" Address: Bierozka / Hołota Mariola / Krzyże 7 / 17-230 Białowieża "
I usually end up in the dog house when choosing places to stay online, it seems that I always pay over the top for something rather basic. I have now learnt that a recipe for peace and quiet is to choose the place and let my wife book the accommodation. Bierozka wasn't our first choice but we went to Bialowieza on a public holiday and a lot of guesthouses were booked up. It turned out to be a more than adequate choice and at 35zl (7 GBP) per night, we couldn't complain.
Adjacent to a camp site, we initially struggled to find it, this being largely down to the fact that we'd left the adress at home. At the very entrance of the village, it's about 15-20 minutes walk to get to the palce and park and is actually one of the more distant guesthouses. When entering from Hajnowka, it's a couple of hundred metres after the sign to Bialowieza and before the sign to the Belarus border.
The rooms were newly built and there was about 6 or 7 of them, each came newly finished with an ensuite bathroom and a small TV. The beds were large, although the double beds were in fact two singles pushed together. The mattresses were quite hard but comfortable and I could imagine it would be a cold room out of the summer season. Our room faced the back of the building, meaning we got a nice view of the makeshift car park below. On the landing was a kettle with cups, tea and coffee that guests could help themselves to. Overall, it was reasonably basic but rather luxurious for the price. The staff were usually on hand to cater to our needs and were incredibly friendly. At the time of visiting they did not have a reception as such as they'd not had time to build one before the season kicked in.
One evening we decided to check the restaurant/pub below. Despite being empty, it had an optimistic outlook, belting out "Disco Polo" (an odd kind of Polish music, incredibly simplistic and lacking in much in the way of musical talent yet quite upbeat all the same). We went through the restaurant and sat outside on the terrace, We ordered two types of soup, ogorkowa (a gherkin based soup) and barszcz (borsch), the former had a deadly amount of black pepper in it, so much that it looked as though someone had tripped over and dropped a bag of it in! My wife's barszcz was not up to her standards and she found it a bit weak and tasteless, we didn't venture further into the menu and decided to call it a night, presuming the restaurant wasn't the places strong point.
We obviously weren't alone in this school of thought as it remained quiet for the rest of our stay. Outside the guesthouse are some wooden tables that make for a nice picnic spot and there are two shops within spitting distance, if you want to make your own breakfast or other meals. Unless you study animals or live close by, multiple visits to Bialowieza are fairly unlikely but if I do return then I would not mind staying in this affordable yet modern guest house. The camspite which I believe belongs to the same place, also looks acceptable.

Mont Saint-Michel or Toledo: Greek or Arabic Sources for Medieval European Culture?
Sylvain Gouguenheim has recently caused a controversy in claiming that European culture owes nothing to Arabic culture, but that the successive renewals of learning of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance were entirely of Greek inspiration (Aristote au Mont Saint-Michel: Les racines grecques de l'Europe chrétienne). This lecture weighs the relative importance of translations made from Greek and those made from Arabic in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, in an attempt to achieve a balanced view of what European culture owed to its ancient forerunners and to then contemporary Byzantine and Islamic civilizations.

Site: Ann Arbor, Mich. (Varsity Tennis Center)
Score: Michigan 7, Western Michigan 0
Records: U-M (1-0), Western Michigan (1-1)
Next U-M Event: Saturday, Jan. 22 -- vs. Texas (Varsity Tennis Center), 6 p.m.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The No. 25-ranked University of Michigan men's tennis team earned a win in its first dual match of the season, shutting down Western Michigan, 7-0, on Saturday evening (Jan. 15) inside the Varsity Tennis Center.
Both teams battled for the doubles point, but Michigan grabbed it by winning the first two matches. Senior Jason Jung (Torrance, Calif./West Torrance) and sophomore Evan King (Chicago, Ill./Kaplan), the No. 28-ranked doubles team in the nation, had little trouble with Thomas Calderone and Michael Calderone (Western Michigan), winning 8-4. With the score tied 6-6 at No. 2, sophomore Chris Cha (Eureka, Mo./University of Missouri H.S.) and freshman Shaun Bernstein (Plainview, N.Y./Plainview Old Bethpage JFK) broke serve to take the lead, 7-6, and won the next game to take the match, 8-6, over Kazuya Komada and Zeyad Montasser (Western Michigan) as the Wolverines led 1-0 heading into singles.
U-M then won all six singles matches, some in tough fashion. The clinching win came at No. 6, as freshman Barrett Franks (Christchurch, New Zealand/Shirley Boys') held off Brad Noel (Western Michigan), 6-4, 6-4. In addition, both Cha and freshman Justin Rossi (Novi, Mich./Laurel Springs Prep) had to rally in the second sets of their matches, eventually winning in super-tiebreakers.
The Wolverines return to the court next Saturday (Jan. 22), when they host No. 5 Texas at 6 p.m. at the Varsity Tennis Center.
The following are match-by-match results:
No. 1 -- Evan King (U-M) d. Michael Calderone (Western Michigan), 7-5, 6-4
No. 2 -- No. 35 Jason Jung (U-M) d. Kazuya Komada (Western Michigan), 6-2, 7-6 (3)
No. 3 -- Justin Rossi (U-M) d. Simon Blomberg (Western Michigan), 3-6, 7-6 (2), (10-3)
No. 4 -- Chris Cha (U-M) d. Pablo Olivarez (Western Michigan), 4-6, 6-2, (15-13)
No. 5 -- Shaun Bernstein (U-M) d. Casey Cullen (Western Michigan), 6-2, 6-4
No. 6 -- Barrett Franks (U-M) d. Brad Noel (Western Michigan), 6-4, 6-4
No. 1 -- No. 28 Evan King/Jason Jung (U-M) d. Thomas Calderone/Michael Calderone (Western Michigan), 8-4
No. 2 -- Shaun Bernstein/Chris Cha (U-M) d. Kazuya Komada/Zeyad Montasser (Western Michigan), 8-6
No. 3 -- Pablo Olivarez/Casey Cullen (Western Michigan) d. Barrett Franks/Justin Rossi (U-M), 8-6
Order of Completion: Doubles 1-2-3, Singles 1-5-6*-2-3-4
* Clinched match
The match between Michigan and Western Michigan was the 61st in the series. With the win, Michigan leads the all-time series 52-8 (.866).
Michigan has won eight straight against Western Michigan. Its last loss to the Broncos came on Jan. 18, 2003.
The Wolverines have won eight straight season openers.
The win was No. 97 at Michigan for head coach Bruce Berque.
Three freshmen were in the lineup for Michigan against Western Michigan: Justin Rossi at No. 3, Shaun Bernstein at No. 5 and Barrett Franks at No. 6.
Attendance was 305.
Michigan Head Coach Bruce Berque
On his team's effort in the match ... "I thought it was a good effort. Western Michigan is always good, competitive and well-coached. They are one of the better teams we have played this season. I thought we fought hard on every one of our matches, including doubles. We've got a young team, but good, competitive efforts on most courts."
On the freshmen ... "Shaun, Justin and Barrett did well competitively. I think the only place we showed youth was in the third doubles match. Shaun won pretty decisively in singles and looked good in doubles. He didn't look nervous or rattled. Justin's opponent was playing well early and he made some good strategical adjustments. That's what he's going to be known for. He's going to be fun to watch through four years, because competitively, he's such a hard worker. Good effort by those guys."
On adjustments that need to be made before hosting Texas ... "We just have to keep getting better during the week. That should help our freshmen and everyone get more comfortable. I think you'll see slow, consistent, and gradual improvement during the season. This is a group that is going to get better every week."
U-M Sophomore Evan King
On his singles match ... "I thought the match went pretty well. He started off serving big, holds a lot through the first set, and I had a couple chances to break. Winning that first set was big for me. The second set was weird. There were a lot of breaks. He was lighting stuff up, so I had to keep being mentally strong and keep fighting for every return point."
On if he was pleased with his match ... "I'm pretty happy. I don't like getting broken a couple times in one set but I returned well. Competitive wise, I thought I did well. That can help my game. I'm now just really pumped up for Texas."
On Texas ... "We already played them, so there is some familiarity there. There's a good chance we play similar people to last week [at Key Biscayne]. We know what to expect and know their tendencies, but they know the same about us. We know what they do in certain situations. Our team is going to be pumped up. Hopefully we can get a good crowd and some quality wins on the court."
U-M Freshman Shaun Bernstein
On his first match ... "It was great. A lot of fun. I thought my intensity and energy level was a good one for myself and for everyone. I'm pretty happy. Just have to keep getting better."
On doubles ... "It definitely took longer than we expected, but we knew that with a good team like Western Michigan, it was a possibility. Our energy had to be high, and I think it was. We just had to find a way to get through it and win the point. We were lucky to get it."

The University of Pennsylvania started last season 6-0 including a win over North Carolina. Despite going 6-1 in the Ivy League and earning the 1-seed in the Ivy League Tournament, Penn fell to Princeton and Duke in the Ivy and NCAA Tournament respectively despite beating each in the regular season.
"I don't feel we ended on a good note," says coach Karin Brower Corbett, "we had some nice wins, and I'm happy about that, but obviously we are disappointed about not winning the Ivy League Tournament and losing in the [NCAA] first round."
A young team will take the field for Corbett in search of the team's sixth straight NCAA appearance. Penn often slows down the tempo of games and excels in close contests with lockdown defense.
Only four times last season did Penn allow more than 10 goals in a game, a bright spot for a defense that is the hallmark of the program. A strong defensive unit plus controlled play on the field make Penn one of the toughest teams to score against.
Senior goalkeeper Emily Leitner (8.38GAA, 43.7%), a second-team All-Ivy player last season and a player who received an invite to try out for the U.S. team, returns as a team captain to protect the cage. In addition, Lydia Miller (19GB, 16CT) earned all-conference honors as a freshman last year at defender.
The rest of the unit will also be young, relying on underclassmen to step into roles of graduated senior defenders Carolyn Pollard and Lily Posner. But Penn historically been able to plug in youth on the defensive end and be strong.
"A couple of freshmen have the potential to get out there," says Corbett, "they are young, and that is always interesting in how they will rise with the schedule that we have. They have the tools to play on our defense and make a big statement on the team."
The Quaker class of seven will be very important to this team, especially with a squad with only two seniors and five juniors.
Underclassmen will make up the whole defensive end and most of the midfield. Meg Markham, a high school All-American defender out of Manhasset, has already been named a starter after a great fall ball season.
"She has good body position and game sense, plus she understands how to play defense down a man [with the new rules], says Corbett, "she is also a speedy player that is one of the best bringing the ball up in transition."
Taylor Foussadier and Leah McBride will also be in the mix on defense.
On the offensive end, Grace Newfrock, a player who missed a lot of time in high school and fall ball with knee issues plus a torn ACL, is a strong athletic player and has been cleared to play. Lindsay O'Loughlin is a quick attack with a great release and may have the chance to start.
If you order Penn's roster by last name, senior attack Erin Brennan (34G, 18A), junior attack Caroline Bunting (21G, 9A) and junior midfielder Meredith Cain (22G, 6A) appear in succession at the top only behind Tory Bensen. They were also on the top of the scoresheet for Penn being the top three scorers last season.
Brennan earned All-America status for the second year in a row last year and will serve as team captain of the offense. Corbett felt Bunting was an underrated player last season and played very well in the fall.
Penn also returns junior midfielder Maddie Poplawski (11G, 25GB), the team leader in draw controls last season with 43, who has started since her freshman year.
Towards the end of the season, Corbett felt that Penn lost its final two games against Princeton and Duke due to not being tough enough. She said that the team often relied heavily on Brennan. But in the fall, Brennan's leadership may have rubbed off on her teammates.
"In big games, she was the one we were totally relying on," says Corbett, "she is such an inspiration that this fall we've had a lot more kids step up."
Last season, Penn scored just over nine goals a game, only scoring above 10 goals four times. All four of those times were victories with the team's defense.
"This team has great chemistry and this fall they were not nervous," says Corbett, "they played with a lot of confidence and I hope that continues through the season."
A player that may be an X-factor in the offense is sophomore Courtney Tomchik, a top-15 IL recruit as a freshman that missed all of last season due to injury.
The Quakers are set to play seven teams that finished in the top-20 last season and three more that had winning records. This season, Penn adds Georgetown to the schedule, plays all four Final Four teams from last season plus the Ivy League continues to get stronger. Despite earning the 1-seed in the conference tournament, Penn fell to 4-seed Princeton. Penn, Princeton and Dartmouth all made the NCAA Tournament, plus Harvard returns nearly an entire team that made the conference final.
"The [Ivy] League is really good this year," says Corbett, "we had a lot of upsets last year out of conference play. I think it is going to be an exciting and competitive year and [the championship] is up in the air."
Penn's lone All-American last season, Brennan was the Quakers' top scorer. She scored 18 goals against the Ivy League, double more than any other Penn player.
"She is a tremendous leader and is so competitive, she often is putting the team on her shoulders," says Corbett.
Bensen suffered from mono last season, causing her to have a tough finish to the season. Despite this, she was Penn's top reserve on the offensive end and is now healthy and playing strong, so she can be a big factor this spring.
Last season, this game eventually determined the 1-seed in the Ivy League Tournament. Penn won a defensive battle last year; a different stage might make a different outcome.

Acorn Squash and Honey Pie with Cornmeal Crust
An appealing alternative to pumpkin pie, these small pies are filled with acorn squash, a delicious yet underused vegetable. Cornmeal gives the crust texture and enhances the pies; slightly nutty flavor.
- Servings: 10
- Yield: Makes 4 five-inch pies
Source: Martha Stewart Living, November 1996
- 3 small acorn squash, (about 3 pounds)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 4 large eggs, plus one large egg yolk
- 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
- 3/4 cup honey
- Cornmeal Pie Dough
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- Vegetable oil cooking spray
Cut squash in half lengthwise; remove seeds. Set a steamer rack inside a large pot with 2 inches of simmering water, and steam squash until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Scrape flesh from the shells of the cooled squash, and puree in the large bowl of a food processor until smooth. Add salt, cinnamon, and ginger. Add eggs, 1/2 cup milk, and honey. Pulse until thoroughly combined.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough 1/8 inch thick. Drape over pie pan, trimming edges to fit rim of pan. Create decorative edge as desired. Repeat with remaining dough and pie pans. Mix egg yolk and remaining tablespoon milk; brush over surface of dough.
Heat oven to 425 degrees. Divide filling among pie crusts. Transfer pies to lower rack in oven, and bake for 10 minutes. Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees. and bake until filling is barely set, 25 to 30 minutes more; it will continue to cook as it cools. If crusts get too dark before the custard is done, make a tent with aluminum foil around crust. Transfer pies to wire rack to cool. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Oh Dobbo, I don't understand you or your existentialist ways. You live with your head in the clouds in a colourful, punctuation-free world that makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever.
This is Dobbo introduces the character Dobbo, the "children's philosopher" who lives in the clouds. There is no story as such, with the book covering Dobbo's seemingly random thoughts and activities.
I must be getting old and narrow-minded though, because Jack and Paloma love you, dear Dobbo. They love you, your friends, your clouds, your laughing, your moustache and your sunglasses. They don't need to "get" you, they just enjoy you for what you are. Maybe there's a lesson there.
I would never have bought this book myself. Now we have it though we're keeping it, and it's a firm favourite.
My recommendation? Try it, you might just like it.

Saving the World One Coal Plant at a Time
Posted on Jun 3, 2014
Square, Story page, 2nd paragraph, mobile
The Obama administration's proposed new rule for existing power plants—reducing heat-trapping carbon emissions by up to 30 percent by 2030—is ambitious enough to get anyone's attention. No, this one measure will not halt or reverse human-induced warming of the atmosphere. But the rule is necessary in the context of seeking international consensus on solutions—and also significant in its own right.
Before Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy could announce the new rule Monday, critics were already bellowing about higher energy rates and lost jobs. They pretended not to see that President Obama—as with health care reform—is taking what ought to be seen as a Republican-friendly approach.
The rule, which will not become final until next year, gives states great flexibility in how they reach the target. They are not forced to immediately begin shutting down the aging coal-fired power plants that constitute one of the biggest sources of carbon pollution. Rather, each state can take the path that best fits its circumstances—ramping up the generation of energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar, for example, or entering regional cap-and-trade agreements.

Many of those who do not believe in climate change also reject the idea that carbon dioxide can be called a pollutant, since it is a natural and necessary component of the air we breathe. But direct measurement shows that the concentration of carbon dioxide in atmosphere has increased by an astounding 40 percent since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, when humankind began burning fossil fuels in earnest. As with any poison—or pollutant—it's the dose that counts.
This thickening pall of human-generated carbon dioxide—which traps heat, according to universally accepted principles of physics and chemistry—has coincided with a long-term rise in average temperatures that agrees with climate scientists' predictions. The big unanswered question isn't scientific, it's political: Will we continue to turn up the thermostat?
The question that some skeptics like to pose—"Why should the United States take such a big step on its own?"—is meaningless, when you think about it.
China is the world's largest emitter of carbon dioxide. Emissions are rising sharply in India and other rapidly industrializing countries. Nothing the United States does unilaterally, or even in concert with Europe and Japan, can solve the problem. What we really need is a global solution.
All this is true, but one less ton of carbon makes an incremental difference, however slight. Obama's major energy initiatives—higher fuel economy standards for vehicles, plus the new power plant emissions rule—will mean billions of tons less of carbon dioxide in the air. It is true that we cannot save the planet on our own. But it is also true that if warming-induced disaster is inevitable, it will arrive sooner if we fail to act.
Meanwhile, Chinese and Indian universities are full of scientists who are warning their own governments about the negative impacts of carbon emissions. China has already signaled its intention to move away from coal, and while this is easier said than done, Chinese officials have an added incentive: The noxious smog that shrouds major cities, most of it from coal-fired power plants, has stoked real anger among the country's burgeoning urban middle class. In other industrializing countries as well, as people get richer they will demand a cleaner environment.
Obama hopes that action by the United States, the richest country in the world, will make it possible for the other big carbon emitters to act. Some of the domestic critics who scoff at this notion also complain that Obama, in their view, does not sufficiently assert U.S. leadership around the globe. What do these people think leadership means, if not actually leading?
The bonus is that closing coal-fired power plants will encourage the development of cleaner energy sources. The power generation industry was already moving toward cheap, plentiful natural gas, which releases much less carbon. Gas should be seen as a bridge toward clean, renewable energy sources—an industry that will be huge in the 21st century.
It's our choice. We can try our best to ensure that the next industrial revolution—the one that ends dependence on fossil fuels—happens here. Or we can watch it happen in China.

If you have read any of my past posts, you know that I am always on the quest to make and photograph cute cupcakes. You know what I'm talking about, don't you. You see these adorable cupcakes on the web or in a magazine or cookbook and you say to yourself, "I am going to make those cupcakes because they are just so adorable." Well, at least I say that to myself and, really, anyone else who will listen.
I had another opportunity to make cupcakes because it was my oldest son's birthday and the family celebrated it on Sunday.
The above photo was taken a few years ago. But here's another more recent one.
I've mentioned on other posts that Yes!Chef! does not like to bake. He doesn't even like to make desserts, even if it does not involve baking. Many years ago, when he was just learning to cook, he had a very bad experience with a dessert that involved gelatin and he has not liked to make desserts ever since that time. He told me that making desserts takes away his creativity because one must follow the directions exactly. I have a tendency to agree with him. But, I went ahead with my cute cupcake quest anyway.
Feb 24
I would love to be able to say that I made cupcakes yesterday and they turned out adorably. I would love to post some photos that would make you swoon. Alas, this is not exactly what happened. It all started out innocently enough but something went wrong about the time that I added the flour while the mixer was in motion and flour flew everywhere. All I needed was a long, long trailer and you could call me "Lucy" as in Lucille Ball in the movie, The Long, Long Trailer. If you haven't seen the movie, which came out in 1953 (I saw it much later), you really should. It's a laugh out loud funny movie. Lucille Ball had perfect timing for comedy.

The Oakland A's ended a busy week of transactions with the announcement of their Opening Day 25-man roster on Saturday afternoon. The A's will open the season with 12 pitchers, two catchers, six infielders and five outfielders. Oakland will also open the season with three players on the disabled list (Fernando Rodriguez, Adam Rosales and Hiroyuki Nakajima).
Rodriguez will be out for the entire season after he underwent Tommy John surgery earlier this week. Rosales and Nakajima may only miss a few weeks, however, as each are dealing with muscle strains. Nakajima has a left hamstring strain and Rosales has a strained left intercostal.
After optioning left-hander Jordan Norberto and DFAing 1B Daric Barton and Travis Blackley on Friday, the A's finalized their roster by optioning left-hander Pedro Figueroa and infielder Andy Parrino to Triple-A Sacramento and re-assigning catcher Luke Montz, right-hander Mike Ekstrom and left-hander Hideki Okajima. Norberto, Figueroa, Parrino, Montz, Ekstrom and Okajima are all expected to start the season with Sacramento.
The A's second base and back-up infield spots went to Eric Sogard, Scott Sizemore and Nate Freiman. Sogard and Sizemore are expected to platoon at second base in the early going, while Freiman will platoon with Brandon Moss at first base. In the bullpen, right-hander Evan Scribner won the final spot.
Oakland's starting rotation to begin the season will be Brett Anderson, Jarrod Parker, Tommy Milone, A.J. Griffin and Dan Straily. Bartolo Colon will be eligible to return from his suspension on the sixth day of the regular season. He will need to be added to the 25-man and 40-man rosters at that point. Colon is expected to take Straily's spot in the rotation, although that could change at any time.
With Nakajima sidelined, Jed Lowrie will assume the everyday shortstop duties, with Sogard filling in on occasion.
Below is the entire A's Opening Day roster:

Today we continue our journey with Scott Weston through the Point Piper Apartment and the Rozelle House. We take a look at what these spaces were like when Scott and Gregory first stepped into the scene, and Scott explains their grand plans for both renovations. As an added bonus, there is also a hilarious photo of Tintin in a wig! – Jenny
Point Piper Apartment – original condition and SWAD's proposal
Bathroom and bedroom existing condition. Why hello there, that appears to be Scott Weston in the mirror!
Point Piper Apartment
Now back to Point Piper where we find a gracious 1920's apartment with 'Great Bones' – however there's no laundry, no gas, the plumbing is shot and the electrics are all cloth wired with bakelite fittings. Did we mention that the balcony is about to drop off?
BUT we have a great bathroom that needs gutting however – a clue (*lightbulb moment) to referencing Art Deco with a modern twist!
Some of the original joinery by Paul Kafka in the Point Piper Apartment
The joinery items throughout are sadly looking a bit neglected like 'Miss Havisham', however to our surprise they're designed and manufactured by Paul Kafka. Google his name and you will see why we all respect this joiner as it's all about the 'attention to detail.'
Most joinery now is all 'façadism' with little thought given to the inner carcasses, yet here we have great examples that have lasted many years, teaching us about great craftsmanship.
Samples and furniture / joinery reference for Point Piper apartment
So armed with the history of the apartment and these visual clues, we now set about overlaying what is required both functionally and aesthetically in our client's brief, whilst respecting the original style of the space.
The technical drawings for the new bathrooms- love the pink and yellow!
A pink coral bathroom with bevelled black dado and floor is decided upon for the main bathroom. A mustard yellow with the same dado and floor detail is planned for the ensuite. (You'll have to wait until Friday to see the results!)
Designing a child's bedroom that is compact, can cope with sleepovers and be future-proofed for a teenager, while tipping our hat to Deco, is the concept we are about to explore.
Child's bedroom, Point Piper apartment
Rozelle House
In it's original state, the Rozelle house is your typical worker's cottage with skillion roof add-ons that bear no co-relation to how a modern family wish to live work and function. The aim is to knock it down, maintain the existing metal roof and build an addition along the southern boundary to utilise the Northern orientation. Everything apart from the rainwater tank can be dumped, including the Client's furniture. It goes from 3 bedroom one bathroom to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, study and glamour living.
Rozelle House – original condition and plans to expand!
Unaccustomed as we are to using colour, we again raise the idea of building colour into the home as a foil or backdrop to an otherwise clean white box. A simple orange or cobalt blue element is now starting to appeal….
Colour inspiration for the Rozelle House
Rozelle House colour samples and finishes
What can we say the existing house…. 'has a face like a saucepan, totally featureless'. So it's now up to the Architects to introduce a design discipline that borrows on the client's heritage without being too literal!
Rozelle House – original condition ('face like a saucepan') !!
More colour reference for the Rozelle House, inspired in part by the client's Indian heritage
We start to explore and demonstrate ways of combining and contrasting colour so the client does not feel overwhelmed. We want them to be comfortable with the direction in which we are heading. Our idea is to use bold contrasting colours as the major design component in the kitchen and corridor.
The ground floor joinery object as visual backdrop, functional kitchen, secret pantry (with lilac interior), corridor wall, bathroom and laundry have now been resolve using this brave colour scheme.
I wonder if they will be receptive to a wardrobe door that takes them into a secret ensuite?
– Scott

In all my time out in the woods, I've never seen a Bobcat. Updated article is what I linked too.
From NBCNews.com:
"Three people, including a teenager, went face-to-face with an unlikely visitor to a Brookfield, Mass., home on Sunday: a wild bobcat.
Roger Mundell, 53, discovered the animal in his garage, police said. Before he had a chance to get his bearings, the bobcat lunged at him.
"It only took a split second for him to be on me," Mundell told WHDH, an NBC station in Boston. "I didn't have time to process it."
Mundell sustained a large gash on his forehead and puncture wounds on his arms during the attack.
"It hit me with it's face right here," Mundell told WHDH, pointing to the wound on his forehead. "Then it gave me a bear hug."
Mundell wrenched away from the animal and ran inside his house, slamming the door to the garage behind him. After Mundell told his wife -- whose name was not given -- what happened, she bolted out the front door to alert her 15-year-old nephew, according to Brookfield police chief Michael Blancherd.
But as soon as Mundell's wife went outside, the bobcat emerged from the garage's side door and lunged at her nephew. Mundell, who had also gone outside to warn his nephew, charged forward to rescue the teenager.
"I had to get it off my nephew," Mundell said. "I was in a t-shirt by then and that's when it ripped up my arms and stuff like that."
Mundell's next-door neighbor, Jim Mortenson, told WHDH he witnessed the attacks from his home's driveway, but the wheelchair-bound man couldn't do much to help.
"[The bobcat] just jumped on him, you know -- claws on him, was just trying to get him," Mortenson told WHDH.
Amid the frenzy, Mundell and his wife managed to pin the animal to the ground with a walking crutch. While Mundell kneeled on the bobcat, his wife darted inside to retrieve a handgun, which Mundell used to shoot and kill the animal, Blancherd said.
Mundell and his nephew were transported to a hospital to be treated for their injuries. The bobcat's carcass was taken to a veterinary hospital, where it will be tested for rabies, officer Sean Marino said.
Although bobcat sightings are not unusual in the isolated area where Mundell lives, attacks are rare."

May 21 Demonstrate/Testify at FCC Hearing: Broadcast Media Belongs to the People!
Public assets such as broadcast media need to be protected for the public good. That's the FCC's job and we the public need to be at a hearing at Stanford University this Friday, May 21st to tell them!
See the schedule below of the all-day event on Stanford campus, including periods for public testimony and demonstrations led by activist organizations that oppose weakening the ban on cross-ownership by large corporate news organizations. Demos are at 9:45 am and noon.
original image (970x712)
You may recall that the Federal Communications Commission held an unprecedented hearing on the Stanford campus two years ago...at that time the issue was internet neutrality. (indybay photo above is from street theater/demo at that event)
This Friday, May 21, the FCC returns to Stanford with a public hearing, which the FCC is billing as a "workshop", and public comment period on the topic of Media Ownership/Media Consolidation.
The FCC is soon going to decide how to proceed on modifying media ownership rules.
Note: you don't have to register and you can come for any portion of the event.
This event to be held in ***Dinkelspiel Auditorium from 10 to 5pm*** signals that the FCC may try to lift its longtime ban on cross-ownership, which prevents a single company from owning the major newspaper and a broadcast station in the same market.
9:45 am. the Raging Grannies will greet the FCC on the steps of Dinkelspiel Auditorium. Please join us! Demonstrate to oppose weakening the ban on cross-ownership by large corporate news organizations.
10:00 a.m. Opening remarks inside the Auditorium
10:15 a.m. Panel I-- Changing Distribution Channels
11:45 am public comments*
NOON to 1:15pm. Demonstration outside the auditorium by MoveOn members, Raging Grannies, more.
1:00pm Public hearing break
2:00pm Panel II - The Changing Financial and Business Model for Media in the 21st Century
Panelists include: multiple corporate media representatives, but also:
Jim Joyce, Vice President of Communications Workers of America and
Tiffiniy Ying Cheng of the Participatory Culture Foundation
3:30 to 5:00pm Public comment period*
*The last time the FCC held a public event at Stanford each person was limited to 90 seconds. There was a sign up procedure but everyone who attended was able to speak.
Please join in and be a voice against corporate control of our media.

November 10, 2011 — Award-winning European filmmaker Oliver Laxe will visit the University of Virginia to screen "You Are All Captains (Todos vós sodes capitáns)" and give an artist talk on Nov. 15 at 6 p.m. in the auditorium of the Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library and David and Mary Harrison Institute for American History, Literature, and Culture. The event is free and open to the public.
The son of Spanish immigrants, Laxe was born in Paris in 1982 and studied film at Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona. He moved to Tangiers, Morocco, four years ago, where he created and now runs "Dao Byed," a 16mm film workshop for disadvantaged children. This workshop led to his first feature film, "You Are All Captains."
The documentary is the story of his filmmaking experience with children living in a home for socially excluded youngsters in Tangiers. While filming, the director's unorthodox working methods cause his relationship with the children to disintegrate to such a point that the initial course of the project is altered.
The 2010 Cannes Film Festival selected the film for the Director's Fortnight, an event that shows independent films from all over the world in a non-competitive showcase, and the film earned the International Federation of Film Critics Prize.
The event is sponsored by the offices of the Vice Provost for the Arts and the Vice Provost for International Programs.

Soap & Glory The Righteous Body Butter
Soap & Glory The Righteous Body Butter Reviews
Overrated....Always wanted to try this brand since a lot of YouTubers rave about this. I really don't get what all the hype is about. Good thing I got a deluxe size for free. This stuff is too expensive for a body butter especially when I can get a better body butter for less. For some reason I was under the impression that this would smell kind of candy sweet since YouTubers mentions that they love the smell ...read moreof this. I hate the smell of this. It smells way too strong and perfumey. It kind of reminds me of the Miss Dior Cherie fragrance that I received as a sample way back when. I also hate moisturizers that feel too rubbery and this does just that. I like my skin to feel soft and moisturized afterwards. This just feels like it sits on top of the skin and doesn't absorb at all. I almost paid for this but good thing Ulta sent me this as a free gift with purchase since all the items I bought from Soap & Glory were out of stock. — 1 year, 8 months agobeautypoet101 | 581 reviews

Works Great, but Smells CheapThe Body Butter works wonderful at making the skin feel soft and smooth but, I can't help thinking that it smells like a teenager smells and I feel like I should be in a high school locker room. — 5 years, 9 months agoleo1999 | 678 reviews

A Quick RomanceUpon trying a sample of this product I fell in love with the scent and had to have it. For a while it became a staple in my hand bag and then my addiction slowly faded. It was pretty great moisturizer if you like heavy but the scent became kind of sickeningly sweet after my initial delight wore off. After a while (about half way through the small container) I got really tired of it and ran back t...read moreo my body shop butters. I'm a pretty picky body butter person....and the romance with this product was like a firework: lots of bang and excitement in the beginning but it fizzled just as quickly.

I don't think this video is real. I very well could be wrong...I'm not going to be dogmatic about it.
First, it looks to me like the girl is colored and shaded a little differently than the rest of the scene. Second, the audience doesn't seem to be watching her. And finally, a woman in a Freemasonry ceremony? doubtful
I'm no expert. Just a thought.

Savings accounts and money market accounts are different from each other practically in name only. From a saver's perspective, there is no difference between these types of accounts. There are many misconceptions about the supposed differences between savings accounts and money market accounts, and if you've ever tried to learn about these differences online, even from reading major banking industry websites, you may have received a great deal of misinformation.
I am not infallible; if you believe any of the information included below to be incorrect, let me know.
Banking Deal: Earn 1.00% APY on an FDIC-insured savings account at Barclays.
Withdrawal limits
Whether you open a savings account or a money market account at a bank in the United States, the bank applies your cash to their books as an asset and records a liability in the form of your deposit. The government considers both savings accounts and money market accounts as deposit accounts, not transaction accounts. Savings and money market accounts are not meant for frequent transactions. They are both limited by Regulation D, a Federal Reserve Board regulation that indicates that customers may make only six pre-authorized withdrawals from deposit accounts. ATM and teller withdrawals do not count against this limit, but debit card transactions, checks, and online transfers do. You may have read in various places online that only money market accounts are limited to six withdrawals, or you may have read that only savings accounts have this limitation. The limitation applies to all deposit accounts.

DVD Milk [DVD] [2008] [Region 1]
Not Yet Rated
"[T]he filmmakers have crucially infused the story with qualities in very short supply today -- gentleness and a humane embrace of all its characters..."
4 stars out of 4 -- "It's a total triumph, brimming with humor, heart, sexual heat, political provocation and a crying need to stir things up, just like Harvey did."
Rolling Stone
3.5 stars out of 4 -- "MILK has one of the finest ensemble casts this year and a magnificent, career-topping performance by Sean Penn, who disappears into the title role."
USA Today
"Penn, as we've come to expect, is extremely persuasive as someone with a different, more offbeat kind of charisma than many of his previous screen roles....Franco is a nice match for him....It's a powerful story."
Los Angeles Times
"Harvey Milk was an intriguing, inspiring figure. MILK is a marvel....A fascinating, multi-layered history lesson."
New York Times
"Gus Van Sant's incisive and stirring dramatization of Harvey Milk's heroic life and violent death....MILK is a fascinating film..." -- Grade: A-
Entertainment Weekly
"MILK tells Harvey Milk's story as one of a transformed life, a victory for individual freedom over state persecution, and a political and social cause."
Chicago Sun-Times
Ranked #1 in Rolling Stone's 'Movies Of The Year' -- "[A] true political film. It finds its bristling purpose in humanity, not ideology."
Rolling Stone
4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's apparent Van Sant was making any and all efforts to bring Milk's story as close to it origin points as possible. The authenticity this Oregon native provides is palpable and, at times, breathtaking."
Box Office
4 stars out of 5 -- "[Penn] finds sufficient space amid the historical milestones to hint at the intensely private pain that underpins Milk's mission."
Included in Entertainment Weekly's 2008 Films Of The Year -- "The movie becomes a stirring primer on the participatory political process, and an unspoken exhortation to get involved."
Entertainment Weekly
4 stars out of 5 -- "Gus Van Sant's earnest, lucid biopic is more than a portrait of one man. It's also a snapshot of his times..."
Total Film
"[T]he first great film to look at civil rights from the perspective of the gay movement....It transcends any single genre as a very human document that touches first and foremost on the need to give people hope."

Hopper Crunch – A Paleo Snack Food Review
I just ate 40 crickets. It's true! I just enjoyed a few handfuls of Hopper Crunch, the new and innovative Paleo granola that incorporates 40 crickets as cricket flour in each ½ cup serving. It's kind of weird to think I just chowed down 40 recently creepy crawly arthropods, but why shouldn't bugs be on the menu? Our ancestors certainly ate them and as vastly more gastronomically acceptable in the form of flour, crickets fit today's Paleo model: they're grain-free, … Continue reading

LeAnn Rimes, Eddie Cibrian Renew Vows: Couple Reties Knot on First Anniversary
It seems Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have some competition in the romance department. On Friday, as the R&B songstress and her multi-talented husband marked their anniversary by renewing their vows, LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian did likewise, celebrating their first year of marriage by saying "I do" all over again.
"Renewed our vows today….it's incredible to thank each other for the past year as husband and wife," Rimes tweeted. "Here's to another great year!"
LeAnn and Eddie famously found each other at a time when both were married to other people, and the 29-year-old country star has endured a fair amount of controversy because of the relationship. Much of the drama will find its way into her next album, Spitfire, which she previewed last month in Hollywood.
"If I didn't live it, I didn't write it," she told an audience that included The Boot. "Somewhere in this you'll find a storyline."

Some of the really people are nice. I had one person in the apt complex who went out at night into the parkin Read Moreg lot and inflated my car tire over by 20-30lbs. to make it blow up. Lucky me my car tires had sensors and I avoided an incident of it blowing up and me running over their child.

Amazon, B&N make concessions for Potter ebooks
By Alistair Barr
(Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc and Barnes & Noble Inc unveiled Harry Potter e-books on Tuesday in deals that suggest the companies made big concessions with author J.K. Rowling for electronic access to the hit series.
Amazon said it struck a distribution deal with J.K. Rowling's new website pottermore.com.
Amazon customers can search for the Harry Potter e-books in the company's Kindle Store, but will be directed to the Pottermore Shop to register and buy them, then add the titles to their Kindle library, the company said.
Users of Amazon's Kindle e-readers and Kindle Fire tablet will be able to read the e-books through those devices and through applications on other devices.
Barnes & Noble made a similar announcement, saying that customers of its Nook e-readers and tablets can buy Harry Potter e-books through the Pottermore Shop.
Sending customers away from Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble's website is a big concession for the companies because J.K. Rowling's Pottermore site will be able to collect customer information and credit card details. This is valuable information that e-commerce companies usually carefully guard.
"They are her customers now. She knows about them because they have registered with her site," said Mike Shatzkin, head of digital publishing consulting firm The Idea Logical Company. "It's a huge concession. Amazing."

Authorities arrested 22-year-old Hanan al-Samawi after tracking the name and address used on the packages. But after she was arrested, the shipping agent said she wasn't the one who signed the shipping documents, a Yemeni official said.
The release means investigators no longer have any suspects in custody in a suspected al Qaida plot that authorities believe was intended to take down cargo jetliners.
The Yemeni official said investigators now believe someone stole her identity and used it to mail the bombs. The woman, an engineering student, was released on bail but cannot leave the country pending further questioning.
Earlier a Qatar Airways spokesman said that one of two powerful bombs mailed from Yemen to Chicago-area synagogues travelled on two passenger planes within the Middle East.
The US said the plot bears the hallmarks of al Qaida's offshoot in Yemen and vowed to destroy the group.
The airline spokesman said a package containing explosives hidden in a printer cartridge arrived in Qatar Airways' hub in Doha, Qatar on one of the carrier's flights from the Yemeni capital Sana'a.
It was then shipped on a separate Qatar Airways plane to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where it was discovered by authorities. A second, similar package turned up in at East Midlands airport on Friday.
In Washington, President Barack Obama's deputy national security adviser John Brennan said authorities "have to presume" there might be more potential mail bombs like the ones pulled from planes in the UK and the UAE. US inspectors were heading to Yemen to monitor cargo security practices and pinpoint holes in the system.
Mr Brennan called it "a very sophisticated device, in terms of how it was constructed, how it was concealed" and said it was a viable device. "They were self-contained. They were able to be detonated at a time of the terrorists' choosing," Mr Brennan said, adding that officials are trying to determine whether the planes or the synagogues were the intended targets.Reuse content
