Well Designed and Executed!
At first, I was a bit put-off by the price, but since I have a few different business ideas I wanted to model, I took the plunge and purchased this. In short, I'm really glad I did! The visual drag-and-drop layout of the categorized "stickies" works VERY well when brainstorming out a new business model idea. Could you do this with paper stickies and a whiteboard? Sure. However, having it on the iPad just seems to lend itself to a smooth experience that helps the creative process.
I highly recommend watching the included tutorial videos before you start using the application. It's not difficult at all, but the videos give you an idea of the app's capabilities quickly and they give you an overview for thinking about your particular business model. They aren't long, and they get you up and running fast.
For an app of this price, I'd expect a few more features such as wireless print capability, Dropbox and/or iCloud integration, and a bit more control over the font sizing (and colors, styles, typefaces, etc.), folder management for the individual canvases, and a few other small details, but I'm guessing they'll come with time. The base functionality, however, appears to be rock solid, well thought-out, and highly usable, so these are trivial details.
If you have one business model to work-up, I'd probably use their paper form with sticky notes, but if you have more than one (or if you're a serial entrepreneur), this is an easy purchase.
Awesome concept, sloppy execution and awful customer service
Overpriced sticky note app.
You can't input your own formulas. There's no way to see what their formulas currently are either. And the current formulas don't seem to match newer kinds of business models, which is ironic because of how encouraging the book is about invention.
I watched the videos and looked at examples and I still didn't get how it all fit together. I asked customer support for help and they apologized and sent me the video links again.
Even the sticky note part of the app has bugs and quirks to get used to. The export options are outdated since you can only share them by emailing. Could we share them straight to another app, like most other apps do?
I'd like a refund, please.
Good app but it will leave you wanting...
So the business model basics are covered in the app with a good template, supported by videos, probing questions and easy of navigation.
Then it falls flat with no export to a word document or presentation, no cloud sharing, no unpacking of formulas or editing formulas thus it ends up just being an expensive sticky note app.
The purchase will be worth it once these upgrades are done.

If no lights came on, chances are it isn't electrical. Check to make sure the fluid is clean and full. If it is, you need to have fluid pressure checked. The converter or front pump may be bad.
If it was the torque converter that crack or failed, shouldn't there be fluid leaking out.

Dec 28 - Indian girl commits suicide over alleged gang r*pe
|3 years ago

New Delhi (CNN) -- Indian police have arrested three suspects named in a suicide note left by a teenager who claimed she had been gang r*ped, as anger in the country grows over the rising number of violent crimes committed against women.
The 17-year-old girl died Wednesday after ingesting poison, according to Paramjit Singh Gill, the inspector-general of police in the Patiala district of Punjab in the country's north.
In her suicide note, the girl blamed her alleged rapists for causing her death. Three of the suspects, including a female accomplice, have since been arrested, Gill said.
The unnamed girl claimed she was gang r*ped during the Hindu festival of Diwali on November 13. However, a formal case wasn't registered by police until 14 days later.
Two police officers involved in the case have been fired and another has been suspended for their handling of the r*pe complaint. Gill said an investigation was underway into allegations made by the girl's family that the officers pressured her to withdraw her complaint.
The teenager's death comes after days of mass protests over the gang r*pe of a 23-year-old woman on a bus in New Delhi on December 16.
The attackers were alleged to have a.ssaulted the woman and her male companion, robbing them of their belongings before dumping them at the side of a road, according to a police statement. Six suspects are now under arrest, including the bus driver and a minor.
The woman's male companion has since been discharged from hospital, but the violent s3xual a.ssault left the woman near death and in need of intensive care.
She was flown to Singapore for treatment on Thursday where doctors described her condition Friday as "extremely critical."
"Our medical team's investigations upon her arrival at the hospital yesterday showed that in addition to her prior cardiac arrest, she also had infection of her lungs and abdomen, as well as significant brain injury. The patient is currently struggling against the odds, and f!ghting for her life," said Kelvin Loh, the chief executive officer of Mount Elizabeth Hospital.
Authorities haven't released the name of the r*pe victim, but protesters are calling her "Damini," which means "lightning" in Hindi. "Damini" is also a 1993 Bollywood film whose lead female character f!ghts for a housemaid, a victim of a s3xual a.ssault.
The brutal attack triggered a wave of protests that started in the Raisina Hills area of New Delhi on Saturday, and spread to other areas of the city. Demonstrators marched through the streets waving signs that read, "Hang them till death," and "Stop this shame."
Police aimed water cannon at the crowd, after some demonstrators tried to break through the security barriers erected around the government district, parliament building and presidential palace. Protesters claimed they were injured in clashes, and returned to the streets on Sunday shouting anti-government slogans.
More demonstrations were held on Thursday, when elderly and middle-aged women joined younger students to demand greater action and protection. They say the government is not doing enough to address the alarming incidence of r*pe in India.
Reported r*pe cases have surged more than tenfold over the past 40 years -- from 2,487 in 1971 to 24,206 in 2011, according to official figures. New Delhi alone reported 572 r*pes last year and more than 600 in 2012.
The government announced plans Thursday to "name and shame" convicted rapists by posting their names, images and addresses on official websites, according to the Times of India.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh described the safety of women as his government's "highest concern" in a meeting with senior government officials.
"Women and girls represent half the population and our society has not been fair to this half. Their socio-economic status is improving, but gaps persist," he said in speech Thursday.
"The emergence of women in public spaces, which is an absolutely essential part of social emancipation, is accompanied by growing threats to their safety and security," Singh said.
He reiterated that the December 16 bus r*pe case would be dealt with in a speedy manner.
"There can be no meaningful development without the active participation of half the population and this participation simply cannot take place if their security and safety are not a.ssured," Singh said.
Seema Sirohi, Indian Council on Global Relations, told CNN that most women in India had their own stories of s3xual harassment and abuse.
"To be a woman in India is not an easy proposition. Every woman has experienced some kind of abuse on public transportation, lewd remarks on the street. No matter how conservatively you are dressed, you are still open season for the men," she said.
"There are a lot of reasons why this happens, but the patriarchal system is one, a lack of policing is another, and general treatment of women which is not equal to men, even though it may be so under the law," Sirohi added.
The Indian Cabinet plans to set up a commission to look into the r*pe and suggest measures to improve women's safety. The commission has three months to submit its report to the government.

Fantastic place to stay
This is really great place to stay, I almost dont' want to review it to keep it a secret!! I stayed in the 6 bed dorm for 3 nights, it has a nice location with a few restaurants on the street but the road behind is full of great places to eat cheaply. You can walk to chinatown in approx 20mins, Bukit Bintan is about 5-10mins walk with several shopping malls in that area.
The room its self was really clean and the beds were comfortable, the a/c is only on from 6pm-8am but the room had a fan so it was fine. There are 2 bathrooms one with a cold shower and one with a hot shower though I didnt really have to que for either too long. There are several computers in the living area and internet access is very reasonable, there is a big tv and hundereds of dvd's which you can watch when ever you like. No alcohol is allowed in the hostel but that wasn't really a problem, it just means its not a party hostel which is great.
If you are travelling solo its a great place to meet other travellers as its very sociable, this perhaps is due to the fact its fairly small.
The staff are all SO helpful and really cannot do enough for you.
I want to return to KL just so I can stay here again!!

Just a short walk away from shopping and food!
The hostel is housed in a 2-storey small shophouse along a nice street lined with restaurants and shops. Because of its size, it can only accomodate a total of 12 guests at any one time. We paid RM65 for a twin room.
Guest rooms are upstairs, while the common area (for watching tv, surfing the net etc) is downstairs in the living room, which adjoins the kitchen and laundry area. Guests are charged for using laundry and internet facilities. The bathroom facility is shared.
Light sleepers may wish to use earplugs as the guest rooms do not have actual ceilings. Conversations conducted in the room can be heard from the outside corridor and vice versa. The sound of people coming and going in the middle of the night is also unavoidable.
Red Palm is conveniently located in the Bukit Bintang area, just a 5 minute walk away from the Bukit Bintang shopping strip and a 2 minute walk away from popular night food street, Jalan Alor.
If you need directions to anywhere, or any help at all, just ask the friendly and knowledgable people running the place.

Nicest guesthouse of my whole trip !
It's the first time in my life that I have dinner with the owners of the guesthouse I stay in.
That makes all the difference !
And it's clean, quiet, AC in the corridors so that your room stays fresh enough.
All the amenities, PCs, washing machine, DVDs all day round, and breakfast is included
There's only one shower, though, but you don't wait much.
Unique Quality: Them !
And us, by the way... If you're cool you'll feel just like home :)
This place has a much better value than a 4 star hotel. Because human friendliness, exchanges, smiles, are more important than a dryer in your bathroom. So, even when I'm billionaire I will continue to go there !
Directions: Bukit Bintang Monorail Stn, walk down Jalan Bukit Bintang towards KFC, then right, and second left
Don't be surprised, there's no sign on the door

Imagine having bought silver in 1939 with the GOVY killing it; at
153 to ONE ratio to gold.... (I wish!)
.23 cents to $35.00 gold = 153 to 1.
and then selling it in say, 1965 (25 years or so later) for $1.29 when money was worth something...?
Or better yet, BUYING in 2-1-2002 at $4.25 oz. silver and selling at $20.32 in 2008?
Or BUYING today at $18.00 and selling later at say... you name it, the PRICE will be RIGHT!
Good LUCK. It appears that the US dollar is the best looking HAG in the bar at the closing time of all G30 currencies...
Like I said it can make you sick ...
It's all about timing...

Using Wisconsin's ambition to become a global water-technology hub as an example, government and civic leaders on Friday announced plans to do the same thing for a much bigger sector of the state's economy: energy and power.
The centerpiece of the effort will be an Energy Innovation Center, to be built beginning in September inside the former Eaton Corp. research building on Milwaukee's north side. It will include an incubator and laboratory for developing energy and power technologies that could help some of the state's largest businesses grow.
The Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. and Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority on Friday announced $900,000 in funding for the center, which will be located in a building that already houses the Mid-West Energy Research Consortium, a public-private energy collaborative involving engineering schools and area companies.
The building is in the 30th St. Industrial Corridor, also known as Century City, an area that includes the former Tower Automotive factory and that both Gov. Scott Walker and Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett have agreed is an area for targeted economic development.
In announcing the funding, Walker and others cited the example of the Global Water Center — a water-technology research center and incubator in Milwaukee's Fifth Ward — and the need for Wisconsin to support key economic clusters.
In this case, the state wants to help a mainstay of Wisconsin industry: long-standing companies such as consortium members Rockwell Automation Inc., Johnson Controls Inc. and A.O. Smith Corp. that focus on everything from industrial motors and automation equipment to energy-efficient building controls.
"From the research here, if we find more cost-effective, more reliable ways to provide power, that helps everyone who powers up their home," Walker said. "For employers in manufacturing, cost-effective sources of reliable power are not only a must-have, they're a competitive advantage."
The first phase of construction is expected to take one year, with a second phase to follow over the next year. WEDC, the state's commerce agency, is providing $850,000, while WHEDA is pitching in $50,000.
The announcement is a significant step in carrying out the vision developed five years ago by local academic and business leaders to establish a center of excellence in Milwaukee in the energy, power and control sector, supporters said.
The proposed center and the regional partnership backing it were highlighted by the Obama administration when it announced this year that the Milwaukee region has been named an advanced manufacturing center of excellence — giving the region a leg up when competing for funding from a variety of federal agencies.
Saying the city wants to build the region's energy and power cluster into a "smart energy hub," Barrett said at a time that other regions have turned away from manufacturing, Milwaukee and the state are investing in core industries.
"Let's play our long suit," Barrett said. "It's something we're doing with water technology, and now it's time to do it here, with energy, power and controls. It makes a lot of sense. The city has decided it's going to double down on these industries that have historically been the backbone of this region, first with the water center and now here."
Focusing on the energy sector makes sense given its size and importance to Wisconsin's economy. A WEDC study last year about the state's economic future identified electrical equipment manufacturing as Wisconsin's largest sector in terms of gross product, and one of its fastest-growing, up 31% between 2008 and 2011.
The development of the Global Water Center in Milwaukee underscored the commitment the region and state were making to water technology, said Ryan Murray, chief operating officer at WEDC. "With energy power and control, we have an equally strong case to make that we have the expertise and density and really the global companies that we should be on people's radar screen in the very same way," he said.
The center will serve multiple roles, as a place for research collaboration and as an incubator where energy and power-sector business start-ups get assistance to grow and create jobs.
The center's development is being steered by the research consortium along with Greentown Labs, which has developed an incubator for clean-technology businesses outside Boston, and the Clean Tech Open. Milwaukee architectural firm Kahler Slater is designing the center.
The former Eaton research building includes several floors of vacant and usable lab space, said Alan Perlstein, the center's executive director.
"We were blessed by having the old Eaton research facility available," he said. "There are great high-voltage labs with multiple different sources of power, and voltage and safety systems in place that are a perfect starting point to create the infrastructure that will be an accelerator."
The funding will help the consortium develop 70,000 square feet within the 184,000-square-foot building. Ultimately, the center is projected to cost $9.6 million.
"In its heyday this was a premier research facility," Perlstein said during a tour of the 52-year-old building. "It's not going to take too much to repurpose it."
To date the research consortium supported $2.5 million in academic engineering research sponsored by member companies, as well as market research on key growth areas, including microgrids, distributed energy and energy efficiency.
Friday's announcement marks a milestone in moving toward a bricks-and-mortar center for an industry-academic collaborative that Marquette University President Mike Lovell helped found when he was dean of UW-Milwaukee's engineering school.
"The Fifth Ward wasn't exactly a happening place when we decided to go in there" for the water center, he said. "It becomes a destination for people and really helps facilitate collaboration and foster innovation."
The research consortium has grown from three engineering schools and four companies when it was founded in Milwaukee to 76 members, mainly in Wisconsin but stretching from Montana to Pittsburgh, Perlstein said. The group's goal is to expand to more than 100 members by next summer.

After quarterbacking the New Orleans Saints to the Super Bowl XLIV championship, former Purdue great Drew Brees joined the prestigious roster of athletes to exclaim, "I'm going to Disney World!"
Almost four years later, Boilermaker athletics will again be represented at the famed resort outside Orlando, Fla., when the Purdue men's basketball team begins Old Spice Classic play on Thursday. HP Fieldhouse, the tournament venue, is part of the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Disney World.
But as Purdue guard Terone Johnson told his teammates last week, this is a business trip, not a ...

Lemon-Basil Chicken Marsala Recipe
"This melt-in-your-mouth Chicken Marsala is based on a recipe picked up in a cooking class," recalls Greta Igl in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. "But the basil and splash of lemon are my own touches. We've tried this dish in many restaurants, but always agree our homemade version tastes best. It's so easy…and if we're lucky enough to have leftovers, they reheat beautifully in the microwave."
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (5 ounces each)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon minced fresh basil or 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- Dash salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 2-1/4 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 cup marsala wine or chicken broth
- 1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1. Flatten chicken to 1/2-in. thickness. In a resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, basil, salt and pepper. Add chicken, one piece at a time, and shake to coat.
- 2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken in 1 tablespoon butter for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 170°. Remove and keep warm.
- 3. In the same skillet, saute mushrooms in remaining butter until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add wine and lemon juice, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by a third.
- 4. Return chicken to the pan. Sprinkle with cheese. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 2 servings.

I just recently moved to Denver from Chicago where I finally decided the winters were a little too much for me (and I missed living near mountains). I grew up in Kansas and although I didn't go to KU I am a huge Jayhawks fan (they make it pretty easier when they are so good every year :)). My friends would describe me as someone who is very caring with a witty sense of humor. I love people making others laugh and think it is important to not take life too seriously and to always remember to laugh a lot. I try to live every day to the fullest and talk to those I love and care about the most and tell them this often. I am extremely close with my family and consider my mom one of my best friends, she even made both my pics here!

I see these posts on Ilfochrome, but I also see how Ilford suggests a different filter pack between Fuji, Kodak E6 and Kodachrome. This has been my experience as well as I noted above.
I wonder if any of you have photographed the same scene with Kodachrome and Ektachrome and then tried printing them at the same color balance? Knowing the dye sets of the two films, I would believe that it would be hard to print them unless there was a change made in the filter pack to correct for the bias of the E6-Kodachrome dye set.

Tlokwe votes in ANC mayorComment on this story
TLOKWE-4TH-LD-DA by Ahmed Areff
POTCHEFSTROOM Feb 26 Sapa
Maphetle Maphetle has been returned as mayor of the Tlokwe municipality in the North West on Tuesday.
He won by 31 votes to 21 votes for former DA mayor Annette Combrink.
As the results were announced ANC members in the council erupted into applause and cheers.
Earlier a vote of no confidence in Combrink was passed by the municipal council.
The vote and the motion of no confidence was passed by 30 votes to 22.
As Combrink left the desk at the front of the council house, Councillor David Legoete who brought the motion, gave her a mock standing ovation.
Combrink pulled a face and gave him a thumbs down sign.
Legoete brought the motion, on behalf of the African National Congress caucus in Tlokwe city council, to have Combrink removed from office with immediate effect.
In the motion, Legoete said Combrink was a member of the Democratic Alliance and as such was bound by the policies of the DA.
"The major constituents within the jurisdiction of the Tlokwe City Council voted for the ANC and therefore expect the executive mayor to abide by the national, provincial and local policies, and manifestos of the ANC to be implemented for purposes of service delivery to them," he submitted.
"It is 1/8untenable 3/8 for the Tlokwe city council, which has the majority of councillors representing the ANC, 1/8to be 3/8 led by a member of the DA in the executive."
Fighting ANC factions passed a motion of no confidence in party-aligned mayor Maphetle in November.
He was replaced by Combrink -- the first DA mayor in the province -- when she defeated ANC candidate Lucky Tsagae by 20
votes to 19 for the mayoral position.

The first time I ever used this mask was actually last night. I decided to get this mask because of the great reviews and I found it at Ulta. When I put this on, I noticed a tingly sensation, but nothing painful or unbearable. In fact, I enjoyed this because I could feel the product working on my face. The mask itself was easy to put on and it spread evenly. When I put this on, I made sure to avoid my eye area as much as possible, but it still made my eyes water and sting, however it went away after getting used to the smell. The scent is alright but it is pretty strong and it smells like cleaning liquid. After about 20-30, I took this off. My pores felt a lot tighter and the pimple brewing on my forehead significantly decreased, and even more so the next day. When I woke up today, my skin looked and felt so much better! My blackheads were barely noticeable and it dried out my break outs really well. I like this mask more than the avocado and oatmeal mask that is also by Freeman. I definitely recommend this product! And I will be repurchasing this again as long as this mask is still available!

I can't believe I just found this. For the past month, I broke out in crazy acne across both cheeks. I have tried a few acne masks to help with the situation. But stopped cause of all the chemicals in them. I have tried many many masks. And nothing feels as good as this or even as fresh is this. Seriously.
1. Feels ohsogood on your face. Like lathering fresh premium butter on bread. So good.
2. It is minty. But not till it stings your skin. I am addicted to anything minty cause it really alleviates the heat from your pimples. And I heard mint is good for pimples. So this is good.
3. It leaves my skin really easily. And not just that. It leaves my skin very smooth, and very very silky. (Like having aloevera on your face and washing it after. That silky/slimy, whatever you call it)
4. There's this refreshing smell. It sends you straight to de-stress zone.
5. Because I am really trying to get rid of my acne, ive been using this nearly daily. And I think it's quickening all that healing process.
1. ONLY ONE. My eyes sting from using this mask. I would think its the fragrance, but im not sure. It stings my eyes, and my eyes get all painful and watery and i'll have to leave them closed for a while before opening it up slowly.
Hope this helps anyone! (Oh, and i actually feel like buying all their other masks.)

Unfortunately this face mask gave me really bad rash and it ruined my face it has been all dotty and blotchy for at least 1 week and its just going down right now but i'm very upset that this happened to me ...! I wouldn't buy this again very very disappointed about it !!!

This is a good mask for the price and for the amount of product that you get. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and clean. I'm not sure that it has done anything more than that for my blemish-prone sensitive skin so although I am satisfied, I would likely not purchase it again. Be careful when applying near your eyes, it burns and will make them sting and water like crazy.

This shrinks up my acne when I use this mask. It works great. My skin feels smooth and it helps me break out less. Love it!!

After the first 2 times I used this mask, I was ready to climb up the table and sing praises of how amazing this mask is. The Mint & Lemon came in a trio with 2 other Freeman masks from Rite Aid, it was one of the gift sets that they had for christmas. For $10 I got 3 masks, talk about a bargain. Now onto the actual mask, since it's a clay mask I love that it sucks all the oil and gunk out of my skin. My skin is oily overall but especially in the t-zone. During the warmer months I can leave this mask on for 20 or more minutes and my skin wouldn't dry out. When it's winter I can't since my skin is drier, so I just do 10-15 min but that's still enough time to suck up all the excess oil. Another reason why I love this mask is because it calms the redness in my skin. I haven't found anything that has done that, my skin does get red still later in the day but not as red if I didn't use the mask. This is the perfect pick me up for your skin. And if you have any active breakouts it can help dry them out. You can be very sure I'll be running out the door to get another one when I finish this.

I have so many freeman masks, and this one is probably my favourite. It's the one I use if my skin is really freaking out. I even use it as a spot treatment overnight sometimes. When you rinse it off, it minimizes the appearance of your pores. (Doesn't last forever but is nice while it lasts). It also dries up any blemishes - not completely but it helps. I'm almost out of this & will repurchase so I always have it on hand.

Skin: Very Dry, Fair, Cool

As a self-proclaimed Freeman fanatic I absolutely 100% believe this is THE BEST mask they make. Seriously, it can do no wrong. The smell is subtle and refreshing, not at all overpowering. It's a fairly thick consistency and can be difficult to spread evenly across your face. However, once you get it on it literally works magic. As it dries you can see the nastiness surfacing from your pores and be mad about how you totally exfoliate and still the grossness insists on clogging up your face like little black polka dots. So when you wash it off your pores are clean, tightened and your skin is glowing. Not only does it remove blackheads though - it also has magical wizard powers when it comes to pimples and the dreaded hormonal cystic acne. The smaller zits will most likely be gone overnight after using this stuff and cleansing your face. The harder cysts can be seriously taken down, if not taken out, by using it as a spot treatment overnight. The only possible downside is that if you have extremely dry skin, like yours truly, it really should only be used once or twice a week and followed up with a wonderful moisturizer, otherwise you run the risk of stripping your face or making it so dry that it hurts to raise your eyebrows (this is a thing). All of that said, if I was forced to pick one mask for the rest of my life it would be this one, hands down. Go out and try it! I hope you get results as wonderful as mine!

This does help with my acne but it is quite irritating after I left the mask on for 2 minutes or so. I think it's a really great mask, but it's sister the dead sea mineral one won my heart. I own both so i alternate using them along with other masks, but I just enjoy using that one and I always find myself going for that one much more. My cheek area is quite sensitive and that one gets rid of my acne just as well. I wouldn't buy it again because it's irritating during my dry skin days. I can't imagine how i'll be in the winter time. :(
For you people with oily skin w/ acne that is not sensitive, this product is great.
For people with combo skin w/ acne I would say try the blue dead sea mineral one.

I have used pretty much all of the Freeman face masks, & this one is BY FAR the best one out of all of them. This smells amazing (like real lemons), dries fast, removes all dirt, oil, impurities, & literally makes any pimples or little bumps dissapear by the next day. This mask is truly wonderful. I don't have one bad thing to say about it. For how cheap this is, ($3.99), it is a steal! I will continue to buy this for life. If you're debating on whether or not to buy this, don't hesitate....buy this!

Changelings are already immortal and don't give two shits about what would benefit solids, Vorta are also technically immortal since they just dump their memories in a new clone when they die, and Jem'Hadar are mass produced canon fodder that are already easily replaced so there is no incentive to use it on them.
And chances are they were probably already planing to kill all the Cardassians, so no they probably wouldn't be considered either.

You are arriving a small and beautiful town in France called St. Jean Pied-de-Port. Your heavy backpack hurts your shoulders. Your goal is to walk the Way of St. James - an ancient pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. 800 km across northern Spain only by foot. You decided to leave mostly everything at home. All you own is in your backpack. Not much. You start to doubt because you don't know where to sleep tonight, don't know where to eat, don't know anything. But, deep in your heart, there is this feeling that everything will be good by the end of the day. Now you feel it. You are a pilgrim.
Welcome to another world."
The Documentary
ultreia. will be an experimental documentary about the Way of St. James - an ancient pilgrimage route (since 1993 UNESCO World Heritage Site) - itself and the people who decided to walk this way to Santiago de Compostela.
Why experimental?
From the first day on I will take a deep, intense and realistic look on the route and the pilgrims. I will interview them about their life and fears, their hopes and dreams. About everything they want to talk about. There will be no fake interviews or planned scences in the documentary. Just life as it happens on the route to Santiago de Compostela.
Therefore I decided not to make much plans about the documentation. This is why the documentary will be experimental. The story will grow with every day I'm on the route. It's like life itself. You can make plans but the fate don't care about them. That's the experimental part in it.
And every scene will be written by life itself. That's my aspire of a good documentary.
You do it alone?
I know it will be a hard job. I'm alone, it's nearly the hottest month in Spain and it's the first time for me making such a project. I also have to walk up to 40 km a day and search for stories and beautiful pictures. But I'll do that no matter how hard it will be. For all pilgrims who ever walked this route and for those who wants to walk there one day.
Why are you doing this?
After I quit my job in December 2012 I decided to make a break to have some time to search for my passion. Then one day in March I felt that I have to go the Way of St. James and I instantly bought the train ticket - only one way. I started this journey and meet beautiful places - and most important - wonderful people. I decided to follow my heart and not listen to what my head says to me (this is what I did for the last 30 years and I was really tired of it).
After I finished the way it takes a while to find myself. I was confused because of so much wonderful impressions on the way. But, I change nearly everything in my life. I settled over to another country and had the time to think about everything without distractions. The camino starts working again in me. And than, I found what I searched for such a long time. I discovered that I will tell stories from now on. Stories about life. Stories that make people smile, sad or thoughtful but also give them hope to make the best out of their life.
About me
I'm Michael. I'm a 31 year old guy from Germany. This year I walked the Camino to Santiago - an ancient pilgrimage route for around 800 km (500 miles). I started in St. Jean Pied-de-Port (France) and walked the whole way to Santiago de Compostela (Spain).
After I finished the way, I was overwhelmed by how much this experience touched my heart and soul. I talked to many other pilgrims and had wonderful talks about nearly every subject of life with them. To many pilgrims this way is like a start into a new chapter in their lives. There is this magic atmosphere which touches you so deep that you can't describe this feelings in words. This is where I feel that I need to catch the spirit of the way in pictures and stories.
The Preperation
At the moment I buy all the needed gear. I only own a MacBook Pro to do the post production but I still need much more to capture beautiful pictures. This is where the money is needed.
The money will be invested into the following things:
Film Equipment
- Camera
- Lenses
- Audio Field Recorder
- Miscellaneuos stuff (batteries, filters, storage cards, viewfinder, monopod etc.)
- Apple Final Cut X
- Miscellaneuos software (Compressor, Audio, etc.)
Post Production
- Support in the post production process
- Flight and train tickets
- Food and shelter (min. for 6 weeks)
Thats around 15.000 Euro I need to start the project. But no matter how much it will be in the end of the founding phase. I will just start the production with my own money. It's my dream to do that. So I'll move forward or as the pilgrims say to each other when they see on the route:
What else can you do?
If it's not possible for you to leave me a dollar that's not a problem at all. Don't feel sad. I'm also happy when you spread my project throughout a blog, twitter or facebook.
I'm grateful for every little help.
That's it. Not more or less to give my dream a chance.
Thank you very much for your support.
Buen Camino

swimsuit 01/15/2014
By Sandy
We had fallen in love with a suit very similar to this for a whole lot more money and so were delighted to find this one. It is of good quality and material, but this one cuts very close to the remaining side (as you can see in the picture) and in our opinion, that detracts a bit from the mystique. Other than that, very happy with the product and very happy with the service

I am proficient at wp.com, but have no programming experience and don't want to be in over my head. So, I am hoping for a seamless set-up. I am wondering why WP doesn't "recommend" Go Daddy. Any negatives with Go Daddy hosting a wp.org site? Thank you.

Camera exposure placement is one, a camera filter possibly, print exposure placement choices surely, maybe negative masking...
But the sky isn't dark, there isn't any sky, the image is shooting down onto the rainforest, you can see the trees in the background, so all the photographer had to do was make the mist stand out and burn.


text: Sa wat dee krup. Sa bai dee mai krup? I just got my suit sometime last week and I just wanted to let you know that it was PERFECT! Don´t change a thing. Because of how perfect this suit is, I will continue to order suits from you, so expect another order in about 6 weeks or so. I cannot describe how very pleased I am with the fit. I also like the heavier material on this suit than the lighter material on the last suit I ordered. Dee mahk krup!! I hope all is well with you and I look forward to hearing from you. Respectfully,

Five-Spice Scallops
Source: Eating Well
Notes: We prefer "dry" sea scallops (not treated with sodium tripolyphosphate, or STP). Scallops treated with STP ("wet" scallops) are mushy, less flavorful and will not brown properly.Often a blend of cinnamon, cloves, fennel seed, star anise and Szechuan peppercorns, five-spice powder was originally considered a cure-all miracle blend encompassing the five elements (sour, bitter, sweet, pungent, salty). Look for it in the supermarket spice section.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted across party lines, 367 to 55, Tuesday to restore cash to the Highway Trust Fund, which is teetering on insolvency.
The trust fund provides money to states for bridge, road and other transportation projects and is expected to run short on money starting next month without a stopgap from Congress.
Monday night, Hodgenville City Council reversed a decision it made last fall. Council members voted to rejoin the LaRue County Chamber of Commerce.
Last September, the council was divided on the benefits offered by the Chamber – and former mayor Terry Cruse said the membership cost wasn't budgeted.
Interim Mayor Kenny DeVore said Monday he had received a letter from the organization inviting the City to join at a "reduced" level: $2,500 annually (the same amount that was requested last fall).
Toni Burton has been hired as Hodgenville City Clerk.
City Council approved the recommendation of Interim Mayor Kenny DeVore Monday and Burton began her duties Tuesday.
Three of the council members screened applications, narrowed the field to seven applicants, and forwarded their top-two selections to DeVore.
Her employment is provisional on the outcome of a drug and credit screen and a background check. She will be on probation for one year.
"She won't be sworn in until those come back," said DeVore.
A hearing has been scheduled to consider a complaint filed by Elizabethtown resident Richard Leal against Hardin County Emergency Medical Services.
The Kentucky Board of Emergency Medical Services' preliminary inquiry board will review the complaint during a 10 a.m. meeting Aug. 12 at its Lexington office, according to Deputy Executive Director Charles O'Neal.
Monday, June 30, the LaRue County Fiscal Court held a brief special meeting to discuss closing the 2013-14 budget, the acceptance of an oil bid, and a revised copy of the health insurance renewals. The meeting was called to meet the deadline to close accounts at the end of the fiscal year
Hodgenville City Council met in a special session Monday to hold second reading of the 2014-15 budget ordinance.
The budget is almost identical to last year's.
The budget anticipates $336,800 in occupational taxes; $296,000 in city taxes; and $285,000 in insurance premium tax. Another $532,000 is budgeted for sewer revenue; $790,000 for water revenue.
Expenditures include $587,000 for police; $490,000 for city/capital outlay; $55,250 for fire department debt; $25,000 for park and recreation; and $78,200 for Red Hill Cemetery.
LaRue County Fiscal Court has approved a three-year agreement with Emergency Communications Network for CodeRed, a system that will allow notifications, such as severe weather or chemical spills affecting roadways, to instantly be relayed through email, text messages, and home or cell phones.
Magistrates meeting at the courthouse in Hodgenville June 24 heard Judge-executive Tommy Turner say that more than 80 Kentucky Counties have the coverage.
The Kentucky Department of Revenue has set the 2014 State Real Property Tax Rate at 12.2 cents per $100 of assessed value. Kentucky Revised Statute 132.020 requires the Department of Revenue to set the real property rate no later than July 1 of each year.

A hearing was scheduled June 13 in the lawsuit filed over the results of the May 20 Republican primary race for the 24th District state representatives, but the court is no closer to a decision.
The 24th District includes Green, LaRue and Marion counties.
LaRue Countians have an opportunity to influence community planning by completing a short survey.
The Land of Lincoln Planning and Zoning is offering a nine question survey on their website www.laruecounty.org/pzsurvey and in the June 18 issue of The LaRue County Herald News (See page 5A.) Paper ballots are available at three offices in the LaRue County Courthouse (planning and zoning, county clerk and PVA) and Hodgenville City Hall.

Interesting concept but...
July 13, 2015
Bought more for curiousity and wanted something that would save me time for my waterless washes. I like the spray pattern. It can do a very fine even mist which is great. What I don't like is how most of the spray is on the release of the handle so I can't really control the amount of product that comes out. Also expensive compared to traditional spray bottles. We'll see about durability...
Pros:Fine even spray pattern. Potential saves hand effort and time.
Cons:Hard to control amount of product dispensed due to most of the product is sprayed on the release phase.

Best Spray Bottle You Can Own.
February 6, 2015
These bottles spray when you squeeze the trigger AND when you release the trigger. This makes spraying very fast and efficient. The bottle seems to spray better the longer I own it.
Pros:Sprays when trigger is pulled and released Heavy-duty plastic Sprays every time; never fails

Great for waterless wash!
November 20, 2014
This spray bottle is great for waterless wash! I use it with meguiar's d115, absolutely love it ! And it great for any product you want to spray on a large surface or just simply wanna save some time.
Pros:high quality fine mist great for waterless wash

Great for waterless wash and QD
September 7, 2014
I have several of these and I love using them for waterless wash and clay lube. Any time I would be pulling the trigger a lot and want a fine mist. If I want volume, I go with a garden sprayer. The kwazar has a much finer mist and consumer very little product when used correctly. mine have been very durable using non-corrosive chemicals
Pros:very fine mist saves trigger pulls great for washerless wash and clay lube

Warriors owner Joe Lacob: 'We have to win a championship'
More NBA: Power Rankings | Expert Picks | Latest news & notes
With a win Friday night, the Golden State Warriors will have clinched back-to-back playoff berths for the first time since 1991 and 1992. In less than four years with Joe Lacob and partners owning the Warriors, this franchise has already seen more success than it had in the previous 20 years. This ownership group removed all of the people it didn't see fit for being a part of their vision moving forward and brought in new people to turn this into a first rate organization.
But none of the success is going to matter to Lacob if this team doesn't eventually win an NBA title. That seems to be his only goal and one he's communicated quite fervently to the Warriors' fans out there. According to Inside the Warriors, Lacob said the team has to win a championship or he'll feel like a failure with this business venture.
"I'm 58 years old now, and I've been successful. I've made a lot of money. I've done a lot of things I've wanted to do in life, but now we have this new venture, which is the Warriors. A second career, if you will, and all I can think about it is, we have to win a championship. I will be a failure. We will be a failure if we do not win the championship. So that's what drives me. We promised a lot of people things. We brought in (president and chief operation officer) Rick Welts and all these people you might have met tonight that are tremendous at their jobs.
They are incredible. They are so good, and we are all driven the same way. We are completely connected. We are focused. We are driven as a unit, as we. Because that's really what it's about. It's not one person. It's not me. It's we. You get things done with other people. That's how you succeed. And we are driven together to bring this thing home to the Bay Area."
This may seem like the obvious thing for Lacob to say but not all owners come out and openly have this kind of goal to share with their fans. It puts pressure on the players, the coaching staff, the front office, and himself to find a way to put the right mix of successful people together in order to accomplish this goal, one that hasn't happened for this franchise since 1975.
The Warriors haven't been the title contenders they were hoping to bill themselves as heading into this season. Injuries, coaching, and poor play from the bench have kept them from being everything they were cracked up to be in the preseason after acquiring Andre Iguodala in free agency. He's not willing to say whether or not this team has met his expectations:
"We'll address that at the end of the year did we meet our expectations. No. 1 goal is to make the playoffs. That's No. 1, and I don't really want to get into all that kind of discussion right now because I want to stay focused on what we all need to do as players, as coaches, as management, everybody. Focused on one thing – winning, getting to the playoffs, winning in the playoffs. At the end of the year, we sit around like every business, and we'll evaluate how did we do, where can we be better."
This could mean the trading of players or even the firing on Mark Jackson as the coach. The team has had issues with Jackson and his coaching staff recently, reassigning one of the assistants reportedly at the request of Jackson and then recently firing another assistant for violating team policy.

- Other institutions may use different versions of Sakai or have their systems configured quite differently. Therefore we encourage those who used Sakai as an instructor at another institution to sign up for and complete Durham Tech's Intro to Sakai workshop if possible.
- Instructors who receive a training waiver are responsible for reading and following Durham Tech's local Sakai Procedures.
To request a Sakai training waiver
The instructor's supervisor must send an email to email@example.com with the following information:
- Instructor's full legal name
- Instructor's Durham Tech ID number (if the instructor does not have a Durham Tech ID number, see New Employees section above)
- An email address where the instructor can be reached
- Name of the institution where the instructor used Sakai previously as an instructor
Within a day or two of receiving the request, Durham Tech's Sakai staff will process the request and send the instructor an email with information on accessing Durham Tech's Sakai system.
I've completed required Sakai training. What's next?
- Read the Sakai Procedures to learn important info about getting your course sites set up and making them available to students.
- Register for and complete the Intermediate Sakai Online Workshop if you are teaching an online or hybrid course, or want to use online discussions, assignments, and test & quizzes.
- Visit Sakai Resources for lots of tips on using Sakai as an instructor at Durham Tech.
- Check out the resources available for your students at Sakai Help for Students.

CrossFit Capital Affiliate League
I went to see my fellow CFI athletes compete in the final championship tournament for the Capital Affiliate League today. It's quite a display of fitness, teamwork, and mutual respect all around.
