Edvard Munch at Hotel Continental
One of Norway's largest private Munch collections can be seen in the lobby bar Dagligstuen at Hotel Continental. By sheer chance, the second-generation owner, Arne Boman Hansen, spotted 12 prints by Edvard Munch at an art dealer's in Oslo.
Since Boman Hansen was interested in buying them all, he was offered a special price – for a mere NOK 5,500, he became the proud owner of the 12 authentic prints, which are now the cornerstone of the Hotel Continental's investments in art and culture. Edvard Munch lived from 1863 to 1944 and was a renowned painter and graphic artist, in Norway and internationally. Indeed he helped pioneer expressionism.
Our collection
Our collection comprises the following prints:
- Towards the forest I, 1897, woodcut
- Melancholy III, 1896, woodcut
- Vampire II, 1895–1902, lithograph and combination print
- The last hour, 1917, woodcut
- Workers, 1903, etching
- Brothel scene, 1930, lithograph
- Kiss IV, 1902, woodcut
- Helge Rode, 1908–09, lithograph
- Marta Sandal, 1902, lithograph
- Dr. Daniel Jacobsen, 1908–09, lithograph
- Wolfgang Gurlitt, 1912, lithograph
- Self-portrait, 1895, lithograph

Yakima rocketbox – durable, more storage space and easy to install
Those who have small children usually have many things to bring along with them on a road trip especially a long one. They might find the boot space not sufficient to store all what they need for their long journey.
If you face a similar dilemma each time you wish to make a journey somewhere with your young children, do not worry. There is a way to store extra items.
If you were to install a Yakima rocketbox on top of your vehicle's roof, you can enjoy a couple of benefits. This kind of box not only gives extra storage space but it is durable as well. It can withstand any bumpy ride to any place.
In addition, installing one of the Thule roof racks is rather fast and easy, with no necessity to use any kind of tools to do so. This type of rack is usually made from high-grade materials. So, you do not have to worry about any possible scratches or dents to the rack while you are traveling to a certain place.
At times, the branches of a tree may cause deep scratches to a rooftop carrier when a vehicle with such a carrier passes right below the branches.
Get More Facebook Likes
Facebook is an incredible site. Literally billions of people are using it. They chat with each other, buying facebook fans offer advice, ask questions and many other things.
With all these people on Facebook, do you think it would be a great place to try and sell things?
Of course it would. The only problem is accessing all these people.
It is like people are in a room and you need the key to access them.
The trouble is how do you find the key?
Most people are not too bothered about trying to find a key. If however you are an online marketer, the keys hold the solution to your financial well being. Let us look at how you go about finding the key to unlock those doors. You have to start out slowly. You need to get a few people to like your page. If someone likes your page then they are giving you the key. However that person can take it back at any time.
The big question is how do you make sure they do not take away the key?
The skill here is to keep posting unique and interesting content. If they know that you are frequently posting new and interesting content, then they are more likely to let you hand on to the key. Now the great thing about Facebook is your posts are posted on the wall of the friends of that person. That is the power of Facebook. They like interaction with other people. Now if other people like what you are writing about, there is a good chance that the person will like your page as well. That is the power of viral marketing. Try and get the person to interact with you. Ask the person questions or opinions. If they reply to you then they are interacting with you.
This is what Facebook loves. Try and ask questions that they may have to ask their friends for the answer. That way you will be spreading the interaction even further.
It does take time to build a network of likes. In the first few months it might seem to be going very slowly, but as time goes on and you get more likes, then the chances are their friends will see your posts and like it as well.

I'm back! And I've brought a fic a began a few months ago. Anyway, I've decided to post it here (you probably figured that out already...). Alrighty. btw...my prolouges are always short...
Table of Content
The clear, pure light stung as I opened my eyes. I looked around at my surroundings. I was in the middle of a vibrant grassy meadow, the trees and bushes bursting with life, thriving, living at the pinnacle of life. The sunlight streamed though the supple branches of the rich brown tree, the pure golden rays touching my face, warming my body…and my soul. This was paradise.
I stumbled over to the crystal clear lake, shimmering, gleaming in the sunlight. I submerged my hands into the cool liquid and scooped it up. The pure crystals fell to the ground, breaking into many shining pieces. I touched the pure, refreshing water to my lips, the liquid cooling my body as it streamed down my throat, and refreshing my soul with its life-giving powers.
I climbed up the tree vibrant tree, bearing fruits in its branches. The brilliant red apple gleamed in the sunlight. The apple looked so lush, the digestive juices practically dripped from my mouth. I picked one off, leaf and all. I took a big bite from it, the apple chunks crunching under my teeth, the fruits sweet juices oozing out, stimulating my taste buds. I swallowed and took another bite from it.
There was a field of flowers to the west of the lake. I made my way around the majestic lake to the field. There were flowers of many different colors, blues, greens, whites, yellows, and more! The flowers blended together in a warming ensemble. I dived into the flowers, letting them tickle my belly. I began smelling each type, each one with a different smell. The aromas were amazing, they melted my insides like microwaved butter.
The sun was glaring now, but not irritating, but still getting excessive. I shielded my eyes with my hand and dashed toward the tree and leaned next to it. The shade under the tree was wonderful, not too hot, not too cold, and blocked the rays of the wonderful sun from my eyes. It was perfect. I looked around as I sat, seeing all the places I had been in paradise. But something was bothering me, there was an opening at the end of the towering, lush bushes. It seemed that there was more to this world, more to see and cherish.
I walked out of the meadow, my curiosity getting the best of me. I wanted to see the rest of the world…
Little did I know, I would regret it…

Pain in the aaSemantics
We (other members of the 3tera team and I) had the pleasure of talking to John Foley this week. John is writing for InformationWeek and is focusing on Cloud Computing. This is a knowledgeable guy who has thoroughly researched the space.
During the chat, something very important dawned on me. This space is getting noisier and noisier – rightfully so – Cloud Computing is hotter than Hades and better than sliced bread! And we are making it even noisier with our semantics.
People do not define terms in this space consistently. I think it's ironic that the semantics of Cloud Computing are, er, uh …, well, cloudy.
I'll paraphrase:
IW – You talk about internal Clouds behind firewalls. How can a Cloud be private and internal?
3tera – We think of Cloud Computing in terms of how, not where?
IW – I disagree. Cloud Computing is running on IT infrastructure that you don't own – someone else is the datacenter operator.
3tera – Maybe this is just semantics. We could call private Clouds "internal utilities" instead of private "Clouds". If an enterprise were to run an app in an external Cloud and wants to connect that to their systems of record in their own datacenters, they might want to consider the same platform in their data centers."
…. and so on.
After wrangling about that for several minutes, the subject changed. All we accomplished though was an addition to the confusion.
The epiphany for me during that conversation is that whatever I call Cloud Computing and whatever someone else calls Cloud Computing is kind of irrelevant. A couple of years from now, someone will obsolete the term Cloud Computing with something more trendy and we'll debate what THAT is.
For me, the future holds computing services on demand – Information Technology as a Service – MASSIVELY scalable IT as a Service. ITaaS – the sound of that tickles my funny bone. ITaaS will use the Internet and, I think, intranets as well. End users will need no regard for the underlying technologies that support their services. They will only need to know that the services are available and perform at any scale on demand.
If someone installs a generator in their home instead of using the power utility, they get electricity on demand, the same as if they plug into a public utility.
I concede though, at face value, the economics of Cloud Computing seem to favor Clouds as external entities. After all, the hallmark of anything on demand is that you only pay for what you consume. External Clouds can accomplish this by making the same hardware available, at different times, to different users, thus, eliminating idle time and getting the most bang for the buck. But looking deeper, the economics favor internal, private Clouds as well. If a data center manager wants to be provisioned only for average usage rather than peak usage, he/she can do that if he/she is on a Cloud infrastructure that can grab resources from external Clouds only occasionally, when needed. If you add to that, with a Cloud done right, the data center manager manages applications rather than servers, decreasing administration costs; and, time to market is greatly reduced due to the lack of need for tedious provisioning, configuring, etc., the economics of the private Cloud become quite compelling.
To me, the bottom line is this. This is the 21st century. It has been almost forty years since a man walked on the moon. For most of those forty years, almost all businesses have relied to some degree on Information Technology. It's about time that IT is available on demand – really on demand – and everyone can have access to world class technology, only paying for what they consume.
So, call it Cloud, call it Utility, call it Platform as a Service, call it ITaas, call it whatever you want to call it. But please, don't call me late to dinner … and, pretty please, don't call me late to the on demand computing revolution!

Arcturus Kirwin (also known as Fiscal, Nicolyrezk) primarily plays a blue-and-white, yellow-spotted female dragon. He was the system administrator and lead developer for e621, which was handed over to Varka in September 2010. He currently splits his time between Pennsylvania, United States and an Undisclosed Location.
[edit] Furry
Arcturus classes himelf as otherkin, but often jokes that he is just "suffering from delusions" instead. Whilst usually an anthropomorphic dragon, he is also known as a shapeshifter with many varying guises.
[edit] Real Life
In the land outside of the vast, bizarre Internet, Arcturus is a rather diminutive person of mostly Irish descent. He spends his days working on new and exciting projects for Angry Draken Media as well as a number of projects such as e621 in his free time. Whilst many online find him to be a rather exuberant and outspoken person, in real life he is quite introverted and shy.
[edit] Technical responsibilities
Arcturus helps host a number of websites for individuals, groups and small organizations, both furry and not. In the past he has helped to stream FBC content and, after having helped to rebroadcast and archive 2 Sense, does occasionally broadcast shows herself. He was the founder of ArtPlz after the breakup of Fur Affinity, at which time he withdrew his hosting following a managerial disagreement with Fur Affinity's founder and administrator Jheryn Lightfoot.
ArtPlz itself also saw some drama after he developed ChanPlz, an Fchan clone for posting furry art. Several volunteers withdrew their support for ArtPlz, such as Arshes Nei stating ethical reasons for doing so. ChanPlz was taken down a few days later by Arcturus and others involved in its creation.
Arcturus was an administrator for and systems administrator of WTFur, a mature furry image board much like Fchan, but these days runs, owns and maintains the furry community e621. As of August 31, 2010, he no longer runs e621. He shut it down in response to allegations of the site hosting child pornography, and gave the data over to Varka when he offered to take over the site.

Nashville-Davidson metropolitan government (balance) >Household Appliances > A-1 Appliance Co
5410 Harding Pike, Nashville, TN | Directions 3720536.099246 -86.872529
Neighborhoods: West Meade
Appliance Parts – Thanks Dennis. Excellent customer service.
paid money for nothing!!! – Beware! They charged me $120 for doing nothing!
I scheduled service online, and they called to confirm the appointment twice. The tech came out and was at my home for 15 mins. The repairs that were needed were going to cost more then buying a washing machine, so I asked him what I owed him for coming out. I expected to pay something, but $120!!!!! This charge was not listed on their website, nor was I told about it when the appointment was confirmed! I guess I'm not going to be so trusting in the future and ask what the charges will be upfront.
Great Service! – I have never posted a review on citysearch before, but I just had to write and say how impressed I was with the customer service in the Service department at A-1. Dave came out to my house twice, both times at the beginning of his 2-hour window which seems to never happen anymore. He had to order parts for my refrigerator, so he was only able to give me a temporary fix. But only 2 days later he was back out with the part and did a great job fixing my refrigerator. He was very polite the whole time as my 2 small children ran around the house probably driving him crazy. :) I will definitely be calling them again in the future for any repairs I might need and plan to shop there when I'm in the market for some new appliances. I highly recommend them and want to give a special thanks to Dave for being so great!
They made things right! – I think in today's big-box, digital world, the concept of customer service and satisfaction is way too often forgotten. A-1 has made me think differently. They went out of their way, above and beyond to make things right. I received a personal call from the President of A-1 to fix a problem I had. You don't get that from the big-box chains. You don't get that from e-commerce. You get that from local retailers and local service providers that truly care about their customers. A-1 has proven to me they do truly care. That garners praise in my books.
I would never shop with them again. – I purchased a new dishwasher, and paid $125 to have it installed. in the installation process, the tech accidentally disconnected the garbage disposal. when I finally figured out what had happened, I called A1, and asked them to come fix it. They told me that it wasn't possible, that the tech said he hadn't touched the garbage disposal. I pulled the dishwasher out myself, and I was correct, he disconnected the garbage disposal. I wasted four hours dealing with this. I asked my person at A1 for the $125 back I paid for the installation, since I had to resinstall it myself. he said he'd talk with the manager, and get back to me. he never got back to me. As for the reply to Christine from the president of A1, I did contact A1, and they ignored me. you decide if you want to work with this company.
Very happy with my purchase – Tom...... Thank you soooo much for filling out and mailing my rebate forms.....I really do appreciate your effort. Also, thank you for always helping me buy my appliances......you are so honest and knowledgeable and I rely on you to tell me what to get. I really do like the Bosch and very glad that I bought that brand. I always recommend A-1 to friends and add your name too. See you next time!
I just used A-1 Appliance for a dishwasher repair on a listing of mine and am extremely impressed! The service department was really prompt about returning my calls and they had people out within a day and here is the shocker; the service guys showed up when they said the would! They made very clear notes about the issue and also were great about calling and me with a price in advance so that I could make arrangements for payment easily. All in all, I can't say on price if they are the most inexpensive but their service and quality of technicians are excellent and in the long term that's worth a lot.
You save yourself a lot of headaches by staying away – This is an awful company. I was new to Nashville and paid for three different repairs in my home. They broke every single piece of equipment they worked on and refused to acknowledge it. A little problem with your equipment turns into a huge headache after they work on it. They exchange pieces that are working perfectly and in the process loose screws, damage other parts - I had no idea how bad it could be. After talking to some of my friends I was told that they do not let A1 into their home.
Very clean.

Manufacturer: Sciroxx
Substance: Stanozolol
Package: 10 mL vial (50 mg/mL)
Anabolic steroids such as Stanozolol are synthetic derivatives of the male hormone testosterone. Stanozolol has a pronounced anabolic effect with fewer masculinizing side effects than testosterone and some other synthetic anabolic steroids. Anabolic steroids are used in stimulating appetite and increasing weight gain, strength, and vigor. They should be used as a part of an overall program with other supportive and nutritional therapies.
This is a very popular anabolic steroid, which is a derivative of dihydrotestosterone. Winstrol is a relatively low androgenic steroid which will not aromatise. It is moderately toxic to the liver. Very few users report any water retention or any other side effects while using Winstrol. It is a popular drug for cutting in a stack with Primobolan or Parabolan. When stacked with Testosterone it can be very effective for a size and strength gain. Women use the drug quite often, but it can cause virilising effects for some women even at low dosages. Most of the muscle gains made while taking the Winstrol are retained after the drug is discontinued. The injectable veterinarian form is better than the oral. Many feel that the injectable must be administered at least twice a week: some take shots every day for better effects. Dosages range from 3 to 5 cc?s per week for men, 1 to 2 cc's in women. Oral dosage is in the area of 16 to 30 mg per day for men, 4 to 8 mg for women. Winstrol is not too hard to find on the black marked.
Stanozolol, commonly sold under the name Winstrol (oral) and Winstrol Depot (intra-muscular), was developed by Winthrop Laboratories in 1962. It is a synthetic anabolic steroid derived from testosterone, and has been approved by the FDA for human use.
Unlike most injectable anabolic steroids, Stanozolol is not esterified and is sold as an aqueous suspension, or in oral tablet form. The drug has a large oral bioavailability, due to a C17 α-alkylation which allows the hormone to survive first pass liver metabolism when ingested. It is because of this that Stanozolol is also sold in tablet form.
Stanozolol is also one of the few compounds that women can take safely, as its anabolic:androgenic ratio is quite skewed towards anabolism.
Stanozolol has been used on both animal and human patients for a number of conditions. In humans, it has been demonstrated to be successful in treating anaemia and hereditary angioedema. Veterinarians may prescribe the drug to improve muscle growth, red blood cell production, increase bone density and stimulate the appetite of debilitated or weakened animals.
Stanozolol is one of the Anabolic steroids commonly used as an ergogenic aid and is banned from use in sports competition under the auspices of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF).
Use in bodybuilding
Like other anabolic steroids, stanozolol is classified as a Schedule III controlled substance under federal regulation. In New York, the state legislature classifies analbolic steroids under DEA Schedule II.
Used illegally in bodybuilding, typically "stacked" with other testosterone-based anabolic steroids, Stanozolol is liked by many due to the fact it causes strength increases without excess weight-gain, promotes increases in vascularity, and will not convert to estrogen. It also does not cause excess water retention, and even sometimes is thought to have a diuretic effect on the body.
Stanozolol is commonly used by athletes and bodybuilders alike to lose fat while retaining lean body mass. It is usually used in a cutting cycle, to help preserve lean body mass while metabolizing adipose, although it has not been proven conclusively that it has any special fat-burning properties.
It is presented most commonly as a 50 mg/mL injection or a 50 mg tablet. However, recently 100 mg/mL versions have become available. A common dosage can be 25-100 mg/day, with optimal results usually seen at 50 mg/day. It is reduced to micrometer particles in aqueous suspension and does not have a typical elimination half-life. Authentic Stanozol can easily be seen, because it will separate in its container if left undisturbed for a number of hours (the micronized crystal will fall to the bottom, and the water suspension will rise to the top). It has a white, milky colour.
It should be taken no more than 48 hours apart, with some users preferring to inject every day, or even twice a day, to maintain serum levels.
An alternative to Stanozolol is Furazabol. Furazabol's effects are virtually identical to Stanzolol except that instead of having an extremely adverse effect on cholesterol values, Furazabol actually improves a person's blood lipid profile (at therapeutic doses, not performance enhancing ones).Sold under the trade name Mitolan, Furazabol is a standard treatment in Japan for hyperlipemia.

Before making first purchase there is a need to do your research so that you know opinions and shopping experience of other users. Start out with an inexpensive steroid order to learn if the company is trustworthy. We understand that making a purchase online involves a great deal of trust on your part. RoidsMaLL.net takes this trust very seriously, and makes it highest priority to ensure the security and confidentiality of the information you provide when buying steroids online with us.
Since the body already produces testosterone naturally in the testicles, bodybuilding anabolic steroids generally just help the body produce more and add it to the bloodstream more rapidly. This can produce a variety of effects on the human body. Some bodybuilding steroids produce a large amount of acne on the user's body. They can also give the user a deeper voice, increased body hair, and an increase in strength.
Bodybuilders also takes muscle steroids to boost their training. These are similar to the hormones our body naturally produces. It is used mainly to build strength, muscle size, and stamina. The muscle mass you will develop from taking steroids will astound you. Steroids will increase the cell volume that will give you that bigger pump.

2781 Jefferson Centre Way Ste 4, Jeffersonville, IN | Directions 4713038.325936 -85.709769
Horrible service, Did not receive Refund – May 21st, 2011
Friday night, May 20th, I called into True Colors to ask about their spray tans. I talked to a lady who told me everything about exfoliating, about waiting to shower, how much everything cost, etc. I thought it was a great deal, even though I was happy with Sun Tan City's sprays before, I would try this because of the price.
The morning of May 21st I woke up around 9am, took a shower, exfoliated very well with exfoliating gloves like I have done before to get a spray tan at Sun Tan City. I should have just went to Sun Tan City since they have done well in the past, but i thought True Colors had a better deal.
After exfoliating, I did not put on any lotion or makeup. I then went to get a pedicure at the salon, There was minimal oil left on my lower legs and feet. This is the only area that had any kind of oil or lotion. I carefully wiped down my legs first with a baby wipe and then with a towelette Dawn had sold me, she said this would take care of it. Again, this was only on my lower legs and feet. This was one of the areas that the spray tan did not get very well, but the MAIN PROBLEM like I told the representative was with my face that was so splotchy, and my neck, arms, and feet were rust color, and had very uneven color. I looked like I had a disease, and everyone I passed laughed at the way it looked.
Dawn Long sold me a spray tan along with the accelerator lotion, and towelette to wipe my legs, and also the triple boost so I would have color within 4 hours. After about an hour, I started getting very itchy and looked into the mirror. I noticed splotchiness, and uneven color everywhere on my face and on my arms and legs. Dawn never gave me a receipt of my purchase, only the VIP contract receipt. She said everything was in the system I didn't need a receipt. My total was $27 and some change. It was a prorated amount, like $17 for the VIP and two other packets were 20%off, including the accelerator and towelette to wipe my legs with.
I went back into the salon, an hour and a half after i received the spray, and showed a sales person my tan. She said her boss was in a tanning bed at the time and she would be about 15 minutes. I didn't stay to talk to Dawn, since i had to try and scrub off the horrible spray tan I had received and had to be ready for a graduation party in 3 hours.
She said she would take care of it. By taking care of it, she told her manager about it, and they went ahead and took my card out of the system and cancelled the contract. She said to come in Monday to get a refund, since she didn't know how to do one.
I went in Monday to get the refund, and the lady at the desk stated that they did not do ANY REFUNDS and I would have to call corporate, because they do not handle those. I was not impressed, since that is bad business. She said to contact corporate, which I called and have phone records of 4 days in a row, and left voicemails everyday. Not one person answered the phone during the week. This seems odd to me, that there are no secretaries or people that handle these "refunds". They never returned my calls. Then I call on Friday, May 27th, and they say it is my fault that i didn't exfoliate my legs properly. How can they tell me I didn't exfoliate my legs? I did the morning of, and that is BAD BUSINESS. DO NOT GO THERE!! It is not worth it, just go to Sun Tan City and save the trouble please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In the digital swirl of Facebook status updates, emotions expressed online can be contagious, according to a new study encompassing more than 100 million people in the U.S. and a billion messages they posted.
WSJ story on a new study by researchers at the University of California, San Diego, Yale University and Facebook Inc.
Bring a whole new meaning to "going viral," doesn't it?
Oversharing: 40% of 18-24 year olds use social media in the bathroom
Also more than half (56%) of adults ages 25-34 use social media at work, and 44 percent of millennials use social media around the table at a restaurant, according to Nielsen's new Digital Consumer Report.
Though the average Facebook user may not view her profile as art, Harvard Berkman Center fellow Judith Donath places the "data portrait" in an art-historical context in her forthcoming book, The Social Machine. Whereas medieval portraits signaled the subject's status through symbols and poses, in the Information Age, portraiture often arises from recordings and data.
How most social media managers see discussion on Twitter…
Sometimes the hardest part is monitoring what consumers are actually saying in social media about your company. Especially in YouTube comments…
Just saying, in case you think no one is listening, re: termsofenragement:
Corporate social media accounts just remind me of this:

I just wanted a good shave.
So I did a segment on NBC's Today Show about the lost art of wetshaving, and how old-school razors, badger hair shaving brushes, and high-end English shaving creams not only deliver the greatest shave you can possibly imagine, but bring back the pleasant, gentlemanly ritual that's been missing since the bloodbath of 1971 when Idi Amin led a coup to become ruler of Uganda and Gillette introduced the first twin-blade razor.
Millions of people all over the world watched the segment, and I guess lots of guys were unhappy with their shaves too, because the viewer reaction was unlike anything I've experienced in the years I've been appearing on Today. As ridiculous as it sounds, the ensuing rush on razors, brushes, and creams created a worldwide shortage of shaving goods — vendors reported doing a year's worth of business in a few days. Overnight, funky vintage razors caked with hobo whiskers and soap scum that used to go for a few bucks on eBay suddenly began climbing to well over $100. Up had become down, cats began dancing with dogs, and the handful of online devotees who'd been beating a lonely paradiddle for traditional wetshaving all these years, beseeching the masses to throw down their Mach3s and pressurized cans of goo, nonetheless began loudly grumbling that the "@%#$ yuppies" were now storming the gates. Ain't populism grand?

As you all know by now, the world lost a great one yesterday. To commemorate the life of Nelson Mandela, next week's cover of The New Yorker will show a beautifully powerful oil painting of a younger version of the leader by artist Kadir Nelson. "I've recently made a children's book about Nelson Mandela, but for a New Yorker cover, I settled on a younger image of him during the time that he was on trial with over a hundred of his comrades," he told the magazine.
"From looking at the photos of the time, I could see that the energy around him was very strong and that his peers were very much with and behind him," Nelson added. "He was clearly a leader. I wanted to make a simple and bold statement about Mandela and his life as a freedom fighter. The raised fist and the simple, stark palette reminded me of posters and anti-apartheid imagery of the nineteen-eighties. This painting is a tribute to the struggle for freedom from all forms of discrimination, and Nelson's very prominent role as a leader in the anti-apartheid movement."
Nelson continued: "Being an artist is kind of like being an actor. So as I painted Nelson's portrait, I felt empowered and proud like the man himself. He has long been a personal hero of mine. I saw him speak shortly after he was released from prison, in 1990. It was both an honor and a privilege to paint his portrait and tell his story."
The cover is entitled, "Madiba," which was Mandela's tribal name.

Spas >Jurlique Concept Store
2136 Fillmore St, San Francisco, CA | Directions 9411537.789670 -122.433910
Mon. - Fri. 10am - 9:30pm;Sat. 10am - 9pm;Sun. 11am - 7pm
Neighborhoods: North, Pacific Heights
No More Treatments...agh.... – I am a HUGE fan of Jurlique products and facials. Although as a heads up they recently renovated their store Fillmore Street and there is NO MORE Facial treatments of any kind. A real bummer, but that won't keep me away from the awesome products.
Upper Fillmore is home to one of the local links in this Aussie-based chain of all-natural, all-organic day spas. – This nature-inspired spa exclusively uses plant- and herb-based products, the ingredients for which are all grown on the company's organic farm in South Australia. Facials, wraps and aromatherapy treatments are a feast for the senses, with botanicals like rosemary, aloe and chamomile in every product. Treatments available at this relatively traditional spa include a 30-minute anti-stress facial for the client on-the-go, an hour-long moisturizing hot oil body wrap and a dedicated men's facial.
smells great – i love jurlique! every product i have is fantastic and the customer service at the fillmore store is great. they help you find just what you need without up-selling (given the prices of the products this is appreciated) though the $ is definiately worth it.
Excellent treatments, unparalleled products – Have been using Jurlique products for two years - but had gotten products through other spas in town that use Jurlique. And I have to say this was the best facial I have had in SF. Truly cleansing, relaxing, and helpful. I feel revived and thank the aesthetician who worked on me - she knew her stuff and was able to give me a fantastic deep cleanse facial which left my very sensitive skin without the redness I usually get post facial. Definitely going back for more. No hustle and bustle just true relaxation and the products smell delicious and are totally free of chemicals. Great stuff!
Great Facial – I had a wonderful facial here by Amanda. Great skill and wonderful aromas. Loved it!

Bonds of Trust
After ending her passionless marriage, Cali Reynolds is eager to live out her forbidden fantasies. Her first step is attending new members' night at The Den, the most exclusive sex club in town. Perhaps here she can find a man who understands her desire to be dominated...
At first, Jake McCallister thinks Cali has come to his club for the wrong reasons. But when he discovers she is seeking fulfillment after years of denial, he's intrigued--and takes it upon himself to initiate her into the pleasures she's been missing.
Her first encounter with Jake is everything Cali has always craved, and more; she's not prepared for the feelings he inspires in her. And Jake is just as surprised by his overwhelming attraction to Cali. As their play intensifies, so does their bond. Now, Jake doesn't want anyone but Cali--but is he ready to officially claim her? And will she submit to being his forever?

While both instruments function in the same way, GOME has a limited spatial resolution of only 320 x 40 km, compared to a typical 60 x 30 km with SCIAMACHY, which also observes the atmosphere in two different views -downwards or 'nadir' looking as well as making 'limb' observations in the direction of flight - and has a significantly larger spectral range than its predecessor. Teams from the Universities of Bremen and Heidelberg in Germany, the Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy (BIRA-IASB) and the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) have successfully processed SCIAMACHY data to generate the sharpest maps yet made of the vertical columns of tropospheric nitrogen dioxide.
"The higher spatial resolution delivered by SCIAMACHY means we see a lot of detail in these global images, even resolving individual city sources" said Steffen Beirle of the University of Heidelberg's Institute for Environmental Physics, responsible for the map shown above.
"High vertical column distributions of nitrogen dioxide are associated with major cities across North America and Europe, along with other sites such as Mexico City in Central America and South African coal-fired power plants located close together in the eastern Highveld plateau of that country.
"Then a very high concentration is found above north eastern China. Also across South East Asia and much of Africa can be seen nitrogen dioxide produced by biomass burning. Ship tracks are visible in some locations: look at the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean between the southern tip of India and Indonesia. The smoke stacks of ships crossing these routes send a large amount of NO2 into the troposphere.
Like GOME, SCIAMACHY works by observing atmosphere-scattered ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared radiation. The hard work comes on the ground, where researchers attempt to retrieve very weak trace gas absorption patterns within the overall spectrum of backscattered light, a feat comparable to finding a needle in a haystack.
The method they use is called Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS), which is basically a complex filtering process also used with ground-based air-sampling instruments. DOAS removes the predominant spectral 'noise' from air particles' Rayleigh scattering of light (the same phenomenon that causes the sky appear blue) along with the absorption patterns from the oxygen, nitrogen and water molecules that make up most of the atmosphere.
Left behind after these subtractions is the desired 'signal' of narrower trace gas spectral absorption patterns, to be identified against sample cross sections. Applied to SCIAMACHY results, this technique is sufficiently sensitive to retrieve columns lower than a few parts of nitrogen dioxide per billion parts of air. To give an idea of scale, above highly polluted conurbations such as London, NO2 mixing ratios can reach values as high as a hundred parts per billion.
Nitrogen dioxide maps like that shown here have been produced using nadir-sounding data: while NO2 vary widely across the troposphere they are evenly spread across the upper atmosphere, the stratosphere. So nitrogen dioxide levels measured above the remotest parts of the Pacific were used to determine a general column for stratospheric nitrogen dioxide, which could be subtracted from the global data to determine tropospheric vertical column values.
"Results from this and other similar sensors could be used for chemical weather and air quality prediction in future," Beirle added. "For now we are focused on using the SCIAMACHY results to quantify the contributions of the different sources of nitrogen oxides - such as fossil fuel combustion, biomass burning, lightning - especially as the value of the latter is still highly uncertain."

Neighborhoods: Ocean City
DONT GO THERE!!!,they don't know anything about mechanic!!!!!! I am from washington dc,I went there and my car was broken,I found them from internet,they took 100$ for 7 miles to tow my car,then they didn't fix my car,they told me you need new engine then engine was 5.000$,my car slept there almost 1 month and a half.they never keep their promises.owner name is Kingston,he promised to me ''I will check your car,then I will call you back''but they never call me back about my car.They didn't do anything for my car but they took my 110$ again for fake checking,They are towing guys,not mechanicer. if you go there,you will have too many problems!!! I sent towing from DC to there,then i paid 700$ for DC towing driver,DC mechanicer fix my car just for 400$ here:) Problem was just starter:) they don't understand about car,after 2 months finally my car running.
DO NOT CALL THEM FOR A TOW – I broke down on the express way and guenther is the only one that service the express way my uncle owns a towing service but i could not call him for a tow gunthers chagred me 280 dollars for 20 milles dont go here
Don't go here – I was in a car accident and the nearest place with towing service was Guenther's. (Police Suggestion) This place is so unprofessional. They smoke in their office that is 5ft from where they work on cars! I left something in my car and needed to go get it so I go over there. I waiting about a minute before they even noticed I was there. This old lady gave me such a hard time. I don't know if it was the color of my skin, my age or she was having a bad day. She says I need a release form, just to get something out of my own car. So I say whatever and go get one from the police station. I asked the lady there and she said I don't need one to get something out of my car and she'll call over there. I go back to Guenther's and the same lady says I need to show her my license and insurance. I told her that the lady at the police station says I don' t need any of that to take something out of my car. The lady says she just wants to make sure that I don't leave my car there. " Are you serious my car is a 2007. I wouldn't leave my car in a junkie place like that." All I wanted was something out of my car and she was making it so difficult. I'm telling you the next step would have been a police escort. Anyway after a few minutes of that someone else jumps in and tells her to just let me into to my car. In her face. They seriously need to work on their customer service. Business Bureau is going to here about this.

CeMoRe Seminar with Thomas Birtchnell
Date: 19 November 2013 Time: 4.15 to 6.00pm
Venue: Bowland North SR22
Aero-Mobile Methods: Doing Social Research with Drones
There is a growing body of work in geography and sociology on the impact of drones on warfare, surveillance and civil rights. This paper assesses the challenges of using drones for social research. Both affordable and expensive drones are now available on the market; however, there has been next to no reflection on how drones might impact upon the social sciences as a research tool. Aerial data capture poses some profound possibilities for doing 'mobile methods'. First, this paper explores the history of drones and how they are currently imagined in the social sciences. Second, aero-mobile methods are proposed as a possible research and teaching avenue for using Un(hu)manned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Third, the resources available for using drones are considered according to the various needs of social scientists.And finally, the challenge of incorporating drones into current methodological frameworks is considered through an experiment with a drone.
There will be a 'free' meal in town following the seminar. If you would like to come along please email firstname.lastname@example.com
Dr Thomas Birtchnell is currently a Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Wollongong, Australia. Before this he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Lancaster University in the UK in a project titled Technologies and Travel funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) led by Professor John Urry.

It's a tasty refreshing twist on a Shirley Temple.
Put a bit of rum in a glass, then fill it up the rest of the way with coconut soda (which you can find with the Mexican food in the grocery store). Add some cherries, cherry juice, and ice cubes.
And it's delicious. But nameless. Anyone have an idea for what this drink could be called?

By Nicole Nowlin
In my previous article, I discussed the state of the manga industry and the various planned, successful, or failed avenues of digital publishing of manga as they can be seen today. The question remains, though, as to whether digital manga is truly the next generation as seen by those who read it. A blog post highlights an interesting story about just that topic, following a moderated panel at the Asia Arts Festival at the University of Kentucky:
I chatted a bit more with the panelists (one a soon-to-graduate senior, the other a freshman) and the topic somehow swerved to the manga industry, its travails, and its push to make a market for more esoteric, alternative manga (which for all intents and purposes mostly means "not BESM-standard").
After hearing this, the freshman subsequently asked "So, like, are they trying to make it cool to read print manga?" at which both I and the graduating senior goggled for a moment before going "what the hell are you on about?"
Apparently, in his high school, it was seen as uncool to read print manga. I didn't find out then why it was particularly considered uncool, although the perpetual-behindness of licensed releases may have been a factor, as well as a certain sense borrowed from underground aesthetics that licensed titles may have "sold out" or were otherwise "too mainstream". It's also interesting to note that the act of "reading manga" itself apparently wasn't considered uncool. Just reading print manga. [1]

Ammar Al-Talibi with humanitarian voice correspondent
This is the story of the Algerian humanitarian convoy that arrived to Gaza Strip last week , after a very long journey full of hardships ,to deliver relief assistance and brake the Israeli siege imposed on the coastal enclave since more than four years.
Before leaving Gaza, after accomplishing their task, Humanitarian voice correspondent In Gaza Nasr Al-Gharabli met with the convoy's director, Dr.Ammar Al-Talibi, and had the following dialogue with him :
The idea came to support the residents of Gaza and to brake the Israeli siege ,in addition to presenting some gifts to the besieged people of Gaza and alleviate their suffering under the oppressive Israeli blockade.
For this purpose, the association of Algerian scholars has addressed the Algerian people, businessmen, and philanthropists urging them to support the Palestinian people , consequently we obtained all these relief material, and we coordinated with the concerned parties to get the entry visas through the Algerian embassy in Egypt and Egypt's government.
The number of the participants is 30 persons from the scholars association and Algerian businessmen , and they were divided into two groups : the first included 17 persons who entered Gaza with part of the relief trucks ,while the other stayed in Al-Arish seaport to upload the rest of the relief material and transport them to Gaza through Al-Ouja crossing.
As we have coordinated with the Egyptian Red Crescent and with The Arab Doctors Union, as well as with the chairman of emergency and relief committees, thanks to Allah we did not face any obstacles that delayed us or prevented us from reaching and entering Gaza Strip to deliver the assistance material we brought with us…the Egyptian government was very cooperative, as well as the free people of Gaza.
The convoys coming to Gaza have the same objective to fulfill the basic needs of Gaza residents. Also the people of Gaza himself specified the items they needed , and the only difference this time is that we brought all the relief materials from Algeria, while other convoys used to bring a small part from their countries and buy the other part from Egypt.
The relief materials varied according to the needs of Gaza residents like clothes , medicines, school material, as we are starting a new scholastic year , in addition to a new issue which is the Algerian hospital that we inaugurated with our Palestinian brothers.
We have coordinated with the government indirectly , and through unofficial channels with representatives of Health Ministry to know their needs of medicines. Also we coordinated with Al-Wi'am association , and the Arab Doctors Union.
In terms of geography words, Gaza residents are too far from Algerian people,but they feel its love in their hearts ,and hope to come to Gaza, as an indication to this , when we announced about our travel to Gaza a girl-child came to me with 20 dinars saying " this is for the children of besieged Gaza " another child brought a golden bracelet saying " this is a gift to a Gazan youth who memorized the Qu'ran and wants to get married, so that he may present is to his wife"
We are delivering cultural, political, and religious lectures to raise the awareness of the Algerian people regarding the Palestinian cause and the Palestinian history, in addition of reminding them of what is happening at the holy Mosque of Al-Aqsa…And all the Algerian people is supporting the Palestinian people ,especially the oppressed and besieged Gaza.
We are exerting efforts with the Arab Parliamentarians under the chairmanship of Algeria, and they intend to organize a new convoy to Gaza soon..And we hope to go with them if it will be possible for us.
We found Gaza building itself through its youth and this is the most important issue, we also met with those youth and good believer caring for the holy Qu'ran…Gaza youth proved their steadfastness and readiness to defend their land ,and I think they are undefeatable…we found Gaza bigger and greater than what we have imagined.

Is America Ready for a Female President—or Just President Hillary?
Pollsters Jeffrey Liszt and Lisa Grove shared that in a recent survey of voters in battleground states, a whopping 72% "believe that it is likely that our next president will be a woman." This information, of course, makes sense only in a political landscape featuring Hillary. It may be that nearly three-quarters of voters are ready (perhaps even eager) to elevate a generic woman to the Big Chair. But, absent Hillary, no way 72% of any group would consider such an outcome likely in the very next election.
Agree with that, tumblr?
Hillary Clinton: Helping Women Isn't Just a 'Nice' Thing to Do
[ed: Hillary Clinton came by Women in the World this morning and rocked the theater with this historical, powerful speech. We've transcribed the full thing below. Sorry if this is a Dashboard monster.]
Thank you so much. What a wonderful occasion for me to be back here, the fourth Women in the World conference I've been privileged to attend, introduced by the founder, creator, and my friend, Tina Brown. When one thinks about this annual conference, it really is intended to—and I believe has— focus attention on the global challenges facing women, from equal rights and education to human slavery, literacy, the power of the media and technology to affect change in women's futures, and so much else. And for that I thank Tina and the great team that she has worked with in order to produce this conference and the effects it has created. It's been such an honor to work with all of you over the years. Though it's hard to see from up here out into the audience, I did see some faces and I know that this is an occasion for so many friends and colleagues to come together and take stock for where we stand and what more needs to be done in advancing the great unfinished business of the 21st century: advancing rights and opportunities for women and girls.
Now this is unfinished around the world, where too many women are still treated at best as second-class citizens, at worst as some kind of subhuman species. Those of you who were there last night saw that remarkable film that interviewed men primarily in Pakistan, talking very honestly about their intention to continue to control the women in their lives and their reach. But the business is still unfinished here in the United States, we have come so far together but there's still work to be done.
Now, I have always believed that women are not victims, we are agents of change, we are drivers of progress, we are makers of peace – all we need is a fighting chance.
And that firm faith in the untapped potential of women at home and around the world has been at the heart of my work my entire life, from college to law school, from Arkansas to the White House to the Senate. And when I became Secretary of State, I was determined to weave this perspective even deeper into the fabric of American foreign policy.
But I knew to do that, I couldn't just preach to the usual choir. We had to reach out. To men. To religious communities. To every partner we could find. We had to make the case to the whole world that creating opportunities for women and girls advances security and prosperity for everyone. So we relied on the empirical research that shows that when women participate in the economy, everyone benefits. When women participate in peace-making and peace-keeping, we are all safer and more secure. And when women participate in politics of their nations they can make a difference.
But as strong a case as we've made, too many otherwise thoughtful people continue to see the fortunes of women and girls as somehow separate from society at large. They nod, they smile and then relegate these issues once again to the sidelines. I have seen it over and over again, I have been kidded about it I have been ribbed, I have been challenged in board rooms and official offices across the world.
But fighting to give women and girls a fighting chance isn't a nice thing to-do. It isn't some luxury that we get to when we have time on our hands to spend doing that . This is a core imperative for every human being and every society. If we do not complete a campaign for women's rights and opportunities the world we want to live in the country we all love and cherish will not be what it should be.
It's no coincidence that so many of the countries that threaten regional and global peace are the very places where women and girls are deprived of dignity and opportunity. Think of the young women from northern Mali to Afghanistan whose schools have been destroyed. Or the girls across Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia who have been condemned to child marriage. Or the refugees of the conflicts from eastern Congo to Syria who endure rape and deprivation as a weapon of war.
It is no coincidence that so many of the countries where the rule of law and democracy are struggling to take root are the same places where women and girls cannot participate as full and equal citizens. Like in Egypt, where women stood on the front lines of the revolution but are now being denied their seats at the table and face a rising tide of sexual violence.
It is no coincidence that so many of the countries making the leap from poverty to prosperity are places now grappling with how to empower women. I think it is one of the unanswered questions of the rest of this century to whether countries, like China and India, can sustain their growth and emerge as true global economic powers. Much of that depends on what happens to women and girls.
Hillary backstage at Women in the World talking to Dr. Mamphela Ramphele, who is a South African presidential hopeful (and possibly for woman president in the country). She said to Hillary, "I want to see you complete the unfinished business." They then went off for a private pow-wow.
Hillary Clinton speaking at Women in the World right now. Watch here.
Hillary Clinton & Tina Brown backstage at the Women in the World summit. The future (!?) Mrs. President takes the stage shortly. You can watch her speak live right here. We'll post the video later this morning.
"Let it be that human rights are women's rights and women's rights are human rights, once and for all."
Hillary Clinton's Greatest Hits
And read Michael Tomasky's current cover story: "The Most Powerful Woman In American History"
This week's Newsweek cover: Hil! She's "the most powerful woman in American history," per our coverline.
Here's the beginning of the cover story, you can read the whole thing on the website if you'd like:
And now, as of this week, Hillary Rodham Clinton becomes something she has not been in two decades: a private citizen. A mind-boggling thought, really, rich in amusingly prosaic implications. Will she drive a car? Is she going to pop up at the Safeway (you're supposed to bring your own bags now, Madame Secretary!) or be found standing in line at the Friendship Heights multiplex? She'll still have Secret Service protection, and she has more than enough money to send other people out on a CVS run. But even so, she is now, for the first time in a very, very long time, just one of us.
The images amuse because, of course, she's not just one of us. She's been the most famous and admired woman in America for 20 years. A December Gallup poll had her as the most admired woman in the world, and No. 2 on the list (Michelle Obama) wasn't remotely close. Not everyone is in on this love-fest, as we well know, by a long shot. But even the seething hatred has, over the years, embroidered her legend—debates about Clinton have somehow always ended up really being about us as a nation, who we are and who we want to be, in such a way that even those who dislike her are implicitly acknowledging that, yes, she is the touchstone.
She's the most important woman in America. More: she is almost certainly the most important woman in all of our political history. Already, even if this retirement proves to be permanent, which few people think it will be. No? Well, who, then? Who has been first lady, senator, secretary of state? No other woman, that's for sure. Not many men have held as many high-profile jobs and performed them as well.
And on top of the jobs themselves—in a way, far harder than the jobs themselves—was having to be that barrier breaker, having to be The Woman; the little daughter of a starchy Republican drapery-peddler who would cash in her Goldwater chips and whom fate would eventually select to embody liberation and insolence and cultural transformation, transformation that millions of Americans embraced but that a different set of millions found ruinous, repulsive; having to carry all that on her shoulders, year after year after year, watching people call her all kinds of names and accuse her of all manner of treachery (up to and including criminal behavior and sympathy with terrorists), all that on top of just the normal run-of-the-mill sexism, and knowing that she had to stay above it all and smile, smile, smile, and never take the bait? An impossible job. Who else has had to do all that?
Hillary Clinton Exits Politics: Her Enduring Legacy, Newsweek
Tina Brown on Hillary's medical scare that left us all with a case of the jitters.
After last week's bloody and violent protests across the Middle East Ayaan Hirsi Ali writes our cover story on her optimism in the wake of religious chaos. "Yes…this is a setback for the Arab Spring," she says. "Yes, it is bloody, dangerous, and chaotic on the streets. But this too shall pass."
