Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre at Melbourne Museum is a dynamic living cultural centre with an Indigenous garden, artists' space and exhibition gallery celebrating Victoria's Koorie people and the relationship between Aboriginal people and the land.
The mammoth task of installing over 480 beautiful, rich and significant objects into the Many Nations section of First Peoples has begun. Early this week the very first item – a substantial wooden carving of Bunjil by Mick Harding – went in to its final position as the crowning object of the Animal Creations showcase.

Deb Frost is leading the team of exhibition collection managers carefully placing the objects into the Many Nations display. Explains Deb, "the complexity of these cases is that nearly every object requires a custom support, or mount, designed specifically for that object." Mount-makers from Pod Museum and Art Services have spent recent months making fine, precise metal frames that will show each object at its best, while holding them securely in place. Deb points out that the mount holding Bunjil up high is much beefier than most of the others since "that object alone is 16.5 kilograms and so that mount is specifically designed to take that weight."

When filled, the showcases will house a stunning array of historical and contemporary objects made by Aboriginal people from all over Australia. Senior Curator Rosemary Wrench looked at over 16,000 historical objects from the museum's collection, selecting ones that have never been on display, while new acquisitions and commissions show continuing and new expressions of culture. Senior Designer Corinne Balaam created a beautiful light filled display to highlight each piece within six cases: Animal Creations, Celebrating Culture, Marking Identity, Keeping Places, Toy Stories and Working Country.
Deb has been working with these objects for many months and has come to know them very well. And which is her favourite? "How do you pick one? They're all amazing," she says. "Bunjil was a treat because that was a commissioned work, but my favourite is in Toy Stories, and that's the doll with the feeding breasts. That's my number one object because I think it's got a wonderful story." This doll will be held in a special mount cast from the hands of Myee Patten. "The childhood stories, that's my soft spot," continues Deb. "All the Elders coming in and speaking about those times - it's wonderful to hear those stores from their childhood some sixty or more years ago, and hearing their memories of learning from their grandparents and Elders."

As for a favourite showcase, Deb explains, "many of our team love Celebrating Culture because it's all about body adornment, the bracelets and necklaces, which are magnificent, however I love the Marking Identity case with shields that show the colouration and different patterns from state to state. This case packs a punch. It says to me, look how diverse our Indigenous communities are around Australia. The baskets in Keeping Places are gorgeous too; I love the different weaves, the different colours and different types, from the honeypot through to the ceremonial bowl made by Will Patten. It's great to see the new with the old."

As the crew finalises the installation, their concerns are protecting the precious objects and managing the logistics. "The tricky bits are the technical aspects like accessing the cases, ensuring the stability of mounts, keeping everything clean and free of dust."
"You address all the conservation and collection management needs for those objects and in the end, once they're finally locked away safely in their showcase and on display for the world to see, then everyone's tickled! That's the highlight of our work."
First Peoples opens at Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre at Melbourne Museum on 7 September 2013.
John Patten is a Bundjalung / Yorta Yorta man on his father's side, and a descendant of First Fleet convicts via his mother. An educator and artist, he takes great joy in sharing knowledge with visitors to Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre.
On Sunday May 26, Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre partnered with Connecting Home to host an event for National Sorry Day. A time for reflection and healing, National Sorry Day pays tribute to the courage and vitality of the many Aboriginal people affected by past policies of forced removal. The day also serves to highlight the work that organisations such as Connecting Home are doing in the service of members of the Stolen Generations, and those similarly affected.
The afternoon kicked off with Bunjilaka's Birrarung gallery being filled by the sounds of William Wandin-Dow's didgeridoo, followed soon thereafter by a large and attentive crowd, who via MC Bryan Andy were given an appreciation for the significance of Sorry Day.
A welcome to Country was performed by Kulin Nation elders Aunty Carolyn Briggs (Boon Wurrung), and Aunty Di Kerr (Woi Wurrung). They spoke of the day and its personal significance to each of them before a warm round of applause and the entrance to the gallery of the Seven Sisters dance troupe, who wowed the crowd with a tightly choreographed and evocative performance.
The two key speakers for the afternoon then took their turns to speak to the crowd. The first to share her story was Zoe Upton, followed then by Alice Solomon. Both speakers were moving in what they had to say, and their heartfelt words remained in the crowd's consciousness during the final performance of the afternoon, a clutch of songs sung beautifully and with great humour by the Koorie Skin Choir.

Last week the Live Exhibits team went into the field in search of eels and other fish to restock the pond in Milarri Garden.

Last year the iconic Short-finned Eels (Anguilla australis) living in Milarri pond were moved to the Forest Gallery water system while we repaired and resealed the pond. Now Milarri pond is back in operation and ready for new inhabitants.

Prior to the Milarri pond works, regular eel feeding sessions were very popular with museum visitors, giving our staff the opportunity to highlight the importance of eels as a traditional food source for local Aboriginal people. In western Victoria, kooyang (eel) were trapped using woven nets in sophisticated aquaculture systems by the Gunditjmara people for thousands of years – one of the featured installations of the upcoming First Peoples exhibition at Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre at Melbourne Museum.

We collected the new eels west of Melbourne under permit, and we also caught other fish such as Tupong (Pseudaphritis urvilli), Flathead Gudgeon (Philypnodon grandiceps) and Common Jollytails (Galaxias maculatus) boost stocks in the Forest Gallery creek and pond system. These are just a few of the 50 or so species of freshwater fish found in Victorian waters.

Freshwater invertebrates, particularly Glass Shrimp (Paratya australis) were also collected to kick start the food chain in Milarri pond. Yabbies (Cherax destructor) will soon walk across land from nearby ponds, and many other invertebrate species will fly in or colonise via new plantings or by adhering to waterbirds. Pacific Black Ducks (Anas superciliosa), Little Pied Cormorants (Microcarbo melanoleucos) and other birds will soon arrive under their own power.

At the end of the collection trip, animal keepers Chloe and Dave released the eels into their new home, where they will live under the care of Live Exhibit staff for many years.

Fish destined for the Forest Gallery must be quarantined for three weeks in tanks set up behind the scenes to ensure no parasites or pathogens are introduced to our resident fish population.

A range of fish species as well as Macquarie Turtles (Emydura macquarii) can be seen daily in the Forest Gallery at Melbourne Museum. Silver Perch (Bidyanus bidyanus) and eel feeding presentations will recommence at Milarri pond in September when the water starts to warm and the eels' appetites return.
Milarri Garden and Milarri Walk are open every day of the year except Christmas Day and Good Friday.
Up in her studio in Melbourne's CBD, artist and animator Isobel Knowles is working on something wonderful for the First Peoples exhibition. She is turning accounts of the traditional toys and play of Aboriginal children into beautiful animations for our young visitors.

Isobel creates her animations with a combination of delicately cut pieces of paper, watercolour washes, photography and digital techniques. For this project, she took scripts that the exhibition curators wrote – mostly in collaboration with members of the First Peoples Yulendj Group – and brought them to life. Each animation shows the playthings in use which, in many cases, emulate the activities of the adults around them, such as nursing mothers and men hunting. Isobel has presented the stories with a deft touch of humour because, as she describes them, "they're stories of the cheeky things that kids do."
Isobel's materials: paper cutouts of a paddlesteamer and vegetation, and her storyboard sketches.Source: Museum Victoria
Isobel began with thinking about how she wanted the animations to feel and researching the landscapes of the different areas and the colours that would capture the Australian bush. "It's been really nice working with Australian bush imagery," she says. "Usually I'm referencing fairy tales so it's a European look." She also carefully considered how the children should appear. "I've been trying to research what they would wear but a lot of the reference pictures are during special events," explains Isobel. Yulendj members helped her get these details right when she showed them the animations last week.

In the Toy Story case of the Many Nations section, visitors will see the animated stories next to the actual toys. This section, with its animations, will be a key part of the museum's educational programs. The toys are from cultural groups across the country and they haven't been on display before; many of them aren't well-known outside their communities of origin.
Isobel says she's enjoying the work and finding it incredibly interesting. "It's a really exciting project for me and I feel very honoured to have been asked to do it and to contribute to such an amazing exhibition."

MV Blog: Modelling Myee's hands
MV Blog: Mudswitches on the plaza
Last Friday Myee Patten, daughter of MV staff member Will Patten, came to work with her dad to stick her hands in a bucket of goo. This might seem an odd school holiday activity, but it will help exhibition curators demonstrate the toys of Aboriginal children in the Toy Stories section of First Peoples. For scale and context, children's objects are best shown in the hands of children– so we needed to model some hands for this important task. Myee was willing to let us borrow her hands for the job.

This pink goo, or alginate, is most commonly used by dentists to make impressions of teeth. It's non-toxic, flexible when set, and smells just like a dentist's office! It's also extremely fast-setting so the preparators mixed it up as quickly as possible and poured it over Myee's hands as she held the poses needed to demonstrate the objects in use.
Preparators Pete and Steven in a stirring frenzy as they mix up the pink goo as quickly as they can!Source: Museum Victoria
Myee's first job was to hold her hands as if cradling a baby, to support a clay doll from Milingimbi in Arnhem Land in the 1930s. The second time round, Myee held a fragment of lignum as if she'd just flicked a mudswitch, a popular game among children growing up along the Murray River.

Myee did an excellent job of staying completely still while the alginate set. Once it was solid – and you can tell this because the colour changes from purple, to pink, through to white – Myee carefully wriggled out of the mould, leaving behind an exact impression of her hands.

Minutes after her hands were free, the preparators filled the moulds with hard-setting liquid plaster. A few hours later, they extracted the casts. The preps will remove any rough bits and prepare the casts for their important job of display. And in years to come, when Myee visits with her school or family, she can point out to her friends how she lent us a hand (or two)!

MV News: Will Patten "Talking to everybody"
The Kooyang ('eels' in the Gunditjmara family of languages) section of the upcoming First Peoples exhibition will feature an eel trap in a diorama of Western District eel-farming practice. The trap, woven from puung'ort (spear grass) by Gunditjmara woman Jody-Ann Agnew, tells the story of one of the world's oldest aquaculture systems.
And this is what it's all about - eels. This is one of several eels created for the diorama.Image: Benjamin HealleySource: Museum Victoria
Museum designers, curators, photographers and preparators have worked closely with Gunditj Mirring Traditional Owners Corporation to capture a slice of the Western District, complete with animals, plants and terrain typical of this area. The models and specimens of eels and other wildlife created by Dean Smith and Kym Haines are dazzlingly true-to-life, including a leech that Kym modelled from the little sucker that hunted him down when Jody's mother, senior weaver Aunty Eileen Alberts, took museum staff to Tyrendarra!

Steven Sparrey and Brendon Taylor are recreating the volcanic boulders of the Tyrendarra lava flow thrown out by Budj Bim (Mt Eccles) thousands of years ago. Gunditjmara people used these rocks to create an ingenious network of ponds, channels and dams to farm the eels. Aunty Eileen and Jody will oversee the final stages of the diorama construction.

I don't know what's harder to believe about 2014 – that the Royals made the World Series or that the Giants have won three of the past five. Either way it made for one of the more entertaining World Series (and playoffs in general) in recent years. We said goodbye to some great players as well (though the players listed here are those who did not play professionally in 2014, so we'll have to wait 'til next year for Mr. Jeter. In total there are (I think) 75 players listed here, which makes me think I should narrow my scope of "significant" players. But then what would a farewell-to-players collection be without an adieu to Nick Green and Hee-Seop Choi?
Some technical notes – ranking categories have the names they do because 1st Tier, 2nd Tier, 3rd Tier, etc. just sounds dull. Essentially only the first two tiers have any literal meaning. The first group are players I vote for the Hall of Fame without any doubts, the second are a group that I'd either have to think about, or whose cases I think deserve at least a cursory examination. This year I could probably only be convinced of the first of this group (and indeed even putting him in the "requires discussion" group is probably a very conservative evaluation of his career achievements. On to the fun…listed from best to worst, because otherwise everyone would stop reading after the first two…you elitist snobs – mediocre baseball players are worth reminiscing over too!

It should be noted, however, that being president then didn't have the thousands of perks that come with the position today, including a free mansion in which to live. For example, after staying for 16 months in New York, Washington and his wife, Martha, rented a mansion in Philadelphia (the nation's capital before D.C.), where they lived from 1790-97. Washington had to use his salary both for official duties and to maintain his personal affairs. It was an amount that even he complained was scarcely enough.
Because Washington conducted presidential business from that residence, as well, he supported a robust staff, in addition to his family. UShistory.org notes, "In November (1790), when the presidential household moved in, there were up to thirty people living on the premises: Washington, his wife, Martha, and her grandchildren, Nelly and G.W. Parke Custis; Chief Secretary Tobias Lear, his wife, and the three male secretaries; eight enslaved Africans from Mount Vernon; and about fifteen white servants."
Much is made today of Washington's financial fortune (USA Today labeled him "the big daddy of presidential wealth"), but most overlook that his wealth was largely amassed in the Mount Vernon estate, which he inherited from his elder half brother in 1761, and in Martha's land and slaves, inherited from her former husband.
Sure, he had lots of assets, but his liquidity didn't flow like wealthy people's money today. Remember that back then, there was no established national banking system. Bartering and oscillating state currencies and commodities were the names of the game (until the 1792 Coinage Act), with the value of land fluctuating sharply based upon weather and crop production. As The Atlantic put it, "because there was no central banking system and no regulatory framework for commodities, markets were subject to panics in ways unknown today." Consider that at 57 years old, Washington even had to borrow money to pay off debts and to travel to his own inauguration.
1) The No. 1 reason I wish George Washington were still alive is that his character and leadership are so rare and desperately needed in our nation's capital today, as much as, if not even more so than, it was in our republic's formation.
In 1797, after winning the Revolutionary War and serving two presidential terms in office, Washington finally retired to Mount Vernon at 65 years of age, but he would enjoy his rest for only two years.
On Dec. 14, 1799, Washington died of a severe respiratory sickness. His beloved Martha died only three years later.
In his will, he humbly and simply referred to himself as "George Washington of Mount Vernon, a citizen of the United States, and lately President of the same."
At first, the Washingtons were laid to rest in an unmarked brick tomb at Mount Vernon. But their final resting place is in a crypt there that bears the title of him who refused to be king. The engraved words over the tomb make known the title by which people knew Washington best back then -- not as president but as general.
The inscription reads, "Within this Enclosure Rest the remains of Gen.l George Washington." And over the door of the inner tomb are inscribed these words from Jesus: "I am the resurrection and the life."
Washington's good friend Henry Lee probably summarized his life, leadership and legacy best in the eulogy for the father of the United States: "First in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen."
And so he remains -- or should remain -- always.
God, please give the U.S. more men and women like George and Martha Washington.
(SET ITAL) For more on the monumental figure, I recommend the amazing book "George Washington's Sacred Fire," by Peter Lillback and Jerry Newcombe.

"Uithuizermeeden" Uithuizermeeden by nighthawk
Uithuizermeeden Travel Guide: 1 reviews and 4 photos
Uithuizermeeden, quite a long name so the Groningen people tend to call it "Mei" (not being the month of mei/may but just short for).
Uithuizermeeden dates from about the 12th/13th century, and at certain time dykes where built and the land behind was suitable to built houses on, thus creating the villages of Uithuizen, Uithuizermeeden and Roodeschool.
Because the dykes sheltered fertile grounds from the salty sea tthe farmers that lived behind the dykes became very rich. They were entitled to claim new land, won from the sea, as their own. Remains of that former wealth still can be seen: stronghouses and mantions (borgen).
The Rensumaborg is the only witness of that former wealth. The road to it is near the oldest part of Uithuizermeeden, de Torenbuurt (Tower neighbourhood) around the old reformed church.
In 1652 a new dyke, the so called kadijk or middle dyke, was built and people started to build houses in that area.
Nowadays Uithuizermeeden is a sttretched out village, but still cosy enough to be pleasant.
At the end of the 19th century a railway came to Uithuizermeeden, tracks leading from Sauwerd to Roodeschool. It split the village in two.
Only after WW II plans were made to make a less divided village, which succeeded well.
The mermaid is the symbol of Uithuizermeeden. King William III granted the municipality an armour in 1886. It's blue of colour with in the front a mermaid, rising from a green sea with her arms held high. Beside her are some golden. The weapon clearly symbolises the history of this village: fertile, risen from the sea.
A famous person who was born here is ir. Johan van Veen. He thought up the plan to create a harbour near the Uithuizermeeden coast, got laughed out because of and declared mad but he went on and nowadays the Eemshaven is proof of his fertile thought.
He also thought up the Delta plan, that of course is more known than the Eemshaven.

Best Chef (2006)
Mark Militello and Allen Susser
This category was established last year as a sort of hall of fame -- win once, and you're no longer qualified. Because we have a lot of catching up to do in honoring our best chefs, from here on in we will induct two at a time. Last year's inaugural winner was Norman Van Aken, which makes Mark Militello and Allen Susser the obvious choices to follow. These three, after all, are most closely associated with rediscovering the region's bounty of fresh fish and tropical produce and resuscitating them into a vital, nationally recognized New Florida/New World cuisine. Mark has a few more restaurants, Allen a few more cookbooks, but between them they have won so many awards there is probably no room on their walls to display this one. What a slap in the face! Still, we salute the passion, integrity, charitability, and unbridled culinary talent of these two prominent pioneers, who unlike typical hall-of-famers continue to excel in their fields: Chef Allen's (since 1986), Mark's South Beach, and Mark's Las Olas (the original Mark's Place opened in 1988) are still, after all these years, counted among South Florida's elite restaurants.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Jaylon Smith very well may force his way on to the field in 2013, but for the incoming linebacker to do so he'll have to push a successful member of the 2012 defense out of the way.
Smith is expected to slot in as a "cat" linebacker in Notre Dame's 3-4 defense, one who is able to drop back into pass coverage. That was a role Danny Spond played well in 2012, in which he became a key member of a defense that was the backbone of a championship run.
Unseating Spond won't be easy, but seniority won't play a factor in deciding who plays next season.
"We're also going to put the best 11 on the field, and if Danny Spond is the best 11, he's playing," coach Brian Kelly said Wednesday. "If Jaylon Smith is the best 11, he's playing. We recognize the fact that everybody has a value to what we're doing, but we're also going to play the best players."
While Smith will be tough to keep off the field in some capacity, four-star quarterback Malik Zaire joins one of the more loaded areas of Notre Dame's depth chart. Incumbent starter Everett Golson has three seasons of eligibility left, while 2012 five-star recruit Gunner Kiel has four years remaining. Former starter Tommy Rees will enter his senior season, while junior Andrew Hendrix was lost in the shuffle last year.
That's a daunting group, although Kelly said Zaire -- an early enrollee -- came to Notre Dame to beat out Golson, Kiel and the rest of the depth chart for a starting job.
"This didn't bother him one bit," Kelly said. "He had the confidence in his ability."
Kelly's NFL flirtation doesn't prove costly
Alex Anzalone decommitted from Notre Dame after word came out that Kelly took an interview with the Philadelphia Eagles, but the Florida-bound linebacker was the only recruiting casualty stemming from those talks.
There was a four-day stretch after the BCS Championship in which plenty of those outside and inside the program were left in the dark as to what Kelly's next move would be. While reports surfaced about Kelly's interest in the Eagles, plenty of Notre Dame recruits took to twitter to reaffirm their commitment to the school -- some noting it was steadfast with or without Kelly.
Kelly and recruiting coordinator Tony Alford said there was no apprehension among recruits about the future -- and that was one of the reasons why Notre Dame's class stayed intact.
"Our guys knew what was going on, we know who the leader of this football program is, we know what the culture of this football program was supposed to be and what we want it to be, so there wasn't confusion on their part," Alford explained.
New recruiting guidelines an area of some concern for Kelly
The NCAA's latest recruiting rules allow for unlimited calls and text messages from a coach to a recruit, and plenty of FBS coaches have expressed concern over that shift. For some, there's a concern assistant coaches will be overworked. For Kelly, he's worried about the constant bombardment recruits will receive from coaches.
"I've got mixed emotions about it. It cleans up a lot of the little problems that you may have in recruiting if you text at the wrong -- you shouldn't have texted somebody or you picked up a call, whatever the case may be," Kelly explained. "I think it cleans up a lot of that.
"But I think there's going to be a lot more on the plates of the student athletes, and I don't know how good that is."
Another change, too, is easing regulations on what schools can mail to recruits. That's a wrinkle Kelly is concerned about as well.
"Now you may have some schools sending out Fatheads and colored brochures," Kelly said. "I don't want to get into a marketing and promotions department."
Better late than never
Four-star running back Tarean Folston sent his letter of intent to Notre Dame Wednesday afternoon, a few hours after Notre Dame's 17 other non-early-enrollee commits faxed in their paperwork. The Cocoa, Fla., native held a ceremony at his high school Wednesday to sign his LOI.
Folston rushed for 1,186 yards and 13 touchdowns in his senior season and ranked No. 119 in Rivals' top 250.
Te'o hoax not a topic of discussion
While the story of Lennay Kekua, Ronaiah Tuiasosopo and Manti Te'o was seemingly impossible to avoid in mid-January, it didn't come up in any interactions Alford had with recruits.
"I gotta be honest with you, it never came up," Alford said. "That was an isolated incident, it is what it is, it never came up. That has no bearing and no effect on anything that has to do with these young men."
Elliott undergoes kidney transplant
In non-recruiting news, Notre Dame safeties coach Bob Elliott underwent a kidney transplant Wednesday after spending the entire 2012 season administering self-dialysis. Elliott, who safety Matthias Farley said was "monumental" in his development, didn't miss any time during the season due to his condition.
"(He) was out there coaching and working, and he's just a great man," Kelly said. "He's got great experience. I love having him on the staff, and he'll get through this. It's a tough time right now for him, but I think you're going to see him back. He's a fighter, and I expect to see him back on the field in the spring."
Nichols nearing medical hardship
Tackle Tate Nichols suffered a knee injury last year that appears as if it'll end his football career. Notre Dame has the paperwork ready for Nichols to be granted a medical hardship waiver, which would keep him on scholarship and let him earn his degree while not counting against the football team's 85-scholarship limit.
Nichols was rated as a three-star prospect out of Union, Ky., in Notre Dame's class of 2010.
Irish recruits not scared off by loaded depth chart
SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Jaylon Smith very well may force his way on to the field in 2013, but for the incoming linebacker to do so he'll have to push a successful member of the 2012 defense out of the way.

It is the first 15 minute quali session, i think at least a little bit of luck was involved. It makes it difficult for the riders, but at least it will make racing exciting since the quali order is not as indicative of true pace. I will say that Lorenzo probably would have taken pole either way.

Hi Everyone,
Hoping to get some help on this issue...
When attempting an encode in the latest version of compressor 4.0.5 alongside our Matrox MXO2 LE MAX hardware compressor. (using the Matrox MAX compressor presets) we encounter the following error "3X crash service down" I should note that this issue is only happening in Compressor 4 AND when using the Matrox presets.
When using the custom Apple presets or using Compressor 3, there are no issues, so we know the hardware is working)
The Matrox MXO2 LE MAX hardware is all up to date (firmware 35.2, software 2.5.0.0035)
After much googling and forum searching here are the troubleshooting steps we've tried;
-updated to latest software/firmware for our Matrox encoder
-unistalled flip4mac
-reset "background processing" in compressor
disabled "display job thumbnails" in compressor prefs
Any ideas or suggesstions from people who have run into the same issue would be much appreciated.
Thanks everyone!

Ouch. Had to do that when my son was 11. I did it as straight forward and gently as I could. At first he was just numb as I held him. Slowly he got to feeling better.

You just have to keep on giving all the support you can and when question come, answer them as best you can in the most gentle way you can.
There is no easy way, but telling him calmly, and in the most caring way possible would be my way of doing it. As for the boys reaction? who knows, we all react differently, but stand by for whatever way he reacts, and be a solid support for him.
tell him gently and don't worry how he will act he is going to be destroyed.

Sit him down and explain his mother is gone, she will be watching him forever but he will not see her. He will feel her, she still loves him, and misses him deeply. He may need a professional if he can't cope
Be truthful and explain that this is one of lifes realities. Make sure you let him ask questions and answer him honestly. Also make sure he knows he has someone to come to when he needs. I had to do this years ago with my 7 year old daughter. Make sure you allow him to grieve in his own way.
You have to tell him.... He is still young, he will be upset. Possibly he will recover quickly at his age.

Books & Bars discusses graphic novel 'Blankets'
Monthly book club Books & Bars continues to keep it lively and fresh after five years with its first graphic novel pick, Blankets, this Tuesday night. Join host and moderator Jeff Kamin at Bryant-Lake Bowl to discuss Craig Thompson's praised work over a pint or two, whether you've read the novel or not. Everyone's welcome.
Blankets is a coming-of-age autobiography with expressive black and white drawings and poignant tales depicting the awkwardness and misery of maturing into a young man. The pages weave through author Thompson's experiences of growing up in a formidable Christian household, where he and his younger brother used drawing and imagination as an escape, which was seen as sinful in the eyes of his devout Evangelical parents.
The memoir is Thompson's second novel (his debut was the his critically acclaimed Goodbye, Chunky Rice), and it recounts his story of young adulthood, including the torment of being a teenage misfit and the experience of falling in love for the first time. Chosen as one of the 10 best English language graphic novels ever written in 2005 by Time, and winner of the Eisner, Harvey, and Ignatz Awards for Best Graphic Novel and Best Cartoonist, Blankets will surely light up conversation tomorrow night aided by the food and drink set-up of Books & Bars.
The event is free at Bryant-Lake Bowl. Doors open at 6 p.m., while the discourse will run from 7 to 8:30 p.m with Surly Furious at only $2. It is highly recommended you arrive early, and for a discounted copy of Blankets, head over to Magers & Quinn. The book for October's meeting will be This is Where I Leave You by Jonathon Tropper and will include a video chat, and November will cover To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. Happy bookclubbing.

Gold And Blue Silk Duck by wolfwings1Watch
©2013-2016 wolfwings1
I like the colours of this one, and how smooth the water looks, let me know any thoughts you have on this.
The water looks awesome!
Ah, those colors mix together so well! And that cute duck in between, paddling
Yeah, it was a challenge finding a balance between light and everything, enough to see the duck, but not too much that the duck took away from everything else.
Awww so cute,
It looks so lonely
It looks so lonely
Thankfully she was part of about either 3 or 8 :> There was two groups of ducks hanging around :>

Bronte Parsonage library and information officer, Sarah Laycock, right, puts away a sewing box that belonged to the literary sisters, watched by volunteer steward, Amy Rowbottom, left, and museum assistant, Linda Pierson
David Knights / / News
Bronte Parsonage Museum is closed to the public throughout January – but it is the busiest time of the year for staff.
Workers have only a few weeks to check every item in the Haworth museum and prepare new displays.
They are not only creating a major temporary exhibition, but will also refresh exhibits in the permanent galleries.
The museum's closed season, at the beginning of January each year, will last longer than usual this time, until at least February 20.
Collections manager, Ann Dinsdale, said the extra time was required due to the amount of work needed to be carried out.
She added: "We're updating the foyer and shopping area to improve our service to visitors.
"People can only come in through the front door of the Parsonage, so they're exposed to the elements if they have to queue.
"In future, they will be able to buy a ticket at the desk in the foyer then make their way round to the front, so they can still get the experience of going through the front door."
Museum staff were this week taking down the 2013 special exhibition, which featured Bronte household items, in readiness to install the 2013 exhibition, which explores the Bronte family's links with animals.
Ann said: "We also have our exhibition upstairs, which tells the stories of the Brontes' lives and how they came to write their works. We change some of the items on display each year.
"There's a huge amount of work that goes on. I think people imagine the winter is a quiet time for us, but it's probably the busiest time.
"It's the only time of year when we can do work, such as decorating or maintenance. Everything is cleaned. We check the entire collection for any deterioration, including the furniture. We have to be very watchful for the woodwork, cracks, veneers."
During the closed season, expert conservators examine items acquired by the Bronte Society during the previous 12 months, before they go on public display.

He understand everything you tell him. We were in his bedroom and I asked him to go out his sippy cup in the sink. He did. I get so jealous of everyone's lo's talking so well that I'm getting impatient.
Thanks for reading! : )
I am also frustrated with this. DH's side of the family is full of hartounderstand talkers. They typically stay that way until after a couple of years in school. I am not worried at all. DD understands everything we say, is very imaginative, and logical thinking. She speaks in sentences in a really odd way. We may be able to decipher one or two words at the most from a sentence. I have been daydreaming of conversations since she was an embryo. I 'm definitely starting to get impatient.
btw I just found out that DH pronounced "fingers" as "pingers" until he was 8 or 9.lol This is hilarious because he has a booming voice and is a very eloquent and precise speaker.
"When you know better, you do better." - Maya Angelou
Ours isn't a big talker either, no sentences other than "Here you go mama/dadda", though it sounds more like "here go mama" when she brings us something. Other than that it's just words. She doesn't say I yet, and when she wants us to do what she's doing, she points and says, "me?" For instance, she likes to lay on the floor and pretend to sleep, and she'll pick up her head and look at you, point to the floor and say, "Me?" I see so many posts of LOs saying three word sentences!

Baby Sophie born Feb.24, 2011
Joel is not either, so you are not alone...he says mom, dada, no, bye bye, hi, go go go and NO! oh a botl (bottle)
Timothy is also not saying too many real words..but he has his own words for many things. Banana=nana for example. sun and cheese are both cheese, does all the animal sounds, etc (that's how he refers to animals as opposed to saying "cat, dog, pig" etc. He is also bilingual like PPs LO..not sure if it has to do with anything.
*Mommy to DS1 2/11 and DS2 11/13*
I was very concerned about Ryder for quite some time. Even had an eval scheduled with a wife of a coworker that is amazing at speech therapy. Anyways, he is a very shy talker, if you can understand that. He gets shy about saying things and people getting excited about it. My husband and I commented today about how much babbling he is doing lately, even joking with me. When he touches something that is not his ill say "no, that's mommy's, that's cocka" lol. So now he will touch something and looking at me and go "cocka" and giggle like crazy. He also out of no where yesterday was throwing a ball and did it so good and goes "i did it!" my husband and I looked at each other and went "i did it?" so I think they will have something to say when they want to, some just soak it all in first.
J isn't really talking much either...his most commonly used words are: uh-oh, got youuuuu (he drags out the "u" sound), ball, Daisy (the name of one of our cats, but to him every cat is Daisy...lol...), he makes a gutteral grunting type sound for "woof"...he will say bye, mom (when they pick me up from work or drop me off he says mom everytime), dad (he says this whenever he sees DH's work building)...he loves to say GO! when he rolls a ball or pushes a car...he'll hold his hand out and say Sa! (Stop) when he thinks his brother and sister are too far away from us...
that's about it...the words he does know are not useful to us as far as communicating his needs/wants which is the frustrating part for us as the tantrums are becoming more and more frequent and we have no idea what he wants/needs...his understanding of what we say is great...we're looking at starting to do either sign language or picture cards with him....probably picture cards as DH will most likely not do the sign language with him and i'm not home enough to work a lot with him on it...
He was just evaluated and tested at a 10-12 month level but he wasn't too cooperative as he flipped as soon as we walking into the room which he associated with the doctor's office and he wasn't copperative after that...so he's going to be evaluated by our AEA in our home and see if he tests higher...

More Than 100,000 Applicants Sign Up For One-Way Trip to Mars
In the aftermath of Neil Armstrong's death in August 2012, many agreed that his first steps on the moon back…
In the aftermath of Neil Armstrong's death in August 2012, many agreed that his first steps on the moon back in 1969 ranked amongst humanity's greatest ever achievements. The Apollo 11 mission, on which he was accompanied by Buzz Aldrin, marked the culmination of the so-called 'Space Race' during the Cold War and, in Armstrong's words, respresented a 'giant leap for mankind' in terms of scientific achievement.
Although ten other people have walked on the surface of the moon since the Apollo 11 mission, how many people reading this article could name them? For most of us, it is Armstrong and Aldrin's names that will live on forever, due to their status as the first human beings to accomplish such a feat.
Following on from the successful lunar missions, the next logical step in space exploration has always been a manned mission to Mars. So what price would people pay to trump Armstrong and Aldrin and become the first people to step foot on another planet? For over 100,000 people, the answer is that they would willingly give up their place on this planet, forever.
The 'Mars One' Project
'Mars One' is a private spaceflight project, which aims to establish a permanent human colony on Mars by 2023. The project, which has received backing from Nobel Prize winner, Gerard 't Hooft, is accepting civilian applicants for their mission, with the aim of narrowing down the applicants to a team of four, whom it hopes will be the first people to ever walk on the planet.
The catch? The ticket to Mars is one-way and those selected for the mission will never be able to return to Earth.
Yet, this rather heavy price is one that many are willing to pay in order to break new ground and make history. To date, more than 100,000 people have applied for the mission, including over 30,000 applicants from the United States.
Later in the year, Mars One will select a group of 40 applicants, from various countries around the world. From that group of 40, two men and two women will eventually be selected to take off from Earth in 2022 and land on Mars in 2023. Two years later, four more people will complete the mission, with a view to landing 20 people on the planet by 2033.
Those 20 people will live out the remainder of their lives on Mars, establishing a full, permanent human colony on the planet.

Chevrolet Sail U-VA vs Maruti Suzuki Swift: Comparison
The competition in the premium hatchback segment in India is as intense as it could ever get. With a bunch of cars out there, each one with its USP, it is getting even more difficult for potential buyers to narrow down on a car from the never ending list. But there has been one car that has ruled the segment over the past seven years and it continues to do so with ease – the Maruti Suzuki Swift. Many cars have entered the market with the intention of dethroning the long standing leader of the class. Some came close, others didn't, but none was able to even make a dent let alone steal the crown. Will General Motors' newest offering, the Chevrolet Sail U-VA succeed in this mission impossible is the logical question that came to our minds when this predominantly Chinese-designed and developed machine hit the roads.
General Motors' journey in India has been quite a rollercoaster ride, right from the early 90s when the American auto maker had a joint venture with Hindustan Motors to produce and sell Opels. Although the Chevrolet Optra sedan, Tavera MUV, and the small city car Beat were able to bring GM on the map in India, the Aveo U-VA was not really successful in attaining substantial results in the fast growing premium hatchback segment. While the Aveo U-VA was quite level headed, it lacked that certain oomph that cars like the Maruti Suzuki Swift and Hyundai Getz had in abundance.
Six years later with the world and its granny having evolved mightily, GM has played it smart but safe. First it ensured its survival with a tie-up and also an equity holding in GMIL with none other than SAIC (Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation) whereby many products developed for the massive low end segment of the Chinese market were re-engineered to accept diesel and readied for India. The first of these is the Sail U-VA and while being easy on the eye, it is awhat is underneath its skin and make-up which will enable it to be taken seriously, before it comes to do battle with the segment leader.

This and EM's Light Pink are both face colors that sound identical from their descriptions, even though the colors are a bit different. Light Pink looks like cotton candy and has fine white/pearl sparkle, Natural is darker and purple tinted, with tons of larger silver sparkles. I wondered if there really was any difference though since they are 2 different products, so I got a sample. And yes, there's a difference. Light Pink is pretty invisible and works great. Natural is ridiculously shiny, like "look at me and get ready to be blinded". I wouldn't dare step outside in full sunlight with this. And it's not just the amount of shine that's bad. You can see the silver color and it's not a soft shimmer, it's a frost finish and noticeable. It mimics oily skin too. I tried using a light hand and not much, but you can always see it. Probably perfect as a highlighter or eyeshadow, but this is not wanted to use it as. Maybe to use it up I'll just blend microscopic amounts into my silk dust to use it up.

Even after reading all the comments around here, I was still surprised at how light this blush is. I put it next to my foundation (Light Medium) and it's lighter than the foundation. Therefore, it's not really a traditional blush. It is more of a highlighter, but I'm also using it as a really pretty "natural" eyeshadow. I could see using this as a body shimmer, as well, for a night out. With all the EDM products, I love that it's natural, organic, and vegan and beautiful!

I must be super pale, because I can use this as a blush and can't imagine it as a highlighter. It's really, really subtle as a blush, but adds color to my cheeks in that "no makeup" sort of way, which is sometimes what I want, just a healthy glow that doesn't look like I have blush on. I also don't really find that the shimmer shows up on me much compared to how it looks in the pot.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure

I love this blush. I have very pale skin...most blushers look horribly dark on me. This just gives a lovely natural glow. I have pretty sallow skin and the colour just looks totally natural and for once, when I have foundation on I don't look aneamic!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Sensitive, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
this isn't a blush, but rather a "face color." it's just a shimmery translucent powder. the shimmer is somewhat subdued, so it's appropriate for daytime use. this can be used by itself to brighten up the complexion, but that's too sparkly for me. i like to mix it with a loose powder to set my makeup. if you use a denser brush and really pack it on, it's a very pretty highlighter. i wonder consider repurchasing it, it's just that i have too many highlighting products. ;)

I really like this blush but as other people have shared -its not pigmented in a way that actually adds color to the face but rather a highlighter sort of 'blush'. I really like the shimmery sheen of it - in the container it looks purpley but goes on as a kind of soft silver with the faintest hint of mauve - barely noticeable unless you layer it on. I like to use this in addition to other blushes because with just a touch of color applied before it, it has a lovely tone to it. I would love it if it had just a hit more of the mauve - so that it could live up to the EM description of being perfect for a no makeup day.

Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Not Sure

I love this as a face color. I wouldn't bother with it as a blush, as it's so light, but as an all over face color it gives a lovely 'soft focus' finish. I've used this sans foundation for a very dewy look. I've used it over foundation and a finishing powder for an airbrushed look. I've used it just over foundation for a very natural glowy look. I love this face color, and have already repurchased it one time. It's gorgeous and versatile. The color itself is a *very* light silver-mauve color. It blends well into finishing powders, foundations, or just your natural skin. A little goes a long way, and it can also be layered up for a bit for light coverage on its own.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Oily, Medium, Cool
Hair: Brown, Other, Medium

Natural Blush speaks for itself, it's a natural looking blush..although I don't use it as a blush because I like a little more color on my cheeks than this pale, sparkly blusher. This color is more of a face powder. It doesn't add color to your cheeks it just adds shine. I like this blush because I use it as an all over face color and it adds just enough sparkles to my face to make me look fresh and wide awake. I use it as an eyeshadow and an eyeshadow base too. I also use it to highlight my eyes, my shoulder, and chest area. This blush is beautiful on when used on a romantic night out and you need to GLOW! This color is the exact match to Silk Naturals, Mineral Glow. This blush is not what it's said to be, it's actually a lot more.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I guess I'm very VERY fair, because this blush shows up on me just fine... Very natural, very nice.

The Nils was a Montreal punk rock band formed in 1978 by Alex Soria. They started to gain popularity in 1982 upon the release of a five song demo entitled Now.
In 1983, they played Montreal's legendary venue The Spectrum; once with The Ramones and later with X. During this year, they were selected to showcase their song ″Scratches and Needles″ on an L.A. based BYO compilation entitled "Something to Believe In" before next being selected to feature ″Call of The Wild″ on the "Primitive Air Raid: Montreal '84" compilation.
The band acquired a significant following by extensively touring North America while still managing to release two influential EPs back to back: Sell Out Young (1985) and Paisley (1986). Their criticahttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Nils&action=edit#l success and unmistakable sound caught the attention of executives of the now defunct NYC hip hop label Profile records.
The band signed a five year contract with Rock Hotel, a punk/rock sub-label of Profile and with the help of English songwriter Chris Spedding as producer and Phil Burnett as engineer, they released their first full length self-titled album. Upon its release, the album charted and was a critical success. Their ever increasing fanbase including legions of musicians in the genre began naming them as a direct influence: Goo Goo Dolls, Superchunk, Jawbox, Meat Puppets, Down By Law, Bob Mould (Sugar, Hüsker Dü) and many of the power-pop punk bands.
The band set off on their seventh North American tour and was slated to include Europe in support of the album. However, half way through the tour in Minneapolis, the band abruptly received notice that the rest of the tour was cancelled due to the bankruptcy of Profile. Devastated and broke as they were now unable to repay the label's advance money, the band headed home to find work to clear the debt. Further exacerbating the situation, the band fell victim to their binding contract with Profile that would not allow them to release new material under The Nils name for another four years. With The Nils on a forced hiatus, Alex began working menial jobs and playing occasional solo shows around Montreal.
In 1992, now liberated from their contract with Profile, Alex Soria briefly reformed The Nils. During this time, Alex accepted an offer to release a Nils a retrospective compilation by Woody Whelan of Mag Wheel records. The release entitled "Green Fields in Daylight" proved to be a success for old and new Nils fans. Seeking a fresh start, Alex formed Chino featuring Mark Donato (currently of The Nils). They released Mala Leche, a collection of previously unrecorded Nils tracks and some new material. The record adorned the unmistakable songwriting structure that had distinctly set The Nils apart from other bands, though it never garnered the success of that of The Nils.
By 2003, Alex and Mark began playing again as The Nils and started the legwork on a follow up to their successful 1987 release. Then, tragically on December 13, 2004 the band and life for many around them came to a grinding halt when without warning Alex ended his life on a train track near his home. Months later, Carlos Soria, (Alex's brother) and fellow musicians including Chris Spedding, Ian Blurton (Change of Heart) and John Kastner (Doughboys, Asexuals) held a sold out benefit tribute concert in Alex's name.
The Nils lay dormant for the years it took to recover from the greatest loss any of them, their families and fans had ever known. However, with encouragement and support of friends and fellow musicians Keith Morris (Black Flag/Circle Jerks/Off), Chris Spedding and John Kastner (Asexuals/Doughboys/All SystemsGo!), Carlos and Mark picked up once again as The Nils.
The band is now under the management of Peter Wark (Rickie Lee Jones, Joseph Arthur, Evan Dando)and as of today, are actively playing shows in support of new and old material. A much anticipated new full length album and supporting tour are in the works before the end of 2013.
