DEL MAR — Less than six months after adopting an ordinance that streamlines the process for adding outdoor eating areas in the downtown area, City Council unanimously approved two applications for sidewalk cafes at the Jan. 20 meeting.
Jimmy O's on 15th Street is proposing a 377-square-foot outdoor cafe that will extend 12 feet from the existing building face. Americana Cafe's outdoor seating area on 15th Street will be enlarged to 537 square feet, with improvements but
no expansion proposed for the sidewalk cafe on Camino del Mar.
"I … am very excited about this, not only for Jimmy O's, but for Del Mar in general," Jimmy O's owner, Keith Nordling, said. "We need this."
The staff recommendation to approve both projects came with a lengthy list of conditions, including a $5,000 upfront fee to cover the potential cost of any increase in law enforcement services that may be required as a result of the cafes. Council members opposed the requirement and ultimately deleted the condition.
Councilman Carl Hilliard said he wasn't sure they should assume the sidewalk cafes are going to be a problem. Nordling was happy with the decision, but said he was willing to pay the fee "and do whatever I need to do to make this happen."
"I would always rather pay $5,000 later than now," Nordling said. "If the sidewalk cafe is causing problems and the police have to come down there a bunch … I will reimburse the city for that extra cost."
Nordling said he didn't anticipate the sidewalk cafe creating problems that would require additional law enforcement, especially since another condition prohibits the sale or consumption of alcohol in the area before 9 a.m. and after 10 p.m.
Rick Ehrenfeld, one of only two residents to address council, said he would prefer that the outdoor cafes not be used at all after 10 p.m., but Nordling said he plans to continue food service until his kitchen closes at midnight.
"That's why we (are building) this sidewalk café," Nordling said. "We're trying to attract diners," not drinkers.
Council members said they would revisit the alcohol ordinance to try to accommodate a request from Randy Gruber, owner of Americana Cafe, to serve alcohol from the time the restaurant opens at 7 a.m. Gruber said some of his customers enjoy an early morning cocktail with brunch. His liquor license allows indoor alcohol service beginning at 6 a.m.
Nordling said he also had no problem with a requirement that prohibits smoking in the sidewalk cafes.
"I love that," Nordling said. He told council members if his customers complain, "I'm just going to blame you all. We'll make more people happy not (allowing) smoking than we make happy by letting them."
Hilliard said the 70-plus conditions were excessive, redundant and potentially a waste of staff time, especially since many are included in the existing ordinance. "Repeating them as special conditions seems to be disingenuous," he said. "It just seems to me to be over the top."
The city attorney said that while some may seem "nonsensical," they are included because they are either state-mandated or general conditions required for any construction project.
Jim Watkins, owner of the building that houses both restaurants, said the goal of the community plan he helped develop more than 30 years ago was to create a pedestrian friendly, walking community. "But not much has been done to enhance that," Watkins said. "I think this will do more to regenerate the life of Del Mar … and energize the whole community as far as the redevelopment."
"I like the project," Councilman Mark Filanc said. "I think it is a move in the right direction."
During a public hearing last summer, before he was elected to council, Don Mosier called the sidewalk cafe ordinance "premature and ill-considered."
"My objection at the time had to do with the lack of ordinances covering public impacts and the low cost recovery for leasing of public spaces," said Mosier, who voted to approve both projects in part because of the economic downturn and "the need to get started on downtown revitalization."
Mosier said he also liked that the applicants must report back to council in six months. "Without this right of review, I would have been reluctant to vote for the projects," he said. Permits are valid for three years.
Based on a council-approved user fee of $2 per square foot, Jimmy O's and Americana will pay annual assessments of $754 and $1,074, respectively. The money will be used for downtown streetscape improvements. Staff said applications from two other restaurants could be presented to council as early as next month.
Del Mar council approves first two sidewalk cafe permits
DEL MAR — Less than six months after adopting an ordinance that streamlines the process for adding outdoor eating areas in the downtown area, City Council unanimously approved two applications for sidewalk cafes at the Jan. 20 meeting.

Introducing Israel
In September 2016 we welcomed the Rev Dr Israel Selvanayagam, to start pastoral ministry (his passion) at Evesham Methodist Church from 1 September 2016.
Israel is a presbyter of the Church of South India, originating from a remote village in the deep south, less than one mile from the shores of the Indian Ocean. As a teenager, he joined ministry as a lay church worker and after four years, he joined the Tamilnadu Theological Seminary, Madurai (a temple town of southern India) for theological education and ministerial training.
He was asked to stay on in the seminary to initiate interfaith dialogue along with assisting a congregation in preparation for ordination. Higher studies followed whilst he continued to serve the seminary with different roles such as Lecturer in the area of Religions, Mission and Interfaith Dialogue, Director of the lay theological education, Convener of the prison ministry and Editor of the Tamil Theological Book Club.
In 1996 Israel became the World Church Tutor at Wesley College, Bristol and Queen's College Birmingham, under the Methodist Church's Programme on World Church in Partnership.
From January 2001 to July 2006 he was the Principal of the United College of the Ascension (Anglican-Methodist), one of the Selly Oak Colleges in Birmingham, then becoming the Interfaith Consultant of the Birmingham District while being a preaching minister in the Elmdon Circuit.
In 2008 he returned to India to become the Principal of the United Theological College, Bangalore, and from 2010 to 2016 he was the Professor of Religions at Gurukul Lutheran Theological College and Research Institute, Chennai.
Israel has maintained and expounded the holistic gospel and integrated spirituality. He has published extensively both in English and Tamil, and composed nearly a hundred songs in Tamil and 50 of them were put into a MP3 CD (uploaded in YouTube).
He and his family have kept in close touch with their extended family in their original village where they established a charity in 1983 called 'Rural Development Movement' with the help of their friends. In 2013 a book of essays in his honour was presented, and the title (Discipleship and Dialogue: New Frontiers in Interfaith Engagement) reflects his position (some copies are available with him).
Israel is married with Leela; their two daughters, Ani and Arul, are maths teachers living and working in Birmingham, and they are blessed with three grandchildren.

inactive like 4 years ago and since I'm just a regular foot soldier I can't
manage the guild and I don't want to live the guild just in case some of the

Thank you,

This photo has always been a favorite of mine. The perspective, the lighting, the mood, the subject matter, all of it. There's something about courthouses that can be very exciting… in a nostalgic sort of way.
A few years ago Missy and I went around the state and photographed different county courthouses. We focused mostly on courthouses built between 1880 and 1910 as that era produced the most interesting buildings. We noticed that the 1920s thru 1950s courthouses tended to be a more sparse design and feeling to them… almost sterile. Definitely boring and uninteresting.
The courthouse shown in the photo is the Benton County courthouse in Vinton, Iowa. It was completed in 1906 and cost $105,000 to build. It is the county's third courthouse. According to history the first courthouse was a log structure and didn't have a floor or roof, so they moved to a log home in inclement weather. Now, that's funny!

First Minister welcomes positive numbers
in his Chinese new year message
in his Chinese new year message
By: Murdoch MacDonald
Exports from Scotland to China were at their highest ever level in 2013, totalling almost £560 million.
Exports from Scotland to China were at their highest ever level in 2013, totalling almost £560 million.
Latest figures from the Global Connections Survey have shown a rise in food and drink exports and in sectors such as chemicals and engineering, contributing to a total increase of 30 per cent from the previous year.
[Click on image above to view video.]
First Minister Alex Salmond announced the new figures in his Chinese new year message heralding the arrival of the year of the horse, noting that 'the strength of the ties' between Scotland and China will allow the solid economic link between the two countries to continue to flourish for decades to come.
Mr Salmond said: "As we say farewell to the year of the snake, and look forward to the year of the horse, a very lucky year coming ahead, I'd like to wish a very happy new year to the people of China and Chinese people everywhere.
"Just three months ago I visited Beijing and Hong Kong. It was my fourth visit to China as First Minister. Once again, I saw the strength of the ties and growing relationship between our two countries.
"During the visit, eight Scottish companies signed agreements with Chinese firms in sectors such as digital technology and oil and gas. Eight is a lucky number in China; 88 has been doubly lucky for Scotland. Our exports to China have increased by 88 per cent in five years. Our Global Connections Survey this week reported a 30 per cent increase between 2011 and 2012 alone. It is clear that China sees Scotland, the land of invention, as an important business partner.
"But our friendship is based on far more than economics. Just two years ago, we welcomed Tian Tian and Yang Guang, our giant pandas, to Edinburgh Zoo, more than a million people have now been to see them.
"We have strong cultural links. A team from Historic Scotland has used technological expertise of Scotland to create a digital record of China's Eastern Qing Tombs.
"During the summer, a spectacular exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland will showcase the achievements of the Ming dynasty. And in the same year that those treasures from China come to Scotland, three of our performing companies, Scottish Ballet, the Chamber Orchestra and the National Theatre of Scotland will go on tours of China and Hong Kong.
"And there are close ties between our educational institutions. Heriot Watt recently signed an agreement to become the fifth Scottish University to establish a Confucius Institute. More than 8,000 people from China now study at our universities and colleges.
"Many schools, as well as universities, are holding special events to mark Chinese new year. Some are hosting traditional art workshops. Others will go to Glasgow's Royal Concert Hall, to see a special concert from a Chinese children's choir. St Ninian's High School in Giffnock, which won a global award last month at the World Confucius Institute Conference in Beijing, is planning a celebration of Chinese dance, music and songs.
"It's a great sign for the future that young people in Scotland are learning about China, and that young people from China are learning about, and studying in, Scotland. It means that we can look forward to many more years of co-operation between our two nations. And it shows that the friendship between Scotland and China will continue to flourish, during this year of the horse, and for decades to come.
"So as First Minister of Scotland, I would like to wish all of you a very happy new year."

Hello seagrassers! Apologies for the belated post :)
A group of us - Cheng Puay (a.k.a Mr. Lim), Jocelyne and myself - were invited to run a workshop as part of a Youth Symposium organised by the Jane Goodall Institute, RGS and Singapore American School entitled 'A Vision for Hope'. The symposium was a one day event held at the Singapore American School on June 6th.
We ran a very condensed workshop on seagrass and the Seagrass-Watch Monitoring method. And we even ran a simulated monitoring session in the school field (with terrestrial grass, which is not as fun of course) and we got rave reviews for our session.
AND We got to meet Dr. Jane! Nuff said...

An elbow hyperextension injury occurs when the elbow is bent back the wrong way. This type of injury will occur more frequently in contact sports such as Football or certain martial arts e.g. Ju-Jitsu. The elbow is forced to bend the wrong way or hyperextend causing damage to the ligaments and structures of the elbow.
What can the athlete do?
- Immediate treatment involves application of cold therapy and compression.
- Rest until symptoms resolve.
- Wear a support or heat retainer.
- Apply strapping to prevent the elbow from hyper extending (bending backwards) whilst healing.
What can a sports injury therapist do?
- Advise on rehabilitation.
- Use ultrasound to help reduce pain and swelling.
- Apply taping to give the elbow support and prevent hyperextension.

Darien Police Department
UPDATE: One month after Steve Wilkos crashed his vehicle, E! News can confirm authorities have charged the TV personality with DUI.
Wilkos, who originally told TMZ the crash occurred while reaching for his glasses, has admitted otherwise. He shared in a statement with E! News, "On January 21, 2018, I was involved in a serious car accident. I would like to take this opportunity to set the record straight and share that I was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident. Over the course of my life, I have been struggling with bouts of depression and on the day of my accident, I had a complete lapse in judgment which resulted in me drinking and getting behind the wheel of my car."
Wilkos registered a .29 percent Blood Alcohol Content, and turned himself in at the Darien Police Headquarters on Wednesday evening. He posted a $1,500 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on March 8.
"I am lucky and so grateful that no one else was involved in the accident and truly humbled by the outpouring of love and support," he continued. "This experience reinforces my commitment to get the professional help that I need and I have recently completed an intensive medically supervised program."
Wilkos concluded, "I have built a career on a commitment to help others with their personal struggles and now I am faced with my own. Opening up my personal life to this level has been extremely difficult for my family and me, and I ask for your support in respecting our privacy so that we can all heal and move forward. I am so sorry to my family for any grief and embarrassment I have caused."
TV personality Steve Wilkos has seen his fair share of scary situations as a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, an ex-bodyguard and a former member of Chicago Police Department, but he may have just survived his closest near-death experience to date. On Sunday, the television host was involved in very serious car crash in Darien, CT., E! News can confirm.
Wilkos' vehicle struck several poles and a tree and then flipped over on its side. He was then transported to the hospital in nearby Stamford, CT., TMZ reports.
The Steve Wilkos Show host gave a statement to E! News on Tuesday, "I feel lucky to be alive after seeing my car. I am so thankful to the first responders from Post 53 and our local police department in Darien, CT, as well as all the wonderful people who took care of me at Stamford hospital."

IRVINE, Calif., March 7, 2017 - The 2017 Soul and Cadenza have received 2017 Best Cars for Families awards from U.S. News & World Report. Vehicles were judged on their safety, seating and cargo volume, reliability and the availability of family-friendly features. U.S. News & World Report selected the Soul from 20 competitors in the Compact Cars category while the Cadenza was chosen from a field of 11 competitor vehicles in the Large Car category.
"We're thrilled to receive these great awards," said Orth Hedrick, vice president, product planning KMA, "because they speak to the effort we put into creating vehicles that families will love. It's part of Kia's global commitment to offer attractive, reliable and dynamic vehicles with tremendous value. Being awarded Best Cars for Families by U.S. News & World Report is testimony to those efforts and we couldn't be more proud."
The Kia Soul was noted for outstanding ergonomics and tech features that make it a great choice for families. "The ride height is neither too low nor too high, making it easy for both little kids and grandparents with limited mobility to get in," said U.S News & World Report Autos managing editor Jamie Page Deaton. "Parents of teen drivers can get some peace of mind with the Soul's UVO1 system, while Apple CarPlay™2 and Android Auto™3 keep families connected with limited distraction on the road. Plus, its styling makes it a real standout in the school pickup lane."
U.S. News & World Report similarly praised the Cadenza. "The same features that make the Kia Cadenza luxurious for adults make it a great choice for families," said Page Deaton. "Rear sunshades keep backseat passengers cool so they can ride or nap in peace. UVO teen-driver controls make it easier to hand the keys over to new drivers, and Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ make it easier to access common smartphone functions without having to learn a new operating system."

Mazda CX-9 was named "Best Large Utility" by MotorWeek, a stalwart in automotive television content, as a part of the 2017 MotorWeek Drivers' Choice Awards.

Mazda CX-9 checks all the boxes. It sets itself apart from most three-row SUVs with KODO-Soul of Motion design and a sophisticated interior to match. In addition to its sleek design, CX-9 delivers in the performance department, with its SKYACTIV-D 2.5T turbocharged engine.

DEARBORN, Mich., Dec. 9, 2016 - The new Lincoln MKZ and Lincoln MKX have been named top safety picks by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in their respective categories:
· Lincoln MKZ, Midsize Luxury Car Winner*
· Lincoln MKX, Midsize Luxury SUV Winner*
IIHS conducts vehicle tests to determine crashworthiness - how well a vehicle protects its occupants in a crash. It also rates vehicles for front-crash prevention, systems that warn the driver or brake automatically to avoid or mitigate a frontal collision. The vehicles that perform best in the tests qualify for Top Safety Pick which has been awarded since the 2006 model year, or Top Safety Pick+, which was inaugurated in 2013.
According to IIHS, to qualify for 2017 Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must earn good ratings in five crashworthiness tests - small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraints - as well as a basic rating for front crash prevention. Also, IIHS says, a vehicle must earn good ratings in the five crashworthiness tests and an advanced or superior rating for front crash prevention.
The new Lincoln MKX further strengthens Lincoln's position in the midsize luxury utility segment, one of the largest luxury segments in the U.S., representing about one-quarter of the retail luxury automotive market.
The new Lincoln MKZ for 2017 combines intuitive technology, effortless performance and distinctive design to deliver an enhanced driving experience Lincoln calls quiet luxury.
The vehicles are available with a suite of intuitive, driver-assist technologies. Their Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection uses camera and radar technology to monitor the vehicle's proximity to other vehicles and pedestrians. If a potential collision is detected, the system can alert the driver with visible and audible warnings and, if needed, pre-charge the brakes and increase brake sensitivity to help provide full responsiveness.
The lane-keeping system uses a forward-facing camera to detect lane markings. It can apply steering wheel torque and alert the driver with a steering wheel vibration should sensors detect drifting.
Both vehicles are equipped with BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with cross-traffic alert uses radar sensors to alert drivers with lights in their sideview mirrors if another vehicle is detected in blind spots. When drivers are backing up, the system can detect a vehicle approaching from either side, notifying drivers with a warning light and an audible tone.
An auto hold feature keeps the car at a complete stop without the driver having to press and hold the brake pedal - making stop-and-go driving more relaxing for Lincoln owners. Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection is an available technology that can help avoid some frontal crashes or lessen the severity of such events.

When Dr. David Cupery surveyed MCLA students last year to find out where they might want to travel over spring break, many of them expressed a great deal of excitement at the thought of visiting Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, and other Peruvian destinations.
That, along with Cupery's familiarity with Peru from his travel there, recently resulted in a trip of a lifetime for 13 MCLA students.
Anika Pommers-Dear '17 got her first passport at 5 months old, but she'd never been to South America, and was eager to add a new continent to her nearly complete world travel list.
"Seeing Machu Picchu and hiking on trails carved by the Incas was a long-time dream. It absolutely lived up to the hype. I was blown away by the simple beauty and incredible precision of Incan architecture," she said.
The best part, according to Pommer-Dear, was her first view of Machu Picchu after a rigorous, up-hill hike from Aguas Calientes that began at 4:15 a.m.
"I'd seen countless pictures and videos of the ancient ruins. Seeing them in person felt like stepping on to the pages of a National Geographic magazine. I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to share feelings of awe and exhaustion with, against the backdrop of the Andes," Pommers-Dear said.
Of Machu Picchu, Edith Sherburne '18 of Saugerties, N.Y., added: "I arrived there at 6:30 a.m. with two of my very best friends, and the clouds and fog were literally rolling off of the mountains around me. Then, what seemed to be all at once, the ruins appeared below me, and I was breathless."
Michael McAndrew '18 of Holyoke, Mass., particularly enjoyed visiting Lima, Peru: "I have never lived in a very big city, so it was interesting to finally be in one. Lima is particularly interesting because it is a fast-growing city with a lot of energy."
A highlight for Nicolas Colon '17 of the Bronx/Harlem, N.Y., was the opportunity to see some native dance performances.
"They wore clothing of all their ancestors, as well as all the different variations of their people in different parts of Peru. Each song and dance had a different meaning and rhythm. Each was moving to watch," he said.
The trip also featured a two-day, one-night trip to the islands of Lake Titicaca – home to indigenous people with unique cultural characteristics, who have experienced minimal change in the face of global technological and cultural revolutions, Cupery explained.
To learn about their way of life, students visited three different islands and spent the night and ate three meals with a host family.
"Travel courses are great for educational development that builds an understanding of foreign cultures and contexts and empathy for different ways of living, challenges and opportunities," Cupery said.
"The combination of classroom sessions and travel allow students to enter the country with foundational knowledge of the places they will visit, while the face-to-face experiences with the subject matter help the material come alive."

For partners that provide implementation or managed services around Oracle Cloud Applications
We have a business process where requesters reassign requisitions to preparers that are responsible for adding the accounting information to the requisition prior to submitting for approval. If the preparer is on vacation, is there a way to have the reassigned requisition to an alternate preparer. This would be similar to the vacation delegation functionality in approval workflow.
Hi Judy
I take it you are aware of the Update Preparer and Requester feature that we support currently. But reading the analogy you describe, it sounds as though you want this to be 'temporary' and somehow revert to the original preparer once he/she is back from vacation. The latter part is not supported but most customers seem fine with doing this manually. Did I read your requirements correctly?
Thanks, Ashok. I am referring to a temporary fix that would revert back, similar to the vacation delegation in workflow/BPM.
Regarding the Update Preparer and Requester feature: We do not currently use this functionality as we don't generally let our end users schedule processes in the system. In order to use this, it appears that it can only be scheduled by the person that needs to be replaced (e.g. the person that is going on vacation). Is that correct? I can see where this would mimic the vacation delegation, it is just a bit more complicated for our end users.
Hi Judy
No, there is no such limitation that only the user that is going on vacation must be the one to perform this. I can get you some more details tomorrow.
Ashok, I have attached a screen shot of the job parameters. Please note that there isn't an option to change the "Person to be replaced". It defaults to me as the user and cannot be changed. Perhaps there is a configuration or security role that we don't have set up correctly?
Thanks for your help,
Here is the detail you probably need to experience intended behavior. Could you assign the privilege needed and see if it works to your requirement?
If the user does not have the Reassign Requisition privilege, the Person to be Replaced field will be a read-only text field and it will default to the name of the signed-in user.
Thank you Ashok! I will check on that privilege and let you know if it fixes my issue.
Ashok, Adding the privilege allowed me to edit the Person to be Replaced. Thank you.
Now my question is - does this process update the Preparer on ALL requisitions or just new ones as of the date of the scheduled process? If it is ALL, then they will lose association with requisitions that are in process while they are on vacation.
For example, the preparer has 10 requisitions that are currently in workflow and 5 that have been approved and POs have been created. If I run this process, will the preparer be replaced for all of these requisitions? This is not what we would want to happen in this specific situation.
Hi Judy
This is how the feature works:
Reassign procurement transactions if an individual leaves your company, changes business units, changes job roles, or is on a leave of absence. Reassigning procurement transactions ensures that transaction flow is maintained.
Use the Update Preparer and Requester page to perform reassignments. You can update the Entered by person for the requisition, the requester attributes on requisitions, and requester attributes on purchase orders.
From the Update Preparer and Requester page, you can:
Replace a preparer if the requisition contains at least one line that is pending approval.
Replace a requester if the following conditions are met:
Requisition line is pending approval.
Approved requisition line that is not associated with a purchase or transfer order.
Approved requisition line that is associated with a Purchase Order line schedule with status not finally closed, or canceled.
Purchase Order Distribution line with schedule status not finally closed, or canceled.
Purchase Order Distribution line that is a part of a change order with status not canceled or processed.
Replace a change initiator on Purchase Orders with status not canceled or processed, and that were initiated by a preparer.
To automatically restart approvals when requisitions with status Pending approval are updated, set Restart Approval After Submission to Yes on the Update Preparer and Requester page.
Thank you Ashok. This is very helpful. I appreciate your timely responses to the questions posed on this forum.
Happy to help!
I was able to test the job this morning and it did work exactly how you indicated. However, it does not pick up any requisitions that have been reassigned but not yet submitted into workflow. So that is the missing piece for us with our current business process.
That means the requisitions are not yet in a Pending Approval state? I understand and as described earlier, that is expected behavior.
Hi Ashok,
I am looking for some documentation with respect to Procurement on how the Functionality should work for following
- Reassigning of Approver
- Skip Current Assignment
Above two tasks are used when there is no vacation rules are set and Admin tries to reassign and ending into issues
i am looking for a documentation in General how these two functionalities should work
Average Rating: 2 ratings
I found 2 links (not specific to Procurement). As these are BPM constructs, they apply just as-is is my understanding.
Thank you for looking into this. Since we are looking for something that would re-assign prior to the requisition being initiated into workflow, it appears that this functionality doesn't exist. Everything appears to be only for requisitions that are currently in workflow.

As we all know by now Jack White either doesn't sleep or exists in a world where days last longer than 24 hours. The guy doesn't seem to stop. He's now decided to get his wife involved in this seemingly endless stream of writing, recording and releasing records. Not that his wife, the former model Karen Elson, lacks musical pedigree having recorded a duet with Cat Power along with a clutch of other lovely acoustic ditties ('Coming Down' is particularly nice).
Below is a live reading of the title track from her Jack White produced debut album, The Ghost Who Walks. The album is due out in the summer via XL/Third Man and the video is also directed by her hubbie (I believe he sewed the hem on her dress, but we're awaiting clarification on that).
It's a shame the guys in the band couldn't be bothered to help out a bit. Lazy.
You can download this version of the track from here.

Exodus 40 2xCD
More Information
Bob Marley – Exodus 40 2xCD
Bob Marley & the Wailers' classic Exodus album, the ninth studio album of the band, was released on June 3, 1977, featuring a new backing band including brothers Carlton and Aston "Family Man" Barrett on drums and bass, Tyrone Downie on keyboards, Alvin "Seeco" Patterson on percussion, and the I Threes, Judy Mowatt, Marcia Griffiths and Rita Marley on backing vocals, and newest member Julian "Junior Marvin" on guitar. The album was released on June 3, 1977, just six months after an assassination attempt was made on Bob Marley's life in Jamaica in December, forcing him to flee to London, where Exodus was recorded.
This June marks the 40th anniversary of Exodus – named the "Best Album of the 20th Century" by Time magazine in 1999 – with a series of four separate reissues, three of which will feature Exodus 40 – The Movement Continues, son Ziggy Marley's newly curated "restatement" of the original album.
As part of the celebration, Ziggy Marley has intimately revisited the original session recordings, uncovering unused and never-before-heard vocals, lyric phrasing and instrumentation, incorporating and transforming these various elements into brand-new session takes.
The 2 CD softpack edition contains the original album and the Ziggy Marley "restatement."

Lauren Conrad has not been in the news lately.
This can only mean her plan is working. Not to vanish from the radar, of course. After storming the zeitgeist in 2004 on MTV's Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and then its spinoff series, The Hills, the 26-year-old has worked too hard to make a name for herself to let that name get snuffed out by the forces of obscurity and cultural amnesia.
But if the goal of most reality stars is to become famous, the reality is most never will, at least not in the long term. The smart ones figure this out while there is still time to leverage their fleeting popularity. The really smart ones realize popular culture is an artificial ecosystem dominated by unpredictable whims and trends, a place where celebrity is a renewable resource.
And loitering in the spotlight, long after it has dimmed, can be blinding, misleading and potentially harmful.
"I think that just simply loving fame can be very dangerous, especially when you are dealing with being a TV personality as opposed to an actor who can continue on to many different projects," says Conrad, on the phone to talk about her new novel.
"I think the end is inevitable and it's very difficult for some people to let go. The idea of being adored by people you've never met — if you really love that, it's really hard when it begins to fade."
This is the downside of the celebrity-industrial complex, where an endless line of wide-eyed dreamers are fed into the grinding gears each year and spit out on the other side. This is also a theme of Conrad's The Fame Game, which was released this week by HarperCollins as the first part of a new trilogy. (Her debut series of books for young adults, L.A. Candy, replaced the "reality star" top-line on her resume with "New York Times best-selling author.")
"I have always enjoyed writing," she says. "It was always something I wanted to pursue when I had time."
When she walked away from The Hills in 2009, there was suddenly time for writing and her other passion, fashion design. The five years Conrad spent on MTV, starting when she was just 18, also gave her ample source material for these fictional tales about young people playing the fame game in Los Angeles.
"This was a life I lived for years and years," she says. "It was fun to be able to give people a sneak peek of that life without necessarily telling other people's stories."
The protagonist in her new book is a character named Madison Parker, the "mean girl" from the L.A. Candy series. Given the autobiographical nature of the previous trilogy — "the stories are definitely inspired by things that have happened in my life" — one wonders if Madison is a thinly-veiled caricature of Heidi Montag, another Laguna Beach alumna and Conrad's best friend until a nasty public feud tore that relationship asunder.
"No, she is not," says Conrad, flatly. "Madison represents a large group of people."
The Fame Game, like the best reality shows, is intended to be entertaining first and foremost. But amid the jaunty passages and pop-cultural references, there are often throwaway lines that come across as wise and cynical about life in the fast lane — or at least, life in the on-ramp to the fast lane.
Was Conrad trying to impart a message about the reality of reality television? Was she making observations about the possible infamy of fame in a culture where just about everything is disposable, including celebrity status?
"I think there are two main messages," she says. "One was that when it comes to working in the entertainment industry, there is definitely more than meets the eye. I think this is an industry that has been glamorized for so long. But there's a lot more to it.
"I also wanted to let people know that while there are some really lovely perks to being on television, there is definitely some challenges that come along with it, too."
The biggest challenge comes from knowing when to exit.
"I don't think it's healthy for any person to be under the level of criticism that you are when you are on television or in the public eye," says Conrad. "I think that people who cope with it best are those who just avoid it."
So what has fame taught Lauren Conrad about Lauren Conrad?
"That's a good question," she says, going silent for several seconds. "I think the experience overall has taught me about the importance of a bigger picture. I think it's very easy to get caught up in day-to-day gossip and things around you and get upset by them. But very quickly, you're yesterday's news. I used to really stress about those types of things and I've learned to let it go."

Free Robot Shooting Action Game - Hoverbot Arena 2
Get ready for a futuristic shoot-em-up action adventure! Hoverbot Arena 2 is a challenging online shooting game where you control a hi-tech Hoverbot (a floating robot armed to the teeth), and have to eliminate a bunch of other robotic enemies of different shapes. Take on various challenges where you have to survive for as long as possible – or simply blast everything in sight! Each level takes place in a large enclosed arena, – there's nowhere to run – so you've got to fight fire with fire! Blast through your enemies as they close in around you, and collect the scrap metal that they leave behind.
Keep upgrading your Hoverbot to transform it from a modest shooter into an awesome space-age firing machine! Your quick reactions are the key to success here, as you have to dodge and weave your way around the arena, avoiding impact with enemy robots. Watch out for missiles being fired by the cheeky little androids, too. You'll also need a keen eye, as you have to be extremely accurate with your shots. Ok Robot Renegade, it's time to lock and load! Good luck.
How to Play: Use both your computer mouse and keyboard to control your Hoverbot. Your Hoverbot moves fluidly around the game arena, and can quickly move in any direction. To control its movements, use the Arrow Keys or the WASD Keys, and use your mouse to activate your weapons. Your aiming target follows the movement of your cursor. Left Click once to fire a normal missile, twice to drop a bomb. While a missile destroys the enemy that it hits, a bomb destroys all of the bad guys in the arena at that time. You only have a limited number of bombs, so use them wisely.
Your objective changes depending on what level you are playing. In some levels, you have to eliminate a set number of enemies. The target number is displayed in the top left corner of the game screen. In survival levels, you simply have to avoid losing all your lives for a set amount of time. You lose a life if you impact off another robot, or get hit with one of their missiles. You can see how many lives you have remaining in the bottom left corner. At the end of each level, use the Scrap Metal collected from blasted enemies to upgrade your Hoverbot.
If this Flash-based game no longer works on IE11 on your PC / MAC, try playing on Chrome or Firefox browser.

Music of Human Origin
Even with the existence of the MOBO awards, there are fewer boundaries in popular music here in the UK than there were in the Seventies when I was growing up. Back then you couldn't listen to Disco and Rock; it simply wasn't allowed. One TV music quiz had a category called "black music", which was a mystery to me - I thought it was something satanic. (At least they were honest, though. "Music of Black Origin" just opens the doors to whiteys like Joss Stone whose music is - to my ears - less "black" than, say, Beefheart's, while also managing to hint that unqualifying people of colour like Kele Okereke are race traitors for playing Indie Rock. Nice one.) Still, I am happy to be living through times when these arbitrary distinctions are being purposefully and humorously dismantled, even if the White Boy Rocker in me complains that the Scissor Sisters sail too close to the wind.
Outside the bedrooms of mashup DJs, few are doing more in this regard than Easy Star All-Stars. Their Dub Side of the Moon altered the Pink Floyd standard forever - it wasn't so much a Reggae homage, as a memory refit for those who heard it: the Floyd are Rastas. The Floyd always have been Rastas. I love Big Brother.
What struck me most forcibly about Dub Side… was the All-Stars' obvious love for their source material, which shines vividly through every skanked-up detail. Here were highly accomplished Reggae singers and players, not to mention a producer, who clearly adored one of history's supposedly "whitest" groups.
While Radiodread - a walk through OK Computer - reveals a similar affection for the Floyd's closest living equivalent, the experience is rather different. In retrospect, the melancholy and mellow minors of Dark Side of the Moon were made for the ganja treatment, while Thom Yorke's angst and Radiohead's rhythmic and harmonic awkwardness don't succumb quite so easily.
Take the swooping ebow motif which opens 'Airbag': its devil intervals and false relations sit irreconcilably against the uptempo Reggae shuffle and Horace Andy's sweet vocal stylings, and fragile songs like 'Exit Music' don't quite survive the transplant surgery. At other times you can palpably hear them grappling with the instrumentation, as on 'Lucky', where it takes a voice, a slide guitar and a trombone to replace Ed O'Brien's stratospheric guitar on the chorus.
Elsewhere the project is more successful: translating 'Fitter Happier' into a Deakus-like patois mumble ("Respec' Jah creatures!") is a creative swipe akin to Dub Side's D'n'B treatment of 'On The Run'; replacing Thom's desperate falsetto with a female voice, as on Tamar-kali's intense 'Climbing Up The Walls', ought to have happened more often; and my heart quickens whenever the Easy Star horn section bursts in on the scene.
But the best idea on the whole LP was to turn 'Paranoid Android' into a Special AKA number. Dammers and co. had a grasp on the darkside rarely heard at the popular end of MOJO (the 'J' is for Jamaican), and this pastiche follows the idea through to its logical conclusion, clipped time signatures and all.
So I salute the All-Stars in shirking easy targets in their evil plan to Dub every Uncut reader's favourite albums out of existence - I think even I could make a Reggae version of What's The Story (Morning Glory) - even if this time the result is "just" an album of great covers, rather than We Can Remember It For You Wholesale. Easy Star peeps, you have my complete support. If you're looking for suggestions - why not do Spiderland next?

SolarWorld is recalling approximately 1.3 million solar panel systems in the U.S. and 210,000 in Canada because of a possible electric shock, electrocution or fire hazard. The company said Thursday that panels installed with bare-copper grounding lugs can corrode, possibly resulting in a faulty ground circuit. The lugs are brown in color. SolarWorld said it has received one report of corrosion related to the bare copper lugs. No injuries have been reported.
The systems were sold from June 2011 to June 2014 and priced between about $1,000 and $10,000. The installation instructions for SolarWorld systems sold after June 1, 2010 called for GBL-4DB lugs for grounding. The instructions have been revised to require tin-coated lugs, Ilsco part number GBL-4DBT. "T" is for tin-coated and indicated by the lug's silver color. Consumers who can identify the improper lugs should contact SolarWorld for replacement. Those who can't identify them should contact SolarWorld to have an authorized agent inspect them and replace the lugs. Consumers can call SolarWorld toll-free at (877) 360-1787, 9 a.m.-6 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or click on the "Product Safety" at www.solarworld-usa.com.

No Christmas can ever be as good as the ones you had as a kid. But this week we go all in and bring the joy, the spontaneity, the sense that anything can happen back to Christmas. We've got a live Christmas performance from some of the best improvisors in the country including Mike Birbiglia, Chris Gethard, and SNL's Aidy Bryant and Sasheer Zamata. Also holiday meals – on fire.
Christmas On A High Wire

Fair Trade is the idea that when we engage in free trade, we do it in such a way that the person behind the product is empowered rather than exploited. Fair trade began in Europe more than 40 years ago and was built originally more as a charitable model rather than a profit-making endeavour. The basic principles of fair trade include paying a fair wage in the local context, ensuring safe working conditions, building long-term business relationships, providing market feedback and business development support and ultimately, maintaining transparent business practices. The idea of Fair Trade was first introduced to the United States through the commodities market with fair trade certified foods like coffee, sugar, rice and bananas.
In other categories such as handcrafts, furniture or textiles, there is currently no product-level certification available. The main reason it becomes more challenging to track individual handcrafts (as opposed to a pound of coffee) is because the majority of fair trade handcrafts - things like scarves, jewellery and small gifts - are made in the informal economy, the part of the economy that has no governmental oversight to prevent exploitation. For example, in the United States, when a neighbourhood teenager is paid to mow the lawn, they don't really have any power if they aren't treated fairly. In the rest of the world, the informal economy tends to be a much larger portion of the total GDP within a country, and globally, women make up 60-80 percent of this informal economy. Not only does fair trade provide employment for these women, but these same women tend to invest their increased earnings in their children's education and nutrition. Studies have shown that as income increases, there are many quantifiable positive social impacts such as decreased infant mortality, longer life expectancy and lower health care costs. This is ultimately why creating improvements in this sector can have tremendous overall impacts on the poorest segments of a developing country.
So how does this complex global trade issue become transformed into a profitable business?
(1) working with artisan closely to know their needs and educating them to understand the Fair Trade business.
(2) preparing them for fair trade business.
(3) marketing their products to the organisations with similar objectives.
(4) transparency to your clients and showing them what you say is true.
(5) invest profit in welfare of artisan and community.
Fair Trade has different definitions and understandings but the common objective is that the grass root artisans or growers must get the right wages to support their families well & maintaining the acceptable working conditions. Now the question arise what are the right wages and acceptable working conditions and these are the most controversial subjects. For this the consumer will have to understand the cultural, religious & social aspects of the different countries & also the % of work being done by an artisan for fair trade buyer. Sustainability is the key factor in Fair Trading and Buyer as well as Supplier Organization should be responsible for it because if there is no regular work for an artisan, he will work at any cost because he has to run his family. We can talk and talk on this issue for months or years but the key to Fair Trade is Sustainability or Regular work.

Ford Fiesta is still UK's top best seller
The Ford Fiesta still remains the UK's best seller taking first place in the month of June.
The Ford Fiesta still remains the UK's best seller taking first place in the month of June. The Ford Fiesta is great to drive with precise steering and a supple well judged ride. The new all electric power steering is perfectly weighted and precise. The car is smart, drives well and is offered with a range of economical engines. The three door model looks sportier but the five door is more practical.The interior of the Ford Fiesta has a nice combination of textures and materials. More recently the Ford Fiesta is the first car in its segment to achieve top crash test ratings in each of the world's largest auto markets that perform safety testing; Europe, the U.S. and China. The use of advanced new steels to the bodywork structure gives Ford Fiesta owners the protection of a robust safety cell, combined with excellent fuel economy from a lightweight body. This light weight helps to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions across the Ford Fiesta range, including for the exceptionally frugal ECOnetic model, which achieves combined fuel economy of 76.3mpg* and 98g CO2/ km emissions for road tax-exempt motoring.

I love facebook.
I'll admit it.
For a stay-at-home-mom, it's just such a great way to connect with the outside world! I know that it's not perfect, but there have been many a time where I have had a quick banter with some friends on there and it's gotten me through the insanity. But I tend to be the person who is vary wary of sharing links or anything like that (ironically enough I am always thrilled when someone shares one of MY post links!) but there was one link to an article recently that… well, it was a bit of a game changer for me.
You really, really, really… REALLY need to read it.
Entrepreneur Magazine: Forget Setting Goals. Focus on This Instead.
Now… why would this article have annnnnnything to do with Jesus and dieting. It's about business, no?
You need it because… because it's resolution time. It's the beginning of the year, and even if you didn't tell anyone your resolution or you decided not to make one {like my teacher James Tippit says: "I blew last year's resolution out of the water. I resolved not to make any resolutions. And I succeeded brilliantly."}… but secretly, you probably can't help but to at least have hopes for the new year.
Like I mentioned yesterday on Day 728: I Have Learned The Secret, I realized that the one thing that I wanted to change was meeting with Jesus every single day… because I spent 2013 without doing that and honestly, I was pretty miserable emotionally and spiritually.
But here's the thing… I wanted to spend time with him all throughout 2013.
I would make resolve upon resolve to wake up early and read my bible. And then I would sleep in morning after morning.
You see, in 2012… which I shall henceforth call "The Year Of Awesome", both of my kids were pretty well sleeping through the night and staying in their beds until 7am. So, it was easy for me to go to bed at 10pm and wake up at 5:30 to shower and then read my bible and pray for an hour.
But then in 2013 "The Year of Blah" my toddler began waking up multiple times a night (he had a bad case of restless leg syndrome) and once he got past that he started waking up at 5:30 and despite a mixture of threats and bribes… nothing was going to keep him in bed longer. And I certainly wasn't going to bed at the same time every night and I was sleeping in as long as I could until he woke up. But then after I borrowed this from a friend and then bought this and my whole life got better and he was staying in his bed until 6:30… guess what I still didn't do?
I still didn't get up and meet with God.
So when I had my recent epiphany that Jesus was the thing making me content in The Year of Awesome, I realized that I needed to start getting up. And then I read that article and realized, to make this succeed I needed…
a system.
And that is just what I have instituted in my life. A system to help me arrive on-time, eager, and alert to my meetings with God every morning. Now, you can check out now if you like because maybe you get it… maybe you already see where you need a system, and honestly… be my guest! Go for it, write that system down, start it tomorrow. It's really awesome how well it works! But, just for kicks, here is my system for meeting with God. (And I love schedules… it's the teacher in me I think… so that's why it's all time oriented.)
The night before:
9:25 – prep my "meeting place", set out my devotional, hot tea stuff, and electric throw blanket
9:30 – brush teeth, wash face, change into PJs and all that pre-bed stuff
9:45 – get in bed, read a book, more bible whatever… no tech.
10:00 – lights out
The morning of:
5:30 – get up, shower, do my hair, and get dressed
6:00 – walk to my prepared meeting place and… read, pray, and meditate on Him
6:30 – greet my little boys with a smile and a contented heart
I just have to say… my outlook over the past two weeks of doing this has been awe.some. It's like everything has changed. Everything. And it's just because I am beginning my day (nothing fancy people, just reading Jesus Calling and the corresponding verses) by renewing my mind. But I am able to do that BECAUSE I set up a system to make it happen.
Anyway, this is so not very touchy-feely but I feel like it can really make a big difference in your life if you have trouble with goals or resolutions or follow-through… which is basically my entire life story.
Give it a go! Let me know how it works or how you use a system! I would genuinely love to hear it because I'd love to steal your idea and use it myself!!! Ha!

From GMOD
I'm going to work intermittently on a draft for reorganizing the Gbrowse documentation. My plan is to build it in my user namespace and show it to Dave to see if he wants to use it to replace the main docs. Since this is a wiki, others are welcome to modify what I'm doing. --JimHu 19:51, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

First, you need to be one with the cards by understanding the cards. Each card has its own strengths and weaknesses. A card with high intelligence, but with low charisma and courage may be defeated by a card with a very low intelligence but high courage. Sort of like a battle between brains and brawn. Knowing the card values of courage, charisma, and intelligence will give you the upper hand in this game. I have saved you a work load and arranged each card in the game for you from what I like to think is strongest to weakest, but remember the card is only as weak as its player.
The cards are arranged in four categories: Strong, moderately strong, moderately weak, and weak. This of course, is my opinion. The strong cards have fairly high attributes in all categories, while the weak cards can be defeated by a mere flutter of a Batterfly's wing. To help explain some of the guide, the value in the parenthesis are the Courage, Charisma, and Intelligence values that are listed on the cards themselves. It is not essential to memorize each card value because there are a lot of cards, unless you want to memorize them, then more power to you, but instead know which cards you have in your hand and what cards Zenco can potentially have in his hand. Once the game starts, all your cards will be shown to you. If you have a certain card, Zenco does not have that. Once the game starts, keep track of which cards you have taken away from Zenco and which cards Zenco has taken from you. Unfortunately, in order to maximize your score, Zenco does need to win a few rounds. Now, don't let his ego get to you because he tends to play a little mercilessly at times.
Like I said, strong cards have a fairly large courage, charisma, and intelligence. Those cards would be: Captain Tuan (13,9,121), Ylana Skyfire (15,13,141), Jacques (11,10,129), Fyora (9,15,107), Illusen (12,12,118), Cylara, (13,10,103) and Judge Hog (16,11,115). Ylana will blast away your opponent with her blaster, while the Faerie Queen will leave your opponent begging you for mercy. She may even decide to use her Rod of Supernova if things get a little bit too hectic. If you happen to have any of these cards in your hand, try to not lose them because they can be the key to your victory. Unless of course, you are quite confident you can get them back easily.
Then, there are the moderately strong cards. You can afford to lose these cards because they can be recaptures using one of your strong cards. What makes these cards not as strong is that they have two strong attributes and one fairly weak characteristic. The moderately strong cards are: Zafara Princess (4,11,101), Commander Gormos (13,30,120), Captain Scarblade (14,2,137), Garin (8,12,117), Kauvara (10,7,115), Rufus (12,15,5), Sophia the Swamp Witch (9,7,152), Techo Master (15,5,140), Bruno (6,11,143), Hannah (6,9,108), Jhudora (7,13,125), King Kelpbeard (12,6,132), Magnus (12,11,40), Tor (15,5,124), Torshac (10,6,112), and Ixi Rider (12,9,80). Be careful, though, because moderately strong cards can overpower your strong cards. For example, the Techo Master can teach Judge Hog a thing or two with his vast Intelligence. Even Jhudora, hiding away on her cloud of mischief, is overpowered by Fyora's Courage and Charisma.
The next category is your moderately weak cards. These cards have two low characteristics and one high characteristic, sometimes even too high for the game, such as Roothless, the most intelligent card in the game. Although he is highly intelligent, do not fear because his courage is that of a cowardly lion and his charisma, well, let's just say he is no competition for your run of the mill parrot. Those cards are Dr. Sloth (3,5,141) Bruno Transformed (16,2,23), Torakar (13,2,60), King Skarl (7,12,97), Brucey B (10,4,82), Cybunny Collector (8,12,70), Isca (7,9,100), Lisha (3,3,120), Magax (12,5,99), Meerca Brothers (4,9,93), Roothless (2,1,162) and Vira (2,13,101).
The final category are the weak cards. These cards just have low attributes altogether. Those cards are: Gorix (2,3,73), Prince (1,9,50), Mynci Guide (8,7,93), Eliv Thade (9,1,76) and Werther (8,8,88). Although they are weak, careless players can lose a strong card with one of these; nah, who am I kidding, these cards can't even beat themselves!
The key to this game is not to beat Zenco to the ground as fast as you can. Instead, you should focus on trying to make the duel last as long as you can. This way you can build up points and be on your way on earning a trophy. What you need to do is let him win a few games in a row, build his confidence. Then, start defeating him without mercy, make him sweat, make him cry for forgiveness. Then after you get your hand almost full with cards, let him win a few rounds. Keep in mind, you do not want to have less than three strong cards in your hand. If you happen to have three weak cards in your hand by the fifth card you have given to Zenco, it may be easier to submit your score and try again. The reason for this is because the more cards you win in a row, the higher your points are. Then keep repeating. It may seem evil to play with his emotions like this, but if the tables were turned, would he be as nice as you? Last but not least, do not forget your secret weapon: Nightsteed (14,14,140). He may come in handy when you are about to lose your final card. Now this is only a guide; take good notes now because the next time you are on Zenco's table dueling for your life, this guide might not be around.
"Yep. And they look as mad as ever!"

Los Angeles is one of the most visited cities in the world. L.A. County set a new record in 2016 with approximately 47.3 million visitors. Myself and other international travelers made up an impressive 28% of the total tourism.
There truly is something for everyone in L.A., whether you like to soak up the sun or stay out late.
L.A. During the Day
Hillsides, palm tree lined streets, glimpses of A-listers at trendsetting eateries – soak in the Los Angeles scenery. There's something a little electric about being in the city that created the movie industry. It's familiar and foreign all at once.
Join the Hustle and Bustle of Hollywood
You can't visit Los Angeles without touring around Hollywood. It's basically the epicenter of the entertainment world, which means there's plenty to see and do. West Hollywood, also known as WeHo, is right next door and has a fantastic design district full of designer stores, art galleries, and architectural gems.
If you're looking for things to do in Hollywood, check out the list below.
- · Take a stroll down the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
- · Stop by the Chinese Theatre or Dolby Theatre to see the red carpet of a premier.
- · Enjoy poolside champagne at the private saltwater pool of the Petit Ermitage.
- · Stroll through the dramatic lobby of the Hotel Roosevelt, the favored place to stay back in Hollywood's Golden Age.
- · Push your senses to the brink with a breakfast, brunch or lunch at Alma at the Standard.
(Window) Shopping in Beverly Hills
One of the most famous shopping districts in the world is Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. The fashion district is just three blocks long, but it's packed with one designer store after another. In addition to getting a firsthand look at the latest looks off the runways, there's a good chance you'll see a celebrity getting the star treatment on Rodeo Drive.
Even if you don't have thousands to spend walking down the gorgeous strip of shops is a must for any fashion forward visitor. For more affordable fare take a trip to Hollywood & Highland or the West Hollywood Design District.
Up Close Look at the Hollywood Sign and Outer Space
The Griffith Observatory is one of the top tourist attractions in the L.A. area. It's located on Mount Hollywood right beside the iconic Hollywood sign. Once you're done checking out pieces of outer space, taking panoramic pictures and playing with cool science tools you can hit one of the hiking trails to get an even better photo op of the Hollywood sign.
Pool Party
There are a number of fabulous hotel pools that host epic parties. The best ones are located up high on rooftops, giving you a commanding view of the Los Angeles landscape.
Universal Studios Hollywood
Who wouldn't want to step into the worlds of some of their favorite movies? Wizarding World of Harry Potter alone is worth the trip. This film studio/theme park could easily take up an entire day to explore.
Seeing the L.A. Sights at Night
Traveling the West Coast provides spectacular sights during the day and all the entertainment you can handle at night. Los Angeles is just as active at night as it is during the day. There's something to do every night of the week, especially in Hollywood and West Hollywood, two of the liveliest areas in all of L.A.
Here's a quick list of some of the hottest spots to hit after sundown while you're visiting L.A.
- · Visit The London West Hollywood after 5 pm when the rooftop pool opens up to the public for a memorable party under the stars.
- · Watch the LA Philharmonic perform at the spectacular Hollywood Bowl.
- · Catch an amazing comedy show with up-and-coming comedians at the Laugh Factory or The Comedy Store.
- · Take a history tour down Hollywood Boulevard.
- · Take on the Sunset Strip. It's one of L.A.'s most infamous areas with landmarks like the Viper Room.
- · Spot celebrities while sipping drinks at Skybar.
- · Hit Pearl's Rooftop for a backyard feel in the middle of West Hollywood.
- · Get authentic, farm-to-table California cuisine at Andaz West Hollywood.
There's no way to see it all in a city that's continuously on the move. But if you're lucky enough to visit L.A. make sure to hit up at least a few of the attractions each day and night.

My concrete patio is 6" lower than the rear of my yard. I would like to:
1) Install one of the manufactured wood substitute product (eg.Trex). I want to raise the surface of my new deck to eliminate part of the level difference. How can I do this? I am thinking of fastening planks (artificial wood to the concrete and useing this as the base to fasten the new patio planking. Is this a feasible approach?
2) Overlay the exisitin concrete deck with new concrete, raising the level two inches. How can I get a mechanical bond between the old concrete and the new?

Job is a person lifted out of ancient history in dramatic fashion, addressing the most basic questions of life: Is God good and just? What does it mean to possess a secure relationship with God? How can security be obtained? The suffering of Job provides the impetus for a theological debate. Job's friends believe his sins caused his troubles. Job refuses to submit to their hypocritical diatribes. He prefers an audience with God. He presumes to indict God's testimony of justice in the world.
After his friends exhaust their efforts, a young man confronts Job's magisterial presentation. He challenges Job's declarations concerning God's person and work. He prepares him to meet with true majesty. The Lord continues to challenge from a whirlwind. His first speech reinforces His power of justice, His ability to sustain life, and His design through creation, revealing the character of a God who oversees life with good intentions.
The second speech addresses God's ability to judge and destroy the personality of evil. The center of this speech reveals a Messianic expression of hope. The way in which God introduces this testimony reinforces the understanding this Coming One is God Himself. The knowledge gained by Job propels him into a spirit of praise and worship, preparing him to minister as a priest for his erring friends.

It was a sold out auditorium for the 7th annual Canyon Crest Academy Envision Cinema MiniCine Fest. Twenty films were showcased as part of the annual production. The 48-Hour Film Festival, as it's also referenced, has grown in size every year, according to CCA Envision Cinema Coordinator Mark Raines.
"When it first started it was a really small event with a limited group of kids only open to students here at CCA and now it's grown into something where students throughout the entire school district can participate in," Raines said.
The two film festival categories included the Judges' Choice Award won by the film "The Dreamer" with Tyler Jones and Quincy Smith. The Audience Choice Award went to the film "The Final Component" with Melanie An, Angela Melugin and Katie Sheng.
