Good morning, friends! Christmas has come and gone, but we are still basking in the memories and sugar coma over here. Our holiday celebration spawned two weeks. Between events, work parties and celebrations we had four Christmases, visited three Santas, two train displays and had one too many treats. Here's a little highlight reel of the festivities. THURSDAY Does Read More »

Winter Wonderland Weekend
Hello from snowy Michigan! After a slow start to the month, Mother Nature made up for the lack of snow this weekend in a major way.

Giving Thanks!
Today, our holiday tradition calls upon us to sit back and reflect on the myriad of people and moments for which we are grateful. Most of our waking day is devoted to work and other needs – tackling to do lists and deadlines, and trying to manage all of the 'musts' in our lives. This work has high points, and, some moments that are less than ideal. We persevere. We share Read More »

The myth is saying that the Gods of the Winds were the children of Astraeus, the God of the Night-sky and father of the stars and the Goddess of Morning Eos. According to Homer a ruler over the winds was the king Aeolus. The winds were completely subdued as his instruments, he kept them locked and he let them to go out, when he or the gods wanted.
The cult of the winds was confirmed by the ancient authors on many places of Greece. Always a special, individually named wind was worshipped, which determined the weather at a certain period of the year or at a certain place. The Athenians adored Boreas, who according to the myth abducted Oreithyia, the daughter of the Athenian king Erechtheus. They built a temple to Boreas near the river Ilyssos, because they believed that it was the North Wind who helped them to destroy the Persian fleet. On the other side the Spartans were waiting for the east wind Eurus and its refreshing rain and they called him the Savior of Sparta. In Methana a ritual existed, in which a cock was sacrificed and where they were walking with this animal in procession around the vineyards. This special act had to banish Livos, the southwest wind, which was bringing rain. The inhabitants of the island Keos pursued the sacrifices for the cooling Etesian winds (etisios means "coming back every year"). Also the people of the Greek cities in the southern part of Italy used the sacrifice - of an ass - this time against the evil of the north wind.
The Gods of the Winds are depicted always as the personifications of men with their wings, but usually with different expressions and attributes. This type, a man with wings, was influenced by the Near-Eastern iconography and their belief in Ramman, the god of the wind, thunder and storms, who came to the Syrian mythology as Adad-Ramman. This winged Nature-god was represented on the Near-Eastern cylindrical seals from 15th century BCE, discovered in the Mycenaean necropolis of Perati. Also pictures of the Wind-god were found on some Greek Black-figured vases from 6th century BCE and we noticed that between some miniature ivory figures, depicting some mythological events, this image can be recognized, but such representations were very sporadic. After the Greek-Persian Wars the scenes showing the God of the Wind (and specially Boreas) became more popular. Due to a new interest of the Athenians in Boreas, the myth about North Wind and Oreithyia was in fashion on the Greek Red-figure vases until the Late Classical period.
Boreas - the most coldest and powerful wind - was depicted in the dramatic poses, dressed in a short cloth, which was moving round his body, the same as his curling hair and beard which were like flying. But later on this curly hair and beard were depicted more and more spiky. The vase-painters pictured small wings around his legs, but Pausanias was saying that the god had snake-tails and not normal feet. Also his sons - Zetes and Kalais (the comrades of Jason in the Argo) became winged as they became adults and they were presented again with these small wings around their legs.
Zephyrus, the west wind, was a very fine and a pleasant one. People called him the protector of the plants, because he brought humidity for them. He was represented as a young man with a lovely face and long grooved hair while keeping flowers and fruit in his light wrapper, which was encircling his body. Later on he was named Favonius by the Romans.
The south wind Notus was known as a very dynamic, stormy and dangerous wind especially when seamen were sailing. The Greeks were afraid of him, mainly when he blew together with the north wind. Notus was represented as a young, beardless man with long hair, covered by a short mantle with one open arm. He kept in his hands a vessel for water - hydria - from which all the rain was gushing out.
Eurus, the east wind, was bringing the bad storms, but he was more kind to the people, than his brothers Boreas and Notus. He also was wearing a short mantle encircling his body. He was depicted as a curly-headed man with an unkempt beard and with some sadness in his face. Sometimes he was called Apeliotus and the Romans called him Vulturnus.
But Apeliotus was in reality the name for the southeast wind, which was giving to people a refreshing rain. Therefore they pictured him as a curly-hair man with a friendly expression, dressed in a light cloth and keeping inside his draping cloths some flowers. And his brother Lips (Livos), who was a lukewarm southwest wind, was also bringing rain.
The northwest wind was called by the Athenians Skeiron. According to Pausanias it was a smart wind, which was blowing over the Skeirons' cliffs and Molourian rocks to the sea. The name Skeiron was taken from the mythological events, connected with the king's son of Megara, who was described as an honest man, but according to the other myths Skeiron was a robber. Theseus, when he seized Eleusis, killed him and after established in his honor the Isthmian Games under the protection of Poseidon.
Kaikias, the northeast wind, had a bad name in Greece as the bearer of snow, coldness and blizzards. This was the reason, why he took this name and why he had this image. He was represented as a man with serious features in his face, with a long hair and a beard. Hail is dropping out from his round vessel, which he is always carrying.
To see all the images of the Wind-Gods together, we have to turn our attention to the so called Tower of the Winds in Athens, near of the Roman Agora. The tower, which was built as a horologion (time-clock) in the half part of the first century BCE by the Syrian architect Andronicus Cyrrhestes, was made on the ground-plan of the eight angles. The reliefs of the eight personifications of the winds are decorating the fries, in which from every pertinent side a specific god-wind with his name is represented.

A Book You Can Buy From Me
Book Title: Perhaps Today
Author: Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins

Web link for Jerry Jenkins: http://www.jerryjenkins.com/
Web link for the Left Behind fiction series (this is the nonfiction explanation): http://leftbehind.com/
Web link for Tyndale House: http://tyndale.com/00_Home/index.php
Date: 2001
Publisher: Tyndale House
Length: 244 pages
Quote: "To all those who want spiritual inspiration and prophetic instruction at the same time we dedicate this book."
The ultra-successful Left Behind series is, of course, speculative fiction. Christians who've tried to understand the prophecies in the Bible have interpreted them to form dozens of different mental pictures of what's likely to happen before the Second Coming of Christ. In Perhaps Today, LaHaye and Jenkins share one of the visions that are classified as "pre-tribulationist." (In the book they use the whimsical form "pre-tribbers.")
Fair disclosure: My father, and the ministers to whom I was exposed at a formative age, were "post-tribulationists," the kind of Bible scholars who believe that the "pre-tribulationist" vision rests on an incorrect translation of a Greek word. I would need more evidence than this book presents that the word apostesia ever meant "The Rapture." Translating apostesia as "departure, desertion, falling away" makes more etymological sense; if there's historical ground for the alternative translation, it's not presented in this book.
Then there are those who think the reason why Bible prophecies, and interpretations of them, seem to disagree is that they may be conditional: if people do A, then God will do B; if people do X, then God will do Y. What all Christians believe is that God wants us to think about such differences of belief, when we do, in a spirit of charity and humility. One day we'll all find out where we made our mistakes, and I believe we'll all be able to laugh (together!) at all the honest mistakes we made.
If (a) you believe that the apostesia foretold in the New Testament does mean "The Rapture," or (b) you would like to understand how people can honestly believe that it does, then Perhaps Today is for you. It's a ninety-day course in the biblical basis for, and implications of, LaHaye's and Jenkins' vision. It's a well written, understandable, small book that can be used as a daily devotional. Even if you don't think the authors have interpreted something precisely right, they keep the focus on Christ, so meditating on the implications of the passages they study can still be helpful.
There are versions of "The Rapture" that still seem ludicrous to me, and I'm glad to report that our authors don't try to preach any of them. Remember those bumper stickers, "In case of Rapture this car will be unmanned"? Honestly. Did these people believe that God was able to use molecular transport to waft them off to Heaven, without being able either to move them to park their cars first, or to move their cars out of traffic?
A more serious problem with meditating on the Second Coming (regardless of the school of interpretation to which one belongs) is that people will neglect their plain duty in this world. After all, they believe that God is going to clean up whatever mess this world may be in. Why care about the still real possibilities of nuclear war, a fascist takeover, the slower and more plausible version of the global warming scare, plagues, famines, or even whether you're polluting your own well, if the world is coming to an end soon?
LaHaye and Jenkins wrote Perhaps Today with a clear intention of discouraging this heresy. Pre-tribulationists are supposed to pray for help to avoid any sin that might prevent them from being raptured. Like post-tribulationists, they are supposed to live both as if they were going to live forever, and as if their lives were going to end tomorrow, at the same time.
Perhaps Today is the sort of book that can help all of us move beyond nitpicking, and try to arrange our lives in such a way that, if God does choose to arrange for all the sincere Christians' cars to be found abandoned one day, ours will be among them.

To our surprise, Alpine Avocado Vinaigrette is incredibly versatile across many food groups. We encourage you to be creative! And we love to hear how folks are using AAV… feel free to shoot us an email of your favorite recipe: email@example.com.
Alpine Avocado Vinaigrette (AAV) delivers a boat load of flavor to a variety of dishes, and it tends to work best when cast in the "leading role" in terms of flavor. A perfect example is when marinating fish.
The less oily, white, flakey fishes such as halibut, cod, sea bass and tilapia work very all when marinated in AAV. The more oily, 'fishy' tasting fishes don't like sharing the spotlight with AAV (or many other marinades for that matter). The one exception to this rule is salmon, which is one of my favorite things to cook up using AAV as a marinade.
It is important to remember that fish is delicate meat. That said, you need to be aware that acidic marinades like AAV will start to breakdown the protein if left on too long. Mushy fish is never a good thing!
The ideal amount of time to marinate fish is around 30 minutes with just a light coat over top and bottom. Hint: Allow the fish to absorb the flavor of AAV at room temperature on the kitchen counter. By doing so, you will achieve a much more even cook throughout the meat than if you take the fish out of the refrigerator and start cooking it cold.
Although I will almost always prefer the flavor of fish from the grill, the following recipes taste great when grilled or baked.
Vegetables are an obvious corner stone for Alpine Avocado Vinaigrette and you'd be hard pressed to find a scenario where it didn't work: in-the-raw, sauteed or grilled, on a salad or comfortably nestled between the slices of a fresh deli sandwich…no matter how you slice it
AAV as a marinade is a snap and quite rewarding for the experiened and novice chefs alike. You don't need to overdo your dish with AAV, just enough to lightly coat the yummies prior to cooking and you're set.
To Bake or To Grill? Zhat is zee question!
Both work great, but since I'm more of an outdoorsy person, I tend to lean towards the grill when it comes to vegetables. It's like my water cooler. I really enjoy dry heat on my veggies that leaves crisp, char-grilled edges. But again, you really can't go wrong.
It is my belief that 'more' is almost always 'the merrier' when it comes to a quality salad of any variety. Now, as much as I enjoy a light garden side salad at a restaurant, the salads I create in my home are a grand affair. Trust me, I'll throw the kitchen sink in with the greens! Ok, I tease…but there ARE a few items that consistently make the cut:
- a hearty lettuce like spinach, kale or cabbage
- a crunchy nut (sliced, toasted almonds is my "go to", but I also enjoy pine nuts and walnuts)
- a cheese
- avocado (of coarse)
- usually a meat (these days it tends to be chicken breast from a rotisserie chicken)
From there, I move on to the "Trilogy of Veggies"…cucumber, tomato, and onion (red or green).
Random thought: a salad is best in a HUGE bowl because it lets you separate items build the 'perfect bite' every time.

Anything You Want Trailer (2010)
10 September 2010 Drama, Foreign 101 mins
Leo is immediately set adrift by his new found responsibilities as a single parent, a feeling that is made doubly distressing when Dafne, herself understandably confused and heartbroken by her mother's absence, asks for an "artificial" mother to help her fall asleep at night. It is here that Mañas takes the road less traveled, but to write any more about the plot line he introduces would be unfair to both the viewer and filmmaker alike. Suffice it to say that Leo's actions are both surprising and potentially dangerous, as they require Leo to subsume his own identity to the point where he nearly loses it.

[Vironika] is the first and only life coach I will have. Finally: someone that understood me. Finally someone who walked in my shoes found a new and happy way to live.
Karen Maynard
I'm not looking up at a perfect guru, whose lesson will remain always out of grasp. I'm looking directly into the face of a beautiful soul who loves and accepts me just how I am, and I am able, finally, to see beauty and strength in myself too.
Lorissa Hughes
One of my coaching clients once said to me:
"There's nothing like the right support at the right time."
Many of us know what the right time is because we feel pain, but we don't know where to find the right support, so that pain turns into suffering rather than healing.
When you're going through a transformative time in your life and you're realizing that nothing is what you thought it was, you do not need someone to preach at you. You don't need dogma. You don't need someone to sit there, looking bored and detached from you while the timer clicks away. You don't need another inspirational quote or self-help book recommendation. You don't even need advice.
What you do need is someone to look you in the eye and see you—really see you. You need someone to see beyond your current chaos into the powerful, resilient, ever-changing, magnificent person that you are inside. You need someone who won't push their own beliefs and opinions onto you. You need someone to be a mirror for your light, so that you can get out of the darkness.
If you're feeling a deep, inner "Yes!" at these words, then we'll get along wonderfully. I am here to help people just like you—people who want to be awakened to their own inner potential and learn to become experts on themselves.
You can apply to work with me by scrolling to the bottom of the page, but before you do, take a moment to learn about how I can help you.
Whom Do I Help and How?
I help people on the journey of self-discovery and healing. Since all our journeys are different, people come to me for different reasons. Some common issues that I have helped clients explore and heal include:
- Chronic insecurity, feeling invisible, lack of confidence
- Experiences of anxiety and/or depression triggered by self-judgment
- Lack of motivation and follow-through (especially stemming from failed attempts at self-improvement)
- People-pleasing, relying on the approval of others
- Body image issues and toxic relationships with food
- Fear of criticism and failure
- Traumatic responses from past events (including rejection, neglect, and abuse)
- Patterns of relationship co-dependence and jealousy
- Inner separation (e.g. feeling a battle between heart and mind)
- Unreleased resentment and grudges for loved ones or people from the past
- Emotional numbness, lack of vulnerability
While the symptoms of an unhealthy relationship with oneself are unique to each individual, the symptoms of wellness tend to look more similar. I've watched my clients develop:
- Self-compassion and a growing sense of confidence
- Healthy patterns of self-talk and self-exploration
- Insight into the "inner voice" and the ability to communicate with it
- Productive responses to emotional triggers (instead of blowing up or shutting down)
- More fulfilling family, platonic, and romantic relationships
- Ability to take action and make changes, even with the possibility of criticism or failure
- Nourishing daily rituals of mental, physical, and emotional self-care
- Ability to let go and walk away from toxic situations, relationships, and activities
- A deeper sense of meaning and drive to do purpose-filled work (as well as guidance along the path of doing that work)
Just like each relationship is unique, each of my coaching relationships is unique as well. Coaching with me is not a 7-step program or a 4-part framework. It's more like a safe space for self-discovery—an intimate friendship with someone who sees the best in you and genuinely cares about seeing you thrive. I am here to cry with you, laugh with you, celebrate with you, and believe in you when you don't believe in yourself.
While there is no curriculum, there is a basic structure: self-aware self-discovery. That means we will work together to discover your authentic self in your own authentic way. The focus will be on helping you observe, accept, and understand yourself, so that you can not only overcome the struggles of today, but also build valuable skills that will help you tomorrow.
If this sounds right for you—great! Before you apply, know that I get many applications, but I only work with the people I truly believe I can help. That is why I have created a mini-profile of my most successful clients and a mini-profile of myself.
Is This You?
- You are willing to learn new things and be open to new information and experiences. If you are resistant to change, you are willing to work on this resistance and do your best to open your mind to new possibilities.
- You understand the value and importance of human-to-human help, and you are ready to share yourself intimately with another person.
- You are interested in discovering yourself and making your own choices, rather than seeking for an expert to cure you or make decisions for you. You are no longer wanting or willing to be a victim. You are not going to wait for someone to save you. You are ready to take responsibility for your own healing and happiness.
- You are willing to step outside of your comfort zone and act with courage (even if it means facing fears and being uncomfortable).
- You are honest, open, and willing to communicate your thoughts and feelings (even if you have a hard time communicating—you are willing to learn).
- You want to become the kind of person who not only lives without constant suffering, but also goes on to ease that suffering in others. You want to make the world a better place.
- You want to commit and stay committed. You know you need help, you want help, and, most importantly, you're ready to receive it.
A Little about ME
- I am "one of us"—I'm not someone who claims authority through a PhD, a deck of cards, or some magic portion. I've been into the depths of anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, self-hatred, and fear. I understand your pain. I can relate.
- I am honest about whom I can help and whom I can't. I build deeply intimate relationships with all my clients, and I choose those relationships wisely, so that we can both benefit in the long term. To me, that is called integrity.
- I will help you discover your own way and your own unique gifts (rather than trying to change you into who I think you should be).
- The work I do here is a product of my own self-awareness—this is what my inner wisdom has called me to do. I'm deeply passionate about this work and about my clients.
- I commit completely to the people I work with and I stop at nothing to help them grow, heal, and connect to themselves, others, and the world in a meaningful way.
- I believe that absolutely everyone can heal their mind, discover their inner power, and live a beautiful, inspiring life. I will not let you settle for labels that shrink your potential down to size. I will see your ability to heal and grow, even in the moments when you cannot.
What My Clients Say
Vironika is the first and only teacher I've worked with or read who is so willing to share her own very human experience, in all its perfect imperfectness. Her openness about her pitfalls and trials is what makes the message so accessible. I'm not looking up at a perfect guru, whose lesson will remain always out of grasp. I'm looking directly into the face of a beautiful soul who loves and accepts me just how I am, and I am able, finally, to see beauty and strength in myself too.
Lorissa Hughes
I began working with Vironika to learn how to love myself, a concept that I felt was selfish and contrary to my Christian beliefs. I always felt different from everyone else. I had lost all self confidence and frequently felt hurt or offended by others. I was at such a low point in my marriage, I just wanted out. But, I knew that I was "all screwed up" and needed to be clear minded before making a decision to leave the marriage. My first encounter with Vironika was through email. After reading an article she wrote for Mind Body Green and subsequently reading her book, "The Love Mindset", I knew this person understood what I could not. That question that ruminated through my mind every single day: what is wrong with me??? After seeking her help, her email response contained words that gave me my first hope in a very long time and became my lifeline: "You are not broken, you are stronger than you think".
…I now show up for myself, so I am never stranded or alone. And, I now accept him for who he is and choose to love him even when he disappoints. …I am often still confused; bewildered by his actions or lack thereof. But, I am secure in my worth. I see myself differently now. I have revisited old wounds, re-assessed and released them. I've learned that I must let go of old hurts, broken dreams and losses in order to receive new, better things and truly live. This is true inner peace. I have finally won the war after loosing many battles.
I'm not afraid of anything!
Debbi Howard
I was seriously struggling with tying my heart and mind together when I found Vironika's book The Love Mindset. After reading The Love Mindset, and realizing that I was not, in fact crazy, I reached out to Vironika through her website. Vironika helped me to connect my heart and brain so that they see the gifts that each one brings to the table. In doing so, honor both the mind and the heart to create a Love Mindset for my whole being. Working with Vironika has been, truly, a metamorphosis into discovering the fullness of Who I Am.
I feel whole and complete. I don't feel that I am "missing" anything because through this journey, I have found that both the heart and brain can co-exist AND BE HAPPY!!! I am able to be compassionate and loving, and I am completely satisfied with the decisions that I make. Finally, the critic that lives inside my head, is even impressed that soul and mind can co-exist, be happy AND excited to move forward without fear.
Wendi Spisak
Vironika embodies self-love and care in a mature way. Many people talk it. Ever the student of life, Vironika's wisdom is beyond her years. Vironika's unconditional acceptance moved me safely out of my head and into my core. Thinking my way out of things was useless if I could not feel and heal. Vironika's unlimited e-mail support was no joke. She was truly there for me, and her responses timely. I am amazed at her commitment to my growth. She is a wonderful listener and our Skype sessions always left me empowered, ready to be with and stand up for myself.
Stephanie Hoffpauir
I feel so very blessed to have met Vironika. I have struggled with a lack of true identity most of my adult life which has caused anxiety, depression and generally not knowing my self worth. This overall lack of love for myself and others affected my intimate relationships. My marriage of over twelve years ended five years ago when my husband left me. Instead of working on myself I did the next best thing I thought: get into another relationship to desperately seek the love from an outside source. My relationship was not a healthy one from the start, but for the first time I was instantly attracted to this person physically and I fell so hard. I was controlling and attempting to make someone with addiction get better and love me – but he didn't feel anything more than a friend for me. I became completely obsessed in winning his love and admiration while totally losing myself in the process.
Both he and my husband chose to leave me for another woman. I carried anger, guilt and self judgement and loathing for so many years I did not even realize it. I have been in traditional therapy for many years searching for the quick fix of diagnosis and medication. I searched out codependency and self help books and even meditation sessions to get better.
Through being in a Meet-Up group I received an email from an upcoming speaker – Vironika Tugaleva. Her initial email was about loving yourself and how love is abundant and the key. I emailed her with a final hope that someone could finally put me on the path. She is the first and only life coach I will have. Finally: someone that understood me. Finally someone who walked in my shoes found a new and happy way to live.
Through my meetings with her she has given me a new way to live life and loving is really the answer. Letting go of emotional suffering is not purely distracting and ignoring your pain but actually feeling it and walking through it. I now look at other people differently than before. I have learned that because I have judged and labelled myself so much I didn't know how to really love. I am still on my path but I feel Vironika has helped point me in the right direction and I am making small changes everyday to accept my feelings and appreciate my importance in this world where we are truly loving beings deserving of self love. Thank you Vironika. I am eternally grateful for your love and wisdom.

Back to Anacortes
Cypress Island seems to be the center of my universe. My life rotates around it. I'm in Anacortes, then I'm in Friday Harbor. I'm in Canada, then I'm in Oregon. It's an elliptical orbit to be sure. This winter my revolutions have brought me back to Anacortes. I had my heart set on Friday Harbor, but a new, part-time job on the mainland forced the decision. I'll be working as a website designer for a local newspaper. At the same time, I'll be building up…
Birthing a Brain Child
For the last two weeks I've been visiting family and working on my van in Portland. I purchased the van on my way out of town during my last visit and it had been patiently waiting for me to give it a thorough inspection and a little TLC. My new home-on-wheels is a 1995 Gulfstream full-sized GMC van with a V8 Chevy 350 engine. I chose a van with a Chevy 350 engine and mid-90's era body because both are very easy to work on….
Van Camping the Olympic Peninsula
As I opened my eyes, I saw that fog was coming down the mountain and just beginning to kiss the tree tops in the golden light of dawn. As I lay in bed, I watched the fog get thicker while listening to the birds greeting a new day. My girlfriend and I were camped in the back of my truck in the Hoh Rain Forest on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. We were scouting the peninsula for great van-camping spots, once I get my…
To Friday Harbor
As Solace motors closer to the Islands, I feel that familiar sense of 'homecoming' wash over me. It really does feel like an invisible barrier through which I pass. Whether by ferry or private boat, returning from Canada or Oak Harbor (as I am today), the feeling is the same: I am home. At this point I am convinced the San Juan Islands will always be my home. And though I've lived on the outskirts for over five years, this winter will be my second…
Escape Velocity
I've fallen into a pleasant routine: In the morning I hop out of bed to make a cup of coffee and then work on the computer as I sip. Lately the focus has been on applying for jobs, revamping my professional website, and working on websites for friends so that I can build up my portfolio. Around noon I go for a jog and have lunch. In the afternoon I work on the boat. I've slowly been putting Solace back together after her long trip….
I was down in Portland, having a good-bye lunch with my father and uncle. In two hours I was going to get back on the highway and head back to Solace. They started chatting about something or other and my attention drifted. I always keep an eye on van prices around Seattle as I've been toying with the idea of buying one for months. I realized I never perused the listings in Portland while I was down here. A quick look came up with the…
Here's the dark side of getting complimented on your writing: Compliments feel good. So I try to do better and better. Eventually I psych myself up so much that I get writer's block. Nothing seems 'blog-worthy'. So much vanity. 😉 That's a long winded way of saying that this entry won't win any awards. I've been down in Portland for over a week, taking a break from the boat. The truth is that four months of non-stop voyaging scratched my itch. My fun-meter is pegged….
Routine is Heaven and Hell
Fear has been gnawing at me like a rat in the wall. When I pay attention to it, it scurries away and hides in some deep recess of my mind, only to later reappear on a near subconscious level. I woke up early to pack my truck for a trip to Friday Harbor. I was at the top of the dock, walking back to my boat for another load when the sunlight played out over the hill and crashed into the dock like a tsunami….
Dragging Anchor
I was sitting on my girlfriends couch in Friday Harbor. I had just put in the first load of laundry. I was enjoying a cup of fresh brewed coffee and her high speed internet. I'd only been away from Solace for about twenty minutes and was just getting comfortable when my phone beeped with a voice mail. It was odd, I thought, that the phone hadn't rang. I picked it up and as the message began to play, I froze in horror… "Hi, my name…
Digital Nomadism
Hating on cubicles is my favorite dead horse to beat. I have held onto the hope that I would never have to go back to one again. That's why it thrills me with joy to write about a positive development in my work life. I've accepted a part-time (4-hours a day) support engineer position that will involve JavaScript programming. It allows me to telecommute. I can live anywhere, so long as I have an internet connection and am available during the work hours. After taxes,…

IT is doubtful too many at noon yesterday - as the Port Adelaide Football Club started its new era on the MCG - would have spared a thought for former Power coach Matthew Primus.
Nor former president Brett Duncanson. Nor former board members such as David Basheer or Alex Panas, whose tireless work in squeezing money out of a rock in a Crows-dominated business world was never widely appreciated.
Time has moved on at Alberton this summer.
But that is the way of this cut-throat professional AFL game. It brings in people, consumes them and leaves others to live in the glory of their unrecognised work.
Ian Dicker saved Hawthorn as club president from 1997-2005 - Jeff Kennett scored the glory with the 2008 AFL premiership.
New Port Adelaide president David Koch has filled the Power with new hope, new energy and new promise.
But he also does not forget those who went before him - and acknowledges men such as Duncanson are unfairly tainted by the nightmares that overcame Alberton in the past three years.
Duncanson picked up a club working off a failed business model, rolled up his sleeves to do the "heavy lifting" to put his club in a modern stadium in the city and led a board that set up much of the discussion papers that took Port's thinking out of the Alberton postcode to set up advisory boards in Sydney and Melbourne ... and a club president in Sydney.
Unfortunately, Duncanson and his board did not have the money to underwrite their decision to appoint Primus as coach after the earlier faux pas with Mark Williams.
How Primus - now at Gold Coast as an assistant coach - watched yesterday's match makes for a fascinating debate.
Did he think how much his task as Power coach would have been easier had he been given a squad prepared by fitness guru Darren Burgess? A long-established AFL coach says Burgess' work alone will improve the Power by 10-15 per cent this season.
How would have Primus' three seasons as Port coach unfolded differently had he worked in a football department with an experienced coaching director as Alan Richardson?
These are Ken Hinkley's blessings at Alberton today.
The Port Adelaide Football Club made some howlers before this summer of change. There is no denying this. But so did Hawthorn before Dicker's regime finally overcame the problems of the mid-1990s to set up a premiership window for Kennett and Alastair Clarkson.
If Koch and his team do the same for Hinkley, there should be a moment to remember Primus, Duncanson, Panas and Basheer. Their commitment and sacrifices seem to have been lost amid the wind of change.
THE "Mad Hatter" of Australian federal politics is planning to take in his manifesto for September's national election a tax break for the AFL's millionaire players.
He argues they deserve a leaner hit on their pockets because they will not be earning big money once they are turfed out of the game.
Katter may find those who are earning no money today and suffering with social services - in particular at hospitals - being deprived tax-based funding look elsewhere on the voting slip on September 14.
AS much as the Port Adelaide key defender says he has changed - and he has made that vow quite often - there might be a very strong argument that it was best for the Power to keep Carlile on edge at Alberton.
Instead, Port has handed the 25-year-old a four-year contract extension that is an extreme vote of confidence in a player who can hardly afford to luxuriate in a comfort zone.
HOW did the AFL boss keep a straight face while telling the guests at the Gold Coast Football Club season launch last week that his league had made a mistake in leaving northern markets to the AFL's rugby rivals in March?
Demetriou could have activated the Suns' Metricon Stadium for the NAB Cup final between Brisbane and Carlton had the AFL wanted to make its presence felt north of the Murray against the opening of the NRL season.
HOW can the SANFL clubs cry poverty while one after the other is put before the SA Football Commission for salary cap cheating?
Too many SANFL clubs live in very fragile glasshouses when they attack the Port Adelaide Football Club for fiscal mismanagement.
And how much of the SANFL game development program is compromised by this salary cap rorting?
FROM the moment Channel Nine's Footy Classified joined the long list of football panel shows in 2007 it defined its way of business by being feisty and opinionated. Considering its 10.30pm start on Monday nights, it could hardly afford to be mundane or tame.
But in recent weeks the resident stirrer, Craig Hutchison, has made the attacks on his co-panelists as genuine as the bruising and battering of World Championship Wrestling in the late 1960s when Mario Milano and Killer Karl Kox were ratings winners for Nine on Sunday afternoons.
ALL praise to the men at Toyota - in particular former Crows and Power board member Robert Hoey - for taking no issue with Renault sponsoring the Port Adelaide Football Club in the Toyota-badged AFL.
Hoey went as far as to redirect his Northpoint Toyota sponsorship at Alberton so as not to put a spanner in the three-year deal with Renault.
Can anyone imagine AFL sponsors Coca-Cola or CUB being so sporting?

The I-94 is the Arrival/Departure Record issued by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) when you enter the United States. Why is the I-94 Arrival-Departure Record Number important? The I-94 helps prove that you entered the United States lawfully. In most cases, a lawful entry is executed with a visa or the the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). (However, there are other means to lawfully enter the United States.) Your I-94 record confirms that you have been legally admitted to the United States in a specific visa status, and for what duration of time. For most applicants, proving that you lawfully entered the U.S. is critical for eligibility to adjust status.
CBP has traditionally issued a paper I-94 that will resemble the sample below.
However, CBP more recently has begun using electronic I-94 records that can be retrieved online on the CBP website. An example is pictured below.
If you are having trouble locating your I-94, go to Where can I find my electronic I-94 record?

In a blog entitled "Inducements and Illusions," Bill Johnson pooh-poohs the potential benefit of the Detroit Promise, an initiative announced by Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan with the cooperation of the Detroit Chamber of Commerce and several business foundations. The program will provide coverage for tuition and fees to any Detroit student who graduates from a public school in Detroit, whether they graduate from a Detroit Public School, (DPS), the Educational Achievement Authority, (EAA), or a public charter.
In the interest of full disclosure, Bill Johnson is my brother, and though I highly respect him, in this instance I vehemently disagree with him. His primary criticism of the Detroit Promise is connected to an initiative launched in 1987; The Detroit Compact, which guaranteed DPS graduates free college tuition (if they attended a Michigan college or university), provided they maintained at least a 2.5 grade point average, 95% attendance, stayed out of trouble, and scored a minimum 21 on the ACT. The program eventually terminated because not enough students met the criteria, particularly the attendance and ACT standard.
While these standards were not unreasonable, intrinsic and cultural inhibitors; transiency, truancy, and socio/economic challenges were without question major contributors to the lack of success. The Detroit Promise is different; Detroit high school students only need to graduate to continue their education at the community college level.
Mr. Johnson's contention that this a "dumbed down" standard, and that Detroit graduates in general are social promotion graduates is an unjust indictment against the determination of these students to graduate, and the educators who put them in the position to do so.
Detroit graduates about 3,000 students each year. There are students who, admittedly, barely squeak by, for a variety of reasons, who without the Detroit Promise would surely believe that the opportunity to attend college was beyond their reach.
Detroit is a city which for years has been plagued by violence, poverty, crime, drugs, and other social ills which have filtered into our schools. There is no question that many students who graduate from Detroit schools are in need of remedial programs, particularly in reading and math, to give them an opportunity to become gainfully employed rather than another statistic.
Many students have never experienced an environment where the focus upon learning is not interrupted by disruption and violence in class. A community college setting will not only provide them with an opportunity to learn in peace, but can provide them additional support and guidance.
For those students who are proficient and college ready, the Detroit Promise affords the opportunity for them to take many of their prerequisite courses at the community college level, gain the college experience, and reduce the cost of their overall college education.
Even with this opportunity, schools in Detroit must address those cultural and intrinsic inhibitors to learning that I previously referenced. School funding from the state has to change; an example which is demonstrating growing success in states where "adequacy funding" predicated upon need has supplanted so-called equal funding, recognizing that due to socio/economic and cultural conditions, it costs more to educate students in one town compared to another. Equal does not mean adequate.
The Detroit Promise is but one step toward providing Detroit graduates with an option, not a guarantee. To do nothing is tantamount to acknowledging these students are destined to a life of depravity.
In the words of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy, "some people see things as they are and ask why, I see things that never were, and ask, why not?' The Detroit Promise supporters have now answered that question and Detroit's children are the winners.
Keith Johnson is a former DPS teacher and retired president of the Detroit Federation of Teachers

This makes Rock Raiyu happy, yes?
I'm pretty excited about this too, it's a shame my PSP was stolen...
Wow, that looks pretty sweet.
Looks similar to Guilty Gear to me, though.
Looks sweet.
Doubt i will be able to play it, with these games i just button bash
also with the problem of not being able to play newer games due to updates
also what is the soundtrack on that video? I wants it
Now that you mention it, he is running. Tager doesn't run.
As cool as this is, playing fighting games on PSP hurts. (At least with the 1000 series D-pad)
Running confirmed for Unlimited Tager
i wish they made a trimmed down version (graphically) for the DS but seems unlikely
looks pretty good too... i wonder how crisis core was made so early and perfectly
can this beat Bleach?

As the fourth largest country by area, China has a massive variety of landscapes ranging from plateaus and deserts to grasslands and mountains. With the country's infrastructure improving all the time, China is a great place for planning some amazing road trips.
Those who pack up their vehicle and hit the road will be rewarded in other ways. Some of the best road trips take travelers to China's hinterlands like Tibet, Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang autonomous regions. In these areas, the distinct cultures and customs of minority groups showcase the country's impressive diversity.
Here's a quick look at some of China's best routes.
Route 1: Chengdu to Shangri-la
Starting from Chengdu in Sichuan and head to Shangri-la in Yunnan, this is a journey covering mostly mountainous terrain and gorgeous valleys.
The ideal route from Chengdu to Shangri-la includes Rilong, Danba, Tagong, Litang and Daocheng.
Xiangcheng County, whose name means beads in the hand of Buddha in Tibetan languages, is a relatively low altitude area in the region. The villages in the area dotted along the Shuoqu River like beads. The locals make good use of it by growing a variety of fruits and other crops.
Yading Scenic Area is worth visiting, time permitting, of course. Some say the snowy peaks stand against the blue sky are incarnations of three bodhisattvas, Chenrezig, Chenadorje and Jampayang watching over their world.
Route 2: Beijing to Xi'an, via Hohhot
Clocking more than 2,000 kilometers, this road trip can be broken down into several sections. It takes roughly 12 days, but travelers can spend more time in places they like. Start in the capital and head to Datong via Jingzang highway, Tanqinxia tunnel, Jingxin highway and Dayun highway. Datong is famous for its Buddhist frescoes.
From there head to Yinchuan in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region along Jingxin highway, the longest stretch of this route at 967 kilometers.
If time permits, take a detour to Hohhot, Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region, to savor the beauty of its vast grassland. In Yinchuan, travelers can get a look at the Yellow River, considered the cradle of Chinese civilization. Motorists will encounter mountain and desert scenery along the way from Yinchuan to Pingliang on Fuyin highway. The final section takes you to Xi'an, an ancient capital. Xi'an is, of course, famous for the terracotta warriors, its Muslim Quarter and ancient city wall. Take a few days to explore the city.
Route 3: Sichuan
Sichuan is a land famous for its pandas, rivers, lakes, beautiful scenery and spectacular mountains.
Travelers can plan on a trip of at least 12 days to cover this route, some of which includes the ancient Tea Horse Road, also known as the south Silk Road. The trading trail exporting tea, salt and Sichuan-style silk works from Sichuan to Tibet starts from Ya'an. The Sichuan city that suffered a 7.0-magnitude earthquake in 2013 has a great production of quality tea leaves from ancient times. Check out the clumsy yet cute pandas at Bifengxia Panda Reserve in Ya'an.
Kangding is a major stop en route. Wait for the sunrise or sunset along the crystalline Muge Lake. Tagong Grassland is at its utmost beauty in spring. The route then runs through Chengdu's vast red land of various shades.
Another highlight includes Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, where travelers can learn about the habits of these cute and lazy bears.
Don't forget to stop at Songgang stone fortress and Sirin Kar Monastery of Kagyupa School near Lianghekou Village.
Other spots include Dege Printing House (Dege Yinjingyuan), Pelyul Monastery and Litang Monastery.
When driving from Yajiang to Danba, gaze in awe at Mount Minya while stopping in Xinduqiao. Its summit is 7,556 meters above sea level although the mountain peak is often obscured by clouds.
There's also Lhagang Monastery, or Tagong Si in Chinese, and views of Mount Zhara Lhatse (5,820 meters) in Tagong.
Route 4: Urumqi to Kashgar, Xinjiang
Feel like an ancient trader as you explore part of the ancient Silk Road and drive on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, which is farther from the ocean than any other desert in the world.
Start in Urumqi, capital city of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and head east to Turpan on highway 314. From here, head west to the Taklamakan, the largest shifting sand desert in the world, toward Kashgar. This section on the northern edge of the desert was once part of the Silk Road. Travelers can stop in Yopurga, whose county is about 76 kilometers from Kashgar, and take a camel trek through the desert.
The Silk Road was primarily a trading route between China and the West, but it also led to cultural exchanges. Over the course of 2,000 years, countless merchants, caravans, wandering armies and adventurers have left their marks on this incredible route.
Conclude the journey in Kashgar, China's western most city close to the border with Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Kashgar's Old City is a good example of a traditional Islamic town. Id Kah Mosque is the country's largest and there is a 12.26-meter-tall statue of Chairman Mao Zedong.
Route 5: Guizhou to Guangxi
About eight days is needed to cover this route wandering in mountains from Guizhou Province to the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Starting in Guiyang, the provincial capital of Guizhou Province, highlights of this route include the chance to visit small villages of different ethnic minorities and the odd karst formations often found in the southwest region of China.
The first day takes you from Guiyang to Kaili, home of Xijiang Village, the biggest Miao ethnic village in the country. Then drive up Mount Leigong to Rongjiang and stop for the night.
The next day starts with a drive to Congjiang in the morning to visit Basa Miao People's Village. Check out the local products as they may make great souvenirs of the trip. The various villages have different traditions and customs. Villagers living in these places haven't changed much over the centuries as they have little communication with the outside world.
Next up is Gaozheng for more intriguing villages and Zhaoxing, before venturing to Guilin, Guangxi. The Wind and Rain Bridge, a signature kind of covered bridge built by Dong minority in Chengyang is an amazing piece of architecture with several traditional Chinese bridge houses along the span. Locals use the bridge houses for public events.
After getting your bearings in Guilin, take a boat to Yangshuo, a famous haunt among backpackers craving for a laid-back vibe. Yangshuo is also renowned for karst landscape views and many find a bike tour in the area very rewarding.
While driving across Guizhou, bear in mind the province is home to 6,000 species of wild plants. More than 500 species are edible and about 3,900 are considered medicinal plants.
Route 6: Around Beijing
Beijing makes a great base for a series of one or two-day road trips containing a good deal of surprises.
Chengde is a pleasant hilly area with many rivers. Chengde summer palace is a former imperial garden, the largest still in existence, and is surrounded by temples.
Chengde is some 200 kilometers' drive from Beijing.
Yudu Mountain
This 90-minute drive from Beijing Badaling highway brings travelers to Yanqing County, which is famous for its mountain scenery, including Yudu Mountain. Other recommended scenic spots include Northwest Ditch and Southwest Ditch, Lujia River, Wulipo and Sancha River Valley.
Jinshanling Great Wall
There are numerous sections of the Great Wall to see around Beijing. The Jinshanling section is 130 kilometers from the downtown Beijing and can be reached by taking highway G45.
Once arriving, plan on spending at least half a day clambering about the Great Wall. This section is on the border of Hebei Province and stretches 10.5 kilometers from Wangjing Tower to Gubei Pass, a key fortress between Shanhai Pass and Juyong Pass of the wall. The wall wriggles its way up, down and around the mountains. With a bit of luck, you'll get a clear sky for some amazing pictures.

There's a whole lot of confusion about them, however actually, they don't seem to be that tough to know or comply with! Much like the 10 12 months olds in the year 1911, at present's 10 year olds will both be affected by know-how change or they will be the instruments of that change. I really feel that all of this technology and many others, has caused us to actually lose contact of the simple things. The second critique that is typically used is that McLuhan's views represent a utopic view of know-how that he perhaps appears to be like just for probably the most optimistic impacts that it has. LG presents the product as a breakthrough in know-how on their LCD But what is maybe equally important: a big step within the manufacturing prices. As a lot as the computer technology has advanced, so too has printer expertise.
Exciter is a magazine theme that turns WordPress into an online newspaper that showcases many articles at once (subsequently, it really works finest solely if in case you have a decent amount of content being created regularly). People are self employed right this moment because expertise performs its function to make that attainable. I even have a variety of affiliate web sites that have constantly pulled income and allowed my household to do and experience more than we otherwise would.
On November 14th, 2015 ex-boxer and MMA fighter Holly Holm handed Ronda her first professional loss. No doubt homeowners of WordPress websites will discover 5 plugins to solve their issues, and Hubpages will turn out to be more and more cellular pleasant if wanted. Technology has also had its hand in serving to us find cures for disease, and preserve the sick alive. The use of money counting machines, screens, Automated Teller Machines, Computers, digital banking, Pens, and books are all merchandise of science and know-how.
The major purpose I rarely learn the paper now's as a result of the cost has skyrocketed, and the newspaper itself is merely just a few pages; hardly worth the cost of the print. Its extremely exhausting to make something out of nothing but coming across articles like this are inspirational. The cultural domination of expertise right this moment is regularly facilitated by the language by which we discuss the presence of know-how in our society, and that language set clearly the vary of questions about know-how and its roles that can be allowed.

Local business owner Richard Lays to seek GF City Council seat in Ward 7
Shuttle bus company owner Richard Lays has declared his intention to seek the Ward 7 seat on the Grand Forks City Council.
Lays, 38, outlined a platform based on fiscal responsibility. He described opposition to a potential city sales tax increase and advocates for changing where local road dollars are spent in the city -- a portion of North 42nd Street is just one part of town that needs work, he said.
"I think we pay enough taxes here. We need to trim the fat a little bit," he said, criticizing the long list of projects city leaders hope to pay for with the tax's increased revenue boost. "We have big dreams, but we don't have the budgets to fill those dreams."
Lays is a native of the Chicago area and graduated from UND in 2002 with a bachelor's degree in psychology; during his college years, he was a member of the school's football team. He owns and operates a company called Skitchy's Shuttle Service in Grand Forks, which he founded this past fall, and has spent time as a stay-at-home father for his three young children. His wife, Andrea, is an obstetrician-gynecologist at Altru Hospital in Grand Forks, and he is applying for graduate programs in public health.
Lays noted that he is a supporter of building a new public library near Grand Cities Mall, a project he said could be expanded to include an "arts center" in the city. He said he hopes the primary source of funding for it will be from donations.
Lays added he also hopes to spend more on fire and police personnel for the city, as well as start a campaign to get more local residents using the Nextdoor app—a kind of neighborhood-centric social media program—for safety purposes.
Ward 7 includes a central, suburban area in Grand Forks, and lies between South 20th Street and South 42nd Street. It is represented by Ken Vein, who is seeking re-election.
"I haven't heard any bad things, I haven't heard any good things about Ken," Lays said, declining to offer further comment on his opponent.
"I want to bring common sense back to City Council decision-making. ... I think we waste too much time (forming) committees, which create roadblocks to community growth," Lays wrote in a news release. "I will give the City Council fresh insight and new ideas. Grand Forks is a nice community, but I think we can make it great."
Meet Richard Lays
Age: 38
Address: 1200 Block of S. 36th St. in Grand Forks.
Professional experience: Stay-at-home father; owner of Skitchy's Shuttle Service, which was founded in 2015; previous experience as a sales representative for a Stone Design, Inc. in Chicago during the 2000s.
Political Experience: N/A.
Community Involvement: Master mason and member of the Kem Shrine in Grand Forks; member, Holy Family Catholic Church.
Education: St. Viator High School in Chicago area, 1995; Psychology degree from UND, 2002

Why should voters choose you? "I think I'm a realist. I'm a common man, and I want to live within our means, and I'd be a new voice for the community."


text: Hello: I'm having issues with the market. I've tried to download several apps and updates over the last couple of days, but they are stalled on the "downloading" stage. Running droid mod 1.0, I've reflashed and it's not making things better. I had this issue on my Eris once but I can't recall what the solution was. I've tried clearing cache but that's not working either. Any ideas?

Last night at about 12:30, I thought I heard a strange noise coming from the bathroom. As usual, instead of getting up to investigate I said to my husband, "Do you hear that?" Of course, he didn't. "Seriously, do you hear that?" I asked again, but he was completely uninterested so I knew I'd have to go investigate it for myself.
The noise was coming from the bathroom. It sounded like someone had left the sink running. When I opened the bathroom door there was a pool of water on the floor and the toilet tank was overflowing. "Help," I yelled and my husband came rushing in to see our toilet which had suddenly transformed itself into Victoria Falls. After briefly considering how much I might be able to charge people to see the wonder that our toilet had become, we sprang into action.
When we removed the lid from the tank we saw that the pipe that fills up the tank had water gushing out of it at an incredible speed. I flushed the toilet to empty the tank and within a few seconds it was full again. I just sat there flushing the toilet again and again and asking my husband what we should do. Unlike normal toilets, our toilet has no shut off valve.
My husband stuck his finger in the pipe which of course sprayed water all over us. If that had indeed stopped the water, I wonder if he would've sat there all night with his finger in the pipe.
The only way to turn off the water to our flat is by uncovering a hole on the sidewalk and reaching your arm all the way down the hole to turn off the valve with a screwdriver. Eventually, my husband did that, but the problem with doing that is that it shuts off the water for the whole building. That means the people who live upstairs don't have any water either. Not so good, huh?
Our plumbing problems were fixed this morning. Not only did the plumber fix the toilet, but he put a valve in the pipe that leads to the toilet so we can turn off the water if we need to. But, this experience left me wondering something. Why do toilets run for so long when the tanks can be filled within a few seconds? Wouldn't be nicer if the tank filled more quickly? I think I'm on to something here. Maybe I should get into the toilet making business.

'My life matter.'
In Tuesday's Nightline, rapper Lil Wayne dismissed every aspect of the Black Lives Matter movement.
In a sit-down interview with Linsey Davis, Weezy was asked about his feelings on Black Lives Matter. He seemed confused equally by the question and the concept.
"That just sounds weird, I don't know, that you put a name on it. It's not a name, it's not 'whatever, whatever,' it's somebody got shot by a policeman for a fucked up reason."
He went on to assert that, given his fame and wealth, he's proof that black lives matters:
I am a young black rich motherfucker. If that don't let you know that America understand black motherfuckers matter these days, I don't know what it is. That man white; he filmin' me. I'm a nigga.
I don't know what you mean, man, don't come at me with that dumb ass shit, ma'am. My life matter. Especially to my bitches.
The interview drew immediate backlash on Twitter.
Honestly, I don't what anyone expected. Talking social politics with Lil Wayne is like asking a Magic 8-Ball for the weather. No matter how many times you try, chances are slim that you'll get anything resembling a coherent response.
Pitchfork reports that Lil Wayne ultimately walked out of the interview before the program ended, saying, "I ain't no fuckin' politician."
Update 4:19pm CT, Nov. 2: In an interview with TMZ, Lil Wayne apologized for the interview, and walked back his dismissive attitude toward Black Lives Matter.
"When the reporter began asking me questions about my daughter being labeled a bitch and a hoe, I got agitated. From there, there was no thought put into her questions and my responses," Wayne told TMZ.
Correction: An earlier version of this story misidentified the show Lil Wayne appeared on. The interview was for NBC's Nightline.

When Jony Ive ousted Scott Forstall as Design King of iOS, he made a lot of changes, most of them for the better. One of the tinier — and for the worse — changes, though, was removing the 'Now Playing' icon from the iOS 7 status bar. Now a new jailbreak tweaks brings it back.
New Tweak Fixes Your Broken Status Bar After Jailbreaking [Jailbreak]
A large number of users have reported issues with a problematic status bar in iOS immediately following a jailbreak.
While it's hardly the biggest issue for a liberated iOS device to encounter, having the carrier name, signal status and remaining battery turn from white to black — or sometimes not vanish when it's supposed to — while using certain apps can be both annoying and overall detrimental to user experience. Thanks to a straightforward resolution , however, that issue can now be sorted out in the form of a Cydia package installation by following these steps:
Don't Like iOS 6's Colorful Status Bars? Install The AntiTint Tweak To Kill Them [Jailbreak]
Apple added a nifty new feature to iOS 6 that adds a splash of color to the status bar. Rather than being just black or silver, the status bar now changes to match the color scheme of the app you're running. In Skype, for example, it goes bright blue, while in the eBay app it goes grey.
I'm a big fan of this feature, but I know a lot of users don't. With that said, if you'd like to kill it, you'll be delighted to hear there's a new tweak for jailbroken devices that does just that.
With CoverMeNot, Banner Notifications Stay Out Of The Way By Doubling The Height Of Your iOS Status Bar [Jailbreak]
Sometimes a jailbreak tweak comes along that is so subtle and yet so brilliant. Banner notifications in iOS are great, but Apple made a poor design choice: incoming banners push in on the top of whatever app you're using at the moment. If you're using Safari, the address/search bar is momentarily obscured by a banner notification. That's no good.
A new Cydia tweak called CoverMeNot keeps banner notifications out of the way by automatically doubling the height of your iOS status bar. No more obtrusive banners covering the top of your favorite apps.
How iOS 6's Cool New Adaptive Status Bar Works
As we detailed in another post earlier this week, Apple's new iOS 6 beta features a nifty new status bar that changes color to match the app you're currently running. We provided a number of screenshots that showed the status bar in three different shades of blue, and in silver — colors the status bar never displayed in iOS 5.
So how does the status bar determine which color to use? Well, it's actually pretty simple.
In iOS 6, The Status Bar Changes Color To Match The App You're Running
We've already shown you a whole host of new iOS 6 features that Apple didn't get time to mention during its WWDC keynote yesterday, and here's another one. In fact, this is probably one of the coolest in the bunch. Notice how the status bar above certain stock apps — like Settings or Mail — is now blue? Well, that actually changes color to match the theme of the app you're running.
How to Hide Carrier Name In Your iPhone's Status Bar [Jailbreak]
Whenever I share a screenshot of my jailbroken iPhone the number one question I'm always asked is, "How did you get rid of your carrier name like that??" The answer is actually a very simple one, as there are a host of Cydia tweaks that will let you hide your iPhone's carrier name and other status bar elements.
If you're itching to clean up your own status bar, here's what you need.

Triangle Modernist Houses recently posted a note about a Lustron home in Nasheville, NC that was for sale and facing demolition so that the land it was on could be used as a parking lot. It mentioned that Lustron's were a prefab home produced in the 50's made of steel and porcelain coated steel. This made me curious...and so I looked into it! They were produced in response to a housing shortage after WWII and were built to be to be maintenance free and affordable (around $7,000.00).

I have been researching design that uses ephemeral materials. This can include, biodegradable, temporary, edible, and unusual materials. Material choice cannot help but inform the meaning of a final product or project. I am interested in the ways that these materials can evoke memory and how their temporary and changing properties can serve as momento mori (reminder of death). By default or on purpose these materials are exceptionally sustainable.

I was fortunate enough to have my mock interview with Mike Cindric, Project Manager at Design Dimensions. I was not previously familiar with Design Dimensions. I found out that they do custom fabrication, exhibit design, and all sorts of other special projects (like the enclosure for Watson, the computer on Jeopardy). I was excited to hear about their focus on fabrication because physically making things is important to me and is something that I hope to incorporate into my career. Mr. Cindric spoke to me about his background in art and sculpture and how it had led him to become involved with Design Dimensions through a search for studio space. I shared my background in art, also sculpture, that included my time as a student at UNC Chapel Hill where Mr. Cindric had taught art. I also found out that Mr. Cindric had partnered with Vinny Petrarca of Tonic Design on the Lowes Pavilion at the North Carolina Museum of Art. I am a fan of Tonic's work and was especially intrigued with this collaboration. I had seen the pavilion online and this meeting only increased my desire to see it in person.
