Diversity and cross-cultural issues in Georgia
|Country Resources
Outside of Georgia's capital, residents of rural communities might have had little direct exposure to other cultures, races, religions, and lifestyles. What people view as typical U.S. behavior or norms may be a misconception, such as the belief that all Americans are rich and have blond hair and blue eyes. The people of Georgia are known for their generous hospitality to foreigners; however, members of the community where you will live may display a range of reactions to cultural differences that you present.
As a Volunteer and representative of the United States, you are responsible not only for sharing the diversity of U.S. culture (to include your individual culture and the culture of other Americans) with your host country national counterparts, but also for learning from the diversity of your host country. An important aspect of this cultural exchange will be to demonstrate inclusiveness within your community in a sensitive manner. Additionally, you will share the responsibility of learning about the diversity of your fellow Peace Corps Volunteers and exploring how best to respect differences while serving as supportive allies as you go through this challenging new experience.
To ease the transition and adapt to life in your host country, you may need to make some temporary, yet fundamental, compromises in how you present yourself as an American and as an individual. For example, female trainees and Volunteers may not be able to exercise the independence they have in the United States; male Volunteers may be expected to not perform chores or other tasks ascribed to women; political discussions need to be handled with great care; and some of your personal beliefs may best remain undisclosed. You will need to develop techniques and personal strategies for coping with these and other limitations. The Peace Corps staff will lead a diversity, inclusion, and sensitivity discussion during pre-service training and will be on call to provide support. This training covers how to adapt personal choices and behavior to be respectful of the host country culture, which can have a direct impact on how Volunteers are viewed and treated by their new communities. The Peace Corps emphasizes professional behavior and cross-cultural sensitivity among volunteers and within their communities to help integrate and be successful during service.
An ideal way to view the pursuit of cross-cultural adaptation and/or cultural integration is to recognize that everything done in your host country has both a specific reason for why it is done and an expected outcome. Trust that your host country counterparts are acting with positive intentions and work to mutually seek understanding and commonality. Language differences may add a communication barrier and lead to misunderstandings. Listen more than you speak and seek clarity. Remember that having the ability to laugh at yourself and at life's little surprises goes a long way—laughter is universal. Georgia is a closed-group culture and relationships are highly valued. This usually affects how feedback is shared or received in social or work settings. People may avoid giving critical feedback to save relations, or they may be sensitive to critical feedback, especially if shared publicly. Georgians are openhearted but proud and they appreciate people who demonstrate curiosity in their culture and history. It's common for Georgians to help their friends, neighbors, relatives or other people in the closed-group, rather than providing help for a public cause or purpose. In this way, the notion of volunteerism as Americans understand it is quite new (but growing). Despite the collectivistic culture, Georgians tend to be very individualistic in their opinions and, sometimes actions, and sometimes are not very good team players.
Georgia is a sharing culture and you will observe people share meals during breaks at work. There is a strong cultural expectation to offer others any food or drinks that you may be publicly consuming. One of the common practices in Georgia is to engage foreigners in toast-making and drinking culture. However, consider that Georgians value people who can control their alcohol consumption and maintain healthy and respectful behavior. Remember that it is more important for Georgians to share the spirit of Supra (feast) and toast-making, rather than to engage in actual drinking with them.

Possible Gender Role Issues[edit]
Gender is a set of socially constructed roles, responsibilities, behaviors, and opportunities. Gender differs from sex, which refers specifically to biological and physiological characteristics of males and females. Gender roles and expectations are learned, change over time, and vary within and among cultures. Volunteers are trained in gender awareness as they approach their work in the host country. Gender roles in the United States may differ greatly from those in your country of service. It is important to absorb and to attempt to understand the cultural nuances of gender where you are. For example, in many cultures males are held in higher regard than females and females may manage the households. In some places, females are encouraged to attend school, while in other countries females are discouraged from engaging in such activities and instead work inside or outside of the home.
During the pre-service training, trainees receive an introduction to gender awareness in their country of service, and examine their own thinking about gender roles and how this thinking has impacted them. They then learn how to analyze development projects using a gender lens to better understand gender roles in their host country and to understand how these gender roles can benefit or limit what females and males may or may not do. During their 27 months of service, Volunteers will further engage in gender trainings to understand better how their gender identity impacts who they are as females or males in the host country and how this perception influences their work and relationships.
Georgia is a traditional patriarchal culture. Although several women have achieved high rank within the government, people at the community level have not had much experience with women who have professional roles or who live independently of their families. Volunteers report that service is more difficult for female than for male Volunteers. It is sometimes a challenge for Volunteers in Georgia to cope effectively and constructively with the different status of women and men and the different standards of behavior to which they are held.
Female Volunteers may find that a single woman living alone goes against the cultural norm. They may receive more unwanted and inappropriate attention from Georgian men than in the United States or have to work harder than male Volunteers to gain the respect of Georgian colleagues in the workplace. Female Volunteers will also have to adapt to cultural norms of not smoking or drinking in public, which could result in unwanted attention and harassment and may lead to an undesirable reputation in the community.
Possible Issues for Volunteers of Color[edit]
Volunteers of color sometimes, but not always, have a different Peace Corps experience than white Volunteers. Because of limited exposure, some foreign nationals will expect to see U.S. citizens who are white. Cultures of the world do not typically envision the States as a place of rich diversity with various culturally acceptable perspectives, personalities, and characteristics. Thus, a Volunteer of color may be questioned as about their U.S. citizenship.
In places where American stereotypes and/or caste system dynamics influence perception, Volunteers of color should be mindful of the reasons for these views without creating contentious environments. All too often, host country nationals are simply unaware of the diversity of the United States and require additional information and dialogue. Direct interactions with someone new or something different can take time to get used to, but those who take the time tend to be better off. Although host country nationals may assert that the United States is made up of predominately one race, we know that is not true. If a member of your community knows of compatriots living in the United States or of notable U.S. citizens of color, you can build on this knowledge as a point of reference for discussing diversity within the States.
For Volunteers of color, the range of responses to their skin color may vary from the extremely kind to the very insensitive. In African and Latin American countries, host country nationals may say "welcome home" to African Americans or Hispanic Americans. Sometimes Volunteers expect to be "welcomed home" but are disappointed when they are not. More commonly, if a Volunteer is mistaken for a hostcountry national citizen, he or she is expected to behave as a male or female in that culture behaves, and to speak the local language fluently. Host country nationals are sometimes frustrated when the Volunteer does not speak the local language with ease. Conversely, some in the same country may call you a "sell out" because they feel the United States has not done enough to help with social issues. These instances can be turned into teachable moments for the Volunteer and the host country national, in which the Volunteer can ask questions surrounding perception and collaborate with respect to issues and projects at hand, while engaging in cross-cultural exchanges. All Volunteers, to include white Volunteers and those of color, should be mindful of the issues of race that are embedded in U.S. culture and within the culture in your country of service. These issues may significantly affect how Volunteers interact with fellow Volunteers and host country nationals. Being open and inclusive to everyone will improve your experience in interacting with fellow Volunteers and members of your host community.
Volunteers from any minority group may be the only minority trainees or Volunteers within a particular program. They may work and live with individuals with no experience with, or understanding of, their culture. They may not receive the necessary personal support from other Volunteers or find minority role models within Peace Corps country staff. In general, host families and counterparts are very accepting of diversity among Volunteers, and close relationships are forged without any regard to ethnicity. In Georgia, African-American Volunteers may be evaluated as less professionally competent than nonblack Volunteers by host country counterparts. They may be called "negroes," which may not necessarily be used as a derogatory term, but as the local word to describe black people. Rap music is also popular and Georgians may inadvertently use words from the songs inappropriately. African-American Volunteers may find themselves the focus of constant staring, pointing, and comments.
Hispanics may have various reactions from host country nationals. Due to physical appearance, they may blend in their communities easier than other minority groups. Additionally, Georgians may embrace Latin Americans as old friends based on the historic speculation that Iberians once cohabited the country. However, Latin American Volunteers may also be subject to stereotypes as a result of the very popular telenovelas shown on Georgian television, or may also be perceived to be of Asian heritage. To combat potentially culturally insensitive comments, it's best to take these uncomfortable situations and turn them into opportunities for cultural exchange.
Likewise, Asian-American Volunteers may be the subject of stereotyped perceptions of behavior observed in films. Asian-American Volunteers of any background may be mistaken for Chinese citizens living in country. They may not be accepted as Americans and may be identified by their cultural heritage, not by their American citizenship. Asian-American Volunteers experience a large amount of negative attention in Georgia. Members of the host community and other strangers may harass AsianAmerican Volunteers, both verbally and physically. Staring and verbal provocations are common while traveling and also in Tbilisi (especially on the metro). The safety risks for Asians, particularly females, are very high. Some Georgians may believe Asian-American females to be prostitutes; therefore, Asian-American females are discouraged from traveling or being outside alone at night.
Possible Issues for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning/Queer, Ally (LGBTQA)[edit]
Volunteers For LGBTQ Volunteers: Given Georgia's traditional values, sexual orientation and non-conforming gender identities might not be discussed openly. In some cases, the LGBTQ community may be stigmatized. Mindful of the cultural norms and country-specific laws, the decision to serve openly is left to each individual Peace Corps Volunteer. Many LGBTQ Volunteers have chosen to be discreet about their sexual orientation and/or gender identity within their host communities. Some LGBTQ Volunteers have chosen to come out to community members, with a result of positive and negative reactions, while some have come out only to select Peace Corps staff and Volunteers. Dealing with questions about boyfriends, girlfriends, marriage, and children may, at times, be stressful for LGBTQ Volunteers. You may find that Georgia is a less open and inclusive environment than you have previously experienced. Please know, however, that Peace Corps is supportive of you and Peace Corps staff welcomes dialogue about how to ensure your success as an LGBTQA Volunteer. More information about serving as an LGBTQ Volunteer is available at the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Peace Corps Alumni website at lgbrpcv.org. Additionally, the Peace Corps' LGBTQ employee resource group, Spectrum, can be reached at email@example.com.
For Ally Volunteers: Peace Corps staff intends to create open, inclusive, and accepting environments. As an agency, the Peace Corps encourages Volunteers to serve as allies to their LGBTQ colleagues in order to create a safe environment.
LGBTQ Volunteers have served successfully in Georgia and have very fond memories of their community and service. LGBTQA support groups may be available in your country of service, providing a network to support the needs of the Peace Corps LGBTQA community. Peace Corps staff will work with Volunteers to provide them with locally informed perspectives.
Georgia has very traditional gender roles for men and women and social expectations are for people to get married and have children immediately after marriage. Homosexuality in Georgia is not openly discussed or accepted. For their own cultural integration, as well as safety and security concerns, most LGBT Volunteers choose not to reveal their sexual orientation to their host family, local friends, or counterparts. While there is an underground gay community in Tbilisi, finding support may be difficult since Volunteers are placed in rural communities where very traditional gender roles are the norm. Lesbians and gays will have to deal with constant questions about boyfriends and girlfriends, marriage, and sex (as do all Volunteers). Wearing an "engagement ring" may help. Gay men must deal with machismo; talk of conquest(s), girl watching, and dirty jokes.
Possible Issues for Volunteers with Disabilities[edit]
As part of the medical clearance process, the Peace Corps Office of Health Services determined you were physically and emotionally capable, with or without additional medical support, to perform a full tour of Volunteer service in Georgia without a significant risk of harm to yourself or interruption of service. The Peace Corps/Georgia staff will work with disabled Volunteers to support them in training, housing, jobsites, or other areas to enable them to serve safely and effectively.
As a disabled Volunteer in Georgia, you may find that you face a special set of challenges. In Georgia, as in other parts of the world, some people may hold prejudicial attitudes about individuals with disabilities and may discriminate against them. There is very little of the infrastructure to accommodate individuals with disabilities that has been developed in the United States.
That being said, as part of the medical clearance process, the Peace Corps Office of Medical Services determined that you were physically and emotionally capable, with or without reasonable accommodation, to perform a full tour of Volunteer service in Georgia without unreasonable risk of harm to yourself or interruption of your service. The Peace Corps/Georgia staff will work with disabled Volunteers to make reasonable accommodations for them in their training, housing, jobsites, or in other areas to enable them to serve safely and effectively.
Possible Issues for Volunteer Couples[edit]
Before committing to Peace Corps service, couples should consider how different degrees of enthusiasm about Peace Corps service, adaptation to the physical and cultural environment, and homesickness will affect their lives. It can be helpful to recognize that your reactions to these issues will change throughout your service, and you may not always feel the same as your partner. You and your partner will have different jobs, different schedules, and difference societal pressures. One partner may learn the language faster than the other or have a more satisfying assignment. This can create competition and put different kinds of stress on each person. Anticipating how these pressures will affect you and your partner differently throughout your service can help you remain a source of support for each other. Making friends with other Volunteers is a critical part of fitting into the larger volunteer culture and can also be a good way to expand your support network. While couples will live together during their service, they may live in separate towns during their preservice training. This is a stressful time for most Volunteers, and it can be helpful to discuss in advance how you will deal with this potential separation. Your partner can be an important source of stability but can also add stress to your training experience. You may feel torn between traveling to visit your partner and focusing on your training, your host family, and friends you have made at your training site. Couples often face pressure from host country nationals to change their roles to conform better with traditional Georgian relationships. Georgian men and women alike will often not understand American relationship dynamics and may be outwardly critical of relationships that do not adhere to traditional gender roles. It is also helpful to think about how pressures to conform to Georgian culture can be challenging to men and women in very different ways. Considering how your partner is being affected and discussing what, if any, aspects of your relationship should be changed can help reduce stress for you both.
Possible Religious Issues for Volunteers[edit]
In Georgia, Volunteers are frequently asked about their religious affiliation and may be invited to attend a community church. Volunteers not in the practice of attending church may be challenged to explain their reasons for not wanting to go, but it is possible to politely decline if the church or religious practice is not of your choice. Georgians often assume if you are not Orthodox, you must be Catholic and you may need to offer an explanation, especially if you are another Christian religion. Georgia is generally a tolerant society for religious diversity, even for non-Christians, and most Volunteers facing these issues have found effective ways to cope and have come to feel quite at home in Georgia. Atheism, however, may be less understood.
Possible Issues for 50+ Volunteers[edit]
Senior Volunteers may find their age an asset in Georgia. They will often have access to individuals and insights that are not available to younger Volunteers. On the other hand, they will be in a distinct minority within the Volunteer population and could find themselves feeling isolated, looked up to, or ignored. Seniors are often accustomed to a greater degree of independence and freedom of movement than the Peace Corps' program focus and safety and security practices allow. Pre-service training can be particularly stressful for seniors, whose lifelong learning styles and habits may or may not lend themselves to the techniques used. A senior may be the only older person in a group of Volunteers and initially may not feel part of the group. Younger Volunteers may look to an older Volunteer for advice and support; some seniors find this to be an enjoyable experience, while others choose not to fill this role. Some seniors may find it difficult to adapt to a lack of structure and clarity in their role after having worked for many years in a very structured and demanding job. More than younger Volunteers, older Volunteers may have challenges in maintaining lifelong friendships and dealing with financial matters from afar. They may want to consider assigning power of attorney to someone in the States. Respect comes with age in Georgia. Younger Volunteers may have to work harder than their older colleagues to be accepted as professionals. On the other hand, older Volunteers may feel isolated within the Peace Corps overseas because the majority of Volunteers are in their 20s. In training, seniors may encounter frustration in not having their needs met for an effective learning environment in areas such as timing, presentation, and style. They will need to be committed to developing an effective, individual approach to language learning. During their service, seniors may work and live with individuals who have little understanding of, or respect for, the lives and experiences of senior Americans.

Euro 2012 qual. - Gyan strikes as Ghana hold England
Asamoah Gyan struck in stoppage time to earn Ghana a deserved 1-1 draw with England in a superb friendly encounter at Wembley Stadium.
The Sunderland striker left Joleon Lescott for dead before slipping the ball beyond home goalkeeper Joe Hart from inside the area as the clock hit the 90-minute mark.
Andy Carroll seemed to have handed Fabio Capello's men the victory when he lashed a left-foot shot low into the corner of the visiting net after he had been played in by Stewart Downing's deft knockdown.
It was his first goal for England, and the Liverpool striker enjoyed a fine evening before being replaced by Jermain Defoe around the hour mark.
Capello made seven changes from his side's 2-0 win over Wales in the Euro 2012 qualifier at the Millennium Stadium on Saturday with Gareth Barry installed as his stand-in captain - the fifth man to be handed the job under the Italian coach - but he could have few complaints about the men that were brought in.
An inexperienced England side moved the ball around with a freedom that has not been seen at Wembley in recent times against a Ghana team who were equally committed to attack.
Hart, Glen Johnson, Jack Wilshere and Ashley Young were the only England players who started against Wales in Cardiff.
Manchester City man Hart was first into action as he raced from his line to block Dominic Adiyiah's shot on seven minutes with the home defence cut wide open.
England responded immediately as Dowining forced John Mensah to knock a cross behind his own goal on eight minutes before the Aston Villa winger walloped a shot wide of the target on 10 minutes with play raging from end to end.
England were almost in for the opener on 23 minutes when James Milner accepted a lovely pass from Downing before crossing for Young. He seemed destined to net, but somehow saw the shot rebound off the bar from five yards with Blackpool keeper Richard Kingson beaten.
Hart produced a sublime stop on 25 minutes to claw out an effort from Adiyiah on 25 minutes after Sulley Muntari's floated free-kick had evaded the England defenders.
England's opening goal was a thing of beauty as Downing knocked Young's pass into the path of Carroll, who rattled a shot beyond the despairing dive of Kingson. It was his first goal since December.
The second half was disrupted by the usual rash of substitutions, but there was no lack of energy or commitment from either side as Barry managed to deflect John Pantsil's volley over the bar on 58 minutes.
Milner forced Kingson to make a diving stop on 63 minutes before Gyan knocked a shot into the side of the home net when it looked easier to score.
Danny Welbeck, who could have played for Ghana, just failed to connect with a cross from Leighton Baines on 84 minutes in the heart of the Ghana box, but Gyan was to have the final telling say of the night when he showed some sublime skill to tuck the shot away from Hart low to the keeper's right.
England have yet to fall to defeat to an African nation, but Ghana and several thousand of their superb fans will treat this draw like a victory after a thoroughly entertaining contest.

Erik and Christine 2 by Thwan-ConduWatch
©2005-2016 Thwan-Condu
So this is an altered version of the OTHER Erik and Christine pic I submitted. I decided I just couldn't live knowing her face could be done better. I think I made her look a little older than I wanted, but it's better than before! Well, at least the eyes and nose are. I think the mouth, although fairly decent, are a bit more cartoony than before. Anyway, enjoy!
PS, you get a nice dodgy border too!
PS, you get a nice dodgy border too!
And yet, he's still not the most horrible thing I've ever seen. call me weird, but I'm even kind of attracted to him. I guess I just like those little imperfections that make people unique.
I love Erik's face!FINALLY someone who draws him as described in the book!
Love the way Erik looks in this, and Christine's beautiful.
May I just say...
Your signature of Repo: The Genetic Opera makes me so extremely happy. <3 I have not met many people who like Repo or even know of it.

Orangeburg District was established in 1769 and included the counties of Lexington, Orange, Winton and Lewisburg. It was named for the Prince of Orange, William IV (1711-1751), who was also the son-in-law of King George II. The name was first used in the 1730s for a township on the Edisto River. Orangeburg District was established in 1769, and from 1785 to 1791 it included four counties: Lexington, Orange, Winton, and Lewisburg. Swiss and German farmers began settling the area about 1735, with English settlers from the low country following.
During the Revolutionary War, the battle of Eutaw Springs was fought on September 8, 1781 which was the last major battle of the war in South Carolina. Afterwards, large cotton plantations were established.

Brasel Antoni has not received any gifts yet
When done correctly, Gynexin can do it for the right individual. I don't guess that you will want to forget the theories dealing with some platitude. Nothing I have done with it has worked that well. You may be totally off track here, but I thought I'd mention it to give you a frame of reference. Let me bend your ear for a moment. There is just not a lot of information out there on getting doing that to decrease in value. It is how to tell if this kind of thing isn't working. This has been the largest Gynexin ever recorded.

Tebow not a side show, just trying to make Patriots' roster
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Tim Tebow and Tom Brady took turns, zipping passes over the middle and lofting tosses toward the corner of the end zone.
On his first day with the Patriots, the New England newcomer was just a backup quarterback, No. 5 on his helmet and number three on the depth chart.

Theatre Journal
Volume 59, Number 1, March 2007
pp. 119-121 | 10.1353/tj.2007.0065
As the audience entered REDCAT's 250-seat staggered auditorium to witness the second visit of Grupo Cultural Yuyachkani to Los Angeles, the actors were lighting candles and cleaning the semi-lit stage. The deliberateness of their movements suspended the moment in a liminal space between reality and fiction, as this scene functioned both as staged action and ritual cleaning. This single moment powerfully communicates Yuyachkani's vision of popular theatre as an activity that, in the process of merging art and life, requires a semi-religious devotion. Indeed, in its thirty-five-year trajectory as one of the most socially committed Latin American theatre collectives, the group has often engaged with religiosity as a crucial player in Peru's turbulent political history.

In the play Santiago, the character of Saint Santiago lends greater political dimension to the company's questioning of post–civil war Peruvian identity. Santiago becomes an icon of past and recent atrocities against indigenous and mestizo populations. True to the meaning of their name—yuyachkani is Quechua for "I am thinking / I am remembering"—the group's latest play merges dream with reality, past with present, as the memories of the earlier peninsular Reconquest allegorize both the Spanish Conquest of America and the recent guerilla war that ravaged the country for decades.
As program notes explain, during la Reconquista, the figure of Santiago was transformed from a peaceful follower of Christ into the Moor-slaying Patron of Spain; in the Conquest, he became a killer of Indians. Ironically, Catholicism's colonizing force turned Santiago into the holy patron of many Peruvian towns, venerated by the largely native and mestizo population. Through a set of haunting images and precise expressionist acting, this production suggests that, although forgotten by most Peruvians, a syncretic connection between Santiago and the Andean god Yllapa motivated this odd veneration. In fact, Yuyachkani stages the failure of this veneration, thus generating more questions than answers.
The main action of the play takes place over a few hours within the confines of a church, centering on the efforts of church caretakers to prepare the statue of Santiago for an annual procession. Due to the war, these three caretakers—the only survivors of the town—have been unable to honor their patron saint for many years. For the Hispanic Mayordomo and his mestiza employee, Bernardina, the procession would restore order and bring meaning back to their lives. Yet, for the subaltern indigenous character, Rufino, to honor Santiago would betray his cultural identity. Rufino thus decides to adopt the language, masks, and clothes of an Andean trickster deity in order to betray the attempt to restage the procession.
The brilliance of the work resides not only in the mix of pathos and irony, but also in the juxtaposition of this simple plot with a layer of magical realism. The Christian mestiza Bernardina, who prays to Santiago and rejects any syncretism between him and Yllapa, dreams that the Mayordomo becomes Santiago and that the Indian Rufino becomes the archetypal Moor. Ironically, in her dreams the Moor and Santiago engage in long discussions and duels that suggest that the massacre and subjugation of the native population have been facilitated by Christianity, and that the equation between Moors and Indians has been pivotal in this process. Although many of the puns articulated in Spanish and Quechua are lost in the English supertitles, Yuyachkani actors deliver their battles of wit with such epic tone, and their physical fighting with such clear corporeal language, that the tension translates superbly.
The reconstruction of Santiago's processional float undoubtedly conveys the perpetual tension between these archetypal characters. In Yuyachkani's staging, Santiago rides a white horse whose front legs are about to step on the Moor lying underneath. However, since the caretakers cannot find the statue of the Moor, they forcibly tie Rufino, the Indian, under the horse-riding saint's statue. Playing with tempo gradually transforms this physically enacted scenario into a tableau vivant, instilling this image with due tragic significance. Not only were the Indians massacred by the Spanish...

Bulger or Frerotte
Do you guys think Bulger or frerotte should start next week against Arizona? I say put in Bulger for the 1st quarter and see how he does considering the cardinals pass D is not that great. If he is taking too many hits thanks to our injured line then we should bring in Frerotte. Bulger today against Dallas missed alot of open WR and he threw a clumsy INT in the red zone. After the 1st quarter it cannot hurt to give Frerotte a chance. We really dont have much to lose.
-09-30-2007 #2
Re: Bulger or Frerotte
I think he needs to sit out against the Cardinals. I think we play the Ravens in two weeks, so he really needs to rest. The Cardinals aren't any better than the Rams and I think Gus should be able to exploit them. Too bad we still won't have Steven Jackson back, but I actually think the Rams will win tho... Damn injury bug, this season reminds me of the 05-06 season when the Rams went 6-10.

Re: Bulger or Frerotte
Marc Bulger shouldn't see the field again until he's either 100% healthy or has had a consultation with the Jamie Sommers medical team.

Forty years ago, I first tasted the original Pero drink and found it rather weak. This new dark-roasted Pero is fragrant, hearty and delicious. It does not seem to have been discovered by most stores, so I was very glad to find it at iHerb. I got seven jars, for the best price anywhere on the web and it arrived well-packed and quickly. I am VERY pleased with the transaction.

Never thought I would ever stop drinking coffee until I tried Pero. It has the rich dark roast flavor without the bitter taste of coffee and without the caffene. Great winter drink, can drink at night and not worry about it keeping you up. Will order again and again.

I was a committed Starbucks coffee drinker. After trying several other substitutes, I have settled on this Coffee substitute. For me, the jar will not make 150 cups, because I make it stronger. But I have found it a very satisfying substitute to coffee.

Eddie Vedder & Beth Ditto @ Rock Werchter 2012 - 6/29/2012
"Rock Werchter is a Belgian annual music festival held in the village of Werchter, near Leuven, since 1973. It is one of the five biggest annual rock music festivals in Europe (the other four being Exit, Sziget Festival, the Glastonbury Festival and Roskilde Festival). The 2003, 2005, 2006 and 2007 festivals received the Arthur award for best festival in the world at the International Live Music Conference (ILMC). It can host 85,000 guests daily, of which 67,000 combine all four days, to add up to a total maximum of 139,000 different attendees." [Wikipedia]You saw pictures from day one. Here we go with day two..
Day two of Belgium festival Rock Werchter kicked off for me with the still-reunited, classic California punk band X playing on the main stage. I stayed for their entire, great set which means I missed Belgium band School is Cool who were playing on the other side of the park. Judging by the bubbles seen on several attendees leaving that stage though, it looked like missed a fun time. Other bands on the second day, of this festival that featured so many big names, included Pearl Jam, Lana Del Rey, Jack White, Deadmau5, The Gossip, Beirut and many others
I couldn't make it to every band on all three stages each day, obviously, but I at least have a good excuse for missing Mastodon: I was getting a behind-the-scenes tour of the fest (many thanks to FIAF and Rock Werchter for the hospitality - and WAFFLES!). They took me behind the fences and gateways, to get a glimpse all that goes on to keep things moving. The scale and logistics were pretty mind-expanding. Some bullets:
- Rock Werchter goes for 4 days at the end on June, but initial setup begins in early May.
- More than 8000 are directly employed by the festival, with thousands more as subcontractors.
- More than 25% of the staff are directly engaged in security and safety of the venue and audience.
- Most staff are sourced locally to ensure direct local benefits from the festival.
- Rock Werchter is practically a small town, with everything but a school system on site (medical services, residences, offices, supply depots, repair stations, food services (including storage and preparation), and even on site garbage sorting and recycling.
- Thousands of large steel road plates are used throughout the facilities to protect the ground from vehicle traffic, and thousands of square meters of field and audience areas are also similarly protected using plastic and wood flooring.
No pictures from backstage, but more from who was playing on the stages, along with Pearl Jam's setlist, below...

The Cure & fans @ day 1 @ Rock Werchter - 6/28/2012
Flanders is a Festival! That was a new phrase to me prior to last week, and I've learned a lot since then underscoring the truth of it. For the uninitiated - Flanders (which includes Antwerp, Ghent, Brussels and Leuven) is rife with more than 280 music festivals per year. Belgium's Rock Werchter is one of the biggest, with three stages spanning four full days of music. It's been around and growing since 1974, and as it has grown, its line-up has grown with it -- this year's included The Cure, Garbage, Justice, Skrillex, Amon Tobin, and more, and that was just on day one.
I ventured to Belgium to cover Rock Werchter this year, and though exhaustion slightly delayed this report you're reading now, it was a great time, visits to Leuven and Brussels included (beautiful places to hang your hat for a visit). More pictures from the first day of the music festival along with some general shots from around Belgium, and video & the setlist from The Cure's set, below...

A nice comparison between the two cross platform devices. Personally, though i am not a fan of Windows Phones, your review makes one think about that option. With the exception of comparatively lesser number of apps availability, the Lumia devices are not that bad either. Hopefully, Microsoft keeps the track record of the the best in class hardware and build quality that Nokia has always offered.

Clive Wilkinson Architects Makes a Superdesk
Friday, February 27, 2015
Anna Bergren Miller.
|Brought to you with support from:
Endless table materializes intra-office connectivity in plywood, MDF, and epoxy.
When Culver City-based Clive Wilkinson Architects (CWA) sat down with representatives of the Barbarian Group to discuss renovating the advertising agency's new 20,000-square-foot office, one word kept coming up: connection. "Before, they were all in offices designed for one person, but crammed five in each, and scattered," recalled associate principal Chester Nielsen. "It was a pain. Bringing everyone into the open, and having them feel like they were all connected was super important." The architects elected to "surgically gut" the leased New York Garment District loft to create a central workspace for between 125-175 employees. To materialize the theme of connection, they zeroed in on the idea of a single work surface, an endless table later christened the Superdesk. With 4,400 square feet of epoxy-coated surface atop a support structure comprising 870 unique laser-cut plywood panels, the Superdesk is a triumph of programmatic creativity. "Building a big table was not an obvious solution," said Nielsen, "but it's a simple one."

Pratt Floats Student Work on a Mylar Cloud
Thursday, October 30, 2014
Anna Bergren Miller.
|Brought to you with support from:
Installation inverts conventional relationship between architectural models and images.
Each year, a group of Pratt Institute graduate students is challenged with pushing the boundaries of exhibition design as they curate the student work from the previous year. "The basic brief is for it not to be a show where it's work on white walls, but that there's an installation component," said Softlab's Michael Szivos, who co-taught the 2014 exhibition course with Nitzan Bartov. The spring show coincides with the publication of Process, a catalog of student projects. "The book shows it in that more normative condition, year by year," said Szivos. "The installation works in tandem with that. The hope is that the students come up with something different." This year Szivos' students passed the test with flying colors, constructing a floating display out of Mylar, medium-density fiberboard, cardboard, and Tyvek that upends the conventional relationship between architectural models and two-dimensional images.
Tietz-Baccon Dials Down The Volume in a Textural Chicago Office
Friday, March 15, 2013

|Brought to you with support from:
Tietz-Baccon fabricated a 7-foot by 23-foot freestanding wall, and a 10-foot by 160-foot decorative wall for Enova's Chicago offices.
As more and more companies embrace open workspaces that support collaborative and impromptu group work, acoustics are of utmost importance to employee productivity. To craft sound-absorbing feature walls for the Chicago offices of financial firm Enova, Brininstool + Lynch turned to fabrication studio Tietz-Baccon. Their six-person facility in Long Island City, New York, makes bespoke solutions for a variety of design-minded clients who appreciate—and ultimately benefit from—the founders' architectural background: Erik Tietz and Andrew Baccon met as students at Harvard's Graduate School of Design.
"On the fabrication end, we take nonstandard projects and make them achievable by relying heavily on our digital capabilities," Baccon said. "Brininstool + Lynch had a concept that was worked out very well and was looking for someone who could execute on a tight budget in a short period of time." According to Baccon, the architects came to the fabricators with a family of shapes and a way of aggregating them, which was then applied to different materials, helping Tietz-Baccon deliver finished projects very close to the firm's original requests. "There was good collaborative discussion, and a back-and-forth to tweak and bring the concept to realization. They didn't have to compromise their idea that much."

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet recently announced that Owen County will receive $214,400 in County Road Aid emergency funds. The county will use the funds for a bridge repair on Natlee Slatin Road (CS 1119) located 2.2 miles from KY 2018 over Lytles Fork Creek.
These roads serve residents in Owen County. The repairs will make travel safer for cars, school buses and other vehicles.

The bankruptcy court and creditors will have the final decision, Baxter said the hospital's bankruptcy council will be submitting the offer to the court today or tomorrow.
Baxter said the offer, if accepted, would result in some creditors not being paid.
A well-kept teenager's bedroom. There was a place for everything and everything in its place, including the nine examples of drug paraphernalia that Georgetown Police Chief Mike Bosse hid inside the mock-up at the Owen County High School auditorium Oct. 13.
Bosse addressed an audience of 10 people about the dangers of drug addiction and some of the psychology behind addiction, as well as things parents and caretakers should watch out for to know if a teenager is in the early stages of addiction.
Owen County volunteer firefighters responded to smoke at 905 Hwy. 127 N., Owenton Center, Monday.
Owenton Fire Chief J.O. Powers said the motor to an HVAC unit was frozen when the unit came on.
"It heated itself up and got hot, started to smoke," Powers said. "The smoke filtered to the attic, that's when they called us."
The call came in at 8:37 a.m. Powers said firefighters were on scene within two minutes.
Powers said the facility's maintenance man cut the unit off.
What began as a burglary at a Wheatley home Oct. 14 ended with an injury accident and one patient flown to the University of Cincinnati Hospital.

1 Corinthians 11:27-32King James Version (KJV)
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
