In the last fifteen years, scholars have pointed to ways in which states (especially imperialist states) use museums to showcase looted artefacts, to document their geographic expansion, to present themselves as the guardians of national treasure, and to educate citizens and subjects. At the same time, a great deal of attention has been paid to reshaping national histories and values in the wake of the collapse of the Communist bloc and the emergence of the European Union. (Re)Visualizing National History considers the wave of monument and museum building in Europe as part of an attempt to forge consensus in politically unified but deeply divided nations.This collection explores ways in which museums exhibit emerging national values and how the establishment of these new museums (and new exhibits in older museums) reflects the search for a consensus among different generational groups in Europe and North America. The contributors come from a variety of countries and academic backgrounds, and speak from such varied perspectives as cultural studies, history, anthropology, sociology, and museum studies. (Re)Visualizing National History is a unique and interdisciplinary volume that offers insights on the dilemmas of present-day European culture, manifestations of nationalism in Europe, and the debates surrounding museums as sites for the representation of politics and history.

A dental bridge is a restoration that can be used to replace just one missing tooth or a few missing teeth in a row (usually up to three teeth). While the most common type of dental bridge is fixed (non-removable), we offer both fixed and removable dental bridges at Couture Smiles Dental Group to accommodate your personal dental needs and preferences. There are three main types of dental bridges that we may suggest to restore your smile:
- A traditional dental bridge—This type of bridge is made up of one or more artificial teeth and two dental crowns, which are placed on the teeth neighboring the gap in order to anchor the artificial tooth (called a pontic).
- A cantilever bridge—This kind of dental bridge is used when the missing tooth has remaining natural teeth on only one side.
- A resin-bonded bridge—This type of bridge is made of plastic teeth and gums supported by a metal framework.
Our skilled dentists, Drs. Terteryan, Gordon, and Fahid will carefully examine your smile to determine which type of dental bridge in Woodland Hills, California, is right for your specific needs. A dental bridge can be a great choice for restoring the function, appearance, and health of your smile. To learn more, we welcome you to contact us today. We are eager to restore your complete, beautiful smile!

Brothers stab 25-yr-old seeking relationship with their sister
Besides getting enraged by the victim's attempt to establish a relation with their sister, the brothers and the victim had been nursing past enmitymumbai Updated: Sep 08, 2016 14:04 IST
Two brothers attacked 25-year-old man with a knife on Wednesday evening for trying to get into a relationship with their sister. While the attackers have been detained, the victim is currently undergoing treatment at the KEM Hospital.
According to officials from DN Nagar police station, the incident occurred around 5pm in Gilbert hill area, Andheri (West). The accused were identified as Salim Farid Shaikh, 22, and his brother (name withheld, as the police are checking whether he is a minor or not ). The victim Imran Ajiiz Chaus, 25, has a couple of theft cases registered against him.
Besides getting enraged by the victim's attempt to establish a relation with their sister, the Shaikh brothers and Chaus had been nursing past enmity. The brothers attacked Chaus with a knife, following which he sustained injuries to his hands and head, which was serious. Chaus was initially rushed to the Cooper Hospital and was later shifted to KEM.
A case has been registered under section 307 (attempt to murder) of the Indian Penal Code.

Juan Smith named to start for the Springboks
Flanker Juan Smith will return to test rugby with South Africa 18 months after being forced to retire because of a chronic ankle injury and nearly four years after his last international.
The 2007 World Cup winner was named on Wednesday (local time) in South Africa's starting team for the Rugby Championship test against Argentina in Salta on Saturday (local time), completing his return to the test arena when it appeared he would never play at any level again.
Smith said his career was over in February 2013 after struggling for two years with an Achilles' tendon injury. However, he made a surprise recovery, was given a trial by French club Toulon and won the Heineken Cup and French league last season.
Smith was selected in place of Marcell Coetzee and was one of three changes to the starting XV from the Springboks' opening-round win against the Argentines in Pretoria last weekend. Coach Heyneke Meyer also brought in Gurthro Steenkamp at loosehead prop for Tendai Mtawarira and Eben Etzebeth at lock for Bakkies Botha.
Coetzee, Mtawarira and Botha all dropped to the bench. Meyer also included wing Lwazi Mvovo in the reserves.
The 33-year-old Smith, a pivotal player for South Africa when it won the World Cup in France seven years ago, made his last test appearance at the end of 2010 before sitting out two full seasons with the Achilles injury.
He was given a late call-up to Meyer's squad for this Rugby Championship and is now set to run out for what was considered an unlikely 70th test appearance.
He joins a South African forward pack that was subdued when the No 2-ranked Springboks struggled to beat Argentina 13-6 at Loftus Versfeld. Saturday's return fixture in Argentina's northeastern city of Salta will be an even greater test for the South Africans, who have been pushed close in Argentina over the past two seasons. The teams drew 16-16 in Mendoza in 2012 and South Africa only narrowly won 22-17 last season.
"We're looking forward to the challenge," coach Meyer said. "Although we were happy with the result in Pretoria, we were not happy with the performance and this is an opportunity to show improvement against a tough opponent away from home."
South Africa's backline was unchanged, with centre Damian de Allende picked for his second international and wing Bryan Habana set to play his 99th test.
SOUTH AFRICA: Willie le Roux, Cornal Hendricks, Damian de Allende, Jean de Villiers (captain), Bryan Habana, Handre Pollard, Ruan Pienaar; Duane Vermeulen, Juan Smith, Francios Louw, Lood de Jager, Eben Etzebeth, Jannie du Plessis, Bismarck du Plessis, Gurthro Steenkamp. Reserves: Adriaan Strauss, Tendai Mtawarira, Frans Malherbe, Bakkies Botha, Marcell Coetzee, Francois Hougaard, Morne Steyn, Lwazi Mvovo

Beyond Salsa for Ensemble - Cuban Rhythm Section Exercises
Piano - Bass - Drums - Timbales - Congas - Bongó
Authored by Kevin Moore
Edition: 2
At 368 pages, Beyond Salsa for Ensemble, Vol. 1 is the most ambitious of the 15 volume series. The course is designed for college and high school Latin music ensembles and working salsa bands seeking to add modern Cuban "timba" and "songo" material and techniques to their repertoires.
The course begins with the basic salsa groove and then presents two modern Cuban grooves (one in 2-3 clave and one in 3-2 clave), with note-for-note transcriptions for piano, bass, bongó, timbales, congas, and drums - all explained in careful detail in a conversational style.
The next part of the book teaches 36 rhythm breaks, or "efectos", that can be added to any Latin arrangement. Again, every stroke of every part is meticulously transcribed, with lead sheets also provided for more experienced players.
Finally, the book contains a complete chart for performance of a popular Cuban hit by the popular group Los Que Son Son, led by Pupy Pedroso, the subject of several of the Beyond Salsa Piano books.

Talking DH into baby no 2(26 Posts)
I have a 19mn ds and am desperate to start trying for a second baby. Despite my dh originally also wanting two he now is not sure because the first 6months of being parents almost ended our marriage. I'm finding his indecision hard, I'm getting older and struggled to conceive first time round and don't want a big age gap. I don't know what to say to him, I can't promise that it won't be hard but I feel like we must have both learnt from our previous experiences
I would love some advice.
You still have a very young child. What do you mean by had difficulty conceiving? Ivf? How old are you?
I'm 35, conceived naturally but took 2yrs due to PCOS
Sorry, but this is not a subject you talk someone into - of either sex. You may talk about it, but it should be open and honest. You say why you want a second child, he gets to express his concerns about why he doesn't. His reasons may be equally valid as yours. I suspect your reason for wanting a child is simply "because I want one" and his reason for not wanting one will be "last time nearly destroyed our marriage".
Both views are valid. Your wishes do not outweigh his. If he is adamant at not wanting another child, you have two options - you learn to accept your family is the three of you, or your split up your family so you can have another child with someone else or by sperm donor. Remember your decision also impacts on your existing child.
This is not "I'd like to go here on holiday, my husband wants to go there, how do I talk him round to my location" as we're talking creating a new life.
You are " desperate " and he's " not sure " .
This is not a good basis to bring another baby into the world .
You can't 'talk DH into' creating another DC.
Speak to him about your concerns and let him tell you his.
Then see where you are at.
Reverse it. How would you feel if your DH tried to talk you into something you really didn't want to do, completely disregarding your reasons for not wanting it?
You can't talk him into it. If one child you both wanted almost ended your marriage, then a child only one of you wants is not going to go any better.
No you can't talk him into it, because when it gets hard (and with a 2/3 year old and a newborn it WILL get hard) your dp will resent you for convincing him to do something he didn't really want to do and then he'll blame you when life is hard which iant fair on anyone. You can talk about it though, maybe he'd be happier to try again in say a year or 2 so ds would be more independent?
I know how you feel, I really wanted another and dp not so much but now ds is nearly 3 dp has decided that another is a good idea but I didn't talk him into it.
It sounds like he has well-founded reasons for his stance at the moment. If your relationship was strained with just one baby, I'm sorry to say that it will be more difficult when you add in a second, considering that you will have a pre-schooler as well. He may be rightly thinking "what if we have twins"?
I would suggest enjoying what you have now and seeing how things pan out over the next 6-12 months. Your child is still very young.
If it almost ended you the first time, add another in the mix and it's a recipe for disaster. Trust me.
What happened on the first 6 months? Are things better now?
You have good reasons for wanting to ttc soon and I can understand your concern if Dh has changed his mind. I would try to talk about it in a non confrontational way to get a sense of if he means later or never.
We agreed to have 2dc with 2 year age gap. It was very very tough in first year. It is not a bad thing to have a bigger age gap but I totally get why you would rather not wait.
I always find it baffling how people think they can plan how many children they're going to have.. It's completely naive and unrealistic.
OP If one baby nearly wrecked your marriage, another is only going to make things harder not easier. IMO it would be extremely unfair on your DH and LO to try and push this. Maybe in time, as your LO gets older DH might change his mind, but that's something only he can do, not you. It's unfair for you to try and do it for him!
We are expecting our 2nd DC this year. Our DS was a really easy baby and now toddler but it put us through the mill. We both decided to try again together having talked through all the pitfalls and challenges. I wouldn't have done it if DH hadn't been 100% behind it because it wouldn't have been fair on him or DS.
We decided to start trying and got pregnant on the first attempt! This was despite enduring 5 years of heartbreak to get DS. We were both stunned
and slightly gutted because we were looking forward to lots of baby making sex and the morning sickness pretty much landed instantly!
Because you've had issues doesn't mean you will next time. But don't go down the path of we'll see what happens as a compromise because you could get pregnant quickly and your DH may feel railroaded.
I've never understood the argument of walking away to have another child if your partner doesn't want another. Surely the child you do have should be the priority and breaking up their family for this reason isn't in their best interests. Maybe I'm just old fashioned (bring back the tweed jacket ).
I would never bully him into having a second child, but am finding it difficult that he won't talk to me about it, and I don't know whether it's not now or not ever. I appreciate that things were very difficult with our first, but I feel that we were both naive first time parents and have learnt a lot, and that no two babies are the same, a second child would be challenging but for different reasons. Additional our ds was EMCS so we had our mums on a rota living with us for 2months as I recovered which really knocked my confidence and put an additional strain on things, but he doesn't acknowledge this a partial cause of problems.
'Mums living in on a rota for 2 months'
blimey no wonder he is reluctant.
I'd enjoy your toddler together now, rather than concentrating on trying to convince him to talk about trying again.
I'd give it some time.
Hmmmmm... This needs to be talked over seriously. The flip side is that if you just accept his not wanting a second child then you may well become very resentful and that won't bode well for your marriage either! Is it only your marriage that he's worried about or is fatherhood not what he anticipated? I truly think all the pros and cons should be very carefully weighed up.
I realise that this isn't applicable to everyone but I do believe that giving your child a sibling offers them some sort of support, companionship and understanding in their lives. It also helps with sharing of family responsibilities/ grieving etc especially when older. I find my sister a huge source of comfort and have done throughout my life. I always wanted 3 children but my DH will not come around to the 3rd. If he had stopped after one I would have been devastated and it would definitely have impacted our marriage.
All of this needs to be properly discussed between you before any lasting decisions are made.
I completely agree with what you have said Whimsical1975. Those are my views on siblings. I worry that a decision not to have a second child would also have negative consequences on our marriage. It probably already is as I feel v anxious not knowing. But I'm not sure how to communicate this without it sounding like me trying to blackmail him into it!
Additionally I've been having a rough time at work, but decided to stick it out as the maternity package is good and the company v family friendly. A decision which I thought DH supported, but that feels like mixed messages.
I wouldn't want to "talk" my dh in to another baby. It has to be something you both want.
Enjoy your 19month old, have fun being parents for now. Give it some time and then chat over future children
It sounds to me like this marriage is in serious trouble because you think not having a second child would have negative consequences on your marriage and your husband thinks having a second child would have negative consequences.
Perceived wisdom on MN is that the partner not wanting a baby trumps the one who does want a baby. If you really can't accept only having one child, and that you would resent your husband over it, then the marriage will fail because you'll probably leave him to give you that chance of another child. Bearing in mind your age, how difficult it was to conceive last time and the likelihood of finding another partner (again, bearing in mind your age and urge to conceive quickly due to "age gap") you may find you leave your husband and end up without a second child and your current child has to split time between living with one parent in the week and another at weekends.
By the way, you do know lots of people are perfectly content with one child and that one child does not grow up with problems or issues because it didn't have siblings, don't you?
^^ what Still said about only children.
Whilst there are loads of people who have positive sibling relationships there are an equal number of those that don't.
I think I titled this poorly. I don't want to bully my dh into another child he doesn't want. But I feel that feeling overwhelmed, alone, anxious etc in the first few months of being a mum can't be that unusual, and neither can letting that affect your marriage or taking it out on your OH. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm being overly optimistic but I believe things could be different second time round.
I'm 35 - have a 14 month old. In going to wait till the end of next year to try for another as the thought of two too close together tips me over the edge lol. I must admit though my main reason for wanting another is because in adulthood, I hate being an only child (both my parents have passed away). Could you wait maybe a couple of years and see how he feels about it then?
No you're right it is really normal for a the first few months of having a new baby the be very stressful and that does take a toll on a marriage but it will be just as stressful with number 2 too, although now you do have the benefit of knowing exactly what.to expect and more importantly that it's a phase of readjustment that does end, at the time of having DS I remember worrying wtf had i done to my life
I don't think it's a question of one persons views trumping the others. But the biological facts are that only the woman can conceive, give birth and breast feed .
And the social norm is that the vast majority of parenting is done by the mother.
And women's careers , incomes, savings, pensions and social life are adversely affected by parenthood much more than men's .
So in general another child will change the mother's life far more than the fathers.
But unfortunately there's no compromise between having a baby and not having a baby .
If you end up with a baby like my first born (cries constantly, up every hour to two hours for the first 8 months plus, needs to be moved about and talked to constantly, screams constantly, up from 4am and on the go go go all the way up until bedtime for the next few YEARS past toddlerhood), you'll be screwed. I'm so, so lucky my other two after him are easy, it would've destroyed me having another high needs child.

Overall, a good place to stay for a short trip. Jenny was there on time for check-in. The neighborhood is safe. The photos fit the description of the room well. The room is clean with a shower, bed, desk and a clean towel. Air-conditioning was not the best and it was a little too warm/humid for me. Although a kitchen did exist, it is not well-stocked. So either bring your own utensils and cups if you are planning to stay for a while or go out and eat. It's definitely worth the price you pay assuming you want to stay in Gaithersburg for a bit. Oh yeah, unlike me, remember to not park on the drive way.Chingun2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

Wonderful hostess with great communication! Kalle made us feel welcome in her home and she went above and beyond our expectations. The accommodations were just as stated, so it was very easy to travel with children. The bedroom, pull out couch and small bed (top of bunk bed) accommodated our family well. Everything was very clean. Great location! Her home was a very quick drive to the Metro station. It took us less than five minutes to get there. From there, it was about 25-35 minutes to Metro Center (downtown DC). Great value! There was plenty of space, definitely bigger than an average hotel room. Kitchen includes microwave, refrigerator, toaster oven, coffee pot, dishes and silverware for four people, as well as pot holders, paper towels, teas and sugar, dish soap, dish towel and miscellaneous cleaning supplies. It was very nice to be able to eat in meals to save time and money. Kalle went to great lengths to make a binder with information about the accommodations, area information and attractions. It proved to be very helpful. This was our first Airbnb experience and it will definitely not be our last. Thank you, Kalle, for making the kids' first trip to DC so comfortable, safe and memorable.Lindsay2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

Wonderful welcoming host. Modest but clean. Nice artwork. Great value for the proce.Julie2017-03-23T00:00:00Z
Ying était très poli et compréhensif que nous allions vérifier en retard en raison de voyager de New York. La chambre / salle de repos était très propre et situé dans un quartier très sûr pour la recherche d'un parking gratuit. Hautement recommandé! Nous reviendrons à coup sûr la place de Ying quand nous voyageons vers DC à nouveau.Alyssa2017-05-27T00:00:00Z

Irek and Ryoko are very welcoming and I recommend their Airbnb highly. Private airy room, with everything you will need to make your stay comfortable!Matthew2017-01-21T00:00:00Z
Wonderful room (more like an entire basement) with superfast wi-fi. Irek was extremely responsive to email and even stayed up late one night to let me in. There is a widescreen TV and DVD player that I used to unwind at night. Overall, a very pleasant experience.Shurjo2017-04-23T00:00:00Z
Lovely accommodations and wonderfully friendly and kind hosts. Everything was clean and comfortable. I would definitely stay again.Cathy2017-01-12T00:00:00Z
Irek and Ryoko have a very comfortable home and AirBnB space. I think it would be ideal for longer term arrangements. If you stay during the cold months, I suggest you bring good slippers as the floor can be quit cold. Also, once their pet dog gets to know you, he will settle down. All in all, worthy of a repeat.Mike2016-12-21T00:00:00Z

Jenny's place is very clean and only 1000 feet away from Fredrick Avenue. The people are really nice and willing to help whenever you need it. I really love this place and would definitely live here again and recommended for anyone who want home feeling environmentMar2017-06-24T00:00:00Z
You get what you pay for. I lived at the place for about 3 weeks. I would recommend it for short term stays as it (barely) provided the very basic necessities. Pros: The WiFi is pretty quick. Cheap Cons: Kitchen cleanliness can be an issue. Tap water available in the kitchen is not the cleanest. The room has a small fan NOT an air conditioner.Apoorv2017-08-19T00:00:00Z
Jenny's place is great, complete privacy, clean and very accessible to transportation and shops, I will definitely stay here again!Marco2017-08-26T00:00:00Z

Kathy's listing was as it was advertised and worked out perfectly for my stay. I just relocated to the area and stayed for 4 weeks. I would recommend staying here to everyone.Jim2016-09-30T00:00:00Z
当然,还有一个原因,凯西是一个超级主机。我发短信给她,当我来到她马上帮我找到一个停车位。我没有机会见到她,但我被她的两个美丽的猫科动物的欢迎。她的地方是完美无暇的和有组织的。一个地方,我会极力推荐!Abdulelah 2016-08-17T00:00:00Z
The place is very cozy with great interior. You would definitely need a car to stay at Kathy's place but it worth it. Kathy is an experienced AirBnB hoster with amazingly beautiful house. Definitely recommend.Vlad2015-11-22T00:00:00Z

They were wonderful. Super attentive and willing to help us with anything we needed. The room was advertised and had all the necessary amenities and more. I highly recommend it. For the price you can't beat itTimothy 2017-07-16T00:00:00Z
Sandhya's place was exactly as described and the location is very good. Sandhya was very responsive & helpful. She made sure we were comfortable.Bhavit2017-08-28T00:00:00Z
Sandy's home was lovely! She takes good care of her guests and makes sure they are comfortable. I would wholeheartedly recommend her home to family and friends.Claire2017-07-10T00:00:00Z
Sandhya and Srikant were great hosts.Their home is located in a pretty (URL HIDDEN) stay was very comfortable. Thank youkrishnan2017-02-10T00:00:00Z
Quiet, pleasant home; excellent hostess, nice family; very fine vegetarian breakfast offerings. Sandy went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable. The house is in a very nice residential neighborhood, but farther than I thought from public transportation, so I would definitely recommend a car. Washington Metro is not what it used to be. This is very far from the city, the way the Metro is working nowadays. However, with a car, you will enjoy a pleasant stay at Sandy's home. I would recommend it as an economical and nice way to stay in the Montgomery County suburbs.Ward2017-06-26T00:00:00Z

This my second stay at Kelly's place. Again I had a great experience. Kelly is an excellent host. I really appreciate her flexibility and sensitivity to my needs. The space is large and comfortable and very good value for the price. Having a coffee maker, refrigerator and microwave was a definite plus. Very good wifi service . Enjoyed many extra including snacks. Location very convenient. I will definitely stay here for future visits.therese2017-03-02T00:00:00Z
Perfect place in the area. It is close to grocery stores and restaurants. 10 minute drive to most major places in the area. Parking is easy on the street. The room is super comfortable and I felt right at home. Would definitely stay again.Jaison2017-06-27T00:00:00Z

I would recommend JR and May for others to stay at. Room was very clean and Jr and May were very nice.Ryan2017-07-01T00:00:00Z
My stay was absolutely wonderful! JR and May are incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the room is incredibly clean and comfortable. The kitchen reserved for guest use was such an excellent perk as I was able to cook at all hours of the day without worrying about being in the way; same goes for the bathroom. I brought a car and found parking and commuting from this neighborhood extremely convenient. Every consideration has been made regarding living essentials, and the hosts frequently checked in to make sure that I was enjoying my stay. I recommend staying with JR and May with all my heart!Lillian2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

Sandra foi um anfitrião muito agradável, embora eu estava em sua casa, ela fez sentir muito particular. O quarto foi grande ea cama era muito confortável e novo! Eu estava apenas na cidade para uma noite para o trabalho e eu não queria ficar em um hotel. Os parques nas proximidades foram grande para ir queimar algumas calorias. Eu tenho que voltar para a área para o trabalho no futuro e eu vou ficar aqui novamente se ele estiver disponível.Angie2015-09-09T00:00:00Z
Sandra made me feel very welcome, she was very helpful with move-in, finding my way around town, and a lot more. The room is definitely spacious--lots of closet space and plenty of room to put things for my extended stay--and the neighborhood is quiet. I was overall very satisfied with my stay.Emily2016-08-21T00:00:00Z
I had a great stay at Sandra's place. The room was very clean, spacious and comfortable, as was the adjacent private bathroom. The accommodations were just great. The neighborhood was nice and a short drive to the Shady Grove metro station, super markets and some restaurants. I was warmly welcomed by Sandra when I arrived, but our respective schedules meant that we really didn't see one another after that. But everything went smoothly with check in and check out. I enjoyed the quiet during the evenings while staying there.David2015-11-06T00:00:00Z
I enjoyed staying at Sandra's place again! She always makes me feel at home, she even offered to take me to the grocery store when I couldn't find it! Sandra's home is comfortable, clean and she is a awesome host!Julianna2016-10-23T00:00:00Z

Joy's basement apartment was clean and very comfortable, I felt right at home when I got there. The bed was very comfortable and it was very easy to sleep, despite being away from home. There is a mini-refrigerator with a small freezer, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker (she will provide you with coffee too). Actually, she provides you with most basic things that you need like plasticware, plates, bowls, linens, and more. Joy was a great host and provided everything that I needed and was accessible. I would definitely stay with her again when I am in the area.Jessica2017-09-02T00:00:00Z

Beautiful house, full of great art, in a quiet neighborhood and walking distance to restaurants and shops.Rosa2017-07-05T00:00:00Z
House was clean and Elli was eager to help. Short walk to a couple breakfast options.Esther2017-05-27T00:00:00Z
Wonderful experience. Elli and Ray welcomed us upon arrival and showed us around the house. They even left us bottled water and muffins (which my three year devoured!). They were very welcoming. The townhouse itself was perfect. Very clean and spacious with a well-stocked kitchen. Perfect for a family. Location was ideal. DC was a short train ride away. Many restaurants and shops were in walking distance. Would highly recommend Elli's place. This is our new go-to lodging when we travel to DC.Maureen2016-05-16T00:00:00Z
Very nice apartment beautiful art work by ownerJames2016-06-09T00:00:00Z
I stayed at Elli's place only for one night while work was being done on my residence. It was my first time using airbnb and figured it worth trying it out to stay in the Kentlands instead of staying in a hotel for one night. Elli's place is kept very nicely and it was a very comfortable stay. Compared to staying in a cramped hotel, you have the whole three level townhouse to yourself. Being in the middle of Kentlands was a huge plus as well for the walking distance to various shops and restaurants. She even has a Roku TV so I could watch my favorite streaming shows in the evening. I will definitely consider staying here again. Thanks Elli!Marc2016-06-10T00:00:00Z
Our family had a very nice stay! Elli's home is nicely furnished like a model home, yet provides a spaciousness that made us feel extra relaxed. Elli's art work adorns the walls. Although we brought a lot of stuff with us on the car trip, we really liked the small touches available -- the bottles of water, the cream cheese spreads, toothpaste, noodles, full range of kitchen items, dryer sheets, etc. Whole Foods and Starbucks within 8 minute walk. Bus stop is close by, and easy access to main roads. Elli was always prompt to reply to messages, and provided a friendly welcome and introduction on our first night.Wayne2016-01-03T00:00:00Z
Elli and her husband are both extremely communicative and helpful. The home is well-located, right next to a nice downtown area with all the shops, restaurants, and stores that you need. Will definitely stay here again!Li2017-05-22T00:00:00Z

5. Mathematics and Education
The sketch from the previous posts reveals that through the lens of faith mathematics is seen as far more than just manipulating symbols. Rather, it is an image-bearer stepping into her role of being a co-creator with God. Thus, teaching mathematics becomes about more than just helping students learn how to perform algorithms or manipulate symbols. I've come to think of blackboards as windows into eternity, hoping my lectures will awaken students to the sense of endless discovery and co-creation they were created for. Teaching mathematics is about helping students recognize their true identities, incredible worth, and privileged place they occupy within the universe. Mathematics testifies to the reality that we're not here haphazardly, but were designed to discover and extend creation while appreciating its beauty. And mathematics teaches us to long for the eternity where we'll be able to continue our education in the presence of the One who formed us in love. "In the highest sense the work of education and the work of redemption are one."
While living in anticipation of eternity, mathematics also teaches valuable lessons of character. Over the last few years, I've been intentional to introduce my student to Carol Dweck's research on growth mindset. Dweck uses this term to refer to the different ways students view their intelligence and hence respond to failure. On the one hand, students who believe intelligence is fixed--you're either born as a "math person" or not--tend to interpret their poor performance on a math activity as evidence that they are not capable of mastering the material. On the other hand, students who are taught to understand that intelligence is something that one can develop--like a muscle--tend to interpret poor performance as indicators of what further steps they need to take in order to master the material. Intentionally helping students develop a growth mindset develop traits of character that transfer to every sphere of their lives and, through the lens of faith, are understood as having an eternal value.
Finally, in anticipating the restoration of God's good creation, one is reminded that there is something seriously broken in this present world. Mathematics, like art, can give individuals glimpses of the world to come, but it seems that it must go a step further and actually address the suffering of this present world. Enter the great applicability of mathematics. I've been developing a growing burden to inspire and challenge my students to employ their training to address the great want of world in whatever life course they pursue, be it as educators, engineers, medical professionals, lawyers, or even mathematicians.

Tucson Massacre: Sarah Palin Takes To YouTube To Criticize Critics' 'Blood Libel'
Sarah Palin shoots at critics.
CBS / YouTube
Clearly responding to jabs that her presidential aspirations were the least-important victim of the weekend's massacre in Tucson, Sarah Palin took to YouTube Wednesday to criticize the critics.
She said attempts to link her kind of violence-laced political rhetoric to Saturday's shooting of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and 19 others, six of whom died, was "a pretext to stifle debate."
The money quote:
"Especially within hours of a tragedy unfolding, journalists and pundits [that's us!] should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence they purport to condemn. That is reprehensible."
Let's just pause and analyze this for a minute: 1) Blood had already been shed. 2) There was nothing libelous, as far as we can tell, written. What journalists asked was if Palin's volatile rhetoric had anything to do with the suspect's actions outside a Tucson Safeway Saturday.

In targeting Giffords and other Congressional Democrats up for reelection by using a graphic of a rifle's cross-hairs over their districts, Palin stated this on her Facebook page:
"Don't retreat! Instead - RELOAD!"
So naturally, people wondered if perhaps the suspect could have taken this mantra literally, particularly if he was mentally ill.
Here's what local Sheriff Clarence Dupnik -- a man who saw the blood first hand -- had to say that tragic day:
"The hatred and bigotry in this country have gotten out of control."
He wondered if heated political rhetoric could have set off an "unstable" suspect.
Here's the thing. Journalists didn't say this. They recorded his words. It's not libel. It's an expert's opinion.
Within hours if not days of the massacre some wondered if Palin's political career, particularly her widely held aspirations to become president, were a FAIL.
After the tragedy U.S. Rep. Diane Watson of L.A. said (via ReelUrbanNews), "She has just signed her absolute denial of any public office again."
Like any good political strategist would advise her to do, Palin got in front of the camera Wednesday, with the American flag at her side, and attempted to appear above it all -- presidential, even.
But while she condemned attempts to tie her fighting words to the violence in Tucson (" ... Each individual is accountable for his actions," she said -- apparently not referring to herself), she made strange allusions to violence and gunplay, as usual.
Palin marveled at the "peaceful transition of power" in the last two national elections, which she said "proved yet again the enduring strength of our republic."
Because the losers always attempt to take over the government here, banana republic-style.
She notes that many pundits have observed an increase in the heat of our political discourse in this Palin era.
"When was it less heated?," she said. "Back in those calm days when political figures literally settled their differences with dueling pistols?"
We're sure Palin the hunter misses those days.
"When we take up our arms," she said, "we're talking about our vote."
Eh, no Sarah. Only you equate the quintessential action of Democracy with pulling the trigger and taking a life. It's not what normal people think of when they vote.
It was a nice try. But, in our view, Palin is increasingly headed toward nut-job status in American politics. She'll soon join Ross Perot in that recycling bin.

Say hi to Ron. Following 12 years of junior corps, Ron joined the Kilties. and has been with us for the last 20. This means Ron has spent 30 of his 38 years on this planet in drum corps. It's in his blood, as they say.
Ron lists among his favorite memories the Kilties making finals in 1998, being the last corps to play in the 2000's by doing an exhibition at the 1999 DCA finals and playing with Keith Urban with the rest of the Kilties battery in 2007.
Ron lists his most meaningful memory as being the 2005 DCA performance when member and very good friend, Joel "Lothar" Magnuson collapsed and passed away on field. Ron says, "Since then, for Lothar and every fallen Kiltie, Auld Lang Syne has a lot
more meaning to the words within it."
What is Ron looking forward to in 2017? "Entertaining the crowd, giving them a lot of music for their buck, taking names, and getting the long-overdue respect Kilties deserve."
Join the Kilties for 2017 and become your own Portrait in Plaid. Find out more and complete an interest form at www.kilties.com.

There are a variety of approaches to project management. Critical chain management (CCPM) puts more emphasis on the resources required to execute tasks, while event chain methodology focuses on managing events that will affect scheduling. Regardless of the method you choose, the Small Business Administration advises listing out specific project objectives, create a working timeline of both materials and personnel, and monitor all required costs as the project proceeds. Project control means keeping on-track, on-time, and under budget.
A project manager, therefore, is responsible for determining project requirements, and managing all elements of the task. Project management software is available that will help to organize both yourself and your team. Depending on the sophistication of the software, it may include estimating and cost control, decision-making trees, and a workflow analysis. Over the course of any project, the requirements may change mid-stream, without prior notice. Changes can be the result of necessary design modifications, altered site conditions, material availability or lack thereof. Finally, a formal, compliance-based audit may be conducted by upper management after completion. Beyond major requirements within the BBA degree program department, you may consider New Mexico Junior College SAT exam dates as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

The term hang drum was started as the sound sculpture or misnomer for a musical instrument called the hang and currently this hang drum is also called as the handpan. The hang drum sound sculpture has a peculiar UFO shape which result on the gluing two half shells of deep drawn and the nitrated steel is placed together at the rim. Inside the instrument there is a hollow and in the outside it has the tone and note fields hammered into it and in the top shell it has a center note which is surrounded by the 7-9 tone fields whereas the bottom shell has a tuned port centered on the bottom. The tone and notes field are usually played with the finger strikes that can be of dynamic but without having the aggressive force.
The hang is not a drum in which the typically drum is defined as that it will be in the shape of goblet or cylindrical covered at one end with a tightly stretched skin in which it is struck with the sticks or hand to produce the booming, tapping or popping sound. Where the term drum involves in the deep handed playing methods particularly for the people who have exposed to the solid rocking drum sets and they use this technique for de-tuning and running the instrument. Unlike the ordinary drum the hang drum does not fit perfectly into the classification of Hornbostel sachs and the hang drum is the instrument of melodic percussion where its primary sound is produced by vibrating the fields of tone which is described as the acoustic membranes. When considering the acoustic fundamental properties the tone field falls somewhere between the idiophone and membranephone. Read more

Good morning. Nice work u guys r doing. My story goes like this. I have bin dating my boyfriend for some time now we have a wonderful relationship. We tavelled for a wedding. During d reception he left his phones with me to go usher in d couple because he was among d grooms men. I picked d phone to go through some of d pics we took together after dat decided to slide into his bbm. I was checked to see a girl's pic he sent to his friend. Let me use his exact words… this is where my heart is and the friend was like pls stop dat talk I prefer ur gf he den said der is no drive between us. I was shocked.. I searched for the girl in question on ig and found out it was a girl he knew before he meet me and all but he told me that it didn't work out between dem. I decided not to confront him. Wen we got back to d room we lodged, I sat him down and asked him politely if der is something he wants to talk to me abt or der is an issue bothering him, he said no. Wen we got back to base, I couldn't hold it anymore cos I was broken I had to ask him who is d girl.

The Hadid and Jagger siblings hit the runway together for Tommy Hilfiger
Preceding the Georgia May-Lizzy Jagger duo, Gigi Hadid was up on the runway with her sister Bella and brother Anwar at the Tommy Hilfiger show. We take a look back at these beautiful siblings blessed with model-looks.
Since his appointment as creative director of Gucci in January 2015, Alessandro Michele has catapulted the label into a new era. His signature audacious and colorful style mixes androgyny and contemporary romance to create a never-before-seen version of the Gucci woman. With the Fall/Winter 2018 collection showing today in Milan, we take a look back at the rich and varied inspirations for the designer's eight women's collections.
From her healthy silhouette, to her incredible hair, and her child-like pout, Kaia Gerber launched her career on the New York Fashion Week runway. Before that, she posed for magazines around the globe and lended her face to several big campaigns. At just 16 years old, barely legal for the runway, the prodigal child can finally show off her catwalk potential. Identical to her mother, Cindy Crawford, in her heyday, she has become the muse of runway designers. Take a look at some of her best shows during Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2018.
Exclusively unveiled at London Fashion Week, the new Björk music video 'The Gate' has captivated many thanks to its dreamlike realm, but above all by the dress worn by the singer which took 550 hours to make and required 20 meters of pleated lurex organza. It's an innovative signature piece by Alessandro Michele for Gucci; take a look at its awe-inspiring design process.

Back of the Book:
Nicholas Sayre will do anything to get across the Wall.
Thoughts of Lirael and Sam haunt his dreams, and he has come to realize that his destiny lies with them, in the Old Kingdom. But here in Ancelstierre, Nick faces an obstacle that is not entirely human, with a strange power that seems to come from Nicholas himself.
With "Nicholas Sayre and the Creature in the Case," Garth Nix continues to explore the magical world of the Abhorsen Trilogy. In additional short stories that range from two widely different takes on the Merlin myth to a gritty urban version of Hansel and Gretel and a heartbreaking story of children and war, Garth Nix displays the range and versatility that has made him one of today's leading writers of fantasy for readers of all ages.
Annemarie's Review on Goodreads.com:
I was pleasantly surprised by how many of the stories here I did like. I picked up Across the Wall because I was missing the Old Kingdom, and while only the first story in the collection relates to that, I found it satisfying. Nicholas Sayre and the Creature in the Case is more of a novella, at 90 pages long, and supplies enough action and suspense to be a page turner. It also begins to answer questions of what some characters did following the end of Nix's last novel of the Old Kingdom, Abhorsen. (read the entire review here)
Pages: 432
Published: 2005-07-01
Format Read: ebook
[xrr rating=5.0/5]
The very worst thing about this book is that Garth Nix dares to tell us that he doesn't want to hear if our favorite story is "The Coin Shower." What was he thinking?!
The very best thing about this book is the variety of stories. They aren't all Old Kingdom tales, and the one that is wasn't my favorite – I'm not big on mysteries. My favorites were probably "The Hill" and "Heart's Desire." "Lightning Bringer" was interesting, if not a little disturbing and kind of out of place, I think. They're all great, though! Even "The Coin Shower" in it's eight-word glory. :-D
This book will be placed under the 2011 E-Book Reading Challenge, the 2011 Fantasy Reading Challenge, the Aussie YA Reading Challenge 2011, and the iChallenges 2011.

Maybe a certain number of posts before being able to create threads.... sorry i dont really have any other better ideas, but i just get sick of seeing stupid threads like "post you bra size" from a guy who doesnt justify a good reason.

Sure RoboSapien is cute and can dance; Honda's Asimo can climb stairs and perform complex human-like actions, and some whatever-model industrial robot can build and weld together a supercar. The question is – can they sing along and perform with a self-playing piano while in the middle of Japan's CEATEC convention? I think not but, she can. Everybody please give a round of applause to Miim and her self-playing piano Disklavier. Both technological wonders turned the CEATEC affair into a mini-concert that would make any robot geek weep.
Miim is a humanoid robot with an integrated complex voice synthesis system, she can sing, so to speak. This singing automaton wonder is made by Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science & Technology with the aim to imitate a young adult female. Her voice is made possible through Yamaha's Vocaloid technology which produces sound based from real voices. Miim is not limited in just making vocal sounds; she can sync her lips with the lyrics for a more human touch. She is also capable of subtle human actions like blinking and head movements. Miim is equipped with around 30 integrated joints to help her move her hand, legs and body for a very expressive and impressive recital.
Miim's piano Disklavier is a state of the musical instrument that can record real piano movements and reproduce it anytime. This results in a more natural piano music as compared to synthesized digital sound.

2016 Season Preview — NFC
The NFL Season kicks off on Thursday. Today and tomorrow I'll make my regular season predictions. Today I'm covering the NFC. Tomorrow, the AFC.
NFC West:
1. Arizona Cardinals 12-4 — The Cardinals were a great team last year and, arguably, got better over the off-season. They should win the crown here.
2. Seattle Seahawks 11-5 — For a few years it was the Seahawks and 49ers vying for the division crown. Now it's the Seahawks and Cardinals. They should be neck-and-neck all season.
3. Los Angles Rams 8-8 — Jeff Fisher claimed on Hard Knocks the team would be 11-5 this season. I don't see it. I think they finish right around .500.
4. San Francisco 49ers 4-12 — Chip Kelly might turn this team around, but it won't be this season. The 49ers are in a brutal division and lack talent, especially on offense.
NFC North:
1. Green Bay Packers 12-4 — I think the Packers return to form this season.
2. Minnesota Vikings 10-6 — This is a solid team that wants to compete for a Super Bowl. I think they have the talent to return to the playoffs, but I think they'll lag behind the Packers.
3. Detroit Lions 7-9 — The Lions are just OK on both sides of the ball.
4. Chicago Bears 5-11 — I think this re-building project has some more work to do.
NFC South:
1. Carolina Panthers 10-6 — I don't think the Panthers are the dominant 15-1 team of a year ago, but they should still win the division and contend.
2. Atlanta Falcons 7-9 — The Falcons still have work to do.
3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 7-9 — I think the Buccaneers are coming on as a team and could be in the playoffs next year.
4. New Orleans Saints 5-11 — I just don't think the Saints are better enough.
NFC East:
1. Dallas Cowboys 9-7 — There are a lot of reasons not to believe in the Cowboys, including the injury to Tony Romo. But I think Dak Prescott will be OK, and Ezekiel Elliot will improve the team. The defense will struggle a bit, but I think they can be just good enough to sneak into the playoffs.
2. New York Giants 9-7 — I think the Giants will be neck-and-neck with the Cowboys all season, but finish just out of the playoffs again.
3. Washington Redskins 7-9 — I like Kirk Cousins, and I think the Redskins are a decent team, but I think they come up a little short in 2016.
4. Philadelphia Eagles 3-13 — This is a rebuilding year for the Eagles. I think they'll be competitive in games but won't be successful in terms of record.
NFC Playoffs:
1. Arizona Cardinals
2. Green Bay Packers
3. Carolina Panthers
4. Dallas Cowboys
5. Seattle Seahawks
6. Minnesota Vikings
Wild Card Round: Seahawks over Cowboys; Panthers over Vikings
Divisional Round: Cardinals over Seahawks; Packers over Panthers
NFC Championship: Packers over Cardinals
