Pick a chair,any chair.
Now I am a definitely a chair lover! Especially mid century classics like the wishbone chair. I can really appreciate any material,any shape, simple or more sophisticated. A popular look right now is the ecclectic use of mis-matched chairs around your table. As a self proclaimed, orderly and organised person, I would never have thought I would embrace this somewhat disorganised look but. . . . . . . . . I do! I love the mixing of woods,colours and fabrics creating an exciting and unique look. A matching set is not where it's at!! So check out these tables and the great chairs surrounding them.
Love,love,love these! Notice how the blue and the red are repeated throughout.
Simple-a chair for everyone even the baby!
Colour and shape with a classic black table to ground it.
Shabby chic at it's best.
Simple wooden chairs around a colourful dining table.
The warmth and character of wood.
Same chair (IKEA) two different looks. (Martha Stewart)
Bold blue unifies the mix of seating,
One chair,two tones. Wood or white which will it be?.
A true blend of time periods but it works.
I'm on the hunt for vintage chairs maybe I will mix it up too, how about you?

After three albums where each was an improvement on the former, indie-cabaret darlings Devotchka continue to move forward. Capturing all the drama inherent in Eastern European folk styles and pairing it with the more dramatic end of indie rock (think Arcade Fire or Calexico), Devotchka carve out a rich little niche for itself. The band tips its glass to a number of influences on this six-song E.P - along with the original title track, the band offers up covers that range from Siouxsie And The Banshees' "The Last Beat Of My Heart" to the Velvet Underground's "Venus And Furs" to the Sinatra tune "Something Stupid." Regardless of the source material, the band wholly remakes each tune, skillfully playing a mariachi band on "El Zopilote Mojado" or the moody troubadour on the title song. It all fits together like a jigsaw puzzle with no pieces missing, proving that this band's interpretive skills are just as strong as its compositional ones. -- Tad Hendrickson Mad props to Xiomara - the coolest pirate chick, ever!!!

This General Tso's Chicken is reminiscent of New York City Chinese take out from the 20th century. It's sweet, spicy, and crispy. It's completely delicious too.
It's almost the last day of the fifteen days of Chinese New Year, and a new wok somehow landed on my doorstep in a box that had a smiley arrow on it. How does this keep happening?
I think it might have something to do with listening to an old Splendid Table podcast with Ming Tsai as the guest talking about the virtues of using a wok.
The first dish I tried was this vegetable stir fry. Loved it.
For my next try, I decided to be adventurous and try deep frying in the wok. I am more than excited about how this chicken turned out, and it was really easy. We served it with rice and a salad, and it was a wonderful meal. The chicken was so incredibly crispy.
Update: February, 2017, four years later! This is still one of my favorite dishes. I've updated the photos for this post for the Year of the Rooster, but left this photo below from my original post. If you follow this blog, you know that I've been stir-frying for four years now! I can't believe this is was my second stir-fry in my wok. Here's one of the original photos.
General Tso's Chicken
- In a large bowl, combine the marinade ingredients. Add the chicken pieces and stir to coat. Set aside for 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine all of the sauce ingredients and whisk to dissolve the cornstarch. Set aside.
- In a large shallow bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, salt, and pepper.
- Toss in the marinated chicken pieces to coat with the cornstarch mixture and place the pieces on a plate to "stage" them for frying.
- Heat the three cups of oil in the wok to 350 degrees F.
- In two or three batches (three for me), fry the chicken pieces for 4 to 5 minutes, until golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Using a spider or slotted spoon, remove the chicken to a paper towel lined plate. Repeat.
- Pour the oil into a heat proof container, and wipe out the wok (don't wash it).
- Reheat the wok with 1 T of oil over medium to high heat.
- Add the chili flakes and garlic and cook for 20 seconds.
- Add the sauce and stir until thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the chicken pieces and stir until coated with the sauce.
- Place the coated chicken pieces in a serving dish and sprinkle with the sesame seeds and scallions.

Small-press publishers have the lucky opportunity to talk candidly with authors about the downturns and updrafts of the creative process which brought them to the moment of completion that we call a book. As Omnidawn's co-publisher and senior poetry editor, I've had that great good fortune. It finally occurred to me that the readers and reviewers of these books might enjoy hearing some of this talk, too. Of course, a book of poetry needs no introduction or liner notes. But I'm always interested in any stories about how and where authors' intentions and the actual creative work tangle together. So I started asking each of our authors a few questions in writing, and then enclosing these "interviews" with our advance/review copies. When the book is published, I post the interview on the book's web page. The Conversant's editors have asked if they might select some of those interviews to publish. It is my pleasure to say yes! This conversation focuses on Elena Karina Byrne's book, Squander. –Rusty Morrison
Rusty Morrison: I felt such delight when I first read your manuscript and experienced your deft, surprising control of image as it reflects and refracts ideation. In your poems, new understanding comes to us through both mimetic and metaphoric surface tension, achieved with choices of diction, lexicon, sonic techniques, and more. A rich tension of excitement of surface elements is in fluid continuity with the deeper meanings of the work. Can you discuss your use of image and trope? Your approach to image and how it informs your craft as a poet?
Elena Karina Byrne: I grew up with artists and visual art: contemporary/conceptual and performance art. My life began and will no doubt end in images. They are not only the primitive dial plate for the brain, but a perceptual means in which to discover and address ideation. I believe the use of imagery is a profound act of translation, a necessary process of attention that, in its associative leaps and asymmetrical weaves, destabilizes the course of logical thought in order to create new in-roads of investigation toward alarming, and sometimes more accurate moments of revelation.
The images often come first then procreate into an intimate puzzle… and like "the mouth that, in telling its secret, places itself at the mercy of an indiscreet listener." (Leonardo da Vinci's Notebooks) Imagery for me involves indirect enumeration, a wonderful challenge in chance and paradox, in recapturing and re-seeing. The idea means nothing without images––for me at least, because as they propose a concrete representation, they also truly characterize the abstract contemplation that leads to something "new" and vitally undiscovered. Imagery instigates. Imagery is cultural artifact. Imagery is consequence, deliberate and inadvertent. Imagery is the unresolved. Since clarity is not easy for me, imagery is my best vantage point of passionate departure.
One could argue that images are the only tools for innovation. I laugh when someone thinks cutting language or moving lines and words around on the page makes for innovative writing. Those are, for me, merely clever technical exercises. But, there's an inexhaustible warehouse of images (tied to memory, emotion and acts of cognition) unique to every individual. Imagery provides endless polyvalent associations to a life both lived and imagined. Images create a permeable layer between what is said and what is felt, between what is known and what is unknown. This involves a self-interrogation that perhaps relies on speaking the difficult language of intuition.
At a very young age, my mother taught me the great art of intuition by asking me to describe the art shows. I didn't have the vocabulary, so I "saw" analogous interpretations. Like a painting, each image carries more than one allegory on its back––and each provides a visual space and a means in which to open more doors and windows in the cavernous cinematic house of the brain. With the metaphysical domain of an inside and outside, images imply a perceptual on-going action, a timelessness. Trope's Latin from Greek tropos origins means to turn…there, imagery's figurative means to set the metaphors turning in motion.
As a hyper-energized Tomboy and awarded athlete, I also developed a body-physical relationship to the world and knowledge of its parts. I think language is merely one tool that carries and characterizes both our abstract and literal relationships to knowledge as the narrative tangent to action and sensory experience. It too is a very physical thing. I think through imagery, so my choices of diction, lexicon and sonic techniques are there to provide rhythmic variety (the way a film changes pace) and tension to enhance the picture. The use of sounds in my writing process is key. Music persuades. Sometimes I feel like the aural integrity brings the images to life on the page in a way my rational mind could not do. I guess you can say it's a synaesthetic copulative dance. Sound can be three-dimensional as well…
With so many poets moving away from image, I'd like to challenge myself to write an entire group of poems that create an action and narrative solely by the theatrical accumulation of visuals…no connecting verbs, no accompanying interpretation or philosophy. A Hockney set of polaroids.
Have you ever played "capture the flag?" That's how I feel when I write: constantly moving at high speed within the confine of the mindscape, all the while seeing the landscape, the other runners, peripherally, the flag bright in your fist as you fly down the field.
RM: As I understand the text, there are two types of poems: "Fables" (which reflect, to some degree, upon word origin and/or mythology) and "Concordances" (which might consider authors, artist fragments, and/or mythology). A reader need not become aware of these two categories as she reads the text in order to gain a full and satisfying experience of these poems. But the intrepid reader who appreciates perusing "Notes" at the end of a work will come upon these two categories and will see that poems receiving notes are listed under one or the other. Not surprisingly, there are more poems under the category of "Fables" that obliged you to offer notes. Could you speak to each of these categories? How do they each engage your intuition differently? What did each offer you as your wrote, and how were their demands upon you different? Was the order of the book influenced by this difference?
EKB: When starting Squander, I decided I needed a new engine for the poems. I became obsessed with word origins early in my career, how their radiating ties with history and odd language developments lead me to reinvent. I love to do research as a kind of warm-up before writing. Besides providing information, research forces me to approach my subjects from a liminal threshold. The original old version of the Dictionary of Phrase and Fables instigated my desire to dialogue with the material, just as my creating my own random concordance of artist fragments allowed for a kind of free interchange dialogue. Juxtaposition lies at the heart of this experience. It's a kind of new cartography chronologizing the wayward imagination. It was also my way of resisting a straightforward characterization of what I wanted to say––it demanded of me an indirect look, an arrhythmic unraveling, which in turn, created (I hope) a more urgent sense of immediacy to the poetic experience. I hate complacency and so like to make myself uncomfortable at first. In the "I, she, me, you" equation there is a fifth self-voyeur who gets bored easily.
The Fables helped me move away from the purely personal, subjective side of poetry. The Fables, performed a rite of passage to real and imagined meaning, to the occult counterfactuals presented, according to its author. I was interviewing the facts in order to find a new fiction. This became a kind of wrestling match. The timeframe and the emotional overtones came clear during the process. That was important for me: I like a poem with some semblance of a heartbeat! In her book Remote Control, Power, Cultures and the World of Appearance, artist Barbara Kruger says television "sells time." Poetry does this too—differently, sometimes the way a thief sells his own art… own heart.
The Concordances provided a language courtship and involved a form of ventriloquy coaxed from the extracted language fragments. This occasionally created a kind of perceptual parody like Rauschenberg's Erased de Kooning Drawing, beginning in erasure but finding its opposite arena of provocation. The natural (it felt natural ) collaboration became a re-contextualized, often passionate, sometimes ambivalent language course of action conjuring a new consciousness for each text. The concordances also created a combined voice, a new persona with a new body, "all translated into the language of the limbs." (Plath) I could have written hundreds of these, but had to stop.
RM: You are so accomplished at drawing the most relevant and provocative quotes to incorporate in the body of your poems. This is not an easy task! If the quote is too common, the reader is dulled. If the quote does too much work for the poem, is too complete in its performance, then it also dulls the work. There's such an exacting balance needed in selecting just enough to engage with your text enticingly, as your poem lifts that language into its own arenas of thought. How did you work with these challenging issues in selecting your material? What is the impulse, or what guiding wisdom allowed you such deft selection? If you are willing, you might tell us which poems gave you especially interesting or aggravating challenges and why, and/or which poems surprised you and taught you unexpected approaches to this kind of work.
EKB: I try to be very aware, very wary of quotes that are too familiar or more powerful a promise than the text provides. Again, as with Masque, quotes engendered poems and became a triad's third voice for me, an additional format for the internal dialogue with the external impulse of language. I was often called the queen of quotes after that, yikes! In regard to the Concordances, the required process I created was this: write down four pages worth of random fragment-quotes (no full sentences), nothing too poetic or familiar, sometimes even mundane, nevertheless quotes that instigated action or a sense of declaration. Then I studied the pages to find one fragment that would begin the poem…from there I added my own line or two as a follow-through thought (an implied logic), then a line from the artist, then my own etc., until a new consciousness was created from the language interchange and eventually, the subject evolved from that–– a little like a found poem, except the lines I created had to be part of an unexpected forward-moving direction, away from the artist text. Sometimes this proved to be arduous. Once the process started however, it felt very fluid. The most difficult ones involved a writer or artist I was emotionally tied to, too close too, i.e. Roethke.
When motivated, I work fast and I thrive in chaos. Noise doesn't bother me; it may even instigate action. Hindrance oils the machine. Excess feeds the communion with language. Even doing research becomes a hyperactive, intuitive art. The Fables engaged my intuitive understanding of how antiquated and disparate things are tied together, unified to make one whole definition. I had to create, out of the old, a new definition for each object. I found myself rocking when writing these, ("in the zone?") as if I was rowing toward the subject, conjuring, animating, physically pulling something out of obsolescence in bringing forth the askew revelations. Almost as if I found a way to best use what was malfunctioning in my brain. I've now learned to trust the almost blindfolded walk through subject and emotion.
The order of Squander was determined by the fact that much of this book was immersed in language play and language's relationship to the speaker… who and what was being addressed. Three sections present three quotes that indicate the overall trope. Language sees. Language is actually a three-dimensional material like clay. It's structural/architectural and so one could stand back and observe it, abstract it, deconstruct it… Language too, falls between intimacy and anonymity. It is erotic for me. Since language begins in the body ("Language is a skin"-Roland Barthes), it can be considered another appendage.
RM: Of course, the quotes in the text will give us some answer to this question, but you might say more about this: what authors, or artists, musicians, or workers in any field of creative endeavor, do you feel most kinship? Whose works have stayed most relevant to you as a poet and thinker? and why? Some may be quoted in your work, some not! Please feel free answer whatever aspect of this question that your intuitions bring to mind.
EKB: Immersed in visual art, I thought I was going to be an artist like my parents and my brother until a teacher introduced poetry to a class of 13 year olds. My first loves were Edna St Vincent Millay, Sylvia Plath, Pablo Neruda, Keats, fiction writers Kobo Abe, Ionesco and Dostoyevsky. A Sarah Lawrence poetry upbringing brought me fresh obsessions: Hart Crane, late and mid-career Theodore Roethke, Marianne Moore, Emily Dickinson, John Berryman, Wallace Stevens, too many contemporary poets to mention… Dickinson for formal surprise, Crane and Hopkins for music; Roethke and Moore for fresh approach/interchange within a topic; Berryman for line break and diction, the perfected mundane, Steven's physical philosophy, "pheasant disappearing in the brush"…
Dada artist Hannah Hoch turned me upside down with strange joy. I paint and make collage art and believe much of my writing is a collage-based endeavor, especially my early work that always began in fevered fragments (with quotes and torn-out images) kept in notebooks… so it comes to no surprise that I also love Robert Rauschenberg, Joseph Cornell and local box artist/poet Gordon Wagner. At different stages, I became aware of artists like Kandinsky, Van Doesburg, Olga Razanova, Malevich and Kurt Schwitters who wrote sound and experimental poetry and collaborated with avant-garde poets. Paul Klee wrote that he had to decide whether to be a poet or an artist.
Peter Blake was a family friend (we lived in London at the time) and a fabulous British painter and collage artist whose work had a darkly whimsical, hallucinatory quality. His then wife Jan Haworth Blake was also amazing…she created flowers with human faces, the sewn life-like boxer on the front of the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, a cover they co-created.
Artists Ed Ruscha, John Baldessari, Billy Al Bengston (had a crush on mom), Ed Moses, Vito Acconci, and Jack Goldstein (a very close family friend), Judy Chicago, Barbara Kruger, and Joseph Beuys were all part of the art fodder the family consumed. Some of them were either father's (or his best friend Rico LeBrun) students or attended his school, The Jepson Art Institute, or the Chouinard Art Institute (as did Robert Irwin & others), where dad was head of the drawing department. The family attended many art openings and performances. I remember Chris Burden laying in the street covered in a tarp. Being the only "child" in the audience, I was an excited, yet uneasy participant. My genesis was the momentous inexorable. For some reason I understood the unspoken language, the subtext of contemporary art. Without expressing this until after high school and AP English, I knew I had obtained something that enabled me to conceptualize, and without realizing it, I became a Cartesian observer certain perception was already embedded between the thing observed and the observer.
Also, I fell in love with women artists Sophie Calle, Jenny Holzer, Cindy Sherman, Lola Alvarez Bravo, Atsuko Tanaka, Louise Bourgios, Eva Hesse, Miranda July and especially Ann Hamilton. Tony Oursler's installations and videos and Boyd Webb's giant wall-size installations have greatly influenced my work.
My very early bible, a book now out of print: The Discontinuous Universe: Essays in Contemporary Consciousness. And music? I love a wild variety of music and play Motown or sometimes play Brian Eno or classical when I am writing. Oh, and, for another visual discourse, I love Gaston Bachelard, William Gass, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Susan Sontag, Wittgenstein, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jean-Luc Godard, Ingmar Bergman, Jean Cocteau, Maya Deren, Bill Viola, Paolo Sorrentino, Wes Anderson…
RM: Would you tell me a bit about yourself? Anything you are willing to share that might not be in your short bio that is published in the book? Anything that might have interesting, tangential relation to the book?, or anything that doesn't!
EKB: I was a preschool teacher for many years and loved it. I'm an occasional painter. I'm an unconventional gourmet cook! I was a private chef and caregiver for 5 years. I collect masks. I own original works by Ann Hamilton, Sophie Calle, and others…I love Japanese prints, often dreamt I was a Geisha in childhood. I am crazy about astrophysics & deep space & deep sea biology… in another life, I'd like to conduct brain research! UK poet and performer S J Fowler (editor of 3AM) is working with a variety of people in and around Neuroscience… Brain mapping and more…I'm pleasantly jealous and excited to see more of his findings.
When I was a pre-teen I led a group of kids around the neighborhood, breaking into backyards and houses, just to see what was there. In high school Mother and I attended Waiting For Godot featuring actor, dear friend Bud Cort (Harold & Maude). I shouted his name so he would know we were there. The only other time I did that I was seven: As Elvis glided past the Palm Springs corner in his white Cadillac convertible, I screamed his name. He stopped and turned to say hi. My dress was the color of a blue exhale.
RM: You selected the artist whose work we've used in the cover design for this text. And during our conversations about her work, you chose this particular image from her work for the cover design for this book. Would you say a little about your relationship with Ann Hamilton, and why you wanted her work on your cover? And would you speak to the image you selected, and if / how the cover reflects your desires?
EKB: I was in the MOMA bookstore in NYC and discovered a poster of a woman in a black dress in a black background with a tumbleweed for a head—It was a poster from Ann Hamilton's stunning "body object series #5 sagebrush." After researching her work as an installation artist and her relationships to poets and poetry text, corpus of books as objects, the animated relationship between body figure and object, videos, weavings, and sound animations, etc…I found what I felt was a real connection between my interest in art and poetry, "Sound, voice, touch motion, extension and moral recognition…The figure made by practices of making themselves." (Susan Stewart, Poetry and the Fate of the Senses) I now found my new favorite artist and I wanted that poster image for the cover of Masque.
By pure happenstance (my son calls it synchronicity) I called friends Angie Estes and Kathy Fagan to chat. When they asked what book cover I was going to use for Masque, I flew into my story of this fabulous artist and her image, and that I wrote the gallery to see how I could find her. Hearty laughter came through the phone: "Elena!! We know her and she teaches here!" I couldn't believe it and instantly wrote my woo letter… the image was already used for a Susan Stewart essay book, but I could have another: flectere an Iris print marking the 1999 Venice Biennale installation myein. It's beautiful and haunting.
Then, as AVK ARTS (my namesake/godmother's non-profit foundation) Executive Director, offering funding for UCLA's CAP Artists in Residency Program created by the brilliant Kristy Edmunds, I found another Ann connection … I casually mentioned, at the end of our meeting, that I was in love with artist Ann Hamilton, and again, my words were greeted with some cheerful laughter. Kristy had just curated a show at the Park Avenue Armory in NYC. Ann Hamilton's show "the event of a thread," involved a massively large-scale installation and combined, in their words, "the ephemeral presence of time with the material tactility for which she is best known." It was our first time meeting in person. It was like meeting Einstein or the Beatles!
Ann graciously offered another image for my new book Squander. There were many options, but Rusty and I wanted to find something that didn't have too direct a referent. Reviewing the video stills and other images, I found privation and excesses, 1989, mixed media installation. Courtesy Ann Hamilton Studio.
The floor image is a large room-sized field of pennies set into a skin of honey and Ann is at the end of the room wringing her hands in a hat full of honey. The actual installation also included two handmade mortar and pestle "grinders", one of them grinding teeth, the other grinding pennies… the contrast of pulverizing sounds of the grinders and "the background to the lathering movement and sloshing sound of hands in honey…" Three sheep crowd a window's view. I knew (body and mind) that was it, here, through language "Where the installation juxtaposed the animal economy of honey to the human economy of money…" Ann Hamilton
There's an overlap cognizance, "here into presence, there into absence," (Heidegger) and a fresh lexicon of interrupted narrative and spatial action. So many of her works, through an animated relationship between language, object and figure, recognize that obsessive/repetitive, generative event.
When you open her website Annhamiltonstudio.com:
Cloth is the body's first architecture; it protects, conceals and reveals; it carries a body's weight, swaddles at birth, covers in sleep and in death. A patterned cloth symbolizes state or organization; a red cross stitched onto a white field is the universal sign of aid. A white cloth can be a ghost, a monster or a truce. John Constable described the sky in his paintings as a 'white sheet drawn behind the objects.' When we speak of its qualities, we speak of a cloth's hand: we know it through touch. Cloth is the hand that is always touching. Its felt experience is evoked and described by the other hand that we always inhabit, that of language. -Ann Hamilton
The last essay in my book Voyeur Hour: Meditations on Poetry, Art and Desire is about Ann Hamilton, tentatively entitled "Surrogate of the Ventriloquist's Vent"
If "blue is the color of the mind in borrow of the body," (William Gass) then Hamilton's mind borrows the action of the audience-body for a black and white beginning one only imagines in language conjugation… I can't get enough of her work. Inspired, I shall vowel may way forward…

FC Barcelona player Lionel Messi has polished off his record year with his 91st and final goal of 2012 in Barcelona's 3-1 win at Valladolid on Saturday, December 22, 2012.
He is confirmed to have scored his 91st goals of the year with 79 goals for Barcelona: 59 in the Spanish league, 13 in the Champions League, five in the Copa Del Rey and two in the Spanish Super Cup.
He had 12 for Argentina; five in World Cup qualifiers and seven in friendly matches.
Messi scored his 91st goal in the 59th minute by dribbling between a defender's legs before making it 2-0 after Xavi Hernandez had opened the scoring two minutes before halftime, in a victory the team dedicated to their ailing coach Tito Villanova.
Messi, called the wizard of football by fans, broke German great Gerd Mueller's 40-year-old record of 85 goals in one year earlier this month.

Get Better Sound Trailer (2008)
01 January 2008 Factual, Music
While traveling extensively around North America as an audio distributor and as an audio consultant, Jim Smith became increasingly discouraged. Although he visited hundreds of audiophiles, some with very advanced systems, he was amazed and dismayed to discover that not one system he heard was performing anywhere near its potential! When a system underperforms, it's a huge waste of the owner's resources. The real benefits of enjoying the system are diminished - if not totally lost. These effects are not subtle: in fact, when confronted with the difference, audiophiles were astonished at what they were missing.

(Adds detail, analyst quote)
* BOK keeps rates at 1.25 pct (Reuters poll 1.25 pct)
* Central bank wary over U.S. Treasury report, North Korea
* Pyongyang tells reporters to prepare for "big, important" event
* Economic forecast revisions due later
By Christine Kim and Cynthia Kim
SEOUL, April 13 (Reuters) - South Korea's central bank kept interest rates unchanged for a 10th straight month on Thursday, wary of geopolitical risks around North Korea and ahead of a much-anticipated U.S. Treasury report on foreign currency policy.
The Bank of Korea's monetary policy committee held its base rate steady at 1.25 percent, a media official said without elaborating. Governor Lee Ju-yeol is due to hold a news conference from 11:20 a.m. (0220 GMT).
All 21 analysts surveyed in a Reuters poll before the decision forecast the Bank of Korea would leave the base rate unchanged on Thursday.
A majority of analysts see the central bank on hold for the rest of the year and some see tightening beginning next year.
The central bank will release quarterly revisions to its economic forecasts later in the day.
"We'll have to see what the reasoning was behind the rate decision and whether Lee's comments change from his previous remarks but at this stage I don't think the BOK's rate stance will change," said Choi Un-sun, a fixed-income analyst at Cape Investment & Securities. Choi also sees the BOK standing pat until year-end.
Markets shrugged off the interest rate announcement, with the won and stocks up slightly and futures on three-year treasury bonds rising 0.09 points to trade at 109.49.
Market players were keeping a close eye on movements in North Korea, where visiting foreign journalists were gathered in Pyongyang for "a big and important event" early on Thursday.
Analysts have said any revisions to the BOK's forecasts were likely to be minimal, although considering recent positive indicators such as exports and inflation, the BOK could upgrade its growth outlook.
The BOK and the finance ministry are awaiting the April 13 release of a semi-annual U.S. Treasury report on the currency policies of its major trading partners, which includes South Korea.
Policymakers have fretted over whether South Korea will be named as a currency manipulator in the report although on balance they are confident it is unlikely.
Consumer price growth in South Korea picked up at the fastest pace in nearly five years in March as the prices of fresh food and services rose, signalling a rebound in domestic demand after months of weakening consumer sentiment amid a corruption scandal that led to the ouster of President Park Geun-hye.
Rising household debt also remains an issue for the central bank, as previous interest rate cuts by the Bank of Korea have been identified as a key reason behind feverish borrowing.
The BOK did not hold a rate-setting meeting in March as it has reduced the number of such meetings starting this year to eight from 12. (Additional reporting by Dahee Kim; Editing by Eric Meijer)

Jocelyn Wildenstein Net Worth
Jocelyn Wildenstein Net Worth: Jocelyn Wildenstein is a New York socialite who has a net worth of $500 million dollars. Born August 5, 1940 in Lausanne, Switzerland, she is known for her extensive facial surgeries and an extravagant lifestyle consisting of $60,000/year phone bills and annual food and wine costs in excess of $545,000. The disfiguration which has emerged from the series of surgeries, causing Jocelyn to resemble a feline, earned her the nickname Catwoman. Jocelyn married billionaire French businessman Alec Wildenstein when they were both in the their 30s and they later divorced in 1999. Jocelyn claims that Alec loved big cats and that she had the multiple surgeries to please him—that she got exactly what she wanted out of the surgeries and that she felt beautiful when she looked into the mirror. The couple's divorce was highly publicized and was not amicable, as Jocelyn walked in on her husband and a 19-year-old model in her bedroom at the Wildenstein's New York home and he threatened her with a gun. Alec Wildenstein was jailed over the incident. During the divorce proceedings, the judge stipulated that Jocelyn was not to use any alimony payments for further cosmetic surgery. Jocelyn was reportedly awarded $2.5 billion in the divorce settlement as well as $100 million each year for 13 years thereafter.

Real annual return of Estonian pension funds -2.2% over past decade ({{commentsTotal}})
From 2005-2015, the real annual return of Estonian pension funds was -2.2 percent, which is the lowest indicator among OECD countries, results of a fresh survey show.
The nominal 10-year geometric average annual return totaled 1 percent.
In 2014 the average real annual return of Estonian pensions funds was 4.7 percent, which placed Estonia seventh from the back among the 34 member states of the OECD; that year the OECD's average real annual return totaled 6.8 percent.
In comparison, the real annual return of Latvian pension funds during the same 10-year period was -0.7 percent and nominal return 3 percent. Lithuania's indicators were not included in the report.

I just read in the ST Louis Post Dispatch that a researcher there received a grant(albeit it small, about 40,000) to research the effect of a natural herb called Bitter Melon on Head/Neck cancers. Wondering if anyone has heard of this before. Try googling it for information. I thought some of you out there might be interested. It can't hurt, right? I think GNC carries it if you want to try it.

now that treatment is done. But I'd still check with my Dr. and verify that it would be ok to take, or if you should wait till the thyroid issue is cleared up.

Iraqi Corruption Starts at the Top
Corruption is so widespread in Iraq that it is treated as part of every day life. People pay bribes for almost everything including passport applications, jobs and food rations. Both the U.S. and Iraqi inspectors general say the corruption starts on top.
RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
It's MORNING EDITION from NPR News. I'm Renee Montagne.
STEVE INSKEEP, host:
And I'm Steve Inskeep. Good morning.
Violence may be the most obvious problem in Iraq, but there's another. And, according to one American official, it's a major obstacle to Iraq's reconstruction. The problem is corruption. Iraqis pay bribes for passport applications, jobs, and even food. What makes it especially pervasive is that the corruption starts at the top.
NPR's Jamie Tarabay reports from Baghdad.
JAMIE TARABAY: At this gas station in Baghdad, customers stand in line for hours, but it's not first-come, first-serve. It's one of Iraq's greatest ironies. This country sits on the second largest proven oil reserves in the world, and people not only have to queue for gasoline, they pay bribes to skip ahead. They pay traffic police to dodge fines for broken taillights, and on days when only cars with license plates ending in odd numbers are allowed to drive, those with even numbers pay just to be on the street.
Mr. ABDULLAH MAHMOUD(ph) (Former Government Employee): (Through translator) Bribery is a disease.
TARABAY: Abdullah Mahmoud is a retired government employee. He says the corruption is new, a product of the post-war chaos. And only stability up top can bring corruption under control.
Mr. MAHMOUD: (Through translator) It can only end with a better security system; better supervision. People who step forward because of their conscious, people who consider this is a crime against other citizens.
TARABAY: Mahmoud says it's practically a joke among Iraqis. Newspapers regularly run cartoons depicting the typical Iraqi man as poor, with dirty, worn clothes, and the government as a fat man in a suit and sunglasses. Money spills from the fat man's pockets, while the poor Iraqi is left with nothing in his hands but empty promises.
Stuart Bowen is a special inspector general for Iraq's reconstruction. He's here to audit and investigate shoddy workmanship and possible fraud among U.S. contractors. But he says there are problems with the Iraqis as well.
Mr. STUART BOWEN (Special Investigator General): Corruption is endemic, that's what I've heard Iraqi officials describe it to me. And the IGs have, you know, hundreds and hundreds of reports documenting concerns about corruption.
TARABAY: One of the biggest cases of corruption involves Iraq's oil ministry, which the Committee for Public Integrity estimates has amounted to a loss of some $4 billion. Smuggling is one of the main problems. Authorities have given up on maintaining Iraq's northern oil pipeline to Turkey because it's been blown up so many times by saboteurs. So now, oil exports from the north are shipped out by tanker trucks, and that's where the smuggling occurs.
Again, Stuart Bowen.
Mr. BOWEN: You're depending on drivers who are going to carryout their mission, and who are going to take it and sell it for their own benefit. And indeed, the problem with smuggling is tied significantly to that issue.
TARABAY: Judge Radi Hamza Radi, the head of Iraq's Committee for Public Integrity, has told Bowen that of the 3,000 state-owned trucks shipping oil to the north, 2,000 are involved in smuggling. The committee has hundreds of investigations looking into the different Iraqi ministries, which Bowen says has caused controversy within the Iraqi government.
Mr. BOWEN: The point of controversy is the right, under Iraqi criminal law, to imprison a suspect during the course of the investigation.
TARABAY: The controversy doesn't end there. Now Judge Radi is himself the target of a corruption probe. Sheikh Sabat Zahid(ph) is the head of parliamentary commission into corruption. He recently held a news conference showing what he said were documents proving that Radi was defrauding the government.
Mr. SHEIKH SABAT ZAHID (Parliamentary Commission Member): (Through translator) There are accusations against Radi and the case has been brought before the judicial authorities, and we do not intervene in their business.
TARABAY: They have, however, asked for a travel ban, but Radi is either in Italy or Switzerland, and it's not clear when or if he'll return to Iraq.
Corruption is also stemming the flow of revenue into a country desperately short of funds. The billions already committed by the United States for reconstruction have all been spent or earmarked for ongoing projects. The burden is now on the Iraqis.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Specialized lenders that play an important role in low income communities have been pummeled by the recession and must look beyond their traditional sources of funding to stay healthy, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said on Wednesday.
Bernanke did not comment on the outlook for monetary policy or the economy in a speech at a conference on financial literacy.
Community development financial institutions operate in low-income communities and typically make loans for housing, business and schools. The organizations fill a valuable niche in supporting economic development in such communities, Bernanke said.
"The Federal Reserve recognizes that these financial flows are critically important for many low- and moderate-income communities," he said.
In the financial meltdown that began in August 2007 and the recession that officially hit four months later, such institutions have seen loan defaults rise and earnings slide, Bernanke said.
In addition to minimizing losses, community lenders may need to go to a wider range of sources for funding, he said.
One such step might be to become members of the Federal Home Loan Bank system, which provides funding to lenders to support homeownership with U.S. Treasury backing, Bernanke said.

Frigid weather or not, we took some trips around town this week and found a couple of gems out on the casual eating trail.
First, we headed over to Taqueria y Fruteria Los 3 Hermanos, 3206 West Ave., which we'd been hearing about for some time. This is not a fancy establishment, a little ways north of Basse Road, but the building has a history of housing some good taqueria/fruterias.
Los 3 Hermanos makes everything fresh, and we enjoyed a steak taquito topped with chopped onion and cilantro, served with fresh lime and a couple of bottles of red (kind of hot) and green (hotter) table salsas in clean, cool plastic bottles. The horchata (milky almond drink with sugar and cinnamon) was like having dessert in a glass; and we took it out to the car with us, cranked up the heater and enjoyed the horchata on the drive home.
The real treat here, though, was the platter of Mexican style enchiladas. Thin corn tortilla (white, not red) dipped in a thin red chile sauce, was wrapped snugly around some creamy white queso fresco. More queso on top, with a side garnish of fried potatoes and carrots, tasting like they'd been fried witha bit of chorizo, made it filling and delicious. It's what we'll go back for.
There are other tacos, tortas, tostadas, breakfast plates and so forth on the menu.
Wednesday was just a bit warmer, so we headed further afield to check out the new Big Lou's Burgers and BBQ. This restaurant is close to it's big-sister establishment not far away.
Big Lou's Pizza has a good reputation, so we had great expectations for the burger joint, which is at 2014 W.W. White Road. We weren't disappointed. Even the quarter-pound burger seemed to have a little extra heft, and the Cheddar cheese melted on top was the real thing. We asked for a small taste of the brisket and almost changed our burger order. It was tender, smoky and good, a little fatty, but I prefer that to dry. And, it had a good pink smoke line and lovely, dark exterior.
Onion rings aren't the traditional accompaniment to brisket, but this is exactly what I'll order when I go back. Crisp, lightly battered onion rings, made with fresh onion and served very hot are certainly not an everyday treat. But, when you do order them, this is just what you want. We love DeWese's Tip Top Cafe's onion rings, but as a police officer said on his way out of Big Lou's as we were coming in, "Those onion rings give Tip Top's a run for their money."

Sarah Hyland is a fan of the vintage look.
The 'Modern Family' actress thinks she was born in the wrong era because she's such a fan of old-fashioned glamour.
The 22-year-old beauty - who counts the timeless looks of Katharine Hepburn and Audrey Hepburn as her style inspiration - said: ''I really do like the vintage look. I sometimes think I was born in the wrong generation.''
Sarah's style has changed over the years but says she has always liked to express herself through her fashion choices.
She told Teen Prom magazine: ''I've always expressed myself through my style, from when I was a child playing dress up to now.''
Sarah also revealed that while she has her own personal style, she does value the opinion of her boyfriend Matt Prokop and will listen to his style advice.
She said: ''His opinion means a lot to me. If he says he likes it, then I'm like, 'Okay this is good.' ''

The Cloud of Unknowing is a book of contemplation which helps Christians to attain union with God through single-minded contemplation. The book serve as a guide for Christian spirituality and it cover important topics on contemplation, unknowing and union with God. The unknowing serve as a core element of the method of contemplation itself, which is supposed to unify man with God. The Cloud of Unknowing can guide a Christian to understand the Yoga Sutras with respect to mystical union as the ultimate, mystical union as the highest good and the process of union.
The cloud considers unification of mystical union as the ultimate basis of all that exist. In the cloud God serve as the ultimate basis of all that exist. By understanding this basis, it helps understand the concept of Brahman as the ultimate reality from which everything comes from and which all is ultimately composed in the yoga sutras. The cloud of unknowing stresses the otherness of God and the division between God and man and this helps understand
Mystical union is the best and happiest state of affairs taught in the Cloud and contemplation serves as the best means to ensuring that one acts in such a way, therefore contemplation is the source of highest good because of the way it aligns with one's action towards others with the will of God, not simply because it helps one to become unified with God. In yoga sutras mystical is the ultimate goodness, once it is attained there are no barriers to the union. It is the ultimate happiness because one has no thoughts, desires, or memories at all and hence one can neither be unhappy in desiring that which one does not have, or in fearing to lose that which one does not have.
The cloud of unknowing advocates utterance of the word once in full contemplation as a means of inducing God to assist the mystic in attaining his union and this correlate with the repetition of mantra in yoga sutras. Yoga sutras advocate repetition of the word as a means of...

Sikorsky names LiquidPiston winner of 7th Entrepreneurial Challenge
2 December 2016
Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company, named LiquidPiston, developer of engines based on its High Efficiency Hybrid Cycle (HEHC) (earlier post), as the winner of the 7th Entrepreneurial Challenge. The Entrepreneurial Challenge, driven by Sikorsky Innovations, the technology development organization of Sikorsky, is designed to accelerate innovators and disruptive technology concepts with applications for the vertical flight market.
LiquidPiston specializes in development of compact, powerful, quiet, efficient, low-vibration, scalable, multi-fuel capable rotary combustion engines, based on the HEHC. LiquidPiston received a $25,000 cash prize along with an opportunity to explore opportunities for LiquidPiston's technology with the Sikorsky product line.
HEHC is an improved thermodynamic cycle optimized for fuel efficiency that combines features of four existing cycles: high compression ratio (Diesel); constant volume (isochoric) combustion (Otto); over-expansion to atmospheric pressure (Atkinson); and internal cooling with air or water (Rankine).
The cycle has a theoretical efficiency of 75% using air-standard assumptions and first-law analysis. The rotary engine architecture shows a potential indicated efficiency of 60% and brake efficiency of >50%. As the engine does not have poppet valves and the gas is fully expanded before the exhaust stroke starts, the engine also has potential to be quiet.

The Notre jacket brings together in a single garment the desire to cross the line on the competition slopes and the elegance of an old-school gentleman. The tailored look leaves out none of Moncler's signature hi-tech details in this piece designed for the slopes but equally at home in the city.

(This story has been updated to include comments from Delta Airlines.)
It became the "not so friendly skies" Saturday night when conservative pundit Ann Coulter boarded a Delta flight and the seat she had pre-booked was given to another passenger.
"Hey @Delta," she tweeted. "You mind telling me why it was an 'emergency' to move someone else into the seat I had carefully chosen in advance and booked?"
And then Coulter persisted by tweeting a photo of the woman even though she was not to blame for the seat reassignment.

A Delta spokesman said Sunday, "Her new seat was in the same row, just not the exact seat she had selected," adding that she was moved from an aisle seat to a window seat in the same exit row.
"We are aware of the customer's comment, and reaching out directly to her to address the complaint," the spokesman said.
In addition, the airline released a critical tweet to Coulter saying "your insults about our other customers and employees are unacceptable and unnecessary."
The six-foot-tall Coulter had booked an aisle seat for the extra legroom during the flight from New York to Palm Beach, Florida.

But before all of that info came out, many on social media didn't appreciate Coulter's 'tude one bit… and the tweets began to fly.
"Delta f—d up so let me shame an innocent woman & her family – Ann Coulter," tweeted @ajrodz92
Also, the woman paid for the ticket, just like Ann did, she's a victim too, for being put in this situation.

SERIOUSLY? So you stood, took a picture, and blasted it — and her — all over the net. Who's the asshole here, Ann?

You misundstand. She was on the flight – just not in the specific seat she requested. You can request a sp. seat, but it's not guaranteed.

Actually she posted the woman was moved to her seat for an emergency. Ann didn't get knocked off the flight, and instead chose to harrass

The rude person in that photo seems to be the one behind the camera. https://t.co/GeyVoXH3Cc

@AnnCoulter, you should apologize to the woman you have slandered. She didn't take "your" "extra" seat. She was given "a" seat. Stop it.

United Way donors had a chance Thursday to see firsthand how their contributions are improving lives in the Franklin County area.
About 35 people attended an agency tour, the first of two to be hosted by the United Way this year.
"It was amazing — very inspiring," said Kim Strubberg, United Way executive director.
Strubberg said participants met at United Bank of Union for pastries and coffee and then boarded buses which transported them to three agencies — Empac Group in Sullivan, Union Food Pantry and Children's Advocacy Center, also in Union.
Empac provides employment opportunities for residents with disabilities.
The Union Food Pantry serves as an emergency source of food for families and individuals living within the Union School District boundaries.
Children's Advocacy Center of East Central Missouri provides advocacy and interviewing services to children who are possible victims of criminal child abuse.
Transportation was provided by OATS and Franklin County Transportation Council, both of which are United Way member agencies.
"The tour really highlights the power of your donation," said Strubberg. "Seeing the different ways each agency puts United Way funds to use is so impressive."
The group included representatives of the United Way's Top 30 corporate donors and new businesses planning to hold United Way campaigns this year, as well as board members and agency representatives.
"We had several people there with manufacturing backgrounds and I think they found the visits really informational," said Sandy Langenberg, United Way program coordinator. "To see the innovative things these agencies are doing was really inspiring."
A second agency tour will be offered Sept. 11 with stops at Exceptional Equestrians in Washington, Gateway Education & Therapy and Franklin County CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates), both in Union.
Exceptional Equestrians is a volunteer-based therapeutic horsemanship program which provides therapy and recreation for people with disabilities.
Gateway Education & Therapy provides services for children with special needs, including speech/language therapy, tutoring, behavior therapy and life skills classes.
CASA, a new United Way agency, advocates for the best interest of children of abuse and neglect who are under the protection of the Franklin County Juvenile Court.
The 2014 United Way drive will kick off in early September. This year's goal will be announced at the kickoff breakfast July 31.
