Payment Options For All Networks!
Our Networks offer Multiple Payment Options for your convenience. Please note that some options have minimum commission requirements, and some have payment time restrictions (once a week, twice a week, etc…) Here are the Payment Options available for all of our networks:
PayPal Payments (no minimum, daily payouts)
With this option, your commission goes directly into your verified PayPal account. Payment frequency is daily, sometimes more often when able. The advantage of this option is that payments are immediately available to you from your verified PayPal account. Also, PayPal has available PayPal debit cards for verified members of at least 90 days. For more information on PayPal and to create your own account with them, visit www.paypal.com
Payment by Company Check (no minimum, daily payouts)
This option is one of our best options, if you do not have a PayPal or AlertPay account. When you place your order by Company Check, the check goes out the next business day, and will arrive in just a couple of days. There is no minimum payout requirements! Also, they are sent First Class mail, so you do not have to sit at home and wait for them to sign for them. However, it is VITAL that all the information in your account is absolutely accurate. Your name, address, etc… must be correct for them to arrive promptly, and so that you do not have issues depositing them. This is ENTIRELY YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. Also, all checks are monitored closely so that when they are cashed or deposited, there is no recourse on your part to say "I didn't receive my check!".
Payment by Direct Deposit (no minimum, daily payout)
When you have reached a point where you are doing well, and making good commission, this option may be for you. This allows a completely "hands off" approach to getting your commission, as your payments are sent directly to your bank account when you place your order. This option must be "arranged", and takes 5 to 7 days to verify and approve your deposit account for Direct Deposit. If you are interested in using Direct Deposit you must contact us by support ticket or email to receive an "authorization form" that must include your account information from your bank account. Once you have been approved for Direct Deposit, your payments will then be sent directly to your account via Automated Clearing House. (ACH) Your payments will then show up the next business day, right in your account!
Payment by Money Order ($100 minimum, weekly payouts)
With this option, you are able to get your commission by US Postal Service Money Orders. This is a great option if you do not have a bank account, or a PayPal account. You are able to cash your payment right at the post office (with appropriate ID), or deposit them how you see fit. The disadvantage of this option is that there is a $100 minimum on them, and payments go out once a week on Wednesday. Also, all money orders are sent "Certified", and you will be required to present ID and sign for them when they come to your house, or pick them up at the post office. The first time you request a money order, you will be asked to verify all of your account information, so that the money order arrives at the correct address, and that your name is correct on the ID that must be presented when signing for them.
Welcome to My Cash Paradise!
This is our home site for The Paradise Freebies Network, The Free Treasure Chest Network, and The My Cash Freebies Network. We are constantly striving on all of our networks for excellence in Customer Service and Customer Care, and to bring you some of the best offer credit weights available in the industry.
On this home site, you will be able to find the latest on these three awesome freebie networks, along with contact information, promotions, just about anything you need to know about us. You will also find excellent information on how to complete offers, browser set-up, and other information that will allow you to green easily on our network sites.
Each of our networks has it's own areas in the main menu on the right sidebar. Promotions for our networks can be found under "Network Promotions", so if you are looking for our latest promotions, you will find them there. They will also be linked directly from our sites, as well as from the trading forums.
There will be times when promotions will not be listed here on our home site, such as referral races and forum specific promotions such as proof post promotions. Please take a look on your favorite forum at our sub-forums, so that you can stay informed on the latest promotions available to you!
What We Are
Paradise Freebies, Free Treasure Chest, and My Cash Freebies are known as "IFW" (Incentive Freebie Websites). We provide Free Gifts, Free Prizes, Free Merchandise, and Free Cash (through PayPal Gifts) to people who refer others to our networks to try trial offers and direct purchase offers. These offers are provided to us by advertisers who wish to market their products and services to the public. Through this relationship, we are able to provide your referrals with some of the hottest new product and service trials available anywhere!
What We Are NOT
We are NOT direct cash or "GPT" (Get Paid To) networks. We are strictly referral based, which means that you must be referred to the sites, and compensated through the person who referred you. There are a great number of ways to get referred to our sites, but the most common is through a trading forum. For more information on trading forums, go to the "Forums" section in the Main Menu.
If you are already trading freebie sites, we occasionally have available "Free Greens" on our networks (by promotion only), so that you can immediately add us to your trade threads and start sending referrals of your own to the sites. So you completely understand… If you sign up on our network sites un-referred and complete offers, we will not pay you, but you will reach your offer requirements and be able to send referrals afterward. You must be a referral of another person, and that person is responsible for paying you as their referral.
Offer Requirements
All of our sites have "Offer Requirements". This is the amount of offer credit that is required for you to reach the minimum offers needed to complete the site, and be able to start sending referrals to them yourself. All of our networks provide a wide variety of sites with different offer requirements. They range from only one offer to complete the site, two offer sites, One-Credit sites, and Two-Credit sites. On the "Credit" sites, each offer has a "credit value" which is just a decimal number. The goal on a "One-Credit" site is to add up the offer credit values to equal one. The credit values range through the whole spectrum of decimal values, for example: .05, .25, .50, etc… So on a "One-Credit" site, you would have to complete two ".50″ offers to reach the offer requirements on that site. This is the same with the "Two-Credit" sites.

Buddy Valastro's Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
"I wanted to celebrate the actual magazines," says Buddy Valastro, star of TLC's reality show Cake Boss, when asked about his cake, a trompe l'oeil tower of his favorite issues of O, The Oprah Magazine. "I wanted the cake to be whimsical, so I stacked the cake issues at an offset angle," says Valastro, a fourth-generation baker from Hoboken, New Jersey. "The result is crazy and fun." It's also delicious layers of red velvet cake with classic cream cheese frosting, a beloved combination that appealed to everyone on staff who tasted it.
This cake is one of 10 sweet creations in celebration of O, The Oprah Magazine's 10th birthday. Use this recipe to make an at-home version to enjoy.

Top 10 Foods for Stress Relief
by Dana Angelo White in Healthy Tips, April 15, 2010Eat your way to a more relaxed state — and no, we don't mean pigging out on high-calorie junk food. While there isn't a cure-all food to magically erase frustration, you can get some stress relief with a combo of exercising, eating small meals throughout the day and getting more of these 10 fresh goodies.
1. Whole-Wheat Pretzels
Eating carbohydrate-rich foods gives you an energy boost and triggers the brain to release a feel-good chemical called serotonin. Opting for a whole-grain snack (cereals, pretzels, bread, crackers, etc.) provides extra fiber, too.
2. Carrots
Munching on crunchy foods also helps beat stress. Nutrient-rich carrots, celery and other crunchy, fresh veggies offer satisfying crispness but won't bog you down with too many calories.
3. Tea
Calm frazzled nerves with a steaming cup of your favorite tea blend. The soothing warmth and tea's plant compounds work together to level off your body's response to stress. Both herbal and black tea can help.
4. Nuts
Stress runs you down, which leaves you open to sickness. Almonds, pistachios and walnuts are high in the antioxidant vitamin E and zinc — both good for boosting your immune system. Bonus: Those nuts are good sources of B-vitamins, which help the body manage stress, too. Since nuts are high in (healthy) fat, stick to a 1/4-cup portions.
5. Swiss Chard
Swiss chard and other leafy veggies like spinach are full of magnesium (a single cup covers 40% of your daily need); getting more magnesium can help control and limit your body's release of the stress-spiking hormone cortisol. Science stuff aside, wilted greens are a delicious addition to soups, pasta and rice dishes or taste great just sautéed with olive oil and garlic.
6. Yogurt
Work more calcium into your diet with non-fat or low-fat yogurt — a sprinkle of nuts and some fresh fruit will turn it into an ultra-satisfying snack. The good-for-you part: Yogurt contains probiotics that help create a healthy and calm digestive system.
7. Chocolate
Chocolate lovers know that just a taste can cure all that ails them and there's science to back it up. Research indicates that dark chocolate may lower levels of stress hormones. Chocolate also contains sugar (a carbohydrate), so it releases mood-improving serotonin. It's alright to indulge; just keep the portions in check — shoot for one-ounce servings.
Read more about the health benefits of chocolate.
8. Milk
Have a glass to get more B-vitamins, protein, vitamin D and bone-building calcium to relieve tense muscles. Stick to the low-fat (1%) or skim varieties. If you prefer it with more flavor, have some with whole-grain cereal in the morning or sip on some chocolate milk around bedtime to bring on more restful sleep.
9. Banana and Avocado
That's two things, we know, but what do these fruits have in common? They're loaded with potassium, a vital mineral for keeping blood pressure low. Add sliced banana to your morning oatmeal or a half-cup of sliced avocado to a lunchtime salad or sandwich. That will cover your potassium needs for the day.
10. Fatty Fish
The heart-healthy omega-3 fats in fish such as salmon, sardines and tuna manage adrenaline levels to help keep you calm, cool and collected. They're also good for just about every part of your body, including the eyes, skin and hair.
Read more about picking safe, sustainable fish.

which foods support healty kidneys?
Hi Mel – Proper hydration and a general healthy diet of fruits, veggies, lean protein, whole grains and healthy fats is ideal for the kidneys (and the other organs too). Those with kidney problems should work with a registered dietitian to create a plan for their specific needs.
I usually have eggs, fruit, yogurt and a small amount of coffee in the morning. It starts me right-up and keeps me going through mid-morning. Sometimes a piece of bread, whole grain, toasted,with a little butter, and I'm set through the morning!
Carrot and milk are my favorite from other eight. Carrots are rich in vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and potassium. It is not only beat stress but also reduced cholesterol, prevention from heart attacks while Milk contains almost all nutrients except for iron and vitamin C.
I find it therapeutic to make coleslaw. Must be all that chopping!
of course like your web site but you have to check the spelling on several of your posts. Many of them are rife with spelling issues and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth nevertheless Ill definitely come back again
This is a very interesting and informative article. I rather do it in more planned way, you know sorting out the food best recommended for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I chip in with almonds early in the day, have tuna for lunch and preferably fatty fish for dinner. Here's my personal post on it – http://www.likelitelife.in/2012/03/how-to-plan-di…
What a load of non-sense. My five year old can call himself a nutritionist and it would not be against the law. Nutritional studies are mostly not worth the effort needed to read them and can be pulled apart by anyone with a proper understanding of a correct approach to conducting a scientific trial.
I drink my cereal milk
Heiii waht do you think about egg. you can add maore egg for health
WOw.. that is look very delicious. I like the cake and it's seems very tasty if you add more butter

One of Hollywood's best-known boxers is coming to the Broadway stage in February 2014, when Rocky the Musical opens at the Winter Garden Theatre. (The Winter Garden is currently occupied by Mamma Mia!, which recently announced its impending transfer to the Broadhurst Theatre.)
Rocky the Musical features a distinguished creative team. The score was written by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, the pair responsible for beloved scores to musicals such as Ragtime and Once On This Island. The show's book has been penned by Thomas Meehan, who wrote the books to such musicals as Hairspray and Annie.
Sylvester Stallone himself, who wrote and starred in the Oscar-winning movie Rocky, serves as a producer on the musical. "I couldn't be more proud or more excited about this production and how my original story of Rocky Balboa has been brought to spectacular life onstage," stated Stallone, recognizing that the musical's team has made the story "as exciting, heart-breaking, and inspiring as it was when Rocky first went the distance on screen."

WASHINGTON — A quote carved in stone on the new Martin Luther King Jr. memorial in Washington will be changed after the inscription was criticized for not accurately reflecting the civil rights leader's words.
The inscription currently reads: "I was a drum major for justice, peace and righteousness." The phrase is chiseled into one side of a massive block of granite that includes King's likeness emerging from the stone. It became a point of controversy after the memorial opened in August.

How to install Ubuntu on Nexus 7 [Guide]
Posted By Derrik On September 2, 2013 @ 9:06 AM In Android,Linux | 2 Comments
[1]Love the Nexus 7 but not so interested in how limited Android can sometimes be? If so, you're in luck. This guide will teach you how to install Ubuntu 13.04 directly onto your Nexus 7. After following this guide, you'll have the power of Ubuntu on your tablet. Let's get started.
Disclaimer: This guide is intended as a helpful "how to". dotTech and its writers are not responsible for any gain or loss (including but not limited to bricked devices) incurred as a result of following this guide. Installing Ubuntu on your Nexus 7 is an unofficial process and, while it works if done correctly, contains certain risks, such as loss of data or bricked devices. Proceed at your own risk.
Make sure you have your Nexus 7's microUSB cable nearby.
The bootloader MUST be unlocked. If you have a 2012 Nexus 7, refer to dotTech's root guide of the 2012 Nexus 7 [2], find the section that talks about unlocking the bootloader. Once you've unlocked the bootloader, come back to this guide. If you have a 2013 Nexus 7, refer to the 2013 Nexus 7 root guide [3].
This guide is specifically for installing Ubuntu 13.04 on Nexus 7. It may or may work for later versions of Ubuntu. At the time of this writing, Ubuntu 13.04 is the latest version of Ubuntu.
Installing Ubuntu 13.04 to the Nexus 7 can only be done on a Ubuntu computer. Download and install the latest version of Ubuntu Linux to your Windows or Mac (if you are not already running it). You can download the latest version of Ubuntu by visiting this link [4]. Be sure that you are downloading the latest version, and not long term support. The installer is very painless and easy to understand if you are technically savvy. Download the ISO of Ubuntu and burn it to a CD or DVD. If you do not want to burn a disc, there are several utilities that will make Ubuntu bootable on a flash drive. You can find the USB tool you need by visiting this link [5].
In order to flash Ubuntu to the Nexus 7, you'll need to download and install Ubuntu Nexus 7 Desktop Installer on your computer. Do this by opening your terminal and entering the commands below.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-nexus7/ubuntu-nexus7-installer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-nexus7-installer
sudo apt-get install android-tools
Restoring Android To 2012 Nexus 7
wget https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/nakasi-jzo54k-factory-973f190e.tgz&& tar zxvf
cd nakasi-jzo54k
sudo ./flash-all.sh
Restoring Android To 2013 Nexus 7
wget https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/razor-jss15q-factory-4f77b811.tgz&& tar zxvf
cd razor-jss15q
sudo ./flash-all.sh
After starting flash-all.sh, the script will flash Android 4.3 to your 2013 Nexus 7. The script may take some time. When it is finished executing, reboot your Nexus 7.
Android is a great operating system for mobile devices — but it's very limiting. Android isn't too great for power users, at least compared to Ubuntu. Now that you've learned how to install Ubuntu to your tablet, the possibilities are endless. Tons of desktop Linux applications are now at your fingertips. You can even play steam games on your tablet if you choose to. Have fun!

There I sat on Easter Sunday this year trying to quietly enjoy watching The Masters Tournament, but I was continuously plagued by the sounds of "Nice Shot!" and "Chance for Birdie." No they weren't coming from the TV but from my roommate's iPhone. At first glance I thought the game appeared cheesy and overly simplified, but he wanted to play me in the wi-fi multiplayer mode so badly that he gave me the $6.00 to buy it. As it turns out, it was so fun that I actually gave him the money back…ok, thats not true, I'm too broke for that, but I did consider it.
Put simply, it's golf, you pick a player, pick a course, choose how many holes, and you swing away, what more do you need?
The game has 4 basic modes, Instant Play (which is similar to a random 3 hole arcade mode), Multiplayer (can be played on the same phone or wi-fi with another phone), Tournament (where you play against 4 other computers to unlock new courses and players), and Free Hole (open arcade mode where you can play any course on any difficulty). So is the overall concept anything absolutely ground breaking? No, but it doesn't have to be, it's solid and classic.
Graphics & Sound
The 3D graphics in this game lean more to the Nintendo cartoony feel rather then real world graphics and animations, which, for this game, works perfectly. The designers focused more on overall look, i.e. birds flying in the sky and balls leaving trails in the sky instead of seeing sweat drip off of the players after a swing.
The sound on the other hand could use some work. The music and catch phrases used throughout the game become boring and overdone after several rounds of golf. It's not so much to the point of annoyance but definitely to the point of boredom which would be easily fixed through a couple more songs and sayings thrown into the mix. One of the only major flaws I found in this game is that the sound controls are completely independent of the overall phone sound settings, meaning that even if you have the phone set to silent/vibrate that once the game is started and the opening video comes on, the sound will still be playing at the same level you left it when you were last playing the game. May not seem like a big deal at first, but don't try to sneak in a quick round on the back 9 during the middle of a meeting or class as you might suddenly find your boss asking you why your phone is whistling… awkward!
One problem I have though is that the game has a higher tendency than most games to crash from time to time. I personally recommend quitting and restarting it after each round to reduce lagging. Fortunately the game developers foresaw app crashes as a possibility and built in an auto save feature that saves up to the last swing of each mode (not including multiplayer wifi) to avoid needing to start whole rounds all over. Lagging can also affect your swings, so don't try to guess when the lag will jump just let the energy bar go up and down until the lag vanishes, then swing.
So once you get past these issues, how's the game play? Fun! You get two modes to swing the club, either casual or advanced. Casual is a classic tap the filled energy bar method while advanced bases swings on the speed and amount you drag your finger across the screen. I prefer the casual myself for the fun aspect but advanced definitely adds additional challenges to the game. Once hit, you can also add spin to the ball in the air with a simple finger swipe. Wind speed & direction, terrain hazards, which club you use, and the speeds of greens all affect your shots. Tournament mode is very much achievement based, in that over time your able to unlock all 4 courses, 4 players, and 3 difficulty levels. Each player has their own attributes to best fit your playing style… I definitely recommend going for accuracy over power. My one real complaint about the single player gameplay is that after a while it gets too easy to win because the game lets you restart each hole independently in a round. Although this can be a valuable setting if a lag causes you to have a bad shot, I feel like this is almost a form of cheating. If you're bad at putting you should pay for it and not get to just start over. At the very least I think this feature should be removed from the Hard difficulty.
In the end, the game always keeps you pushing your best score because while it's very possible to get birdies and eagles on each hole, its certainly not a guarantee.
Lasting Appeal
While this game may not be one you want to play for several hours at a time I see it as always being one you may whip out for a few holes or even challenge your friends at. In addition knowing that 3.0 will allow developers to add level upgrade packs makes me feel like this game could last for years with new courses and levels always being added.
Overall Rating/Recap
Although some crashing and lagging issues exist and some of the sounds get a bit repetitive, the overall game experience is very enjoyable and beating your friends over wi-fi never gets old. While the price point of $5.99 (at the time of this writing) may be a little steep, the game will probably remain on your phone for as long as you're an iPhone user (forever!!!).

School building |
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Kenya has, with support from Iceland and Norway built 70 primary schools in The West-Pokot region. Now there is a great need for secondary schools and we have taken it upon ourselves to build four such schools in the time that our resources permit. The most urgent part of the project is to build classrooms, dormitories, and cafeterias. The cost of building one classroom is 16,000 to 25,000 USD depending on its size. |

christmas with liberty – make a stocking
November 29, 2013 in homemade, interior styling
A few weeks ago I was asked by Liberty to make a Liberty Christmas stocking for Sew Liberty and their blog. I came up with and made a few different designs and worked with interiors and still life photographer Joanna Henderson on the photos. We had a fun few hours shooting them up in my loft studio.
These festive stockings are easy to make and add a little Liberty style to Christmas. Mix and match different patterns, buttons, trims and motifs to add visual interest. The memories associated with these hand-made pieces, will be treasured for years to come, they could easily become family heirlooms passed down to future generations of children to hang on Christmas Eve.
Materials and equipment:
Fabric that won't fray when cut – such as suiting wool, felt, finely woven linen.
A mix of Liberty print fabric in different scales and patterns
Pencil and paper to draw a larger template
Sewing machine
Fabric scissors
Bondaweb/Heat bond
Ribbons and trimmings
Needle and thread
Buttons for covering, lace flowers and beads (optional)
Wool and cardboard to make pompoms
To make a stocking:
Step 1: Measure your base fabric to make your stocking, either with one piece folded in half or two pieces pinned together. The stockings are 60cm long by 25cm wide from heel to toe with a top opening of 17cm diameter. You can adjust the sizing to suit the size of your fabric or make the stocking wider to accommodate larger gifts.
Step 2: Print out my template for reference and draw out a template on paper to the appropriate size. If you do not feel confident drawing then a photocopy shop can scale it up for you. Then pin the paper shape to your base fabric and cut out, so when you cut you end up with two pieces of stocking shaped fabric.
Step 3: Iron bondaweb onto the reverse of your chosen Liberty print fabrics.
Step 4: Cut out a toe, heal, top band and stars or flower shapes to the appropriate sizes and pin them in place, bondaweb side down.
Step 5: Iron them in place on a medium heat. You only need to do one side of the stocking if being hung, but you could do both sides of the stocking if you prefer.
Step 6: Add Liberty print covered buttons, vintage lace flowers, beading and vintage buttons to add interest.
Step 7: Pin the two sides together and stitch with a small border of 0.5cm using the sewing machine.
Step 8: Stitch a 15-20cm length of ribbon in a loop on to the top band to hang the stocking and embellish with extra trims.
Step 9: Sew on optional pompoms and tags to make the stockings more personal.
To make the pompoms:
Cut out two circles of card 8cm in diameter with a 3cm hole in the middle. Wind the wool round and round until the hole in the middle becomes small. Cut through the center of the two pieces of card and tie a piece of wool securely around the two and pull. Trim the length of the wool down until a thick pompom is achieved, stitch onto the stocking.
To make the tags:
Cut out a rectangle of fabric, snip off the corners and make a hole for the ribbon. Cut out letters or shapes such as birds from the fabric and iron into place with bondaweb.
As the fabric I was using had a little bird motif within its design, I cut out the bird shape and used it as a decoration amongst some rosehips.
I first met photographer Jo Henderson on a shoot a long time ago when we were still both assisting and we worked on some test shoots together to start our portfolios. We recently worked together styling and photographing a book for my publisher Cico Books. It was lovely to see Jo again and we have continued to work together on some other projects.
See Jo's work on her website here.
It makes things a little more interesting if all the designs are slightly varied. I made fabric covered buttons for the pink stocking above creating little spots of pattern dotted down its length. You can see the original post over on the Liberty blog.
Liberty print fabrics used:
Joyce A Tana Lawn, Capel F Tana Lawn, Wiltshire S Tana Lawn, Mitsi Valeria C Tana Lawn, Mitsi D Tana Lawn, Marco A Tana Lawn, Glenjade in red Tana Lawn.
Left over strips of fabric can also be used as ribbon to wrap around gifts and make them look extra special like in the image below.
I made stockings for my own children when they were babies and they still get so excited as they hang them up, imagining what Santa will fill them with while they sleep. I hope they'll keep the stockings and use them for their own children one day.
Happy making x

The Joey Ray Tribute ShowSubmitted by Will (not verified) on Mon, 06/30/2008 - 10:28am.
My name is Will I live on Cocoa Beach, Fl and see a lot of performers down here because of all the tourism from the beach and Cape Canaveral with the Shuttle launches, there is always something going on.
I'm a big Roy Orison & Elvis fan and have seen many impersonators in my time, but when I saw the Joey Ray Tribute Show, I was taken back like never before. Its one of those rare & captivating performances that constantly sends chills down your spine and makes your hair stand on end.
I have since traveled great distances to see The Joey Ray Tribute Show on several occasions including Sonny's Lounge & Show Club in Holden Beach, NC. and it was always worth every gallon of gas. Now with Sonny & The Boardwalk Band (Sonny having performed with Roy Orison) its makes it makes it NON-STOP Quality entertainment, an evening you will never forget. All the folks in Holden Beach, Myrtle Beach & Wilmington area are blessed with a unique and gifted talent/artist, don't miss it.
I Will be back!

I believe that one of the main reasons some composers and critics are so keen on taking a stand against serialism is because of its dominance. There is nothing wrong with the style itself if taken in context. I have enjoyed music written in that style when the composer uses the series melodically (such as Schoenberg and Berg) rather than mathematically. The important point is that serialism is the last of the dominant styles.
Up until the early sixties, classical music could be divided between dominant style (i.e. serialism) and an avant-garde that would by definition not be taken seriously. But the style explosion that occurred in the early sixties was a musical revolution. What the new pieces had in common was a totally different approach to performing and relating to an audience – very long pieces, many hours for instance, or Charlotte Moorman performing in the nude with her cello – and the redefinition of the building blocks of a piece, such as tonal center, continuity, rhythm and tuning. The use of equal temperament and the A=440 reference pitch were in question. Many different movements emerged from this revolution, the main one being minimalism, but it never really became the dominant style, as it would have in the past, because serialism was held in place by academia and institutions, so it continued to exist simultaneously. To these two major trends, newer experimental, microtonal, post-minimalist, totalist and other less definable styles flourished but were never fully acknowledged.
This phenomenon is similar to what happened in art in the beginning of the 20th century: once figurative painting was put in question, the new styles emerged, such as geometric abstraction, expressionism, cubism, abstract lyricism, abstract expressionism, conceptual art and pop art. Greg Sandow, in his artsjournal blog, recently made an interesting comparison between serialism and abstact painting like the work of Jackson Pollock. I would see more of a parallel between geometric abstraction like the work of Mondrian, Albers and Ellsworth Kelly and serialism, and put Jackson Pollock in the realm of free improvisation as in free jazz. What is interesting is to look at our music scene and apply a curatorial perspective to what is happening? Let's consider serialism as a style of the past – nevertheless, as valid as impressionism was at the time. What is objectionable is stylistic dominance. In the arts, it is widely understood that there is no unity of style and no necessity for it. I am asking for the same freedom for composers as visual artists have. We are a culture of cultures, every piece unwittingly refers to so many others, but reorients the viewer or listener towards a certain goal. But people like to see things in opposites: serialism vs. post-classic, downtown vs. uptown – maybe because Western ethics are based on the opposition of good and evil, whereas Eastern ethics focus on unity or "onenessâ€. The enlightened perspective is to see where the opposites connect – like the Yin Yang sign, where the white and black are perfectly balanced within a circle. I tend to see everything as closely related, even uptown and downtown. As a matter of fact, the tables are beginning to turn on downtown. Some composers seem keen on having "downtown†material, they don't want to be called "uptownâ€. People are beginning to crave the political correctness, the uncompromising authenticity the downtown tag carries. And there is a seductive element in downtown music, is playful, it's full of surprises and twists, and not so hard on the ear and nerves as some earlier 20th century music. But as downtown is being stylistically co-opted, a kind of fake downtown is likely to form and someone will have to sort out who's real, while, from a practical standpoint, downtowners are still being ghettoized and cut off from the institutions. What we need is the end of stylistic dominance, and the openness to accept new forms of expression.

Partnering with the experts
In our business, we know the power of partnerships. They help to solve problems and tackle issues in society by bringing together different skills and different viewpoints.
We have close ties with a range of diverse organisations, from NGOs to other businesses, public sector bodies and international organisations like the United Nations.
The Oxfam 365 Alliance
As an insurer, we understand the life-changing impact of losing a home or a loved one. That's why, in 2006, we became a founding partner of Oxfam 365, the international aid agency's emergency fund. We're committed to continue our support until the end of next year.
Oxfam 365 supports disaster relief operations. Having funds that are available immediately enables it to make grants and loans to its rapid-response humanitarian teams around the world, even before public funding is available.
Since the partnership began, Aviva has contributed over £1 million. We estimate our support has enabled Oxfam to help over half a million people in the wake of natural disasters like the earthquake in Haiti and Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines.
Norwich City's Community Sports Foundation
We teamed up with Norwich City Community Sports Foundation to deliver Classroom Champions, a range of cross-curricular activities for local primary schoolchildren. The six-week programme involves classroom-based sessions using Norwich City Football Club as a tool to deliver literacy and numeracy activities, followed by football coaching sessions.
We also work with the club to support the CSF's Sporting Light Appeal, which encourages people with disabilities into sport. At the match against Fulham in December 2013, we hosted a FanPic event to get fans to tag themselves, driving awareness and fundraising through social media.
In line with our long-term commitment to highlighting men's health issues and offering cover to ease financial worries during treatment for critical illnesses, we continue to be a high-profile supporter of Movember. This annual campaign encourages men to grow moustaches to raise awareness of prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men's mental health.
Players at Aviva Premiership rugby clubs were sponsored to grow moustaches during November. We donated £2,000 to the charity on behalf of Dylan Hartley, Northampton Saints, the player with the best 'Mo' – as voted for by fans via Facebook and Twitter. We also encouraged our own Facebook followers to join in Movember and over 75 UK employees did so.
Ahead of Movember we released previously unpublished details of private medical insurance and critical illness claims relating to male-specific cancers.
Robert Morrison, chief underwriter for Aviva says: "It's very clear from our data that men's cancers are a significant cause of claims, so it's great to see initiatives like Movember raising awareness of men's health issues.
"If prostate cancer is diagnosed early enough, the recovery rate tends to be very good. This is why we offer additional payments for critical illness customers diagnosed with early prostate cancer. This type of payment can help to ease financial pressures – for example if people need to take time off work for treatment – but cover remains in place with the full sum unaffected.
Supporting entrepreneurship
Our Turkish business, Aviva SA, is one of the main sponsors of GBEV, an organisation that runs a range of entrepreneurship programmes in Turkey. This gives young people practical experience of the world of enterprise.
Students learn how to take a business idea from concept to reality, forming their own business and discovering first-hand how a company works. They elect a board of directors from among their peers, and then market and finance a product or service of their choice. At the end of the programme, they present a report and accounts to their shareholders.
Last year, 18 Aviva staff became volunteer advisors, helping students to take part in the company programme.

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. — There's a good chance that regardless of what town you live or shop in around our region, it's not the same town your grandparents or great grandparents would recognize. Most of the towns of Southern Oregon started with a lot of wood business buildings.
The brick buildings we see now came later, either by design or by necessity. But where did those bricks come from?
Southern Oregon may be in the middle of timber country, but most of the business centers of our area are built of brick. Whether its Grants Pass, Medford, Klamath Falls or Ashland, for more than a hundred years brick has been the building material of choice. And most of those bricks were made right here, not far from the job.
One of the biggest brick buildings ever constructed in Southern Oregon only lasted for about three years. It was this huge sugar beet processing plant that took at least a million bricks to build in the late teens. It was then torn down and moved to eastern Washington. The bricks were made locally.
There were a couple near Grants Pass at various times. One in Central Point around the turn of the century and at least one in Jacksonville that lasted for many years and provided many of the brick to build downtown Medford. This is one of the first brick buildings in Medford, which at first was mostly made of wood buildings downtown. It took about a million bricks to build the old sacred heart hospital in 1911.
Most of the business buildings along Jacksonville's historic California Street are brick. Many were built in the late 1850's or early 1860's. Some on the U.S. Hotel, built in 1880, show the irregularities of some of the early bricks.
Some communities, like Lakeview and Grants Pass, were forced to build with brick following devastating fires that wiped out much of their earlier wood business districts.
Richard Smith's family operated Klamath Brick and Tile in Klamath Falls from 1917 until it was sold to Jeld-Wen, and then shut down in 1994, some 77 years! Started by his grandfather, Ralph W. Smith when local brick makers wouldn't sell him what he needed for his brick mason's business, they eventually shipped in clay from Idaho and California to mix with local clay to make a wide variety of brick products.
A good part of Klamath Falls downtown is made of Klamath Brick and Tile products. The Baldwin Hotel, Central School and the first high school, built in 1905, were some of the biggest projects. George Baldwin set up his own brickyard to get the bricks he needed for his hotel.
The lone remaining kiln at the old brickyard was built in the 20's and used slab wood from local mills at first, before converting to heavy oil, then natural gas to fire the bricks. It took five days to cook, then 3 and a half to cool down before being removed from the kiln. Now the kiln is cold.
It's been about 20 years since Klamath Brick and Tile ceased their operations in Klamath Falls That leaves only one or two brick operations left in all the state of Oregon. This old kiln is one of the few reminders of what was a staple industry in the Klamath Basin and Southern Oregon.
Richard Smith says when Klamath Brick and Tile got the contract for the brick to build the hospital at Camp White, which is now the Domiciliary, they had to call upon other Oregon brickyards to help fill the order; he says in the late '50s and early '60s there was about a dozen brick yards in Oregon. He says there is only one now, in the Portland area.

Music makes a space come alive. And the right music in a public space can energize a whole street.
So when our friends at the street design studio Arterial asked us to contribute to their PARKing Day event in Montclair, NJ, we were ready with a 1902 Steinway Model B.
PARKing Day is an international event based around building small temporary parks within parking spaces to demonstrate the possibility of reclaiming and "rehumanizing" urban spaces. There are some surprising ways to convert a parking spot or two in to a public park.
You should have a look at the article on the Arterial Blog. You can also browse more photos from the PARKing Day event, or look at the PARKing Day videos.
One of the most exciting developments for Lindeblad Piano in the last month was acquiring a fantastic vintage Steinway Model D. The model D is a "Concert Grand" and measures nearly 9 feet long. It dominates a concert hall, let alone our show room here in Pine Brook. Our pictures of it make it seem as if it's hardly contained by the camera, even.
We are in the process of completely restoring it, but, you can already feel it's unmatched power when you sit to play it. Playing a Model D feels like steering a Battleship when all you drive is a golf cart. The power in the bass is unmatched in pianos.
Here's the link to it's listing in our inventory. Feel free to call and ask us about it, and, when we finish it we are absolutely going to have it in our showroom. Battleship guns blazing.
UPDATE: We sold this piano to the Wolfeboro Friends of Music.
We are in the middle of finishing this really unique Circassian Walnut Knabe. The graining on it is fantastic and we think the loop in the center of the note rack looks like a target.

We have recently completely restored a 1902 Steinway Grand piano with a QRS Pianomation installed. I have attached photos of this masterpiece!

In general, organisms are motivated to avoid stimuli that induce pain. However, some individuals intentionally inflict pain on themselves (e.g., nonsuicidal self-injury) and report doing so for the perceived emotional benefits following the experience of pain. Two controlled laboratory studies sought to expand upon the relatively limited literature on the effects of pain on emotion. In Study 1, participants provided momentary affect ratings immediately before and after experiencing physical pain. Results demonstrated that both positive affect and negative affect (NA) decreased following the experience of pain. In the Study 2, we examined the effect that individual differences in emotional reactivity had on affective reactions to pain. Individuals high in emotional reactivity experienced larger decreases in NA following the experience of pain than individuals who were low in emotional reactivity. Our findings may potentially explain why some individuals intentionally seek out the experience of pain.

Interview with Blue Peter Book Award winner, Pamela Butchart
Yesterday, on World Book Day, the winners of this year's Blue Peter Book Award were announced.
A Darker Shade of Magic is that rare fantasy book that will satisfy both existing fantasy fans as well as readers who usually shy away from the genre.
The End of Vandalism is a rare hybrid – crime mystery mixed with talk show, character study mixed with improvised comedy show.
Alexandra Fuller's candid memoir Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight told of her turbulent childhood in Africa. That book ended with her wedding to Charlie Ross and Leaving Before the Rains Come is the tale of their marriage.
The Dreamsnatcher is a wonderfully magical debut for the 10 to 13 age group which will appeal to fans of Philip Pullman and Michelle Harrison. It features a young girl, a tenacious wildcat and a beautiful woodland setting.
A prophecy tears apart the bonds between four brothers in Chigozie Obioma's debut novel.
In the 1980s Robert Wardner was every teenage girl's dream; eccentric, handsome, and the lead singer of The National Grid, a post-punk band with gritty guitar riffs and deafening drum solos.
In a world where powerful, statuesque near-immortals overpowered and enslaved mankind, there is unrest. After an uprising 25 years ago ended in bloodshed and ruin most of the human race accepted their fate and lost all hope of ever being free again.
Although we're still hibernating in the depths of winter, 2015 is already shaping up to be a stellar book year with another accomplished debut novel on the cards in Claire Fuller's haunting Our Endless Numbered Days.
The Fire Sermon is set 400 years in the future, after the Earth has been scorched by a nuclear explosion, and the radiation fallout has ended. The destruction has left everyone being born with a twin.
Sarie Holland is the perfect kid. She is smart, responsible and doesn't even drink. However, when she is caught by a narcotics police officer while helping a friend she is desperate to not ruin her future.
"I did the worst thing a woman could do. The very worst. Did I do it on purpose? Yes, yes, I did"

Every year more than half a million abused and neglected children are in need of safe, permanent, nurturing homes. Too many spend years moving from one temporary home to another. They have no family to call their own. They are more likely than other children to face homelessness, unemployment, even prison as adults. That's why CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) is important. CASA was created to make sure the abuse and neglect these children originally suffered in the home doesn't continue as abuse and neglect at the hands of the system.As trained advocates, CASA volunteers get to know children in foster care and talk with their caregivers, schools, therapists, and other professionals, in order to gather information about their wellbeing and advocate for them in court. CASA volunteers advocate for the appropriate services to be offered to the children and their families and assist the Court in determining the appropriate permanent plan for each child.No special skills are required and you will receive all the training you need through CASA for Children in Middlesex County.To apply to become a Court Appointed Special Advcoate, please visit: http://www.casaofmiddlesexcounty.org/Volunteerapp.aspx

Division Chief
Joshua L. Levine, MD
The Center was established in order to provide every woman in need with a full array of choices when it comes to breast reconstruction.
Yet, according to The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) current national "Choice" campaign, nearly 70 percent of women eligible for breast reconstruction are not routinely informed of the full array of their options. Approximately 79,000 women experienced breast reconstruction in 2008, yet 55,300 went into surgery without full knowledge of innovative surgical options to enhance their quality of life.
This is why The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery created the New York Center for the Advancement of Breast Reconstruction -- a unique center of excellence offering women every available option for breast cancer surgery and breast reconstruction.
Such reconstructive procedures utilize the patient's own tissue both for skin replacement and provision of contour, which in our experience is superior to implant and muscle flap/operations in the majority of patients Using the body's own tissue (skin and fat) to make a breast results in a more natural, long-lasting reconstruction.
New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai performs almost 150 such cases a year, without muscle sacrifice and the frequent complications associated with such a procedure. NYEE is fortunate to have on its staff the pioneers in the deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap technique and also in the nipple sparing operation allowing us to offer techniques frequently lacking in many other centers.
The recent opening of two new microvascular operating rooms and recovery units will contribute to the growth and success of this program.

UPDATED: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 - 2:25pm
El Paso - - Police are investigating a sexual assault at Coronado High School.
The school district and police are not giving us much information at this point but here is what we do know.
Police say the sexual assault happened at 3:4pm yesteray at Coronado High School. Our media partners at the El Paso Times report a police crime scene unit was dispatched to the school's gym at 10:30 last night.
Officers were also sent to the hospital. Neither police nor the district would tell us if the allegations involve a student.
The EPISD says, "The district's police department along with city police are investigating an alleged sexual assault after being called to Coronado High School Tuesday evening. This is an isolated incident and the main priority of the district is the safety and well-being of the students and employees."
The district hopes to have more information about the sexual assault Thursday.
