Postdoctoral position at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute:
Adult Heart Stem Cells and Cardiac Regenerative Medicine
Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, Darlinghurst, Sydney, and the University of New South Wales, Kensington, Sydney, Australia
The discovery of stem and progenitor cells in the adult heart has revolutionized the field of cardiac regenerative medicine. Heart failure is reaching epidemic proportions and this trend will continue in the developing world. Donor hearts are scarce and new therapies are desperately needed. The adult stem cell group at VCCRI focuses on the biology of a population of stem and progenitor cells present in the adult mouse heart that are multipotent for a range of mesodermal lineages and have the ability to self-renew. We are studying the molecular regulation of their stem cell status and how they might participate in heart repair after injury.
We are seeking on enthusiastic postdoctoral fellow who want to forge a career in stem cell biology. The Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute (VCCRI), Sydney, Australia, is an independent research organisation committed to excellence in basic and translational biomedical research that is affiliated with the University of New South Wales (UNSW). It is a member of a world-class medical research precinct that includes the Garvan Institute for Medical Research and the St. Vincent's Centre for Applied Medical Research.
Available Project
The fellow will join a group taking a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach to understanding cardiac stem cell biology. The project likely involves exploring the molecular basis and chromatin landscape of stem cell transitions, and a detailed analysis of the lineage fate of cardiac stem cells in normal and diseased hearts using Cre-Lox technology.
Requirements and Responsibilities
A PhD degree or equivalent and an excellent track record of scholarship and career ambition. Excellent verbal and written communication skills and a strong interest in innovative and interactive research are essential.
How to Apply
For applications please forward your CV and names of two references to: Prof. Richard P. Harvey (email@example.com; phone 02 9295 9620). Applications close 31 December 2012.
The VCCRI is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer and boasts a record of gender parity at all levels of the Organisation.

Carrera is Spanish for 'race'. Races are all about speed, technology, overtaking and, of course, about crossing the finishing line first! That's what makes Carrera so legendary.
We at Carrera see ourselves as providers of 'Motorsport at home', cooperating successfully with the automobile industry and international motor racing teams. So, for us it's a logical obligation to infuse our products with maximum racing excitement, entertainment and quality. We emphasise the shared experiences of stunning cars, fascinating technology and racing thrills enjoyed by people of many different ages.
Carrera is an exciting form of gaming that requires speedy skills, so if you fly off the track – you're out of the race.
Carrera cars are subjected to the same laws of physics as full-size racing and sports cars. Centrifugal force must be excellently counteracted with a perfectly-set centre of balance. Downforce is simulated by magnets and the right tyre compound provides maximum grip. Our junior drivers can also look forward to the challenges of loops and other action-stunt elements. Even the youngest drivers speed around the circuits with SuperMario or Lightning Mc Queen.
As a child I was proud to have beaten my father on the Carrera racetrack for the first time. Now I'm a father myself and still enjoy the excitement of racing with the kids. There's no age limit to the fun of Carrera, and it has been bringing together the generations for several decades.
Thank you for your interest in our brand. The entire Carrera team would like to wish you even more fun and high-speed action with our products.
Keep on racing!

In November 2011, OFN partnered with Starbucks to launch Create Jobs for USA, a unique initiative that leveraged the power of CDFIs to address the U.S. jobs crisis and help put people back to work. The initiative combined corporate donations and crowdfunding from individuals and small businesses to create and retain jobs. Banana Republic, Google Offers, Citi, MasterCard, and other companies also joined the effort.
Create Jobs for USA ran through December 2014. In three years, it raised more than $15.2 million in donations, which participating CDFIs turned into $105 million in financing for businesses to create or retain more than 5,000 jobs.
OFN has gathered lessons learned from the initiative to share in a series of reports that reflects on Create Jobs for USA and offers insights that CDFIs can use in their own job reporting efforts. Read the first two reports now.
How it Started
In 2011, Howard Schultz, chief executive officer of Starbucks Coffee Company, was eager to find a creative, inclusive, and swift way to address the country's unemployment crisis. But he needed a partner with a proven reputation for excellence and a history of creating jobs to join in the effort.
Starbucks teamed up with OFN, the leading network of CDFIs, community development financial institutions that lend and invest in economically distressed places in the U.S.
In November 2011 Starbucks and OFN formed a partnership to launch Create Jobs for USA, a philanthropic initiative to mobilize individuals, CDFIs, and corporations to address the troubling rise in unemployment that followed the Great Recession.
How it Worked
Create Jobs for USA combined corporate donations and crowdfunding to establish the Create Jobs for USA Fund. OFN managed the Fund and used the donations to award capital grants to 120 high-performing CDFIs across the country.
These CDFIs leveraged their Create Jobs for USA awards with additional loans from traditional banks, foundations, and other investors to make loans to community businesses. All of the donations went directly to loans for community businesses, and none were used for operating expenses.
In three years, Create Jobs for USA raised more than $15.2 million in donations.
Every $1 raised through the Create Jobs for USA Fund supported $7 in loans to small businesses, microenterprises, nonprofit organizations, commercial real estate developers, and housing developers.
The Impact it Had
CDFIs leveraged $15.2 million in donations into $105 million in lending to community businesses, which created or retained more than 5,000 jobs.
Where Donations Originated
Create Jobs for USA raised a total of $15.2 million from a diverse range of donors, including corporations, foundations, small businesses, nonprofits, and individuals.
The Starbucks Foundation seeded the Create Jobs for USA Fund with a $5 million donation. Major corporate supporters also included Google Offers, Banana Republic, and Citi, who each raised $1 million or more for the Fund. In addition, the Schultz Family Foundation donated $1 million on the first anniversary of the Create Jobs for USA initiative. Other corporations, small business, and nonprofits raised more than $600,000 for the Fund.
Individual donations totaled $3.5 million, the large majority of which was raised through the "Indivisible" wristbands program. Anyone who donated $5 online or at one of Starbucks' 7,000 retail locations received an all American made "Indivisible" wristband, of which 100% of the donation went to Create Jobs for USA. The program offered individuals and corporations a way of showing their support, with more than 800,000 people receiving wristbands through individual and corporate contributions.
Starbucks also generated an additional $1 million for the Create Jobs for USA Fund by launching an "Indivisible" line of products—coffee, mugs, tumblers—sold in their retail locations through early 2013. For every purchase of an "Indivisible" product, Starbucks made a donation to the Fund.
Types of Businesses Supported
Create Jobs for USA funds supported community businesses, which create and retain jobs in low-income, low-wealth, and other disadvantaged communities. These include small businesses, microenterprises, nonprofit organizations (such as charter schools, day care, and senior centers), commercial real estate, and affordable housing.
Take a look at some of the Create Jobs for USA videos and success stories to read about the different businesses the initiative has supported in urban, rural, and native communities across the U.S.
Lessons Learned
OFN is publishing a series of publications to report on the results and lessons learned from the initiative. The reports focus on the overall lessons learned about Create Jobs for USA, as well as specific lessons learned and best practices related to collecting, tracking, and analyzing data on job creation and retention.
Find a Loan
Community businesses seeking a loan can refer to the list of Awardees and OFN's CDFI Locator to identify a local CDFI that may be able help.
These supporters have stood up and said they believe in Americans and want to help them get back to work. Read about their commitments to the program below.

OFN is publishing a series of reports to provide an overview of results as well as lessons learned from the initiative. By publishing this series, we hope to demonstrate the successful collaboration of many partners, and how community lenders are contributing to solving the jobs crisis in the U.S. by creating and retaining jobs in underserved urban, rural, and native communities.
"Six Lessons Learned from Create Jobs for USA," published in May 2014 provides an overview of results of Create Jobs for USA, a successful initiative launched in November 2011 by Starbucks and Opportunity Finance Network to help address the jobs crisis. The first in a series of three reports about Create Jobs for USA, this publication shares the lessons learned from the initiative.
"CDFI Practices in Jobs Data Collection and Tracking: Lessons Learned from Create Jobs for USA" published in October 2014 looks at the data collection efforts behind Create Jobs for USA, sharing what we learned, best practices, and sample CDFI data collection forms and processes. The goal of the paper is to help improve the quality of jobs data collected by the opportunity finance industry.
We'd like to thank Member CDFIs who participated in this initiative and helped make it a success. We appreciate your participation: your work to create and retain jobs and to tell the story of CDFIs and the community businesses they serve gave meaning to the effort and helped create or retain more than 5,000 American jobs. We're also grateful for the strong corporate leadership of Starbucks, without whose vision, leadership, and support this initiative would not have been possible.
Success Stories
Create Jobs for USA helped generate thousands of jobs in communities across the country. Below is a selection of success stories.
Northgate Market, San Diego, CA
This loan and supermarket opening created 118 full-time jobs, four part-time jobs, and 40 construction jobs, with approximately 25% of all jobs held by local residents.
City Heights, San Diego has a high concentration of lower-income businesses and households, and is home to an ethnically-diverse population. Thanks to a loan from the California FreshWorks Fund (CFWF), managed by NCB Capital Impact, the 119,000 residents of City Heights now have better access to fresh and healthy foods near their homes. NCB Capital Impact disbursed $8.5 million for the development of a new 42,625 square foot, full-service Northgate Gonzalez Market.
Northgate Gonzalez Market is a family-owned chain of supermarkets that was started by the Gonzalez family in 1980. The family currently operates 33 stores located in the southern California counties of Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego. Northgate's markets are full service supermarkets, focused on serving predominately Latino communities. This loan and supermarket opening created 118 full-time jobs, four part-time jobs, and 40 construction jobs, with approximately 25% of all jobs held by local residents.
E.L. Haynes Public Charter School, Washington D.C.
With this expansion, Haynes will be able to serve 400 additional students in 10th-12th grades.
In 2012, TRF provided a $3.5 million loan to E.L. Haynes Public Charter School in Washington, DC, to fund the expansion of their campus to include a high school. Haynes currently serves a diverse student body (52% Black, 28% Hispanic, 18% White, and 2% Asian) of more than 800 students in grades Pre-K through 9th, more than 60% of whom qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. With this expansion, Haynes will be able to serve 400 additional students in 10th-12th grades.
The project has created 75 construction jobs, and once the addition is completed, the school will create 42 new full-time jobs and 20 part-time jobs ranging from teaching positions, to custodians, to administrative staff.
Bitterroot Gymnastics, Missoula, MT
David was able to lease an industrial warehouse in Missoula and transform it into a thriving business that provides children and families throughout the community a safe space in which to learn and practice. The larger space also allowed David to open a movement-based preschool, expanding the options for education in Missoula.
Dedication. Persistence. Teamwork. David Stark teaches these qualities every day at Bitterroot Gymnastics. He bought the business in 2004 after years of learning the ropes—first as a student and then as an employee. By the time he became the owner, he knew just how to realize the gym's potential. By applying his strong teaching principles and a well-thought-out business strategy, he was quickly able to reduce costs, improve service, and grow the gym into a successful enterprise. In fact, he grew the business so well that he was soon in need of a much larger and more costly space. But David couldn't find the money to finance the new gym. Solid profits, great income potential, and a steady customer base weren't enough to overcome the lack of strong collateral and guarantees needed to qualify for traditional financing. Still, David kept knocking on doors. When he went to Montana CDC, his timing was excellent. The CDFI had just introduced a new lending product, which allows strong businesses and entrepreneurs who show the potential for success to borrow money with little or no collateral. Due to the loan from Montana CDC, David was able to lease an industrial warehouse in Missoula and transform it into a thriving business that provides children and families throughout the community a safe space in which to learn and practice. The larger space also allowed David to open a movement-based preschool, expanding the options for education in Missoula. Additionally, by opening the new facility, David created four new jobs—the gym hired one full-time preschool instructor, and three part-time gym instructors.
Lawrence CommunityWorks, Lawrence, MA
The recent global recession has left the city with high unemployment (at 17.8%, it is double the statewide level) and one of the lowest median incomes in the state.
Lawrence CommunityWorks (LCW) is a nonprofit community development corporation working to transform and revitalize the physical, economic, and social landscape of Lawrence, MA. Like many post-industrial cities in America, Lawrence has struggled for some time to re-invent itself for the 21st century. The recent global recession has left the city with high unemployment (at 17.8%, it is double the statewide level) and one of the lowest median incomes in the state. However, LCW has embarked on a major community revitalization project with Union Crossing.
The Union Crossing project is being built on the site of a former foundry and cotton mill on the riverfront. It is a 240,000 sq. ft. building on 5.5 acres, and is being converted into new environmentally sustainable housing units and commercial/retail space. An anchor tenant will be the Lawrence CommunityWorks Financial Stability Center, a project supported by the United Way, which focuses on economic empowerment to break the cycle of inter-generational poverty. By bundling housing and financial opportunities under one roof, Union Crossing Financial Stability Center follows similarly successful models that remove obstacles for families in need while offering an integrated, one-stop service delivery methods of community revitalization.
Phase 1 of the project has just completed, and comprises 60 affordable, energy-efficient housing units subsidized under the Low Income Housing Tax Credit program. Boston Community Capital provided a $492,000 construction bridge loan for the envelope to the building's retail space, which ensured the building could receive its Certificate of Occupancy in time for the official launch of the housing on December 13, 2011. The next phase of the project, which Boston Community Capital expects to finance, includes commercial business space being built under the New Market Tax Credit program. The project is expected to bring 350 construction jobs, and the commercial space over 200 new permanent jobs.
Resevoir Hill, Baltimore, MD
The loan led to the creation of eight apartments for people with a household income less than 80% of area median income and the creation of 16 full-time jobs for people in the community.
Moses G. Parker is a former Bethlehem Steel worker whose grandmother inspired his interest in real estate development. "They won't be making any more land," she said, "so you'd best invest in it." And that's exactly what Moses Parker did. In 1985, he started buying and rehabbing single-family properties for low- and moderate-income people. Twenty-seven years later, Parker is still in business, owning and managing the properties he has developed.
In 2006, Parker purchased his first commercial property, a three-story building that he wanted transform into eight, low-income residential apartments. Located in the national historic residential neighborhood of Reservoir Hill, the property had been vacant for several years and needed major repair, as well as preservation of its late 19th century architectural features. Parker sought to finance this work through traditional financial institutions but traditional banks turned him down. A word-of-mouth referral brought Moses to Baltimore Community Lending, which provided him a $500,000 loan to rehab this property. The loan led to the creation of eight apartments for people with a household income less than 80% of area median income and the creation of 16 full-time jobs for people in the community.
When asked about the most beneficial aspects of his work, Parker responded, "I like to create housing that I would live in—livable housing that is affordable. I like providing jobs, too, and this project will do that."
Lakes Community Health Center, Northwestern, WI
With the expansion, the clinic was able to increase its capacity from 6,500 to 12,000 patients, many of whom had to travel long distances to access care. The expansion also allowed the health center to create 10 full-time jobs.
The Lakes Community Health Center is a Federally Qualified Health Care Center (FQHC) that serves four rural counties in northwestern Wisconsin with clinics in high poverty areas in Iron River and in Ashland. The majority of the health center's patients are low-income and more than half are children. In 2010, The Lakes received a grant to build an addition to its Iron River location, but outgrew the space in less than two years because of the increasing demand for service. In March of 2012, IFF made a $465,000 loan to the organization to double the clinic's size, and it also provided a $50,000 loan for medical equipment. With the expansion, the clinic was able to increase its capacity from 6,500 to 12,000 patients, many of whom had to travel long distances to access care. The expansion also allowed the health center to create 10 new, professional, full-time jobs, including positions for medical providers, clinical staff, and administrative support staff.
Next Chapter Bookstore, Barre, VT
"Community Capital of Vermont was able to come through with funding for my loan when conventional methods of borrowing were not an option for me. They helped me realize a dream that I have had for years."
Cynthia Duprey always wanted to own a bookstore. But when her family home flooded in May 2011, she put her dream on hold. The flood not only displaced Cynthia and her family, but also damaged her credit. As she started to rebuild her life (she closed on a home in January, 2012) she also approached Community Capital of Vermont for a loan to open her dream bookstore. This local CDFI provided Cynthia a $40,000 loan because of her deep roots in the community and to help promote retail in a struggling downtown district. Cynthia will soon open Next Chapter bookstore on Main Street in Barre, Vermont, and the opening will allow her to realize her dream, help revitalize a struggling downtown area, and create two full-time jobs in the community.
American Mug and Stein, East Liverpool, OH
When local banks said no to providing Clyde a loan, a CDFI—and Create Jobs for USA capital grant Awardee—The Progress Fund, said yes, and gave him the $160,000 loan he needed to increase production, providing jobs and hope for the small town.
Clyde McClellan, owner of American Mug and Stein, has one of the last standing pottery companies in the area, and its sales have been suffering due to the recession. It was just getting by, handling small orders with a very small crew. Until recently.
Starbucks, the coffee giant, was looking for a US plant that would make mugs as part of its Indivisible line of American-made merchandise sold in company-owned stores and online to support the Create Jobs for USA initiative. A mutual contact introduced Starbucks to American Mug and Stein, and it seemed like a perfect fit, except for one thing: Because of the size of the initial order for mugs, McClellan needed financing to expand to meet the demands of the increased business.
When local banks said no to providing Clyde a loan, a CDFI—and Create Jobs for USA capital grant Awardee—The Progress Fund, said yes, and gave him the $160,000 loan he needed to increase production, providing jobs and hope for the small town of East Liverpool. The Progress Fund's loan and Starbucks' large standing monthly mug order has created eight new full-time jobs in an area where more than 10 percent of working-age residents are unemployed.
Jalen Rose Leadership Academy, Detroit, MI
The loan will allow for the expansion of the school to accommodate 480 students in grades nine through 12.
According to a recent study by Michigan State University, only 32 percent of Detroit's public high school students graduate in four years. Yet bringing high-quality education to Detroit's disenfranchised inner city isn't easy. Traditional banks are reluctant to finance new public schools—particularly innovative ones—because of the perceived risk in investing in low-income community development. So when Operation Graduation, a non-profit organization committed to providing Detroit's children with more and better educational opportunities, began raising money to acquire and renovate a facility for the Jalen Rose Leadership Academy, they turned to NCB Capital Impact, a CDFI with a long record of successfully financing promising charter schools in low-income communities.
The result was a $1.1 million loan that allowed Operation Graduation to begin renovations on the Jalen Rose Leadership Academy, a new charter high school in midtown Detroit serving approximately 120 ninth graders in its first year of operation, 80 percent of whom qualify for free or reduced price lunches. The loan will allow for the expansion of the school to accommodate 480 students in grades nine through 12. It will also help create 13 new permanent jobs at the school. Named after co-founder Jalen Rose, a former professional basketball player from Detroit and current ESPN analyst, the charter school has received support from multiple sources, including Michigan Future, a group of area foundation and business leaders with a mission to create more high-quality schools in Detroit. The Academy has also partnered with the University of Detroit Mercy, which will allow Jalen Rose students to take college-level courses, and Jeep, which will offer mentoring and other opportunities.
Impact Makers, Richmond, VA
VCC, along with six mission investors, provided funding that enabled Impact Makers to create 26 full-time jobs and recruit the best and brightest talent in the field.
Michael Pirron, founder and chief executive officer of Impact Makers, an IT and management consulting firm in Richmond, VA, enjoys competition—and is good at it. His firm recently posted a three-year growth that earned it a place on Inc. magazine's list of the 500 fastest-growing private companies. Tremendous growth aside, what really makes the company stand out among competitors is its business model. A socially minded for-profit without shareholders, Impact Makers donates its profits—and offers pro-bono consulting—to local charities.
Pirron realized the next step for his business, if it's to continue making an impact competitively and charitably, is expansion. A business partner connected him to Virginia Community Capital (VCC), which shares Impact Makers' commitment to social responsibility. VCC, along with six mission investors, provided funding that enabled Impact Makers to create 26 full-time jobs and recruit the best and brightest talent in the field. As a result, the firm has already doubled sales projections for the year, forecasting good returns for the company and its nonprofit beneficiaries.
Housing Partnership, Louisville, KY
The property's nonprofit developer, Housing Partnership, needed a partner that could provide permanent equity as well as construction financing, but most investors were unwilling to participate in such a small deal.
FAHE closed a $716,000 construction loan to transform a historic Catholic school building into a 24-unit apartment building for seniors in Louisville, with the help of a capital grant from Create Jobs for USA.
The property's nonprofit developer, Housing Partnership, needed a partner that could provide permanent equity as well as construction financing, but most investors were unwilling to participate in such a small deal. By applying FAHE's expertise in rental housing for rural communities, the developers get the capital they need and investors get a reliable return.
The project will break ground and begin construction in January and will employ 131 workers during construction and preserve 23 jobs through ongoing management, maintenance, and supportive services.
Sister Sky, Spokane, WA
Sister Sky products share Native American herbal wisdom with a worldwide audience in an authentic and respectful manner that promotes harmony, balance, education, sustainability, and cultural sharing.

The products, including body wash, lotion, shampoo, conditioner, and soap, are formulated to be gentle to the skin, with no mineral oil or petroleum products, they are paraben- and lanolin-free, biodegradable, and not tested on animals. Their high-quality products featuring eco-friendly packaging are in high demand by such groups as a national hotel amenities products distributor, which gave a contract to the Spokane-based company.
In anticipation of production growth, Sister Sky approached a traditional financing institution for a loan in September of 2011, but Monica and Marina were turned down, so they approached Craft3 in first quarter 2012. Craft3 provided them a $300,000 loan which will expand Sister Sky's capacity to serve existing tribal gaming properties and expand into regional and national hotel chains. Craft3's loan allowed the borrower to capitalize on their improved business model, and create one new full-time position.
Brookford Farm, Canterbury, NH
The loans saved 10 jobs, are creating a handful of construction jobs, and will create five part-time seasonal jobs, all while preserving open land and encouraging sustainable family farming.
For four years, organic farmers Luke and Catarina Mahoney—owners of Brookford Farm—provided residents throughout New Hampshire's seacoast with healthy, natural, locally-grown food. Then they learned that the lease on their farmland wouldn't be renewed. The New Hampshire Community Loan Fund (Community Loan Fund) provided a loan to help the couple buy a parcel of land and renovate an existing dairy farm there to build a new Brookford Farm. Community Loan Fund also provided a subsequent loan to finance their new equipment needs. The loans saved 10 jobs, are creating a handful of construction jobs, and will create five part-time seasonal jobs, all while preserving open land and encouraging sustainable family farming.

Well it takes my breath away!
I never think of Funke and the Two Tone Baby as an overt story-teller in his songs – obviously there are stories in there, but the lyrics are obtuse – they don't spell things out (that for me combined with the masterclass in multi-instrumental multi-tasking is a big part of the appeal!). So you could be forgiven for mistaking Bella's Kiss as being a passionate tribute to the breathtakingly good kissing technique of a lass called Bella.
It's certainly something I fell foul of, with Bella rhyming with Ella it even took on a degree of soppy significance. It was at Deerstock that before playing it Funke casually introduced it like this: 'here's a song about a Hungarian serial killer' – at the time I was looking forward to a new song, only to be faced with the confusion of a familiar tune that I thought I already knew well. Being a song-story geek I took to Google almost immediately – and unearthed, well, a pretty disturbing tale.
Bella's Kiss is about Béla Kiss. Born in 1877, he was a tinsmith who lived in Czinkota (then it would've been a town in its own right, now part of Budapest) since 1900. In 1912 – according to some reports after his wife Marie, fifteen years his junior, left him for another man called Paul Bikari. Kiss, well thought of in the local community, probably illicited great sympathy from friends and neighbours when he confessed they'd run away together.

Blue Man Group Celebrates 25 Years – November 17th is now Blue Man Day!
City of Orlando Declare Nov. 17, 2016 as "Blue Man Group Day"
TWEET IT: Celebrating#25YrsofBlueMan, @OrangeCoFL & @citybeautiful declare 11/17 as @BlueManGroup Day! blueman.com/25
Twenty-five years ago on this day (Nov. 17), a creative collaboration among friends led to the first euphoric and historic Blue Man Group performance at the Astor Place Theatre in New York.
Locally, both Orange County and the City of Orlando have officially declared Nov. 17, 2016 "Blue Man Group Day" in celebration of the group daring to live in full color for 25 years. Orange County Mayor Teresa Jacobs joined the Blue Men for an official proclamation ceremony last night (Nov. 16) at Universal Orlando Resort. Continuing the celebration, Universal Orlando Resort will illuminate its iconic entryway arches blue for the evening tonight (Nov. 17).
Fans may keep up with Blue Man Group through Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or the hashtag #DareToLive.
About Blue Man Group
As Blue Man Group celebrates 25 years of living in full color, the global entertainment phenomenon is inventive as ever with numerous projects and appearances in the creative pipeline. In 2016 alone the group released a new studio album, published their first-ever book, embarked on a World Tour and much more.
The company is best known for the award-winning Blue Man Group show, performed in over 20 countries and seen by more than 35 million people worldwide since 1991. A dynamic combination of music, comedy and technology, the show appeals to a broad range of age groups and cultural backgrounds. It is continually refreshed with new music, fresh stories, custom instruments and state-of-the-art technology.
The company developed through a creative collaboration among three close friends, Chris Wink, Phil Stanton and Matt Goldman on Manhattan's Lower East Side. Blue Man Group now has permanent theatrical productions in Las Vegas, Orlando, Boston, Chicago, New York, Berlin, and a World Tour.
This creative collective is part of the pop culture zeitgeist. Beyond the stage show, they have toured the globe with the "Megastar World Tour" rock concert parody, released 6 albums, including the latest album, THREE, and the Grammy-nominated Audio, released their first-ever book, Blue Man World, and contributed to numerous film and TV scores. They've served as the face of branding campaigns for Intel and TIM/Brasil and appeared countless times on hit shows like "The Tonight Show", "Arrested Development", "Ellen", "Schlag den Raab" (Germany), "WOWOW" (Japan), and "Caldeirão do Huck" (Brasil).

I recently added more security to my Google Mail, this meant that all devices/email clients the emails were linked to had to be modified to accommodate the security. No problems occurred with the email clients and my Android devices accepted my primary address with no problem. However, an issue arose with my second account. I followed the verifications steps but was always met with this error:
"Can't establish a reliable connection to the server.
"This could be a temporary problem or your phone may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
I did not fancy calling Customer Care so turned to people of the internet but nothing worked, nor did I want to factory reset my devices. For a few days I was scratching my head wondering why. The advices given were:
- Factory reset (Note: I didn't try this but it didn't work for others who did)
- Log into Youtube, then try GMail again (Note: I had sync problems)
- Make sure the time and date on device were correct (Note: Date and time were correct from the start of this process)
- Taking out sim card, then reinsert (Note: My tablet doesn't have a SIM card slot, with that said it didn't work for my phone)
Attach your device to your computer via USB, check the email on GMail and follow the steps.
Hopefully you've killed two birds with one stone; fixed your email account as well as being able to sign-in to YouTube without problems. :)

I want to show you how I store all of my ribbon. This, by no means, is the "best" way to store something as valuable as ribbon/string/trim. It is what works for me right now.
In the bottom of one of the biggest baskets, I have a plastic container that holds all of Oma Miller's vintage ric-rac and trims. I LOVE these vintage trims.
Then I sort all of the ribbons, by color, into ziploc bags. Because I have lot, I have to make sure to smoosh all of the air out of the bags so they will fit in the basket! The large bag on the right contains all of the trims that don't fit in a category. The bag on the bottom, second from the right, holds elastic. I keep any "glittery/sparkly" trim in their own separate bag.
I then put all of the bags into the basket and slide it into the unit. I don't store Christmas ribbon in this. I keep it with the Christmas wrappings.

I understand the science behind getting an extra day in February every four years, but Leap Year never really mattered much to me--until I realized that Leap Day is a great time to take advantage of some deals and savings.
This year there are lots of ways to have a little more fun with your family during this "extra" day. From vacation deals to theme parks staying open for 24 hours to a free cookie (yum!), there are some fun opportunities to enjoy on February 29th, 2012.
1. "One More Disney Day" at Disney Parks: The Magic Kingdom and Disneyland are going to stay open for 24 hours straight so that you and your family can have a full day of rides and enjoyment.

3. Highlights magazine for kids offering discounts: This Leap Day only, you can subscribe to the magazines either for kids ages 2-6 or 6-12 and give the gift of "fun with a purpose". You can even save on the specially-designed frog habitat.
4. Free Cookie Day at Subway restaurants: One of my favorite healthy fast food places is offering up a treat with purchase if you come in next Wednesday. Promoting the event through Facebook, go into a participating location for a cookie.
5. Red Roof Inn will donate $1 for every room booked: To show their support for American Heart Health Month, the motel chain will donate $1 for every room that is booked during February 29th.
6. Lots of family and Sin City deals through Vegas.com: If you're near Nevada, head to Las Vegas with your sweetie for some great hotel deals or take the kids along for lots of fun, including discounts at CSI: The Experience.
7. Fly anywhere and save with Frontier Airlines: With lots of cities to choose from and many deals on domestic fares, all you have to do is make sure you purchase your tickets by 11:59p.m. EST on February 29th, 2012.

Caskets for Halloween
Just something fun to celebrate samhain
As usual I find my mojo just in time to miss the holiday itself .
I didn't finish these in time to sell them for halloween
but I get to enjoy them this year so It's not a total wash
I love how this side turned out on this one.
you see even ghosts are afraid of spiders!
this one is all blacks and greys somber elegance with feathers.
I can't be serious about everything, what would be the fun in life otherwise??
this one is a little plain but I thought,
with the bright orange sequins,
anything more would have tarted it up a bit too much.
and they all have this wonderfully lush red satin linings. it contrasts so well with the stark black of the interior you can almost hear the hinges creak!
this one is my favorite though.
the bright center orange rose hides a stark white skull in its center surrounded by more roses and pumpkins fresh from the patch.
a candy corn flower, a key to the afterlife and a brilliant green spider finish it off.
what could be more Halloweenie?

With more than 1,700 exhibitors from 30 countries Agra 2017 is one of the biggest fairs for food and agriculture in Central Europe. Macedonia presented the potentials of the organic agriculture sector with six companies displaying their products, varying from organic cheese to processed organic products, and holding B2B meetings with potential export partners.
Macedonian agriculture products are already well recognized and demanded on the Slovenian market which also reflects on the demand for Macedonian organic products. Several companies have made initial contacts for export and distribution of their products on the Slovenian market, as well as some other untraditional markets.
Recognizing the potential of Macedonian agriculture, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy, has been invited to partner Slovenia in the organization of Agra Fair 2018.
"Macedonia is honored to be a partner-country to Slovenia for next year's edition of the fair, with more companies from Macedonia being presented next year", said Ljupcho Nikolovski, Minister for Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy.

Here's all you need to know to make winning picks!
🏆 Arsenal vs Standard Liege
A 3-0 win in Frankfurt represented the perfect start for Arsenal in this season's UEFA Europa League (UEL) campaign. Overall it is now six UEL wins in seven for the Gunners, with five of those six victories coming by a margin of multiple goals. The Gunners drew 1-1 with Manchester United earlier in the week but this fixture starts a run of games they will be expected to win. Bukayo Saka might get another start for the Gunners after his goal and assist against Frankfurt.
FUTAA BET >> bet on over 2.5 goals priced at 1.45
🏆 Wolfsberger AC vs Roma
Europa League (EL) group stage debutants Wolfsberger AC sparkled on matchday one with a 4-0 away win. Ahead of their first competitive match against an Italian club, the Austrians can boast an unbeaten eight-match competitive run (W7, D1). This sequence saw them score multiple goals in seven fixtures while managing six clean sheets. This is a significant step up in quality though and Roma should have enough to win this tie, though it won't be easy. Wolfsberger has scored 14 goals in their last four matches, and we expect both sides to get on the score sheet here.
FUTAA BET >> bet on BTTS: yes priced at 1.50
🏆 AZ Alkmaar vs Manchester United
AZ Alkmaar host Manchester United having won two of their previous seven European home fixtures against English clubs (W2, D4, L1). They boast solid recent home form too, losing none of their previous nine competitive matches (W6, D3). Impressively, they kept a clean sheet in six of those nine fixtures. United's poor away form has seen them win none of their last nine on the road under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and their struggles in front of goal continue. They've only scored 15 goals in their last 17 matches across all comps, although both sides have scored in each of United's last two matches.
FUTAA BET >> bet on BTTS: yes priced at 1.71

You might see a little more of the color red today in the form of red ribbons, red bracelets and maybe a red shirt or two. Why? The color denotes AIDS awareness, and in specific, today marks World AIDS Day.
But what's the meaning underneath the fashion trend of slipping a red bracelet on your wrist or sporting a ribbon on the chest of your shirt? And why are you really wearing the looped, safety-pinned ribbon that your colleague gave out this morning?
The truth of the matter is that the color red is so much more than a simple fashion statement. According to Avert.org, an international charity whose mission is to, fittingly, avert the spread of HIV and AIDS, red is the color symbolic of the 33.3 million people around the world who are currently living with HIV and AIDS, the 25 million people who have died from AIDS and the 1.8 million people who passed away from the disease just last year.
AIDS and HIV have hit the D.C. area particularly hard. To bring more awareness, Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) will get tested Wednesday and will speak at a free, daylong international conference titled "The Attitude That Spreads HIV" at Howard University's Cramton Auditorium. The conference will feature workshop panels on topics relating to HIV and faith, HIV and youth, and the criminalization of HIV.
We Love DC has a helpful list of places around D.C. that are offering free HIV tests throughout the day.
Meanwhile, activists concerned about the growing numbers of people living with AIDS on the AIDS Housing waiting list as well as the low income housing waiting list are expected to gather at 11:30 a.m. at Freedom Plaza (corner of 14th and Pennsylvania Ave., NW).
HIV is the acronym that stands for human immunodeficiency virus, which can lead to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or AIDS. The two types of HIV are HIV-1 and HIV-2, both of which destroy the body's CD4+ T cells, the blood cells that fight off diseases. (The strain prevalent in the U.S. is that of HIV-1, and so medical experts simply refer to this strain as HIV, alone.) Those with HIV may experience symptoms akin to the flu; however, others may not develop any symptoms at all.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the most common modes of HIV transmission include having unprotected sex, sharing equipment used for illicit drugs and being born to a mother infected with the virus. Other ways in which the virus spreads include lesser known methods such as: receiving infected blood transfusions and organ donations, contracting the virus through unsafe medical or dental practices (such as unsanitary injections), being bitten by a person with HIV and eating food that's been pre-chewed by an infected person.
With the help of technology and medications, people in today's times can live much longer with HIV (sometimes, even decades longer). As detailed by aids.org, a person is diagnosed with the AIDS virus when the body contains less than 200 CD4 cells (lymphocyte or white blood cells) or if the CD4 percentage is less than 14 percent.
Effects of AIDS include lesions on the mouth, weight loss, blurred vision, diarrhea, fevers and so on. Additionally, complications of other diseases are a possibility, as Kristin Stephan, MD, explains on LIVESTRONG.com. Immune system infections can include histoplasmosis, mycobacteria and toxoplasmosis. Extreme weight loss is also an effect of the disease, as well as respiratory infections like pneumonia.
In sum, the CDC estimates more than 1 million people in the United States are living with AIDS. What's even more unsettling is that, among these 1 million people, one-fifth are unaware that they're infected with HIV.
What are some of the demographics of these statistics? Both homosexuals and bisexuals account for over half of new HIV infections. Since the 1990s, men engaging in sexual relations with other men are the only risk group in the U.S. of which rates of HIV have been increasing. And, in terms of race and ethnicities, African Americans face a stark statistic, too: blacks account for nearly half the amount of people who have HIV in the U.S. That is, one in every 16 black men and one in 30 black women will be diagnosed with HIV.
Despite the development of technology and the advancements in medicine, there's still no cure for HIV or AIDS. By the close of this year, more than 18,000 people will lose their lives to AIDS in the U.S. alone. So when you pin on your ribbon today, take a quiet moment or two from your workday to recognize the color red. It's the color that is honoring lives lost, and it's the color connecting billions of people around the world -- people who, one day, hope to prevent the spread of the disease.

Camden has found that the drawers in the kitchen are filled with a wondrous array of goodies – cloth napkins, tupperware, spoons, you name it… Oh, and then there is the drawer with a loaf of Dave's Killer Bread!
I took the picture of Camden exploring the kitchen drawers and spotted the cameo appearance of the DKB loaf after I uploaded the pictures. I sent it off to my contact at DKB and it went viral, well viral-ish, on DKB's facebook page. That Camden is one cutie-patootie!

I just love these bamboo placemats! I found mine at the Dollar Tree. They just are so handy!!
I've made a picture frame mat from them, you can see that HERE. But I want to show you how I fixed an old mini planter and made it new and modern!! I'm so in love with this little guy!
So this is what I'm working with….
This little planter was actually part of a wooden box that had 4 faux succulents in it. I tore it apart awhile ago, thinking I could do something with it. Today is the day! I took apart the bamboo place mat and separated the larger flat sticks. Then I cut them to length and glued them to the sides. I started with my glue gun, but that didn't work too well.
I switched to Tacky Glue, probably any sort of glue would work.
Of course, I "thought" I took more pictures, but that must have been "some other post", because I couldn't find any of the "in process stage"… Ugh!
I think you get the jest of it…
It looks cute just like that!! But, Oh!, do I have some plans for this guy!!
Btw… This is going on the shelves in the Ladies Bathroom Project.
Okay, next this little sweet thing needed some paint! I just painted on some white acrylic paint I had on hand. Ahhhh!!! Isn't this adorable??? I'm still not done…
I added some awesome Liquid gold! Plaid:Craft Liquid Leaf Paint
This stuff is AMAZING!!! It does not disappoint! So, all I did was brush on the magic. It dries so fast and looks fantastic!
So, that is how you make a….

Okay jar... large wick pool
I am rating this jar a 4 out of 5 because although the scent throw is great, the wick that was recommended for my wax (GB464, with an ECO 4 wick), creates a deep wick pool a little larger than the recommended 1/2 inch. When I look on the wick guide, it tells me that this is the wick for this container and wax, however it does not seem to look right. I would like to try a smaller wick, but there isn't another wick recommended for smaller than 2.0in diameter with the GB464. Please help!

Play Mahjong Faces in full screen
Mahjong Faces Game Description
Mahjong Faces is a unique game of its kind. The unique feature of this game is quite a nonstandard gameplay. Instead of tiles with Chinese hieroglyphs that are usually painted on Mahjong tiles you will have see various faces. The background hides an image and the more tiles you remove the more parts of that image you'll be able to see. Thanks to quite tight timeframe it will be really challenging and fascinating to play this game online. You should definitely give this game a try. We are sure you will like it and play again and again.

Scaffolder Injured in Fall at Sainsbury's Building Site
A scaffolder fell through a fragile surface breaking his ribs, bruising a lung and fracturing his spine and pelvis in the process.
The accident happened on 8th August 2013 at a Sainsbury's branch in London which was being extended.
31 year-old James Whelan from Wimbledon fell through plasterboard which he had presumed was the same material as the timber walkway he was using to get from the roof space of the old store to the area of the new extension.
The Health and Safety Executive established that Bowmer and Kirkland Ltd should have done more to prevent their Scaffolding Subcontractor falling seven metres at the supermarket in Wandsworth. Mr Whelan sustained serious injuries falling through the plasterboard and suspended ceiling, landing on a stairway underneath the roof space.
The Derbyshire building company, which operates across the UK, did restrict access to the walkway. However they should have done more to prevent the Building Site Accident by either putting hard covers on fragile areas or ensuring the walkway was properly guarded.
Bowmer and Kirkland Ltd pleaded guilty to breaching the Work at Height Regulations 2005. They were fined £6,000 and had to pay £1,428 in costs.
After the hearing Health and Safety Executive Inspector Gavin Pugh said, "The hazards presented by fragile surfaces and open edges are clear, and it is common knowledge that falls from height account for almost half of all deaths and serious injuries on building sites. As such, companies like Bowmer & Kirkland should be fully aware of what needs to be done to adequately protect workers.
"The safety standards surrounding the walkway and fragile area fell some way short on this occasion, and it could have cost the scaffolder his life. He suffered painful injuries that still cause him pain and discomfort, but he could just as easily have been killed."
Slater and Gordon Lawyers have one of the largest teams of Personal Injury Lawyers in the UK. If you have been injured in an accident at work call us for a free consultation on freephone 0800 916 9046 or contact us online.
