Car Gear stick types explained
A gear stick is the device is used to change gear; in a manual transmission vehicle this will normally be done whilst depressing the clutch pedal with the left foot to disengage the engine from the drivetrain and wheels. Automatic transmission vehicles, robotised manuals, and those with continuously variable transmission gearboxes, do not require a clutch pedal.
Alternative positions
Gear sticks are most commonly found between the front seats of the vehicle, either on the center console (sometimes even quite far up on the dashboard), the transmission tunnel, or directly on the floor. Some vehicles have a column shift where the lever is mounted on the steering column—this arrangement was once almost standard practice in the United States until relatively recently, which had the added benefit of allowing for a full width bench-type front seat (though some models with bucket seating as an option include it). It has since fallen out of favor, although it can still be found widely on US-market pick-up trucks, vans, emergency vehicles (both law enforcement and EMS - the column shifter is retained where a floor shifter is unfeasible due to mounting the mobile data terminal and 2-way radio), and "full-size" US sedans such as the Ford Crown Victoria. A dashboard mounted shift was common on certain French models such as the Citroen 2CV and Renault 4. Both the Bentley Mark VI and the Riley Pathfinder had their gear lever to the right of the right-hand drive driver's seat, alongside the driver's door, where it was not unknown for British cars to also have their handbrake. (Left-hand drive models received a column shift.)
In some modern sports cars, the gear lever has been replaced entirely by "paddles", which are a pair of levers, usually operating electrical switches (rather than a mechanical connection to the gearbox), mounted on either side of the steering column, where one increments the gears up, and the other down. Formula 1 cars used to hide the gear stick behind the steering wheel within the nose bodywork before the modern practice of mounting the "paddles" on the (removable) steering wheel itself.
The gear knob and switches
A knob, variously called gear knob, shift knob, gear shift knob, or stick shift knob forms the handle for the gear stick. Typically the gear knob includes a diagram of the shift pattern of the gear selection system; i.e. the positions to which the gear stick should be moved when selecting a gear. In some older manual transmission vehicles it may incorporate a switch to engage an overdrive; in some automatic transmission vehicles it may incorporate a switch to engage a special mode such as a sports mode. Both of the above-mentioned switches may also be found on the console or on steering column stalks instead. Manual shifters on the steering column, if having only three forward speeds, are typically called a "three on the tree." The lowest of these gears, if set at a much lower ratio than standard 1st-gear ratio, is often called a "granny gear."
Many automatic transmission vehicles have extra controls on the gear stick, or very close by, which modify the choices made by the transmission system depending on engine and road speed; for example, "sports" or "economy" modes which will broadly speaking allow, respectively, for higher and lower revolutions per gear, before changing up.
Some specialist vehicles have controls for other functions on the gear stick. The Land Rover Freelander introduced a button for that company's Hill Descent Control system feature, which uses the brakes to simulate the function of a low-ratio gearbox in steep descents.
Secondary gear levers
In some traditional four-wheel drive "off-road" vehicles there can be a second gear lever which engages a low-ratio gearbox, used on tough terrain. Further, similar-looking levers may switch between two- and four-wheel drive, or engage differential locks; these are not "gear levers," however.
Shift pattern
The shift pattern refers to the layout of the gears. In a typical manual transmission car, first gear is located to the left, and forwards. In many trucks and some sports cars it is instead in a "dog leg" position, to the left and rearwards. There is usually a spring-loading to return the stick to the central position. Reverse gear is commonly positioned in the best choice of location to avoid accidental engagement.
Manual Transmission
A typical manual transmission vehicle, with (for example) five forward gears, will thus have seven possible positions: the five forwards gears, reverse gear, and a central "neutral" position. Some vehicles have a special button to prevent accidental engagement of reverse. Others require that the lever be lifted, pressed down, or moved with extra force to engage reverse. In transmissions with reverse directly below fifth, there may be a mechanical lock-out preventing selection of reverse other than from neutral, thus preventing a driver used to a six-speed transmission from engaging reverse while trying to select sixth.
Automatic transmission
Automatic transmissions traditionally have had a straight pattern beginning at the most forward position with "park" (which locks up the transmission), and running through reverse, neutral, drive (all gears available), and then the lower gears (often three or two more positions, each locking out a successive upper gear), with the rear-most position allowing first gear only. More modern automatic transmissions have employed a "J-gate" (pioneered by Jaguar) where some gears are on the left-hand "arm", some on the right, and there is a sideways movement at the rear of the pattern.
Some modern gearboxes such as the Alfa Romeo Sportronic have a traditional automatic shift pattern to the right, with a special position to the left in which movement of the stick forwards and backwards increments the gears up and down respectively. This can be useful in snow or dirt conditions, where it may be necessary to start from second gear.
Special knobs
A shift knob also known as a gear knob, gear shift knob and stick shift knob is the physical interface between the manual transmission stick shift and the drivers hand. Made of many materials from simple plastics through to platinum it comes in many shapes sizes and weights. Generally spherical in shape the OEM versions tend towards the conservative and the automotive aftermarket versions can be found to be of very original design.
The shift knob's principal function is the ergonomical interface between driver and the manual transmission stick shift. The stick shift, as the name implies, is often just a machined or cast aluminium or steel rod with or without threading the shift knob is fitted on its end.
In recent years manufacturers have increased the variety of shifts knobs available to the consumer from inexpensive plastics to diamond studded white gold.
Weighted shift knobs
A weighted shift knob is a performance driven aftermarket modification which entirely replaces the OEM shift knob and sits atop the aftermarket short shifter or OEM manual shift stick. Initially designed to be used in tandem with a short shifter, it is increasingly being purchased for stock stick shifts. The weight generally varies between 400 and 600 grams or more, depending on the material used. The principle of the weighted shift knob is to make the stick shifter top heavy, thus increasing the available leverage in order to decrease time between shifts. Weighted gear knobs are offered for sale by a variety of North American based manufacturers in many shapes and finishes, though they are significantly more expensive than the commonly available aftermarket shift knob.

South Australia's Slingsby Theatre Company presents emotionally challenging and engaging storytelling in rich live theatrical realms. Slingsby's original productions are crafted to challenge and inspire adult and older family audiences.
Slingsby will bring its award-winning production of Emil and The Detectives to India in January 2019, along with a series of workshops. In Slingsby's signature intimate theatrical style, Emil and The Detectives is told by two skilled actors immersed in smoke and mirrors, miniature worlds and a cinematic score.
Erich Kästner's 1929 novella is more than a 'good romp'; it broke ground for the independent-children-versus-devious-adults story genre. Streetwise city kids, a hard-working single mother and Emil's past brush with the law add grit and nuance to this satisfying tale.
Dark and light, intrigue and delight for audiences aged eight and upwards.
"I invite you to experience the diversity and dynamism of Australian culture. Come, see and engage with Australia, in your city and through our online platforms, and see what we have to offer. " - Australia's High Commissioner to India, HE Ms Harinder Sidhu

Scroll down for the list of what we'll have this week
Did someone say something about cooling off? Seems like that was a little premature…
The good news is that we've reached the time of year when the peppers are as hot as the weather. We've had jalapenos for a few weeks now, and habaneros for a couple, and this week we add to the mix fish peppers and New Mexico Green Chiles. I'm tickled to be adding these two peppers in the same week. Though they carry no obvious connection to each other, they're both deeply rooted in their home communities, and both have made interesting journeys to get to us.
The fish pepper journey is at least a century old, and begins, probably, in the Caribbean. The peppers made their way to the mid-Atlantic in the late 1800s, and were embraced by African-American farmers and fish houses (hence the name), particularly in Baltimore and Philadelphia. They gained almost no currency outside the African-American population, though, and fell out of favor by the middle of the 20th century. Fish peppers might have been lost forever, but about over 20 years ago, seeds from peppers originally saved by folk artist Horace Pippin were donated to the Seed Saver Exchange — and the peppers are now seeing a comeback. Fish peppers are approximately (though not consistently) jalapeno-spicy, with a gentle smoky sweetness. Recipes for fish peppers tend to call for the white ones — which seem to be quite rare — but the green and red ones (which are gorgeous) will do just as well. There really aren't many fish pepper recipes out there, but Woodberry Kitchen in Baltimore has an herbed black bean dip with fish peppers on their menu, and while I've never had it, I'm tempted to try my own rendition of something similar. Otherwise, they seem to be most at home in seafood dishes and hot sauces.
On the other hand, recipes abound for New Mexico Green Chiles, or Hatch Chiles. Ours, obviously, are not from New Mexico — but the farmer who grew them spend seven years farming in New Mexico, so I'm inclined to think she knows what she's doing. These chiles are a major point of state pride for New Mexico, and there's actually a certification farmers can get to prove that theirs were, in fact, grown in the state. Again, ours were grown in this state — and that's a point of pride for us! Dusty has also spent some time in New Mexico, and is particularly excited about roasting vast quantities of chiles for making in to "Hatch" — a ubiquitous green chile sauce. The recipes I've found for it are all very similar, but here's one that seems like it's probably particularly authentic. New Mexicans put it on and use it in a vast variety of foods, from enchiladas to cornbread to cranberry sauce to margaritas to…you get the picture. I'm not really counting on making any chile cranberry sauce (though the more I think about it the better it sounds), but I am looking forward to making use of whatever Dusty roasts.
Even though it doesn't feel much like fall out there this week, the produce table is starting to feel more and more fall-like, and word is that peaches are winding down. I don't know if we'll have them again after this week, so if you've been waiting for the appearance of New Mexico Green Chiles to make Peach & Hatch Salsa, this is the week to do it.

When our dogs are learning new things we have to remember there isn't just the mental component of learning the exercise and command but also the physical component to consider.
A dog must be fit, flexible and strong enough to perform what we are asking. Sometimes we have to break our end goal down into smaller goals and build it up slowly.
Dogs will naturally have a weaker side and a stronger side which can affect how they do exercises. They often drift away from the weaker hindleg so if you find your dog's hindquarters are veering to the left when walking in a straight line or asked to step backwards this could be due to weakness in the right hind.
I always reiterate how beneficial and important it is for dogs to be able to do exercises in both directions. If you have taught you dog to give paw, make sure they can do it with both paws and if they always spin to the right teach them to spin to the left. If they have difficulties it could be worth getting them checked by a physio to make sure there are no physical issues such as muscle tension that is inhibiting their movement.
As always it is great to teach your dog new things and have fun. Don't get too hard on yourself or your dog if it doesn't go right to start with but treat it as part of the learning process and analyse why it went wrong.
One thing people seem surprised about is that I can visit you and your dog at home to give treatments. My service is fully mobile and covers Derbyshire, South Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire.
I often find dogs and horses are more relaxed in their own environment and therefore respond much better to treatment sessions. They also don't have to get back in a car or horsebox and travel home afterwards meaning they can stay where they are and continue to snooze!
Travelling to see me can sometimes be impractical if you don't have transport or if your pet's condition makes it difficult for them to travel in the car.
I also offer evening and weekend appointments to fit around you.
At this time of year I see a lot of injuries associated with slipping on icy or muddy ground or strains from getting stuck in the mud. Arthritic pets can become stiffer due to less exercise and the cold, damp weather and would like a bit of extra TLC.
We also need to look forward to Spring as the nights are becoming lighter and we are able to go that bit further after work. Why not get your pet booked in for an MOT before they start showing signs of lameness, stiffness or unwillingness to exercise.
Well October and November have been particularly busy for me and because of this I am fashionably late with my blog this month. Oops! Keep an eye on the website and Facebook for upcoming news and events.
Starting in January I am very excited to announce we will be running Pawlates classes alongside dog trainer Tori Cartwright. These classes are a step up from general obedience and are aimed at anyone wishing to improve balance, flexibility, fitness and strength in their dogs whilst learning new exercises. The course is aimed at competition and family dogs and we will explain how each exercise affects the dog's musculoskeletal system. Pop along to our Facebook page, email or ring for more info.
It was the annual NAVP conference in October and a great day for learning and catching up with colleagues.
Dr Nicole Rombach gave some great lectures on The Equine Spine: Pathology and Dysfunction and Neuromuscular Functioning and Core Strength for Sports Horse Performance.
Caroline Gerdes MRCVS also gave an interesting talk on Poor Performance Investigation in Horses.
An interesting point that was brought up during these lectures was how do radiographic and diagnostic findings relate to clinical signs? It is interesting to see that some horses that have mild clinical signs can have advanced degenerative changes on imaging whereas other horses may show mild degenerative changes on imaging but can be severely lame. This is why each patient should be treated as an individual and their treatment plan whether that be medical, surgical or rehabilitation be tailored accordingly.
November saw me at the British Dressage National Convention. The theme this year was the Best of British and we had chance to see the paradressage riders train and have demonstrations off Laura Tomlinson, Charlotte Dujardin and Carl Hester to name a few.
The parariders horses are fantastic and it was great to see how they adapt to a rider that may not be able to give the same aids as an able bodied person. I definitiely learned a lot and have a great deal of respect for these riders.
It was good to watch the professionals warm up and go through their training process and encounter the same problems as everyone else. Laura Tomlinson explained that she always warms up in canter as it is more natural for the horses as in the wild they only use trot to get to and from canter. What are your thoughts on this?
This is a question I get asked so many times! And the answer is yes but I'm also so much more!
So what is the differenced between a physio, chiropractor, osteopath and sports massage therapist?
We look at muscular development, muscular tension, conformation, movement and posture. Using this we then devise a treatment plan that may include manual therapy such as massage, stretching, electrotherapies and targeted exercises. These address the muscles, ligaments and tendons, circulatory and nervous systems. Physiotherapy can help relieve pain, improve mobility aid with weight loss and help with fitness.
These professionals use manual therapy to target biomechanical dysfunction of the spine. Chiropractors perform adjustments which are short thrusts to realign the spine and this then has affects on the nervous system in general.
Osteopaths believe the body has the ability to heal itself. They use gentle manual techniques to release muscular tension, regulate nerve supply, circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Sports massage therapist:
These therapists apply targeted sports massage to treat musculoskeletal problems but also aids circulation, flexibility and muscle health.
All these treatments are complementary and overlap to a certain extent and but are never a replacement for veterinary care. However, they are beneficial in the management of long term conditions, rehabilitation and fitness conditioning plus they are non invasive and drug free!
So the answer is yes, a lot of the time I treat problems with the back but in order to treat an animal fully you need to look at the bigger picture. For example a lot of hindlimb lamenesses in horses also manifest as soreness in the back. This is because animals compensate for weakness and injury by changing their movement and shifting their weight onto unaffected limbs.
I can also help you bring your horse or dog safely back into work after an injury or help you work towards a fitness goal. Help aid healing of fractures, reduce inflammation, improve core strength and rehabilitate neurological conditions.
I'm a little late with the blog post this month as I've had a busy few weeks.
My most recent adventure was having a stand at a local charity show offering free advice and physio assessments.
I was lucky to meet some lovely dogs and their owners. Many of these dogs were rescues and it is heartwarming to hear the owners talk about the progress these dogs have made since finding their forever homes.
For many rescue dogs their history is unknown and they often come with psychological and behavioural issues. They may also have prior injuries that you are unaware of and be compensating for areas of weakness or tension.
Physiotherapy can be a great tool for owners of rescue dogs. Having a physio MOT can give you a better understanding of how your dog moves, any areas of weakness or tension and give you support and advice on how to manage long term conditions such as arthritis and hip dysplasia.
Massage can help to promote relaxation, relieve stress and tension, reduce pain and help dog and owner develop a bond. For dogs that find the kennel or home environment stressful or are struggling to adapt to their change in circumstances regular massage sessions can be extremely beneficial.
Therapeutic exercise has mental and physical benefits. By teaching your dog some of these simple exercises you can improve confidence and responsiveness, strengthen muscles and help to tire your dog mentally.
If you want to know more about physiotherapy and how it can help you and your pet get in touch to book an appointment or for me to answer your questions.

text: They can thank his policies.Via The Hill: The election is coming, the election is coming! That's the message coming from President Obama as he tries desperately to rouse Democrats out of a midterm election stupor that could cost his party control of the Senate — and bury his agenda once and for all. Obama has increasingly sounded like the nerdy kid in a bad horror movie constantly warning his friends to stay out of danger as he's called on the Democratic base to not be complacent in 2014. "You've got to pay attention to the states," he begged at a recent fundraiser for the Democratic Governors Association. Obama lamented that Democrats don't think state-level races in the 2014 midterms are "sexy enough." Raising cash for Senate Democrats in Virginia, Obama said Democrats tend to get "a little sleepy" and "distracted." "We're good at Senate and House elections during presidential years — it's something about midterms," Obama said. "I don't know what it is about us." And at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser in Boston, Obama said poor turnout could lead the party's candidates to get "walloped." "It's happened before and it could happen again," said Obama, who remembers all too well the shellacking his party took in 2010, when it lost control of the House.http://weaselzippers.us/178801-obama-to-...term-elections/

As the workplace environment evolves and society moves to more flexible, decentralised ways of working, brands are increasingly seeking to tease out skills from potential employees that cannot be expressed on an old school CV.
Businesses are also waking up to the fact that a diverse workforce creates the best products and services, a reason why focus is increasingly being put on making recruitment more democratic in order to attract people from a variety of socio-economic backgrounds.
Companies like Unilever and Goldman Sachs are tapping into the power of AI to match graduates to roles within their businesses. Applicants are asked to film their answers to questions that pop up on their computer screen. The videos are then scanned by algorithms, which analyse the words used, how confidently the sentiment is expressed and how concisely the argument is presented.
Unilever also uses tech to match applicants to the right job. So, rather than applying for a particular role, graduates are matched by the AI system to the best role for them.
Meanwhile, First Direct has taken the experience offline by hosting speed dating 'cocktails and careers' evenings at a bar in Leeds (where its head office is based) to help the recruitment team discover more about candidates' personalities.
Over a welcome cocktail the First Direct team explain more about the company and the various roles on offer, before embarking on a speed dating session, which gives candidates the chance to chat to the managers. Afterwards the team invites the potential recruits to get involved in a cocktail making demonstration. It's a strategy that has seen First Direct make several hires.
It's important to mix things up and challenge yourself to be better. It's only by doing this, that businesses can attract the best talent.

For its graduate recruitment, O2 has also moved away from traditional assessment days to focus on testing problem solving and creative thinking via 'escape room' type activities.
The brand is also working with graduate recruitment app Debut to offer a mobile-first approach that allows candidates to apply through their smartphone. O2 claims that not using CVs during the selection process helps to remove red tape and give candidates the best opportunity to demonstrate their "enthusiasm and passion".

Next-generation thinking
Part of encouraging workplace diversity is broadening the socio-economic diversity of the young people entering the business. This is the philosophy at BT, which since 2014 has been running the Work Ready programme, aimed at helping 16- to 24-year-olds who are no longer in education, employment or being trained for work get into the workplace.
To date, 3,500 young people have taken part in the scheme, which is designed to give them the confidence, curiosity and technical skills needed for the jobs of the future.
The programme consists of a three-week work placement combining skills development, employability training and hands-on work experience. Young people are given help tidying up their CVs, advice on interview techniques and developing their presentation skills, as well as spending time with BT employees during the intensive work experience.
At the end of the three weeks the young people go through a series of mock interviews and assessments to test what they have learnt.
Graduates of the Work Ready programme have joined all elements of the BT business, including marketing. Amy Caton, BT's Work Ready programme lead, explains that curiosity and problem solving skills would be a good match for a move into the marketing team.
"Showing curiosity, the ability to problem solve and a desire to succeed are certainly a start. Increasingly the profession is becoming a mix of the numerical and the literal, so a solid understanding of both are certainly helpful," she explains.
"Much of what we try to teach in the programme is about learning those transferable skills, which give people the foundation to try their hand at whatever matches their passions. A one-size-fits-all approach to recruitment does not allow for diversity, so it's up to brands to continue to think about the way they recruit talent."
Branding the experience
Ensuring that every touchpoint of the recruitment process reflects the brand DNA has been a real area of focus for Virgin Media. This is important as every year more than 120,000 people apply for a job at the company, when it typically only needs to hire for 3,500-4,000 roles.
"We're in the rejection business to a large degree and so it's very important to me that the candidate experience is a positive one, because many of those potential candidates are going to be disappointed, but they are our customers…

Another Filipina who works as a nurse in Australia made the Philippine proud and be all smiles. This is a complete testament on how Pinoys value their work and on how the word "HOSPITABLE" means to us.
She is Mica Alcedo, a Pinay nurse who went to Australia from the Philippines in 2004. She was awarded a medal on August 19, 2011 under the "Fair Go" category in Darwin, Australia.
From being a school nurse, she worked herself up and now enjoys being child and maternal health nurse in Tennant Creek.
DFA was qouted saying "Ms. Alcedo commits herself to helping disadvantaged youth and has developed the Filipino community's 'Ladies of Alice Springs' group."
That is what we call, "a paid off dedication and hard work."

01 Oct Client Praise
I have been working with Christine for two weeks and already I notice a difference! I have increased ROM and stamina and am walking better than i have in years! Christine is not only extremely knowledgeable about working with clients with medical conditions, but she is encouraging and supportive in the process. I look forward to each of my workouts! ~ Harriet K.
I have been working out with Christine for about a month and love the way she approaches fitness. She works with me at my level, so I feel confident. I've never dreaded going to a session. My significant other had been gone for a couple weeks and he came back and said "you look fit". Yay! She's great! ~ Debra K.
Your Best Fit spent several months with my husband, building his strength so he could walk the 37 steps down the aisle for his granddaughter's wedding. ~ Peggy E. (her husband had Parkinson's)
"It was a blessing for me to have somebody who understood my physical problems. She [the trainer] doesn't push you to go beyond your capabilities. She understands what you can do on a certain day. I think it's very beneficial and everyone should do it." ~ Kera T.
The 'Your Best Fit' program is one of the best things that ever happened to me. Thanks to the patience, kindness and compassion of the staff, I learned that there is more to life than eating Yankee Doodles!! As a result of the nutritional education combined with an exercise program, I feel more balanced than I ever have in my whole life. ~ Toby S.
"Great, experienced instructor. We're very happy." ~ Mark & Bonnie H.
"Christine is a wonderful trainer. She is great for all levels and inspires you to do your best. Her knowledge is extensive. Recommend highly" ~ Sue L.
Christine, I cannot thank you enough for what you have done for me. My strength has improved and my balance has gotten better, and you have shown me the path to continue with my workouts. Your patience with me and the encouragement you have provided every day has been a challenge. Thank you again and thank you for helping me regain some confidence in my abilities! ~ Bill B
Dear Christine, They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them; but then an entire lifetime to forget them. We will never forget your gift of friendship, encouragement and hope in our lives. Your healing has touched both our bodies and spirit. You have given us strength to sustain us day by day. You have definitely brought joy to Bill as he looked forward to his time with you. You will be missed more than you could possibly know. I hope and pray that our paths will cross again but in the meantime we wish you happiness and all the best in your endeavors. Please keep in touch! ~ Merrell B.
Dear Christine, I would like to thank you on behalf of the members of the Gulf Stream Bath and Tennis Club for the outstanding Fitness programs that you held at the Club. Not only did I receive raving reviews from the participants but also from the House Committee and the Board of Governors. Personally, I commend you on your organization, promptness and enthusiasm. It was exciting to see members both male and female of all ages participate and benefit from the program. Comments made to me were all positive and everyone was looking forward to future classes. I believe that this is not only due to the course content but also to your dynamic personality and positive attitude. Thank you again Christine for your part in making this season such a great success. Sincerely, Jim Calhoun General Manager Gulf Stream Bath and Tennis Club
Dear Christine, Thank you for the very successful "Strength Training For Women" program you ran at The Dunes Club. It filled a need for women of all ages who had given up on aerobic-type exercise classes. I have received numerous favorable comments from participants concerning the program and you as instructor. Your enthusiasm, sincere belief in the benefits of exercise and ability to maintain interest and instill confidence was most often quoted. The real success of the program was also indicated by the need to add more sessions to satisfy the demand of the membership. Again, I thank you and congratulate you on a most successful program, the first of its kind tried here at The Dunes Club. Sincerely. Donald A Dragon, CCM General Manager The Dunes Club
To whom it may concern: I am writing to recommend Christine King on three levels: Personally, as a businesswoman, and as a personal trainer. At all three levels, Christine brings professionalism, integrity and commitment to her craft. As a person, Christine has inspired many with her own personal journey. Having said that, she does so without waving the flag of look at what I have done. She simply sets an example of the power of the human spirit and will. As a business woman, Christine keeps people informed, follows through on her commitments, attracts great staff (and quickly acts when that is not the case), and involves herself actively in the community – both for business development and because she genuinely cares about the causes she champions. As a personal trainer, I have a love/hate relationship with Christine. She has pushed me to be in the best shape of my life at 55 (me, not her!) and feel better than ever. I cam to her to rehab an injury that I feared required neck surgery. I am symptom-free, and fit by virtually every measure. I owe much of that to Christine and her gradual approach to physical improvement – and her no-nonsense style that she adopts for me. It isn't easy! She pushes me hard, and that is what I need. I see her work with people at all levels of fitness and of all ages – and she adapts her style to fit them. Whatever relationship you are considering with Christine and her company, you will be richly rewarded. Sincerely, Stephen Garber President Third Level, Ltd.

THE weekend should have been a riot of birthday celebrations for funloving Coventry girl Chantal Nursey.
But instead, family and friends shared a sad Saturday of what-might-have-beens.
Chantal would have been 26. She lost her life in one of the city's most shockingly brutal murders.
Her family are determined that she should never be forgotten and are sharing these cherished pictures to mark her birthday.
Chantal, who "had everything to live for", had her happy life viciously cut short at the age of 24.
The former Coundon Court pupil was murdered by Stephen Clinton on August 5, 2006.
The 24-year-old from Dublin viciously beat Chantal at her Coventry flat, before strangling her with his belt.
Clinton is serving a life sentence after being found guilty by a jury sitting at Birmingham Crown Court.
Chantal's sister Jackie Wells had looked after her younger sister since 1993 when their mother died and the pair had an extremely close relationship.
Jackie said: "Christmas is the hardest. The first Christmas didn't exist. We have started to get our lives back together over the last six months, with the help of support and time.
"There are constant reminders. I never want Stephen Clinton to walk the streets again."
Jackie, of Allesley Park, marked Chantal's birthday with friends and family.
She has also extended her sympathies to other families in the same position, following recent high-profile court cases.
She said: "I have been reading about other families in similar situations and how they feel.
"What Sally-Anne Bowman's mother said about the impact of her daughter's death was just how I feel.
"We have e-mailed Sally-Anne's mother on the Gone Too Soon website. Chantal's page on the site has been a comfort to us.
"As time goes on there is not always the support there. I would love to speak to other families who have gone through the same.
"Our thoughts are with other families and friends of victims - we are all victims, we are all living a life sentence at the hands of one person."
Chantal worked as a traffic co-ordinator at Baginton-based distribution firm Christian Salvesen and was living in her own apartment in Earlsdon at the time of her death.
Jackie said: "Chantal was happy and I will never be able to forgive him for what he has done, I don't understand people who say they can forgive.
"He has taken away the best years of her life and she was a happy girl with everything to live for."
She added that she and Chantal's friends and family were determined to keep her sister's memory alive.
She said: "We dream about Chantal a lot and we ring each other to share them.
"We also have Chantal nights where we have a meal and look at photos of her.
"We all think about her every day and we miss her so much. It is still a shock to us and it is still quite unbelievable."

Chinese Zodiac Story - Rabbit
Why does the Rabbit rank the fourth in Chinese Zodiac?
Once upon a time, the rabbit and the ox were neighbors and they got along with each other very well. The ox was diligent and hardworking while the rabbit was smart and capable, so they all lived a comfortable life.
One day, the rabbit good at running showed off to the ox: "I'm the long-distance running champion in the animal world and no one can defeat me!" The ox sought for advice about long-distance running modestly, but the rabbit shook its head proudly and said: "the long-distance running champion depends on the congenital quality and you cannot learn it. Besides, the long-distance running requires a slim body; but you are stout. I'm afraid you cannot run fast."
The ox was upset but it was unwilling to submit. From then on, the ox began to practice long-distance running and it finally gained the iron feet due to its perseverance. Once tailed up, it ran like the wind and never felt exhausted for a few days.
In accordance with the rules, the animals coming first would be listed for the Chinese zodiac signs on the day. The ox and the rabbit promised to each other that they would get up and go to the Heavenly Palace together after hearing the first cockcrow.
The next day, the ox got up after hearing the first cockcrow but the rabbit had already left. The rabbit ran for a long time and it found there was no animal, so it fell asleep for a while. The ox fell behind, but it never rested and arrived first at the Heavenly Palace due to its perseverance and iron feet when the rabbit was sleeping.
A burst of rapid footsteps awoke the rabbit; it opened its eyes and found the tiger running over quickly. The rabbit was anxious and it ran after the tiger. However, it still fell behind the tiger. Since the tricky rat hid under the ox horn, the rabbit only got the fourth position after the rat, the ox and the tiger.

Morton Feldman Marathon Lectures
Posted by hatta under Classical, Experimental Music, Live Music, New Music
No Comments
Yesterday was the Seattle Chamber Players Morton Feldman Marathon at the Seattle Art Museum and it was indeed an all day affair. I arrived at SAM downtown about five minutes before 10 am (after finding free parking only a few blocks away) and though the museum doesn't open till ten they were letting people in for the lecture. The lecture hall wasn't very full so I was able to take my pick of seats. Kyle Gann, Alex Ross, Elena Dubinets and some tech guys were just to my right and were working out some details for the program. They weren't going to start for fifteen minutes or so, so as usual I was early. But start they did with, after some introductions and thanks (and even an oddly bombastic trailer for an upcoming SAM exhibit) the lectures began
Feldman and the Artists
Though the title of the lecture series was Feldman and the Artists there wasn't actually too much specifically about this subject. The usual mention of the artists that were close associates (Guston, Rothko, Rauschenberg, Pollock and so on). The first lecture was by Kyle Gann and his focus was on Feldman's innovations. He listed four aspects of Feldman's work that separated him from the other composers of the day. This are: Dynamics (which is soft), Duration (which is long), Intuition (freedom from system (see also here)) and Notation (which is subversive). Gann's perspective on this was pretty interesting, he had met Feldman been at lectures and performances of his when he was not too well known beyond his association with John Cage. He was at a lecture where Rothko Chapel was performed and he said this was the first piece of Feldman's that seemed outside of the influence of Cage. A transitory work really in that it was the first step toward what we would really associate with Feldman and one he quickly stepped past.
The innovations of Feldman Gann argued have influenced almost all of the current generation to the degree that the level of Feldman's influence is almost immeasurable. The Post-Minimalists in particular, they took Feldman's narrow focus (always soft dynamics) and would focus on one thing. The issue of duration has become so tilted toward the direction of longer works that is is shorter works that are met with skepticism. Finally on notation Gann spent some real time and put up some examples from scores to illustrate this. He pointed out that even beyond the graph paper scores, within so called traditional notation, Feldman's scores were inherently subversive. He'd have say three parts in three staves but they'd be timed such or use instructions to the point that they wouldn't be synchronized. And yet he'd put in features of the score that would make the players think as if they were. For instance one part had two tied notes for one instrument and between those would be a downbeat by another instrument. However those notes from the second instrument would not ever actually occur right at that point. The point of this, Gann argued, was that Feldman was psychologically manipulating the performer to add nuance to performance. A good bit of the issues of this part of the lecture were raised in this post on Gann's blog. Some great stuff in the comments as well.
After Gann's lecture the artistic director for the Seattle Chamber Players, Elena Dubinets, took the stage. She focused on Feldman's Graph Paper scores and how he developed this technique. She has done serious research into the Zucker Archive in Zurich Switzerland which apparently is the largest archive of Feldman's papers. It includes a large amount of unpublished material as well as early versions of many of his scores. She also looked into the Tudor archives at the Getty in LA as Tudor was the original performer for so much of Feldman's material from the fifties and sixties. She had several interesting slides where she demonstrated how Feldman tried to get to the concepts used in the Graph Paper scores but on traditional staff notation. In this case the staves are misleading as the "notes" only indicate relative pitch and not specific notes which are left up to the player. So while his famous anecdote of coming up with the graph paper notations while waiting for Cage to cook up some wild rice is probably true it is clear that he more accurately found a format for existing ideas.
Elena also spent some time going over the history of the Nature Pieces. This had only been performed once by David Tudor as part of a dance piece. The score wasn't published until fairly recently and it seemed at odds with the dance piece and some stated information about. For instance the score was in 5 parts where there clearly was 7 listed. By digging around the Getty Tudor Archive Elena found Tudor's original performance score which had the seven parts and in different order as well. So this restored score was going to get its first performance in the US tonight. Overall Elena's lecture was quite interesting with lots of examples of Feldman's compositional techniques and the development of these over time. The information in the Zucker archive really needs to be published. Elena has written a book about but so far it is only in Russian and there is no plan for translation at the moment.
The final lecture was from Alex Ross and he focused more and Feldman's place in twentieth century composition. While I'm a ardent follower of his blog and quite enjoyed his book, The Rest is Noise, this lecture was the least interesting of the three. It also should have been first as it was much more of an overview then the other two. Also I tend to think that it displayed what is perhaps the main criticism I have of his book: he seems to prefer the post-romantic music of the 20th century and thus he works overly hard to fit Feldman into his subset of "outsider" composers. He made the statement that Feldman is the last, the absolute last romantic. But I think this in an inaccurate assement, based more so on his emotional responses as opposed to Feldmans. There is no grand gesture in Feldmans music, no restrictions in tonality, no emphasis on virtuosity, no wearing of emotions on his sleeve. Sure one can find romantic elements here and there, I suspect you could of even the most ardent modernist, but it is really stretching to put Feldman in this tradition. In his own way he subverted, reacted against and was actively opposed to "the canon". Gann's enunciations of how Feldman "innovated" I think stand in direct contrast to this position.
Ross began by connecting Feldman with a tradition of west coast composers from Cowll, through Partch to Cage that eventually led to the minimalists. Familiar again to anyone who has read his book, this was decent background material. This aspect of his lecture is why it really should have been first. Gann talked about minimalists and more importantly the post-minimalists and this would have been good background material. Where Gann started with Rothko Chapel, This was where Ross ended and was in fact where he spent the most time in actual Feldman discussion. Rothko Chapel and Viola in my Life, while both excellent pieces, are outliers in the the Feldman oeuvre, pieces that people who don't really like Feldman seem to take. Still Ross read some of the ever amusing and informative Feldman quotes and anecdotes and his examination of the different parts of Rothko Chapel was informative. He played several fragments of Rothko Chapel and compared them to various Schönberg pieces as a demonstration of how Feldman was not necessarily outside of the tradition. He concluded with a nice overlay of a recorded Feldman interview and the final movement of the piece.
There followed a brief Q&A but not too much was revealed in this. Overall the lectures were very informative and well worth attending. I only scratched the surface in what was gone over in these, over two hours of information is hard to summarize in a single post. Ross and Gann both spent time connecting Feldman to the other composers that were part of this festival, Gann going so far to say that Feldman was the major influence of post-minimalism. Not having attended the rest of the festival I can't really comment on this aspect. With the lectures concluded there was a forty-five minute break and then the music.

Chinese Branding | Create Chinese Business Name
Be yourself. Across languages, cultures, and mediums. Be true to your story, with nothing lost in translation
There are two sides to every story. Stories become a narrative; a narrative becomes identity; identity becomes trademark. We discovered this development as we progressed, since first establishing Chin Communications as a Chinese language translation company three decades years ago.
We discovered that the translation of words led to the understanding of concepts, objectives, strategies, and frameworks to achieve impact. We observed the detrimental outcomes of not protecting your brand through correct translations.
How you articulate your words in one language informs your story in another, and that's where we come in.
Your Chinese Name
We help you to create Chinese business name!
Connect the dots to bring meaning to your Chinese name
What's in a (Chinese) name? It's all about creating a seamless brand experience. From head to heart to hand and back again – that's how intelligent branding travels and how it's felt; a brand that isn't understood by its audience can't make that journey.
Imagine looking at a brand in a language foreign to you – would it make you feel at all?
Just as you've put time and energy into refining your brand, equal care is taken to perfecting a Chinese name. After all, it is a translation of your identity.
Define your identity, deliberately | Branding Agency
Don't underestimate the power of the market. If you don't have a Chinese name, the market will create one for you. Think about it. If it's a good name, lucky you, but technically speaking, you don't own that name, and that creates a sticky situation for everyone, especially your lawyers. And if it's a bad name, well, then that won't go down well with the Chinese, or anyone. Let your identity in the Chinese market exist deliberately, by design, and in your own hands.
Process makes perfect. This is ours:
1. We get to know your brand
Identifying your core values, how you work, where you work, your audience, your personality and positioning, your objectives, strategy, and just about everything there is to know about your business.
2. We identify scope
Discovering the extent of your business development into the Chinese space, and re-creating the scenarios in which you'll need branding and marketing strategies. That way, we understand what brand components in Chinese are required for your business.
3. We research the market and your competitors
Analysing market precedents, competitors, and opportunities to discover insights that will become the foundation of your strategy.
4. We brainstorm
Our team of linguists, designers, marketers, and cross-cultural experts join heads to formulate concepts and tangible strategies for your brand, starting with a name and its visual form. We may use transliteration or translation, transcreation or recreation to come up with a Chinese version of your brand name. Then, we visualise the Chinese characters that suit both the brand meaning and have culturally positive connotations in the Chinese language and look good together. This is the tricky part. This is also where the magic happens.
5. We develop with you
We share our findings and ideas with you in a brand report connected to your marketing strategy. We work with you to iterate the process and finalise your name in Chinese.
6. We support you further – full creative service
From your brand logo and tagline, your service or product descriptions and industry-specific terminology, to your sub-brands and style guides; we map out your brand story and marketing strategy – visually and verbally – to engage your audience across cultures.
A full Visual Identity solution is available for you so there is clarity about how to use your brand, fonts, colours, etc. Other key messages, web copy and templates can all be synchronised with your brand right through to design and printing.
7. We can help you get it registered in China
This is important and strongly recommended by IP Australia to protect your brand.
Let us help you define your identity.

Bottom part didn't fit in. This is the bottom part:
I came up with an original brawler on this link: https://brawlstars.fandom.com/f/p/3100000000000000707
I also came up with additional star powers here:https://brawlstars.fandom.com/f/p/3100000000000000706
Nope, will not get added. Brawl stars is only doing skins for Clash of Clans and Clash Royale, will not add a brawler based on this. It's literally sparky and the damage is nowhere close to what it should be. Also, I would say that if it has 3 ammo, it would probably have a reload time more than Mortis!
Chill out dawg
I'm not really yelling or anything, just stating why supercell wont add it
Maybe if they do add (Which i know they wont) for his star power, he reloads 0.5 seconds faster
What do you think?

Despite the fact that millions of Indian soldiers fought in the two World Wars, these mega wars that shaped the new world order, fail to find any real space in the Indian consciousness. Unlike in Europe or America, where these wars defined a generation, in India they are confined to school textbooks. They briefly explain the wars, their geniuses and ramifications, but thats about it.
When the wars raged, we were not an independent nation and soldiers from the subcontinent were only serving their colonial masters.
In Gajendra Singh's book, The Testimonies of Indian Soldiers and the Two World Wars, it becomes clear that there is a narrative missing from how contemporary India looks at the wars — the voice of the Indian soldier. Using the letters written home by Indian soldiers, as well as reports submitted by their British officers, Singh gives a glimpse into the world of the Indian soldier in the British Indian Army, and more interestingly, showcases how the latter thought.
In his first chapter, Singh takes on the British idea of 'martial races', which detailed characteristics that make for a perfect soldier and the communities that best reflect them.
Singh highlights the preconceived notions that the British had about different sections of the population and how certain communities were thought to be more European than others. He writes, "The Sikh was the archetype of the perfect soldier: not a religion but a race; not weakened by climate but strengthened by the cool airs of Central Asia. Pathans were how the British wished to see themselves: 'chivalric', 'hawk like' and imbued with an innate sense of 'democracy' and 'fair-play'. The Brahmin was symptomatic of the failings and virtues of all Indians: inscrutable in their fidelity and their treachery."
Later in the book, he weaves excerpts from letters of soldiers posted on different fronts, as well as reports of British officers and commissions, giving the reader a first-hand understanding of how both sides of the colonial divide perceived the war. He uses them to highlight the discrimination that existed, in terms of pay and law. Indian soldiers were paid a meagre Rs 7 a month, with which they were expected to pay for their food and clothing, resulting in a backlash and letters being sent home and requesting help to find alternative careers. Through those letters, Singh discusses how the battle hardened the Indian troops.
It is hard to get past the race divide that was clearly evident during the First World War. Singh uses letters to bring to life a little-known comical yet horrific phenomenon. How the British went into an overdrive to prevent Indian soldiers from pursuing sexual relationships with British women while recovering at British hospitals. The British authorities viewed it as a threat to white prestige — "European degeneracy and moral decay implicit in the sexual mixing of the colonisers body with that of the colonised".
Singh later delves into the dark side of war — self-mutilation and the malingering among Indian soldiers. Years of conflict had pushed many to the brink resulting in a cross-section of troops faking illness and injuries. More than half of the Indian soldiers admitted to hospitals came in with injuries to their left hand. Soldiers wrote home seeking methods to injure themselves or cause illness in order to leave the battlefield.
The book isn't an easy read, but is filled with information and personal narratives that help the reader get a unique understanding of both the British thinking and the life of an Indian soldier. It brings out a side of the World War story that hasn't really been part of the discourse in India. While facts and events are interesting, the subtle and underlining message of racial discrimination is a running thread through the book. For world war enthusiasts and history buffs the book is a must read.

The special election will take place at 7 p.m. Monday, May 21 in the Commission Chambers of the Sumner County Administration Building, 355 N. Belvedere Drive in Gallatin.
On Feb. 20, Kemp, who was first elected in 2014, made a statement on Facebook announcing that she was withdrawing her petition for re-election in the May primary.
"As a small business owner and considering what is best for our family, Terry and I have made an offer on a property outside of my district," she wrote. "Since there was no certainty on the deal at that time, I submitted my petition last week to meet the qualifying deadline. While the deal has not yet closed, after this past weekend, I now believe there is little that will prevent that from happening at some point in the future ... In remaining as transparent as I've been during my term, and forthcoming and fair as possible to all involved, I decided today to formally withdraw my name from the upcoming May 1 Republican primary ballot and give those that can make the commitment to the voters, every opportunity to succeed.
On April 4, Kemp sent a resignation to Sumner County attorney Leah Dennen.
"It is with heavy heart that I formally tender my resignation," she wrote. "As you know, my husband and I have long been in search of property and we were fortunate enough after 7 years of searching to have finally found what we have been looking for."
Kemp said she was blessed to work with "so many dedicated public servants" and felt honored to have served the community.
Anyone interested in the position should submit a resume or qualifications to the Office of the County Clerk, Sumner County Administration Building, 355 North Belvedere Drive, Room 111, Gallatin, Sumner County, Tennessee, by 11 a.m. on Monday, May 21, or attend the 7 p.m. meeting and express interest to a member of the Sumner County Legislative Body.
Loren S. Echols and Gene Rhodes were the leaders of the Republican Primary May 1. The 7th commission race will not be contested in the August general election.

Top Budget Hotels in Scottsdale
Finding a charming, one-of-a-kind budget hotel in Scottsdale can be challenging. Accommodations tend to fall into one of two categories: big, expensive resorts and chain hotels. There are options, though, for travelers hoping to experience Scottsdale on a budget—and with a little style. These more affordable options are centrally located near dining, shopping and nightlife destinations, and tend not to tack on "resort fees," which are meant to cover the costs of gratuities and expensive amenities, such as multiple pools and golf courses. Fear not: all of the hotels below have great pools, which is a year-round Scottsdale pleasure and summertime necessity. Speaking of our most-dread season of the year, rates tumble at all of the city's hotels when the temperatures climb well beyond 100 degrees, usually late-May through early September. You'll find spectacular deals at what seem like out-of-reach resorts—just check around before booking. Here are my five favorite hotels that stay affordable year round.
Hotel Indigo
The hip chain packs a lot of style into an affordable package. Guests will love its unbeatable downtown location, not to mention the boldly wallpapered rooms that were inspired by more expensive boutique hotels. Take a dip in the outdoor pool, or head out to the second-story terrace for cocktails by the fire pit on cool evenings.
The Clarendon Hotel
Located in nearby Central Phoenix, the Clarendon is a funky alternative to Scottsdale's more expensive (and beige) resorts. Most rooms open onto the property's star attraction: the Oasis, a hip courtyard pool and 50-person Jacuzzi with striped tile and lounge-y, cabana furniture. The first-floor Mexican restaurant, Gallo Blanco, and rooftop bar are popular destinations for locals.
3 Palms
This remodeled hotel—a 10-minute drive from Old Town—is a terrific value. The budget-boutique 3 Palms has a small resort feel, thanks to its white-on-white lobby, mod guest rooms and poolside bar. Located in southern Scottsdale near Tempe, it attracts parents and friends visiting students at nearby Arizona State University.
Gainey Suites Hotel
Nothing says Scottsdale vacation like a palm tree-lined pool, outdoor bar and mountain views. A recent renovation has given this hotel a resort-like upgrade, from new furniture and appliances to outdoor fire pits and cabanas. The all-suite hotel is also perfect for families in search of a full-kitchen or an extra bedroom.
Best Western Plus Sundial
You gotta hand it to this little hotel for breaking the chain mold. Architectural details reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright—such as desert-deco concrete blocks and geometric overhangs—make this centrally located hotel an underrated gem. Clean, affordable and stylish—that's an all-too-rare hotel trifecta in the budget category.

Do you feel like there's a part of your body that you just don't really like or you want to "fix"? You might be sufferring from a condition called Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). Defined as a psychiatric illness or condition where subjective feeling of ugliness or repulsiveness despite the person's normal appearance can exist, BDD causes the the person to be occupied with the imagined defect in either one feature or several features of their body and can sometimes be blown out of proportion. This can cause psychological distress and can even impairs occupational or social functioning. People with this disorder see themselves as "ugly" and often avoid social exposure to others or even turn to plastic surgery to try to improve their appearance.
BDD is a chronic (long-term) disorder that affects men and women equally. It usually begins during the teen years or early adulthood though the specific causes of this disorder is not known. Like many other mental illnesses, body dysmorphic disorder may result from a combination of causes:
- Brain chemical differences. Some evidence suggests that neurotransmitters or naturally occurring brain chemicals linked to mood may play a role in causing body dysmorphic disorder.
- Structural brain differences. Certain areas of the brain may not have developed properly in some people who have body dysmorphic disorder.
- Genes. Some studies show that body dysmorphic disorder is more common in people whose biological family members also have the condition, indicating that there may be a gene or genes associated with this disorder.
- Environment. Your environment, life experiences and culture may contribute to body dysmorphic disorder, especially if they involve negative experiences about your body or self-image. Other external factors that might influence the development of or trigger BDD can include: traumatic events or emotional conflict during childhood; low self-esteem ; parents and others who are critical of the person's appearance.
People with BDD often worry about hardly noticeable features like skin imperfections like wrinkles, scars, acne, and blemishes; the presence or absence of hair on the head or any body parts; the shape and size of the nose or any other facial features; and body weight. Other areas of concern include the size of the penis, muscles, breasts, thighs, buttocks, and the presence of certain body odors.
How to Spot a Person sufferring from BDD
Some of the warning signs that a person may have BDD include:
- Frequent examination of yourself in the mirror or, conversely, avoidance of mirrors altogether
- Engaging in repetitive and time-consuming behaviors, such as picking at the skin, and trying to hide or cover up the perceived defect
- Strong belief that you have an abnormality or defect in your appearance that makes you ugly
- Constantly asking for reassurance that the defect is not visible or too obvious
- Repeatedly measuring or touching the perceived defect
- Experiencing problems at work or school, or in relationships due to the inability to stop focusing about the perceived defect
- Feeling self-conscious and not wanting to go out in public, or feeling anxious when around other people
- Refusal to appear in pictures
- Belief that others take special notice of your appearance in a negative way
- Frequent cosmetic procedures with little satisfaction
- Comparison of your appearance with that of others
- Chronic low self-esteem and strong feelings of shame.
Treatment for BDD can include a combination of the following therapies:
- Psychotherapy – this can be individual counseling that focuses on changing the thinking and behavior of a person with body dysmorphic disorder, aiming to correct the false belief about the defect and to minimize the compulsive behavior.
- Medication: Certain antidepressant medications called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are showing promise in treating body dysmorphic disorder.
- Group and/or family therapy: Family support is very important to treatment success. It is important that family members understand body dysmorphic disorder and learn to recognize its signs and symptoms.
If you think you are suffering from BDD, here are some simple tips that might help you.
- Accept that you cannot please veryone. The moment you set yourself to pleasing everyone veryone is the moment you succumb to loneliness, remorse and dissatisfaction.
- Choose what you read, hear or watch because not all you see are real.
- Rather than having a high standard of beauty, find a partner who will accept you for your flaws and strengths.
- Choose friends who love themselves and inspire you to live healthily and gratefully.

Cass alumna Alice Emily will start the MFA Interdepartmental Sound Arts at the Computer Music Center (Columbia University) in September 2014.
Date: 28 April 2014
Cass alumna Alice Emily will start the MFA Interdepartmental Sound Arts at the Computer Music Center (Columbia University) in September 2014. The course at Columbia is 2 years long, and it is new to Columbia having run only since September 2013, so that Alice will be enrolling onto the second intake. Sound Arts is also a rather new artistic discipline, which has a variety of creative outlets but where sound is the key component. The MA is essentially a Fine Art program with the entire 2 years being aimed at the completion of a final year exhibition/show.
Javier Garavaglia, course leader for BSc Music Technology Sound for Media said "The fact that this MA in NYC has only four places available puts into perspective not only the type of education Alice received at the CASS during her studies in the Sound for Media Music Tech course, but also her talent and dedication to this particular type of Sound Art."
Alice's final project for the BSc Sound for Media at the CASS can be seen here.
Congratulations to Alice!

We asked Macworld Online readers to email us with their views on the news that there'll be no Apple at Apple Expo 2000. In this, our third batch of reader messages, it's clear that UK users aren't very pleased with Apple's reneging on its promise to attend.
1) Yet another kick in the teeth for the Mac community here in the UK. They say that Macintosh users are the most loyal to the platform. Where's the loyalty from Apple to its customers?
- Paul Hartley
2) It's a conspiracy to hand the UK business and home market to Bill Gates on a plate. This is as flabbergasting as the teacher who told me that Xemplar - Apple's own education supplier - sold them a Fujitsu PC!
I spend most of my time defending Macs against the "me-too" attitude of PC owners. This kind of arrogance will serve only to alienate UK Macintosh users. I am so angry, I want to buy a PC
- Neill Blume
3) I feel that Apple's decision to abandon Apple Expo is a mistake. It will have offended and angered unnecessarily both users and dealers alike. It was becoming very rare indeed of late to hear the infamous comment "great machines, shame about the company" that was so common a few years back. Now it is back. It makes a lot of people here feel that the UK market is of little importance for Apple.
The Mac is a community as much as it is a machine, a product or a market. It does need events like the Apple Expo to reinforce this. It doesn't need Apple back-pedalling on their word and offending the very people who have chosen to spend their money and, in the case of dealers and professional users, to make their professional lives and their income depend on their machines.
Apple should reconsider its decision.
- Flavio Matani
4) It seems that time and time again Apple manages to screw things up. It's a vicious cycle they can't seem to break. The moment they come out of the depths of humiliation and near extinction they forget immediately who drives the market. Apple is incorrigibly deaf to what we the consumers want. Mac loyalists have fought and defended Apple for nearly two decades and we're growing weary and unable to carry on. If Apple will not hear the users, then it is time another company become the driving force for real, usable, and ingenious products. Adieu Apple.
- Rohan Samahon
5) Sigh... this is quite sickening, we wait for months to get our computers, we wait for years to get an expo, then no Expo!!!!
- Chris Mahon
6) They must be drunk in the boardroom again! Just shameful, and just when the spirit was rebuilding... Think different again!
- A relatively new Mac user, Jon S.
7) The arrogance and downright ignorance of the so called "smart" people is just appalling.
- Dave Larmer
8) Quite frankly, I'm disgusted - but not remotely surprised. Apple has always been totally arrogant and never given a damn for its customers as far as I can see. Good machines, crap company. The only reason I stick with them is because the Wintel lot are even worse, and I have now invested so much time and money in Mac peripherals and software that it would be a nightmare to change.
- Lynn Daley
9) Apple might as well shoot itself in the head.
- Dominic Old
10) I've used Macs for six years. I've loved Macs for six years. To be honest even if the trade show had gone ahead, I'd probably not have had the chance to go. BUT the people who do attend these events are the important ones - company decision makers, IT managers and graphic platform buyers.
Apple's attitude, as pointed out by so many, is disgustingly arrogant.
If the aforementioned important people can't see this platform represented 'in the flesh', what are they left with?
Eventually this long-term, high-handed dismissal of a common sense need for Apple-based expos is going to kill the Mac platform stone dead.
It's gone on for far too long and, as a punter, I'm sick of hearing and reading reports of 'marketing strategy' from Apple publicity people while we are still forced to pay more than PC owners for our beloved Macs.
To be honest I no longer care. While writing this letter I really am starting to wonder why we bother to follow this paper trail any longer.
- Mark Thomas
11) Just what is going on at Apple these days? Was its recent recovery just a blip? Could it be that underneath its great products, Apple Inc is just as stupid and arrogant as ever?
I find it difficult to believe. I almost forgave the G4 fiasco - even though I was intending on ordering a 500MHz model myself - but pulling out of Expo 2000, why?
Like other people have mentioned, most of us cannot travel to Paris to attend that show - and why should we? We Macintosh users in the UK have stuck by Apple through its darkest days, regularly going to Olympia each November, and now? Well, just today I got a friend her first PowerBook. For the first time ever, I'm regretting I convinced her away from Wintel.
Apple survived because of its users' devotion to the machine. If they disregard us now, heaven help them. I always swore I'd never be caught dead using a Windows machine. Now? It doesn't seem such a bad idea after all. Caught between two monopolists, which one do you choose? I used to favour the underdog - but I'm wising up quickly. I love my PowerBook G3, but I'm beginning to loathe the new Apple.
- Stéphane Paris
12) History repeats itself, sadly enough! But they won't get away with this so easily. Success is not only about great innovative products, but first of all its about "communication", ... .
- Bernard Voortman.
13) As a loyal Macintosh user since 1985 (125K), I am perplexed about Apple's strategy. As a University lecturer in management, I am always telling my students about ' the marketing concept' ; i.e. identifying customer needs and supplying customer satisfaction. I have used 'Apple' in the past as an example of how not to do it and it looks as I will have many more case studies in the future - the G4 fiasco is already a case study.
But, seriously, would I recommend anyone buying a Mac ? No. Not because of the OS, but because of Apple's instability towards its customers. I remember Ric Ford 18 months ago outlining what he thought was Apple's strategy under the iCEO. He predicted a change back to the "bad old days" as soon as the first smell of success wafted through Apple's HQ. He was right.
Basically, as a potential consumer, I don't trust Apple. Sorry, but that is my considered opinion. And that is why I have not reinvested in Apple products for the last five years.
- K H Waters
14) This is a disgrace and a disaster!
- Robert Cummins, an architect who was going to the show from Ireland

Oh, Washing Wednesday, why do you have to be today?? I have so much laundry to do and so little willingness to do it!!! ha-ha-ha. I usually try to get my laundry done before Wednesday, but I have been very busy and lazy (yes, both) this week. So, today is the day. Or else there will be Krafty 'streakers' around Florida tomorrow!!! LOL
After looking around Etsy (for way to long) I found this really great product. The simpler the better, right? Well, this has only 4 ingredients and looks to be a great way to wash your cloth diapers. Please check out Dr. Erickson's Diaper Detergent. Featured here is the 32 oz. size, however, it does come in smaller sizes. There are a few mild scents, and also an unscented version. Where was all these wonderful products when I was a new mother???
Please check out Dr. Erickson's shop and leave a comment or two and let them know what you think! And, ENJOY your Washing Wednesday, even if you have to do the laundry! ~KM

This introductory course is intended to cover the basics of Butler for Trello.
When I created this course, the ButlerBot was the main tool to use for creating workflows in Trello boards. This has changed.
Today, the Butler Power-Up is the only tool that is recommended for use if you want to implement some workflows into your Trello boards.
This free course covers only the ButlerBot - and still gives you some good insights into how the tool is working. This hasn't changed with the Power-Up. However, the Butler Power-Up's user interface looks different than than the ButlerBot.
However, if you want to learn how to set up meaningful workflows in your Trello boards with the Butler Power-Up, I recommend you check out the workshop course I am offering on my website.
