When Doris came up with the idea of the entire design team creating individual pieces to be contributed to our Christmas garland, I thought it was a fabulous idea. I've loved seeing all of the girls' gorgeous pieces and it's been a reminder of how versatile and lovely Jenni Bowlin products are!
I wanted to use Jenni's tart tins and a Christmas themed bingo place card and concocted this piece. I chose the "Give" Bingo Card and added the Santa image and bell because it called to mind the Salvation Army Santas with their bells that collect for the needy during the holiday season and I love the giving aspect of the holidays.
The Santa card came from Jenni's new holiday collection papers, and I added it to the top half of the place card, after adding double stick tape and red glass glitter to edge the top of the card. I also backed the card with cardstock so as to prevent the place card from folding in the middle where the prescored fold is.
Glitter and foil are a must for Christmas, so I used pretty foil bits as well. But the real fun came about when I got out my can of red spray paint and painted the tart tin. I loved the option of custom coloring the tin so much that I can't wait to do the same for future holidays -- I can visualize lovely pastel painted tins all done up with clear glitter for Easter! Tip for spray painting, set the tin inside a shallow cardboard box in a well ventilated area. I used Krylon Short Cuts in Red Pepper, which is a 3 oz. can of spray paint I found at Joann's for $3.99. Use a light hand, hold it atleast 6" away from the tart tin and spray light coats waving the can back and forth as you spray until you get full coverage. It dries pretty quickly. I sprayed the inside first, then turned it over and sprayed the outside and let it sit to dry.
I also found a whole package of real silver bells - 12 for 50 cents (!) at my local thrift store and spray painted the metal bell as well. I attached the tin to the card by using my manual craft drill to drill a hole in the tin and anchoring it with a brad to the card so as not to worry about it breaking or falling off the card. I added one of Jenni's chipboard buttons in the center of the tin to cover up the brad and a white seam binding bow and baker's twine for hanging.
I can't wait to see the entire garland with all the pieces hanging side by side! In the meantime, you can view all of the individual garland projects by clicking on the header "christmas garland" at the top menu of the blog.

Tanks and protests in Syria
Dec. 25 - Amateur video from Syria depicts tanks rolling through the streets of Homs and protests in other parts of the country. Deborah Lutterbeck reports.
Amateur video of Syria appears to show tanks on the street of Homs. The video, which could not be indpendently verified by Reuters comes amid reports that three people were killed in Homs Sunday. Homs, a stronghold of the resistance to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, has purportedly witnessed more violence after twin suicide bombings killed 44 people in Damascus on Friday. More footage shows demonstrators back on the streets across the country. On Sunday the head of an Arab League mission arrived in Damascus to check Syria's compliance with an Arab peace plan to halt the violence. The United Nation says more than 5,000 people have been killed in Syria since the uprising began in March. Assad's opponents have voiced skepticism about the mission. They say they have little confidence that Assad will honor the agreement. Syrian authorities blame the violence on foreign-backed armed Islamist "terrorists" who they say have killed 2,000 members of Syria's security forces. Syria has banned most independent media from the country making it difficult to verify accounts from activists or the government. Deborah Lutterbeck, Reuters

A whole group of gaming companies and others contributed to the $60 million fund that is the Clean Water Coalition for a project now on hold. One of those, the M Resort, is not thrilled that the six figures it contributed is now going to patch the state budget. (The state grabbed the money in the recent special session.) The letter at right indicates someone -- the county or the state? -- may get sued.


text:
There is no truth in the rumour that the quick-stepping partners in our world-famous Dance of the Coalition are reintroducing ration books. They speak volubly about an age of austerity, but they have no plans to return to that symbol of the postwar era. At least, not yet.
My Hereford correspondent asks why I have not yet – I quote – "put the knife in" to the chancellor. Cheerful Gideon George Osborne is senior to the cutter-general, the chief secretary to the Treasury – a post held until yesterday by David Laws, who was charged with controlling public expenditure but appears to have had some difficulty with his own.
The answer to the questioner from Hereford is that there is a severe shortage of knives. They have all been snapped up by the Treasury, which is rejoicing in the return of the "Treasury view". For younger readers, this was the belief that it did not matter whether you were sure that the economy had emerged from recession; the important thing was "to cut, cut, cut".
I suspect that my dear friend Wynne Godley, who died this month, is already turning in his grave. Before moving on to academia, Godley made a seminal contribution to the Treasury's understanding of, and ability to control, public spending. But he knew when to cut and when not to cut; and, as his old department generously acknowledged at his funeral: "In the 2000s, much of which coincided with a period of apparent and widely researched stability, what stands out is his distinctive analysis and his prescience about the looming financial and economic crisis, and the potential role for what had become by then innovative policies in responding."
Yes, fiscal policy – a major component of the recent economic stimulus to ward off depression, and opposed all the way by David Cameron and Osborne – was by the 2000s seen as innovative. We now have a government that wishes to remove the stimulus as fast as it can, supported by coalition partner Vince Cable, who appears to have made a personal policy U-turn on the basis of one message from the governor of the Bank of England.
One of the least attractive aspects of the coalition is the way that it trumpets the case for cuts as if it is being frightfully brave in announcing measures that can only add to unemployment. In May 1997, Godley delivered a sermon in King's College chapel, Cambridge, in which he quoted a Winston Churchill speech of 50 years earlier, in the heyday of the Treasury view: "The country lacks goods and a million and a quarter people lack work. It is certainly one of the highest functions of national finance and credit to bridge the gulf between the two … While that unemployment exists no one is entitled to plume himself on the financial or credit policies which we have pursued."
Beneath the pious words we now hear from this temporary coalition, I fear that one detects not so much a shift in power from the centre as a shift in responsibility, without the accompanying resources to go with it. The echoes of the early 1980s are deafening. As Godley observed in that same sermon: "I look back on one period of great success, which was also one in which governments believed, rightly or wrongly, that this was the result of their own actions. The second period, greatly inferior when judged by the standard criteria of achievement, was one in which governments ceased to believe that they had those powers; but rather that by selective withdrawal they could 'create conditions' for the invisible hand of competition to restore prosperity."
This approach assumes that, if policymakers are so minded, they can still choose the right levers, and work them. This is one of the themes of a new book by Stephen D King, group chief economist at HSBC, entitled Losing Control: The Emerging Threats To Western Prosperity (Yale University Press). The big threat is what lies in store for the west from competition for scarce resources from Asia and other emerging economies. King also argues convincingly that western economic policy was set off course by the belief of our policymakers in the putative wonders of the inflation-targeting regime, when the downward movement on inflation was caused principally by the impact of Chinese cheap labour on the prices of imported goods.
Then there was the impact of all those capital flows arising from high savings in the east. As King says: "The Bank of England's policy of raising interest rates more or less continuously from 2003 through to 2007 triggered huge capital inflows from abroad. These were then invested by UK financial institutions in low-quality junk bonds, helping fuel a real-estate boom. While the inflows also pushed up the sterling exchange rate, thereby keeping a lid on inflation, the economy as whole became increasingly unbalanced."
King accuses the west of rewriting history in attributing its economic success to the wonders of market forces. "Market forces appeared to work well within the western world, in part because they were not allowed to work elsewhere … As markets open up all over the world, so the west's ability to rig those markets to suit its own interest is on the wane."
Market forces are now punishing European governments whose deficits were swollen by the cost of bailing out those markets. King believes the eurozone needs "a strong dose of fiscal integration, shifting the balance of power away from markets towards policymakers". I agree.

First of all, your orange and blue color scheme for your Thanksgiving table is so beautiful! I agree with Judy, wouldn't want to mess it up with food! My mother-in-law used to make a cranberry/orange relish with raw cranberries and orange peel and I never liked it. Just too tart! But yours sounds like a recipe I want to try. Sugar AND Jello? Yes, that's right up my alley! We didn't have turkey yesterday (I know, what?) but are planning to do one for Christmas when all the family is here so I'm definitely tucking this recipe into my recipe box to use then. Thanks for sharing it!

Stories on a Napkin – Chamba Rumal
Last week I visited an exhibition that left me thinking - sublime.
The Delhi Crafts Council has spent over a decade reviving the art of double sided embroidery on rumals in Chamba, Himachal Pradesh. The exhibition titled Raas was the culmination of their efforts. These rumals are square cloths, used to cover platters as gifts for the deity or during marraiges for exchanging gifts.
This art form is the coming together of Pahari miniature painting tradition and do- rukha (double sided) embroidery done with silk floss. The speciality of this technique is that the embroidery appears to be the same on both sides of the cloth. The drawing for the embroidery is done by Pahari Miniature artists, usually men and the embroidery is done by women. No wonder then that the themes usually revolve around Lord Krishna.
What struck me most was the sophisticated use of colour, the diaphanous muslin on which the embroidery is done giving the whole piece a sacred glow and the manner in which the exhibition was mounted. Though very simple it was the details that made it special. Bamboo display structures, marigolds strings arranged at the entrance of the exhibition, grass mats on the floor, lovely muslin bags in which the pieces on sale were packaged.
It was no ordinary exhibition this, it uplifted my spirit in every sense of the word. I do not know about the commercial viability of this art form but in the spiritual realm its is truly priceless

""Don't you want to be alive before you die?" - Anthony Doerr
The past few weeks I have had the absolute pleasure of reading All the Light we Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. I've read a fair share of war novels over the years. As a genre, I feel like I have to be in a certain 'mood' for them, because inevitably, they promise to be heartbreaking one way or another. I began reading this novel while in an indifferent mood. As you may have read in a previous post, my reading this year hasn't been great and upon deciding to dive straight back into it again this month, I primarily picked up this book as it was conveniently available at my local library. Upon noticing that it won the Pulitzer Prize last year, I thought I'd be mad not to give it a shot, and it delivered beyond my expectations.
All the Light we Cannot See centers on the lives of two children during World War Two; one, a blind French girl by the name of Marie-Laure Leblanc, the other, an orphan German boy called Werner Pfenning who is chosen to attend a Nazi military academy and apply his impressive engineering skills. The book alternates between the characters each chapter, while also flashing forwards and back in time. I'm not usually a fan of this type of narrative construction, but Doerr is a master of his craft, knowing when and where to use the time changes to create heightened suspense while also maintaining a perfect balance between the two characters so readers don't lose interest in one character over the other.
We often hear about war heroes, and the sacrifices they made, but what I really loved about this novel is that it's rather interested in the otherwise unknown histories of ordinary civilians and most of all, children. What's so impactful about it, and also most devastating, is that readers witness Marie and Werner struggle to maintain their childlike wonder and awe and to really own their lives amidst the chaos and complexities of man made devastation and destruction. Marie loves to read as Werner loves science, a passion instilled within him as a child when he would listen in secret to radio broadcasts about the mysteries of the universe. In the end, it is these passions that ultimately bring the two together and in doing so, Doerr speaks of the invaluable importance of education, the power of the written word and of an inquisitive mind. The story of Marie and Werner touched me in such a profound way that they haunted my mind long after reading the final page. I felt inspired by Mairie's unfaltering determination and struck by what Werner could have been, what he could have brought to the world with his talents; what all those fallen who fought for their country could have done to make the world a better place.
Anthony Doerr's writing style itself is illuminating. All the Light We cannot See is unforgettable. If there's one thing you read this year, make sure it's this. 5/5

Idleyld, OR to Klamath Falls, OR/
Stop #9
Miles driven this leg: 142
Total miles driven: 2913
States visited: 7
I would not be surprised if today goes down as being one of the most memorable and favorite days of our journey. We started the day at our beautiful campsite in Umpqua National Forest and we were almost stilled by the beauty surrounding us. It seems to be one of those hidden gems that not everyone knows about and that's part of what makes the area so unique. There is an intimate quality that we hadn't seen in any other place yet. We had even talked to a few people who lived within an hour or to of Umpqua who either hadn't heart of it or hadn't heard much of it.
On our way to visit Dan's cousin in southern Oregon, we decided to stop at Crater Lake because we'd heard it was pretty. Dan pulled the HQ into a lookout spot but the view was hidden from the parking lot. Let me backtrack for a minute.. As we were getting ready to leave our campground early this morning, I had ducked into the cab to grab something and on my way in hit the top of my head HARD on a rung that holds the ladder in place. It was bad and I was in a lot of pain. So much that I had to sit for a few minutes to grasp what had happened. After that I started feeling nauseous and I laid down for a bit of the drive to Crater Lake. When we arrived at the lookout, I had a throbbing headache and honestly just didn't want to get out. I peeked around the corner once and the sun made my head throb so I went back into the RV. Meanwhile, Dan and Sammy had been exploring. I finally just decided to go take a peek and when Elijah and I walked up a hill to meet them, they came running down toward us. They told me to close my eyes and they guided me to the lookout. I will NEVER forget Sammy excitedly saying, "Mom. You are about to see the PRETTIEST thing you've ever seen in your life!" Those words mean a lot coming from Sammy, but I still did not know just how beautiful it would be.
I could not understand the beauty in front of us. It was incomprehensible, tear-inducing and seriously on a strange level it was life-changing. I did not know that sort of beauty existed. It was other-worldly and almost too much to absorb. ALL of us, even the boys, I'm positive, locked that moment and image in our minds. The water was so blue. Bluer than any water I've ever seen before. It was as clear as glass. The mountains surrounded the pristine lake almost in a perfect circle, like it was protecting its beauty fiercely.
We drove around the east side of the lake and felt pulled to stop at almost every lookout. Dan and I got out each time and breathed it in. Each time we walked back to the RV, we let out a double heavy sigh like we couldn't believe we had to walk away.
The blues you see? They really are that blue. And as always, the photos don't do a great job of representing the scene. It's about 100 times more beautiful than what you see here.
We were so caught up in the scenery that we realized we were supposed to be in Klamath Falls by 1:30. We drove our trusty RV as fast as we could through NARROW and bumpy roads back down the mountain.
The landscape changed drastically once we left Crater National Park. It was a different kind of beauty and on another day we might have swooned. Today we felt like nothing could compare to what we had just seen.
Dan's cousin Mike is a fighter pilot in the air force and is currently stationed in Klamath Falls. We stopped by to see him at work and he gave us the royal treatment and an amazing tour. He showed us what a typical day looks like for him. Then he drove us onto the taxiway so we could get a close-up view of the F-15s taking off and landing. Just a typical day, ha!
The boys thought it was cool, but Dan and I thought it was COOL. I got a bit of an adrenaline rush just watching and wanted to start flying lessons immediately. :)
We were able to get a glimpse of the cockpit and a quick "tour" of one of the jets.
Tonight we are parked in Mike and Jamie's driveway. They fed us a delicious meal and took good care of us. Our boys and their boys played well together and we had a great time swapping boy stories and catching up. Tomorrow we will head to Reno to visit dear friends for a few nights. We are WIPED OUT, but in an I-just-had-the-most-amazing-day sort of way.

On Wednesday, Google announced that more than two thirds of user data Google forwards to government agencies across the US is handed over without a probable cause warrant.Google spokesman, Chris Gaither, told sources that they demand government agencies to get a probable cause warrant for content on its email and other platforms. Despite the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) which allows the Government to search through customer data without a warrant if it is on Google's servers for more than 180 days."In order to compel us to produce content in Gmail we require an ECPA search warrant" Noted the Google Spokesman. "If they come for registration information, that's one thing, but if they ask for content of e-mail, that's another thing."While not a lot of tech companies actually announce how many government requests they get, Google is one of the few email providers that is actually challenging law enforcement agencies to produce said warrants to access a user's email.Google should be able to take some comfort in the fact that in 2010, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Fourth Amendment protecting unreasonable searches and seizures also protects email, even if it is over 180 days old, despite what ECPA says.

Early intervention focus
Aspect Practice early intervention workshops
All research evidence supports that early intervention makes a significant difference for children with autism.
Getting the news that your child has autism can be confronting, and families need help to be able to support their child, explains Aspect Senior Manager Early Intervention, Rachel Kerslake. "If parents aren't in a good position to actually support learning and working with their child, they're not going to get the outcomes that they want."
Aspect's early intervention program, Early Intervention Program, offers a comprehensive approach for children and their families.
Aims of the Aspect Therapy Services Comprehensive Approach
For a child or young person, the Aspect Therapy Services Comprehensive Approach aims to:
- Develop the child's functional skills and minimise the core features of autism and the associated difficulties
- Develop a child's independence to facilitate participation and inclusion in the wider community

Fair or unfair? Yesterday's review of Delaware Theatre Company's production of The Piano Lesson took shape as an almost side-by-side comparison with the Arden's production, which was reviewed by my colleague, Howie Shapiro. Since the shows ran back-to-back, as a journalist, pairing them seemed inevitable. However, I can't help wondering if readers are more interested in hearing about a specific production or enjoy getting some of the context surrounding it. Feel free to enlighten me.

A playlist for the week.
Mos Def honors the memories of others who have held the power of the word, coming to us through "the speakerbox (freaky radio everywhere on the dial)".
As Kweli says, "The beautiful thing about hip-hop is it's like an audio collage."
Erykah: "If you look at all the cultures in America, this is a great opportunity for us to really get acquainted with the rest of the world."
Fiona wants to be the "patron saint of reality."
I think Emily Dickinson (see previous post) would have listened carefully to Badu, Harvey, Kweli, Mos Def and Apple, if there had been a radio or the Internet up in that room of hers in the house in Amherst.
Mos Def: "Champion Requiem"
Talib Kweli with Hi Tek: "The Blast"
P.J. Harvey: "Down by the Water"
Fiona Apple: "Paper Bag"
Erykah Badu: "On and On"

An example of a fractal in 3 dimensions
From Wikipedia:
A fractal is a mathematical set that exhibits a repeating pattern displayed at every scale. It is also known as expanding symmetry or evolving symmetry. If the replication is exactly the same at every scale, it is called a self-similar pattern. An example of this is the Menger Sponge. Fractals can also be nearly the same at different levels. This latter pattern is illustrated in small magnifications of the Mandelbrot set. Fractals also include the idea of a detailed pattern that repeats itself.Fractals are different from other geometric figures because of the way in which they scale. Doubling the edge lengths of a polygon multiplies its area by four, which is two (the ratio of the new to the old side length) raised to the power of two (the dimension of the space the polygon resides in). Likewise, if the radius of a sphere is doubled, its volume scales by eight, which is two (the ratio of the new to the old radius) to the power of three (the dimension that the sphere resides in). But if a fractal's one-dimensional lengths are all doubled, the spatial content of the fractal scales by a power that is not necessarily an integer. This power is called the fractal dimension of the fractal, and it usually exceeds the fractal's topological dimension.As mathematical equations, fractals are usually nowhere differentiable. An infinite fractal curve can be conceived of as winding through space differently from an ordinary line, still being a 1-dimensional line yet having a fractal dimension indicating it also resembles a surface.

😉 – When all I need's to turn around
With less than 2 weeks left of school I've started thinking about my summer classes. No school for the girls means no school bus driving for me (the joys of us all being in the same school district). Sometimes classes are scheduled so far in advance that I tend to forget that they are looming on the horizon but this year was really an 11th hour kind of schedule explosion.
Summer Squash Market Bag @ Metaphor Yarns
I'm currently bouncing back and forth between Webs in Northampton and Metaphor Yarns in Shelburne Falls. They have an overlap in customer base so I do my darndest to keep them separate, no conflict of interest. SO when it came to the 2nd week of May and I was suddenly scheduling classes at both I fell into a bit of a spin.
Hexagon baby jacket @ WEBS
What did I want to teach? Which classes fit the customer base best? How many classes could I fit into a summer? How many could I handle and not burn myself out? After all, I do want to spend some time with my husband and kids, friends and family in the next 3 months.
Amigurumi, Holiday Inspiration @ Metaphor Yarns
I think I found a good balance. Classes that I'm excited to teach in both settings. Basics classes that I not only thoroughly enjoy teaching but that teach me new things about my students and how to teach each time I step before a new set of eager learners.
Starling Handbag @WEBS (This is from Alice's fantastic pattern! Which I love. I made one earlier in the year and I can't stop using it!)
So check out the WEBS Summer schedule and the Class list at Metaphor Yarns and if you're in the area come hook with me 😉

Start Creating Dramatic Stone Effects With Stone Selex: Interior Stone Design Manufacturers And Installers In Toronto, London, Hamilton, Ottawa And The Maritimes.
New interior design trends in "stone veneer" for fireplaces, accent walls and bars In today's engaged, hectic world, your home is your castle - your place to escape the city's flashing lights and blaring horns. It's bulky, heavy, difficult to manipulate, and can wreak havoc on the foundation of your home. The result is a completely natural-looking stone at a fraction of real stone's weight and cost. Thus, regular dental visits are essential for maintenance of your oral health and general health. What separates Stone telex from the competition? Occasional sweeping and wet mopping is all it really takes to keep your tile floor clean. Stone telex is based in the Greater Toronto Area and works with clients throughout Ontario, from Ottawa and Cornwall, to Sarnia and Windsor, to Thunder Bay. Tile is more work to install and can be more costly initially than carpet. Regular vacuuming and spot cleaning will keep it clean but carpet needs to be shampooed occasionally to keep it fresh and looking new. Our parents' generation perfected their garden and shrubs. No problem.

A Visit to Villedieu-les-poeles
With its granite architecture and picturesque quaint cobbled passageways and courtyards , Villedieu is a fascinating place to visit. The original copper techniques are still used today and it is possible to visit the Bell Foundry, the Atelier du Cuivre (Copper Workshop) and the Maison de l'Etain (House of Pewter), all of which are both interesting and educational.
It is always a pleasure to return to this quaint little town which displays a large variety of antique shops and some of the best cafés and eating places in Lower Normandy. There is so much to see that you could well spend the whole day there. If you have the time it is recommended that you visit the working copper shop. We saw this sign and had to go in – Atelier du Cuivre. It was a combination museum and workshop and was in full swing with men pounding madly on sheets of copper while others were melting and pouring it. We signed up for the tour which was very interesting. I must admit a highlight was the owner's dog. He had a tennis ball and had free run of the workshop. He was amazing and he never went where he wasn't allowed. Great fun!
Every Tuesday throughout the year Villedieu has one of the best markets in Manche. At the height of the summer season the town is packed with both locals and visitors, and there are stalls selling everything from local farm produce to mens' and ladies' clothes! The market finishes around lunchtime with the smell of barbecued food usually proving irresistable.
There are plenty of good eating places in the town. Le Fruitier is just one example. This large hotel now boasts a Bistro serving excellent lunchtime snacks and a restaurant that offers both comfort and some excellent local Normandy cuisine. If you get the chance – sample the lamb. A real treat!!

I really did think that this would be obvious but it seems like a blinding flash to some so I thought I'd just put it out there. Maybe my thinking is skewed but I have canvassed a number of people and they seem to think it makes sense.
The idea first occurred to me some four years when Cisco Corporation announced they were shedding some 2000 jobs globally. I've always held up Cisco to my sales teams as a great example of professionalism and I know that Cisco go to a lot of trouble to employ good people so it just didn't make sense to get rid of them.
The issue comes about when the company forecasts a reduction in profits. The board and company shareholders do not want to report a downturn in profits without seeing a planned reduction in costs. As many will tell you, the most valuable asset of a company is its people so somehow this translates to: the greatest saving is to get rid of as many people as possible. It doesn't seem to matter that in many countries the balance sheet has to carry a huge extraordinary hit due to the layoffs. Just as long as the CEO and Board can show the analysts that they will return to a greater profit due to the reduction in costs.
Now a company like Cisco, or Telstra, has invested in many technologies and patents over the years and is often not able to justify an investment, which may not be core to its current business, to develop that technology.
So instead of taking a hit that can never show a return, why not take the people and the liability of the retrenchments and turn them into an investment in a new company which may eventually show a positive return to the balance sheet? There could even be a case for a Federal government tax incentive given that it will be collecting more tax from both the existing and new companies and won't have the liability of more people on unemployment benefits.
I'm sure that there will be some complexity that I'm missing, such as how it might work for small companies, but surely this will generate a more positive outcome.
I welcome any feedback.

The early teen-years of the 21st Century have spawned a handful of fiercely non-conformist…
The early teen-years of the 21st Century have spawned a handful of fiercely non-conformist rap crews. Cliques like Odd Future, Pro Era, Bruiser Brigade and A$ap Mob ostensibly aim to convey individualistic spirit via the strength-in-numbers approach of the collective. 'Black Hippy' is the conglomerate name for Ab-Soul, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock and leader Kendrick Lamar.
Not to be confused with TDE (Top Dawg Entertainment, which includes Black Hippy, SZA and the prodigious Isaiah Rashad), Black Hippy differs in scope and purpose from the aforementioned collectives. Its members didn't grow up skating together and – owing to a common preoccupation with their respective careers – the chances of seeing a collaborative LP is becoming increasingly unlikely. This list does not necessarily present the ten best songs across the crew's repertoire. Objectively speaking, that could have very easily resulted in an even more Kendrick-dominated exposition even though the number one track would have remained the same.
Instead, to celebrate Kendrick's sold-out tour to South Africa and in anticipation of a new Schoolboy Q release dropping before March, we present a synopsis of the talent, narrative prowess, masterful sampling and ego that shapes the hip hop powerhouse that is Black Hippy.
10. Swimming Pools (Black Hippy Remix) – Kendrick Lamar
While Swimming Pools (Drank) might not be Kendrick's definitive track, it was the moment that propelled him to mainstream superstardom. This remix is one of the rare tracks that feature the entire Black Hippy collective, and they feed off each other seamlessly. It showcases the strength of a group that is bound by mutual talent rather than mere friendship.
9. Hood Gone Love It (Feat. Kendrick Lamar) – Jay Rock
Despite being the first member of Black Hippy signed by TDE, Jay Rock's apparent state of inertia seems at odds with his high-flying colleagues. But those doubts are put to bed with his standout track, 'Hood Gone Love It', whose killer chorus and in-your-face badassery are tailor-made to be blasted out your car windows.
8. Rolling Stone (Feat. Ab-Soul, Kendrick Lamar and Jay Rock) – Schoolboy Q
Black Hippy have a knack for great samples. Here, 'Time of the Season' by The Zombies gets reworked into the frame for the thumping, debaucherous monolith that is 'Rolling Stone'. It is the best of the few songs that the collective have released together.
7. ADHD – Kendrick Lamar
Section 80's 'ADHD' is perhaps the most widely recognisable Kendrick track after 'Swimming Pools' and 'Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe'. By implication then, it is Black Hippy's third biggest hit. Besides Kendrick's trademark-twanged 'fuck that', the song offered a distinctly West Coast beat that is in no way a throwback.
6. The Spiteful Chant (Feat. ScHoolBoy Q) – Kendrick Lamar
"Everybody heard that I fuck with Dre/And they wanna tell me, I made it/N*gga I ain't made shit, if he gave me a handout/I'mma take his wrist and break it". These lines leave no room for the early criticism of Kendrick piggybacking on Dre's influence. The grandiose beat is a statement of intent that is matched, not amplified, by his fuck-the-world attitude and singular cadence. Kendrick doesn't do shout-outs.
5. Sacrilegious – Schoolboy Q
Schoolboy Q opened 2012's Habits and Contradictions with the theatrically produced 'Sacrilegious'. The bass-centric spaghetti western beat provides an apt climate for a mellowed out flow from the college-educated rapper that appears more sophisticated upon each return listen.
4. Blessed (Feat. Kendrick Lamar and Ab-Soul) – Schoolboy Q
'Blessed' is the most revealing song on Schoolboy Q's Habits & Contradictions, and his insightful verses are delivered with his signature unpredictability and prowess. But if anyone can do unpredictability, it's Kendrick Lamar. His verse on 'Blessed' shows off an understanding of timing that is unmatched in hip hop, and – in terms of flow – is the best Kendrick verse on this list
3. Terrorist Threats (Feat. Danny Brown) – Ab-Soul
Danny Brown could have very easily stolen the spotlight here. Ab-Soul, however, delivers a stellar performance to deprive him of the belt. The track's belligerent message and proclamation of bravado lit up Soul's Control System and was where the oddball of the TDE bunch announced his raw and as yet untapped talent to a wider audience. Moreover, this track furnished newcomers with a better understanding of Soul's particular niche within the Black Hippy squad.
2. Money Trees (Feat. Jay Rock) – Kendrick Lamar
A highlight on the behemoth, Good Kid m.A.A.d City, 'Money Trees' features an expertly sampled Beach House cut and Jay Rock's finest moment. On the 2012 single 'The Heart Pt. 3 (Will You Let It Die?)' Kendrick referred to the latter as his 'older brother'. This dynamic is reflected in 'Money Trees' as Kendrick offers a broadly alternative perspective of hope, ambition and the American Dream. Jay Rock follows through, wiser, with a balls-to-the-wall, gritty depiction of lived experience. The contrast is a golden formula.
1. Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst – Kendrick Lamar
'Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst' is a lesson in storytelling. It tells two separate tales, both of which are racked with tragedy and are narrated from the perspective of a speaker addressing Kendrick. And yet these tales are antithetical in tone – the first is a plea from the speaker to have his story told, whereas the second is an angry, hard-hitting demand for her story not to be. But Kendrick expresses them both with an unparalleled level of empathy and understanding.
As these two tales blend into a third, another aspect of Kendrick's talent emerges: his self-awareness. His story becomes his own plea: a plea to be heard, a plea to have his story told and a plea to deserve the first two. Each phase of his story has its own transformations, and these are mirrored by changes in Kendrick's voice, by his changing intonations and his varied cadence. It is the definitive song by a rapper whose delivery is second to none, and whose storytelling ability is truly unique.

"I was bullied for Osama bin Laden, I've been called a terrorist," said 16-year-old Jameel, a junior. "We've been called terrorists, go back home and make bombs in your basement or you're going to come back and shoot up the school ‒ and it's just like, people kept pushing our buttons."

The Siams' mother says the issue has been "festering for years," but has increased over time, leaving the boys very self aware in school, WIVB reported.
"You don't know if someone is going to come up behind you or come right up to you and say something," said 15-year-old Adam, a sophomore. "You always have to watch where you are, what you're doing, who's around you. You always gotta have a watch out."

Such angst has lead to numerous fights between the brothers and their bullies, but the tensions transferred from the school yard to their front yard last week when the Siam family home was pelted with eggs and rocks, damaging doors and windows.
"I can't live a normal life now, especially how they came to my house," said Jameel. "It's not only at school that I need to be afraid, it's that I have to be afraid everywhere I am now."
The brothers have also been bullied on social media, with their tormentors posting an image on Instagram showing an American flag alongside an Islamic flag with the title "Siam Slayer" on it, among other things, the Buffalo News reported.

After their demands for the picture to be taken down went unanswered, a fight broke out in school between the boys and the person they say uploaded the image, which led to the suspension of all three.
The brothers are now the focus of an expulsion hearing by school administrators, which Rehab Siam, the boys' mother, says is unfair and the school should have acted sooner to stop the bullying.
"This has been festering for years now," said Mrs. Siam, who acknowledges her sons' bad behavior too. "They've [the school] never looked into the whole serious issue."

The brothers have reportedly filed at least two previous reports with local police over the racial comments made against them ‒ and another after their house was vandalized.
"First, the harassment was with Osama bin Laden, then with ISIS, and now it has been getting even worse with Trump," Mrs. Siam said. "We're not denying the fight, but the school didn't do anything. The Instagram stayed up for two days after the fight."
The school was due to hold the Siam's disciplinary hearing on Monday, but it has been pushed back to Friday. Police say they are investigating the attack on the Siam house.

It takes a lot of manpower and many hard hours to develop a video game from the ground up, and the highly anticipated BioShock Infinite is no exception.
Developer Irrational Games put out this infographic to show fans and gamers just how much time and effort went into the development of BioShock Infinite. For example, the script for the game has 20,000 more words than the average novel along with 10,000 lines of dialogue. During the game's multi-year development, 18 staffers became parents and 40,000 cans of pop (or 3,750 gallons) were consumed in the Irrational Games' offices. Perhaps most impressive is that BioShock Infinite is so ridiculously complex that the game comprises of 631 miles worth of code, or 150 miles further than Irrational's Boston offices to Washington D.C.

After a third-party app mined and then sold user information, Facebook has begun cracking down on just what information those apps can use. Two weeks after the Cambridge Analytica scandal broke, Facebook shared several changes to third-party app access and said additional adjustments are in store. The changes come with an updated count of around 87 million Facebook users affected by the Cambridge Analytica data scandal, a number that was originally at "more than" 50 million.
On March 21, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg promised an app investigation and audit, promising to ban any apps that were found to have or abuse excessive amounts of personal data. Now, nearly two months later, the social network is giving us an update on that process. Thus far, "thousands of apps have been investigated and around 200 have been suspended," Facebook noted. "Where we find evidence that these or other apps did misuse data, we will ban them and notify people via this website. It will show people if they or their friends installed an app that misused data before 2015 — just as we did for Cambridge Analytica."
That said, there are still many more apps under investigation, the company notes, and alas, several "may have misused people's Facebook data." However, the social media giant is promising to invest heavily to ensure that the investigation is "as thorough and timely as possible."
The investigation isn't the only measure Facebook has taken to protect its users. As of Monday, April 9, users began seeing an app control link at the top of their News Feed. Clicking the link lets users see what apps they use and the information shared with the apps. Users can remove apps no longer wanted. Facebook will also tell people if their data may have been improperly shared with Cambridge Analytica. Facebook previewed the app information messages with the screen images below.
The changes eliminate access to some features entirely while modifying others. Search tools that allow you to type a phone number or email into the Facebook search bar and find the person associated with that information will be disabled entirely. Facebook says that, while the feature simplified searches with common names and language barriers, the same tool could also be abused to find a name to connect with a phone number or email.
Several other categories see reduced access. Adding a Facebook event to another app will no longer allow that app to access the guest list or posts on the event's wall. Leaving info about the event intact allows apps to add the event to a calendar, for example, Facebook says.
For Facebook Groups, any app that wants to access group data will now require approval not just from an administrator, but Facebook too. Even when granted access, the names of the profile photos of the group members will be excluded from the data.
Apps that access information from Pages, which are often used for tasks like scheduling posts and responding to messages and comments, will need Facebook's approval. The network says the apps need a variety of information to provide those tools, but in order to ensure that information is necessary, the network will approve any third-party app first before allowing access to the Pages API.
Requirements for apps using Facebook data as a login are also tightening, with personal details — including political views, relationship status, work history, and others — excluded from the data. Apps requesting to see other data, such as the posts likes and photos, will need to be approved by Facebook. The apps using Facebook Login will also be automatically removed after three months of inactivity on the app.
That call data that surprised Android users will remain an opt-in feature. Those logs will be deleted after one year and will use fewer details, eliminating the time of the call, Facebook says. The tool doesn't monitor the content of texts or calls, Facebook says.
Instagram's Platform API depreciation was already scheduled, but Facebook is moving up that timeline with a handful of changes effective immediately. The changes eliminated the ability for apps to get information about follows, followers, relationships, comments and other data.
Updated on May 14: Added news that Facebook has removed 200 apps found to violate data policy.

The Gospel of Jerome – Realization 1:1Posted on by Jeronimo

Europcar launches new social media campaign
Europcar, the leader in car hire services in Europe for leisure and business users, has launched an innovative new social media campaign for the summer.
Using YouTube and Facebook, the Europcar Caraoke Competition sets out to find the best in-car karaoke singer in the country – with a grand prize of a Fiat 500 car plus weekly prizes up for grabs. The campaign is another example of Europcar's thought leading marketing strategy, following 2011's multi-faceted freeDeliver campaign, engaging customers and social media savvy consumers alike.
The Caraoke campaign plays on the karaoke culture and builds on the huge popularity of talent shows. With so many singers and wannabe performers entering talent shows but falling short of their big break, Europcar's Caraoke Competition provides a great opportunity for the more eclectic singers and entertainers to prove their worth - and drive away in a cool Fiat 500.
The Social Media campaign will be focused on promoting the talent show style competition and will be hosted on Facebook, utilising the YouTube API feed.
The Europcar Caraoke Competition comprises two aspects to encourage maximum engagement amongst the public and inspire them to show off their star qualities. The idea is to get people recording their favourite song from a list of 10 classics including the Troggs hit, 'Wild Thing' and 'Dancing in the Moonlight' by Toploader' and then uploading their videos to YouTube.
The second part of the campaign aims to get consumers voting for their favourite videos and sharing them via Facebook. The performance with the most votes will win the Fiat 500.
In addition to the grand prize, a series of weekly prizes will be given out between July 25th and August 22nd including Amazon e-vouchers, Eastern Airways flights, an overnight stay plus dinner and breakfast at a Hand Picked Hotel, Garmin Sat Nav systems, Samsung Galaxy Tablets, Driving Experience packages and Spa Days at the luxurious 5 Star hotel resort Stoke Park. Weekly prize winners will be selected via a prize draw by Promo Veritas giving entrants more chances to win prizes.
Europcar will also be hosting two road show events to encourage shoppers to participate in the Caraoke Competition. These will take place in Bluewater, Kent on Saturday 28th July and the Bullring, Birmingham on Saturday August 11th. Europcar is urging people to make a date in their diaries to exhibit their talents by recording their videos at the events.
The totally interactive campaign reinforces Europcar's position as number one in the European car hire marketplace as it brings a more personal and friendly voice to the brand in a market where social interaction with car hire firms is usually only one way.
"Our job, as market leader is to set the standard across the board," said Ken McCall, Managing Director, Europcar UK Group. "From car hire to social media strategies and campaigns our objective is to keep Europcar at the forefront of the marketplace by implementing innovative techniques that drive the business forward and change consumer expectations of car hire.
"With Caraoke we aim to reach a new audience; raising awareness of Europcar's innovative car hire services to the social media savvy population."

Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood is nobody's babysitter
TIM SHERWOOD has warned his Tottenham dummies he is not their babysitter - and insisted he is here to stay.
Sherwood questioned his side's character after their 4-0 thrashing by Chelsea and expects a response against Benfica tonight.
But the Spurs boss claims he is already planning for the future - despite growing speculation he could be for the chop this summer.
Asked if he thought he was taking a risk by publicly slamming his flops, Sherwood said: "I'm a manager, not a babysitter.
"A lot of players here are playing for their future and I think they realise that now.
"They have that chance between now and the end of the season to prove they want to play for a giant club like Tottenham.
"I want players here who want to play for the club and they have between now and the end of the season to show that they are playing for their club and not for themselves.
"I'm a manager, not a babysitter"Tim Sherwood
"Anyone can play bad, can get outplayed - that's football - but what you cannot do is get outfought and out-desired. I do not want to see that happen again.
"I don't want to see a capitulation. I want to see the same desire and attitude from minute one to minute 95. I won't tolerate anything less than that and the players know that now."
Sherwood also had a pop at Spurs chairman Daniel Levy after the Chelsea game for failing to come out and back him publicly.
Levy has still not given him any assurances about his future despite the two men holding face-to-face talks this week.
But Sherwood insists he will not be buttoning his lip any time soon - despite the likes of Louis van Gaal waiting in the wings to replace him.
He said: "I'm never going to take a step back. I'm just going to shoot from the hip. That's what I'm like.
"I don't think I'm upsetting him. Daniel has known me for a long time and knew I wasn't suddenly going to turn into a mute, it wasn't going to happen.
"He knows the character I am and knows what he's getting. He's getting honesty. He gets a little bit more as well.
"Do I have his full support? I think so. I'm planning for next season. It's no good me planning for next season if someone else is coming in.
"I've not asked for any assurances. I've an 18-month contract and I expect to be here a lot longer than that."
