Many parts of the printing industry may be worried about the future, but packaging and label printing certainly aren't. There are two reasons for this. On the one hand, the development of technology continuously promotes the development of packaging quality. A number of advantages have emerged over the years through the post-press production process. On the other hand, product manufacturers and retailers are constantly looking for high-impact packaging that can generate sales.
Mass market, luxury market
According to the "2013-2017 China packaging industry development potential research and investment value evaluation report", consumer goods packaging market is divided into two overlapping market branches, luxury packaging and mass packaging, which have impact on different aspects of packaging. In terms of mass packaging, the main focus is on the use of product packaging or display packaging, which can be distinguished from other similar products in supermarkets or department stores, so as to promote the purchase decision of users. To the extent that the retailer CARES, the product does not need to provide major support in the day-to-day business. Unless there is some sort of joint promotion, retailers simply put the product on the shelf separately, mark the price, and package it to win customers.
Luxury packaging also has to be influential at the point of sale, but the emphasis is on the buying experience. Buyers of apple's iPad arrive at the store with an idea of the product in advance, thanks to a lifestyle built on a brand image that has been carefully cultivated by the manufacturer for decades. Once at the point of sale, the packaging must confirm these expectations, and when the product is opened at home, the user needs to feel that he has made the right decision when making the purchase. Apple perfected this "unpacking ritual," as multiple YouTube clips show.
The importance of packaging has therefore skyrocketed in both markets, a trend that is unlikely to reverse soon. The truth is quite different, because ultimately no company targeting the consumer market will be able to afford to invest in packaging.
Continuous progress in technology
According to the 2013-2017 China packaging industry development potential research and investment value evaluation report, in technical terms, few branches of the printing industry have produced as many changes as packaging and label printing. The most important of the new trends is that digital printing is advancing in various forms. In the creative phase, new software solutions leverage cloud computing to help improve collaboration between all parties involved. New visual tools provide technical support for creative designers and developers when creating packaging solutions.
New offset presses have been further improved in quality, new digital presses have been made available for short-form printing, and personalized packaging has become possible. New applications have also been made possible by technological developments in printing finishing and post-printing processing. In the field of labels, there has long been a trend towards digital printing and more personalized labels. RFID tag processing is becoming more and more important, and the print electronics industry is now growing. The industry has now left the lab and is eventually making money by processing products for market use.
The best design
Creativity is the first step in production. Over the past few months, the success of cloud computing -- the distribution and collaboration of digital content over the Internet -- has also led to multiple innovations in packaging design. Chili publications, for example, unveiled the third edition of the ChiliPublisher software at the 2012 druba print show, which features a new 3D folding module that allows packaging to be visualized at design time. Of course, suitable 3D packages have been available before, but designers need a steep learning curve to use these applications, and the ChiliPublisher software USES an interface similar to a desktop publishing program.
At the same time, users or collaborators can access the design through cloud computing or using mobile applications. Other companies have demonstrated suitable solutions, either to upload files to servers or to document the design itself online. These include such heavyweights as Adobe. Essori Pantone shows PantoneLive on druba. This is the new cloud computing application that ensures that the colors printed match the company's logo when it is printed on any possible substrate, whether it is on a finely coated white board or on brown corrugated paper.
For service providers, these new tools provide an opportunity to connect users more closely and provide a deeper insight.

Tag: how to make pizza at home
Finally, Make A Perfect Personal Pizza In 6 Minutes
By Cooking Panda
Anyone who has ever tried to make a pizza in their home kitchen knows the struggle: You research the best method for mixing your dough and baking your pie. You do everything right. You probably make a big floury mess. Maybe you have a pizza stone or some other specialty stuff that's supposed to properly crisp up your dough. It all helps, but after you take your pie out, slice it up, and nibble on it, it's just not quite the same as that delicious, soft yet firm, chewy and slightly charred stuff that comes out of a real pizza oven.
If you are apartment-dwelling plebeians like us — or if you are another sort of normal human –chances are high that you don't have your own pizza oven.
You can try everything — actually, it seems like the closest thing anyone has found to replicating top notch, perfectly scorched pizza is on the grill outside. Who would have thought?
That may get you the closest to Neapolitan bliss, but even that requires a little bit of gear and skills, plus a fair amount of patience, especially if the weather is bad. Besides, if the shoebox you live in has a landlord who forbids you from keeping a barbecue on your balcony (not speaking from personal experience here or anything), you might have limited resources.
Enter the Pizzacraft Pizzeria Pronto Stovetop Pizza Oven:
As you can see, this baby takes up about as much room as a saucepan, and it's designed to keep the moisture levels optimal and the temperature (which goes up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit, by the way) consistent. On a gas stove, it preheats in about 10 minutes and cooks your pie nice and crisp in only six.
It's a little pricey at $169 (free shipping though!), but if you're a pizza fiend, it just might be worth it — especially considering that it's way cheaper than an actual wood burning oven. Just think of all that dough you'll be saving by cutting the pizza delivery guy out of your life. (Sorry, pizza delivery guy.)

text: Canesfanforever Report post Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) last year there was a lot of talk about who the canes were going to draft , and i was on team nichushkin in case you all forgot . maybe some of you remember but i was for rutherford on drafting nichushkin and was expecting him to do so . then when the 5th pick in the 2013 draft came in all my hopes in what direction the team would be going in went yet again the opposite direction by rutherford drafting lindholm over nichushkin so when the choice was made i know a fair amount of canes fans like myself were upset that we did not get the guy that we wanted and on the other side there were some canes fans that were happy with the choice and then there were the fans that had no idea about the pick but were okay with the pick anyways cause they believe in rutherford despite how much talk was leading up to the draft on these forums , and despite how much talk about who would be a better fit for the team , the canes ended up with lindholm over nichushkin so here is where i say i am justified in my stance valeri nichushkin 10th over all in the first round , 56 games played , 13 goals , 16 assist , 29 points , a plus 17 elias lindholm 5th over all in the first round , 36 games played , 4 goals , 8 assists , 12 points ,a minus 9 so in yesterdays game against dalas , nichushkin recorded an assist over the carolina hurricanes with a beauty of a set up to tyler seguin in the first period . that would be 1 point more than lindholm got in yesterdays game if you were wondering . let this be known to everyone , i have nothing against elias lindholm , in 10 or 12 years lindholm might end up as a great player for the hurricanes in the future with his skill sets , his ability to read the ice and all . but in my opinion nichushkin is and always will be the better player . now i know i might sound foolish to some of you for saying i feel justified in my position . me being a canes fan and all but here is the thing , i chalk it all up to knowing what is best for this team than some who are more or less informed about such things in regards to hockey. so please tell me how i am wrong , how it was a risky move , how nichuskin is russian and how russians cant be trusted and all , cause last time i checked we so happen to have a russian on the team by the name of semin and most of you seem to be fine with him being on the team . please tell me how i am wrong about nichushkin and that it must of been something he said cause some how words speak louder than actions or , tell me how i am wrong statistically , cause at the end of the day the guy i wanted scored on us and the guy we got didnt score at all . is it possible to get a new general manager ? cause i am sick and tired of seeing jim rutherford make one bad choice after another when it comes drafting players !

Tuning up…
After a lengthy break (in which I wrote and recorded a 6 song debut EP for a band project agentsofmad ), I am turning my attention back towards this project. The goal is very simple: become a badass bass player. Along the way, I will document the steps that I take towards that goal.
The criteria is also simple: specific styles of music are not required, specific gear (other that an electric four string or five string bass) is not required, and specific skill levels are not required (there's a beginner's corner for the newcomers; all others, use the stage entrance in the back.)
I'm looking forward to this project becoming a reality and my sincerest hope is that I can help someone else achieve their dreams of becoming a badass bass player as well.

MAPUTO, Mozambican police say they are investigating how 51 kilogrammes of rhinoceros horn were smuggled out of the country last week on board a Qatar Airways flight.
The rhino horns, inside a crate marked "works of art", were flown, via the Qatari capital of Doha, to Kuala Lumpur, where they were seized by the Malaysian authorities, acting on a tip-off. There were 18 horns, with an estimated value of 3.1 million US dollars.
At a media briefing here Tuesday, the spokesperson for the General Command of the Mozambican police, Inacio Dina, told journalists that the matter was being "minutely investigated".
As soon as the police became aware of the seizure in Malaysia, they contacted other relevant authorities at the airport such as the immigration and customs services, to discover how such a large illicit shipment could have been loaded onto the Qatar Airways plane without being spotted.
All cargo at Maputo International Airport should pass through electronic scanners, which should certainly detect something as large and strangely shaped as 18 rhinoceros horns. It should also be an easy matter to discover who was on duty at the airport when the flight to Doha was being loaded.
"If this information is true, we must continue to work to avoid any repetition of this scenario in which illicit products cross our borders", said Dina. "There are controls at the borders and we are going to work on the information to understand the nature of this particular case".
He added that the Mozambican authorities were co-operating with Interpol and with the Malaysian police. Such co-ordination, Dina said, "is in order to better understand, prevent and combat all kinds of cross-border crime".

Refinancing – Wikipedia – No Closing Cost. Borrowers with this type of refinancing typically pay few if any upfront fees to get the new mortgage loan. This type of refinance can be beneficial provided the prevailing market rate is lower than the borrower's existing rate by a formula determined by the lender offering the loan.

However, because the lenders (not the FHA) do the actual lending, they can set their own requirements, so actual scores may vary.
Before you consider a conventional mortgage refinance, you should find how much equity you have in your home. Make sure you have 20 percent equity or more so you are eligible for a conventional loan. With that being said, when refinancing from an FHA loan to a conventional loan, you may be getting the same interest rate as your current fha loan.
When Can you Refinance Your FHA Loan? – FHAStreamlineMortgage.com – The real issue, though, is that you must wait at least 210 days from the date of your original FHA loan or make 6 payments before you can use this program. If you do refinance right at the 210-day mark, you must have all of your fha mortgage payments made on time in order to qualify.

WASHINGTON (RNS)—The nation knows how evangelicals, Protestants and Catholics voted on Election Day. Hard data exists on much smaller religious groups—Mormons and Jews. We even have the numbers to distinguish between the voting preferences of white and Latino Catholics.
But Muslim voters? No.
That's because—at 1 percent of the electorate—Muslim Americans barely register in the national exit polls.
Data on Muslims in America
Pollsters and other students of politics say the day has not arrived when the Muslim vote makes a significant imprint on national elections. But that doesn't mean they lack meaningful statistics on how Muslims in America lean politically. Nor does it mean politicians can safely ignore this demographic.
"The picture is mixed," said Besheer Mohamed, a senior researcher at the Pew Research Center who specializes in religion.
"On the one hand, it seems clear that Muslims are a pretty small part of the population. On the other hand, they are concentrated in some states and metro areas that might increase their voting powers in those specific areas."
Muslim Americans number about 3.3 million, with larger Muslim communities in New York, New Jersey, California, Florida, Michigan, Illinois and Texas, Pew reports.
Racially and ethnically diverse
Sign up for our weekly email newsletter.
The racial and ethnic diversity within the community, and—although many more lean Democratic than Republican—their tendency to align with Democrats on some issues and Republicans on others lends Muslims political clout, Mohamed said. A 2011 Pew study on Muslim Americans showed they were more supportive of Barack Obama than Americans in general.
American Muslims are black, Southeast Asian, Arab and white, with no one group accounting for more than 30 percent of all Muslims. Many are immigrants. Many are not.
Consider their views of immigration. Surveys show no "Muslim" view of the subject, Mohamed said. While a little more than half of African-American Muslims, most of whom are born in this country, say immigrants mostly benefit the nation, eight in 10 immigrant Muslims hold that view.
Not easy to pigeonhole
If he had to characterize a "typical" Muslim American voter, Mohamed said, he would describe "a big-government social conservative."
They tend to support more social services and government help for the poor. "But they also share some of evangelicals' concerns about same-sex marriage and homosexuality being accepted by society," he said, citing Pew studies.
Jon McHenry, vice president at North Star Opinion Research, a Northern Virginia firm that advises Republican candidates, said Muslims' influence in elections will depend in part on whether they side with the majority or minority party wherever they may vote.
"To the extent they're in California, they could have an outsize influence if they vote Republican. If they vote Democrat, they're yet another group that votes for Democrats in California."
McHenry compares Muslim voters to Jewish voters, who—at about 2 percent of the U.S. population—also represent a small portion of the electorate. But in some congressional districts, they make up a significant group of voters.
And even nationally, with many Jewish communities in swing state Florida, for example, they show up on both Democrats' and Republicans' radar, even though about three-quarters of Jewish Americans tend to vote for Democrats.
Not numerous enough to register nationally
Why aren't Muslims showing up in the national exit polls? They haven't crossed the pollsters' threshold.
The National Election Pool, a consortium of six major news organizations—ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX, NBC and the Associated Press—pays for national exit polls. Since 2003, the consortium has contracted with Edison Research, a New Jersey-based company, to conduct exit polls at hundreds of polling places nationwide.
Joe Lenski, Edison's executive vice president, said 8,246 voters this year were asked about their religion, and of them, about 1 percent identified themselves as Muslim.
That translates to about 80 people, well short of the 100-person minimum the consortium told Edison it needs to release data on a voting subgroup. The margin of error for a group of less than 100 rises above plus or minus 10 percentage points—which the consortium considers too high for the statistics to be strong enough to report.
Edison has found Muslims have held steady at about 1 percent of the electorate since 2004.
When will there be enough Muslim voters to make a dent in the exit polls? Unclear, but it's not likely by the next national election.
Pew researchers project Muslims will grow to about 2.1 percent of the national population by 2050, or about 8 million people.
American Muslims still are heavily an immigrant group, and it takes some time for immigrants to gain citizenship and voting rights, McHenry said
And the rate at which the Muslim electorate grows from its current 1 percent also may depend on President-elect Donald Trump, added McHenry, whose firm worked for GOP rival Marco Rubio. Trump has called for both a ban on and "extreme vetting" of Muslims coming into the United States.
"If he has his way, it may stay at 1 percent or decline," McHenry said. "We'll see."

The children their love nothing more than to spend their free time playing football and as such, we were more than willing to kit them out in Macclesfield Town shirts as a special treat.
Located in an challenging area where economic deprivation is rife, the work that is done by the foundation really is heart-warming and we would like to pay tribute to Russ in light of his great work.

People with phobias sometimes feel a bit embarrassed about their fear, and if they are with other people when the phobic response is occurring, they may try to hide it from them.
One reason for this is that it can be frustrating to be told that you "shouldn't be frightened" and that there is "nothing to be scared of" – as if you didn't know that already.
A phobia has nothing to do with the rational part of our mind, and of course we all know perfectly well that the sound of thunder can't physically harm us, however, the problem is from the much more primitive, subconscious part of the brain which has made a connection between thunder and danger, instinctively creating the physical symptoms of raised heartbeat, sweaty palms, rapid breathing and feelings of fear. No-one really tends to create that connection, we don't actually choose to have that phobic response – the brain made the association between thunder and fear all by itself.
I have treated many different kinds of phobias from spiders, snakes, heights, needles and flying to name just a few, to put it plainly, the mind is simply very good at instinctive learning, and people can become phobic about pretty much anything. A child who sees one of the parents or a sibling cringe and panic every time they come across a spider will tend to be scared by that persons' response and subconsciously associate spiders with fear or someone who is driving a car may have a panic response during driving and their brain may form a pattern match between being in a car and danger and they may become phobic about driving or about having no control as a passenger.
However, just as the brain can learn to adopt a phobia very quickly, so hypnosis can help someone to retrain the brain to connect with a more appropriate response to the sound of thunder.
As a person prepares to deeply relax, I will guide the sub-conscious mind to create a new connection of calm and comfort with the sound of thunder. The old fear response steadily fades away, finding the self comfortably indifferent to the sound of thunder. Some people have even indicated that the thunder sounds further away and seems less important and when there is a storm they don't particularly think about it anymore.
Therefore, why not try to change the nature of that memory, those very worst memories, so you can relax about possible future exposure to thunder, no matter what the reason may be, you can learn to be calm about it, having greatly reduced the emotional impact and therefore be calm about it.
Through the use of guidance and hypnotherapy Karen will be able to assist you with ways of overcoming those fears and phobias that stop you from making the most of your life and allow you to feel better about yourself, which will benefit you in so many ways

Speck Products FunSkin Cloud for iPod nano
Like its sibling, the FunSkin Grass, Speck Products' FunSkin Cloud is intended to bring a whimsical slant to your iPod case. But whereas the FunSkin Grass resembled kiddie-toy Bristle Blocks, the FunSkin Cloud looks more like something produced by the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man in cahoots with the Michelin Man. Oh, and I guess it kind of looks like a cloud too.
Featurewise, the FunSkin Cloud is pretty much identical to the FunSkin Grass. It has openings for the top controls; dock port and headphone jack on the bottom; and Click Wheel and screen on the front. A hard, clear-acrylic screen protector is provided; you fit it in place after sliding the nano into the case. There's also a removable swivel belt clip that clicks onto the back of the case.
Although the cloud-like texture of the case doesn't extend as far as the grass on the FunSkin Grass, the material is still thick enough to protect your iPod from scratches, dents, and drops. It's also grippy enough to feel secure in your hand when you're holding it. The screen protector is a welcome addition, but, as with the Grass, I wish that Speck had included more robust protection for the Click Wheel; it's recessed into the case, but an adhesive film cover would have been welcome. The belt clip is useful, but it adds a fair amount of bulk, and the swivel mechanism rotates freely so it won't stay in whatever position you turn it to.
Overall, the FunSkin Cloud is a solid case for a good price that will not only provide protection to your iPod, but also make it stand out. It's easy to recommend, especially for Ghostbusters fans.

Title: Rob Arnold Imported Uranium Current Price 2011 cost data point Content: In an average light water reactor, one gets about 500 GJ thermal energy out of 1 kg natural uranium (i.e. 3.5% U-235) on a once-through fuel cycle (i.e. without reprocessing), which means that you'd get about 430 GJ useable thermal energy per kg of U3O8 . It'll be a bit more efficient (not sure by how much) if you enriched the U. For comparison, a fast reactor and full fuel reprocessing would probably give between 20-50 times the amount of energy per kg, depending on the average number of reprocessing cycles. Currently costs about €89 for that kilo of U3O8. Bear in mind that LWR nuclear plant is about 36-38% efficient – pretty run of the mill for thermal plant.

Stay or Go: Is In-Situ Decommissioning the Way To Go?
The conventional wisdom for decommissioning unused offshore structures is that reuse, recycling, or disposal of a facility on land is the generally preferred option. However, in a webinar presentation held by DecomWorld, a pair of decommissioning experts argued that this base assumption was worthy of further examination and a possible challenge.
Gioia Falcone, a professor and head of the Oil and Gas Engineering Centre at Cranfield University, and Steve Gilbert, a director of asset management and decommissioning at Lloyd's Register, discussed the challenges associated with decommissioning in the UK North Sea. Falcone and Gilbert argued the merits of and problems with abandoning an offshore installation vs. the practice of reusing or disposing an installation onshore.
Gilbert said that the planned decommissioning of a field should be viewed in its entirety rather than as a series of components. Typically these components include wells, subsea architecture, pipelines, structures, topsides, and waste piles such as drill cuttings. Each component, he said, presents its own challenges, and each is subject to varying criteria for removal or monitoring.
In the UK, guidance notes include a matrix showing how options may be assessed with respect to five main criteria: safety, technical, societal, economic, and environmental. Within the economic spectrum, Gilbert said operators must examine whether their projects will incur excessive costs for little or potentially no long-term benefit, and governments must examine whether a project will provide a non-beneficial burden on the tax payer. The societal spectrum includes further examination of possible alternative use of structures like rig-to-reef. On a technical level, total removal of an installation may not be feasible. On the environmental spectrum, operators run the risk of damaging new marine ecosystems.
In examining these criteria, Gilbert said that leaving an installation in situ offshore may be a viable option for an operator, but even if it does so some perpetual liabilities will be assumed.
"This is not an attempt to justify simply walking away from anyone's responsibilities," he said. "It's not a literal abandonment of the facility. The question is, however, if we want to come to an enlightened conclusion on choosing the right solution, there is a preexisting bias helpful to that process."
The 1998 OSPAR Decision 98/3 established the principle that "reuse, recycling, or final disposal on land will generally be the preferred option" for decommissioning offshore installations. However, Falcone said the regulation does not consider other sources of potential pollution—the installation may not actually represent the hazard—nor does it take into account the alternative social or economic benefit of abandonment. Some installations that have been in situ for significant periods of time may have developed their own ecosystems.
Falcone also said that future technological advances are not criteria for the OSPAR regulation. Hazards that are currently difficult to handle may be the beneficiaries of new technologies in the future, and there may be an increased risk involved in rushing a suboptimal onshore decommissioning project.
Based on three other regulations—the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change's (DECC) Streamlined Decom Program Template, DECC's 2011 guidance note on offshore renewable energy installations, and the Oil and Gas UK's 2017 Decom Insight Report—Falcone argued that monitoring should be the final stage of a decommissioning project. Operators should begin with a baseline and define a structured set of time variations that would allow the detection of baseline changes. Afterward, they should define acceptable baseline changes vs. changes that could be associated with subtle effects and permanent impact on the environment. Then they should select proper environmental monitoring technology, a process Falcon said was not straightforward.
"You don't just buy a set of monitoring equipment off the shelves," she said. "You have to choose what is appropriate. Should you go for something that allows you to do permanent monitoring, or it ok to just do it as a one-off? Are you going for autonomous equipment? What about the connection to any late-life asset monitoring that you were probably doing already?"
Currently, though, there are no protocols for environmental monitoring of decommissioned installations in the UK. Falcone said that among the biggest challenges for operators is knowing the true perpetual liabilities before commencing with a decommissioning project, and figuring out how other users of the sea and the public can know in advance in cases where they may be later asked to pay taxes to help support the post-decommissioning costs.
Petrobras Cuts E&P Capex, Buzios Oil Field To Account for 70% of E&P Investments
Brazil's national oil company estimated a reduction of 22 to 38% in capital expenditures in E&P from its 2020–2024 strategic plan and expects to spend $6 billion through 2024 to decommission offshore platforms and wells and underwater gas pipelines.
Petrobras To Build Brazil's Largest Platform
In its push to boost deepwater production, Petrobras is aiming to launch a leasing tender to build an FPSO described as Brazil's largest-ever oil platform. Decommissioning work begins in the Campos and the Sergipe-Alagoas Basins.
Offshore Infrastructure Reuse Can Contribute to Decarbonization
The Hydrogen Offshore Production project identifies an alternative to decommissioning by providing reuse options for offshore infrastructure. It aims to prove the feasibility of decentralized hydrogen generation, storage, and distribution to provide a bulk hydrogen solution.

defense, and we were evidently, from the character of their resistance, and the signs of recent bivouacs of an infantry column, pushing their rear guard close upon their main body. My guide (a very poor one, but the only one I could get) now mistook Henry's Bayou (a tributary) for the crossing of the main Fourche, and my advance was pushed cautiously in order to reconnoiter the ground in expectation of a stout resistance. This mistake delayed us nearly an hour. When we approached the bayou we found a very strong position, but the enemy had not chosen to occupy it, fearing probably the open grounded in the vicinity. Finding my mistake, and that the advanced regiment was becoming very weary, I ordered up first the Seventh Missouri and then the Tenth Illinois, as skirmishers and supports. While this was doing, Clarkson, one of whose rifled pieces had been previously ordered yo the front, received permission to open fire at long range at what seemed to be the dust of their column on the road, about 1 1/2 miles ahead.
The new disposition now being complete, and the Thirteenth Illinois being thrown out as flankers, we moved on toward Fourche Bayou, and, to my great astonishment, found this strong position evacuated, and no
enemy in sight. This fact was accounted for by some negroes at the house, near the bayou, who stated Marmaduke had formed his whole force, with four pieces of artillery, at this point, and was, with his staff, seated in the house at dinner, when one of Clarkson's shells exploded over the house; another immediately followed, falling near his line of battle, and two others in quick succession exploded so near them that the whole line precipitately turned and fled, led by Marmaduke himself. The evidence of a hasty evacuation of their position confirmed the negroes' story.
The day was now well worn a way, and my troops, weary from the previous day, were worn out with 16 miles of skirmishing through thickets and heavy timber. I ordered the main column to halt, and directed Colonel Clayton, with the First Indiana (which, having fresh horses and poor fire-arms, had been held in reserve to act as cavalry, should the opportunity offer), with their two rifled guns and two light howitzers, to move on to the front, mounted, and to move on rapidly, but with proper caution, until he should again overtake the enemy, informing him that I would immediately follow him with the Eighth and Merrill's Horse and one of Clarkson's rifles. Clayton moved promptly forward, and before the two supporting regiments had come up from the rear I heard his skirmishers engaged with the enemy about 2 miles to the front. Sending orders to hurry up the support, I rode rapidly to the front, where I found the enemy strongly posted on the crest of a hill, with another higher hill behind them, just beyond the intersection of the Hot Springs road, while Clayton had posted his guns on a hill opposite, with his skirmishers well up to their line. A few round from the Indiana section drove the two guns from the first hill, and a single well-directed shot striking in their battery while unlimbering on the second hill, started them on again without firing a shot from the second position. It was now after sunset, and the troops and horses were jaded and worn out, and with a few parting shells from Clarkson's rifled gun, hastening their retreat, the pursuit was abandoned for that day; and, for convenience of water and forage, the command was brought back to Fourche Bayou to camp.
Early next morning, Clayton, with his brigade, and the small rifles and four howitzers under Stange, was directed to pursue again, and, if possible, stir up their rear guard. He found that leaving their last position of the day previous, they had not halted again until after

The Von der Heydt-Museum
The Von der Heydt-Museum is located right at the heart of Wuppertal-Elberfeld's pedestrian zone. The classical building on Turmhof 8, originally the town hall of Elberfeld, became the municipal museum in 1902. From its beginnings the character of the Von der Heydt-Museum has been shaped by the middle-class residents of the towns of Elberfeld and Barmen, which merged in 1929 to form the city of Wuppertal. If the museum possesses today one of the richest collections in Germany, this i s primarily due to the citizens of Wuppertal, their appreciation of art and their community spirit. The Von der Heydt-Museum owes its existence largely to the commitment shown by local residents. Especially notable as donors and patrons are the Elberfeld banker August von der Heydt (1851-1929) and his son Eduard von der Heydt (1882-1964). In grateful recognition of this the Museum has, since 1961, borne the name of the Von der Heydt family. The art lovers who made up the Barmen Art Society also purchased important works and donated them to their museum. Over the course of more than a hundred years, generous endowments and gifts made by citizens, together with major purchases have produced a collection of impressive size ranging from 16th century to contemporary art. Despite the enormous losses inflicted on the Museum by the National Socialist campaign against degenerate art, the collection now comprises some 3,000 paintings, 400 sculptures and around 30,000 works on paper. Areas in which the collection excels are Dutch painting of the 17th century, paintings and graphic art of the 19th century including some fine French Impressionist works and 20th century painting. Expressionism in particular is represented with some outstanding works.
With its stock of over 100,000 volumes, the Von der Heydt-Museum's Library represents the largest collection of art books in the Bergische Land region. It is a reference and research library for museum visitors, art historians, journalists, teachers, students and all local residents with an interest in art. Its resources include books, CD-Roms, videos, journals and a wealth of small publications and specialist materials that are not obtainable from bookshops.

A Brand Partnership Program (BPP) is a powerful tool.
Joined with a targeted and engaged audience, this is an efficient, flexible and winning combination for customer acquisition and retention, to build awareness and keep your brand top of mind through the buying cycles. (To learn more about and how to select a Brand Partnership Program Click Here).The challenge is to ensure the program is being leveraged to its highest potential.
The gauge the success of your BPP, and to learn what are the most effective promotions for your business, you need to be engaged during the entire term of the program. Depending on the program, the term may be a month or as long as a year. A longer term is great for the brand company as it provides the opportunity to change messaging and offers to align with seasons and new products and services.
With busy schedules and day to day business needs, it may be hard to stay on top of the BPP program. However, with just a little pre-planning and the right BPP to provide support and guidance, this doesn't have to be overly time consuming.
Here are 3 easy ways to help you succeed:
1. Set Goals
Spending the time to clearly set out what you want to achieve with the BPP at the beginning of the term will help to create a better opportunity for success:
- Meet with your BPP contact and review the target outcomes
- Be clear on how the KPI's success will be measured (for example: number of new customers, number of return customers, number of new contacts)
- Set and commit to a schedule for review during the term
2. Review
To help ensure your BPP stays current and is successful, set a calendar, with specific times allotted to assess the program:
- Schedule a consistent time for a brief review of the BPP on your own or with your team
- Evaluate the outcomes based on the established KPI's
- Meet with (phone/in person) your BPP contact based on your business cycles and offers (monthly, quarterly) to ensure content is current and in alignment with seasons, products and services
3. Engage
The BPP contact may reach out throughout the term with ideas, suggestions, metrics and maybe even special opportunities that arise to further promote your business:
- Advise your BPP contact of the best way to reach you (email, phone)
- Review the information in a timely manner. The information may be time sensitive and have unique ways to boost your exposure in the program
- Let your BPP contact know if there are ways they can help, make changes or additions to support you
By setting up your schedule of offers in advance, dedicating a little time every month, measuring results, making changes and staying engaged with your BPP contact, you will be able to ensure you are getting the results you want for your business!

Saban Films has acquired North American rights to Brad Silberling's "An Ordinary Man," starring Ben Kingsley and Hera Hilmar.
The war thriller was produced by Rick Dugdale for Enderby Entertainment, and Kingsley and Silberling. Saban Films is planning a theatrical release in the second quarter.
Silberling directed from his own script. "An Ordinary Man" follows a war criminal in hiding who forms a relationship with his only connection to the outside world — his maid. Peter Serafinowicz and Robert Blythe also star.
"Sir Ben Kingsley is the epitome of class, boldness, and exalting talent," said Saban Films' Bill Bromiley. "He has truly captivated us with 'An Ordinary Man.'"
Daniel Petrie Jr. executive produced the film. Ness Saban and Bromiley negotiated the deal on behalf of Saban Films.
"An Ordinary Man" had been in development for many years. Liam Neeson had been in the lead in its first iteration in 2009. Brendan Gleeson and Abbie Cornish were in the lead roles in 2012. The movie was shot in Belgrade, Serbia, in late 2015 and early 2016.
Saban Films was launched in 2014 as a boutique North American acquisition and distribution company based in Los Angeles. It recently acquired Craig William Macneill's "Lizzie," starring Chloë Sevigny and Kristen Stewart, during the Sundance Film Festival.

My parents haven't seen snow, and they are here in So Cal for the first time in a Winter season. I'd like to take them on a day trip to the mountains, and would really appreciate any recommendations that you can think of.
Tips and recommendations on places to eat, visit, routes are very useful.
Big Bear Lake is great for a one day trip to the snow.
Bear Mountain Resort is great for snowboarding. There is also Snow Summit. Both places have ski and snowboard rentals available. You can drive around the whole lake but shops and places to eat will be on CA-18 side of the lake.
I always take the I-210 E to the CA-330 N to teh CA-18, it should take about 2 hours from the Los Angeles area.
Mentioned in this answer:
It all comes down to how much time you have an how far you want to drive. The closest to LA to see snow would be Mt Baldy. It's close. But snow is super dependent on weather. If we get a big storm you can have your parents in the snow in an hour and half drive.
Mountain High is also close and an option.
Next closest would be Big Bear Lake area. This will take 2.5 hours depending on where you're coming from. But again there isn't snow all winter in the town typically. You should wait a good storm to come through to give them a good snow experience.
Mammoth Mountain Ski Area is a big commitment to just see some snow. However if you wanted to make the drive up there to stay for a weekend and tour around some sights it's a beautiful part of California. Stop and take some photos of Mt Whitney (tallest mountain in the US). I'd recommend the drive out to June Lake and take the scenic June Lake Loop which takes you past a few pretty mountain lakes. Also worth seeing is Mono Lake and stop for a bite to eat at the best gas station food you'll eat at the Whoa Nellie Deli. It's so solid you can't believe you're at a gas station.
Mentioned in this answer:
I would head up to Mammoth Lakes! I haven't been up this season yet but I've heard it has been beautiful with a decent amount of snow.
For places to eat, check out Mammoth Tavern - Mammoth, The Mogul Restaurant or Petra's Bistro & Wine Bar-pricey, but nice places.
Last time I went up to Mammoth, I stopped at the Mammoth hot springs in Hot Creek Ranch or Wild Willy's Hot Spring, about a 15-20 min drive east of Mammoth Lakes. So worth it. You get a stunning view of the mountain while you relax in nature's hot tub.
Mentioned in this answer:
Big Bear Lake is probably your easiest and best bet at 2.5 hours away if you only want to make a day trip of it. The mountain resort posts the snow resort and have live cameras of the mountain, so you can double check and see if there is plenty of snow before making the trek. You'll more than likely have to head to the mountain resort for a full snow experience.
As far as food goes, Grizzly Manor Cafe is a local favorite. Basic and reasonably priced mom-and-pop dining. Big Bear Mountain Brewery could be a nice end to the day.

Big Bear City is like 2-3 hours away from downtown los angeles, should be good for one day back and forth first timers :)
Mentioned in this answer:
Check out Big Bear Lake! The lake is beautiful in the winter and the there are tons of small shops and restaurants one of the best being Sweet Basil Bistro. Sledding and Snow Summit close by too!
Mentioned in this answer:
You should rent a cottage in Big Bear Lake. It's a great place to visit in winter time. There are some nice slopes there too.

Record crowds turn out for return of Crank Up event
PUBLISHED: 09:45 14 May 2019 | UPDATED: 08:36 15 May 2019
Copyright © 2019 Celia Bartlett Photography. All rights reserved.
Some 3,000 visitors, a record crowd, visited The Saffron Walden Crank Up show, a festival of steam vehicles over the weekend of Saturday and Sunday May 11 and 12 at Just Like Wendy's in Sparrows Hill, Newport.
Highly popular was the exhibition of mobile living including bow top Gypsy waggon. This is the fifth year that the revived event has taken place, organised by The East Anglian Traction Engine Society, which took over the event.
From the 1970s until the early 2000s, enthusiasts flocked to Saffron Walden for the popular Crank Up events organised by Paul Engelmann at his Shire Hill home. Exhibits include steam engines, miniature engines, vintage vehicles and tractors, stationary engines, bygones and a host of other attractions.
Spokesman John Hunt said: "It went very well, this was our best attendance ever with lots of exhibits. Usually people come along have a look around and go but this year stayed longer. For the first time this year, we will be making a donation of £500 to a local good cause."
Next year's Crank Up will be at Carver Barracks over the weekend of April 25/26.

The Slim Wallet is your essentials; no more, no less. It goes where you go, carries what you need, and fits virtually anywhere. Built to last from rugged, top-grain leather, The Slim Wallet keeps your cards at the ready in two easy-access slots.
Measuring 3 1/2 inches in length and 3 inches in width. This item has been saddle stitched. While regular lock stitches have only one thread running along either side, a saddle stitch runs two sets of stitching along the same holes. If one breaks, the other remains intact unlike a machine stitch that will begin to unravel. This results in a far superior and longer lasting product.
*While every effort is made to craft as close to the product photo as possible no two will be exactly the same. Leather is a natural material and you can expect variations in color or natural markings which lend to the uniqueness of each piece.

Birdie above Upper Beacon on 10490.0 MHz
I can confirm the carrier. It has been on the upper beacon since day one. The carrier is not visible/audible on the IS0GRB websdr. That's indeed a bit strange Like DK8KW said this looks like a locally generated carrier. My RX setup is similar to the setup at Goonhilly, we both use the AIRSPY SDR. Another mystery to investigate ....
de Greg DF2IC
for those with extra carriers: have you locked your setup to an external reference? 10490.000 is an even multiplier when running with 10 MHz ref so it might be an internal birdie.
See attached picture, IF-display, yellow arrow. Are we talking about this? This is even there, when i remove power from my lnb, so i suspect
it is generated in the RTL-dongle. Depending on the accuracy of the 25Mhz reference fed to the lnb, this carrier was above the beacon before i removed power, was there when power was removed and is there below the beacon now that i restored power. It is slowly drifting further down and i am sure it will be above the beacon again when everything has warmed up again. No 10Mhz reference here when i tested it, just a homemade 25mhz reference , rtl-dongle and sdr-console. I have an older screenshot from a while back before the transponder was widened up, the carrier already was there. Will make another screenshot when it has moved to it's "original" position.
Hi Martin, yes I think that is it. If it stays without LNB power, it's certainly a RX birdie. Try to change RX frequency a few 100 kHz up and down, for me this changes the absolute birdie positions significantly (they might be aliases of the digital sampling).
The joy of digital receivers
Same thing on my AIRSPY SDR... when I turn LNB Power Off, the birdie is still there....
DB2OSChanged the title of the thread from "Extra carrier in top experimental beacon?" to "Birdie above Upper Beacon on 10490.0 MHz".

"Oh, this is so nice," a guest said upon entering the ballroom at the Pierre Hotel for the Museum of the City of New York's Winter Ball. Most guests were a little taken aback — after all, it's been a quiet few months since the fall New York's gala scene, and perhaps attendees were out of practice. Partygoers including Nicky Hilton, Adam Lippes, Alex Rosen, Nicole Miller, Lauren Remington Platt and Jamee Gregory gathered inside the reception hall — a veritable sea of Oscar de la Renta (the event was sponsored by Oscar de la Renta and James de Givenchy's jewelry line, Taffin).
This story first appeared in the February 25, 2016 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
"That's what I love about the house, is they really support their own city," Peter Copping said of the sponsorship. "So it's nice to come to these events. I came last year and I'd only just been here in New York for a little while so it's nice to be back. I still feel a little new, though, I have to say."
Nicky Hilton, clad in a lace-overlaid de la Renta column, raved about Copping's designs. "They're just so classic and beautiful and feminine," she said. Hilton and her husband, James Rothschild, revealed last month that they are expecting their first child. Her Tuesday night outing might be one of the few remaining as she prepares for motherhood. "I have some traveling coming up, to Hong Kong and Europe, but after that I'm going to try and minimize travel as much as possible," she said.
The evening marked the 31st anniversary of the ball, which has benefited the ongoing renovations to the museum. "I remember being at the museum years ago up on the third floor in the office and having birds flying in and out," the chairman of the ball, Mark Gilbertson, said. "And now if you've been up there, it is pretty damn fancy."
Gilbertson unveiled three winners of the "incentive prizes," which included, humorously, an Oscar de la Renta dress for Pepe Fanjul, whose wife Emilia might be more excited about the win than he was. "I'm sure Emilia will enjoy having yet another Oscar de la Renta dress," Gilbertson said.

Sienna Rose Murphy. Aaah! We'd finally come up with a name. I glanced inside that tender cradle, to see those lovely luminous eyes. This had become a routine. I couldn't get enough of that clear night sky in her wide, scintillating eyes. It was as if all of a sudden, everything had changed. My faith in miracles had restored. And after what seemed like a lifetime, I was smiling again. But in all this exuberance, celebration and merry, I will accept, that a thought did strike my mind, no matter how much I denied it. I used to wonder, what will I tell her when she's old enough and starts to question the obvious. Will she be a rebel, like those kids they show on tv? Pierced, tattooed. Short hair? Coming home late at night and scuttling straight to her room upstairs? A bunch of useless friends with probably no ambition. But one thought shuddered me. What will happen when she seeks for the answers. Answers I know I can't hide for long. Will she come in terms with us? What if she runs away .. ? I felt a chill down my spine.
16 Years Later.
A cold wind brushed against my hair. My balcony was always a wonderful place to meditate. Harold always had a thing for plants. He'd sometimes tease me that he could marry a plant if he could. Not that I was ever jealous. I always knew he wouldn't give me away for anything in this entire universe.
He had planted a Jasmine in our garden that had climbed and made it's way to our balcony. It was a fresh fragrance. Exotic and sweet. It filtered the air around me and after a quite loud and stale hour inside the room, I was rejuvenated again. I decided to go inside as people had started to search for me. It was Sienna's 16th birthday party.
And it was like magic how time had passed. I'm extremely delightful to say that Sienna didn't turn out to be the Gothic, drunken teenager I warned myself about. She was a sweetheart. A beautiful brunette with a kind and warm embrace. She was adored by everyone. A lovely girl with no smell of arrogance, rebellion or disrespect for anyone. She left tokens of her cheer wherever she went. Her mellifluous giggles were a treat to people around her.
Sienna was 12 when I discovered what she had in her. I was cleaning her room when I saw one of her notebook's. She had sketched almost whole of the city. Every building, every fountain on the crossroads. Students of her class, her teacher. EVERY DETAIL. Flowers, birds, and some absolutely impeccable work I couldn't even understand.
"There you are?! I've been searching for you all around!", said Sienna almost out of breath.
"I'm sorry, I didn't realize, I've been here for that long", I said with a slight shrug of guilt.
"That's all right, it's almost time to cut the cake, I need you with me Mom. Come'on let's go"
She took my hand and moved forward, but I stayed. She turned around and was puzzled to see the mixed emotions on my face. "What's wrong?" I just stared at her with content, fear, love and pride. I couldn't find the right words but out of God knows which of the trillion emotions, I managed to throw, "You know that we all love you right?"
"Yes! Of course" she said, almost sympathetic but still befuddled. I gave her forehead a brief kiss and we tagged along to the living room with the beautiful, majestic cake!
Sienna didn't have many friends at school. This fact worried me a lot. Although she persuaded me that she was okay. But I couldn't come in terms with it. I know I just told you that she was a lively and free-spirited girl, but somehow at school, she was different. Plus, when I had asked her to enroll for the art class, she had very kindly rejected the offer. I couldn't understand. So I dropped the topic.
Next Morning. Monday, 15th of July.
"Bye Mom" I waved at her putting my car into reverse. I always thought what went on in her mind. Why was she so worried all the time. And it wasn't just the worry that bothered me. It was something else. Like she was scared of something she was keeping me ignorant from. I parked my car and made my way to the most ugliest place on Earth. SCHOOL. If there's any place I hated from my heart, it was this godforsaken place. I've spent most of my years alone on a bench in the cafeteria or library. I had told mom that I had 2-3 friends at school, but the truth is, I had none. ZERO.
It wasn't because I couldn't talk, I just thought these people were the most selfish people on the planet. You see, I have this ME inside my brain, I like to call it "The Observer." This is my voice that helps me form opinions. I keep observing as I walk to my class. Plastic, skinny girls considering themselves to be the "Hot-Stuff". Lame guys hitting on these plastic girls. Thinking themselves to the best. Assigning nick-names to people. Well, mine was "Weirdo Sketcher". Not that it ever bother me. These people were too immature to irritate me anyway. Bullying. Random groups. God! I hated this place.
I came and sat on the last bench. Unpacking my kit to sketch as the class hadn't started yet. I began to complete the portrait of the Maple tree that caught my eye yesterday.
"Wow, that's some really cool stuff" I almost dropped my pencil and stumbled upon my table. I looked up to see a tall red-head with amazing brown eyes. "You know, you really should put this on display"
"yeah, thanks." I replied, confused and a little nervous I don't know why. "I'm Dean." He sat down on the table next to me.
It dawned upon me, that I hadn't seen this guy before. "You're new here?"
"Yeah. Actually I got transferred from Carolina. You know. New Place. New Apartment. Moving on and stuff." I noticed a slight discomfort in his voice. So I quickly changed the topic. "So ..you made any new friends?", I asked hesitantly. "No, you're actually the first." I found a slight relief and pride to be his "First Friend" although I have no frikin idea why. "Yeah, you're my first friend too."
"Wait .. For how long you've been studying here?" , he asked with an element of surprise that was expected.
"Since Kindergarten?" I tried a failed attempt to hide my awkwardness. "What? You have NO FRIENDS and you've been here since 15 years?"
"That's..well..WEIRD", he said with a slight amusement.
"Yeah, people usually call me that."
I'm so glad our conversation was put to an end by the history class. As soon as the bell rang, within seconds I found myself rushing back home in my car. Daring not to bump into Dean.
That night, my mother was constantly forcing me to take part in the Annual Art Fest organised by my school. And like every time, I was refusing. But I noticed this was something she really wanted me to do. Recklessly, I enrolled myself on our college website. The competition wasn't until Friday, and I had a whole week. I started sketching my heart out. I don't think I told you this before, but there's a reason I never showed my work to people around me. I think they'll never understand the true beauty of it. The peace it gives me inside. The cool and calm I breathe through my soul. I unburden myself through my sketches. Through this, I connect with myself. And a mere applause and monetary rewards will NEVER be able to balance it's worth for me. I completed 15 sketches in 1 week. And while I stood on stage with a dead silence in the hall I looked above, beside, below but never in front.
As I returned home proudly with the winning trophy, I wondered if Dean was in the crowd. But the thought wavered away as soon as I reached my place. My mom hugged me but somehow, she didn't seem as delighted as I thought she'd be. "Sit down, Sienna." I couldn't understand. "I think it's high time we tell you the truth." She looked exhausted, helpless. I had no idea what was in store for me.
"You're not our daughter, Sienna."
For a fraction of second, I thought I'd misheard. But she meant it. I hadn't been more scared and surprised in my life. "You're kidding right?" I said. Expecting her to change her answer.
"Do you possibly think I would?" she said with a lump in her throat.
I felt nauseous. I couldn't breathe. I was numb with complete disbelief. "And you're telling me this..NOW?!"
"We were just waiting for the right time"
"And you thought, NOW was a good time?!!", I yelled at her shaking her a bit.
That was it. I couldn't think of anything else. A part of me knew it wasn't her fault. But a part of me hated her for separating me from my real parents. I couldn't endure this hysteria. I had to get back my posture. I burst open the door and staggered my way out. I could imagine my helpless mother behind me. I chose not to look back. I sat on the over-bridge. Alone. Tears drifting down my face, warming my cheeks.
"You know you really shouldn't be here all by yourself." I recognized that voice. It was Dean! I was too weak and vulnerable to ask him how he got here. "I went to your place to congratulate you. Your mom told me I'd find you here."
"So, I know this is personal, but you're mad at your mom, for what?"
"She lied to me!!??"
"Okay, but did you consider it even once, that why she did it. Did you not notice that in all these years you couldn't have a single doubt, that's how much she loved you. She has supported you just like every mother should. She has done all her duties towards you. She told you the truth when you were mature enough. You should think this through before making a final decision. But as for now, you should go home. It's cold ..and dark.and well..I'm hungry"
I went home and saw my mother waiting for me by the fireplace. And sat down near her. There was a silence, not an awkward one. But a rather warm silence.
"You know you were just a little baby when we found you." she said, her eyes fixed upon the fireplace. "You were so beautiful." she closed her eyes and a tear rolled down her wrinkled skin. "We were having a normal walk on the beach when we saw a small little thing rolled in white cloth under a bamboo tree. When we went near it we found you lying there. We were surprised as to how could someone leave a baby at an odd and dangerous place like this. You were so weak. And undernourished. We took you home and took care of you. We made you healthy.
I wasn't blessed with a child of my own so I took immense care of you. Treating you like my own. When you were healthy enough we went to the childcare community to send you where you belong. But no whereabouts could be found about your family. So we decided to adopt you. I swear to you Sienna, there's no one in this world I love more than you. I nurtured you and always thought of you as my own. And even if you choose to walk away from me today, I will accept it, because I don't want to imprison you. And if leaving us makes you happy then I'll let you go."
I listened to every word. Remorse. Guilt. My eyes brimmed with tears. "I'm not going anywhere Mom."
So, this is Me. I'm Sienna Rose Murphy. Proud daughter of Jane and Harold Murphy. I sketch stuff that I like. I have a best friend/crush named Dean. I have started making friends now and I find that it's not that bad. I love all the few friends I've made. But there's no one in this world I value and love more than my parents. And yes, I sketch quite often now and my works are displayed in the local carnival every spring.
