AceShowbiz - Robert Kirkman has been hit with a second lawsuit filed by his childhood friend and former illustrator, Tony Moore. After suing the comic book writer over the payment of "The Walking Dead" royalty, he now files a new lawsuit to seek a declaratory judgment that he is a joint author of "Walking Dead" and other works.
"Kirkman is a proud liar," Moore says in a complaint filed on Tuesday, August 7 in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, "and fraudster who freely admits that he has no qualm about misrepresenting material facts in order to consummate business transactions, and it is precisely that illicit conduct which led to the present lawsuit (and to Kirkman's business 'success' generally)."
The other works Moore is seeking the co-authorship of are "Battle Pope", "Brit", "Dead Planet" and "My Name Is Abraham". He adds that once the judge grants him the co-authorship, he will then "pursue his rights as a co-owner to proceeds generated from the Works."
Though so, Kirkman's attorney Allen Grodzky believes the new lawsuit won't prevail in court. "His lawyer finally realized, 'Oh crap, we filed in the wrong place,' " Grodsky states. "Our position is that it is never going to get to that issue because he is never going to be able to show fraud, plus the statute of limitations on co-ownership has passed. Also, he's not a co-owner."
Previously, Kirkman claimed Moore was "violating" their existing contract by suing him over the proceeds of "Walking Dead". "Tony regularly receives payment for the work he did as penciler, inker and for gray tones on the first six issues of The Walking Dead comic series and he receives royalties for the TV show, to assert otherwise is simply incorrect," he insisted.
Kirkman also filed a countersuit against Moore, claiming that he had actually overpaid Moore for his work and was entitled to money back.

Raonic, Milos playing against Mannarino, Adrian. Our tennis tipster Rich Rea Tennis can help you WIN.
Click HERE to get the Free Tip.
"When you play on a Grand Slam, it's always a high probability of more than 3 sets in a match. The odds are really nice on this event, concerning that Mannarino plays at home and will be strongly supported there. Also Mannarino has played some good matches recently (against Paire, Haase, Pella and Kukushkin) which proves his good performance. Milos Raonic is quite an unpredictable player and everything depends on his good service. If he should have a worse day, it's a chance for Mannarino to win at least one set (and I'm sure he is going to have these opportunities)."

How do you control anger?
When using behavior modification you learn your triggers, while discovering and recognizing your body's clues.
When this occurs you change your perception taking your negative thoughts and changing them to positive thoughts.
Changing your perception on how you view these events is a way to rationalize the moment.
Stop jumping to the negative talk such as, "How come things never go right for me?"
Things will not always go your way and when they don't, learn to grab control of your emotions before they escalate.
When you do lose your temper take some time afterwards to review the incident. What made you explode? The real reason. It may not be so much that this person didn't know what they were doing rather than maybe you were upset that you weren't getting what you wanted or maybe you got angry because you felt you didn't have control over the situation. Is there a thought pattern you could have put in place that would have allowed you to better control anger and handle the situation? Discover the underlying reason as to why you got upset and then determine if it was rational. Stop taking things so seriously. Is what you exploded over really life or death important?
Here is an example: When you are putting something together and you're getting tired and you do know when this is even if you ignore it, you can feel it. So you're starting to get those rushing frustrated thoughts and you're starting to say negative things out load or under your breath… do you walk away and take a break like you should? Noooooo because you are so frustrated you just want to get this project finished and done with. So instead you keep going and you unintentionally are sabotaging your efforts, the screw driver keeps slipping, the pieces don't fit right, you start cursing and swear that they forgot to add a needed piece in the box, frustration builds more, streams of sweat are running down from your forehead and that's even frustrating you. You explode throw the whole thing aside and voice your determination to just put it outside by the road… it can't be done - especially with that missing piece! After you release that anger you go take your frustration out somewhere else or just give up and go watch some television.
Tomorrow when you get up and you look at the mess as you're having your cup of coffee, you decide to attempt this again, now you think, "Maybe I missed something?" You look at the instructions as you contemplate the pieces you've put together and sure enough you see where you made your error, "I'll be dog'gon they didn't forget to put any pieces in the box" ... and I guess you can always position that chipped piece (that happened when you threw it out of anger) against the wall to hide it.
So from this example as you calmly read, you know exactly what you should have done to control anger. The problem is you are blind to your actions when you are so heatedly involved. The trick is to become aware that this is the way things affect you and learn to read the signs that your body gives you.
Control anger by becoming aware of the negative talk in your head. When you were frustrated you could have sworn that the store that sold you this item was responsible for giving you an incomplete set. Chances are you also blamed the stupid people who packed it thinking that they can never do anything right!
To control anger you need to teach yourself to stop your thought process and realize that you are jumping to conclusions that are irrational.
When your body got tired this should have been your first clue. You ignored that clue so then you started to feel the frustration surface, this was your second clue but again you ignored it. Then you started to have negative thoughts one after the other building on frustration, clue three. Then your body and mind started to weaken due to the negativity, the screw driver kept slipping and nothing would go right, clue four. If you don't catch yourself by this clue then prepare to explode!
This is what I mean by getting to know your body and the signs that it gives you. Work diligently to control anger by catching yourself on the first clue and change your direction of thought or walk away and don't return to the project until you are calm and relaxed.
You always need a back up plan so when you get tired you don't push yourself but walk away to get involved with something else or simply go take a shower and relax.
We have tomorrows so that what we don't get done today will get finished later. Sure it would be great to snap our fingers to finish an unwanted project but we can't - so go into any situation with the right attitude. Get to know yourself and how you react.
Drill in your head that throwing a temper tantrum or throwing and breaking something may feel great for about 1 ½ seconds as you release that negative energy but what destruction do you leave behind? Is it worth it?
You need to recognize when your body first signals you that frustration is present. Immediately stop what you are doing and turn your attention elsewhere. Picture the negativity and frustration as poison starting to pulsate through your veins.
When you don't control anger the negativity will not only weaken your willpower but will weaken your physical abilities, negativity drains your energy. Remind yourself that becoming frustrated will not resolve anything and after the fact you will regret your actions.
There is always a solution to a problem you just need to understand your body's clues - slow yourself enough to rationalize things out in your head – then attack the situation with problem solving techniques using thought not aggressive outbursts.

Before children, I romanticized about choosing a family Christmas tree. I grew up in a house where my dad assembled an artificial tree every year. The idea of going to a Christmas tree farm, or even a local tree sale, delighted me. Little did I know that selecting a tree would be a low point in our holiday season.
Year 1 (2007): Lauren is 20 months old; Will is 5 months old. My husband and I are smart enough to realize that visiting a tree farm is too big an undertaking with two babies. But we think, "Hey! Wouldn't this be a great time to take our Christmas card photo?" The kids were not up for a photo shoot, as evidenced here:
Year 2 (2008): I'm fairly certain we were scarred from year one. Ted asked my mother-in-law to join us, so that someone could manage the children while we made our selection.
Year 3 (2009): Back to the original town sale. I stay in the car with the kids, who show no signs of interest. Ted chooses the tree, I give him the thumbs up, and we're out of there. So much for a family experience.
Year 4 (2010): We get brave and decide to try visiting a Christmas tree farm with the kids. We visit post lunch when Will (age 3) gets tired. This is probably the most miserable Christmas tree shopping experience of my life. We end up leaving the boy in the van with his hat pulled over his eyes.
Lauren (age 4) doesn't like the tree we've selected. She wants a Charlie Brown version, instead.
And here is my poor husband, trying his best to smile for the camera.
Year 5 (2011): Something happens. We return to the same tree farm, half-expecting one of our children to have a melt down, but no one does. The whole family is in a good mood and excited to find a tree. It's a Christmas miracle 5 years in the making.

From the locker room to the board room, there is growing awareness about the importance of resiliency, or grit, to top performance. While reality TV shows perpetuate the myth of an overnight success, leaders recognize that greatness only happens when talent intersects practice work ethic. But we're not talking about antiquated notions of mental toughness. This is about mental skills and the willingness to accept vulnerability. Performance is not predicated upon the absence of anxiety, it is ownership and vulnerability that builds strength and resiliency.
Football is a sport where individual creativity supports collective success. A game which closely resembles life - continuously changing, constant decision making, unpredictable outcomes and no timeouts. Football is about communication, both verbal and non verbal, and tactics are just tools to improve communication among players. While the passing technique of Modric or the finishing ability of Messi is lauded, their execution, their technique is a function of communication and decision making. They are not trick shot artists or circus performers, their talent is performing in service to the team. Where football teams use a formation as a heuristic to make teammates more predictable, corporate leaders use strategy and planning to help employees and partners contribute more effectively. The best coaches are servant leaders, putting the growth and well being of their players first. They get to know them as people, for whom one part of their identity is as a football player. By understanding them as a whole person, coaches help create an environment where players motivate themselves.

While these are some of the techniques that could help your business grow, there is another way that a hefty percentage of entrepreneurs kept on dismissing due to fear or confusion of how to navigate around it. Yes, you have guessed it: it is the internet.
After many years of traditional business,…Continue

Shelby Farms Gets Started On The Heart of the Park
Last week, Shelby Farms broke ground on their new "Heart of the Park" expansion.
Adorable day campers "breaking ground" with oars.
This is the next phase of the master plan to improve the park. Projects from the master plan like the Wolf River pedestrian bridge and the Woodland Discovery Playground are already finished. The new projects include a new visitor's center with a big "front porch" area, a restaurant and retreat facility, a stage for events and concerts, and more.
Patriot Lake will be expanded from 52 acres to 85 acres and have a new boat dock where people can rent kayaks, canoes, and paddleboats.
The park should remian open throughout construction, and should take about two years to complete. You can read more here.

Update Jan. 15, 2015: In addition to all of these improvements, Shelby Farms has brought in a zip line company, Go Ape, to turn six acres of the Park into a zip line/ropes course with 42 obstacles, including ladders, trapezes, and bridges. According to the Commercial Appeal, it will cost about $57 to go through the two- to three-hour guided course. The Shelby Farms zip line course is expected to open in March of 2015.
Here's an animation of some of the other Heart of the Park changes.

So the students here are all gone home for Xmas, leaving us to conduct proficiency flying and catch up on paperwork. Since I won't actually have any students of my own until after New Years, my paperwork load is pretty slim. That means I get to focus on getting ready for my Aerobatic Instructor flight test—if the weather changes, that is.
The problem, however, is that the weather isn't cooperating. It hasn't been for some time now. I had a 4 week stretch without flying during November/December thanks to the weather. Whenever it did clear up, students had priority. So since I don't have my own students, I got to sit on the ground. I got a couple of flights in a few days ago, and that's about it.
It's amazing how quickly g-tolerance deteriorates when you get out of practice. Ditto for maneuvering tolerance with regard to airsickness. It comes back fast, but the first hard aerobatic flight (or three) after an extended break can be pretty rough.
Unfortunately, the Grob isn't certified for snaprolls, instead they're a prohibited maneuver. It's too bad, since snaprolls are one of my favourite aerobatic maneuvers. The good news is that we can still do hammerheads (my second favorite!), and the other 8 maneuvers required on the ride (Spin, Barrel Roll, Slow Roll, Immelman, Split-S, 1/2 Cuban-8, 1/2 Reverse Cuban-8), not to mention a few others that can be flown just for fun.
Now if only the weather would clear up so I could fine-tune the maneuvers and the teaching...
Happy Flying!

These bomber jackets are the Crème de la Crème.
We wanted the look of a coat with a big fur collar, so you can stay warm in winter and look amazing whilst doing so. We also had to bear in mind that not everyone likes a fur collar, so we put a small hidden zip in the back of the collar, way out of sight or touch (so it won't itch your neck); this means you can add or remove the collar whenever you fancy.
The inside of the jacket is quilted 100% cotton, colour matched to the jackets. This luxury material inside, with the thick 100% cotton of the actual jacket means they are double lined, giving the garments a heavy weight which shows off the quality, and it also keeps you super snug & warm.
The fur on the collars is faux fur in case you were wondering. No animals were harmed in the making of these jackets. We did source the softest faux fur we could find though, and trust me when I say you'll just want to rub your face in it all day.

The First Minister is in a dither about it; the cabinet is split over it; church figures call for a referendum as gay rights activists take to the streets. No, not Tuesday's aborted cabinet decision on same-sex marriage, but the Labour-Liberal Democrat cabinet in 2000 during the row over the abolition of Section 2A on the teaching of homosexuality in schools. It is remarkable that the first real split faced by the SNP First Minister, Alex Salmond, is over homosexual equality, just as it was for the late Donald Dewar.
I recall that episode very well, not least because I was close, perhaps too close, to the ministers, led by the former Communities Minister, Wendy Alexander, who were leading the campaign to abolish Section 2A. The ferocity of the response took them by surprise. They thought Scotland was a tolerant nation and that abolishing the clause would be a foregone conclusion. Then came Brian Souter, Cardinal Winning and Keep the Clause. Donald Dewar, a conservative liberal, if that isn't a contradiction in terms, found it an almost impossible conundrum.
And so, it appears, does Alex Salmond. Roll on 12 years and the SNP First Minister is caught between liberals in the cabinet led by the Health Secretary, Nicola Sturgeon who believe that homosexuals should have equal rights, and Catholic ministers like Roseanna Cunningham, who think that gay marriage might be an equality too far. Salmond clearly hasn't made up his mind and since nothing happens without his say so, the government seems paralysed.
But like all attempts to fudge difficult moral issues, same sex marriage has become ever more volatile during the months of prevarication and delay. The first attempt to defuse it , by hold a consultation,
backfired since the 80,000 odd responses are understood to be largely hostile to gay marriage. And that is three times the number who responded to the consultation on the independence referendum. The result is perhaps not surprising since the churches have a powerful network of congregations that can be mobilised to respond to consultations en masse. The majority of Scots, according to opinion polls, support gay marriage or equal marriage as activists call it, but it doesn't look good when governments ignore their own public consultations.
Unable to come to a decision this week, the cabinet has resorted to that other delaying device – setting up a committee. Some equality advocates are saying that Salmond has already made his decision in favour of same sex marriage and that the sub-committee, under Nicola Sturgeon, is just for show – designed to generate angry headlines from the gay rights groups so that the Cardinal doesn't think Alex is in their pocket. I'm not so sure.
The problem is that the antis are insisting that any bill introducing gay marriage in Scotland should guarantee that no churchman will be taken to court under the Equality Act or the European Convention on Human Rights for refusing to conduct a gay marriage in his place of worship. It is very difficult to give absolute guarantees on human rights issues. Can any politician guarantee that the church could never be taken to court over refusing to allow women to become priests? It hasn't been, though it is clearly contrary to the spirit of the Equality Act 2010.
Pro marriage campaigners claim that in Canada, which legalised same sex marriage in 2005, church members are being prosecuted for refusing to conduct these unions. That's true: in Saskatchewan, a state-appointed marriage commissioner was taken to court for refusing gay marriage. But that's because marriage commissioners are government employees. In Canada religious ministers are not at risk of being compelled to perform same sex ceremonies.
So in theory, it should simply be a matter of placing on the face of the bill to legalise same sex marriage in Scotland (remember is is illegal at present) a provision exempting members of religious orders from any obligation to conduct them. This is what the 2010 Equality Act does, in effect, by making clear that ministers, priests, monks and nuns are exempt from equality in employment rights. But Church leaders like Cardinal Keith O'Brien are unlikely to be satisfied with any drafting formula however ingenious. For them, it is not really about law anyway but the threat, as they see it, that gay marriage presents to the heterosexual status quo. He believes Christian civilisation would collapse if same sex marriage were legalised. This is an extreme view, but one that seems to be shared by many people as the consultation confirmed.
So, I doubt if another committee is going to get Alex off the hook. I'm sure that Salmond himself is minded to support equal marriage, as he confirmed yesterday. But he doesn't want to lose all those Catholic votes he has so assiduously courted over the years. The referendum on independence needs every vote it can get. I suspect the FM would willingly postpone the decision until after the 2014 referendum if the thought he would get away with it. (Maybe he could even have a new second question instead of devo max?) But any more jiggery pokery over equal marriage would open a real fissure in his party. MEPs like Alyn Smith and MSPs like Jim Eadie have made clear that they're going to hold the leadership to account. This is more serious than the u-turn on Nato membership.
And in the end, the First Minister has to provide leadership, because no one else can. It is unfortunate the FM didn't earlier emulate the PM, David Cameron, who famously said: "I support gay marriage because I am a conservative". You have to nail your colours or others will do it for you
Returning to 2000 and Keep the Clause – it went ahead with its referendum and the Scottish Executive remained in disarray. Then, something extraordinary happened. Tony Blair came north to the Labour conference that year and gave a speech insisting that no one was going to force feed children homosexual propaganda and that no teacher would be required to promote homosexuality in the classroom. And miraculously, as if by divine intervention, the issue simply went away.
Maybe Alex should get on the blower to Blair, now he's back in the politics business, and invite him north to do a bit of conflict resolution. It's only a suggestion.

|Controlling flow in microfluidic channels with a manually actuated pin valve.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21472409 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|There is a need for a simple method to control fluid flow within microfluidic channels. To meet this need, a simple push pin with a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) tip has been integrated into microfluidic networks to be placed within the microchannel to obstruct flow. This new valve design can attain on/off control of fluid flow without an external power source using readily-available, low-cost materials. The valve consists of a 14 gauge (1.6 mm) one inch piece of metal tubing with a PDMS pad at the tip to achieve a fluidic seal when pressed against a microfluidic channel's substrate. The metal tubing or pin is then either manually pushed down to block or pulled up to allow fluid flow. The valve was validated using a pressure transducer and fluorescent dye to determine the breakthrough pressure the valve can withstand over multiple cycles. In the first cycle, the median value for pressure withstood by the valve was 8.8 psi with a range of 17.5-2.7 psi. The pressure the valves were able to withstand during each successive trial was lower suggesting they may be most valuable as a method to control the initial introduction of fluids into a microfluidic device. These valves can achieve flow regulation within microfluidic devices, have a small dead volume, and are simple to fabricate and use, making this technique widely suitable for a range of applications.

This post is part of a series exploring the new style dock.
- Part 1 – Styles
- Part 2 – Plugin pages
- Part 3 – New panel API
A while ago did a post about the new style dock in QGIS. The first stage was getting labels working and then moving on to styles. After many iterations of the UIs and the APIs I'm pretty happy with the release state of the dock. We now have styles (vector and raster), labels, saved styles, undo redo, and plugin support (yep!)
Of all the features I have added to QGIS this is my favorite. Nothing has made me feel more productive then working on this feature and seeing the gains it allows in day to day work.
If you haven't used the style dock yet I would strongly encourage you to grab the nightly QGIS builds and give it a crack, F7 to open anytime, or use the paint brush icon on the layers panel. I'm not bragging when I say that it will change your life in QGIS for the better, it has become a part of my daily workflow. No going back!
Dock break down
As you can see in the image there is a few main things in the dock, the layer selection, style options selector (come back to this later), undo/redo, live update and apply.
Live Updates
One of the key things for me when doing this dock was instant feedback. I really hated the open close, change, apply, repeat workflow of the old dialogs. Every widget in the dock can request a redraw on change so you can see feedback instantly in the canvas. This might not always be what you want so you can disable it for those cases and use manual apply.
Undo Stack
Live updates come with a risk. What happens if you apply something you didn't mean. There is no cancel button. Well not to fear we now have a undo/redo stack. Any style change will now add an entry to the style undo stack so you can rollback and forward any changes. Undo/Redo now allows for fearless style changes, so style away to your hearts content and rollback anything you don't like.
I will also add that the undo stack is stored on the layer object itself, so closing the dock doesn't clear the stack nor does changing the active layer. You can also access the stack via the Python bindings if needed.
Style Options
On the side of the dock we have the different style options. These buttons change the style options in the main panel.
- Style
- Label
- Saved styles
- Undo/Redo
- Style
- Transparency
- Histogram
- Saved styles
- Undo/Redo
The Saved Styles and Undo/Redo will always be the last in the stack regardless of the active layer type.
Style UIs (Note: GIF heavy section)
Almost all the widgets have been tweaked to allow for better dock layout. Widgets are now in a more uniform layout which flows better when moving around in the dock and just generally look better.
When I talked about live updates before this applies to everything, even the data defined buttons. Any changes in those will be reflected into the canvas without any extra clicks.
Changing renderers is now simple and quick. You go from nothing to seeing instant results in seconds.
A excellent side effect of the live updates is workflows that were never exposed before and now possible. Using the graduated renderer histogram for example. As the histogram allows for live edits we can now update the map on the fly from adjusting the histogram.
Style UIs (Raster)
As soon as I finished vectors it became pretty evident that raster layers were going to be the next main thing to move. So the style dock fully supports raster styling.
For the final trick. Here we have the undo/redo stack in action. Unlimited undo/redo on all layers when changing styles. Fearless change he we come
Trying to find a picture to sum up my feelings about the style dock and I think this fits
but of course I'm super bias.
Stay tuned for Part 2 where I talk about adding your own style panels to the style dock.

I have always found this war poem from World War I very moving. The author is "L.W.", and I have been unable to discover his identity. The poem powerfully reminds us of how easy it is to forget Christ, He who is most important in our brief lives here on Earth.
"WE had forgotten You, or very nearly–
You did not seem to touch us very nearly–
Of course we thought about You now and then;
Especially in any time of trouble–
We knew that You were good in time of trouble–
But we are very ordinary men.
And there were always other things to think of–
There's lots of things a man has got to think of–
His work, his home, his pleasure, and his wife;
And so we only thought of You on Sunday–
Sometimes, perhaps, not even on a Sunday–
Because there's always lots to fill one's life.
And, all the while, in the street or lane or byway–
In country lane, in city street, or byway–
You walked among us, and we did not see.
Your feet were bleeding as You walked our pavements–
How did we miss Your Footprints on our pavements–
Can there be other folk as blind as we?
Now we remember; over here in Flanders
(It isn't strange to think of You in Flanders)–
This hideous warfare seems to make things clear.
We never thought about You much in England–
But now that we are far away from England–
We have no doubts, we know that You are here.
You helped us pass the jest along the trenches–
Where, in cold blood, we waited in the trenches–
You touched its ribaldry and made it fine.
You stood beside us in our pain and weakness–
We're glad to think You understand our weakness–
Somehow it seems to help us not to whine.
We think about You kneeling in the Garden–
Ah! God! the agony of that dread Garden–
We know You prayed for us upon the Cross.
If anything could make us glad to bear it–
'Twould he the knowledge that You willed to bear it–
Pain–death–the uttermost of human loss.
Although we forgot You–You will not forget us–
We feel so sure that You will not forget us–
But stay with us until this dream is past.
And so we ask for courage, strength, and pardon–
Especially, I think, we ask for pardon–
And that You'll stand beside us to the last.

The performers of DanceBrazil, as seen this week at the Joyce Theater, exist in a ravishing, hard-working paradise. They're barefoot; their attire (T-shirts, loose trousers, light dresses or skirts) has no hint of luxury. What matters here above all is the gorgeously full physicality of movement, allied to music. While spines continually plunge beneath the level of the waist, legs kick explosively above it or maintain powerful extensions like searchlights.
Their world looks idyllic because the eight men and two women appear deeply sensuous yet show little hint of eroticism. The two sexes share the stage without tension. At one point in the second half of the program seven men, crouching, gaze at two women who've just entered. The situation is provocative, charged by flirtatious potential. When the women leave, the men erupt in a happy frenzy — and yet it's as if the women are no longer on their minds.
And when, near the end, a couple of male-female duets are conducted with extreme physical proximity, there's a touch of comedy about it. In other male-female duets, women are lifted and supported in off-balance moves, but there's no doubt that both partners are working as equals. There's plenty of male-male partnering: even when it hints at dueling, the emphasis is all on cooperation.
Yet these dancers, who seem so untroubled by sex, are naturally sexy. The pliancy of those torsos is often breathtaking — not just in the way backs tip so powerfully and freely this way and that, but also in the ways that shoulders or stomach muscles contract and pulsate rhythmically.
The links between DanceBrazil and the United States are strong. The group was founded in 1977; Alvin Ailey joined its board in 1980 and helped the company to broaden its appeal. Since the 1980s, it has been a regular visitor to New York and other North American cities.
The simplicity of the costumes is part of the charm; the lighting, designed by Marcelo Moacyr, adds touches of drama without excess or fanciness. The music is a curious blend of live instruments and taped sound. Over recordings that include a wide variety of orchestration, three percussionists play a fascinating selection of instruments. It's easy now and then to take your eyes off the stage and happily lose yourself in how the sounds and rhythms are made by Dendé, Meia Noite and Gil Oliviera.
The stage action, as a program note observes, fuses "Afro-Brazilian movement, contemporary dance, and capoeira, the traditional dance/martial arts form that had its origins in Africa and evolved in colonial Brazil as a means of fighting enslavement." Although I've seen several examples of capoeira since the 1980s, the first half of the current Joyce program, "Banguela" (2010), showed me that there's much more to this genre than a single viewing yields. The word banguela applies, the program explains, to "a special rhythm played to calm down the capoeiristas when their play in the roda gets too heated." (A roda is the circle in which two capoeiristas play or battle against each other.)
Much of "Banguela" stays close to the floor, with marvelous stretchings of the torso and legs. With few of the jumps that can be the most exciting part of capoeira, the spectacular features of "Banguela" instead consist of different uses of balance, sudden uses of speed and athleticism (handstands in various combinations). There are images of combat, but they're embedded in a larger communal image of shared purpose. Sharp and sweeping movements are connected into larger sequences that have the continuous meter of work or exercise rhythms.
Both this and the program's second half, "Fé do Sertão," are choreographed by the company's artistic director, Jelon Vieira. "Fé do Sertão," a New York premiere, depicts aspects of life in Serão, a largely rural area of Northwestern Brazil with an extremely arid climate and many lean months, punctuated by a brief growing season; in particular it refers to the annual thanksgiving in June for the end of rain, the corn harvest and the beginning of winter. During the course of the dances, various gestures and actions suggest patient waiting, rain, intense harvest work and the changing life of a community across the cycle of the year. (The score includes the clip-clop of horses' hooves.)
The immense appeal of DanceBrazil's physicality is countered by a tendency in Mr. Vieira's choreography to generalize. Though the dances keep changing in scale and manner, they aren't always alive with internal contrast.
In the closing sections of "Fé do Sertão," however, extra layers come into play: rapidly rhythmic footwork, speeds, ebullient jumps. The dancers, engaging from the first, glow enthusiastically as they let rip at highest energy. More of this metric and dynamic complexity would have been welcome earlier, but the beauty and style of these dancers is already a treat to the senses.

The Museum of Methodism and John Wesley's House are committed to providing the widest possible physical, intellectual, social, geographical and cultural access to its collections and buildings. Different users have different needs and the objects are held and displayed for the enjoyment and study for everyone regardless of education, income, residence, or personal circumstances.
This Policy Statement has been informed by the Curator's Access Assessment and has been written with reference to the heritage stewards, the trustees of the museum and other day-to-day visitors and users of the museum. It is 'open access' access, i.e. it is available for inspection to the public in the museum together with the Visitor Charter, the Environmental Sustainability Policy and the Collections Development Policy.
The Museum aims to:
1. Provide physical access to the site and collections; thus visitors with physical special needs are catered for by reducing the barriers to entering the Museum (e.g. ramps, lift, disabled toilet) and collections are displayed at easy viewing heights with clear, easy-to-read panels, labels and reference guides. The Museum's signage was reviewed and wholly re-developed in line with DDA guidelines in 2010/11 and the museum refurbished in 2012-15. Where possible, obstacles to physical access were identified and integrated into the refurbishment works. Any new displays and development will be organised in accordance with physical and intellectual access requirements.
2. Encourage the widest possible audience to study and enjoy the collections. This includes everyone, as far as possible, to have access to scholarship and information about the collection by providing archive material not immediately accessible in the museum displays for further study on the Museum iPads, and relevant scholarly publications in the Museum shop.
3. Encourage individual as well as group visitors of all backgrounds and nationalities to visit all of the Wesley Chapel site, including the Museum of Methodism, John Wesley's House, the Chapel, the Foundery Chapel and the graveyard to foster understanding and a true sense of place. Tours will be led by trained and knowledgeable guides.
4. Enable students and specialists to view and/or handle the collections not currently on display to access stores and archival collections, including the Archives Room in John Wesley's House by appointment with the Curator, providing the objects and documents are sound. This includes specialist handling sessions for individuals and/or groups by appointment.
5. Review and augment written information continually, especially collection and buildings-related leaflets, with the aim of translating these into yet more languages for non-English speaking visitors and pilgrims whenever an opportunity arises. Also, to develop the museum's audio-visual presentation to include languages other than the existing English and Korean versions as resources permit.
6. Keep entry to the Museum of Methodism and John Wesley's House free of charge because we realise that a need to pay an admission fee can be a barrier to access for all; also, to open up the front door of John Wesley's House into City Road during the summer months as often as possible to encourage passers-by and non-visitors to walk in and discover the rest of our heritage site.
7. Encourage people unable to visit in person (for physical or geographical reasons) to use the Museum website (www.wesleysheritage.org.uk) by keeping it up-to-date and making available information about the museum and collections, an on-line tour of John Wesley's House, contact details and providing an online shop for museum-related purchases.
8. Make available all details pertaining to visiting the Museum, John Wesley's House and the Chapel in ways which are easy to access, for instance by the entrance gates of the site, in the Visitor Charter, on leaflets and on the Museum's website.
Our aim is to build accessibility into everything we do to develop and improve the service. Our commitment is long term and our aim is to make continuous improvements as our resources permit. Our commitment to accessibility extends to our visitors as well as to our staff and volunteers.
