2007-06-17 - C-27J USAF orderC-27J wins US order
Neuer Transporter für US Army aus Italien<br /> Finmeccanica has won an important new order in the US through Alenia North America (an Alenia Aeronautica subsidiary), in partnership with L-3 and Boeing.
The C-27J - designed, developed and manufactured by Alenia Aeronautica - has been selected by the US Army and Air Force as the new tactical transport aircraft for the Joint Cargo Aircraft (JCA) programme. The C-27J Team was awarded an initial contract estimated at USD 2.04 billion for the supply of 78 C- 27J tactical transport aircraft. The US Armed Forces' plan is to purchase 145 aircraft (75 for the Army and 70 for the Air Force), rising to a total of 207 units over the next ten years, worth an estimated USD 6 billion.
The C-27J - supplied in the US by the C-27J team, headed by L-3 Integrated Systems, with Alenia North America, Boeing Integrated Defense Systems and Global Military Aircraft Systems (GMAS, a company owned 51% by Alenia Aeronautica and 49% by L-3) - was selected over the EADS-CASA C295 as it is the only aircraft in its category that meets the US operational requirements for tactical transport. The JCA is a joint programme run by the US Army and Air Force for a tactical transport aircraft. As a high-performance multi-purpose aircraft with capabilities of independent operation, effectiveness and operating efficiency, the C-27J equipped with Rolls Royce AE2100 engines - is the ideal solution to this requirement.

Capriccio Ristorante - Pembroke Pines Ratings and Reviews
The food is delicious. Any veal dish is excellent. Superior service. The house Chianti and Pinot Noir was excellent. Great live piano. An attentive member of the wait staff noticed we exchanged anniversary gifts. A desert was brought and the kitchen wrote Happy Anniversary in chocolate! A nice touch!
Always has been a family favorite local restaurant.
Generally very good food prepared well but was slightly disappointed with veal buffalina on this visit.
Service is always attentive and the live music is always fun and well done.
Definitely a top neighborhood spot.
Happy place - fantastic food
We visited for the first time and felt transported by the fun music and roving violinist .
Full bar and fun cocktails with yummy appetizer and generous main dish servings
We tried traditional veal dishes and stuffed artichoke
Friendly attentive service and visits by the lovely co owner Karen to ensure all going well.
We'll be sure to return :)
This was our first time dining here. The restaurant went beyond our expectations! It felt like just in Italy! The veal with shrimp in a garlic and wine sauce was out of this world. Also the pasticcio lasagna was superb. The wine selection is ample and reasonably priced with plenty of options from different Italian regions and California's as well. The ambiance is great; cozy and nicely decorated. Staff went out of their way to pamper us. Excellent service and cuisine! A must place to visit. I'll become a regular now that I found this gem in town!
We had reservations but they sat us in the bar at a table that looked like they just squeezed it in. The server must not have known because he did not show up with menus for almost 10 minutes. The people sitting next to us left just as their food came. They had been waiting close to an hour. Our food came out in 20 minutes. It was delicious. I had the seafood risotto and she had the chicken parm. This was the first time we had bad service in about a dozen visits, but we over heard one of the bus boys saying something about a party of seventy that our waiter was taking care of. The food is so good that we will be back to dine there again.
Never disappointed at this restaurant! The service is friendly and enthusiastic to help and make a recommendation the food taste like what Italian food should taste like and it's a very rare find. Definitely great place for a authentic cuisine that will always satisfy
Had not been here in close to fifteen years. The food was wonderful. Nice size portions as well.
Piano music was a bit loud so it was very difficult to socialize with those at the table. Then when the music stopped patrons at all the tables seemed to be yelling at each other as if the loud music was still on.
Other than that we would look forward to going back.
This place has a very inviting atmosphere. You feel like You are in a place in Italy. The service was wonderful. The live music (piano and violin) were wonderful to listen to but at times quite noisy. Overall we had a wonderful time and the food was excellent. Also, try the fiocchi de pera. It is the best and do not see anywhere.
This place is such a great find! My friend came into town and his girlfriend had never had authentic Italian, so I looked up places near us and picked this place. I had the veal with brandy cream sauce with a side of pasta and a salad. The dressing on the salad was amazing and the veggies were very crisp, fresh and tasty. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the veal was so tender and flavorful. The sauce was rich and a perfect compliment to the veal. The staff was very helpful and attentive. It is a bit pricy, but it is worth it! The food is great and the atmosphere is very quaint and romantic.

DETROIT -- Detroit Lions quarterback Charlie Batch broke a bone in his right knee during practice and probably will be sidelined for about three months.
Batch's foot got caught in the turf during noncontact drills Monday and he crumpled to the ground. Tests showed he broke his tibial plateau, has a fracture displacement, and has slight damage to his posterior cruciate ligament.
''There was no pressure on him. He wasn't trying to avoid anybody at all,'' Lions spokesman Matt Barnhart said Tuesday.
Batch and his agent asked for the test results to be sent to Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Ala., for a second opinion, Barnhart said.
If the world-renowned orthopedic surgeon agrees with Lions doctors, Batch will have arthroscopic surgery in about a week.
Batch could probably resume workouts in two months, but wouldn't be able to play for about three months, team doctors said.
The Lions' first preseason game is Aug. 4 against visiting New England, and they begin the regular season Sept. 3 in New Orleans.
''The diagnosis we've received would likely put Charlie out of action through training camp and preseason,'' Lions head coach Bobby Ross said. ''Injuries happen in the game of football, and we've got to move on. We have to get through the arthroscopic procedure and see what is found once they look inside the knee.
''This is something we're going to have to deal with, and we will. Charlie will get well and we'll get him back. What we may do in the short-term, though, is explore the possibility of bringing in another quarterback.''
Mike Tomczak, brought in March 3 to back up Batch, will become the Lions' No. 1 quarterback for now, Barnhart said.

Ars Technica predicts the future of Windows
Subject: General Tech | April 7, 2008 - 11:37 AM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Ars Technica weighs in on what they think modular design will mean for Windows users in the future. Windows 7 is likely to be released as modules, according to several stories from Microsoft and other tech sites. As an accountant, the modular sales model would probably make a lot of sense, as you could probably sell a very basic package to a consumer who would never even consider paying $150 for an OS. As a user who wants everything may end up having to pay a lot more than they expected, and corporate IT structures would have a lot of decisions to make when they look at licensing. Is it worth paying for the Previous Version feature on 1000 desktops, or to force users to create the data from scratch?
If you thought a half dozen versions of Windows was bad ...
"With both Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, we can see the first few steps in this modular direction, albeit in
different ways. Windows Server 2008 has as one of its major features the idea of "roles". Rather than installing
everything and the kitchen sink, with 2008, you install the base OS and then choose one or more roles, such as Active
Directory domain controller, Web Server, or Print Server, and the software components to support those tasks are
installed accordingly.
This "roles" tack has resulted in the now infamous multiplicity of versions of Windows Vista. If you want Media Center,
you need to get Home Premium; if you want hard drive encryption, you need to get Enterprise; if you want Aero Glass, you
mustn't get Home Basic; if you want everything, you have go get Ultimate."

Threats to Singed with this build
|get rod of ages into an early thorn mail and he can't dmg you.
Im gil9055 an etw league player. I picked singed up a while ago and I've been having a lot of success with him due to the lack of knock ledge of enemies to play against him. Proxying is one of the hardest and skill requiring things in league. This will improve your map awareness and your basic knowledge of the enemy jungler.
How to proxy
You will want to walk into the enemy jungle at 1:15. If the enemies chase u just go ahead and waste their time. If things get hairy pop ghost and get out of there. Sometimes the enemy jungle chases you for so long that he takes so much poison dmg so that he can't continue his clear. In an optimal case the enemies won't do anything. In that case you can just proxy 3 waves between tier 1 and tier 2 tower and let yourself get executed afterwards so that the enemy jungler can't first blood you. After ur back u get back to lane and either push it out to proxy again or u might have a big enough advantage by backing with 350 more gold than him so that you can 1v1 him on lane.
You can also try ignite or smite on top lane singed. Ignite is really good if u want to get a cheesy first blood. For that I would recommend going death fire touch in the masteries. Smite is good for counterjungling and you get a 150 hp heal every 60 sec which is pretty nice as well. You can even farm enemy drugs/gromp in between waves coming in while proxying.

Creating Online Businesses
The dot-com boom ended years ago, but technology and the Internet forever changed the way people do business. Today, for little to no money, anyone can start a company from the comfort of home. Like any business, online ventures have unique challenges. But, if you're searching for a low-overhead, low-maintenance endeavor, the World Wide Web might be the perfect place for you. Here are a few reasons thousands of people start online businesses every day.
1. Sell practically anything online.
From food, used clothes and antique knickknacks, to music, e-books,accounting services and software, online businesses are as varied as the people who surf the Internet.
2. Automation can set you free.
Depending on the product or service a business offers, it's possible to operate profi tably and automatically. Drop-ship services enable online entrepreneurs to sell a product without investing a dime in manufacturing or inventory and withoutlifting a finger to produce, package or ship it. Automation means that while you're sleeping, enjoying your vacation or holding down a day job, your business can operate 24/7.
3. Costs can be kept to a minimum.
Web design and e-commerce services make it easy for online-business owners to set up shop. If you choose to tap into existing systems such as eBay, the setup and maintenance time are also minimal.
Although you could easily spend a lot of money for a sophisticated site, ...

Lady Gaga 'floored' over Madonna's cover of Born This Way
Lady Gaga was stunned when she discovered Madonna had covered her hit song Born This Way on tour after critics noted the similarities between the tune and the veteran pop star's track Express Yourself. The eccentric 27 year old came under fire in 2011, when so-called music experts insisted her number one single sounded just like the Queen of Pop's 1989 hit.
Then, during a show on her MDNA tour in Israel in 2012, Madonna added stirred up the story by covering Born This Way onstage without commenting on whether the impromptu performance was a tribute to Gaga or a jab at her.
The Paparazzi hitmaker still isn't clear what Madonna's intention was – and she tells Britain's Attitude magazine that she doesn't really care.
Gaga admits, "I have to be really honest, I was completely kind of floored that Madonna was singing my song on her stage! I mean, Madonna's… she's Madonna. I looked up to her for a long time. I'm not quite sure what her intention was – to do that in the show, but I don't really care.
"All it meant to me was that Madonna Ciccone was singing my song on her stage… and, as a punk rocker from New York, I've basically been hoping that I would become so good that one day I would p**s off Madonna!"

Day Trips from Rome
Rome is the perfect base from which to explore the central Italian countryside and surrounding hill towns. Join me for a full day adventure while we visit craftspeople, hill towns, farms and food artisans – while eating and drinking our way through the Italian countryside.
We'll start early, in Rome, where a car and driver will pick us up. Then we'll head out of town, and onto the Autostrada, to begin our day.
My tours are completely private so that we can focus on things that really interest you. I am currently offering the following day trips outside of Rome, but can easily develop others to suit your taste and schedule. Some of my current tours include:
Day trip to Deruta
Deruta is home to one of the most loved of Italian crafts: hand painted ceramics. I love these ceramics so much, I even wrote a book about them. On this day trip I'll share my love and passion for this age old craft. Our day will include a visit to the newly restored museum and original 16th century kilns. Then we will get to the real reason you signed up for this tour: shopping. We will get behind the scenes tours at a half dozen workshops were artisans form and glaze tableware. You'll be free to just window shop, or (and this is where the fun is) buy or custom order beautiful, hand painted pieces. (don't worry, they ship). Then we will head to a road side truck stop, where we'll enjoy a delicious lunch of Umbrian specialities.
Olive Oil Day in Lazio
Olive oil is one of the great joys of Italian cooking. It is a staple of the mediterranean diet and the olive oil from the Sabine Hills north of Rome is known as some of the best in the world. On this Day Trip you will immerse yourselves in everything from growing, picking and processing olive oil to (of course) tasting different varieties. Along the way we will enjoy a leisurely lunch featuring local specialties paired with olive oil. The tour is available all year long, although the nature of the day changes according to the season. Pressing usually takes place October, November and December.
Orvieto Wine and Cheese Day
Orvieto is one of the most beautiful medieval cities in central Italy. The magnificent Cathedral stands guard over the ancient town and the surrounding Tiber Valley. We will make the hour and a half drive up to Orvieto, first stopping at an organic goat cheese farm. We will then visit one of the most famous wineries in Italy, for a tasting of the white wine this area is known for. For lunch we will head into Orvieto, where we'll sample local truffle-topped dishes. Finally, after a walk through the town and visit to the Cathedral, we'll head back to Rome.
Truffle Hunting (and Eating!)
There is one way to guarantee that your truffles are as fresh as possible: hunt for them yourself. On this day long tour we will head to the heart of Umbria, to join professional hunters and their trusted dogs to search for black gold. Hopefully we will be lucky. But don't worry, the place we are visiting always has the freshest of truffles and we will not only enjoy a four course meal, but also have a cooking lesson to learn how to get the most out of these precious tubers.
You know you love porchetta. But how about a full day immersion in the best porchetta in the countryside south of Rome? After a stop for cappucino in the lake side hill town where the Popes summer, we'll visit a small butcher shop where what most people consider is the best porchetta in Italy is being made. We'll take our package of porchetta and head to a local fraschetta, where we'll sit down to enjoy our purchases with glasses of Frascati white wine. But this is only our appetizer. We will also be stopping by Nemi, where we will enjoy the view, as well as the local wild strawberries. We then head south, to Ariccia, for a full lunch of local specialities including: coppiette (pork jerky), mozzarella, cured vegetables, arrosticini and slow cooked beans with pig skin. A coffee at the oldest bar in town, and then we head back to Rome.
Italian Rustic Day Trip to Umbria with Domenico Minchilli
I wrote my last book, Italian Rustic, with my husband, Domenico Minchilli. Together we looked at central Italian building techniques and resources. Domenico specializes in both residential and hotel designs which renovate and bring historic buildings back to life. On this day long trip you will join Domenico to visit not only some of his finished projects in Umbria, but also stopping by some of the artisans and salvage yards on which Domenico relies to provide him with hand made vintage building materials. Stops will include a visit to an artisan terra cotta tile maker; a carpenter who recreates antique doors and windows; a salvage yard that specializes in ancient stone fireplaces. You will also visit several private homes that Domenico has restored.

Today is a few days before Christmas, and as I was dropping off some film for developing (yes, I still use film) at a small independent photo place I'd never visited before, I decided to stick around because they were packed and doing very brisk business selling cameras. I don't know why I do this, because I'm not shopping for a camera, but I get a kick out of seeing how staff try to sell models and brands. Well, this afternoon it was a horror show. Left and right, nice people were coming into this store to pick out a camera as a gift for a family member and the sales people gutted them, like grizzly bears feeding on a salmon run. (note: this would be an unfair characterization in a lot of places, even in New York, but it happens.)
The typical shopper for a camera this time of year isn't usually a photographer, it's someone with an eye to get a camera for someone else who possibly likes taking snapshots. I'm going to dispense some basic DSLR Christmas shopping tips for them now, though it makes me a bit of a hypocrite, because the point I'm trying to drive home is that it's a bad idea to listen too earnestly to anyone's advice when you're in a camera store at Christmas time. I'm not going to tell you what camera to buy your wife/husband/daughter/son. If you research before hand, collect opinions, weigh your options, know their needs, and set an affordable budget, you're following the best consumer tips already. But once you're inside a typical techy-gadgety store, you're being hunted, and a grizzly is going to swoop a big paw down on you faster then you can click 'quit.' You'll sputter some words about sensors and then the grizzly will be chewing on your head. Endless facts about this, that, and the other are like teeth that will chomp you up and get you feeling all mashed to bits until you're just right for digestion and ejection (the register and the exit).
1. There are really 5 tiers of DSLR camera: budget, amateur, advanced amateur, professional, and wealthy professional. Forget the last 2 tiers if you're buying a gift; you won't see the 4th for less than $2000 and the 5th for under $6000 anyway. People who can appreciate those cameras ask for them by name, and should be buying them for themselves. For the rest, there are all sorts of phrases to confuse you, like "entry-level, mid-range, top of the line, pro-sumer," which could apply to anything really, but if you just ask which ones are "budget" or "advanced amateur", you'll be swimming upstream a lot faster.
2. If you're not sure, always ask which models are current and which ones are discontinued. The price of a discontinued model should always be less than the current model, but some sneaky sales devil will try to appeal to your savoir faire and will try one of two things to get you to spend more money. First, they'll try to bundle the discontinued model with extra crap until the bundle for the discontinued camera costs more than the new model. "It's more value! Memory cards, filters, etc." These are lies (see no. 5 below). A discontinued camera is a pretty good deal, but avoid any value-added bundle on principle that the store creates the bundles to make more money. Ask them to distinguish between the brand name "kit" and their bundles (which they may also call "kits"). Next, they'll explain the older model has been discontinued for all sorts of reasons that make it less super-fantastic than the present model, which is an up-sale from the perfectly good camera to something that has more profit for them. "The new one has XYZ. You'll need that." No, you really don't. You just "want" it. Try not to be greedy when they appeal to your sense of value, because that is the one weakness they know how to exploit.
3. If it comes in a kit with a same brand lens, don't buy an additional lens that covers the same zoom range plus a bit more. You absolutely must hold onto your wallet if they goad you into a telephoto zoom that goes anywhere from 200mm to 300mm, especially if it overlaps with what you already have. Unless you know precisely what lens you want based on research, you're going to be smoked and eaten on a bagel if you start thinking about additional telephoto zoom lenses. Amateurs take absolutely the worst photos with long telephoto zooms, but for some reason (spelled p.r.o.f.i.t.), stores are absolutely loving any 17mm-200mm lens that costs over $300, preferably if the name "Pro-Master" is stamped on it. Here's why you need to avoid the temptation. First of all, the kit lens (if it's made by the same manufacturer as the camera) is probably the safest bet in the store for when you can't decide. Secondly, don't buy the camera in a camera+lens kit and then another lens that duplicates the kit lens' zoom range. You don't need a back-up lens. And if you get tempted by the replacement lens idea, stay on brand and buy just the camera alone (no kit lens). Finally, anything stamped Pro-Master or by the other in-store brands just scares me.
4. The one thing that helps average people take better pictures is a TTL bounce flash. The kind that sits in a hot-shoe on the camera, that you point at a wall or a ceiling so the illumiation gets more diffused. But average people are intimidated by the added size and handling. However, if you have an extra $300 to spend, buy a good flash before you buy another lens on a whim. You can get off-brand flashes, but for the life of your camera nothing will work better than if you stay on brand and get the model that is current for your camera.
5. Stay within your budget by buying less, not by going cheaper to pile on the extras. Unless it comes without them, you only need to get a memory card and batteries... okay, and maybe an extra lens cloth. But now is not the time to get a special case, protective UV filters, extra batteries, sensor cleaning squeegees, a remote, lens cleaning fluid, etc. Anyone to whom you give a camera will consider these things later, if they really want them, but more than likely they'll never use them if you buy them now. Protective filters are pretty much de rigeur at the check-out, because apparently we're all terribly likely to grind the lens to sand with paper towels or drop it on concrete. The store is appealing to your instinct for adding value and protecting your investment, but don't let anyone make that decision for you in the store. Reflect on it at home, in bed, or at breakfast the next day. Then reflect again, and then reflect some more. And if you still need that UV filter because your heart is set on it, keep in mind anything over $15 is overkill unless you're a professional (and then overkill is what you get paid for).
6. Store Warranties will suck your soul dry. Just when you're a heap of rotting fish bones, you're inevitably going to be asked to protect the purchase for 2 to 5 years against any accidents, defects, blah, blah, blah, all for a small additional sum that would feed my family in Canada for a month. Maybe you believe in karma and that if you turn down this amazing offer, you'll break the camera next week. It's my opinion that for the thirty seconds you have to listen to this store spiel, change your faith to fatalism and trust that if you break the camera it was meant to happen and you won't change the future. Then say "no thanks," and go back to whatever faith or lack of faith you have. The camera already has a good enough warranty to protect you from defects. Your homeowner or apartment renters insurance should have a deductible for theft. And the world is a worse off place because people consider objects disposable or easily replaced, so just try to take care of your purchase the old-fashioned way and take responsibility if it's damaged. A third-world child will give you a hug one day, I promise.
7. Get a gift receipt and don't buy anything you can't exchange or return for at least 14 days. I really hope you don't go shopping at the last minute and buy something you can't return. You're practically begging for trouble if you do. End of the year sales are coming up and this is the perfect chance for them to force you to reconsider extra warranty insurance, "because you'll never be able to return this camera." If you find yourself trusting their warped logic, it's too late for you. You drank the Kool-Aid. But if you have any self-respect left, sit on your money a little while longer until you can fully acknowledge the risk you're taking. The first thing you'll need to try if you bought a lemon is to exchange it at the store for another camera. Afterwards, the camera's own warranty will cover any defects. So is it worth the no-return risk and added warranty expense? Not likely. Nor do you want to be the victim of an oxymoron tactic to get you buying something on sale yet spending more than you intended.
Feel free to pass this post along to anyone you think is about to get preyed on during the holidays, especially if you think they're going to shop for you. Anyhow, I'll try to re-write this and update it as I get a chance. But if this helps just one person to avoid splurging on a mistake, I'll be perfectly content.

Last Minute Shopping For Cameras as Gifts

I was in my local camera shop yesterday, looking for a mini-Lenspen as a stoking-filler for a bridge camera owning friend. An elderly couple walks into the store, looking for a case for a Canon Ixus SD500 or some such. Rob, the assistant manager, points them at a little Lowepro bag on the shelf, and also mentions that Canon make their own little leather cases too.
"Which one's better?" the elderly gentleman asks.
"You mustn't ask me, because it's just my job to sell you things." replies Rob. "Ask that chap, there," he adds, helpfully, pointing to me, "He doesn't work here."
Needless to say, he's worked there seven years without a promotion. That said, everyone assumes he is the manager...

That is awesome. I love people like Rob.

Man body slams woman to ground so hard she has a fit – then casually walks off
A DISTRESSING video has been circulating on social media of a man violently body slamming a woman to the ground.
The man aggressively grapples with the girl who appears to be trying to free herself from his grip.
However he manages to grab her upper body and swings her over his shoulder and onto the ground – making a painful-sounding thud as she hits the floor.
An onlooking woman then punches the man as he tries to get back on his feet.
The yob manages to get up and then shoves the woman to the ground.
A third woman then pushes the violent bloke away and exclaims: "What the f*** is wrong with you?"
The footage then cuts to the friend who is tending to her pal on the floor.
She can be heard saying "wake up" to her mate – and then "what the f***" to the man who casually walks back on the scene.
The victim attempts to sit up while clutching her head but worryingly, she quickly falls back to the floor and starts convulsing.
Screams of "oh my God" can be heard in the background.
The incident occurred in an unknown location in the US and the footage was uploaded to video-sharing site LiveLeak yesterday (October 16).
One viewer: "That's what equality looks like."
While another wrote: "Apparently a lot of people don't understand proportional response. Anyone who thinks that was necessary is a poor excuse for a person."
The condition of the victim and the exact location is not disclosed within the video.
Footage from a number of brutal fights have gone viral online – a furious dad was recently captured breaking up a brutal fight involving his son with his car.
This summer a man in the UK was filmed fearlessly beating up two yobs who threw a stone at his girlfriend in an underpass.

When A.J. Walton goes church on Wednesday night, he will have a lot to be thankful for. The 6-foot, 175-pound Hall High School in Little Rock, Arkansas made his college decision on Tuesday night.
Walton made the call to Baylor and verbally committed to the Bears shortly after spending some time in the church and getting it ready for Wednesday's services.
"I felt like it was the right time for me to call coach [Scott] Drew," Walton, a Rivals150 prospect, said. "Me and my dad sat down and looked at all of the rosters and liked what Baylor has and what they have coming in. They had the best opportunity for me to come in and play right away as a freshman."
Article Continues Below
Walton joins Cory Jefferson in the 2009 recruiting class for Baylor. He also strongly considered Arkansas, Kentucky and Marquette.
"When we looked at the other programs, they had seniors and juniors. I'm not saying that I want to be the man right away but Baylor had the best opportunity to play the most the earliest," he said.
Walton closed out his summer period strong with a great showing at the AAU Nationals against fellow nationally ranked point guard Eric Bledsoe. The Bears were on hand for the match-up and have been hot after Walton for quite some time. He said that the longevity in the recruiting process was a factor in his decision.
"That helped out a lot," Walton said. "I got to know coach Drew and all of the staff really well. I went down there a couple of years ago for their camp and they weren't even really recruiting me but they made me feel like a Bear from the moment that they met me. That meant a lot."

Were getting ready to take on a massive makeover of our D*S office (its a mess), so Ive been hunting for wallpaper and wall hangings to bring a little life to our mostly black and white space. Quercus Co. has a seriously colorful collection of wall hangings and wall paper that bring bold colors to patterns inspired by traditional kilims and tiles. Im a big fan of the blue and pink color palettes, but there are some bright greens that would look great in a modern space as well. If these patterns arent quite your style, there are also some traditional color charts for sale that come with beautiful brass hardware detailing. Theyd be a great gift for an art student- theyre a nice step up from posters taped to the wall. Click here to check out Quercus Co.s full collection and shop online. xo, grace (more)

EU legitimacy in question
From lost referendums to growing contention of the EU's role in policies, people's commitment to the European project has diminished further this year.
21st Nov 2017
From lost referendums to growing contention of the EU's role in policies, people's commitment to the European project has diminished further this year.
EUobserver wishes you a new Europe! This year's Europe in Review edition looks back at all the events of 2016 that will define the coming year.
The V4 countries - Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia - has turned the EU's migration policy around. They now set their sights on reshaping the union.
The EU's migration policy in 2016 was marked by a record number of deaths at the Mediterranean and deep rifts among member states on how to handle asylum.
The British vote to leave the EU was, in large part, the product of neglect and circumstance. But it is also too late to put the genie back in the bottle.
EU trade policy has become a target for environmentalists, transparency advocates and populists alike, casting a doubt whether Europe can still close trade deals.
The outrage at Volkswagen's industrial-scale emissions cheating has not subsided, but the EU and Germany have done little to punish the automaker or provide compensation to its customers.
Just days after Britain's vote to leave the EU, the bloc was rocked by the news that commission ex-president, Jose Manuel Barroso, had landed a top job with Goldman Sachs.
The election of the property magnate after a campaign marked by racism, sexism and "post-truth" arguments will have consequences for EU security, politics and public debate.
EU states will, this year, try to save Schengen by sealing external borders and try to keep Britain in the Union: A big agenda, which makes normal EU law-making look small.
The European Court of Justice delivered stunning verdicts in 2015 to protect citizens' fundamental privacy rights over mass-surveillance.
EUobserver will continue to report on the EU exactly as it is - good or bad. But let's hope there will be better news to report in 2016.
2015 was a news-filled year. Here's a look back at our 20 most popular articles of the year.
The anti-Ukraine and anti-Western propaganda became so shrill EU leaders launched a new counter-propaganda cell in the EU foreign service.
In January, Viktor Orban's inflammatory comments concerning migrants raised eyebrows. By the end of the year, politicians across Europe echoed his sentiments.
In July, Greek prime minister Alexis Tsipras was a night away from leading his country out of the eurozone. His challenge for the coming year will be to avoid new political tussles.
The year when borders came back to Europe.

The prospect of an EU-US trade agreement was one of relatively few sources of comfort for EU lawmakers about the bloc's struggling economy in 2013.
Reasons for delay abounded: not enough women, an east-west row over the next foreign affairs chief and a Slovenian minidrama. Still, the Juncker commission took office as planned, on 1 November.

Tomodachi Pretty Cure! Episodes
2. Kimura's nightmare comes true?
Kimura Hamasaki/Cure Eternal is the leader of the group. She is very sporty, soccer being her favourite, and is very picky when it comes to food. She is the second oldest of all the cures - Himura being the eldest. Her theme colour is purple and she controls the power of time.
Aimi Fukui Hoshi/Cure Opal is the comedian of the group. She is very athletic, and the second youngest of the group - Hana being the youngest. Aimi enjoys surfing the most, and is a very talented musician and plays flute, dabbles in guitar and piano and is an accomplished singer. Her theme colour is pink and can turn anything, be it people or furniture, into stone.
Mori Tanaka/Cure Titanium is the smart one. She uses words that belong in the oxford dictionary - in other words, very complex. Mori does not share the same love of sport as Kimura and Aimi, but adores music, and plays violin and piano. Her theme colour is blue and she controls the power of strength, metal and fire.
Hana Koizumi/Cure Tulip has two green thumbs and loves all flora and fauna. She likes to laugh, care for the environment, draw and play with her mascot, Pip. Hana thrives in a scientific environment and absolutely loves anythong geographic. Her theme colour is green and she can manipulate the earth.
Himura Takenaka/Cure Scarlett is very smart. She doesn't like sport that much, but loves to read. She plays clarinet in the school band and can speak three different languages fluently. These languages are Russian, German and English. Her theme colour is Scarlett (what a surprise!) and can manipulate her size to make her either bigger or smaller.
Maho is Kimura's mascot partner. Maho is energetic and friendly cheetah and has a habit of annoying Aimi, Mori and Hana. Since she is Cheetah, she is a really fast runner. Maho also can perform magic tricks to show off, and also annoy Kimura's friends and looks after Cherry as a mother figure.
Cherry is Aimi's mascot partner. She is a white bengal tiger, is active, playful and helpful and spends a lot of time trying to acheive her life goal - trying to catch a rabbit. Cherry loves to have training sessions with Aimi. Aimi has taught Cherry a range of tricks such as roll over, jump, play dead, speak and fist-bump.
Honoka is Mori's mascot partner. Honoka is a wolf and likes tracking down her prey. She, by nature, is the leader of the mascots - or as Mori calls her, the Alpha. Honoka enjoys playing and has a lively personality.
Pip is Hana's mascot partner. He is a friendly and kind axolotl who loves helping the environment! Pip, being an axolotl, loves water and travels around in a bubble.
Shinrai is Himura's mascot partner. He is a red panda. Shinrai is friendly and can speak the same three languages that Himura can speak. The languages are Russian, German and English.
Itazura is a general in Queen Waru's private guard. He is very loyal to his mistress, but the cold-hearted queen never gives him any sign of praise in return, only a dark, icy stare that will shoot daggers through your chest. Itazura is constantly trying to stop Méiyǒu from stealing the Queen's power and turning the Arachnidia Kingdom into wreck and ruin. However, his plans never succeed, and it is in fact the cures who stop Méiyǒu in his tracks.
Queen Waru is the queen of Arachnidia Kingdom. She sends Itazura and Méiyǒu down to Earth to retain the orb of Nature from the Pretty Cures into her possession.
Cherry Blossom Pendant is the girls transformation device.
Orb of Nature is the item that helps the girls with their upgrade attack.
- Names and mostly ideas came from my friends!
- My friends have next to no knowledge of Japanese whatsoever!!! - Quote by Maddie D (A.K.A Aimi-Fukui Hoshi & Grace_Davies99)
- Kimura Hamasaki is actually CureKanade because she actually leads her group of friends around a lot. (Well at least I think so- it's what Mori said but in different words.)
- The reason why Aimi is Cure Opal is because opal is her birthstone.
- This is the third series where the girls got to name theirselves. The first were Heartcatch Pretty Cure and Cure Natsuki's series, Kokoro Pretty Cure!
- This is the third series to have a japanese title. The first were Dokidoki! Pretty Cure and Cure Natsuki's series, Kokoro Pretty Cure!

I am sitting in the dark and crying.
Please don't get the wrong idea – these are tears of joy.
I'm at the back of the gym at my nephew's school. The kids are rehearsing their end-of-the-year play. I've worked as his aide at this particular school for the better part of a decade.
The kids are acting out small vignettes and large musical numbers that they've written themselves. They've been working on it since January.
As they sing and dance, a wave of memories of them all as Kindergarteners floods through me. Suddenly Leo is six years old again. Big blue eyes and bowl-cut hair. He is crouched on the floor with me watching the action from more than an arm's length. He is stimming to cope. I am cheerleading and pointing with way too much enthusiasm.
In the old days, I was literally up there on stage with him.
Slowly, I moved down to the floor in front.
As he got older he wore headphones and played drums. It was a great way to participate without having to deal with other people's anxious agendas and the blast of sensory information barreling at him from all sides.
I remember the exact moment of the first real onstage breakthrough; the third grade concert when his joy overrode everything else and he allowed himself to get swept up in the music. The class parents erupted in applause as they witnessed him shine so authentically. He broke down in tears; overwhelmed with the emotionality of it all.
But the arduousness of that is over now.
Now he struts.
He has comedic timing.
He oozes confidence and, without any bias at all, I can honestly say, he has a spectacular singing voice.
He is thriving and I can't believe it is literally The End Of An Era.
He will be on his own next year, without an aide, at a school that specializes in teaching kids with different learning profiles.
He already has a movie date lined up. Both he and his new friend (they met at the orientation) know exactly how long the movie is in length and the day it comes out in theatres.
This from a child who sat at a table for 40 hours a week doing every kind of therapy his parents could get their hands on.
This bird has definitely flown the nest and he's changed my life forever by giving me the priceless gift of his perspective.
The fire within him is burning bright.
It's impossible to say what the future will bring, but one thing is for sure –
He will have a say in it.
I am proud to denounce my title as Therapist and be Just Auntie forever after.
That's more than good enough for me.

|Step by step guides for the
preparation and articulation of
animal skeletons.
|Bragging Rights
|In July, 2015, I was invited to go to Fort Bragg, California, to help articulate a couple sea
lion skeletons for the NOYO Center for Marine Science. I had never before met the
director, Sheila Seamans, and was going to be working with Mike DeRoos and his wife
Michi Main, who are the top skeleton articulation specialists in Canada. I had met Mike
once before in Victoria, BC, as he was working on an 85-foot long blue whale skeleton
that came out as probably the nicest blue whale skeleton ever put on display. It is now
at the Beaty Museum of Bio Diversity in Vancouver, BC. Mike and Michi and family were
all there, and between everyone it was a dream team bone building experience.
|Fort Bragg is a small coastal town. A town harder to get to than my hometown of Homer, Alaska! It
took three plane rides and a two-hour drive to get there from Homer. Fort Bragg is a similar sized
town to the one I live in. It had many of the same ingredients; interesting, ambitious, talented
people, small town "can do" mentality, and a marine science center director with a "volunteer
magnet" personality (And what a magnet! The volunteers showed up one right after another!).
|We had two sea lion skeletons to do. An adult male California sea lion and a sub-adult, female Steller sea lion,
both found dead in the local area (one having been shot multiple times) -- we had over two dozen volunteers
actively working on the skeleton with us. They ranged from interns and docents, to students and parents, to
business owners and curious pedestrians who wandered by. Our workshop was an old community gymnasium
attached to the city hall. The mayor frequently came by, a state senator visited, and lots of curious people
popped in. With such good helpers, we got both skeletons finished within the eleven days.

In 1977, the Centre for African Studies at the University of Edinburgh devoted its annual seminar to African historical demography. The co-convenors at the time, Christopher Fyfe and David McMaster, outlined the scale of the challenge to scholars working on African history:
Historians of Africa are continually thwarted by the lack of reliable statistics about African populations in the past. No authoritative estimates are available. Most are guesswork (Fyfe and McMaster, 1977).
Forty years have passed since that meeting and yet similar statements still feature in the introductions of research papers on African demography. Even so, significant progress has undoubtedly been made in this field. The Edinburgh meetings stimulated much research during the 1980s, that took advantage of colonial censuses, hospital records as well as an array of oral sources (Cordell et al, 2016).
A range of historical population records are available to historical demographers. Perhaps the most relied upon for a reasonable sample of a population, especially in European historical demography, has been parish registers. These registers, often archived in hidden corners of churches throughout Christendom, offer insights into the demography of communities – historic and contemporary - otherwise unrecorded by modern methods of data collection. Parish registers exist in several forms depending on location and time period, however they are generally records of baptisms, marriages and burials made by the church. They each contain valuable information of – amongst other things – birth and death dates which can be used to estimate the length of lives and give a real sense of the prevailing health conditions of the period.
For the most part, hidden corners of churches are where many parish registers remain to this day. Undigitised and often unloved, perhaps the only record of some populations can be found in books falling apart at the seams. My own doctoral fieldwork recently took me to Navrongo in Northern Ghana, where I took up the task of photographing the entire archive of parish records held by the Catholic Cathedral in Navrongo. This parish is of interest because it was the site of the first catholic mission in Ghana, founded in 1906 by three members of the White Fathers missionary group. Being an active parish to this day, the records represent a 111-year period of recent history and holds great promise in being able to describe contemporary population patterns of the area.
Make no mistake, there is something deeply masochistic about this kind of research. A six-week trip from late February to early April of this year saw nearly 22,000 photos being taken. With each photo – with varying degrees of success – photographed in accordance with the British Library's endangered archives guidelines. This work was done during the peak of Northern Ghana's dry season, which saw mid-afternoon temperatures regularly reach 43°C. In this regard, data collection felt like a real test of endurance, in both the physical and academic sense.
Given this project has - in one form or another - been in the planning for a couple of years, it was a huge relief to find a huge archive of records upon arrival in Navrongo. The parish held 16,312 parish cards, 32 books of marriage certificates, 28 baptism registers, 13 confirmation registers, 4 marriage registers, 3 death registers, a first holy communion register and a cemetery register. Inevitably, it is now the task to digitise and clean all this data. At this point any willing volunteers to help will be gratefully received!
Given the relative ease to which I was granted permission to access the archives, my only other concern for the project was the condition the records were in. Happily, for the most part, records were generally legible, even those dating back to the earliest years of the parish. Some books however, were in a very sorry state, often crumbling in my hands as I manoeuvred them towards my tripod. Being respectful to the source material became one of the greatest challenges I faced as a field researcher.
Beyond the digitisation and description of this data, my next step will be to link this data with the contiguous health and demographic surveillance site conducted and managed at the nearby Navrongo Health Research Centre to assess the quality of parish register data. At the time of writing however, this will be a job for next year. Until then I look forward to another productive trip in the future, just not during the dry season.

Fyfe, C and McMaster, D (eds). (1977). African Historical Demography. Proceedings of a seminar held in the Centre of African Studies, University of Edinburgh, 29th and 30th April 1977, Edinburgh, Edinburgh University Press.
Last November I entered the ESRC "Making sense of society" writing competition, where ESRC funded PhD students were challenged to write about their research in 800 words to a lay audience. I didn't win or get shortlisted, although I did receive an automated receipt of entry email - so I suppose that's something right? For those interested in my attempt to sell African historical demography to the masses, you can find my attempt reproduced below.
What if I told you that much of the UN's population statistics for the developing world were made up? Have you ever wondered what goes into the production of a demographic statistic? Something which provides vital information on the size, age and health of us, the key agents of our society.
The UN's Population Division knows full well that when they publish their annual revision of worldwide demographic data – which is widely regarded as the authority of past, present and future population patterns – they are showcasing to the world a set of numbers that, for at least 40% of the world's countries, are false.
Should we be angry? Absolutely not. Alas, it's the best that the world's leading demographers can do given the circumstances. For us in the UK, we have a relatively good record of the size and shape of our historic and modern day populations, given our first nationwide census was conducted in 1801 and we have had civil registration since 1837. From a statistical perspective, developing countries are not so lucky. The countries of Western Sahara and the Democratic Republic of Congo have never had a census of any validity conducted within their territories. The West African country of Guinea-Bissau has only held two censuses since 1991. Even where a census has taken place, it's often the case that the data collected is limited and of little use. Given the absence of a centralised system of death registration in Guinea-Bissau, it's not even possible to calculate an indicator as fundamental as death rates with any confidence.
I'm a historical demographer. My scientific concern is to understand the populations of the past. I am forever amazed by the wealth of information publicly available detailing the historic numbers of people, dating from the present day to well before the birth of Christ. However what is less widely known, is the thin empirical basis that these numbers have been calculated from. Extrapolations, interpolations and a vast array of statistical wizardry have all been used on ecclesiastical records of baptisms, marriages, and burials. But at any given point in time, a set of church records can only represent a tiny sample of the total population of an area. Additionally, the biases contained within the data (indeed, only Christians go to church) are enough to make any statisticians stomach churn.
Despite these methodological problems, much work has been done in Europe using parish records to reconstruct historical populations. The Cambridge Group for the History of Population have managed, with reasonable precision, to calculate England's population back to the medieval period. However eccentric this type of research my seem, the benefits are of huge consequence to British society. Because of this work we know where we've come from as a people. We know how patterns of fertility and childbearing have changed over time. We know which diseases have been a burden on our population and how disease risk has ebbed and waned throughout history. All of which give real historical context to contemporary policy makers in areas such as family life, healthcare and migration.
How lucky we are. The reverse is true for much of Sub-Saharan Africa. A few censuses for each African state and the odd survey here and there give demographers a murky snapshot of the size of Africa's populations. It beggar's belief, given today's high scientific standards, that Africa's colonial era censuses were conducted by Europeans, often inebriated, conducting head counts of families on the scruffiest of notepads, with children running around their feet. And yet, for most countries in Africa pre-1990, this is all the information we have.
Conducting a full census on an African nation is well beyond the scope of my PhD, but an effort to reconstruct the historical population of a small corner of Africa is not. The Catholic parish of Navrongo in Northern Ghana, founded by French-Canadian missionaries in 1906, is my own field site. When their church records are digitised from dusty ant-eaten notebooks to a statistically analysable dataset, my vision is to make sense and to tell a chapter from the story of African demographic history as it really was, using real empirical data.
I've often referred to Ghana, and many other African nations, as 'countries without histories'. Not because nothing happened (on the contrary), but because their histories have only been partially told. Thanks to Christian conversion efforts, traces of demographic history are lying everywhere waiting for souls to 'reawaken' them. I often hear from colleagues working in the physical sciences that we know more about the surface of Mars than we do about the deep oceans. A similar analogy can be made for the social sciences, for we know much more about the relatively static populations of the West than we do about the fastest growing continent on earth.

No, the White Stripes spent that shell two years ago, when they came out of nowhere (or southwest Detroit), a quirky little costume duo one day, the Band That Saved Rock 'n' Roll the next. Then we were surprised. But this time? Nah. Of course, that's a good thing.
Elephant, the band's first release since 2001's White Blood Cells, has everything that made that album so strong and its predecessors so worth digging around for: fuzzy, electric blues-punk descended from Mississippi by way of Led Zeppelin, mixed in with touches of sweet folk and pretty pop and Jack White's modified Robert Plant wail. It's not as good as other critics are telling you, but it is very, very good, right from the first chord of the first song, a sinister, low-end bang from Jack's guitar followed quickly by Meg White's pounding, Animal-style drumbeat. Who says these guys need a bass player?
For all its sudden success, the band offers blessedly little carping about the trappings and pressures of fame, save for some veiled ranting on that opener, "Seven Man Army" ("I'm going to Wichita," Jack vows, "far from this opera for evermore") -- though it's not much of a whine, and does nothing to drag down what is otherwise the highlight of the album. Beyond that, Elephant is exhilarating, notably the multi-Jacked vocals of "There's No Room for You Here," a reworking of "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" with Queen-like harmonies, and "Ball and Biscuit," lifted, it would appear, from some unreleased third side of Zeppelin 1.
No, there are no surprises on Elephant, except perhaps that there are no surprises on Elephant. The White Stripes continue to be the White Stripes, fame and all, and there's no reason to believe that this album would sound any different if Jack and Meg had never advanced beyond the Motor City.

Peter Andre has revealed that his brother Andrew's kidney cancer has spread.
The singer flew back to Australia last month to be with his sibling after his diagnosis.
He later admitted that it had been a "very tense time indeed" as his brother received treatment.
Andre wrote in his most recent column for New magazine: "Sadly, we've not had a great week and Andrew's test results weren't good at all.
"Unfortunately, the cancer has spread and it's the outcome we were all dreading. We're trying very hard to stay positive but it's really knocked us all for six and, if I'm honest, I'm not dealing with it very well."
He continued: "I don't mind admitting that there have been quite a few tears on my part. When someone in my family suffers, we all suffer. That's how we deal with things.
"You hear about people living with cancer all the time and you always feel sympathetic, but when it's your own flesh and blood, it hits you really hard."
