I love neon all year round, but I think it's just made for summer - especially in pink. Even more so in pink stripes. And this outfit was all about bright colour - neon pink, bright yellow and sky blue - on a column of black and white.
I've had my eye on these Asos blue mirrored aviators for a while, and I love the happy accident of them matching the blue scarf (a perfect summer cotton scarf, I must say). Accessories... you gotta love 'em, right?
Anyone else into their neons big time for the summer at the moment..?

Showing dedication and perseverance, thirty-six players and coaches made their way to New Orleans for the Foundation's
4th Annual New Orleans Recovery Effort. They braved winter storm warnings, harsh weather, and missed flights,
making it the largest group of volunteers to participate yet. Although rain limited the activities, everyone
gave of their time and energy to make a contribution.
During their downtime, the volunteers enjoyed the hospitality and spirit of New Orleans at the Rock-n-Bowl,
daiquiris bars, visiting the French Quarter for beignets at Café Du Monde and watching parades.
The event coincided with the Halfmoons 'Throw Me Something Rugger Tournament' which had their
largest team turnout since Katina with 14 teams attending. Many of the volunteers got an opportunity to play.

as promised yesterday, i want to share with you some of the new acrylic paintings i have been working on this week:
***first attempt at collage and experimentation with rosy cheeks***
i have been thinking of ways to broaden the ideas that i have for my art dolls. not everyone likes dolls. i am aware of that. and that's fine. i don't always want to make dolls.
so, i decided it would be fun to put my dolls on canvas. just to see how they would transfer from one medium to the next.
and you know what?....
i experimented with a couple of different techniques over the last few days and found, to my surprise, that i like just plain ole painting!
putting a brush to canvas is extremely fulfilling!
putting a brush to canvas is extremely fulfilling!
i bought kelly rae robert's book TAKING FLIGHT earlier this year, and i love the techniques she uses, but the aren't for me.
i think she does a marvelous job with collage, but it really eludes me.
***i tried collage here. layers of paper - which you can't see. doily and spray paint. rubber stamping***
i like layers of paint instead.
so, that's what i'm sticking to, after all the experimentation! ha!
so, i think i'm going to stick with this painting thing.
it's very enjoyable. very relaxing. and i think they tie in with my dolls very well.
***daisy, the illustrated woman is my latest, and i think i've finally found my style...i finished her
late yesterday evening and was very pleased with how she turned out...***
i do hope you ( and others ) will like them as much as i do....
have a happy happy day...i'm off to buy more art supplies!

I was expecting to see the mahra and sep event with the 50% in return just like the whips and SC.. well.. you can't always get what you want.
Btw now every new mount is going to be unable to recycle?
It is much more easier to get mahra or sepulcrum, why they should increase the turn back rewards? There is no problem to get 6k mahra/ sepulcrum every month. Only adv. sepulcrum is a little bit harder. I dont want stacks of 9999 sepulcrum which i cant use.
Good news: massive chests; bad news: nothing good in the exchanges. ie nothing most players need. Of course Adv henna exchange is last cycle when you can't get 120 chests (unless you spend 10b holy forging junk pieces). Would be nice if they added something new to the sylph exchange.
Sai evento e entra evento e continua sempre a mesma coisas o que ja esta ficando monotono e enjoativo, vem atualização do jogo mas esqueceram de avisa a R2 para atualizar os eventos muito decepcionado com o grupo que faz eventos para R2.
Я па го тоя говори на чужд език в английски сайт
Very weird the exchange for Blast of sun and sun core not showing up here in kong S4-oceanic. is it just me or is it for everyone. Well i cant check what they imputed into the r2 forums cause their forum is broken for some reason.
it would be REALLY nice to see some type of adv mahra in hot events…..they practically give away regular mahra and sepulcrums….if regular mahra returns are for example 100, how about a choice between that or maybe 10 or 20 advanced ?

Postcard from Hip-Hop New York : New York New York (various venues)
The sound is amazing...
NME.COM hip-hop expert Sarah Edwards (Blag Magazine) recently went to New York to go and see the Beastie Boys-organised 'Stop The Violence' concert. She also spent a week partying at some of the city's hottest hip-hop nights. This is what she saw….
One of the first parties NME.COM attends sees hip-hop's underground emerge en masse at the dauntingly cheesy BB King Blues Club in Times Square for the launch of 'Underground Airplay Version 1.01' – a compilation of new talent brought to heads by Lyricist Lounge and Ecko Unltd.
Lyricist Lounge has been responsible for the rise of some of today's bigger names, including [a]Eminem[/a] and Rah Digga, with their 'back in the day' open Mic nights. First up was Oakland's female MC Mystic. By way of freestyle she introduced us to soloist Tahir from the Dead Prez camp – then M of the duo makes a brief appearance. With beats by Hedrush – imagine Dead Prez anthem 'Hip Hop' meeting the Dirty South via New York – the sound is amazing.
Also billed are Obie Trice, Lord Have Mercy, The Outsidaz and former Arsonists member D-Story, one of the most over excited, entertaining and hyped MC for years. In the end, the highlight of the event is second host [a]Mos Def[/a] who held it down between the performances, freestyles and skits.
The next night then, and time for the Cali-Comm Tour. First up is Kut Masta Kurt with Motion Man, followed by Cali Agents. The Hieroglyphics Crew are in almost full effect tonight, minus Del, who is on duty with Damon Albarn's [a]Gorillaz[/a].
It had all started off with Pep Love who breezed through his set with aplomb. The underrated MC warm up the stage nicely for his bosses, Souls of Mischief, who show that after dropping their classic '93 to Infinity' almost ten years ago, they still have what it takes. Souls are overwhelmed by the warmth and enthusiasm from their New York audience, as they admit to NME.COM that they don't know what to expect.
Finally, it's [a]Pharcyde[/a]
's turn to play. Imani and Brown take to the stage with long-time DJ M-Walk and band, and gracefully roll out the hits we all knew and love. The most hilarious event of the evening is overhearing '"How many more West Coast rappers do we have to hear tonight?'". Erm, did you know where you were going?
Afterwards, luvvies gather at Hammerstein Ballroom for [a]Strokes[/a] and Moldy Peaches and scantily clad girls and guys argue their way into Lotus for Pete Tong.
NME.COM stays with the hip-hop all night long.

text: Many shall just continue to behave like before…..business as usual….even though the Word of Truth will be revealed to them. They will not pause from their church activities and arguments long enough to sit at His feet and listen to His voice like Mary did. Instead, like they will be like Martha being troubled about many things….cumbering themselves about with much "serving"….being too busy to really sit down and hear His words of life and spirit. Luke 10:38-42 KJV (38) Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. (39) And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word. (40) But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. (41) And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But all of their "serving" and cares of this world shall be taken away from them….because they will refuse to rest from their labors. Like Mary, we are to CHOOSE that good part. She had LEFT Martha alone to "serve". We are to rest from our labors and hear Him. (42) But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. Two shall be busy doing their church activities…..yet, one shall be taken and the other left at the hearing of the Lord's voice. One will hear and rest from their "labors" which do not profit them. Matthew 24:40-42 KJV (40) Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. (41) Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. (42) Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. Just like in the days of Noah and also in the days of Lot, many will continue to "eat and drink and marry". To "eat and drink" is to be an "idolater"….a covetous person…that will mock what they will hear because of their love of money. They will continue to handle the Word of God deceitfully for unjust gain. 1 Corinthians 10:7 KJV (7) Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. They will continue to marry, buy and sell, plant and build….. Luke 17:26-30 KJV (26) And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. (27) They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. (28) Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; (29) But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. (30) Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. They will continue to marry their "strange wives"….being carried about with many strange, COVETOUS doctrines of men by which they build their great ministries, building their grand church buildings, planting their churches, seeking to increase their glory, supposing that gain is godliness, etc. They use the commandments and doctrines of men to enrich themselves. There is NO PROFIT for those who are occupied with such things. We are to put away the "strange wives"….the strange doctrines of men that profit us NOTHING and FOLLOW HIM. Hebrews 13:9 KJV (9) Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. All of these things Solomon already did…and has already informed us that these things are a chasing after the wind. All of these things did Solomon…keeping with Him wisdom though. Solomon did build himself houses and planted vineyards….also married many foreign wives. Today, religious-sounding men do all of these things WITHOUT wisdom and they will not pause from all of their church activities to HEAR the Truth. They will not FEAR GOD and KEEP His commandments when they will hear the conclusion of the whole matter. Ecclesiastes 2:4-11 KJV (4) I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards: (5) I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: (6) I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees: (7) I got me servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me: (8) I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces: I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts. What profit is there if we gain the world yet lose our souls? (9) So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me. (10) And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour THERE IS NO PROFIT under the sun for those who will continue to do all of their works in darkness (UNDER the sun) and will refuse to come to the Light and rest from their works. (11) Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun. They will not be able to handle the Truth….that their "works" are evil...and will turn their ears from the Truth. John 7:7 KJV (7) The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. WE are His offspring….and not the other way around. God does not dwell in temples made with men's hands. He is not like the "gold or silver or stone graven by art and man's device". We are to rest from our church works and receive His Truth….for He commands that ALL MEN EVERYWHERE to change their minds (REPENT). Men are worshiping Him in vain because they have set aside His commandment (to have love for one another) in order to keep their church traditions. They "ignorantly worship" Him. Acts 17:22-31 KJV (22) Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. (23) For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. (24) God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; (25) Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; (26) And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; (27) That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: (28) For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. (29) Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. (30) And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (31) Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. (32) And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. (33) So Paul departed from among them. (34) Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them. But the "simple ones" will hear and yet continue to love simplicity and the scorners of the Truth will delight in their scorning and fools will hate KNOWLEDGE….hating the knowledge of God when they will HEAR it. Proverbs 1:22-33 KJV (22) How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? (23) Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. Wisdom will have called them and yet they will REFUSE. They will not REGARD what will be said but instead will set her counsel for naught and would not hear but DESPISE the reproof. But once the door has been shut, then there will be no remedy for them that will do these things…. (24) Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; (25) But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: (26) I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; (27) When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. (28) Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: Then it will be too late for they will have hated knowledge and did not CHOOSE the fear of the LORD and would not hear the counsel of Him and will despise all of the reproof. (29) For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: (30) They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof (31) Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. The simple will simply turn their ears from the Truth…and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them…because they will continue with their church activities…continuing to enrich themselves. (32) For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. (33) But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. 2 Timothy 4:2-4 KJV (2) Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. (3) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; (4) And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

STATE of Origin might be the showpiece event of the season but it is killing the NRL competition.
Club-game crowds are down by 23.4 per cent since the series started, TV ratings have slumped, players are suffering burnout and teams are getting an unfair advantage over others.
Two of the form teams in the competition are the Warriors and the Panthers, who have both stormed into finals contention because they don't provide any Origin players.
The Warriors were undefeated since Origin started, going into last night's game against the Rabbitohs in Perth.
They've beaten the Broncos twice, Manly, the Knights and Roosters, all of whom supply their highly paid stars to Origin.
The Panthers have flogged St George Illawarra twice and the Titans since Origin started.
Over the same period, the Broncos have lost five from six without Sam Thaiday, Justin Hodges, Matt Gillett and Corey Parker.
The Storm and the Cowboys have both handed over their four best players to Origin (the most of all the clubs) and have struggled as a result.
Melbourne gave up the competition lead to the Rabbitohs and the Cowboys are fighting to make the top eight.
Rugby league is the only major competition in the world that has such an unlevel playing field around representative football.
Australian clubs in rugby union's Super competition have all had a month off while their best players have been on duty for the Wallabies.
The English Premier League has free weekends set aside for internationals and World Cup qualifiers every year. Their TV networks just put up with it.
The NRL refuses to have stand-alone Origin weekends because broadcasters want games and programming every weekend.
Fans, however, are sick and tired of paying to watch substandard football without the superstars.
In round 12 there were only four NRL matches played but they were still missing 18 Origin players.
The average crowd for the first 11 rounds of the competition was 17,100. It has since dropped to 13,600, a fall of 23.4 per cent.
So what is our fearless leader Dave Smith doing about this rather important issue? Absolutely nothing.
Dave's in England right know, conveniently at the same time his family is there on holiday.
Forget the salary cap dramas, the terrible standard of refereeing, the fight to keep Sonny Bill Williams or this Origin fiasco ... Dave is at his first international board meeting.
The game that has only three serious countries competing, Australia, New Zealand and England, is apparently more important than dealing with what fans have been served up since Origin started.
Why an IRLB meeting couldn't have been done by a video conference call is anyone's guess.
Andrew Hill, the NRL's head of game development, is in England too.
They will also be watching the Australian Jillaroos, the Australian Students, the Australian Wheelchair Team, the Australian Police Team and the Australian Armed Forces Team at the Festival of World Cups, which finishes Tuesday.
So what is the solution to fixing the mess Origin creates and the fact some clubs have to give up millions of dollars of their talent, risk injury and suspension, while their rivals play on as normal and take full advantage of such an obviously unfair set of circumstances?
Why not play Origin over three straight weekends? Allow NSW and Queensland to pick squads of 22 players to be used over the three weekends.
Let the series gather momentum like the Lions-Wallabies rather than this stop-start excitement over more than six weeks.
Call the club games off. Send the stars who aren't playing to the bush on promotional tours.
Stage a midweek Sevens or a Nine's NRL club tournament to keep the broadcasters happy.
Do something ... because nothing is more important than this premiership being played out on a level field.
I AM member No.111 of the Cronulla Sharks. Lots has been written in recent days about my club's image, reputation and character, via the findings of a Melbourne-based marketing company.
Much of it has not been a true reflection of how the club is actually performing off the field.
The performance of our new board under the direction of three-time Olympian Damian Keogh in difficult times has been outstanding.
Keogh and his directors inherited a drug scandal, a salary cap rort, a club with no major sponsor, no CEO and almost the smallest number of members in the game.
A club in crisis and as bad as it can get from previous poor management.
Last week the Sharks signed a major sponsor and secured their 10,000th member, up by a staggering 92 per cent on last year.
They've signed a shorts sponsor and a sleeve sponsor in recent weeks. Home crowds are way up on last year. TV viewership is up 14 per cent.
Every corporate box was sold out on Friday night against the Wests Tigers. Other corporates were turned away from the Chairman's Lounge.
THE selection of Roosters forward Boyd Cordner on Sunday night as a standby player for injured Greg Bird in the NSW Blues squad is an inspired choice.
This youngster could even improve our chances of knocking off the Maroons if he gets a start on Wednesday week in the decider at ANZ Stadium.
He might lack the genuine toughness and experience Bird offers but there is not a more dangerous left-edge second-rower in the competition on form this year.
He has worked up a fabulous club combination with Mitchell Pearce, who knows his angles and timing from playing week-in, week-out football together.
It's only early days but there is something special about Cordner that reminds me a lot of the former champion Blues lock Bradley Clyde. His running power, his workrate, his class and his ability to find the tryline.
The selection of James McManus is also a great choice on the back of his four tries against the Titans last weekend.
We all feel for Nathan Merritt and recognise his wonderful talent and try-scoring potential in the NRL on the end of the Souths backline.
Souths v Warriors in Perth. The match sold out 48 hours in advance – and there were no free tickets given away. On Saturday, 2000 fans turned up just to watch a Rabbitohs training session.
St George Illawarra. This mob have nothing in attack and their defence is terrible. The Parramatta Eels are a very ordinary side but the Dragons will challenge them for the wooden spoon.
Benji Marshall was typical Benji Marshall on Friday night at Shark Park – inconsistent like he has been all year. One minute he was putting teammates into gaps, the next he was passing to the touch judge or failing to find touch with a penalty kick. He is not worth the money his manager is asking for.
Who would want to be an NRL coach? John Cartwright is the latest to be under serious pressure at the Titans. His side has now conceded 86 points in two weeks to the Knights and the Panthers. He has to make the top eight to be assured of keeping his job.
Queensland have a ready-made replacement for champion hooker and captain Cameron Smith. The Roosters' Jake Friend has been in sensational form for the club this year and will be ready for Origin – and probably Test football – whenever the Kangaroos skipper decides to call it a day.

Chartered's three fabs achieve QS-9000 certification
Post a comment
SINGAPORE -- Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd. here has received the QS-9000 certification for quality for its three fabrication facilities. The designation by the International Standards Organization (ISO) brings all of Chartered's production fabs into certification.
Earlier this year, Fab 5, the company's joint-venture with Lucent Microelectronics, also earned QS-9000 certification. Chartered's joint-venture facility with Agilent Technologies, Fab 6, is expected to begin volume production this year and gain the QS-9000 certification byyear-end.
Aachievement of the QS-9000 certification indicates that a company has developed a culture, for achieving the highest quality standards possible, and that it can document its processes. Criteria for the certification include a rigorous four-day audit of all shifts. During this process companies demonstrate that they have implemented an effective quality system. For customers, the designation is further assurance that strict internationally recognized quality system standards have been attained.
"A disciplined corporate culture and an unerring dedication to continuous improvement are critical requirements for meeting the rigorous demands of QS-9000 certification," said Lau Chi Kwan, Chartered's vice president of quality and reliability assurance. "Through the commitment of many internal organizations, we can now evaluate our quality systems against an international measuring stick for excellence. Systems like QS-9000 are critical in maintaining high industry standards for corporate citizenship."
Chartered's QS-9000 certification extends beyond the fabs to include administrative and support functions, including supply management, customer engineering, R&D, facilities, human resources, marketing and business development, he added.

JAKARTA, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Indonesia's sugar refining capacity will jump by a third to 4.2 million tonnes next year as three more refineries begin production to try and meet rising demand from the food and beverage industries, an industry group said on Tuesday.
There are now eight sugar refineries in Indonesia, which is set to be crowned the world's top importer of raw sugar in the year to September 2013, with existing capacity of 3.2 million tonnes, Suryo Alam, chairman of the Indonesian Sugar Refineries Association, told Reuters.
"Demand for processed food is increasing," said Alam, who also works at Singapore-listed palm trader Wilmar's Refined Sugars Group Indonesia unit, which runs two Indonesian sugar refineries.
Sugar refineries are now running at 70 percent capacity but this figure will slip to 65 percent next year as the new refineries pick up pace, he added.
Sugar consumption in Indonesia, the world's fourth most populous country, with around 240 million people, is seen growing around 4 to 5 percent annually and stands at about 5 million to 5.5 million tonnes now.
Helping boost this demand is industrial use of the sweetener, with raw sugar consumption by Indonesia's food and beverage industries set to climb by 9 percent this year.
Imports of raw sugar will reach 2.53 million tonnes this year, versus imports of 2.425 million in 2011.
Volumes covered by import permits in 2013 will rise to 2.7 million tonnes from 2.5 million this year, said Alam.
Indonesia limits imports of raw sugar, with Thailand and Brazil accounting for about 85 percent of supplies, to protect local farmers and aid domestic sugarcane mills.
The archipelago was the world's second-largest sugar exporter in the 1930s. But ageing sugar mills, a vast network of smallholders and an influx of cheaper imported sugar put pressure on local production.
Domestic production will be 2.45 million tonnes this year, up from 2.192 million tonnes in 2011, industry estimates show.
The island of Java supplies 60 percent of sugar output in Indonesia, where sugarcane farmers protested in December against plans to import sugar this year.
But late in September the country abandoned a target of becoming self-sufficient in the production of white sugar by 2014, after a struggle to boost output in the face of red tape over land licenses, competition for land and under-investment.

• Zollverein (details of membership, transport etc from nationalism essay)
• Acquired Rhineland from Austria in 1814/15: provided Prussia with most profitable piece of land filled with supplies of iron deposits.
• Make point clear that economic strength was needed to fund technology, transport, military etc.
N.B. Economy, military and Bismarck are essentially inter-linked. All played a part in each factor leading to unification.
• German – especially Prussian – industrial strength is regarded as crucial to German unification.
• Zollverein provided Prussia with technical & military superiority over its enemies in the wars of 1864-1871
• Economic strength allowed Prussia to dominate the Zollverein – an essential preliminary to its subsequent domination of Germany.
• Isolated Austria and got southern states to join north confederation. OTHER FACTORS:
• Highlight the importance of other factors.
• E.G. Economy being used correctly etc. So, Bismarck's guidance – forcing Landtag to increase taxes. Had this never happened, then would the economy have continued to thrive in the way that it did?
• Importance also of urbanisation – cities required people to man factories to increase industrialisation
No historian disputes the importance of the economy. They all recognise it as crucial to Prussia's development.
William Carr: The Zollverein was the "mighty lever of unification".
JM Keynes "unification was gained only through coal and iron"
• Bismarck's ultimate aim: to increase power and strength of Prussia by whatever means possible!
• Bismarck was a junker, conservative, anti-nationalist. According to Aronson "Contrary to what he was to claim later in life, the unification of Germany was never one of his original ambitions."
• Bismarck had great influence on Prussian King (as Chancellor from 1862) – seen with the dispute with Landtag army dispute....

Find it & enjoy on I-tunes, Beatport, Spotify, Amazon, Google Music, eMusic & many more.

Beyond just sharing the same musical tastes, these two buddies bond over both being sound engineers (live for Ijs, studio for Gert), which makes them real "goldsmiths" behind each and every production (such can be seen in this short clip which presents their title "The Ginning"). Their music is imprinted with original inspirations while keeping to a jazzy/burlesque influence, leaving little to be left displeased. The bridge, so it seems, borderlines between minimal and jazz-house. The first title of the EP, "The Ginning" is constructed around guitarist, Max Honckelinx. The track's instrumental harmony is skilfully constructed by the duo as they borderline minimal and deep house. The second original title of the EP, "The Finishing" is merely a dialogue between a rhythmic stratospheric universe and the sax of Nathan Daems, well preserved from the first studio recording. The end result leaves us with 8 minutes of lyricism soaked in sophistication and technicality. In regards to the remixes, Felkon, who has been presented several times before on the Délicieuse, takes on "The Ginning" by including vocals which create a more dance-like ambiance. Britta Arnold, a legendary pioneer from Bar 25 and Katerholzig, worked on "The Ginning" as well with Sascha Cawa. They delivered a version more obscure yet wickedly effective. As for the remixes of "The Finishing", Powel continues to captivate us while executing his deep and melancholic twists. He entirely redesigns the piece's structure by retiring the "voice" of the sax. And then there's our man, Viken Arman, who spins his version of "The Finishing" by refiguring the rhythm pattern and adding a new dimension to the bass.

We have written before about bird louse flies (hippoboscids), but I never get tired of their flat, creepy look. Recently, our ornithology collections manager, Kimball Garrett, contacted me and said "Hey, Brian, are you interested in some hippoboscids from a least bittern (Ixobrychus exilis) from Malibu",- of course I was, what an unusual host from which to get hippos (what us entomologists endearingly call them)!
Let me note here that although they are called "bird louse flies, they are actually more like fleas, with the ability to easily move from one host to another (unlike their wingless, more sedentary namesakes). They feed on the blood of their bird "hosts".
Anyway, keying them out with my trusty "Manual of Nearctic Diptera", I came easily to the name Ornithoica, of which there were supposed to be two North American species. Intrigued enough to continue further, I looked up the latest key to species (which was from 1966!) and confirmed that the 5 flies all belonged to the species Ornithoica confluenta, known only from South America, the Caribbean, and southern Florida. At least, that was their known distribution in 1966; things might have changed, but it is undoubtedly a rare record!

Immature ladybug eating flower fly larva, photo by Brian Brown. Urban Nature Research Center (UNRC) co-director Dr. Brian Brown recently wandered out of his home into his Monrovia backyard and caught sight of something unexpected on the outside of his insect trap: an immature ladybug (also known as a larva or grub) consuming the larva of a flower fly (also known as a maggot). The large, tent-like Malaise trap—used in the UNRC's BioSCAN project to collect and study flying insects from multiple sites across Los Angeles—has a sloped, white mesh cover that serves as a perfect backdrop to capture an image of a bristly black and orange ladybug larva mid-meal. Brian's Malaise trap sits at the foot of an old, towering Valencia orange tree, which thrives and produces massive amounts of citrus despite hosting armies of what most of us consider garden pest enemies. "The tree is festooned with scale insects, aphids and whitefly," Brian says. The tree is never sprayed with any kind of pesticide or treatment, and for that reason beneficial insects, with their smorgasbord of dinner options, are a year-round presence in Brian's garden. The larvae of both ladybugs and flower flies are voracious predators, eating hundreds of soft-bodied, sap-sucking pests and are prized inhabitants of his garden. "Ladybugs are thought of as cute, storybook creatures. They're actually lions, ferocious predators as larvae and adults." What struck him about the vision of a ladybug larva chowing down on a fellow beneficial bug? It's not often, he says, you see one beneficial insect consuming another. "It challenges how we think about what it means to be beneficial."

Photo by Kelsey Bailey. Insects inspire wonder, curiosity, fear or disgust, but very few have caused the widespread panic, political controversy, and public outcry like the Mediterranean fruit fly. Shortly after appearing in California in the early 1980s, the saga of the Medfly erupted into a battle between the Agricultural Industry and the residents of the affected counties, with local politicians wedged firmly in between. As an entomologist from L.A., the aerial spraying of pesticide over the city to combat the Medfly that happened so long ago is still one of the topics I am most often asked about. It is firmly etched in many Angelenos' memories, but most are unaware of what became of this notorious little fly.
The Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Photo credit: Kelsey Bailey First let's take a moment to gaze upon the beauty of this insect: the yellow tiger-stripes, black bands, iridescent eyes, and sweet little face belies the damage this insect can cause. Medflies lay their eggs inside of a wide variety of fruit (apples, avocados, citrus-- to name just a few), and it is estimated that the total value of crops that could harbor destructive Medfly larvae (the "maggot" stage of the fly) is more than 7.2 billion dollars. This considerable financial threat to California's agricultural industry set in motion a massive attack to try to eradicate the invasive pest 30 years ago. Helicopters loaded with the pesticide Malathion flew over L.A. and Orange counties, triggering hysteria as people were asked to stay indoors and cover their cars to reduce paint damage. Despite the best efforts by the authorities to state the low risk of this pesticide, the public was not persuaded. There was a collective negative gut reaction as some described the scene as reminiscent of "Apocalypse Now." (In true L.A. fashion, the aerial spraying over L.A. inspired the opening scene of Robert Altman's 1993 film "Short Cuts"). The story gets stranger. As public outcry intensified and the federal government intervened against Governor Jerry Brown's decision to halt aerial spraying, a bioterrorist group that called themselves "the Breeders" claimed responsibility for releasing more Medflies into targeted areas. In a letter sent to major newspapers and Mayor Tom Bradley's office, the group threatened to continue releasing flies unless the aerial spraying ended. To this day, no evidence has surfaced to confirm whether the releasing of Medflies by the Breeders was a hoax, but in light of the public relations fiasco and extreme opposition, it was clear another approach to a very serious problem had to be found. And it was.
Sterile male Medflies are identified with a red dye marker. Photo credit: Kelsey Bailey. If you look again at the fly portraits above, it's possible they may seem familiar. Chances are that many of you reading this have seen a Medfly in L.A. before. On the surface, that may sound troubling, but the Medflies most often encountered are little heroes that are unknowingly fighting the good fight against, well, themselves. An ingenious method called the Sterile Insect Technique, implemented in the mid 1990s, is used to irradiate male Medflies, damaging their testes and making them infertile. The sterile male medflies are then airdropped out of helicopters like miniature secret agents, hopefully hitting their targeted areas but sometimes turning up in very surprising places. One sterile male Medfly was collected from the top of the U.S. Bank tower at a height of 1, 018 feet! Fortunately, all of that action does not stop them from seeking out love amongst the fruit trees, and the females are happy to oblige with these available sterile bachelors. The result is an astounding success story that has reduced the medfly infestations in L.A. by 93%, protected our state's agricultural assets, and minimized pesticide use over urban areas.

I just found out we have ant-decapitating flies here in Los Angeles! Dr. Brian Brown, the Museum's Curator of Entomology and one of the world's foremost experts on flies, made a chance discovery by looking right under the nose of an unsuspecting USC student. It all started last Friday, while we were enjoying a nice stroll through the Nature Gardens. First, we checked out the Malaise trap that Brian and his staff set up as part of the BioSCAN project, which aims to survey the insect biodiversity here in Los Angeles. Then, we headed into the Nature Lab to see insects from this trap, and the 25 others that have been placed all over Los Angeles, being sorted.
As we got close to the demo table, Brian was suddenly transfixed. He'd seen something interesting on the screen that shows visitors the insects our scientists are sorting under the microscope. By some amazing coincidence, the USC student who was sorting a sample collected in Glendale, just happened to be looking at a phorid fly. Phorids, aka humpbacked flies, are the group of flies that Brian studies, and according to him, they are a mega-diverse family. How mega, you might ask? Apparently, there are estimated to be 40,000-50,000 species of phorid flies, and only 4,000 have been described by scientists so far. Wow!
But, it wasn't just any phorid fly. After taking a look through the microscope himself, Brian nonchalantly walks back over to me and said, "Yep, it's an ant decapitating fly." Whoa, what? I had no idea we had ant-decapitating flies (ADFs) here in L.A.! How could he have neglected to mention this exciting fact during all of our insect musings? Sure he's regaled me with stories of ADFs from Costa Rica and Brazil, always with devilish decapitating detail. But, he never mentioned we have phorids in the genus Pseudacteon, also known as fire ant decapitating flies, here in L.A. Fire ant decapitating flies do just as their name implies. When a female is ready to lay an egg, she locates an unsuspecting worker ant and injects her egg into the thorax. As the larva develops it migrates into the head capsule and molts a number of times. Through this entire process the ant behaves normally. However, just before pupation, the maggot begins to consume the tissue inside the ant's head, which causes the ant to act oddly, and soon after, to expire. The head falls off and the mouth parts are pushed out, so the oral cavity is clear. As the larva pupates, the adult fly emerges from the now-clear oral cavity of the ant. How's that for an alien ant birth? Later that day, Brian wrote an e-mail to the homeowner where the trap was located in Glendale: "Your backyard trap got something unusual- a phorid fly (the group of insects I study) of the genus Pseudacteon. The flies in this genus are all ant parasites, developing in the ant's head, and are referred to as 'ant-decapitating flies.' Usually, in suburban areas, the ant hosts of Pseudacteon are eliminated by the introduced Argentine ant, but you must have (or be close to) a healthy native ant fauna!" This, as Dr. Luis Chiappe, Vice President of the Museum's Research and Collections Department, put it, "is the power of science!" The presence of this parasite, allowed Brian to infer the presence of the host. If we went out to Glendale today, we'd likely be able to find native fire ants somewhere close by! And I know you all dying to join me on that adventure.

PEOPLE trying to listen to a speech by far-right Dutch MP Geert Wilders were pushed to the ground outside a venue in Melbourne yesterday.
A group of about 40 protesters blocked the gate leading into the Somerton function centre and stopped people from entering.
A large number of police, including mounted officers, were on patrol but made no initial attempt to move them.
Mr Wilders was due to give a speech last night in the first part of his Australian tour. He will deliver speeches in Sydney and Perth later this month.
At a press conference Mr Wilders said immigration from Islamic countries should stop but asylum seekers, whose lives were at risk, were OK.
He added most Muslims were not extremists but Islamic ideology would never integrate in democratic societies: "Never, ever, no way."
He added that the Koran incited violence.
"Islam and freedom are incompatible," he said.
Mr Wilders was due to visit Australia last October but was forced to postpone the trip because the federal government took its time deciding whether to approve his visa.
Victorian Premier Ted Baillieu said yesterday Mr Wilders was wrong and that there was clear evidence multiculturalism was a positive.

"Only in quiet waters things mirror themselves undistorted. Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world." - Hans Margolius
They say perception is 9/10 reality. I think that may have been true before the advent of Facebook and Twitter, but nowadays, perception is truly what you make of it. You can say what you want in the virtual world, create whatever personae you wish to be, but that may not be a reflection of true life. How many times do you hear tales of online scams and internet paramours taking advantage of innocent and desperate people? I myself was once almost a victim of such a scam, but fortunately realized I was being snookered before any money changed hands. It's so easy to get taken in by the perception that the person on the other end of the virtual wire has intentions that are good and pure.
I hate to tell you, but as altruistic as Bill Gates is, he's not just handing out money to random strangers for passing on an email to their ten closest friends. He would be broke several times over by now if that were truly the case. I work in a place where I often receive complaints from recipients of these phishing mails...mostly from concerned citizens who know it's a scam, but occasionally from hapless souls who are desperate for the money, and want so badly for it to be true. Those are the ones I feel for as they will likely fall prey to evil intentions.
In this modern age of social networking, we are flooded with information to which we may not have had access before (i.e. what are your friends having for dinner; where are they having dinner; and with whom are they having dinner?). This trove of information in turn, begs the question:
Why is that information important to know? Is it a natural human desire for attention? Perhaps in some cases. I know I'll tag myself in places or with people as I know it will strike up a conversation or invite some sort of reaction from others. I also do it out of boredom, particularly if I'm alone and have no one to converse with face to face. The internet is a great place to reach out to your community (real or imagined) and feel connected. It's that connection with other people that keeps us engaged with life. It's why I refresh my Facebook feed 39 times a day. It's why I scroll through Twitter when I'm bored at work. It's even why I write this blog: to reach out and touch someone.
On the flip side though...it's still a bunch of noise. Loud, staticky noise. Which bring me to the quote at the top of this blog:
"Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world."
With so much noise these days, can we really expect that everything we perceive is reality? We are constantly inundated with information at a speed with which our feeble minds may not be able to accurately process. I know for myself, I tend to over-analyze the more information I have thrown at me, and that my perception of reality occasionally does not match up to the real deal. My view can easily get distorted and until I have clarity, I can believe that which may not be true. And being the intelligent person I am, I tell myself not to read too much into things that I see online, but my instinct to believe that which I see often overpowers common sense. And I know I'm not alone.. we have all been guilty of that. It's just the way we are programmed as humans. We want to believe what we see; the good, the bad and the ugly, because if we can't rely on visual perception what can we rely on? As a species, we have not evolved extra-sensory perception, so we have no choice but to initially believe what we see. We need to learn to condition ourselves to allow common sense to step in and ask the question: "Is it real?"
That's not to say we should go around doubting everything and not trusting people. On the contrary, one thing the internet had also done is allow us to peak into people's lives and see what they are about. Some tend to use Facebook and Twitter as a sounding board, an avenue to vent, which is fine as long as you don't go too far with it. But realizing you may be looking at - or even through - a filter will go a long way to quiet the noise in your mind.

The Virginia defense did not allow Duke to score in the first quarter of Saturday's 31-21 win over the Blue Devils, but that didn't come as much of a surprise. The Cavaliers have given up a grand total of 10 first-quarter points all season. Virginia entered the weekend tied with Stanford for the fewest points allowed in the first quarter in the nation, but after the Cardinal gave up eight first-quarter points in a 53-30 loss Saturday to Oregon, the Cavaliers owned the top spot all to themselves.
Indeed, the statistics have been most favorable for Virginia of late. The Cavaliers have won three straight games and stand as one of two teams (the other being Virginia Tech) that are still in contention for the ACC's Coastal Division crown. Should Virginia win at No. 23 Florida State on Saturday and should No. 9 Virginia Tech win Thursday against North Carolina, the Cavaliers and Hokies would meet Nov. 26 in Charlottesville with a spot in the ACC title game on the line.
But let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. Instead, let's focus for a bit longer on Virginia's win Saturday over Duke. The Blue Devils had won three straight games against Virginia – a distinction no ACC team wants to have to carry around – so I'm sure Coach Mike London and his players were happy to snap that streak.
But the game also continued a recent trend that should be encouraging to Virginia followers: Of late, the Cavaliers have been winning the games they're supposed to win. They took care of a Maryland squad that is having a disastrous season under first-year Coach Randy Edsall, and they finished off a Duke program that serves perennially as a conference doormat.
Not that any of you have forgotten, but Virginia has proven capable of winning games it wasn't expected to – see games against then-No. 12 Georgia Tech and at Miami – as well in the past five weeks. The Cavaliers seem to be rounding into form, and it will be interesting to see over the regular season's final two weeks whether they have peaked or are still en route to that point.
Three Up:
1) Matt Conrath/Defensive line. Conrath blocked another field goal Saturday – his third of the season – and that's mostly what he was asked about after the game. But what was equally – if not more – impressive was his performance a few plays earlier. Duke faced first and 10 from the Virginia 13-yard line in what at that point was a scoreless game. Conrath, from his position at defensive tackle, noticed the guard nearest him was light in his stance, which clued Conrath in that the guard likely was going to pull to the outside. At the snap, the guard pulled and Conrath charged through the hole. The offensive tackle who was supposed to step over and block Conrath was slow to do so, and Conrath wrapped up Duke quarterback Sean Renfree before Renfree could hand the ball off. The ball came loose, but the Blue Devils recovered. Still, Conrath caused Duke to lose five yards on the play. On the whole, the Virginia defensive line played well Saturday. The Cavaliers' top five defensive linemen (Conrath, Cam Johnson, Nick Jenkins, Will Hill and Jake Snyder) combined to tally 24 tackles, four tackles for a loss and one sack. They played a key role in limiting Duke to 34 rushing yards on the day.
2) The offensive line. Virginia gained 165 rushing yards on 42 carries (3.9 yards per carry), which is impressive, but considering Duke entered the game allowing an average of 161.3 rushing yards per game, the Cavaliers' success on the ground should have been expected. Still, Virginia owns the third-most potent rushing attack in the ACC, and that's nothing to scoff at. Also, for the third straight game, the offensive line did not allow a sack. Only nine FBS teams in the nation have allowed fewer sacks than Virginia (eight) this season, and none of those teams reside in the ACC.
3) Max Milien. The fifth-year senior fullback entered Saturday's game averaging 1.5 receptions per contest and had rushed the ball once all season. But against Duke, Milien carried the ball twice for seven yards and caught a team-high four passes for a career-high 62 yards. Milien said that early last week he jokingly pined to get the ball more often in games with offensive coordinator Bill Lazor. The good-natured plea seems to have paid off.
Three Down:
1) Pass defense. We'll delve more into this in a blog post later this morning, but here are the basics: Virginia allowed Duke – which, granted, possesses a highly-effective passing offense – to gain 303 yards through the air Saturday. Somewhat inexplicably, the Blue Devils went away from the pass for most of the third quarter. In the past three games, Virginia has allowed an average of 306.3 passing yards. Its next opponent, Florida State, owns the second-most prolific passing offense (282.7 ypg) in the ACC.
2) Penalties. The Cavaliers reverted back toward its 2010 ways in regards to penalties Saturday. Virginia was flagged six times for 43 yards, which isn't egregious, but it's not as disciplined as London would prefer, either. On the season, Virginia is averaging 5.3 penalties and 42.1 penalty yards per game, which is still markedly better than last season, when the Cavaliers averaged 8.2 penalties and 73.3 penalty yards per game.
3) Punt returns. This point, of course, is setting aside the 21-yard punt return by junior tailback Perry Jones in the third quarter. But the fact that special teams coordinator Anthony Poindexter felt the need to turn to Jones late in the game says something about the team's confidence level in true freshman Dominique Terrell, at least as it pertains to returning punts this season. There's no question the coaching staff believes in Terrell's skills and potential or they wouldn't have made him the primary punt returner in the first place. But Terrell hasn't progressed at a very noticeable rate thus far. He still seems unsure at times of whether to field a punt, let it drop or call for a fair catch. He let one bounce in front of him in the first quarter Saturday and it ended up hitting his leg because he failed to get out of the way. Duke recovered the ball. London said Sunday that at the point in the game when the coaches replaced Terrell with Jones as the punt returner, they just wanted to make sure "that the moment didn't get too big again for" Terrell.

Lincoln Sentinel-Republican, Feb. 2, 1956
There are probably few people left here who remember the loghouses and dugouts built by the first settlers in this section of the country. J.C. Ruppenthal of Russell, one of the pioneer residents of Lincoln county, gives a striking history of life in this section at that time and describes some of the loghouses and dugouts built during the period, in an article recently printed in the Wilson World, and which follows:
The settlers of those days who landed from a U.P. train at Wilson had to drive about eight or 10 miles north to see a tree of any kind. He might then see the Twin Groves where Scout Farley made his residence until his death in the Arickaree battle with the Indians in northeastern Colorado. In one of three groves on Dry creek, a log house was built about 1869. It is said that a man named Phelps or Phillips built the latter.
This house was 24 feet long east and west and 16 feet wide north and south. Most of the logs were about 10 inches to one foot thick, but one that was laid first on the earth was about 15 to 18 inches wide. Nearly all the logs were rough hewn for the inside and outside of the house, but not on the upper and lower sides. Varieties included oak, ash, elm and cottonwood.
Each side of the house had one window space about two feet square cut through the logs. A sash of about six small panes of glass was put in each for light. An average sized man involuntarily ducked a little when about to enter the only door which was on the south.
For 11 years that log house was chief home of this writer. Thin flagstones of limestone, later called post rock, laid upon the ground made the floor for 8 to 10 feet. The rest of the floor was made of grooved flooring after some years of bare earth.
Log houses similar to the above mentioned were built down the Saline Valley by Wm. T. Prescott, Wm. Hilmer, and as early as 1874, by Herman Witte, all close to the river. Other such houses along Twin Creek (west fork) were by an Ohio colony: C.M. Heaton, John Pugh, A.T. Biggs and others. Westward of Twin Groves and the Phelps loghouse were M.W. Hurlbut, John Putman, Dennis Lambert and sons. Henry Kies moved his loghouse about a mile from the east end of his claim to the other end. Farther up the Saline river, a loghouse was on Hell creek.
Need of a dwelling place led to digging a dugout when logs were not available for a loghouse. A dugout was made at the east end of the claim owned by Charles Randall on Section 32. Remains may still be seen. This was used as a school house for several months in the summer of 1879 when Miss Belle Coover taught there.
By the next year Joseph Brichacek had built a small stone house on his homestead just west of the Randall claim, and Miss Maud Davis of Lincoln Center taught a school there which closed Aug. 13, 1880, with a farewell picnic in the Twin or Farley Groves. Seven of that school are known to live yet.
A unique variation from that of the area which developed to a post office at Sylvan Grove, was the cabin or dugout of four young Kansas Pacific railroad hands, recently arrived from Germany, who wanted free lands and each filed on 80 acres for a homestead on the east section 22-12-10w. They dug a cellar where the four tracts had a common corner. This cellar was one fourth on each tract. It was roofed over and made a home for the four until conditions improved. In this way, they met the U.S. Land Office requirements that a settler must live on his claim and improve it. Although all four young bachelors owned only the fourth of the dugout, each was able to eat and rest and sleep on his own land, though all four were in one room.
Later each built a good frame house at the other ends of their claims and brought a young bride thither.
These pioneers were William Hilmer, Benjamin Oschwald (then known as Oswald) and two brothers, Fred and Chris Meyer.
