Someone take me to whoever is responsible for that piece of c*** movie,
"The Pirates of the Caribbean", I want an explanation about how this
thing got financing.
God what a BORING movie. I downloaded it, watched it and had to fight my
eyelids from closing.
Last night we went to the drive-in….POTC was the 2nd movie of the
double-header. I thought, ok, maybe it was the s*** quality of the
pirated pirate movie that tainted my opinion of it….now I'll see it on
a HUGE screen and since I paid for it my conscience will be clean…so
maybe there's a chance it wasn't so bad the first time around. Well, it
still sucked.
Was this supposed to be an action movie? If it was, it surely wasn't
exciting (or even suspenseful). Most of the action was in the dark so you
couldn't really see what was going on, just alot of cannon fire and s***
blowing up. I'm sure it wasn't meant to be any sort of a comedy though
there were a few (probably exactly 3) laughs in it.
The acting wasn't terrible, though Johnny Depp looked like he was more
interested in cornholing his former boatmate's son than the governor's
daughter. The special effects, nothing to write home about either.
Just a snooze. I didn't feel bad when we left with about 30 minutes left.
Not because I'd already seen the ending, but who with any sort of brain
didn't know exactly what was gonna happen?
I'm as big a fan of mindless c*** as anyone, but this mindless c***
wasn't even interesting.
Maybe it'll be better on DVD, at least there will be surround sound
unlike the drive-in (which I admit is not the preferred mode of seeing
the quality of a movie).
Oh, and while I'm on it, a word about the drive-in. Nice nostalgic
experience but there are nearly as many morons there as there are in a
theater. We had fidgety idiots accidentally pulling back on the turn-
signal lever activating the flash to pass function (which I wouldn't
really expect to work with the car not running) and also same fidgety
persons accidentally hitting the panic button on their key chain setting
their car alarm off (which interestingly enough took them quite a while
to figure out how to turn off)

Hehe, jeez, I hope the kids weren't watching. Both movies (first was Spy
Kids 3D) were sort of aimed at kids and there were plenty of them running

Shinner 2012-05-08 04:32:46
Well, mine's only one opinion (and it looks like I'm in the minority). I
looked up the flick on IMDB and it seems everyone really seems to like
it. The reviews basically say take it for what it's worth (most mention
what a great job Depp did, and I'd agree on that much).
The one thing I found completely dumb was the 2 head pirates fighting
each other (presumably to the death) when in fact neither of them could
die due to the curse. Doh…
And it was wayyyyyy long, almost 2.5 hours I think.
I think Lisa and a few others might have discussed this one right after
it came out, and if I remember right, they all liked it as well.

The thing that makes me laugh is the tie-in to the McDonald's advertising.
Usually it's something relatively obvious, they put some kinda space toys in
the Happy Meals or something to that effect. The whole idea behind
cross-promotion was that two marketing campaigns were to be inter-related in
order to produce better marketing impact.
I have no idea what Big Mac's have to do with Pirates and it's obvious that
neither does McDonald's.
Daedsimaddas 2012-05-18 20:26:25
Back in the pre-refridgeration days of pirating, pirates would go for weeks
on end without ever seeing land, sometimes even months. The Irish members
on board began a saying about having a Big-MAC attack. Anyhoo, the word
"MAC" comes from a spanish derivation of Carne or meat, whereas MAC is an
accronym for Meat Almost Carne. So the Big Mac is kind of a play on words.
Anyway, once someone yelled "LAND HO" that means they spotted land, but
might be hours from actually landing, so they celebrated tremendously
drinking up everything in site with the knowledge that they could fully
restock everything on board and most importantly they would be able to sink
their teeth in some meat and relieve there "Big Mac Attacks". Well all this
partying and drinking can only result in one thing…yup, you guessed it,
the golden arches as the ship mates relieved themselves. It was an Irish
Pirate named Captain Donald who saw the potential in this and adopted the
name "MacDonald" then introduced the Big Mac sandwich available only under
the golden arches. So you see there really is a connection to pirating and
the Big Mac.

Sunbus in real time
As a CBD dweller who has for a period explored the lifestyle of being vehicle free I can only say that this does address one of the bigger problems of public transport in a regional city like Cairns. Public transport also has a status problem. Catching a bus wont get you elevated in social status as I found out!
2 comments:
I suppose even if the bus is late you'd feel better knowing it's actually coming. It must be difficult adopting a vehicle free lifestyle in Cairns, as I expect frequency of service is low. And unless buses come along at least every 15 minutes, most people aren't going to even consider a bus.ReplyDelete
Yes, that is the problem. I think most bus sevices in Cairns are on a one hour schedule or half hour at peaks times. My worst experience was waiting for a Sunday bus to Palm Cove for lunch and not knowing whether the bus was late or I had missed it. There was no bus and I missed lunch. Mostly my bus experiences visiting friends in Freshwater and Redlynch was quite good.ReplyDelete
However being vehicle free in the City is not so drastic and we have a few residents in our block with a vehicle free lifestyle. Easy walking and a short taxi ride home with any serious shopping. Outside peak times car hire can also be quite cheap and I could get a Getz from Budget just a few blocks away as low as $39 a day. Cheaper to hire a car for the day to visit the suburbs than catch a taxi!

If round shaped face people want to make their face look smaller, you who have oval shaped face must want to lessen the length of your face. The length of your face is a little longer than the normal look. And it add some length to your face. With Long Hairstyle for Oval Faces, your oval faces will look better and shorter than the actual length.
There are more Long Haircuts for people with oval faces rather than people with round shaped face. However, there some same point about these two face shape. People with oval face also good with layered style. You can emphasize the layered style in some places of the faces by start to cut the layers in the part you want to emphasize.
Long Hairstyles for Oval Faces are easy and simple, right? Your oval faces just need the right hairstyle to reduce the length of your faces. Do not ever get wrong in choosing the hairstyle as your appearance can start from that hair. If your hair is not right then you may not choose particular clothes. Because the hairstyle will only make your appearance worst. Choose the appropriate hairstyle that supports your face shape.

In his teaching, research, and writings, he has a particular interest in the issues of division and reconciliation which are reflected especially in the councils of the Church as well as in ecumenical dialogues. His recent book, The Ecumenical Movement: An Introductory History, addresses many of these issues. His book The Orthodox Church is the first scholarly study of the development of Orthodox Christianity in the United States. Having also lectured in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Fr. Thomas brings to his teaching the experience of participation in theological conferences in over thirty countries. He has also co-led study-tours to Greece, Turkey and the Middle East.

Windsor Bridge Replacement, Australia
Australia's New South Wales (NSW) Government proposed to replace the Windsor bridge on Hawkesbury river near Sydney. The bridge connects western Sydney with the Hunter Valley or Blue Mountains.
The current vehicular traffic on the bridge is approximately 19,000 vehicles a day, which is expected to increase to 26,000 vehicles a day by 2026.
The new bridge will provide reliable and direct access for vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists across the Hawkesbury River. It is being managed by the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) of NSW.
Construction on the replacement bridge is expected to begin in early-2018 and will be completed by early-2020.
Windsor bridge replacement project background
Built in 1874, the two-lane Windsor bridge was initially used for foot traffic and horse-drawn vehicles. The 140-year old structure has deteriorated and no longer meets the current road standards.
The bridge's northern approach is situated within the one in two-year flood level for the Windsor area. Moreover, the deck of the bridge is 6.1m-wide, obstructing the movement of heavy vehicles.
RMS investigated multiple options including repairing and replacing the bridge in December 2003, in order to ensure safety of the passengers on the bridge.
The NSW government allotted $25m for a replacement bridge in June 2008 and granted planning approval in December 2013.
RMS conducted archaeological testing, along with environmental and heritage studies for finalising the design in 2016.
Design and features of Windsor bridge replacement
The replacement bridge will be constructed over the Hawkesbury River, 35m downstream of the existing bridge.
The new bridge will have three lanes, including two south-bound and one north-bound lane. It will have a 15.5m width and include wide shoulders for vehicle breakdowns, and a shared pedestrian and cyclist path on the western side.
The bridge will be supported by piers in the river and linked to the existing road network through new approach roads and intersections.
Windsor bridge replacement construction
The project includes the construction of a new U-turn and renovation of the entrance road to Macquarie Park. Construction of a new dual-lane roundabout at the Wilberforce Street and Freemans Reach Road intersection and a new signalised intersection at Wilberforce Road are also part of the project.
The new bridge will be equipped with traffic lights at the Bridge Street and George Street intersection.
Modifications to the local roads including changes to the Macquarie Park access road and reconnection of The Terrace will be completed as part of the project.
The existing bridge will be dismantled after the completion of the replacement bridge. Thompson Square will also be reorganised and landscaped as part of the project.
The contractor for the construction of the bridge will be finalised by the end of 2017.
Benefits of the bridge replacement
The bridge replacement project will ensure safe movement of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists, while minimising traffic congestion and improving load capacity. It will also meet a road speed of 60km/h and can carry two-way heavy vehicle traffic flow.
The bridge will minimise impact on heritage and conservation areas and will help in managing higher levels of flooding. Further, it will provide links to Thompson Square heritage precinct and surrounding areas.

Why myKidsy? Because we make learning fun and engaging for children! Our innovative programmes are fun, quirky and memorable and we have plans, big plans, if you will help us! myKidsy provides innovative after school, weekend and holiday activities for kids. How do you tap into your child's inner talents? Ever wondered what your kids might achieve if they engaged in original, thought-provoking, extra-curricular activities? Our goal is to help educators and parents, so they can engage in quality activities with children. It is evident that children are hungry to learn about coding and other subjects. Children are keen to to learn. Yet there is not much out there to enable them to do so. It is time for us to really to step in and offer these thought-provoking courses to help our kids learn. The real agenda behind this project is to bridge the gap between the children and innovative learning. I want to give children a real understanding and knowledge of coding and technology.

What makes people buy from point-of-purchase displays?
Posted on Friday, May 26th, 2017
Point-of-Purchase (POP) displays are one of the most underutilized marketing tools in retail today but also one of the best ways to get your brand noticed in store.
While physical stores continue to drive consumer sales for brands, POP displays can help boost the sales of a product significantly. They're often placed at the point of sale for customers during their buying cycle. The displays are used to influence the motivations of the buyer. They showcase the product from a brand, often with some eye-catching graphics, text, or images, designed to draw the eyes of the buyer and entice them to buy.
Brands in stores are looking to separate themselves by any means they can. Competition at the shelf continues to be fierce, so brands need an edge to promote their products against their competitors. POP displays give many brands that edge to win at the shelf. Great packaging lures shoppers in and helps them become not only customers, but repeat customers. That's the goal for all brands and companies.
Consumers are inundated with thousands of messages on a consistent basis. How do they separate all that noise when the time comes to make their purchase? There are "moment of truth" moments in stores for shoppers as they decide whether to make a purchase. The goal of the Point-of Purchase is to move the process along.
Per a 2014 Mass Merchant Study, 82% of purchase decisions are made in the store. That is a significant number of shoppers saying yes or no to your brand's products. Making an impression quickly is vital.
There are over 30,000 SKUS introduced each year. It stands to reason with all that eye candy, your display better make a great impression. That's why having a well-designed, innovative point-of-purchase display will help you move the needle and capture the interest of those shoppers looking to buy.

STONEY RIDGE SEASONS: Book Three
In her widest dreams, spunky and impulsive nineteen-year-old Mary Kate Lapp, never imagined herself behind a schoolteacher's desk. A run-in (literally) with the schoolteacher compels her to act as a substitute teacher, just as her restless desire to see the world compels her to apply for a passport...just in case. The only thing of interest to M.K. in the sleep Amish community of Stoney Ridge is the unexplained death of a sheep farmer that coincided with the arrival of a mysterious young man into the community. Frustrated that no one takes the crime seriously she, takes matters into her own hands. Unfortunately, as tends to be the case for M.K., she jumps headlong into trouble.
EXCERPT: part of Chapter One
The year Mary Kate Lapp turns 19 started otu fine enough. Life seemed full of endless possibilities. But as the year went on, a terrible restlessness began to grow inside of her, like sour yeast in a jar of warm waater on a sunny window sill. There were days when she thought she couldn't stand another moment in this provincial little town, and days when she though she could never leave.
On a sun drenced afternoon, M.K. was zooming along on her red scooter, past as English farmer's sheep pasture, with a book propped above the handle bars -- a habit that her stepmother, Fern, scolded her about relentlessly. She was just about to live happily ever after with the story's handsome hero when a loud Bwhoom! suddenly interrupted her reading....
The author wrote in very descriptive detail, such as the sour yeast in warm water on a windowsill and the description of Danny Riehl, with a round face, glass held together with tape and hair the color of straw.
M.K. was hilarious at times. It would make you laugh. Mary Kate, in the beginning had a bad outlook on life. She didn't appreciate anything she had.
You want to feel bad for Grace Mitchell who was an addict. She was headed down the path of self destruction. Addiction just spirals.
This book was well written with many emotions entwined such as love, sadness, laughter, forgiveness and many more.
It was a realistic read and a light read. You might want to read it all the way through. There's something aobut Amish reads that, leaves you at peace when you're done.
I received this complimentary book from Night Owl Reviews for this unbiased review.
I give this book 4.5 stars.

6 That night 1the king could not sleep. So one was commanded to bring athe book of the records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. 2 And it was found written that Mordecai had told of 2Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs, the doorkeepers who had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus. 3 Then the king said, "What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?"
And the king's servants who attended him said, "Nothing has been done for him."
4 So the king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just entered bthe outer court of the king's palace cto suggest that the king hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
5 The king's servants said to him, "Haman is there, standing in the court."
And the king said, "Let him come in."
6 So Haman came in, and the king asked him, "What shall be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?"
Now Haman thought in his heart, "Whom would the king delight to honor more than dme?" 7 And Haman answered the king, "For the man whom the king delights to honor, 8 let a royal robe be brought which the king has worn, and ea horse on which the king has ridden, which has a royal 3crest placed on its head. 9 Then let this robe and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that he may array the man whom the king delights to honor. Then 4parade him on horseback through the city square, fand proclaim before him: 'Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!' "
10 Then the king said to Haman, "Hurry, take the robe and the horse, as you have suggested, and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits within the king's gate! Leave nothing undone of all that you have spoken."
11 So Haman took the robe and the horse, arrayed Mordecai and led him on horseback through the city square, and proclaimed before him, "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!"
12 Afterward Mordecai went back to the king's gate. But Haman ghurried to his house, mourning hand with his head covered. 13 When Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened to him, his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against ihim but will surely fall before him."
14 While they were still talking with him, the king's eunuchs came, and hastened to bring Haman to jthe banquet which Esther had prepared.
About The New King James Version
The New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study.

How hard it is to see
the highest mountain for the trees
until we hear the ancient knock
of thunder sky and molten rock.
We tear away the mossy veil
that had long concealed the trail
just to find the climb is steepest
where the waterfall is deepest
and it seems we're almost there
when we breathe the rarest air
beyond the earth, into the sun
where we learn we've just begun.

Sometimes a mountain
shakes loose
its deeply rooted trees,
old riverbeds,
the tramping of calloused feet.
It spews out fire and ash,
declares itself free
of expectation.
There is blood-letting
as lava streams down
into the lakes
cooking fish and lilies,
boiling off complacency.
It is the wish
of Gaia.
Be careful
when you try
to move a mountain –
but never stop climbing.

Spirit comes, a gentle giant –
no trumpets or glare,
no explosions of air,
just strong hands that lift us
above the sharp slopes,
just warm arms that cradle us
up to the top
of the mythical mountain
we've climbed for so long.
We throw off our packs
and become light
as horizons beyond us
widen like a smile
on fertile plains.
They spread like butter
on slices of eternity
whispering, whispering:
We are the giant

In her long climb
she stumbles on memories,
sends them clattering
to the ravine.
She slips on illusions
melting and dripping
like tiny prisms
in need of a light.
But on the sixth day
her true match is struck
and she finally sees:
nothing in heaven is moot.

Special Fund At Hospital In a Dispute
By JOSEPH BERGER,
Published: October 8, 1993
WHITE PLAINS, Oct. 7— As countywide elections draw near, a dispute broke out today over a special fund at the Westchester County Medical Center that is supposed to be spent primarily for research and equipment but that was apparently used to pay for catered parties, tickets to charity dinners and retirement gifts.
Trying to reduce the political fallout, Andrew P. O'Rourke, the County Executive who is seeking re-election next month, asked for three county employees who serve as officers of the special fund to resign their fund positions. One employee is Mack L. Carter Jr., whom Mr. O'Rourke appointed Hospitals Commissioner.
A spokeswoman for Mr. O'Rourke, Claire Palermo Flower, said he thought that the fund, as a private nonprofit organization, should have an independent governing body.
The nonprofit, tax-exempt fund is known as the Westchester County Medical Center Supplementary Fund and is administered by five board members, three of whom are county employees. It receives money from private donors and foundation grants. Its bylaws say the money is to be used to help destitute patients with social-service needs, to foster research and educational programs, and to buy medical equipment not paid for out of the regular county budget.
The fund has an administrative account for such things as supplies and telephone expenses, but the Gannett Suburban Newspapers reported today that it was also used for several other purposes. Tickets to Receptions
These included $38,000 for tickets to receptions by various organizations; $3,780 for a computer as a retirement gift for the previous Hospitals Commissioner, Bernard Weinstein; a $185 framed picture for the office of Mr. Carter; $4,000 for honorific plaques, and a $4,000 advertisement in the Gannett papers to criticize county legislators over proposed budget cuts.
Ms. Flower and other county spokesmen said the article was "grossly distorted" and ignored the need of any large organization to honor its employees and keep up its contacts within the community.
"Any not-for-profit organization will buy flowers for one of its employees who had a deceased spouse," Ms. Flower said.
Richard L. Brodsky, Mr. O'Rourke's Democratic challenger, seized on the disclosures, saying that apparent improprieties in the administration of the fund echoed instances in which Mr. O'Rourke has been accused of using the county hospital for jobs for relatives and other people close to him.
"The rest of the country is looking for ways to reform the health care system," Mr. Brodsky said. "Andy O'Rourke is looking for ways to enrich himself, his family and friends."
Stephen P. Tenore, chairman of the county's 17-member legislative body and like Mr. O'Rourke a Republican, said he was outraged by some of the expenditures and called for a review of the fund by state and Federal authorities and the county's district attorney.
"I think one has to recognize that this is a public institution and all the monies raised in its name should have been used for medical and research benefits," he said. A Fund of $1.6 Million
The disclosures did not directly implicate Mr. O'Rourke. The expenditures questioned by Gannett amounted to $70,000 out of a fund of $1.6 million.
Responding to some of the allegations, Ms. Flower said the computer that was presented as a retirement gift was actually bought out of a collection by fellow employees that was deposited into the fund so that a single check could be written for the purchase. Mr. Carter, the medical center's director, said the fund allows the hospital's personnel to "interact with community leaders" to advance "the cause of medical center programs."
Earlier this year Mr. O'Rourke acknowledged that he recommended his live-in companion for a job with the county medical insurer and that his companion's son worked for a company that was hired to audit the medical center. Mr. O'Rourke also acknowledged approaching an official of New York Medical College, which runs the hospital under a county contract, about a physician's job for his son-in-law and admission into the medical school for his daughter.
The son-in-law never took the job, and the daughter changed her career plans.

'Caravaggio and Beyond' is the first exhibition of the painter's work ever seen in Scotland
Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio [aka Caravaggio] is one the most famous painters in the world. A pioneer in the Baroque style he is one of the 'Old Masters'. His ground breaking imagery was admired by Reubens, Rembrandt, Velasquez and a host of other internationally renowned painters. An exhibition of his work [and of those he inspired], never seen before in Scotland, is underway at The National Gallery.
Born in Milan in 1571 Michelangelo Merisi took his artistic name from the Lombardi village, Caravaggio, near Bergamo, where his father was born and to which his family fled when he was a child to escape a plague then engulfing Milan.
His 'chiaroscuro' style features beautiful tones of dark and light set into three-dimensional scenes and figures. It was different to the 'Mannerism' that preceded him in 16th century Italy and was considered a radical departure and he a 'revolutionary naturalist' because he presented much more life like people and places.
Like most painters of his time, he was employed by wealthy patrons. His commissions came largely from the Catholic Church in Rome, Naples, Malta and Sicily. But he insisted on using secular and contemporary locations and occupations in his depictions of religious scenes.
Caravaggio transformed the art world from top to bottom. His use of light and shadow, perspective and larger than life compressed canvasses imbued with lateral narrative references was highly original, innovative and evocative. Estimates vary as to the extent of Caravaggio's 'oeuvre' or output, some say he painted as many as 80 pieces in his lifetime others just 40.
Caravaggio was an outsider with no family tradition or connections to the art world. He began at the bottom, worked prodigiously and tirelessly under a series of tutors including Antiveduto Gramatica, whose work is also found in this exhibition. And he was humble enough to seek out and learn from others. Like many brave outsiders he transformed the stuffy conventions with his dissidence and challenges to authority and their aristocratic/feudal norms.
He was however also a 'larger than life' personality who liked to 'let his hair down' away from work. It was dangerous to be in his company at times like this, however. Arrested 14 times for a variety of drunken misdemeanours he was even indicted for murder and fled Rome to Naples and Malta to escape prosecution. 'Bad boy' Caravaggio is not your typical artist – if indeed there is such a thing. Like Mozart, there were many sides to him. One side was utterly rebellious, incorrigibly argumentative, an inveterate sword carrier, a drunken brawler and public nuisance jealous of the commissions other artists secured. But he was also a profoundly gifted artist, distinguished and intensely dedicated Master painter himself. He died in Porto Ercole, Tuscany after yet another short spell in jail aged just 39.
His work fell into obscurity after his death in 1610. And it remained there for three hundred years. Yet today his paintings sell for tens of millions of pounds and the terms 'Caravaggisti, Caravaggism, Carravagesque' refer to the artistic movement and style his work gave birth to. It was the renowned Italian art critic and intellectual Roberto Longhi who somewhat controversially asserted in 1920 that this rather obscure Italian painter, Caravaggio, belonged in the upper echelons of art appreciation: 'Ribera, Vermeer, La Tour and Rembrandt could never have existed without Caravaggio' insisted Longhi adding 'And the art of Delacroix, Coubert, and Manet would have been utterly different.' The influential American art historian Bernard Berenson concurred suggesting 'With the exception of Michelangelo, no other Italian painter exercised so great an influence.' From that moment on attitudes to Caravaggio's work shifted irrevocably.
This 'Beyond Caravaggio' exhibition
There has never been a display of Caravaggio's work in Scotland before. And three or four paintings may not constitute an extensive 'exhibition' to be sure, yet such is the reputation he enjoys in the art world today that there is intense interest in this small collection. The National Gallery of Scotland has been able to bring these Caravaggio's together through a collaboration with the National Gallery in London where the exhibition has been until now and the Irish equivalent in Dublin.
The Supper at Emmaus [1601] [above] is on loan from The National Gallery in London as is the Boy Bitten by a Lizard [1594/5]. The Taking of Christ [1602] on the other hand is on loan from the National Gallery of Ireland. This latter work was discovered in the Jesuits' residence in Dublin in 1990. It had previously been offered to the Scottish National Gallery in 1921 by the family of William Hamilton Nisbet of Biel, East Lothian. But the Gallery authorities had turned it down! This was a reflection of the poor standing Caravaggio's work was held in the early 20th century.
The fourth painting on display thought to be by him is entitled Boy Peeling Fruit [1592-95].
Of the other wonderful works in the exhibition – the 'beyond' as it were – are those by Orazio Gentileschi and his daughter Artemisia Gentileschi, Jusepe de Ribera, Valentin De Boulogne, Bartolomeo Manfredi, Guido Reni and Hendrick Ter Brugghen. The sublime influence of Michelangelo Merisi is clear in all 30 of them and indeed in the entire art world beyond.

'Beyond Caravaggio' is on at The National Gallery of Scotland at The Mound until September 24th. Tickets are £12.00

Ionic salts dissolved in water often affect the pH of the solution. This results from hydrolysis reactions.
Hydrolysis: the reaction of a substance with water.
Both cations and anions can undergo hydrolysis, but not all ions react in this fashion.
When an ionic salt dissolves in water, both the free cation and the free anion are formed. Thus, we need to examine both ions in order to determine the acid/base character of a salt.
Typically, this is a three step process.
Write the reaction that dissociates the salt into its constituent ions.
Check the cation for hydrolysis.
Check the anion for hydrolysis.
A water-soluble salt dissociates completely into ions:
MpXq(aq) p Mq+(aq) + q Xp(aq)
The stoichiometry of the dissociation is important for quantitative applications but less so for qualitatitive assessments.
The charges on the ions, of course, are critical.
Mq+(aq) + 2 H2O(l) ? MOH(q1)+(aq) + H3O+(aq)
If MOH(1q)+ is a strong base, the hydrolysis reaction does not occur. This is because the strong base completely dissociates. Thus, Group 1 and 2 metal ions (except Be2+) do not undergo significant hydrolysis.
For all other metal ions, the reaction is an equilibrium:
Mq+(aq) + 2 H2O(l) MOH(q1)+(aq) + H3O+(aq)
This reaction generates hydronium ion, so is also called acid hydrolysis.
Not surprisingly, the mass action expression is exactly like a Ka!
Ammonium ions also undergo cation hydrolysis. These are treated as the conjugate acid of the corresponding weak base.
Xp(aq) + H2O(l) ? HX(p1)(aq) + OH(aq)
If HX(p1) is a strong acid, then the hydrolysis reaction cannot occur because the strong acid completely dissociates. Thus, Cl, Br, I, NO3, ClO4, and HSO4 do not undergo significant anion hydrolysis.
For other anions, this is an equilibrium reaction:
Xp(aq) + H2O(l) HX(p1)(aq) + OH(aq)
Since hydroxide ion is generated, this reaction is also called base hydrolysis.
The mass action expression is identical to Kb!
Caution: anions with ionizable hydrogen atoms can undergo acid hydrolysis. To determine which reaction dominates, we need to compare the equilibrium constants: the larger equilibrium constant wins.
Determine whether aqueous solutions of the following salts are acidic, basic, or neutral.
1. Fe(NO3)2
2. NaF
3. ZnF2.

Schedule of Events sounds better than organization – RIGHT!?
For a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) relocation, you have three choices on how to move your household goods: commercial movers hired by the military, a DITY (do-it-yourself) move, or a partial DITY move which is a combination of both. I have never done a full DITY move and don't think I ever would. However, a partial DITY is a very smart choice if you know you won't be going over your weight limit when the commercial movers package and load your HHGs. You must have permission for a DITY and a partial DITY so don't assume you can hire a moving van, pack all of your HHG's and then after you arrive go to the finance office and request reimbursement. It doesn't work that way. I am sure you knew that, but every year I hear of someone that didn't know and they were out a ton of money. The military will pay for your move based on the estimated weight of your household items, not to exceed the weight allowance determined by your pay grade.
This is the website you will want to bookmark. MilitaryHOMEFRONT has an amazing relocation section.
MilitaryHOMEFRONT is the central, trusted, up-to-date source for Service members and their families to find information about all DoD Quality of Life programs and services. Whether you live the military lifestyle or support those who do, you'll find what you need at MilitaryHOMEFRONT.
I am not going to "reinvent the wheel" when it comes to a relocation calendar. I have used the calendar at the "Plan my Move" site of MilitaryHOMEFRONT and it is amazing. You can customize it for you and your family's situation. I have set it up so that all you have to do is click on their logo here and you will be directed to the Plan My Move section in a new browser.
The next installment of Week One's articles will be information on the Naval Base Kitsap housing market. I want to introduce you to our neighborhoods, our style of homes and what the real estate market is like here in West Puget Sound on the beautiful Kitsap Peninsula. Whether you want view, water or a nice townhouse we have just what you are dreaming of.
Until then……Have a Fine Navy Day!

Los Angeles Special Education Attorney
Some children with disabilities are not ready to safely make all of the decisions that adults are allowed to make when they turn 18. The law does not discriminate or infringe on a person's rights simply because they have a disability, nor should it. In California, every person is automatically granted all of the rights of adulthood on their 18th birthday. However, if you feel that your child is not ready to make this transition, you can seek conservatorship. Special education attorney Fred J. Fleming can help you decide if conservatorship is the right choice in your unique situation and help you through the legal process.
Conservatorship Basics
Conservatorship is similar to guardianship, but more limited. It is designed to allow your child to retain as many rights as possible. One very important difference between guardianship and conservatorship is that individuals subject to guardianship are considered legally incompetent while those subject to conservatorship are not.
In a conservatorship, the conservator is the individual who bears responsibility and the conservatee is the individual being taken care of. The conservator is usually a family member. Conservatorship of a person gives the conservator control over and responsibility for basic aspects of life such as medical decisions, food, clothing, and shelter. Conservatorship of a person's estate gives the conservator control over and responsibility for the person's money and property.
Limited Conservatorship
Limited conservatorship is available, in California, for people with developmental disabilities. The court grants the conservator authority over specific areas of the conservatee's life. Limited conservatorship was designed to give the disabled person the help and protection they need while promoting as much independence and self-reliance as possible.
In order to obtain a limited conservatorship you must prove that your child is developmentally disabled by law and unable to handle some of the basic aspects of life on their own. The conservator becomes responsible for securing housing and medical care, as well as training, education, and vocational and social opportunities for the conservatee.
The conservator does not automatically have control over all aspects of the disabled person's rights. A judge must determine if it is appropriate to give the conservator authority over the conservatee in specific areas including:
- Choosing where he will live
- Choosing who he lives with
- Access to confidential records, such as medical records
- Consent to medical treatment
- Making decisions regarding education
- Getting married
- Entering into contracts
- Managing social affairs
- Managing financial affairs
- Sexual contacts and relationships
A Big Decision
Conservatorship is a big decision, not to be taken lightly. It is a lot of work and responsibility for the conservator and it takes away some of your child's rights which, depending on the child, can cause a rift in the relationship and damage the child's sense of well-being and motivation to become independent. Consider whether it is truly necessary, or if there are more appropriate alternatives which can benefit your child.
If your child is nearing the age of majority and you are concerned about what the future will hold and what your rights and responsibilities will be, the Law Office of Fred J. Fleming can help. Please contact us online right away to learn more and schedule your initial consultation.

American golf ace Tiger Woods [2] has said that he has no fixed timetable for his return to playing as he still cannot fully swing a club, following his dethroning as World No.1 by Australian Adam Scott in the recent rankings.
The 14-time Major champion underwent a microdiscectomy operation March 31 to ease a pinched nerve at his back, forcing him to miss the Masters for the first time in his career.
According to Sport24, Woods said that he remains uncertain if he can play in the upcoming US Open, which begins from June 12-15 at Pinehurst, North Carolina and admitted he does not know when he can begin his comeback bid.
Woods indicated for the first time that he was having major doubts about ever making a come back in the days before surgery and revealed that it was a task for him even getting out of the bed before the surgery.
Woods also said he still cannot play catch with his children and bending and twisting remain issues. (ANI [3])

Published: May 8, 1987
(Page 2 of 2)
In ''Making It Up,'' the canvas is shaped like a huge bib, which seems as vulnerable as cracked glass and as impregnable as a shield. The bib seems to be taking off, leaving behind any body to which it might have been attached, becoming almost Rodinesque as it hurls itself through space. ''My Manhattan'' suggests a map of a city, only the space is like a room that seems to be expanding and contracting by the second. This powerful blend of humor and horror, expansiveness and claustrophobia may explain Ms. Murray's apparent attraction to Kafka, whose ''Hunger Artist'' is the title of one of the best paintings in the show. Glenn Goldberg Willard Gallery 29 East 72d Street Through May 29 This is the Willard Gallery's last show, and it is a challenging one. Although Glenn Goldberg's involvement with surface, gesture and whiteness is as intense as before, his new paintings are more ambitious, fashionable and probing. There is an increasing search for a dynamic dialogue between conceptual and expressive, sensual and intellectual elements. When does a line become expressive? When does a gesture become a form? What does it take for something as factual as a number to be experienced as color and shape? These are some of the questions this show asks.
Most of the paintings are dominated by white grounds on which Mr. Goldberg may place marks as small as a dot and organic shapes not unlike those in paintings by Terry Winters. He may include numbers that both suggest Francis Picabia and Jasper Johns and add a touch of literalness to the vague white fields. Here and there images are visible beneath the surface, and they can be as rudimentary as a straight line, or as suggestive as a target or mandala.
Some paintings lend themselves to interpretation. ''Equation'' is divided into two sections, one green, the other white. In the lower right, Mr. Goldberg has painted ''34,'' which he has said refers to the number worn by Len Bias, the basketball player who died last year after taking cocaine. In the middle of the upper green panel is a black cross pinned on three white forms that look like capsules. The blend of religion and popular culture suggests Warhol and Johns. The painting can be read as a meditation on the athlete's death.
The most important aspect of these paintings is the search for a new space. The blend of expressive and conceptual elements helps keep the whiteness indefinite. It is neither opaque, transparent, infinite, finite, evocative nor factual. It is not the whiteness of Franz Kline, Robert Ryman or anyone else, although the directness and elusiveness again bring to mind Johns. Mr. Goldberg is engaged in dialogues with a good deal of contemporary art. The question is whether he has the resources to use them to make a statement full and deep enough to be his own.

What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted: Mother Of Former Rikers Island Inmate Kalief Browder Dies Following Heart Attack
Venida Browder Dies Of Broken Heart Following Son's Suicide After 3 Years At Rikers Island
We are sad to report that Venida Browder, the 63-year-old Bronx mother of Kalief Browder, who committed suicide after spending three years at Rikers Island without being convicted, has died following a heart attack, her lawyer told the Daily News Sunday.
Browder died Friday at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx, said attorney Paul Prestia. Five of her six surviving children were with her at the hospital when she passed.
Her son's story is referenced numerous times in Ava Duvernay's latest film, the Netflix documentary The 13th, and Venida Browder was present for a press conference just weeks ago with Jay Z as he announced plans to produce a six-part documentary on Kalief's life.
Kalief was only 16 when he was jailed in May 2010 after being accused of stealing a backpack from another teen. His family was unable to post his $3,000 bail so Browder spent three hellish years at Rikers where he suffered being beaten by prison guards and spent most of his time (400 days) in solitary confinement before charges against him were dropped.
After his release he suffered depression and attempted suicide several times before taking his own life just 16 months ago, when he hung himself using an air-conditioning cord.
We can't even imagine his mother's pain over losing him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her other children who are now left without their brother AND their mother.

As a young single parent, Mackenzie Elizabeth Taylor has struggled to provide for her teenage daughter. She finally catches a break when she inherits half of an apartment building in Boston from her uncle Al, along with his P.I. business. So what if she doesn't know the first thing about investigation or if their hot-but-crabby downstairs tenant is a police detective who's looking for any excuse to handcuff her? Her daughter, Mac the computer whiz, has her back. And these two girls don't know the meaning of the word quit - not even when their first case takes an unexpected turn.
The man Mackenzie's been hired to follow in a custody case seems to have upset more than just her client when she spies another person tailing him - a mysterious man Mackenzie would bet is up to no good. But when her mark suddenly winds up dead, and her first and only client is accused of his murder, Mackenzie vows to find the truth. Only one problem: she doesn't know where to start...or when to draw the line. Who is the mysterious man she spotted tailing the victim? Is he the killer? Is she in over her head, or will she uncover the secrets someone killed to keep hidden? Mackenzie and Mackenzie are on the case, and the world of private investigation will never be the same.

"Great where is the next one!"
Think of Gilmore Girls becoming private detectives.
The mother and daughter are named Mackenzie. The mother is called Mackenzie and the daughter Mack. Mack is an extremely talented 16 year-old computer wiz. Mackenzie is a quirky, caffeinated, and awesome. Her morning drink is coffee with a side of coffee topped with coffee beans.
The story centers around financial difficulties of the Mackenzies. Mom-Mackenzie has difficulty finding and keeping a job when she discovers that she wants to try her skills are being a private detective. Being Mackenzie nothing is simple. Following the simple rules of a book written by her uncle, Mackenzie becomes a PI.
Add to the story that Mackenzie and her mother inherit an apartment from her uncle. Her mom leaves the captain (Mackenzie calls her dad by his service rank) moves into the upstairs apartment. There is a hot police office (who Mackenzie has promised not sleep with him) and a Jewish woman. There are movies nights with junk food, love interests and other domestic entanglements.
A great fun novel which needs a follow up. How many PI's only have one case? So there has to be a follow up.
"great book"
Great book, loved the story, but the audio was badly dubbed. It was very distracting.
I can't wait to read the other book in the series. I hope it has the same narrator. she was really good.
"not bad at all"
yes, fun book
for the most part but a little to much love life stuff.
you got to work on your Boston accent, everyone else was good.
"Love this book! Can't wait for the next one!"
I love Jennifer L. Hart's humor and characters. This will be a great new series!
"Can't wait for the next one!"
I've read a few of Ms. Hart's books that were good but this series is great fun and has wonderful twists and turns!
"Very Good Start to a Series!!!"
I'm not sure what I was expecting when downloading this story; but what I received was a well plotted novel with characters I care to see again! I wish Book 2 was available on Audible (only paperback or E-Book right now as far as I can tell) because the narrator is does an excellent job of helping me escape into the story. I may just have to go ahead read (gasp!) Book 2 because I'm dying to know what the Mackenzie girls will get themselves into next!
"Great start to the series"
I read some reviews that compared it to Gilmore Girls and it really was in many ways. I loved it. The interaction between mother and daughter was priceless and funny. I can't wait to the second book to come out on audible.
"Fun Start to the Series"
Smart, strong, funny women are my favorite protagonists and that describes both Mackenzie and her daughter Mac. Their exchanges kept me smiling and had me laughing out loud on occasion.
Anytime that Mackenzie (the mother) thinks she's being super stealthy and nailing the whole P.I. thing. Then finds out she's not in some humorous way.
No, it's not really that type of story. But I had a ton of fun listening to Mackenzie's antics.
"Entertaining - easy to follow"
I was looking for fun lighthearted audio books for vacation travel time. This one hit the mart.
loved the character development and quick witted humor.
Hoping 2nd in series is soon to follow

Is it sad that I am looking forward to be gone for 9 hours tomorrow. By MYSELF!! 3 hour drive to a 3 hour training & 3 hour drive home again. Bonus? I get paid hourly for the whole 9 hours + reimbursed for mileage!
9 hour vacation!! Sweet!!!
Now they're comparing Vader and Batman and something about punching someone in the face? Really???
Fork to MOUTH People. FORK TO MOOUTH!!!!!
