Rain/Snow mix possible tonight and into Saturday morning
A disturbance will usher in a cold air mass for the weekend along with the chance for another rain/snow mix across parts of the region.
Tonight: Rain to Mix to Light Snow NW
Lows: 30s | Wind: Light
Saturday: Morning Mix to Snow, PM Snow Showers; Windy Late
Highs: Near 40 | Wind: NW 8-20+ m.p.h.
Sunday: Partly Sunny, Windy & Cold
Highs: Mid 30s | Wind: NW 10-20+ m.p.h.
Low pressure will pass south and east of our area tonight and tomorrow as an arctic cold front barrels through with gusty winds and falling temperatures. The effects of these two systems will be areas of rain tonight that will mix with and then change to snow before ending in the morning…then another batch of snow in the form of snow showers with the leading edge of arctic air during the afternoon. By the time skies begin to clear late tomorrow night, 1 to 2 inches of snow may accumulate in the advisory areas. Just a trace to light coating possible in other areas. Sunday will be sunny buy windy and very cold with highs just near or above 32 degrees. Temperatures will moderate once again beginning on Monday.

Great piece for powder room
Kerry from Sturtevant, WI – Verified Buyer
This piece was packed so well that you need to not worry about possible damage (that is something that I worry about when ordering online). I could not even find one scratch or imperfection. You could throw this off a mountain and still not damage it. Well, so much for the packaging... This item is an unbelievable piece of furniture- gorgeous!! Well-made and worth every penny. It is everything that was described and more. The vanity top is a little darker than the bowl but does work well together. As mentioned in the previous post, the drain that is included is decent, but the tailpipe for the bowl drain is a piece of garbage it does not thread on the drain enough to facilitate a tight seal and leaks-you cannot find a 1 14 pvc flange anywhere to replace this piece because they only make the part you need in 1 12 pvc. So spend $15-$20 on a new pop-up drain it will save you a day in traveling all over town searching for a part they don't make any more (I'm sure these parts came from overseas where they are probably still available and can be found easily in their local -but not around here). Please don't let this scare you!- this is an unbelievable piece that is well made and looks 10 times better than the picture. its truly an heirloom
Allie from Macomb, MI – Verified Buyer
I wanted a vessel sink in the bathroom we had installed in our basement remodel. All I saw had a white vessel sink no matter what color the countertop was. when i saw this i knew it was the one for me. It's beautiful. We put a bronze single mount faucet and it looks beautiful. Definately worth the price.

Cari from tinton falls, NJ – Verified Buyer
This little vanity packs a lot in a tiny space! The vessel sink is beautiful and wood is beautiful- make a super great statement with very little impact
bonnie from West Chester, PA – Verified Buyer
The product is as beautiful as its photos and it is ideal for a small space--style plus storage. Unfortunately, the stopper is screwed into a very cheaply constructed metal piece that simply does not hold up through installation. It cracked. ( Dont even think about getting that part replaced by the manufacturer after it cracks.) We found a sturdy metal replacement part (that doesnt quite work the same way) at a big box store for less than 5. One wonders why the manufacturer could not have made that small investment. (If you have hired someone to install it, though, factor in considerable additional expense for the labor. The rates in another state or region are surely different from those charged here.) Again, an attractive vanity whose mechanical parts are very poorly constructed and not at all durable for what might appear at first glance to be a reasonable price, but ultimately is not.
Galina from Forest Hills, NY – Verified Buyer
Simply beautiful and ellegant. Very richly looking vanity and very good looking top and sink.
great value for the $$$
Gary from Hauppauge, NY – Verified Buyer
great product, beautiful looks more expensive then it actually was. easy assembly
As promised
Robert from Monroe, NJ – Verified Buyer
Beautiful, quick delivery and good price. I would buy from Wayfair anytime.
Ellen from brentwood, CA – Verified Buyer
this vanity is just as beautiful as they say it is. the sink is beautiful

The flow of water into and out from the cell may play a crucial role in several types of cancer. Scientists at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, have now found the gate that regulates the flow of water into yeast cells. The discovery, which will be published in the journal PLoS Biology, raises hopes of developing a drug that inhibits the spread and growth of tumours.
All living organisms must be able to regulate the flow of water into and out from cells, in order to maintain cell form and size. This regulation is carried out by special proteins known as "aquaporins". These act as water channels and control the flow of water into and out from the cell.
Involved in cancer diseases
Aquaporins are found in most organisms, and are believed to be involved in several diseases, including cancer. Research on mice has shown that inhibiting the function of aquaporins can dramatically reduce the spread and growth of tumours.
Important for research
It is therefore extremely important for cancer research to increase our knowledge of aquaporins. Scientists at the University of Gothenburg have recently achieved a minor breakthrough in the field. Karin Lindkvist at the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology and Richard Neutze at the Department of Chemistry, University of Gothenburg have determined the three-dimensional structure of the yeast aquaporin. The results will be published in the journal PLoS Biology.
Highest resolution
The structure has been determined using X-ray crystallography and is the highest resolution structure that has been determined for a membrane protein. The unique high resolution has enabled the scientists to answer one of the unsolved mysteries of biology. The aquaporins in yeast have long "tails", known as amino-terminal extensions. The function of these tails has, until now, been unknown.
"Our study shows that the amino-terminal extensions in

FISHING boats in the North Sea bring up some strange things in their nets, from the bones of mammoths to ancient stone tools and weapons. Here and in many other places around the world, we are discovering the remains of human settlements on what is now the seabed. As the world changed after the last ice age, many of our ancestors were forced to abandon their homes. And over the next 1000 years, let alone 100,000, the world is going to change dramatically again, forcing billions of people to find a new place to live.
Some places would battle to survive even if sea level remained constant. The ancient Egyptian city of Herakleion disappeared beneath the Mediterranean Sea 2000 years ago as the soft sands of the delta it was built on subsided, and the same is happening to ...

His office decided to have a doggie mascot. It won't be the same dog all the time. Each Friday someone in the office will bring their dog. I started with week one. Mommy dropped me off about 11 this morning. She had me in my tie and ready to go. There aren't that many people at dad's office so it was nice getting to spend time with all of them.
Thanks for getting me out of the house, parents.

Thanks to FragranceX.com I found my favorite eau de toilette, after a year of looking for in several stores in town. The tracking of the order was very accurate, and I even received a e-mail with the exact date of the delivery. I also like to thank them to be a sponsor of "Music of Your Life" network that plays the best music ever recorded.

Comments about Yohji Yamamoto Perfume:
It is impossible to believe why this perfume is discontinued!?
Did I say I was speachless? Oh, you know me I love babbling about perfumes, but there isn´t likely my words can do this magic potion justice. Cause magic it is, it is unique and still I can smell a lot of similarities to many of my and my mom favourite perfumes in it, just to discover that they are gone and back again over and over again.
It could be a perfume for angels, if it was possible to make perfume from stardust and diamonds and the rainbow, maybe it would smell almost as good as Yohji!
This is absolutely my mom's No.1!!i wanted to make her feel happy with sniffing yohji!Unfortunatelly, it is almost "a mission impossible" to buy this fragrance for her.
pliiz Yamamoto could you launch this parfume again!the most unique frangrance!

Comments about Yohji Yamamoto Perfume:
I love this exotic fragrance. It always brings compliments--from both men and women.It is so unique that people stop me to ask what fragrance I am wearing. It has become my signature scent. The only problem is that i have purchased all there is in my area of texas--and three other large cities, also. I would love to have a regular supply.

Run faster over rockier ground.
Made for your morning run up mountain trails, the Salomon Men's XA Pro 3D Trail Running Shoe offers incredible durability, unbeatable traction, and cushioning so supple you'll have to look twice to believe you're on a scree field. An off-kilter asymmetrical Quicklace system takes the pressure off the top of your foot and lets you tighten the laces with a single tug. Quick drying and wickedly breathable, this husky trail shoe trounces trails and spits out unworthy bits of gravel as you get your mountain-goat on.
The mesh on top lets your foot breathe while providing a stalwart barrier against clods of hardened dirt. Sensifit and Endofit get a grasp on your foot and won't let go until you're loosening the laces with a beer within reach. Asymmetrical laces follow the natural contours of your paw and give your foot and ankle free range of motion. The 10mm drop protects heel strikers from brutish bits of boulder without forcing midfoot strikers to alter their gait. The 3D Advance Chassis system minimizes side-to-side rolling while smoothing the transition from footstrike to toe-off.
Even though the XA Pro keeps a low profile, the OrthoLite insert comes out and ample room remains if you choose to use a custom-molded insole. After one run, you'll become an EVA evangelical. Lightweight and soft, the EVA midsole mitigates your footstrike impact and offers a mere hint of stability. A protective toe cap lets you kick through piles of leaves without worry, and the Contagrip sole is downright greedy when it comes to grabbing the ground.

Well I wear them pretty much all day long. Seemed comfy at the first time. Walking and running is good. Later I noticed that during driving with these shoes on a car I feel little pain on one leg outside. I never ever that happened before on any of shoes. Size is mine for sure and other leg feels great. I would understand that that happens after longer walks or runs but not while I drive a car... Other than that they are great shoes.
Latest XA PRO 3D - Outstanding!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
This is my third pair of XA Pro 3D's. I work outdoors all day, every day. This has been my spring to fall shoe for the last four years and I can tell you that they do not disappoint! Fits perfectly to size. They are, however, a bit narrow. Something to keep in mind if you have a wide foot. I usually wear extra wide shoes and these, I usually have to break in (about 2 days) for them to stretch a little on the sides. This newest model also came with a redesigned tongue, which feels a lot more comfortable and is less bulky than the previous versions. All in all, great shoe. Comfortable and very versatile! I highly recommend it!

The only shoes I'll wear are Salomons. I've been a big fan of the XA Pro 3D Ultra 2 GTX for years. When it was time to retire my old ones I decided to give these a try. They aren't as easy to slip on and off as the Ultras, but they offer more support and comfort. The tongue is housed in an elastic cover, keeping everything snug and tight.

Comment and Suggestion
Modern Theatre pioneer Eugenio Barba presents his work in November
Led by legendary Modern Theatre director Eugenio Barba, Odin Teatret will debut in Hong Kong in late November. They will perform in three events, including a performance "Inside the Skeleton of the Whale", five work demonstrations and a lecture.
Odin Teatret is presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department.
"Inside the Skeleton of the Whale" will be staged from November 25 to 28 at 8pm at the Studio Theatre of the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Inspired by the story "Before the Law" by Franz Kafka, it tells of a man from the country who, out of subjection and obedience, does not dare to pass through the Door of the Law. The performance weaves metaphysical and nihilistic urges, subterranean plots and black apocryphal versions of the Holy Books.
It talks about the essence of rituality in theatre. The title refers to a verse of the Gospel according to Matthew: "Our evil and adulterous generation demands a sign. But no sign will be given to us, except for the sign of Jonas". The show does not have intermission and latecomers will not be admitted.
Five work demonstrations will be staged from November 24 to 28 at the Studio Theatre of the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Performed by the actors of the Odin Teatret, the works show their talents and ability trained by the theatre.
On November 24 at 8pm, "Traces in the Snow", performed by Roberta Carreri, displays the building of a character and the creation of a performance. "The Echo of Silence", performed by Julia Varley, will be staged on November 25 at 11am. It describes the vicissitudes of the voice of an actor and the stratagems of interpreting a text. On November 26 at 11am, "The Dead Brother", performed by Julia Varley, explains how performances are created at Odin Teatret and presents the different phases of the process in which text, actor and director interact. "The Paths of Thoughts", performed by Torgeir Wethal, will be held on November 27 at 11am. It illustrates the significance of improvisation in building a role. "The Whispering Winds", the last demonstration, will be held on November 28 at 11am. Performed by the Odin Teatret's ensemble, it demonstrates the difference between theatre and dance.
The lecture, conducted in English, will be held on November 28 at 3pm at the Lecture Hall of the Hong Kong Space Museum, Speaker Engenio Barba will talk about "The Reality behind the Fiction".
Eugenio Barba is one of the major innovators in 20th century theatre and a focus of contemporary experimental works. A theatre director and theorist in a class of his own, he has found a versatile tool in the Odin Teatret, exploring the possibilities of what he has called "the Third Theatre", a socially aware, exploratory, actor-oriented form of drama, distinct from that of commercial boulevard theatre on the one hand and director-dominated, dramatist-oriented art theatre on the other. He studied theatre directing at the State Theatre School in Poland, but left a year later to join Jerzy Grotowski, who at that time was the leader of Teatr 13 Rzedow in Opole.
Barba founded Odin Teatret in 1964, first in Oslo, then later found a base in Holsterbo, Denmark, where it became a centre for theatre research and a source for theatre training. From there its fame spread as a performing company. By charm, obsessiveness and ruthless dedication, he has made Odin one of the most famous institutions of contemporary theatre. During the past 36 years, he has directed 23 productions, some of which have required up to two years of preparation and have been performed throughout Europe.
Odin Teatret is well known for its education and training for actors that emphasise control of body and voice, and is the origin of experimental theatre. Odin began performing in villages and city outskirts in Europe and South America, developing new outdoor skills, including acrobatics and the grotesque which become part of their dramaturgy.
Tickets for "Inside the Skeleton of the Whale" are priced at $280, $180 and $100; "Traces in the snow" work demonstration is $150 and the rest are $100; "Lecture" priced at $120 are available for senior citizens, people with disabilities, full-time students and Comprehensive Social Security Assistance (CSSA) recipients (limited tickets for CSSA recipients available on a first-come, first-served basis). For purchases of full-price tickets, the following discounts apply: 4-9 tickets, 10%; 10-19 tickets, 15%; 20-39 tickets, 20%, 40 tickets or more 30%. For purchase of "Work Demonstrations" tickets, the following discounts apply: 10% for two or three different work demonstrationsand 20% for four or more different work demonstrations. A 10% discount is offered to Friends of LCSD performing venues.

If I ignore facts in your posts I apologise. But I think exactly this of you. Ignoring what doesn't fit your points of view.
But if yout told me numerous times why you didn't time your cam and I don't remember: can you help me and show me these posts? Of course they still are here. I don't post that much so they should be easy to find for you. Please do.

If for you it is still not clear, what they are, then behave accordingly. Like it was not clear. Not like your point of view was the only one worth thinking about. That's all I wanted.

Valve specs or cam specs, at least BMW gives a lift check point with their specs so you can actually use them. Those reported variations? Are the variations the cam or the rocker arms?
Now to your lift point. Working with Schleicher cams I never cared about. In fact you didn't yourself with the 336. I did learn a bit about that from you, that is true.
I described how I check that the cam is mounted in the correct position to the crank. I don't need a check point for that.
And I didn't care for more.
So stays your final statement (in the cam thread) that the check point is needed for checking the grind:
Believing that you can check the grind of a complex profile by measuring four points seems to me to be a very optimistic approach.
Do you believe you tought me the difference between valve or cam specs ? Sorry, but that is ridiculous.
Those reported variation? What do you mean by that? The variations in the measurement data?
Now, obviously you regard my posts as destructive. I would appreciate an open discussion about these topics. But open discussion means that differing opinions will be respected, if there are no facts.
And sorry but, the only facts in this thread came from me.

Longtime Whitworth Professor Publishes Collection of Thoughts on "Life in the Exit Lane"
In the first page of his new book, Reflections on Life in the Exit Lane, Whitworth Professor Emeritus of Biology Howard Stien quotes Psalm 90, which says, "Seventy years is the span of a life, eighty if our strength holds…We spend our years as a tale being told under the watchful eye of God…The hurrying years pass quickly and we are forgotten." Below the quotation, Stien writes, "Surely a bit of remembering won't hurt."
So begins this collection of Stien's memories and musings, which are at turns both solemn and humorous. In several sections of the book, Stien recalls his time spent as a teenager serving in the military during World War II. And in one passage, he lightheartedly refutes the notion that pioneer Norwegian immigrants baptized their children in coffee.
The idea behind Reflections on Life in the Exit Lane was born from a resolution Stien made on his 80th birthday, to mark each day with a brief entry about a noteworthy event that had occurred on that day in any given year of his life. At the encouragement of his wife and family, Stien decided to publish his anthology.
"The book is a collection of short, daily blurbs musing about significant days, present and past, among a 29,200 accumulation of days in 80 years of orbiting the sun," Stien says. "It begins last century at the twilight of the horse and buggy days and spans eight decades of life with four generations – at home, at war, on the farm, in church, at university, mastering retirement, and the delightful six-decade journey with Pat, my wife."
Stien says he uses the phrase "exit lane" to denote the intellectual and emotional context in which the recollections of a long, happy, productive life were written.
Bonnie Robinson, wife of Whitworth President Bill Robinson, says, "I learned a lot about Howard and Whitworth through reading this book. I'm thankful for his wonderful insights and deep reflections, and for his reminders about what is most important in life."
Janna Nicholson, program coordinator for institutional advancement at Whitworth, says, "Reading through the passages, I found that I could easily place myself in the many relationships of Howard's life. Our collective human experience is not all that different – similar things happen to each one of us, albeit perhaps in different settings."
Stien began teaching at Whitworth in September 1965 as chairman of the biology department. After retiring in 1993, he served as a sabbatical replacement at Whitworth in 1996-97. His wife, Pat, is a Whitworth professor emeritus of theatre.
Prior to Reflections on Life in the Exit Lane, Stien has written The Improbable Professor (2003), a humorous look at the professoriate, and Stump House Stories (2001), a children's book based upon stories he told his grandchildren that were set in the stump house he built for them.
In addition, he has written two sets of children's stories based on his grandchildren, The Zach Tales and Who's Buggin' Abbie?
Reflections on Life in the Exit Lane was published in 2008 by Stump House Books, the publishing company Stien and his wife formed in 2001.
The book can be purchased at the Whitworth University bookstore at (509) 777-3277 or by contacting the author at (509) 466-5449 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Though he pauses to reflect on a long, event-filled life in his new book, Stien shows no sign of slowing down, especially where writing is concerned. He has two projects in the works, including a novel titled Dagmar and the Sons of Ole, which will be loosely based on the lives of Stien and his four brothers and their Scandinavian immigrant parents.
Located in Spokane, Wash., Whitworth is a private, liberal arts university affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA). The university, which has an enrollment of 2,600 students, offers 53 undergraduate and graduate degree programs.
Howard Stien, (509) 466-5449 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

For all of you smokey bears out there I will be installing a spark arrestor in the near future. but overall it woke the bike up a bit and the EFI system seems to cope with it quite well. I want to modd the air box but not sure if I should wait to get a power commander before I go messing around too much
. let me know what you gents think
oh yeah, and I can actually hear the bike at speed so I know what my RPMs are aroundabout.
I kept the stock baffle and just cut off the spark arrester but kept the pip long enough to still go into the back baffled plate in the muffler. It really gave the exhaust a nice sound without beig too loud, which is all I was looking for temporarily. And regarding the smokey the bear folks, I dont think any sparks will be able to get past that catalytic converter. Once a decent slip on is available I will be ditching the stock anchor and buying one. I also have talked to bazzaz and they plan on making a programmer for our bikes soon. All they have to do is change the wire lengths on their existing cbr250 programmer and make a new specific map for our bikes.

Fort Washington house fire injures one
June 10, 2012 - 12:01 pm
Decrease Increase Text size
Fire investigators in Fort Washington believe a Sunday morning house fire was accidental.
Crews were called to the 9300 block of Old Palmer Road just before 3 a.m.
A resident of the home, a man in his 60s, was injured in the fire, receiving minor burns while exiting the home. He is listed in good condition at an area hospital.
Fire officials say damages to the home and the victim's belongings are estimated at $200,000.

Chief Financial Officer Leon Glaster wasn't at tonight's school board meeting. He won't be around the district's administrative offices as often as he used to be, either. That's because he came out of retirement to work for OUSD — and as a retiree, he's not permitted to work full-time for more than a year, Interim Superintendent Roberta Mayor explained at the meeting.
(Last October, the state administrator approved a two-year contract for Glaster that expired after September 2009. That contract now has "void" stamped across the top.)
Instead, Glaster has been hired as a consultant. He'll work three weeks out of the month, at least until the school district hires a permanent chief business officer, and will help his replacement make the transition, Mayor said.
The problem is, OUSD hasn't found a replacement.
I imagine it would take an adventurous spirit to take on the district's fiscal matters at a time of steep enrollment declines, contract negotiations and uncertain state funding. Hopefully for OUSD, someone with smarts, know-how and dedication will submit their resume soon.
Anyone know a good candidate?

CREATE_R85_DATABASES enables ODS 51
It seems it is only after I added this notes.ini-setting also on my client machine that new databases get the ODS51-foirmat. Is this correct? Or is it by design that it takes a certain number of minutes before the server reads the notes.ini-setting on the server?
Is '-c' the only compact option that will trigger the ODS upgrade?
We don't use the -c option in any of our scheduled compactions.
found reason for crash
Found out in the meantime that crash not occurs when editing notes.ini with notepad instead of a profesional edit. Maybe a codepage problem ?(editor converts text file on opening)
Setting crashes Client 8.5 on Vist64 ..
and forces new installation. The error message is " You can not run Client an Server ....."
Yes, the D8.5 ODS is 51
Yes, there had been a beta with ODS 50.
The body of the main post has been updated.
ODS 51 as of Beta2
Maybe it was 50 for Beta1?
ODS 50 or 51
Both ODS 50 and 51 are mentioned in the text. Which is correct ?

Chloe Bennet loves Benedict Cumberbatch because of 'Sherlock'Add to Favorites | Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
After Chloe Bennet met Jimmy Kimmel -- her long-standing No. 2 celebrity crush -- on his talk show "Jimmy Kimmel Live," he came close to ousting her No. 1 celeb crush, Benedict Cumberbatch, from the top spot. But despite their adorable interview, Bennet says Cumberbatch still reigns supreme.
While talking with Zap2it during a recent visit to the "Marvel's Agents of SHIELD" set, Bennet reveals that she's obsessed with Cumberbatch for the same reason the rest of us are: "Sherlock."
"I love 'Sherlock,'" she admits. "I actually first saw him in 'Star Trek [Into Darkness],' and I said, 'Who is this voice?' And then I watched 'Sherlock' and then I was just done. Game over."
At this point, Cumberbatch seems like he could be only a few year away from joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He's all the rage in Hollywood right now, and Bennet quips, "He'll come."
It turns out Bennet has already met Cumberbatch in real life -- well, sort of. She came about as close to him as she had to Kimmel before actually appearing on the latter's talk show.
"I was dancing next to him at the Golden Globes," Bennet says of Cumberbatch. The situation is very similar to one Bennet previously described of Kimmel, and she admits, "I like to be a creep. Yeah, I'm a bit of a weirdo. I just get very excited and then I don't actually want to [say hi]. Because sometimes, what if they're a letdown, you know? You have this idea of them in your mind and you don't want to get let down."
At least Kimmel passed her expectations. "He's awesome. He's great. I love him even more now," Bennet admits. "He might have been bumped up to my No. 1 celebrity crush after [the interview]."
Bennet returns as Skye on "Marvel's Agents of SHIELD" in episode 13, "TRACKS," which airs on ABC on Feb. 4 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

Peace and Disarmament
SGI Events Commemorate Josei Toda's Antinuclear Declaration
SGI organizations around the world have been calling for nuclear abolition in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda's Declaration Calling for the Abolition of Nuclear Weapons which was delivered in front of 50,000 young people at the Mitsuzawa stadium in Yokohama, Japan, on September 8, 1957, marking the start of Soka Gakkai's activities to promote peace.
On September 8, 2007, in New York City, 200 people joined a Civil Society Forum, "Abolishing Nuclear Weapons: What Can Each Of Us Do?" at the Cooper Union, cosponsored by SGI, Global Action to Prevent War and the World Federation of United Nations Associations. The panel of young speakers from organizations working for nuclear disarmament was chaired by Kathleen Sullivan, disarmament education consultant to the United Nations.
In his message to the forum, SGI President Daisaku Ikeda stressed, "It was human beings who gave rise to nuclear weapons. It cannot therefore be beyond the power of human wisdom to eliminate them." He called for a wave of dialogue toward abolition led by young people. Panelists echoed the need to engage people at the grassroots more widely.
The new global SGI antinuclear exhibition, "From a Culture of Violence to a Culture of Peace: Transforming the Human Spirit" was also on display. It includes sections on "Arms-based Security vs. Human Security" and "Changing Our Worldview," and facts on global efforts to control and eliminate nuclear weapons.
The exhibition was first shown at the New Zealand Parliament's "Beehive" building in Wellington on August 9, hosted by SGI-New Zealand and the New Zealand Institute of International Affairs with support from the Peace Foundation, the New Zealand United Nations Association, the New Zealand Council for International Development and the Wellington Interfaith Council. Dr Anwarul K. Chowdhury, until recently UN Under-Secretary General, and champion of a global culture of peace, spoke at the launch which was attended by several members of parliament.
Malaysian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dato Seri Syed Hamid bin Syed Jaafar Albar, opened the exhibition on September 2, at the Soka Gakkai Malaysia (SGM) Wisma Kebudayaan in Kuala Lumpur. The showing was cosponsored by SGM and Physicians for Peace and Social Responsibility (PPSR), an affiliate of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War (IPPNW).
World Youth Peace Declaration
Also on September 8, 300 youth members of SGI from 56 countries gathered for a peace conference in Yokohama where an SGI World Youth Peace Declaration was adopted. This includes a vow to work for nuclear disarmament and create a culture of peace as well as commitment to wide-ranging dialogue and cooperation with people of other faiths.
In Tokyo, the Soka Gakkai Women's Peace Committee hosted a "Culture of Peace Forum for Mothers and Children" on September 9 with 1,200 participants, from elementary school children to survivors of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. Singer and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador for Japan Agnes Chan performed and told the audience about children at risk from depleted uranium in Iraq following her recent visit there.
SGI-Denmark hosted a youth meeting in Copenhagen on September 8 at which John Scales Avery, chair of the Danish Committee of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, stressed that the vast majority of the world's people have said "no" to nuclear weapons, and at SGI-UK's South London National Centre in Brixton, a multimedia exhibition "LIFE--truth, justice, dignity" calling for nuclear abolition was opened by Prof. Robert Hinde, chair of Pugwash UK.
[Adapted from an article in the October 2007 issue of the SGI Quarterly compiling various SGI reports and articles published in the Seikyo Shimbun, Soka Gakkai, Japan.]

Fort Washakie
Fort Washakie (1871-1909) - Established as a relocated Camp Brown (2) in 1871 by Captain Robert A. Torrey, 1st U.S. Infantry, in the present day town of Fort Washakie, Fremont County, Wyoming. Renamed Fort Washakie 30 Dec 1878 after Shoshone Chief Washakie, father-in-law of Jim Bridger. The chief resided at Fort Washakie until his death in 1900. Permanently abandoned by the U.S. Army in 1909. Became the headquarters of the Shoshoni Indian Agency in 1913.
Fort Washakie History
Established to protect the Shoshone and Bannock Indian Reservation against hostile Indian enemies of these two tribes. Relocated from Lander in Jan 1871 by Captain Robert A. Torrey, 1st U.S. Infantry. Originally built of wood and adobe, the post was rebuilt later in the 1870's with stone buildings.
Permanently abandoned by the U.S. Army on 30 Mar 1909 and became the headquarters of the Shoshoni Indian Agency in 1913.
Current Status
Part of the Headquarters of the Wind River Shoshoni Indian Agency. Some military buildings remain although they are not identified as such. Building 1 is recognizable from HABS documentation as the old post chapel and library but it is roofless and mostly destroyed by a fire. Other buildings are clearly of military origins and there are others that could be.
Location: In the town of Fort Washakie, Fremont County, Wyoming.

Hopeless romantics get set, Spring 2012 is your time to shine! From frothy pastels and delicate florals to the seductive glamour of the jazz era- spring ushers in a fresh crop of designer handbags that you just can't be seen without. We're breaking down the hottest handbag trends that will carry YOU through Spring/Summer 2012. Pick one, pick all but most of all enjoy being a girl this season.
Head to toe pastel is the look du jour this season from Louis Vuitton to Philip Lim. So it's no surprise that candy colored fashion confections are everywhere this spring. A pastel handbag pairs well with other pastel shades and of course, head-to-toe white. Louis Vuitton offers their quilted monogram shoulder bags in an array of colors found in a box of Laduree macaroons for spring. Prada and Marc Jacobs updated their classic bags in a ladylike blush hue that will still be chic well after the pastel craze is over.
Animal Print
Get in touch with your wild side and rock a fabulous animal printed handbag this season. Be it cheetah, zebra or giraffe a Serengeti inspired handbag is definitely a must have for the lipstick jungle also known as Delhi. Pair your feisty bag with everything from jeans to a sheath for fun and flirty look that is undeniably sexy. Our favorites include Mulberry's Harriet bag which is structured and just the right size for a day bag. Jimmy Choo's Gwen bag is the perfect date night bag while Kate Spade's black and white take on cheetah print is utterly posh.
One of the pleasures of Summer is wearing white however this can get boring and the best way to break up a monochromatic look is with a beautiful floral printed handbag which just screams spring. The key here is to look for sophisticated floral prints that are large in scale rather than a tiny repeating floral pattern. We love this floral print handbag by TOUS, which is sophisticated but still fun and flirty. Miu Miu is also joining in on the floral trend with a whimsical touch as always by creating floral patterns with glamourous Swarovski crystals.
The entire report with even more trends will be featured on my new fashion column for SAPNA magazine. Stay Tuned! -MIMI

Of all human activities, creativity comes closest to providing the fulfillment we all hope to get in our lives. Call it full-blast living. Creativity is a central source of meaning in our lives. Most of the things that are interesting, important, and human are the result of creativity. What makes us different from apes--our language, values, artistic expression, scientific understanding, and technology--is the result of individual ingenuity that was recognised, rewarded, and transmitted through learning.You've got to love the man, I'm sure he'd be against speculative work and 6-way creative pitches. The list itself is delightful on its own, and will feel intuitively familiar to anyone who has an appreciation for creativity and creative people. An interesting thing, is that while going through the list you discover that the principles apply not just to creative individuals, but also to innovation and to creative companies and organisations. So here are Csikszentmihalyi's Ten paradoxical traits of the creative personality, translated to the the traits of creative companies. 1. Creative people have a great deal of physical energy, but they're also often quiet and at rest. Creative companies balance a great capacity for doing and action with time for focus, reflection and a healthy work-life balance. 2. Creative people tend to be smart yet naive at the same time. Creative companies retain a sense of wonder and innocence. This allows them to attempt the impossible even when "they should know better". It sometimes results in great breakthroughs. 3. Creative people combine playfulness and discipline, or responsibility and irresponsibility. Creative companies realise fun and experimentation are just as important to the bottom line as budgets, KPI's and deadlines. However, when most companies think of creativity, they only think of the fun part, the truly creative appreciate all the work involved in making the idea a reality. 4. Creative people alternate between imagination and fantasy, and a rooted sense of reality. Creative companies continually imagine, reinvent and plan their future, but they also acknowledge that "A goal is a dream with a deadline" and that "Vision without action is an hallucination". 5. Creative people trend to be both extroverted and introverted. Creative companies look outside as well as inside. They tell stories and look for the limelight, but are also great listeners and willing to learn from anyone (and anything). 6. Creative people are humble and proud at the same time. Creative companies know their self-worth and don't shy away from tooting their own horns, but they also keep their eye on the next challenge and know that their status should be continually justified. They acknowledge their debt to those who came before them, while not afraid to carry out their own vision. 7. Creative people, to an extent, escape rigid gender role stereotyping. Creative companies actively seek a healthy gender balance - both in term of staff mix and cultural style. 8. Creative people are both rebellious and conservative. Most organisations will be either rebellious or conservative, but truly creative companies stay loyal to their values while challenging and often revolutionising their markets. A deep understanding of your business, requires you to be immersed in its history, principles and mechanics. And then you have to challenge them - a rare quality. 9. Most creative people are very passionate about their work, yet they can be extremely objective about it as well. In a creative company, people passionately defend their work and are expected to do that, but they are not ashamed to step down or make changes when someone has a better idea, because creative companies are "all about the work", so when the work can be improved, there's no reason for conflict. 10. Creative people's openness and sensitivity often exposes them to suffering and pain, yet also to a great deal of enjoyment. Creative companies can be a bit of an emotional roller-coaster, but have the biggest potential to provide fulfilling work experiences (and, in turn, great customer experiences). In creative companies people are not afraid to be themselves, allowing themselves to show vulnerability (for more about the importance of vulnerability to creativity and happiness, see Brené Brown's smash hit TED talk.) Being at forefront of your business will expose you to a lot of criticism, unless you can handle it, your creativity will be squashed very early. In a truly creative company, the thought that things can be better and you're not aspiring to make them so is unbearable. This requires a certain sensitivity. Companies with a culture of compromise, rarely exhibit creative breakthroughs. These are but initial analogies? What do you think?
2 thoughts on "The 10 habits of highly creative people, applied to creative companies"
Love the way you've taken Csikszentmihalyi's work on creativity and applied it to companies: it makes a lot of sense. I was particularly struck by the idea of a creative company needing to combine energy and rest/focus. I think too many companies get stuck in a mad rush for innovation, which can seem to become a goal unto itself. Focus keeps it balanced: is it on strategy? Has one given an idea enough time to develop fully? Is it worth doing? Does it add something to the firm/the world? Also, rest – either literal, physical rest or a break from something – helps to give us the objectivity we need to balance our passion.
That's so true.
Thanks for this comment.
As a bonus aside, just for you – have a look at his "flow" model and ask yourself in which "territory" the financial crisis is putting the average person. :-/

This issue is similar in rarity to the proof 1881, especially in the higher levels of preservation. Both major grading services have seen only two examples of the 1882 delivery in PR 66, and there are none finer (11/00). Crisply defined throughout, both sides of this coin display original orange-gold color. Deeper green-gold accents are also noted in the fields as the coin rotates beneath a light. The obverse is uniformly brilliant, but the finish on the reverse has resulted in a modest cameo contrast. A virtually flawless Gem, this coin adequately complements the rare 1875 and 1876 proof three dollar gold pieces that we are also offering in this sale.

Wayne's worlds
Wayne Mardle has his say on the draft drama and previews the World Darts Championship final.
By Paul Higham Twitter: @SkySportsPaulH
Last Updated: 02/01/12 2:32pm
Wayne Mardle says that this year's World Darts Championship has been the best one ever, and hopes that the final between Adrian Lewis and Andy Hamilton lives up to the drama of the rest of the event.
Sunday's semi-finals had everything, with a thrilling marathon battle between Hamilton and Simon Whitlock before some drama with a rogue breeze followed by an almighty comeback from Lewis against James Wade.
Wayne Mardle was present as part of the Sky Sports commentary team during the unique wind drama, as Wade and Lewis left the stage twice due to the breeze blowing across the oche.
Wade was 2-0 up, then 5-1 in front and cruising before missing a dart for the match and then watching as 'Jackpot' Lewis came storming back to book his place in the final again, 12 months after lifting the title for the first time.
"It's very unusual for an indoor sport like darts to be affected by wind - supposedly both players were very unhappy and said the breeze was too much to contend with and left the stage," Mardle said on Sky Sports News radio.
"It got sorted out in the end but personally if I was James wade I would have carried on as he was 2-0 up at the time.
"I was in the commentary box and Lewis looked a beaten man at 5-1 down his body language saying I just want to get off this stage. But for some inexplicable reason Wade went off the boil and gave Lewis the hope he needed.
"I've lost five World semi-finals myself but I've never had a dart to get through to the final. Wade's won many majors but never quite performed in the World Championship and that will grind on him for quite a while - what it does to him mentally I really don't know."
Defending champion Lewis now plays fellow Stoke thrower Andy Hamilton in the final to try and retain his title, and after so many shocks in the tournament Mardle hopes the final can live up to it.
"It's got better and better. It's been so special all the way through you just want it to continue - it's set up for a brilliant final and I hope they can deliver all that they've delivered all the way through. I'm going to go for 7-4 to Adrian just because he's been there and done it.
"It's the best tournament I've ever seen, there's no doubt about it, I just think the standard now is amazing, we haven't seen so many 100 averages but we've seen so many more close quality games and that's testament to the PDC for putting on the tour events throughout the year and bringing through these good young players.
"The coming years on Sky Sports are going to be a joy because these young players will be coming through and showing what they can do."
Phil Taylor will not add to his 15 world titles this year after being knocked out by Dave Chisnall, but Mardle warned against writing the great man off.
"Never, ever, ever write off Phil Taylor. "People have done it before. I've always been a Phil Taylor fan which is probably why he gets the better of me all the time.
"But I still think he's by far the best player in the world, he's the best player the world has ever seen. Don't write him off because he will come back and he will win more world titles."
