Statements this week from agriculture leaders reinforced the uncertainty surrounding the agriculture budget and the process for reauthorizing federal farm policy in the 113th Congress.
The New Year's fiscal cliff deal included an extension of the 2008 Farm Bill for one year, including existing Title I farm safety net programs.
Direct payments, which were targeted for certain elimination in the 2012 Farm Bill proposals that passed the Senate and House Agriculture Committee, were part of the extension, and USDA recently confirmed it will issue the payments this fall unless some other legislation changes the law before that time.
Threats to the program, which many farmers value but most in the public don't support, are expected to be numerous. This week, an unsuccessful amendment surfaced to move funding for direct payments to Hurricane Sandy relief.
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack said this week USDA will allow farmers to get out of – or into – the ACRE program for the term of the one-year extension. ACRE was written such that farmers had to remain in it for the life of the farm bill after signing up the first time. The extension evidently did not continue this specification.
With several serious fiscal issues looming before Congress, agriculture leaders are not yet setting firm timetables for new farm bill work.

The only sneaker MJ wore with 45 was the Air Jordan X, so don't miss this classic Bulls colorway.

Round Single Door 19-11/16" Surface Mount Metal Medicine Cabinet From the Croydex Collection
Single Door 11-7/8" X 19-11/16" Corner Mount Wooden Medicine Cabinet From the Croydex Collection
Band aides in the drawer, aspirin under the sink, and can't find the toothpaste. Sound familiar? A medicine cabinet is a great addition to any bathroom, keeping all of your bathroom essentials in one spot, organized, clean and easy to find. Medicine cabinets often do triple duty in a bathroom most importantly by keeping items organized, they also often function as the all important bathroom mirror while adding a bit of style and décor. There are many designs and styles to choose from which makes finding the perfect one for you a snap!There are three main designs of medicine cabinets, swing door, tri-view and sidewall. The swing door operates much like a traditional cabinet with one side hinged. Tri-view medicine cabinets have three panels, in some models the center is simply a mirror and the two side section open, other models all three sections open for storage. The side wall cabinets are mounted in an area other than above the sink and are longer in taller than the other styles. Within these styles you'll find surface mounted and recessed options. Surface mounted styles are simply mounted on the wall and secured into studs. Recessed mounted require a hole in the wall that the cabinet is secured within. Many different finishes are available from natural wood to metal, many also have mirrored surfaces but non-mirrored styles are also available.Style is up to you, look at your bathroom and decide what best fits your decor. For simple elegance, a frameless beveled mirror unit will look clean and stunning. For a country look, choose a medicine cabinet with crown molding or if your style is more modern and its simple lines you're after, a chrome or brushed nickel finish metal frame should suit your bath flawlessly. Bathroom Medicine cabinets come in various sizes and are available in many popular finishes.Still have questions about what type of medicine cabinet would be best for you? We carry top brands like Robern and American Pride. Call us and talk to one of our product trained representatives. Our sales consultants have hands on training and are ready to assist you with your product selection. If you are undertaking a bathroom renovation, our sales consultants also specialize in big projects and are ready to help!

Searchers find body of University of Alabama student missing in river
Published: Friday, June 21, 2013 at 11:49 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 21, 2013 at 11:49 a.m.
LOCUST FORK | Searchers have found the body of a University of Alabama student who went missing during a river rafting trip in Blount County.
Blount County's emergency management director, Max Armstrong, says searchers located the body of 19-year-old Allysa Huffstutler in the water Friday morning.
The University of Alabama released a statement offering condolences Friday afternoon.
"The University of Alabama family extends its thoughts and prayers to Allysa's family and friends during this sad and difficult time. She was a valued member of the campus community, and we will miss her," said Mark Nelson, UA vice president for student affairs.
AL.com reported that a state trooper helicopter spotted her body in the water. It was about a mile downstream from where she was last seen.
The young woman had been missing since Wednesday afternoon, when she was with friends floating down the Locust Fork of the Warrior River.
Huffstutler got separated from her inner tube in a rough section of the river. She wasn't seen again, despite being a life guard and scuba diver.
Authorities say muddy water and swift currents hampered the search.

Sink Technologies and Benefits:
- The Vessel Advantage: Beyond uniqueness and their distinctive modern design, vessel sinks also present a couple of functional advantages. Because the sink is raised off the countertop, overall bathroom clutter presents less of an issue as items are merely level with or below the sink rim, not towering over it and in the way of your arms. Furthermore, bowl-shaped vessel sinks actually free up countertop space directly under the sink rim. Lastly, vessel sinks are much better at containing splashes, making face and hand washing less messy.
- Handcrafted Quality: Kraus vessel sinks are handcrafted in a very labor-intensive process. Starting with only the finest materials, artisans work each sink through its various production stages, with complete control over the entire process. By using hands to get the work done, each Kraus vessel sink is a functional work of art that has seen great care and thought put into its creation. The end result is a flawless sink that shows its attention to details.
Faucet Technologies and Benefits
- Precision Kerox Cartridges: The cartridge's job is to deliver smooth handle operation and water flow, throughout hundreds of thousands of uses, without ever leaking – all while under a punishing 60 pounds-per-square-inch of pressure. For these reasons, it is quite literally what "makes or breaks" the faucet. Kraus understands this, so they take no shortcuts here, importing their cartridges from the world's leading manufacturer of high-end precision ceramic disc cartridges, Kerox in Hungary.
- Swiss-Made NeoPerl Aerators: Aerators are possibly the most under-appreciated component within faucets. Not only do they soften the stream (preventing splashing), but they also control the straightness, diameter, overall delivery of water. Fortunately, like their cartridges, Kraus recognizes this and chooses to takes no gambles here – they import their aerators from NeoPerl in Switzerland, the world's leading manufacturer for high-end and specialty aerators.

What new plants are you going to add to your garden this spring?
It's common for gardeners to look for new and exciting plants every year. And the horticultural industry always obliges by producing some, although not all of them are always the winners they are made out to be.
This year, however, there are some crackers that you will want to have in your scopes.
Hydrangea paniculata 'Vanilla Strawberry' is one. It is creating quite a stir, mostly from being featured in glossy home-and-garden-type magazines, because of its strawberry pink flowers with creamy (vanilla) white tips. This is a hardy shrub that grows to about 1.8 m (six feet) and flowers from midsummer through to fall.
Hydrangeas are increasingly popular, especially the new Double Delight line developed by Ball Horticultural in Chicago. This series contains such attractive cultivars as 'Wedding Gown', an early blooming lacecap-type with white densely-petalled flowers.
There are also mophead-type hydrangeas in this collection, such as 'Expression' and 'Freedom', that are considered "re-blooming" because they produce flowers in summer and again in fall, having the ability to bloom on both old and new growth.
Another new introduction from Ball is a super-hardy, compact weigela called 'Merlot Pink' that has rosepink flowers. It is low-growing, reaching 60 to 90 cm (two to three feet) by a little wider.
'My Monet Sunset' is another very good weigela with gold-red foliage and pink flowers. Like 'Merlot Pink', it is also able to survive in gardens where temperatures dip well below zero.
Among buddleias, there is a line called Flutterby Petite that has caused quite a stir because the four cultivars in the series are all non-invasive and cold-hardy to Zone 5 (-29 C).
But the variety many gardeners are falling in love with is 'Blue Heaven,' which is "ultracompact" growing only 1.2 m (four feet) high and blooming virtually non-stop.
One plant that I had fun growing last year that will be more widely available this spring is Salvia 'Juicy Fruit', a lovely container plant for adding chartreuse foliage as an accent. This is being grown exclusively by Alfred Kwan at Western Independent Greenhouses (WIG) in Burnaby.
Brian Minter, owner of Minter Country Gardens in Chilliwack, is a nurseryman after my own heart who always has his finger on the pulse of gardening trends, especially new, quality plant introductions.
This year, he is also smitten with Hydrangea 'Vanilla Strawberry', but also highly rates a few other interesting shrubs, such as Physocarpus 'Amber Jubilee', a new form of ninebark.
"The new growth takes on shades of yellow-orange, maturing to lime green, then purple in the fall," Minter says.
In the small tree category, he loves Cercis 'The Rising Sun' because of its "amazing foliage," which starts out a shade of rosy-apricot and eventually changes into golden-tangerine by summer.
For vegetable gardens, Minter is recommending 'Gold 'n Green Mix' French beans, 'Crofton' carrots and 'Defiant' tomatoes as three guaranteed performers.
And for a sweet treat, he reckons strawberries 'Berries Galore' and 'Berri Basket' are the tops.
Heritage Perennials in Abbotsford always has new offerings for spring.
This year, John Schroeder has again produced his list of 10 favourites, which includes some fabulous flowering plants, such as the orange/ purple bi-coloured ice plant called 'Fire Spinner' and the first compact floriferous dwarf double echinacea called 'Piccolino'.
His list of star performers also features a blue clematis called 'Bijou,' developed by Raymond, that only grows 30 cm high, making it virtually a ground cover; Rudbeckia 'Little Star,' considered an improved, more compact version of the classics 'Goldsturm,' and Gaillardia 'Moxie,' a sure winner with its bright ruffled yellow flowers.
For those looking for a dramatic accent plant, there's Hosta 'Empress Wu,' which grows into a giant lush mound at least four feet high. This is not one for small-space gardens.
Itoh peonies have been around for at least a decade, but Schroeder says the cultivar 'Lollipop' with its pink bicolour flowers has generally been so rare that it was out of most people's budget.
"This is the first year this outstanding plant is available at a price that everyone can afford," he says.
"It has enormous, lightly fragrant flowers that hold up to wind and rain and contain magnificent colours not previously seen in garden peonies."
Completing his list of favourites are Helleborus nigercors 'Honeyhill Joy,' noted for its "exceptionally strong, clean, weather-resistant foliage'; Heuchera 'Spellbound,' a perfect purple foliage plant for containers; and Iberis sempervirens 'Masterpiece,' a large-flowered white candytuft that thrives in sun or partial shade in the garden or in a container.

Historian and author Jane Wehrey will speak about her latest book, "Images of America: The Owens Valley" at the Tuesday, November 19 meeting of the Historical Society of the Upper Mojave Desert. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. at the Historic USO Building, 230 W. Ridgecrest Blvd.
Using "Images" with its wealth of rich and diverse photographs, Wehrey will explore the many meanings of the bold and beautiful land that John Muir once called "a country of wonderful contrasts." Inhabiting its complex and tumultuous past are the native people, miners and farmers, speculators and city-builders whose values, aspirations and labor have shaped the Owens Valley as we know it today.
The interplay of landscape and human activity figures prominently in Wehrey's imagining of the Owens Valley and of the three books she has written about it. Wehrey demonstrates that the valley's early communities developed along patterns found throughout the American West, as struggling frontier outposts often evolved into today's settled towns, while lively mining boomtowns could fail and simply disappear. By the early 20th century, the Owens Valley's fortunes and livelihoods had become inextricably entwined with a far larger historical backdrop: the growth of distant cities and their search for water in the arid West. The inception and building of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and the "water wars" that followed are indisputably the valley's best-known history but no less dramatic was the grassroots effort to lift the region from economic and social despair into a new era.
Wehrey spent much of her youth in the Owens Valley. As a research associate at the CSUF Center for Oral and Public History, she led research and oral history projects under contract for the National Park Service as it developed the former Manzanar War Relocation Center as a national historic site, and she was an advisor on the documentary film shown in the Visitor Center. She is also the author of "Voices from this Long Brown Land: Oral Recollections of Owens Valley Lives and Manzanar Pasts" and "Manzanar."
HSUMD meets on the third Tuesday of most months. Meetings are free, and all are welcome to attend. For more information on this and future meetings, call (760) 375-8456.

- Why Mighty Leaf?
ML African Amber Organic Herbal Tea Tin
ML African Amber Organic herbal tea is made from African rooibos leaves that mingle with lush notes of mango, vanilla and hibiscus for a smooth, vivid cup.
3.5 oz loose tea in tin
Organic rooibos leaves, natural flavors, organic hibiscus flowers, organic marigold flowers
Herbs and Fruit
Fine, needle-like rooibos leaves, dried flowers
Lively tropical notes
Jewel red liquor
Rich and full body with a honey-like and tropical flavor
Preparing the perfect cup of tea is a process to be savored. Watch how the traditional elements harmoniously come together to make the perfect cup and enjoy the liberation of pure tea goodness.
This is what we call the Mighty Leaf signature multi-sensory ("sensory melange") tea experience. Come share with us and learn how to get infused.
The quality of tea is affected by the quality of water used to prepare it. Using filtered or bottled water is best. If possible, avoid brewing tea with tap, distilled or mineral water. Never over-boil water, as it results in flat-tasting tea.
1) Heat filtered or bottled water to a rolling boil or to 205 F. 2) While the water is heating pour hot water into your teapot and cups, let sit and then drain completely. A warm teapot will maintain the requisite temperature for superior tasting tea.
Whole Leaf Tea
Slowly open up our specially created, sensually handcrafted tea pouch and enjoy the aroma of fresh herbs and fruit. Use one Mighty Leaf tea pouch per cup.
Infusion Time
Pour water over tea pouch. Time steeping carefully and infuse for 5 - 7 minutes. Watch how the herbs and fruit within the pouch have room to gracefully expand in your cup, creating a rich and flavorful infusion and a superior tasting tea.
Savor the Leaf
Sip your cup and rediscover the pleasure of the way tea was naturally meant to be. This is the magic of Mighty Leaf.

Health Benefits
Rooibos (Aspalanthus linearis)
Research has shown Rooibos contains an unusually high amount of flavonoids similar to that in Green Tea. These flavonoids are thought to prove effective in combating harmful free radicals which can cause cancer, heart disease and strokes.
Naturally caffeine free, Rooibos also possesses other medicinal properties including the ability to lessen the body's reaction to allergies and calm upset stomachs.
Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa)
Naturally rich in Vitamin C, Hibiscus cools the body, helps lower cholesterol and relaxes the body.

USDA numbers reflected this week what farmers have known for awhile: much of the nation's winter wheat land is bone dry and struggling to produce a crop.
In a crop progress report issued Monday, the Department said wheat in 18 states rated 26 percent very poor or poor, 41 percent fair and 33 percent good or excellent. These are the worst ratings since 1985.
By comparison, last year at this point, 13 percent was very poor or poor, 35 percent was fair, and 52 percent was good or excellent.

London-based design studio The Church of London took time out of their somewhat busy schedule (clients include the BBC, Canon, Honda and Sony) to produce a special, one-off newspaper which has only one theme - happiness. And it's no coincidence that it has been released today, Monday 16th January, which is supposedly the most depressing day of the year! Aside from the inspiring and positive editorial, it's well-designed with some nice illustration work – a great achievement given that they've pulled it together in only 7 days.
You can check out the online version of The Good Times plus a day-by-day diary of the whole production here.

Billy Graham on camera: new message out this fall
Published: Monday, May 20, 2013 at 10:24 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, May 20, 2013 at 10:24 a.m.
MONTREAT, N.C. (AP) — Christian evangelist Billy Graham may be hampered by age and declining health, but he isn't done preaching yet.
The Charlotte Observer reported Monday (http://bit.ly/17Tj9Jt) that the 94-year-old has been talking on camera for months. The Charlotte-based Billy Graham Evangelistic Association plans to distribute his filmed comments on TV, DVD, and the Internet in November as part of a new nationwide evangelical effort.
Association chief of staff Ken Barun says Graham is talking about how he sees today. The cameras catch Graham mostly fielding questions in his Montreat home posed by visiting Baptist pastor Don Wilton of Spartanburg, S.C.
Billy Graham's last crusade was in 2005 in New York. Since his wife's death in 2007, he has spent most of his time at his home.

ASPEN - November has been quite a pain for Lindsey Vonn.
The four-time World Cup overall champion is working to regain her form after a puzzling intestinal virus that landed her in a Vail hospital for two nights last week.
Though she was forced to curtail her training, Vonn proclaimed Friday that she is healthy enough to race in this weekend's Aspen Winternational.
At least in one event, anyway.
The 28-year-old will take part in today's giant slalom on Aspen Mountain's Strawpile course but has opted to skip Sunday's slalom to conserve energy for next week's trip to Lake Louise, Alberta. She has won four straight races at the Canadian resort - which affectionately has been referred to as "Lake Lindsey" - including a rare sweep of two downhills and a super G in December 2011.
Vonn was a late scratch from last year's slalom on Ajax because of lingering back pain.
"When I thought of the possibility of not racing here, it made me really sad," Vonn told a throng of reporters and photographers at the St. Regis.
"It's definitely been a rough couple of weeks, and I've been working hard to get my strength back to be ready for tomorrow. I'm not exactly sure what to expect, but I'm just excited to be able to race in my home state in front of the home crowd. Racing, to me, is the fun part."
Vonn was attending the U.S. Ski and Snowboarding Association's Gold Medal Gala in New York on Nov. 7 when she said she came down with a stomach virus.
When rest and medicine did not alleviate the problem, she was admitted to the hospital.
"I'm not going to lie. It was really bad," the Olympic downhill gold medalist admitted. "It was definitely the most pain I've ever been in in my life. I'm not a person who willingly goes to the hospital. ... I was not happy about it, but it was definitely worth it. I was at a point where the pain was too severe, and the medication I was getting wasn't working. I needed to resolve it."
Doctors eventually identified the right antibiotic to combat Vonn's symptoms. She was released and spent nearly a week in bed before doing some freesking at Vail on Nov. 17 and light gate training the following day.
"It's still a struggle with my appetite, and I definitely lost some strength and some cardio stamina," she said. "I feel like the strength is back, but I'm still more out of breath than I normally am, especially her in Aspen with the high altitude and the steep, difficult course. I get a little more tired than usual, but every day I've gotten a lot better. Before, I couldn't do half a free run before I was falling over."
Vonn has eased back into training this week with a relatively light workload. In addition to freesking, she's completed three full downhills and just two three-quarter-length GS runs.
Vonn has not competed since Oct. 27 in Soelden, Austria, where she clipped a gate with her left hand on her second run and crashed. She skipped Nov. 10's slalom in Levi, Finland, as was originally planned.
"I'm still taking it day by day to get to where I was," she said. "I'm not 100 percent, but I'm close."
As a result, Vonn said she doesn't expect much of a result today on a hill that has been notoriously unkind to the star. Vonn's best result in GS here was a fourth-place finish in 2008. In her last three trips, she was 12th, did not finish the first run and then failed to qualify for a second run.
"The snow looked perfect (during Friday's freeski). They did a great job preparing the hill. But to be honest with you, Aspen is not exactly my wheelhouse," Vonn said. "It's a very difficult hill for me. It's very tough physically and just doesn't feel good - you have to fight the entire way down. I'm not expecting to feel good tomorrow, but I'll definitely go out there and give it my best."

AGIdeas – Melbourne 2011
Category: Animation / Motion Graphics, Art, Design / Print, Events/Exhibitions, Illustration, Other Design Fields,
Posted: May 24th 2011
No. of comments: 0
Earlier this month Melbourne once again played host to a wide range of creative minds from diverse disciplines at AGIdeas. Held annually in (arguably) Australia's cultural capital, AGIdeas is an internationally-recognised creative forum that seeks to inspire and excite individuals through a series of talks, workshops and other networking events during the course of a jam-packed week of design goodness.
The calibre of speakers at this year's event was once again extremely high, with the likes of Per Mollerup, Nick Bell, Christopher Doyle, Erik Adigard, Fanette Mellier (a warning before you visit her site, if you're sensitive to bright colours!), Ken Miki and Sascha Lobe all gracing the stage in front of an eager-as-ever audience. A personal favourite speaker was Bruce Bigelow from Electric Art — as graphic designers one of our most valuable assets is the attention we devote to our craft, and I have to say that these guys take the cake when it comes to labouring over every minute detail… truly awe-inspiring.
One of the best things about AGIdeas is the fact that the speakers aren't all graphic designers. Sure, we love drooling over slide after slide of eye candy (though to give due credit to the speakers, their work runs far deeper than just good looks) but it is always really interesting to get an understanding of how other people, passionately wedded to their work — whatever it may be — approach their day-to-day. Cases in point would be the witty Oslo Davis, designer / artist / sculptor Matthew Harding, illustrator Dean Gorissen, architect Stefanie Flaubert and one of Melbourne's favourite foodie sons, Guy Grossi.
Don't worry if you missed this year's event — year after year AGIdeas manages to pull together an amazing array of presenters. It's probably worth adding a reminder to your calendar to check in here in about 10 months' time!

The Stray Cat in downtown St. James played host to artist Lisa Hagen and her 2013 debut art show The Hagen Effect, Saturday, Jan. 12. Hagen graduated from South Central Technical College in 1998, then began her career painting.
"Art is a great way to capture an emotion," said Hagen.
After a few short years painting professionally, Hagen got married. It was at that time Hagen took a break from painting professionally and became a full-time mother to her six children. She said she has been out of art so long many of her friends didn't even know she had ever painted. It has been more than ten years since Hagen last painted professionally.
Though she wasn't selling paintings, Hagen never put down the brush. She said painting is a great way to teach her children, and she uses it regularly while she home-schools her kids.
Hagen is hoping to get her name back out there and is looking to schedule more art shows at different venues. She finds motivation to paint in the things she sees everyday.
"I saw mermaids at the Renaissance Fair and they were so beautiful," said Hagen. "I had to capture it and put it on canvas to share with the world."
Hagen's art consists of some nature shots of birds, ships being tossed on heavy water, old John Deer tractors from her front lawn, mermaids and more.
If you're more a fan of International tractors, don't be anxious, Hagen reports she will be working on some red tractors very soon – to meet the requests she has already received.
Hagens mother said Lisa had always been artistic and they even had paintings she created at a younger age framed. Hagen's passion has helped her to continue moving forward in the art world.

You remember the movie - maybe you loved it, maybe you hated it, but you couldn't stop watching.
Now "Grease" is the word at Eagle Valley High School.
Set in the 1950s, "Grease" is really just a musical about the struggles and rebellions that most teenagers experience, but the new high school version isn't like the movie. EVHS drama director Cathy Strickler and music director Pat Sheehy are staging more of a G-rated version of the PG-13 classic.
"The kids have been asking about this show for years," Sheehy said. "When they came out with the newly edited high school version that was appropriate for all ages, we decided to do it."
The production required more choreography than musicals in the past, and EVHS dance team members Tania Molinar and Katie Andrews were more than happy to take on the task. Sheehy is excited about the musical talent this year, and encourages community members to come out and bring the whole family.
Who can resist the catchy, upbeat songs of the '50s that hearken back to the time when rock 'n roll was new and teens were beginning to create their own culture in America. Falling in love, summer nights, rebelling against parents - all hold allure, not just for teens but for everyone.
Characters in "Grease" are stereotypes of the cliques that have existed in high schools for six decades: the jock, the cheerleader, the nerd, the outcast and the spinster teacher. Today's EVHS students are better at transcending these roles, which makes it even more fun for the actors to explore. After all, how could a group of today's teens resist the chance to relive that astonishing and vibrant era?
Jessica Long, who plays the sarcastic Betty Rizzo, says the challenge of this year's production was a blast. "The most challenging part about 'Grease' has been trying to develop my character," said Long. She added that she surprised herself by stepping out as a mean, nasty character.
"It's been fun to find that side of my acting," said Long.
Rizzo's love interest is Kenickie, played by Steve Siefers, who says the best part about that is the car.
"I get to sing 'Greased Lightning,' one of the hallmarks of the movie and most certainly the play as well," he said.
Dancing has been challenging for Siefers and the rest of the cast, and he credits Molinar for hammering the moves into his memory. He is excited for the opportunity to play the classic smart aleck with attitude. "He's the wise guy unrestrained. I've had the ability to be whoever I want to be with Kenickie," said Siefers.
Danny is played by Will Dutmer. "Grease" has been the most challenging production yet for the EVHS musical veteran. Dutmer said the reason why is simple - the dancing and singing combinations. Being compared to John Travolta isn't easy, either.
"Danny is pretty full of himself, and it's strange to act like that, but it's also fun in a weird way," Dutmer said. "I can't wait for the audience to see the Thunderbirds perform 'Greased Lighting' with Steve (Siefers)."
Molinar plays the beautiful Sandy, and she agreed with her co-stars that this production has been a fun challenge. "I'm excited for the audience to see how funny some of the characters can be," she said.
Molinar said that people may think they know "Grease" but the EVHS production will bring some surprises. She noted the cast found that out as they prepared for the production. For instance, Molinar approached the musical thinking she was going to play a sweet and naïve Sandy. Then she realized the character was deeper than that. "Sandy has a mean streak. I'm so excited to perform and it is going to be a fantastic show!"

Colorschemers online tool makes colour palettes easy.
Category: Colour, Design / Interactive, Resources / Reference, Resources / Tools+Apps,
Posted: Sep 22nd 2011
No. of comments: 0
Colorschemedesigner is fantastic online tool that can speed up your colour palette creation. It allows you select various types of colour palettes based on the number of colours you'd like to use. The colour wheel interface is easy to use and has quick control selections such as complementary, mono etc.
It also has a randomize function that can through you some unexpected results that you may otherwise not select.
You can export the colour scheme created as HTML or rgb and even as a swatch palette for photoshop. It must be said that it focused more on creating palettes for online it can help a print designer locate palettes that work together (you'll just have to use check against your pantone bridge or process book for best print results).
Another great feature is its ability to preview the colours as colour blind person would see it even down to the particular type of colour blindness. Colour blindness apparently effects 1 in 10 men. So it really is something we should consider for wayfinding signage and environmental graphics where choosing the wrong colour could effect there ability to locate the emergency exit.

Hold on young lady! It must have been a thrilling ride for this brave model as the skipper put his Azimut 40 through an S-curve at over 30 knots. Note the trademark "tail fin" on the flying bridge.
Snapshot Review--
View of the flying bridge layout of the Azimut 40. Note the rounded bow instead of a sharp point. Her deck plan is symmetrical except for the portlights which have large windows to port and round ones to starboard.
The main deck features one level from the aft deck to the settee/dinette. The lower helm is to starboard and is on a raised platform.
The accommodations plan of the Azimut 40 features two en suite cabins and the galley down.
The Mission of the Azimut 40
The mission of the Azimut 40 is exactly the same as virtually every other boat in its line -- to provide a visually exciting, physically luxurious space for people to socialize. To that end, the yacht must have sleek, modern Italian styling, and elegance all wrapped up in a romantic ambiance. She should look fast and be fast.
The Azimut 40 has much of the same lines as we see on her far larger big sisters.
The Azimut 40 Platform
What are the most important social activities that human beings enjoy? We will concern ourselves here with just the first one -- eating and drinking. Even though the boat is only 40'2" (12.24 m) overall with a hull length of 37'11" (11.58 m) and a beam of 12'8" (3.86 m) she has as many places to eat and drink; essentially there are three.
Looking forward in the salon. The helm is at right and raised.
Looking aft in the salon. Note that the table is adjustable, moveable, but also bolted down with an easy-to-handle knob on the base.
The Salon/Dinette. It is not until we get into motoryachts that are 75' (22.8 m) or so that we consistently see separate dining areas apart from the salon. That means that even in many $2.5 million yachts the salon with a high-low table is used both as a cocktail table and a dining table. And that is what is employed on the Azimut 40.
Since the boat has two staterooms we will assume that there are only four people aboard for cruises. The L-shaped settee comfortably seats three people and with the addition of a single chair or stool four can sit and eat. For day-boat entertaining with the addition of three chairs or stools the table can seat six.
The aft deck is versatile and can be used for parties and dining. Note the steps at left which lead to the optional passerelle. Stairs to the swim platform are at right beyond the gate. Note the teak treads on the stairs to the flying bridge. The teak deck is standard.
Aft Deck Dining. When strolling along the quays in the Mediterranean where yachts tie up stern-to one is struck by how much Europeans enjoy having a long afternoon lunch or a late evening dinner on the aft deck of their motoryachts. It is here that the day's events are discussed while at the same time watching the parade of beautiful people coming and going, admiring the yachts and the people on them.
The aft deck of the Azimut 40 has been carefully designed to fulfill just that function. The bench seat along the transom is wide and comfortably seats three. A fold-away table is supplied which permits multi-use of the space. Some will use it only for cocktail parties and dining, others for watersports, and still others for casual fishing.
The bench seat is just over 6' (1.88 m) wide and there is 4'4" of fore and aft deck space (1.34 m) from it to the salon door. A 26" (.66 m) wide table and three director's chairs can fit onto the aft deck to seat six for a repast.
On the flying bridge looking aft. The helm seat is at the right. The bolster appears far bigger than it is due to the wide-angle lens. Note the fold-up table in the background.
The Flying Bridge Venue. The third table aboard the Azimut 40 is on the flying bridge. It is not a big table and that has been done on purpose. It is big enough for two people, but no more. That means it is appropriate for morning coffee for the owners, or perhaps evening cocktails. The settee on the bridge will seat four, but as the center of gravity on a boat of this size is an important consideration Azimut engineers have purposely limited the number of people that can be accommodated there.
The helm is rather typical of Azimut boats with low bulwarks which give the boat a sleek look and keep the air draft low in order to get under bridges in Europe.
The Sun God Amun-Ra
The ancient Egyptians worshiped the sun, calling the god Amun-Ra, and his followers survive to this very day. They like to lay out and receive his warm rays thereby tanning their skin and warming their bodies. Azimut is well aware of this cult and has provided appropriate votive alters around the boat called "sun pads." The most prominent one is on the flying bridge adjacent to the helm and it is large enough for two.
A second pad, also large enough for two is located on the sloping foredeck. The publicity pictures with this report notwithstanding, we do not recommend that the sunpad on the bow be used while underway.
The master stateroom in the bow has fairly large opening portlights. The cabin has two hanging lockers and what we think is pleasing decor.
One of the most outstanding features of the Azimut 40 is the fact that she has two en suite staterooms. This is almost unheard of in a 40' (12.12 m) boat and we bet it is a major reason for the model's popularity.
Master. The master stateroom is in the bow and it has the typical raised island double bed with storage underneath. The cabin has two decent-sized hanging lockers and private access to the head.
While this picture is distorted because of the wide-angle lens, note the large hull-side windows and the overhead. These two details -- and the en suite head -- make this cabin special.
VIP Stateroom. The guest stateroom is to starboard, has twin beds, and most importantly has it's own private head. We think Azimut designers have done a masterful job of getting headroom into what is usually a challenging area. The headroom has been accomplished by raising the height of the helm platform on the deck above, which serves double duty by improving the skipper's visibility.
Guests will have the delightful surprise of the two large portlights bringing sunlight into what might otherwise be a dark space. In fact, Azimut's signature huge hull-side windows are usually reserved for the master stateroom, but on the 40 the guests are the beneficiaries.
Two Heads Are Better Than One. Both heads have the tubular shower stalls that Azimut made famous decades ago and still uses to this day because of their remarkable space efficiency. We have long called this clever design the "beam-me-up-Scotty" shower because it so closely resembles the "transporter" in Star Trek's good ship Enterprise.
No Wet Head. By making two half-round Plexiglas sliding doors Azimut is able to provide needed deck space in the head when the shower is not in use, and at the same time create a separate shower stall. This eliminates the need for an ugly shower curtain and track on the overhead. Such a design would be a classic "wet head".
Remember Azimut is dedicated to elegance and gracious living in its yachts and the head compartments are an important part of making this relatively small yacht the classy venue that the company promotes. We have been cruising with friends on larger boats with two cabins and only one head and so can attest to the immense desirability of the two-head layout.
The galley is down, but because there is no overhead it is open and bright.
The Galley Is Down
By placing the galley down on the accommodations deck and eliminating an overhead Azimut has been able to provide both headroom and light. By keeping this space open and accessible to the main deck conversation between the skipper and chef is unimpeded.
The galley has a two burner stove top, a microwave oven, refrigerator/freezer and a sink. The boat comes standard with tasteful Azimut china, stemware and flatware for six as well as dedicated storage for it all.
Both the passerelle at left and the hydraulic swim platform are optional. Europeans like the telescoping gang plank because they usually moor stern-to at a quay.
Power and Performance
As noted above speed is one of the important "must haves" of any Azimut yacht. The boat displaces 29,000 lb./13,181 kgs. empty and 34,361 lbs./14,255 kgs. fully laden. Her beam at the widest point is 12'8" (3.86 m).
Her standard power is twin Cummins 355-hp QSB 5.9 diesels with V-drives. The down angle of the shafts is 10-degrees. The yacht has a 14-degree deadrise at the transom which is a fair compromise between speed and efficiency and riding comfort. Trim tabs come standard.
We have not tested this boat so can give no verified speed or fuel consumption numbers. The company states that the Azimut 40 has a top speed of 31 knots and a best cruise of 24 knots.
More S-curves in the south coast of France which is the most popular venue for Azimut yachts.
We think the important aspects of this boat are her styling, her two ensuite staterooms and the Azimut panache. For two-couple cruising we think the cabins are quite comfortable for this size boat and guests will like the private head with shower stall and the large windows in the cabin.
More likely this vessel will be used as a day boat for entertaining, sunning, and parties. With three venues -- salon, aft deck, and flying bridge -- there can be from 12 to 15 people aboard at one time. That is a lot for a 40' boat.
From a handling standpoint, the 40 can be fitted out with a bow thruster and Azimut's own proprietary joystick docking system to make maneuvering easy. In fact, twin-screw inboards are much easier to dock than many smaller boats.

The changing face of global commerce is rerouting flight plans. "Many companies are using large-cabin, long-range business jets to provide nonstop access to overseas markets, especially Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa," said Ed Bolen, the National Business Aviation Association's CEO.

Paella had its Western origin in Spain around the 10th century, when Moorish Muslims occupied much of the Iberian Peninsula and brought with them the cuisine of their native North Africa. There are probably as many paella recipes today as there are chefs who make the dish, according to Amina Halim, owner and founder of JetFinity, a San Francisco-based business aviation caterer.

The Bombardier Global 6000 will join NetJets Europe's fractional fleet on February 1, allowing for flights of 6,180 nautical miles.

""CEOs go to their vacation homes just after companies report favorable news, and CEOs return to headquarters right before subsequent news is released. More good news is released when CEOs are back at work, and CEOs appear not to leave headquarters at all if a firm has adverse news to disclose. When CEOs are away from the office, stock prices behave quietly with sharply lower volatility. Volatility increases immediately when CEOs return to work." —David Yermack, a New York University finance professor, whose recently released study shows a correlation between when CEOs take their private jets on vacation and movements in their companies' stock price "
