The Faculty of Social Sciences is one of the most multidisciplinary faculties in the HSE. It is the product of uniting the faculties of sociology, applied political science, psychology and public administration, which are now schools, and a series of laboratories, research centers and institutes. This kind of synthesis of education and research in the sphere of social sciences is a standard part of global best practice for a modern research university.
We train researchers, analysts and practitioners of sociology, political science, psychology and management, and specialists in education, demographics, public policy and civil society. Our primary strategy in teaching bachelors, masters and doctorate courses is to prepare students to meet global demands and requirements as successful professionals.

Summer School in Iceland
Democratic Constitutional Design:Negotiating Civic Engagement, Institutional Control and the Common Good
First International Summer SchoolBifröst, Iceland, 20-26 July 2019
Application deadline – 25 March 2019
One of the greatest challenges of contemporary politics is how to face new authoritarian tendencies in many new democracies, and deepening distrust and polarization in countries that for decades – even centuries – have played leading roles in cultivating and developing democratic governance. The Summer School looks at democratic constitutional design as a political project that can engage citizens in reimagining the fundamental contract of society. During one week of lectures, discussion and team work students will explore the role, nature and structure of constitutions.
The Icelandic constitutional experiment 2009-2013 will be studied, in which an elected Constitutional Council created a draft constitution using a fully open, inclusive and transparent process, thereby permanently affecting dominant ideas about constitutional design. Recent work in deliberative and epistemic democratic theory will be discussed as well as emerging ideas of democratic crowdsourcing and crowdlaw. Special attention will be paid to democratic transitions – failed and successful – and to attempts to create methodologies for direct democratic control through mini-publics, public assemblies etc.
The School is organized by the Department of Political Science at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (Moscow) and the School of Humanities at the University of Iceland (Reykjavík). The academic directors of the School are Sergei Medvedev (NRU HSE) and Jón Ólafsson (University of Iceland). The School is part of the international educational project Escapes from Modernity (see also Facebook).
The key topics of the School:
The School will be held at the campus of Bifröst University located 100 km from Reykjavík, the capital of Iceland. Students will have an opportunity to enjoy the unique environment of Bifröst, which is located in the middle of a lava field created in a local eruption around 1600 BC. The area is excellent for hiking and many kinds of outdoors activity.
Students of any academic level and any university are welcome to apply. The participation costs are partly covered by the organizers of the School. Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com to find out the cost of participation and submit your application. An application must include the applicant's full name, institutional affiliation (university, department, program, year of study) and contact details (E-mail, phone number). Application deadline is 25 March 2019.
Contacts: Valentin Kopylov, Project Assistant, firstname.lastname@example.com, +7 (999) 825-7266.

The City of Auburn wants to know...
Did you know that pet waste can contain pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasitic worms which can transmit disease to humans?
Your pet's waste affects the water quality of lakes, streams and marine waters in our area. Typically, storm water never passes through a sanitary sewer treatment facility. In other words, anything on the ground can eventually end up in a nearby water way.
It is also important to know that you should never flush pet waste! Septic systems and wastewater treatment plants are not designed to treat pet waste.
The City of Auburn encourages all pet owners to pick up after their pets!

Ginny's Yarn Along. I join you today as a work in progress, actually as many works in progress. I am working on Grandma's Christmas present (you can see why I started it early!) it is kind of boring and because it is three balls at once not a great take with me project, so slowly it is getting bigger. I like it but it is dull to work on.
The other project is a market bag I started a year ago and have frogged about 14 times. It was beyond my skill when I started knitting it and frustrated me because just when I figured it out I would fine the mistake (usually ten or more rows back) that was causing the pattern to not work! After the last frogging I tucked it away. I will finish it I've started it too many time not to, and actually the pattern is making a lot more sense, coming so much easier this time. When it is done it will be mine and I hope to feel pride in it not just have a symbol of my stubbornness.
I am reading In The Dark by Heather Graham and enjoying it but I did not notice when I picked it up in the store yesterday (shopping while irritated with Husband is not good) that it is actually two novellas by different authors. I have not read anything by the other author so it will be surprise time. The kids and I are still reading Little House in the Big Woods, it has been hard lately to find time when we are all home and I don't want anyone to miss a chapter. Mouse and I are still working on Tumtum and Nutmeg which is an amazing book! For summer reading I have a stack of serious books I want to read and will likely read a ton of novels as I have decided that come fall I am not reading fiction again to help me have more time for family, school, and crafting. I can read a non-fiction book over the course of a few weeks reading when I have time, but a fiction book sucks me in and I have to stay with the story. My non-fiction start for the summer is Historical Archaeology - A Comprehensive Guide for Both Amateurs and Professionals to the Techniques and Methods of Excavating Historical Sites. I have used parts for reference in the lab but never read it so here goes.
The quilt square in the background is a project I am working on for a friend. Her cousin was hit by a train and lost part of his leg. He is 10. She is requesting donations of crafted items which she is auctioning off to raise money for his medical bills. She is setting up a blog for the auction and I will post the link as soon as it is done.

I love the quilt and its colors
Good luck finishing
God Bless
Your grandma is one lucky lady! I really like the colors :)ReplyDelete

The Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird-eating Tarantula is a relatively large spider originating from northeastern Brazil, hence its common name. This spider typically grows to a leg span of 20 cm (8 in), although occasionally exceptional specimens can reach leg spans of 25 cm (10 in, with 11.5 inches specimens recorded). Large females can weigh upwards of 100 grams. This tarantula is one of the largest in the world, often cited as the second or third largest (after the Theraphosa blondi). In the wild the Brazilian salmon pink tarantula has even been known to prey on some small snakes.
They are popular as pets in the tarantula keeping hobby today, although not recommended for beginners, as they are fast, large, and will probably kick urticating bristles if aggravated. Not quick to bite, however, this species is considered somewhat 'handleable' in the hobby, but its fangs (in adults and sub-adults), which often reach up to one full inch, are capable of medically significant mechanical damage.
These arachnids can be kept quite easily in a terrarium that measures at three times its leg span in length but not too high as a fall can kill this tarantula due to its size. This tarantula loves a humid environment, thriving at relative humidities of between 65-80%. However the keeper should be aware that mold can form at very high humidities, so good ventilation (especially cross ventilation) is crucial. The terrarium should be furnished with a deep substrate (peat moss or vermiculite are the most popular in the hobby today) and a water dish. Isopods kept live in the substrate help with mold as they've been known to eat it, as well as feeder remains. They should be kept at temperatures of around 25 C (75 to 85 F). Schultz (1998) states "The largest giant tarantulas (e.g. Lasiodora parahybana, Lasiodora klugi and Theraphosa blondi) require an unexpected amount of food compared to other more conventional tarantulas.
One enthusiast feeds his collection three subadult mice a week; these tarantulas are definitely not for the rank amateur, the faint of heart, or a person of limited income. The staple diet in captivity is the (Acheta domestica, Orthopotera Gryllidae) or domestic house crickets; an adult Lasiodora parahybana can consume several in one sitting, this can be supplemented with pinkie mice once or twice a month. Most collectors, however, do not recommend supplementing with mice. Many collectors prefer to feed roaches to their tarantulas, especially those as large as the L. parahybana. They are easily more filling, and nutritious, than a cricket.

Seven Under Investigation Over Controversial Sunrise Segment
The backlash surrounding an infamous segment about adoption policies for Indigenous children on Seven's Sunrise just won't go away, with the brekkie show now facing an investigation over it.
The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has opened an 'own motion' investigation into Seven's compliance with the Commercial Television Industry Code of Practice in relation to the segment.
"This investigation is at an early stage but will follow the normal course, including an assessment of submissions from the licensee," an ACMA spokesperson told B&T.
Sunrise faced fierce criticism last month for a segment hosted by Samantha Armytage about a push by the federal government to change adoption policies for indigenous kids.
Activists mobbed the Sunrise studios in protest, forcing the show's producers to lower the blinds on the studios' windows and running stock footage of Martin Place to block the protest from viewers.
However, Sunrise defended its actions, with a spokesperson telling B&T some of the protesters were holding offensive signage, while others began banging on the windows and mouthing obscenities.
The controversial segment was also mocked by the ABC and The Betoota Advocate.

Posted on April 05 2017
We all have those friends who seem to be in perpetual great shape. Of course, we love to keep ourselves active, but like anyone else, we can get jealous of those friends. It's hard to stay in shape all the time and stay healthy through sheer determination alone. And they make it look so easy!
However, it's not just magic that's keeping them healthy. It's a set of habits that can be built up over time that eventually doesn't feel like work to keep up anymore. Aka, they just become part of our lives.
They actually enjoy staying active.
If you're one of those people who dreads every minute of your upcoming workout, it's time to find a different approach to exercise. Because of most of the time, fit people find a way to actually enjoy—and even look forward to—their workouts.
And while that may not always mean they're excited to do 100 burpees or run 6 miles on any given day, it does mean that they like the feeling of being fit and value that more than their desire to sit on the couch.
They don't diet.
Rather than selecting one of the many diets that we see across the Internet, fit people don't necessarily "diet"; they make healthy eating a part of their lifestyle.
Ultimately, the key to staying fit and eating healthy is to listen to your body. What makes you feel good and keeps you feeling full and energised throughout the day? Learn to answer this question and others for yourself, and you'll soon be on the road to embracing healthy eating as a lifestyle rather than slashing corners (or favourite foods) for a diet.
They spend time with other like-minded people.
You know that saying "you are what you eat?" Well, you are who you eat with (and socialise with) as well!
If all your friends are constantly eating fast food and enjoy sedentary activities over active ones, what do you think you're going to do? Probably eat junk and sit around all day too.
On the other hand, if your friends are into healthy cooking and enjoy doing active things like going for bike rides or running for fun, you're probably going to join in and be more active as a result.
This may be tough at first, as we all have friends who don't share in our joy for exercise, and that's fine! You can try and encourage them to be healthy too with small changes to your usual activities—and don't be afraid to introduce yourself to new opportunities for meeting other run buds!
They prioritise their sleep.
If you think being fit is only about how often you work out, think again. One the top things active people do to stay healthy isn't exercise-based at all—it's getting enough sleep.
Not only does sleep give you the energy you need to work out consistently, but it also helps regulate your metabolism, repair your muscles, boost your athletic performance and more.
They don't try to be "perfect."
Most of us need to reward ourselves with a treat sometimes in order to keep our sanity. Aka, we aren't healthy eaters 100 percent of the time.
Giving yourself permission to enjoy your favourite treat now and then—whether it's something as simple as a latte or even a chocolate chip cookie—will ensure you don't feel bitter about your healthy diet. The same is true with your workouts—if you can tell your body is asking for a day off even when you hadn't planned on taking one, give yourself the rest your body needs and refuse to feel guilty because of it.
Seek balance in both your eating habits and your workouts, and you'll be a healthier and happier person as a result.

The Royal York Hotel undergoes renovation
The Victorian Grade II listed building is the home of the newly opened Chapter House bar while the Refectory Kitchen & Terrace will open on 12 November.
The Chapter House bar was designed by award-winning architects Michaelis Boyd, serving a selection of bar food which includes Black Pudding Sausage Roll wih HP Sauce, Fountains Gold Toastie with Branston, and Bridlington Scampi with Tartare Sauce. Also on the menu in the bar is a range of cocktails, spirtis, wines and craft ales. It also houses a wood-panelled games room with a half-size pool table, chess board tables, cards and board games.
The 126-cover Refectory Bar & Terrace will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, with head chef Nick Evans at the helm of the kitchen producing seasonal menus with local produce. It will serve a further 35-covers on an outdoor terrace.
Developer and London restaurateur, Des McDonald, said: "We set out to create seasonal dishes that are bursting with flavour and make use of the world-class quality of ingredients found across Yorkshire. We are proud to champion local produce on the Refectory menu."
The Royal York's Stephen Carter, who will oversee the development, said:"We are investing millions of pounds in The Royal York Hotel to restore it to its original glory whilst creating new restaurant and bar concepts that we believe will appeal equally to hotel guests and people who have made York their home.
"The city's world-class heritage attracts visitors from across the UK and around the world. We hope to put The Royal York Hotel 'back on the map' by working closely with local businesses, suppliers and cultural partners."
The investment will also include a refurbishment of the 159-bedrooms and suites, the hotel lobby and a new Garden Room. It will create up to 90 new jobs in the industry.

On July 29, 2008 the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) published long-awaited final regulations that change the way rents are adjusted on Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) properties when residents pay for their own utilities. NMHC led the industry effort for such a change since 2004. The changes go into effect immediately.
Tax credit rents include a utility allowance for resident-paid utilities; however, the methods the IRS has traditionally allowed owners to use to estimate resident utility costs tend to overestimate them. This, in turn, reduces the gross rent received by owners and threatens the financial viability of many LIHTC properties. The new regulations are a significant victory for affordable LIHTC owners, developers and investors.
In 2005, an NMHC/NAA-led coalition submitted a proposal to the IRS that would allow owners to use more accurate data to calculate resident-paid utilities.
IRS Regulations
The 2008 IRS regulations, which are largely based on a proposal submitted by an NMHC/NAA-led coalition, increase the sources of data owners can use to calculate resident-paid utilities. Under the new rules, owners can use:
- estimates provided by state LIHTC allocating agencies (typically state housing finance agencies);
- estimates produced by a new HUD utility modeling program; and;
- certified engineering studies to estimate utilities (such models can also include water and sewer costs).
Finally, the rules clarify how to handle estimates for properties in deregulated energy markets where multiple providers serve the community.
In addition to the procedures to set utility adjustments, NMHC secured a provision to allow properties to obtain a stabilized occupancy before rents are adjusted at newly developed properties. The provision sought by NMHC would require rents to remain unadjusted for a period of one year, or until the property has achieved 90 percent occupancy for 90 consecutive days, whichever comes first.
Submetering Clarification Secured
Without any prior notice or discussion, the IRS added language to the final regulations that fundamentally changes an owner's ability to submeter. Specifically, the regulations state that only utilities directly paid by the resident to the utility company can be included in the utility allowance.
NMHC immediately launched an effort challenging the IRS's interpretation and sought clarification. On May 5, 2009, the IRS issued guidance (Notice 2009-44) that confirms that utilities paid by a renter occupying a submetered unit that are based on actual consumption of that unit will count as resident-paid utilities under the utility allowance regulation.
The IRS notice further provides that, in the case of submetered utility costs:
- The rates charged to renters must not exceed the rates charged by the utility company to the building owner (or their agents).
- An administrative fee (not to exceed $5 per month unless otherwise provided by state law) charged to renters by the building owner (or their agents) will not be considered gross rent for purposes of the LIHTC rules.
- Sewage costs included in a combined water and sewage bill that are based on the resident's actual water consumption determined with a sub-metering system are likewise treated as paid directly by the resident.

8.6 miles from work/rio grande. sun and temps in the upper 30's. better make the most of this tame winter weather!
so the past couple of days i have had to run really easy paced miles because of an old hamstring injury (water skiing, 25 years ago!) that decided to flare up yesterday after over a year of not causing me any trouble. but as with everything else that happens to me in my life, good and bad, i can only assume that this has occurred to work for my ultimate benefit. maybe these super slow miles are exactly what my body needs right now.
WT 59.9 miles
10.2 miles / easy pace, from work. half on the roads, half on the H.S. track. awesome spring weather! hamstring much less of an issue today. still inhibits range of motion, but after a few miles there was little to no pain. 9:10 avg.

What is a Hydraulic Accumulator?
Accumulators regulate the fluid levels, pressure and viscosity in the system, ensuring the correct volume of fluid is working at the correct pressure at all times. Without this kind of regulation, pressure levels could be lost leading to an unacceptable fluctuation in power. Without the correct accumulator installed in your hydraulic system, you are exposing your system to unnecessary damage and failure.
Accumulator Types
Primarily, accumulators are available in bladder, diaphragm, piston and membrane models, each able to complete a dedicated task within the hydraulic system. Based on the application, they can be used to store and conserve system energy, dampening hydraulic fluid pulsation, and aiding in fluid pressure surge alleviation. The function is directly used to reduce the likelihood of loss of control of the flow of fluids within the hydraulic system.

A friend tells me the Olympics are over. I'm going to have to take his word for it. If it's true, this is good news. Now MSNBC can go back to airing its compelling shows on true crime and politics and sometimes a blending of the two.
Contrary to what the panic button within you might be screaming, the Kansas University basketball season is not over. Saturday's debacle was an unsightly execution, even by Texas standards, but the Jayhawks will come back to life the way they did when they read their obituaries after starting the season 3-4. They responded to that by going 17-2 to earn a No. 16 ranking in the Associated Press poll, the only one that matters.
They'll drop a few notches after looking so overmatched in the 80-55 loss to a Texas team that had defeated projected No. 1 seeds Villanova and Memphis and appears bound for a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
So where does that leave KU as far as a likely seeding? Fortunately, those in the know seem convinced the tournament-selection committee is no longer as enamored of the bad RPI computer ranking (found at kenpom.com) as it was several years ago.
Surely, the Jayhawks' 42 RPI doesn't mean they are in danger of getting a No. 9 seed. Unfortunately, the selection committee does not put any stock in the superior Sagarin computer rankings carried by USA Today.
In that, KU is ranked 17th, which translates to the best No. 5 seed.
Sagarin also computes an even better indicator it calls "pure points" and accurately boasts the system is the "best single predictor of future games." It uses victory margins, not just strength of schedule. Even after losing to Texas by 25 points, Kansas remains sixth in the nation in that ranking.
A local math whiz e-mails that last year he filled out his bracket by advancing the team ranked higher in the "pure points" column and won the office pool.
Try winning an office pool by advancing the team with the higher RPI. Better yet, just donate your money to charity. It's time for the RPI to RIP. Consider what teams rank ahead of KU in the RPI: 23. George Mason; 25. Wichita State; 31. Northern Iowa; 32. Creighton; 36. UNC Wilmington; 37. Hofstra; 38. Bucknell; 39. Air Force; 40. Southern Illinois; 41. Kentucky.
Pretty ridiculous, huh?
The only teams, pardon me, schools, (the NCAA prefers this terminology, and don't forget to call the tourney participants "student athletes," instead of "players") that rank ahead of KU in the pure points system: 1. Duke; 2. UConn; 3. Texas; 4. Villanova; 5. Memphis.
Now that's more like it.
Let's suppose KU wins its final two regular-season games and two more, including one over Oklahoma, to get to the finals of the Big 12 tourney and loses to Texas. The Jayhawks would have an 8-2 record in their final 10 games, a 6-5 mark against teams in the RPI top 50 and a 9-6 road/neutral record. Its marquee victories would be a pair against Oklahoma. Its worst losses, by RPI standards, would be at Missouri (130) and at home to Kansas State (103).
The Jayhawks would be considered a hot team, especially if they gave the Longhorns a game the next time, and likely would be seeded 4 or 5, perhaps setting up a second-round showdown with North Carolina.
If Texas wouldn't have shot 85% (it seemed like) and Brandon Rush would've scored more than 3 points. We would've had a chance.
Texas had one of its best games of the season and they had the advantage of being at home.
Unfortunately KU probably had one of their worst games and from my perspective it wasn't because of UT, the Hawks put themselves out of the game. Not being able to hit open shots from the outside against the zone tends to make it a long night.
WTF is up with us hitting players on the night of their best game ever? Remember that first dreaded Mizzu game? (I am sorry to even bring it up) Gardner scored 40 points that night! And in this game both Abrams and Buckman doubled their averages. With that and Brandon pretty much staying in Lawrence we didn't have much of a chance. No matter how hard Julian worked.
However, I do wonder now what will happen with Texas. Have they peaked? One can only hope
BTW go Julian!
We had the misfortune to play Texas after a loss to OSU, and a near loss at K-State. They had to make a show at home. Yes, we beat ourselves, but we had some help with the striped shirt men. Buckman can not make that many steals without a few fouls (see K-State game). But that was probably Texas' best game in the last 2 months.
Even though it was a loss, it was better to have it now, than in late March. We are going to the tournament. Let's make sure we win all of those.

So Artful Challenges. The image was cut out from one provided - from a dress pattern cover - and I printed the dress onto silver and cut that out and paper pieced. Unfortunately, I don't think you can tell it's siver in the photo! The photographer stamp is by Ken Brown Stamps.
I thought I'd make this a thank you card as, hopefully, I'll be needing some of these soon! So I'd also like to enter it for the Thank You challenge at Sugar Creek Hollow.

I've had the new Sleek i-Divine palette a little while now. I've been using it but I've not had chance to sit down and get my review written.
If you follow me on Instagram, you'll have seen that a few weeks ago I had a mini Sleek haul from Boots, taking complete advantage of their 2 for £12 offer.
I got the Goodnight Sweetheart i-Divine palette, the All Night Long i-Divine palette, Dip It Eyeliner, Matte Me in 'Old Hollywood'.
I'll concentrate on the Goodnight Sweetheart palette for today.
Top row, L-R: Seduction, Velvet Wrap, Romance, Lingerie, Dusk, L.O.V.E.
Bottom row L-R: By The Fireside, Hold Me Tight, Sweet Dreams, Love is in the Air, Snuggle, Sleeping Beauty
*It's worth noting the top right colour is more pink and less violet than the photo depicts, I'm not sure why because all of the other colours are true to life.
The palette is a gorgeous mix of rich, vintage inspired colours in a mixture of matte, slight shimmer and extreme shimmer textures.
The palette is reminiscent of the velvety tones found in paintings from the Romantic period, and can create a dramatic look for even a make up novice.
What I love about make-up from Sleek is that the texture feels luxurious but the price tag eminently affordable, meaning even slummy mummies like me can look like I lead a glamorous lifestyle.
I used 'Love is in the Air' from the middle of the lid, outwards towards my temples, 'L.O.V.E.' from the centre inwards (towards the nose) and used a brush to blend in the middle for the gradual darkening effect. For the socket I blended some 'Velvet Wrap' then the innermost part of the lid I used 'Lingerie' to lighten the part of the lids nearest my nose. Finally, with a brush I used 'Lingerie' again as a highlighter directly under my brow arch then finished with a light dusting of the same colour to give an extra bit of sparkle. I had to retouch my eyeliner (listed above) because I'm not a neat applicator, and finished the look with two coats of mascara.

A really good thing to remember when you are establishing and considering maintaining a relationship is to keep the communication channels wide open.
Although there are many times when your loved one will anticipate what you want and you them, there are also many times when we miss the point. The getting it is fine; the missing can skew and damage the connection.
Once we lose connection there are a myriad things up for grabs. Misinterpreting the other's actions or words can lead you into a quagmire.
When you see the possibility of this it is wise to sit down and have a deep and meaningful conversation about what you both mean to each other.

Album: Infesstisumam
Artist: Ghost B.C.
Label: Loma Vista Recordings
Released: April 9th, 2013
As most of you know I am a big heavy metal fan, I love all forms but some bands I could care less about the lyrical content as long as the music is good. I am not religious, I am an Apatheist which is the disregard for the belief nor the disbelief in a creator deity, essentially Agnosticism with a more pronounced "Don't give a flying fuck" point as there are more important issues in the world today. I tend to be pretty open, I love mythology and stories about ancient aliens and stuff like that so my music usually has bands that write about those topics on top of fantasy, love, life, nature, politics etc. I tend to avoid religious bands on both spectrums Evil/Good stuff as I really don't care, dont get me wrong religion has given us great music, art, stories and culture but it can also be a heavily dangerous thing, look at things like the Crusades, the Inquisition, Jihads et all to get my point. Now and then though there are a band that create such enjoyably kick ass music that I overlook the lyrics just for the music.
Ghost B.C. as they are marketed in the U.S. released their first album Opus Eponymus back in 2010 under the name Ghost, the album sent waves in the metal underground community for their live shows, lyrics and the music they play. Ghost B.C. (they claim the B.C. is silent so its just said as Ghost) play a heavily proto form of metal, now im assuming a lot of you have heard Blue Oyster Cult so imagine their music with a lot of organs and carnival music, now have the band wear robs and masks on stage with their singer Papa Emeritus II dressed as a satanic Pope, singing about Satan behind that you get the bands image. Come to 2013 where the band release their second full length album on a major record label Loma Vista Recordings (A sub-label of Universal Music Group) and it sends even more waves, now take into effect the band also managed to gain a spot at Coachella and the image takes off.
(I will anglicize the names of the latin tracks for meaning)
The music overall is a catchy rocky-pop metal outing, very 70's prog rock in aspect. The guitars have that 70's fuzzy sound, there are a lot of keyboards and organs, the vocalist has great pitch and the drumming is...fucking great to be honest. The album kicks off with the near 2 minute opening track Infesstisumam (Most Hostile), the first 30 seconds or so are just a church choir singing in latin about Satan and Hell then it kicks into a rocking track for the remainder. You know what you are in for after this for another 46 minutes, Infesstisumam leads right into Per Aspera ad Inferni (Through the Rough To the Grave) and kicks it off with a simple guitar riff for the initial 9 seconds then those drums and bass kick right in. The track has a very rocking feel to it, and Papa Emeritus II has one of the cleanest voices I have heard, its really soothing, and the lyrics are catchy as all hell. The next track, which was also the lead single off of the album, Secular Haze, kicks off with carnival music then the band fully catches up. Now it may have just been me but the opening guitar riff for Secular Haze reminded me of Opeth's The Drapery Falls in its execution so it threw me off quite a bit. After about a minute Papa begins singing, the chorus is catchy as all hell but other than that it is actually a weak track overall the drumming though is fan-fucking-tastic.
Jigolo Har Megiddo is the most flat out rock track of the album, and probably the best on here performance wise. The verses are catchy, the keyboards don't overpower the guitars and the drums and bass fill out the overall greatly. The chorus is hooky and short, and the guitar solo is REALLY freaking melodic, I was humming it as I was listening to it. After this we are followed with a two part song called Ghuleh/Zombie Queen, the first half of the song is a really soft piano led fare that reminded me a lot of some jazz acts, the second song is much more rocking and it threw me off at first but also became one of the strongest tracks on the album. Year Zero begins the first minute chanting various demon names then kicks into the verse, this song is atypical satanic song as the song is about the weakness of mankind and it will burn once the devil comes forth, the chorus is heavy and catchy so really listen to this one for that and skip it, this is the point of the album I skipped songs because I knew of what they were due to the song, Year Zero threw me off about that, it was also the second single off the album. After Year Zero we have Body and Blood, for the most part its a harmless song, its really a zombie song in essence but with the simple vocal hooks, the easy to remember verses and the really good chorus its again a really strong song, this one I sing as I love the chorus a lot.
Idolatrine is a mid-tempo rocker, the guitars are hidden beneath the keyboards and drums so its not really a stand out track, the second half of the song though is far better than the first half but its a bit boring, on this though you can hear some middle-eastern sounds in the music. I skipped Depth of Satan's Eyes due to the title and as I looked the lyrics up I got what I assumed so listen if you want. The technical final track on the album (the limited editions feature a cover of Abba's I Am a Marionette which is actually VERY fucking good, and a original song called La Mantra Mori which is roughly translated as The Death Chant but ill end with the regular end track) is Monstrance Clock. This one is actually a really good song, the songs rhythm has a very movement based feel to it, like its meant to be danced, could be me but it could be a DANCER HUH!? Nevermind. Anyway...
It's obvious Ghost B.C. play a style they like and write about Evil, Darkness and Satan. They have stated that it has been the intention to create really evil music with a pop style to throw people off when they realize that catchy hook they were singing was about the devil, if that was the bands true intention well fuck me it works. The gimmicks the band does though are a bit wearing, the main one is the hidden identities, all the actual musicians in the band are refered to as A Nameless Ghould and are given Alchemical symbols to differentiate them, Papa Emeritus is the only one who uses a name and even then "No One" knows who he is, its actually kind of an open secret on who he is though, and its surprising and is not. In Sweden where the band hail from there is a group for performing artists (bands, theater, etc.) called the Swedish Performing Right's Society which gives credit for writers and performers, all the bands lyrics are written by Tobias Forge, who under the Mary Goore name is also the founder of Swedish Death Metal legends Repugnant where he was vocalist and guitarist, but also had a alternative rock band called Subvision where he was vocals and guitars and his clean singing is IDENTICAL to Papa's. As the Society needs a real name behind a psuedonym Tobias publish the song and lyrics for Ghost B.C. under A Ghoul Writer. Repugnant has been on hold since 2010 when Opus Eponymous was released and Tobias has not had any real interviews to immediate knowledge.
Overall Infesstisumam is a solid Heavy Rock album, the drumming and vocals are among the most stand out of the music. Papa/Tobias has such a clean and solid vocal ability that its hard to remember what he's singing about, the issues that plague the album though is really the satanic aspects of it, I respect artistic integrity and wanton desire but whats the thing about it? Whats great about darkness, death and evil? Who knows, maybe its the taboo aspect of it, Anton LeVay spoke that his idea of Satanism was really about the independant nature of man, so maybe thats why its mankind being independant of the creator. But Humanism is that, its all the morals of religion but none of the bullshit so I have to deduct points on the superflous lyrical ideas, ive listened to death metal so I am used to songs about blood, gore, darkness, death but through that I also get politics, social issues and others so its not just the darkness about it, its about getting a message out that the world is wrong but there is still good in it.
The overall score I'll give Infesstisumam is an 8.5/10, the reasons are that the keyboards and drums overpower the guitars due to the fuzzy sound, the oft repeatable patterns in different songs and the lyrics but overall the album is solid Pop Metal, the darkness about it is what I love best though as the lyrics just throw you off if you sing them to yourself due to the catchy as hell vocal and chorus hooks, this is a reccommended pick up for any music fan, just turn your filter on and get rid of the satanic bullshit in life

Case Review: Tennessee Dog Bite Law
The Tennessee Court of Appeals recently interpreted the Tennessee dog bite law, T.C.A. 44-8-413, in Moore v. Gaut, __ S.W.3d __, 2015, No. E2015-00340-COA-R3-CV, (Tenn. Ct. App., filed December 30, 2015). The Court noted that the statute, enacted in 2007, had not previously been the subject of an appellate review. The case, originating in Knox County, also involved an application of an exception to the general law in Tennessee that dogs do not get one-free-bite.
In November 2012, Plaintiff went to the Defendant's residence to service his satellite dish whereupon he encountered the Defendant's dog, a Great Dane, in the back yard. Plaintiff contended that the Defendant's father approached him and requested the Plaintiff "introduce himself" to the dog. Plaintiff pled that "upon approaching the dog, the dog jumped up and bit the Plaintiff" in the face. Plaintiff filed a law suit in March 2013 which the Defendant answered denying liability. Defendant also filed a motion for summary judgment with his affidavit in support of his motion stating, among other things, "my dog has never bitten or attacked anyone." Apparently, Plaintiff did not rebut Defendant's assertion that his dog was not vicious or aggressive in his response to Defendant's motion.
The Plaintiff had another theory of liability that the trial court called the "big dog exception." Plaintiff's theory was that a Great Dane is a large dog so the Defendant should have known the dog was dangerous due to the dog's size. The trial court granted Defendant's motion for summary judgment finding that there was no evidence the dog had a history of viciousness or the dog's mere size was evidence that the dog was dangerous.
On appeal, Plaintiff renewed his two unsuccessful arguments from the trial court. The Court of Appeals first discussed the applicable summary judgment standard in light of the recent ruling by the Tennessee Supreme Court in Rye v. Women's Care Ctr. Of Memphis, MPLLC, __ S.W.3d __, 2015 WL 6457768 (Tenn., filed October 26, 2015). The Court found that there was sufficient evidence to uphold dismissal of Plaintiff's complaint at the summary judgment stage of the lawsuit.
The Court then discussed the extensive history of common law principles governing dog bite cases in Tennessee starting in 1914. The general rule at common law regarding a dog owner's liability for a dog bite or attack was that an owner was not liable for a dog bite unless there was evidence that the owner knew or should have known of the vicious nature or aggressive behavior of the dog. In other words, the dog got one-free-bite as only the second (and subsequent) bites would hold the owner liable for damages to the victim. The Court noted that appellate decisions regarding dog bite cases have continually upheld this principle. (The enactment of the dog bite statute in 2007, however, changed the law significantly as discussed below.)
Notably, the Court cited a 1964 case in which "the Supreme Court observed that a dog's playfulness or mischievousness can be a "dangerous propensity" in addition to a "vicious" temperament." Moore citing Alex v. Armstrong, 385 S.W.2d 110, 114-115 (Tenn. 1964). (Emphasis supplied by this author.) In short, a dog need not bite a victim for a tort action to arise. It appears a "playful" dog that merely knocks a victim to the ground in an effort to be friendly, but, nevertheless causes injury to the victim may subject the owner to liability.
A key distinction in Moore, however, was the Plaintiff received his injuries on the Defendant's residential property. Under these circumstances, a major exception to the dog bite law - sometimes called the 'residential exception' – comes into play. T.C.A. 44-8-413(c)(1). The statute provides some limited relief from civil liability for the dog owner when a dog bite occurs on residential, farm or other noncommercial property by the owner's dog, to wit:
If a dog causes damage to a person while the person is on residential, farm or other noncommercial property, and the dog's owner is the owner of the property, or is on the property by permission of the owner or as a lawful tenant or lessee, in any civil action based upon such damages brought against the owner of the dog, the claimant shall be required to establish that the dog's owner knew or should have known of the dog's dangerous propensities. (Emphasis added.)
In short, the residential owner's dog does get one-free-bite if the facts fit within the parameters of the "residential exception." By the way, Tennessee is the only state that has a "residential exception" in its dog bite law.
The Court found that the residential exception applied to the facts of this case. It upheld the dismissal by the trial court finding "that Defendant by testifying in his affidavit that his dog never bit or attacked anyone before Plaintiff, has negated the element of knowledge or notice of the dog's dangerous propensity." Moore at pg. 9. As regards the Plaintiff's alternate argument that this Court should create a "big dog exception" to the dog bite law, the Court declined to acknowledge an exception "based solely on a dog's size or breed." Moore at pg 9. It appears, therefore, this Court is not inclined to identify any specific dog as a "dangerous breed" or as being dangerous or vicious as a matter of law. Whether the Court would label a dog as being a member of a "dangerous breed" under a different set of facts – such as a dog bite with serious injuries – remains to be seen.
Ultimately, the ruling in this case indicates that the Court of Appeals, in a case of first impression, approves of the Tennessee dog bite law, including the residential exception. The common law rule that "every dog gets one-free-bite" is no longer the law in Tennessee with the enactment of the dog bite law in 2007, i.e., dog owners are responsible for their dog's behavior. The notable exception is a situation in which a dog bite or attack occurs on the owner's property where the one-free-bite rule applies under certain circumstances.
And, a final observation -- the Defendant asked the Court for sanctions on the grounds the appeal was frivolous. The Court simply stated "we do not find this to be a frivolous appeal." Is the Court holding the door open for a change in the dog bite law or are they simply saying, "nice try – no harm, no foul?" Watch this space.

This Activity Page, aimed at Belknap Mill's younger members, currently tell the story about the Bedard family, who left Saint Perpetué in 1914, to work in the Belknap Mill:
Paul, Angelique and the rest of the Bedard family arrived nearly exhausted in Montreal. It was dinnertime, and they had been riding in the wagon since dawn. They had heard stories from relatives about Montreal, and they were excited to see the big city for the first time, what the city was like. The city was noisy and crowded. Some people were wearing fancy clothes.
Paul and Angelique were the oldest of their six children. They could take only what would fit in their suitcases. They carefully packed their favorite things.
The train station was huge and very beautiful. They walked with all their precious belongings to the Station Master's window. Father checked for their tickets, the departure track number and time of the next train to Laconia, NH. Mother gathered the six children and settled for the evening in two rows of polished wooden benches near their point of departure - Track Number 6. Mother gave out a dinner of bread and cheese that she had packed earlier in the day. The children savored each bite. They were hungry and tired. Paul and Angelique looked at a train schedule their father had given them. They were disappointed that they would be traveling at night and would be unable to see most of the scenery along the way. They were on their way to America and their new life.
Here is a copy of a train schedule that was given out at the Laconia Passenger Station in 1915. It tells the kind of train, time of departure, the direction traveling and the destination. It even gives Sunday's special schedule. To use a train schedule, you need to know this information:
You do not want to rush or miss your train.
This story was written by educator, Chris Lewis, with funding from the Institute of Museum & Library Services. It is loosely based on records of the LaPlante family, who moved from Sainte Perpétue to Franklin about 1903. The images are from the Morin Collection, Belknap Mill.

With a wedding as stunning as Kenna & Chewy's, I'd say a number of brides to be are going to be ducking down to the nearest pub if it means looking as laid back yet stunning as this. All they will need is a Carla Zampatti gown and some smart snaps from Glass Slipper Photography to pull it off! Read on to learn more about this adorable couple.
Tell us about the proposal.
The proposal was in Japan, while we were snowboarding. That is one of the things we love doing together, and it was such a nice way to start off our snowboarding holiday! It's also a good excuse to go to Japan for our anniversary!
What was the most unique or amazing thing about your wedding (or engagement)? (other than how awesome the bride and groom are)
Our wedding dance! We had a choreographed dance that we had only practised two or three times before the big day – there were lots of mistakes but no-one seemed to notice. It was a lot of fun!
What is special about your relationship? or how you met?
We met at Mount Buller; however we were friends for many years before actually getting together.
Any advice for future couples getting married?
When everyone tells you the day disappears– well it does. Cherish every moment, and don't stress about the little things – they don't matter in the end.
