift in eastern Ethiopia, which has been the source of many fossil human ancestors, ranging from half a million years old to more than 6 million years old.
We chose the Daka Calvaria for this week's Fossil Friday because if you're in the San Francisco area, you can learn about this discovery from Henry Gilbert himself. "Whatever Happened to Homo Erectus?" is a free event being held on Wednesday, August 20 at SoMA StrEat Food Park.
This isn't a Leakey Foundation event, it's produced by Wonderfest in collaboration with Ask A Scientist, and it sounds like a good time. Science and food trucks seems like a winning combination.
You can see a calendar of upcoming Leakey Foundation events on our Speaker Series page.

This is not just about my spirit. It's about every soul who keep on struggle to reaching the dream..
We know that everyone have a dream , there are various dreams on their head to overcome , including me. But not everybody wanted to pursue his dream, because pessimistic , lazy or not believe with ability in their self... i don't know for sure. There's nothing wrong with dreaming, the wrong is if we keep on dreaming without doing something to grab it, you know that.
A lot of pressure or obstruction which obstruct us in reaching for a dream,, money, haters, insult, or even our self etc. It's all our choices, we must keep walking and struggling or stop and doing nothing. You deserve to reach your dream come true. Find your own happiness,,Cheeers!

None of you told us about them. None of you told us ahead of time. In fact, no one heard you say anything at all. | 26 Who told of this from the beginning, so we could know, or beforehand, so we could say, 'He was right'? No one told of this, no one foretold it, no one heard any words from you. |

Very central from Mark Francis 24/Apr/2013 (period of stay: April 2013)
I found this appt to be very satisfactory considering the size of it. The location is fantastic, right in the center of Madrid and beside all the bars and restaurants. It is a bit in the small size for 4 adults but def satisfactory. The owner Eva is a wonderful woman and always replies to emails , txt etc straight away. The only item i would add to the kitchen is a kettle for UK and Irish visitors as there is none provided and we love out tea ha ha. Def will visit again.

Event Name
- OR - Select an option belowIt's easy to get disoriented at McCabe's Irish Pub, and the bar's sprawling, two-story layout is only partly responsible for that effect. The painstaking attention paid to Irish authenticity in McCabe's food and drink menu is what's truly dizzying. From delectable dishes like shepherd's pie and fish and chips to hard-to-find brews like Kilkenny Cream Stout, the menu shoots for Gaelic purity at every level. Beyond the menu, McCabe's owners have worked hard to distinguish the bar's ambience from its setting in the Southlands shopping mall. With hardwood bars on both levels and massive portraits of Irish literary giants like Wilde and Yeats keeping watch over the bar's booths, it's easy to feel transported. What's more, with the proximity of Buckley Air Force Base, the bar draws a rich variety of regulars, including British ex-pats looking for a taste of home.

Eleven Years Later, the Worst Episode of 'Sex and the City' Still Enrages
Features By Kate Erbland on June 21, 2013 | Comments (11)Though it ended its television run nearly a decade ago, HBO's Sex and the City still remains the gold standard in female-driven ensemble sex-coms (just imagine the Hollywood pitches that include the line "It's like Sex and the City, but in [fill in city here]!") and, for better or worse, the series is still relevant to television today. Hell, the Sex and the City tour business is still booming in New York City, complete with cupcakes and cosmos. While I wasn't a first-run fan of SATC and, though I knew plenty of people (mostly women) who thought it represented some sort of canonistic experience for gals of a certain age in a certain type of city, I never felt that way. SATC may have felt like aspirational entertainment to some – even now, living in New York City in a lovely apartment that actually has bedrooms, I still think Carrie's studio is awesome – but it doesn't even remotely present a realistic view on life in the big city (especially New York City). Nevertheless, SATC is a constant source of background television viewing for me, along with Friends and Seinfeld, and it continues to play out in syndicated form across a number of different television channels. What I'm saying is, the show is still on a lot, and it's often on a lot within my viewing range. I've seen every episode of SATC by now – and multiple times – and I have even endured both of the feature films […]

At Sandstone Elementary in the Heights on Wednesday, students in Ryan Groshans' third-grade class jumped from classroom instruction to iPad activity and back again as they learned to convert fractions.
When Groshans' 9-year-old student, Jude Becker, logged back into an application called IXL that helps students learn math skills, he was excited to find he had already racked up five gold medals for successfully completing activities.
"Oh my gosh, I'm already done with that! Look at me, dude," Jude said.
His fellow students busily completed activities so they could match his medal count.
Groshans said he turned to technology to reinforce concepts he teaches in his class.
"You're going to get kids that get bored with you just teaching a lesson," he said. "Kids love anything they can do with their hands."
Technology in the classroom can be a useful tool, but it's not cheap. Seven iPads and cases cost Groshans $2,500.
To get enough for half of his classroom to use, Groshans applied for a "Thank a Million Teachers" grant through Farmers Insurance.
Ten teachers in Montana -- five in the Billings area -- received $2,500 for their classrooms after submitting short proposals that were voted on by the public.
The program attracted 172 proposals from Montana teachers, and more than 56,000 people voted.
Ten teachers in Nevada also received $2,500 grants.
Farmers Insurance planned to launch its "Thank a Million Teachers" program nationwide, but decided to start on a smaller scale in Montana and Nevada first.
"They decided they needed a pilot program to work the kinks out," said Kimberly Cummins, president of Farmers Insurance agency operations in Montana.
The "Thank a Million Teachers" program will roll out nationally in 2014. About $500,000 in grants will be distributed to the winners, Cummins said.
Trinity Lutheran School first-grade teacher, Lynne Erger, was awarded $2,500 and purchased iPads for her class.
The class only had one iPad previously. Students used it once a week for independent exercises. With seven more, the students use them almost every day.
"It's so hands-on and immediate," Erger said.
With more iPads, they can be working on exercises reinforcing lessons while she helps others that need extra instruction.
"While I'm working with other kids," she said, "They can be working with the iPads."

Roma, also known as Fellini's Roma, is a 1972 semi-autobiographical, poetic comedy-drama film depicting director Federico Fellini's move from his native Rimini to Rome as a youth. It is formed by a series of loosely connected episodes. The plot is minimal, and the only character to develop significantly is Rome herself. Peter Gonzales plays the young Fellini, and the film features mainly unknowns in the cast.

Speaking across continents
Terri Easley, associate professor, speech and debate, didn't expect her recent visit to Russia would involve multiple lectures on American weddings, but hey, it's enthralled her mostly-female audience.
She visited Udmurt State University in Izhevsk, Russia to plan for JCCC's newest offering to the sister school: Intercultural Communications (SPD 180).
Easley, unmarried but long on bridesmaid experience, said she gave lectures about speech, debate and graduation, but her most popular lecture was on the production of an American wedding.
"They found out I was a bridesmaid in four weddings last year. They were fascinated by American weddings, so I gave about 15 lectures about them," she said, using wedding photos from her laptop as visual aids. "I have been in so many weddings, I am almost like that girl from 27 Dresses."
In Russia, Easley said, weddings are more sedate and lack the more theatrical elements of an American ceremony, such as matching bridesmaid dresses, formal attire and over-the-top decorations.
These differences only highlighted the root similarities between American and Russian students. "You think it's an entirely different country, so students will be entirely different. But they really aren't all that different. Of all the things I did while I was there, I enjoyed working with the students the most."
Intercultural Communications was first offered as an online class for both JCCC and Udmurt State students for the spring semester of 2013, but the Udmurt State/JCCC partnership began in 1993. It originally (and quite obviously) concentrated on the English language.
English teachers from Udmurt State have visited JCCC, and English teachers from JCCC also have visited the Russian college. This is the first speech class to be offered through the exchange.
"I think it's really nice when we have more partnerships," Easley said. "It just opens up so many more possibilities."

How do your hydrangeas do here in the Denver metro area? I've got one, just starting some growth at the base, which I put in last year. I don't think it got enough sun, but do they do ok here? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I haven't grown one but have friends that live in SW Denver and they have a beautiful one that blooms every year. it's white and they got it from family in Iowa. They transplanted it when they moved and it's done great. Good luck with yours. Theirs is on the east side of their house. |
- Posted by kelly_green z4 CO (My Page) on Mon, May 9, 11 at 18:27
I have three huge white ones that do great for me. They are on the north and east sides of the house and get morning sun only. I actually tried to get rid of #3 several years ago - dug to China! - and it was back the next year huger than ever. Pretty unkillable in my experience. Best of luck with yours. |
There are a lot of different hydrangea cultivars, some of which will not hold up to the aridity, rapid temperature fluctuations, and the wind. So I'd get them from a local nursery, not just choosing one from a catalog and mail-ordered from some nursery in Georgia, or a big box store. |
- Posted by tommysmommy Colorado (My Page) on Tue, May 10, 11 at 9:09
Mine came from Echter's Nursery, it's supposed to be pink or blue depending on soil acidity. I think the white ones do better here personally. This is the type I grew up with back east. |
I thought hydrangeas liked acidic soil, which a lot of us do not have here in CO. Did you amend the soil? |
- Posted by tommysmommy Colorado (My Page) on Wed, May 11, 11 at 11:07
Hoping to get something this year out of it. It gets about half day sun, but it's the hot afternoon part, which it may not like. I'd love the blue, but I know about the ph factor. Mom had the blue and it's so nostalgic for me to see them. Well, we'll see, won't we! At least it lived through the dry winter, that's encouraging. |
I was told quite awhile ago to get the Annabelle Hydrangea for Colorado, which I did. We recently moved and I dug out some starts prior to putting the house on the market (since they can be hard to find and expensive). Do to time constraints, I literally stuffed them in the unamended clay soil and they came up the next year fine. Get the Annabelle and you'll be rewarded with flowers galore. |
- Posted by summergardens none (My Page) on Mon, Jun 16, 14 at 9:57
I have just planted 4 Annabelle's in a shady spot next to the house. 3 have bloom areas, the 4th does not. Does anyone know whether some plants do not bloom and if it's a pollination issue. The plant looks healthy oath wise and I am hoping may develop blooms later. |

Addressing essential questions of women's movement activism and political change in Western democracies
The Politics of State FeminismInnovation in Comparative ResearchDorothy E. McBride and Amy G. Mazurpaper EAN: 978-1-43990-208-0 (ISBN: 1-4399-0208-9) |
"This provocative book is the definitive treatment of state feminism. The authors offer systematic explorations of cutting-edge themes in comparative politics, policy, and gender and politics. Their scholarship here is exemplary. The Politics of State Feminism is a gold mine of insights into the relationships between women's movements and the state, and it will be the book that scholars consult to learn about the development and political significance of the proliferation of women's policy machineries in advanced industrialized countries."
Laurel Weldon, Professor of Political Science at Purdue University and author of Protest, Policy, and the Problem of Violence against Women: A Cross-National Comparison
The Politics of State Feminism addresses essential questions of women's movement activism and political change in Western democracies. The authors—top gender and politics scholars—provide a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of women's policy agencies and women's movements on a range of important issues to show whether, how, and why they form state feminism.
The central research questions are examined across five policy areas in thirteen postindustrial democracies in Europe and North America from the 1960s through the early 2000s. The authors explore topics drawn from contemporary theory on movements, representation, and the place of institutions in democratic change.
Beginning with the rich studies of policy debates by the Research Network on Gender Politics and the State, the authors use an innovative qualitative and quantitative strategy to develop a new body of theory about the role of state feminism and how it can help further women's rights.
Excerpt available at www.temple.edu/tempress
"The Politics of State Feminism is a comprehensive book—the capstone of an ambitious, long-term, international, collaborative project. Feminist without reservation, the authors address a range of interconnected and interesting literatures, and their conclusions are thoughtful and timely. Very few comparative projects combine this breadth and depth."
Charles Ragin, Professor of Sociology and Political Science at the University of Arizona and author of Redesigning Social Inquiry: Fuzzy Sets and Beyond
"The book is sure to be a classic for scholars focused on advanced research on women, gender, institutions, and politics, and for those studying women's policy apparatus in government as it connects with women's movements in the majority of nations (i.e., in the non-Western world). Summing Up: Highly recommended."
"[A] long awaited culmination of a 15- year-long international collaborative project on comparative state feminism which was initiated by two prominent feminist political scientists.... This book is a celebrated finale of this collective odyssey that addresses essential questions of women's movement activism and political change in Western democracies through a comprehensive comparative analysis of the effectiveness of women's policy agencies and women's movements on a range of important policy issues. The book presents a unique combination of conceptual sophistication, first-hand original data, wide-ranging review of interconnected literatures, methodological rigor, and thought-provoking theoretical conclusions. This book will be widely read by scholars and students interested in gender politics, institutional and policy change, social movements, and democratization.... The study's conclusions are very important and timely."
The Journal of Politics
"This is a densely packed and comprehensive book, explaining the long-standing and widely recognized state feminism project and offering a more rigorous, empirical version of its findings. It explains empirical testing of comparative hypotheses and contributes to broader social science debates."
Journal of Women, Politics and Policy
"Superb.... This exhaustive and nuanced scholarship is what allowed for both the identification and testing of the fundamental research question found in this capstone book."
Perspectives on Politics
"This is the capstone book of a large-scale, even hugely ambitious, project led by the authors, which has compared 'state feminism' (women's policy agencies) in 13 countries.... this book is extremely welcome.... it provides a toolkit for those researching the policy influence of women's movements."

I am leaning towards the colour pop though, I think the coolness matches the car a bit better.

Not kitchen related, but you guys are so good at finding things. I have this Oakwood Interiors oakcrest vanity, but I do not have the bench/seat. My bedroom set is this oak, so I really want the same seat. I've searched the internet for about a year since I bought the vanity and can't find anything remotely close. Oak frame and legs and I would love the tapestry seat, but if not tapestry, my bedroom is all blue and white. Any help finding this would be greatly appreciated! |

Kam Li
Episode Reviews (3)
An Old US Army solider goes missing and some secrets are reveled during the investigation. Martin and Jack go to Wasington and run into troubles of there own.
This episode was very well writing and very well acted by the cast. We finally get to meet Martin's dad who I did not like very well but I guess that means that the actor was doing a good job. One of the only things I did not like was that Jack took Martin to Washington, when he probably knew that Martin would feel very uncomfortable, and he did I mean do what your dad tells you or your boss, especially when your dad is the Deputy Director of the FBI. In the end I think Martin made a good choice sticking up for Jack and basically telling his dad off, and telling Jack that he thought it was done right. All in all I think that this was a very good lead in episode to Are You Know or Have You Ever Been.moreless
More about truth than missing guy..
A missing retiring military officer.. and more they try to figure out what was going on, it becomes clear it all had to do with Kam Li, a village in Vietnam where something happened.. And most of the episode goes around it.. about the way the military works, how those war buddies cover up to each other or go down by themselves rather to accept the truth. So, I think it can be a good episode if you like that kind of stuff, but if you expected something fast, cleverly plotted and dangerous.. then this episode wasn't that.. it had rather slow motion.. and it was clear from the beginning that something was covered up.. What, was also quite sure.. the only question was why..moreless
Very sad......................
Well, this episode was very good in my opinion. Mix a little Vietnam with a dash of secrets and Jack, what do you got, one awsome episode! I don't think Bull should of died like that, and at the hands of his old platoon? Shame, shame, shame. I liked Jack talking about his time in the Service, makes him seem a little more All-American, you know? And sexy! And Victor Fitzgerald reappears again to bug his son, someone should shut him up. I thought the history used in this ep, it was all extremely accurate, I mean for a tv show, bravo writers!moreless

Celebration of Writing with Murphy Writers Group
The Murphy Writers Group will be hosting a celebration of writing on Sat, Dec 8th at 2pm in the 2nd Floor Meeting Room at the Main Library, 915 Monroe Street, Huntsville, AL 35801. The event will include guest speakers, readings by members of the writing group, and a progressive story.
Light refreshments will be served. Admission is free.
Guest speakers are Dr. Monita Soni and "Steve" Gierhart.
Speaker Biographies:
- Dr. Monita Soni is a pathologist and diagnoses cancer in her day job. Reading and writing poetry is a passion that splashes her literally with a sparkling abundance. She is inspired by great twentieth century poets (Robert Frost, Keats, Browning and Tagore) and ancient Sufi poet like Hafiz, Rumi and Faiz. Her writing style weaves eastern and western cultures and creates organic rhythms. You can hear her commentaries on WLRH Sundial Writer's corner.
Her first book of poems " My Light Reflections" is well received in the literary community.
- "Steve" Gierhart is a retired business manager for the United States Army. Based in Huntsville, Alabama on Redstone Arsenal, his career lasted from 1975 to 2010 in which he managed contracts, finances/accounting, and cost estimating for several missile defense systems, among which were Stinger, Avenger, Chaparral, Sentinel, JLENS, SLAMRAAM, and Non-Line of Sight.
He hails from Shawnee, Oklahoma; but most of his adult life has been spent in the beautiful hills of North Alabama where he lives with his wife, Bonny, who raises Tennessee Walking Horses.
Between them, Steve and Bonny have 5 children and 7 grandchildren and another on the way.
Steve, the author of Shadow of The Conjurer and editor/publisher for The Ardent Writer Press, enjoys writing now that he is retired and plans more excursions of the imagination as well as supporting charitable organizations promoting reading and writing, such as The Huntsville Literary Association and The Alabama Writers' Forum .
He and Bonny, a retired engineer who worked as a contractor on several NASA and Army programs, will travel in their retirement though 15 horses, 4 dogs and 3 cats can crimp the best of plans.
The Murphy Writers Group, representing many different stages and genres of writing, meets on the second and fourth Saturday of each month at 3 p.m. at the Eleanor E. Murphy Library, 7910 Charlotte Drive SW, Huntsville, AL 35802. Members of the group are given the opportunity to read to their peers and receive positive and helpful feedback.
