Relationship OverviewEdit
Jack and Violet are both teenagers.
Jack Frost was lonely because nobody believed in him while Violet was an awkward, shy girl. She doesn't have a lot of friends in school. Jack wanted to be seen and believed in while Violet wanted to be noticed. They were both invisible in a sense. In the beginning of the movie, Rise of the Guardians, Jack was isolated and he had no one else he could to talk because nobody saw him. No one could touch him and hear him. Violet felt invisible and just wanted a friend.
They're able to relate to each other because of their loneliness. At first, Violet wouldn't believe in Jack and thought that it was childish. Jack would be there by her side and when she's seen talking to him, others couldn't see him. She's the only one who could see him while most wouldn't.

Dear Radio DJ
My name is Elliot Laudermilk and I would like to personally thank you for playing that Bastille song every hour relentlessly for the past 6 months. It's the best song anyone will ever hear. You know the song I am talking about: it starts out with this tomb-like chanting and proceeds to rock my balls out every hour. It's called "Pompeii" and it is a-okay with me! Not since Chumbawumba have I heard such classic grooves!
Personally, I do not know why people are running, yes running from typical FM radio and moving onto things like streaming internet radio stations like Pandora or Spotify. It's like, hello, who does not want to hear the same 7 or 8 songs in a continuous loop for 24 hours a day?
The reason I am writing is that I noticed now that you are playing the song every two hours instead of every single hour and quite frankly, I'm a little concerned. Are you slowly taking the song out of rotation? Does this song have a half-life of only 6 months? I sure hope not. To my recollection, I have only heard the song 4,100 times since it premiered back in November and that is not nearly enough. No, I need to hear that song about 50,000 more fucking times please. Do you think you could make that happen? I sure hope so. Sincerely.
Whether it is the first time I ever heard the song or the 4,000th, my reaction is always the same: pure unadulterated joy, a smile from ear to ear, as well as a renewed vigor in my step, and it will continue that way until you take it off the air. Well, either until you take it off the air or I get the various brain parasites removed.
Personally, I do not believe there is any substantial correlation between the brain parasites and my love for your radio station. I think the doctors are way, way off base here. I think it is completely normal that the more you play a particular song, the less I get sick of it. That makes sense, doesn't it? So please, while others may be writing or calling your station, begging, pleading, screaming for you to shut the fuck up with that particular song, just remember me, Elliot Laudermilk, frolicking around his room with the quiet, majestic beauty of a butterfly's queef, applauding your efforts to reach the magical number of 50,000.

Quinn Loftis Interview with Jennifer Adams
from Blood Rites, Book 2 in the Grey Wolves Series
QL: Jen, on behalf of the readers I just want to say thank you for joining me today and allowing us to ask you some questions so we can get to know you.
JA: Thank you for having me. I am all about some PR, juicy tid bits, and all that jazz.
QL: You, Jacque and Sally have been friends for a very long time, has there ever been a time in your relationship where you were on the outs so to speak?
JA: Hmm, well honestly the three of us are way to vocal to ever give one another the silent treatment, at least not for long any way, and by not for long I mean less than a minute. There have been times when we were definitely on the verge of possible mudslinging. Let's see, well there was this one time that Jacque and I got into it, I don't even remember what it was about but she pi…oh I bet I'm not suppose to use that word, well, she ticked me off so bad that during lunch I went out to the student parking lot and put a piece of paper under every windshield wiper, "for a good time call" with her number and below that it said, "or I do laundry as well." It was hilarious…okay so maybe a little much. Jacque retaliated by super gluing pretty much anything of mine she could get her hands on, my locker, my pens and pencils, the zipper on my back pack. It was a major bi…crap sorry, it was a pain trying to keep an eye on all my stuff so she couldn't get her grubby paws, (no pun intended since at the time I didn't know she was part fur ball), on my things. Sally finally made us call a truce.
QL: Sounds like you all have a very intense friendship.
JA: Intense is definitely a good word for it. But despite all of our drama, Jacque and Sally are as good as blood to me.
QL: So in light of recent events how has having this fierce friendship with them helped you get through the difficult situations you all have gone through.
JA: I can't imagine going through all we have been through and not having each other. I mean a car crash, nearly being burned alive, a super hot, bossy werewolf who I shouldn't have feelings for, my best friend being taken, getting wasted in a hospital…how could anybody get through all that and not have a support system? I would need some serious Prozac if I didn't have a dose of Jacque and Sally a day.
QL: Ok Jen, just remember you brought it up. This hot, bossy werewolf…what's up with that?
JA: Nice, you had to go there didn't you Quinn. Well, I don't know what there is to say about it. He drives me insane, he's grumpy, brooding, handsome, mysterious…crap, I just keep telling myself he has fleas and that's never good for any relationship.
QL: Digressing a little, what were your thoughts when you discovered werewolves were not really things only found in books or the movies?
JA: Let see, I believe there was a whole lot of , WTH. There were some definite are you freaking kidding me's and there might have been one or two bloody hell's thrown in for good measure. I mean it was a shock for sure, but really am I surprised, look at our world. Okay I'm going to get deep for a sec, we live in a world where babies start as a teeny tiny jelly bean. Yes I listen occasionally in biology. We live in a world where animals come in black and white stripes, and spots. We live in a world where the deepest part of the ocean has yet to be discovered, the farthest parts of space yet to be explored, why can't there be werewolves? Okay, I'm done being deep. I only give out one deep moment a day so don't expect anything profound from here on out.
QL: Okay, last question. Well, two questions. Everyone is dying to know what you whispered in Decebel's ear that caused such a reaction from him, and what really happened with Matty?
At this point in the interview Jen is rolling she is laughing so hard.
JA: Man, wasn't the look on his face priceless! That was such an American Express Card moment. But really Q, I can't share that information or I'd have to kill you. (She laughs more). Matty, well let's just say that Sally's song still applied at the end of the night.
QL: Okay, well thank you again for giving us some of your time and we look forward to seeing more of you in Just One Drop, Book 3.
JA: Thank you for having me, and if you thought Blood Rites lit your fire, well let's just say that Just One Drop is like pouring lighter fluid on that flame.

I have been putting off processing and sharing my images from my trip to the Pacific northwest with Jeff Swanson of http://interfacingnature.com but finally decided to process some and share them.
This is a location that I have been dreaming of visiting for many, many years. The opportunity finally came when Jeff asked if I'd like to meet up at his place near Oakland and head North on a week long road trip. I said yes, bought plane tickets, put my tent and sleeping bag in my luggage and I was gone.
When we finally arrived at our first location, Proxy Falls, I was in awe. I continued to be in awe at every location we went to.
Having been there once, I now have a better idea of what I want next time I go and I will go again, soon.
Here are the images. Feel free to leave feedback if you want or just enjoy them for what they are.
Often I am asked "What gear do you use?"
I thought I would compile a list with links here on my blog for others to use as a reference.

The other day I took a short hike behind my house up Kingsbury Creek to I-35 and back down. The water flow was really low so I decided to look for some detail shots and abstract images. Here are a couple shots I came home with.
Often times we see a bad weather system moving in, get bummed and sit inside wishing for better photographic conditions. More often than not, bad weather actually translates into great photo opportunities.
This image was captured on a cloudy day. A 9 stop filter and polarizing filter were used to get a long exposure. The long exposure helped give the image an ominous feel by adding motion to the clouds.
Here is the same island with a wider view on a different day. On this afternoon, a storm was developing near sunset at Ellison Island in Split Rock State Park, along Lake Superior's North Shore.
Looming storm clouds can add a sense of drama, adding extra interest to your outdoor photography, like this image of an old fishing shack on Lake Superior's North Shore. A storm had just started moving in near sunset.
Overcast, cloudy days can be terrific weather for shooting waterfalls, streams and reflections. The reason for this is the light becomes soft, diffused and the overcast skies allow you to get slower shutter speeds for soft, silky looking water.
This image was captured on an overcast day in Zion National Park. I used a polarizer to enhance the reflection and definition in the sky.
Foggy days make for great, moody imagery. Walk into the forest on a foggy day and you will notice an ethereal effect that can really add some depth and interest.
Or, head out to some urban areas.
Sub-zero temperatures can add many different elements such as steam, sundogs, ice patterns, frost, etc.. which add depth and drama to make extremely dynamic imagery.
Storms that are clearing out near sunrise or sunset often make for the best light shows. As the sun is rising or setting it is low, near the horizon. The light is bouncing and reflecting through small particles and molecules which change the direction of the light rays, resulting in different colors. Add to this, some nice clearing storm clouds and you get an amazing light show. If you are lucky and there is a break in the clouds, you might see some nice sun bursts blasting through.
I want to talk about using creative filters to achieve certain looks while photographing scenic landscapes.
Creative filters are used in front of the lens to enhance an image or can help make the scene look very close to what you see with your eye.
My favorite creative filters are 4×5 Graduated Neutral Density Filters (will be referred to as GND filters) and extreme Neutral Density filters (aka ND filters), specifically the B+W 10 stop (aka ND 3.0) filter or the Lee Big Stopper 4×4 filter.
A Graduated Neutral Density filter is used to balance exposures with a Large Dynamic Range of light. Think of a scene with a bright sky. If you shot that without a Graduated Neutral Density filter and metered for the foreground, the sky would be overexposed (washed out with a loss of detail) and the foreground would be exposed properly. Inversely, if you metered for the sky, the sky would be exposed properly and the foreground would be underexposed (too dark with little to no details). Basically, The Graduated Neutral Density filter will balance your exposures and allow both the bright sky and foreground to be properly exposed.
Graduated Neutral Density filters (GND Filters) come in several different densities or strengths. 1 stop, 2 stop, 3 stop, and 4 stop are the most common. They also are available in hard edge or soft edge varieties. Hard Edge GND filters are best used in scenes that have hard, clean lines without anything protruding through them such as a lake with a clear horizon line.
A Hitech 3 Stop hard Edge Grad ND was used to capture this image. I placed the hard edge transition line of the filter on the horizon.
Soft Edge GND filters are best used in busier scenes such as a Pier with a lighthouse or a stream with foliage, trees and a bit of sky showing.
A Hitech 3 Stop Soft Edge Grad ND was used to capture this image. I used a soft edge filter due to the tree line on the left meeting the sky and the trees on the right protruding into the upper portion of the image.
Whether you decide you use a Hard Edge or a Soft Edge GND, the brightness of the scene will help dictate which filter strength is best to use. You can wing it and guess or you can use this metering technique to calculate which filter might work the best. Start by metering the scene twice, once for the sky and once for the foreground. Let's say the sky metered at 1/1000th of a second and the foreground metered at 1/125th. This means the sky is 3 stops brighter than the foreground, (1/1000th to 1/500th second to 1/250th second to 1/125th second) you would want to use a 3 stop Graduated Neutral Density filter to balance the scene. The top portion of the Grad ND filter is going to block 3 stops of light and the bottom of the filter is going to allow all of the light to pass through for an even exposure.
Here is an example of no filters vs. Using a Grad ND filter. As you can see, the Grad ND really helps balance the exposure for a much better looking final image.
I used a HiTech 3 Stop Soft Edge Filter on the right portion of the image. You might be asking why I didn't use a hard edge filter since the horizon line is so clear with no obtrusions. I used the soft edge filter to help keep the water in the mid ground from overexposing. If I had used a hard edge in this case, everything above the horizon would have been exposed properly and the water would have been a bit too bright.
The last filter I am going to talk about is the 10 Stop Solid Neutral Density Filter. This filter reduces the amount of light that hits the camera's sensor by 10 stops which allows you to achieve very long exposures in bright conditions.
This side by side image will help you visualize what the filter is capable of.
The image on the left was shot with a 3 Stop Soft Edge Graduated Neutral Density Filter and the image on the right was captured with a 10 stop Solid ND filter only.
The image on the left had an exposure value of ISO100 – F/16 – 5 seconds
The image on the right had an exposure value of ISO100 – F/11 – 256 seconds
Even though I shot the 10 stop image at a wider aperture than the non-10 stop image, a much longer exposure was needed to expose the image properly.
To calculate the proper exposure you need to get a base exposure without the filter attached to the camera.
Put the camera on your tripod and dial in your composition. Take a photo and review it, making sure you haven't over or under exposed the image. Once you have the exposure and focus dialed in and the composition looks good, set the lens to manual and attach the 10 stop filter. Turn the camera's mode dial to Bulb. Attach your cable release.
Now, you need to review your last image and see what the settings were. Let's say your settings for the test image you just took are ISO100 – F/11 – .5 second
You need to double the exposure time 10 times to get the proper exposure to compensate for the 10 stop filter you just attached to the camera.
Let's double our exposure 10 times, starting at .5 second
.5 second
1 second
2 seconds
4 seconds
8 seconds
16 seconds
32 seconds
64 seconds
128 seconds
256 seconds
512 seconds
( I find that doubling the exposure 11 times for to compensate for my 10 stop filter generally works the best, though Your mileage may vary.)
In that case, the final exposure would be:
1024 seconds (17 minutes)
The 10 stop filter adds a bit of drama and an extra element that the eye cannot see, helping to capture dynamic scenes.
Also, I find that I rarely ever need to combine a Grad ND filter with the 10 stop filter. The final exposure with just the 10 stop filter almost always retains all of the exposure information from the scene. Your mileage may vary with this too.
A storm had just passed through Split Rock State park. I used a B+W 10 stop ND filter to get a 256 second exposure. The long exposure smoothed out the large waves and blurred the clouds, giving the image a painted feeling.
If you have any questions or comments, please leave them below or you can email me. I am always happy to answer any questions.
Thank you for reading this article and I hope it helps you understand the advantages of using creative filters in the field.

I made my first National Park visit and first photo specific vacation this past March. I met up with two other photographers, the first was Jeff Swanson of Interfacing Nature Photography. We both met up in Las Vegas, Jeff flew in from California and I flew in from Minnesota. We got the keys to our exotic rental, which was a sleek black ford fusion with nicely stained seats. We started the beast up and began heading north, making a quick stop at Valley of Fire State Park. We briefly walked around a couple different areas, but the light had already started fading and a major storm was rolling in so we continued North.
Here is Jeff hanging out on the cliff side edge at Horseshoe Bend on the Colorado River in Page, AZ.
The second photographer was Lonnie Shull of Landshape Photography, he is from the Salt Lake City area and drove down to meet us at our hotel near the entrance to Zion National Park. Lonnie was familiar with the area and offered to be our chauffeur and tour guide. Over the course of 4 days we explored Zion NP, Bryce NP, Upper Antelope Slot Canyon in Page, AZ as well as Horseshoe Bend on the Colorado River. Both photographers were super down to earth, easy going and fun to hang out with. I hope to meet up with them again in the future.
Before I left on my trip, I decided I wanted to rent a telephoto lens in case I saw wildlife or wanted to reach out and catch some details in the mountains. I was going to order through one of the many online rental services that are on the internet when I was introduced to Ryan of iRentPhoto who runs an awesome camera gear rental service which happens to be local to Duluth, MN. Fortunately they had the lens that I wanted to rent, the Canon 100-400 F/4.5-5.6 L USM. Renting from iRentPhoto not only allowed me to support a local business, but I was able to pick it up and return it locally which eliminated the extra shipping charges.
I should mention that iRentPhoto does ship nationwide and although they don't have as large of a gear selection as some of the other online rental outlets, they do carry top of the line gear and their customer service is extremely professional, friendly and fast. Their rental service is geared towards rentals that require shipment and thus have a 4 day minimum rental period. For locals, rental periods can be much more flexible (even one day), but in order to set it up a local rental, you should just give them a call. All others can rent online through their website.
Here is Lonnie, taking a photo of Jeff.
This is us ripping through the Zion NP switchbacks in Lonnie's Tribeca.
For the majority of the trip, the weather was gray and overcast making for very flat light. One day we experienced every season, with some rain, snow, melt and sunshine.
The sky finally opened up after the first couple days and gave way to big white puffer clouds with windows of blue sky. Taking trips like this, you make the most with what weather you get.
It was a phenomenal trip overall, I met two new friends, talked photography, made some new images, saw some amazing sights and even have a few local brews. I can't wait to do it again.
Here I am, looking real tough in front of the entrance to Upper Antelope Canyon to give you an idea of the scale.
Enough Rambling, here are the photos. Please contact me if you have any questions. I am always happy to talk photography and help out when possible.

I almost forgot, I reviewed the Think Tank StreetWalker HardDrive backpack while I was on the eastern Plateau in Zion.
I hiked around for 4 days with this bag while in Zion National Park. it was extremely comfortable and never strained my shoulders or my back. If you are looking for a bag that is large enough to carry a couple camera bodies, several lenses, misc gear, laptop, tripod and is airplane carry on friendly, this might be the bag for you.
Purchase the StreetWalker HardDrive bag using this link – http://bit.ly/g1E0nh and when you order $50 or more of Think Tank gear online, at checkout you will be able to select an accessory to receive for FREE.
It might sound crazy, but Winter is easily my favorite time of the year for photographing the shore of Lake Superior. I used to complain about winter, but have really learned to embrace it since picking up a camera several years ago.
The sub zero temperatures, along with the help of Lake Superior's waves create icy rocks and interesting patterns and ice formations. Sunrises are vivid, clouds seem more abundant and the mist rises off the lake while the wind sweeps it back and forth. All of these elements combine to create a great deal of depth and interesting-ness not found in other seasons here in MN.
This winter has been no exception. I want to share some of my favorite images captured this 2010-2011 winter.
Ever wondered what the inside of the Historic Old Central high School's clock tower looks like?
Working for the Duluth School District has it's perks. I was fortunate enough to head up prior to Sunrise on a very windy and cold winter morning to grab a few images. The view is really amazing and I lucked out with the clouds and colorful sunrise that morning.

Hopster Hop-Tonic
20 in stock
Craft Soda
Kondrauer Mineral
The brainchild of Jonas Seidl–a graduate of the famed Weihenstephan brewing institute near Munich–the original Hopster was first test-marketed in 2012 after five years of experimentation. In the summer of 2013 the Shelton Brothers were introduced to it by Stephan Michel at his Mahrsbräu biergarten in Bamberg. Despite having absolutely no experience selling soft-drinks (and precious little even drinking them) we immediately took a liking to this effervescent, floral, and fruity adult-friendly beverage. We did however suggest two tweaks—crank the hops a bit, and take some of the sweetness off. A year and many recipe-experiments later, we were sampled on the new-and-improved stuff in Bamberg by Jonas Seidl himself—and immediately placed our first orders to get it into the U.S.
Hopster is produced in Bavaria at the Kondrauer Mineral – und Heilbrunnen, which mixes it's award-winning mineral water with tea and lemon essence and a distillation of essential Hallertauer Traditional, Taurus, Perle and Cascade hop oils. Its strikingly spritzy, fruity, and gently bitter aroma is followed by a dry, clean lemony palate. Refreshing by itself, it's also the perfect mixer, and an excellent non-sugary, non-alcoholic option for the hop-loving teetotaler or designated driver!
Note — anti-fans of citrusy American hops will be delighted with the aroma of the original German nobles….

Arete Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu MaltaGlobetrotter Friendly BJJ Academy Located In Gzira, Malta.
Arete Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Malta focuses on the Martial Arts of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Submission Wrestling.
Arete BJJ was founded in July 2016.
The reason for starting Arete Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was simple – there were no other BJJ teams in Gzira, Sliema or the St. Julians area.
Although we are relatively young team, we are growing incredibly fast!
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Malta
The Island of Malta is a beautiful place to come on holiday. It is also a fantastic country to train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The Bjj scene in Malta is still in its earliest stages, there are consequently only a handful of gyms where you can train. Unlike the other gyms, Arete is located centrally in Gzira, and is easily accessible via public transportation.
The weather conditions during the summer are usually very hot, so you should prepare for the sessions by drinking lots of water and consuming a little bit of salt. This will help prevent getting gassed out or experiencing any nasty cramps.
On the other hand, winter time is a completely different story. Insulation is generally very poor. This, combined with the somewhat high-humidity level, causes the air to feel cold. When training during the winter time, it is a good idea to wear spats and long sleeved rash-guards, some people even like to wear socks! To tackle this coldness, we put a high emphasis on our warm ups which are stimulating and dynamic.
Watch a video of us
Below you see video footage from our sessions
About us
We are a very informal BJJ team. We are here to have fun but we also train hard. At times, life can be so hectic and serious. Therefore, the academy is a place where you blow off steam whilst having a great time.
The way we see things
We should always strive to try our best when we are learning new techniques.
While we do go hard, we must never attempt to hurt our partners. Sparring can, and often should be competitive. When the round is over, we shake on it. Remember: training is just that, training. Therefore, we do not hold grudges towards our training partners. The goal is not to beat our friends, the goal is to help everyone improve.
Good Spirit
No matter how hard we train, or how competitive we might become, we should always do it in good spirit. We laugh, we smile and we strive to enjoy our time on the mats.
Life is often far too serious, but through training, we can liberate ourselves from external pressures.

Still not sure if you want to come and try it?

Nov. 10, 2007
SPRINGFIELD, Ore. --- The University of Portland men's and women's cross country teams ran well at the NCAA West Regional hosted at Springfield Country Club, pacing all WCC schools in both races.
The Pilot men made a big statement with a second place overall finish, placing three runners in the top five. Loyola Marymount finished 16th in the men's race, followed by Santa Clara in 19th place and Pepperdine in 23rd place.
The Pilot women also enjoyed a strong showing, placing seventh overall. The San Francisco women finished 12th, followed by the LMU women in 15th place, Santa Clara in 22nd place, and Pepperdine in 27th.
Portland junior David Kinsella (29:45.70) placed second overall, while seniors John Moore (30:05.70) and Michael Kilburg (30:06.90) finished fourth and fifth, respectively, to the lead Portland to an automatic NCAA Championships berth. Kinsella, who led a majority of the race, finished second behind Oregon's Galen Rupp (29:35.45) in the 10K event. Portland juniors Colin Longmuir (30:58.45) and Justin Houck (31:02.40) finished 32nd and 33rd to round out the team scoring.
"Our guys ran awesome," Portland head coach Rob Conner said. "When you have three top five finishers, it's tough not to do well. Longmuir and Houck really came through and did a nice job. We had them projected much lower than they performed and they brought us to a different level."
The Pilot men entered the meet ranked No. 20 in the nation and fourth in the West Region according to the latest USTFCCCA polls. The Pilots trailed Oregon, Stanford and California in the region. Oregon, the unanimous No. 1 team in the country, held on for the team title with 47 points, followed by the Pilots (76), Stanford (100), California (112) and Cal Poly (116).
"We had a big turnout of teammates, family and friends of the program here today and I think that gave us a big boost," Conner added.
The Pilots finished 18th at the 2006 NCAA Championships and hope to improve on that this season. The last time Portland placed as high as second in the West Regional was 2001, when the team went on for a seventh-place finish at the NCAA Championships, the best in school history. The championship meet is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 19 in Terre Haute, Ind.
"Our confidence is sky high right now," Conner said. "We'll do great next week at nationals, I guarantee it."
Portland sophomore Dana Morgan placed ninth to lead the Pilot women to a seventh-place finish. With her effort, Morgan, the WCC Champion, has automatically qualified for the NCAA Championship meet as an individual, while the Pilots will await a potential at-large bid.
Morgan posted a time of 20:41.40 at the 6K course to earn her third consecutive top 10 finish against elite competition. She has already secured her ticket to the championship meet by virtue of being one of the top four individuals not on an advancing team. Stanford (33) and Oregon (72) finished first and second, earning the region's automatic NCAA bids. Stanford's Teresa McWalters won the race with a time of 19:57.30, the only harrier to come in under 20 minutes.
Portland ran without No. 2 runner Amie Dahnke, who was bothered by a foot injury. Junior Sifrash Ademe (21:29.70, 42nd), freshman Paige Pattillo (21:41.50, 55th), junior Adrienne Nova (21:51.90, 69th) and senior Bobeya Krishnek (21:57.25, 75th) rounded out the Pilots' scoring.

Field of the Invention This invention relates to holders for safety razors and is directed more particularly to a holder having battery-charging means as well as means for securely retaining a safety razor and razor blade dispenser means.
2. Description of the Prior Art Holders for safety razors are commonplace in the market and generally comprise plastic containers which enclose the razor or the razor head to protect the razor from damage and also to protect persons and property from harm which could be caused by an exposed razor blade edge.
More recently, there have been developed safety razors utilizing the known double-edge type of razor blade, and intended for wet shaving operations, but also including batterypowered electrical means for inducing a desired particular motion in the razor during shaving operations.
Accordingly, there has arisen a need for a safety razor holder which securely retains the razor in place, protects the head of the razor, retains razor-blade-dispensing means, and also operates to recharge the battery power source of a safety razor such as described in the above-mentioned patent application.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a holder for a safety razor, which holder securely retains a razor in place and protects a head portion of the razor.
A further object of the invention is to provide such a razor holder having facility for retaining blade-dispensing means.
A still further object of the invention is to provide such a razor holder having battery-recharging means therein.
With the above and other objects in view, as will hereinafter appear, a feature of the present invention is the provision of a holder for a safety razor comprising a base portion, batterycharging means disposed in the base portion, a surface of the base portion having a first recess for receiving a safety razor handle end, a support portion extending from the base portion, the support portion having a second recess therein for receiving blade dispenser means, and a bridge portion extending from the support portion generally parallel to and aligned with the surface above referred to. The bridge portion is provided with a third recess for receiving a neck portion of the safety razor, the third recess comprising an open-ended slot aligned with the first recess.
The above and other features of the invention, including various. novel details of construction and combinations of parts, will now be more particularly described with reference to the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the claims. It will be understood that the particular holder embodying the invention is shown by way of illustration only and not as a limitation of the invention. The principles and features of this invention may be employed in various and numerous embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Reference is made to the accompanying drawings in which there is shown an illustrative embodiment of the invention from which its novel features and advantages will be apparent.
F IG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of one form of holder illustrative of an embodiment of the invention;
FIG. 2 is an elevational sectional view; and
FIG. 3 is a diagrammatic view of the electrical circuit of the holder.
Description of the Preferred Embodiments Referring to FIG. 1, it will be seen that the illustrative holder includes a base portion 2 having battery-charging means 4 and having a first recess 6 for receiving one end of a safety razor R, shown in phantom. A side structure, or support means 8, extends from one end of the base portion and has extending from the end of the support means remote from the base portion, a bridge portion 10.
The upper end of the support means 8, as viewed in FIG. 1, is provided with a second recess 12 which receives a blade retaining and dispensing magazine B, shown in phantom. The bridge portion 10 is provided with a third recess in the form of an open-ended slot 14 which receives a neck portion N of the razor R, the bridge portion 10 acting as a support for a head portion H of the razor R. The slot 14 is aligned with the first recess 6 in the base portion 2, the slot 14 and recess 6 cooperating to retain the razor R in the holder.
A second support member 16 extends from the other end of the base portion 2 and joins the bridge portion 10. Thus, the support members 8, l6 serve to protect the razor R as well as support the bridge portion which in turn supports the razor. The bridge portion is provided with a top portion 18 pivotally attached to the bridge portion and movable to a closed position (FIG. 2) whereby to enclose the blade magazine B and the razor head H in a closed chamber 20. To lock the top portion closed, the bridge portion may be provided with a slot 22 (FIG. 1) for receiving a lug 24 disposed in the top portion 18.
The bottom of the holder is closed by a bottom plate 26 on which may be mounted the battery-charging means 4. The bottom plate is provided with an opening 28 to facilitate extension of an electrical lead 30 from the holder to an outside source of electrical energy (not shown). Before use, the electrical lead is stored within the support means 8.
Referring to FIG. 2, it will be seen that the battery-charging means 4 is disposed in line with the first recess 6 whereby to be proximate to an end of the razor R when the razor R is disposed in the recess 6. The charging means 4 is provided with a primary coil 32 (FIG. 3) and a core member 34 which includes a centrally disposed post 36 (FIG. 2) and a pair of upstanding fins 38, the post 36 extending from the battery-charging means 4 well into the recess 6 and the fins 38 being parallel thereto. The post portion 36 of the core member 34 is received in the razor R when the razor is disposed in the recess The holder is normally assembled for sale with the razor R disposed in the recesses 6, 14, the blade magazine B disposed in the recess 12, the electrical lead 30 disposed inside the support portion 8, and the upper end of the holder, as viewed in the drawings, closed by the top portion 18.
When it is desired to use the razor, the top portion is unlatched and pivotally moved to an open position. The lead 30 is removed to the extent necessary from the support portion 8, through the opening 28, and connected to a convenient source of electricity, as for example, a common household electrical outlet (not shown). Connection of the lead 8 to an electrical source energizes the primary coil 32 and core member 34, which in the illustrated example comprise a portion of an E- core transformer. Disposed in the razor R is a secondary coil C, shown in phantom in FIG. 3, which cooperates with the primary coil 32 and the core 34 to form a transformer for conducting electrical energy to a battery-charging circuit E located in the razor R.
The razor is lifted from the recess 6, thereby separating the components of the transformer and interrupting the batterycharging flow of electricity. When it is desired to change blades in the razor, the magazine B is merely lifted from the recess 12, the blade transfer from the magazine to the razor effected, and the magazine returned to the recess 12. After use of the razor, the razor is returned to the recesses 6, 14, a hole in the handle of the razor receiving the post portion 36 of the core member 34, whereby to reinstitute charging of the battery means of the razor. The top portion 18 is pivotally moved to the closed portion, thereby to enclose the razor head and blade magazine in the chamber 20.
If it is desired to move the holder, or for travelling and the like, the lead 30 need only be removed from the electrical source and repacked in the hollow support portion 8.
It is intended that the phrase battery-charging means as used herein indicate means facilitating battery charging, though not necessarily comprising all that is required to charge a battery. For example, the base portion referred to herein houses means facilitating battery charging and is referred to as battery-charging means, although it is recognized that such means in the housing comprises only part of the total means required to charge a battery, the remainin part being disposed in the razor handle.
It is to be understood that the present invention is by no means limited to the particular construction herein disclosed and/or shown in the drawings, but also comprises any modifications or equivalents within the scope of the disclosure.

The rose, both utterly common and universally poignant, is probably the most overused metaphor and symbol representing love and romance since the moon.
The rose, both utterly common and universally poignant, is probably the most overused metaphor and symbol representing love and romance since the moon.
Though cultivated and coddled for centuries, roses also grow wild. A rose tattoo would be something like a lasso around the moon, trying to pull it from orbit to bring it closer to home, disrupt the cycle, imprint permanence on the by-nature impermanent.
Tennessee Williams' "The Rose Tattoo" won the 1952 Tony for Best Play, and was made into a 1955 movie with Burt Lancaster and Anna Magnani, yet it's less often found in the playwright's contemporary garden. Watching the play underneath the production at the University of Alabama — the play that could have been — it's possible to see why. If performed straight, with its bosom-
heaving sensuality, overwrought dialogue and 1950s-era cultural mores, it could smell like one of the many parodies of Williams' work.
Instead, director Edmond Williams (no relation) and his cast and crew have performed something like a resurrection, by the turn of lines of dialogue, the right pause, a breath or a look, by suggesting that the writer intended the ridiculous within the sublime. They've found the deep, red center, a passionate, living being burning with faith, lust, loss, betrayal and hope, and other old hits.
Another facet of the reinvention was changing the Sicilians of some near-New Orleans parish into Cubans outside Miami. This makes "Rose Tattoo" a hothouse flower in the midst of our intermittently cool fall, a burnished but lively image serviced by Joshua Whitt's remarkable moving-wall house, by Jennifer Bronsted's multi-hued palate draped on the actors — reflecting lush life or flat despair — and by Brian Elliott's warm lights.
Although the bulk of the stage is Serafina's house — which alternates between shutting us out, as has its mistress in her depression, and swinging wide open to show us the life within — a few scattered plants, some nature sound cues and, best of all, a honest-to-Elvis live goat provide transporting magic.
None of that would have mattered without a committed cast, sounding confident and fluent in dialect, and as many American-living Cubanos will, slipping fluidly in and out of English and Spanish when one language won't suffice to express a thought.
At the top, we're almost invited to dislike Serafina De La Rosa (Jessica Knight), a baronessa who seems to have it all: A nice house, a little sewing business, a loving daughter, and most of all a beautiful and passionate husband (Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Show). But things rather quickly go wrong. Serafina's ardor wilts. Her life collapses as she grasps that all was not perfect as she'd believed, and what might have been ordinary grief spins into madness.
Knight is wondrously fierce, a wounded lioness who carries the show on her shoulders, and rides the roller coaster of Serafina's fears and dreams with a muscular intensity that reminds why theater beats film or even opera for expressing heightened emotions. Her Serafina, almost insufferably adorable at the beginning, goes through a kind of descent into hell, taking years with her climb slowly toward a new light and life.
She is most ably abetted by flexible and adept work by Jeff Horger as Alvaro Comecaballo, a truck driver who has her late husband's body, but, Serafina says, topped by a comical face.
That's fitting, because Comecaballo brings the laughs and sunshine in the second act, becoming not just Serafina's lover but, in a sense, her savior. Through their love, the controls loosen for beleaguered daughter Rosa (Stacey Diane Serowitz), chafing under mom's oppressive controls and growing up to be, by all appearances, much like her mom.
Horger's timing is the kind that suggests a musician's, finely balanced between playing all the right notes and knowing when to leave off, when to draw a line out, when to go sharply staccato.
Bentley Black as Jack Hunter is an early grace, with a broad, but controlled, performance as Rosa's sailor suitor, and Tommy Walker has a brief, but memorably odd, bit as a tightly wound salesman whose actions inadvertently bring Comecaballo into Serafina's life.
Abby Jones is the sweetly supportive yet variable Asuncion, probably Serafina's only true friend in the community, and Rebecca Klinge has a one-scene, crisply funny bit as Rosa's schoolteacher.
Others throughout are alternately sharp and fine, like the earlier mentioned design elements framing this story with both filigree and supportive structure.
By finding — or adding, as the case may be — the humor on the thorns of this tattoo, the director is suggesting that while passion may drive our lives, it is the perspective permitting laughter that keeps us from vanishing into the wild.

- Papri Chat (semolina crisps, spiced potatoes, yogurt, onions, chickpeas, mint, tamarind, chat masala, sev and pomegranate)
- At first glance, this looked a bit dry compared to what I've had elsewhere. However, as I dug into it, there were more potatoes and crips than anything else. Yogurt was adequate but a little on the drier side. Pomegranate – barely any! Taste and texture – the crisps were extremely crispy (i.e. fresh), yogurt wasn't bitter and I loved that mint was added into it. However, i'd prefer a little more pomegranate and more yogurt sauce. I wouldn't choose this again mainly because potatoes were on the heavier side than anything else; and I don't like to fill my stomach with potatoes before the main meal. However, would be good to share between 3 people.
- Kati roll (tandoori spiced chicken, onions, lime and green chilli wrapped in paratha)
- The paratha was relatively thin, soft and a little crunchy. Chicken breast was very tender and cooked, but it was a bit spicy due to fresh chills. If you were to choose this dish on its own, it would not be enough. Order 2 kati rolls. This is definitely something I'd have again.
- Gunpowder Broccolini (charred broccolini with garlic-ginger ghee, red chilli and sprinkled with spice)
- I love broccolini and I've only ever had it boiled! So I definitely needed to try it "charred"! This was only slightly charred, but it was deliciously cooked with a very garlicky ghee. In fact, it was too garlicky and a tad bit sea-salty! Although it was cooked with dried red chilli, it wasn't that spicy. This is a MUST HAVE dish; especially if you love green veg…just be mindful that it had a lot of ghee in it (but the ghee smelt like butter and not the bad kind of ghee that you buy from an Indian grocery store!)
- Chicken Rezala (a royal white curry with whole spices, yogurt, cashew, poppy seed and saffron)
- This was the most surprising dish of all because of the quantity. The total amount of chicken pieces looked as if they came from an equivalent of 2 chicken thighs or 2 drumsticks. The white curry was very thin (almost a water consistency rather than a cream/yogurt consistency). The taste was the usual – similar to what I had in Bangladesh. Therefore for a price of $15, especially with the small quantity, I felt that this was a "miss".
- Lamb Shank Kosha Mangsho (slowly braised lamb shank served with traditional mishti pulao with cashews, saffron and raisins)
- The lamb shank was cooked well with adequate amount of sauce to poor over the rice. The sauce itself was a bit on a tangy side (more tomato paste and less spices to what I'm used to) – in fact, I felt it was a bit similar to moroccan style cooking. At a price of $38 for the rice and meat, it is reasonable for Calgary. However, given the fact that I personally cook lamb shanks pretty well, I wouldn't have it next time 😃
- Garlic Nan
- We initially received a very well cooked piece of nan bread.. in fact, some parts of it were too crispy. The waiter kept coming by to see if everything was okay, and I just had to tell him that the nan was overly cooked. Within minutes though, he served softer nan. The nan wasn't that thin, but it was light. The garlicky butter on the top was a bit dry – would be better to have more of a moist coating on the top.
- Chai
- Masala chai was more on the watery side and the spices were overpowered by its sweetness from the sugar. I personally would not order this again because I prefer less sweeter, and more thicker milk; but then again, the price of $2 per glass was reasonable.
- Mango Payesh
- This was a cold rice pudding served in a bowl in the middle of mango sauce. This was refreshing and not sweet as most Indian desserts are (definitely not as sweet as the chai!). Quantity was enough for 2-3 people. I would definitely have this again.

A more recent art form, writings appeared on walls some thousands of years after drawings. From its invention to this day, writing has mainly persisted because of the protection that laws afford it.
The brush was the tool typically used for simple, innocuous writings on walls, but when resistance movements against authorities and censorship emerged, the medium of graffiti needed a more practical, swift means of artistic expression. Conveniently, in the early 1960s aerosol paint was introduced.
Modern day artists create two primary types of graffiti: free spraying and stencil graffiti. While free spraying requires a high degree of artistic ability, to create stencil graffiti one sprays paint across a stencil to form an image onto the surface underneath it.
Graffiti has remained faithful to the Syrian revolution since the beginning, even as security forces arrest and gun down graffitists. Revolutionary writings are still being painted on every public surface, even over the black paint that some forces use to cover up messages.
Writing was invented in Syria, so how could tyranny oppress it?

Business rates
Business rates (more properly known as the national non-domestic rates) are a national tax to help fund the cost of local services.
Quick links
Further information
Business Rates – 2017 budget announcement
The Chancellor of the Exchequer announced three measures to help businesses in his budget statement on 8 March. These are mainly intended to help those affected by the revaluation of properties, which is effective from 1 April, 2017. These measures are:
- Businesses which lose some or all of their small business rate relief will have increases in their bills limited to £50 per month in 2017/18. There will also be limits to increases in later years.
- Eligible pubs will receive a £1,000 discount on their bill for 2017/18.
- Local authorities have been provided with a fund of £300 million to support businesses that face the steepest increases in their rates bill as a result of the revaluation. The Government is consulting on how this scheme will work, but we expect the details of who will benefit will be left to local authorities to decide.
We are currently working on implementing the first and the third measure - updates will be published on this page. The relief for eligible pubs is currently being awarded, please see our 'Reliefs and exemptions' page for details.
Further information
Business rates are charged on most non-domestic premises, including commercial properties such as shops, offices, pubs, and industrial properties such as warehouses and factories.
For more information, please click on 'Business rates explanatory notes' above. Here you will also find details of the more favourable rules on small business rate relief effective from 1 April 2017.
For further information on the 2017 revaluation, please go to Revaluation 2017 and rateable value appeals.
Who pays business rates?
If you use a building, part of a building or even in some instances an area of land for business, you will probably have to pay business rates. Sometimes landlords will include business rates within the rent, but the bill will remain in the name of the occupier and not the landlord.

Take a look at the pieces from Supreme's latest collaboration.
Take a look at the pieces from Supreme's latest collaboration.
Text: Jake Viswanath
When Supreme does one of its numerous collaborations with other fashion brands the results end up being bold and brash yet highly coveted pieces, nearly always selling out in minutes. Today, the cult skate brand announced a collaboration with historic British outerwear brand Aquascutum, and the fruits of their labor are very subdued and traditional for Supreme.
Rather than Supreme-ify a major brand, this collaboration primarily takes cues from Aquascutum's classic outerwear, made since 1851. Key pieces from the limited capsule collection include button-up flannel shirts, vests, waterproof jackets, and a British football-inspired scarf. The collection primarily comes in traditional British shades of khaki, black, and gingham, with pops of Supreme red throughout to give it the brand's distinct character.
The standout piece is easily a timeless trench coat with the Supreme logo covertly embedded at the back, a perfect merging of the brand's ostentatious designs with Aquascutum's dedication to timeless and durable pieces.
Take a peek at the looks below before they go on sale on Thursday, October 13.
