Infinity walls create the illusion of levitating objects by eliminating shadows and corners. To use them, simply position your subjects in front of a monochromatic (generally white) background with curved edges to obscure where the floor ends and the walls begin.
Also known as cyclorama walls, or cyc for short, infinity walls are very useful for engineering minimalist backdrops, generating cool optical tricks or creating the illusion of endless space within a confined environment. The construction is simple; all corners are rounded to eliminate shadows and allow for a seamless transition from space to space.
Those iconic Apple commercials you love? They're shot against infinity walls to detract from anything but the product. Would an iPhone still look as gorgeous in a cluttered environment? Probably not! Infinity walls are all about making the object or subject matter stand out by muting everything else. Less focus on the background means more focus on your product or subject.
It's an easy idea with dramatic results. You don't need an iPhone or a Mac to test it. Put a colorful artisan vase in front of an infinity wall and see how the stark background really emphasizes its elegance and makes the hues pop. With no shadows or competing colors to distract the eye, the vase is the only focal point, making it more desirable.
Infinity walls are completely versatile. You can create a single infinity wall or span across several walls depending on your needs. Some White Cyc Studios design entire corner-less rooms to devise the illusion of limitless space.
You can make the effect yourself with a white backdrop pulled taut in a curve over the floor. Simply tether it to the ceiling and anchor it to the floor. It can get wrinkled and look sloppy if you're not careful, so if you want to get a little fancier and have the carpentry skills, do some DIY construction. There are plenty of online tutorials for a more permanent infinity wall. If you're serious about photography or videography, it might be in your best interest to take a weekend and construct your own.
For the most professional option and shoot, you need to visit a reputable White Cyc Studio. Find a place that routinely and meticulously paints its walls because every scuff, stain, and mark on an infinity wall will stand out in your shoot. As with every studio, soundproofing is key. Make sure the studio has good lighting and a comfortable place for you and your crew to set up shop. Do your homework and you'll be pleasantly surprised by the results.
Infinity walls are usually white, but they can be tinted and modified to reflect any color. You don't need to be a professional photographer to have truly inspired photo shoots with elegant collections of items. What about some sophisticated silver jewelry against a deep blue or black background? You can project backgrounds too, either during the shoot or afterward. Get creative and experiment to see what works best for you.
Infinity Walls Explained
Infinity walls create the illusion of levitating objects by eliminating shadows and corners. To use them, simply position your subjects in front of a monochromatic (generally white) background with curved edges to obscure where the floor ends and the walls begin.

In Short
The Decision: The French Cour de cassation, in a case concerning a dosage regime patent, recently clarified the "plausibility" requirement, an element of sufficiency of disclosure or inventive step.
The Result: The wording of the Cour de cassation's decision creates a stringent plausibility requirement, but this decision was issued in relation to a patent claiming a specific administration mode and dosage, and a far less stringent plausibility requirement has been applied by lower courts in matters regarding other types of claims, in particular pure product or compound claims with no functional features.
The Requirement of Plausibility
The requirement for plausibility is not based in legislation, yet in Europe, a body of case law has created this requirement to distinguish those applications that actually do demonstrate a technical effect from purely speculative patents. The plausibility of the technical effect as set out in the patent also affects the patentee's ability to rely on experimental results available only after the filing date, for proving that a technical problem has indeed been solved.
The emergence of the concept of plausibility in relation to each of inventive step, sufficiency, and industrial applicability is now often invoked in the life sciences sector, where claimed technical effects are often not self-evident. In France, the requirement of plausibility has been examined under both sufficiency and inventive step.
The Plausibility Requirement Assessed by French Courts
In its decision of December 6, 2017, the Cour de cassation, France's highest civil court, clarified the outlines of the plausibility requirement when applied to second medical use claims and, more particularly, to dosage claims. This decision was rendered against a decision of the Court of Appeal of Paris of January 30, 2015, which held that European Patent No. 0 724 444 was invalid for insufficiency.
The European Patent at stake, "Method of treating androgenic alopecia with 5-alpha reductase inhibitors," comprised three claims directed to low-dosage oral administration of finasteride to treat androgenic alopecia in humans; Claim 1 was a "Swiss-type claim." Prior art included patents covering different ways of administering finasteride (topical or systemic) and for higher doses.
The Court of Appeal's January 30, 2015, Decision
In its decision, the Court of Appeal ruled that "although it is not required to clinically demonstrate the therapeutic...

BOSTON — Another day, another overtime win for the Bruins.
The B's went down late in the first period to the Colorado Avalanche, but were able to recover in the following frame. The game remained tied until Brad Marchand sealed the 2-1 overtime victory in the final minute of the 3-on-3 session at TD Garden on Sunday afternoon.
John Moore scored the Bruins' lone regulation goal, while Nathan MacKinnon had Colorado's only tally. The Avs now have lost seven straight while Boston has won four of its last five.
Jaroslav Halak stopped 35 of 36 shots, while Semyon Varlamov turned away 34.
With the win, the Bruins improved to 31-17-8, while the Avalanche slipped to 22-22-11.
Here's how it all went down:
It looked as if the opening 20 minutes were going to remain scoreless, but MacKinnon changed that with 32 seconds remaining.
Boston successfully killed off a Danton Heinen high-sticking penalty before the B's went on their own power play when Gabriel Landeskog was sent off for hooking with 3:41 left in the first period. The team had some ample scoring opportunities, but couldn't beat Varlamov.
The two teams played 4-on-4 when Torey Krug was called for a hooking penalty and Colorado went on the man-advantage for just over a minute. With the clock winding down, MacKinnon unleashed a beautiful snipe to the top corner that Halak had no chance at to give the visitors a 1-0 edge.
Colorado outshot Boston 12-7.
The Black and Gold responded 3:40 into the second period thanks to Moore.
Charlie McAvoy laid a huge hit on Matt Nieto to begin the play and Moore was able to wrist the puck off the post and into the net to even things at one apiece. A small skirmish broke out after the goal, but the officials broke it up before it could escalate further.
Old friend Carl Soderberg went to the box for interference and Colorado and Boston went 4-on-4 briefly before the B's went on the power play. Halak made a huge stop on MacKinnon breakaway out of the box to keep the game tied at one.
It looked as if Moore gave his team the lead with 24 seconds remaining, but the refs ruled the goal no good after Moore beat Varlamov from center ice. The puck hit off the curved glass by the Bruins' bench — making it out of play — before reaching the net.
The Avalanche and Bruins headed into the final 20 minutes tied at one, with Colorado holding a slim shot advantage 24-22.
Boston was forced to kill off two penalties, but just 14 seconds in its second one, the Avs were whistled for holding and the game went to 4-on-4 for 1:46. Neither team would net the go-ahead goal before going back to 5-on-5 action.
Colorado missed a wide open net with just over five minutes to play and the B's had an ample opportunity to put the game away when they went on the power play with 2:15 remaining in the game.
Despite controlling the puck for a majority of the two minutes, Boston couldn't seal the deal and would need extra time to decide the winner.
Marchand lifted the B's to victory with his overtime goal with 57 seconds remaining in sudden death.
The Bruins continue their homestand Tuesday night with a tilt against the Chicago Blackhawks in a Winter Classic rematch. Puck drop from TD Garden is set for 7 p.m. ET.

In 1954, the man who ran security for the Sacramento Crusade saw a high-priced hooker sneak into Billy Graham's room prior to him going out for the Crusade. Billy Graham and this high priced hooker were alone together in the room, It is this type of thing that has opened Billy Graham up to blackmail. Should Graham ever try to stray from the proper course set for him by the Illuminati, they have plenty of ammunition to blackmail him. (You may ask why would the Satanists from generational satanic families want to intimidate Billy Graham with fear? Why, isn't he from a generational satanic family? The answer is that the whole Satanic system operates off of fear. Intimidation & fear are standard everyday parts of their makeup and actions. Sort of the counterpart to the saying there is no honor among thieves. The Satanic hierarchy are in constant intimidation and power struggles.)
When Billy Graham wanted to, he could call up Henry Kissinger and say, "Tell him to call me the minute he comes in." (Frady, p. 451) Henry Kissinger is right in the middle of what the Illuminati is doing. Another Illuminatus that Graham had a working relationship with is Henry Luce, friend of the Baruchs. Luce and Billy Graham spent several nights staying up talking late into the night. Knowing how the Illuminati work, it is very safe to assume that they have pushed Billy Graham into further degenerate acts. They have probably done everything they can to pervert Billy Graham, so there is no telling what sexual sins remain hidden.
Kissinger is a member of P2 Freemasonry. If we were to assume that Billy Graham were not involved (and that is a big IF since we know that he is), then if one studies P2 Masonic recruiting tactics given in the book In God's Name, p. 116, then the reader will grasp that anyone of Billy Graham's stature who associates so freely with P2 Freemasons will be targeted and blackmailed and forced to join. Once they join, new members are forced to compromise other possible targets.
Billy Graham is part of the people who implement the Monarch program (which was a joint Illuminati/CIA total mind control program done to people). We know that he is serviced by Monarch sexual slaves (their kitten alters). It is very easy for the network to keep these poor victims (Monarch slaves) from talking, and so the full extent of much of what has gone on may not come out in our lifetimes.
Another possible clue about Billy Graham's hidden life comes from Billy Graham himself. Do the readers remember how Jimmy Swaggert would disguise himself with sun glasses, etc. and his staff helped him carry out what he in part confessed? In Hollywood, FL (yes, FL!) Billy Graham said that he "often attends loveins and rock festivals incognito by putting on a false mustache and beard." He also said he found the experience in doing that kind of thing "refreshing." This story was in the Chicago Daily News, Dec. 29, 1969. The article's purpose appears to have been to make Billy Graham look hip to today's rock and roll crowds of teenagers.
Billy Graham described his friendship with Alan Dulles, "I make every effort not to let it appear that I favor one party over another. I count Secretary Dulles a friend, but Senator Humphrey is also a good friend of mine, [who he met] ... when we were both swimming nude at the YMCA pool in Minneapolis where he was running for mayor."
A friendship with Alan Dulles? Alan Dulles, director of the CIA, was one of the biggest perpetrators of the trauma-based mind-control that this book is about. Humphrey also received orders from the Satanic hierarchy.
And what is this swimming in nude? When Billy Graham had his 1954 Crusade, large sums of the money came directly from people in the Illuminati, the Whitneys, the Vanderbilts, the Rockefellers, and Chase Manhattan. Billy Graham has numerous times attended Hollywood cocktail parties. Just two examples of which are: one given by Debbie Reynolds, and another one which was a cocktail party for Hollywood stars put on by Nixon at his San Clemente, CA home on a Sunday evening.
Billy Graham's schedule is filled with activities such as playing golf with people who are in the Illuminati, or are Hollywood types. The full impact of this constant fellowshipping with darkness is hard for people to grasp, because they picture that Graham is an evangelist and so therefore he must go where the sinners are. There is an expression, show me a man' s friends and I'll tell you about him. It's one thing to spend time with evil to give it a chance to repent and come to the light, It is another to fellowship with evil and allow it to remain in darkness.
Let us quote from a neutral source, a group who had been investigating the role of church and state. They were trying to determine for their study whether Billy Graham has had an impact on all the Presidents from Eisenhower to Clinton, This study was not pro or anti Graham, It was simply trying to determine what impact this religious leader is having on political leaders.
Billy Graham has spent a lot of time with all the Presidents, so their question was "has Billy Graham had some type of impact?" Their conclusion printed in the Journal of Church and State concludes, .. . .could Graham speak the word of truth - especially when that word may be critical or slashing -to the man in the White House when he is on such friendly terms with him? On the basis of the evidence now available, the answer must be no."
What a person does on his free time is said to be revealing. Christ did spend his time with sinners, but he called them to repentance. In all my study of Billy Graham, I haven't seen any of the Hollywood movie stars or politicians change their lifestyles by their association with Billy Graham. A number of "conversions" have been artificially created, and given widespread publicity by the press. Pat Boone is the type of close friend of Billy Graham that perhaps typifies Billy Graham. He is someone well-received by the public. Billy Graham has enjoyed using him in Crusades. Pat Boone continued playing in Playboy type night clubs while he was singing at Billy Graham Crusades. Pat Boone who is pro-jewish, may be jewish, because the State of Israel has given him some special positions. There is nothing wrong with having ,,jewish blood", it just explains some of his connections.
The Nugen Hand Bank was a CIA operation that laundered money, and did many illegal activities. Pat Boone was part of the Nugen Hand Bank scandal. Exactly how deep he was involved with the CIA's dirty dealing is unclear. Pat Boone's daughter Debbie Boone made a hit out of the song ,,You Light Up My Life", the words of the song were written by a woman who worshipped Lucifer and wrote the song to Lucifer.
Billy Graham has placed the emphasis in his Crusades on putting liberals, even Catholic priests, up on the platform with himself. When does Billy Graham ever spend time with solid devout Christians? Every time Billy Graham went to Moscow he tried to avoid the devout Christians of the unregistered churches who unwittingly tried unsuccessfully to meet with Graham. Instead, he would meet with the heads of the Orthodox Church, which, since all the changes in Russia, are now proven to have been KGB agents--although most of us had suspected that all along from the type of things they said and did. How naive can Christians get? Do they really think that the Illuminati is going to let a legitimately powerful anointed Christian evangelist have regular access to their people? Don't Christians realize that if he was a real threat--someone who might really bring one of the top elite to Christ that they would be assassinating him, not wining and dining him.
"BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS, WHICH COME TO YOU IN SHEEP CLOThING, BUT INWARDLY THEY ARE RAVENING WOLVES." Mt. 7:15
--"BEHOLD, I AM SENDING YOU FORTH AS LAMBS AMONG WOLVES." Lk. 10:3
The Apostle Paul warned Christian leaders,
"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Spirit hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock." Acts 20:28-29
Bill Clinton, some senators, and Billy Graham's son Ned E. Graham invited the leaders of the Chinese house churches to a prayer breakfast in Washington D.C. Three delegates from the Three Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM) and 3 others from house churches were invited, Lin Xian-Gao, Li Tian-En, and Yuan Xiang-Chen. Rev. Ned Graham visited these chinese in person to extend the U.S. government's invitation. Graham told the chinese Christians that the government would pick up the entire tab for the breakfast. In return the U.S. government wanted the Christians to promise not to speak to the American press or to any Americans comments that might hurt the image of the Red Chinese government. The Chinese government had promised the American government that they would guarantee safe entry and departure for these house church Christian leaders. Then after the meeting, they were invited to Billy Graham's house.
The Chinese christians declined the invitation by Graham. Chinese pastor Lin said,
"If I went to the United States, I would tell the truth, not lies. To tell the truth would definitely be considered an act of damaging the image of the Chinese government which would create a pretext for the government to refuse my re-entry into China. But my commission from God is to serve Him faithfully in China only. Therefore, I choose to remain in China rather than to go abroad."
Ned Graham (Billy's son) tried to talk the Chinese into coming, "I know that you surely do love your enemies, why then can you not compromise..." The pastor answered, "Yes, we can forgive our enemies for persecuting or opposing us in their ignorance, but we can never love the false prophets or their heresy."' Ned also said, "It is a glorious and dignified thing to be invited by President Clinton. Many people seek it, but cannot obtain it.
Fortunately, the Chinese did not buy it. (This info and quote comes from China The Untold Story by The Voice of the Martyrs, Inc., 1995. pp. 25-31)
There is another area of Billy Graham that we will only touch on. In one of Fritz's '92 newsletter, Billy Graham is quoted stating that he thought UFOs were angels of God. On either Jan. 28 or 29th (See Smyma, Feb. '93, p.3), Billy Graham was interviewed on television by David Frost. Billy Graham said he believed people in heaven are sent by God to other worlds to help them in redemption of life.
This is edging somewhat close to what the Mormons believe, that "Christians" (that is Mormons) will each receive their own planet to be god of. In another show, Graham said he wanted to evangelize other planets.
Fritz has repeatedly tried to warn Christians of the many demonic dangers associated with the entire UFO phenomena, and the Satanic Hierarchy's connection to UFOs. Billy Graham's idea that UFOs are good angels is a dangerous idea.
Billy Graham was given the contrived artificial image of being a great anti-Satanist. At the Chicago Crusade, 200 Satanists stood up in the crowds. Mayor Daily of Chicago then said from the stand, Billy we have 200 Satanists that want to disrupt your meeting shall I arrest them? What shall I do? And Billy said, No let's sing a song. The crowd sang a song and the Satanists left the stadium on their own. The whole affair was clearly staged and hokey, but Christians are very naive about Satanism and Billy Graham. This further confirmed to them that Billy Graham was a great anointed man of God.
First, hard core Satanists don't show their faces in public. Second, the Mayor of Chicago is not against the Satanists, he works with them, and there are reasons to suspect he is one. Third, Satanists, who do show themselves in public like Anton LaVey, want good publicity and would not carry out something like pretending to want to disrupt a Billy Graham crusade. Fourth, if a real threat had existed, Mayor Daily and the police wouldn't be asking Billy Graham what to do, they would be taking care of the problem. The police don't need to ask for permission to take care of troublemakers at the Crusade.
Christians accepted this episode at its face value. Those who did clearly show the common church goer's poor understanding of those who seek to control and destroy the church.
How Billy Graham Plays a Key Role in Reprogramming Monarch Slaves
Two different talkative Satanists told sources of mine about 2 different coven meetings here in Portland in the Summer of 1993 where the covens discussed the benefits that the satanists were going to get from the Billy Graham Crusade. I know one of the benefits for the satanists was that Monarch programees who had become Christians and had deactivated the effect of their mind-control programming were to be reprogrammed with Billy Graham' s help.
When Billy Graham arrived in town, someone on his Crusade staff had managed to find and send out invitations to many of the survivors of Satanic ritual abuse (SRA) in Portland to come to a special meeting to personally meet with Billy Graham. At this special meeting with SRA victims, Billy Graham personally began saying the buzz words to reactivate these people's programming, especially the Monarch survivors. (This comes from several witnesses.)
For a number of years now, the Billy Graham Crusade has been putting messages across the bottom of television screens that has activation codes for Monarch survivors. Those Monarch survivors who have become devote Christians to escape the nightmare of the Monarch mind-control are often not aware of the danger of watching the Billy Graham Crusade on television.
When people are activated, special people are in the area and they take the Monarch survivors to what are called Near Death Trauma Centers. These centers are used then to reprogram these poor people. There were five in this area, of which we located 2 and forced them to move their sites.
Religious fronts (denominations, individual churches and certain ministers) are used to hide criminal activity. Billy Graham, who is a programmed multiple himself, is exceptionally adept at managing his Monarch kittens. The drug money laundered through his crusades is carefully handled by many Monarch slaves working in shifts and teams, so that the whole scheme can not be uncovered by catching one person. Billy Graham runs big operations all over the world under the disguise of evangelism.
Another of the countless religious covers, that works with the Network's/Illuminati's drug activities involves the Mormon Bishop warehouses, which are used to store cocaine. Monarch slaves are involved with this. Different religious labels hide the same criminal Network. By the way, when giving the Patriarchal Blessing, the Mormon Patriarch if he has a Monarch slave will use hypnosis and triggers to convince the person what their future will be like. One can't say this is happening in every case, but it is very widespread for the Patriarch who give these blessings to be part of the Trauma-based mind-control operations.

Liz Brown can be easily identified by her British nurse uniform. She is a Registered General Nurse (RGN) in the UK as well as being, as far as she is aware, the only Briton registered with the Colegio Oficial de Enfermería in Malaga.
"It was a very long process to get registered here in Malaga," explains Liz , who had wanted to be a nurse since she was three. She adds that she got some "funny looks" at the beginning, but now that she goes to the same hospital and health centres as an interpreter, she is well-known among staff.
The nurse, who specialises in care for the elderly, has lived in the village of Cómpeta with her 18-year-old son, George, for ten years and has been registered as a nurse in Malaga for three. For a number of years Liz was travelling back and forth to continue working at the University Hospital of Lancaster. She also ran private residential and nursing homes as well as a community care service in the north west of England.
However, inevitably this became exhausting and complicated, so she decided that she and George, who has Asperger's, would live in Spain permanently. The pair were already very familiar with the country as they had been coming on holiday since George was two.
Liz wanted to continue in a field she knew well and recognised a demand for English-speaking carers on the eastern Costa del Sol: "There is an increasing population of aging foreign people here who don't have family or partners to care for them."
The experienced nurse describes cases of elderly Brits who were returning to the UK in the hope that they would get the help they required through the NHS. "People just think that they will fall back into the system but the NHS is extremely stretched and the care is basic and it's definitely not the case that they will receive what they expect to."
What's more, according to Liz, while the Spanish social security system runs in a similar way to the UK's NHS, there are some stark differences. "The home care service here is even more limited than in the UK, but the service is more efficient with less waste," she says, also explaining that Spanish families tend to be more involved in patient care whereas in the UK there is an understanding that hospitals will provide all the care.
A network of carers
Since Liz started working full-time in the Axarquía under the banner of 'The English Nurse' (she works mainly in Nerja as that is where the biggest British population is based in the east of Malaga), she has taken on 14 carers to help manage the workload. All carers have English as a first language but most speak a good degree of Spanish and or other languages.
"It is important to speak English as people want to be able to communicate in their own language, or a language they are very comfortable in when they are not well and carers need to be able to pick up colloquial English and accents," Liz says, adding that all carers have a UK NVQ qualification in care work.
The English Nurse has more plans for the future which include the creation of an appliance which patients can plug into a socket at home which sends a message to the carer's mobile phone to let them know that they are up and about each morning. "Many people live on their own and don't want to have to rely on neighbours to check that they are OK every day," explains Liz, who plans to train more carers in autumn to meet the growing demand for her service, as well as offering a holiday home-cum-respite care for people who are not in permanent residential care.

Photos: Bangkok's look-alike, India's first floating market opens in Kolkata
Jan 30, 2018 16:52 IST
The Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority (KMDA) has set up India's first floating market which runs solely out of boats at the lake in Patuli, where vendors sell fruits, vegetables, fish among other produce. On January 24, 2018 chief minister Mamata Banerjee officially inaugurated this market as a rehabilitation package for vendors who were displaced from Baisnabghata-Patuli market for extension work on the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)

A vendor weighs out fish for a customer. The vendors of this market will be trained in how to keep the water and surroundings clean and as a security measure there is a plan to install CCTVs here as well. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
For years vendors here had worked on land but have welcomed this change with high hopes in the government's move to resettle them this way and a bit of apprehension about customer response. So far, 228 vendors are their produce, with a floating salon also present. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
Wooden walking ramps connect tether the boats to land. Children below the age of 6 years won't be allowed in the market for safety concerns. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
A woman sets up her cereal shop on the boat. 114 boats have been brought in from Balagarh in Hoogly district to this local water body, to create this market reminiscent of Bangkok's famed floating market. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
KMDA spent around Rs. 9 crore to set up the floating market spread over 30,000 square metres. The timing for the market is set from 6 am to 1 pm and 4 pm to 9 pm daily. (Samir Jana / HT Photo)
about the galleryIndia gets its first floating market in Kolkata, constructed with inspiration from Bangkok's famous floating market. The vendors who were earlier removed from Baisnabghata-Patuli market have been rehabilitated to this new floating market.

A fluid pattern was introduced, which is central to the new look and feel, to cleverly create movement on pack while elevating the designs to reflect their premium positioning.

Obstructions in sewer systems are often caused by fats, oils and grease. As these materials are not soluble, they frequently solidify on system surfaces, obstructing pipes and floats, reducing pump life in lift stations and ultimately resulting in sewer main backups and overflows. To prevent this, frequent inspections are required. When observed, hazardous, costly and time consuming physical cleaning is used to remove the deposits. Prevent this with the use of GREASEGUARD FOG!
GREASEGUARD FOG is a controlled release block containing a synergistic blend of microbes and highly selective enzymes capable of degrading fats, oils, grease and other organic waste.
GREASEGUARD FOG can be used to control deposits by placing in sewage ejector systems, septic systems and municipal lift stations. Continuous use of GREASEGUARD FOG will reduce the buildup or fats, oils and grease on system surfaces. This reduces or eliminates the need for manual physical cleaning and reduces overall maintenance requirements. The microorganisms present in GREASEGUARD FOG are Canadian DSL compliant, naturally occurring and non-pathogenic.

God's Knowledge Revealed in Two Parts

"The Christian community has a divided mind about its textbook"—John Wenham
Most people are aware that the Bible is composed of written material presented in two sections, traditionally labeled the Old Testament and the New Testament. In some respects this terminology is misleading because it has subtly led some to reject large parts of God's revelation. The Old Testament is judged to be of less value or even obsolete by some theologians and religious leaders because it is older.
Many are the misconceptions concerning the Hebrew Bible. British author and Bible scholar John Wenham wrote: "We have had so much erroneous teaching for so many years that even intelligent people often really believe that the two Testaments represent two irreconcilably opposed points of view; the Old Testament being a God of wrath and the New Testament a God of love" (Christ and the Bible, p. 19).
Some conclude that the Old Testament was old—and thus obsolete or worn out—and it therefore has been replaced by the New Testament. The designations "Old Testament" and "New Testament" are found in a few places in some Bible translations, but the word translated "testament" is also the word for "covenant." These scriptures talk about the Old and New Covenants (to be fully explained in a later lesson)—not about the books of the Bible.
If you had lived 2,000 years ago and had asked the apostles Peter, Paul and John about the "Old Testament" or the "New Testament," they would have had no idea what you were talking about. These terms were coined by men long after the biblical books were written. The first use of "New Testament" for the Greek Scriptures is not found until a century or more after the deaths of the apostles.
So much of the Bible consists of the Old Testament. In fact, the vast majority of God's Word is made up of those Hebrew Scriptures—nearly 80 percent of the Bible's 773,000 words. Moreover, the New Testament contains some 600 quotations from and references or allusions to the Old.
In that light, does it make sense for much of the modern Christian world to view the Old Testament's contents as somehow inferior or conflicting with the New? Is it logical to disregard the history of God's revelation, His revealed way of life and the promises these Hebrew Scriptures contain?
As Walter Kaiser says in his book Towards Discovering the Old Testament, "the church spurns three-fourths of God's inscripturated revelation—a massive amount of biblical teaching—if she persists in constructing all of her theology from the NT, while shamefully neglecting the OT. It is this practice that will leave . . . imbalances in her teaching ministry. She must return to the profitable, didactic usage of the OT" (p. 29).

Each emotion shows you a powerful lesson.
The world seems to have separated two groups of emotions, positive and negative. Guilt seems to fit in the second group, but that's not the truth.
The state of guilt is what's bad. It's ok to feel guilty until you can see the lesson and possible actions you can take. But not longer than that.
You see, each emotion tells you a powerful message, it shares an important lesson, but we are all illiterate when it comes to the emotional language.
We have no idea what emotions tell us, what's their purpose, so we end up being reactive to their charge.
But each emotion screams the most important lessons to you. Guilt as an example, tells you how to be the best version of yourself.
3 Things Most Of Us Mistake About Guilt And Forgiveness:
1. Guilt is an emotion that helps you learn.
It seems like the world has given the emotion of guilt a negative label. However, the emotion of guilt is not negative. In fact, it's really helpful.
Guilt shows us what is against our code of honor, where we did a mistake, so we can know where to work on.
The emotion of guilt help us know what we should better in our actions or character so we can know how to be more congruent to our best version.
2. Real forgiveness is more about freeing yourself.
When we blame other people and hold resentment, we think that somehow we are punishing the other person. that's a BIG lie.
When you blame someone else, when you hold resentment, it's you who is getting hurt, it's you who is drinking that emotional poison.
Forgiving others is an act of release, it's freeing ourselves from them. it's more about you than them. However, do not forget the lesson.
3. If you can do something make sure it's the right action.
The biggest mistake of people who learn that forgiveness is freeing is using this as an excuse not to take action, or taking the wrong action.
These emotions show you what doesn't resonate with your code of honor, but if the action you take makes things worse, than do not take it.
It's not just about you. Do not hurt others so you can feel relieved. Feeling guilt and resentment isn't bad, as long as you learn the lessons they show.

Deep Roots with Jerry Grandjean
Keeping-it-real job title
Professional Tree Geek
Favorite tree
Giant sequoias because they're so magnificent and phenomenal. They defy gravity and laws of nature. When you stand before one and see it up close and personal, you just have this indescribable feeling. Pictures don't do them justice.
Five things you need to do your job well?
A microscope for diagnostics, a diameter tape for measuring, a clear mind without any preconceived notions about the tree, an analytical mindset so I can look deeper than the surface to find any tree's problem, and of course, a tree!
Home is where the heart is: where's that for you?
Anywhere my wife is. No matter where we are, when we're together, I feel like I'm at home.
What are you most passionate about in this job?
I've been a plant and tree lover my whole life, something I got from my mom. I love helping clients maintain their trees and visualizing their properties alongside them so I can help bring their vision to life. I get a great feeling when we keep a client's tree alive—one that they thought they would lose—and I see the happy look on their face.
Little-known fact
I grew up in the same town as Jon Bon Jovi, Sayreville, New Jersey.
What do you love to do outside of your job?
I love to spend time with my wife and son. We like to do anything outside—kayak, hike, ride bikes, fish, camp in the Adirondacks, garden, look for cool or interesting trees. If I'm outside and with my family, I'm happy.
How would your coworkers describe you?
Passionate about trees. I'm definitely a nerd about them.

Assembling a Team
Our homeowners engaged A Better Nest in spring 2014. Services began with an assessment of their current home to identify things that needed to be addressed to make the home suitable for the long-haul. The assessment informed their decision about whether to modify or to relocate. The decision was made to build a new residence, and we began to assemble a team.
First up were architects Steve Gilbert and Brandon Cothron (Gilbert, McLaughlin, Casella), who worked with us for several months on the plans. The owners gave them a significant challenge – to create a new home that is reminiscent of their current one but which improves upon it. It needs to feel like home and reflect their lifestyle and aesthetic. It needs to be smaller and still accommodate the furniture they're taking with them. And, it needs to stay within a specific budget. Steve and Brandon took all of that in stride. Through a very dynamic process they, A Better Nest and the owners created a design that fits the bill.
Aging in Place Tip:
It is easier to preserve independence than it is to restore it.
Aging-in-Placers tend to fall into two general camps: those who are proactive and those who "wait and see." Which are you?

I have a TON of old kids clothes. Packed away in boxes, crammed into closet corners, hiding in my trunk waiting to be dropped off at Goodwill. Coming out of my ears, it seems. But I guess that's what happens when you have two growing kids that need a new wardrobe twice a year. So, what do you do with all of those useless clothes after your kids have outgrown them, and assuming that you're done having babies and don't want to save them for hand-me-downs? I've got lots of great options that you probably haven't even considered!

Sell Old Kids Clothes
This is one of the easiest options, and it puts money back in your pocket. Lots of Moms out there buy clothes second-hand, myself included, and there is a HUGE market for gently-used kids' clothing. But where do you sell your old kids clothes? Here are my personal recommendations. I have sold kids' clothes using each of these methods so I can personally attest to the ease and effectiveness of each one.
Consignment Stores
Cash on the Spot Stores –
Consignment stores are by far the easiest way to sell your old kids clothes, especially if you sell to one that pays you cash on the spot like Once Upon A Child, a personal favorite. To sell your clothes to these types of consignment stores, simply bag up your clean and folded clothes and take them in. A store associate will go through your clothes and make you a cash offer for the items that they accept. Couldn't be easier! Often times, I use the cash as credit for the store to get my girls new clothes without spending a dime.
True Consignment Stores –
For true consignment stores, collect your clean, gently-used clothes and take them in. An associate will look through the clothes and let you know what items they will put on their sales floor. Then, once your item sells you will be paid a set percentage of the sale. Be sure to call the stores first for their specific consignment policies, as some only accept certain items throughout the year and others require that your clothes be brought in on hangers.
Seasonal Consignment Sales
If you've never been to a big seasonal consignment sale, you're missing out! Some of the popular sales in my area attract thousands of shoppers over a four day period. That's thousands of people that could potentially buy your old kids clothes! However, if you choose to sell your clothes at these sales, be warned – prepping your items for sale can take many hours. I've spent 15 hours just hanging, pinning, and labeling clothes for one sale. With that in mind, be sure to not over price your items. You should price your items at 60-80% below retail price. Trust me, you don't want to spend 15 hours prepping your clothes to sell, only to have to pick them up after the sale is over because you priced yourself out of the market. Click here for a list of consignment sales that take place near you.
Online Consignment Sites
Selling your stuff through online consignment sites is another super easy way to get rid of your old kids clothes. For the sites that I have used, you simply have to create an account, request a mailing bag, fill it up, and mail it back. I typically make around $50 per bag that I send in, but your total could vary depending on the brands of clothes that you have to sell. I have been successful at selling clothes through these two sites:
Thred Up – This is my preferred site, because you have the opportunity to get cash for your items immediately, before they sell on the site. Here's a bit of info taken from their FAQ: "Items listed on thredUP that are on-trend, in-season, and in great condition are generally paid out upfront (i.e. you get paid before the item sells). Items that are not in-season, but are still in great condition, and may take a bit longer to sell, are generally paid on consignment (i.e. you get paid after the item sells). The amount you're paid depends on the original price, brand, and category of each item. You can use our Payout Estimator to find out what others have earned for similar items."
Swap.com – This is another great site that I use. I actually have items listed for sale on Swap.com right now. The only reason why I ranked them as #2 is because you will not be paid for your items until they sell ("true" consignment). Be careful that you only send them good quality clothes that fit their acceptance criteria. If more than 40% of your box is rejected, then you could be charged a fee of $5-$10. Learn more about their consigning policies here.

Garage Sales
I love a good garage sale! Especially ones that have lots of cheap kids clothes! If you're willing to open your home – er, garage – to some deal-hunters then there is definitely money to be made. If you choose to go this route, try to lay neatly folded clothes out by size on long tables. Shoppers are much more likely to spend the time going through your items if they are neatly organized and within reach, rather than if they are just dumped in piles on the driveway. And be sure to price your items right! I've purchased nice, name brand kids clothes at garage sales for about $0.50-$1.00 for shirts and $1.00-$2.00 for pants. It may not seem like a lot per item, but if you have a bunch to sell, the profit can really add up. And the point is to get rid of your old kids' clothes, right?!
Ebay/Facebook Marketplace/Craigslist
I've sold many items, including kids' clothes, on each of these sites. With Facebook and Craigslist, your buyers are typically local so I recommend combining like sizes into "lots" and selling many pieces together. You don't want to be running all over town meeting buyers for one or two shirts at a time. In the past, I have sold a trash bag full of mixed season clothes for about $50. If you choose to use Facebook, you can list on Facebook Marketplace and any local buy/sell/trade groups that you belong to. Another benefit of using Facebook over Craigslist as a selling platform is that with Facebook you can actually see who your buyer is by looking at their profile.
For Ebay, you need to do a bit more legwork upfront. Creating an ebay listing takes a bit more time, and you will need to account for shipping costs. This could mean taking your items (already boxed up) to the post office to get shipping quotes so that you know what to set your shipping prices at. Or you could choose to offer free shipping; however, if you do this be sure to set your selling price high enough to account for your extra cost. You definitely don't want to have a loss when selling your old kids clothes!
If you don't want to take the time to prep your clothes to sell, then you may choose to donate them. A lot of great organizations will take your secondhand kids' clothes and pass them on to kids and families that may be struggling. Here are just a few ideas of places to donate your items:
Churches – Many churches accept donations to pass along to members of their congregation or community that are in need.
Schools – Check with your the PTA or front office of your child's school to see if they distribute secondhand clothes to needy students.
Goodwill/Thrift Stores – Super convenient. Many even have a drive-thru lane for donations so you don't even have to get out of your car!
Get Crafty
So many crafts out there call for some type of fabric as one of the needed supplies… So why not recycle your old kids clothes into a beautiful new craft?! Here are some of the best t-shirt and fabric crafts from around the net:
DIY Tassel Garland from Old Kids' Clothes
Yes, I'm listing my own genius use of old clothes first. I had seen these beautiful and trendy tassels all over the place and thought "Why not repurpose some of my girls' old outgrown clothes into a beautiful keepsake decor piece?" So this is what I came up with. Click on the link above for the full tutorial on how to create this little masterpiece yourself.
I couldn't ever get my girls to wear jeans when they were younger. Leggings e'ry day! But if your little ones aren't scared off by the thought of a zipper and a stiff pair of pants, and you have some old jeans laying around, this bracelet is super cute!
T-Shirt Quilt (found on Etsy)
If you're handy with a sewing machine, gather up some of your kids' old t-shirts from memorable events and fashion them into a cozy t-shirt quilt. I haven't touched a sewing machine since home-ec class in high school, so this would be way out of my wheelhouse. If you're like me, you can order your own customized quilt like the one above from Etsy! Hello, cute and snuggly keepsake!
Clean with them
Why spend your hard earned money on buying scraps of fabric (aka cleaning and dusting rags) from the store when you can quickly cut your own?
Use clothing items that already have stains or holes as cleaning rags, since you won't be able to sell them.
Packing Supplies
Have a move coming up? Old kids' clothes make great packing material for fragile items. Wrap Grandma's china in an old pair of sweatpants, and save money on packing peanuts and bubble wrap!

Updated, 11:36 a.m. Thursday | The $104 monthly MetroCard moved one step closer to reality on Wednesday as the Metropolitan Transportation Authority voted to start the process of implementing a sprawling set of fare increases on the region's buses, trains and bridges.
By Jan. 1, railroad commuters and E-ZPass users who cross the authority's bridges and tunnels would pay about 10 percent more to get into the city. Almost all bus and subway passengers would shell out more for a ride, and the concept of an unlimited pass to the system may become obsolete.
Officials at the transportation authority say the fare increases will occur in lieu of any additional service cuts this year. But the agency's financial planners acknowledged that keeping fares down in the future could be contingent on extracting concessions from Transport Workers Union Local 100, a tall order for an agency that has traditionally struggled to rein in labor costs.
The meeting of the authority's board on Wednesday brought out raw emotions from transit workers and politicians who said the fare increases would be an unfair burden on New Yorkers already facing high unemployment.
But Jay H. Walder, the authority's chairman, said the fare increases were "forced on us by circumstance."
"This is not a situation that we've created," Mr. Walder said, moments before the board voted to approve the increases. "It is not a situation that's occurring because our expenses are up. It's not a situation that is occurring because our ridership is down. It's a situation occurring because our subsidies have not been there and money has been taken from us by the state."
The authority has been floundering financially since last fall, when state legislators voted to strip away some of its money. The economy has also depressed tax revenues and legislators have shown little interest in restoring money for mass transit.
Instead of an across-the-board fare increase, as in years past, the authority will make a variety of smaller tweaks to the myriad ticket types available to its riders.
The fare increases must still go through a public hearing process in September, and a final vote will not be held until October.
Bus and subway riders who use a monthly pass — about a third of all riders — will face one of two possibilities: spending $99 for a monthly pass that would be limited to 90 rides, or paying $104 for an unlimited pass, a 17 percent increase from the current $89 monthly fare. The authority said it would solicit public feedback before deciding between the proposals.
Update | Commuters from Long Island, Westchester County and along New York stations on the New Haven Line will soon pay up to 9.4 percent more for tickets, depending on the route, and the authority would discontinue the discounts offered for tickets that are purchased online or via postal mail.

It's definitely soup time here in the northeastern United States. The temperatures are dropping and Laura told me she even saw some snowflakes while she was out getting coffee yesterday. Not my favorite weather to be sure, but one upside is that I get to break out the Instant Pot or the crock pot and whip up some really comforting dishes like this traditional Moroccan soup, Haria.
Often served during Ramadan, Harira has a broth base and is loaded with vegetables and legumes. The classic recipe calls for meat, which I've obviously omitted in my version. You won't miss it anyway. There are so many incredible flavors in here from the ingredients I just mentioned to the handful of spices, that there isn't even any room for meat. One thing I did include though, in my own way, is smen, which is a really stinky, herb-infused butter concoction that is similar to ghee. I simply incorporated regular plant-based butter and thyme. It might not be exactly what's called for in Morocco, but it does add some good flavor here nonetheless.
Harira is super hearty and pretty low-calorie at less than 200 per cup. And like everything that's made in the magical Instant Pot, it can be done in roughly twenty minutes. How great is that? Instead of spending forever stirring something in a Dutch oven, you can curl up on the couch with a hot mug of this filling soup and watch an old Barbara Stanwyck movie (there's a peek into my viewing habits, ha!). Oh, and if you want a nightcap afterward, I suggest this Turmeric Golden Milk to round out the evening.
Tell Me What You Think
As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this Instant Pot Moroccan Harira if you make it. So drop me a comment below, and be sure to tag @nutfreevegan on social media if you're posting photos. Plus, it's always super fun to see these dishes out in the wild!

I was on the radio yesterday morning promoting my latest book, We Chose Life, and was asked what I thought about the Octuplet Lady out in California. I declined to offer an answer because I knew only the headlines and hadn't looked much further than that and so didn't consider myself informed on that situation. I'm still not overly informed. 🙂 It was in the news this morning so I guess I'm slightly more informed now… with these caveats…
I think my main point of resistance is not with her being implanted with 6 embryos. In the secular press that seems to be the big complaint. I guess she would not have been 'selfish' if she had only had 1-2 embryos implanted? The secular press sees embryos as impersonal commodities and so the focus is all on the woman. But I believe that the embryos are actual human persons. What would have been their fate had they not been implanted? I suppose eventually they would have been destroyed. This doesn't seem like a good solution to me. After the embryos have been created, I find myself happy that they have been given a chance at life.
While in the main the woman strikes me as a pretty loopy in the net analysis I'm glad she did what she did, at least insofar as the embryo implantation goes.
My main point of resistance is not with the implantation but with the creation of the embryos in the first place. In my mind, it is here where the ethical questions should have been played out by the doctors and by society at large. Do we really want to be generating thousands upon thousands of embryos that will be stored indefinitely and then, at the last, destroyed? I am all for helping parents conceive and have children and receiving medical help if necessary, but I am not for creating embryos that one does not plan to implant.
In short, the time to have discussed real life with this lady is when she sought to have the embryos created in the first place. After they were created, giving them a chance for life is much superior to the alternative.
My convictions inform me that an embryo is not an expendable commodity. I don't know what the pro-life community at large is saying about this particular subject but if they aren't already, I suggest they- we- dwell on the culture and attitudes involved in the generation of hundreds of thousands of eventually unused embryos.
Their fate in my mind is only slightly better than the Jews during the Holocaust. Millions of embryos are also going to the ovens, but at least they are not suffering in the meantime or during. Even if the embryos don't feel it (and I am not certain they don't) it still wouldn't be right, and action is still required. Our responsibility to Life goes beyond pregnant women and extends to the consumer mentality that pervades even in the fertility industry.

Why Templafy
Quickly creating on-brand documents and presentations
Now all the latest marketing content is available directly where it's needed- within PowerPoint and Word. Roos adds, "With Templafy, it has become easy for Ramboll employees to directly import relevant company content into Word documents, such as reports and tenders. Furthermore, the slide library we have developed has been a huge time saver and very well received by employees. Now they are enabled to quickly create professional, on-brand slides, presentations and documents."
With Templafy, there's no need for Ramboll employees to google for images or icons that are likely off-brand. All 200+ branded icons and company infographics, as well as ready-made document templates, are now easy to find.
Consistent email signatures
Templafy also helps Ramboll maintain a consistent brand through email signatures. The company's previous email signature function depended very much on users actively generating it. Templafy ensures that the most up-to-date, on-brand email signatures are automatically applied to every employee email sent. This means email signatures are consistent across the company and don't need to be manually added by employees.
Roos explains that, "Templafy provides a professional and centralized process for adding email signatures and banners. Our branding team can ensure that all banner campaigns are approved before they are added, and we can even filter them for specific areas in the company. Furthermore, we avoid the possibility of employees adding individual, off-brand emails signatures or campaigns."
Overall content management
Before Templafy, distributing new content meant updating a template package, waiting for IT to roll it out and then waiting longer for it to be updated on all employees' individual computers. The branding team at Ramboll can now instantly roll out updates to document templates, PowerPoint presentations, slides and email signatures across the entire company. Now Ramboll employees have access to document templates, text elements and images from within Microsoft Word.

As more central Ohioans turn to bicycles as a clean and healthy way to get around, it may be important for public-safety agencies to keep them more in mind.
Catherine Girves, executive director of the bike advocacy group Yay Bikes!, wants city police officers to interview all parties and take reports on all bicycle-motor vehicle collisions, even when no one is obviously hurt. Girves suffered a concussion and other injuries on Feb. 12 after a car turned in front of her. Her concussion wasn't diagnosed until a few days later and no report of the collision exists. She's worried that many more such injuries go without official notice.
More data on collisions involving bikes undoubtedly would be helpful for designing safer roads and learning what drivers and cyclists alike can do to avoid problems. The same goes for scooters, which have returned to central Ohio streets as the weather grew warmer.
If a full police response and report on every incident would tax police resources, perhaps the police division could come up with a simpler alternative. Making central Ohio roads safer for bicyclists requires more public awareness, and an accurate safety assessment is a good way to start.

Since the worst Ebola outbreak on record ignited last December in West Africa, scientists have been racing to develop drugs and vaccines to combat the virus. Several experimental drugs have been given to patients, and a new study details how scientists think one of those drugs might neutralize the virus.
The research focused on three antibodies, two of which are part of the experimental drug known as ZMapp. It hasn't been officially tested in human clinical trials yet, but seven patients have received the drug so far this year. Though Ebola fatality rates sometimes approach 90 percent, five of the patients receiving ZMapp survived, including Americans Nancy Writebol and Kent Brantly. The drug has been shown to be incredibly efficient at treating Ebola infections in monkeys, all of which survived when treated. But it's unknown how much the drug contributed to the human patients' survival.
Antibodies in a drug that fights Ebola bind to three sites (red) on one of the viral proteins. Two of the antibodies lock the protein together and prevent the virus from invading host cells.
Jonathan AudetDesigning better drugs means understanding why the ones we have work, so a team of scientists recently took a close look at how some of the drug's ingredients combat Ebola virus particles, and published the results today in Scientific Reports.
The trio of antibodies the scientists studied are part of a drug cocktail known as ZMAb, which has been shown to treat Ebola infections in mice, guinea pigs and monkeys.
Antibodies are proteins that recognize and respond to foreign substances, such as bacteria and viruses. ZMAb sends its three antibodies to find and knock out Ebola virus particles. In short, they interfere with the mechanism the virus uses to slip into host cells, keeping viral numbers low enough for the immune system to do its job.
All three antibodies target and bind to a protective protein the virus wears, called a glycoprotein. These glycoproteins protrude in spikes from the noodle-shaped Ebola particles and are essential both for infiltrating host cells and evading the host's immune response.
The two of those three antibodies that are also used in the ZMapp drug, known as 2G4 and 4G7, adhere to sites near the base of the glycoprotein, near a border between two of the protein's movable subunits. These antibodies appear to pin the protein together and prevent it from changing shape, which scientists think is a key maneuver during viral invasion of host cells.
"The antibodies are like molecular staples, or burly wrestlers pinning you down so you can't move," said Kartik Chandran, a virologist at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, who studies how Ebola virus gets into cells. "One of the virus' Achilles heels is that they transform during infection. They're like Swiss Army knives. Antibodies that can staple together two parts of the protein that move relative to each other are basically a good antiviral."
Nancy Writebol, an American aid worker from North Carolina who was infected with the Ebola virus while working in Liberia, arrives at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Tuesday, Aug. 5, 2014.
The third antibody that isn't part of the ZMapp combo doesn't appear to be as potent a neutralizer as the first two. But scientists think it might be playing a role in attracting immune cells to the pinned virus. "Those could destroy viruses or infected cells," said Erica Ollmann Saphire, a virologist at The Scripps Research Institute.
The precise mechanics of the antiviral onslaught aren't totally worked out, but it's clear that a combination of three antibodies works better than any single antibody on its own. One explanation, perhaps, is that it's tricky for a virus to mutate and escape the activity of three antibodies at the same time, and that mutating and eluding just one is much easier.
That's one of the reasons scientists often mix antibodies into cocktails, as they've done with ZMapp. The antibodies in that cocktail have been modified slightly for use in humans (see sidebar), but scientists don't think that process (called "humanizing") will change how the proteins interact with Ebola virus particles.
"What is the likelihood that the mouse and humanized antibodies work in the same way? That's highly likely," said viral immunologist James Crowe Jr. of Vanderbilt University, who is also working on developing Ebola antibodies.

What do you think the future of dance music will sound like?
I really don't know because it is moving so fast. There is always an act coming over and pushing the boundaries. That is the thing we are always looking forward too. I think the performance aspect of dance music is going to change. For example, I am working on a live set for my shows where I can perform live with two other musicians and no DJ gear.
Who do you think is pushing the sound design barriers of electronic dance music?
Flume and Skrillex are obvious but also guys outside of dance music like Metro Boomin, and others.
What have you learned from the success of "Are You With Me"?
To stay humble. You can have a really big track but you have to concentrate on the next records because you can't rely on one song for the duration of your career.
What future releases can you talk about?
My next single features an established singer and it will be out at the end of April. I'm really excited about it but interested to see how the fans will react since it is a larger act instead of using a featured artist who is in the emerging category or smaller.
Who would you like to collaborate with in 2018?
I would love to be in the studio with Flume but I don't think his sound and my sound would make much sense. Martin Solveig and Dua Lipa are both on my list and would be a lot of fun I think.
Beach or Mountains?
Pizza or Tacos?
What color M&Ms?
Vodka or Tequila?
Favorite City?
San Francisco
Favorite place to be in winter?
South of the world because it is warm
