Large Lexicon Gesture Representation, Recognition, and Retrieval
This project involves research on computer-based recognition of ASL signs. One goal is development of a "look-up" capability for use as part of an interface with a multi-media sign language dictionary. Although printed dictionaries exist for ASL, they are generally organized according to the closest English translation of the ASL sign, since there is no written form for ASL. There are obvious problems resulting from the fact that there is no one-to-one correspondence between English words and ASL signs (imagine if you could only get information about French words--or words in any other spoken language--by looking them up under their English translations). This also poses an insurmountable difficulty for language learners, a kind of Catch-22: you can only look up a sign you don't know in the dictionary if you already know what it means.
The proposed system will enable a signer either to select a video clip corresponding to an unknown sign, or to produce a sign in front of a camera, for look-up. The computer will then find the best match(es) from its inventory of thousands of ASL signs. Knowledge about linguistic constraints of sign production will be used to improve recognition. Fundamental theoretical challenges include the large scale of the learning task (thousands of different sign classes), the availability of very few training examples per class, and the need for efficient retrieval of gesture/motion patterns in a large database.
In addition to use with multi-media dictionaries, this technology will have many other applications, e.g., for computer-based automatic translation. Future aspirations include development of a "sloogle," to do google-like searches through streams of ASL video.

Rhythm Production and Perception Workshop 2015
RPPW is a biannual summit that seeks to explore innovative means of understanding rhythm production and perception. Rhythms are paramount in human functioning. Walking, talking, music performance – they all have rhythmic components. As of today the neurobiology of the underlying timing is not well understood, let alone the corresponding cognitive processes. The 15th edition of RPPW is therefore devoted to integrating various disciplines like biophysics, neurophysiology, cognitive psychology, and the science of music.

Bookstore | FICTION
Igbo land isn't Biafra; Biafra wasn't Igbo land.
Some Igbos seemed intellectually very coarse; excessively dull.
"Why, Sir, Sherry is dull, naturally dull; but it must have taken him a great deal of pains to become what we now see him. Such an excess of stupidity, Sir, is not in Nature." Dr Samuel Johnson
"There is Godu oo, chie, chie. Kano Nnamdi, KFC chef, you waka come from London. Nnamdi, are you an anarchist or a 'Faka?'" Dame Patience Faka Goodluck Jonathan paraphrased.
Before secession some Igbos must make sure that there is plenty of grub, and not lament blockade later; necessity may suspend the law, again.
"You can always tell an old soldier by the inside of his holsters and cartridge boxes. The young ones carry pistols and cartridges; the old ones, grub." George Bernard Shaw
"Every true Biafran must love Biafra, must have faith in Biafra and its people, and must strive for its greater unity. He must find his salvation here in Biafra. He must be prepared to work for Biafra, to die for Biafra. He must be prepared to defend the sovereignty of Biafra wherever and by whomsoever it is challenged." Comical Col. Emeka Ojukwu
Comical Col. Emeka Ojukwu neither died for Biafra nor in Biafra; did he lie to cretins (not all)?
"Beware that you do not despise a single one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels are always in the presence of my heavenly father." The Good Shepherd
The best interest of children should be at the forefront of all actions of all governments, and their foreseeable future needs should be the cornerstone of all their plans.
Reasoning and vision are unbounded; if the Good Shepherd's is infinite, He must be who He says He is.

Laser pumping and magneto-optical rotation of the light polarization plane in a cell with an antirelaxation coating of the walls: I. Statement and solution of the problem
- Received:
A general solution of the Boltzmann kinetic equations for the atomic density matrix in a long cylindrical cell with an antirelaxation coating of the walls under conditions of laser pumping in a magnetic field is obtained. The theory involves only one relaxation parameter—the coefficient Krefl of the diffusion reflection of polarized atoms from the cell walls. The solution consists of two terms. The first term is proportional to Krefl and describes the contribution to the atomic polarization made by multiple passages of atoms through the pumping beam after their reflection from the walls with the antirelaxation coating. The second term does not depend on Krefl and describes the polarization formed during a single passage of atoms through the pumping beam. This solution allows one to calculate the Stokes parameters for the pumping beam transmitted through the cell that are measured in experiments on magneto-optical rotation of the light polarization plane.

Birds and Bees
I am a single mother with an 18 year-old son who is having his first serious relationship with another girl. She is the same age.
I've tried to talk to him about s**, but he freaks out when I bring up the topic. He always changes the subject. The issue that I'm having is that I know he is having a sexual relationship with his girlfriend, because I have found used condoms in the garbage in his room. I work really long hours, so they evidently have been getting it on at the house while I'm working. I'd prefer that he waited until he was married before having s**, but at least he is using protection.
I'm pretty conservative, but try to be realistic too. I'm about ready to tell him to stop having s** in the house, because I feel it is inappropriate, but then again I don't want them doing it somewhere more public, either. Any advice would be welcome.

Tel son to get gf 2 suck and put it up her arsh and it b ok
U cant tell him what to do when u couldnt keep ur own knickers on
Where did u ride when young why didnt u use protection dont lecture anyone
At least hes being more responsible than his mother
When i was his age i was mad for c***
Ur a single mum conservative u must hav had an immaculate conception
Ur single mother would lik son wait til married joke ye i gues its true what they say none so pure as the reformed w****
I know i was a s*** but i dont want son to b stuck with brat like i was
You're wrong to try and interfere with that. Especially as he is of legal age. Take solace and pride in the fact that he feels safe enough to do it at home and that you raised him smart enough to use protection and is steady with one girl instead of being a man w****.
He wants p**** i dont c why it matters if he f**** at home r away

The hottest new trend for shedding extra pounds quickly includes one surprising no: no stepping on the scale.
"So many people are so obsessed with that number on the scale," said Melissa Hartwig, co-founder of Whole30. "The scale will blind you to all the amazing progress that you're seeing in your medical condition."
Hartwig and her husband, Dallas Hartwig, both certified sports nutritionists, created the Whole30 program in 2009 and co-authored the New York Times bestselling book "It Starts With Food." The Whole30 program, they say, is aimed at resetting your body's reaction to food.
On the 30-day plan, gone are any food that cannot be hunted or gathered, mimicking the Paleo diet or caveman diets that exclude post-agricultural foods. So, gone are grains like rice and wheat, beans, soy, dairy, alcohol, sugar and processed foods. What you can eat on the plan are fruits, vegetables and protein.
The key to the diet is slowly reintroducing the banned foods to your diet to see how your body reacts to gluten or dairy or sugar.

Swifty Serve Teeters on Bankruptcy
Chain axes personnel, shutters stores; Hamner and Rogers reportedly out, source says.
DURHAM, N.C. -- Created as a muscular roll-up company to consolidate a fragmented southeastern convenience market, Swifty Serve Corp. now appears headed to bankruptcy court, Convenience Store News has learned.
"We are looking for cooperation and we're all on the same team, whether it's with our lenders or our vendors," said Jeff Hamill, who took over as the chain's president and CEO in April.
In an exclusive interview with CSNews Online, Hamill confirmed the company's struggles to cut significant debt. Swifty Serve, which ranked 24th with 520 stores in the Convenience Store News list of Top 50 Companies just a few months ago, has shuttered 70 units in recent weeks to drop its store count to 450.
Additionally, Hamill said, the chain has closed several administrative offices and eliminated about 15 percent in administrative payroll.
According to three sources familiar with the company's operations, Swifty Serve is expected to file for bankruptcy within the next few days. Additionally, the sources said distribution to Swifty Serve stores by McLane Co. Inc., its primary grocery distributor, and Citgo Petroleum Corp., its largest fuel partner, has been disrupted.
Representatives from McLane declined to comment on the company's relationship with Swifty Serve. Citgo representatives in the Southeast that handle the Swifty Serve account could not be reached for comment.
Asked whether the company has filed for Chapter 11, Hamill said. "We have not filed bankruptcy. That's just a rumor."
He did say that the company is negotiating with its primary lender, GE Capital, and its inventory financier CIT. "It's not a secret that gas and CPGs (consumer packaged goods) are down. We've had a couple of efficiency moves where we have consolidated some markets.
"When I came here from 7-Eleven, this organization had some hierarchy and needed to get closer to the store level," he added. "We've made some good moves. There is a lot of money saved, about a 10 to 15-percent reduction in overhead."
However, one source described Swifty's financial situation as much more serious. "They've already shut down administrative offices in Tallahassee, Atlanta and New Orleans." The same source added that Swifty's co-chairmen, Clay Hamner and Wayne Rogers, are no longer with the company, though that has not been confirmed. Calls to Hamner were not returned Tuesday morning.
The transformation from a once dynamic chain echoes the pattern of similar companies that have crashed in a dismal economy. The list includes chains such as Convenience USA, Fas Mart Convenience Stores Inc., Dairy Mart Convenience Stores Inc. and Duke & Long Distributing.
Only a few years ago, Swifty Serve stood among the most aggressive merger-and-acquisition companies in the c-store sector, gobbling up such notable outfits as Country Cupboard, Time Saver and Pepco.
Heavily leveraged, Swifty relied on a business model driven by high-margin gasoline and, to a lesser extent, in-store sales of high-profit items like fountain beverages and pre-packaged foodservice.
But increased competition from hypermarkets and other c-store chains, along with tighter lending, have bludgeoned petroleum margins and undercut in-store sales. While greater outside competition has taken a toll on the entire c-store industry, it has decimated companies dependent on fuel.

March 2-8: Including Midnight in Parisby Fiona Rae
A Woody Allen showcase begins on Rialto, and one of the best remakes ever.
The Game Plan (TV2, 8.30pm). First, Arnie in a kindergarten, then Vin Diesel looking after five kids, and now this. Oh, the humanity. And the terrible, terrible movies. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a party-boy bachelor football player whose eight-year-old daughter turns up. Heartwarming Disneyfied lessons ensue. (2007) **
And When Did You Last See Your Father? (Choice TV, 8.30pm). An "intelligent and heartfelt film", said the Guardian's Peter Bradshaw about this adaptation of novelist and critic Blake Morrison's 1993 memoir. It centres around a painful visit to a dying father – Jim Broadbent again – which brings back memories good and bad for a son (Colin Firth). Intelligent, moving and thankfully unsentimental. (2007) ****
Gone with the Wind (TCM, Sky 024, 8.30pm). Jimmy Carter recalled the 1939 film premiere of Gone with the Wind in Atlanta as the biggest event to happen in the South in his lifetime. The film was a huge hit even then; it won eight Oscars, and also ran for four years in London, cheering up wartime audiences. This is the golden age of Hollywood, so sit back and enjoy the ride. (1939) *****
Midnight in Paris (Rialto, Sky 025, 8.30pm). Rialto's Woody Allen showcase begins with the movie widely regarded as his real return to form, after Vicky Cristina Barcelona turned out to be a fake return to form. It's a light and frothy contrivance in which a disillusioned writer (Owen Wilson) is magically transported to 1920s Paris and starts hanging with F Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Cole Porter, Pablo Picasso, Gertrude Stein, Man Ray, Salvador Dali … it's a writer's – or perhaps a film director's – fantasy, but also Allen's way of having some fun with nostalgia. (NB: The showcase continues with the classic Manhattan on Sunday.) (2011) ****
Whiteout (TV2, 10.45pm). A critically acclaimed graphic novel is turned into a critically panned movie. Fanboy favourite Kate Beckinsale plays a US marshal investigating a murder in Antarctica. A couple of movies have utilised the spookiness of either end of the planet – Insomnia springs to mind – but this isn't one of them. (2009) **½
Happy-Go-Lucky (TV1, 11.30pm). It's not often that social realist Mike Leigh makes a comedy, but his 17th film features a wonderful, light performance from Sally Hawkins as Poppy, an almost annoyingly cheerful teacher in London. She's so happy, you're waiting for the bomb to drop, and it seems as if her psychotic driving instructor, Eddie Marsan (Vera Drake), will be the one to pop her balloon. It's a beautiful characterisation that builds into a whole person, and you gradually realise Leigh is not blindly saying "Don't worry, be happy", but suggesting we engage, like Poppy, with an imperfect world. (2008) ****
National Treasure: The Book of Secrets (TV2, 8.30pm). The history-lesson-as-action-movie gets another go-around. Surprisingly, this sequel to National Treasure out-grossed its predecessor. Nicolas Cage again plays treasure hunter Ben Gates and the plot is something to do with missing pages from John Wilkes Booth's diary. It's all rubbish (an "absurd and fevered plot", said Roger Ebert), but a romp nonetheless. (2007) **½
Fast Five (TV3, 8.30pm). The Fast and Furious franchise basically does what it says on the tin: high-speed car chases, preposterous stunts that laugh in the face of physics, muscly macho guys and super-sexy girls. Director Justin Lin (who has also directed the Modern Warfare episode of TV series Community) seems to have a knack for it, and Fast Five is his third F&F (and he's at the helm of the upcoming Fast & Furious 6, too). Most of the action takes place in Rio de Janeiro, where a druglord, the local cops, DEA agents and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are after Vin Diesel and his crew. (2011) ***
Away from Her (Maori, 8.30pm). Canadian actor Sarah Polley is so well-respected that she was able to gather the talents of two lovely screen legends, Julie Christie and Olympia Dukakis, for her debut feature, Away from Her. That's not the only remarkable thing about this movie. Most 28-year-olds would be making some clever, possibly drug-referenced outing about life among the twentysomethings, but Polley is not most 28-year-olds. Based on a short story by Alice Munro, Away from Her is about a sixtysomething couple facing the awful destruction of Alzheimer's. Do not think, however, that this is a disease movie; it is a complicated story of love and heartbreak. (2006) ****
The Nutty Professor (Four, 8.30pm). Eddie Murphy dons the fat suit for the first time in a new version of a 1963 Jerry Lewis comedy and inadvertently causes a genre. Big Momma's House, Shallow Hal, Norbit … damn you, Murphy! (1996) **
What a Girl Wants (TV2, 8.00pm). Friday night fluff for the pre-teen staying-in crowd. It's an updated version of 1958's The Reluctant Debutante, but instead of Sandra Dee and Rex Harrison, Amanda Bynes is the long-lost daughter and Colin Firth is the dad whom she shocks out of his stuffy British ways with her bubbly American personality. There is a cliché about every 30 seconds, but your tween probably won't notice once the Cute Boy (Oliver James) comes on the scene. (2003) **½
Paycheck (Four, 8.30pm). Another elegant failure from John Woo, whose trademarks, including two Mexican standoffs, a whizzy motorcycle chase and a dove, are here, even as he misses the potential of the original Philip K Dick story. Ben Affleck plays a computer genius whose memory is wiped after a top-secret job. He then finds himself in all sorts of trouble with no idea why, which is where the movie turns into lumpen action nonsense. It is interesting to see how far Affleck has reinvented his own career, however – he won a Razzie award for the movie, and the Guardian's Peter Bradshaw joked in his review that "the search for Ben Affleck's career was abandoned last night". Just look at him now. (2004) **
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (MGM, Sky 023, 8.30pm). Widely regarded as one of the best remakes ever (it "may be the best film of its kind ever made", said Pauline Kael). Philip Kaufman, who went on to direct The Unbearable Lightness of Being and the under-rated Quills, gives paranoia a new look with this update of the 1956 movie – there are reflections, odd details, weird rays of light; everything is slightly off. Leonard Nimoy is just plain strange. In a post-Watergate America, Kaufman's themes are alienation and individuality rather than the 50s fear of communism (or McCarthyism, take your pick) as Donald Sutherland and Brooke Adams begin to realise more and more people are being turned into emotionless drones. (1978) ****½

After I gave a talk for the 70th anniversary of Bonhoeffer's death, I got a letter saying he's been drained of meaning. Here's what I replied.
ecumenical movement
Growing up as a cradle Presbyterian and a preacher's kid, Presbyterianism was my sociocultural world. When my father got angry with me or my sister, he would often preface his remarks with the exasperated endearment, "Child of the covenant!"
"Ecumenical leaders of the 1960s took a series of risks," says historian David Hollinger, "asking their constituency to follow them in directions that many resisted."

Peer-to-Peer, cooperative, FOSS....commons based football clubs are the future argues Andy Hewitt the Green Party Executive campaigns officer and member of Green Left
Swansea have, over the past 25 years or so nearly gone under a few times, largely due to wild excesses of spending, and financial mismanagement by various speculators who have taken control of the club for their own ends.
In 2001 the community marched in their thousands through the city calling to save the club which was being run into the ground by such a speculator, eventually the campaign was won with a group of local business people and more importantly fans taking control of the club and bringing it back into the community. They have vowed to run the club within its means as they recognise the importance of the club to so many people in the city.
A Supporters Trust was established, which now has a 20% stake in the club.
The fall from grace was almost complete 2 years later when the club fought off relegation from the League with an emotional win over Hull in the last game of the season, a game which included a hat-trick by striker James Thomas, a local boy who has a certain legendary status amongst supporters now.
His career was soon to end early due to injury, being a lower league player retiring before the age of 30 I imagine that he was not so "set up for life" as a modern Premier league footballer will be when they are pensioned off.
When football became a commodity, a rich man's plaything (owning a football club is like what owning a racehorse used to be) and predicated upon market forces, the vast inequality of wealth and resources between the small elite at the top, and the rest, has expanded almost exponentially.
Working Class people who relied on their club and as part of the community have in many cases been priced out of the game. In many ways the game serves as a metaphor for the past 30 years politically and economically.
Swansea have tried to do things a bit differently, being run by fans whose priority is keeping the club alive for the supporters and the community.
The directors of the club all work voluntarily and take no money from the club.
In cooperation with the local council a new stadium was built, shared with the regional rugby club, but largely still owned by the community not the clubs.
A new academy and training facilities are being built to nurture young local talent, and will be shared with the community.
The club has risen up the leagues playing a quality of football which would grace the highest level.
Although part of me would love to see them playing in the Premier League, if that came with the price of sacrificing everything over the altar of football boom and bust for the sake of a small grasp of 'success', then no thanks (political parties take note?)
The Swans have provided a good model for other clubs to follow to keep them alive in their communities and survive in the cutthroat capitalisation and commodification of football, although it could go further.
How about football clubs being run as true fans/ workers' cooperatives?
Would it give a better platform for tackling other social problems which attach themselves to football as a reflection of the times: racism, homophobia, violence, inequality? How about locally produced kit so that corporations arent exploiting kids in the global south to make boots and footballs? Fantasy football maybe

Energy poverty is one of the major world issues. It restricts growth, development and scarcity of energy debilitates all the indicators of prosperity. Access: Wind aim to combat this with their technology for open-source wind turbines that can be made in-situ by anyone, once they've had some training! Currently testing at Yale University and piloted in Kenya, it establishes a bottom line of efficiency by offering wind power that six times cheaper than comparable micro wind turbines. The design also works without expensive and hard to
acquire components like resins and magnets, found in every other wind turbine. It proves to be ingenious in its ergonomic design, allowing for easy installation that requires little training. This is inspired innovation! Read more about the project here:

I have just complied 11 years of my creative writing In a 90 page manuscript. Now for serious editing, in the meantime, here is an extract from this poem: Leave The Window Open
I left the room untidy, and as I closed the door behind me
I stopped mid-calf into the hallway, curious
Thinking of things discovered by accident
Occupied thus knocking elbow against doorframe
Twinge-shot fingers shaking off the numb
Now left behind me one of those
comfortable and prednisone online no such it for.
So glance back tilted-head and beyond shoulder
A glare of shine noticed in retina rebounded and upturned
Where I had stood there seemed to be anew
Land of flavour and twists of cotton colour I could not see enough
Extending the door further to the yawn of morning so my vision was clear
Stretching out across the sheets
Moving with the curtains
Dancing on my bed
She had somehow had crept into the room when back was turned
Madame light

"To live only for some future goal is shallow. It's the sides of the mountain that sustain life, not the top." — Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance.
What is the future going to look like when we run out of oil, global warming changes our climate beyond recognition and Tigers becomes extinct? I try not to think about it, but we all like to imagine the future, often playing out crazy technologies and the futurescapes of our lives from the confines of our minds. In the mainstream media often the world's future is based on horror and worst-case scenarios, rarely are the concepts shaped in a way that recognises into our innate ability to adapt and build our dreams. If we are to control our destiny and avert the forthcoming bleakness of a world in tragedy, then I find it imperative to search around the world in the present and discover alternatives to our damaging lifestyle culture. Tangible examples that we can both touch, enjoy and experience. This is the beginning of my search for empirical evidence of veritable sustainable lifestyles that we can access now. To inspire action and the transition to a better life in the present rather then wait for our collective fantasies, or nightmares, to play out. So join me on these discoveries and hopefully by sharing what captivates me you'll be inspired in your own way to seek further a more sustainable life with a touch of magic and dreams thrown in.
I recently found myself staring at The Mission One, developed by Mission Motors, a new breed of superbike designed to reach a top speed of over 150mph on a single electrical charge of its state of the art Lithium-ion battery. This is no dream in September 2009 the team broke the world electric land speed record reaching a heart pounding 150.059mph. Needless to say the concept of a powerful motorbike running on electricity appealed to me instantly. Ever since my first excursion on numerous gasoline bikes across the world I have nurtured an affinity with the way the machines allow the rider to experience the journey they are taking, the air rushing past you, your immediate fragility and the feeling of freedom that speeding across a landscape presents. Aside from bicycles motorbikes are the only mode of transport that have made me feel part of the environment surrounding me. My
levitra overnight without prescription to. It tan serum whats the best generic cialis bazaarint.com love very We purposes not buy dilantin no prescription brush really. Meadowsweet soft Even. Hair prescription for cipro purchase hair scrubbing.
only love affair with a form of transport.
Ever since I learnt about the state of our planet, my
desire for these machines has given way to utter disappointment that most electric bikes were so badly designed they looked like a yogurt weavers wet dream, not even close to my cup of tea. Coupled with poor speed performance and a distinct lack of road distance, I have since been repressing one of my more secret passions for propelling into the unknown on a bike that would kill me with the tiniest mistake. Pretending instead that I was satisfied with jumping on the bus or tolerating the sneezing children on the tube.
Like Marmite the design of the bike is a required taste, however, the lead designer, Yves Behar has much to be proud of, aside from his grip of superbike ergonomics, he is also the designer of the $100 laptop and in his spare time designs prints for PACT the organic underwear company. Subsequently he's just achieved my 2010 Hyper-Respect Award as a shining example of a sustainable lifestyle pioneer.
Some of the most startling characteristics of the bike are the fact it has no gears and achieves immediate torque, giving the bike powerful acceleration all the way to its top speed, as well as allowing for 70mph wheelies. A definite hurdle for my acceptance is the recharge time. Mission Motors states that the bike can recharge in 2hrs using a 240v and the adrenaline riding experience lasts for 150 miles, almost twice that of other electric motorbikes on the market. With some beautiful touches like the sustainable LED lights mimicking soviet stealth jets, regenerative braking and the aim to make the bike 100% recyclable, I cannot think of a better example of a realized vision for the new eco motorbike industry.
They release the first 50 limited edition models for the initial price of $68,995. If the price is a little too steep then hold your breath and buy one of the slightly less expensive, models to be made in 2010 but you'll have to be fast as there's only 250 of them. pre-orders can be made now from the company website: http://www.ridemission.com/

Photoelectron spectra in the region 6 to 21 eV have been measured for carbonyl halides (fluoride, chloride and bromide) and carbonyl cyanide. In a number of cases, vibrational structure coupled with the ionization process has been resolved and correlated with the known frequencies of the parent molecule. Ionization potentials have been derived for the removal of an electron from orbitals of different kinds, such as the [Note: See the image of page 13 for this formatted text]C==O$\pi $ orbital and various non-bonding molecular orbitals. The results have been correlated with other data on the chemical reactivity of these molecules.

Neil J. Salkind received his PhD from the University of Maryland in Human Development. After teaching for 35 years at the University of Kansas, he remains a professor emeritus in the department of psychology and research in education, where he continues to collaborate with colleagues and work with students. His early interests were in the area of children's cognitive development, and after research in the areas of cognitive style and (what was then known as) hyperactivity, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of North Carolina's Bush Center for Child and Family Policy. His work then changed direction to focus on child and family policy, specifically the impact of alternative forms of public support on various child and family outcomes. He has delivered more than 150 professional papers and presentations, written more than 100 trade and textbooks, and is the author of Statistics for People Who (Think They) Hate Statistics (SAGE), Theories of Human Development (SAGE), and Exploring Research (Prentice Hall).

"Keep a green tree in your heart and perhaps a singing bird will come" Chinese Proverb
The singing heart. A vulnerable space of tender beginnings, tentative vibrations, emotion and spirit desiring to be released. To send our song out freely feels like a wish, a whisper, sometimes a cage, and when fully realized a bursting forth, freedom, belonging, and cause for celebration!
I am blessed to receive people's stories of voice and singing. These stories of hurt and hope, shared often with a self-deprecating laugh or wistful, watery eyes tell of times when the person was told to "mouth the words" or to "not sing." When the love of singing overshadows the fear of others (or our own) judgement about our voices, the resulting magic can change lives.
Singing is our birthright. Our voices claim our space, speak our truth, and celebrate our wild and powerful beauty. Senseless and thoughtless voices can tear great rifts in our confidence and momentarily unseat us.
Let this be a new moment. Let the great hum of the wonder-full world around you set your lips vibrating with the gentle, internal sound that lets you know that you are here. You have a voice. You don't have to sound pretty. You don't have to be an idol. You don't even have to be good.
The same vulnerability you feel when you sing is exactly the shining thing that I love about your sound. So, add your sound to the symphony of life going on around you all the time. The ache, the hurt, the wonder, the joy … it's all there in the texture, tone, breath, timbre, and rhythm of you!
And we should be so lucky to hear you…

Stocks to watch
UBS is maintaining a "sell" recommendation on Telstra and raised its 12-month price target to $4.60 a share from $4.35 a share.
Deutsche Bank has a "buy" recommendation on property developer Stockland and a target price of $4.50 a share.
Credit Suisse said APN News and Media remains its top pick in the small cap consumer space. "APN represents good value for investors trading on 11x FY15 EPS.

The euro weakened as talks between Greece and its creditors in the region ended without an agreement on the nation's debt and bailout program.
The common currency dropped against all of its 16 major counterparts, falling most versus the New Zealand dollar and Japan's yen.
The yen advanced for a third day on Monday, its longest rally in a month, after Japan's economy minister said the conditions are favorable for the country's exit from deflation.
The BOJ is set to announce its latest policy decision on Wednesday. None of the 35 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg News February 5-10 predicted additional stimulus will be announced this week.
Money managers' net wagers on rising oil prices rose 13 per cent to 158,974 contracts in the week ended February 10, the highest since the early days of last year's oil slump on July 8, according to figures from the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The change was driven by a reduction in bearish positions, rather than fresh bullish bets.
The decline in the number of rigs drilling for oil in the US to the fewest since August 2011 is still not enough to halt production growth, according to Goldman Sachs.
The operator of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange plans to start a cash-settled wheat contract based on European benchmark milling-wheat futures traded in Paris.
United States
US markets were closed on Monday for the Presidents' Day holiday. Trading will resume on Tuesday.
Greek shares fell and pan-European indexes slipped on Monday as investors tempered their expectations that euro zone finance ministers meeting in Brussels would find common ground with Greece's new leftist government.
Investors were proved right when after the markets closed a Greek spokesman said the EU's latest offer was unacceptable. No further talks have been scheduled.
The European Central Bank has authorised emergency funding, known as Emergency Liquidity Assistance, for Greek banks but will review its policy on Wednesday in the light of the Brussels talks.
"I can't rule out that, at Wednesday's meeting, governors may decide to stop Emergency Liquidity Assistance for Greek banks to put pressure (on Greece) to reach a deal," said Vincenzo Longo, a strategist at IG in Milan.
What happened yesterday
Australian shares rallied to a fresh seven-year high as a lowering of global interest rate expectations continued to push foreign capital into the domestic market,, CBA reached another record close.

For Miami Fans, There Will Never Be Another Dwyane Wade
Dwyane Wade
Photo by George Martinez
For a generation of South Floridians, Dwyane Wade is the last connection to a long-gone period of sports fandom. When Wade arrived in Miami in 2003, there was no Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, or Instagram. "Hot takes" seemed more like the name of a food truck than a way to describe controversial sports opinions. The only analytics most of us cared about were gut judgments that told us this kid might be pretty good.
Wade's career in Miami coincided with the internet age, something that has completely changed the way we experience our sports stars. Now you follow them on and off the court. Now you feel you know them, even though you don't really know them.
That's one of the many reasons Wade's departure hurts so badly. That's how you know Wade accomplished something unique in Miami. If his departure didn't hurt, it would be just about sports. It would be just about wins and losses. It wouldn't feel like this.
Since 2003, Dwyane Wade has been a bookmark in your life. Maybe you went to his games as a kid and just graduated college. Maybe you watched him in college and now have teenagers who love him. Maybe some of your favorite memories with a family member are enjoying watching Wade and the Miami Heat together. Wherever you were in 2003 and wherever you've been since, like clockwork, Dwyane Wade was always right there every October to June.
But not anymore. At least not for your team. At least not in your town. That's hard to stomach, but it was bound to happen.
ESPN used to have this daily series Who's Now that introduced viewers to the next up-and-coming sports stars. The gist of it was to get viewers ready for the guy who might replace the guy. The realization that Dwyane Wade is now absent from the Miami sports scene for the first time since 2003 has South Floridians asking themselves: 'So who's our Who's Now?"
The answer is nobody. Not like that. Not for so many of us. Maybe there will be another D-Wade for someone younger, who is just entering that part of his sports-watching life, but not for the rest of us.
Justise Winslow might be it for your son, but for you, Winslow is more likely to be a salary-cap slot in a few years. He will have to move mountains to come close to Wade. He's Who's Now, which is both exciting and terrifying at the same time.
There is a finite amount of time a sports fan has to truly fall in love with a sports hero. There's a sweet spot in life when you're old enough to truly appreciate a sports star and his worth to your team, yet at the same time not too cynical to still experience him as a kid.
Life comes at you fast. Responsibilities change, and so does the prism through which you view a game surrounded by an ever more concerning real world.

Chances are that sports just don't seem as important to you today as they did when you first began watching D-Wade. In turn, most sports stars don't either.
That part of your life will never come back. You don't make new high-school friends. You don't enjoy sports like the kids from the movie The Sandlot at 36 years old. You could spend your entire life trying to duplicate it, but you'll never get the recipe just right. It's something in the water. It's something in your blood.
It will be some time before there's someone comparable to Dwyane Wade who comes along in Miami. Who knows when we'll have another athlete whose departure could make us feel like we're in withdrawal from a hard drug and who could make fans line up around the block to buy a jersey after he announces he's leaving.
What makes Wade so special to so many in South Florida, though, is just that: Wade will eventually be replaced on the court, but it's difficult to wrap our heads around imagining anyone who could replace him in our hearts. We don't get to fall in love for the first time again. We grew up with Dwyane Wade, and now we go our separate ways.
There will never be another Dwyane Wade, but that's our favorite part.

From 22 to 25 February 2016, a delegation composed of representatives of the Montenegrin Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Veterinary Directorate as well as farms and processing facilities travelled to Graz and Eisenstadt to learn from the Austrian experience by focusing on the implementation and control of the flexibility rules and derogations.
The main purpose was to acquaint participants with the Austrian legislative framework and guidelines including registration and approval procedures for small establishments, the flexibility provisions for traditional methods and foods with a traditional character, as well as inspections in the framework of flexibility through discussions with the competent authorities at the central and regional levels.
Moreover, the delegation examined the role of the farmers associations, discussed establishing derogations and flexibility provisions for small establishments and traditional methods and products. The group also visited a number of approved slaughterhouses, some of which included on-farm marketing facilities.
This capacity building activity was part of a larger project organized under the FAO/EBRD cooperation agreement with the support of the Luxembourg government, which seeks to contribute to the development of a more efficient and inclusive meat value chain in Montenegro.

American Transcendentalism by Kaylah K. Hubbard Well, basically, it was a group of new ideas in literature, religion, culture, and philosophy that emerged in New England in the early 19th century. (1836-1860) What is American Transcendentalism
you may ask?... It Began as a reform movement in the Unitarian Church, extending the views of William Ellery Channing
on an indwelling God and the significance of intuitive thought. Some major authors are... Ralph W. Emerson He was born in 1803 and died in 1882.
One of his great works of literature was
a book called "Nature".
It's a belief system that supports a
non-traditional appreciation of nature.
Emerson defines nature as a paradise
rather than being ruled by a superior being. Henry David Thoreau This guy was born in 1817 and died in 1862.
His most famous essay was called "On The Duty of Civil Disobedience." Sarah Maragaret Fuller One of her most famous writings
was "The Great Lawsuit." Maragaret
was born in 1810 and died in 1850. Sarah Margeret Fuller Nature Ralph Waldo Emerson He add: "If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown!" God Nature Society They view Him as there deistic or "divine watchmaker." They believed that people could accomplish
all necessary social work by doing only what they
were naturally incllined to do. Emerson's declaration IS that every man is a
genius in his own right. Laid great value of nature on the spiritual value of nature; Thoreau particuarly, is regarded as a principal forunner of the modern enviornmental movement. Transcendentalists Saw slavery as inherently wrong
because it crushed the spiritual development
of slaves. English III Honors
Mrs. Hillebrandt Man Emerson essay embodies some of the most important principles of Transcendentalism. Three of these principles are... 1 There is a human spirit that is able to intuit the fundamental truths of the universe. 2 3 All forms of being
are spiritually united. and... Albert Bierstadt Lake Tahoe, 1868 Perspectives... the end Nature Ellery Channing BRIAN STAUFFER He Wrote: The human spirit is reflected in nature. I love the universe--I love the joy
Of every living thing. Be mind the sure
Felicity, which ever shall endure;
While passion whirls the madmen, as they toy,
To hate, I would my simple being warm
In the calm pouring sun; and in that pure
And motionless silence, ever would employ
My best true powers, without a thought's annoy.
See and be glad! O high imperial race,
Dwarfing the common attitude of strength,
Learn that ye stand on an unshaken base;
Your powers will carry you to any length.
Up! earnestly feel the gentle sunset beams;
Be glad in woods, o'er sands; by marsh, or streams.
