It was something unique in ancient Armenian cultural life. Afterwards, the talented Armenian students had an opportunity to get professional higher education within their homeland. The graduates of that and consequent years, among whom were sculptors, artists, graphics, with the help of their bright and high art brought absolutely new quality standards to Armenian national culture. Moreover, they were those graduates who laid foundation for the Union of Artists of Armenia. Through 1953-1994 the Institute of Fine Arts and the Institute of Theatre have represented one Institution of higher education. In 1994 the Institute of Fine Arts became a separate entity, and in 2000 it was named as Yerevan State Academy of Fine Arts. Gyumri branch of the Academy was established in 1997, while Dilijan one was opened in 1999. H. Ghukassyan and Gh. Ghazaryan were appointed as the directors of Gyumri and Dilijan branches consequently. Aram Isabekyan YSAFA Rector, professor, RA Honored Art Worker In 1994 artist, Honored Art Worker of the RoA, professor Aram Isabekyan was appointed as the rector of Yerevan State Institute of Fine Arts. A new building was acquired, and new laboratories and workshops were opened. It was of paramount importance for the Academy the establishment of exhibition hall, which was done by American Armenian benefactor Alber Boyajyan's generous contribution. The event became a basis for enlivening the artistic life of the Academy. ректор Академии художеств Арам ИСАБЕКЯН недавно побывали в Японии, куда были приглашены выдающимся буддийским мыслителем, писателем и педагогом Дайсаку ИКЕДОЙ, главой буддийского светского общества "Сока Гоккай". Церемония вручения дипломов о присуждении звания почетного доктора Академии художеств и почетного члена Союза художников состоялась в главном зале Университета Сока. Education System of an estimation of knowledge of students of YSAFA YSAFA launches a new grading system beginning the academic year of 2007-2008, which is formative assessment1 and differs significantly from the one, the summative one, applied before. The latter one stressed assessment of student knowledge only by the means of final exams whereas the formative one facilitates formation and development of student knowledge and competences throughout the whole semester and the final exam is one of its various components. The Chairs and instructors of the YSAFA bear the responsibility to determine which components to stress at a particular unit. The following can be the components upon which the final grade will be based: • • • • • • • TENDANCE THE QUANTITY OF ASSIGNMENTS THROUGHOUT THE SEMESTER PARTICIPATION OF STUDENTS AT SEMINARS AND PRACTICAL TRAININGS TERM PAPERS AND PROJECTS FINAL EXAMS LITERATURE RESEARCH EXCLUSIVITY OF COMPOSITIONAL THOUGHT AND THE LIKE.

For bachelor programs student weekly workload comes to 1.5 credits, which equals to 45 hours, 30 hours of which are intended for contact hours and 15 hours for student independent work. The semester workload comes to 30 credits and credits for one academic year come to 60. Student learning outcomes and competences obtained throughout the period of study are assessed by the means of a final project (project, composition, thesis and the like) and its defense as well as a final qualification exam. In order to get the BA degree students must meet the requirements of 240 credits for the whole program. Student knowledge is assessed according to the formative assessment standards.

PARIS FASHION WEEK: Maison Martin Margiela
Much mythologised but rarely felt is the true 'fashion moment', where something is so utterly, thrillingly wonderful that it transcends mere seasonal fashion and becomes something closer to art, something timeless, something truly monumental. This evening's Margiela show was such an event. A celebration of the house's 20th anniversary, the collection was a seeming exercise in archival revival, albeit anything but a lazy or emotionless rehash. Each outfit somehow had a tie to Margiela past while showing how that past could be utilised to invent the future. This is of course an idea Margiela have always played with: their 'Replicas', their use of recycled fabric, their meshing of different shapes and features culled from fashions ever-exhaustive history books. But this time, the ideas were culled from the house's own past, revived two-fold and, like a game of Chinese whispers, suitably distorted. Margiela's first jacket of the show was literally the first jacket, a piecemeal revival of a S/S 1989 design, which appeared, then reemerged as a print, then as a plaster cast lashed to the model's torso, inverting, abusing and ultimately collapsing the linear progression of time from inspiration to finished article. If occassionally this is lapsing into art historical criticism, it is because the show occassionally felt like a museum piece or art installation. But this is by no means a criticism. The imagery was powerful, influencial and inspirational. And if that all sounds a bit po-faced, a finale of two models entirely enveloped in a huge wedding-cake dress was enough to crack even the most jaded face into a broad smile. And when the whole house, models and a full brass band took their bows under a hail of silver confetti, it just about brought the house down.

By the Rev. Darren Miner
For the last three Sundays, I have preached that Advent is a time to rehearse the stories of the first coming of Jesus Christ, as well as to prepare ourselves for his Second Coming. That being said, today's Gospel reading doesn't actually focus on either the first or the second coming; instead, it focuses on the antecedent to the first coming, namely, the angel's Annunciation to Mary and the virginal conception of Jesus.
The angel's greeting in this story has appealed to the visual imagination of countless Christian artists, from the Middle Ages up to the present day. The museums of Europe are full of paintings of the Annunciation. Typically, you see a pale young woman in a diaphanous blue gown seated on a throne. You see an angel devoutly kneeling before her. You see a dove hovering over the scene. What you don't see is Jesus! But in truth, the whole point of the Annunciation story is Jesus. Luke shares this early tradition, because it tells us something we need to know about the identity of Mary's son.
We are told that Jesus is to be born of a virgin and that his father will be none other than the Lord God. The archangel Gabriel explains that the conception will take place in a spiritual manner as God's power passes over Mary like a shadow. Now, the virginal conception of Jesus is a difficulty for some faithful Christians. And I can understand why. After all, none of us here today has ever witnessed such a thing. Nor are we expected to! The Gospel portrays the event as a one-of-a-kind occurrence. And that's one main point of this story: Jesus is one of a kind. The other main point is that Jesus comes from God—exactly how is less important.

Oregon Trail Days celebrates contribution to Black Hawk restoration
Staff Report
OREGON, Illinois — The Oregon Trail Days Festival Committee has sent away all its money to the Illinois Conservation Foundation for the restoration of the Black Hawk Statue. The check for $15,718.93 consisted of funds generated during the July event as well as from sales of merchandise throughout the year.
The Oregon Trail Days Festival started in 2010 and had its final event in July 2014. The committee, which committed five years to the event, was hoping new individuals would step forward to continue this unique two-day festival, but so far, no one has expressed interest.
"We fully understand people's reluctance to get involved," said Amy Trimble, event creator. "It takes a lot of work and time to put on a festival of this nature, and when people realize that this is strictly a volunteer situation, it becomes an even larger sacrifice."
The committee — which consisted of Beth Henderson, Donna Mann, Merlin and Cindy Hagemann, and Ken and Chris Williams — were all very happy with their final contribution and their involvement in the statue restoration.
"We feel like we've made a great contribution to Oregon by helping raise funds for Black Hawk, but most importantly, by creating media hype about this historical structure," said Beth Henderson. "Over the past several years, we were able to bring several newspapers, magazines and TV outlets to Oregon to share Black Hawk's story with people all across Illinois and the Midwest. In some respects, that was more important than the money that we raised."
Committee member Donna Mann added: "We strongly encourage people to continue supporting the fund-raising efforts for the statue. As we understand it, the initial estimates for the restoration were a bit low, and there is still about $75,000 needed to complete the project."
Contributions may be sent to: The Illinois Conservation Foundation, 1 Natural Resources Way, Springfield, IL 62702. Be sure to write "Black Hawk" on the memo line so your donation goes to the right project.
From the Dec. 31, 2014-Jan. 6, 2015, issue

|Zara, Priestess of the Crimson Flame
|Publication information
|DC Comics
|First appearance
|Comics Cavalcade #5 (Winter 1943)
|Created by
|William Moulton Marston
|In-story information
|Alter ego
Zara, Priestess of the Crimson Flame is a villain who battled the Golden Age Wonder Woman. She was also a member of the super-villain team Villainy Inc. She debuted in Comic Cavalcade #5 and was created by Dr. William Moulton Marston as an example of the follies of misandry and another embodiment of emotionally misaligned women whom Wonder Woman must reform.
The past of Zara was that she was an Arab girl and wore belly dancer attire. According to her tales, she was sold into slavery as a child; which created in her an intense hatred of men. Using a flair for pyrotechnics, she eventually created a new religion (The Cult of The Crimson Flame), which had swept the globe. Zara rigged various fire-based effects to dazzle her followers and keep them in thrall to her. After her initial defeat by Wonder Woman, the Cult went underground; and Zara was able to scare up at least one follower to do her bidding when she joined Villainy Inc.
The lovely red-haired high priestess of the mystic Cult of the Crimson Flame, a "new religion" that has begun "sweeping the world". Its symbol is an eerie "crimson flame" that appears out of nowhere at the behest of the high priestess, hanging suspended in midair and inscribing mysterious flaming messages to cow the members of the cult - the so-called "flame slaves" - into abject obedience. Dr. William Moulton Marston assigned the color crimson to represent the inducement emotion that Zara was activating when trying to influence people.
|I am the crimson flame of life," intones a grim voice from within the flame,"- I burn within the breasts of all who obey me! Whosoever opposes me shall be consumed!
Anyone daring to oppose the cult falls mysteriously ill and dies soon afterward.
When Helen Armstrong, a U.S. Senator's daughter who has been intimately involved with the flame cult, disappears mysteriously, Wonder Woman, Steve Trevor, Etta Candy, and the Holliday Girls follow her to Arabia, site of the Crystal Temple of the Crimson Flame, the "international headquarters" of Zara and her sinister "flame forces." Ultimately, Wonder Woman and her companions defeat the flame cultists, rescue Helene Armstrong from their clutches, and capture Zara.
|I'm an Arab," explains Zara, "-my father sold me as a slave! Oh, how I hated heem! I swore I'd get revenge on men of power! Revenge - that ees my crimson flame!
It was to wreak vengeance on Helene's father that Zara had had her abducted.
The much-feared "crimson flame," confesses Zara, was actually nothing more than "floating, burning, liquid hydrogen," while the voice seeming to speak from inside it was actually an illusion created with movie projector sound equipment.
|To destroy enemies," continues Zara, "I put ideas in zair mind, zen zay make zemselves sick, poor fools!
Zara escapes from Transformation Island which works to rehabilitate female criminals along with seven other villainesses and joins them in forming Villainy Incorporated [2]
Post-Crisis, Zara has been depicted as an Arabian woman and her flame-powers were inborn rather than produced by gadgets (originally, she used a fire-gun). However, Hippolyta referred to her flames as 'scientific trickery.' [3]
Much later, Zara was mentioned as one of the inhabitants of Alan Scott's Emerald City on the dark side of the moon. She is mentioned as being a "fire girl" and an "old enemy of Wonder Woman." [4]
After the events of DC Rebirth, Zara's origin was altered. Though her past is currently unknown, she was at some point recruited by Veronica Cale to attack Washington D.C. As a pyrokinetic, Zara's fires were able to melt concrete, which prompted Wonder Woman to quickly defeat the villainess by smashing her into a wall. She's later taken into custody, though Wonder Woman commented that they planned on questioning Zara when she regained consciousness.[5]
Pre-Crisis, she used a fire-gun and rigged effects to appear to have a mastery over flames. Post-Crisis, her powers are internal, but may have been the result of scientific engineering rather than from natural sources (e.g., magic, meta-human, etc.).

Practicing psychology in the military consists of treating both active duty and retired military personnel afflicted with mental and emotional stress, disorders and illnesses. Every branch of the military employs psychologists to perform psychiatric evaluations, assess and treat mental and emotional disorders and provide counseling services. The military psychologist may also assist family members who suffer mental anguish caused by the loved one's experience during military service.
Psychologists perform mental health evaluations to help assure that only the healthiest, most productive and most stable men and women are recruited to serve their country. Since returning to civilian life can be traumatic for some, military psychologists are available to help veterans adjust to life after active duty to help ease their emotional turmoil. Studies show that certain types of mental and emotional disorders affect many military men and women. Battlefield experiences can seriously affect a soldier's thoughts and actions.
Other common disorders include post-traumatic stress syndrome, depression, grief, anxiety and sleep problems. Job titles for military psychologists include army mental health specialist, army psychologist, navy psychologist, marine psychologist or air force psychologist. Most military psychologists start with a bachelor's degree in general psychology, clinical psychology, or counseling, and graduates move on to obtain advanced degrees in psychology, often at a military school where expenses are paid by the military.

The distribution data, together with a number of other datasets,
such as altitude, weather and landcover were fed into a 'Maxent' model to create modelled
distributions of the species with a precision of 1km2 or
better. In order to be able to test the fit of the models,
they were developed using a random selection of half of the data,
and tested with the other half. The distributions developed
produced a fit of 94% for Rhododendron and 93% for
These models can then be used to look at the likelihood of
co-occurrence of the two species. Different thresholds can be
chosen for different purposes, for example to guide inspections or
control measures – the map on the left shows a threshold where the
predicted probability of both Rhododendron and bilberry is
greater than or equal to 30%. Threshold maps are important to
help make decisions on where control measures are most important,
and depending on the control chosen, where that control might be

Planet Hollywood may be familiar to travelers in either one of its two incarnations. First, came the ill-fated restaurant chain in 1991, opened with the backing of famous Hollywood stars and modeled so closely on the Hard Rock formula that lawsuits soon ensued. Once boasting more than 100 locations, there are now fewer than 20 worldwide, including one in the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. But like the Phoenix, Planet Hollywood has risen from the ashes of the Aladdin Hotel in the form of a state-of-the-art casino resort and pleasure palace. This incarnation seems much more thoughtfully put together than the previous one, and will hopefully attain success. Since my lovely wife the Rock Star and myself are pure born-and-bred Texans, we desire nothing more than to dine on some form of Mexican cuisine at least once a week, and noticing that Yolo's Mexican Grill was nearby, we proceeded to stroll down the strip one cold and rainy winter's day for lunch.
Restaurant designers, like many others, tend to follow trends, and Yolos copies the casual-sophisticate concept currently in vogue for most West Coast restaurants. Support columns with horizontal bars of light, a theme repeated throughout the entire casino. Festive colors, such as hot pinks, peaches, and stripes. The now-ubiquitious central bar. In fact, the whole restaurant comes across as one very contemporary South-of-the-border bar, and if you like bars (and we do), then you'll love Yolos design. We were seated and attended to almost immediately, always a plus in my book.
When dining at Yolos, you must first realize that unlike in most Tex-Mex establishments, you must pay for your chips and salsa. In this case, it's worth it, for the chef will craft a trio of different sweet and savory salsas every day of the week. Accordingly, we began our repast with the salsa trio, which on this day featured a rather mild green creation which tasted of avocado, a medim-sweet number with peach overtones, and a full-on barrelhouse red with definite touches of habanero. Both of us agreed this latter sauce was the best, paticularly when joined with the escabeche (think hot pico de gallo) that was on the side. Scanning the menu, my wife and I noticed the Street Tacos and having enjoyed them so much at our hometown Taco Diner, decided to partake once again. She chose char-grilled chicken breast, served with really good, fresh corn tortillas (these days, they are almost an endangered species) and marinated with guajillo chile. My test of great street tacos is to take a couple of bites of the naked meat; if the meat can stand alone, it is a truly successful dish. Hers passed the test with flying colors, as did my pork carnitas tacos, braised in a broth of the same guajillo chile and onions. Of course, our entrees were served with rice and black beans, however the cilantro rice my wife was presented with was rather bland and lifeless. My Mexican rice was much more flavorful, tasting distinctly of pork, and the smoky black beans hit the spot as well. No dessert necessary.
Service moved with relaxed briskness, a perfect pace for lunch, and managers stopped by to ensure all was well. Yolos web pages can be accessed through the Planet Hollywood site at
Yolo's Mexican Grill is a shining dining example of the delights to be found inside the Planet Hollywood Resort. Next time you're in Vegas, discover your own planet, and remember:

Margie, when were you in Las Vegas? We have always loved it, because we remember to enjoy Vegas as a great food, sightseeing, and gambling town. These days, you can gamble in Oklahoma, Louisiana, or even on-line in your own home, so why go to Vegas? Answer: The great food AND great sightseeing, as well as the shows and gambling!

Luxurious Wall House in Singapore
The Wall House was created by FARM at the request of a retired couple residing in Singapore. The residence features two distinct volumes that are used to separate the private and social areas, both connected to a spectacular inner courtyard.
The separation includes a single-storey block housing the entertainment areas, along with a two-story block where the master bedroom and main living areas are located. As we mentioned before, these two spaces are connected via a central courtyard, which boasts granite walls and floors along with willowy trees. The exquisite landscaping arrangements were created drawing inspiration from a classical Chinese Garden, featuring overlapping lines and spaces for dramatic effect.

I'm still in talks with Swinebert and others I hoped would help pick up the slack in my absence, as they too were hit with unforeseen chaos in their lives, so hopefully I can update you soon.
In the meantime, I had something important to share. I entered the "11TH FREE 'DEAR LUCKY AGENT' CONTEST (MIDDLE GRADE FICTION)" I don't normally enter contests because I find them too constricting. But after my experience at WriteOnCon 2012, I feel I have as a good a chance as anyone, but please wish me luck anyway.
While I'm still on indefinite hiatus from regular blog posts, as per the rules of the contest linked above (Tomrrow's the LAST DAY for entires if interested), I've got to let two social networks know about it.

October is winding down, and we are still experiencing a relatively mild Fall here in Georgia. I am truly grateful, though, because I am still cranking out garments from my Fall sewing plans. Though I have made a dent in my plans, I have only scratched the surface of where I want to be.
Speaiking of Fall weather, I have had a cardigan on my "to-sew" list for a LONG time now--mostly because I enjoy wearing them come Fall. My own closet consists of two RTW cardigans. The first one is a longer gray one, and the second one is a shorter, black one. Both of them have served me well, yet I really wanted to branch out and add some more color choices to my wardrobe.
So, I sewed the ever popular Mccalls 6844, View B, Size S:
This is a great basic cardigan, in my opinion. I like that it has options for a peplumed version, or a waist length version. If you need a cardigan, one of these options is likely to fit the bill.
For my version, I used a Burgundy Rayon/Lycra Jersey knit from Fabricmart Fabrics. I got the idea from my black RTW cardigan. Seriously! I am a bit of a RTW sneak. I think of what I want to sew, find a comparable RTW garment in my closet, then "sneak" in and inspect it to discover clues as to what I should do about fabric choice, etc. once I pick out a pattern. Well, I guess it's not sneaking because I own it, but I still feel like I'm cheating in some way by observing RTW techniques : )
My adjustments are as follows:
- 1/4" Square Shoulder (my standard nowadays)
- Waist grading to a Medium
- 1" Swayback Adjustment (it is looking so good now)
The construction of the cardigan was simple, and easy for a beginner to follow. I decided to take a different route, though, and NOT use my serger. Mostly, that was due to not having matching thread, and not wanting to buy any. I wanted the inside seams to not be glaringly obvious, so I sewed double-stitched seams with my stretch stitch, and trimmed them close.
I also took the time to really pay attention to pressing my seams. It was a way to practice good habits on a simple project. I decided to interface the collar, despite the fact that other people from PR have done without it. I reasoned that my fabric was so slinky I wanted to make sure it had a great amount of stability there. I am glad that I did! The added weight makes it sit wonderfully. Also, I made sure to leave a 5/8" seam allowance around the interfaced cowl piece so that it was still easy to sew together.
For fitting the back, I increased my swayback adjustment from 1/2" (last time) to 1", and I love the result! Take a look for yourself:
I couldn't believe how nice the back looked when I tried it on! And no centerback seam, either!! I have been trying out the pivot and slide method that Nancy Zieman (love her) uses in her Pattern Fitting with Confidence book, and it really works. I admit to being a little hesitant, but it worked for my cardigan, at least, and all you are doing is decreasing the back waist length. I'll keep tweaking this and let you know how it goes, for those of you interested. I got her book from my local library, and the adjustment is super easy!!!
Overall, I guess hundreds of reviewers can't lie regarding this pattern. I like it! Oh yeah, my only other tip was that I tacked the cowl down in various places near the bottom of the garment to keep it in place. I believe Nakisha did that on one of her versions, and I found it extremely helpful.
Let me share a little secret with all of you: I am really enjoying sewing my own clothes!! Okay, maybe that is not a secret, but SERIOUSLY! I have finally found out ways to make the things I sew fit much better, and I feel so good wearing them. Even a basic tee shirt that fits you well can do wonders! Sewing is loverly!
Now on to those jeans...

Ecclesiastes 2:1
I said to myself, "Come now, I will test you with pleasure. So enjoy yourself." And behold, it too was futility.
The extent to which you understand your identity in Christ will directly affect the pleasures you choose to pursue. As a young man, I was taught that the world's understanding of pleasures would mold me into an ungodly man if I was not careful to avoid them. Do your pleasures control your identity today, or does your identity in Christ have control over your pleasures?
There were not many pleasures in Solomon's day that he had not experimented with at one point or another. Chapter two is his testimony to this fact. It is important for us to learn two lessons from Solomon in this chapter.
1) Not all of Solomon's "pleasures" were wrong in and of themselves. One can hardly blame a guy for enjoying his laughter. The larger problem becomes evident when we realize that Solomon was using his laughter as a gauge in his search for significance.
2) Whether the pleasures Solomon sought were inherently good or not, they all ended in futility because not one of them was based in his identity as a child of God. You must make certain that your confidence comes from God and not from the pleasures you enjoy.
So what makes you tick today? Do you define yourself as a comedian, an athlete, or an "A" student? If so, what happens the day no one laughs at your jokes, you break your leg, or you bomb a final exam? Does your life go down the drain along with the meaningless pleasures on which you based your identity? We must all learn from Solomon's mistakes! If our self-worth is based on any pleasure other than being a Child of God, it will only be a matter of time before it all comes crashing down.

Wine Pairings for the Week of October 17th, 2016
Each week, Wine Specialist Sarah Pierre brings you suggestions to complement your PeachDish meals. Sarah is one of the owners at 3 Parks Wine Shop in Glenwood Park, Atlanta. She paired up with the team of The Shed at Glenwood and The Pig and The Pearl and opened 3 Parks in 2013. Prior to opening the store, she spent most of her career working and managing notable restaurants in Atlanta and New York City. Sarah selects all of the wines that are offered at 3 Parks Wine Shop and also assists in pairing wines for local events and dinners throughout Atlanta.
Pecan-Stuffed Trout with Roasted Pears & Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Viognier - A true southern fall dish packed with big flavor will need a wine to hold up to the complexity as well as the fruity and sweet flavors. Suggestion: Cambria Viognier, Santa Maria Valley, CA
Grenache - Pair this PeachDish with a red wine that is a delicate, soft, fruit-forward red wine with minimal tannins and moderate acid. A grenache from the Southern Rhone would do the trick! Suggestion: Andre Brunel Grenache, Rhone, France
Turkey Burgers with Fresh Greens & Sweet Potato Salad
California Pinot Noir - Go with a classic pairing; fragrant and fruity Pinot Noir. A Pinot Noir will complement the sweetness of the potatoes. Suggestion: Landmark Vineyards Overlook Pinot Noir, Sonoma County, California
Soba Noodle Bowl with Bok Choy, Radish and Farm Egg
Sparkling Wine - Pull out your chopsticks and a glass of Prosecco! The peach and orchard fruit in the Prosecco will elevate the sweet & spicy flavors of the Hottie sauce to new heights. Stick to a drier style of Prosecco if you can - there is plenty of expressive fruit to do the job. Suggestion: Scarpetta Prosecco, Friuli, Italy
Pan-Roasted Butternut Squash with Greens, Cherry Tomatoes & Brown Rice
Provencal Rosé - You can't go wrong with a crisp, dry Rosé from the south of France! It will pair well with the roasted vegetables and tomatoes marrying all the flavors of the dish. Suggestion: Chateau St. Pierre Rosé, Provence, France
Jennifer Booker's Pork Chop with Hoecakes & Bacon Snap Beans
Syrah - Pork chops are extremely versatile when it comes to wine pairing. The snap beans and bacon will really stand out paired alongside a savory, smoky glass of Syrah. Suggestion: Stolpman Syrah, Ballard Canyon, CA
Zeb Stevenson's Chicken & Dumplings
Pinot Noir - An earthy Pinot Noir will hit the spot. You'll want to find a red wine that has a nice amount of acidity that will cut through the delicate richness of the soup and the dumplings. The wine is also light enough to really allow all of the flavors and ingredients in the soup expressed. Suggestion: Nicolas Pinot Noir, France
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc - This southern, creamy soup can stand up to a full bodied white wine. If you can find a Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc at your local wine shop, you might have a new white wine go-to. The wines are full and rich in texture with spice and fruit jumping out of the glass. Enjoy a glass with southern classic! Suggestion: Mont Redon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc, Rhone, France
SuperFood Flatbread with Sweet Potatoes, Mushrooms, Goat Cheese & Balsamic Drizzle
Pinot Noir - Savory, earthy vegetables like mushrooms and arugula will pair well with Pinot Noir as well as the sweet potatoes matching the fruit-forward flavor profile of the red. Suggestions: Love Block Pinot Noir, Central Otago, New Zealand
Orecchiette with Broccolini, Garlic & Crushed Red Pepper
Pinot Grigio - A simple classic Italian dish deserves to be paired with its regional match--a young, lively glass of Pinot Grigio! Suggestion: Scarpetta Pinot Grigio, Friuli, Italy
Mustard Greens Salad with Sweet Potato, Tomme & Cider Dressing
Vinho Verde - Grab a glass of this crisp, slightly effervescent, zingy white wine from Portugal. This young wine is light, fresh, and easy to drink. It's perfect accompaniment for a tangy and sweet salad. Suggestion: Calamares Vinho Verde, Portugal

Emma Thompson Joins 'Beautiful Creatures'
Emma Thompson is the latest to join the cast of Beautiful Creatures, Alcon's adaptation of a young adult novel by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl.
The project, written and being directed by Richard LaGravanese, has been filling up its roll call. Youngsters and relative newcomers Jack O'Connell and Alice Englert earlier this week came on board to play the characters at the heart of the supernatural coming-of-age story, about two star-crossed teens, one a local boy, the other a mysterious new girl, who uncover dark secrets about their families, their history and their town. Viola Davis was the first person cast in the production last week.
The casting comes as Summit Entertainment sells international rights to the project at the European Film Market in Berlin, which go underway Thursday. Beautiful Creatures is garnering key interest this week as foreign buyers look for the next Twilight or Hunger Games.
Warner Bros., which has an output deal with Alcon, is releasing the movie domestically.
STORY: 'Skins,' 'Singularity' Actors Join Supernatural Thriller 'Beautiful Creatures'
According to Alcon, Thompson will play the dual role of Mrs. Lincoln, who is a small town religious firebrand, and Sarafine, who is the dark witch who possesses her.
Alcon's Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove are producing, as is Erwin Stoff and Molly Smith.
Thompson next appears on screen in Sony's Men in Black III.

This is my studio….. on a good day. Note how the well organized quilts are, rolled up on tubes and stacked in a cupboard alphabetically. Or not. Lets be honest. Most often I just throw them in the cupboard to the get them out of the way. And then when it comes time to prepare them for an exhibit I can't find them and tear my hair out.
Guess it's time for the Big Sort.
After 2 hours of quilt wrangling, I've sorted out the ones to set aside for the exhibit Natural Born Quilters. Famous quilters Emily Parson and Frieda Anderson and infamous quilter, myself, are having this special exhibit at the International Quilt Festival in Chicago. So glad I found them all!

How Real Estate Exam Prep Can Help?
Practice makes perfect, or at least a passing score. After completing a real estate prelicense course, the best way to cement what you've learned and prepare for the licensing exam is to use an exam prep course.
What's an Exam Prep?
Exam preps mimic the real licensing exam with a similar format covering the same topics. Students enrolled in real estate exam prep courses practice and apply what they learned.
You answer questions testing your knowledge of general real estate topics and state-specific issues, often with feedback explaining the correct answer. Simulations are designed to test the student's understanding and help with problem-solving and analysis to answer difficult questions.
How Does an Exam Prep Help You Pass the Exam?
- Builds confidence: Taking lots of practice exams will build confidence and defeat test stress during the exam. You'll feel more comfortable if you know what to expect. So, in addition to take an exam prep, learn as much as you can about the exam and the exam site. Download study guides and candidate handbooks from the exam provider's web site.
- Reduces fear and anxiety: Humans often fear the unknown. If you've done something before, you'll naturally be less fearful and apprehensive doing it again.
- Get comfortable with the question type: Most state licensing exams contain multiple choice questions with four answer choices: the correct answer and three distractors. This is how exam prep questions are presented.
- Review the topics to be tested: Real estate prelicense courses and exam preps are based on the licensing exam topics outline. If you paid attention during the course and exam preps, there shouldn't be any surprises.
- Learn how to quickly and correctly answer questions: After taking several practice tests, you get a feel for how the questions and answers are commonly worded and you develop strategies for eliminating the wrong answers, thus increasing your odds of answering correctly.

Fractal Time
The Secret of 2012 and a New World Age
Audio Downloads
HayHouse.com: 11.98 USD $11.98
List Price: $23.95 (Save 50%)
Availability: Immediate Delivery
Publisher: Hay House
Publication Date: 3/19/09
Narrated By: Gregg Braden
Version: Abridged
Gregg Braden merges these ancient and modern world views into a powerful new model of time. Marrying the modern laws of fractal patterns to the ancient concept of cycles, he demonstrates how everything from the war and peace between nations to our most joyous relationships and personal crises are the returning patterns of our past. As each pattern returns, it carries the same conditions of previous cycles-fractal patterns that can be known, measured and predicted!
What makes this model so important today is that the returning cycles also carry a window of opportunity-a choice point-that allows us to choose a new outcome for the cycle. Braden suggests that if we can see time from this perspective, the patterns will show us what's in store for the future, and perhaps how to avoid the mistakes of our past.
After presenting the case histories that confirm the accuracy of fractal time calculations, the author crosses the traditional boundaries of science and spirituality to answer the question that must be asked: What does fractal time tell us about 2012, and beyond? Because the cycles repeat, the seed for 2012 has already happened and the pattern already exists! In a narrative format of easy-to-read science and true-life accounts, Fractal Time shows us what we can expect as we close the Great World Age described by the Mayan Calendar, and the secret to our moment in history.

Hello and welcome! (Deep breath).
So I've decided to start a blog. My first thought was, why?... Because in no way have I been or will ever be a writer, or at least a good one. You will probably find 101 grammar mistakes that will drive you absolutely crazy. I'm ok with that. Maybe I will learn to do a better job as I go along this journey. I wanted a place to catalogue all my DIY projects, and a place to record those special mommy moments as my children grow. May the Lord be glorified in all things and let it be known that the gifts, talents, and graces all come from Him and nothing of myself. I am but a servant of the Lord.
Meet my beautiful family.
More recently, this is me and my handsome :)
Thank you for visiting. I will be posting my first project soon. Yay!
Lots of Love,

Q I read the report about ours being one of the unhealthiest nations in Europe. It makes me worry about my children. What, in your opinion, are we doing wrong?
Name withheld
A Dr Dan Rutherford writes
It's not fair. We've spent loads on the National Health Service and it has not made us healthy. What went wrong? The answer, of course, is that we gave it the wrong name. "National Illness Service" would have been more accurate, and it's becoming more appropriate at an alarming rate.
Population-sized changes in patterns of disease take decades to happen. The present "epidemics" of obesity, diabetes, drug and alcohol abuse have their antecedents in social changes beginning back in the Seventies, and in many cases much earlier. Housing quality, employment opportunities, even road planning (can you cycle safely in your town?) and hundreds of other factors have all had an influence. We see the dynamics of these changes in the hugely uneven distribution of ill health in our population.
Those from the poorest backgrounds have the biggest burden of chronic illness, particularly from those diseases associated with smoking and less healthy diets. Our children's health as adults is being determined right now by the environment we provide for them.
Public health has been allowed to slide into the sidelines for years. We have been dazzled by the bright lights of modern medicine and its capacity to treat sickness. We don't want to hear the boring stuff about stopping smoking, cutting back on the booze, taking a walk regularly, eating more fruit and veg and less processed food of uncertain provenance, all of which will help keep us from needing treatment in the first place.
Give them their due, the politicians have tried. The present Government's reorganisation of health services will generate many more poster campaigns on public health topics in the next few years. These will not, however, get us all fit. To do that we need to get personally interested in the boring stuff right now.
Q I am a busy mum in my 30s and don't have much time for exercise. Can you suggest a short routine that would help me tone up?
A Tony Gallagher writes
Rather than a "one size fits all" regime, I would suggest a plan that gives you variety and lets you decide on the length of your routine on any given day. This also allows you to measure easily how much exercise you have done, which will keep you motivated. Pick from the following exercises:
Legs: squats, single leg squats, lunges, outer leg raises, inner leg raises, straight leg raises, wall squats. Arms: bicep curls using a rubber band or dumbbell, tricep dips using a chair or stair, tricep kickbacks.
Chest: wide press-ups.
Shoulders: front raises, lateral raises, shoulder presses, bent-over rowing movements using dumbbells.
Core: abdominal curl-ups, plank, side plank, rotating plank, wall squats.
To begin, choose an exercise you want to do the most out of the list. Perform between eight and 12 repetitions. Then do 10 star jumps.
After that, try your next favourite exercise. Then do another 10 star jumps. Continue in the same vein, performing up to five different exercises, with the star jumps in between. This means you will have done five rounds of circuits – a surprising amount of exercise.
The best part of the routine is that you can match it to your needs and energy on the day. For best results, you should aim to work on different parts of the body to build up your fitness over time.
Q I love cereal, but I'm aware that its GI index isn't healthy. Is it alright to eat it more than once a day? I'm in my 20s and very active.
A Sara Stanner writes
The glycaemic index (GI) of a food is a measure of how quickly sugar (glucose) is released into the bloodstream after eating. The theory behind GI diets is that foods with a low GI, which release sugar slowly into the blood, provide a steady supply of energy which might make you feel fuller for longer and therefore less likely to snack.
In contrast, it's been suggested that a more rapid rise in blood sugar from higher GI foods quickly leaves you lacking energy and feeling hungry. However, lots of factors can influence the GI of food, including the carbohydrate, fibre, fat or protein content, and these factors can also have an effect on satiety (how full or satisfied you feel after a meal).
Foods eaten together, as is usual at mealtimes, will have a combined GI value. For example, the GI of your bowl of cereal will depend on your choice of cereal, type of milk and anything else you add to it (such as dried fruit), just as the GI of your toast will depend on the type of bread and the amount of spread you use.
Although it has been suggested that low GI foods fill you up for longer, current evidence shows that when other factors (such as fibre content) are controlled, GI does not have a significant effect on appetite control.But cereal is a great choice for breakfast, especially if it is wholegrain and high in fibre.
Many cereals have the added benefit of being fortified with vitamins and minerals, and adding milk will provide additional nutrients including calcium which is important for bone health.
It is fine to consume cereal more than once a day – it can make a great snack, particularly if you are very active. Look for cereals that are made with wholegrains or wholewheat. Many are labelled as such but you can also look at the ingredient list.
Always check the labels for added sugar – there are plenty of varieties without. Muesli, porridge and other cereals that are relatively 'unprocessed' are healthy options.
Q Last winter I suffered from terrible chilblains, and they seem to be coming back. What can I do about the situation?
A Dr Dan Rutherford writes
Chilblains are small areas of skin inflammation triggered by cold-induced spasm of the tiny blood vessels within the skin. The inflamed areas can be painful and last several days. Most people with chilblains are healthy and their general circulation is fine. Rarely, chilblains are part of a more generalised problem of soft tissue inflammation or can point to too much protein in the blood (your GP can do blood tests).
In Britain we don't get the bone-hard cold weather that is normal in, say, Scandinavia, and so we tend to be half-hearted when it comes to buying really warm clothing. Invest in good boots, thermal socks and gloves as well as core clothing, and wear them a lot.
Nifedipine is a drug more commonly used for high blood pressure and angina which works by opening up the blood vessels, including those in the skin. It can help severe chilblain sufferers. For more see nhs.uk/conditions/chilblains.
Urinary tract infections
In the past I suffered with urinary tract infections and was forever on anti-biotics, due to a kink in the tube from my kidney to my bladder which built up the infections. Now I take two cranberry capsules regularly daily (Holland and Barrett). I have not had any problems for about two years.
J Dibley, by email
To those readers who are taking cranberry preparations, or who may be prompted to take them, it is important that any of them taking warfarin to be aware of the risk. Following the death of a man, on warfarin, whose blood-clotting levels changed dramatically six weeks after starting to drink cranberry juice, the Committee on Safety of Medicines (CSM) issued a warning for patients on warfarin to limit, or avoid, taking cranberry juice or its preparations.

Earlier today I chaired an event on the virtues of procrastination with Professor Frank Partnoy, who was recently nicknamed 'The God of 'hang-on-a-minute'.
I will (he says like a true procrastinator) return with a more detailed blog on the subject soon, because I want to
until I can do the event (see photo) and the book justice. (There is great stuff about the timing of jokes and apologies, lots of decision theory, an analysis of discount rates, a constructive critique of Gladwell's blink and much more- way too much to get into at the end of the working day).
(Image via bookandborrow.com)
We are accepting a quick answer when instead we should be asking a slow question."
However, for now it seemed worthwhile to direct you to the lively twitter feed of the event, the site where the audio will soon appear and share a few of the lighter, funnier quotes from the book:
"To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan, and not quite enough time" - Leonard Bernstein
"Never put off until tomorrow what can wait until the day after tomorrow." - Mark Twain.
"Make sure you have finished your speaking before your audience has finished their listening" - Dorothy Sarnoff
There are also some really serious implications in the book for the major issues of our time, of which the following is a mere tease:
"Today virtually no politician...talks about replacing GDP in the long-term; instead everyone has zeroed in on how to increase GDP in the short term. We are accepting a quick answer when instead we should be asking a slow question."

Ahhh, the allure of a friendly local pub.
The Kirribilli is an easy stagger from Milsons Point train station, and an even easier stagger towards several Indian and Thai restaraunts down the road. It's definatly a local - everything about it, from the carpets to the bloke who offers you tickets in the Friday night meat raffle, screams "watering hole".
That said, the place is loved by all. Friday night sees a huge gathering of workers from surrounding office towers drowning themselves in the reasonably priced beers. Bar staff walk around with trays of snacks, which are appreciated by all, especially if you happen to have started the weekend with a bang. The pokies, situated downstairs, are nearly always empty, and are usually the only easy place to find a seat over the weekend.
Sundays see a crowd of pre-"Sounds" revellers starting their day/night in a fairly loud fashion, so going to the cosy bistro for a quiet meal at the cosy Bistro may not be the best idea on this particular day. On any other night, it serves great "back to basics" pub food at good prices. Guaranteed to comfortably line many a stomache.
Going during the week is a great way to relax and down some serious ale. It's a Tooheys Old kinda place, but it makes for a nice break from stainless steel bars and smoked glass benches.
Highly Recommended .

Pauly from CBDThis is one of the most over-rated pubs on the North Shore. Unfriendly & expensive!22 Jun 2006
PubGoer from BalmainA great pub with a very local feel, even if you aren't a local. What more can you ask.1 Mar 2005
Sten from ThornleighQuite possibly my favourite pub in Sydney, it's the local after work for me and my friends on a Friday arvo. Very comfortable if you can snag a corner downstairs. The beer is good and reasonably priced and they even bring around trays of nibbles. I can't see myself ever stop drinking there5 Oct 2004
Heather from KirribilliA good local. The food can be a bit hit or miss though. One of the Billi bar staff (allegedly) invented the delightful tasting shooter, the Jaffa, consisting of Frangelico, Kalua and Cointreau - yum.19 May 2004
mike from nth sydneyThis place rocks even more since they got some decent music playing - yippee & hooray25 Sep 2003
Derek from PerthUpon my first visit to the Billi I was captivated and have been gripped by the atmosphere & culture of this quaint bar ever since. The Decor & Furnishings are relaxingly comfortable and all pleasant to the eye. The array of beers is plenty to extinguish any yearning taste bud, from Local to International & Boutique bevies. Speaking of bevies on tap, there is wealth of talent behind the bar eager to service your cravings. The Staff have unique warmth about them, very approachable, helpful and ever so friendly. It makes the Billi's whole environment a HAPPY PLACE.
Trendy, Social & social without the pretentious it's the Best Pub on the Northshore....Under the Bridge.

Peter from North SydneyThis pub rocks!date unknown
Felicity from North SydneyThe Kirribilli is a fantastic pub with a great atmosphere. It offers good food in the bistro section out the back, which can be either open or covered depending on the weather. It's a sports-friendly bar, meaning if the rugby is on, they'll likely be showing it on one of the televisions.date unknown

Warm-Up: Which is more beneficial, sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction? Be prepared to defend your answer.
Given the two previous lessons on meiosis, students should be able to respond to this question. Instruct students to take 1-2 minutes to think of their response and their reasons for their answer. Be careful to not rush to the discussion, recognizing that students process questions and information at different speeds. After 1-2 minutes, allow student to share their thoughts. Asking students to defend their answer helps to assess their depth of content comprehension.
Emphasize that there are benefits to either type of reproduction, given the particular environment of the organism.
In preparation for the review activity, create a list of the content specific vocabulary and place slips of paper with one term on each slip in a bag.
Explain that groups of 2 students will randomly pull 2 terms from a bag of meiosis vocabulary terms. Allowing students to work in groups of two for the review serves to help students build upon their own knowledge by working collectively with another student before working independently on the writing assignment, the constructed responses. This will also support them in their ability to use the correct terminology when they develop their constructed responses.
Display the KIM template while providing a verbal explanation of what students are expected to do. This addresses different learning styles.
Review the instructions for writing a K.I.M., recalling that K stands for "key word, I stands for information, and M stands for memory cue.
Distribute KIM templates, large chart paper and markers to each group of two students. Designate a set amount for this activity and set the timer. Display the timer so that students will be able to self-monitor their progress. The KIM student example shows that students are able to communicate the meaning of the terms.
Display the 7 constructed response questions. Read each question aloud to the class. Review the RACE writing strategy with students (Re-state, Answer, Cite and Explain).
Model the development of a constructed response to one of the questions using the "think aloud" strategy.
For example: List three ways that meiosis differs from mitosis.
Think aloud Script:
Let me think. Mitosis creates body cells. Oh, let me use the scientific term, somatic cells. What do I know about somatic cells? Somatic cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cells. But, is it the same for meiosis? Let me check my notes. I see meiosis produces sex cells that have half the number of chromosomes. I have identified one way that meiosis differs from mitosis.
It's not necessary to completely answer the question. The purpose is only to allow students to observe the thinking that is used to respond to the question.
Conduct a quick check for understanding by asking 1-2 students to restate the two parts of the assignment in their own words. This practice is a great way to ensure that everyone understands what they are being asked to do.
The writing process can be highly effective in strengthening students' concept comprehension. But, often students will struggle with writing assignments because of literacy deficits. Identify which students will work independently to complete the task. For those students who might be challenged by the assignment, consider creating ability-based pairings.
Release students to work on the assignment. Walk around the room to observe students while they work, noting comments or struggles that may require a quick spiral review or guided questions. Encourage students to create bullet points before they develop their written responses to each question so that they will be able to focus on the writing style after they know that they have identified all the facts they want to include in the response.
Collect the work and read over the student responses. Look for students' ability to convey their understanding of the concepts. Look for common misconceptions that may be evident across the student work and re-teach any topic that is consistently written about in error. Notice which questions are more readily answered and also those that are not selected as frequently. Questions that are consistently avoided may show areas where student knowledge is weak. Student work 1 and student work 2 both show that students were able to craft responses that show they understand the content. Student work 2 shows that the student needs to strengthen understanding as it relates to the process of crossing over.
After reviewing the work, share exemplar responses to each question so that students will gain a sense of what a complete response looks like and they also learn what the correct response is to each question.
Display the Meiosis Ticket Out the Door. What word pairs in the accompanying descriptions of mitosis and meiosis point to the differences between the two types of division?
As a whole group, discuss this question. Look for students to be able to provide explanations that convey understanding of why one of the terms explain the difference between mitosis and meiosis.
For example, identical points to the difference between the two types of division because mitosis produces daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell and meiosis does not.

Darkzero Writes "Shooting has just started of the film adaptation of Max Payne, and a first look at the movies main character is now available. As usual we are not too excited about the film, as every recent game to film translation has left us sick to our very stomachs, but with some people of quality partaking in the project it has a chance of impressing. Mark Wahlberg will take the roll of Max Payne, and although he does not look much like the character I am sure we could have been stuck with much worse. Better news comes from the fact that John Moore will be directing."
are u being sarcastic because those was good movies u just listed all of the bad game to movies have had mainly no name actors in them mark walberg is a pretty good actor so maybe this one wont suck (that mucH)
marky mark in the lead role and there goin 4 a pg13 WOT!!! max payne's about drugs, death and bullets, lots of bullets, ill wait 4 MGS the movie
Mark Wahlberg is a great actor and he was uber awesome in Departed but in a bad film, he becomes bad too (Shooter).
Hopefully this is not that bad. As for the director, I'm not too optimistic but at least, he's not the director of Doom movie who is currently ruining Street Fighter 2 movie or something.
