The two blackbirds seem lost in each other's company, even as they stand still in time and space. Titled "Awas Tegangan Tinggi" (Beware! High Voltage), their ardent chemistry is literally cast in iron by their creator, Indonesian artist Patrick Wowor.
"Like other birds, the blackbirds stand for freedom, as they fly off when they please. But in this case, their pose symbolizes the strong undercurrent of love and other strong emotions between two individuals," said Patrick of his latest work, which was inspired by blackbirds converging on power lines in the US city of Seattle, a sight that reminded him of society's communal spirit.
He approached the theme with none of the negative connotations associated with blackbirds in folklore, whether in Indonesia or elsewhere, as typified by Edgar Allan Poe's famous poem, "The Raven".
"'Awas Tegangan Tinggi' is a departure from my previous work, most of which were paintings," said Patrick, who divides his time between Jakarta and Seattle. "I made it with a giddiness and joy that one would feel with a new toy."
But curator Afrizal Malna finds a sinister edge to "Awas Tegangan Tinggi", not least because of its bare-bones appearance. "It looks torn down to the bones," he noted. "The sculpture shows how civilization can bring out the savage side of nature, as if nature is a vulnerable creature lost in today's civilization."
Unveiling the creative journey
"Awas Tegangan Tinggi" is a highlight of the eponymously named exhibition of Patrick's latest artwork, which was recently displayed at the Cemara 6 gallery and museum.
The artworks in Awas Tegangan Tinggi seeks to reach out to viewers by "breaking the fourth wall" between the audience and Patrick's art.

"I believe that art's scope is limitless. It can be as open as possible," said the Jakarta Institute of Fine Arts alumnus, who has been exhibiting in Jakarta and Seattle since 2005. "I first explored this concept with my exhibition Open Studio, which I held at Balai Budaja in 2014. While it was a homage to the place's significance in modern Indonesian art, the gallery's dilapidated state perfectly replicates an art studio."
"Awas Tegangan Tinggi and Open Studio are similar because they highlight the creative process, not the finished work. This is different from the mindset of many Indonesians who focus more on the result, not the process, which they tend to take for granted," lamented Patrick. "Like life, one savors the journey – or rather, the creative process. I create art for its own sake, not because of a need to exhibit."
Despite the insight it offers into Patrick's work and his ongoing development as an artist, Awas Tegangan Tinggi is a different animal compared to Open Studio and his other exhibitions. "Awas Tegangan Tinggi alludes to how we respond to life's pressures and challenges. Its also describes how we know our strengths and weaknesses," Patrick said. "It warns about high voltage or high pressure, making it more imperative for us to determine whether we are strong enough to face those challenges."

Patrick's mixed media installation "Entah" (Either) epitomizes these thoughts. Using a suitcase as his canvas, the centerpiece opens a hole that seems to challenge the viewer to go and find out what's on the other side. "'Entah' is a metaphor for life as journey. Like life or other voyages taken spontaneously, it symbolizes the unknown directions that it will take," he explained.

"Like those journeys, one has to let it unfold naturally and still take control, which is a dichotomy I address in my work," he said. "As with the other artwork in Awas Tegangan Tinggi, 'Entah' is at ease with the dark. Darkness balances light, so it's neither negative nor something to fear; fear of the dark reflects public concerns about uncertainty and uncomfortable truths."
Stepping up to new forms
As seen in the title sculpture, "Awas Tegangan Tinggi" sees Patrick stepping out of his comfort zone of painting and trying out new artistic mediums. Among them are his "Black bird" [sic] linocut-on-paper series, whose stark, sparse, yet striking lines evoke the works of Pedro Joseph de Lemos.

Featuring various views of blackbirds, the illustrations manage to turn the idea of perspectives on its head.
"The birds' faces are always positioned toward certain directions, presenting a nonexistent space as the space missing from the bird's habitat," Afrizal noted.
The linocuts "Black bird #2" and "Black bird #3" epitomize this premise. The birds stare back with fascination at passersby, just as humans would in their habitat, leaving one to wonder what the birds are thinking.
Other works, like Patrick's "Garis Langit #1-#18" and "Bardo", see Patrick put a twist on the mundane and everyday. "The study of lines in my works was based on electrical lines and the patterns that they make on the urban skyline. The more I look at them, the more I notice their symmetry," Patrick said of the theme, which he first encountered in Seattle. "They might seem to be disorderly, but their structure does have a pattern, logic and will that are subtle and intangible. Applied to human figures, the lines show how governments silence the public, though for the most part [the artwork] are studies."

Patrick pointed out that his work in Awas Tegangan Tinggi, as well as in prior exhibitions, reflect his conflict between needing to control or allowing the creative process take its course, as well as getting ahead of the curve. "Reinvention plays a big role in my work, as does unpredictability. I also seek to instill an element of surprise," he said. "If I lose the element of surprise, I'd rather destroy the work."
Patrick added that he would continue to exhibit his work in Jakarta and Seattle, though he has a particularly soft spot for the former.
"Jakarta provides a spark for my work, perhaps because of its changes and raw energy, and the potential Indonesians have to connect with my work right away, despite their reluctance to step out of their comfort zone, while American viewers might take a while to grasp my concepts," he said. "I am also exploring new ideas, among them the notion of the bathroom as a meditative space where we can get our ideas and inspiration. This contrasts with the long-held belief of the bathroom as a defiled place that is all but taboo."
How Patrick intends to convey his concepts or when remains to be seen. But if his previous works are a measure, they are certainly worth looking forward to. (kes)

a multiplayer game of parenting and civilization building
You are not logged in.
Pages: 1
Multiple players are currently experiencing mild to severe server lag long before the servers reach their capacity.
Under normal circumstances these past days, all servers with about 100+ players suffered from mild lag.
As of right now, the only active server, which currently holds about 70 players, is becoming unplayable due to severe lag.
Actions take multiple times longer than intended -
Metalworking? Forget about it.
Bumped into a tree? That's 5 seconds to grab a leaf.
Following people? Sorry, not gonna happen - everyone transports via 2-screen teleportation.
Feeding a baby and doing something else? - Nope, that's up to 15s to swap between babies and objects.
Clients are also starting to de-sync, which worsens the situation even more.
Those 5 seconds you spent trying to desperately pick up a carrot? It was actually long gone!
Map suddenly updates, moving multiple items on the floor around.
Even though I don't like the all caps title - he's unfortunately right. The game is absolutely amazing - however, lag and desync make it pretty hard to enjoy it at some points.
Constructive criticism:
Would a "possibility check" hurt the game's performance? E.g. if I'm holding a basket, why does my character even start bumping trees when I click on one? It's an "impossible" action after all. It would make the lag much less annoying.

bahahahah sorry for the caps - but honestly, I've barely been able to enjoy the game in the past two days due to severe server lag and client de-syncs, which saddens me greatly.
As of posting time, my game has been lagging a lot. It's the first time it's been this bad for me. You die unexpectedly from hunger and seem to move very slow.
(It appears a computer reset solved the problem. Shrug)

This was fixed for the time being by reducing the population cap on the servers.
Sorry to tell you, but... I still bump trees for 15-30 seconds on a regular basis, so in my opinion it's not fixed at all.
I had a short look at the code and if I understood correctly, whenever interacting with a tile you get the tile's content first? Couldn't you save that server call and instead just submit your "planned" command to the server and the server
a) executes it and returns the result
b) rejects it if it's not valid
I don't want to tell you how to program your game, though, and DEFINITELY don't want to seem rude.
The bumping for 15-30 seconds is a different bug that isn't lag related. It's a bug where the client tells the server that you want to do something but never gets a response telling the client that the action happened. So you bounce forever, waiting for the response.
And no, there are NOT two round-trips when you ask the server to do something. There is simply a USE message that is sent right away, and the player responds with a PU (player update) message telling you what happened.
You already have the map client-side, so your client doesn't need to check what's there before sending a USE action.
... I see! Guess my look at the code was not close enough - sorry 'bout that!
And thanks a lot for your explanation!
Desync keeps happening all the time. I just raised a village, and half my grandkids were invisible.
For me this is lag is happening at peek player times, such as when little kids get out of school around 3-4 eastern, and on the weekends. I think I'm just not even going to try to play during peek times until these bugs can be fixed. It's not enjoyable when I'm literally holding a child in my hand, have a thriving civilization built, and it dies. For a game that is so time sensitive, even the slightest lag of not being able to feed yourself when you're low on hunger makes it literally unplayable. I can't even imagine how quickly this game will die in popularity if hackers start DDoSing it. Lag due to unexpected player capacity or DDoSing can ruin games. It happened to me in Archeage and in Albion online . Albion online got 10 times the amount of players they estimated in their worst case scenario that they'd have to support from their beta tests. The lag when the game came out was unbearable. Yet again in a game where dying means you lose literally everything you're carring (full loot), it was not a fun experience. Good luck with the bug fixes. I'll hang in there and try to play around the spikes.

I have never liked duck, but I have always wanted to, so when I saw mention of the Braised Duck Noodles at Vis, I thought it was a chance for a good duck experience, and an excuse to go to Vi's.
The star-anise soup base is served with regular pho sides of bean sprouts and cilantro. I added my usual Siriracha and hoisen sauce. It has egg noodle, and a whole duck leg including thigh.
I was concerned at first of the fully intact duck leg at first because while my chopstick skills are decent, they are far from good. This did not present itself a problem as the duck came easily off of the bone. I found it best to take all of the duck off and mix it with the soup. The duck tasted great, and it did not have any of the unpleasant oiliness or unpleasant aftertaste that I had experienced in past duck outings. While the dish would not go in my top ten list, I enjoyed the dish, and would eat it again. It was my first enjoyable duck dish, and I can honestly say I thought it was yummy.

Good evening,
When it comes to the weather I think that for most people in the UK our instinct is to complain & we'll be given plenty of opportunity to do that over the next few days. Topics obviously change with the seasons (a sunless summer/autumn storms/the recent wet weather) & the main theme on the train in to London this morning was the ice in the roads in our neck of the woods.
Apparently the roads were pretty treacherous yesterday afternoon & near lethal this morning. I'm guessing that this applies to the more minor roads, because all the local councils have had ample warning of the current cold snap & the gritters should certainly have been out in force. They'll be out again now because the most significant snow of the winter so far will be hitting the south-east later tonight. It may well look like a winter wonderland when we all climb out of our beds tomorrow, but if we're not to have a collective sense of humour loss (something I'm never guilty of....) the roads will need to be passable.
Hope to see you later,

Grow lights are an essential part of every user-oriented hydroponics setup. Due to the indispensable roles that a grow room's lighting appliances play, it is extremely vital to select a package that features the most effective internal lighting options. As such, highlighted below are a few strong reasons to go for one of the most reliable products in this category – A K5-XL750 Kind LED grow lighting systems . Continue reading to learn the top 4 benefits of this impressive grow light package.
1. Greater Output per Watt
To begin with, A K5-XL750 Kind LED grow lighting devices top the list of the most dependable grow enclosure lighting options out there. This is majorly because the use an estimated half as much electricity as HPS lights. Unlike other products under the same category, these lights produce a great deal more output per watt.
2. Less Heat
Since your grow rooms temperatures must be well-regulated for conducive growth conditions, it is good to select these lights because they do not emit a lot of heat. Therefore, the package is unprecedentedly apt for growers of some highly delicate varieties such as seasonal flowers.
3. No Need for Additional In-Built Cooling Devices
Given the fact these lights produce minimal heat, there is absolutely no need for internal cooling devices. This reduces your overall maintenance costs, besides keeping noise pollution entirely out of the question. This also makes the devices easier to handle and use, especially for inexperienced beginners who may get somewhat baffled by the sheer complexity of an alternative that contains in-built cooling flanges.
4. Efficient & Durable
As a result of its superior components and technical design, these grow lights are globally renowned for larger yields and less manual input. Similarly, the expertly assembled appliance is relatively hardwearing and generally outlasts most other brands in the hydroponics industry. Without doubt, these two rank high as some of strongest explanations for the worldwide popularity of these grow lights.

Why doesn't my silence button work anymore?
When flipping the switch to silent, the "silent" and "non-silent" icons flash on the screen at random times. The phone will only stay silent for a few minutes or less at a time although it is set on silent. How would one fix this? The phone has not been damaged or exposed to moisture. It just started one day.
Is this a good question?
I noticed you never got an answer to this. Are you still having this problem?
Thank you. Yes, I think the connection is loose, but I am too scared to open it up and take it apart. I've gotten used to it and just use headphones when needing to silence it. Still, I would be happy to hear some suggestions if any.
== This is ==
a DIY site - if you're not comfortable doing it yourself print out the guide and take it to an electronics repair shop that will do it for you.
If this answer was helpful please remember to mark it accepted.
Good Luck,
I took it apart following the Vibrate/Ring Switch guide. Everything seemed to be connected properly, so I jiggled some pieces around and put it back together. The silence worked for the first hour, then after changing it back to ring it reverted back to the original issue (flash the silence ring back-and-forth and vibrate if vibrate is on). Not sure what needs to be replaced.
My mute button will not let my calls come in

Firefall Dreadnaught Tips
Firefall Dreadnaught Tips by Lifeguard
Here's a list of Dreadnaught stuff for PVE encounters. Some of it might apply to PVP but none of this has been written based on PVP experience.
1. You're a short-medium range user. Don't try to fight enemies that can fight back from afar (30-40+ meters), you'll waste more ammo than do actual damage. If you don't see a solid stream of damage numbers jumping out of your enemes, get closer. Pick an easy target and start shooting at it, and get an idea for yourself about what this means.
2. Always be moving (strafing) and using jumpjets while firing. This is mainly a shooter, when the enemy shoots something at you it won't lock on and home in on you if you move away. Play this like you would play Counter Strike or Halo: use cover, and if cover is unavailable, use movement/jumpjets to dodge bullets/mortars/enemies. Don't think MMO, think Shooter game.
Jumpjets are a great way to avoid/reduce mortar damage by timing it with enemy attacks, don't fly around just for the sake of flying (unless you really enjoy flying).
3. Time your abilities: don't use Repulsor Blast or Explosive ammo against one enemy when you're fighting 4-5+ at the same time, try to group them together by hiding behind cover and making them chase you, waiting for your opportunity and blast them. You can use Thunderdome to make them mass outside it, then when it fades, blast em.
4. If you can destroy something from a longer range while using cover or terrain advantage, do it, ex: Chosen Drop Pods. It might take longer, but it'll be easier. Don't always charge in if you don't absolutely have to, even if you're doing lower damage and it takes more time.
5. Thunderdome and Gravity Well can be used as improvised cover or reloading spots against ranged enemies. Place them between yourself and your enemy and do your reloading/healing packs call-in inside/behind them. Thunderdome works better, and can also be used to block enemies.
6. Thunderdome and Gravity Well stops both friendly and enemy projectiles. Be careful when using them, especially on fights like Baneclaw, since they can block your allies' shots on the boss for a few seconds. They're also good abilities to place behind you while running away to escape, and when reviving allies.
7. Shotgun is great at pointblank range against single targets, useless otherwise. It has no secondary fire for now.
8. Machinegun is your best overall weapon in a large fight. Learn to use it by strafing and mixing it with your abilities without switching to secondary weapons unless the situation absolutely calls for it/you're out of ammo with no options.
9. Grenade launcher is a good weapon for clustered groups of enemies and single target, but if you miss, the penalty will be higher than if you miss a few bullets with a machinegun. It only shoots one grenade at a time with around 1-1.5ish second intervals. It has a secondary fire that bounces the grenade before it explodes and which has a higher rate of fire.
It's a great weapon to shoot from cover, because of its arc and good damage on direct impact.
10. You can destroy a bunch of small enemies with one hit from the Thumper Scanner hammer, it does AOE damage. It's fun. Use it on explosive workers if you wanna go out in a blaze of glory.
11. You're one of the toughest classes in Firefall, try to pull enemies off of your friends. I don't mean this as a tank role, but if you see classes like Recons getting swarmed by enemies around them, jump in and Repulsor Blast them off or throw a Thunderdome around bigger enemies like Rageclaws to give time to your allies to run away and reposition.
12. I don't use Turret Mode, it kind of goes against everything else I do as a Dredd. It's good for Baneclaw/Tornado boss fights and shooting from semi-cover though, but that's not what I usually end up doing as a Dreadnaught. Even for Tornadoes I do fine without it, since I have to move around a lot to pull enemy spawns.
13. (New) Call in your LGV from Commander pack/saving LGV missions as temporary cover. You can use it to cover one of your flanks when you're surrounded. Use CTRL to crouch and use this to greater effect.
14. (New) Heavy Armour can be used the same way as Thunderdome/Gravity Well, except its benefit is for you only, it cannot help allies unless they hide behind you in a perfect line.Other Firefall Articles

Well – would you believe it – but Emile Heskey is about to sign a deal at Newcastle.
Emile Heskey – to sign for Newcastle
Sorry, but I just couldn't resist putting this out – and of course Emile Heskey, who is now a free agent after his contract ran out at Aston Villa in the summer, is indeed going to sign for Newcastle.
But it's not the great Newcastle United, but the Newcastle Jets down under.
That's where a number of former top players finish out their careers these days with former Liverpool striker Robbie Fowler doing that recently when he played for the North Queensland Fury and the Perth Glory – love those names!
Emile is now 34 and in his career he's played 696 club games and scored 151 goals, and has played for Leicester City, Liverpool, Birmingham City, Wigan Athletic and Aston Villa and presumably will have one last fling with Newcastle.
Emile also played as a striker 62 times for England but scored only 7 goals, and that was always a criticism of the striker – he didn't score enough goals.
Sorry to be so frivolous, and I'll try to get serious again – very serious – just as soon as I can – promise. 😀

Newcastle KB United- the footballers graveyard- don't do it Emile, don't do it!!!!
Saw heskey single handedly run the Toon ragged playing for Leceister at St James' – he was 16 years old and unplayable. People forget that as a youngster he was truly gifted. Had the magic drilled out of him, so he could do the donkey work up front for so called big clubs.
Squad for euro game tomorrow
Mehdi Abeid , Romain Amalfitano, Sammy Ameobi , Shola Ameobi , Vurnon Anita , Gael Bigirimana , Adam Campbell, Rob Elliot , Shane Ferguson , Dan Gosling , Steve Harper , Sylvain Marveaux , Gabriel Obertan , James Perch , Davide Santon , James Tavernier , Steven Taylor , Haris Vuckic , Mike Williamson
Anita's awful wee!
Villa had an excellent fullback who was literally 5foot 2, played heaps of games for them, can't remember his name.
And Hartlepools had a lad pulling the strings in the middle of the park who I swear was nowhere near 5 foot tall. Saw him play in a cup game against Darlo, I thought he was the mascot and that somehow a mistake had been made but he totally bossed the game. That was only about 7 years ago, I wonder what happened to him.

I Watched from the Dirt Road
Title From: Fire Red Horse by The Lone Bellow
Where My Heart Can Roam
This is one of my favorite photographs from our nomadic summer. I'd like to have a print made to hang around these barren walls but, as I said before, I don't usually keep track of the original full-size images I finally choose among them all, which I find very annoying about myself at this moment. It's our favored campsite on the BLM land near Castle Gardens, outside of Ten Sleep, Wyoming. There was something about the smell of the sagebrush, the open range, the red hills in the distance, and the solitary feeling that appealed to us. If I could build a home anywhere on Earth, it would be right there. Title From: Weathervane by Miner
Where the Fields Are Painted Gold
Title From: Bloom by The Paper Kites
And May You Need Never to Banish Misfortune
Things are troublesome here at the moment. When I wrote the mini bio for this blog I said, "the hovel I call home," but hovel was written about 60% in jest. A hovel is defined, according to dictionary.com, as "a small, very humble dwelling house; a wretched hut." Originally, I was hinting at the humble dwelling portion of that definition, now we're approaching the wretched hut portion. Our bedroom floor has collapsed. I can't believe I have had to write that sentence. Now, to avoid giving the wrong impression, our bedroom floor isn't caved in with all the contents in a heap down a giant crack through the room. There are support beams that remain intact and some portions of the floor are still holding solid. However, one 1.5′ x 2.5′ section is now carpet covering a void. I can thwump it like a trampoline. I don't know how deep the hole goes but it's definitely a hole. Multiple other sections, all along the main walking path through the room, are soft, with another section immediately on the verge of collapse. Should this new portion fall into the abyss beneath the carpet, I will have to leap along the support…
A Cold Wind's Whispering Secrets in Your Ear
In every state I've lived in, someone has used the line "If you don't like the weather here, give it ten minutes and it'll change," but never has that been more accurate than my time here in Montana. Last Saturday we had our windows open, enjoying the mid-sixty breezes that brought the smell of crunchy fallen leaves and wood smoke drifting through the house. By Sunday night we had the heater cranked up to counter the drop to single digits and snow was whipping furiously in every direction. In our tiny Connecticut cabin, we had a monstrous wood-stove we relied on for all our heat. There were a few baseboard heaters but they couldn't keep the drafty former-stable-turned-home above freezing and there is a charge on Connecticut electricity bills for "transfer" as there are no power plants in the state itself, so they have to purchase power from neighboring states, which means any electricity you use is essentially doubled in price. Rather than experience more than one $600 electricity bill, we burned. Unfortunately we don't have any alternate source of heating in our home here, where -11 seems to have cemented itself as our daily temperature. Hopefully the electricity is…

My Last minute Halloween makeup tips will be about doing your makeup for Halloween literately at the last minute. This was inspired by my cousin that said, "I want something simple, fast and cheap!" I said Ok! So I told myself I want to use makeup that everyone has and that it can be used for Halloween makeup. In the end, I use one black eyeliner/pencil, a red lip liner, red and blue face paint, fake blood and a stipple sponge or a normal sponge. In the video, I did mention on how you can make your own home made fake blood. So, I hope you enjoy my last minute Halloween makeup tips.
Last minute Halloween makeup tips for newbies
On thing about the last minute Halloween makeup tips, they focus on a few looks, for example, Vampire, newbie Zombie, beaten up person, sick person….itd. Basically anything that would required these kind of colors. I found that these few Halloween makeup looks would fit the season perfectly. One thing to notice, at the beginning of the video you will see my Zombie final look. I started adding makeup to show how you can go from a Vampire to a bruised person and in the end to a Zombie. Basically you can have 3 Halloween makeup looks all night long.
last minute halloween makeup tips for quick, simple and cheap makeup
In the upcoming makeup tutorial, expect to see last minute halloween makeup tips and tricks for a bruised person. Feel free to add "less" bruising in order to get a sick / ill person look. The Halloween look is mainly adaptable to many looks which you can do. I will be doing a dramatic Zombie makeup, but I am not sure if it will be out for Halloween. I will try my best, but honestly I do not think that it will come out in time for this Halloween. I hope that you will like these few very simple and very fast looks. I took in consideration that some people might be on a budget and only want to use what they already have in their makeup kit, or there sister's /mother's makeup collection. Make sure to tune in tomorrow for my next Last minute Halloween makeup tips part 2.

But look at it now!
Bit of a change don't you think?
Well I promised you some pics of the new plants and the progress that has taken place so far... so here it is!
Baby Watermelon! These are supposed to grow baby watermelon that are orange on the inside. I have never grown watermelon before and I am more than alittle worried about the humidity here in summer, but hey, it's my garden and I will grow watermelon of I want to! They are only suppsed to grow to 1 meter as well... which will be good for my restricted space :)
Baby Thai Egplant. This little cutie is supposed to grow little pale purple eggplant balls
This is one of the lettuce's I planted in the begining, sure are growing well know!
This is the 'baby tomato' that I showed you a photograph of before, she is still the smallest of the 4 but she sure has grown! You can also see the greek basil I have interdispersed between my plants
This is my first tomato flower! Since they are cherry tomatoes I shouldn't have to wait to long for my first tomatos!
This is a baby zucchini, it is an unusual striped Italian variety that is suppsed to have lots of flowers. The seeds come from Frateli Fresh, my fav grocery store.
Baby Cucumber, this is another Italian variety from Frateli Fresh. It is supposed to be good for eating, pickling and be a really long fruiter as well!
This is a flower from my apple cucumber, which is completly covered in flowers BTW.
This is the most exciting progress though, a baby cucumber!!! Hopefully it wont be too long til I get to enjoy this little one.... mmmmm apple cucumber and butter sandwhiches ;)
Since, you guys all know my love of flowers I had to include this psychadelic little beauty. It is a lobelia flower from some lobelias my Oma gave to me :)
I hoped you enjoyed the progress my little garden is making..... I will keep you informed.
P.S. Perhaps I should say that I am trying to grow my garden as orgaincally as possible, the only fertilizer I have used (which was very badly needed) was cow manure, mushroom compost, poulrty manure and fish emulsion. Does anyone have any other recommendations?

When I first started writing this month's Comet News the focus was going to be on how after 8 months that saw 8 comets reach 10th magnitude or brighter, the rest of the year was going to bring a bright comet drought. While this may still be true, a new discovery provides some hope that this Fall will see at least one come bright enough for most small telescope observers.
Evening C0mets
C/2015 V2 (Johnson) [Perihelion on 2017 June 12 at 1.64 au]
Comet Johnson is no longer visible from the northern hemisphere. By the time it heads far enough north to be seen by most northern observers it will have faded beyond the reach of all visual and most CCD observers. Southern comet watchers will still be able to follow Johnson this month as it moves through Centaurus (Aug 1-25) and Lupus (26-31). Currently around magnitude 9.0, it will fade by another magnitude this month as it moves away from the Sun (1.77 to 1.95 au) and Earth (1.35 to 1.83 au).
71P/Clark [Perihelion on 2017 June 30 at 1.59 au]
Discovered back in 1973, periodic comet 71P/Clark is making its 8th observed return. Similar to the last two months, Clark will spend all month in Scorpius. Recent reports place the comet between magnitude 10.5 and 11.0. Steady fading should continue as the comet retreats from the Sun (1.62 to 1.69 au) and Earth (0.79 to 1.04 au).
29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 [Perihelion on 2019 March 7 at 5.77 au]
Regular outbursting comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 is now on the evening side of opposition near the Capricornus/Aquarius border. Always active, the comet can reach 12th magnitude during its outbursts. As August begins it is at magnitude 14 and slowly fading after a recent outburst. Monitoring of 29P's outbursts will help better constrain its rotation period and outburst mechanisms. This is one comet where rapid changes in brightness and coma morphology make day-to-day monitoring worthwhile.
Morning Comets
C/2015 ER61 (PANSTARRS) [Perihelion on 2017 May 9 at 1.04 au]
C/2015 ER61 (PANSTARRS) reached perihelion back in May and has faded rather rapidly to between magnitude 10.5 to 11.5. The comet will continue to fade as it moves away from the Sun (1.69 to 2.04 au) and Earth (1.67 to 1.68 au). ER61 is a morning object this month moving through Taurus.
217P/LINEAR [Perihelion on 2017 Jul 16 at 1.24 au]
217P had a nice apparition last time around in 2009 when it brightened to 9th magnitude. This year's apparition won't be as good with it only brightening to 12-13th magnitude. Southern CCD observers will be able to watch it as it moves through Orion all month. The comet is now moving away from the Sun (1.25-1.36 au) and Earth (1.44-1.48 au). CCD observations are especially requested as 217P displayed some interesting jet features in 2009.
C/2017 O1 [Perihelion on 2017 Oct 13 at 1.51 au]
Comet Assassin! No it's not the name of the latest video game your kids or grandkids are playing, but it is the possible name of a bright comet discovered by the ASAS-SN (All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae) project. C/2017 O1 was first seen with the the ASAS-SN quadruple 14-cm "Cassius" telescope on Cerro Tololo, Chile on July 19 UT (discovery Astronomical Telegram #10597). In the first few days after discovery, the comet experienced an outburst to magnitude ~10.5. A report by Erik Bryssinck & F.-J. Hambsch on the comets-ml suggest another small outburst occurred between July 28 and 29 UT.
What the future holds for C/2017 O1 is still unknown. Here is what we do know. C/2017 O1 appears to be a long-period comet though whether it is dynamically new or old is still to be determined. The comet is currently 1.82 au from the Sun and 1.51 au from Earth. Those distances will drop to 1.63 au and 1.07 au by the end of the month. It is a morning comet moving northeast through Eridanus (Aug 1-12), Cetus (12-19) and Taurus (19-31). Perihelion occurs on October 14 at 1.51 au from the Sun and closest approach to Earth on October 17 at 0.72 au. If its current 10th magnitude is indicative of its true brightness (and not just the result of a short-lived outburst), the comet may brighten to 7th-8th magnitude in October. At that time it will also be a northern circumpolar object.
As for the name or lack thereof, the IAU Small Body Nomenclature committee will probably decide on the official name for C/2017 O1 when the next official orbit is released. It will be interesting to see if it will be Comet ASAS-SN, Comet ASASSN or even be named after the human ASAS-SN member who first saw it.
Other Comets in the News
Gianluca Masi and Efrain Morales Rivera have submitted images this past month of comet (457175) 2008 GO98. If (457175) 2008 GO98 seems like a strange designation for a comet, it is. The designation is actually for a numbered asteroid. Between its first reported sighting in 2001 and early 2016, this object didn't appear to display any cometary activity. All that changed in early 2016 when the object rapidly brightened from 21st to 17th magnitude. Though well observed in 2016, no one noticed the brightening or any cometary features. It wasn't until July 3rd of this year, that Greg Leonard noticed a coma and short tail in images taken with the Mount Lemmon 1.5-m.
While on an orbit that resembles a member of the Hilda family of asteroids, backward integrations of its orbit show that it has made many close approaches to Jupiter in the past and 300 years ago was on a Centaur orbit entirely exterior to Jupiter. This all suggests that it is not an asteroid that is acting like a comet but rather a comet that mimiced an asteroid for awhile.
International Comet Quarterly
The original clearinghouse of comet photometry and observation has returned after a hiatus of 7 years. The April 2010 issue (ICQ 154) has been published. A free downloadable copy is available at the ICQ website.
As always, the Comet Section is happy to receive all comet observations, whether images, drawings or magnitude estimates. Please send your observations via email to < carl.hergenrother @ alpo-astronomy.org >.

Both Holmes and I had a weakness for the Turkish bath.
I was living in my own rooms in Queen Anne Street at the time.
I am accustomed to have mystery at one end of my cases, but to have it at both ends is too confusing. I fear, Sir James, that I must decline to act.
A purring cat who thinks he sees prospective mice. Some people's affability is more deadly than the violence of coarser souls.
I am not often eloquent. I use my head, not my heart.
There was a curious secretive streak in the man which led to many dramatic effects, but left even his closest friend guessing as to what his exact plans might be. He pushed to an extreme the axiom that the only safe plotter was he who plotted alone.
The wages of sin, Watson ---- the wages of sin! Sooner or later it will always come. God knows, there was sin enough.
He flung his overcoat half out of the window to cover the armorial bearings upon the panel, but I had seen them in the glare of our fanlight none the less.

I find from my notebook that it was in January, 1903, just after the conclusion of the Boer War.
The good Watson had at that time deserted me for a wife, the only selfish action which I can recall in our association.
It is my business to know things. That is my trade.
I am sure that you will agree that in such a case a second opinion is valuable.
By cunning questions and ejaculations of wonder he could elevate my simple art, which is but systematized common sense, into a prodigy.
That process starts upon the supposition that when you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. It may well be that several explanations remain, in which case one tries test after test until one or other of them has a convincing amount of support.

Surely no man would take up my profession if it were not that danger attracts him.
I am not the law, but I represent justice so far as my feeble powers go.
I suppose I shall have to compound a felony as usual.

I never get your limits, Watson. There are unexplored possibilities about you.
It has been a case for intellectual deduction, but when this original intellectual deduction is confirmed point by point by quite a number of independent incidents, then the subjective becomes objective and we can say confidently that we have reached our goal.

Holmes refused a knighthood for services.
There have been no advertisements in the agony columns. They are my favourite covert for putting up a bird, and I would never have overlooked such a cock pheasant as that.
It was worth a wound ---- it was worth many wounds ---- to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation.
If you had killed Watson, you would not have got out of this room alive.

SOMEWHERE in the vaults of the bank of Cox and Co., at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn and battered tin dispatch-box with my name, John H. Watson, M. D., Late Indian Army, painted upon the lid.
The faculty of deduction is certainly contagious, Watson.
I can discover facts, Watson, but I cannot change them. Unless some entirely new and unexpected ones come to light I do not see what my client can hope for.
My professional charges are upon a fixed scale. I do not vary them, save when I remit them altogether.
I do not think that I am in need of booming. It may surprise you to know that I prefer to work anonymously, and that it is the problem itself which attracts me.
I do not blame you for feeling it. I should blame you if you expressed it, since this young lady was in a sense under your protection.
When once your point of view is changed, the very thing which was so damning becomes a clue to the truth.
If you will find the facts, perhaps others may find the explanation.

A dog reflects the family life. Whoever saw a frisky dog in a gloomy family, or a sad dog in a happy one? Snarling people have snarling dogs, dangerous people have dangerous ones. And their passing moods may reflect the passing moods of others.
When one tries to rise above Nature one is liable to fall below it.
Consider, Watson, that the material, the sensual, the worldly would all prolong their worthless lives. The spiritual would not avoid the call to something higher. It would be the survival of the least fit. What sort of cesspool may not our poor world become?"

Cut out the poetry, Watson, I note that it was a high brick wall.
With your natural advantages, Watson, every lady is your helper and accomplice.
"Pure swank! He felt so clever and so sure of himself that he imagined no one could touch him. He could say to any suspicious neighbour, 'Look at the steps I have taken. I have consulted not only the police but even Sherlock Holmes.' "
The inspector laughed.
"We must forgive you your 'even,' Mr. Holmes, it's as workmanlike a job as I can remember."

Acqua Di Parma Colonia, the timeless scent of pure Italian joie- de- vivre.
A scent emanated by the best quality citrus fruits of Sicily and Calabria, an authentic pleasure bestowed only by the three varieties of Acqua di Parma Colonia.
In the art of 'haute parfumerie', the structure of the classic eau de cologne is distinguished by citrus top notes, floral heart notes, blended in some cases with the spicy aromatic accents, rounded off with woody base notes.
Adopting highly selected ingredients, Acqua di Parma Colonia offers three different excellent interpretations of this timeless structure.
Notes: rosemary, amber, lavender, Sicilian citruses, jasmine, white musk and Bulgarian rose.
This high-impact fragrance creates a multi-facetted signature of masculinity.
The freshness of grapefruit invites you into this audacious scent, combining in the top notes with mint and blood mandarin. Striking and assertive middle notes follow with a refined yet virile combination of rose, cinnamon, and spicy notes. The base notes evoke the ultimate velvety harmony of leather, white wood, amber and Indonesian patchouli essences.
Once combined, the result is not merely one fragrance but an elegant intermingling of essences.

The Unmentionable Elephant in the Living Room of the Religious Liberty Debate
from Dr. Peter Kreeft, July 2012
…It's sex. Religious liberty is being attacked in the name of sexual liberty.
The current culture war is most fundamentally about abortion, and abortion is about sex. Abortion is backup contraception, and contraception is the demand to have sex without having babies.
…Why? Perhaps their consciences are still alive, after all, and feel guilty about killing their own unborn children. How could they not? If they can get us to compromise our consciences, they won't feel so bad about having compromised their own. (the unjust steward recruits accomplices) "Everybody does it" has always been a very effective and convenient excuse for any kind of evil, even slavery or genocide. That's why this is not just about contraception, or abortion, or whether every human biological life is intrinsically valuable. It's about whether every human conscience is. The Obama Administration has said, in effect, that consciences are still to be respected (e.g. pacifists will not be forced to fight in wars) as long as they do not conflict with the Sexual Revolution.
So we are at war. The two sides in the war are Sexual "Liberty" vs. Religious Liberty, which includes Liberty of Conscience.

Hosting the Australian Open might sound glamorous, but for Tennis Australia it also means coping with the mother of all seasonal spikes.
Tennis Australia has a split personality. For half the year the organisation is the mild-mannered governing body of tennis in Australia - supervising its 50,000 affiliated tennis clubs, selecting the country's Davis Cup squad, officiating local competitions and generally encouraging people to get out on the court. But with the warm weather come the big-money contests of the summer circuit and Tennis Australia shifts into high gear. As the season's premier event, the Australian Open, approaches, Tennis Australia transforms from a small organisation with only 80 permanent staff into the host of one of the world's highest-profile sporting events. Along the way its employee ranks swell with an additional 4000 casual and contract workers, ranging from ball persons, locker room attendants and match officials to Web site designers and television graphics specialists.
"We're a seasonal business, so it's vital that we bring in people and resources to cope with our peak periods," says Chris Simpfendorfer, IT director for Tennis Australia.
Simpfendorfer describes the Australian Open as "a coming together of sport, entertainment and technology", and indeed, technology now plays a vital role in nearly every aspect of the tournament, from the electronic scoring system down on the court to the tournament's official Web site and even SMS updates sent to fans' mobile phones. IBM, the Open's official information technology provider, supplies Tennis Australia's IT infrastructure for the tournament as a utility-type service. Under the arrangement, IBM provides equipment and staff expertise for the collection of results and statistics; supplies information and graphics to television broadcasters and other media; distributes tournament data through information terminals located around Melbourne Park; and designs, develops and hosts the event's official Web site.
Advantage: ContractorsMaking it all run without a hitch is a tall order, especially for an organisation which has only eight full-time IT staff. That's where outside specialists - hired by Tennis Australia in droves - enter the picture. During the tournament, around 50 local and imported technical staff are brought in to handle IT chores, with many more people assisting in data collection courtside.
"You don't need to employ someone for a year if you only need them for two weeks," Simpfendorfer says. Case in point: television graphics experts who, for obvious reasons, are needed only during the tournament's brief run. "We use them, take advantage of their knowledge, and then send them on their way," Simpfendorfer says.
Relying on outside expertise suits Tennis Australia perfectly, Simpfendorfer says. For one, the organisation is not burdened with staff it does not need. More importantly, the specialists temporarily employed by Tennis Australia go on to work at other big-name sporting events throughout the year, including other Grand Slam tennis tournaments. Each year, these people return to Australia full of new ideas and with valuable experience acquired during their work at other international sporting events.
Nevertheless, dealing with such a large number of hired guns comes with its own share of difficulties. Simpfendorfer insists that managing the Open's multitude of technological projects remains his biggest challenge.
"With an event like the Australian Open, we get one chance to do it each year, and if you miss a deadline, then you've effectively missed your chance for another 12 months," he says. "It's critical to hit those target dates, so a lot of time and effort is put into ensuring that not only are projects running on time, but that the people working on them have ample time for testing and ironing out any shortcomings in the system before we go into production for the tournament."
Not an easy task when you consider that many of the people working on projects for this year's Australian Open are spread throughout the globe. On the morning he spoke to CIO, Simpfendorfer had just finished an 8am conference call with the Open's results team in Jacksonville, Florida. The day before it was a call to the Web team in Atlanta. Before that it was the interactive television team in London.
"While there are advances we've all taken advantage of in the last couple of years, like e-mail and the Internet, it's still not always as good as getting on the phone or being able to sit down face to face with somebody and discuss a particular issue," he says. "Something that may take 10 minutes to discuss with somebody can often take weeks of e-mails before you get to the same point. The early morning phone call to one of our teams somewhere in the world is a pretty common event in my life at the moment. It's very difficult doing business in that way, but it's something you've got to learn to deal with."
Join the CIO Australia group on LinkedIn. The group is open to CIOs, IT Directors, COOs, CTOs and senior IT managers.

We've been posting many videos of online gameplay lately from Dragon Ball Xenoverse's exciting Japanese and English network test, where players can engage in 1-vs-1, 2-vs-2, and 3-vs-3 battles with friends, rivals, and complete strangers. The previous game in the series, Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z, was either an offline single player campaign or an online multiplayer battle, so many have wondered if Xenoverse is following the same formula. To the delight of fans, the answer is no! There will be offline local 2-player vs matches, where two people in the same physical room can go at it against one another. Take a look at the footage below! The thumbnails might be a little confusing, so we've added text above each video to indicate what match-up each contains.
Gohan vs Nappa
Goku vs Goku
Goku vs Yamcha
Piccolo vs Raditz
Vegeta vs Tien
This last video is from the game's Parallel Quest mode, where you, the player become a time patrol warrior to intervene in the history of Dragon Ball. It features a female Majin character taking part in the Prepare for the Attack of Saiyans quest, fighting against Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, Piccolo, and Goku

Have you met Monica Rose? It's time to get to know this stylist a little better! By now, she's become one of the most sought-out celebrity stylists in L.A. thanks to a client roster that includes some of the ubiquitous and influential stars in Hollywood — i.e. Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, Chrissy Teigen, Gigi Hadid, Kaia Gerber and more — who all trust and rely on her for Rose's signature brand of sexy, cool looks.
Now she's telling us exactly how she does it. In this week's issue of PEOPLE, Rose, 35, takes us inside her Los Angeles studio and gives us the scoop on her career and her clientele. "I could never have imagined this life in a million years," she tells PeopleStyle.
So what are the tricks she uses for her clients' style? Watch the video above for her dish on some of her favorite looks ever. Some of the highlights are below.
The daring look: The nude Balmain skirt, top and bodysuit was actually toned down from the original totally sheer look. Says Rose, "I thought since it was for Ellen and since it was daytime, we had to add a slip on it and not make it so sexy, so 'night.'"
Her style mantra for Khloe: When it comes to Khloe's current style, it's all about body-con. "I've worked with Khloe now for nine years and I've seen her go through so many different [phases]," says Rose. "She's worked so hard to get to where she is with her body. I just want to put her in everything tight. I just want to show how hard she's worked for that body, good for her! Every single time we're in a fitting I have to have my seamstress with me to measure her waist because she's losing so much weight. She's so into this 'revenge' body. She's just amazing."
