Many patients can have preconceived notions when it comes to wisdom teeth. Extracting these teeth tends to stir up anxiety in patients. To help quell that anxiety, here are some facts you may not know about wisdom teeth and extraction.
The mouth was designed for 28 teeth, but wisdom teeth served an important purpose. Our ancestor did not have dental hygiene, so they lost teeth when they were very young. Wisdom teeth allowed them to regain full oral functioning when other teeth were lost, but modern humans do not need these extra teeth.
Wisdom teeth can cause breath to become unpleasant. Wisdom teeth make tiny tears in the gums that trap food and bacteria. It festers in the mouth, so many Arlington Dental Associate patients notice halitosis – even after they have brushed their teeth.
These extra teeth can cause teeth to shift out of alignment and cause your smile to become imperfect. Teeth may become crowded and cause other issues, so at the first sign of a wisdom tooth growing it is recommended to get it removed.
Not very wisdom tooth will make it through the gums. Some teeth are impacted, or blocked, by either other teeth or the jawbone. This can be very painful for patients, causing them to seek dental care when the pain becomes unbearable.
Extracting wisdom teeth is not as bad as many people make it out to be. Your oral health and comfort are our top priority, so we use the best sedation methods to keep you comfortable during removal of teeth. Discomfort may be experienced after the surgery, but we outline methods to make your aftercare process smoother and less painful.
Do not suffer through the pain of having a wisdom tooth erupt from the gums or be impacted in the mouth. Visit Arlington Dental Associates for a consultation about your wisdom teeth and the dental options you have.

We all want to catch more fish!
One of the most effective ways to do that: present fish with one of their favorite foods.
Live minnows take all the guesswork of presentation out of fishing, and, instead, you spend more time fighting fish, and bring home more for the grill. Minnows are tricky, though. But learning how to hook minnows is easy and something every angler should learn.
Why You Should Fish with Minnows
Bass, trout, walleye, crappie, and pike are among the many fish that love snacking on minnows. Since minnows are natural prey, these fish don't give swallowing them whole a second thought.
You too will grow to become addicted to live minnows. The amount of fish these little home run hitters bring in is INSANE. While many anglers shy away from them because they are a pain to store, those who don't reap the rewards.
How to Store Minnows
You have to keep in mind that live minnows are just that: live. As such, you need to give provide them with oxygenated water that they can breathe in--unless you plan on fishing them fast. Even then, if you want them to be lively when you cast them out, you want to provide them with good water.
The proper setup for live minnows is a ten-gallon bucket filled with clean and dechlorinated water. Then run an aerator into the water just like you would a fish tank. Portable aerators are cheap, and a lot of minnow buckets come with them built in.
Also, don't overcrowd the bucket. You don't want the minnows to have to compete for oxygen.
How to Hook Minnows
There are three main ways to hook live minnows. With each of them, the minnow will behave differently in the water, and the hook will need to be set at different times with each too.
The key thing to remember is that minnows are fragile. You need to make sure to hook it right the first time, or you run the risk of killing the minnow.
1. Through its Back
When hooking a minnow through its back, the spot you're aiming for is right behind its dorsal fin. This method works best when you're fishing with a bobber and want to let the minnow swim around to attract fish.
A minnow hooked through the back will survive longer than one hooked through the lips. However, be careful not to damage its spine. If you pierce its spine, the minnow will be paralyzed, rendering it ineffective.
2. Through its Tail
To hook a minnow through its tail, insert the hook just at the end of its tail. This is best fished with no bobber and no weight and gives the minnow the most freedom to swim around.
You want to fish this when you're casting into a wooded area or by docks.
3. Through its Lips
If you want to cast the minnow out and retrieve it, or if you are going to be trolling with minnows, hooking through the lips is the way to go. Being hooked through the lips allows the minnow to swim naturally, even when being pulled.
To hook them, run the hook through the bottom lip and out through the top lip. You want the hook pointing up so the minnow can upright. Keep in mind, this method blocks water from entering their mouths, causing them to die faster than the other methods.
What's great about hooking through the lips, though, is when a fish attacks the minnow it will aim for the head. This gives you a better chance to set the hook!

Open FOIL NY Will Speed Up Transparency
New York state is creating a new website to make it easier for the public to get to state records.
Open FOIL NY is a centralized online location to file Freedom of Information Law requests with 59 New York state agencies and public authorities by giving the public a uniform method to submit requests for government records through a single website. In addition, the site provides an open-access records request webform that allows the requester to select multiple state agencies for a single records request. Prior to the launch of Open FOIL NY, there was no centralized location to obtain agency-specific information, no standardized form and the FOIL experience varied from state agency to state agency. State officials also plan to create a system that makes it easier for state officials to process FOIL requests faster, make it easier to collect and review agency records and allow officials to quickly identify records that are frequently requested and should be proactively considered to be released to the public. There is much about the system that is commendable, but we would argue that the majority of records should be released to the public automatically rather than relying on a computer algorithm to tell officials what they should consider making public.
State officials should also consider helping their local government counterparts create such a system. While there are some local residents who are curious about the inner workings of state government and the state's public agencies, there is likely more interest in local-level records. Creating a system like Open FOIL NY is largely outside the financial capability of local governments. If state officials are serious about transparency, they should find a way to standardize open records at all levels of government throughout the state.

Sick Day
I'm home sick! And I'm home sick with something banal!
When I woke up Saturday with a cold, I was actually excited. There've been so many obnoxious "what is WRONG with me?" "Is this a symptom of something extant or is it something new?" "What did my medicine DO to me?" in the last two years that having something whose symptoms I recognized completely, something that I understood what to do about, was more than a relief; I was cheerful!
Of course, on day 4 (maybe 6) of this, I am not so bright and excited, but hey, I have been taking naps and drinking lots of fluids and husband has been making me lots of tea. A nap in front of the fire is a pretty nice way to spend part of the day, especially with a cat asleep on my belly (That would be Merit, the one of our three who has really mastered sleeping-on-people).

Haunted House 38: Upset
First: A story featuring a male keeper and a female Kept.
Previous: Preparations
"It's weird," Mélanie mused, as they settled boxes of goods into the back of the wagon, the sunlight coming down through the trees in dappled waves.
"Leaving? Seeing the house in the daylight?" Jasper guessed.
"Something like that, yeah. Leaving and just- well, just thinking about just leaving to go to town, I guess."

Next: 36: Guests
"Are you sure you know how to hunt things that aren't people?"
Deline was teasing Carrone – mostly. They had been living in the cabin for four days, and she was beginning to get more on edge than she wanted to admit.
It was easy enough to settle in to a routine – gather and hunt in the morning, cook a big meal in the afternoon and settle in to bed in the evening. It was easy enough to pretend that they were just having a little rest stop along the way, getting to know each other. But Deline knew that they were hiding, and she knew that she had to get back to the capital, and she knew that with every day she didn't – with every day she didn't make it back, there was a chance that they wouldn't make it back, and if they didn't, her information died with her. And that wasn't acceptable.
So she was teasing Carrone for losing another deer. Continue reading
Bad Fight
Written to a prompt I found here.
Red wasn't supposed to be out on his own yet. He was supposed to be a sidekick. He was supposed to be following Blue around still, maybe cracking wise and maybe just mopping up the henchmen that got away.
But that wasn't what he'd signed up for. That wasn't what he'd been training until all hours of the night for, sneaking out of study hall for, spending every minute he could in the lab for. No. No, he was a meta, a shining new example of the Modern Superhero – that h Continue reading
Funerary Rites 41
The ride back was tense. Nobody spoke a whole lot, except Allayne, murmuring quietly over the wound in Erramun's back, pulling out the bullet and healing the muscle and sinew and skin. Ezer muttered at traffic, Chitter muttered at her cameras – including the tiny button camera and mic Senga had planted in the desk, including the one Erramun had planted on a pillar, including the clever little skimmer they'd managed to get on the guards' computer. Erramun was silent as his name.
Senga was steaming with anger and twitching with worry and said nothing at all. She held Erramun's hand, even though he obviously didn't need it, and the way that his fingers traced over the back of hers told her that he knew, too, that she needed it.
"There," Allayne breathed. They were nearly to the garage. "All better. Damn, are you telling me you don't have a Man of Steel Working in your repertoire?" Continue reading
This is written to a prompt I encountered on Pinterest from here.
We had never come up with a cure.
Instead, we had come up with ways to deal with it. I say we, but it was my grandparents and their parents who did most of that work.
The rest of us just learned what we had to do and got on with the work of rebuilding the world. By the time I was an adult, you could barely tell that there had been a world-scarring, population-destroying mega war in my grandparents' time.
And then, of course, the fucking aliens showed up.
They had spacefaring tech that we were only beginning to develop. They had weapons that were, frankly, amazing, and, from a biologist's point of view, also horrifying. They had ships parked in our atmosphere.
We had zombies. Continue reading
Hidden Mall 57: It's Dead, Jim
"'Via? Olly?" Abby moved to the other side of Olly. "What's – "
In the grey shadows of the mall, three translucent figures were staring back at them. Two of them were definitely her. The third she didn't recognize at first, a taller man with a gaunt face and protruding bones.
"Abby?" Olly whispered. "Abby, is that you?"
Abby hoped not. One of the two grey women was missing a good third of her throat. The other one had an axe settled in the middle of her chest. It looked—
It looked horrible. Continue reading
Month of Letters and Stationery!
I'm still doing LetterMo (and InCoWriMo)! As of today I have mailed out 22 letters/postcards/cards (with one ready to go in the mail), received 3 replies and one letter-not-a-reply, and drawn castles, maps, lava, clouds, and barns.
I've talked about the weather a lot, Ithaca, winter activities, and whatever else came to mind – including often the paper or card I was writing on.
And Friday and today, as a reward for finishing my work self-evaluation and then for getting the taxes done and sent, I bought a bunch of stationery. Continue reading

Hurricane Joaquin Threatens East Coast
The weather pattern is in massive transition right now, and Joaquin is caught in the middle of this huge change. This is one of the reasons why the track has already changed significantly in the past 24 hours.
The weather pattern is in massive transition right now, and Joaquin is caught in the middle of this huge change. This is one of the reasons why the track has already changed significantly in the past 24 hours.
Tropical Storm Joaquin, the tenth named storm of the season in the Atlantic Basin, has formed east of the Bahamas. This is forecast to strengthen slowly and eventually threaten the northeastern United States. The exact track and strength, as usual, is rather uncertain as it is only drifting around at the moment:
Good morning Weather2020 bloggers,
Welcome to the LRC Forecast Experience Blog. Something absolutely incredible is happening right now, and many of you know what it is. The new weather pattern is now beginning to evolve and the computer models have been […]
We will get back to the weather tomorrow as massive changes are taking place in the overall pattern. Let's dip into Astronomy tonight. A dazzling Super Moon Total Eclipse will be visible across much of the USA tonight.
The weather pattern couldn't be more boring right now, well, at least it seems that way. What do you think? Are you ready for the new LRC? We are still in the final days of LRC 2014-2015. We have identified the first week of October
We are now at the very tail end of this year's pattern and it couldn't be any more boring near KC. A storm, the remnants of Tropical Depression 16 has been spinning around the central plains for days now, and yet I haven't even seen one drop. I think we are all ready for a new pattern.
There have been many showers and thunderstorms and over eight inches of rain in spots, while others close by have not had even one drop of rain. This morning the circulation around the low is rather apparent in the swirl of rain around the center. A band of heavy thunderstorms extends all the way down to the Red River of Oklahoma and northwestern Texas.
The Autumn season began earlier this morning and it feels nothing like fall across much of the nation. A warm weather pattern has set up with the jet stream far to the north. We will look into this current pattern and begin with a look ahead to early next week's outlook for when the Kansas City Chiefs go north into Green Bay to try and beat the Packers at Lambeau Field. Over 80,000 fans will
Today is the last full day of summer as fall begins at 3:21 AM tonight. Massive changes are taking place in the weather pattern and at the same time we are still in the very tail end stage of the 2014-2015 LRC year. On this last day of summer the old pattern is still in place, but we will have to call it the transitionary time. Take a look at this interesting enhance water vapor satellite picture
El Niño is becoming quite strong. It will be a factor in this weather pattern that we are about to experience this winter. It is just one of the influences on something much bigger. The LRC! It is one big puzzle, and Weather2020 has been working on solving this big meteorological, scientific puzzle.

You must have heard of 'Patiala salwar', 'Patiala peg' traditional patiala jutti and turban. Yes, we are talking about some of the highly popular things about the Patiala city, which is situated in the culturally opulent city of Punjab. With its architectural prodigies and cultural legacy, Patiala is said to be a magnificent city where people are affable large-hearted and quite friendly. Among the various traditions of Patiala, Indian classical music is the most popular and who doesn't know about the Patiala Gharana that is well-known for its rich musical inheritance. Apart from music, this city of Punjab has also birthed some famous personalities pf today like cricketers Mohinder Amarnah and Navjot Singh Sidhu, actors Om Puri and Jimmy Shergill singer Harbhajan Mann. The famous astronaut, Rakesh Sharma was also born in this heritage city.
This famous sikh shrine is called 'Dukh Niwaran', which means 'eradicator of miseries'. Situated in Lehal, a small village in Patiala city, this shrine is known for its 'sarovar' (water tank) located inside the shrine. People of Patiala have great conviction in the sanctified water of sarovar, which is believed to have 'healing powers'. Sikh Guru used to sit in this shrine and in his memory, Raja Amar Singh of Patiala had laid out a beautiful garden inside the shrine. The place is now a preferred tourists place in Patiala.
Being a part of old Moti Bagh complex, this 'Place of Mirrors' known as Sheesh Mahal has an opulent ambiance that attracts lost of tourists. Several murals, created under the reign of Maharaja Narinder Singh, enhances the beauty of the palace. Artifacts and paintings from Kashmir, Punjab and Tibet are worth seeing here. Moreover, you can view 3200 amazing medals inside the palace, which had been bought from various countries for display. Sheesh Mahal is a museum ehere you can watch and appreciate exciting heritage stuff.
Moti Bagh palace in Patiala has now been transformed into a museum and National Sports Institute. An artificial lake adds to the beauty of the palace, which has a crossing bridge that hangs. The bridge reminiscent to the Haridwar's hanging 'Lakshman Jhoola'.
Built over 10 acres, The Quila Mubarak was built in the year 1763. It's a huge complex, which overlooks the walled city of Patiala. Quila Androon and Durbar Hall are the significant halls inside the Quila with large getaways. Inside the hall, the walls are adorned with ancient arms and armours comprising daggers and ancient swords. Almost all weapons belonged to Guru Gobind Singh except one customary sword that belonged to Nadir Shah. Twenty feet huge collection of chandeliers made up of Belgian glass is enough to radiate the interior of the Quila Mubarak.
Located in the northern side of old Patiala city, these gardens boasts off with expansive flora including rare sherbs, trees and flowers. In the middle of the Gardens, there is a huge marble-made statue of Maharaja Rajinder Singh. With the backdrop of beautiful colonial buildings, the Baradari gardens offer panoramic view of greenery that is the highlight of Patiala city.

Batch file scripting (cmd.exe is the process executed) does not allow for individually colored text/background.
The command console (cmd.exe) is just another Windows program and does allow for the standardized native Win32 API calls to individually color (both intense and non-intense) of foreground and background characters.
Strictly using the batch file language will only allow for coloring all of the characters at once (foreground or background).
Without using external programs: I believe there is one method that allows you to link against the DLLs and call them; but the hack's not worth mentioning here.

Windows 7 x64, Vista x64, 8.1 smartphone
Good afternoon,
I have written a batch file which works great!
However, I would like to colour several pieces of text within the batch file.
I have spent a LONG time researching this on Google and I am almost there.
This is what I have at the top of the code...
@echo off SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion for /F "tokens=1,2 delims=#" %%a in ('"prompt #$H#$E# & echo on & for %%b in (1) do rem"') do ( set "DEL=%%a" )
call :ColorText 0c " IMPORTANT - Numbers 2 blah blah." call :ColorText 0c " If you blah blah!" & set /p ".= " < nul echo.
:ColorText rem echo off <nul set /p ".=%DEL%" > "%~2" findstr /v /a:%1 /R "^$" "%~2" nul del "%~2" > nul 2>&1 GOTO :EOF
[1] If I put a colon [:] after Important, is doesn't work, hence the dash [-]?
[2] Why will it not show the exclamation [!] at the end of the line although it is there?
[3] Why will it not show the full stop [.] at the end of the line although it is there?
[4] Is there a way to split the call :ColorText 0c " IMPORTANT - Numbers 2 blah blah." over two lines so it makes it esaier to read and also lines up in the script with the code below it. I tried several options, all to no avail!
[5] As you see from the middle piece of code, the Numbers 2 and If you are not lined up, but they are in the consol!
[6] Why doesn't it put a blank row after even though there is a echo. after the text to be coloured, but it does if I use & set /p ".= " < nul end & echo..
[7] It will also not accept forward slash [/]!
Thanks in advance.

Ashley - Name Meaning
- Category: First Name Meanings
- Last Updated on April 24, 2012
- Written by admin
The original meaning of the name Ashley is to live in an ash grove. This nature based meaning is certain to appeal to those who want to be more connected to nature, or to those families who have a passion for the outdoors. With this name, a child can become more familiar with the outdoors as they grow up, feeling a special connection to the natural world around them.
A child that has been given the name of Ashley is also given the possibility of being someone who is able to connect with nature in meaningful ways. Whether this looks like a job that involves being outside or it looks like a devotion to caring for plants and animals, this is a child who will be someone who can understand the needs of the world around her.
This girl name of Ashley is a name that can also be shortened into Ash or Shley, helping to create a more fanciful tone. In taking on the name of Ash, the child may find they are more connected to what's going on in the world around them, even when they're miles from the nearest forest.
At the same time, the connection to nature can be challenging as no one person can change the way the world supports nature. Someone with the name of Ashley may find they are always working hard to save plants, for example, but they also need to remember they can call on others to help as well.

One of our dogs is overweight, according to the vet. About a month ago, she recommended we feed the dog with a "food puzzle", a toy that she has to move around to get food out of. Similar in concept to a piñata, but non-destructive. Anyway, after a month of her eating this way, we took her back for a checkup. The vet put her on the scale...

I get upset when I see YouTube videos or Facebook threads about how awful certain movies were, when I particularly loved those movies.
1. Ghostbusters (2016): This was the funniest thing ever. It was fully on the same level as the original Ghostbusters for sheer comedy, pacing, dramatic scenes, unexpected twists, wild and crazy events, and special effects. So many people who don't like the new version can't resist mentioning their dislike for women in the movie's lead roles. [Long section on incels left out, including my desired disposition for the same.] Would I have preferred a sequel to the original movie? No, they did that and it wasn't as good. Plus we got the real Winston Z back. GB2016 was a winner in my book.
2. The Lost World was a superb sequel to Jurassic Park, and Jurassic Park III was passable enough for a final movie in the trilogy. The three movies formed a coherent whole, with major plot threads weaving from movie to movie. They were greatly enjoyable. The leap from first movie to the two Jurassic World movies was too extreme; the new plots did not hold up as well as the earlier ones. (The volcano in the last movie was dumb.) Plus, Jeff Goldblum got some of the best lines ever in The Lost World, and the Barney the dinosaur sequence in Jurassic Park III was too funny.

I've been away from blogging for a good couple of weeks now, and physically away from my computer for around ten days. This has been spent in a landline-free, signal-free Breton valley near Guingamp. Every once in a while a journey to a nearby beach would put us in range of a mobile mast and I'd be able to twitter, but that was about it.
Relaxing though the lack of technology was, the French attitude to any kind of commerce still strikes me as woeful. Most shops—including several sorts of food store outside the hypermarkets—close from around 12.15–12.30 till 2.30pm, and are only then open till perhaps 5.30pm. Given that nobody except the boulangier opens before 9, we calculated that one tourist shop (which took things a stage further and remained closed every other day) managed 26 hours a week.
A family friend who had settled over there and was now working as an odd-job man mentioned that employment of staff in France was essentially a gravy train for the individual employee: if a company made someone redundant, they would have to pay them a living wage for twelve months or until they found a new job. Certainly French bureaucracy, which seems to have been grown under glass specifically for the purpose of employing more people, was evident in the system for looking round the Château de la Roche-Jagu: you couldn't buy your ticket on the door, and the doorman wouldn't even tell you the price; ticket purchases were made in a completely separate out-building; when you got there, they would tell you that the castle was currently full, also refuse to sell you a ticket, and ask you to wait half an hour. It looked suspiciously empty when you actually began your long-suffering attempts to merely buy the "product" on offer, and there were no guided tours that might account for an extra hundred or so people.
As a good socialist I can see the merits of protectionism. It prevents cross-border exploitation (such as happened recently with hiring non-union employees from abroad) and preserves local culture, artisanal methods and plenty of other aspects of daily life that might suffer if they had to justify themselves in terms of global market forces: decent pavements, libraries, shared spaces. But it's pretty clear that employment and commerce in France are in for a rude awakening: a country whose model of working life is based around obtaining a job as a sinecure, employing three people where two will more than suffice. I can't say I admire the Victorian-inspired, Anglo-Saxon model of hard work as a duty to be endured regardless of enjoyment of your job, but the French system feels like thumb-nosing hubris in the opposite direction, heading for its own internal crunch as population ages and exports and interbank lending all suffer in the recession.
Still. There's the sweet Brittany cider and filling galettes, and the lush, green hills and dales that make up the region's interior. There's the half-empty beaches—almost completely empty at lunchtimes—and the unexpectedly vibrant Breton culture, with the grasp of tongue-in-cheek humour that leads to mugs in gwenn ha du depicting "Che Guevarrec." Ancient buildings, riverboat tours, animals in bucolic repose. Western France is a nice place to visit: if you're lucky enough to find it open.

Jeff Nichols has only been making films for about a decade, and all five of them star Michael Shannon. As we await their next feature-length collaboration (which may be an Alien Nation remake), the duo has now reunited once again, this time for a seven-minute short film tied to Lucero's new album "Among The Ghosts." Titled Long Way Back Home, the cast not only includes Shannon, but Garrett Hedlund, Scoot McNairy, Paul Sparks, as well as Lucero bandmember and Nichols' brother, Ben Nichols.
Filmed in Memphis, home of the band, and Arkansas, home of the Nichols, it follows Shannon as Stanton, a man looking for his younger brothers. "It felt inevitable that one day I'd team up with my brother and the rest of Lucero," Jeff Nichols told Variety, "and once I heard the haunting sounds of 'Long Way Back Home,' I knew this song was the perfect opportunity to do it."

KuFF 2018
Kumu Art Film Festival 2018
The Kumu Art Film Festival (KuFF) is the first and only cultural event in Estonia to focus on the relationship between film and the visual arts. During the four days of KuFF, documentary, staged and experimental art and artist films will be screened in the Kumu auditorium. The film-makers are all connected with the visual arts in one way or another, and they reveal this relationship in their films. This means focusing on the pictorial language of film and its dislocation, documenting the internal life of the art world, combining film and video art strategies and much more.
The Kumu Art Film Festival KuFF is being held for the third year in a row and forms a part of the Kumu Art Museum's research and exhibition project focussing on the 1990s. Other events in the project besides KuFF are the exhibition "The X-Files [Registry of the Nineties]" (02.11.2018–14.04.2019, curators Eha Komissarov and Anders Härm) in the contemporary art gallery of Kumu, and
the conference "Lost and Found Spaces: Displacements in Eastern European Art and Society in the 1990s" (01.–03.11.2018) in the Kumu auditorium. The aim of KuFF is, among other things, to examine the limits and possible definitions of the art film, as well as the relations between film and visual art. The programme of the third KuFF is centred around the new aspects in these relations introduced in the 1990s. As a part of its dialogue with the exhibition "The X Files", KuFF is presenting Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian video art from that period.
One of the subtopics of the film festival is the comparison of 1990s film and video art from Estonia and Europe with the developments in North America. The theme of the KuFF workshop this year is PXL2000, the "Pixelvision" camera, which is relatively unknown in Europe but acquired an iconic status in North America.
All screenings are free of charge.
All films are in the original language and/or have English subtitles.
All screenings will take place in the auditorium of the Kumu Art Museum.

Preparatory programme
Dir Paula Rodríguez Sickert,
Chile 2017, 77 min
In English and Spanish with English subtitles
The film observes the creative and personal process of Alfredo Jaar (b. 1956), the most renowned international Chilean contemporary artist. According to Jaar, art is the last space left in society through which one can speak honestly and profoundly about social conflicts, in a world ruled by consumption and spectacle. The film uses the artist's work exhibited in Finland, Venice, Buenos Aires, Santiago and New York. The soundtrack of the documentary is by his son Nicolas Jaar, one of the most influential musicians of current world electronica.
This year the festival workshop is dedicated to introducing the legendary North American experimental camera PXL2000.
PXL2000 – also known as Pixelvision – is a 90s camcorder which records black and white video footage on an audio cassette. Initially marketed as a children's toy camcorder, Pixelvision was taken up by film-makers in North America and found its way into both experimental cinematography and feature films.
The workshop is meant for video enthusiasts, artists and film and art students. We expect the participants to have their own laptops (with USB port and the ability to read SD cards) with editing software, and to have a basic knowledge of video editing. The workshop will be guided by the Pixelvision enthusiast and developer Thomas Kinsman from Australia and by Piibe Kolka. It will be held in English.
As the technical operation of the PXL2000 camera is quite simple, the workshop will focus on experimentation with pixel visuals. Over five sessions, we will watch and discuss experimental examples by different artists and look into the history of Pixelvision. The participants will try filming under different lighting conditions and learn to capture material from tapes. On Saturday short pieces will be produced as individual or group work and on Sunday afternoon the workshop will end with a screening of workshop results and short films by Pixelvision pioneers.
The cost of the five day workshop is 35 euros, which includes all materials, the use of a camera and the facilities at Kumu and small coffee breaks. The number of participants is limited to 12 people; your enrollment is guaranteed upon the payment of the fee. For registration and additional information contact:

"Marble ass" is set in 1990s Serbia, where two transvestite prostitutes, who have lots of soldier customers, have made their profession into a "pacifist mission". The prostitutes meet John, a young soldier returning from the war and trying to calm himself through acts of violence. Želimir Žilnik plays with the area between documentary and feature film. He has a unique approach to gender and sexuality in the context of a strong macho culture, and "Marble ass" was the first queer-film in Serbia. The film was awarded the best feature film Teddy award at the Berlinale in 1995.

Produced by David Lynch, "Nadja" is an unusual vampire tale set in the 1990s New York City underworld. A Transylvanian immigrant must travel to strange and unknown Brooklyn to deal with self-searches and to solve vital issues for vampires, who exist on the border of death and life. Somewhat emotionless dialogue is interwoven with black and white 35mm film and PXL2000 experimental visuals, creating dreamlike effects. "Nadja" is part of the KuFF Pixelvision programme.

A fashionable contemporary art gallerist in the Chelsea area of New York City, falls for a brooding new music composer in this comic take on the state of contemporary art. Adam Goldberg plays the composer, whose work calls for paper crumpling, glass breaking and bucket kicking. Marley Shelton plays the gorgeous Chelsea gallerist, whose latest show features an artist, played by Vinnie Jones, who employs taxidermy and household objects. Further complicating the affair is the composer's brother, played by Eion Bailey, whose highly commercial art work – the financial backbone of the gallery – is sold to corporate clients discreetly out of the gallery's back room.

The second screening of the Pixelvision programme is a combination of early short films by Sadie Benning and Joe Gibbons from the 1990s and KuFF workshop results. Sadie Benning was the first artist to start using the PXL2000 camera widely. Her diary-form short films discuss the gender identity of a teenager and the absurd society surrounding her. Joe Gibbons is the main character in his films, in which he tries to find a way to communicate with silent dialogue partners, including a dog and a Barbie doll. Both artists discovered Pixelvision as a way to make personal films all by themselves. In addition, you can see the results of the KuFF Pixelvision workshop and compare how the perceptions of pixel visuals have changed during the last 30 years.

Orlando is loosely based on Virginia Woolf's novel from 1928. The story of the androgynous title character (Tilda Swinton) begins during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and unfolds over the course of centuries. In different places Orlando takes on different roles and undergoes changes in gender. The film has been praised for its approach to sexual politics, and for its visual treatment of the settings of Woolf's novel.

The North Tama boys basketball team (3-4) emerges from winter break looking to build on some positive moments during the early part of the 2014-15 season. A victory Jan. 6 would bring the boys back to .500, but they'll face a tough test in unbeaten Janesville (8-0).
So far this season, senior Paul Kaufmann has continued his progression as a top player in the conference, leading North Tama in scoring, rebounding and assists. Kaufmann is averaging 13.1 points, 8.7 rebounds and four assists per game.
Kaufmann has continued to perfect his game after receiving many accolades in his junior season. He was a 2014 INA Third Team All State honoree, unanimous Iowa Star All Conference South performer, 2014 ICBA Sub State Team member and 2014 Marshalltown Times-Republican All Area Team honoree.
Kaufmann has also benefited from a deeper North Tama team, led by a trio of juniors in Ben Panfil, Logan Zobel and Caden Stuart. Panfil is second on the team with 12.6 points per game and is perhaps the team's most accurate shooter, hitting over 50 percent of his shots from the field.
Stuart, averaging 7.4 points per game, is also the team's second-leading rebounder, grabbing 5.9 boards per game while also distributing the ball well. Stuart averages 3.3 assists per game and leads the team with nine steals.
Logan Zobel, averaging 8.9 points per game, has been a great deep threat for the Redhawks, hitting 44.4 percent of his shots from beyond the arc. Brian Zobel also averages 5.3 points per game and leads the team in blocks. Senior Dylan Clausen averages 3.4 points per game and is third in rebounding at five rebounds a game.
The boys take on Janesville on the road Tuesday, January 6 before returning home from a contest against Waterloo Christian on January 9.

This home is tiny yet charming. We enjoyed picking lemons from the fruit tree out back and our granddaughter loved to play in the grass. We will return this fall for a longer stay.

Alisa S from Granite Bay, CA recommends this vacation rental
We had a delightful stay in February in this sunny, art-filled cottage. It has beachy decor and paintings. We enjoyed sitting on the deck at sunset, with its view of "The Rock". The kitchen is well-equipped; it had everything we needed. It is well-located,
a 3 block walk to the Embarcadero. Morning walks to the Rock and beach, watching the sea otters along the way, were great. There are many shops and restaurants along the Embarcadero. We also found Morro Bay to be a good home base for exploring the Paso Robles
wine country, beautiful Cambria, San Luis Obispo, and our favorite beach there, Avila. By the way, the lower bunk bed makes out into a futon bed. With the large back yard and bunk beds, it would work well for a couple with young children. We are planning to
return this summer with our grandsons.

i originally wasn't going to hold a 21st, and was just going to save it up for travelling. events like this isn't cheap, i'll just say a few thousands...but since some of my relatives were going to come over, i decided to hold one anyway for the memories :)
i've always wanted to hold something at The Grounds because i love their food and atmosphere (although i'm told the food there isn't as great anymore). however, that was way out of my budget, at least $10k for the indoor one, and at min $20k for outdoor exclusive hire. the outdoor daytime patio was reasonably priced, but a pax of 30. well, they are currently renovating so that location wasn't an option.
also wanted a place with decent food. i wanted people not feel bad for having to pay for present/cake/dinner, rather just have a good time. didn't want a kind of dinner w/ cheaper asian food...wanted a canapé style event, but not too fancy and more on the small side.
emailed/researched a few other places, and each place was so, so expensive. around $100pp. nice weddings these days cost $200pp, decent $150, and ok/cheap are about $100, but i wasn't going to spend that much when i wasn't even planning to hold an event in the first place.
so finally i settled on Haven Cafe. again, they charge for pp.
deciding who to invite would always be tricky because i don't have many friends, but once you invite friends you sometimes only talk to, then you have to invite everyone. i wasn't going to invite church people, but ended up inviting some. also, some people commented about how there were no guys invited lel. i have no guy friends #foreveralone. no but if i just invite 1/2, it'll be awkward for them (apart from those plus ones), so then i would have had to invite a whole bunch, and the number of people would just blow my budget since in terms of family/relo there are at least 10 of us...so even though some invited me before, i couldn't invite them back ):
which brings me to the main rant. invited people even though they didn't invite me to their 21st. then other's who didn't hold a 21st yet i still invited them. then 2 hours before the event, they're like 'oh, dad's coming back from overseas, soz can't come' or 'something came up tonight-can't come'. whatttttt. as if you didn't know your dad was coming back that date. why did you tell me you're coming then not come. the place is charging me pp. then there was someone who had a reasonable issue the night before, and someone who really wanted to come but bf's mum got sick...but those other last minute ones...really shows how even Christians can be 'two-faced'. does stuff at church, but then don't have the common courtesy to even give advanced notice, or doesn't want to come so they don't have to bring a gift. like you went on a month trip to europe and gave gifts to other people in front of me without acknowledging me
even those who came empty handed...yeah, i did risk asking people for a monetary gift for something in a few months...but even if you didn't contribute, at least a card would be nice. sometime there parents may feel that we owe them something 10yrs ago and they feel that no giving something back repays it. yes, church/some people are complicated. ended up having 5 people i counted for not coming...which is almost the equivalent amount of my birthday cake wasted...hence the extra food...so if i had known those 2 people (whom i've known since i was a toddler) never had the intention of coming, then i could have invited more guys...
only invited them since mum told me to...but i regret not inviting others, which now post-event, people are holding a grudge on you since you didn't invite them even though we kind of talk, or i've asked them for favours before, and people secretly hate on you for not inviting them...
yes, that's one of the main reason why i didn't want to hold an event apart from the money side, people distancing them from you if you didn't invite them.
i should have been like another friend who boldly stated that the place is charging pp, so click if you're going (or else i feel that if you don't go, you'll have to pay up)
but i'm thankful that i still have friends that i can rely on (and don't judge me if i ask for stuff)
sorry, that was bubbling inside my head for the past 2 weeks (along with diseases).

How to Start a Business in Wyoming
Detailed guide with helpful information on Wyoming fees, requirements, licenses, and formation. Includes resources, FAQs, and downloadable checklist.

According to a recent Business Insider study, Wyoming was identified as the best state to start a business due to its business-friendly tax climate and great record of business survival. With great asset protection laws and low costs of labor, the Equality State provides a great platform for those who want to start a new business there.
How to Start a Business in Wyoming Checklist - Free PDF
Stay on task and cover your bases with our detailed checklist.
How to Start a Business in Wyoming:
1. Determine your business structure.
Choosing the right legal structure for your company is important. Your choice will have an impact on taxes, paperwork, personal liability, and your ability to raise funds.
You can choose from the following legal structures:
A sole proprietorship is the simplest structure and usually involves one individual who is solely responsible for the enterprise while a partnership is suitable for businesses with two or more owners. A corporation is a standalone entity with shareholders while a Limited Liability Company (LLC) is the most popular type because of minimal paperwork, flexibility, tax benefits, and simple implementation process. LLC business owners are not obligated to file a corporate tax return.
Businesses are regulated by Wyoming state laws and must be registered through the Wyoming Secretary of State website.
2. Write a business plan.
Your business plan is the foundation of your new business and will serve as an invaluable guide for how to structure, run and grow your company. The business plan must meet your needs and can fall into one of two common categories: traditional or lean startup.
The traditional plan is very detailed, takes more time to write, and is quite comprehensive while the lean startup plan is streamlined and fast to write.
A strong business plan can help you get funding and makes opening a new business easier. You can consult with the Wyoming Small Business Development Center, a free service that offers business planning and consulting for small business owners in Wyoming.
3. Sign up for business banking.
Your business and personal finances must be kept separate to maintain accurate records. With a business bank account, you can easily obtain statements and access products that would not be available to you as an individual.
4. Seek funding.
Opening a new business often requires capital. If you are unable to fund your new business, you will need to take out a loan. There are three common ways to fund your business: commercial loans, business lines of credit and small business loans.
A popular organization that can assist you with small business loans in Wyoming is the Wyoming Business Council.
5. Decide on a business name.
Make a list of names that you like and perform a Google search to find any conflicts with other Wyoming business names.
Once this is done, you will need to do a trademark search to ensure that the business name that you chose has not already been trademarked. You can perform the trademark search at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the Trademark Electronic Search System. These databases have a comprehensive list of business names that are registered together with their classification.
After you have confirmed that your business name is not trademarked, you need to check the Wyoming Secretary of State website to ensure that your business name is not the same or similar to another corporation registered in Wyoming.
If you are satisfied that your business name is available, you can then register it on the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office website. You can check out our guide on How to Name a Business to assist you with naming your business.
Once you have found a suitable name, make sure to register the matching web domain and social media handles, should you wish to market your business online. You can use our Guide to Registering a Domain Name to help you with that.
6. Request an Employer Identification Number (EIN).
Every business needs to have an Employer Identification Number (EIN). Registering for an EIN is very easy—all you need to do is go to the IRS website. You can complete the application online, and save your EIN confirmation notice once you receive a number from the IRS.
7. Acquire business licenses and permits.
The state of Wyoming requires all businesses to have a statewide business license that you can get through the Business Division of the Wyoming Secretary of State. You may also require a specific business license depending on the location of your business. You can consult with your local city council to check on specific business licenses and permits that you may require.
8. Hire employees.
To start hiring you will need to register at the Wyoming New Hire Reporting website. Each employee will need to be registered within 20 days of starting work.
The Wyoming Fair Employment Practices Act protects employees against discrimination on the basis of age, race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, religion, or disability.
The Wyoming Equal Pay Act requires all employers in Wyoming to pay men and women equally for jobs that require the same skills, effort, and responsibility.
With reference to the pre-employment screening process in Wyoming, an employer is entitled to view a job applicant's criminal history and obtain the relevant records from the criminal justice system.
9. Check your business employer requirements.
Business employer requirements are specific to the type of business that you are starting and include various labor, safety and tax that need to be met. You should consider hiring a tax or business attorney to ensure your business is fully compliant with the laws in Wyoming.
If you are starting a business in Wyoming, you will need to take note of the following important items:
Business Insurance
Wyoming's law requires all employers to provide workers' compensation coverage to their employees. You can obtain more information at the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services website.
Health insurance isn't a requirement for small businesses in Wyoming.
Unemployment Insurance
In Wyoming, your small business is required to establish an unemployment insurance tax account with the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services. If your business is required to contribute towards unemployment insurance, you will need to file quarterly reports.
Wyoming Sales Tax
Every business selling taxable tangible personal property in the state of Wyoming is required to pay sales and use tax. Services rendered are not taxable. You will need to register for a sales tax permit with the Wyoming Department of Revenue.

This post follows the Bearish Case of Digital Transformation. The bullish case of Digital Transformation is a scenario where productivity growth in many industries approaches 3% or higher for a sustained period (2020+) and the product/service quality is continuously improving.
There is a good chance that the bullish case comes true, especially if advances in foundational components of Digital Transformation feed each other and geo-political conditions return to a tranquil state.
Let's revisit the foundational components of Digital Transformation listed below.
- Mobile and Cloud Computing
- Internet of Things (Sensors, Intelligent Machines, etc.)
- Robotics
- Artificial Intelligence
- Genomics and Synthetic Biology
- New Energy Sources
In the benign scenario, Moore's law continues to hold true for computing, ubiquitous communications (mobile and fixed broadband) become dirt cheap, mobile phones are miniature super computers with unlimited intelligence and computing power aided by Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence endows robots to become reasonably autonomous and intelligent to eliminate human drudgery, clean energy is ubiquitous and cheaper than the cheapest fossil fuel and genomics/synthetic biology eliminate disease and ensure sustainable and plentiful food supply. Sounds like Utopia? This is the type of future many techno-utopians imagine to be coming.
