Murali Vijay was dropped from the Indian side after he scored only 26 runs in four innings in the recently concluded Test series between India and England. The four innings included two ducks at Lord's at the hands of James Anderson.
Experts suggested that it could well be the end of Vijay's international career. The 34-year-old, however, has still got some hope after a magnificent ton in the English county cricket.
Making his debut for Essex, Vijay scored a hundred in the second innings helping his team register an eight-wicket win against Nottinghamshire. In the first innings of the match, Vijay scored 56 runs.
His ton helped his team chased down the target of 282 in the fourth innings.
Essex has two more games left in the County Championship's First Division and fans on Twitter are already asking for Vijay's comeback to the Indian Test side.
Here is how they reacted:
@cricketaakash ,murali vijay just scored a half century and a century in a county match,do u think he will be back in the test team against australia???— Prajjval Tripathi (@PrajjvalTripath) September 14, 2018
Don't know how to react to Murali Vijay's runs, now, in county cricket. One thing is for certain that when a stalwart tries to earn back his place at the Test level, it is always a good news for the quality of first-class cricket.— KASHISH (@crickashish217) September 13, 2018
Finally, Murali Vijay scored a century in England. #CountyChampionship— Dharmendra Pant (@DMPant) September 13, 2018
A Match winning knock (100) from Murali Vijay in his debut county match for @EssexCricket as they defeated @TrentBridge by 8 wickets . And he also became Essex's first debutant centurion since Hashim Amla in 2009 ???????? . pic.twitter.com/g0TJiXSn9G— Sharat Chandra Bhatt (@imsharatbhatt) September 13, 2018
Knock Knock @BCCI ! Murali Vijay surely has staked his claim at the Opening Slot!! https://t.co/hWPgKQrIOU— Chandler Bing (@SarcasmChamp) September 13, 2018
I would go with Murali Vijay in Australia and tell him you will play all 4 Test matches #MuraliVijay https://t.co/0DfkYbt1eG— Karan Patel (@patelkaran952) September 14, 2018
#Muralivijay caps off his debut for Essex with a century in the second innings. Vijay scored hundred to help his side chase down 282 in the fourth innings. This in addition to the 56 he already scored in the first innings. Brilliant performance #ENGvIND #BCCI— Giri Subramanian (@giri26) September 13, 2018
Meanwhile Murali Vijay scores a century while Playing for @EssexCricket . He shouldn't have been dropped. He showed the experience of the first two matches of the series, could have used that for the rest of the three matches.@vikrantgupta73— Umang Goswami (@Umangism) September 14, 2018
Fifty in the 1st inning century in the 2nd inning that's murali vijay for you????????— jitz03 (@jitzvijan03) September 13, 2018
Sad part is he was our main opener batsman but Virat didn't back him he dropped him after 3 tests ???????? pic.twitter.com/zfHS22skqQ
Murali Vijay playing brilliantly for Essex. Did India make a hasty call of dropping him after 2 Tests? India were bowled out under 150 in both innings at Lord's. #MuraliVijay #ENGvsIND— Giri Subramanian (@giri26) September 12, 2018
Glad to see Murali Vijay score 100 for Essex, always felt he hard done by by India and Shastri, I'd have had him open with Rahul even after early summer struggles whilst Dhawan can still barely score a test run. #ENGvIND— Harry Everett (@HarryEverett_14) September 13, 2018

5 Tips to Find an Effective USMLE Step 2 Tutor
Getting help from a USMLE Step 2 tutor is a practical way to increase your chances of acing the examination. However, it is crucial to find a tutor who will be able to provide you with adequate guidance and knowledge. Here are some tips to keep in mind when choosing a tutor:
- You must have the option to have either group or one-on-one sessions.
Different people have unique preferences when it comes to methods of learning. Some may learn best in a group setting, while some may find one-on-one sessions more beneficial. The best tutors should be able to accommodate you whether you want to study with a group or alone. There are tutors who offer a 30-day (60 hours) course consisting of one-on-one sessions, as well as 50-day (100 hours) course that involves teaching in a group. However, to make sure that every student in the group will be given due importance, look for a tutor who limits groups to 5-6 students.
- Check if you will provided with high-yield notes.
Notes that cover almost everything you need to know will save you from having to read tons of books. You can expect the best tutors to provide you with high-yield notes that will help you review much more conveniently.
- You may want to have the sessions online.
This will allow you to attend sessions no matter where you are in the world. The best online classes still make you feel as if you were sitting in a classroom.
- Look for a USMLE tutor who conducts regular assessments.
Periodical assessments and practice tests are important in helping you understand your strong and weak areas, as well as let you have an idea of how the actual test goes.
- You must have access to a huge collection of high-yield slides
Easily understandable slides, CT scans, X-ray, and MRI will help make your concepts very clear. An effective tutor can make you understand the basics better and will provide you with each and every concept so that you can learn them by heart.

Took a mini trip to the keys with Leisha's family the other weekend and by far it was the most spontaneous relaxing weekend ever. I caught my very first fish! With the help of bae.
We took a lil tour around the spot we were all chilling/ fishing at.
Check out our vlog 7 here: The Keys | vlog 7
At the end of our day, we all slept over in a 2 bed room apartment that belonged to one of Leisha's relatives.
The next day we took the late morning to ourselves and tried out a dining spot called Porky's Bayside!
Leisha and I both agree that their shrimp was the best we've ever tasted in so long.
I ordered conch fritters which were pretty good but not as good as the shrimp combo Leisha ordered!

Annapurna circuit trek is certainly one of the most favored treks in the world. To add the cherry on the top Annapurna circuit trek with Tilicho lake is the way to go.
This trek offers everything that you expect. This trek has the perfect combination of culture and natural beauty. This route grants the best scenic views and amazing people, making this trek stand out from the rest.
This trek starts from the district of Lamjung and moves to Manang and then finally takes us to Mustang. Another reason for the popularity of the trek is that the landscape during the entirety of the trek changes continuously.
The route goes from sub-tropical forests to alpine forests and then to barren and rocky deserts. During this trek, you will twice reach and cross the 5000 meters mark.
Once while getting to the Tilicho lake which is situated at the highest altitude. The other time would be while crossing the legendary Thorong-La- Pass which is at an altitude of 5416 meters.
This trek starts at Dharapani and ends when you reach Jomsom. As Tilicho lake does not fall under the Annapurna Circuit, we need to take a detour. This trek is certainly a challenging one as it falls under the difficulty level of strenuous. We will also witness the sight of mountains such as Annapurna, Manaslu, Himchuli, Dhaulagiri, Neelgiri and many others.
Other than the two highlights - Tilicho Lake and Thorong La Pass, this trek has a lot more to offer. The scenic walk from Dukurpokhari to Pisang and then to Manang will certainly blow your mind. After Manang, the journey will take you to higher altitudes and the highest when you reach Thorong La Pass. We then drop down to Muktinath and then to Jomsom which will be the last stop for our trek. The town of Muktinath is a great importance for the people of both the religions, Hinduism and Buddhism. Jomsom is a popular city which has an airport which connects this town to Pokhara.
The Annapurna Circuit trek with Tilicho lake has over the time become one of the most visited trekking routes in Nepal. The splendid landscape, the varying altitudes and lovely, this trek has it all.

first performed on June 15, 2012
525 W 120 St., New York, NY
performed three times in 2012
Adam Roper, Yu-Han Huang, A Ram Kim, Chien-Yu Peng, Erik Grathwohl, Joe Novak, Tom Gilmore, Regina Vorria, Danielle Thomsen
New York, NY
A live installation inspired by the classical Greek myth of King Tantalus. One at a time, spectators entered a building and were led down flights of stairs to its basement level. Arriving in a darkened room, spectators peered through a hole in a wall to view a man lying naked on his back. A fitted hood blinded the man's eyes. This anonymous figure was tightly bound to a wooden board placed within a shallow pool of water. A mouth gag and the low water level prevented the man from drinking. An enormous rock hung ominously above. Was the man aware of its presence? From the faint echoes of water dripping in the distance, the cavernous space seemed endless.
"Tantalus" challenged conventional definitions of theatre as distinct from installation and visual art. It was textless, without an identifiable beginning or end and was experienced by individuals rather than a communal audience. Yet there was a performer, a theatrical space, and an event to witness. Thematically, this work was an iconoclastic remnant of classical tragedy: a scene of suffering, without resolution.
"I saw Tantalus, who stood in a lake that reached his chin. He was dying to quench his thirst, but could never reach the water, for whenever the poor creature stooped to drink, it dried up and vanished" (Homer).
"He sat, a wicked man, among pleasant things, a rock hanging above, thinking he saw and seeing not" (Alcman).

The level of scholarship has been rising for some time in the field of Indian studies. Par ticularly important in this happy development has been the Civilization of the Ameri can Indian Series published by the University of Oklahoma Press. To celebrate their first 100 volumes they have chosen "Sweet Medicine" by Peter J. Powell. It was a significant choice, for this two‐volume set is certainly one of the most important works they have published in their series.
Red power was, and is, religion.
By Peter J. Powell Illustrated. 2 vol. 933 pp. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press. $25.
"Sweet Medicine" is a his tory of the Cheyenne (now di vided into northern and south ern groups in both Montana and Oklahoma) as seen through the religious life of the tribe. In using this viewpoint, Powell is able to illuminate the alliance between the Sioux and the Chey enne in the middle 1800's and to clarify the major events of Cheyenne history from the In dian's perspective. He thereby avoids the usual interpretation of Indian history, which views Indian tribes as merely react ing to white encroachment on their hunting grounds. The reader will appreciate the mass of new material that covers the early reservation period and the survival of Cheyenne cere monial life until the present day; few other books bother to comment on Indian life after the reservation era began. Powell has provided us with a wholly consistent understanding of the life of this tribe, from its appearance on the plains until last summer, a feat no where accomplished in exist ing literature on any Indian tribe.
A substantial number of books on Indians can be char acterized by picturing a pipe smoking author sitting far out on the hillside spinning tales of how it used to be to the delight of his readers who will never experience the reality behind his words—nor, unfor tunately, has he. "Sweet Medi cine" does not have this fatal defect. It is obviously written from within the tribe, and one wonders and marvels at the ability of the author to relate the history of the Cheyennes so completely without allowing his own viewpoint to intrude on his subject.
Mr. Deloria is the author of "Custer Died for Your Sins: An Indian Manifesto."
The only comparable book now in print is Frank Waters's "Book of the Hopi," which has achieved major prominence in the national Indian community as the book that binds tradi tional Indians of all tribes into a common fellowship. Like the Waters book, "Sweet Medi cine" relates the religious his tory of the people as they un derstand it without constant and annoying remarks aside in an effort to justify Indian re ligion to the non‐Indian read er. It thus has a substantial in tegrity unto itself as all truly religious books must have.Continue reading the main story
The author, Peter Powell, is well‐known among Indian peo ple. He spends every summer among the Cheyenne in eastern Montana and has participated in most of the major religious ceremonies of the plains tribes. In this respect he is a cut above the scholarly hacks who infest Indian reservations in the summertime to spy on the quaint Indian religious cere monies. Powell participates fully as a member of the re ligion, thus making "Sweet Medicine" a valid exposition of a particular Indian religion in the same manner as the ear ly Christian writers were ex positors of their beliefs.
The crowning glory of the two‐volume set is the wealth of photographs illustrating the work. The average book on In dians is illustrated only be cause the author wishes us to acknowledge his ability to catch an aborigine unawares. They rarely indicate more than the fact that the author has visited, or has a friend who has visited, a certain reserva tion. In many instances the il lustrations are taken from Government files indicating that the author has seen what he has been asked to see. "Sweet Medicine" is more pre cisely illustrated. By following the photographs one can fol low the entire ceremonial life of the tribe. No photograph is extraneous to the thesis and development of the book.
With younger Indians al ready talking of new scholarly "action theologies" to replace sterile, community‐development schemes cooked up by liberal sympathizers, this book may, and in the opinion of this re viewer will, dominate much of the thinking of Indian nation alists for the next decade. What is additionally important is that Peter Powell spends a substantial amount of his time with the Indian nationalists talking their language and hav ing them talk his language. The book, therefore, cannot be di vorced from the blossoming red‐power movement in its re ligious orientation toward tra tribal forms.
The importance of this book for the non‐Indian reader is that it illuminates the contem porary Indian movement, spe cifically "What Indians want," as few of the many knowledge able exposés of the Bureau of Indian Affairs or essays by na tional magazines do. The stub born refusal of Indian tribes to melt into the American main stream can be understood in the religious history of the Cheyennes as it can also be seen in Iroquois nationalism, the Sioux sun dance and the Hopi ceremonials.
The question that this book raises for its author and con temporary America is whether Christianity influences its soci ety as well as the religion of Maheo does the Cheyenne. Without a religious foundation no society can long survive. Read "Sweet Medicine" and consider its message. If you find that Christianity has the same effect on your neighbor hood, you are in good shape. If it doesn't you should reread Powell's book and hope for the best.Continue reading the main story

Jordi Tresserras, UNESCO Network 'Culture, tourism and development'
Jordi Tresserras, who has a PhD in geography and history, is a researcher, academic, and policy advisor in the field of cultural tourism, cultural heritage, development and management. He is director of LABPATC, the Lab for Heritage, Creativity and Cultural Tourism, in Barcelona. He is also an associate professor at the University of Barcelona and a member of the UNESCO Chair and the UNITWIN UNESCO Network 'Culture, tourism and development' of the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. He has been a visiting professor at New York University (2001), the University of Cádiz (2009) and Universidad Andina Simón Bolivar (2010). He is currently UNESCO consultant for heritage management and sustainable tourism.
At the Iconic Houses Conference in Barcelona on 25 November, Jordi Tresseras will talk about UNESCO's conventions and 20th-century domestic architecture, focusing on conservation, management and sustainable development.
Tell us about your work with significant houses
My fascination with visiting significant houses originated with my grandfather, who loved Barcelona's unique buildings. One of my first jobs when I finished my studies in the 1990s was to participate in an inventory of industrial and contemporary heritage in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, including its most important houses. Currently, one of my research areas is management plans and tourism activities in houses with international heritage labels, included on UNESCO's World Heritage List, or on its tentative list or in its thematic cultural routes. In this context, I was the evaluator of the Réseau Art Nouveau Network when it obtained its designation as a European Cultural Route of the Council of Europe.
Do you have a favourite house?
Casa Milà is my favourite house. Casa Milà, or as it should be known Casa Milà-Segimon, in Barcelona. This house is unique and expresses all of Gaudi's knowledge of domestic architecture, engineering and design. The impact and significance of the building for the city and its visitors continues to be very evident. Gaudí's spirit is reflected in every detail of the work. It was one of the first buildings included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, together with Park Güell and Palau Güell in 1984, the series expressing the story of Gaudí's creative genius. In 2005, this group of Gaudí's buildings was extended with another four buildings. People from Barcelona have always called the house La Pedrera, which means the quarry, and they still do. It's also very interesting how the residents' history, which has been recovered thanks to detailed research, reveals the significance of the living heritage in domestic architecture.
What's the biggest challenge your organisation faces right now?
UNESCO is working towards a transversal vision of current conventions in culture. Initiatives like the UNESCO World Heritage List and UNESCO Cities of Design (included in the UNESCO Network of Creative Cities) reinforce the position of 20th and 21st-century iconic houses.
What do you hope will emerge from the upcoming Iconic Houses conference in Barcelona?
As well as sharing experiences and best practices, I hope that this conference can create synergies which will involve all the key stakeholders in the network - the owners and managers of significant houses, policy makers, international organisations and others – in designing a common map to shape the future.
What 21st-century home deserves to be an Iconic House of the future?
There are some very creative contemporary houses such as the Natural Ellipse House in Tokyo, from 2002, by Endoh and Ikeda, or the Krzywy Domek ('crooked little house') of 2004 by Szotyński and Zaleski in Sopot, Poland. I also love the architecture of Diego Villaseñor on the coast of Guerrero in Mexico, with its perfect combination of traditional materials and contemporary creativity.
Natural Ellipse House, Masaki Endoh and Masahiro Ikeda, Tokyo 2002

text: fotolli 0 Report post Posted April 26, 2017 Hi there! I am new to this forum, since I just bought a X-A3 and would like to use it in a studio environment with strobes. The problem I am facing ist that neither my Pocket Wizard Plus II nor an Elinchrom radio trigger will work with the camera. I´ve searched all sorts of related posts from x-a2 or x-m1 users and think I did not miss anything. I am using the camera in M- mode, have single frame mode selected, flash is forced or enabled, silent mode is turned off. As far as I could find out those might cause the flash or radio trigger not to work. Anything else I have missed? Thanks for any hints. Best regards, Oliver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Within the first month of use, FB-EYE helped us bust scams. We love this tool!" Chris Opperman, Protection Services Manager, Peermont Group .
Restaurants and Bars are an important and ever-increasing revenue generator for casinos. Like the gaming floor, cash transactions come hard and fast, presenting opportunities for employee theft and customer manipulation. Our data suggests the average casino is losing over $2 million per year on food and beverage (F&B), and the scary part is most casinos don't have any idea where and how it is occurring and who is doing it! Well, we do.
Surveillance needs tools to bust the many F&B scams and vulnerable transaction points where loss occurs. So, we set to work designing a solution. With feedback from customers and partners around the world, we are proud to present FB-EYE. Our solution takes the complex data stream of transactions and breaks analysis of it into three main processes:
Easy to use dashboards make it easier and simpler for surveillance teams and management to analyze staff and casino locations for suspicious activity. For an establishment with about 100 point of sale terminals in their restaurants, bars, floor transactions and redemption stations, the system initially flags 100s of suspicious transactions on a daily basis (for interesting stats read "How to deal with the food and beverage force"). Even including installation and training, FB-EYE should pay for itself inside of 6 months, obviously generating a huge ROI! Our customers love the simple pricing that is tied to the number of POS terminals (tiered for savings with higher volumes).

Guillermo Gaviria Correa
Glenn D Paige
June 23, 2003
The killing of Antioquia state Governor Guillermo Gaviria Correa on May 5, 2003, among ten hostages massacred by FARC guerrillas in reaction to a military rescue attempt, deprived Colombia and the world of a nonviolent political leader whose legacy is no less significant than those of Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.
The killing of Antioquia state Governor Guillermo Gaviria Correa on May 5, 2003, among ten hostages massacred by FARC guerrillas in reaction to a military rescue attempt, deprived Colombia and the world of a nonviolent political leader whose legacy is no less significant than those of Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.
He was born in Medellín in 1962, eldest son of a family prominent in politics, publishing and business. A mining management specialist by training at the Colorado School of Mines, after a decade of innovative public service including as Antioquian Secretary of Mines and General Director of the Colombian Roads Institute he campaigned for "A New Antioquia" in 2000 and was overwhelmingly elected Governor by 600,000 of six million people in Colombia's most populous state.
Gaviria's brief but dynamic governorship was profoundly rooted in the principles and practices of nonviolence derived from his Christian faith and serious study of the legacies of Gandhi and King. He explained, "Nonviolence was born with Jesus Christ; it was followed in the past century by Gandhi and Martin Luther King, and in this century it will be the light to guide the people of Antioquia."
He understood Colombia's violence to be the result of "imbalanced" political and socioeconomic conditions and saw participatory nonviolence as a way to bring about needed structural change. "Nonviolence is more than simply no aggression and is more than putting an end to terrorist attacks, kidnappings, threats, and blackmail. Nonviolence aims to break silence and rise up out of passiveness to build a balanced society of justice and social well-being." He wanted all Antioquians to be educated in nonviolence and trained in skills of putting it into practice.
Unlike Gandhi and King, Gaviria as Governor was able to combine the powers of government with those of popular political leadership. He engaged more than 5,000 leaders in a process to clarify Antioquia's priority problems and to suggest solutions for them. This produced a Strategic Plan of Action and a Congruent Peace Plan. Personally leading marches and caravans, together with First Lady Dr. Yolanda Pinto de Gaviria, he awakened citizen participation for implementing action.
The most dramatic of these was the thousand person March of Reconciliation and Solidarity to Caicedo, a mountain coffee growing town 85 miles from the capital Medellín, undertaken over five days from April 17 to 21, 2002. The March was intended to express solidarity with the FARC-threatened people of Caicedo who had declared themselves a nonviolent community and to seek reconciliation with the guerrillas. The Governor had ordered the police and army not to protect the March and not to rescue him or retaliate if he were kidnapped or killed. He had disagreed with Colombian President Andrés Pastrana's February 23 decision to terminate peace talks with the FARC.
On April 21, just short of Caicedo, the March was stopped by the FARC. The Governor embraced his wife, both knowing he might be kidnapped or killed, and went forward with three companions to talk with the guerrillas. Six hours later two returned with the news that the Governor and his Peace Commissioner, former defense minister Gilberto Echeverri Mejia, had been kidnapped. During his year in captivity, the Governor expressed in messages to his wife even greater commitment to nonviolence and said that when free he intended to resume the March to Caicedo.
Gaviria's tragic death on May 5, together with his Peace Commissioner and eight captive soldiers, resulted from the clash of two lethal ideologies. Righteous state violence and righteous revolutionary violence. If either side had understood his nonviolent message all ten would be alive.
Guillermo Gaviria's unique legacy is that a democratically elected political leader can courageously work for nonviolent social justice from the "top down." It is no less important than the courageous legacies of Gandhi and King seeking freedom and justice from the "bottom up." The convergence of these legacies offers the best hope for the survival and well-being of humanity. Transcending death, Gaviria's legacy continues to challenge Colombia and the world in the slogan of the March to Caicedo. " Sí…Hay un camino: la Noviolencia." Yes. . . There is a way: Nonviolence.
Glenn D. Paige is the author of Nonkilling Global Political Science (Xlibris 2002) and president of the Center for Global Nonviolence in Honolulu www.globalnonviolence.org For more on Gaviria's nonviolence see http://www.colombia-noviolencia.gov.co

Alzheimer's patients may soon be getting a new drug to help combat their disease.
Dimebon from the US drugmaker Medivation Inc, has been shown in studies to help patients with mild to moderate forms of Alzheimer's improve memory, language, awareness of time and place, and a more complex process called "praxis", which means having an idea and then actually putting it into practice after one year on the active drug as compared to those taking a placebo.
Patients began showing improvement after 12 weeks, and were sustained after six months and a year. Also, at the six month point, the patients on the drug showed significantly better function on all five aspects of the disease than they did at the start of the trial.
The drugmaker is planning to start a second trial soon, after which it will apply for US and European marketing approval in 2010, said the company in a press statement.
The drug is also being evaluated as a treatment for Huntington's disease.

Doughnut Time
September 18, 2017
Iconic Australian doughnut makers: Doughnut Time are launching in the UK next month and we were lucky enough to test some of their new flavours.
Doughnut Time kindly sent over a box of six mouth-watering delicious doughnuts. – and we were more than happy to sample each doughnut: the red velvet 'Sia Later', the oozing with nutella 'Love at First Sight', the toffee covered, custard-filled 'Creme de la Creme', the pink glazed, candy covered, sugar-heaven 'Go Shawty', the slightly healthier 'Matcha Made in Heaven' and another chocolate delight, 'Rough Around The Edges'.
The office was divided on which were the favourites. Our top picks included the (slightly) less sweet offering – 'Matcha Made in Heaven', closely followed by the rich in flavour 'Creme de la Creme'. The 'Go Shawty' received mixed reviews; too sugary for some but heaven in a doughnut for those with a sweet tooth. The only adjustment we'd make would be to the Red Velvet doughnut; where we'd love to taste a stronger cream cheese frosting.
Only two years ago Doughnut Time was operating from a tiny hole-in-the-wall store in Brisbane. Founded by hospitality entrepreneur Damian Griffiths in 2015, Doughnut Time has rapidly become a real Australian success story, and a benchmark for how a simple concept can capture the imagination of the public.
Doughnut Time is known for its tongue-in-cheek creations and has developed a cult following over in Oz. And after tasting the above, we understand why. Slightly larger in size than your usual doughnut (always good) and with far more original and creative ingredients than others; you're guaranteed to go back for more.
You'll have to wait until October to visit the new store in London; however you might spot a certain Doughnut Time taxi rolling around London during London Fashion. Doughnut Time is celebrating London Fashion Week by creating a range of doughnuts that pay homage to three legendary queens of the catwalk – Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Cara Delevingne. If you spot the taxi, make sure you try the three Catwalk Legends doughnuts.
The candy-covered 'Kate Floss' is glazed with pink icing, topped with candy floss and finished with a signature edible cigarette, while the sweet and tasty 'Cara-mel Delevingne' is decorated with a caramel glaze, black 'eyebrow' drizzle, gold leaf and gold sugar pearls. Completing the set is the 'Naomi Crumble', which has an apple-flavoured leopard-print glaze and is topped with biscuit crumble and a sugar paper mobile phone.
The doughnuts didn't last very long in this office, but the sugar high did. So while we wouldn't necessarily recommend eating the most-part of the six doughnuts in one go; we do advise that you go to and try a few as soon as the London store opens.
Doughnut Time will officially be opening the doors to it's first UK shop in Shaftesbury Avenue next month.

problem space
Instagram users are unable share content with followers because of a missing feature on the platform.
I designed and developed a mobile app to enable reposting of content so users could share content freely.
Role: UX Designer, Prototyper, Developer
Tools: Sketch, InvisionApp, XCode
Project duration: 3 months
stumbling upon non existent features
Guerilla Research
I conducted a quick research study on the different options for Instagram apps, which API's were accessible to developers, and how I could use these for my solution instead of coding everything from scratch. I also brainstormed ideas to determine which users I wanted to focus on.
Key Findings
Instagram is missing a critical feature on the platform
users actively use third party solutions to "hack" a repost solution
designers at Instagram refuse to be the next "tumblr" by offering repost feature
developing a solution within an existing framework
The next step in this process was create wireframes to show the developer exactly how the mobile app would work. I created the wireframes in Sketch and iterated on them a few times to simplify the flow. I also focused on the intro flow to encourage users who might want to repost, but didn't necessarily know how, to learn quickly.
brand recognition to improve app store discoverability
The inspiration for the name and the logo design came from the existing ecosystem of Instagram apps. The two sticks positioned at an angle are meant to look like relay sticks, which also lends itself to the purpose of the app, continuous relaying of content from any account.
Takeaways and reflection
The final result was a working app on the Apple store using a third iteration of wireframes, Instagram APIs, and a forked repo of an existing photo sharing program from Github. There were about 20-30 app installs per week and I was marketing the app on Instagram itself to get users to find the Apple Store link. The app was shut down after a few months because it no longer complied with Instagram's API requirements (and I was in grad school by that time so I kind of forgot about it). The app was also shipped before Instagram ads were open for public use so I didn't test out advertising the app to users to get them to download it. Perhaps I'll try this in the next iteration.

Side channel pumps, or liquid ring pumps as they are otherwise known, are somewhat of a hybrid between a positive displacement pump and a centrifugal pump. Upon start up, a side channel pump begins to operate like a positive displacement pump as it self primes, but soon begins to act like a centrifugal pump once the side channels become filled with fluid.
The liquid is drawn in and enters the impeller blades and the side channel which is open at just one point in the casing, rather than the entire circumference, which is where the term liquid ring comes from. As the star shaped impeller rotates, the pumped fluid moves back and forth several times between the blades of the impeller and the side channel. This creates a strong transfer of energy and results in an increase in pressure up to 10 times greater than that of centrifugal pump rotating at the same speed.
High pressure generation - As discussed above, the working principle of side channel pumps generates pressures up to 10 times the pressure generated by other pump types operating at the same speed. This makes it suitable for high pressure applications including those where the fluid needs to be pumped across long distances or through small pipework. The casing is also designed to withstand high pressures, and often liquids such as LPG are stored in a pressurised container to keep it in liquid form as at atmospheric pressure it becomes a gas. Water can also be pumped at temperatures above boiling point (100°C) providing the water is kept pressurised above atmospheric pressure.
High entrained gas capabilities – Liquid ring pumps are able to handle gas and vapour content without any interruption to the fluid flow or damage caused to the internals due to dry running. They are therefore often the choice for pumping liquids with up to 50% gas content, as other pump types such as centrifugal pumps have a very limited capacity.
Excellent self-priming – Side channel pumps are able to generate a high suction vacuum making them self-priming. They are therefore a suitable solution for applications with difficult suction conditions such as the emptying of a fuel tank. As the fluid collects in the outer area of the side channel and impeller blades, a liquid ring forms to facilitate the self-priming process.
Low NPSH requirements – Thanks to its axial and large diameter suction side flow path there is little flow disturbance, meaning that side channel pumps benefit from low pump speeds and ultimately lower Net Positive Suction Head requirements compared to other, higher speed pump types. This means that the amount of inlet pressure required for the pump to operate efficiently is less than that of a standard centrifugal pump.
Low risk of cavitation –When a liquid drops below its vapour pressure, the liquid vaporises which can create holes in the pump casing causing leaking and a reduction in output efficiency; this is the process of cavitation. Thanks to their lower pump speed, lower NPSH and ability to handle gas content, liquid ring pumps are less vulnerable to cavitation at variable vapour pressures compared to other pump designs.
Side channel pumps are ideal for low flow, high head applications involving low viscosity, clean fluids. Whilst suitable for a range of fluids from water to fuels to chemicals, because of the design's narrow tolerances, liquid ring pumps are not suitable for abrasive particles and solids.
The design benefits of the liquid ring pump make it a popular solution for applications where standard centrifugal pumps fail. Firstly, they are excellent solutions for the handling of high temperature fluids such as in boiler feed applications and chemicals such as ammonia that is pumped at close to boiling point or where liquids are kept under pressure to keep them in a liquid form. They also able to cope with fluids containing up to 50% gas such as Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) and condensation.
Side channel pumps' ability to self-prime combined with their low risk of cavitation makes them ideal for handling liquids near their vapour pressure safely and efficiently.
Applications that side channel pumps are typically used within include:

Nathan Coulter by Wendell Berry
Quite honestly, I didn't find this novel to have the same charm and wisdom as Hannah Coulter. It is a coming-of-age story that offers insights into family relationships and values in a different time and place, but I really felt that the protagonist is underdeveloped. Like Hannah, Nathan Coulter narrates his own story. But while Hannah shares many of her own thoughts and emotions, Nathan is not so transparent, and it seems that he fades into the background of the story while we discover more about his father, older brother Tom, and Uncle Burley from his observations and comments.
The relationships between the men in this multi-generational family could be case studies in themselves. Uncle Burley is quite the character, and we learn some of the antics of his younger years from a boy's perspective. Perhaps most interesting is Tom's growing distance, first from his brother, as Tom's interests shift as he matures, and then from his father, when a fight pushes him out the door to independence and manhood. Nathan doesn't share nearly so much about his own development - physical, emotional, or otherwise - though his attitudes and observations certainly grow in depth and maturity as his story progresses.
The ideas of place and "the Membership" are not as developed in this novel as in Hannah Coulter. Rather the simple ebb and flow of life, from mundane chores to carnival games to matters of life and death, form the theme and structure of the story. As Uncle Burley observes when an older woman of Port William dies one day and a baby is born to another family the next, ". . .that was just the way things were. They put one in and pull another one out" (35).
I'm sure I will return to Port William every so often in my reading journey, and I'd welcome any suggestions for which story to pick up next. Although I doubt that such a place and time could be wholly recreated in the twenty-first century, there are certainly insights to be gained and lessons to be learned by the people and place Berry has created in Port William.

I haven't read all the Port William books, but I would recommend you pick up *That Distant Land*, which is a collection of WB short stories (complete at the time of publication). It gives the backstory and context for many of the characters in his novels. There is a story about Burley Coulter that you will never forget.

My favorites thus far have been Jayber Crow and Andy Catlett. Try Andy Catlett as a counterpoint to Nathan Coulter. It's much brighter, but still is told from the viewpoint of a young boy growing up in the Port William area. Of course, Andy's boyhood is about a generation after Nathan's.
I'm trying to work my way through Berry's fiction and have about 4 more to go.

I found the over-arching theme of Nathan Coulter to be death. The first and last chapters deal with the death of a close relative, and everything from trees to barns to fish die in between. As this was my first encounter with Berry, I was rather stunned, but I'm glad I kept going. I've read Jayber Crow and Remembrance since then, and I look forward to reading many more!

Jayber Crow. I think I liked it and Hannah Coulter the best.

Nathan Coulter was my first (and recent) foray into WB's fiction. I wasn't hugely impressed either, but keeping in mind that this was his very first novel and the first intro to the PW membership makes me a bit more interested in reading on and seeing how the community develops and changes. I'm hoping that I grow to appreciate all his fiction more as a whole.

Thanks for the review...very helpful. I loved Hannah Coulter and have Jayber Crow on my shelf waiting to be read.

We had considered upgrading our flight to first class on the way here because we really needed leg room but, we didn't get our itineraries until the week before we left so we were i n a scramble to get it done. A very fun woman named Laura, donated her miles so we could upgrade and have an awesome flight!
Here's a link to her site so you can get to know her a bit: Von Hottie
Our flight from Phoenix to Washington D.C. was smooth. I was on standby for first class but got in and Joe was upgraded to Economy plus. We got to Washington and had a 3 hour delay because of the weather somewhere else. No problem though because we got to go into…the United Club! This is a fancy secret club all the rich people go in. Joe and I ate lunch and I told him, "Eat faster! I want to be in there as long as possible. This will never happen again!" Haha so we did. It was nice and quite. They had some light snacks and free drinks, t.v., and comfortable chairs. So we were pretty Ok. Then we finally got to fly and we were so pumped!!!! A. because we're going to the OLYMPICS and B. because we were in fancy class! We got food, drinks, endless water, and movies! We got to recline our seats until they were beds. It made all the difference in the world!
We chose to come out early so I could acclimate and get rid of all of the distractions I had at home. Flying first class was the best thing that could have happened. It made acclimating here so easy. After 3 days, I was good to go!
Our first day here was busy processing and getting our accreditation.
Processing was both fun and slightly frustrating. We got our head shots taken, got free gear, clothes, a watch, an Olympic ring, a couple of pairs of sunglasses, bags, a ginormous towel, and some other stuff. I love getting free things. When ever I get comments about how I have stains or holes in my clothing my response is usually, "I don't buy things." Haha half because I can't afford it and half because I hope to update my athletic wardrobe when I make a new team. (sometimes I get new stuff, and sometimes I don't)
It was slightly frustrating because I went in thinking that there wasn't going to be anything that fit properly. Surprisingly though, they had some Nike and some Ralph Lauren clothes up to their version of 4Xs. I spent a really long time trying clothes on and exchanging stuff. I was tired from the travel and hungry and I was cranky having to exhange so much clothes but, I ended up coming back with a lot of gear. I have a good mix of men's and women's clothes. The staff was super friendly. RL gave us a ton of Tshirt dresses. Not sure what to do with those, but, I'll make it work lol They gave us so much stuff, I have to send a box home. I'm sure glad, my mom and I both brought extra suit cases!
The next day was a light training day to get shake off the cob webs Within a weeks time, I'm pretty back to normal.
Yesterday was our off day, so we went to Tower Castle to take a tour and explore. We then ate lunch and headed back. The whole city is geared up for the games. There are Olympic Posters, window decals, driving lanes, etc all for us! So lovely. Tower castle was awesome. To walk in a place where so much history has happened was so flippin' cool. It was nice to see my coach get excited about something outside of athleticssn
Today was a heavy training day. I snatched up to 110 and clean and jerked 140. Today was particularly fun because of watching other athletes train in the facility I was at. We trained next to the Swedish handball team. Their plyo workout was nuts! I loved it. The Italian women's volleyball team came in. Their work out was dramatically different having their coaches loading their weights, picking the weights up for them, etc. Almost diva like. Maybe I need a little more of that? Loading your own weights is for chumps.
I am enjoying being surrounded by so many elite level, like minded people. Meeting new friends, seeing old ones, seeing my family, and celebrating all that is good in life is really a fun experience.

Several City of Cambridge swimmers recently competed at the second Sudbury Storms two day 'B' grade open gala. While swimmers were thin on the ground at last year's inaugural event, this year's gala was attended by large and enthusiastic groups of competitors and spectators alike.
Competing clubs came from as far afield as Norwich, Hoddesdon, Milton Keynes, Bracknell and Hillingdon. They were treated to a well-organised, friendly gala at a venue with clean, welcoming facilities.
The range of events, from 50m to 400m, ensured that all swimmers had the opportunity to compete at their preferred distances and strokes, and the excellent commentary was littered with references to the achievement of PBs - including a good number by Cambridge swimmers.
While the only trophies on offer were for 'Top Boy', 'Top Girl' and 'Top Visiting Club' (won by Stowmarket), the medals, which included gold and silver for Sarah Thompson and silver for Vicky Thompson, were substantial and well worth winning. Those swimmers exceeding the 'B' grade times were awarded speeding tickets. This was treated as a real achievement, and the certificates were laminated and included the name of the competitor and his/her club. They were presented, in special ceremonies, by dignitaries who included the local Mayor.
The meet was a resounding success, and a good time was had by all.

You control Eeeger, a very, very ticked-off Martian whose vacation to Pluto has been interrupted upon the news that his arch-enemies, Krelmac and Gentoo, are planning on taking over the solar system with an army of unstable alien clones.
Okay, look. Basically this game doesn't really have a story. Pong didn't have a story. Did it need to? Besides – Krelmac and Gentoo aren't even in this game. Yet.
Anyway, the game plays similar to old-school 2D shooters such as Space Invaders, Galaga and Intellivision's Astrosmash. However, Eeeger doesn't simply move left and right and shoot upward. Eeeger can also jump in order to avoid enemies and enemy fire, dive back to the ground in mid-jump, fire lightning bolts in any direction using the mouse, call down gigantic bolts of lightning from the sky, and use a lightning shield which can destroy anything that touches him.
When an enemy is killed, ten of its body parts (gibs) will fly all over the place. A counter (the Gib-O-Meter™) will keep track of the amount of gibs currently onscreen at one time. When the game ends, the Gib-O-Meter's highest reading will be converted to a bonus!
Some enemies will drop coins and bonus items upon getting shot. These items can increase Eeeger's ability to run, jump, and dispatch his enemies. If he's lucky, he can even obtain armor, TNT plungers, and the ultimate weapon: the Can of Whoop Ass!
Click on the other links to see exactly who and what Eeeger is up against!!
