Sound field recording has become powerful tool for capturing the everyday as well as the extraordinary and the unfamiliar. Collating sounds through recording on location can act as a way of understanding an unknown city or telling a personal story. This concert presents recent works by SARC composers that take a quasi-documentary approach to composition. The pieces in the programme tell a story of place and people and reveal a sound world for engagement and reflection.

This public lecture examines the phenomenon of "Irish Nights" in the playhouses of late Belfast. These occasions featured the performances of popular, political melodramas that provoked a riotous response from working class audiences, who flocked to the theatre in their droves. Described as "melodramas within melodramas," Irish Nights were unique to Belfast given its context as a crucible of sectarian conflict in this period, however, the lack of "real" rioting outside theatres on these occasions suggests these in-house ructions were mock ones and part of the night out. Nevertheless, they helped consolidate the city's notorious reputation as being a tough place to play, with some artists remarking "if you could survive Belfast and Glasgow, you could survive anywhere."
Until relatively recently, official histories of Irish theatre were characterised by Abbey Theatre director Hugh Hunt's view that this vital Victorian period of drama dominated by Dion Boucicault was "best forgotten"- an attitude shared by the same institution's founders, W.B. Yeats and Lady Gregory, who despised the popular theatre stage (and the plebs who packed it). And yet, Boucicault's influence is pervasive. It ghosts generations of later playwrights' work: the comic double-acts and music hall knockabout of O'Casey, Beckett, and Behan. Even Conn the Shraughraun's famous wake scene – fittingly restaged in Parker's play to enact Boucicault's stage exit from life – shadows Synge's Riders to the Sea.
In recent years, historians, scholars and practitioners have helped to recuperate Boucicault's work and to demolish earlier attitudes that disregarded him as a cheap hack. Audiences too have also demonstrated their appreciation of his work as several recent productions by the Abbey and Druid Theatres, and the National Theatre, London have played to packed houses. In the second event of this new initiative between Drama and English, Tim Loane will direct selected excerpts from Boucicault's classic melodramas The Shraughraun, the Colleen Dawn and Arraghna-Pogue. This miscellany is intended to give an impressionistic overview of some of his most successful works.
Dependents, delinquents, rebels, citizens, soldiers, suffragettes, lawmakers – women have historically occupied a variety of roles in relation to the law. This 2015 conference, in celebration of International Women's Day, seeks to examine the multi-faceted nature of women's relationship with the law from ancient to modern times. It will explore the ways in which governments and institutions have recognised, restricted and engaged their female citizens, as well as the ways that women have worked within, challenged and shaped the law.

Ayurveda is the ancient healing system of India. It is rooted in the principle that spirit, mind and body are inextricably linked. According to Ayurveda, each of us has a unique psycho/physiological body type, which determines our individual traits and tendencies. In this workshop you will learn about your constitution and how to appreciate and make the best use of your unique qualities. Inappropriate diet and lifestyle lead to certain symptoms which in turn will eventually cause disease. We will look at practical diet and lifestyle changes you can make to bring balance into your life, address symptoms and help prevent disease.

In association with Seamus Heaney Centre, Queen's University Belfast In a recent report by Save the Children, literacy and reading for under 11s was highlighted as one of the key priorities in changing the future prospects of children living in high deprivation in the UK. At the same time, the canon of Northern Irish writers in fiction, poetry, film and stage is recognized as one of our greatest international calling cards. How do we connect the two? How do we encourage children and young people to tell stories and love literature? How we do we harness the power of telling stories in different forms? These issues will be addressed by a panel of distinguished writers, academics and educators including Garrett Carr, Roddy Doyle, Bruce Ingman, David Lucas, Rory O'Connor, Liam O'Hare, Louise O'Neill, Glenn Patterson, Axel Scheffler, Damian Smyth, Pádraic Whyte and Sheena Wilkinson. The launch of Fighting Words Belfast will take place following these discussions. Fighting Words Belfast is a new creative writing project for children and young people. The project is a partnership between Young at Art, Skainos and 174 Trust.
SPEAKER: Lee Jerome, School of Education, QUB
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child established children's right to an education which promotes human rights, and established a duty on states to ensure children are informed about their rights. Taken together this provides a warrant for introducing some form of child rights education (CRE), that is, an education which teaches children about their rights and enables them to assume the role of rights holder. Drawing on a recently completed survey of 26 countries and seven more detailed country case studies, this paper reflects on the nature of CRE (what is it we want to achieve exactly?), the extent of implementation (what is, and is not, happening within the education systems of these countries to promote CRE?) and how progress can be secured (how have advocates made breakthroughs to promote CRE?). The answers to these questions provide enough glimpses of developed CRE that we can tease out a set of benchmarking statements, to help educators measure their progress against the best that is being achieved.
The debate on the sustainability of the arts and cultural sector often centres on the way it must diversify its funding base and its business model. But what are the leaders of the industry doing to secure its creative sustainability. In what way must our industry adapt to safeguard its artistic development? How does the sector innovate in periods of negative public policy and investment? And what are the challenges and difficult decisions heads of organisations face when they address sustainability of their whole sector and not just their organisation? Tony Reekie will speak with first-hand experience as the head of one of the UK's leading development organisations in the field of theatre.
Session will include a Q&A chaired by Ali Fitzgibbon, CEO of Young at Art.

Northern Ireland remains one of the most researched places on earth, and following the Good Friday Agreement has provided a template for the transition to a post-conflict society that has been exported globally. For a place so small it provides a diversiform political and social environment wherein identity and culture have an unusual salience. Overarching and unresolved questions of cultural, political, and historical legitimacy contour societal engagement to the extent it can create an existential threat to the structures of the state, and the individual. Led by post-graduate research students, representing a range of disciplines at Queen's University Belfast, this symposium will discuss Northern Irish identity, its characteristics, history, problems, and future direction. This symposium is open to all, and will seek to build inter-disciplinary collaboration between participants for future impact and engagement on the importance of identity in modern Northern Ireland.
SANDEEP BHAGWATI is a composer, researcher, poet, theatre maker, installation artist, and conductor, born in India, a citizen of Germany now living in Montréal, Canada. In his work, he likes to ask himself questions that he cannot answer, set himself tasks that stymie him, and to break with practices that no one thinks are broken. In order to further foster and enhance his ignorance, he founded, in 2006, a research-creation lab at Concordia University, the matralab, where he and his team work on computer improvisation, interactive scores, invisible bodysuit scores and creative research into inter-traditional music and theatre forms, but also on the theoretical-artistic exploration of comprovisational technique, inter-traditional aesthetics and world-conscious art practices such as political performance, environmental sound art or responsive creation.

The concept of judicial deference has been developed in the United States as well as in UK, Canada and Ireland. It limits the scope of judicial review of administrative agencies' actions in the light of agencies' superior expertise and separation of powers arguments. The paper after presenting the foundations of the concept in U.S. law analyzes whether there are legal grounds for the validity of the concept of judicial deference in Continental Europe where it remains generally accepted that it is a role of courts (and not administrative agencies) to interpret the law. Standards stemming from Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights (the ECHR) are analyzed in order to answer the question whether deferential standard of review is permissible under the ECHR principle of full judicial review. The analysis of the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights leads—quite surprisingly—to the conclusion that there is a space for U.S.-like judicial deference under European fundamental rights framework. Dr Maciej Bernatt is an Assistant Professor at the Jean Monnet Chair in Eu-ropean Economic Law, Faculty of Management, University of Warsaw and as a law clerk and assistant of Chief Justice in the Polish Constitutional Court.

This work is an interactive sound installation based around lived experiences of dance music and club culture. The piece dissects the art and science of DJ-ing and explores individual and collective identities formed through involvement with electronic music scenes both emergent and historic. It interrogates the notion that any given era was notably exceptional with a range of participants across three generations. The installation draws on people's memories inside a club: the collective experience; the out-of body experience; the fleeting, microcosmic social experience. The story is told by those who know it best - DJs who have spent as much time on the dance floor as behind the decks. Everybody (Wants To Be The DJ) invites you to join them and have your moment. It asks whether techno and house music ever could or indeed still can save the world.

1916 witnessed two events that would profoundly shape both politics and commemoration in Ireland over the course of the following century. Although the Easter Rising and the battle of the Somme were important historical events in their own right, their significance also lay in how they came to be understood as iconic moments in the emergence of Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic.
The Easter Rising proved a source of legitimacy not only for the independent Irish state that emerged out of the War of Independence but for subsequent republican movements that sought to justify the continued use of violence for political ends. From the 1960s the Rising's contested legacy became central to the emergence of acrimonious debates about the writing of Irish history that were further intensified and, unusually for historiographical disputes, given wide public purchase by the outbreak of the Troubles.
In Ulster the sacrifice of the 36th Division on the Western Front provided a key foundation myth for the Northern Irish state. As with the memory of the Rising for republicans, the Somme offered unionist and loyalist movements a potent source of political capital. Although long a contentious feature of the Irish commemorative landscape, as witnessed by its ubiquity in loyalist murals, the aftermath of the Good Friday Agreement has also seen the appropriation of the memory of the First World War to fashion a more conciliatory narrative of the shared Catholic and Protestant experience of war.
Adopting an interdisciplinary approach drawing on history, politics, anthropology and cultural studies, this colloquium will explore how the memory of these two iconic events has been constructed, mythologised and revised over the course of the past century. The aim is not merely to understand how the Rising and Somme came to exert a central place in how the past is viewed in Ireland, but to address this subject as a means of exploring wider questions about the relationship between history and memory.
Topics of interest to those beyond scholars of Irish history will include: the construction of communal memory, the role of commemoration in shaping national and political identity, and the relationship between academic history and public memory. Specific papers will address: the politics of memory and commemoration; the memorialisation of history; the shaping of collective memory; the influence of the Troubles on the history and memory of 1916; the role of the historian in engaging with popular memory and commemoration; the international impact of 1916; and how theories of memory can inform our understanding of commemoration and popular history.
The growth of 'modern' Belfast began with Sir Arthur Chichester, who in 1603, was given land including Belfast for his part in the defeat of the Ulster Gaels in the Nine Years' War. This field trip around central Belfast will tell the story, through the people, events and buildings that go to make up the history of the city. Meet at the front of the City Hall at 10.00 am.

Elizabeth walks into a Sinn Fein constituency office seeking assistance regarding anti-social behaviour in her area. Frank takes her details and promises to look into it. He later learns she is the widow of an RUC man killed by the IRA, and is warned to tread carefully. This brief encounter poses challenges for personal preconceptions and beliefs, straining family and political loyalties.
Those You Pass on the Street explores the complexities of dealing with the legacy of conflict, especially when that conflict is localised and personal. It contrasts party political positioning with individual needs. It challenges the view that any mechanism for dealing with the past is simply about 'whose side gets what'. This show will run for approx one hour and after Saturday's performance, there will be a postshow discussion with the playwright, Dr Laurence McKeown; Kabosh's artistic director, Paula McFetridge, chaired by Dr Mark Phelan
SPEAKERS: Lesley Emerson and Karen Orr, School of Education, QUB
This research, carried out on behalf of the Department of Justice, set out to explore the need for legal services for children and young people (CYP) in Northern Ireland (NI). Interviews were carried out with key stakeholders with direct experience of the legal needs of CYP, a wide range of focus groups with CYP and an online survey of post-primary school pupils to ascertain their knowledge and understanding of their legal rights and needs. The research indicates that the vulnerability of children and young people and their relative dependency on adults brings about specific legal needs, such as, inter alia: accurate assessment of competence; appropriate communication skills for adults engaging with children and young people; the recognition of children as rights-holders with the particular right to have their views sought, listened to and taken seriously; adequate time for cases so that meaningful consultation can occur at each stage of the legal process; need for legal specialism in relation to the issues faced by children and young people; age appropriate treatment by police; child friendly facilities and age appropriate court proceedings. In particular the seminar will focus on fundamental barriers to meeting the legal needs of children and young people: their lack of knowledge and understanding of their legal rights; their lack of confidence in relation to safely exercising their legal rights, for fear of repercussion; and their lack of willingness to exercise rights because they feel it would make little difference.

In these two works, separated by nearly a century, but strikingly akin in concept, the spectator/listener is invited into the psychical processes of another human being during a moment of heightened experience. For Pre-Composition, we are welcomed into the mind of a composer (Applebaum himself?) as he prepares his next piece. In Mrs. Laneen we enter the disordered mind of a woman in ill-health, possibly nearing death. The two pieces, presented together for the first time, offer a unique sound and theatre experience that presents a take on creativity and mental illness surprisingly consonant with current ideas in neuroscience.
Disassembler is a new group dedicated to the interpretation and performance of live electronic and fixed media concert works. Focused on exploring the physical / acoustic possibilities of electro-acoustic music through working with materials such as denuded loudspeakers, resonant / textured preparations, feedback, room acoustics / resonance, randomness / probability processes, instability.

Did we have a Revolution or a putsch? Who was shooting on the 21st? And who was shooting on the 22nd? Was the army shooting on the 21st or did some shoot and some not shoot? Or were the Securitate disguised in army uniforms? And were they still shooting on the 22nd? Were they now disguised as Securitate? Where did the flags come from? Who put loudhailers in the square? How could they publish a newspaper so soon? Who got Ceausescu to call everyone together? Where are the bodies?
In December 1989, Romanian Communist Party Leader Nicolae Ceausescu's regime was overthrown by the people of communist controlled Romania, during a series of violent protests, deadly riots and chaos in the capital. Shortly after the bloodbath Caryl Churchill and a group of students travelled to Bucharest and through interviews with people from all backgrounds, Churchill has complied the first hand accounts of the Revolution into the story of 'Mad Forest'. The three act play set before, during and after the Revolution is thought provoking, gripping and entertaining. Presenting a wide-lensed account of Romanians from all walks of life, there is as much authenticity in the dialogue as in the silences.
This recital centres upon one of the pinnacles of the Romantic repertoire, the B minor Sonata by Liszt. Pianist Philip Edward Fisher is widely recognized as a unique performer of refined style and exceptional versatility whose tours have taken him across the United Kingdom to Italy, Austria, Denmark, Switzerland, Norway, Romania, the Ukraine, Japan, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and the United States. 2002 marked his New York debut at Alice Tully Hall, performing Rachmaninov's Third Piano Concerto under the baton of Larry Rachleff.

The Hottest Australian Actresses
The sexiest and most beautiful Australian actresses in the world with photos. Is it something they put in the water? It seems like Australia has more hot women per capita than any other country in the world. Or maybe we just see the best ones in movies and film... All the hot Australian actresses on this list were either born in Australia or come from Australian descent. They are mostly blonde, and they are mostly wearing (very small) swimsuits and splashing about in the waves. Many also model. These Australian sheilas are sexy and talented (well, not all of them are necessarily talented) and are either on the big screen or small screen. Actually, most of them were probably on "Neighbours," which they pronounce like "naaay-buhs." Either way, these are very sexy Australian actresses. Vote up the ones you would like to see more often.

Is it Harsh? I have a quarter horse who has always had a tum thumb bit. But I was just wondering, Is that considered a harsh bit? also, can people add some pics of some harsh bits they have run into during the past? Here is a pic of my bit. Is it harsh? http://www.horseforum.com/data:image...PFSiICIiD/2Q== thanks everyone!:lol::lol: |
http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.h...2-00b0d0204ae5 Ugh my picture didn't load I will try again |
the picture didnt show up |
Tom Thumbs are horrible bits. They have a nutcracker action and give confusing signals to the horse. Chuck it in the garbage ASAP. Posted via Mobile Device |
I agree with GamingGrrl. Horrible bit; if used correctly (which rarely ever is) it's an okay bit. If not used correctly, it can ruin a horse. My Arab had huge issues from that nasty bit that his first owners used on him; it took months for him to accept a (much gentler) bit and not be afraid of bits anymore. |
Can anyone help me get the picture on please?https://www.google.ca/search?q=tom+t...5%3B937%3B1161 |
While Tom Thumb bits are not designed real well, it still boils down to the hands on the reins and the how the rider rides and cues in general. |
Now I don't know of every bit ever made, but there are good bits for beginner horses and there are good bits for beginner riders. Asking if a bit is too harsh is the same as saying this fork made me fat. Its not the bit its who's hands are using it and what horse are you putting it in. To train a colt with a spade bit would be way way way past harsh, does that make spade bits harsh? No. in the right hand and in the right horse a spade bit can work and not be harsh. As to your question about tom thumb bits I agree with everyone else I real don't like the cheep tom thumb bits and I am working them out of my program. |

I went to London town to clear up my mind
Then on to Paris for the fun I could find
I found I couldn't leave my memories behind
Where can I go without you?
Tried seeing Germany but that wouldn't do
Went to Vienna but I found you there too
Even in Switzerland, your memory came through
Where can I go without you?
I wanted travel, I wanted romance
I chased that rainbow across the sea
I'm tired of faces and quaint old places
If you can't be there with me
Back on the boat again, farewell to France
Farewell to London town, they haven't a chance
I'll trade the sights I've seen for one loving glance
Where can I go, where can I go?
Where can I go without you?

People | 4 |
Bedrooms | 2 |
Bathrooms | 2 |
Property type | villa |
Minimum Stay | 3 nights |
The villa is air conditioned and is beautifully decorated with a clean and chic Caribbean flavor. The bedrooms are both doubles and are served by ensuite bathrooms. The kitchen boasts all modern conveniences, and is a joy to cook in. The large living space indoors is separated from the balcony by a large french door, which gives plenty of natural light. The balcony itself is simply stunning, with constant fresh breezes and an unrivaled view of the 2 mile beach below.
Villa as described! Excellent views, large outdoor/indoor living space, property very well maintained and serviced during stay. Owner readily available for any needs and prepared nice welcome packet with useful tips and recommendations. Would highly recommend this property to any couple or 2 couples traveling to St Lucia. No soaps or shampoo available so make sure to bring your own, plenty of linen, towels and fresh fruit upon arrival! Rental car a must.
We loved the location of the villa and the view was spectacular. We loved the open air concept of the villa it was the perfect size for our family. It was very close to several grocery stores and shopping. The villa was very clean and we spent most of our time on the open airy deck. We did have a rental car and drove to the rain forest for zip-lining as well as to the pitons. The drive from the villa to the pitons took about 1.5 hours and was a bit tricky but well worth the drive. They were in the process of adding a pool and sundeck on the lower level of the villa. We can't wait to come back and stay when that is completed. Lezlie was most gracious and had stocked the refrigerator for our first breakfast as our flight arrived later into the evening. Lezlie was so accommodating and helpful during our stay. We can't wait to come back! The inter island airport is right next door, but we were never bothered by the airplanes. The airport closes at night. We enjoyed watching the planes come and go during the day.
Exactly as advertised. Rent a car and enjoy St. Lucia on your own schedule.
We visited Ti Caye Vigie at the end of January - two couples traveling together to celebrate a milestone birthday for one of our group. St. Lucia is beautiful and the people are so friendly. We enjoyed our villa stay much better than a resort, lots of privacy but still close to many activities. Leslie was very helpful throughout the booking process and during our visit, even arranging for us to visit The Body Holiday in Cap Estate. She arranged a driver for us from the airport and we ended up using his services for all of our travel throughout the week. (Hey Kendal, you are the best!)
The villa is built high up in the hillside overlooking Vigie Beach and always has a refreshing breeze. We spent a lot of time on the balcony just enjoying the spectacular view. We ate most of our meals outside as well. Inside, the villa is nicely decorated and very clean and comfortable. The bedrooms, bath and kitchen are all nicely appointed. Beds were very comfortable, bathrooms roomy and well-lighted, showers were good with plenty of hot water. We were able to use the laundry facilities on the lower level so did a load of laundry halfway through our stay. We did some of our own cooking and found the kitchen to be easy to work in. There isn't a supermarket within walking distance so taxi into Castries to the supermarket and outdoor market for groceries. The Castries market is also a great place to buy souvenirs and do some duty-free shopping.
As noted in other reviews, there is an airport near the villa and we could hear planes from time to time but it really didn't bother us. The short road to the villa is quite steep but we were able to walk down to the beach in about 15 minutes. We also walked farther up the road to the Vigie Lighthouse for a marvelous view at sunset.
From the villa's vantage point on the hillside, the port in Castries is visible and we saw different cruise ships every day with the picturesque harbor in the foreground. We went there to board a whale/dolphin watching cruise down to Soufriere and the Pitons.
Thank you Leslie for everything! Our trip was all that we had hoped for. We had a marvelous time and since we are having a record year of snowfall and low temps here in Ohio, we are already pining for beautiful St. Lucia!
Wishing you all the best,
I grew up in St. Lucia and new this location very well. Not only is it beautiful, it has all the amenities one would want and is very safe. Great for morning walks on the beach or in the beautiful neighborhood. There is a short drive to the northern part of the island where you can enjoy great dinning and shopping, Reduit beach and the famous Pigeon Isalnd. There is small airport nearby that is a little noisy but the other benefits outweigh the small inconvenience. Leslie the manager was very accommodating even providing the use of two pay as you go cell phones for local use. The house is close to the city Market so you can get fresh local fruits and vegetables you will need during your stay. My wife and kids loved it. I plan to visit again soon....Leslie thanks again...you were wonderful. See you soon!
Everything and more!! Recently renovated. Spacious and meticulously maintained. Amenities abound. Owner was always available for questions or advice, and enhanced our vacation immensely by taking the guess work out of which services and local providers to use. From car rental to dive operators, the trip went perfectly, largely due to the owner's assistance.
Location was perfect!! Allowed us access to the beautiful northern Cap Estates area, where we visited the luxurious Le Sport / BodyHoliday resort on day passes. The beautiful beach cove tucked between mountain areas, the beautiful Spa with the endless choices of treatments and a multitude of incredible massages.
The Villa has a gorgeous open deck area, perfect for taking in the scenery, and relaxing.
Location is minutes away from the famed Rodney Bay, and great restaurants.
The beauty of Soufriere, the Pitons, which is an amazing hike and breathtaking view, are an incredibly scenic drive away.
Villa is 5 minutes from terrific dive boat operators.
The privacy, roominess, and quiet, all contributed to a wonderful decision to stay at the Villa.
The island provides for a multitude of activities, or the simple relaxation of a quiet beach vacation.
Centrally located to all, there is no better place to stay. With 2 bedrooms, my family enjoyed this far more than a hotel room.
Ti Caye House overlooks Vigie Beach and is in a stunning rural and tropical location. Situated very near to the main city, Castries, it is ideally located near to a multitude of tours such as fishing, beach visits, island tours. A short walk to the beach means it is also perfectly suited for total relaxation. High on the hill means constant cooling breezes and stunning views!

Classy way to hang around! Sarah from Winston-Salem, NC– Verified Buyer I have 3 of these now, and they are used in my office by staff, myself, and patients and their families. They are sturdy, decorative, and do their job in a very classy way. They not only have nice heavy hangers, but an umbrella stand and hat hooks complete the stand. I did have one base break when a child hung and swung on the stand, so it does not repel severe horseplay without damage, which is the only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. Would buy another one if I ever needed it. |
Attractive, functional and sturdy. Valerie from WHITE LAKE, MI– Verified Buyer It is heavy and solid so it won't tip. I would recommend. |
Great product! Sheila from Fort Lauderdale, FL– Verified Buyer Timely delivery and great product. Glad I purchased it because it organized everything. |

Loved staying at the FEMA guesthouse! We rented the whole property (main and guest house) and it was perfect! Great bathroom and shower, kitchen was perfect for what we needed. The yard is gorgeous and well kept. Perfect place for seeing midtown and Memphis - the farmers market was RIGHT across the street on Saturday and that was a great treat! Made for an excellent brunch that day! Parking was super easy and we felt very safe all the time. I can't wait to stay here again!
Great guesthouse in a great location. Chere was a gracious host and very helpful when I had a crazy schedule. Would definitely stay here again!!
Chere made us feel completely comfortable when we first arrived. The house is awesome, and super cozy. Some very delicious restaurants are a couple of blocks away, and Beale Street was about 15 minutes away, so very convenient. Next time we come back, we are definitely staying at Chere's place. Thanks again!
A few friends and I decided to stop in Memphis on our way back to Chicago from New Orleans. On relatively short notice Chere was able to accommodate us. The place was clean and easy to access and provided exactly what we needed. Two of us slept in the big bed upstairs, one of us in the second bedroom and then a buddy crashed on the couch. There are even a few DVDs to pop in as you go about your business. The FEMA guesthouse was within in walking distances to quite a few restaurants and bars. We went for a little longer walk to Central BBQ and then spent the evening closer to the house at a few bars that are right down the street. I highly recommend a stay here if you are looking to hang out in the Cooper Young neighborhood. It was an easy walk even on a cold December night.
we had such a great time staying at chere's place. it was comfortable, clean and had great charm. chere was super welcoming and gave us an unforgettable experience of Memphis.
Chere was very flexible and accommodating with us when we had some plans change. She meet us in a timely manner to hand us the keys. The guest house was just as it was pictured; charming and welcoming with Chere's artwork in the space. The location was nice for us in relation to my sister's house, close and easy to get to. Also close to restaurants and shops. I will say it is a block from train tracks on which trains run randomly during the day and night and the horn can be loud if you aren't used to it. Other than that, it is a lovely place to stay, with a lovely host.
This is such a beautiful, unique, cozy place - especially when you are staying with more than 2 people! You'll have the whole little backyard house for yourself, with a fantastic kitchen which has everything you need. And Chere is just wonderful - we wish we could have stayed longer to have time to chat more with her. She will recommend you the best places to go for pancakes (Bob's Barksdale), beers, and surely more :-) And the neighborhood is great - super safe and no issues with parking.

January 2012 Mention in the Memphis Daily News (website hidden)
A Cajun in Memphis, Chere is an artist, teacher, designer.....pursues a spiritual path. Enjoys people of all sorts, showing graciousness and hospitality. Proud to have hosted guests from all over the world - Brits, Kiwis, Russians, as well as guests from India and a lovely Tasmanian woman. Also, wonderful Americans!
I possess broad views, curious and great sense of humor. I am friendly but respectful of guests privacy.
Several people have asked why the Fema is named the Fema. Primarily as a joke, when my children come up from Louisiana Gulf Coast to visit and they stay "out back", they called the guesthouse, The Fema because of it's slightly temporary and substandard nature, it is essentially a 100 year old tack house........As a Louisiana native my family has lived through dozens of hurricanes as well as Rita and Katrina. The reference to Fema in our Cajun and Creole cultures is one of suspicion, outrage, and humor
The idea that FEMA could manage a recovery for Cajuns after Rita was somewhat laughable to us, Cajun people are "bootstraps" kind of people who rely on themselves and each other for sustenance and survival. Fema, then is a poke-of-fun gesture; as well as a comical gesture of Cajun hospitality, she also hopes to provoke conversation on what it was like and how our lives are changed as the results of these Category 5 experiences.
My memories of visiting Henry, Louisiana after Rita are of homes being swept off their foundations, salt water intrusion into rural settlements, destroyed ch urches and schools, and the iconic Fema Trailer newly established withV irgin Mary statues marking the entries. The ridiculousness of governmental efforts at viable assistance continues to be a source of comedic relief for those of us along the Gulf Coast.
Fema is not a reference to fright, terror or abandonment but one of hope, hospitality and humor offered by someone who has been there countless times and accepted these same offerings in the spirit that they were given. Personally, in the unsettlement (if you will Category 5 experiences) that have occurred for me personally, professionally over the years.....solace and support can be sought and found in the most unlikely and obscure places.
Don't be afraid of the The Fema, she is a place of rest, solace and welcome. BTW The Fema Guesthouse has a (website hidden) page! You can see pics and more details about Chere, the guesthouse, and visitors.
Located midtown Memphis, Cooper-Young Neighborhood.....historically hip!

personal reference sheet help has to be?? Listing of employeers, contact, phone numbers and additionally contact??? and references with phone results? No contact info if you give it Where thinking of planning to dispense this reference metal sheet? If it's a part of your resume, then it must be names and titles whenever you worked with these folks -- no deals with or contact details. References should sole be provided after an interview and earlier than an offer. this is immediately after an interview and in front of you second they asked for my reference published. Then names as well as contact information You bet, it's just an easy listing of artists and contact information and facts. If your contact isn't any longer at the equivalent company, then show that in parenthesis. At the same time, make sure the refs know that someone could be contacting them in the near future. What did they for? I just give the references with his or her's names, contact info and addition thornbird tire review ally my relationship with each other. (past boss from ABC company, co-worker, whatever) I don't give boston furniture store the my past companies alone with info.

USA Airways distributing bucks bonus to every single employee "ONE EFFORT BONUS. " This is often, truly; yes, it's safe to give bonuses to your employees, but usd is nothing. Such people (ticketing, totes, etc. ) get together with nothing for paycheck. And that's pre-tax. Of which this company wants to help buy Delta Aircraft?? US Airways CEO's take home is $ K/yr + qualified to apply for performance bonus as much $It's almost a slap in the face, but Reckon the employees is going to feel good to sort it out and management can feel good in relation to themselves. A bad decision though, on a management perspective. Employees weren't expecting a definite plus, now management opens itself as much criticism over the exact amount AND employees' objectives for "holiday" bonuses later in life. a merger between crap airlines? drip down economics!!!

Can I look at extended UI many benefits? Don't want to become prison or be laughed right out the office. Can't imagine some others haven't done an identical somewhere somehow.

Economy Stress is definitely Crashing my Braini would certainly try all of your above, and if he or she deny, i would probably appeal, cuz administrative judges can now and again overrule denials.

On earth do you believe what We need for my occupation interview? . It's a party interview . It's - minutes long . Groundbreaking, i was bring copies about my resume plus referances (I appreciate that). . I need to bring in a college transcripts including a letter of recommedation (uh okay) . An example of my making (wtf?! ) Oh yeah- it's forpart-time no reward job that compensates around $ 1 hour though I'm absolutely sure they'll lowball my family to $. Is without a doubt this bullshit or even what? And absolutely no, I don't preferably need the job. What gives with everyof requirements for some part-time gig? all I can easily say is that there's a lot of assholes out presently there, who get pleasure using fucking with people today.... it's simple because thatdid your mommy ever save penning samples you performed in elementary? I dare that you bring some with you! o . k ., not really, but it is funny... at least in my opinion. Seriously I'd never pay a visit to group interview. Jobs doing this suck BIG MOMENT. they said it will be me and a further applicantThis is to manufacture a competition between people and the additional applicant. Guess it's about your need to have the yob... I would like it "maybe" dependent on how I was feeling back then. I got and way through addressing a cl advertising campaign for hire a very few minutes ago then figured they are able to track me once they wanted and quit out of it.. I stand remedied If it's merely you and another individual, go for them! Think about the following: You have your % chance! I most certainly will take those the chances! i think we've the day apart tommorow anyways so it will be not like i've anything else easier to do. That's the actual! Go get 'em, Tiger! what must expect? from a few minutes group interview? This will depend If you're referring to being interviewed with the help of other people in addition, I don't be aware of, I've never conducted those instead of will. If, on the contrary, you're going that should be interviewed by many people in addition, then I possess a few tips: . End up yourself, they're not only for looking for a staff, but someone they must work with regularly, they want to familiar, too. Be tranquil, friendly and check into their eyes whenever you talk to these individuals. Pretend you may have learned them. . Be ready. Know that they'll ask some tricky questions. Even should you answer with the proper info, they're also interested in see if that you are being evasive. If and when they already know you had been fired from anywhere you want, tell them, however into a favourable, never badmouth your current last employer. . De-stress, and ask these some questions much too, they want so that you can about their small business, give them the opportunity as such, sound like you may be impressed.

Rich Making Roth Conversions Best Pay Now
The $100,000 income limitation to qualify for a Roth IRA conversion has been lifted. And the government, for this year only, is allowing taxpayers to pay the conversion taxes pro rata over two years, 2011-12.
That sounds great on the surface. Who wouldn't want to pay the taxes later rather than sooner?
But one group in particular should absolutely not take the government up on their deferral offer: taxpayers in the highest federal tax bracket who expect to remain there over the next two years. They should pay the bill in full for tax year 2010.
I ran a simple projection to quantify how much extra it would cost a high-tax-bracket individual to defer their conversion taxes. I assumed a married couple living in New Jersey with no kids, earning $750,000 a year and with a sole itemized deduction of state income taxes. The hypothetical couple would be in the 35% federal marginal tax bracket and 9% New Jersey marginal tax bracket.
Converting $100,000 to a Roth IRA, the incremental federal and state taxes due -- if paid this year -- would be $40,831. If the couple instead deferred the conversion taxes over 2011-12, the total tax bill would be $46,206, primarily due to the top federal tax bracket increasing to 39.6% from 35% as the Bush tax cuts sunset next year. (A decision still at the mercy of the midterm elections.) If the couple does defer, they can of course invest the conversion taxes until they are due. Unfortunately the difference of $5,375 won't be easy to earn, as it would require the couple to make a return of 8.6% per year after tax to break even. I don't know about you, but I am not aware of any risk-free investments paying a rate of return anywhere near that level these days. The bottom line for people in the top tax bracket: Uncle Sam is offering you a loan with an interest rate far higher than what you are likely to earn on a risk-free basis. My advice for taxpayers in the highest tax bracket converting to Roth IRAs this year is to bite the bullet and pay the taxes now rather than later. >To submit a news tip, email: firstname.lastname@example.com TheStreet.com on Twitter and become a fan on Facebook.

Current Time
Concierge.com's insider take:
This grand turn-of-the-century hotel, set on the island of Ortygia, is arguably the best in Siracusa. In its heyday, the hotel was a social center for wealthy Italians who gathered for lavish balls, fashion shows, and film screenings. Today, both A-listers and regular folks come for the old-world charm and waterfront setting. The three-story building's impressive common areas are an elaborate mix of marble and hardwood, soaring pillars, and stained-glass domes, furnished with period antiques. The 58 modern rooms and suites seem a bit staid by comparison (although the deluxe suite has its own sea-view balcony and Jacuzzi tub). But there's a dazzling roof-garden restaurant, Terrazza sul Mare, with views overlooking the harbor. Guests have access to a private beach with shuttle service.
