How is this franchise still going after all these years?! When this all kicked off in 2003, the first Underworld movie had an intriguing concept behind it even though the execution was somewhat dull as a result. The second movie, Evolution, did improve slightly by expending upon the origins of the vampires and lycans, while the prequel, Rise of the Lycans, proved to be a solid war movie. Then we had Awakening, the fourth movie, which like the first film, had a great concept driving it, but the end result was severely lacking, and now with Blood Wars, we have what is quite possibly the worst entry in the franchise to date.
This feels very much like a filler movie with a plot that is nonsensical and all over the place and characters that are shifting loyalties left and right with no clear motivation as to why. It almost bordered on the lines of becoming a video game movie, and not in a good way. In truth the execution of every single aspect involved is flat and does nothing to improve or evolve the franchise in any clear way. Michael Corvin is mentioned and gets bumped off while the daughter is frequently referenced in a bid to make her some glorified plot device to increase tension but is nowhere to be seen except at the very end, thanks to some hokey CGI.
To be fair, the gothic surroundings are creatively inventive and atmospheric for a while and the idea of a Nordic coven of vampires is a fascinating concept, even though it feels as though it was ripped straight out of Game of Thrones, especially when all the coven look like the offspring of Khaleesi Targaryen. The CGI is horrible and looks worse when compared to the first movie (and that was 2003!), especially the horrendous man-wolf effects on poor Tobias Menzies. Even the action is lame in execution with a lot of jump-cutting and ridiculous wire-fu, which makes the lame action choreography in Assassin's Creed look like John Wick in comparison.
As far as the cast goes, none of them have anything great to work with and are all just left floundering around looking mean and moody. Kate Beckinsale was absolutely phenomenal in last year's Love and Friendship as it completely displayed her acting range, whereas here, she's trapped in an emotionless blank slate, despite the fact she still looks amazing in the tight black leather outfit after all these years. Divergent's Theo James feels awkward in his role as the rightful heir to the vampire throne, Charles Dance is there to pick up his overdue cheque, and Tobias Menzies looks bored out of his brain as one of the main villains of the film. Lara Pulver is somewhat interesting as the other main villain of the movie, even though her character is basically a vampire-coated, rip-off from her Sherlock character, right down to her being a dominatrix with one particular scene of sexual dominance coming across as being more awkwardly corny than stimulating.
Perhaps it's finally time to close the door on this franchise that was long past its sell-by-date; the core concept makes zero sense, is executed poorly, insulting to its own mythology and to make matters worse, they try to sequel-bait a sixth movie that will probably never happen (fingers crossed!). Granted it's not as abominable as Resident Evil: The Final Chapter or Fifty Shades Darker, but nevertheless, Underworld: Blood Wars comes across more as a major step backward than a step forward.

Authorities seek suspect in Horsham credit union armed robbery
Horsham, Pa. (WTXF) Authorities say they are seeking the public's help in identifying and locating a suspect in an armed robbery at a credit union in Horsham.
According to authorities, on Saturday, March 5th shortly after 9 a.m., the suspect entered the American Heritage Federal Credit Union branch on the 300 block of Maple Avenue in Horsham.
Investigators say the suspect approached the counter brandishing a black semi-automatic handgun in his left hand; he gave tellers a black bag and verbally demanded money. After obtaining an undisclosed amount of cash, the man fled the area in a gray sedan – possibly a Hyundai or Honda model, according to authorities.
The suspect wore a black full-face motorcycle helmet, concealing his age, race, and features; black jacket and "skinny" jeans; black gloves; and black and white Chuck Taylor-style sneakers. He is described as having a thin build.
This suspect is considered armed and dangerous. Anyone with information about this robbery or this subject is urged to call the FBI at 215-418-4000 or the Horsham Township Police Department at 215-643-8284.

Mumbai: Crisis-hit Maytas Infra on Monday said that the Company Law Board (CLB) has allowed it to report quarterly accounts for the current financial year by 30 June, 2010.
In a filing to the National Stock Exchange (NSE), Maytas Infra said that the CLB vide its order dated 31 December, 2009, granted extension of time up to 30 June, for publication of financial results of the company for the quarters ending September 2009, December 2009 and March 2010."
In view of certain impending issues such as corporate debt restructuring and the likely delay in publishing the quarterly financial results, the company had made an application to the CLB for the extension of time, it added.
In October 2009, the CLB had allowed the company to report its accounts for the quarter ended September by 31 December.
Last year, Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (IL&FS) took over Maytas Infra, a company founded by the kins of disgraced Satyam Computer founder B. Ramalinga Raju.
Disclosure of accounting fraud by Raju had its impact on Maytas Infra also and the company lost many contracts and slipped into dire straits.

The Best Album of 2014
Right, so it was right around this time last year that I declared Jaga Jazzist's Live With Britten Sinfonia the best album of 2013; so sure was I that there'd not be an album as bold, uplifting, emotional, riveting. And though, it was far early to tell - and of course there were many albums that meant as much or more - that record still figured super high on my end of year list. And still stands out on its own - there wasn't another record like it; there wasn't anything even close to sounding like it, to taking its place.
I'm calling the best album of 2014 - the one that will most likely mean the most to me - a week earlier this year. It's Dan Weiss' Fourteen.
My introduction to Dan Weiss was via his YouTube clips where he shows that influence/inspiration can come from anywhere, translating the rhythms of an auctioneer to drum kit.
Since then I've heard Weiss play in a variety of contexts - but this new album, his fifth as a leader (he's in demand as a session player and sit-in guy) is his masterpiece.
It's impossible to think of it as a jazz album, but impossible to imagine this album happening without jazz, so many of the players involved schooled in improvisation, trained in jazz.
But the album moves through so many genres, as if Weiss and his 14-member ensemble (hence the album's name) have ironed out jazz to find in the folds all manner of things - snippets of prog-rock thinking, classical arrangements, the fusion of eastern musical influences.
It doesn't sound at all like the Jaga Jazzist album - but I got a similar power from it, as a listener. A feeling that there wouldn't be anything to top the audacity of this, if not the actual sound...
So far it's my album of the year. And I doubt I'll hear another album with this much in it - with so much happening, and yet so controlled, so thoughtful, so focussed, and with so many star-turns, every player involved is vital, every musician working here offers their best and is so obviously the best of the best.
The only way there might be something equally as powerful and spiritual as this would be if Dan Weiss were to release another record this year.
So check it out.
I'd love to know what you think.
And have you heard an album already this year that you're sure - already - will be the best of 2014, or so close to the very top of the list?

Understanding Lower Limb Arterial Diseases
(Leg bypass to prevent amputation)
If your legs pain while walking, this may be the first indicator of a leg attack, known in medical terminology as peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
Arteries in the body can slowly become narrowed and blocked as a consequence of age, smoking, high blood cholesterol or diabetes. Blockage in the heart arteries can cause heart attack. Similar blockage in the leg arteries gives rise to leg attack.
In the initial stages of blockage, patients do not have any major problems and may attribute pain on walking (claudication) to old age, weak muscles or arthritis. However, if left undiagnosed and untreated, PAD often ends with severe rest pain and ulcers or gangrene and eventual amputation of the leg.
Who is at risk of PAD?
The risk of atherosclerosis increases with the following risk factors. If you have more than two of these risk factors, regular examination with an ABI test will detect PAD in early stages.
What can happen due to PVD?
The risk of atherosclerosis increases with the following risk factors. If you have more than two of these risk factors, regular examination with an ABI test will detect PAD in early stages.
In earlier times, patients with gangrene were advised for amputation of leg, either below or sometimes above the knee (Figure 5). But with newer advances in vascular surgery, procedures are now being performed to prevent amputation. After all, it's not your legs, it's your life!
How do you know if you have PAD?
After a careful questionnaire and examination, a vascular specialist will perform any of the following tests to diagnose and confirm PAD.
What treatment is effective in preventing amputations?
Apart from lifestyle changes and control of diabetes and hypertension, medical management is also useful in initial stages of PAD.
Minimally-invasive methods like angioplasty and stenting are shorter, less painful and result in reduced recovery time. They are now regularly used for treatment of leg arterial blockages.
Occasionally, surgeries like leg bypass are utilized for treatment . These procedures will not cure PAD, but they can improve the blood circulation to your legs and your ability to walk and thus prevent amputation.
No matter what your age, early diagnosis and treatment of vascular disease can improve the quality of your life.
We strongly recommend you to stay updated on the latest information and treatments in vascular care.
You never know when you need to know.
Vascular specialists provide care to patients with diseases or disorders of their blood vessels except the heart or brain. There are very few surgeons in India, trained in this specialty. -Dr. Sumit Kapadia

First at 441 Pine
And then at Golden Gate and Van Ness:
And now at Market Center:
When will the next domino fall?
First at 441 Pine
And then at Golden Gate and Van Ness:
And now at Market Center:
When will the next domino fall?
This is how things looked yesterday evening on Fell Street in the 94117. Do you see any warning signs about how everything parked on this stretch will get towed, with extreme prejudice, in a few hours?
Well sure. I can see:
AT&T / Verizon COWS temporary cell phone towers in the Golden Gate Park;
A whole mess of portapotties; und
A lot of metal fencing
But what about non-locals, your Airbnbers and your VRBOers – how should they be able to tell that they SHOULD NOT PARK HERE?
Well, off to the right, outside of the frame, there are a couple notices posted on light poles. And I'm sure that there are more notices at the other end of the block, near Masonic. But as far as what you can see on this side of this block, your notice is hiding behind the white Toyota Prius. Click on in, you might be able to spot the top of it.
Hey, is this sufficient notice?
One wonders.
What's this? It's just a simple massive 50-feet steel beam double-parked for a long time in front of historic million-dollar-plus mansions.
Why? Well, it's a part of the lengthy, noisy extension at THE URBAN SCHOOL, a private high school what costs three times (3x) as much as tuition at our University of California campuses.
And yet, nary a peep I've heard from the nabes.
Just saying…
The answer is that you live in the Inner Sunset. Sorry.
But if you want to say that you live in Windsor Terrace development or subdivision of the Inner Sunset, that'd be fine.
The thing is, he used to be a hobbit.
"Arguably the most significant development is his relationship with tech mogul Ron Conway, an early investor in Airbnb, the short-term vacation rental company. Sources say Lee and his staff have sometimes chafed at Conway's repeated boasts about his influence with the mayor, but couldn't refuse his money."

text: Recommendation for bandsaw for garage Dec 12, 2016 21:37:32 GMT -5 Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostMemberGive GiftBack to Top Post by naigon on Dec 12, 2016 21:37:32 GMT -5 Well, it's time to buy the next tool for the shop - a band saw. I pretty much realized I needed one when I was trying to cut through my 1.5" diameter derlin and after 10 minutes only made a small dent in it with the hacksaw I'm looking for a benchtop one, that cuts horizontally preferably. Ability to miter at different angles is a plus. I found this one which looks really nice but a bit pricy:www.trick-tools.com/Femi_782XL_Benchtop_Mitering_Bandsaw_F_782XL_000_00_0_000_2209I've also seen folks have bought the hand held band saws and built their own jigs or bought them, but that too seems like a lot of effort or money.Anyone else that has recommendations let me know.

Why choose us?
We are committed to providing the best in fuel cells and making the job of replacing them easier. We start by listening to your needs and giving you informative technical support. Then we provide the premium products and services you need to get the job done right the first time.
We sell original equipment (OEM) General Aviation fuel bladders (as a distributor) or our own manufactured PMA replacement fuel bladders when the original is not available. Either way you are guaranteed the highest quality available. We also have custom fuel cell manufacturing and major overhaul capabilities for experimental, Warbird or rare aircraft. Our customers receive a 10-year warranty and high quality installation kit with new OEM fuel cells and our new PMA and custom fuel cell replacements.
Our repair station is well respected for its consistent, quality factory overhauls and technical support. That's why we are ALWAYS busy! Although simple repairs are sometimes in order, we mainly perform factory overhauls. This process is more extensive than the simple patching methods common in the industry that have frustrated most mechanics. Our factory overhauls replace not only the leaking or damaged areas but also the weak areas that would leak in the near future. That is why we are able to offer a five-year warranty instead of one or two years—and stand behind it.
When you send us your current fuel cell, we offer a "no charge" evaluation. First, it is cleaned, tested and inspected. Then we give you the current condition of the cell, its life expectancy and your alternatives. We give you the feedback you need to make the best, informed decision. We call this kind of customer service just plain old honest advice—what we would want a knowledgeable friend to tell us.
Our FAA-approved and certified manufacturing and repair station operations are audited both internally and by the FAA. Additionally, all of our repair technicians hold FAA repairman certificates, participate in an approved Anti-drug & Alcohol Program and are consistently trained through our FAA approved training program.
We are genuinely committed to supporting general and corporate aviation safety and professionalism. Because of our extensive experience in aviation fuel cell technical support, we find ourselves in demand by the FAA and PAMA for speaking engagements across North America.
Look, we understand what a hassle it takes to pull old fuel cells out of their cavities. We've done it ourselves. We don't want YOU to have to do the job twice. We have a fantastic track record of getting it right the first time. That is why countless FBOs, service centers and associations around the globe trust, recommend and choose our company.

Director Bethany Rooney took time out of her busy schedule while she was in Vancouver directing an episode ofArrow to speak to a packed theatre of VFS students from Film Production, Writing for Film & Television, Acting for Film & Television, and Entertainment Business Management. Bethany's impressive list of director's credits include such long-running classics asBrothers & Sisters,Ally McBeal, andDesperate Housewives. With over 25 years in the business, the longevity of Bethany's career has defied Hollywood odds, where less than 15% of directors are women.
Shelley Stein-Wotten, a current Writing for Film & Television student, attended Bethany's presentation and shares her experience with us.
Guest post by Shelley Stein-Wotten
"Always create your best work and collaborate in a meaningful, respectful manner."
Sage advice from acclaimed television director Bethany Rooney, who graciously answered questions from VFS students during a recent presentation.
"If you can't collaborate," she said, "you shouldn't be in film-making."
Bethany has directed nearly 200 episodes of primetime television. As a freelance director, she travels from show to show, and has seven days for prep and eight or nine days to shoot. This season, she's directing episodes for eight different shows, including Arrow, Nashville, Hart of Dixie, and Criminal Minds. Bethany talked about how a director has to dive into the culture of each show, to learn and appreciate the unique storytelling methods and connect practically instantaneously with the producers, writers, cast, and crew.
She also has to be the leader.
"I walk onto a show, I may or may not know people, and seven days later, I'm the boss," she said.
With such a tall order, collaboration is obligatory, and, Bethany said, requires a two-pronged approach: first, pipe down and listen; second, offer intelligent ideas.
Collaboration permeates every aspect of creating television. As a writer keen on working in television, this was a valuable message for me to hear. Collaboration doesn't just happen in the writers' room when you're developing and scripting a story, it happens on set too. A good relationship between the director and the writer is essential and only makes the show better.
A story may germinate in a writer's hands, but each person involved—the director, the DP, the wardrobe stylist—puts their own subtle imprint on a show. With so many voices and creative approaches involved, positive communication and cooperation is critical—everybody needs to be on the same page as far as tone—and that's what contributes to making great television.
A big thank you to Bethany Rooney for her inspirational visit, and to Shelley for sharing her experience!

What i want is to change the color of

Is there any selectors for that? In addition to below selector, selecting a

thanks in advance!
A bit tricky, and you'll have to check yourself for the different browsers' support, but here is a Fiddle Demo for you :-)
<input type="text" placeholder="Name" />

Just moved the * to be a part of the :after element, and styled it separately.

Need programming help with Unix Fundamentals: Need to get this assignment done asap
The project team is ready to create the directory structure for the Web site. You are tasked with creating the directories and implementing the security mechanism. For this assignment, you need to create the following directory structure and permissions:
Ensure that you are starting in your individual Home directory:
+- apache/
|- bin/
|- conf/
|- lib/
+- www/
| - html/
| - cgi-bin/
| - ftp/
The following file permission should be enabled for the directories:
- The owner can read, write and execute All.
- The group can read and execute All Directories.
- Everyone else can only read and execute the files in Apache only (and no permissions in www).
- Change the www/ftp directory to allow the User and group to read, write, and execute, but everyone else to only write to the directory.
In addition, create the following empty files and set the following file permissions:
apache/bin/httpd - 755
www/html/index.html - 644
www/cgi-bin/process.pl - 711
Finally, create a file called apache/conf/httpd.conf, and add the following lines to the file:
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file. It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path.
ServerRoot "/usr"
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your documents.
DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents"
Save the file and exit the editor. Set the file permission for this file to be: 664.
Show the command used to show content of the file and the content of the file.
Using the grep command, write comment to find the line containing the word(s) ServerRoot and DocumentRoot in the httpd.conf file.
Write a sed command that will change the ServerRoot value from /usr to the absolute directory patch for your apache directory.
Write a sed command that will change the Document value from /Library/WebServer/Documents to the absolute directory patch for your www directory.
Write an awk command that will print only the comment field and the login id of all users in the /etc/passwd file in this format: <Comment Field> - <login id>.
Your submission should include the following, as well as a description about each step (what you did and why you are performing each command):
- All commands to create the above structure
- Changing to your Home directory
- Creating the directories
- Creating the empty files
- Changing all file permissions
- Show the directory list of the new structure, including a list of permissions
- A grep, sed, and awk command

Not all tweens and teens with learning and attention issues struggle with social skills. But for those who do, a school dance can be tricky territory. Here are common pitfalls and tips for avoiding them.
Warn your child that some kids do risky and inappropriate things at a dance. This can include drinking or doing drugs out of view of supervising adults. Talk to your child about what to do if this happens. Remind him not to join the "cool" kids if he's tempted by a dare, boredom or the desire to be accepted.
Many kids avoid asking someone to dance for fear of being turned down. Help your child prepare for this situation. Encourage her not to take being turned down personally. Suggest that she just invite someone else to dance, and help her brainstorm about friends she could ask. "What about Jake? You guys have fun in band together. Maybe he'd be a good person to ask to dance."
A school dance can be a lot to process, especially for kids with sensory processing issues. The music is usually loud, and there may be lots of bright colors and strobe lights. If your child is hyperactive or sensitive to stimulation, talk to her about how she can avoid feeling overwhelmed. She might plan to retreat to the restroom or hallway, or huddle with friends, when she needs a break.
Asking another child to dance can feel awkward. It probably isn't something your child does every day! You can help your child by practicing what to say and do, ahead of time. Ask your child "Would you like to dance?" and hold out your hand. Practice taking her hand and walking out onto a dance floor so your child will know what to do if she's asked to dance. Remind her to smile and make eye contact.
Kids might not understand how close to dance with a partner or where to put their hands on a partner's body. In some high schools, kids might be "grinding" in a sexually suggestive way instead of dancing. Practice dancing with your child, including how far apart to stand and where the hands should go. She can also watch YouTube videos to try new dance moves, or invite friends over so they can practice dance moves before the day of the school dance.
Sometimes kids ask someone to a dance so they have another person to go with, but then ignore their date once there. Or they get so excited at a dance that they forget to pay attention to their date. Remind your child that it's not nice to "ditch" a date. While she doesn't need to spend the whole evening with him, it would be good to talk awhile and dance at least a few songs with him.
Kids with learning and attention issues are likely to face the same challenges in religion classes as they do in their regular classes at school. Use these tips to make your child's experience a positive one.
Some kids with learning and attention issues may have trouble with playground social rules and equipment. Here are common playground problems and how to help your child avoid them.

BB Cream & CC Cream Team: The benefits of the new generation cosmetics
Hi beautiful,
The cosmetic industry fights for your rights! And there's nothing new that it is trying the best ways to mix skin care with makeup in order to invent that perfect cosmetic product which, applied in an instant, will both, care and improve the aspect of your complexion.
Just like that: easy to use and very efficient. And the first step was made with the creation of the BB Cream and CC Cream, which made a revolution in the beauty field!
One of the most comfortable cosmetic products became the summer essential for women. But it is perfect for the cold season, as well. The only thing you need to do is to find the one that works perfectly on your skin type.
Identifying the right cosmetics for the skin type is a challenge to anyone. But if you follow some good advice, your mission will become much easier. It is important for you to know when you choose a tinted moisturizer that BB Creams are usually made for dry and mature skin and CC Cream formulas are more appropriate to oily and sensitive skin types or for those with acne problems.
Still, there are some BB and CC Creams which can be used on any type of complexion, with a high tolerance level on the skin and with a good coverage due to its active ingredients which treat and improve the skin texture. The CC Cream from Charlotte Lacroix Red Tea Collection is the new generation of 5-benefits in one cream that moisturizes, corrects, soothes, protects and perfects your skin, coming in 2 shades: Light or Medium. This CC Cream combines a few ingredients that help your skin have the perfect matching tone and be irreproachable all day long: Shea Butter - a rich source of antioxidants that help the skin inhibits the oxidization of skin cells, which in turn, prevents free radicals from overwhelming the cells; Rosemary & Chamomile Extract - which reduces any inflammation the skin may have, calms down the muscle and therefore eliminates signs of fatigue.
The reason why you should choose BB Creams and CC Creams if you have oily skin with acne problems is that these formulas don't block the pores like other cosmetics do, keep the moisturizing level of the skin, hide the imperfections and scars and have a mattifying effect. This type of skin needs a long-lasting foundation with a high coverage which also controls the sebum excess. Use a water-based, oil-free BB Cream or CC Cream, made of moisturizing and homogenizing agents, which improve the skin tone.
The water-based formulas with non-comedogenic ingredients are also perfect choices. Use one which is oil free, paraben free, silicone free and unscented. These ingredients or other irritating substances can cause serious damage to an acne invaded complexion.
So, if you want to play safe all seasons, BB and CC Cream formulas can give you this option.
With love,

Marco Estrada and the Blue Jays have agreed to a one-year, $13 million extension with the Blue Jays, reports Jon Morosi of MLB.com. Last night Morosi reported that the sides were near a deal.
This extension is, functionally, like adding a year on to his old deal, which paid him $26 million for the 2016-17 seasons. As Bill noted last night. while the 34-year-old right-hander has a subpar 4.84 ERA on the season, he has a solid 170/67 K/BB ratio in 176.2 innings this year and has improved in the second half.

This is part of a large campaign backed by the Sox, the Boston Bruins, Boston Celtics, New England Patriots and New England Revolution "featuring athletes calling on fans to take a stand against racism and hate speech at sports venues."
This comes in the wake of a group of protesters hanging an anti-racism banner in Fenway Park last week which, in turn came a few months after Adam Jones, like many visiting players of color before him, claimed that racial epithets were hurled at him by fans in the Fenway bleachers.
Red Sox CEO Sam Kennedy tells the globe that the Jones incident is what inspired the PSA campaign:
"When the incidents in May occurred, one of the first things we recognized was sports teams are high-profile, and we have the opportunity to help lead a high-level discussion around this," he said. "We wanted to take the lead in taking a stand against racism."

Gallery Thumbnail resizing: variation in pixel dimensions
I'm adding a new page to my site with a gallery. I'm using Gallery Plus and Lightbox 2. Previously I've let the plugin autocrop images but for this page I'm cropping some specifically and letting some crop by default. When the thumbnails appear on the page their pixel dimensions change depending on what I did or did not do to them. The defaults are 100×150, but ones that I have cropped myself appear with varying sizes, I would like them to all be the same size.
All images are the same height but vary in width.
I have used these plugins to create a portfolio on another page, if it has something to do with using different plugins instead of the ones I mentioned that would be fine, just means remaking the portfolio.
Thanks for your time.

Running blind
I had a dead battery epiphany last week on my evening run. My GPS battery went out after 2 miles, but I decided to go ahead and run my 10 miles anyway and figure out my average pace at the end. Usually I'm watching my real time pace and trying to stay at 8:50, which would mean beating the 2 hour barrier in the half marathon coming up.
Without being able to watch my watch that night, I ran a little faster than usual… to make sure I wouldn't go over 9-minute pace. When I got home, I was surprised to see that I had run an 8:11 pace for 10 miles, way faster than I thought I was capable of! I had convinced myself that I was an 8:50 runner for so long that I was living up to that limited expectation.
Breaking 2-hours in a half marathon is a goal that has eluded me for 3 years. Each time I have made a costly mistake or suffered an injury that kept the 2-hour mark just out of reach. I have turned in times of 2:06, 2:04 and 2:02, all respectable times for an amateur runner of my age, but they all start with "2."
Today, on a misty cool San Francisco morning, I set out once more to achieve this goal. This course goes across the Golden Gate Bridge and includes serious hills, making it even more of a challenge. Just before the starting gun at 5:32am, I thought back to my dead battery episode and did something very out of character for me. I turned off my GPS and my watch so that I was "running blind" again. I took a deep breath, and visualized crossing the finish line at 1:55.
I ran with purpose. I ran with focus. I ran with freedom from fear. You see, since I was now NOT afraid of NOT exceeding 2 hours, I was able to purely picture success at 1:55. I did not even look for the mile markers along the way.
As I came up into Golden Gate Park, I knew the end was near, and sprinted the last 300 yards or so. And as the finish line clock came into focus, I saw 1:54 and pumped my fist in the air. I crossed at almost exactly 1:55 for 13.1 miles.
Have you possibly imposed artificial limits on what you are capable of? Measuring progress is important, but have you been staring too closely at a watch or a scale and getting frustrated? I'm taking another look at how I am attacking my goals now. Perhaps preventing the self-fulfilling prophecy is the key to fulfilling oneself.

Congrats on your time and your accomplishment. Above all, this is the 'live' version of "It's not about the destination, it's the journey" – did you realize that? People say it, but they don't walk the talk. Not only did you walk it, you ran it. Instead of solely being focused on the time itself, it IS about running with purpose. As we live our lives, this is really how LIFE should be lived…. lived with purpose. This is about every word being purposeful, every action even more so. If we are actually more conscious about what we do and don't say; and we are aware of what we do and don't do as a way of 'being' in life, we live a better life. We actually show up as the best version of ourselves – and that ultimately is WHY we are here, to be our best selves. When we are our best selves, we learn more and we actually have more to give back as an end result, because we will have learned with such dedication and focus to actually be 'present.'

I am a plant ecophysiologist interested in the mechanisms that permit plants to survive when times are tough. I have a particular focus on how the roughly 6% of plant species that exhibit a water-conserving type of photosynthesis known as crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) respond to temperature, water-limitation and to changing concentrations of atmospheric CO2. I study Australian CAM clades, species in Central America (in collaboration with Klaus Winter at STRI, Panama), and most recently, SE Asian and New Guinea groups with collaborators in Singapore, PNG and Oxford. Australian species with CAM include many epiphytic orchids and hoyas, ant-plants, succulents of coastal and inland saline areas, temperate and tropical Calandrinia from across the continent, and a few fresh-water species.
I am also (i) assisting in evaluating growing Agave as a biofuel feedstock crop in the seasonally-dry tropics of Australia. An Australian industry partner, AusAgave, and I are currently trialling an Agave crop for biomass production, a world first, and (ii) participating in a project that attempts to understand how Australian lowland rainforest may respond to increasing water-limitation.
Long-term projects include a census of Australian CAM species and determining how many orchids and hoyas exhibit CAM and what are the phylogenetic and environmental connections between those species.
In collaboration with Dr Jon Luly (JCU) and Prof Michelle Waycott (Adelaide), I am also attempting to understand the functional biology of Australia's tallest desert tree, Acacia peuce.

Australia's distinctive succulent flora
- Indicative Funding
- $364,400 over 3 years
- Summary
- We will investigate why Australia, the driest vegetated continent, has no landscape dominated by large succulents but nevertheless supports a distinctive, diverse and widespread succulent flora. Focusing on terrestrial succulents and epiphytic orchids, we will explore the evolution, assembly and biodiversity of Australia?s succulent flora, evaluating the roles of genetic composition, photosynthetic physiology, aridity, fire, soil nutrients and salinity in its historical expansion, and assessing the resilience of the assemblages to changing climate. Of particular interest will be how the most water-use efficient type of photosynthesis, crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), is expressed across the succulent landscape.

Nitrogen economy of the vulnerable rainforest sundew Drosera schizandra
- Indicative Funding
- $1,746
- Summary
- The project will investigate the acquisition of nitrogen (N) and prey capture by the rainforest carnivorous sundew Drosera schizandra. D. schizandra is one of only three rainforest species of carnivorous sundews in the world and endemic to Mount Bartle Frere of Wooroonooran National Park. Captured prey will be identified and measured to detect prey composition and biomass. Using N isotope ratios, the project will determine the relative contributions of prey and soil N. The outcome of the project will contribute to the ecology of rainforest carnivorous sundew and better understanding on N plasticity of the few rainforest sundews.

Interactions among fungi, ants, and the ant-plant Myrmecodia beccarii
- Indicative Funding
- $3,000
- Summary
- Myrmecodia beccarii is a vulnerable endemic ant-plant of far north Queensland. This ant-plant provides ants with housing in specialised tunnels and chambers. Fungi were discovered in these chambers almost 40 years ago but their identity and functional roles have never been determined. I will explore the ecological interactions among fungi, ants and M. beccarrii to establish and define this tripartite mutualism. To do this, I will conduct field work to determine the distribution of fungal species within M.beccarii and field/greenhouse experiments to investigate the interactions and functional roles of fungi. The results will be used to inform the conservation of M. beccarri.

Response and vulnerability of tropical rainforest plants to experimental drought
- Indicative Funding
- $365,000 over 3 years
- Summary
- How will tropical forests respond if droughts should increase in the future? In a globally unique experiment, we will induce artificial rough in an Australian tropical rainforest and then use a canopy crane to assess plant responses at all vertical forest layers. We will contrast demographic and physiological responses of an array of plant species and functional groups, compared to nearby experimental-control plots where tree growth, composition, soil water and atmospheric exchange have been monitored since 1999. Drought responses for key species and functional groups will be compared with their distributions across regional rainfall gradients to yield novel insights into potential rainforest responses to future climate change.

New York Times Recommends MOoW as a Don't Miss Destination
Even the venerable New York Times is getting with the program of adaptive re-use. A listing in their April 27th edition encourages readers to visit Made Out of WHAT's pavilion in Times Square during Design Pavilion, and we couldn't be happier.
You're all invited to stop by, see some amazing examples of artist work, meet the team and talk trash. We'll be open for business May 18-22, 2017 near the intersection of 43rd Street and 7th Avenue.
April 27, 2017
Taking the Trash to Times Square NYC
(VENICE, CA) In an unconventional twist, a California-based non-profit is taking the opposite tactic of depositing its trash into New York City's Times Square. Made Out of WHAT, an organization dedicated to transforming society's perception of post-industrial waste, showcases artists who use discarded materials to make beautiful objects. A portable exhibition built entirely of recycled materials will be assembled on a triangular island at 7th Avenue and 43rd Street between May 18-22, 2017 as part of Design Pavilion NYC, an annual outdoor event. Inside the hexagonal pavilion a display of the artist works made from upcycled materials can be seen.
"Of course we'll take it away when we're done," says Denise Domergue, Made Out of WHAT's founder and guiding light. "But while it's there people can get a look at some of the truly inspired things people are doing with transformed trash." The organization hopes to spread the message that adaptive re-use is the wave of the future, a creative alternative to the problem of toxic landfills and widespread environmental pollution.
Made Out of WHAT aims to grow an international initiative with participants and contributors from all over planet earth.
