Configuring Worker Process Identities
Updated: August 22, 2005
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1
In previous versions of IIS, the worker processes ran as the LocalSystem account. Because the LocalSystem account has access to almost all resources on the operating system, this had serious security implications. IIS 6.0 offers better security in that the worker process runs under the new built-in Network Service account by default. IIS 6.0 also allows you to configure which account worker processes run as. You have the option of using one of the three predefined accounts, or creating your own account.
This section includes the following information:
Configuring a Worker Process Identity Using a Predefined Account: Describes how to specify a predefined account as the worker process identity of an application pool.
Configuring a Worker Process Identity Using a Configurable Account: Describes how to create a new account as the worker process identity of an application pool.
Configuring Applications to Run Independently of Each Other: Describes how to isolate applications by configuring them in separate application pools that run with different worker process identities.

Nanoscale Catalytic Materials for Sulfur Removal from Fossil Fuels
February, 2008
Understanding and optimizing the properties solid state materials plays a key role in a number of important technologies, including those in energy-related science and engineering. As crude oil prices approach $100/barrel, the need for careful utilization of fossil fuel resources has been heightened. A number of factors influence the price of crude oil, including a long-term concern that sources of conventional crude oil are being substantially depleted. Reflecting the depletion of crude oil reserves, a growing fraction of crude oil imports into the U.S. is synthetic crude derived from Canadian oil sands. There are significantly higher sulfur and nitrogen impurity levels in crude oil derived from the oil sands than in Arabian crude oils. The high impurity levels in heavy and unconventional crude oils present major challenges to the petroleum industry at a time that environmental regulations in the United States, Japan and in many western European countries are dramatically lowering allowable sulfur levels in transportation fuels.
Research in Professor Bussell's laboratory focuses on the development of new catalytic materials for the removal of S impurities from fossil fuels via the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) process. While the catalysts currently used in industry are based on metal sulfides (e.g. MoS2), work in the Bussell laboratory focuses on the development of a new generation of catalysts based on metal phosphides (e.g. Ni2P). Nanoscale metal phosphide particles are deposited on a high surface area silica support using conventional catalysis preparation and cutting-edge nanosynthesis methods, the latter via collaboration with Prof. Stephanie Brock of Wayne State University. As shown in the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images below, the conventional preparation method yields a range of Ni2P particle sizes (dark blobs) while the nanoscience preparation yields nearly monodisperse Ni2P particles of 10.2 nm diameter. Initial HDS activity measurements show the Ni2P nanoparticle catalyst to be nearly as active as a highly optimized, conventionally prepared catalyst. This collaborative project, which as already yielded one research article published in Advanced Functional Materials, is now focusing on probing the relationship between metal phosphide particle size, shape and composition and HDS activity.

Aaron Baker has come over to the Orioles from the Pittsburgh Pirates in return for Derrek Lee and will be assigned to Frederick. He is a former Oklahoma State Cowboy and a 2009, 11th round draft pick by Pittsburgh.
Baker is a a broad shouldered Texan that looks more like a football player than baseball player, as he is a former catcher. He stands out for his raw power and solid defensive abilities at first base.
He needs to maintain contact and improve his plate discipline in order to advance against higher level pitchers. If he gets hold of a pitch, he can mash it out of most minor league stadiums. He has the typical power hitter lag between the hips/torso ratio, helping to produce that torque power into the swing.
Baker tends to gear up a bit too much with the hands and leaves himself with an elongated swing through the zone. This is not an issue with the bat speed at this stage, but as he advances through the system pitchers may expose this issue. He will have to keep his hands closer to the starting point and compact his swing in order to remain at least an average contact hitter.
In the field, Baker seems very fluid for someone his size and his strong arm would make me tinker with the thought of giving him a shot at 3B to increase his value.
Overall, he is a true power threat on the corner. If he can improve his approach and maintain the contact skills, he could be inline as an everyday player. Although, if he can't correct the long swing there's a strong chance he turns into an organizational player.

In Focus: Mohit Suri working on Aashiqui 2 with an injured arm!
Newlywed director Mohit Suri seems to be showering all the attention on his baby – no, not wifey Udita Goswami, but his film Aashiqui 2. So much so, that after being discharged from hospital with a hand injury, the young filmmaker went to work immediately to finish the post-pro of his movie in time for its May 2013 release. Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who is Mohit's uncle, tweeted the picture today, saying, "Aashiqui: 2: An obsessed Mohit Suri heads straight into the editing room after being discharged from the hospital." Aashiqui 2 actors Aditya Roy Kapur, Shraddha Kapoor and Shaad Randhawa should thank Mohit for his dedication! | ALSO READ: Mohit Suri dances with his grandma on his wedding day!

Sygyt Software was founded in 2003 by Bodo Maass and Wolfgang Saus to explore the creation of tools that help people to become better musicians and to realize the full potential of their voice. "Sygyt" is the tuvan word for a specific throat singing technique that creates a very strong, high pitched overtone sound. The name represents the company's origin in overtone singing.
Bodo Maass
Bodo Maass is the founder and main software developer of Sygyt Software. He first began programming at the age of 11. After studying Cognitive Science (Psychology and Philosophy) at the University of Oxford, he worked on voice based human-machine interfaces for a company called MicroStrategy in Washington D.C. He subsequently returned to Oxford to become the first employee of the newly founded company NaturalMotion, where he was the lead developer for NaturalMotion's award winning 3D animation software "endorphin", a commercial product to synthesize human movement based on artificial intelligence research.
He discovered Overtone Singing in 1994 and immediately wanted to learn this seemingly impossible art of singing two melodies at the same time. He and his teacher in this method, Wolfgang Saus, talked about the lack of good software to assist teaching overtone singers, and thus "Overtone Analyzer" was born. Based on this he later developed a new generation of the software "VoceVista" together with the voice scientist Don Miller.
Wolfgang Saus
Originally trained in Germany as a scientist as well as a classical singer, Wolfgang Saus has gained a profound understanding of overtone singing, both as a performer and a teacher. His unique combination of a scientific intellect and over 20 years experience as a singer enables him to make overtones accessible to many people by explaining them in simple, intuitive terms. Saus has become one of the leading overtone singers in Europe, and has taught hundreds of students individually and through workshops. He is also an expert in improving the intonation of a choir by training the singers to listen to their overtones.
Overtone Analyzer is the consequent application of his knowledge to the medium of software, which allows the visualization and exploration of voice and sound in an interactive way.

It's been quite some time since we've seen Shahid Kapoor in complete action. His last flick 'Teri Meri Kahaani' was a romantic emotional journey with Priyanka Chopra and was just an above average hit compared to the superhits like the rusty 'Kaminey' and the romantic comedy 'Jab We Met' that Shahid is best known for and that have established his stature in Bollywood. Even his fans feel that they would like to see more of him on screen. Fortunately this message from his fans and well-wishers has been conveyed to him and the once 'unemployed' Shahid is now looking for work and has already grabbed a few projects to his kitty.
The current buzz is that Shahid has been signed to star in 'Phata Poster Nikla Hero', a masala entertainer to be directed by Rajkumar Santoshi who has hits like 'Andaaz Apna Apna' and 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahaani' to his credit. The movie shall be produced by Ramesh Taurani's Tips Films.
Mr. Taurani said to the media,"We have finalised Shahid Kapoor as the hero for the film to be directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. We felt he fit the bill for this role. It was for about six months when we were discussing this project with him. The film is tentatively titled 'Phata Poster Nikla Hero". Talking about the theme of the movie, he added,"This film is a full fledged masala entertainer with elements of romance and action. It is an original story and not a remake".
Well Mr. Taurani we do hope that it's an original only for a Bollywood copy of a Hollywood movie is a complete turn off for the loyal fans of the Hindi film industry.
When asked about the Bollywood actress who would star opposite Shahid, Mr. Taurani said,"All I can is we will go with a fresh pairing. I think in about a week or so we should be able to finalise things". Seems like the leading lady is yet to be decided upon.
However, there's a slight twist to what Mr. Ramesh Taurani has been saying to the media because when Shahid was contacted for comments on the same, his response was,"Me and Raj have met, but I haven't signed the film as of now". The actor also told the media about his other projects which supposedly have been officially finalized. He said,"There are three films which I have signed. One is with Maneesh Sharma which I start in August and finish by November. There's a film with Prabhu Deva, which will start at some point next year around February because he is doing another film right now. And there is a film with Bejoy Nambiar which will also start next year". Further adding, Shahid said,"There are various other films that I have been considering because I have decided to do more work because I have been told that I work very little and I feel it myself too. I have not kind of had anything in the last four months".
Well Shahid we do wish you all the very best with your new endeavor and hope to see more of your movies making appearance on the silver screen.

Kitchens Bustle with Efficient Lighting Opportunities
The kitchen is more than just a place to cook and eat. It often serves as the administrative and the social center of the home. Because it opens for business before dawn and closes long after sunset, the kitchen uses a lot of energy for lighting. That makes this room an important place to use efficient lighting. In a new kitchen or a remodel, you have the perfect opportunity to create a highly efficient lighting system.
In their 1994 trend survey, the National Kitchen and Bath Association reported that typical incandescent lights were used in 62 percent of the kitchen jobs. Fluorescents were used in only 45 percent. This indicates ample opportunity to use more fluorescents in kitchen projects. Currently, fluorescent lights are the most efficient source of light suitable for residential use. Full-size fluorescent lamps, often called "tubes," convert electricity to light with four times greater efficiency than typical incandescent lamps.
Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) are two to three times more efficient than incandescents. Their smaller size makes them easier to fit in places normally occupied by incandescents. Recently, manufacturers have introduced 35- to 40-watt CFLs with light output similar to a 150-watt incandescent.
Fluorescent lamps need a ballast to provide the proper electrical input. Electronic ballasts use less energy than magnetic ballasts. They also operate at a higher frequency which eliminates the flicker and hum sometimes associated with fluorescents. Electronic ballasts have been known to emit radio frequency waves that interfere with electronic devices such as telephones and televisions.
Long Life
Incandescent lamps burn for only about 1,000 hours and halogens last between 2,000 and 3,000 hours. Compare that to CFLs, which last 8,000 to 10,000 hours and full-size fluorescent lamps at about 20,000 hours. Fluorescents' long service life makes them a good choice for locations where replacing expired lamps is inconvenient or even dangerous. Longer life and energy savings are good reasons to use fluorescent lights whenever appropriate.
Long ago fluorescents had a reputation for providing poor quality light. That changed roughly 10 years ago when lamps with improved color characteristics became widely available. You can easily avoid the color pitfall by paying attention to two numbers. The first is color temperature, expressed in degrees Kelvin (K). Most people associate indoor light with the "warm" look of incandescent lamps at 3000K or below. Fluorescents for indoor use should have a color temperature of 3500K or less. The second number is the Color Rendering Index (CRI), which indicates how accurately the light displays colors. Always select lamps with a CRI above 80. Since each manufacturer has a different designation for color properties, it may be difficult for you to tell by looking at the packaging. However, the manufacturer's product literature will often provides the information. All manufacturers of fluorescent lamps supply products with good color characteristics. However, you can't always find these products in retail home centers.
Efficient lighting starts with good design. Begin with task lighting for countertops and other work areas. Then think about general background light.
Put Light on Task Areas
Full-size fluorescents can be mounted under cabinets so the light shines directly on the counters. The long lamps spread light evenly across the work area. However, fluorescents can't concentrate light on a small spot. Specially designed under cabinet fixtures may be flat, but they need a bit more room than cabinets typically provide. The cabinet maker can accommodate this extra thickness by making the face frame an inch or two wider at the bottom. T-8 lamps have a narrower profile that fits more readily behind the cabinets face frame, although you may still need to ask for cabinet adjustments. For very tight spaces, look into fixtures that use T-5 lamps. Unfortunately, these are not available with a high CRI. Almost every kitchen has a light over the sink. This is the perfect application for a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL). If buying a new fixture, choose one made specifically for a CFL.
Recessed lights above counters can also provide good task light. If you install recessed lights in an insulated ceiling, you should take care to avoid the perils described below.
General Background Light
With all the task lighting in kitchens, a general background light may not be needed. For example, well placed recessed lights over the counters may provide ample general light. On the other hand, fluorescent lights mounted under the cabinets may leave the kitchen in need of more general light. If installed, the general light should use a fluorescent lamp and have a separate switch. It could be a surface-mounted fixture, a "cove" light mounted on top of the cabinets or a luminous ceiling.
Only 10 percent of the electricity that enters an incandescent lamp comes out as light. The rest is heat that must often be removed with air conditioning. Because they are so inefficient, incandescents should be used primarily for accent light, task light or dimming circuits where fluorescents are too expensive.
Although up to 30 percent more efficient than other incandescents, halogen lamps are still less efficient than fluorescents. Their main advantage is a crisp white light and better control of the light beam. Halogen PAR lamps and the low voltage MR16 lamps are the perfect choice when you need to direct light to a certain spot for accent or task lighting.
Lighting Controls
Imagine that you had only one light switch for the whole house. That would force you to use too much light in the wrong places. Good lighting controls allow you to put the right amount of light in the right places.
Dimmer switches reduce light output and energy use. As a practical matter, dimming circuits use incandescent lamps. Halogen lamps can be a good choice, because they are more efficient than other incandescent lamps. Dimmers are available for some full-size and compact fluorescents, too. However, the ballasts and controls are too expensive for most residential applications.
Motion sensors, also known as occupant sensors, are appropriate where people move in and out, but may not stay long. Closets, pantries and bathrooms are examples. Incandescent lamps work well with motion sensors. On the other hand, this kind of use will shorten the life of fluorescent lamps and ballasts.
Even simple on/off switches can help save energy if fixtures are divided into separately switched task areas. For example, the counter, island, range and sink should each have a separate switch. Identify one of these as a night light that will burn throughout the evening. An undercabinet fluorescent near the sink might work well for this.
Three Key Points
Kitchen lighting offers many opportunities for improving efficiency. There are three key points to remember: Design the lighting scheme for best results. Select the appropriate high-efficiency lamps and fixtures. Control the lights properly so they can be used efficiently.
Avoid Perils of Recessed Downlights
Recessed downlights are popular in kitchens because of their relatively unobtrusive appearance. Typical recessed fixtures create a large hole in the ceiling and allow a significant amount of air to pass from the room into the space above ceiling. If this is an insulated ceiling, trouble could be brewing. The first problem is heat loss carried by the air escaping from the kitchen. A second problem is a hitchhiker that goes along for the ride. Water vapor, generated in large amounts in kitchens, flows with the air. By traveling through the recessed fixture, water vapor goes directly into the attic or wall cavity where it can condense on a cool surface, such as the roof sheathing. This could lead to mold, mildew and structural decay. Cathedral ceilings are especially vulnerable to this moisture problem because of their limited ventilation space.
Specify airtight models that have been tested for low air leakage according to ASTM 283E. The results should show no more than 2.0 cfm of air flow at 50 pascals of pressure. Also consider surface-mounted fixtures, such as track lights, instead of recessed ones.

Week 5 Start/Sit: Fading FreemanBrandon Funston at Yahoo Sports Fantasy Minute 3 days ago
With four teams on bye this week (Carolina, Minnesota, the N.Y. Jets and Miami), your lineup options this week are likely to look a little thinner than you'd like. To help your Week 5 cause (full season or daily), here's a few players I expect to look better/worse than usual on Sunday.
QB - Marcus Mariota, Ten vs Buf ($32 in DFS) - You can't run against Buffalo (no RB has reached even 50 rushing yards against) and opponents know this, which helps explain why the Bills have had the most pass attempts against (48 per game). It's also a big reason why the Bills have allowed the fifth-most passing yards and second-most TD passes. Mariota, who is coming off a bye, is top 5 among QBs in Yahoo default scoring, and he's done most of that work with his arm - watch out if he's ever cut loose in the running game. Given the set-up this week, though, he should do just fine (QB1 level) even if his fleet feet don't factor in once again.
Big Board: Freeman forces way into top 25Brandon Funston at Yahoo Sports Fantasy Minute 5 days ago
The Big Board takes into consideration past returns, current performance and expected future gains in determining who should be included among the top 50 fantasy football players. Essentially, the Big Board is a cheat sheet designed for a fantasy owner who is planning to participate in a draft today. Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Football default scoring settings are used as the baseline for the Big Board.
[Yahoo Daily Fantasy Football: Enter our $750K Week 5 contest]
Note: "vs. ECR" compares my rank to the Expert Consensus Rank (ECR) as compiled by FantasyPros.
Dropped Out: C.J. Anderson, Den, RB; Jarvis Landry, Mia, WR;Mike Evans, TB, WR; Jimmy Graham, Sea, TE; Travis Kelce, KC, TE; LeSean McCoy, Buf, RB (hammy); Steve Smith, Bal, WR (back);
Week 4 Starts/Sit: Bills to payBrandon Funston at Roto Arcade 10 days ago
There's byes and a showdown in London to consider this weekend. To help your Week 4 cause (full season or daily), here's a few players I expect to look better/worse than usual on Sunday.
QB - Derek Carr, Oak at Chi ($37 in DFS) - Carr currently holds the 13th-highest starting percentage among QBs in Yahoo leagues this week. I like him much more than that. He's averaged 332.5 passing yards and has thrown 5 TD passes (with just 1 INT) in his past two games. And this week he faces a Bears defense that has allowed the highest QB Rating (123.8) and the second-most TD passes (8) in the league. As a rookie, Carr didn't have much to work with. But that's changed this season. He's got a legit go-to wideout in Amari Cooper, better secondary options in Michael Crabtree and Seth Roberts (who I actually like more than Crabtree) and there's reason for the defense to pay attention to what's going on in the backfield with the game-breaking threat of Latavius Murray. Armed now with playmakers, I see Carr as a top 7 QB play this week.
Week 3 Takeaways: Bad Luck or no Luck at allBrandon Funston at Yahoo Sports Fantasy Minute 15 days ago
1. Andrew Luck's struggles becoming a concerning trend
Perhaps because he blew away the fantasy QB competition in overall scoring in '14 it caused us to overlook some of Andrew Luck's late-season struggles - for instance, 9 INTs in his final seven games, including the postseason. Counting the two picks he gave up to the Titans on Sunday, Luck now has 7 INTs in three games in '15, making it 16 aerial giveaways in his past 10 games. We might be able to overlook this generosity if this were merely a product of some serious gunslinging that rewarded owners with 300-400 passing yards and 3-4 TD passes on a regular basis. But looking back on those past 10 games, Luck is averaging a mere 235 passing yards and has thrown just 14 TD passes, not to mention that his Completion Rate sits at a lowly mid-50 percentile range.
2. With Tony Romo out, Dallas treats backfield like a Snuggie
What do you do when you have the best offensive line in the league and are forced to play a backup QB that scares you to death in the passing game? You sell out to your running backs, which is exactly what the Cowboys did on Sunday with Brandon Weeden behind center against Atlanta.
Week 3 Start/Sit: Backing the Browns backfieldBrandon Funston at Roto Arcade 17 days ago
To help your Week 3 cause (full season or daily), here's a few players I expect to look better/worse this coming weekend. Best of luck!
QB - Marcus Mariota, Ten vs Ind ($34 in DFS) - Through two weeks, Mariota stands as the No. 3 fantasy QB in the Yahoo game (default scoring). He leads all starters in QB Rating and has yet to throw an INT. This week, he'll face an Indy defense that has injury issues with its starting corners (Vontae Davis, Greg Toler). The Colts have allowed the 9th-highest QB Rating to opposing signal callers, so far, and that was against Tyrod Taylor and Ryan Fitzpatrick. Mariota has a great shot at delivering back-end QB1 results this week, especially if he finally flashes some of that mobility that he has kept under wraps to this point (5 carries, 25 yards).

Week 2 Starts/Sits: Palmer flying high again in Windy CityBrandon Funston at Roto Arcade 24 days ago
To help your Week 2 cause (full season or daily), here's a few players I expect to be better or worse than expected. Best of luck this weekend!
QB - Carson Palmer, Ari at Chi ($34 in DFS) - I'm doubling down on Palmer after listing him here last week. After a top 3 fantasy QB outing vs. New Orleans in the opener, Palmer now has the pleasure of facing a Bears defense that allowed a 140.5 QB Rating (third-highest in the NFL) to Aaron Rodgers in Week 1. There are 15 more expensive signal callers in the Yahoo DFS game, yet he's ranked seventh in our Week 2 rankings. Jump all over that market oversight.

Week 1 Starts/Sits: Parker has profit potential in NFL debut
Alas, Week 1 has arrived. It's "rubber meets the road" time. Time to make those tough roster decisions that could ultimately be the difference between opening the season with a win or a loss (which is such a tough pill to swallow). To help your cause, here's a few players I expect to be better or worse than expected in Week 1. Enjoy opening weekend, folks!
QB - Carson Palmer, Ari vs. NO (64 percent owned) - The Saints allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to QBs last season, and without top CB Keenan Lewis (hip surgery), it's a stretch to think New Orleans will be any better at aerial defense to open the '15 campaign. Expect Palmer, who opened last season with 304 passing yards and 2 TD passes in Week 1 before hurting his shoulder, to get vertical early and often (the way HC Bruce Arians likes it) against the Saints.

High Fives: A nightmare on Fantasy Street
With the NFL regular season less than a week away, Brandon Funston, Dalton Del Don and Scott Pianowski offer their top-5 takes on the fantasy football landscape, starting with their nightmare scenario for the opening rounds of a fantasy draft. Let's get to it ... [Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football: Sign up and join a league today!]
3. Alfred Morris - Doesn't catch the ball, has seen his YPC drop every year in the league and loses the benefit of a QB with a rushing threat now that RG3 has been demoted. No thanks
5. Jarvis Landry - Got 6.8 YPT and averaged 47.4 YPG while seeing one target inside the five yard line last season. I don't get the Landry hype
1. Marshawn Lynch - His safe floor made him No. 1 on my board, but I've been able to get him as late as No. 6 overall
1. Julio Jones - Everything's in place for a career year, and his injury risk has been overstated
Upon further review: Maclin might be a KC masterpiece after allBrandon Funston at Roto Arcade 1 mth ago
With preseason play nearing its end, I've asked the Yahoo fanalysts to identify which players did the most to sway their opinions (positively and negatively) from where they were initially valued before training camps got underway. I will kick this exercise off with a player that, while he seriously damaged his value in the fantasy court of public opinion, I can't help but keep moving up my WR draft board.
Going Up
Brandon Marshall, NYJ, WR: Leading the Jets' receiving corps in targets throughout the preseason, Marshall looks rejuvenated and ready to bounce back from a down year. He's a fantastic value in the fifth round. (Liz Loza)
Bishop Sankey, Ten, RB: Sankey remains in line to receive a healthy share of the workload in a not-totally-zombified offense, so he's not such a bad late-round dice roll. I don't trust him, obviously, but I can tolerate him after Pick No. 100. (Andy Behrens)
High Fives: A fantasy draft
With the NFL preseason underway, Brandon Funston, Andy Behrens and Liz Loza offer their top-5 takes on the fantasy football landscape, starting with their dream scenario for the opening rounds of a fantasy draft. Let's get to it ... [Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football: Sign up and join a league today!]
3. Latavius Murray - Murray's ceiling is tremendous . Just silly. Assuming good health in 2015, he can force his way into the first round of 2016 drafts.
1. Chris Polk - I think he's more talented than Alfred Blue, and if Arian Foster misses a sizeable chunk of games, I expect that Polk will bubble to the top
1. Brandon Coleman - He's been a stand out in camp and has surpassed Nick Toon as the team's third receiver. He'd likely take over Colston's role were the vet to go down.
5. Andrew Luck - You don't get to 40 (or 50) TDs without throwing a few picks.

"The entire process was just amazing! The design team worked with me from beginning to end and helped me customize it 100% to my wedding. The color was absolutely perfect, and the quality was amazing."
"The programs for our wedding turned out to be exactly what we were hoping to have! The customizable colours and fonts allowed us to have programs that matched our invitations. The Wedding Paper Divas online help and designers were very helpful and adjusted the design as we requested. The delivery was even a week earlier than projected!"
"I was able to personalise the card and the team were very helpful. The delivery was fast and reliable. Product is gorgeous! LOVE IT and would use again and recommend!"
"I cannot say enough about how pleased we were with our wedding programs! Everything about this program from the colors to the font and the paper was amazing. Our photo went well with the blue/green color option and we were impressed with the attention to detail. Thank you Wedding Paper Divas!!!"
"It took a minute for me to figure out the format, but I am not a computer savvy person. I changed the font and color of the print with no effort! Th paper quality was a surprise. I thought it would be on simple printer paper, but it was a card stock. I was in a little bit of a hurry and the programs arrived the day before the predicted date! Wonderful!"

Chart: Gold London P.M Fixed and Gold Diffusion Index (DI)
Great commentary, thank you. My guess is that we see the 13DEMA go down to 0 (I had predicted that it would go into the date area on your chart if that was possible, implying a negative reading, while understanding that is impossible) and that the DI index goes above 58. It would make sense to me that we have another last push down before the TIME window closes measured by the GLD EMA. The increasing fear and impatience will result in more apples falling from the tree resulting in a higher diffusion reading. Given how my clients are calling me this week, I would expect that we are getting close to another reversal.
So many people seem to believe that any action, even the wrong action, is better than just sitting sit in stressful situations.
The Gorilla was a nice touch on the 13DEMA chart, although you could have located him down and to the right of green average date and price of end of the B-wave numbers for more readers to notice.
I liked to play Donkey Kong back in the day…

Assez grosse structure en plein coeur de Buenos Aires, idéale lorsqu'on a peu de temps pour visiter !
Sun 27 Sep 2015
Ambiente muito alegre, com gente muito agradável. Boa localização e um excelente café da manhã. O ponto negativo fica por conta do elevador que estava quebrado e nós ficamos no 5º andar e ficar subindo e descendo 5 andares todo dia não é fácil.

Letter: Damage done
Jennifer Johnson, Naples
Damage done
On April 10 Gov. Rick Scott signed a bill that put legitimate businesses out of business.
Senior arcades did nothing wrong. They pumped millions into the Florida economy (in taxes, etc.) and local communities.
You, Mr. Governor, put thousands of Floridians out of work and perhaps on food stamps and unemployment — all because you had egg on your face from the lieutenant governor being asked to resign (by you) because she was a public relations representative for an Internet cafe.
But the real reason this has come to fruition is that there have been many senators, including the ones who authored this bill, who accepted money from the Internet cafes and now want to redeem themselves to get re-elected. That is a poor excuse to put 14,000 people in Florida out of work and livelihoods! The owners of legitimate senior arcades should not have to shoulder the responsibilities because politcians took money from Internet cafes.
This does not just affect the senior arcades, but also Disney World, Dave and Buster's, Chuck E Cheese, Wal-Mart and your local bowling alleys.
The grandmas, grandpas and veterans who play at these legitimate arcades — and they fought for your freedom and mine — you are now telling them they can't do something they enjoy?
Again, shame on you, Sens. John Thrasher and Garrett Richter, and all the Senate and House, who acted with a knee-jerk reaction without listening to the voters of Florida.

The Kansas City Star had an interesting article about road construction funding in Kansas and Missouri. Apparently both states have had major decade-long construction programs running, and now the funding is running dry. Missouri at least is considering a gas tax increase to keep things going.
I found a couple of things interesting. The first was comparing the current spending levels of both states back to Indiana's Major Moves program. Both Kansas and Missouri are larger than Indiana geographically, but smaller in population. Kansas actually has less than half as many people as Indiana. But both states' current construction programs are as large or larger than Major Moves. The Kansas program was 10 years, $13 billion, or $1.3 billion per year. I don't know the length of the Missouri program, but they are spending about $1.1 billion per year. Major Moves is a 10 year, $11.9 billion program, or about $1.2 billion per year. So it is interesting that Indiana has only been able to accomplish with its toll road lease not anything different than two other smaller states managed to figure out how to do without leasing out a toll road. Presumably at the end of Major Moves, as with the end of these other states' programs, highway funding will fall off a cliff.
The other thing of note was a brief mention of a desire to put dedicated truck lanes on I-70. This is the "Corridors of the Future" application that INDOT is leading the sponsorship of with the FWHA.

Artist Bio
A critically acclaimed figure on the CCM scene, Robbie Seay was born and raised in Texas, and grew up in a household deeply devoted to the church, with several pastors in his family. When Robbie was a senior in high school, his older brother Chris Seay, who was a student at Baylor University in Waco, TX, became a pastor at Waco's University Baptist Church, and Chris invited Robbie to become part of the church's music ministry. Robbie began performing at the church with David Crowder (who would go on to become a noted Christian rock artist), and Robbie found his calling in worship music that also addressed issues of faith in contemporary life. After completing high school, Robbie also enrolled at Baylor, and after graduating he moved to Houston, where Chris had become a teaching pastor at Ecclesia, which was described by its founders as "a holistic missional Christian community" and included a coffeehouse, a recording studio, an outreach center for the homeless, and a space for worship services. In 1997, Robbie Seay formed a group that performed regularly at the coffeehouse and at Ecclesia's Sunday services, featuring Seay on lead vocals and guitar, Dan Hamilton on drums, Taylor Johnson on guitar, and Seth Woods on bass. The Robbie Seay Band released their self-titled debut EP in 1997, with the full-length album Thoughts of You following in 1999. Several years later, Ryan Owen, a close friend of Seay, replaced Seth Woods on bass, and Taylor Johnson left the group, with Chase Jenkins signing on as keyboard player. After the success of the independently released albums 10,000 Charms (2002), Live (2003), and Better Days (2004), bolstered by touring through the Southwest, the Robbie Seay Band signed a deal with the prominent Christian music label Sparrow Records, which released a revised edition of Better Days in 2005. In 2007, Seay and his band released their second full-length album for Sparrow, Give Yourself Away.

Learning from the Best
April 18, 2013
CSU Fullerton, Student Housing Phase III, 2013 Best Practice Award recipient for Overall Sustainable Design
Eight California State University programs and projects have been selected for Higher Education Energy Efficiency and Sustainability Best Practice Awards. The statewide higher education awards are meant to highlight achievements, showcase specific sustainable models and facilitate the transfer of best practices between campuses.
The CSU awardees for 2013 include the following:
- Overall Sustainable Design: CSU Fullerton, Student Housing Phase III
- HVAC Design/Retrofit: CSU Stanislaus, Chilled and Hot Water Distribution Systems and Central Plant Optimization
- Lighting Design/Retrofit: CSU Fullerton, Campuswide Lighting Project
- Monitoring-Based Commissioning: CSU Long Beach, University Music Center
- Student Energy Efficiency Program: San Diego State, Lighting Efficiency Campaign
- Student Sustainability Program: Cal Poly Pomona, Sustainability Course Guide
- Sustainability Innovations: CSU Monterey Bay, TRIPWise and Campus Transportation
- Communicating Sustainability: Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Sustainability Educational Outreach
April 12 announcement of CSU and University of California awardees
The Best Practices Awards are sponsored by the UC/CSU/IOU Energy Efficiency Partnership, a collaboration between the universities and the state's four large investor-owned utilities.
The Communicating Sustainability category is new this year, corresponding to a focus on expanding the reach of the sustainability message. Programs at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and UC Davis will take the first-ever awards in this category back to their campuses.
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo's Sustainability Educational Outreach is composed of several complementing initiatives encompassing facilities, academics and community service. A biennial report highlights Cal Poly's progress toward sustainability goals in the areas of policy, energy use, water resources, transportation, recycling, greenhouse gas emissions, land use and development, and creating a more sustainable community. The campus also greatly broadened the reach of its sustainability efforts through two sustainability mascots – Mr. Eco and Poly the Polar Bear. Through rap music, "Mr. Eco" educates and inspires students of all ages to consider the impact of their actions on the global environment. Poly the Polar Bear engages students to participate in the campus energy competitions by educating them on the effects of climate change.
While this year's awardees celebrate, many lessons are still being learned from the awardees of past years. The Green Building Research Center prepared case studies for the 2012 awardees, including five CSU campuses: Cal Maritime, San Diego, Chico, San Marcos and San Luis Obispo.
Best Practice Awards are formally recognized during the California Higher Education Sustainability Conference. The conference is an opportunity for students, faculty and staff from the CSU, UC and the California Community Colleges – as well as private colleges, universities and other partners – to share progress and learn from each other. The conference will be held at UC Santa Barbara starting June 23, 2013.

It seemed a worthy investment: a planned community 60 miles from Los Angeles, 10 miles from the mountains and two miles from the beach at a time when California real estate was skyrocketing.
And the man asking for the money promised eye-popping returns -- in at least one case, 25 percent within a year.
But a few years later, those who loaned money to Bob Yanagihara for the Westwind real estate development have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. And Westwind officials are left wondering why Yanagihara even sought investors for the deal when, in fact, they say he had no stake in the development. ...

Looking for a new and heavier sound, Pantera had Terry replaced in 1987 with Phil Anselmo as the new vocalist. "Revolution is My Name" was the first single from the band's final album, Reinventing the Steel. The video was directed by Jim Van Bebber and produced by Grant Cihlar for 1171 Production Group. The video is a mix of various elements: between performances from the band and live footage, it also contains comical snippets of a sitcom-esque interpretation of the band's childhood, where the musicians are portrayed as small kids (with facial hair included) listening to Led and ZZ Top while jumping on the bed and playing oversized instruments. The video also includes flashes of the band's influences such as Black Sabbath and KISS. The song reached number 28 on the Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks. The song was nominated for Best Metal Performance in the 2001 Grammys. The music video was voted as the 15th Greatest Metal Video of the 21st Century on HeadBanger's Ball in 2005.

Yes, you read the title correctly! SMU is turning 100! With this comes a very exciting time of celebration on the Hilltop, formerly known as The Centennial Celebration. The festivities kicked off this afternoon in the Main Quad where our wonderful Mustang Band performed as the Centennail Flag was raised. Students, faculty, staff and alumni all gathered for the occasion and had the opportunity to sign a giant birthday card to the university and grab refreshments and cupcakes. To top it all off, fireworks shot off of the roof of Dallas Hall. All that happened this afternoon is just a glimpse of what is to come in the next year while SMU continues to celebrate their outstanding success over the past 100 years.

Mosaics illustrates how reading and writing are part of an interrelated process, and encourages students to discover how the "mosaics" of their own reading and writing processes work together to form a coherent whole.
Acclaimed instructor and author Kim Flachmann capitalizes on the growing trend of studying reading to sharpen writing skills. Throughout the text students are shown the interrelationship among thinking, reading, and writing as they move back and forth through the tasks of pre-reading and reading, prewriting and writing, and revising and editing. Reading strategies are introduced in Chapter 1 and then integrated throughout the text. Meanwhile, as they are employing these reading strategies, students learn from their own writing–revising and editing of their own work.

Employee: Roger Baribeau
Employer: General Electric Co.
Insurer: General Electric Co.
Board No.: 1450394
(Judges Wilson, McCarthy and Smith 1 )
Nancy L. Hall, Esq., for the employee at hearing
Paul A. Gargano, Esq., for the employee on appeal
Kevin P. Jones, Esq., for the self-insurer at hearing
Paul M. Moretti, Esq., for the self-insurer on appeal
WILSON, J. The employee appeals a decision in which an administrative judge denied his claim for further incapacity benefits after an accepted industrial injury to his back. The judge found that the employee had left his modified position with the employer voluntarily, had retired from the work force, and thereby relinquished his claim for further incapacity benefits. The employee challenges the judge's fact-finding and legal conclusions. We affirm the decision.
Mr. Baribeau, fifty-seven years old at hearing, injured his back on April 7, 1994, and received incapacity benefits for several months. (Dec. 4.) The employee returned to work in a light duty capacity on August 4, 1994, but began to experience increased back and groin pain as of February 1995. Nevertheless, he continued working until August 1996, when he experienced severe pain upon getting up from the dinner table. (Dec. 5.) At that time the employee underwent MRI testing, which indicated concentric discprotrusions at L3-4, L4-5 and L2-3. He returned to work on September 23, 1996, at first part-time, and eventually full time. On June 24, 1997, the employee reinjured his back and, although he did not leave work for any time after that occurrence, he was assigned work as needed but not assigned any individual job-tasks from that time until he retired on October 1, 1997. (Dec. 6.) Nonetheless, the employee was paid his full wage, even though he considered that he was not performing any productive work. The employee applied for a special early retirement option in July 1997, effective October 1, 1997. (Dec. 7.)
The employee claimed continuing § 34 benefits from October 1, 1997, which claim the judge denied at the § 10A conference. The employee appealed to a full evidentiary hearing and, on July 13, 1998, was examined by an impartial physician pursuant to § 11A(2). (Dec. 2.) The impartial physician opined that the employee had a chronic back strain with evidence of disc protusion at L3-4, causally related to the April 7, 1994 industrial injury. He concluded that the employee was partially disabled, but could perform a job that did not require lifting over 20 pounds more than once every fifteen to twenty minutes, with no bending or twisting. The judge adopted the doctor's opinions. (Dec. 8.)
The judge did not credit the employee's reports of the degree of pain or limitations he experienced as a result of his industrial injury. (Dec. 8-9.) The judge found that the employee was not entitled to incapacity benefits, as his earnings at the time of his retirement matched his average weekly wage. He also concluded that the employer had accommodated the employee and provided him with modified work, consistent with the restrictions set by the impartial physician, at no loss of pay. But for the employee's personal decision to retire, unrelated to his ability to perform the modified job, the judge determined that he would have been earning his pre-injury wage. (Dec. 8, 10.) Hence, the judge denied the employee's claim for further incapacity benefits. (Dec. 11.)
The employee argues on appeal that the decision is internally inconsistent, and thus should be recommitted for further findings and clarification. The employee questions the judge's findings that he was working within light duty restrictions from June 25, 1997 until October 1, 1997, (Dec. 10), as compared to his findings that the employee did not perform any productive work at that time, and that he neither requested nor was assigned work. (Dec. 6, 7.) We take note of the lack of clarity in the judge's subsidiary findings of fact. 2 We are not persuaded however, that there is any consequence to the inexact nature of the findings as a matter of law. "The [judge's] decision leaves something to be desired but nevertheless furnishes an adequate basis for judicial review." Forni's Case, 10 Mass. App. Ct. 850 (1980)(rescript op).
This case turns on the undisputed fact that the employee earned the same while working during the June-October 1997 period as he had earned prior to his injury, regardless of what he was doing during the disputed post-injury period. The employee makes no argument that he was asked to perform any task that exceeded his medical limitations. Moreover, the judge's findings are quite clear on the other pertinent fact - that the employee left this light duty (or make-work) position voluntarily, without being laid off, compare Bradley v. Commonwealth Gas Co., 13 Mass. Workers' Comp. Rep. 142, 146 (1999), or having a realistic anticipation of a lay-off. See Bajdek's Case, 321 Mass. 325 (1947).
The employee's reliance on Bajdek, id., merits a brief discussion. In that case, the court affirmed the board's finding that "while [the employee's] leaving the insured was voluntary in the sense that the decision was his own, the underlying ground was his desire to remain employed consecutively and without interruption." Id. at 329 (emphasis added). The case is inapposite to the present situation for the plain reason that the employee here was leaving work entirely voluntarily, without the reasons that motivated Bajdek; namely, a more stable employment future. In the case at hand we have "an employee who, although capable of doing so, chose [in July 1997] not to earn wages." Vass's Case, 319 Mass. 297, 300 (1946). The employee's actual post-injury wages being established, the plain and unambiguous language of § 35D(1) applies to establish the employee's earning capacity:
For purposes of sections thirty-four, thirty-four A and thirty-five, the weekly wage the employee is capable of earning, if any, after the injury, shall be the greatest of the following:--
(1) The actual earnings of the employee during each week.
G.L. c. 152, § 35D(1)(emphasis added). Since the employee's "actual earnings" from a job that he was capable of performing were sufficient to bar him from receiving incapacity benefits, there was no need for the judge to analyze the "suitability" of the job under subsections (3) and (5) of § 35D.
Accordingly, because the judge's denial of benefits was adequately supported by subsidiary findings of fact, which in turn were supported by the record evidence, we affirm the decision. See Zucchi's Case, 310 Mass. 130, 132-133 (1941).
So ordered.
Sara Holmes Wilson
Administrative Law Judge
William A. McCarthy
Administrative Law Judge
FILED: September 22, 2000
1 Judge Smith no longer serves as a member of the reviewing board.
2 We agree with the self-insurer, however, that all of the judge's findings regarding the work that the employee did or did not perform from June through October 1997 were entirely supported by the employee's own testimony at hearing. (Self-insurer Brief, 16-17.)

Sovereign Trust Insurance Plc
Nnamdi Duru
Sovereign Trust Insurance Plc (STI) said it has adopted recent technology in the industry to ensure that it delivers seamless world class services to its customers across the country.
The Head of Information Technology and Strategy in the company, Mr. Lekan Oguntunde, made this known in a statement in Lagos recently. He reaffirmed the company's commitment towards driving its new business model with up-to-date technology.
"STI is indeed committed to creating a world-class organisation in every sense of the word. More than ever before, the company is set to drive the implementation of its new business model by employing cutting-edge technology to shore up its operational efficiency," he said.
He noted that any forward-looking organisation should have a real time, cutting-edge technology at the fulcrum of its business operations, adding "that is what Sovereign Trust has adopted in pushing the frontiers of its operations beyond the shores of the country."
According to him, the firm realised that technology remains the hallmark and arrow-head of any successful business and as such it adopted Eskadenia, business application software for the insurance industry, as far back as 2009 to drive its business.
According to him, eskadenia software was developed using an object-oriented programming language which was designed to automate the general insurance policy life cycles of insurers' customers and reduce operational gridlock.
It also enhances job quality, maintains up to-date historical data on all businesses generated while ensuring high level of customer confidentiality and security.
Oguntunde said his organisation has done several upgrades of the software over the years to ensure delivery of seamless world class services to its customers of the underwriting firm across the country.
In order to meet all the functional specifications and technical capabilities as required by its teeming customers, STI has made necessary enhancements to the software to accommodate recent changes and to ensure successful execution of the new business models, he assured.
"Tapping into up to-date technology can yield plethora of opportunities which will yield dividends as well as create cost effective measures in which the company plans to utilise optimally to the benefit of stakeholders and the organisation as a whole," he added.
Established 16 years ago, Sovereign Trust prides itself as a firm that continuously pioneers initiatives that are geared towards the promotion growth, development and human capital development in the insurance industry in Nigeria.
STI listed its shares on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange in 2006 even as the company boasts of engaging an array of professionals from different fields and places high premium on human capital development at every level of operations in the organisation.
The Global Credit Rating (GCR), a South Africa based financial rating agency rated STI A-, a confirmation of the firm's strong resolve to stay true to the tenets of transparency, professionalism, corporate governance, accountability and ethical standards in the practice of insurance business.
The company's shareholders' funds is in excess of N4 billion, with N2.6 billion paid-up capital and a balance sheet size of over N6 billion.
In recently concluded its rights issue, an exercise geared towards propelling the next phase of its growth agenda and to allow shareholders increase their respective stakes in the company as a way of maximising their investments for greater returns.

AUBURN - An Auburn man went so overboard with corporal punishment recently he's been jailed on felony charges of child cruelty, police said.David Sloat, 39, used shoes, books and his hand to discipline an 8-year-old male relative, injuring the boy, according to his arrest warrants. Sloat is charged with two counts of child cruelty, first degree, for allegedly striking the child on two separate occasions. He faces an additional charge of child cruelty, third degree, for spanking the boy in the presence of a female relative younger than age 18. The first incident occurred in September, when Sloat allegedly struck the boy across the buttocks with a shoe at his Wheeler Road home. On Jan. 29, a Gwinnett police officer returned to the home to follow up on a report filed with the Division of Family and Children Services. The officer found "definite and visible bruising" caused when Sloat spanked the boy with his hand and a book, according to police. Police secured warrants and Sloat was taken into custody Wednesday. He remains in the Gwinnett County Jail without bond.

BEYOND RED AND BLUE It's no revelation that the liberal blogosphere features extreme partisanship and reflexive loathing of political adversaries. But the Jack Abramoff scandal seems to have driven some online activists over a cliff in their never-ending witch-hunt for secret villains. The latest target is John McCain. This week, the Arizona Republican lashed out at Democratic Senator Barack Obama. Obama had told McCain that he would join a bipartisan group working to come up with a lobbying reform plan, then decided instead to back a proposal crafted by Senate Democratic leaders.

Gophers notes: No. 3 QB Streveler injured, CB Derrick Wells probable
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
Backup QB Chris Streveler ailing
Regardless of how the Gophers end up using sophomore starter Philip Nelson and backup Mitch Leidner Saturday afternoon at Michigan, they can at the very least breathe easier having two capable and able-bodied options at quarterback.
But coach Jerry Kill admitted on Wednesday he is concerned about his No. 3 quarterback, true freshman Chris Streveler, who injured his hand in practice this week during a passing drill.
With Streveler sidelined, fellow true freshman Conor Rhoda has taken reps with the third team offense. The former Cretin-Derham Hall high school standout has been primarily used as quarterback on the Gophers' scout team along with freshman Michael Conway.
Streveler still has his redshirt intact, but the coaching staff has openly said it wouldn't hesitate to play the Illinois native if needed this season. On campus since January, Streveler has garnered growing praise from the coaching staff with his uptick in development in the weeks following the start of fall camp.
Troubles passing
• From both his own account and that of his coaches, Philip Nelson is a harsh critic when it comes to watching through game film of himself.
Nelson found plenty of reasons to be critical when rolling through footage from the Gophers' 23-7 loss to Iowa, which was marred by offensive woes. His frustration was largely aimed at the struggles in the passing game.
Nelson, who holds a 50.7% completion rate on the year -- albeit with the fewest passing attempts in the Big Ten, threw for 135 yards against Iowa (12-of-24), with a pair of interceptions and a bevy of missed chances sprinkled throughout.
"The reason Phil was disappointed, we were disappointed, was that there were throws there," quarterbacks coach Jim Zebrowski said. "In terms of getting receivers opening, we had some big opportunities there. The day came where we weren't necessarily doing a good job on the ground and the throws were there. We just didn't make them."
Wells limited, but probable for Saturday
• Cornerback Derrick Wells was donned in green limited contact jersey Wednesday, cautious to keep undue strain off his injured right shoulder.
Wells has had issues with his shoulder off and on since fall camp, reaggravating it against Iowa. It shouldn't keep him from playing in Saturday's battle for the Little Brown Jug at Michigan, but the Gophers are likely to keep a close eye on him.
"He wants to go and says he can go," defensive coordinator Tracy Claeys said. "It may be one of those things that he gets it dinged and has to come out for a little bit. But with (senior backup) Jeremy (Baltazar) playing better than he had been, it is kind of a good deal."
Henry's status in question
• Forced to watch the Gophers' run game stall out against Iowa's impressively stout defense from the sidelines, redshirt senior fullback Mike Henry is once again questionable for Saturday with an injury to his ribs.
The Gophers are hopeful Henry will be cleared to play Saturday. He took limited no-contact reps in practice Wednesday, which Kill remarked was a pleasant surprise.
But if Henry is unable to go, tight end Gabe Mezzenga is slated to fill the fullback role. The redshirt junior, brought in as a walk-on by former coach Tim Brewster in 2010, made his collegiate debut this season against UNLV.
Redshirt remains likely scenario for Edwards
• Kill still won't make an official statement, but as reported last week, it is increasingly obvious the Gophers intend to keep a redshirt on freshman running back Berkley Edwards.
Once an almost foregone conclusion to be part of the tailback mix this season, Edwards was tripped up by a severe knee and ankle sprain late in fall camp that caused him to miss four weeks of practice. Edwards is now back, but the missed practice time has slowed his progress.
"When you're out for as long as he was as a true freshman ... if we brought him back we would play him a bunch," Kill said. "You don't want to play a kid five plays here, four plays here and three plays there. We've got some depth at running back right. If he would have stayed healthy that would have been a different story."
Kirkwood closing in on '100 percent'
• Speaking of running backs, redshirt junior Donnell Kirkwood is "really starting to come on" in practice this, Kill said. Kirkwood his been hindered since Week 1 with an ankle sprain. But his brief appearance against Iowa and his reportedly strong showing in practice point to him having an increased role against Michigan.

There Are Two Stories Here
features works created in 2012 during my Victor Hammer Fellowship at Wells Book Arts Center in Aurora, New York. As a Fellow, I have taught classes and had access to the printmaking resources of the Wells Book Arts Center. I've participated in the Summer Institute workshops at Wells as both a teacher and a student, exploring new avenues of expression. At Michael & Winifred Bixler Letterfoundry in Skaneateles, I've had the rare experience of casting my own lead type and seeing firsthand the processes that precede printing in letterpress. I also had the opportunity during a residency at Women's Studio Workshop in Rosendale, New York to produce larger works.
These works have been influenced by my time living beside Lake Cayuga, working in printmaking and bookbinding in upstate New York, as well as recent travel in Japan for the 1st International Mokuhanga Conference. The images complete each other in a poetic narrative. In this work, I am utilizing a perspective based on multiple points of view. I am interested in challenging the unity of time by the defiance of scale, exaggerating spatial proportions, and by showing several moments at once.

Harry Styles' new tattoo definitely makes a statement.
In a photo posted on January 22 -- but not making the rounds until this weekend -- tattoo artist Liam Sparkes shows off Harry's latest ink.
And it's a giant piece.
In the shot, Styles sports a huge butterfly tattoo on his chest, just below his pecs. While it's not the first piece for the young One Direction singer -- who has over 30 tats -- it's gotta be the biggest.
While his face can't be seen in the photo, a rep for Styles confirmed it's him in the pic.
What do you think of the piece? Sound off below -- and see more inked up celebs in the gallery above.
