A black puddle, which smells strongly of gas, spreads on the floor. A circular piece of turquoise fabric with frayed borders hangs on the wall. An orange spot with a spicy odor appears on the surface of a piece of sandpaper.
The work of Gyan Panchal, exhibited since 2000, initially appeared to be animated by the idea of a future archeology of ruins, in an aesthetic mode that is both sensual and discreet.
More recently, the artist distanced himself from this romantic fiction and moved toward an abstract sculpture of a more sober nature, not without emphasizing the connotative dimension of materials and all of their indirect, subjective, cultural and implicit significations. Thus, by linking itself to diverse fields of knowledge, Gyan Panchal's sculpture goes beyond the question of autonomy. His sculpture cannot be limited to a strict formalism per se, given that his forms come from the material itself. The artist perceives the material as both frame and envelope, with the intention of inhabiting it.
Numerous sculptures are therefore based on principles of construction. Such is the case with gaet (2008), a blue, extruded polystyrene door or eca (2005), two blocks of expanded polystyrene, one leaning on top of the other, while the middle section has been dug out of the lower one and placed behind the sculpture, suggesting a kind of habitat. A genuine investment in materials animates Panchal's work, affiliating it more closely to Arte Povera than Minimal Art. The sculptures of the Parisian artist, born in 1973, testify to this preoccupation — a rarity among the work of the preceding generation — with matter itself, from paper to textiles to polystyrene to plastic to wool to glass.
The artist is equally interested in the history of a given material, its social role, its economic and ecological implications, and above all, what it is liable to become through the most unexpected processes. His practice consists of burning polythene (laste, 2006), heating up sheets of polystyrene foam (plantian 1, 2008) or even rubbing a curcuma root on a piece of sandpaper. Thus his work is inscribed with a kind of temporal conscience, while any given experiment stirs up, in the words of the artist, "expectations of a revelation."
Panchal seems equally preoccupied with the question of origins, not in the sense of identity, but in the broader sense, as in the origins of signs. He is interested in what sense of origin remains in a given material. leh (2003), a litter of raw petrol on the floor, destined to evaporate, reveals the origin of a material like polystyrene; synthesized in the '20s and '30s, it is also used in a number of Panchal's sculptures. In the same mode, a work like phol (2008) confronts wood and the cellulose acetate from whence it comes. More fundamentally, Panchal concentrates on roots and remainders, whether it deals with matter or language. The enigmatic titles of his sculptures, bits of language devoid of meaning, often have etymological origins or come from archaic words. The work of Gyan Panchal, which inscribes itself in a particularly rich renewal of sculpture by a generation that includes Karla Black, Katincka Bock and even Gedi Sibony, affirms itself by the originality of its preoccupations. Fragile, discreet and powerful, it seeks to inhabit that which remains of origins.

Most importantly is adjusting client expectations at the front end of the representation. The criminal client should be informed how the process of delay works in their favor. How police witnesses lose memory, how prosecutors lose interest, how mitigating facts can be developed over time to favor the client.
Adjusting client expectations, notwithstanding, is never a justification for tardiness in other areas of the representation. For instance, returning phone calls and keeping clients informed of case developments. This is where fast service is king and where improved client loyalty is developed.
In other words, take good care of your clients by responding quickly to their questions. But let them know, up front, the best results in a criminal case often come after long periods of delay.

First Look: 2009 BMW 7 Series
A sneak peek of the new, fifth-generation BMW 7 Series reveals a flagship sedan that retains its essence while improving on virtually all fronts. More of a driver's car than ever, the agile 7 returns with lighter-weight construction, a new suspension and four distinct driving setups (five, if you include the no-holds-barred DSC-off mode). There's also speed-sensitive steering for both front and rear wheels. The U.S. lineup will include the 750i and longer-wheelbase 750Li, both of which will be powered by BMW's new twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8, delivering 400 horsepower, 450 pound-feet of torque and predicted fuel economy in the low 20-mpg range. Inside, a lineup of high-concept innovations like Night Vision with Pedestrian Detection proves to be an attack on the senses. And, yes, iDrive has again been revised to be more intuitive or less frustrating, depending on your experience with previous versions. The more aggressively styled new 7 Series will go on sale in Spring 2009. BMW hasn't announced pricing yet, but don't expect any pleasant surprises in light of the current dollar-euro relationship.

At Forty-Six Cents a Pop, Why Doesn't the Postal Service Make Money?
16 February 2013
16 February 2013
More than a week ago on Slate, Brian Palmer posed the following questions:
"Why Doesn't the Postal Service Make Money? What do UPS and FedEx know that the USPS doesn't?"*
These frequently heard questions seem deliberately determined to undermine a fine, government program that has served America since its founding, by making an odd, apples-to-oranges comparison.
I can send a letter from where I sit, here in Bee Cave, Texas (78738), all the way to Barrow, Alaska (99723) or Mililani, Hawaii (96789) for 46¢, and it will arrive in a day or two.
When was the last time that UPS and FedEx delivered a letter for 46¢? When was the first time either private company did this? Even back in their founding days (1971 for FedEx; 1907 for UPS, which started as a parcel service in Seattle).
Why doesn't the Postal Service make money, indeed?
Forget about Congress's requirement that the USPS fully fund all its pension obligations up front. Forget the requirement that the USPS visit every mail box receiving even a single piece of cut-rate "bulk" mail six or five days a week:
When's the last time you mailed a letter using FedEx or UPS, and got change back from your dollar?
What's missing here? Other than an ideological determination to undermine the constitutional mandate that the United States government provide postal service?

text: Corn Market Strong Ahead of Christmas December 23, 2011 10:15 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By AgWeb.com Editors Email This information is provided by Archer Financial Services, Inc., 800-933-3996. The grain markets put in a strong weekly performance with values climbing 3-7%. The corn market had its 8th strongest weekly performance of the year as corn prices surged nearly 40 cents above last week's close. Soybeans also gained nearly 40 cents while wheat prices reached beyond the 40 cent higher area at one point, for the week. Price performance began to improve two weeks ago in the corn market as March corn tested and briefly violated the $5.80 level and rallied to several strong closes. This week the market broke out of it sideways to lower pattern and is now poised to test its 50-day moving average near $6.28. Look for this level to be challenged early next week. The markets began their turnaround on firming technicals, but gained momentum on growing concerns of Southern Hemisphere weather. One of the market's jobs is to add and extract weather premium as conditions warrant. Although we have not quite entered a timeframe where large scale production declines are being seen, the current weather pattern, especially in Southeast Brazil and Argentina justify adding value to prices. How quickly and to what degree weather premium is added to the market is most anyone's guess. However, if the current weather pattern persists in that part of the world, acute rallies on lower holiday volume cannot be ruled out. At the very least, sellers will be limited based on the current weather conditions. These markets are poised for a solid start to 2012, as growing weather concerns and an expectation of a supportive January production report should keep values inching or leaping higher in the near term. Those that missed out on the solid selling opportunities presented last summer may get another "bite at the apple" early next year. Back to news

Lloyd and Mabrey lead No. 6 Notre Dame to 99-50 win over NC Wilmington to open season
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Jewell Loyd and Michaela Mabrey scored 19 points each Saturday to lead No. 6 Notre Dame to a 99-50 victory over UNC Wilmington in the season opener for both teams.
Despite playing without injured senior forward Natalie Achonwa, Notre Dame dominated the boards, outrebounding UNCW 52-24. Freshman forward Taya Reimer led with 12 rebounds, followed by Loyd with 11.
Notre Dame senior guard Kayla McBride scored 17 points.
Junior guard Kelva Atkins, the Seahawks' lone returning starter from last season, scored 16 points.
Notre Dame scored with ease in the paint. Their transition game and repeated drives to the hoop were simply too much for UNC Wilmington to handle.
The Irish led 51-22 at halftime.
Consecutive layups by Loyd and freshman Lindsay Allen sparked a 12-0 run over a 4:30 span in the second half that removed any doubt.

The other day I noticed that the miniseries "The Kennedys" is available for streaming on Netflix and though I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, when I do watch it I anticipate enjoying a glimpse into an era in the United States' history that I completely missed out on. Growing up, my mom would tell me and my siblings stories about the Kennedys, but I have never had a very concrete idea of who they were or the vast influence they had on American politics, culture, history, and fashion.
I decided to do a Pinterest search for "Jackie O." and I found some common themes among her outfits that I though I would highlight here:
1. Dresses with fitted bodices and full or flared skirts
2. Short strands of pearls
3. Jackets with curvy, rather than boxy, elements
4. Over-sized sunglasses
5. Fitted tops and sweaters

Title: The Medusa Amulet
Author: Robert Masello
Genre: Historical Thriller
Paperback: 464 Pages
List Price: £6,99
A mysterious widow offers David Franco, an art historian who admires the great artist Benvenuto Cellini, the chance of his lifetime - to save his dying sister by paying him a million dollars to find a legendary amulet crafted by Cellini himself. The woman believes this amulet crested with the face of the medusa is supposed to give immortality. Whoever stares into the mirror of the Medusa Amulet on a moonlit night, shall live an eternal life. With this David sees the opportunity to pay of Sarah's medical bills, but also sees the difficulty of the quest as he doesn't believe in the powers of the amulet, but he has to have faith in the existence in order to save his sister. He throws himself into a desperate search that soon turns into a race against time. His search leads him to Italy and France, where he finds information that lasted throughout the centuries and brings him closer to finding the amulet. But there are others who want to stop him and they will do anything to keep the powers of the amulet for themselves. Together with his new acquaintance Olivia he starts to discover unbelievable things which soon let him believe in eternal life.
"All he wanted was eternity... and it never occurred to him that eternity could be the loneliest destination of all." ~ S. 413
The story is split into two time sequences. We start of by getting to know the historical figur of Benvenuto Cellini in the 16th century and later on meet David in the present. I really enjoyed the mix between past and present and the way those times were connected. Through this and the combination of thriller, fantasy, mystery and historical elements I actually felt as a part of the quest for eternal life and for at least 464 pages I actually believed in the existence of immortality. The overall plot is a great mix between fact and fiction, which makes the story all more exciting, because you actually get to know Cellini's work and can't always tell what is true and whatnot.
"David, who was so good when it came to talking about an edition of Dante, was again at a loss for words." ~ S. 190
Even though the story itself is gripping, the characters aren't so much. Especially David and Olivia are likeable, but they are still rather shallow to me. The reader finds out how much David is willing to do for his sister, but that's about it. I didn't really get a hang for him. Also the love story between the two characters was really forced and I wouldn't have needed it - they could have just continued to work together. The mysterious widow Caterina was much more interesting, despite her not being very detailed either, but her story and love to Cellini was just really fascinating. Which leads to Benvenuto Cellini, who I actually enjoyed getting to know. He wasn't always a pleasure for his fellows and this made him such a pleasure for me to learn more about him. Both, Cellini and Caterina, were a lot more credible and plausible for me. I wouldn't have minded them taking up more of the story.
I had a great time while I read The Medusa Amulet, but especially during the second half of the story I lost my interested, but it was actually regained at the end. Even though I mostly enjoyed the book, I can only give 3 out of 5 points due to the rather shallow characters and some other minor flaws, which I can't tell without giving away parts of the story.

With a GDP of 18, 394 billion USD, The European Union (EU) is the largest and most economically powerful union of states in the world nowadays. But how does the EU trading power compare to other union of states in the world and historically?
Photo source: Wikimedia commons
Some EU Performance Indicators:
- World market share of EU is 18.4% - decreasing 1.7% in the last 10 years
- The free European Health Insurance Card gives health services to over 160 million people
- Gender equality - 59% of university graduates are women
- Increased mobility for travel and for work - no visas or passport controls among Schengen countries
- Fight against discrimination - 1 in 3 EU residents have witnessed and 1 in 7 have experienced discrimination
- Fatal workplace accidents have decreased 17% in this decade
- Cleaner environment - EU leads the 'Kyoto' protocol
Continental Unions in the World Today
Currently, there are three continental unions in the world today. The EU, the African Union, and the Union of South American Nations. Of these only the EU has no borders among most member states, a common currency, common foreign policy, common parliament and laws (though each member state retains their own parliaments, laws and foreign policies).
- Union State of Russia and Belarus is a loose marriage between Russian Federation and Belarus. Both countries seem to have got tired of the marriage and still have customs borders.
- The Commonwealth of Independent States was created from the debris of the Soviet Union but is much looser than the EU. 277 million people living in 22 million km2 earn $6,110 per capita gdp in 11 currencies.
- In the African Union 850 million people living in 29, 757 million km2, speaking 2000 languages, earn $ 1,896 per capita gdp in 53 different currencies.
- In the EU 500 million people speaking 23 languages, living in 4,3 million km2 earn $30,513 per capita gdp in Euros in 16 countries, while 11 countries have their own currencies.
Historical Share of World GDP
The economic historian Angus Maddison of the University of Groningen in his work The World Economy: Historical Statistics gives a perspective in historical share of world GDP per region.
Some changes from 100 AD: A new player called the Islamic Caliphate has 18.5%, Japan has doubled its share and the Roman Empire has disappeared.
Current situation: The British Empire has vanished, giving top place to USA. China is retaking its place high up. India is also sluggishly ascending back.
How Does The EU Compare With historical Empires
Alexander the Great's Hellenic empire at its largest around 323 B.C. Much smaller than the current EU.
The Roman Empire at its largest 118 A.D. is almost the same size as the EU today.
Charlemagne's empire at its largest around 800 A.D. is a tiny affair compared to the EU today.
Unions of States Proposed and In the Process
- The Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD) with 31 member states was created in 2002 to promote Asian cooperation at a continental level, combining ASEAN, SAARC or the Gulf Cooperation Council. Non-members are Afghanistan, North Korea, Iraq, Israel, Turkey etc.
- The Union of South American Nations plans to integrate Mercosur and the Andean Community of Nations in the EU model by eliminating tariffs by 2019.
- Six Arab states in the Persian Gulf have planned the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf trade bloc.
- The NAU (North American Union) of Canada, Mexico and United States, with a common currency Amero is just a proposal and bête noire of conspiracy theories.
Trivia Statistics from EU
- 50% of energy used in EU comes from outside EU. Only one country, Denmark exports energy.
- 24% of the world's milk production comes from the EU
- Tallinn, Estonia has the highest percentage of non-EU residents 27.8%.
- In Latvia 54% of university professors were women and 1.3% in Poland.
- The UK puts 139 people out of 100 000 in its national population to prison, while India puts 28 and the United States 686.
- The land area covered by forests increased in the EU by 4.8% between 1990-2005.
- Denmark, Finland and Sweden; countries consistently in the top 5 places of least corruption in the world according to Transparency International have been the choice destinations of refugees from Somalia, the country persistently occupying the bottom rung.

"Who do I call if I want to speak to Europe?" - Henry Kissinger is supposed to have said this once. This is totally apocryphal, he never said it.
According to Financial Times
According to Financial Times
"Kissinger's concern was the precise opposite – he was fed up with having to deal with a Dane whom he regarded as incompetent and ineffective, who was trying to represent the whole of the EU as President of the Council. "
The direct phone number of the EU is 00 800 6 7 8 9 10 11

VANCOUVER (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said on Monday he was confident that TransCanada Corp's controversial Keystone XL pipeline would be eventually approved by U.S. authorities.
U.S. President Barack Obama is set this year to decide the fate of the northern leg of the proposed project, which would carry crude from the Alberta oil sands in Canada to the U.S. Gulf Coast. Obama is under heavy pressure from environmental activists to block the pipeline.
"I am confident that in due course - I can't put a timeline on it - the project will one way or another proceed," Harper said during a question-and-answer session at the Vancouver Board of Trade.
The event was disrupted when two climate protesters walked onto the stage and held up signs as they stood next to Harper. One of the placards said "Climate justice now."
Green groups say building the pipeline will speed up extraction of oil from the tar sands - a process that consumes more energy than regular drilling.
Harper's chief spokesman declined to comment on the security breach.
Canada's right-leaning Conservative government strongly backs the pipeline and Harper repeated his view that he hoped Washington would approve it, given what he said was the strong support for the project among American politicians and the general U.S. population.
The timeline for U.S. approval has slipped repeatedly and Harper said Obama had "punted" the decision.
In September, Harper told a New York audience that the logic behind the pipeline was "simply overwhelming" and said "you don't take no for an answer." The 1,200-mile (1,900-km) pipeline would carry 830,000 barrels a day.
Environmentalists and aboriginal groups are also strongly opposed to Enbridge Corp's proposed Northern Gateway pipeline from the oil sands to the British Columbia coast and from there to Asian markets.
The government backs the idea of more pipeline capacity to the Pacific coast on the grounds that Canada needs to reduce reliance on the United States, which takes around 99 percent of Canadian energy exports.
Late last month a review panel recommended the pipeline be built. Ottawa has until the middle of June to make a decision.
"We will not approve projects unless they're not only in our economic interest but also they meet the highest standards of environmental protection," said Harper.
Opponents of the Northern Gateway - part of which would run across aboriginal lands as well as crossing remote areas - say a breach would cause an environmental catastrophe.
A group of about 20 anti-pipeline protesters gathered outside the Vancouver hotel where the event took place, beating drums and chanting "We don't want your dirty oil."
Harper also said he was more optimistic about the economy in 2014 than in past years because of evidence of stronger growth in the United States and a comeback in Europe.

Lie flat on your again along with your knees bent. Place your palms behind your head with elbows pointing outwards. Assist your neck together with your arms. Hold your neck in a straight line along with your backbone. Flex your waist to lift the higher torso from the mat. Decrease your self till the again of your shoulders touches the mat. However that's already in place. Now, here is the second factor that you must know. Should you're one among over 40 million People who do not have health insurance coverage — together with a whole bunch of thousands of folks proper here in Maryland — beginning on Tuesday, five days from now, you'll finally have the same probability to buy high quality, reasonably priced health care as all people else.
I like food. I literally LOVE meals. Whereas I'm eating breakfast, I am desirous about lunch and while eating lunch, I'm planning supper. Then after supper when I am relaxing I'm checking out dishes on food spotting, catching up on restaurant news on the Squaremeal or simply studying a recipe guide (although not all at the identical time)…..you get the picture….I am OBSESSED!!
Each semester, Fastweb helps 1000's of students pay for school by matching them to scholarships, grants, and internships, for which they actually qualify. You may find scholarships like the Course Hero's $5,000 Scholarship , and easy to enter scholarships like Niche $2,000 No Essay Scholarship , and internships with corporations like Apple, Google, Dreamworks, and even NASA!
Lastly, reform will present each American with some primary consumer protections that will lastly hold insurance coverage corporations accountable. A 2007 national survey actually exhibits that insurance companies discriminated against greater than 12 million Americans within the previous three years as a result of that they had a pre-present sickness or situation. The businesses either refused to cowl the particular person, refused to cowl a selected sickness or situation or charged the next premium.
The mind is what captures and motivates our our bodies primarily based on what we do or don't do. When we are optimistic and lively, the thoughts strikes us ahead. When we are (lazy) relaxed, our thoughts tells us that it's OKAY and we will get issues achieved later. That leads to apathy. Apathy is a mental condition that results in melancholy, diabetes, and weight problems. That's the hardest factor of health to beat.

Every little monkey needs to get up and move!
"Sleepy Little Monkey / Won't get out of bed. // Mama called the Doctor / And the Doctor said: / 'Apple Juice, / Orange Juice, / Gooseberry Pies— / Monkey needs / some exercise!' " Little Monkey pops out of bed and, after dressing, does some quick calisthenics. "First you get the rhythm of the head: / Ding-Dong! // Have you got the rhythm of the head? / Ding-Dong!" A sway of the head accompanies each ding-dong. Then there's a clap and a stomp. There's some hip shaking. "Put them all together / You'll be feeling so much better." Monkey goes through the movements forward and backward and gives a cheer. "Spunky Little Monkey / Ready for the day. / Come on, Monkey— / LET'S GO PLAY!" A frequent collaborator of the deceased Martin's, Sampson turns out a rhythmic invitation to wiggle in the morning. The text's catchy enough that little monkeys will want to hear it again and simple enough they'll learn it quickly. Won's big, bright digital illustrations (made from scanned watercolor washes) feature an adorable, rosy-cheeked monkey of indeterminate gender in jean shorts and striped T-shirt going through the motions before running off with animal friends. It may be a bit unclear exactly what motions are called for each time, but Little Monkey's moving, and that's the point.
Great for storytime or for little monkeys who need encouragement to run around. (Picture book. 2-5)

2015 Honda CR-V vs 2014 Honda CR-V
Honda first showed off the refreshed 2015 CR-V last September with an angle shot of the new crossover. A few days later the automaker released more photos. Not the most exciting release but it is, after all, a mid-cycle refresh. With the availability of more photos of the 2015 Honda CR-V a more detailed comparison of the exterior and interior shows that the front fascia is the most noticeable change between the new and outgoing model. Narrow headlights and a new bumper enveloping a single-bar grill give the 2015 CR-V a more aggressive stance. Minimal change in the rear includes a tweaked bumper and relocation of the reflector lights. The interior stays relatively the same except for the addition of the push-button ignition to the left of the center console. The silhouette stays the same as this is only a mild refresh and not a complete redesign.

This year's annual Cereal Schools hosted by Idaho Wheat Commission, Idaho Barley Commission and the University of Idaho, are set to roll through Northern Idaho and Eastern and Southern Idaho the last week of January and the first week of February.
University of Idaho personnel in north Idaho will focus on variety testing and liming research in wheat-legume rotations; regional soil pH survey results; weed control in cereals and legumes; a canola production update; and crop costs and returns updates.
"Attendees can expect the latest information about ongoing grass and broadleaf weed control in grains and legumes, learn about our regional soil acidity problems and new research to address those issues," said Doug Finkelnburg, UI extension cropping systems educator in Nez Perce County.
A discussion of the economics of oilseed production and changing costs of production and their implications to area producers are also on the agenda, he said.
Educators in southeast Idaho will address vole control; insect and weed control using cover crops; last season's insect issues; herbicide resistant weed management; managing cereal diseases; variety selection; and water management, including managing curtailment, input costs, grain quality and water efficiency.
The discussion on cereal diseases will focus on all the practices available to reduce disease, said Juliet Marshall, University of Idaho cereal pathologist.
Disease management is a multi-pronged approach, including fungicides, variety selection, irrigation management, and residue and rotation management, she said.
State pesticide applicator and certified crop advisor credits are offered. Lunch will be provided. Registration fees vary by location to help defray costs.

The Finance Ministry is all set to present the Annual Budget on 1st February 2017. Everyone is eagerly awaiting the Finance Ministers speech and there has been a lot of speculations regarding the outcome of that speech.
Demonetisation had caused Nifty to sink to 7900 points but the market has recovered since then. The fate of this recovery will again depend on the result of the budget. There is an expectation of a positive impact to counter the negative effect of demonetisation.
Many investors alter their portfolio by speculating on what may be the possible outcome of the Finance ministers plan. This is not a wise thing to do as the fundamentals of financial planning and investing – Stick to a log-term plan. Since there are many speculations it is not a good decision to change positions in anticipation of a positive outcome.
Be an Intelligent Investor:-
- Diversify your Investments – The Budget presentation does not alter the time at which a particular asset class performs. Don't keep all your eggs in one basket.
- Don't rely on the past results – The history may not necessarily repeat itself. Don't make decisions keeping in mind past results.
- Research – Gather all possible knowledge regarding the investment decision you are going to make.
- Rumours – Stay away from rumours as people creating those rumours might want to exit with a profit at someone else's expense.
- Cautious entry – Enter cautiously – when people start selling quality shares due to either fear or misinterpretation of some proposals of the budget the prices might dip which creates a good opportunity to enter.
- Relax – Fear, panic and volatility is the part and parcel of the market and over time the growth of a quality stock is reflected in its price over the period.
Two aspects the investor should looCapital gains tax and corporate tax are the two things to look for in the budget as an investor. The General Anti-avoidance Rules (GAAR) is set to roll out with an intention to curb tax havens and make it more difficult to avail tax exemptions
Don't let the volatility unsettle you, stick to your long-term objectives as the budget is just a small event in your path leading towards wealth creation.

Adding Confidence to Your Trading Decisions
Retail Sentiment chart displays the ratio of bullish-to-bearish sentiments, as published by Investing.com, a global financial portal. It is widely assumed that the majority of retail traders are usually wrong in their assessment about future price direction and tend to oppose the prevailing trend. Therefore, one possible way to make money in natural gas trading is to do the opposite of what retail traders are doing. In other words, one can use retail sentiment chart as a contrarian indicator. When most are long, expect price losses. When most are short, expect price gains. Surely, this is a very simplistic approach, but can still offer additional guidance at trading.
Data is available from January 16, 2017.

When Nero at Rome gave a party and used human flesh to lighten the party garden . It's been told that those human bodies are of branded culprits and who got sentences !
All the historians are interested to know who were Nero's guest as they are the people who shared the joy with Nero ! they were elites of Rome ,the senators ,the intellectuals (hired or can be hired at any rate !) and no doubt the Bourgeoisie civil society members
They must be delighted as those lights were been lit by convicted persons'(!) body but how we digest innocent body burning with music ,laughter & celebration ? ! I belive we are way ahead than Nero's guests …
Joyotu Bangladesh tui sotiyei bichitro !
P.S: I better be a Nero's guest than a member of civil society of Bangladesh !

The ArtsHub in Action
November 15, 2017
Not everyone knows that The ArtsHub @ Artists Rep is home to 12 resident companies, 25 resident artists and that we hosted 602 events and 324 rehearsals by 51 groups in the last year.
The ArtsHub sprung out of our natural inclination to share underutilized parts of our facility. We're inviting folks into our home to do their own thing and serve the community in a different way than we ever could on our own. We want that home to be vibrant and bustling, so we're providing access to affordable space and staffing to elevate the abilities of our guests to do what they do best: create and share their work with others.
For most companies, closing Caught, loading in The Humans and opening resident company Profile Theatre's rotating repertory of Water by the Spoonful and The Happiest Song Plays Last all in one month would be plenty, but that's only the beginning. On non-show nights, we'll host events on a live set. It's practically unheard of in large theatres across the country because frankly, it's easier not to. However, space for the arts is hard to come by in Portland and it doesn't feel right to let our theatres sit dark.
In November we've partnered with PlayWrite Inc. on workshops to help writers of all levels develop one-act plays, culminating in a night of performances onstage. We'll also host a series of one-time events including: a CD release party by resident company Portland Revels, annual elections for our neighbors the Timbers Army, monthly Bystander Intervention workshops by Don't Shoot Portland and a celebration of the unique culture of the Maasai people of Kenya by The Friends of Sironka Dance. In our studios, we'll house rehearsals for resident company The August Wilson Red Door Project's production of Hands Up, a reading of Dead Special Crabs by resident company LineStorm's Dan Kitrosser, a workshop for teaching artists by Young Audiences, and weekly classes by resident artists Michael Mendelson, Chris Harder, Sarah Lucht, local actor Joe Costa and resident company Staged! Conservatory. In addition, our newest resident company, Portland Actors Conservatory, operates up to three classes a day for the 23 students in their two-year accredited professional actor training program. To top it all off, we'll finish up our FOURTH set build this month for resident company Portland Shakespeare Project's world premiere of Pericles Wet by local playwright Ellen Margolis in December. What a month!
We envision the ArtsHub as a model for theatres across the country, demonstrating a commitment to share, to engage, and to ensure our creative communities have a place we can all call home. Check out our website and learn more about what's happening here next month. Our home is always bustling with new art and we want to share it with you. Join us.
Jerry Tischleder
ArtsHub Director

Was the helicopter there to gave police on the ground directions for pushing their analtifa thugs and the other permit holding protesters together for the big fight. Friends be very wary of police, they appear to be on the violent socialist side, maybe nothing more than the governors bully boys. To bad the alfalfa idiot in the car didn't hit a couple of them. Fuck those police scum bags.

I acquired this opener a few months back and mounted it myself (with the help of my spouse) just final 7 days. It changed a 21-calendar year-old opener that had quit Doing work. My In general impact today would be that the Genie Quietlift 800 is an extremely top quality opener. The Guidelines that arrived While using the opener had been full, straight-forward, and simple to abide by. It took me close to 5 several hours to setup it, but I am sluggish and doubtless too meticulous Once i set up things like this. I was able to use ... read through additional several of the present mounting brackets (for the header, door, ability head), but I did opt for to switch all of the present wiring, which took a bulk with the installation time for the reason that I desired to make the wiring as inconspicuous as you can.
I changed my seven yr outdated Craftsman (chain driven) garage door opener with this particular just one and I could not be happier. Installation was a breeze as I used to be capable of use all current brackets and wires from my more mature device. In actual fact I even utilised the outdated sensors just because they labored and I did not need to re-run The brand new types if I did not should. I could not believe that how much quieter opener is compared to my chain driven 1.
The garage door opener and and so forth. that I ordered was , to me about priced compared to the 1 on the internet. I failed to Examine until eventually afterwards. I'm not extremely content about that. Ms Rowena Faxio
Effortless to install, operates reliably and can't believe how silent the motor is! Would advise this product or service.
Miguel was well mannered and very professional.He demonstrate many of the features of the garage opener and built some suggestions regarding how to retain the door and opener retain.I are already a Sears client for 30 moreover yrs and is not going to transform to obtain any home appliances from every other retail outlet since I benefit the proses ions get the job done completed from Sears and Miguel proof what helps make a fantastic consumer hold buying the items and have someone with expertise put in and a fast and neat way.
I used to be explained to which i must get the incorrect garage door opener by the gross sales human being. In the event the garage door was mounted they may not place in opener as it was the incorrect type. the ceiling is just too minimal so I necessary on that could be attached towards the wall.
Stress on the opener and door is significantly diminished via the unit's capability to accelerate at first with the cycle and cut down velocity at the top. This also will make for quieter door operation and increases daily life.
An average Variation of the overhead garage door employed in past times would've been constructed to be a a single-piece panel.[one] The panel was mounted on either side with unequal parallelogram design and style hinge lifting mechanism. Newer variations of overhead garage doors are actually typically crafted from many panels hinged alongside one another that roll along a system of tracks guided by rollers.
