Integrating e-commerce into a beautiful portfolio website could be a daunting task for many, but Nick and Grant from The Future Forward pulled it off nicely while still maintaining the integrity of the artist's work.
Hello! Who are you? What's your company? How'd you get started in web development or with your business?
Hello! I'm Nick Hoag, one-half of The Future Forward - a design and development studio in Burlington, Vermont. My background is in web design and development, while my business partner Grant Stewart has worked in the graphic design field for many years.
After meeting around 5 years ago, we worked on a personal project together for our church - dwellchurch.com. Grant took on everything from naming the church, all the way to identity and web design. I took on everything media-related, including website development, SEO, podcasting, etc.
The project was a success on many levels, and Grant and I began to realize that we could accomplish great things together. We both had witnessed something very unfortunate occur in our industry far too often - designers and developers struggling to work together. We also worked for firms that were either heavy on design and "threw in" development here and there, or vice versa.
We wanted to write a different story, one where both design and development worked hand-in-hand, performed under one roof at an equally high level. Out of that desire, The Future Forward was born.
Since starting the company we have worked with a variety of clients - from a boutique jewelry company in LA, to one of the largest providers of carbon offsets in the country. We love working on a personal level, truly getting to know the individual or company that we are working with. And no matter the client or project, we have one primary goal: to build lasting relationships with individuals and businesses that share a similar vision, passion, and excitement.
Could you describe this project? What was the goal? What was the vision?
Projects often start with lengthy design briefs, lots of bullet points, and a little marketing jargon thrown in for extra flavor. Our relationship with WORKSTEAD began with a question… "Do you get it?" What followed was an ongoing dialog about our shared design philosophy and sensibilities.
WORKSTEAD was looking for a portfolio site to show their body of work, with added e-commerce functionality, without feeling like a typical online store. We built the site on MODX+FoxyCart, and utilized a heavy dose of jQuery and jQuery UI to accomplish the unique functionality we were going for.
In the end, they needed something different. They needed a site that truly reflected their approach to design. We developed a site that, like their work, was strong and rich, yet simple and efficient. We gave them a square, and allowed all the work to flow out from there.
What were your roles and responsibilities in this project?
Our role was to come up with multiple unique designs for the website. We ended up with five, which made narrowing things down an excitingly difficult challenge for the client. From there, we took on full development responsibilities including all CMS and E-commerce needs.
How'd you find FoxyCart, and what need or problem drove you to choose FoxyCart over other options?
Having used FoxyCart in the past, I knew it would integrate perfectly with the CMS solution we had chosen - namely, MODX. The site needed to be easy to manage, with multiple areas that included e-commerce functionality - the product portfolio, and the more traditional "shop" area. I laid out the overall structure of things in MODX, so the client would only need to add a product / images once, and it would then appear in both areas of the site. From there, integrating FoxyCart was an absolute breeze, taking what appears to be a portfolio site, and giving it full-fledged e-commerce functionality. FoxyCart's inherent flexibility made this site possible.
How was FoxyCart able to meet the need or problem?
In every way! It allowed me to develop the site my way, and then easily include e-commerce functionality as needed across the site.
What was your experience with using FoxyCart?
Seamless, and quite honestly, fun! Seeing a site like this come to life in a really unique way, enabled by the power of FoxyCart, was a truly enjoyable experience and one that I look forward to continuing in the future.
What surprised you about working with FoxyCart?
For me, the biggest surprise has been just how well FoxyCart integrates with other third party solutions via the API.
What would you say to other Developers/Designers/Merchants who are looking for an ecommerce solution?
Merchants: First of all, ask the tough questions - what do we really need our ecommerce solution to accomplish? Chances are you don't need a lot of the things you've grown accustomed to, and there are better ways to do it. Now, let FoxyCart be everything you need your ecommerce solution to be, and let other needs be handled by the best solution possible.
Designers/Developers: If you are in need of an e-commerce platform that allows you to do what you do best (ie design and develop brilliant sites) but don't feel like re-inventing the e-commerce wheel, just use FoxyCart. It will make your life easier. Plain and simple.

San Diego airport relents, allows anti-SeaWorld ad
By Marty Graham
SAN DIEGO (Reuters) - San Diego International Airport has agreed to run an animal rights group's advertisement asking visitors to avoid SeaWorld, a major city tourist attraction that has faced criticism over shows featuring killer whales, a civil rights group said on Thursday.
The airport, which had balked at displaying the ad, agreed to do so as part of a legal settlement after an animal rights group sued in March accusing the airport and the company that handles its advertising of infringing on its free speech rights.
"There appears to have been viewpoint discrimination, and we are glad that issue was resolved," said Sean Riordan, senior staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of San Diego and Imperial Counties, which helped represent People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in the lawsuit.
Officials at San Diego International Airport, without admitting wrongdoing in a legal settlement filed this month, agreed to allow the PETA advertising poster to go up this week in the airport's baggage claim area.
The ad welcomes visitors to San Diego and features film and television actress Kathy Najimy, a San Diego native. "If you love animals like I do, please avoid SeaWorld," the script says.
The legal tussle over the advertisement comes as SeaWorld faces scrutiny over conditions for its killer whales, in large part due to last year's broadcast of the documentary "Blackfish," which tells the story of an orca that killed a trainer at SeaWorld's park in Orlando, Florida, in 2010.
A California Democratic lawmaker has said he was inspired by "Blackfish" to introduce legislation proposing to ban SeaWorld from using killer whales to perform tricks in famed "Shamu" shows at its California park. The bill was effectively killed last month, as other lawmakers called for more research.
SeaWorld spokesman David Koontz called the ad a publicity stunt, and said the park's animals were healthy and happy and that SeaWorld was committed to ensuring their well-being. Continued...

There should be a "cam card" included w/the camshaft that lists the specifications of that particular cam.
In order to verify that the cam is actually what it is supposed to be (you cannot tell by looking at it, or not even always by the stamped numbers), you degree it to see that the cam matches the cam card.
My thoughts are that on a cam like this there's not much to be gained by degreeing
lobe, but at the very least you should do an intake and exhaust lobe to verify the specs and to be sure the timing set, etc. are accurate, and to see that you don't have a tolerance "stack up" that will cause the cam to be out of phase.
If you find it is out a degree or two, this is the time to compensate for it by using a multi-keyway timing set or offset cam gear dowel bushings or an offset crank gear woodruff key to phase the cam correctly. This is also a good time to verify the timing tab and damper mark for TDC.

Domestic abuse linked to soccer match days: Scottish study
By Emma Batha
LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Reports of domestic violence increase significantly on days of certain soccer matches, according to a Scottish study published on Friday.
In some cases, reports of domestic abuse doubled on match days. The research suggests particularly important games or those against a traditional rival are associated with higher recorded rates of domestic violence.
The study, commissioned by the Scottish government, comes as it considers making domestic abuse a specific criminal offense.
Experts from the Scottish Center for Crime and Justice Research reviewed studies from the last 25 years in Scotland, the United Kingdom and United States.
"All the research we looked at suggested there was an increase in domestic abuse reports around soccer matches ... But what we don't know so well is why that link might be there," said the report's coordinator Oona Brooks.
The University of Glasgow criminologist said it would be too simplistic to suggest that soccer caused domestic violence.
"Domestic abuse is a pattern of controlling behavior rather than a discrete incident; linking its occurrence to a particular soccer match or sporting event may simply reinforce the idea that it is an infrequent act, triggered only at these times."
Some studies showed reports increased when a team won, perhaps because of greater aggression and alcohol consumption. But other research indicated the opposite. Several studies suggested the real difference was if the outcome was unexpected. Continued...

Oct. 22, 2013
By Brian Rice KNOXVILLE, Tenn.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.-- Big wins in big games are the reason top athletes come to play football at a place like Tennessee. But getting past the win and keeping from losing focus on the task at hand can be one of the most challenging aspects of major college football.
In the Southeastern Conference, the week-to-week schedule grind is a challenge for every team, but coming off of a big win, an opponent that demands the total focus of a team works in favor of preventing that big win hangover.
If the Volunteers needed a reminder of the effort and focus needed heading into Tuscaloosa Saturday for a matchup with top-ranked Alabama, head coach Butch Jones provided it in Sunday's team meeting.
"He said this is a great victory and it was very rejoiceful for our team and our institution," senior defensive lineman Jacques Smith said, recapping Jones' message from Sunday. "It's something that we just have to let go of through the week because we have a big team coming up this week."
For Rajion Neal, the challenge Alabama presents comes in the form of the SEC's top-ranked rushing defense, which has surrendered just 688 yards in seven games this season, the only SEC D that has allowed less than 100 yards a game. The Crimson Tide is tied atop the NCAA stat list with Iowa and Florida State for fewest rushing touchdowns allowed with two.
"It makes you throw away what we did last week, get past it," Neal said. "With a team like this, you almost have to be perfect, and I think it comes at the perfect time, because we know we have to get off of what we did and hone in and focus. Coming in this conference, that's what we signed up for."
Defensive lineman Corey Miller said the Volunteers didn't need a big reminder of the challenge Alabama posed, but agreed that the timing of the challenge prevented that big win hangover.
"It definitely helps because you know you have a huge opponent," he said. "You've heard about them, seen them on TV every week, so coming off of an emotional win, it's a refocus. You come out here and know what you're preparing for."
What the defense is preparing for is an experienced offensive front across the line of scrimmage and an experienced quarterback in A.J. McCarron, who is 32-2 as a starter, a .941 winning percentage, which currently stands as an Alabama and SEC record. The Alabama starting offensive line has combined for 69 starts, led by senior right guard Anthony Steen's 31.
"I see a very good and very talented offensive line and a well-coached quarterback," Smith said when asked of his impressions of Alabama on tape. "A.J. is going to make some plays, we know he's going to make some plays, but our focus is all on us and what we can do to stop him."

MC Veterans Affairs Office Important Information
What do I do if my check doesn't arrive?
Unfortunately, there isn't much that the MC Veterans Affairs office can do if your check doesn't arrive. The first thing YOU can do is to call our office to ensure that your certification has been submitted. If it has been submitted, you should call the VA at 1-888-442-4551. The VA representatives at this number can look up your file when you provide them with your VA claim number. They are able to verify or deny receipt of your certification as well as determine whether or not your check has been cut.
Adds/Drops/Withdrawals/Change of Address
Many veterans assume that the Veterans Affairs office is automatically informed when there has been a change in the student's address, schedule or withdrawal from Midland College. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! Each veteran is PERSONALLY responsible for reporting ANY change in his/her status directly to the VA Coordinator.
All adds, drops and withdrawals MUST be reported by the veteran in order to receive the applicable benefits correctly. Remember, the veteran will be held responsible for all overpayments.
Changes of address or direct deposit information MUST be reported by the veteran to the VA Processing Office. This can be done by phone at 1-800-442-4551 or on the GI Bill website at either the "WAVE" or the "ASK A QUESTION" feature.
Repeating of Courses
A repeated course may only be certified by the VA if:
• a minimum grade of "C" is required by a department as stated in the catalog.
• a course is failed. NOTE: If the course is failed a second time, the student will be required to re-pay the VA for that course.
The VA will not allow payment for courses for which the student has already received credit. It is the student's responsibility to ensure that there is no repetition of a course which has been previously completed and passed.
Unsatisfactory Progress
VA students must meet the criteria for satisfactory progress as put forth in the Midland College catalog. A student who remains on academic probation for two consecutive terms must be reported to the RPO as making unsatisfactory progress. Once reported for unsatisfactory progress benefits are terminated and cannot be resumed until the student attends and regains good academic standing at Midland College. The VA Coordinator will then report to the RPO the student's renewed eligibility for VA education benefits.
Hours & Rate of Pursuit for Undergraduates
For the Fall and Spring semesters:
Full Time = 12 or more hours
3/4 Time = 9 to 11 hours
1/2 Time = 6 to 8 hours
For the Summer semesters:
Full Time = 4 hours in each 5-week session; 6 hours in each 8-week session
3/4 Time = 3 hours in each 5-week session; 5 hours in each 8-week session
1/2 Time = 2 hours in each 5-week session; 3 hours in each 8-week session
Hazlewood Exemption
The Hazlewood Act (Section 54.203, Texas Education Code) exempts Texas veterans from payment of tuition and certain fees at state-supported institutions of higher education. There have been recent changes made to this legislation affecting the eligibility of the veteran, the assignment of Hazlewood hours to certain dependents, and the ability of the veteran to use some federal education benefits concurrently with the Hazlewood Exemption. For more information please contact the Midland College Financial Aid office or visit the Texas Veterans Commission website at www.tvc.state.tx.us.
The MC Veterans Affairs office is here to assist students seeking VA education benefits. We strive to ensure that each student fulfills his/her responsibilities under the VA program.
Contact Information:
Kimberly Schipper, VA Coordinator
Financial Aid Office, Scharbauer Student Center, Room 131

Windows 8 installation of VPN Client Software (x86 64-bit version) results in "Icon09DB8A851.exe" on startup task
I've just installed a VPN Client Software for x86 64-bit version of Vista and Windows 7 (vpnclient-winx64-msi-5.0.07.0440-k9.exe) to Windows 8. It's working without problem except that it seems to add an entry "c:\Windows\Installer\{5FDC06BF-3D3D-4367-8FFB-4FAFCB61972D}\Icon09DB8A851.exe" onto startup task. I suspect the installer program (InstallShield) is not working properly. I'd like to know if anyone has same issue or my computer got infected in malware.

text: Shares and units Shares in a company or units in a unit trust (including a managed fund) are treated in the same way as any other CGT asset. CGT applies to capital gains on shares or units when a CGT event happens, such as when you sell them (unless you acquired them before CGT started on 20 September 1985). Profits on the sale of shares made as part of a business of share trading are included as ordinary income rather than as capital gains. Find out about: CGT events affecting shares and units Records relating to shares and units See also: You and your shares Carrying on a business of share trading You may have to pay tax on any capital gain you make on shares or units when a CGT event happens, such as when you sell them. A CGT event also occurs when you redeem units in a managed fund by switching them from one fund to another.Last modified: 10 Jun 2015QC 22173

Keith Urban can rest assured America does have a pulse.
On Wednesday night's "American Idol," after Candice Glover tore down the house with her rendition of "Someday" from "West Side Story," Keith suggested that if people in America didn't vote for the singer after that performance, they "probably didn't have a pulse."
And, on Thursday night's results show, hearts beat loudly for Candice, who was the first contestant put through to the Season 12 finale.
PHOTOS: Nicki Minaj: Her Wild Style
A huge roar went through the studio audience over the announcement and even the judges were on their feet cheering.
"I'm not gonna cry," an emotional Candice said after learning the news.
POLL: Did the right two make it to the finale on 'Idol'?
She will compete against powerful country-leaning vocalist Kree Harrison, who was kept until the end of the night to learn about her spot in the finals.
As Kree was sent on to the finale, it was Angie Miller, 19, who was eliminated.
It was a tearful moment for the young woman, who shortly after learning the news, had to perform one final song.
"It's tradition," host Ryan Seacrest said.
WATCH IT NOW: 'American Idol': Candice Glover - I'm A 'Different' Person Now
Angie struggled through the number, and as the camera panned to the judges, fans could see Mariah Carey trying to coach her through it.
"I'm sorry," Angie said as she continued to try to sing.
Eventually, her family was invited up on stage, and the judges rushed up to embrace the departing youngster.
Earlier in the day on Thursday, Judge Randy Jackson issued a statement to the media, announcing he will leave "Idol" at the end of the current season, but the news was only jokingly addressed on the program.
"A little later on, we'll announce who is leaving our show," Ryan said, swinging Randy's chair around at the judges' table.

Catholics did not "hand down to the Putney debaters the very Christian scriptures on which they based their arguments" (Letters, October 31). Those scriptures were available to the Putney debaters in English, rather than Latin as they had been in the middle ages. From the time of John Wycliffe and the Lollards, the Catholic church, led by its archbishops, did its utmost to prevent the circulation of the gospels and other parts of the scriptures in English, including burning at the stake those who translated or read the Bible in English.

I know a bit of phonetics terminology can sound impressive, but there's nothing particularly north Germanic about the voiced dental fricative (Fjord focus, Film & Music, November 2). It's the sound you hear at the start of such humble English words as "the", "this" and "that".

I was amused to read that Christopher Foyle's favourite word is kakistocracy (Raconteur who wrestled to keep Foyles in the family, November 2), but confused by the fact that it apparently describes "a system of government where the rulers are the least competent, least qualified or most unprincipled citizens". Surely the word "government" already conveys this meaning on its own?

Recognize Before You Have to Apologize: Social Media for Crisis Management
In less than a decade crisis management has changed. In 2003, a crisis happened when the press got wind of something that reflected poorly on your company. It lived in headlines, sound bites and the odd blog or two. It took hours to build and days to bring under control. Today, a crisis moves at the speed of social media. It lives in Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. And it lives in real-time. However, social media gives marketing and PR opportunities you didn't have a decade ago: the ability to change the conversation, before you have to deal with a crisis.
In 2013, the combination of the right approach and the right social listening and engagement tools can help you diffuse a potential crisis before it hits mainstream media. You can even turn a crisis into an opportunity, ending up with more fans and loyal customers than before, along with a stronger, more positive brand reputation.
The tips in this white paper will show you how to plan ahead, and leverage social media tools to stave off any negative chatter before it grows into a crisis.

What Shotgun
what guns are you shooting model and ga.untill I buy a new gun I will be useing aWinchester model 12 12ga. It's my dads old gun and I am looking at getting a benelli super nova
the cheapest
i probably am using the cheapest 12 gauge pump on the market. its a model 88 maverick (by mossberg). i think you can get them at wally world right now for about $150-$199. but it shoots straight and will drop a turkey like a rock.
one day maybe ill be rich and will be able to afford a benelli
The Benelli I'm looking at is less than $500:smile:
I dont think I would spend 500$ on a shotgun.I have one of those same mossberg guns and i love it hardly ever jammes up.I go hunting with my buddies all of their guns jam and mess up mine never does.
well around here $500 is not very expensive
especially for a Benelli most are over $1000
i agree with you on that critter. $500 is not bad at all for a benelli.
the benelli nova is the gun i used last year for turkey and dove hunting needless to say i sold it for $250 not that it is a bad gun but it is noise and it was very hard to pattern if i paid that much money for a benelli i would get the M1. I know have a mossberg 935 cant wait to try it out.
i dont think ive ever heard of anything bad about the mossberg 935. Good Gun
i'll use either my rem 870 12 ga or my old 20ga mossberg bolt action depends on the mood iam in both work good for me both ihave taken a lot of turkey and deer with

News came from the Russian blogger Eldar Murtazin, who had his fifteen minutes of fame after his Nokia N8 review resulted in Nokia taking legal actions against him. According to Murtazin, the device was really planned for release by Sony Ericsson, but eventually the project got scrapped at some point last year, possibly in favor of other Android smartphones.
That doesn't necessarily mean that we are not going to see Sony Ericsson smartphones to run WP7, but it is surely not going to be the one on the leaked photos. Android still seems to have the higher priority in SE's plans leaving no resources for implementing other platforms. Nevertheless, we will be paying attention to whatever Sony Ericsson has to say at CTIA in a couple of weeks.

The 300-year old insurance market said the policy had been triggered when it was forced to dip into its reserves, the Central Fund, to meet WTC claims. The fund is designed to ensure the market can cover claims, even if syndicates or their backers struggle. The back-up policy pays out if, in any one year, £100m or more is taken out of the fund.
'Before 11 September we did not predict we would need this insurance,' a spokeswoman said. 'A claim does not mean the Central Fund is exhausted, it means that £100m has been paid or is due to be paid in a single year.'
Lloyds's said in November that it would claim on the policy due to the high claims resulting from the 11 September attacks. But it said then it expected to claim only a small part of the policy, and only in 2003. At the time its gross liabilities from the WTC disaster - excluding reinsurance - were estimated at about £5.4bn.
In its latest statement, Lloyds said the fund still had more than £450m cash in it, and that this was set to increase to £700m by the end of next year. The fund is made up of a levy of 1% of a syndicate's capacity and 2% of the premiums it takes in.
Lloyd's pays premiums of £16m a year for the back-up policy, which is held with Swiss Re, Chubb Corporation, The St Paul Companies, XL Re, Employers Re and Hannover Re. It runs for five years between 1999 and the end of 2003.

" Brand: LG / Type: Fridge Freezer "
* Prices may differ from that shown
When our fridge freezer broke after only having it for three years, I was pretty angry. However, there is something about walking around the various electronic stores and seeing all of the nice 'goodies' you can buy which seemed to immdeiately cheer me up - I almost purchased a coffee machine and a new television and we had specifically gone into the store for a replacement fridge freezer!
We puchased the Silver LG fridge freezer online in the end from Curry's website, which was nice and easy. It cost us just over four hundred pounds, which seemed reasonable. Alhough, it did however take around four weeks to deliver, but did not dissapoint when it arrived.
It looks amazing. Ultimately, we both wanted an American fridge freezer, but I don't think the delivery guys would bring it up to our flat on the firts floor! But, in a way this LG model does look like a slimmed down version. The think which swayed us to go for this model was the fact that it has a water dispenser on the front of it. Along with the slick silver finish i think this makes it look ultra modern and adds to our kitchen.
Also, it has an A+ energy rating meaning that it's economical and it is quiet when running, there's nothing worse than the buzz of electrical items when you're trying to sleep. Inside of the fridge (at the top) are many different shelves, storage areas and other unique things like egg and bottle holders. The freezer is less impressive, it has three large pull out drawers and a decent storage capacity.
Overall, were very happy with the LG fridge freezer, but I think when we move and get a house we would ideally like an American. There is one small design feature which is a tad annoying. The water dispenser is not mains connected - you have to fill it up from the inside with tap water and wait for it to cool. If you overfill this then it does leak slightly, although you are warned of this on a stciker on the inside of the fridge.
I give this LG fridge freezer four dooyoo stars ****
The LG GB3133PVGK Fridge Freezer comes with a stylish platinum silver exterior and cleverly mixes intelligent control with great design / Accommodating a large 296 litre net capacity / It has an energy rating with a 367 kWh annual energy consumption which i / Short name: LG GB3133PVGK

by Khanisha Foster
June 7, 2012
Coming up on two years ago I moved to L.A., and since that time I have been writing. Writing creative non-fiction for 2nd Story, an organization that has stolen my heart, and writing my memoir—I'm the kid of a former Black Panther career criminal and heroin-addicted parents, one black and one white (so there's lots to write about there), and with the help of UCLA's professional program I'm in screenplay Heaven. All of this is work, commitment, and time well spent FO SHO, but here I am feeling like I'm cheating on acting.
Acting was the first and only thing I ever wanted to do. It taught me about my brain, my heart, my sexuality. I felt alive on stage before I ever felt it in real life. I was ready for the business you hear about when you grow up wanting to be an actor. I was going to be rejected. No problem. I was going to be poor. Since I had never been anything else, that was fine by me. I was going to have to work my butt off. This, to me, seemed to be the easiest part. My childhood was more than challenging, and my father always taught me I'd have to work twice as hard to get half as far, so hard work seemed habitual. What I wasn't ready for was the complete challenge of identity I was about to undergo.
I'm mixed; the list, which changes in specifics based on my audience and how they wish to receive it (everybody thinks they know more about being mixed than you do), goes like this: black and white, which then breaks down into Creole, which then breaks down into African, French, Spanish (Spain), plus Native American (I prefer this to American Indian), Scottish, Irish, and German. Are you trying to picture what I look like? If you don't know me or haven't seen a picture, my skin is honey-colored (or so every base makeup I ever bought tells me), while my hair is almost black like both of my parents'; its waves fall into curls and it is shiny soft, and even though it looks full, quite thin. Everyone thinks I'm Latina.
Which of course is a totally rockin' culture, right? Plus my husband is Latino which means my daughter is everything listed above and Latina. Here is where the challenge comes. As an actor, I have been told, more than once, in an assortment of ways:
"You're not believable as black."
"You're not white."
"There aren't any roles for mixed people."
"You could play Puerto Rican. Can you translate this script into Spanish for the shoot tomorrow?"
Now you may be thinking this is no big deal. You may be thinking the same thing I was told by a white male Artistic Director in a black box theatre in Chicago: "It's the same thing as if I had to play a redneck . . . well of course, I have rednecks in my family, I am kinda a redneck, but either way, it's your problem. Get over it."
Here is the thing: it's not like that at all. If you are white imagine always playing black roles. If you are black imagine always playing Asian roles. If you are Asian imagine always playing Latino roles, and if you are Latino imagine always playing black. Not most of the time, not some of the time, all of the time.
Now you might say, "Khanisha, it's on you to let the theatre community know what you want to play." EXACTLY what I thought! So I set up auditions where the company or the season was predominantly black (no mixed roles, remember) and I changed my monologues to ones that mentioned race. Want to know what happened?
At a major African-American Theater company I was told, "Your resumes makes you look Latino." When I was a reader at a mainly white theatre company that was doing a contemporary African-American play, they couldn't find an actor for a part that was my age (and, I thought, my type). I politely asked if I could read for the part. They told me that it would be a stretch to hire a Latina actor for the part. "I'm not Latina," I said. "I'm black and white. I'm mixed." The Artistic Director stormed out of the room. He did not like being corrected. Later he would call me out at a Q&A in front of a large audience for being too racially charged. (That, by the way, was the only conversation we ever had about race.)
Now you might be secretly thinking, Maybe it's not your race. Maybe you're not good. Fair enough, but I am good. Not the-world-should-know-I'm good-by-looking-at-me good, but I've spent my career training to be the performer I want to be. Questioning. Challenging. Failing. Pushing. And you know what? I'm good at what I do.
So ALL of this identity questioning led me to one answer: I have to write the stories I want to see in the world. I can't sit on my butt wishing for better. Except, learning to be an exceptional writer, in some ways, has led to me sitting on my butt. Crafting. Rewriting.
The writing is not about acting anymore, although I am, and always will be, an actor. It's about how surprising honesty can be. It's about being invited into someone's life instead of preaching rights and wrongs. It's about acknowledging who I am to myself and not waiting for anyone else to do it.
The sweet beauty of it all, is that simply stating my truth has brought me to a group of people who are doing the same. For the second year in a row I am the Live Event Producer for the Mixed Roots Film and Literary Festival out here in Los Angeles. The festival was founded by true-to-life best friends Fanshen Cox and Heidi Durrow. Fanshen is a wonderful actress and filmmaker. Heidi is the New York Times bestselling author of The Girl Who Fell From the Sky. Dudes and dudettes, if you have not read this book, do yourselves a favor. It is a delight and a heartbreak.
These two amazing ladies were told repeatedly that there is no audience for mixed race people. Luckily, they are brilliant and stubborn. Knowing there was—and is—an audience, they created a space where it could show itself. Brilliant, no?
The result is a host of people sharing each other's stories at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles on June 15, 16, and 17. This festival is for EVERYBODY. If you are mixed, you love someone whose mixed, you know someone who's mixed, or you love great storytelling, we will see you there.
Stop by and say hello. I'll be that curly-headed mixed chick telling stories: body, paper, and soul.

Ever since I got my car back from the shop(ran into a ditch & tore the boot off of the left front CV joint) it makes this subtle humming noise at about 60+mph. You can only hear it over road noise on smooth pavement, but it's still annoying and concerns me. I kind of sounds like it's pulsating and coming from the front of the car.. can't hear it with the window down. I would be worried about my CV joint but I only drove about 15' with the boot off. The mechanic that fixed it is supposed to be pretty good and he said nothing was bent. I haven't had the car aligned since then; I probably should but it drives perfectly straight.
Anybody have an idea what it could be?

Crawlspace foundation repair
Hi all, new here. I've got a house built in 1957 with a crawlspace. I did some extensive remodeling to the house (new windows, drywall, flooring, etc) and finished up a few months ago. I've recently started getting some cracks on the interior above a couple of doors and windows. I've also got some matching cracks on the exterior brick veneer in the problem areas.
I've had 4 foundation repair companies come take a look so far.
Company A - Guy did a 10 min walk around the house and pointed out several cracks in the brick, most did not have large gaps. Measured the house and said I need $18k worth of piers...
Company B - Guy did same 10 min walk as above but said I only needed to pier 2 walls (8-10 piers, $600/ea) and mentioned that I might need some crawlspace supports in my master bedroom.
Company C - My fiance was here for this but the guy did a walk around the inside and outside and spent almost an hour under the house and discover a cracked joist under the kitchen. Said I need 14 piers at various places around the house as well as 27 pad and block supports (3 new stem walls) under the house b/c there is nothing there. Wants $10k for concrete piers and 12.5k for steel piers, both include replacing the broken joist and pad and block supports.
Company D - similar to company C but seemed like more of a mom and pop shop and were very sporadic and confusing about the types of things they would do. Said I only need 9 piers and 38 pad and block supports to the tune of $12k. They only use concrete piers.
I have one more company coming out this Friday to get another opinion. I have no experience with foundation repair, which is better, concrete or steel piers? All of these claim a lifetime warranty, so does it really matter?
BTW - I live in OKC, OK.
Both steel or concrete are Forever if installed properly...
OK, that's pretty much what I figured. I learned that the steel pier Company C installs are actually steel and concrete. Do you think it's worth the extra $1500 for these?
conc footers for steel piers/columns,,, i vote for c ! only you can decide if the addl $ 1,500 is value or not,,, think of it this way - what's your home worth if you do NOT have the work done ?
I'm definitely going to have the work done, just wanted to get more information on steel vs. concrete piers. Looks like I'm most likely gonna go with the concrete piers.
You may wish to consider hiring an independent structural engineer to examine your house, determine the cause of the problems, and recommend the best solution. So far you have invited 5 or so companies with a vested interest in their particular technique to bid, however you cannot have any assurance about which is the best solution for your problem until you get a disinterested party to evaluate.
good point, dan :thumbsup: we don't often find concrete piers under residential floors however we do find conc pads & adjustable steel colums :yes:
Excellent point Dan.
I oftentimes suggest the same thing to potential customers when I get a "vibe" that they don't quite trust or believe me when it comes to foundation repairs. Having a report from a structural engineer will also give the 5 contractors a clear, concise scope of work to bid on, and their numbers shouldn't seem nearly as eratic as what you're seeing now. Money well spent IMO.
jo, why aren't you in vegas ?
attending world of conc rather'n hanging out here ?
I wish, but it's more like "preparing for tax season, plowing snow, and changing diapers.........."
Thanks for the advice. I'll call around and get a structural engineer out asap. Do they charge a flat fee or by the hour? How much is a reasonable price for something like this?
new biz consolidation ?,,, now its ' jomama's conc, tax prep, & day care svce ' ? the only diaper svce we offer is to grandkids :yes: did have more than our share of snow recently, tho,,, think atl has 10 plows from the looks of how dot handled the dump :censored: being stranded in our development for 3 days can prove stimulating at times :furious:
Now you're really dating yourself pal...... this is my first born...........
I was surprised to read that your area got 10" of snow here. That's crazy!! We've got about 25" for the season (we're way behind average) but the biggest event so far has only been about 7". Glad to hear you made it through the mess OK..........
