It has been said that author Linda Lael Miller considers the cowboy to be the great North American myth, the ideal of honor, courage and persistence we need to live up to. After reading Big Sky Wedding, the fifth installment in her Parable, Montana series, I think I agree. The story is the perfect mix of hot cowboy and strong woman intent on ignoring their instant attraction to each other. The author's love for children, animals and nature shine through in this small town, family-oriented, western romance.
There are many ways of choosing a book to read. It could be because of the subject matter, the cover, the series, the author, or because everyone is talking about it. I chose Casebook by Mona Simpson because I was intrigued by the author and the excellent reviews. Simpson was born in Green Bay (a Wisconsin connection!). Before her parents married, they had a son whom they gave up for adoption. Simpson did not know about her brother until she was an adult. Her brother was Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple.
Debbie Macomber has written another feel good novel with several happy endings that reminds me of a modern-day fairy tale. In Blossom Street Brides, several lives intertwine and connect as they face the trials and triumphs in their varying stages of life. All are connected in some way to that little yarn store on Blossom Street called A Good Yarn, first featured in the second of her Blossom Street novels. The characters eventually get to their happy endings, but it sure takes some time to get there.
Mercy Snow by Tiffany Baker is a story about two families from the small town of Titan Falls on the Androscoggin River in northern New Hampshire. This is a gripping character-driven story with touches of magic realism and descriptions of the natural environment of the area. From the author's descriptions, I felt as if I could not only see the river but smell it as well.
Although it reads more like a cozy mystery than a suspenseful thriller, The Collector by Nora Roberts is another great book by an author who to date has written 184 New York Times bestsellers - including 33 written as J.D. Robb, as her website proudly proclaims. The first character we meet in her latest bestseller is Lila Emerson, a professional house sitter and writer of young adult novels, as she settles into her latest client's swanky New York apartment while they head off to the south of France for three weeks.
Author Sugar Jamison proves that love does come in all sizes in her new paperback book titled Dangerous Curves Ahead. Not your typical chick lit, the heroine of this romance novel, Ellis Garrett, is a "plusher" girl who has learned to embrace the shape of her curvy body and doesn't let pants size dictate how she lives her life. Women everywhere should read this book and learn how to be loved for who they are and not who they think they should be, whether that is thinner, smarter, sexier or funnier.
I am interested in books with a Wisconsin connection and was excited to see this debut Wisconsin author speak at the Public Library Association convention in March. Shotgun Lovesongs is set in the small fictional town of Little Wing near Eau Claire and is narrated alternately by Henry, Lee, Ronny, Kip, and Beth who are all in their early 30s. Henry is a farmer and married to Beth. Lee has become a famous musician. Ronny is a former rodeo star and recovering alcoholic who now has brain damage.
Nantucket is known as an island of the privileged class, or so most of us think. It has its share of unique individuals, some with old money, some with new money, and some with no money at all. In Nantucket Sawbuck, author Steven Axelrod reveals scandal and intrigue behind the scenes in one of America's most exclusive resort towns - all because of the murder of an evil tycoon named Preston Lomax.
I liked fairy tales as a child and was drawn to this new book While Beauty Slept by Elizabeth Blackwell--a retelling of the tale of Sleeping Beauty with an emphasis on court life and power struggles rather than magic. It is fantasy that reads like historical fiction.
Do you like steamy romances but want the wholesomeness of a family saga? Bella Andre is the author for you. Her Sullivan Series follows the lives of the eight Sullivan siblings as they one by one find true love. All set within a warm family dynamic, with enough sibling rivalry and bickering to make it realistic, each book can be read as a standalone and they need not be read in sequence. The sex scenes are a bit steamy and romantic, but each story is filled with true emotion and has a strong and solid basis of love.

Like don't get me wrong, that's a good record, but I don't think it feels like it really starts until track 4/5
Album Rating: 4.0Diamond Eyes is more consistent for me though. Graphic Nature doesn't do anything for me and I still can't believe Poltergeist flows into entombed haha. Everything else is fantastic though.

I just bought the 08 Expert, researched geometry and brain technology but didn't pay as much attention to the parts list other than suspension, assumed a $3,700 bike came with better components, glad I didnt pay $3,700, but in hind site would have been better off buying the frame and building it up.
First piss off, crappy seat and seat post , creak, creak , swapped out from my other bike a thompson elite seatpost and wtb stealth seat. Next further research - cassette is below XT level, may be even below LX... Ok so $60 bucks online for the 08 XT , not the end of the world. Hmm LX front Del with Sram XO rear - huh?, ok for now, will use LX for a season and swap out. Next wheelset is going out of true with minimal ride time, apparently this wheelset is 2,000 grams plus, uses deore hub, dont even know what the dtswiss really is - now major cash decision, probably set me back min $500, geez do I strip the 717's from my other bike, was hoping to run 2.3 tires.
Now is the crankset a 07 XT or what???one post mentioned below LX, they also removed the adjuster dial from the avid brakes?, grips are cheesy also, going to buy some ODI's. May be I'm just annoyed cuz it snow again and I can't ride , because think this will be one sweet bike once upgraded but for the money, should be better equipped.
Wonder if anyone knows more about the component levels and has a similar experience.

Radio [itvt]: "The Reality of Virtual Reality" at TVOT 2015 b
in Television
[itvt] is pleased to present an audio recording of a TVOT 2015 Grand Finale session, "The Reality of Virtual Reality." The session, which was organized and moderated by Brian Seth Hurst, Managing Partner of StoryTech, was described in the show brochure as follows:
"With the arrival of the Samsung Gear VR and Google Cardboard; with the holiday season promising the Valve/HTC Vive powered by SteamVR, to be followed by Oculus Rift in Q1 2016 and Sony's Morpheus by Q2; and with FOVE, billed as "The World's First Eye Tracking Virtual Reality Headset," seeing a highly successful Kickstarter campaign--it seems that VR, after years in the lab, has finally arrived.
Yet, while development is fast-moving, challenges remain for the industry. Now that the tools are being refined, what about the artistry of immersive, forward-moving narrative, the convergence of game and story, the responsibility for the safety of the consumer, and the business models? How are the game developers and Hollywood studios responding, and what are the true opportunities presented in entertainment, journalism, education, tourism, medicine and more? This session will bring together leading creatives and other key figures from the Virtual Reality space to discuss the current state of, and future prospects for, this rapidly emerging medium." Panelists included:
Shannon Gans, CEO, New Deal Studios
Arthur van Hoff, Founder and CTO, Jaunt
Brian Seth Hurst, Managing Partner, StoryTech (Moderator)
David Marlett, Founder, Cinemersia
Robert Nashak, COO Survios
Helen Situ, Virtual Reality Evangelist, NextVR
Brent Young, President and Creative Director, Super 78 Studios

In 1936, Harley Davidson began a new era in their history with the introduction of the overhead valve v-twin model known as the Knucklehead. Prior to this motor introduction, Harley Davidson was primarily known for its sidevalve and F-Head powerplants that combined both overhead and sidevalve technology. The Knucklehead marked the first production run of an entirely OHV model and would forever turn the course of design for the Milwaukee-based company. The Harley Davidson Knucklehead was produced for 11 years, from 1936-1947 and has remained as one of the most desired collector's pieces for decades now. Of these years, the models produced prior to World War II have remained as the king when it comes to value and rarity.

We all heard late last year he left Blizzard and recently his LinkedIn page states he now works as a Lead Game Designer for Riot Games. There hasn't been any official word from Ghostcrawler.

Was Spike Lee Correct In His Comments About A Post-Racial America? - The LanceSc
in Culture
Spike Lee had some very straightforward words to say the other day about those who feel that we live in a Post-Racial America and that everything is moving forward between the races simply because there is now a Black President in the White House.
I personally have to say that I agree 100% with what Spike had to say and I also had a few of my own words that I wanted to add to the conversation.
Listen in and leave your comments so that the healthy and very much necessary dialogue can continue on a topic that many are in denial about and bury their heads in the sand when confronted with it.

RT-PCR assessment of purity of Eimeria tenella merozoites, gametocytes and oocysts. Total RNA was extracted from E. tenella merozoite (M), gametocyte (G), unsporulated oocyst (UO) and sporulated oocyst (SO) preparations. cDNA was synthesized and stage-specific parasite genes (GAM56 for gametocytes; TFP250 for merozoites and sporozoites) was amplified by RT-PCR. PCR samples were run alongside chicken host cDNA (H), E. tenella genomic DNA (gD) and a negative control sample with no template (−) on a 1% agarose gel. The E. tenella β-actin gene product was used to standardize loading of parasite cDNA samples.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. — New Bedford police responding to reports of gunfire over the weekend found a man dead.
The Bristol district attorney's office says officers responded to Weld Square at about 2 a.m. Sunday and found a body in a grassy area adjacent to Route 18 near the Interstate 195 overpass.
The victim, identified Monday as 32-year-old Edson Ramos of New Bedford, was pronounced dead at the scene and police are investigating the death as a homicide.
Even though authorities say they responded to reports of gunfire, the manner of death is not being disclosed.

Academy Award-winning superstar Mel Gibson ("Maverick," "Lethal Weapon" series), Kurt Russell ("Tombstone," "Tango and Cash") and Academy Award-nominee Michelle Pfeiffer ("Dangerous Minds," "Batman Returns") star in this steamy, romantic thriller which explores the relationship between two longtime friends -- one a drug dealer looking for a way out, and the other, a cop assigned to trap his friend. Caught between them -- and powerfully drawn to both -- is the beautiful Michelle Pfeiffer. Written and directed by Academy Award-winner Robert Towne ("The Firm," "Chinatown") and co-starring Golden Globe-winner Raul Julia ("Addams Family Values," "Kiss of the Spider Woman"), this is "a hot and intoxicating, sexy sizzler with three of the most exciting performers on screen at any one time," says WWOR-TV. At the Movies calls it "a sexy, tough, two-fisted thriller."]]>

Dr. Joshua Polsky's Ratings
Staff, Office and Dr is fantastic. Dr Polsky was kind and undrstanding. I was very nervous going in and left calm and thankful.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][2930731].votes_count ]]
Dr. Polsky inserted my IUD before my cervix was fully dilated from the tablets. He knew this, spoke with another patient for a few minutes to give me some more time, and then inserted the IUD while I screamed and felt close to passing out. When I cursed from the worst pain in my life, he stated "That's warranted considering what you've just been through." I was his last patient, which is why he did not wait with me and headed straight home. The staff had to help me off the table, give me the most pain meds available, and then ensure repeteadly I was okay to drive home, long after Dr. Polksy had headed home for the day. This was done months ago, and to this day the pain makes me physically cringe. I have a body piercing and a few tattoos in the most notoriously painful areas (foot, ribs, etc.), but none of those instances come close to the pain I went through with this insertion. I have a very high pain threshold, yet now harbour a strong fear of getting this device removed. I will be seeing another MD from now on, even if it means travelling out of town. I feel sorry that Windsorites are stuck with this singular option; the revolving door of patients certainly makes it easy for Dr. Polsky to cut corners when he can, regardless of patient trauma. He is polite, knowledgeable, and retains good staff, but I would not recommend this MD.

Horrible!!! Out of 9 months and over 20 visits my fiancé and I delt with Polski himself 4 times. After that he didn't even deliver our baby. AFTER that, he put my fiances IUD in wrong. Once we called about that, his next available day to go for a check up was 5 days after (because once again money and vacation is more important then my fiances pains making her barely unable to walk.) On top of everything the office is so small, half the pregnant women are standing because lack of seating. I would never recommend anyone to go there ever. Horrible.

I saw Dr. Polsky last year for cervical cancer screening. I liked him then. I was nervous and he made me feel very comfortable. Super, super nice and just an overall good experience. Then I got pregnant and was referred to him again. He actually remembered me from that one appt I had the previous year so that made me happy. I have to admit, my very first OB appt. I was mad at the staff because they couldn't accommodate my busy school schedule and I just felt like they were rude. I ended up waiting hours and I was just annoyed for the small office and long wait. Since then I've made earlier appointments and I have zero complaints! The wait is pretty minimal, the staff has been nothing but nice and I'm in and out with no elevated blood pressure - hallelujah!

Copper cable theft declared a high-priority crimeBack
© Reuse this
Speaking at the Copper Cable Theft conference, in Johannesburg, she said the crime would now receive the focus and attention it needed and that government was realising the impact that copper theft has on the economy.
"Currently, South Africa's International Trade and Administration Act does not allow for the policing of these processes, which makes it an open door for syndicated criminal activity to successfully enable stolen goods and nonferrous metals to leave the country.
"Unfortunately, law enforcement agencies and international trade administration authorities do not have the resources to check every container that leaves South Africa. This is a challenge and it is critical for us to address this matter with the Minister of the DTI and to have him incorporate stringent legislation, which will not hinder trade that builds the economy, but hinder the export or import of stolen or illegal goods," she said.
The import and export processes were the first of four high-impact areas identified. Other interventions included the establishment of a central facility to coordinate data and more proactive policing.
"The South African Police Services (SAPS) has been very proactive in the provinces and nationally. However, there will be operational plans developed in each province and more vigorous policing.
"There are a lot of high-level developments within the SAPS, which will cater to and accommodate this," Pillay-van Graan said.
But, what was most critical, and the fourth aspect of the high-impact areas was that "business needed to get its house in order".
Pillay-van Graan said: "It is very easy to say there is a reliance on law enforcement organisations to do the policing but we believe most of the risks exist within businesses. There is a need for businesses to unpack their value chain and "clean up their houses".
"Business also needs to identify internal risks throughout their value chain, from financial investment to security, skills and capability of staff, including outsourcing contracts."
"We are quite positive about the export and import processes and believe it will probably have the highest impact on curbing nonferrous theft. We will look to a combination of the four aspects we have identified to help grow our economy. We are going to get more 'purified' money coming into the economy and South Africa will not be a conduit to facilitate criminal activity across our borders," Pillay-van Graan told Engineering News Online.
But, she said that it was also key for industry and government in South Africa to understand that the theft of nonferrous metals was not only the result of local challenges, but also changes in the international arena.
The international demand for copper, particularly from developing economies like India and China, as well as Saudi Arabia were also driving organised syndicated crime in South Africa and increasing the level of incidents of theft.
Meanwhile, microdot manufacturer DataDot senior strategic analyst Dekker van Wyk emphasised the key role that technology would play in dealing with cable theft, and the need to start looking for solutions that could be deployed at a manufacturing level.
He believed that technology, including microdots, could be used as a cost-effective method of identification. "Cable is devoid of an identity once the casing has been removed. By the time it reaches the foundry or for export, it is in its raw state and the individual who has it in their presence can claim ownership."
He advocated for a separate crime code for copper theft, given that copper is the third most stolen commodity in South Africa.
Van Wyk also pointed to the new Second-Hand Goods Act, of 2009, as key to curbing copper theft as it would place strain on scrap metal dealers. The new Act is expected to be implemented from January 1, 2012.

Posted January 05, 2013 on AP on Fox
Now that he's back in the college game, Larry Brown is looking for the next Danny Manning. Meantime, he's not very excited about coaching against the real thing. When Manning and Tulsa visit SMU on Sunday night, it will be just the second time the most outstanding player from an NCAA championship team opposes his coach on the sideline. Thinking back to the moment when Kansas won that title in 1988, Brown can hardly bear the notion of trying to beat maybe his favorite player in a 40-year career. ''It's going to be a special moment seeing him on the other bench coaching,'' Brown said. ''But I don't enjoy that opportunity because if we lose, I don't take losses very well and if we win, I'm not going to be happy about him being on the losing side. I admire the heck out of him.'' The 72-year-old Brown, a Naismith Hall of Famer who is the only coach to win NBA and NCAA titles, is coaching in college for the first time since the Kansas championship, and says he will ''go to high school...

(Harry How/Getty Images)The Texas Rangers will extend a qualifying offer worth $14.1 million to outfielder Nelson Cruz, Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said.Cruz hit .266 with 27 home runs and 76 RBI in 456 plate appearances this past season. If Cruz signs with another team this offseason, the Rangers would get a draft pick as compensation.Cruz, 33, was suspended for 50 games for admitting to using performance enhancing drugs as part of Major League Baseball's investigation into the now-closed South Florida Biogenesis clinic.JAFFE: Gold Gloves join the stat revolution and it's harder to quibble with the winnersHe was activated on Sept. 29 for the American League tie-breaking game to decide the AL's second wild-card team. The Rangers lost the game to the Tampa Bay Rays. "It's a relatively easy decision," Daniels said to the Dallas Morning News. "We'd be happy to have him back on a one-year deal. And we're not prohibited from continuing to talk to him while he sees what the market is. If he signs elsewhere, we get a draft pick that helps us as well."The Rangers have until five days after the completion of the World Series to extend the offer. Cruz would then have up until the 12th day after the end of the World Series to accept or reject the offer.More from the Dallas Morning News:Cruz, 33, is expected to reject the offer in search of a multi-year deal. The bigger issue for the Rangers, who need more power production is whether they will be willing to to extend a two- or three-year offer worth $15 million per season in order to keep Cruz.

Former WBO heavyweight champion Lamon Brewster (35-4, 30 KO´s) will return to the ring on August 29 when he takes on Gbenga Oloukun (16-1, 10 KOs) on the undercard of the WBO Cruiserweight Title Fight between Victor Emilio Ramirez and Marco "Captain" Huck.

Brewster came to fame in Germany thanks to his spectacular KO victories over Wladimir Klitschko and Luan Krasniqi. A win over Oloukun in Halle/Westfalen is a must to put himself back in line for another shot at the world title. "Training is going really well," he added. "I look forward to coming back to Germany."

Diaz: Pacquiao will beat Cotto
By Lee Bates
The dismissal of Evangelista Cotto from training his nephew, welterweight champion Miguel Cotto, has been well documented. Renown cutman Miguel Diaz also was let go prior to Cotto's unification fight with Joshua Clottey this past June. Diaz made some interesting comments to sports broadcaster Juan Larena of "Combate Space" (a network that broadcasts boxing in Spanish all over Latin America) regarding being cut loose and on how he will still be very close to the action come fight night of Cotto-Pacquiao. "I really dont know why he decided to let me go because I didn't have any problems at all with anybody on the team," said Diaz. "The only thing I think of is that his new lawyer saw it as a way to save on costs. I could have easily worked the Clottey corner as the cutman when Clottey fought Miguel but for ethical reasons I didn't do so. However, I will be working Manny Pacquaio's corner as the cutman when he fights Miguel and I am 100% Pacquaio will beat Cotto!"

By Ron Jackson

IBF backing instant replay!
The use of the instant replay in boxing has been at the core of some conversations in the boxing community stemming from the official ruling of the Bradley vs. Campbell fight which took place Saturday, August 1, 2009. In a sport where the instant replay can easily be deferred to, either to support or overturn an official decision, such as in the aforementioned situation, it is rarely used. The International Boxing Federation is releasing this statement in support of the use of the instant replay for immediately correcting or sustaining official decisions that reasonably come into question in bouts sanctioned by the organization.

Jirov is training at the 360 Fitness center in Reseda, California with trainer Shadeed Suluki. His opponent is currently TBA.

R. I. P. Budd Schulberg
Boxing took another tremendous hit today when legendary boxing scribe Budd Schulberg, 95, passed away today from natural causes in Long Island, N.Y. Schulberg is best known for his Oscar-winning screenplay of "On the Waterfront," though his influence in the boxing world has spanned more than half a century. In 1947, Schulberg published "The Harder They Fall," a fictionalized expose of boxing. In 2003, he was voted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame for his contributions as a journalist and historian. Schulberg will be sorely missed.

Mboyane wins vacant SA title!
By Ron Jackson
In a grueling encounter Klaas Mboyane shocked the local fans when he stopped the more experienced former South African and WBC international flyweight champion Nkqubela Gwazela in the eleventh round to win the vacant South African bantamweight title at the Orient Theatre in East London on Sunday afternoon. The title became vacant when Siphiwe Vetyeka won the vacant IBO bantamweight belt at Emperors Palace earlier this month. The southpaw Mboyane (115) looked rather tight as he came out for the first round and was out-punched and backed up by the confident Gwazela (116.6). However, Mboyane did well in rounds two to four as he backed up Gwazela to score with stinging rights and lefts to the body and the head as he varied his attack. In rounds five and six Nkqubela fought of the back foot and used his longer reach to score points and possibly shade the rounds. (more…)

Sinister Seven YKTTW Discussion
|Sinister Seven
A group of seven villains.Description Needs Help Tropeworthy?
In essence, any group of seven villains. The most common number in a group of villains after the Five-Bad Band and Terrible Trio. Often times each member will represent one of the Seven Deadly Sins to further cement their "evilness". Contrast The Magnificent Seven Samurai
Examples: Anime & Manga
Examples: Anime & Manga
- The seven Homunculi in Fullmetal Alchemist (with each one having a deadly sin for a name to boot).
- The Shichibukai of One Piece (though starting around the Impel Down arc, the number of loyal members began to fluctuate, and has not always been at seven).
- The Anten Seven in Outlaw Star.
- In YuYu Hakusho Sensui's gang has seven members plus Sensui himself has seven different personalities.
- The alien villains of the Bloodlines crossover each corresponded to one of the Deadly Sins.
- The Fantastic Four have occasionally battled a team of magic-wielding villains called Salem's Seven.
- Both the first and second versions of Justice League villain team the Injustice Gang had seven members; the second version, led by Lex Luthor, was a deliberate mirror image of the JLA's "Big Seven," essentially making them the seven sins to the League's seven virtues.
- The league of seven evil exes from Scott Pilgrim
- The Seven Deadly Enemies of Man in Shazam. In the original 1940's comics, they were close to the seven deadly sins but not exact (lust wasn't included, for instance). In modern comics they are actually the seven deadly sins.
- Spider-Man's Legion of Doom the Sinister Six once added a member and became the Sinister Seven.
- Parodied in AlanMoore's Supreme with Lord Sin, a demon with seven heads and personalities each based on one of the deadly sins.
- Inverted in The Man Who Was Thursday. The hero initially believes he has joined one of these, but it turns out to be a Sheep in Wolf's Clothing set-up. Interestingly, employs a weekday motif rather than the Seven Deadly Sins.
- The "Significant Seven" humanoid Cylons from Battlestar Galactica (the other 5 were a different faction, to be as spoiler-free as possible).
- The Blue Öyster Cult, Seven Screaming Dizbusters, part of Sandy Pearlman's Imaginos cycle and to do with, insofar as the Word Salad lyrics can be deciphered, seven renegade demons who are so badass that they've rebelled against Lucifer and gone it alone. The song suggests Lucifer has put out his force and the Seven are fighting a last stand with only death and oblivion to look forward to.
- In the final episode of Blackadder (the first series) Blackadder gathers the six most evil men in England (with himself as the seventh) to take over the country.
- Asura's Wrath has the Seven Dieties, although one of them performs a Heel-Face Turn.
- In Devil May Cry 3 there are 7 main devils/bosses guarding the Temen-ni-Gru.
- The villains of the first Overlord game were this, having been the 7 heroes who defeated your predecessor and are now corrupted. Oh, and you're their amnesiac Sixth Ranger.
- In Star Wars: Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight, Kyle Katarn is opposed by the Seven Dark Jedi.

Quick stop to St. Louis
... looking at my phone when it happened! When we got almost to St. Louis, we got off the highway to go to a place called Malcolm W. Martin Memorial Park. I read this was the best spot to get a picture of the Arch and the St. Louis skyline. When we got there we had the place to ourselves so we got some great photos! We then got back on the road since we still had about 2 1/2 hrs ahead of us before our campsite for the night in the Mark Twain state park near Hannibal, ...
Good food is good
We stayed overnight in a truck stop…first time in a while, actually. It's funny to compare our experiences with staying in truck stops at the beginning of the season to now. Five months ago, it was still unknown and I felt a bit wary of staying overnight at a Pilot/Flying J…I never slept well because of the noise (well, that still happens) and I never quite felt safe. Nowadays, we park, cover the windshield for privacy, and settle in as though ...
Great start, sweltering heat!
Today was a wonderful day! We left Athens around 5:00, stopped and got Isom's peaches for a house gift and to share with the teachers in the Colorado group, then hit the road. We arrived in St. Louis around noon and looked around outside. ...

"At this time in my life, I'm ready to accept or own a kind of romance and melancholy or melodrama that I wasn't ready to reveal before. It was always there in my inner life as an artist, but I was too afraid to share it."

Filmed in 2012 at Manhattan's Park Avenue Armory, artist Ann Hamilton discusses her installation the event of a thread, which occupied the Armory's cavernous drill hall. Hamilton, whose artwork often deals with the connection between text and textiles, was present at the Armory every day during the installation's one-month run. During that time she was able to witness the various ways visitors chose to engage with the different though interconnected elements of the artwork.
