Holcim New Zealand is making big changes to its New Zealand
operations, by building a new $50 million import cement
terminal at Timaru's port, looking at selling its lime
operations including Dunback, keeping a new cement plant at
Weston on hold and combining management with Australia.
Work is expected to start on the 30,000-tonnes-a-year
terminal at Timaru's PrimePort in August, with a second,
worth another $50 million, in Auckland in December.
The two new terminals will each employ up to 50 people during
the construction phase and when completed each will have six
''This confirmation of start dates can be taken as a sign of
the global company's confidence in the strength of the New
Zealand market and in particular the opportunities with the
rebuild of Christchurch post-earthquake,'' Holcim NZ's
managing director Jeremy Smith said yesterday.
The Auckland terminal enabled Holcim to supply directly into
one of its major markets and the Timaru terminal gave access
to the major market of Christchurch.
Both should be operational by the second half of 2016.
Building an import terminal at Timaru was also consistent
with Holcim's option of eventually building a new cement
plant at Weston, which remained on hold, Mr Smith said.
Holcim intended to retain all the assets associated with the
Weston site and project.
PrimePort chief executive Jeremy Boys said the announcement
was heartening and positive, coming after discussions dating
back to last year.
It would also involve a separate investment by the port in
upgrading the No 2 wharf, providing infrastructure and
dredging, estimated to cost about $20 million.
Mr Boys could not say what contribution the terminal would
make to the port's income because that was commercially
sensitive, but said it was a welcome long-term addition.
Holcim in August decided imported cement would replace local
production at the Westport cement plant, which would close
once the two import terminals were fully operational.
Holcim is now reviewing its options for its lime businesses,
which could include divesting part or all of the lime
operations because they were outside the company's future
core focus.
McDonalds Lime Ltd employed 72 people at the country's
largest single lime quarry at Oparure, just north of Te
The company had manufacturing plants at Otorohanga and Te
Taylors Lime's 12 staff at Dunback had also been briefed
about the review.
A ''comprehensive process'' would assess the options with a
specialist to assist.
Mr Smith said the changes would eventually reduce the scale
and scope of the New Zealand business and require a smaller
corporate management, making it logical to combine it with
the Australian operations into one business.
Mr Smith's job would be disestablished at the end of this
year, but he would remain with the company into next year to
assist with the transition.
A country manager would be appointed for New Zealand later
this year, with Mark Campbell, at present Australian chief
executive officer, taking over the joint management.

For a lot of kids Vacation Bible School at area churches is as much a part of their summer schedules as are sports, favorite swimming holes, and homemade ice cream.
The VBS sessions usually center on a single theme involving kids in games and crafts, and—most importantly—seeking to teach biblical truths.
Though most classes continue several successive days or nights, the length varies as do the times school is in session. Following are examples of what some local churches are doing.

If we were to take a moment and evaluate our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, would our faith marvel Jesus or would Jesus say, "Oh you of little faith?" The Bible gives us examples of both these extremes. Peter was identified at one moment as having a faith that was small. In contrast, we read in Matthew 8:5-13 of a Gentile, centurion soldier who is identified by a faith that marvels Jesus. So does your faith marvel Jesus?

Nazis were super hot. 9/10 = hot.
As far as I'm concerned, it beats the hell out of fucking bicycles or picnic tables. At least there were real women involved.
Sins of the father, and all that.
He points out that it would be different if he had been speeding or driving drunk. But I wonder if he has ever sanctioned a driver for embarrassing the organization or the corporate sponsors? Big time racing exists to sell cars, and the ones paying the bills are only doing it for the PR.
Thanks for posting about this, Dan. When I first read the story last week, my first thought was, "where does Dan Savage stand on Nazi fetishes?"
Shoe = Nazi
Very interesting.
Why don' you ever see anybody dressed up as a Nazi on Halloween?
Were the prostitutes legal? Five of them, dressed in Auschwitz rags, five hours for a mere GBP2500. Elliot Spitzer is a mug.
OK, fetishes whatever. But I didn't know prostitution was legal in Britain--didn't he pay the women for sex too? And, as Fnarf pointed out @8, he didn't pay them very well either...
I thought you were supposed to pay hookers with punches and kicks...
This reminds me of Eating Raoul.
Requests for him to step down sort of struck me as par for the course. I mean, even if what he did was legal, since when do we say, ok, well, he followed the law, so nothing to see here people. When someone has a weird sexual fetish (Vitter's diaper fetish) or has an affair, we crucify them, even if what they did is perfectly legal.
It shouldn't be so, of course, but it is. He can take a stand against it, or he can accept that his credibility and effectiveness as a representative of the organization has been compromised (unjustly) and step down.
Take a stand? What, "yeah, I like to pretend I'm whipping concentration camp victims, got a problem with that?" He's shaming F1, the worlds richest sport (check out those driver salaries).
Which is fine by me. I'm pleased as punch, actually, because it's a hilarious story. The best punishment for him, as with all Nazis, is endless public ridicule.
Who released the film in the first place? It seems pretty apparent that one or more of the prostitutes must have known about the camera because I doubt Mosely released the film. The owner of the dungeon may have had it wired, but then one must wonder to what end? It doesn't appear to have been the first time he acted out that fantasy. It sure sounds like a set up.
#7 - In England at Fancy Dress parties, you can't throw a [insert something very, very English here that could also be thrown] without hitting someone dressed as Hitler. The context is a bit different there, though.
@15 -- spotted dick?
But I'm with @12 and @13 here. Sure, what he did may have been "harmless and completely legal", but he deserves punishment for his criminally bad taste.
The fact he has waged a personal war on anyone in the sport who 'brings it into disrepute', the fact he is a married man, the fact he is the figurehead of 100s of motoring organisations the world over means he simply has to step down.

The 6th Annual Eagle Expo, scheduled Feb. 10-12 in Morgan City, will feature seminars from wildlife and nature experts, a live raptor presentation, boat tours to view eagles and nests, and opportunities to meet fellow birders. Heading into its sixth year, the Eagle Expo is a tribute to the return of the American bald eagle to Louisiana, which was removed from the endangered species list in June 2007. Laws banning the use of harmful pesticides such as DDT and greater public awareness and education have increased the bald eagle population throughout Louisiana and the United States. Currently, there are 284 active nests in Louisiana with a large concentration in Terrebonne and St. Mary parishes. For a complete event schedule, costs, a registration form and listing of hotel rates, contact the Cajun Coast Visitors and Convention Bureau at 395-4905 or visit www.cajuncoast.com or email@example.com.

I'm trying to customize this great plugin and color the events by categories.
I've done with the titles in table and list view according to http://tri.be/coloring-your-category-events/.
I have also added the list of used categories in th top of the page. What I'm going do now is to customize the background for every category in that list. The problem is I do not know how to add the appropriate class for that (class="cat_nameoftehcategory").
This is the code for the category list:

$terms = get_terms("tribe_events_cat");
$count = count($terms);
if ( $count > 0 ){

The I-10 connector project has become much larger than lawmakers originally intended.
The road project which would connect Houston County to Bay County, Florida may now expand all the way to Montgomery.
This morning members of Focus 2000 went to the Montgomery County commission meeting.
Commissioners have adopted the same resolution that Dale, Geneva and Houston Counties already have saying that they will be involved in the project.
The I-10 connector has been in the works for two decades now, and legislators are still trying to get it on track.
New plans suggest that the road will connect with Interstate 85, come down to highway 231 and then lead to I-10.
"To me, that is a significant act because it gives us the reality that- yes- we are talking about a road from the coast to Montgomery connecting this little corner of the world with the rest of the nation. Not just a road from Dothan to the Interstate," says Mark Culver the Houston County Commission Chairman.
In Florida, Washington and Jackson Counties still need to approve the project, and now Pike County, Alabama will also be asked to join.

Glacial Change: Will The Arctic Council Meeting Be Just Another Missed Opportunity for Climate Action?
Climate change is slamming the Arctic more severely than any other place on Earth. Yet tomorrow's Arctic Council ministerial meeting in Kiruna, Sweden is not expected to produce substantial action to address it.
In short, glaciers are moving faster than efforts to slow them. Representatives from the eight Arctic nations, including US Secretary of State John Kerry, will gather to sign an oil spill preparedness and response agreement and vote on permanent observer status for other major nations with Arctic interests, including China and the EU. While the agenda includes presentations on ocean acidification and resilience, meaningful commitments to slow the devastating effects of climate change are unlikely.
Acknowledging the fact that climate change is occurring in the Arctic at double the rate of the rest of the planet, Gustaf Lind, Sweden's top Arctic official, stated in a pre-meeting press conference that discussions regarding reductions in the CO2 emissions that fuel global warming should be reserved for the United Nations process.
However, CO2 reductions are not the only means of curbing climate change, and smaller forums like the Arctic Council offer a rare opportunity to reach agreements without needing 190 countries on board. The last ministerial meeting in 2011 highlighted the role of black carbon in climate change. Black carbon — essentially soot from inefficient combustion, such as natural gas flaring, wood stoves and the controlled burning of agricultural waste — is particularly dangerous in the Arctic, where it darkens ice surfaces and accelerates melting.
Black carbon and other short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) are potent greenhouse gases that play a major role in driving global warming. However, new research from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography found that reducing SCLPs in conjunction with curbing carbon pollution could have a very powerful effect on mitigating climate change. Though the Council's Task Force on SLCPs has produced a significant body of research and recommendations, no commitments from Arctic Council members to curb their emissions were made in 2011 and two years later, SLCPs are on the agenda once again but without a plan to reduce their destructive presence.
Unfortunately, time is not on the Council's side. Last year was a very grim one for the Arctic, as record-low sea ice extent, record ice sheet surface melting in Greenland, record-high permafrost temperature, and record-low snow extent were all recorded.
Secretary Kerry has underscored the urgency of climate change in recent months, today offering "regret" that the US hasn't done more to address the problem. A new Arctic management plan released by the White House on Friday, however, was little more than a restatement of the vague goals for the region drafted at the end of the Bush presidency. In addition to advocating responsible stewardship of the Arctic ecosystem, the plan called for development of offshore oil and gas resources as part of the administration's "all of the above" strategy.
Offshore drilling in the Arctic comes with an enormous risk and cost due to the lack of infrastructure, oil spill response technology, baseline scientific knowledge, and preparedness to operate in the harsh and unpredictable conditions. Ironically, the dramatic changes experienced throughout the Arctic — many of which are the result of man-made climate change — are unlocking massive fossil-fuel reserves which, when burned, would only accelerate the destructive cycle of unchecked emissions and warming. Slowing the devastating steamroll of climate change requires slashing the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere, not opening up vast new sources of carbon.
At a time when climate change should receive top billing at the Arctic Council ministerial, allowing another meeting to pass without a concerted effort to deal directly with the pollutants that are driving the dramatic changes in the Arctic is a serious missed opportunity.

Kerry: 'Climate Change' Is a 'Life and Death' Issue
Apologizes for America's lack of action on "climate change." http://climatestate.com/2013/05/14/kerry-climate-change-is-a-life-and-death-issue/
John Kerry 'regrets' the USA's lack of action, does he? Words fail me. I'll laugh instead.
"Words fail me." We should be so lucky!
Super-do you not find your comment to be a tad hypocritical, given your own logorrhoea?
Sec Kerry has no authority to make any commitment at this conference.
From Kerry's Huffpo article this morning: "Receding sea ice might bring new commerce and industry to the region, including exploration of offshore oil and gas…"
And "We're focused on ensuring a secure, peaceful, and prosperous Arctic."
A "prosperous Arctic"! I feel ill.
So much for our environmentalist secretary's regrets.
Come now, I'm sure if you 'polled' Kerry on his attitude toward preventing climate change, he would be one of the 70% positive responders that 'you' and other members of the Amen Corner quote incessantly. He says the right words; in your world, that's hard fact!
No one should be surprised by these developments (no pun intended). Right now, the public perception is that climate change is future problem, one that we can defer addressing while we do things with more immediate (potential) payback, like pursuing the economic development of the Arctic region.
As I keep saying online, we have to think like politicians. They know the real deal with CC, but they see it as a problem they can kick down the street to the next administration. The don't want to take the political hit, either personally or for their party, by triggering another instance of Jimmy Carter Syndrome (speak the inconvenient truth, get crushed for it by deniers and political opponents).
Mainstream voters and consumers in the US are still acting like spoiled brats who dare not be told anything they don't like or they'll throw a hissy fit and pick new parents. Until that changes or we find politicians with the courage to show some (gasp!) genuine leadership, nothing will change.
I voted for the Green Party and have never supported this administration. That's a hard fact! So go ahead and hate blindly brother. And it might interest you to also learn, if you're interested in learning, that my sense of impending doom and futility is actually closer to your view than with some of the others you constantly denigrate. But it's about fighting for the children, future 'others', and the rest of the biosphere. Of course, one has to actually care in order to refuse to surrender to futility and hopelessness.
And BTW, I offered that "brother" in sincerity and not sarcasm as it is my heartfelt belief that all men are indeed brothers. One world – one love. So believe it or not, I love you Superman. Do yourself a favor and open your heart and let in some light.
Mulga is a thinker and fantastic writer. I really look forward to reading his comments.
Thanks Jim. I do think, however lucidly is up to others to decide. I do try to be honest about my conclusions, although I do modify them so as not to offend others' sensibilities. After all, this place is blessedly free of the disruptive morons who infest most other sites I have ever frequented, and who are so plainly favoured by the Rightwing MSM Thought Police.
'Prosperous' is important to the Senator. He is a VERY rich man with much invested in the capitalist system.
The type of 'leadership' that does not lead the followers to a better place is quite pointless. But 'leadership' that actually draws the followers into the Valley of the Shadow of Death is diabolical. A real leader would gladly sacrifice his or her life in the cause of saving humanity, if only for the sake of their own children, let alone everyone else's and the great achievements of humanity, of which we are but the present custodians and which deserve to go on for as long as possible into the future. That we live in a system which cannot throw up such leaders, but instead produces opportunists, dissemblers, servants of the money power, hate and fear-mongers, character assassins, prevaricators, poltroons and nincompoops tells me that the system is entirely malign, and must go. Then we can seek out the best amongst us to be our guides, and they will not resemble the current crop in any manner.
For the next two years Canada will be chair of the Arctic Council and the Harper government will be doing everything possible to promote oil and gas exploration and shipping, despite First Nations protests. I encourage everyone to join the Greenpeace campaign to protect the Arctic.
So surprised by this….not. BTW, anyone know if Kerry actually divested from his oil stocks 90 days after being sworn in as Secretary of States she said he would?
Kiley Kroh is the Associate Director for Ocean Communications at the Center for American Progress. Rebecca Lefton, Senior Policy Analyst, contributed to this post.

News Today in Put Bulls
posted by July 7 at 11:04 AMon
Apparently I have become the unelected leader of the anti-pit-bull movement in Seattleall due to a few Slog posts. This email came in over the weekend…
I don't know if you are interested in this but thought you should hear about this as I did a quick google search and your name came up as someone who may take interest from this story.
I just witnessed a pit bull (2 of them) attack tonight. I was photographing a family portrait at Discovery Park when these two pit bulls, unleashed came bounding by us. Then we started hearing hysterical screaming. When we looked back, we saw (what we thought at the time) a woman being attacked by the two pit bulls. It turned out it was her dog being attacked and she was trying to fend off these brutal dogs. Fortunately for her and her dog, two of the men I was with from the family portrait, ran over to help stop the attack. I thank God we just happened to be there as I fear it could have been a lot worse as she was all alone in the field by herself.
The dogs went on to attack another dog. In the meantime I had called 911 and they did arrive within about 10 minutes. I am not sure what happened after that.
And numerous pit bull fanciersapologists, collaborators useful idiots, etc.are sending me a link to a story in today's Washington Post. A few have suggested that I don't have the courage to post it to Slog. La la la, here it is. Dogs seized from pro-footballer Michael Vick's dog fighting operation have been rehabilitated, which proves that pit bulls are lovely, wonderful animalssee, even pits that have been brutalized can be rehabilitated!
More than a year after being confiscated from Vick's property, Leo, a tan, muscular pit bull, dons a colorful clown collar and visits cancer patients as a certified therapy dog in California. Hector, who bears deep scars on his chest and legs, recently was adopted and is about to start training for national flying disc competitions in Minnesota. Teddles takes orders from a 2-year-old. Gracie is a couch potato in Richmond who lives with cats and sleeps with four other dogs.
I trust the Washington Post will update us if any of Vick's pits snapif one of these dogs should be provoked by a squeaky wheel, say, or encounter a small child who fails to remain absolutely calm and stand there stock still when charged by a snarling pit bull. But defenders of pit bulls contacting me this AM aren't reading the fine print…
Of the 49 pit bulls animal behavior experts evaluated in the fall, only one was deemed too vicious to warrant saving and was euthanized. (Another was euthanized because it was sick and in pain.)
Of the 47 surviving dogs, 25 were placed directly in foster homes, and a handful have been or are being adopted. Twenty-two were deemed potentially aggressive toward other dogs and were sent to an animal sanctuary in Utah.
Yes, the majority of Vick's dogs have been deemed salvageablesort of. Only a "handful" are being "adopted," but that handful of dogs is more than vets and humane society professionals expected to save. But nearly half of Vick's dogs were deemed unsalvageable and, again, the "salvageable" dogs rest have not lived out their lives. I don't know about the parents of the two-year that adopted one of Vick's pits, but I wouldn't welcome a potentially violent dog into my home that had been chained, beaten, hanged, etc. Placing your child at risk of a injury or death to disprove a "stereotype" about a certain breed of dog seems the opposite of responsible parenting to me.

Unbelievably, Myles and Cait spent just $2000 on their incredibly detailed Maine wedding. Held at PLD Auction Barn in Mechanic Falls, the wedding was thrifty and gorgeous. Cait wore a dress made up of two summer dresses from oasap.com, $8 shoes from Goodwill and borrowed jewellery. Myles' outfit was also thrifted from Goodwill stores.
"Our wedding was different because we are not traditional people at all", wrote the bride. "We are both artists – a tattooer and a photographer – and both like to do everything on our own and try and save money doing it. We planned it all in seven months, as September 7th was one of the only weekends I had free from photographing wedding and we really wanted a Fall wedding. Our cornfield background at the venue definitely gives us a look like no other!"

Premium Content
Reports that Fox made a failed bid for Time Warner added a few more sparks to Senate Commerce's hearing on the video market Wed. The reported transaction suggested that "we are in an arms race," said Gene Kimmelman, pres/CEO of Public Knowledge. It's "no surprise that content companies bulk up," he said. Operators like Comcast and AT&T "started the ball rolling, and as we've seen from today's stories, we don't know where it's going to end," he told the panel. As expected, Comcast and AT&T execs faced another (3-hour) grilling by Democratic lawmakers over their respectively proposed mergers. Among committee chmn John Rockefeller's biggest concerns was whether the mergers would prevent access to content. "Does your company, and will it, enter any competitive contracts to prevent content companies from selling content to online video companies… Is there evidence that companies are locking up content?" he asked Comcast evp David Cohen and AT&T senior evp John Stankey. While it's a "No" from both, Cohen added that Comcast, through its NBCU unit, has made dozens of deals selling "vast amount of highly popular content" to OTT providers like Netflix and Amazon. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings was invited to testify but didn't make it. DISH, a vocal Comcast-TWC opponent, said its digital video service could be threatened by a bigger Comcast. "Comcast doesn't necessarily want us to succeed because we're competitors," said deputy general counsel Jeffrey Blum. "We are very concerned that a combined Comcast and Time Warner Cable will have an incentive and ability to stifle our service." Cohen shot back. "If we start blocking or degrading content then we're going to lose customers. So it's not in our interest to do so." Among other potential merger implications, Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) was again especially worried that a bigger Comcast, which would own 16 RSNs (5 from TWC) plus 16 local sports channels, will have enormous market power on sports programming. "Why not commit to offering all RSNs on an a la carte basis?" he asked Cohen. The problem is RSN programming is by definition local and negotiated market by market, so it doesn't make a difference owning 1 or 30 RSNs, the exec said. Using TWC's LA Dodgers net as an example, he said a bigger Comcast won't have any more market power than TWC currently has. And based on independent studies, mandatory a la carte would result in less consumer choice, less diverse programming and higher prices, Cohen said. "A la carte isn't the solution." Kimmelman, of course, disagreed. While MVPDs claim consumers have sufficient choice, the issue isn't whether services are available, he said. "You can't get a lot of the individual channels you want without paying a high price… What we don't have is a broader individualized selection driven by consumers… That's our problem." Aside from the usual debate on the mergers' impact on the broadband market, Ed Markey (D-MA) asked whether Comcast and AT&T oppose municipal broadband as a 3rd option, referencing Comcast's claim that most communities have at least 2 broadband providers. "I think it's a mistake to do to it, and so we will advocate at the municipal government level that we think this is a mistake," Cohen said. Clearly Markey wasn't satisfied. "More competition is the answer to all of these problems… My basic philosophy… is that Darwinian, eye-watering, bone-chilling competition is the answer to all regulation. The smaller the number of competitors, the more regulation you need." The bottom line, according to Cohen, is "taxpayer subsidy of poorly-run and ultimately bankrupt municipal broadband networks don't benefit anyone."

A family's musical education
My husband and I enjoy live concerts, which for us usually entails a trip downtown to the National. We most recently went to see a critically acclaimed French electronic band called M83. I'd heard a few of their songs before, but I wasn't sure what to expect of a live show. Lots of freaky lights, I guessed, and people a lot younger than us.
I was right on both counts. Even in the disco-ball darkness, I could tell that we were surrounded by a generation of people closer in age to our 12-year-old son than to us. I doubted some were even able to present a legal ID at the door. And the closer it got to show time, the more the youngsters invaded my personal body space. When the show started, I could hardly concentrate on the music because I was getting elbowed in the ribs by M83's seemingly biggest fan.
My outrage brought on a realization of my advanced age and a resultant questioning of my presence at such a concert. Perhaps I would have been better off going to see the Richmond Symphony, I told myself. I could sit in a comfortable chair and be confident of the irreproachability of my body space's boundaries.
Growing up in the shipyard city of Newport News, I never went to a live concert, unless you count "Annie the Musical." (I still have my t-shirt.) My high school years were spent over-listening to the likes of George Michael, Janet Jackson, and the dynamic duo Milli Vanilli. I was mired in Top-40 stickiness when I went off to college, where I couldn't walk down my dormitory hallway without hearing a different genre of music coming from each and every room.
And thus began my education – some might say the most important education of all.
While at college, I also had the good fortune of living so close to Charlottesville's Trax, where the Dave Matthews Band played its hearts out every Tuesday night in the early 1990s. There, in that smoky and beer-spilled room, I learned to appreciate the sweaty tangibility of a live show.
I could get up close to the stage and watch Boyd Tinsley's bare arm muscles force soaring melodies from his violin. I could watch the sweat drip off Dave Matthew's chin. I could watch the arc of Carter Beauford's drumsticks in order to anticipate the next song. I could sing and dance along with the crowd when they struck up "Lie in our Graves" and "Ants Marching." I could trip, and be tripped; it was all part of the fun.
Through the ensuing years, I became a bit of a music snob, eschewing pop music as meaningless filler. If I so much as heard a beat-box, I switched the station as if my ears had been burned with a curling iron.
And no surprise, my oldest children, ages 12 and 9, like Top-40 pop music pretty much exclusively. It's quite strange, but I've found myself enjoying some of it too, especially in the afternoons when I need a coffee but I'm stuck in the car chauffeuring my children to and fro.
Most of the songs scream of youth and insist on living in the moment (albeit at times inappropriately), but I believe that's something we all could try to do a little more often.
Through my children's eyes, I am now reliving and relearning pop culture. But I also want to teach them that there is more to music beyond the "40."
Over their initial protestations, I do my best to play different kinds of music while we're in the car. At home, we play what we like, and the kids inevitably start to dance and sing along. We take them to Richmond Symphony concerts, folk festivals, Landmark Theater musicals, local music events. We show them concerts on TV. And much to their chagrin, we insist on piano lessons.
When they are a little older, my husband and I want to take them to rock concerts with us. We might embarrass them, with our aging faces, comfortable shoes, and insistence on respecting personal body space.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'll give it my best shot. Hope to get out later this week and have another go at the big eared cone strippers. I saw a couple out in the backyard this morning. Unlike the tree rats in Kalifornia, these guys are content to much on pine cones. I haven't had one try to get into the attic yet.
I enjoyed your story. It was well written. It makes your reader imagine themself being there at the scene with you....and with such a healthy environment should expect to yield some healthy faunas as well. Please give us more of your airgun hunting advertures with pix. Thank you.

selection of my best films: j t sterkenburg
Muziektelevisie is a Groningen-based film duo consisting of J.T. Sterkenburg and K. de Vries. Their filming style is characterized by slightly surrealistic manipulations and a nostalgic undertone.
Inspired by many Scandinavian and other obscure movies, their narrative preference has developed towards a more implicit and demure way of story-telling. Aloof and sorcerous atmospheres, deceiving the viewer to get lost into his own tales, which will be recreated endlessly.

When inserting on a page an image that is more than 572px in height, it get resized automatically to a max of 572px tall - and not always resizing the width accordingly.
I first thought it was a question of trying to use full width page. Nope, even on standard pages, images get resized if they are > 572px in height.
Can someone help me as to where in a child theme I should make the required modifications to allow for showing more than 572px, i.e. the full height of my pictures? Thanks!

Sgt. Steve Maharidge, like many of his generation, hardly ever talked about the war. The only sign he d served in it was a single black and white photograph of himself and another soldier tacked to the wall of his basement workshop.
After Steve Maharidge s death, his son Dale, now an adult, began a twelve-year quest to understand his father s preoccupation with the photo. What had happened during the battle for Okinawa, and why had his father remained silent about his experiences and the man in the picture, Herman Mulligan? In his search for answers, Maharidge sought out the survivors of Love Company, many of whom had never before spoken so openly and emotionally about what they saw and experienced on Okinawa.
In "Bringing Mulligan Home, " Maharidge delivers an affecting narrative of war and its aftermath, of fathers and sons, with lessons for the children whose parents are returning from war today."

Elegy for the common man
Kent Haruf is a master of understatement, of spare, hauntingly simple prose that becomes even more powerful and affecting when read aloud. And that subdued strength is underscored by Mark Bramhall's performance of Haruf's latest novel, Benediction. Set, as are his previous novels, in Holt, a small town on the High Plains of eastern Colorado, it follows the declining days of Dad Lewis' life. In those last hot summer days, Dad—a good man with understandable flaws—remembers and regrets with unflinching honesty. As we meet his loving, patient wife of 55 years, his daughter, his estranged son, a few family friends and the newly arrived, troubled preacher, we also come to know their stories, their disappointments and missed opportunities—lives lived with quiet yearning and quiet acceptance, brushed by the big questions that don't get answered. The mood is elegiac, and Haruf's no-frills dialogue and descriptions mirror the flat, open plains and become a hushed celebration of ordinary people in ordinary circumstances, life-affirming even in the face of death.
Dale Maharidge's father, Steve, carried a deep rage within him—a rage he brought back from World War II and the Battle of Okinawa, along with undiagnosed and untreated PTSD and blast concussion. He talked little about the war but always kept a photo of himself and a fellow marine with him. When Steve died in 2000, Maharidge, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author, felt impelled to find out about his father's war. Over the next 12 years, Maharidge sought out and got to know many of the men who had served with his father. Now octogenarians, these members of the "Silent Generation" finally talked, finally described the carnage they and his father had been part of. Bringing Mulligan Home: The Other Side of the Good War, excellently performed by Pete Larkin, is memoir and history, a son's need to know his father, to understand why his father said, "There are no heroes. You just survive." Furthermore, Maharidge wants to "put the past in touch with the future"—to help the kids of this generation's soldiers understand that when the bullets stop, the war goes on for those who fought and for their families.
"Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?" Well, the Shadow knows for sure, and so does Brigid Quinn. White-haired, 59, tough, fit and prone to cracking wise, Brigid is a retired FBI agent, a legendary hunter of sexual predators and the unusual and unusually appealing star of Becky Masterman's debut thriller, Rage Against the Dying, narrated by the always-superb Judy Kaye. Though haunted by an unsolved case involving a diabolically crafty serial killer who murdered her protégé seven years ago, Brigid has moved on from crime and punishment—and from the horrors she dealt with daily—and has found never-expected happiness married to a former priest and philosophy professor. But her new life starts unraveling when a man confesses to the unsolved murders and Brigid, not buying this confession, begins a desperate, dangerous hunt of her own. OK, I don't want to spoil this ingeniously plotted story, so I'm not going to give you any more details; you're just going to have to listen. I got so hooked that I didn't want to take the earphones off until the very end.
