How the scam works:
(with video below) DEA stands for the United States' Drug Enforcement Administration. Callers phone homeowners and present themselves as DEA representatives.
They tell the victims that DEA has intercepted a large package addressed to them.
"We are sorry to inform you, but this package has your name on it, and you have the choice of paying $1,200 to forfeit the drugs or go to jail". When trying to fight back, the victims (usually older) are asked for evidence that they are NOT involved in this drug deal. "If you don't have any, the fact that your name and address is on the package could put you away for 12 years".

For some
parents, hearing that their child has autism or an autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
can be a time of sadness, grief, and, in some instances, relief. Caregivers are
likely to experience a gamut of emotions based on fear, anxiety, and lost
dreams for the future. At the same time, parents or caregivers may feel relief
in the knowledge that they are not "bad parents," that their children's
behavior is not a reflection of poor parenting, but instead a manifestation of
a developmental disability.1, 2
The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 1 in 110 children on
average are diagnosed with ASD in the United States. While the diagnosis of ASD
is on the rise, the CDC is not able to determine if this due to a broader
definition of ASD, better diagnostic tools, or an actual rise in the prevalence
of ASD. Instead, the CDC believes it is a combination of factors.3
ASDs are a
broad spectrum of symptoms that are most commonly diagnosed within the first
three years of life. The symptoms prevent the child from following normal
developmental patterns and include deficits in social skills, verbal and
nonverbal communication, along with repetitive behaviors and/or obsessive
These symptoms
coupled with an autism diagnosis can throw parents and caregivers into a
tailspin of uncertainty, confusion, and disbelief. Parents and families may
already be stressed due to their child's atypical and challenging behaviors,
adding a diagnosis of autism can make the situation more daunting. Although
there are a variety of pamphlets and educational brochures about autism,
parents may remain uncertain about how to cope.
of Diagnosis
Families of
children with ASD are likely to experience any number of negative emotions
related to their child's behaviors and subsequent diagnosis. Research has shown
that some of the major negative impact on family members and subsystems
However, the
negative emotions and psychological distress are different for each family
member. In addition, each family member has different root causes for their
psychological distress. Based on recent research, the below list offers some of
the main causes of distress for family members living with a loved one
diagnosed with ASD:9-14
Strategies and Hope
the stressors associated with diagnosis of ASD, studies have shown that
families also report positive outcomes. Moreover, positive coping strategies
can significantly improve the family and individual family members' quality of
life. Families have reported the positive effects of renewed family strength, resiliency,
and cohesiveness, along with personal maturation and a discovery of new life
directions. Furthermore, siblings often fare remarkably well, reporting
maturity beyond years, deepened empathy, and heightened self-esteem and
self-efficacy. Researchers have found that the following coping strategies
helped promote these positive outcomes in families and family members:15-22
closing, families and loved ones need to recognize the need for balance,
flexibility, and acceptance of life's gifts and challenges. Most importantly,
be kind to each other and your individual selves, accept what you cannot
change, and act upon what can be changed.

Hitting the same button over and over again - mollie1994
She slammed her fist down on the desk next to the keyboard, exclaiming; "This damn game!" She refresed the page with her hands hovering above the space bar. The page loaded up and her fingers leapt into action, frequently tapping the space bar.
Her young son watched from the corner of the room, slightly afraid of his mothers cussing and keyboard-bashing. His old teddy bear was slung over his shoulder and he clutched a little tighter as she cussed again. He sat down on the cold, hard floor, thinking of better times, where his mother would envelop him in hugs.

The Buffalo Bills welcomed back safety Da'Norris Searcy and defensive tackle and Marcell Dareus to the team on Tuesday after they both missed voluntary workouts last week, according to buffalobills.com.
Dareus explained he had some personal issues keeping him out of previous workouts. However, he didn't expound on why he wasn't in camp.
In two seasons since being a first-round draft pick out of Alabama, Dareus has become an anchor on the defensive line. Last season, Dareus had 39 tackles and 5.5 sacks after recording 43 stops and the same amount of sacks in his rookie campaign.
Searcy has recorded 73 tackles over two seasons and one interception.
Buffalo needs all hands on deck with a completely new regime in place. First-time head coach Doug Marrone has quite a job on his hands with a rookie quarterback in the starting mix in E.J. Manuel alongside journeymen Kevin Kolb and Tavaris Jackson.

Retail sites nearly ready for rental
The ongoing remodeling on the Ingles property just off Russ Avenue are making headway, with the expanded grocery section on track for opening at the end of the month.
Ingles manager Jeff Henderson said the outer shell of the retail areas on the south side of the property are almost complete. Interior walls won't be installed until the property is rented and it is known how much space each lessee requires, he added.
Other locations on the property that will eventually be available for lease will be tackled once the work is done on the retail locations nearest the grocery store are completed.

The Best Apple Pie You'll Ever Have
By Hannah from Honey and Jam
Apple pie is the best sort of pie. It's homey, familiar and always delicious. This recipe is my absolute favorite. It takes a little more time than your average recipe, but it's worth it, I assure you!
The best part of this pie is the apple cider caramel. Caramel-making sounds a little fussy, but it's actually as easy as standing over a pot for a few minutes. It adds such a depth of flavor and intensifies the apple taste. You'll want to save the left over caramel for pancakes or ice cream!
Tip: Let this cool completely before cutting. I always want to dive right in, but you have to let it set, otherwise you'll have a watery mess. Enjoy!
Cider Caramel Apple Pie
For the cider caramel:
4 cups apple cider
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter
For the pie:
5-6 cups sliced apple (gala or granny smith are best)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup cider caramel, warmed
1 large egg, beaten
For the crust:
(recipe from Martha Stewart)
& Marsha's Aunt Sis who used ice water ONLY)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 sticks unsalted butter, cold, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup ice water, plus more if needed
To make the crust:
In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour and salt; pulse to combine. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some larger pieces remaining, about 10 seconds. (To mix by hand, combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then cut in butter with a pastry blender.)
With machine running, add ice water through feed tube in a slow, steady stream, just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky. Do not process more than 30 seconds. Test by squeezing a small amount of dough together; if it is still too crumbly, add a bit more water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Turn out dough onto a clean work surface. Divide in half, and place each half on a piece of plastic wrap. Shape into flattened disks. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
To make the caramel:
Pour cider into heavy bottomed pot. Boil cider until reduced to 2 cups, about 20 minutes. Add butter & sugar, cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly and is reduced to 1 1/4 cups. Can be made 2 days ahead, transfer to bowl and keep refrigerated.
To make the pie:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Let pie dough rest on counter for 15 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into two 1/8 inch thick rounds. Press one round into lightly greased pie plate.
In a large bowl, combine apples, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, salt, vanilla, and caramel. Mix well. Spoon apples into pie plate. Cover with remaining crust. Cut 4 steam vents into top. Brush with beaten egg, and sprinkle with sugar & cinnamon.
Bake until crust is brown and juices are bubbling, about 1 hour. Let cool before serving.

The point when science becomes publicity
Geege Schuman stashed this in Health Studies
Stashed in: #health, Science!, Marketing!, BuzzFeed!, Viral Content
Press releases are to blame for sensationalism in claims:
One of the sources of academic disdain for popular health media is its reputation for sensationalism and exaggeration. "If You've Ever Eaten Pizza, You'll Want to Read About the Toxin That Is Pretty Certainly Ravaging Us From the Bowels Outward" or "This Common Household Item Is Definitely Killing You, Says a New Study"—when the actual study only posited that a "possible association may potentially exist" between, say, exposure to antibacterial soap and liver disease in a handful of mice who were exposed to more antibacterial soap than any human could ever dream of using, even if they washed their hands literally every time they went to the bathroom.
Petroc Sumner, a professor of psychology at Cardiff University in Wales, has been trying to pinpoint exactly where exaggeration in science reporting comes from. At what level, in the ladder from lab data to news headline, are most inaccuracies introduced?
Yesterday Sumner and colleagues published some important research in the journal BMJ that found that a majority of exaggeration in health stories was traced not to the news outlet, but to the press release—the statement issued by the university's publicity department.

Dolph Lundgren will be hosting this reality tv show in which contestants compete in challenges inspired by memorable movie moments. Ever wanted to see Ivan Drago in drag? The show is produced by Reelz and premiers in June.
Iron Arnold did an interview with someone who is apparently involved with the film. There is some interesting information here, he mentions a Tango And Cash vibe between Stallone and Arnold, and also states that there is a scene involving Arnold with a "Rambo-esque 50 caliber gun" reminiscent of the minigun scene from Terminator 2. On the other hand he also says "This is not really a fighting/action movie but more of a thriller so don't expect a lot of action." I guess we'll have to wait and see.

There's a funny detail on the cover, they've photoshopped the skull design from the 2004 Punisher movie onto his jacket although no skull logo of any kind appears in this movie!

It's also great for getting babys off to sleep, and for making out you're being really helpful to you other half by taking the baby out for a run

Genre: Drama, Action, History, Thriller
Chris Pine
Ben Foster
Casey Affleck
Craig Gillespie
Duration: 114 min
Quality: HD []
Release: Jan 27, 2016
IMDb: 5.1
Inspired by true events and based off, the 2009 book of the same name, by Michael J. Tougias & Casey Sherman. This movie directed by Craig Gillespie tells the story how a small boat of U.
S. Coast Guardsmen pulled off the most daring rescue in their service's history. Set in Massachusetts in 1952, the film follows the men daring enough to rescue the 30+ man crew trapped aboard the sinking SS Pendleton, an oil tanker bound for Boston that was ripped in half during one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast. Without spoiling the movie, too much, I have to say, since the movie is based on real-life events. There is little to look forward to. The movie is just too predictable and full of old fashioned clichés. Despite that, it's still, somewhat worth checking out. The acting in the film was pretty good for the most part. In spite of some of the supporting characters being very unlikeable due to cowardly or stupidity. At least, the main character, wasn't that bad. Yes, he's a dull milk-toast kind of a guy, but I kinda like Chris Pine as Coast Guard Captain Bernie Webber. It's nice to see him, played a character, with a strong sense of justice, morality, and righteousness, while also being very obedience and rigid to the rules of his command. It's so different from his normal roles of playing captains that were also brave, but somewhat selfish and brash with their action. By far, he's the best character, in this film. However, I really wasn't very invested in the relationship, his character had with Miriam Pentinen (Holliday Grainger). Holliday Grainger is a fine actress, but I found her character to be a little too dependent to care about. She's so selfish. Miriam repeated, forceful demands that the rescue effort be called off to keep Bernie out of danger was really bad! I really didn't like her. Honestly, what did she think was going to happen, if she was going to marry a Coast Guard!? I'm glad, she got kicked out of the Coast Guard station over it. If that wasn't enough; she stupidly hits a snowbank and had to be bailed out by a housewife whom husband is trapped on the Pendleton. I get that it was supposed to be character development for her, but it came across as too annoying and all-time waster. Those scenes were really too distracting from the gripping main plot of the rescue mission. Anyways, the real Miriam was just in home in bed with the flu. Not only that, but she was already marry to Bernie a year and a half prior to the Pendleton rescue, so she knew that she was getting herself into. By the way, in real-life, Bernie met his wife, Miriam over the telephone, not in a blind date, if you wondering. Another thing, that wasn't true to real events is how Ray Sybert (Casey Affleck), the first assistant engineer and now de facto leader of the Pendelton crew, wanted to run the SS Pendleton aground. In truth, this decision would be, very stupid, because the ship would had broken up faster in the relentless surf. Anybody who is a Chief Engineer would have at least, known that. In real-life, Chief Engineer Ray Sybert actually decided to keep the Pendleton's stern as far offshore as possible, fearing that the ship might sink faster, if he did. Another thing, that Sybert didn't do, is cut the lifeboats as most of the crew, knew, already that the idea of escaping the ship by boat would be nuts, because how the monstrous waves were acting. If they did try to escape the ship by lifeboat. They would likely had been crush against the hull for sure. That's the reason, why none of the boats were ever launched. As much as I kinda like the Pendleton crew in the movie. I found most of the characters on the ship to be one-dimension. First off, you got the doubter, D.A Brown (Michael Raymond-James) who has nothing else to say, besides fighting with everybody. The old man of the ship, Frank Fauteux (Graham McTavish) who should be leading the crew, but isn't. Then there is the over-the-top jolly big fella, George 'Tiny' Myers (Abraham Benrubi) who should be scare, but isn't for some odd reason. Then you got the young greenhorn, Elvin Maske (John Magaro). Every one of them is clichés. Even Casey Affleck as Ray Sybert was kinda average. I'm sorry, I know he's a great actor, but he's so typecast, here. Honestly, it seems like Casey Affleck, only played characters that are shy, reticent people! It's a bit tiresome. He always talks like he has marbles in his mouth. Way too depressing. I also hate, how cool and collected, everybody is, despite the fact that there is two ships that are sinking. Everybody takes their time to get to the ships. There is little to no stakes. The action scenes in this movie is not that exciting. The movie didn't even, bother, showing the other ship that broke in half. Where was scenes of the coast guard, rescuing the SS Fort Mercer? The rescue of the SS Fort Mercer survivors was just as incredible as the SS Pendleton. I don't get why, they didn't show it. Anyways, the 3D isn't worth it. It's way too dark, blurry and rainy to tell, what's happening on screen. Also, the CGI storm, looks a little too fake looking for my taste. I really didn't like the ending with all the fake-looking car lights. It was too unrealistic. Overall: While the movie does a good job in capturing a sense of the post-WWII era with the sets and costume & the fact that the music by composer Carter Burwell was good. This old timey tale of heroism sunk for the most part. I can only recommended this as a one time watch. It's alright, but not good.

Read this: Just in case you are you doing your own carpet cleaning?
Most carpets are stain-resistant, meaning that the manufacturer has treated them to reduce staining. However, no carpet is stain-proof. Over time, the carpet's fibers trap dirt, oils and bacteria, which can discolor the material and cause unpleasant odors and stains. Use a few tips, tricks and secrets to steam clean your carpets, as needed, and then keep them cleaner longer with some simple suggestions for the whole family.

Union minister of state for women and child development Krishna Tirath has regretted that despite significant strides made by women in entrepreneurship, science and arts, majority of women in the country remain marginalised at home and workplace.
Tirath was speaking at the foundation stone-laying ceremony at regional centre of National Institute of Public Cooperation and Child Development (NIPCCD) in Sector 79, SAS Nagar on Friday.
The minister said it was unfortunate that most of the women were unaware of the government schemes and programmes that could raise their status.
After operationalisation of the SAS Nagar regional centre, the fifth in row after Guwahati, Bangalore, Lucknow and Indore, NIPCCD would be able to expand its coverage in the northern region and help local
women to bring them at par with their male counterparts, she added.
The programmes of NIPCCD are targeted at enhancing knowledge and skills of trainers and field functionaries dealing with women at grassroot level.
Surjit Kumar Jyani, Punjab minister for social security, who was also present on the occasion, lauded the efforts of the central government in promoting the cause of women and child welfare. He informed the audience that 26,000 anganwadi centres were functioning successfully in 154 blocks of Punjab.

Travel Blogs from Mykonos
Fast Jet Boat that took so long
Our last day on Santorini and we awoke to another glorious day so it was hard to leave. After another delicious breakfast served to us by our gracious hosts we thought we'd better have one last walk to take in the views and walk off a little of our breakfast. Impossible to walk it all off. It was tortilla and some kind of pastry as well as grapes and cheese accompanied by the freshly squeezed orange juice and black brewed coffee. We had to be out of our room by ...

Like most restaurants, this one also had a cat, so a little bit of the meat from my hamburger accidentally fell on to the floor once or twice. Maybe three times.
We wandered the (very narrow) shopping streets of Mykonos - I think some of these would have been too ...

To give yourself that feeling of feasting on spiritual food through inspiring music, scripture study, connecting with family and just really connecting with one's Maker in a very sincere way.

It reminds a person that connecting with Him on such a deep level doesn't ...
Move over Mykonos!
... The cod was next level amazing - British-Greek fusion fish. It was huge, fresh and exactly what we felt like. The pasta salad was also good but at a level to which we could make ourselves - just a plain penn� with nice balsamic and feta dressing. We washed that down with a litre of rose, as you do.
The rest of the day was pretty low key and ended up being a pretty relaxing afternoon doing not much. Jason walked back into town later to grab something ...

4. The Prophecy and the Stowaway (part 4)
"Oh, and there's one more thing," Hataru said slowly; she had nothing important to speak of but wanting to break the silence anyway. Whatever it was about this Kosu character, it was obvious that Levi didn't want to talk about it. "I think ─ ooh..." She had started to stand up, but her grogginess had not completely worn off. Steadying herself, she began again, " I think ─ oh!" A fluttering slip of paper fell from her gown to the wooden floor, and she bent down to pick it up. "Hold on, it says something." Squinting her eyes to decipher the delicate penmanship, she read aloud:
"The Sharpest blade of darkest day,
Melodic notes to be played,
A parent's tale writt'n by hand,
Needles that brush her silky strands,
Along with the pristine, red life of the pure,
Will join at dawn for evil's endure!"
"What do you think that could mean, Captain?" she asked quizzically.
Smiling, the scent of adventure flowing by on a light breeze that carried his misery away, the captain began to give orders. "Well! It sounds as if we have a fresh mystery on our hands! Firious, prepare the ship. Have someone check our stock of supply and estimate how long it will last us. Make sure all of our escape boats are in top shape, we may need them. What else... ah, well, you know what to do. I sense a long journey ahead of us." Grumbling like always, but with a faint smile of relief across his face, the first mate left the room. "Don't mind old Firious," Levi told Hataru, "he really is a good man ─ just a grumpy one. Why don't we let him handle the preparations, while we try to figure this out?"

Loved meeting the two extremely talented, philanthropic guys (Mat and Fleet) who started the Dog Lover's Wine Club which has been gaining new members and fans in the New Orleans area for their lovely wines and for generously sharing the proceeds with the L.S.P.C.A. Had the distinct pleasure of pouring for them at their first Canine Culture event and found the wines as well as the attendees-- including our 4-legged friends-- most pleasant and approachable! So much so that Tim and I ordered a case of our favorite of the group offered, the Pinot Noir, with our little lion-headed poodle featured on the label.
So now we have a case of Pookie Pinot Noir (or almost a case, it was a Christmas gift for several very special people) which we can use throughout the year for special events (like celebrating Pookie's birthday!), special gifts, etc. I don't think I'll be able to throw away the bottles afterwards through because Mat's artistic rendering of Pookie -- done from a photo by one of our wonderful dog sitters -- makes the bottles, even without wine, impossibe for us to dispense with! To the rescue..... our friends Lynda and Bobby gifted us with the wicks/candle/glass enclosures to continue using the empties to add a flicker of light to any wine tasting or other occasion.....

RIHANNA, Sir Paul McCartney and Kanye West, Sam Smith and Mary J Blige, Ed Sheeran, John Mayer, Herbie Hancock and Questlove, and Jessie J and Sir Tom Jones were among the groups of performers at the Grammy Awards last Sunday.
The annual musical awards ceremony showcased a number of collaborations, with the 'Diamonds' hitmaker's performance with the Beatles Legend and the rapper on their track 'FourFiveSeconds' prompting a singalong at Los Angeles' Staples Centre, with all the audience on their feet throughout the song.
Sam and Mary's rendition of his Grammy-winning single 'Stay With Me' was widely regarded as one of the stand-out performances of the night, with their stripped-back vocals complemented by an orchestra.
Ed was joined by a trio of guests on his track 'Thinking Out Loud' and the British singer later joined ELO, who had already performed 'Evil Woman', on vocals for their classic track 'Mr. Blue Sky'.
Jessie and Tom – who previously worked together on UK TV show 'The Voice' – teamed up on 'You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin', a tribute to songwriters Barry Mann & Cyntheia Weil, who received the Trustees Award, while US 'The Voice coaches Adam Levine and Gwen Stefani also teamed up, singing Maroon 5 track 'My Heart Is Open'.
Elsewhere, Usher was joined on stage by Stevie Wonder, who played harmonica as the 'OMG' hitmaker sang the legendary star's track 'If It's Magic', and the evening's double Grammy winner, Beck, was backed by Chris Martin on guitar as he performed 'Heart is a Drum'.
Katy Perry gave an emotional performance of 'By the Grace of God' following a video message from President Obama and a speech from a domestic violence survivor to raise awareness of ItsOnUs.org.
Sia's performance was introduced by actor Shia LaBeouf reading out a love letter, and she was joined on stage by 'Bridesmaids' star Kristen Wiig, who danced impressively to 'Chandelier'.
Other solo performers at the ceremony included Beyonce, Madonna, Ariana Grande and Miranda Lambert.
AC/DC opened the show with 'Rock or Bust' and 'Highway To Hell' and the close of the evening was marked by John Legend and Common singing 'Glory', which is taken from the movie 'Selma'. – BANG!

Chris Longmuir ask, 'What are you reading?'
I'm asking because I'm currently reading a traditionally published, well known, best selling author, and it struck me that this book was no better than many of the independantly published books, otherwise known as indies, and looked down on by publishers and many traditionally published authors as self-published.
The reason I am saying this is because I've recently published my non fiction book, Crime Fiction and the Indie Contribution, for which I conducted intensive research into all things indie, including the reading of 61 indie novels by writers, some of whom I knew by reputation, but the majority of whom I did not know at all. In fact the majority of these indie writers might not even suspect I've included them in this book. But the ones who have discovered themselves between the pages have been highly delighted.
Most of the crime novels I read were good, some very good, and some were excellent. Admittedly, I came across a few which, shall we say, were less than perfect (I'm being polite). The ones that did not meet the grade, I scrapped, and they were not included in the finished book.
I cannot quote all the authors who wrote books I thought were excellent, but I did come across a lot of characters that will remain in my mind. Nanci Rathbun's Angelina Bonaparte was one. I really liked Angelina who was a most unusual sleuth. Then there was the homeopath Erica Bruce, in the Valerie Laws' thrillers. Jessica Blackwood, the ex-magician FBI agent, written by Andrew Mayne, and, of course, Jack Daniels in the J A Konrath series. I wish I could quote all the books I liked, but there were far too many. And most of them excellently written. These books would give any traditionally published authors a run for their money.
So, if you haven't yet tried one of the fantastic selection of indie books, then I suggest you give them a go. If you're careful in what you choose you won't be sorry. And to start you off on where to find good indie books look no further than the Famous Five Plus website's book page or the Awsome Indies web site, all the books on this site are vetted before inclusion, so you won't find anything that lacks quality here.
Now, I must get back to the book I'm reading. I can't wait to finish it so I can get back to my favourite indie authors.
Chris Longmuir

- 224pp
- Illustrated in colour throughout
- First published 2015
Thames & Hudson's new 'Making Sense of...' series will equip everyone with the knowledge to interpret religious paintings, buildings and artefacts in terms of their iconography and symbolism. By tracing the paths between belief and artistic intention, this series will deepen the reader's understanding not only of art and architecture, but also of the world's great religions.
Each book features 100 clearly illustrated and diverse historical works, from paintings, buildings and sculptures to manuscripts, mandalas and more. The books' layouts are visually striking: each double-page spread features a full-page colour photograph of either a detail of the work or its context, with a second photograph chosen to illustrate its important aspects. Alongside, an expert gives a clear and succinct exposition on its significance in that particular religion's art history and philosophy, together with key facts, including where it may be seen today.

Installing proprietary drivers were very much the thing not the thing to do (compared to user space proprietary applications) sometime back. This is somewhat a risky move that might yield short term advantages but the long term implications of a mainstream distribution doing something like this and messages that is convey is not so positive.
I think this makes it even more important for Fedora to stick with the principles and put more focus into Free software than ever but there are good conversations going on in the Fedora summit solving some of the problems like mp3 codecs in a legal way without compromising on that.

Critics of the controversial event marking the handover of the Olympics from Beijing to London have slammed organisers for employing a producer with a track record of unconventional stunts.
The much-derided showcase, which featured a red double-decker bus driving through Beijing's Bird's Nest Stadium before transforming into a giant hedge from which David Beckham kicked a football into the crowd, was masterminded by controversial producer Stephen Powell.
Mr Powell is no stranger to criticism, having previously created events featuring a rock-and-roll Jesus, a flotilla of weather balloons carrying pallets of sugar and a spontaneous opera in a busy London railway station.
Tacky: David Beckham kicks a ball into the Beijing crowd
The idea of his Beijing handover production was to give spectators around the world a sense of what they could expect from the London 2012 Olympics.
But the eight-minute event, which cost £2.5million, was widely criticised as 'tacky' and 'embarrassing', and MPs said it raised questions about the organisation of the 2012 games in London.
Mike Hancock, Liberal Democrat MP for Portsmouth South, said: 'It was completely naff. Alan Titchmarsh probably designed the part of it when the bus turned into a hedge.
'All it needed was a Charlie Dimmock water feature. If we can't do better than that, it leaves a lot to be desired. It did nothing to instill any confidence for 2012.'
Actor Darren Morfitt as Jesus in the Manchester Passion
Hugh Robertson, the Tory spokesman for Sport and the Olympics, said that the event was not as embarrassing as the inflatable kangaroos paraded around the 1996 Atlanta Olympics by the Australians, but it had 'failed to inspire confidence'.
But Mr Powell's involvement was defended by the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games, which hired him for the project last November. A spokeswoman said he had been chosen 'for his ideas and for his track record'.
His most controversial project was the Manchester Passion, a contemporary version of Christ's last days, accompanied by rock music.
The live passion play was staged in Manchester city centre on Good Friday 2006, using music by Morrissey, The Happy Mondays and The Stone Roses.
Stephen Powell (circled) watches the ceremony with Boris Johnson and Lord Coe
It starred Keith Allen as Pontius Pilate and notorious dancer Bez, among others.
The production centred around the 'JC Gang', a contemporary version of the disciples, and featured Jesus wearing an orange jumpsuit singing Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division before being crucified on a giant neon cross.
At one point Jesus and Pontius Pilate also duetted on Oasis's Wonderwall.
It was broadcast live on BBC3 and caused dismay among some Christian groups, with Stephen Green of Christian Voice saying: 'This production may not be blasphemous, but it is certainly not very respectful.'
Powell also masterminded the unusual launch event for Liverpool's year as European Capital Of Culture.
It was held outside the city's St George's Hall in November 2006 and involved dozens of meteorological balloons, weighed down by pallets stacked with bags of Tate & Lyle sugar. An image of a cup of tea slowly filling with sugar was projected on to the balloons.
Among Powell's other credits are Flashmob The Opera – a production staged at Paddington Station in 2004.
Members of the public were sent a text message inviting them to descend on the station, where they performed a contemporary version of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice alongside professional opera singers. It was shown on BBC3 and won an international Rose d'Or prize.
A sequel was made the following year in Sheffield's Meadowhall shopping centre.
Mr Powell was also behind a 2007 project called Velomania that was described as
'an exploration of our emotional, physical, intellectual and social relationship to
the bicycle'.
Mr Powell's Olympic duties will end on September 17, after the closing ceremony of the Paralympic Games.
A spokesman for the London Olympics organising committee said: 'Our performance was extremely well received in the stadium and generally very well received at home.
'We wanted the show to be eight minutes of fun and enjoyment and we believe this is what we provided.'
Seven million television viewers in Britain tuned in to the ceremony, but an estimated 3,000 subsequently expressed their disappointment on the BBC News website. Around 200 comments were censored for being obscene.

when trying to think big and ahead, making decisions for the now, while accepting your fears and hoping for your dreams. it seems like an appropriate action finding your box strap, and taking it out for a short one.
still remembering how to wrap. found, though, only one hand.

first time in my so far lifetime i got interested in light art.

it's been a great deal of silence. not because i've been on a tour around the world without online facilities, or any other fancy stuff. but still, i've been trying to catch a breath, get things sorted out, settle down and fit in. all of those cliché things that we all do or should do from time to time. after a long time having my hands full, i start to breathe again. i look into the mirror, and i say it could have been worse. a lot. still i have things to fix, but those (physical) wounds will heal and pain will disappear with time. the carrousel spins seem to slow down. and even if i am keen on speediness, i let other sources to provide my daily boost. i am a thankful and resourceful woman. i am aware how cheesy this might sound, but in the end there's sunshine. #proofingthat #lifeasitfeels #backinthegame

Over at Bunkerlove's FB site some great portraits are posted – taken of the artists and works of the Bunkerlove festival.
Look over here for Chris Brock Photography – a very nice man attached to his camera.

Only in a few days the piece Tilted will be presented at the Bunkerlove 2013 festival, in Furreby, DK.
Working on the final touches and hoping for good weather – full of excitements and also very much looking forward to experience the pieces of the co-exhibiting artist fellows.
More information on the work Tilted here.

As I consider this a milestone both in my professional and private life I dedicate a separate post to this happening… Namely the news that I have been applying to a Master programme in Interaction Design at the Kolding School of Design, and today I am one lucky one to announce that I am registered as one of their new master students for the programme from September 2013.
Life is spiced up – both practical and private matters are on the table right now. Very exciting time, and also sad, as husband and wife geographical situation is going to be just as much spiced up as my excitements at the moment.
I have been considering a Master for a long time, though it was a long journey of balancing things and looking for a match that I would throw myself into. So this is happening now – I am throwing myself into it.
It has been a while since the last post here on the blog, but life is busy, which I am insanely grateful for (and from time to time I am just dreaming of a place to get away and take a deep breath). I had a very eventful spring and summer continues just like it.
Do not even know where to start the sum-up…so I just spit them out and will be back more detailed on some projects in separate posts.
During April-May I decided to take advantage of some given possibilities and took a course in DTP and Google SketchUp and got boosted my Adobe and 3D skills a little. These will come very handy during visualizing ideas, concept development, PR stuff and prototyping. I have been missing a good 3D base, when working on some previous ideas – and SketchUp offers a lot for free as a good kickstarter. It has been a while ago when I was drawing in Rhino, and even if I prefer, I have something in my pocket that does not require a payed license. Would of course wish for .dwg support though.
Also InsideOut vol. II had a revive at Transformator, the small experimental scene at Aalborg Teater in the beginning of May. Was wishing for a long time to display the piece in a black box, and by making it reality I got inspired and stored notes for new improvements / re-design for such a setting.
Farm and Farm-related workshops were also in play during spring, documentation of the Farm workshop at the main library in Aalborg is to be found here.
Besides the above mentioned I have been preparing and participating in a larger scale interdisciplinary project focusing on establishment and experimentation of new types of learning environments for children and young teenagers. More on this project here. I have been very glad to take part in this long-term and very exciting project, which I have both gained a wide range of experience and knowledge from. And once again I made the (re)discovery that children are some insanely mind-blowing little creatures!
The last couple of weeks and days I have been working on a new piece – which I have been commissioned for by the festival running under the name Bunkerlove.
The festival is taking place during three Sundays in July at the westcoast beaches of the northern part of Denmark. About the festival:
"BunkerLove is an annual art festival based on a long-term strategy of creating a physical and virtual cultural transformation of Hitler's Atlantic Wall WWII bunkers. Around 14000 bunkers dot an extensive system of coastal fortifications from France to Norway, forming a bleak reminder of a dark episode in European history. BunkerLove aim to breathe new life into the bunkers with cultural happenings which both commemorate lives lost and ponder past mistakes as well as look to the future positively."
Very exciting process that I found myself in – experimentations and new territories were part of the process, filled with both thrilling and disturbing moments as going ahead :)
I am very excited about the outcome of the exhibition on this Sunday – fingers crossed for a dry and sunny weather by the beach.
Documentation follows continuously.
Tomorrow I will be presenting a new ongoing project FARM – Soft Circuitry and Sound at the Pecha Kucha Night Aalborg #9.
Also I and the other project half, Christian Skjødt, will be facilitating a two days workshop under the same title at Platform4 – 19-20th of October. Info is found here.
Details and continous documentation is to be found here.
This project has been the topic of my talks and dreams for long enough time now – so it is a great feeling to have some stuff done and get going with the design process. Right now the project is in the prototyping phase and slowly moving towards a possible final design. We are very excited about it – as the project has a long list of potentials and we are very eager to find the best combination of these.
In the meantime I am also working on a few (bigger and smaller) side projects – more on these coming soon :)
Btw, it is now a fact that I am out in the free world – not a student anymore. Just graduated as BA in Art and Technology a few months ago.
Although this is somewhat a confusing situation, as I am (together with Sandro Masai and the project TimeLife) having a re-exam soon again. Long story told short – educational systems are not always functioning that smooth and justly… Between two chairs – next time I want a sofa… Thanks.
Apparently a lot is happening Pecha Kucha-wise.. In the fall I have been invited to talk about the project Farm in Mygdalhus outside Aalborg, and now I am invited to talk about it again in Kolding this Thursday. So I am taking a trip to the home of Kolding School of Design, where I am lucky to get a guided tour in connection with my Pecha Kucha stay. I am looking forward to spread the word about the joy of the small textile creations making loud noise.
The project talk and presentation slides made it to the international Pecha Kucha site – here is the whole package available. We are happy about this great interest, and hope that the story continues in forms of workshops and creative crafting.
Unfortunately the project has been on pause for a little while now – other things needed to get more in focus. Though we are continuously making new ideas about developments and also trying to raise some money for the project.
So a little announcement… we are going to hold a workshop on Farm for small children in the main library of Aalborg, in May. It is not a question that it will be great to get back to businness and keep the workshopping a little warm.
In October last year we had two fantastic action-packed days at Platform4, where we facilitated the pilot workshop for the project. Documentation is to be found here and more is coming soon.
Due to a last minute invitation my biofeedback piece InsideOut vol. II is exhibited in Dronninglund Kunstcenter until the 16th December.
Here a quick iPhone snapshot from the vernissage – proper documentation comes soon over on StoriesOnWhite.net.Photo by: the co-operator Christian Skjødt
In the meantime I am working on some idea sketches for the ultimate re-design of the piece – so InsideOut vol. III is in progress… :)
Great news that InsideOut will be displayed soon again – on the local experimental theatre scene Transformator. On that I will post a fresh one.
Here are some pictures of the Dronninglund exhibition – it went smoothly with the display over a whole month. I will do a few adjustments for next time, and also I am not giving up raising some money for a larger setup for the piece. I am playing with the ideas of a whole large-scale multisensory room involving tactile speakers, fabric architecture and thermochromic inks… So if interested to collaborate, please do not hesitate to let me know. I am open to experiments in several directions, as bio-feedback, interactivity and smart materials are still not boring for me (not at all!). I still wish to keep the sonic aspect, as it is just something that talks to me nearly under my skin. So tactility I wish to explore and investigate in several ways.
So here is some small animation – probably a best way of illustrating the dynamics of the pulsing atmosphere:

It is now a while ago that this graduation project was displayed, though I was still missing to pull the threads together and make this post.
Over here we have been posting about the progress, though I felt like that it also needed some space over here on Stories On White. Below is a small video documentation of the exhibited interactive installation, which is pretty much in a theatrical setup situation. This video does not represent fully the unfolding of the interactive 'game', but it attempts to give an expression of the overall situation and experience. Several shoots are o be found here.
Time / Life documentation from TIME/LIFE Project on Vimeo.
The project is now packed up and stored, as we really wish to pull it out again and make some new tests and improvements. Also it could be great to expose audience to it again, as it feels a little wrong just to have it displayed for a couple of hours (limitations of the study) and showing it to people from the field (study mates and teachers). What would happen if this interactive room was available to people, big and small, from all kinds of background who would explore it from a different point of view and without any preconceptions on the applied technologies and the hidden meanings of the work..?
Until then we have our knowledge from this time – providing us new ideas for future works.
Just a very quick check in to tell about tonight's Dj-ing at Cafe and Gallery Enten Eller..
The Hungarian artist Uglár Csaba is visiting with a solo exhibition for a few weeks.
I do not guarantee Hungarian tunes, but some variety of spontaneous moods :)
As not being a student and not having the workspace facilities of the student anymore… after a couple of months of isolation in the same small room of home used for both morning coffee activities, home diy projects, drying wet clothes, home office and StoriesOnWhite project generation and prototyping activities, and generally the being home 24-7 idea, I felt the need of getting out of the walls. So it happened that I joined a creative workspace community and established a tiny studio, that looks like this:
Not a giant space to build large-scale installations, but it has at least a different address form the other thing called home. And that's a great difference. Also the sunny window, it is.
Now I just have to remember also to enjoy the morning coffee activities, home diy projects and hanging up the wet clothes.. at home. Not quite a workaholic, but with a tendency to develop that kind. From time to time.
But uheey and butterflies of the new excitements.
After some time the corner got busy and messy… which I like a lot :)

St. Pete's Baywalk Gets New Owner–and Brighter Future?
- Oct 01, 2011
Rumors about the high asking price for the onetime crown jewel of downtown St. Petersburg—the BayWalk complex—have come to an end, as developer Bill Edwards has officially become its new owner. CWCapital Asset Management put the property on the block for $8 million back in March, with Colliers International Tampa Bay in charge of marketing the property. According to the Florida Real Estate Journal, Colliers worked closely with the seller to evaluate 20 offers from around the country, also turning down local Joel Cantor, the brash developer of Signature Place, the 36-story condo tower in downtown St. Petersburg; Cantor's offer was in the $2.5 million to $5 million range.
While Cantor considered the asking price to be exaggerated, it is but a mere fraction of the $20 million city taxpayers poured into the complex, topped by the $14 million invested by the former owner. The $8 million price was $300,000 less than the amount the city had to invest just to assemble the land before passing it on to the developers.
The 74,500-square-foot Baywalk shopping-and-entertainment complex opened in 2000 and at one time housed as many as 40 businesses; today, only six businesses, including a movie theater, remain open. The retail-and-restaurant complex and the movie theater were built by Sempler Co., while the city built the parking garage.
One block away from the agitated Beach Drive, BayWalk is within close proximity to numerous arts attractions, such as the Chihuly Collection, the Museum of Fine Arts and the new Dali Museum.
The amount for which the BayWalk traded for has not been disclosed, but buyer Bill Edwards did release plans to rename the complex as he strives to bring it back to its 2000 glory.

We all know when Aunt Flo is coming around - the tell-tale cramps, your skin starts breaking out, you suddenly bloat up to two times your regular size. Oh, and you want to eat everything in sight.
All these years you suffered through the "time of the month" alone in silence, maybe with the help of a few painkillers and boxes of Kit Kats - but no more!
A hashtag where women can connect and commiserate over their period woes online has been created, and it might just be one of the most important public forums for women this year. Search the hashtag #LiveTweetYourPeriod and the stories start pouring in. You'll be simultaneously laughing at the hilarious tweets and nodding your head in agreement.
The tweets themselves will make you smile (or cry, depending on if you've started your period), but the most important thing is that women are really talking about their bodies and the way they really work without any of the hyper-sexuality!
We're absolutely loving it. Check out some of our favorite tweets below.
