Atlanta: Southern belles
Meandering past fields and farms, Long Point Road leads through Mount Pleasant, a suburb of Charleston, South Carolina. Magnolias and azaleas abound as we turn up the driveway to Boone Hall Plantation. Ahead, an avenue of mighty oaks. Spanish moss hangs from the branches and sways gently in the wind. In the distance, the pillars of the big house gleam a brilliant white. Our car advances slowly. Horses gallop on our right, and on our left, we glimpse old slave cabins back between the trees.
Boone Hall dates from 1681 and the first oaks in the avenue were planted in 1743. Cotton brought prosperity to the plantation, one of the oldest in the country. Still in operation today, it now produces mainly strawberries, tomatoes and pumpkins. At the end of the avenue we see the old cotton gin where the cottonseeds were once threshed out of the fluffy white bols, and next to it a rose garden and an old well house. Guinea fowl run about clucking, and the sweet fragrance of blossom mingles with the musty smell of marsh and swamp. One cannot help think of Gone With the Wind and Tara. Is that Vivien Leigh walking purposefully among the roses in her crinoline skirt?
Boone Hall lies right at the heart of the Old South. The first English settlers ar- rived in 1670 and began eking out a living on a peninsula between two rivers, naming their settlement Charles Town, after King Charles II. The town prospered thanks to cotton and rice, indigo and slavery. In 1861, the first shot of the American Civil War was fired in Charleston harbor. But luckily, despite heavy fighting, much of the city was preserved, including the old town and the Drayton Hall and Middleton Place plantations. The latter has the oldest landscape garden in the United States, and this is where German director Roland Emmerich's historical filmThe Patriot was shot. The cypress swamps of Magnolia Plantation are teeming with alligators. The largest one, 4,3 meters long and nicknamed Red October, sometimes dozes languidly right on the path.
"A lot of visitors are attracted by the Old South and the sense of romance it evokes," says Mike Lata, head chef at FIG, Charleston's most fashionable restaurant. Why?
Because Americans, he says, are increasingly interested in their history and in seeking authenticity. And ever since misfortune struck New Or- leans, which used to overshadow all other historical cities in the South, people have been visiting the region and driving through the Low Country between Charleston and Savannah, Georgia.
Continuing along the Savannah Highway, we cross the Ashley River, again passing farmhouses and marshlands, but also vultures and racoons. Route 162 is an in- credibly romantic stretch of highway and well worth a slight detour. Oaks and pecan trees line the road, their branches forming an archway overhead. And everywhere, Spanish moss. "It's the color of smoke, the color of amber and twilight," the French author Simone de Beauvoir wrote after visiting the region for the first time.
Elderly Afro-American women sit by the roadside on upturned pails, selling boiled peanuts and pickled okra. Slaves used to hide the seeds of the nutritious plant in their hair in order to smuggle it into the New World as a precaution for an uncertain future, or so the story goes. The Low Country, a region of uncultivated country around Charleston and Savannah, is home to the Gullah, descendants of former slaves who still master their people's ancient handicrafts. People here speak a mixture of English and African languages.
We stop at Beaufort on Port Royal Island, one of the loveliest towns in the Low Country, and sit down beside the Beaufort River. Pelicans sail sedately on the breeze, cormorants dry their wings and monarch butterflies flutter by on their long journey to Mexico. With a bit of luck, we may even catch sight of a dolphin here.
Beaufort, too, grew wealthy from rice and indigo, and palms and banana trees grow in the gardens of the splendid mansions here. Camellias blossom amid shrubs bright with yellow, orange and fiery red leaves. Fall has arrived and Nature is changing her colorful coat even here in the South. We drive the last few kilometers to Savannah along Route 170 and Highway 17.
All of a sudden the Eugene Talmadge Memorial Bridge looms up like a mountain high above the broad Savannah River. You have to be careful not to let the view distract you and send you veering off the road. Down on the river, highly stacked container ships plow through the waters and into the world beyond. Just ahead is the old, historical part of Georgia's first city.
Church towers glitter in the evening sun and the brick fronts of the former cotton warehouses glow red along the waterfront. A shipload of English colonists landed here in 1733. Their charter: to found for King George II the city and colony of Georgia as a kind of buffer zone between Charleston and what was then Spanish Florida. From Talmadge Bridge, we drive along Oglethorpe Avenue straight into downtown Savannah, where elderly gentlemen in hats sit at the wheel of their Cadillacs, puffing on fat cigars as they drive over the bumpy streets. Bells ring, the air is fragrant with jasmine. And there's Spanish moss everywhere here, too; it even creeps over traffic lights and gas streetlamps. Savannah is a perfect movie set. It's where Clint Eastwood filmed Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. The movie Forrest Gump, starring Tom Hanks, was also shot in Savannah.
"Savannah is Charleston's whacky, but less swanky cousin," says Ryon Thomp- son, the great-grandson of Southern soul food chef Sema Wilkes.
Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room restaurant is just as wonderfully whacky and consists of a single basement room with a kitchen next door that's been serving the same good, home-style cooking since 1943: fried chicken, baked beans in tomato sauce, candied yams, banana pudding. Savannah's old town also survived the destruction that the Civil War visited on so many southern cities. When Northern troops under General William T. Sherman arrived in December 1864, the people surrendered without putting up a fight and the city was spared. In fact, General Sherman was allegedly so delighted by the beauty of Savannah that he sent a telegram to Presi- dent Lincoln, offering him the city as a Christmas gift.

Eric Delko is a Crime Scene Investigator working for the Miami-Dade Crime Lab. He is a Level 3 CSI, specializing in fingerprint and drug identification.
In "Shattered", Delko's job is endangered when he is arrested for drug possession, but it is discovered that the marijuana was for his sister Marisol to ease the pain of her leukemia treatments. Marisol was murdered by a Mala Noche sniper after she married Delko's boss, Horatio Caine. Eric is also the team's underwater recovery expert. While trying to rescue a woman kidnapped by escapee Clavo Cruz, Delko was critically wounded by one of Cruz's henchmen. He survived and rejoined the team.
Delko left the team temporarily in season eight but returned to the series temporarily in Delko for the Defense, when he consulted a defense lawyer in a murder case.
His best friend is Ryan Wolfe and his girlfriend is Calleigh.
His personailty is kind and caring. He takes things personally, especially cases which he feels strongly about.
Skills and Abilities
Eric Delko is the fingerprint, tires and drug identification expert of the Miami-Dade Crime Lab, as well as their underwater recovery expert. Delko has a bachelor's degree in chemistry from the University of Miami, where he played right field for the baseball team (and is a former college classmate of wildlife conservationist Jeff Corwin) and is fluent in Spanish.
Delko often acts as a diver for the CSI team, and has tried to get Ryan Wolfe to train as a diver on several occasions.
Early Life
Eric's father, Pavel Delektorsky, was a Russian national who had been assigned to Havana during the 1960s, married a Cuban woman, with whom he had three daughters. When his mother was pregnant with Eric, his father decided that he wanted a better life for his family, so he moved the clan to Miami not long after, and shortened the family name to Delko in an effort at Americanization.
It has been recently revealed that Eric was born in Cuba before his mother and adoptive father arrived in the USA before receiving fake birth documents for him. Delko pressed his mother for the truth after he revealed that he knew his American birth certificate was a forgery, and had acquired his real birth certificate from Cuba. He told her he became suspicious after realizing several key facts in the story of their arrival in the US changing each time she told it. Also she told him that his biological father was a terrible man, and wanted to shield Eric from him by hiding his identity with the forged papers. It was Delko's biological father, in fact, who had ordered the hit on him.
In the season 8 opener, it was revealed in a flashback that Eric discovered a BMW that was dumped in the Everglades with a body in the rear, and called Detective Caine. Eric was a tow truck driver at the time and was on a quest to find sunglasses for Caine. As he knew the area quite well, he helped Caine recover the murder weapon which Caine used to prevent an innocent man from going to jail. In this same episode, Eric meets Calleigh and hits on her by saying "Are you going to give me your number now or later?" Calleigh's response is that she doesn't date people she's even remotely involved with at work, and Eric replies "Ok, for now." Caine, impressed by Eric's eye for the minute details, convinces him to go to the police academy, get his badge and work for the new CSI team later.
Season Seven
In the Season 7 opener, Delko and Duquesne are especially confused and angered by Caine's shooting, and Wolfe's handling of the situation immediately after their arrival on-scene. Delko later found out, however, that this was all staged by Caine, Wolfe, and the ATF to allow Caine to go undercover and apprehend a major ammunition distributor in Miami. Eric was still somewhat hurt that Caine would choose Wolfe over him, but Horatio told him in person that the decision to include Wolfe over him was due in no small part to Caine's desire to protect Delko and his career at the Lab should the undercover operation prove unsuccessful.
In the season 7 finale he attempts to help his Cuban father escape from the grips of the Russian Mob. However, the CSI's arrive on the scene and Calleigh shoots at the car he is helping his father escape in before she realizes that Delko is in fact the driver. When they reach it after it crashes, it is covered in blood, which his father claims is Eric's. In the next episode it is revealed he is alive and is wandering in the Everglades.
Season Eight
In season eight, episode five ("Bad Seed"), Eric left the CSI team for many personal reasons. Horatio left a note on his windshield saying, "I'll always be here. H."
A few episodes later, Delko returns in the episode Delko for the Defense as a special guest star, to become an expert witness for defense against his former team. In the beginning of the episode, it was revealed that he was in Puerto Rico. He then tells Calleigh that he missed living in Miami and decided to come back. In the middle of the episode, Calleigh tells him that the district attorney is looking for a forensics expert and Delko tells her that he will think about whether or not he wants to get his job back. In the end of the episode, Delko discusses things with the D.A. and may be asking to return to the CSI team (music prevents the viewers from hearing the conversation).
Eric has been involved with a number of women, including co-worker Natalia Boa Vista (who at one point thought she might be pregnant with their child in Skeletons. Despite Natalia's apparent duplicity (he told an FBI agent that she slept with him to get information regarding the lab), he remains protective of her when her ex-husband harasses her at crime scenes under the pretext of performing his duties as crime scene cleanup ("Throwing Heat").
He has a close relationship with colleague Calleigh Duquesne; they care very greatly for each other - Calleigh is the one by his side when Eric is in the hospital, gravely injured ("Man Down") - Calleigh and Eric are now in a relationship. Despite any appearance of womanizing on his part, Eric Delko is actually protective of women in general, standing up for them against abusive men.
Delko also maintained a friendship with fellow CSI Tim Speedle, who is killed in a shootout when his firearm jams because of poor maintenance ("Lost Son"). It had been Speedle that 'welcomed' a rookie Delko to the lab with a friendly hazing ("Speed Kills"). Eric is at first deeply resentful of Speedle's replacement, Ryan Wolfe, especially when some of Speedle's previous cases comes under review ("Hell Night";"Whacked"). For some time, there is a measure of verbal sniping between the two. At one time, Ryan is called in to a crime scene on his day off when Delko does not come and is injured when a suspect shoots him in the eye with a nail gun. Unsurprisingly, Ryan is upset with Eric, but in the end they work out their differences ("Nailed") Eventually, Delko comes to accept Ryan's presence, and they become strong co-workers and friends (and perhaps even more than friends).
- Eric's unit number as MDPD police officer is (at least at the time of Nailed) 529.
- Eric drinks Cafe Cubano, at a strength Tim Speedle considered to be "rot[ting] [one's] stomach" (Losing Face), and causing OCD-ridden Ryan Wolfe to be twitchy for hours.

I agree with a few of the members. This has nothing to do with what a photographer is looking for when it comes to a tablet.
However there is a small device you can plug into the charge area on the tablet that is an SD/USB/Memory Card reader, it's like $5 and it seems to work pretty well.
Hope this comment helped!

Another way to Celebrate Tax Day for the refund or the 'SCREAMS' you want
to throw out there for what you owe!!
"The Austin General Mail Facility will accept collection until midnight on April 18 for last minute tax filers.
The U.S. Postal Service facility at 8225 Cross Park Dr. will be the only late night collection point in Austin that day.
The retail window will still only be open until 5:30 p.m. All mail dropped before midnight that day will have
the April 18 postmark, the deadline for filing tax returns.
Many Austinites will likely take note of the late drop box as
the city was ranked 4th worst tax procarastinatingin the U.S.
The tax filing deadline was pushed back this year to April 18 from April 15.
Taxpayers that ask for an extension will have until Oct. 17 to file their 2010 tax returns."

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- The Richmond County Health Department has announced dates for tuberculosis testing and reading at Butler High School.
Here is the testing and reading schedule:
- Testing will take place Monday through Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
- TB tests placed on Monday will be read on Wednesday.
- TB tests placed on Tuesday will be read on Thursday.
- TB tests placed on Wednesday will be read on Friday
- TB reading will take place Thursday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
If a student is not tested during this time, they can go to the Health Department at 950 Laney Walker Boulevard between 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Wednesday starting Nov. 12.
The scare started earlier this month when a student was believed to have contracted TB. Since then, students who have had contact with the student have been tested. Originally, only a smaller circle of students were tested, but testing was opened up to all students after students outside of the believed infected group had positive test results.

A Texas teacher is under fire after she hung a classroom flag upside down after the election.
Harker Heights High School parents said their children came home the day after the election complaining that their history teacher, Sharon Smitherman was so upset about the results that she hung the classroom flag upside down.
"After the pledge of allegiance the teacher asked did they notice anything different about the classroom and the children said 'no.' She went on to tell them that the flag is upside down and the reason that the flag is upside down is because our nation is in distress and we are turning into a socialist nation," said Dwayne Brown, whose daughter is an 11th grader at the school.
Brown asked his daughter "'Well what do you want to do?' She said the principal needed to know. So we sat down and we wrote an email and sent it to the principal," Brown said.
Harker Heights, which is located just outside the Ft. Hood military base, is home to over 2,300 students, most of who are soldiers' children.
Rhonda Howard, a military veteran who has served three deployments to Iraq, initially heard about the incident from her coworkers and later asked her son about it.
"I asked him 'Have you heard anything about a teacher and a flag?' He said, 'Yes ma'am. That's Ms. Smitherman. She's my third period history teacher.' So I said, 'Why did she say that she turned the flag upside down like that?' He said, 'She said our nation is in distress because of the President,' Howard said.

Rohas Sadimoti, to be referred as Roh for all purpose of this column, is a 26 year old young male of Asian origin who came into the Dental Clinic for 'something weird and irritating' that he wanted to show to the Dental Surgeon (DS).
As he sat in the Dental chair Rohas said, "Doctor in reality I have no pain or any major complaint. It looks as if the under side of my tongue is constantly rubbed against. It is a prickly feeling." The DS instructed Rohas, "Take the tip of your tongue to the left side."
The patient tilted his tongue to reveal its right lateral side. With the same angular slant on the right side the tongue the left lateral side came into view. The DS said, "The lower side surfaces of your tongue are normal".
The DS raised the tip of tongue to check the front ventral area. A calculur mass yellowish brown in colour was seen attached to the mucosa below the tongue about the floor of the mouth. It was a concretion possibly formed by the deposition of calcium salts. The composition of the calculus resembles that of tartar found on the surfaces of teeth.
Rohas however had a calcular deposit, also called salivary duct stone, which must have been expelled from the duct and remained attached to the mucosa.
The DS tried to extricate the salivary duct stone carefully with the tweezers. The stone partially broke into pieces, The DS took hold of the stone with two tweezers in two hands. The stone was removed without any dramatic effect.
The DS said, "This condition is also referred to as sialolithiasis. This simply means occurrence of calcareous deposits in the salivary gland. There are patients with involvement of a duct of a major salivary gland.
These patients may complain of moderately severe pain if the duct is blocked. The blockage of the duct prevents free flow of saliva. The saliva, stagnating in the duct may create pressure and produce pain and swelling. Fortunately there is no such obstruction in your case.
It is a clear cut case of expulsion of the stone. In some individuals a large number of small stones may be found blocking the salivary duct system. In your case palpation has been done of the area and there are no more stones".
Deposits of calculus in the salivary ducts may occur at any age, but is most common in middle aged adults. About 64 per cent of cases are associated with the sub maxillary gland and duct, 20 percent with the parotid gland and duct, and about 16 percent are connected with the sublingual gland and duct.
The sialoleith or salivary duct stone removed from Rohas's mouth was elongated and rough. It measured about 0.5 cm by 0.3 cm. The average composition of the calcular deposit consists of calcium phosphate 74.3%, calcium carbonate 11.1%, soluble salts 6%, organic matter 6.2% and water 2.2%.
Rohas's case was unique in that the DS had not seen a sialolith in his clinical dental practice since 1973. He had carried out supragingival and subgingival scaling (cleaning) and polishing of complete mouths of more than 2,500 patients. Removal of tartar and stains was the focused aim of this procedure.
With cleanliness and hygiene of the patients restored they went about their daily chores with equipoise but conscious of the fact that this would have to be an annual routine.
Rohas's mucosa from which the salivary stone was removed was tinged with a mild dabbing of iodine. The area was covered with a little gauze. Rohas was told to discard the gauze after five to seven minutes placement in the mouth so that iodine would not spill all over the mouth.
Rahas was told, "If you have anything as weird and irritating fitting your original description of the sialolith please do not hesitate to call the Dental Surgery".
It is about one year now. Rohas Sadimoti is totally freed of sialolithiasis.

In the above illustration, the distance between the lands is 243/1000ths of an inch so this is a .243 caliber firearm. Knowing this, we can purchase the correct ammunition for a firearm.

Beautiful Job!
This is a commission piece that I did for Big Iron Vault for their rpg: World of Lykarnia.
The map shows Lykarnia (natch). The brief was to do this map in a similar style to my previous maps, Vaniya and Aronbor, but during the creation I was fiddling with various settings and blend modes and Keith at BIV liked the way it was going and decided to let me run with it, which was cool, giving me a chance to try other things that I wouldn't ordinarily have done.
There aren't many labels on the map at the moment per request. Obviously it would look better if it was packed with lots of nice labelling but Keith at BIV will have the final PSD file so he can add labels as he populates the map more.
This is posted at 50% size. I'm not sure if the full-sized image will be a free download from his site or available only for those who purchase the rpg. You can see several areas from the map at full size in the WIP thread. Keith said in the WIP that he will post notes on the various regions around Lykarnia for background for your own RPG's if you so require. So bug him for those if you'd like them.
I've posted the initial sketch that I worked from for comparison, should anyone be interested. It shows more labels but these weren't required. The label "the marches" has moved to a different area. I think that whole area basically stretches from White City to where it has been placed. Anyway, it was changed on a subsequent image I received showing where the cities and labels needed placing, hence the move.
Fonts in the map are:
Ancestory SF for the cartouche (downloaded from font101.com).
ITC Garamond for the labels on the map. I think this is a standard PS font? Can't remember downloading it.
The textured paper background is from Coyotemax, downloaded from his thread in the mapping elements forum so thanks a lot for that.
Thanks to all those who offered advice, thoughts and inspirational comments in the WIP thread. As some know, I had a break in the middle of creating this and the comments in the WIP thread helped create the impetus to get back into it. So thanks for taking the time to comment.

Ameda Elite Breast Pump with Detachable Cord
- Product Review (submitted on October 30, 2009):
- This is by far the best pump out there. I love this pump and wouldn't use any other after trying this one. The only bad thing is that the valves are very fragile and you have to replace them often because they tear easy. But nonetheless, this pump is worth the money for sure!!!!!

ANAHEIM – Disneyland is introducing two new characters to the theme park to promote upcoming movies – "Secret of the Wings," on DVD, and theater-bound "Wreck-It Ralph."
Disneyland and Disney California Adventure have regularly promoted upcoming films by putting characters in meet-and-greet areas at the parks, as they did with Merida from "Brave" and Tiana from "Princess and the Frog."
So welcome, Periwinkle.
The Frost Fairy, Tinker Bell's sister, has joined the Pixie Hollow area in Disneyland to promote the straight-to-DVD movie that comes out Oct. 23. "Secret of the Wings" is the fourth in a series of fairy movies.
Members of the Fernandez family, which had preordered the latest fairy-movie DVD, were glad to come across Periwinkle at Disneyland.
"We're so excited for the movie to come out," Monica Fernandez of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., told Periwinkle. "How about Periwinkle? Does she get a hug?" she said, encouraging her 6-year-old daughter to embrace the white-haired, winged character.
Fernandez, who wore a Tinker Bell T-shirt, said the family has been waiting for about a year for the new fairy movie.
"This is a surprise," she said about coming across Periwinkle. "We're very happy about it."
In nearby Tomorrowland, crews are building a greeting area for "Wreck-It Ralph" that is to open Oct. 26.
That animated movie's protagonist is a video-game bad guy. Visitors will meet the characters and have the chance to play the "Fix-It Felix Jr." game from the movie. The film debuts in theaters Nov. 2.

Minister Reynders on the use of cluster munitions in Syria
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs Didier Reynders is especially disturbed by reports over the use of cluster munitions during air raids by the Syrian authorities. This type of weapon, of which the humanitarian damage is unacceptable and leaves traces long after the conflict is over, causes excessive suffering among the civilian population.
Belgium was the first country in the world to introduce a law banning cluster munitions and is also a major advocate for the universalisation of the international Convention on Cluster Munitions. This Convention came into effect in 2010 and is now supported by 111 countries. Didier Reynders therefore calls on the Syrian authorities to not add to the already very deplorable conditions for the civilian population by using weapons that are contrary to a widely supported humanitarian standard.

Miami, Fl - Humberto has strengthened to a Category 1 hurricane far out in the Atlantic, becoming the first hurricane of the Atlantic season.
Humberto's maximum sustained winds early Wednesday are near 75 mph. The U.S. National Hurricane Center says the hurricane could gain more strength before a weakening trend likely starts on Thursday.
Humberto is centered about 310 miles west-northwest of the southernmost Cape Verde Islands and is moving north-northwest near 8 mph.
Humberto was upgraded to a hurricane at 5am. The record for the latest forming hurricane is still held by Gustav in 2002. Gustav formed at 8am on this same date. So, Humberto was three hours short of tying the record.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Gabrielle is passing west-southwest of Bermuda, hitting the wealthy British territory with wind, rain and rough surf. Gabrielle has maximum sustained winds near 60 mph.

Resident Evil 6 is a third-person shooter which is aimed at players who enjoy a horror type scenario, and is the latest installment in the Resident Evil series. In this new release you take on the roles of various characters within the game, some of these include, Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, and Jake Muller, three of the seven characters at your disposal. During the game you must confront the forces behind a massive bio-terrorist attack and take on hordes of Zombies and the latest arrival of the J'avo, as you fight to stop the outbreak in this ultimate horror experience.
The game offers up to three scenarios with connected storylines which are unique and have their own style which is something I have not seen before in the Resident Evil games. There is also the option of allowing online players to join you during the missions. Unlike previous Resident Evil titles they have introduced health tablets where you can restore health with a simple click of a button.
Various weapons can be obtained throughout the game, and changing weapons can be done with relative ease, some of these weapons include, Knives, Bear Commander, Wing Shooter, Elephant Killer and Rocket Launchers. However some of these weapons can only be attained and used during certain missions. For instance the Rocket Launcher can be used on select missions and is only available in certain parts of the game.
A little about the Javo, members of this new race are harder to kill than the old style Zombies which you see in the previous Resident Evil. The Javo are much smarter, they plan and interact with one another in order to carry out an attack, they also have the ability to heal themselves.
This game is certainly on a par with other Resident Evil titles that have preceded it, bone chilling effects, heart racing scenes, those who like this type of game will find much enjoyment here with the added bonus being the use of multiple stories and characters and their interactions which makes this one of the best i've played in this series.

Comments On Jul 05, 2012:I have used this suit many times now and it has never let me down. While riding it is comfortable and it breathes very well not like other rain wear that you get wet from sweating I would recommend this suit to anyone that wants a good set of rain wear. and best of all it packs down so small that it fits in its own pocket.

On Saturday afternoon in the Swamp #10 Florida pulled the upset over #4 LSU, giving the Gators their biggest win in over three seasons. Inside the Gators caught up with a few of UF's 2013 commits to find out their reaction to this big win.Florida came away with the win in a packed house, did you expect that?Four-star defensive lineman Joey Ivie: "Actually I did, especially since they had a BYE week the week before. I felt like they had enough time to prepare and do some really good things. They came out there and balled out. The defense was on fire, straight shut out in the second half, and the only time they scored was two field goals.

Jennifer Hill
Posted by Gina | Filed under FLOR Events
Jennifer studied design, art history and printmaking at Massachusetts College of Art + Design. Following graduation, she spent two years developing a finer appreciation of color and pattern at the cosmetic company Fresh. She boldly stepped out on her own, building a design company routed in imaginary vacations around the globe. Her company has grown from an inspired collection of travel prints to designing custom patterns for individuals and clientele around the globe.
When Jen started her company, her dad had early on-set Alzheimer's and control of her own schedule allowed her to help care for her father while burning the midnight oil with pattern design. The first print in her very successful series Places I Have Never Been was Block Island, where her parents went to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. To this day she donates a portion of the sales of this print to the Alzheimers Association.
The Places I Have Never Been series has grown to include over 70 prints – each begins with her imaginings of towns that she had never visited and what pattern represents this locale – from the tourist attractions to the food you would eat and local characters you might meet. From Bangkok to Bozeman there is something for everyone. Each year Jennifer picks 12 new places to add to the collection.
From this original series, she has created several new series including the Map Series that was inspired by vintage flash cards. Each print pays homage to a country or state by sharing a little riddle about that place's history. We all have memories that are attached to geographic locals – where we grew up, perhaps a special vacation, or where we live now – these affections for place are what make JHill Designs such wonderful gifts…Jen then went on to tackle the alphabet with a series of Animal prints – each animal silhouette is filled with a colorful pattern … Monogramed baby gift, anyone ?
As an extra bonus, we discovered that Jen is a pretty avid Pinner – creating "mood boards" for each of her locations, not to mention a whole slew of other categories from Pattern Love to lots of interior design love, including Home Sweet Home - all great eye candy, if you have say, a few hours, to kill ! . The images above are from her Capetown board, ultimately lending itself to her Capetown print below.
I don't know about you, but I'm anxious to know where Jen is packing her bags for next, or her imaginary bags, as the case may be. If you are in the Boston area, you can find out first hand, Thursday, August 30th.

The paint was fresh at the premier of Ryan Johnson's Self Storage, showing through December 15 at the Suzanne Geiss Company. The installation—Mr. Johnson's first since 2010—included sculptures painted in delicate violets, blues, and grays. The paint fumes suggested he had only stopped painting because of the advancing crowd.
Despite the arrival of fashion and chatter, Mr. Johnson's installation held a subtle, enchanting command of the room. As I began to circulate, the crowd grew noiseless and passed out of sight. In front of me stood a large rocking horse: blue, wooden, and seatless. Formed as if in full gallop, its rockers were a sad restriction.
Near it two lovers are a moment from embrace, their long fingers reminiscent of Indonesian shadow puppets (Mr. Johnson spent much of his childhood in Southeast Asia). The figures do not actually touch, and are, to their misfortune, ever-close.
Johnson's mementos are playful and nostalgic at a glance, but upon further inspection, anxious in their liminal state; each object is wrestled to submission. Memories are, after all, impossible to fully grasp. They are personal, vivid, and mutable. In Self-Storage, we find a brilliant attempt to actualize the contours of his memories and their effect on his psyche. His last minute paint strokes suggest he was still wrestling to reveal their shape. This unfinished process is a welcome show of humility.
Several bronze miniatures, some of which are versions of larger works, are present throughout the room. One particularly emblematic piece depicts a man shackled to a ball and chain, with the ball in a wheelbarrow. Perhaps this is how to tackle memory: understand its substance and adjust to move forward.
And this might be a personal objective Johnson has yet to reach. A week after the opening—after the devastating Hurricane Sandy hit NYC—I returned to Suzanne Geiss. The doors were locked, but I peered through the glass and down the hall. There, I saw Mr. Johnson with a brush in hand, still painting.

Hostess Brands announced this morning that it is going out of business, and closing all plants - including one in Biddeford. The company filed a motion in U.S. Bankruptcy Court to begin liquidation - something it had threatened to do if enough of its striking employees did not return to work by 5 p.m yesterday. According to the state Department of Labor, the move will put about 500 people in Maine out of work. But as Samantha Fields reports, picket lines are still going strong at the Biddeford plant - and at others across the country - despite the fact that not all unions support the action.
Even after Hostess announced that it's begun the process of shutting down the entire company, about 300 workers from the Baker's Union are still on strike. Out on the picket line in Biddeford, Dennis Lovejoy says the company's decision to sell off its assets hasn't changed the mood, or the strikers' resolve.
"Not much different than yesterday," Lovejoy says. "It's not over 'til it's all over. You can't trust anything they say. I'm sure there's still some other angle they have somewhere."
Members of the Baker's Union have been picketing in front of both entrances to the Biddeford plant around the clock since last Friday, rotating through four-hour shifts. And they say they'll stay out there until the plant officially closes.
But all indications are that Hostess is moving forward with liquidation. A sign on the door at the Biddeford plant (above) says that "Hostess Brands has closed all locations."
And in a written statement, CEO Greg Rayburn said, "We do not have the financial resources to weather an extended nationwide strike. Hostess Brands will move promptly to lay off most of its 18,500-member workforce and focus on selling its assets to the highest bidders."
Lovejoy and many of his fellow strikers say that even if the action does bring about the end of the company, it was the right thing to do. "Absolutely. There was no choice. There was nothing left here."
Not everyone who works for Hostess in Biddeford feels the same way. Robert Prescott is a member of the Teamsters Union, which also represents a group of Hostess employees. The Teamsters did not support the strike and were willing to agree to wage and benefit cuts.
Prescott has been at the company for 17 years, and until recently, was making $60,000 a year. "I was still willing to accept, myself, as agreed to, the concessions," he says. "I would take $42,000, as opposed to zero. And that's exactly what this came down to."
The Teamsters say they understood the company's financial difficulties. They had a representative who reviewed the books and advised them that the concessions were necessary for Hostess' survival, and not just a company ploy.
Teamster Robert Bundy is a transport driver who's worked at the Biddeford plant for 13 years, and was expecting to earn about $90,000 this year. While he doesn't fault his fellow co-workers in the Bakers' Union for forcing the company's hand, he says he does take issue with the union's national leadership.
"They were on a death march," he says. "It's the first strike I've ever heard of where they didn't want their money back. They said they want their money and their pension back. But what they really wanted was to close the company."
Though the Teamsters and Baker's unions disagree over the strike, they do agree on one thing: More than anything, they blame Hostess - a company they say has not been interested in making bread, in managing its finances, or in taking care of its employees, for years.
Some Hostess employees are not entirely convinced yet that Hostess will follow through with liquidation. But if it does, many of them hope that another company will come in and buy the plant - and keep it operating.
It's something Biddeford City Manager John Bubier says he's prepared to facilitate. "The value in the existing plant is clear, and I think that we would certainly offer our assistance in trying to market that and trying to work with IBC if that is something they would like us to do," he says.
Bubier is already making calls about putting together a team to work on finding a buyer for the plant. Conversations are also underway at both the city and state levels about helping the hundreds of soon-to-be-unemployed Hostess workers with unemployment benefits and insurance coverage.

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is scar tissue in the filtering unit of the kidney. This structure is called the glomerulus. The glomeruli serve as filters that help the body get rid of harmful substances. Each kidney has thousands of glomeruli.
"Focal" means that some of the glomeruli become scarred. Others remain normal. "Segmental" means that only part of an individual glomerulus is damaged.
Segmental glomerulosclerosis; Focal sclerosis with hyalinosis
The cause of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is often unknown.
The condition affects both children and adults. It occurs slightly more often in men and boys. It is also more common in African Americans. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis causes up to a quarter of all cases of nephrotic syndrome.
Known causes include:
Symptoms may include:
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. This exam may show tissue swelling (edema) and high blood pressure. Signs of kidney (renal) failure and excess fluid may develop as the condition gets worse.
Tests may include:
Treatments may include:
The goal of treatment is to control the symptoms of nephrotic syndrome and prevent chronic kidney failure. These treatments may include:
More than half of those with focal or segmental glomerulosclerosis develop chronic kidney failure within 10 years.
Complications may include:
Call your provider if you develop symptoms of this condition, especially if there is:
No prevention is known.

Ovation Travel Group, working in conjunction with Carbonfund.org, a leading national environmental non-profit organization, determined the carbon footprint (the total carbon dioxide emissions) of its business travel and is offsetting its carbon footprint by investing in clean, renewable energy. Ovation Travel Group will invest in renewable energy, energy efficiency and reforestation projects to offset the metric tons of CO2 produced through its business travel in 2006 as well as for the future.

Along with offsetting its own carbon footprint, Ovation Travel Group will make this ECOvation initiative available to its clients. The ECOvation initiative provides a simple way for any company to invest in carbon offsets to help neutralize their impact on climate change. Participants in the initiative can take part at whatever level they are comfortable with including offsetting all or a portion of their business's carbon emissions and reducing their emission baseline where possible. The process is simple and easy to start.
"Ovation and their clients are leading the way in the fight against global warming and proving that companies can meet the triple bottom line - profits, people and planet - in a simple and effective manner that will have tremendous environmental impact," said Eric Carlson, Executive Director of Carbonfund.org." I applaud Ovation for taking this step, and we are delighted to be working with them."

Grogan Stump
this wiki
- " [A being is] any creature that has sufficient intelligence to understand the laws of the magical community and to bear part of the responsibility in shaping those laws."
- —Grogan Stump.[src]
Minister Grogan Stump (1770-1884) was Minister for Magic from 1811 to 1819[5] and was very popular in the job.[3]
Early life
Stump was born in 1770, somewhere in Great Britain[3] to at least one magical parent.[1] He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he was Sorted into Hufflepuff,[4] from c. 1781 to 1788.
As Minister for Magic
In 1811, Stump began his duties as a Minister for Magic. Stump particularly addressed the nomenclature of beings and beasts. He decreed that a being was "any creature that has sufficient intelligence to understand the laws of the magical community and to bear part of the responsibility in shaping those laws", and by doing so, he settled a debate that had being going in the wizarding world since the fourteenth century. Stump created the three divisions of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures: Being, Beast, and later Spirit Divisions.[6]
It is likely [7] that during Stump's tenure in office there were ghost demonstrations at the Ministry of Magic (or "protest floats"), which caused Stump to create the aforementioned Spirit Division.[5] Stump's term eventually ended in 1819.
Behind the scenes
- Grogan Stump's likeness, as featured on his Wizard of the Month entry, bears some (presumably coincidental) resemblance to current President of Portugal, Aníbal Cavaco Silva.
- Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (video game) (Appears on a Famous Wizard Card)
- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (video game) (Appears on a Famous Wizard Card)
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (video game) (Appears on a Famous Wizard Card)
- Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
- J.K. Rowling's Official Site
- Wizard of the Month
Notes and references
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 According to Pottermore, Nobby Leach (Minister for Magic between 1962 and 1968) was the first Muggle-born wizard ever to be appointed to the office)
- ↑ Wizard of the Month
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 3.2 Stump's Chocolate Frog Card in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (video game)
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 Pottermore introduction for Hufflepuffs (transcription available here)
- ↑ 5.0 5.1 Sixth question of the Third W.O.M.B.A.T. at J.K. Rowling's Official Site
- ↑ Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (real)
- ↑ Of all the possible answers for question 6-2 of the Third W.O.M.B.A.T. this seems to be the more likely: the ghosts were also initially put in the Being category but successfully "asserted" the need for a Spirit Division. The ghost demonstrations seem to fit with them being "assertive".

Tried this level but seems not worth the effort for the reward. Eventually can be done but difficult to memorise so many cards. Any tips and tricks on how to do it as I am sure some people out there manage it.
I guess you could train yourself to be good and competent at it but any tips to speed up the process.
These two guides are also helpful
mirage master tutorial
tips and tricks for mirage master
in terms of turns there is enough turns to do it at all levels
75%of 48=36
3star=41 turns 1min 50 seconds
4star=39 turns 1min 35 seconds
5star=36?turns 1min 20seconds?
At that speed it is just very hard to do. You definately need breaks between goes at it as previous games will mess with your memory. If you make no silly mistakes and do not go too slow all difficulties are doable (maybe not 5 star). If you have a photographic memory it helps too.
