Sweet music: What could be more intriguing to music/chocolate lovers than a baby grand piano made out of the cocoa-based stuff? It could be whatever Chef Wolfgang Wildoer`s got cooked up for the culinary finale at the Fifth Annual Alexian Brothers Medical Center Garden Ball.
Shrouded in secrecy, the dessert`s presentation is rumored to be designed ``specifically for the event,`` which is expected to draw 1,400 guests to the Hyatt Regency O`Hare`s grand ballroom April 20. It may be an even sweeter surprise than last year`s individual chocolate piano treats.

I lay in bed with one arm over my head and the other clinching my dimly lit phone. Wondering what the hell happened to the time I thought I had. The day had flown by. After countless hours of running around like crazy at work, I had lost track of time. After work I stopped at the mall to get a new jacket because El Nino came through my life like a flood. (Pun Intended) I leave the mall only to be stuck in bumper to bumper traffic because of the very storm I went to the store to get a jacket for caused accidents. I got home and immediately felt anxious. The stress was creeping up and it was at an all-time high.
So that was how I ended up here, in my bed, lying there stiff with one arm over my head and the other clinching my dimly lit iPhone. I was over it! Emphasis on OVER IT! A lump was creeping up in my throat because emails and tweets continued to come through and I didn't have the capacity to respond to anything. I was mentally and most importantly physically drained. A single tear rolled down the side of my cheek, then is when I knew I needed to pray and talk to God. I prayed long and hard. I asked for guidance. I prayed for peace internally. I knew in my heart that I was unorganized. I knew in my heart that I was having a serious case of scatter brain. I knew in my heart that I was this close *pinches thumb and index finger together closely* to losing my shit.
It was my fault. I only have me to blame. I haven't been properly prioritizing my life. I can blame it on the fact that the holiday season played a huge roll or I can blame it on the 3 day hangover after partying with the best on Christmas night. You see what I am saying? I live my life to the fullest and then I later regret it. I give myself a guilt trip for doing the things I need to do like live my life. You have to have a little fun. You have to enjoy this thing called life, but you also have to have a healthy balance so that you aren't suffocating yourself. This is when I learned a new word. Well not necessarily learned a new word, but one came to mind that meant more to me than ever before. FOCUS! I lacked focus.
I desperately needed to focus. It's amazing what focus can do in your life. It's amazing how things shift when you focus on prioritizing life opposed to dissecting it and picking it apart. If I committed to focus than I would be good. After I had this huge AHA moment, I tapped into my nightly bible plan readings. Ironically, all of them focused on focus, prioritizing life in order to use our time wisely in a way that we are satisfying God. There it was. God had just given me exactly what I asked for. He didn't bless me right away with focus, but he let me in on the tools that I needed to successfully reach this goal. So here I am, letting you all know that the word for 2016 is FOCUS!
F is for Follow Through. Don't commit to something you don't have time for. Don't make plans or schedule something, miss it and don't follow up. Don't start what you can't finish. Just follow through!
O is for optimism. You have to be optimistic. You have to know that your vision won't always be aligned with God's and that is the most important key in life. This is his masterpiece, not ours. Being optimistic about life releases the desire to be negative. Let's try that!
C is for Coffee. You'll need hell of it for your late nights and early mornings. Grab a cup and get to work!
U is for Underestimate. Don't underestimate the power of God. Never underestimate your abilities and all that you're capable of. And, certainly never underestimate the power of the Glo Up' we all have our moments and it's certain to come.
S is for Stability. S was going to be for strive, but I had to retract that. Whatever it is that we strive for in life stability should be included. You don't want anything unstable, unreliable or unpromising. You want stability in every area of your life.
And remember, regardless of what you do, always remain FOCUSED!
Be Inspired. Be Encouraged. Be Blessed.

What Is Paganism Some Thoughts
It can be alleged that latest paganism has its line in the native, pre-Christian religions of Europe but that it has evolved and tailored to the post of latest strength. It couldn't be proved definite when individuals line are and I can understand all the severe reconstructionists scribble wounding breaths.
Separate Pagans prevent to fabricate rival matter since they outline Paganism as having it's line in pre-Christian religions. Current are a hard-core few who obdurately get stuck to the dint that they are taking into consideration a boardwalk that has been handed low straight for the away from thousand duration. Utmost in spite of everything, have possession of that spoken ethnicity be the same for combination and that proving that split second line is not attainable.
Several are re-constructionists, safekeeping up among industrious and archaelogical supervision as to how best to restructure the paths of their family tree.
Others still see the acquaintances are time of a romantic nature, not a split second or reconstructed limit of ceremonies and rituals but a knot that is of the identical presentiment and earnest intention.
The return of Paganism in the U.K. parallels that observed in other Western countries, where it has been burgeoning swiftly commencing the 1950's. The 1950s in the U.K. were completely hooligan since it came to the commencement of Wicca and Druidry (which were the two religions that provided the preparatory energy to the Pagan hustle and bustle) in spite of everything you can streak the appeal in matter Pagan commencing the end of the 19th century and the hustle and bustle to store up folklore. The appeal that go to regularly at the end of the 19th century had in the occult can be regarded as thorny by individuals Pagans roundabout in the struggle to wear this boardwalk obsessed troublesomely, but it gave a context at home which populace could basis themselves discovering when today rule be recognised as Pagan or New Age paths.
According to the 2001 Ballot, Paganism is now the seventh major mysticism in the United Formal (hmso, 2003).We're awaiting the modern data of heave but pure the PaganDash hustle and bustle to make self-assured Druids, Wiccans, Heathens et al all had themselves counted sedated the Pagan rank it seems birth that this soul be veritable.
Paganism is a mysticism of medley. Pagans brook the Promise to be apparent at home Type and recognise spirit as plunder go to regularly forms, systematically result idiom in Goddesses, Gods, Landwights and other types of Go off or Transport. Current are go to regularly paths and ethnicity at home Paganism, period it's systematically no-frills to outline them to populace sovereign of Paganism as time seeing that the "denominations" of other faiths this can extremely be entirely artificial. Following all, among our assemble of paths, some worshipping rival Goddesses and Gods from relatively rival pantheons, some loyal to one specific spirit or camaraderie of deities, some worshipping Type or the Spirit Man and others having a optional extra atheist produced - seeing gods as time power of the poetry of nature, here sometimes cartel to be optional extra differences in our paths than similarities.
One of the differences that is sometimes seen as time key amid Paganism and the optional extra manhood UK faiths (based almost the Abrahamic religions) is that Goddesses are worshipped and systematically said to be of specific moment at home definite paths (for seminar Dianic Wicca, named for the Idol pure specific deification). Current are untrustworthy reasons which wrench populace to Paganism and the Goddesses wear unquestionably drawn definite kinds of feminist to the furrow. As a grasp in the company of specific groups the feminism and female holiness which can be manner at home Paganism is pure a colossal grasp of magnitude. This is not to chance other paths manner at home Paganism which wear a dualistic likeness to them.
The smooth I'm forcible to make about Paganism is it encompasses a lot of paths; some are frostily reasonable, among devotion, commencement and ordination, others are conversational and stop for somebody, period no underneath controlling in bringing earnest handle and attunement. Numb the duration in which Paganism has been a inhabit hustle and bustle rival parts of the coarse wear been emphasised depending on the media, the populace roundabout and when was hooligan at the characterize.
Secret latest Paganism here are individuals who are ecstatic to set the limits of themselves as Pagans, time others identify themselves among a specific boardwalk at home Paganism such as Druidry, Heathenry, Asatru, Wicca, Shamanism, be attracted to of Isis, Witchcraft or Women's Polish. Several who affirm individuals specific paths no longer expectation to identify as Pagan in the function of of repentant experiences or a castle in the sky to emergency supply themselves from the Pagan Fight as a coarse.
Utmost pagans see nature as consecrated and brook the innocent cycles of outset, escalation and casual observed in the terrain almost us as hauling in detail earnest meanings. This is particularly accurate in the mysticism of Wicca, which has at it's centre a traverse of office festivals unambiguous as The Wheel of the See. Wicca was an particularly extreme boardwalk popular the 20th century revitalization of Paganism on the inhabit conciousness.
In Wicca material beings are seen as power of nature, natural fiber at home the colossal web of strength scheduled among other natural world, plants, bravery, foliage and everything in addition that is of this Home. This is a common tale said in go to regularly pagan paths and go to regularly populace see it as a key way to set the limits of and be in touch with all Pagans.
Paganism includes go to regularly Nature-venerating paths and latest Pagans are systematically at the organize of ecoawareness. If you see material beings, among their powers of mind and resistance, as a power of Type as well as it is not so colossal a skip to feel a colossal faith for maintaining the adjust of the innocent terrain. Regional deities and the "self-esteem of mark" (sometimes unambiguous as landwights) are commonly recognized in Paganism, a power of development compelling intimates among these wights is systematically maintainence of the found in which they live.
Contest breeze to Paganism in a assemble of ways. Several breeze to it fine hair flat as a pancake the tradition of our family tree. Several fine hair experiencing a ambiance of the "Promise in Type" - a presentiment that earnest martial are in the plants, forests, fields and hills. Others come out at a Pagan importance fine hair an fascinate that their halfway point reply to the portend is fine hair Pagan deities.
As a mysticism which expresses medley and has undergone go to regularly changes in its craving background, Paganism good wishes all office paths as manifestations of the material compel to religious studies. Pagans discharge it for arranged that rival populace soul preference the portend in rival ways, and are thus incredibly tolerant of other office viewpoint.

Merle Kittridge: Shep, you just never learned to spell.
Merle Kittridge: Are you trying to say you're... *jilting* me?

Biographical History
Penner grew up in the Mennonite Brethren (MB) congregation in Vineland, Ontario and was an active member of many other congregations as his life took him to many parts of Canada. He studied at Eden Christian College, Beamsville High School, Vineland Mennonite Brethren (MB) Bible School, Prairie Bible Institute, St. Catharines Collegiate Institute, MB Bible College (Bachelor in Religious Education and Bachelor in Theology), University of Western Ontario (Bachelor of Arts), and McMaster University (Masters degree and PhD in History).

In retirement, he also taught history at Lithuania Christian College, Klaipeda (the former Memel) briefly in 1997.
Penner wrote and published throughout his life. He was a frequent contributor of reviews and articles to MB and inter-Mennonite papers and other journals. He published various books: Reaching the Otherwise Unreached (1959), Robert Needham Cust: A Personal Biography (1987), The Patronage Bureaucracy in North India: the Robert M. Bird and James Thomason School, 1820-1870 (1986), No Longer at Arm's Length: MB Church Planting in Canada - 1883 to 1983 (1987), The Chignecto 'Connexion': The History of Sackville Methodist/United Church, 1772 to 1990 (1990), Russians, North Americans, and Telugus: The MB Mission in India, 1885-1975 (1997); and edited two other books on British India, 1983, 1984.

Every year on the same night, Regina White and Tyler Harrison relive the past. They leave their everyday lives behind - jobs, home, kids - and check into the same two rooms in the Piedmont Hotel where they first met years ago: #510 and #512, with a connecting door.
Rumors fly among the staff, and newlywed receptionist Elizabeth thinks she's got the situation all figured out—but...
* * *
"Looks can be deceiving in this adorable, sweet and romantic story of love shared."
–Dru's Book Musings
The woman in room 512 got to the hotel first.
Elizabeth was behind the front desk, and at first, she didn't know who the new guest was. She'd been at the Piedmont for less than six months, and hadn't seen Mrs. 512 before.
She'd heard rumors, though. A lot of them, lately. Those who had been working here longer said Mrs. 512 had been coming to the Piedmont for seven or eight years. Always on the same night. Always to the same room.
As had he. Mister 510.
Elizabeth rolled her eyes. Privately, of course. The Piedmont had too much class for anything else, and Mrs. Dugan the front desk manager was always getting on her for inappropriate behavior. But really, who did they think they were kidding? Every year like clockwork, two separate reservations, two different names, always the same two rooms with a connecting door between. And just look at the woman's hand. If that thin white line at the base of the third finger wasn't from a missing wedding band, Elizabeth was a mongoose.

My husband, daughter and I rented unit B-301 at this resort back in Sept. 2012 from a private owner through the REMAX management company. Finally, our vacation arrived on June 16, 2013! We live in GA and were flying through Dallas to Honolulu and then took an island hopper to Lihue. After a VERY long travel day, we finally got our rental car and arrived at Waipouli Beach Resort. We had no trouble locating building "B", but quickly became rather confused when we couldn't locate an elevator in that building. No one told us that building "B" does not have its own elevator. We finally figured out that we had to go into building "C" and use that elevator, go to the third floor and go through the connecting hallway to building "B". We finally got into our room (The management company had already emailed us the entrance code to the unit.) at about 9:30 PM or so, local time. Upon entering the unit and exploring our home-away-from-home, we discovered that the carpet in the doorway to the master bedroom was soaking wet! At this point, we had been awake for over 24 hours and were exhausted. So, we decided to just crash and deal with it in the morning.
The following morning (Mon., June 17th), we notified Remax of the situation, thinking that they would send someone with a shopvac to dry out the carpet. In the meantime, we went out for breakfast and the grocery store and headed out to do some sightseeing. While we were on the north shore seeing the sights there, Cyrila, from Remax, called to say that the inspection of our unit showed that the AC condensation drip pan had malfunctioned; causing the water to overflow onto the carpet in the MBR. She said that it would take several days to do the repairs and dry out the carpet and that the unit would be unlivable during that time. So, we were going to have to be moved to another unit (C-301)...but, only until Friday when we would have to move back to unit B-301 because there were other tenants scheduled to arrive in C-301 that day and the repairs in our unit would be completed by then. Well, that meant that we would have to take time out of our Hawaiian vacation to move twice! When we explained that we really preferred not to have to move twice, she offered us a rental home in Princeville that we could use for the whole week and only have to move once. So, we went to look at it to see if that would be an acceptable alternative. The house was beautiful and located on a golf course and within walking distance of the Hanalei Resort, but there were no amenities like those offered at Waipouli Beach Resort. Also, Princeville is not centrally located to the rest of the island. So, we told her that, even though we did not want to move twice, we preferred to be centrally located and enjoy the amenities of the resort. So, in the end, even though we had the added hassle of having to move twice, we stayed at the Waipouli Beach Resort and moved between units B-301 and C-301. Cyrila and I texted numerous times during the time that we were on Kauai and she was very understanding and accommodating. She also told us that we would be refunded one night's rent and given a $75 credit at the Oasis restaurant on the Waipoulid Beach Resort premesis! Although we never met in person and there were a couple of tense moments, Cyrila was extremely professional and sympathetic to our situation. In the end, we feel that we were duly compensated for the inconvenience of our situation.
Now....as for the resort, itself....
It was gorgeous! The grounds were beautifully landscaped and maintained. The pool area is huge and rather unconventional in its design. It snaked around through the landscaping and included waterfalls, slides and a small grotto. There were two jacuzzis with sand bottoms and a small children's pool; also with a sand bottom. The lobby opens out to a large koi pond and the pool area. There is a small building with exercise equipment and several areas with grills for cookouts. As noted earlier, there is a restaurant, Oasis, between the pool area and the beach. The beach is very pretty, but not really swimable, as the strong surf and rocks near the shore make it too dangerous. We did observe a monk seal one day, though, who had come up to rest/sleep. If you get up early enough, you can go down to the beach and see a beautiful sunrise, too.
As for the units...as I said, we stayed in two (B-301 and C-301) which were identical in their layout. The only difference was the decor and furnishings, which, I'm sure, was a reflection of the owner's taste. Both units were very comfortable and adequately furnished. The kitchens have industrial-sized, high-end appliances. Both of our units had parking lot views, which was not a problem for us since we didn't spend that much time inside.
Aside from our issues, needed repairs and moving, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Waipouli Beach Resort and we would definitely stay there again and recommend it. It has a great central location and is close to shopping and restaurants in the Kapa'a area. We even walked to dinner a couple of nights! Drive time is about the same to both the north and south shores. We ended up making two trips in each direction; one sightseeing and one swim/snorkeling trip to each one. This was mine and husband's fourth trip to Hawai'i and our third to Kaua'i (It was our daughter's first trip to Hawai'i.). We have stayed in Princeville on the north shore and Lawai Beach on the south shore and now in Kapa'a on the east coast. Waipouli Beach Resort is definitely the most convenient if you are trying to see the entire island.

In a recent essay for a religion survey course I wrote that "If there are good teachings or moral ideas in the Bible or in the words of Jesus, they are good independent of their source and to rely on someone else's teaching for your own morality is to be amoral." My professor wrote a comment on my essay asking: "…what about when people motivated by religious ethics do really good things like the Civil Rights Movement? …are they amoral even if their cause is good?" By way of responding, I'd like to consider the classic "trolley problem" of ethics. Here's the Wikipedia summary of this thought experiment:
There is a runaway trolley barreling down the railway tracks. Ahead, on the tracks, there are five people tied up and unable to move. The trolley is headed straight for them. You are standing some distance off in the train yard, next to a lever. If you pull this lever, the trolley will switch to a different set of tracks. However, you notice that there is one person on the side track. You do not have the ability to operate the lever in a way that would cause the trolley to derail without loss of life (for example, holding the lever in an intermediate position so that the trolley goes between the two sets of tracks, or pulling the lever after the front wheels pass the switch, but before the rear wheels do). You have two options: (1) Do nothing, and the trolley kills the five people on the main track. (2) Pull the lever, diverting the trolley onto the side track where it will kill one person. Which is the correct choice?
Like many thought experiments in ethics, there is no "right" answer; both are pretty terrible options. The important part of the trolley problem is that the subject is forced to make a moral decision and is subsequently forced to examine the moral reasoning process that led them to that decision. For example, many would say that saving as many lives as possible is the most moral decision, others might say that the active participation in the death of the individual by pulling the lever implicates them in a murder. Both are valid concerns given the situation.
But what if a person (ridiculously) states that they didn't pull the lever because their religion prohibits pulling levers or tampering with trolleys? Can it really be said that they made a moral decision regarding the situation? My argument is that they have not. Their moral decision took place much earlier when they decided that the anti-lever-pulling religion was good and worth obeying. They have, in essence, prejudged all future situations by accepting the proclamations of their religion. In relation to the situation, this is not morality; this is amoral. The same is true when religious teachings happen to coincide with good moral conduct.
Some will say (as Reza Aslan has been lately) that most religious people don't really use their religion to prejudge this way, but rather support their personal moral reasoning with their scripture or faith. While I would argue that "most" is a hard modifier to substantiate, I'm certainly willing to agree that some religious people do this. My rebuttal would be that this is outside the scope of my original claim because these people aren't making their moral decisions on the basis of their religion. Helping others because it's a morally good thing to do is different than helping others because your religion says it's a morally good thing to do.
Further, there are negative results of this process. It separates adherents from the consequences of their moral decisions and gives them a culturally sanctioned scapegoat. It continues to place these texts in a place of prominence which validates those who do apply their decrees regardless of the harmful results, if only in their own eyes. It discredits the moral reasoning of religious people, which usually comes from their genuinely compassionate and empathetic nature, by giving the religion all the credit. That's probably the one that gets to me the most. I've often heard Christians claim that if they didn't have Jesus they would just be the most awful, murderous people you could imagine. I said it myself when I was a Christian. I still haven't murdered anyone. For what it's worth, since my deconversion I've extended my non-murdering to all animal life by becoming vegan. Turns out Jesus wasn't repressing any murderous desires; I just don't have any.
There is no such thing as religious morality; there is only morality.

The afternoon dry fly hatches on sunny afternoons have been remarkable. These sunny afternoons are filled with fluttering caddis, which equates to a trout buffet. We are catching rainbows, browns and brooks that are over 20 inches on most trips. The afternoon fishing on a dry fly has been nothing short of spectacular. We still have some last minute availability, but weekends are filling up fast. Book your summer float trips early… These will be gone before you know it. We pride ourselves on quality guides, and thats the reason that so many days are filled.
Our water on the Linville River has been amazing and is loaded with monster trout often eager to take a big dry.
Our water on the North Toe has been stocked and should provide amazing fishing opportunities to beginner anglers with a chance to catch some really big fish.
The private wild water is on fire, and fishing will be awesome on the dry fly, regardless of conditions.
Tenkara fishing in North Carolina continues to grow leaps and bounds each season. Many seasoned anglers are giving it a try, and pushing the limits of the sport with us. We are landing massive fish on tenkara rods that are turning heads.

Interesting, if true. In opening hostage negotiations over the fate of Section 179 coupling, Iowa Senate Majority Leader Gronstal may have hinted at a "Main Street vs. Walnut Street" approach. From wcfcourier.com:
If the choice is between offering tax relief to a limited number of manufacturers "or taking care of 30,000 farmers, 25,000 small businesses," Gronstal said he would "gravitate more toward the 50,000 or 60,000 effort to help those folks (rather) than something that is much more narrow in terms of its impact."
I say "may have" because I think he is hinting at trying to get the Governor to reverse its regulatory change to sales tax rules on manufacturing supplies.
By "Walnut Street," I refer to downtown Des Moines, where several of the big law/lobbying firms in town have their offices (Nothing against Walnut Street — that's where Tax Update World Headquarters is located, too). Whether or not Sen. Gronstal realizes it, the coupling issue is ultimately about whether to benefit a handful of insiders and big companies benefitting from special tax benefits, or whether to further the interests of the rest of the taxpayers who pay for any special deals.
The revenue cost from adopting the $500,000 Section 179 limit for Iowa is estimated around $90 million. Eight taxpayers by themselves claimed $35 million in research credits in 2015, of which around $30 million were paid to the companies in cash because they exceed the claimants income tax bills. Just last week the state promised $15 million to DuPont as a location incentive. The potential loss of Section 179 deduction is making its many beneficiaries suspicious of the multi-million dollar "economic development" tax credits that benefit relatively few insiders with lobbyists.
While Senator Gronstal will insist on concessions for passing the bill, I expect he will reach a deal without insisting on his full pound of flesh. More than anything else, he wants to remain Majority Leader, with control over whether legislation lives or dies. He has only 26-24 control of the Senate. If he is perceived as blocking coupling, it may be just enough to tip a close race or two against his party. I think his reference to the "50,000 or 60,000" shows he's aware of this. That's why I think an agreement to couple with the federal limit is now likely in the next two or three weeks. I have no insider information to confirm this guess.

Yes he can! Trump says he can't release tax returns because he's being audited (marketwatch.com). That's not true, of course. While it's illegal to release someone else's returns without their permission, you can make your own returns public any time. The IRS doesn't make you sign some sort of confidentiality agreement when they audit you.
Like every other silly thing he says, this probably will probably increase his standing in the polls.

This is number 14 in our Second Thoughts series, following on from our interviews with Andy Altmann, Simon Waterfall, Nicolas Roope, Michael Bierut, Dick Powell, Rosie Arnold, Michael Wolff, Mike Dempsey, Bruce Duckworth, Erik Spiekermann, Tina Roth Eisenberg, Tony Brook and Adrian Shaughnessy. In case you missed why we're doing this, the same series of questions are asked to well-known design and creative people. This week, Steff Geissbühler.
Born in Zofingen, Switzerland Steff Geissbühler moved to Basel when he was eight years old. In 1958 he entered the Allgemeine Gewerbeschule (The Basel School of Art and Design) where he studied with Armin Hofmann and Emil Ruder. On graduating he got a job designing for chemical, pharmaceutical and dye products, but in 1967 was invited to teach graphic design at the Philadelphia College of Art (now the University of the Arts) and so moved to the USA, becoming acting chairman of the Graphic Design Department. Moving to New York in 1973 Steff worked with Anspach Grossman, and in 1975 joined Chermayeff & Geismar Associates as an Associate Partner. In 2005 he co-founded C&G Partners, and went on to found his own independent design consultancy geissbühler:design in 2011.
How old were you when you first suspected you could become a designer? I wanted to become a graphic designer at 15 straight out of public school. Although, a misguided professional counsel tried to convince me and my mother, that I would be a perfect chemist and tagged me first as color blind. Note: After a few years it dawned on me that Basel, a hot bed for chemical companies, such as CIBA, Geigy, Sandoz, etc. was obviously in need of chemists. He was just doing his job and trying to fill his quota.
Did you see or experience something early in your life that was a significant influence? My godfather was a lithographer, but unfortunately died during a mountain accident when I was still very little. He did some very naturalistic posters. Obviously I was also surrounded by great posters, brochures, symbols and signs.
Who were your early heroes(and what do you think of them now, in retrospect)? Armin Hofmann, Joseph Müller-Brockman, Herbert Leupin, Celestino Piatti, Giovanni Giacometti, among others, impressed me tremendously and still do. I use to rip posters off the poster columns and separate them from each other in the bathtub.
What's your recurring dream (or nightmare?) My nightmares are all about snakes, one of my four boys in danger, being late, unprepared and naked. Pretty classic, I presume.
Describe the worst boss or client you've ever had. I don't want to mention names, but I had my share of crazy clients. The worst are those who seem to know a little bit about design, just enough to be dangerous. One argued with me forever, regarding vertical type on a banner to read up. He was a librarian and used American book spines as a "global" example of proving me wrong.
What's your worst Apple-z ('undo') moment? Having lost my entire hard drive. But a lovely person from Bangalore brought it all back. I love you, man.
What do most people cite as your best/most well known piece of work? I think the NBC peacock logo, or maybe the original logo for TimeWarner.
What do YOU think is your best piece of work? Why? The poster and branding I did for Alvin Ailey is still one of my favorites, because it conveys the person, the choreographer, the dance company and the spirit of dance. And it was done with a brush.
What font would you choose for your gravestone? Instead of a gravestone, I want a tree. Therefore Helvetica is probably easier to carve than a Bodoni.
What wins, ideas or style? Winning ideas!
People have different ways to stay enthused, excited and interested in what they do for a living? What's yours? Learning about other people's business, methods, ideas, causes, and creating a visual portrait for them.
When and where do you have your best ideas? I have the best ideas in the middle of the night, although in the morning, they are usually not so much. Besides, my wife has great ideas.
Seeing, smelling, touching, hearing, tasting. You have to give up two. Which ones? Smelling and touching. Is that what I see and hear?
If you could travel back in time, just once, and give yourself a few words of advice, what would they be (and when would you say them?) Never give up or go for second best.
Do you still draw or has the computer taken over? I definitely draw and urge my students to do same, but drawing on and with the computer is a close second.
What's the worst design crime you've seen (or committed?) The redrawing of my Time Warner logo, making it weaker, and then call it theirs.
You can only watch one film, read one book, listen to one album and eat one type of biscuit. What would they be? Album: Kind of Blue, Miles Davis
Film: China Town, Roman Polanski
Book: Into the Wild, Jon Krakauer
Cookie: Basler Läckerli, a very special cookie made in Basel, Switzerland, with a well protected recipe.
Let's say it all goes pear-shaped. What's your back-up plan? First of all, I love pears and pear shapes. So no problem there. I'm living my back-up plan right now. Playing a lot of tennis, work a little on whatever comes my way and enjoy live. I'm not on drugs.
Many thanks to Steff for taking part in Second Thoughts.

Research Supports Grammar Game
A few years after developing The Sentence Zone®, I attended a workshop on Sentence Writing Strategies based on the research from the University of Kansas (SIM Strategies). To my surprise, the sentence writing strategy they used was the same one I had been using with The Sentence Zone®, teaching the 6 basic sentence types. This was so cool to me because now there was years of research backing up my work, my game.
Read about the research on Learning Memory and the Brain
Game Details
For 2 to 6 players.
Rules are easily Mastered.
Can be played at six levels – from Level 1 in which the player builds a subject and verb sentence, to Level 6 in which the player builds complex sentences with independent and dependent clauses.
With over 700 color coded cards, sentences are sure to be unique and entertaining every time.
A great reinforcing individual grammar activity where a player keeps track of their score from day to day, trying to top their previous score, or a great group activity where competition drives creativity and learning.
The Sentence Zone® is an instructive and enjoyable way to shatter the tedium of English grammar lessons!
I wasn't sure if this game would work with my students since they don't read well yet. I didn't think my students would be able to play it. It would be way too difficult. But, Bonnie asked me to try it out so I did. To my amazement, the students not only played it and played it well, they wouldn't leave until I promised them they could play it again the next day! Thanks Bonnie for pushing me to try your game. It's really making a difference with my students!
Susan, ESL Teacher 1st/2nd grade
My five youngest played this together. Everyone could create their sentence at the same time. This created a bit more competition, as they saw their sibling's sentence grow longer, they added more to their own. My twelve year old won the round with the sentence,"The sinister dragon ran swiftly to retrieve a map." My favorite was from my eight year old. Here is her silly sentence, "The toe ate a pizza and a dinosaur." When told by her siblings that toes cannot eat, she replied that it was a sentence from a Science Fiction story and in her world, toes could eat. I love it!
There are so many ways you be creative with this grammar game and learn while having fun. It's a simple game but I'm impressed with how well it worked with my family. I really like this product. I will use it for my family and it will make a wonderful addition to our grammar program. whether you are a homeschooler or not, you will enjoy adding this grammar game to your family activities and help your children discover the parts of speech and learn English grammar in a fun manner.
I think we'll be playing more games with The Sentence Zone, as my daughter is great at picking words but hasn't much of a clue about parts of speech. After her little sister and I had played only a few rounds, Little Sister was advising on what piles to search through for words. "Dragon, that's a noun, look in the dark blue pile. Call is a verb…" Youngest, too, is enjoying the game, along with the novelty of knowing more than her older sister about something!
You can use The Sentence Zone with very young children, using the most basic building blocks (articles, nouns, verbs) to come up with the simplest of sentences and adding more categories (adjectives, adverbs) as they grow more confident. It has lots and lots of words for building. It is easily adaptable for my beginning reader and my older kids.
SAT Prep Coach Uses The Sentence Zone for Improving Grammar Section Scores
Patricia Lara, a coach for high school students preparing to take the SAT, started using the game to teach an understanding of English grammar: parallel sentence structure and the role of interrupting phrases. The students loved it and really understood sentence structure for the first time. And, their SAT grammar scores started rising.

Apex Announces Thin Blue Line Series In Support of C.O.P.S.
PEORIA, Ariz. – Randy Lee and Scott Folk, the owners of Apex Tactical Specialties, are proud to announce the release of a special series of triggers specifically offered to raise money for the families of police officers who have died in the line of duty. With the sale of each trigger in the new Thin Blue Line Series, available only from ApexTactical.com, Apex will donate 25% of each sale to Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.), the leading national organization supporting the spouses, children, parents, siblings, significant others, extended family and affected co-workers of fallen officers.
Each year, between 140 and 160 officers die in the line of duty and their families and co-workers are left to cope with the tragic loss. Organized in 1984, C.O.P.S. provides resources to help them rebuild their shattered lives.
C.O.P.S., a nationally recognized and highly respected law enforcement support organization, offers programs for survivors, including the National Police Survivors' Conference held each May during National Police Week, scholarships, peer-support at the national, state, and local levels, "C.O.P.S. Kids" counseling reimbursement program, the "C.O.P.S. Kids" Summer Camp, "C.O.P.S. Teens" Outward Bound experience for young adults, special retreats for spouses, parents, siblings, adult children, extended family, fiances/significant others and co-workers, trial and parole support, and other assistance programs.
"Apex is extremely proud to support C.O.P.S. with our Thin Blue Line Series of triggers. Like so many, we have watched in horror as the good men and women of law enforcement have come under attack. With each life lost there is a family and a community left behind to pick up the pieces. We hope that with the financial support generated through the sale of these triggers, C.O.P.S. can expand their efforts and help more families," said Lee and Folk in a joint statement released by the company.
"C.O.P.S. thanks Apex Tactical Specialties for their generous support of America's surviving law enforcement families. With each contribution, C.O.P.S. is able to continue to provide the healing Hands-On Programs at no cost to survivors, as the price they have paid is already too high," says Dianne Bernhard, C.O.P.S. Executive Director.
The new Thin Blue Line Series offered by Apex includes triggers for the Smith M&P, the M&P Shield and Glock model pistols. The new triggers are available now and can be ordered online at ApexTactical.com or by phone by calling Apex Customer Service at (623) 322-0200.

C.O.P.S. has a membership comprised of more than 37,000 people who have identified themselves as survivors nationwide. Unfortunately, that membership continues to grow as an average of 140-160 law enforcement officers are killed every year in the line of duty.

41 Responses to New From Apex Tactical Specialties: Thin Blue Line Handgun Triggers to Benefit C.O.P.S.
LOL! This is comical. Thin Blue line? Seriously??
"Police Survivors"
Stay true to the name: donate the money to the families of the thousands of people killed and maimed by cops every year instead of having the taxpayers pay the lawsuit settlements and compensations.
But only send money to those who clearly didn't DESERVE to be shot.
That way, they'll only have to send out two or three checks per year…
Even if your gross underestimate were true, that would still be better than the current amount of direct police restitution to victims: zero.
Actually the police in Georgia actually sued to prevent taxpayer funded compensation from being issued to the flashbanged baby, resulting in yet more legal fees for the victim and his family. So the correct number should be negative: the pigs just keep on taking.
Wow, you moved those goals posts quickly and oh-so smoothly.
You must have had lots of practice.
And clicking Reply to your own post, instead of mine?
Awesome bucket of Fail, right there.
But your response was filled with Fail, so nothing new, really…
"moved those goal posts"
I don't think you know what that term means, considering I directly addressed your sarcastic "point", a point rendered even more irrelevant since the term "deserved" is entirely subjective.
For example, Philando Castile supposedly "deserved" to be killed because he moved his hand around his pocket, even though he was given a direct order to show identification.
But don't let facts stop you from focusing on more important things, like which "reply" button was clicked on. 🙂
Well, congrats on getting the right button this time. Shows you CAN learn.
And thanks for making my point about the 2-3 cases per year that deserve compensation; you found two of the highest-profile cases, and are trying to use them to imply that all cop shootings or actions fall into those categories. Another Fail.
I think the funds ought to be split evenly between compensation for those ultra-rare events like you outlined, and awards/medals with paid bonuses for the trigger-pullers that shoot the RIGHT folks (the ones who needed it). How does that sound for a compromise?
"trying to use them to imply that all cop shootings or actions fall into those categories."
I made no such statement or implication, unlike you who explicitly stated that the number is 2 or 3 per year (as I said, a gross under-estimate). Stop projecting your bad logic onto other people.
"awards/medals with paid bonuses for the trigger-pullers that shoot the RIGHT folks"
Define "right". Also, all police funding already comes from taxpayers, and cops already give paid vacations to all their shooters regardless of right and wrong, so your so-called compromise is nothing of the sort.
To interject:
The "paid vacations" they give cops have multiple reasons behind them and it isn't to reward Joe Q. Officer with time off. Any time a cop shoots someone there is an investigation into the shooting. That officer cannot be on the street acting in an official capacity while technically under investigation for a possible illegal use of force.
Since they don't know if the shoot legit or not until the investigation is complete the officer is off the streets until it's determined that he's good to go or that he needs to be arrested.
The counterpoint is that the justification process is little more than a rubber-stamp, given the vast leeway and deference given to cops in their use of lethal force (especially in contrast with civilian standards), so the paid vacation is exactly that.
So they go mow the grass at city park, plow snow, do other useful task? Or have paid time off (a vacation)?
You can't come at this from a purely ideological perspective.
Consider: If a police officer shoots someone and it's a legit bad shoot with evidence of that then they end up in court (See Albuquerque).
On the other hand if it's a righteous shoot the officer in question still has to be relieved of duty for the investigation but there is no reason to withhold pay once you know they were legit to shoot. There is no reason a cop should lose paychecks due to the fact they they face-shot some fucktard who deserved it.
"it's a legit bad shoot with evidence of that then they end up in court (See Albuquerque)."
An occurrence so exceedingly rare that it is statistically impossible. There are many reasons for this: resistance against body-cams, and a lack of punishment for mysteriously malfunctioning or disabled cameras, the special legal privileges enjoyed by police after a shooting (cooling-off periods, restricted interrogations, the ability of cops to confer with each other before questioning to clean up their stories, etc), the symbiotic relationship between police and prosecutors resulting in an atmosphere of deference for the word of police.
Keep in mind that cops have sued and successfully won back-pay even when their shoots were ruled to be unjustified and they lost their jobs as a result, even though they escaped criminal punishment as per the norm.
Your using logical fallacies again:
Formal Fallacy – These are also called deductive fallacies. In deductive fallacy arguments, all premises must be accurate and impossible to be proven otherwise. When this is the case, there is no way that the conclusion can be false.
Read more at http://examples.yourdictionary.com/examples-of-logical-fallacy.html#tqOFMsjEVOGRfQOQ.99
Police can't be victims, in your feeble mind, because they all deserve to be shot. Therefore, the slain Dallas PD officers deserved to die, and their families are not entitled to compensation.
I disagee. And not only do I disagree, but I've donated money to them by purchasing a Grunt Style memorial shirt. Grunt Style donated $200,000 to that cause.
But I wouldn't expect any actions other than words on a keyboard from More Dead.
"Police can't be victims, in your feeble mind, because they all deserve to be shot."
This would be a strawman fallacy. I did not say anything of the sort. I merely stated that the victims of police shootings are far more deserving of donations as opposed to police themselves, who are lavishly funded with taxpayer-funded legal services, and operate in an advantageous legal position when compared with the regular citizenry.
I do enjoy how you end up spewing out a logical fallacy of your own with your clumsy attempt to accuse me of one. 🙂
"An occurrence so exceedingly rare that it is statistically impossible."
Except that it's happened all over the country proving your statement to be untrue.
Are there bad shoots? Yes. Are they the majority? No, not even close. Are there cases where cops are protected by the "Blue Wall"? Yes. Are they the majority? No.
Cops get away with a lot of behavior I disapprove of just because they're cops. I've seen it personally. That doesn't mean it's the general way that they operate. It also doesn't mean that they don't face significant scrutiny when they kill or seriously injure someone.
I'm sure there have been cases where cops obviously in the wrong killed someone and got away with it but it's nowhere near common enough to start painting all police shootings, or even most police shootings, in that light.
What's that about being so rare as to be statistically impossible? When others like Strych9 are posting examples to the contrary? Smells like another of your logical fallacies to me.
Anyways, I've said before that I don't care about your opinions and that trend continues. Now I'm going to back to enjoying my life, the wonderful dinner my wife made me, and this Moscow Mule in a copper mug with fresh lime, Grey Goose, and Hollows & Fentimanns beers. Life is good.
"Except that it's happened all over the country proving your statement to be untrue."
Statistically impossible is not the same as impossible, it means it is exceedingly rare.
For a cop to be criminally persecuted even with the extreme legal leeway, an omerta-like silence from his cohorts, and a prosecutorial system that depends on police for cases, is a rare thing indeed.
"Smells like another of your logical fallacies to me."
Feel free to actually point one out, instead of failing miserably as with your last attempt.
"I've said before that I don't care about your opinions and that trend continues."
And yet, you keep posting all those logical fallacies. Go figure. 🙂
Backtrack much? The only thing that you've proven is that you've got time to respond to comments. You're impotent to do anything else.
Anyways, I'll keep supporting cops when they're legit and opposing cops and big government when they aren't. You can call me clumsy and stupid all you want, but I'm winning my 148 (a) PC, 69 PC, 10851 (a) VC, 2800.2, 245 PC, and 187 PC cases. That's CA law if you want to look it up.
If you're as good as you think you are, and you're allegations of logical fallacies as sound as you perceive them to be, go and become a lawyer and beat people like me in court! We'll be "powerless" to stop you, right?
But I'm guessing you can't do anything other than bloviate online, and post little smiley faces. I want to say that I wish you the best, but you saying that officers and soldiers deserve to die just ruins it for me.
"Backtrack much"
Where? Do you even know what that word means?
Awww, you are using one of my favorite words. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. 🙂
The rest of your post is your usual garbage "argument from authority" fallacy which can be dismissed without discussion, as usual. I will point out one thing:
"become a lawyer and beat people like me in court"
Maybe I am already, you would never know. Unlike you, I do not ask irrelevant questions regarding career choices when constructing a logical argument. 🙂
"Statistically impossible is not the same as impossible, it means it is exceedingly rare."
You need a math class. Something that is statistically impossible will not occur. Statistically impossible means that the probability of it occurring is zero. Period. End of story. That's the mathematical definition.
Stop reading Google for your math knowledge and take a fucking class on the subject.
Even if you go with something retarded like the Conservopedia definition you're talking 10^-50 or lesser odds. So rolling with that definition, you're still wrong.
I like how you spit out an incorrect definition, call the correct definition retarded, then implore me to stop using google (from which you yourself found the correct definition). Please, cite a reputable source backing up your claim of "statistical impossibility" as the same as "zero probability".
Any math text on stats ever written. How's that?
Probabilities range from 0 to 1. Something with a probability of 0 is, by definition, "statistically impossible" because it will literally never happen. Anything greater than 0 will eventually happen but if the number is close enough to 0 it's highly improbable and won't happen often. The chance you roll 10 on a standard die is 0 (statistically impossible). It simply cannot happen. The chance that you roll the die and it ends up balanced on an edge is improbable but theoretically possible so it has a low probability.
You're arguing that something is "statistically impossible" when a single circumstance proves this to be incorrect. I've given you that circumstance hence proving your hypothesis to be incorrect. Were I to be bothered I could give you dozens more.
You're arguing it's statistically improbable and in some cases/jurisdictions I might even cede you that argument but when you insist on using incorrect terminology I will not.
Sorry, the chances of a police officer being charged for an illegitimate shooting are most certainly not "statistically impossible" because such a thing has happened. Where you draw the line between "improbable" and "likely" isn't something statistics has defined, so if you wish, you may say an officer being charged for an improper use of lethal force is "improbable" (or conversely that not being charged is "probable") but you cannot say it's "statistically impossible" because it has happened and therefore must, by definition, have a chance greater than 0.
"The chance that you roll the die and it ends up balanced on an edge is improbable but theoretically possible so it has a low probability."
That is an example of "statistically impossible". It is distinctly different from "impossible", i.e. zero possibility. And "statistically impossible" is a relative term, same as your use of the term "statistically improbable".
And since it is a subjective term (and by definition, non-zero), by definition it is non-zero. Therefore, you are wrong.
I'm not sure if this will go into the right spot since my phone is glitching, but Dead hasn't ever admitted errors. That's not how he / she / it rolls. He's infallible in his own mind, and paints with a broad brush, especially when it comes to his anti police / anti military rants.
What you're saying makes sense to me, but getting him to admit he's wrong will probably never happen. Carry on, sir.
No, it's not.
If someone punches a wall will their hand pass through it? 0% chance right? Wrong. If they punch the wall an infinite number of times eventually every atom will line up just right and their hand will pass through the wall. Not impossible, just extremely improbable.
Since it is possible to balance a die on it's edge the concept that it would happen by rolling the die is possible it would end up that way. It's just extremely improbable.
The way you're using the term "statistically impossible" is made up and defined to be 10^-50 anyway. I've already shown that to also be incorrect.
No matter how you define it, you're wrong. You really need a better science and math education.
I assume this is related to those flag stickers I see around?
I see a lot of these in my area: https://www.amazon.com/Blueline-Reflective-American-Honoring-Enforcement/dp/B01BHGP4KG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1477953051&sr=8-1&keywords=police+blue+line+flag+sticker
I don't trust cops — there's no reason why I should — but I don't have a problem with this program and I don't understand why anyone would.
Ralph, I thought we were bffs
Some people just can't stand to see anything supporting police- or in this case the widows\orphans of officers killed- without twitching and sputtering over the idea that anyone who likes guns might support such a charity. I don't see the big deal either way…
Thanks for that, sir.
I appreciate your past efforts to convict dirty cops, while supporting police who are victims. You've made a legitimate contribution by doing so – which is a lot more than I can say for the cop bashers who will inevitably flood these posts.
I may get one of these triggers for one of my Glock 23s.
Not to be stupid, but WTF is up with these triggers? There seems to be nothing about them in the article except buy these to support the police. What are they? Do they have some claim to fame?
Apex makes some very nice triggers, basically the only way I could make my (late) Shield work well was the Apex Forward Set trigger. That bendy thing S&W puts on the stock Shield is facacta.
The Blue color is nice vis-a-vis the charity, but I've always associated blue on firearms as designating a non-lethal, not shooting practice unit. (See the Glock Blue practice pistol). Hope we don't have any issues with this….
Word. The Apex trigger greatly improves the M&P products. I haven't tried them in Glocks, because the Ghost connectors works so well, but now I'm inclined to buy one just to show solidarity.
So you just throw money in the name of "solidarity" at any "charity" that has "cops" it it's name? Without determining what percentage of their incoming dollars actually go to actual affected people? Your "Solidarity" is what causes a lot of the anti-cap friction.
only defect in the shield is the trigger is ugly. Its heavy, gritty, its just a bad trigger. Other than that is a damn fine gun. Put an apex trigger (I went with the flat face) and you got one really good gun.
I've nothing bad to say about the concept, other than to point out that the dependents of LEOs killed in action are one of the smallest and most overemphasized groups of 'needy' people in the country…
…but 'affected co-workers' is carrying it a wee bit too far.
I just remembered, I know an officer who was killed this year…with his own gun…by his own hand.
Now, before anybody says something crass, this was a guy I knew for 40 years and actually liked, and he was People Of The Gun and a firearms instructor.
My question is, is suicide considered a workplace injury in the LE world?
Would C.O.P.S. help a family deal with the aftermath of suicide?
Should C.O.P.S. help a family deal with the aftermath of suicide?
Would your answer change if the officer killed himself to halt an internal investigation of himself? (If ever there was such a thing as a trustworthy narcotics detective it would be this guy, but it's probably high among the reasons for narcotics detectives to kill themselves)
The guy I knew wasn't named Gliniewicz, but what if he was?
I hope they don't sell one fucking trigger. Cops are nothing but armed government thugs who can kill and hurt with impunity. There is no such thing as a good cop. #FTP
