Monday Morning Quarterback Tours the Knoll New York ShowroomCompany Leverages Workplace Research to Realize New Space
October 08, 2013
Monday Morning Quarterback (MMQB) tours the Knoll New York Showroom, which opened in midtown Manhattan in May, and highlights the company's planning approach and product selection in a two-part series in the September 30 and October 8, 2013 issues. MMQB calls the new space "a national destination showroom" that draws customers from "around the country and the world," and declares "Knoll is modern always."
MMQB is the contract furniture industry online publication that offers news analysis and opinion on today's top stories, ideas and investments, explaining what's new in the business of commercial furnishings and why it matters to the business leaders and investors who are shaping the future of the workplace.
The new location, which neighbors The Museum of Modern Art and the Black Rock building, is a "a bustling area" filled with tourists and city workers "heading to and from the city's transportation hubs in the area," observes MMQB writer, Rob Kirkbride.
"It is also a homecoming, of sorts, for Knoll," continues Kirkbride. The company was founded in the neighborhood in 1938 by Hans Knoll.
When planning for its move, Knoll faced many of the same challenges its clients face. "Knoll tackled its New York headquarters the same way it would for its customers: by examining the key financial and organization priorities, shifting work styles and changing technology," writes Kirkbride.
"Office planning doesn't start with products. It starts with planning," David Bright, Senior Vice President of Communications says. "Like a lot of our clients, we started by discussing what we needed," continues David Schutte, Knoll Chief Marketing Officer.
Knoll required a showroom that showcased office planning solutions that Knoll has been known for since its founding, while also creating a space that would support the needs of its New York-based employees. Kirkbride notes that Knoll leveraged a broad portfolio of workplace research to design a space that meets business objectives and that reflect the way people are working and using office space today.
The new showroom and offices are based on a reduced footprint verses its prior Chelsea location. "A reduction is square footage can actually improve working relationships, create interactions and introduce adjacencies within the office," said Kim Yao, principal of Architecture Research Office, the project architect that designed the space.
Knoll balanced a reduction in overall square-footage by integrating a variety of informal areas, called Activity Spaces, to complement individual workstations and give people freedom over where they work in the office. Nicole Coughlin, Knoll marketing director said, "Activity Spaces create visual interest and are an opportunity for an organization to express its brand and culture. At our New York hub, Knoll used activity spaces to create a variety of spaces for a variety of work."
The new showroom is also sensitive to the technology needs of its employees. Kirkbride notes, "The company believes in being platform neutral – not building any one technology into a product, but supporting all of them." Thus the showroom features products, such as Antenna® Workspaces and Interpole™ that support current technology needs while being easily adaptable to future demands.
The open plan offices showcase the versatility of Antenna® Workspaces, which "can be planned for both individual and common use areas; freedom and mobility."
Interpole™, the new vertical planning system, "is based on a floor-to-ceiling H-Post that provides structure for technology, space definition and storage," Kirkbride writes. It can also be used as a stand-alone product to distribute power, or for "for holding large, interactive flat screen-monitor and defining space."
"A flat screen monitor hung from an Interpole shows off Knoll's newly designed website -- one of the best in the industry -- that was launched in April," Kirkbride says.
MMQB also visited the Knoll Shop, the company's first retail location – "a jewel box street-level store that has a high profile on 6th Avenue."
The Modern always™ campaign, which celebrates the Knoll 75th anniversary by juxtaposing contemporary designers with design icons in a series of print advertising campaigns, is also highlighted.
"Yes, we are celebrating the past but it's really about how the past informs the future," says Knoll President and COO, Lynn Utter.
At the showroom level, the showroom conveys "a sense of legacy, buy also the idea that Knoll is a company focused on the future of work as well," writes Kirkbride. "Knoll is modern and classic at the same time, true to its past while pushing the envelope in materials and design. In short, it is modern always," he concludes.

Spanish giants Deportivo La Coruna have reassured Arsenal they will go all out to win their final Champions' League group game against Bayer Leverkusen - which would ensure the Gunners' quarter-finals place.
Arsenal have been left with a complicated set of scenarios following their 2-0 home defeat by the Spanish side last night.
There are only two certainties. Deportivo, who travel to Leverkusen next Wednesday, are through with 10 points, while Juventus, who play host to Arsenal that night, are definitely out with just four points.
Meanwhile, the Gunners are tied with Leverkusen on seven points but the intricate qualifying system - involving results between sides level on points rather than goal differences - means the other possibilities are numerous.
So while Arsenal can go out despite winning, they can also go through despite losing.
Either way, it is out of their own hands and they are relying on Deportivo to avoid defeat against Leverkusen even though they lost 3-0 in Germany last December.
At least the Spanish side's incentive is that finishing first would avoid other group winners, including Real Madrid and possibly Manchester United, in the quarter-finals.
Coach Javier Irureta said: "Of course, I think Arsenal can win in Turin. They are very well set up to counter attack and if they play well, I think they are going to win.
"I would be happy for them to win there and we will be trying to get at least a point against Leverkusen. We always play to win."
One downside for Arsenal is that Deportivo, who picked up five bookings at Highbury, now have two players suspended for next Wednesday's game - Victor and Lionel Scaloni.
Dutch international Roy Makaay, who could come into the side, added: "Of course we want to finish first but it is a comfort to know you are already going through.
"We will try to win for our home crowd but the coach will also be able to rest some players and we will have suspensions. Like you saw here, we always try to win though."
Irureta's team were outstanding in halting the hosts' seven-match winning streak in European Cup matches at Highbury.
Goals from Juan Carlos Valeron and Nourredine Naybet contributed to the win in north London.

So I had my date with the Slovakian Guy last night. I actually had really high hopes for this date. He had seemed totally cool when we had chatted. He was adventurous, had traveled a lot, his profile stated ("stated" being the operative word here) that he had been to college and worked in property (I was to find that this occupation was a landscape gardener – an occupation I thought was somewhat twisting the confines of being within the property industry).
He took complete charge of the date – which I really like in a guy – and had decided to pick me up and take us both to Brighton-Le-Sands – a beach about 15 minutes drives outside of Sydney with lots of cafes and bars. Upon realizing my concern that I was somewhat uncomfortable with being picked up by a complete stranger (!), we agreed that we would meet at Darling Harbor in the city.
I was – again – disappointed when I first saw him. He described himself as being 5'10" – so being 5'6″ myself – I was never expecting Goliath – but… yeah… he definitely WAS NOT 5'10". You might think I am being quite bitchy and picky about the whole height thing – but the truth is – I like my big guys!
Also – there was a limp issue.
He was a really sweet guy though. We went to a nice Indian restaurant on the harbor and the conversation was good – had a little trouble understanding his Slovakian/Australian accent – but for the most part it was okay. We always had something to talk about which was great.
After the restaurant, we headed to Bungalow 8 – a bar on the harbor front – and chatted for another couple of hours. Following that we finished up by going to a club in the city – where we stayed until 5am.
This club was where the awkward situation occurred. Picture the scene: we are getting along great, absolutely no physical attraction on my part though (ABSOLUTELY NO PHYSICAL ATTRACTION!) but I am enjoying his company – and he leans in for a kiss. Well actually – he had tried earlier in the night but his kiss had landed haphazardly on my cheek when I unexpectantly turned my head – but this time … I JUST PANICKED! I kissed him back.
It was like making out with a cut cantaloupe. That's when I knew that no matter how great the conversation ever got between us – The Slovakian Guy and I would never work out.
On a side note – I think "Fishing for … fish!" needs a Kiss-O-Meter widget. Also – The Scarface Guy messaged me asking for another date. I didn't reply.

An Outdoor Table ~
18 comments:
It really is the little things in life worth perfecting. Eating out side is one of my favorites as well.ReplyDelete
Beautiful....the gift, the setting...all of it.ReplyDelete
You sweet doll, you! I love the way your table looks. I just knew you had to have that table cloth for your wine country living. But did you know that banana cream pie is my absolute favorite? No, really. I love it. Now I must try your recipe and of course, I'll be saving a helping for breakfast.ReplyDelete
P.S. Let me know how the napkins hold up. It was my first attempt so there may be room for improvement. =)
Oh my golly! perfection!ReplyDelete
PS: don't forget this giveaway end today.
that pie looks sooo good!!ReplyDelete
♥ allister bee blog
Sounds just so wonderful Mel!! Love your gift of tablecloth and napkins!ReplyDelete
Art by Karena
Join my Giveaway from the Artisans at Novica! You will love it!
Everything looks wonderfully summer... But the Crumbs little, precious fingers! So sweet.ReplyDelete
Okay, I'm just going to admit that everything I see on your blog makes me want to move to Napa. Outdoor dinners? Yes please.ReplyDelete
Unfortunately the mosquitos would carry us away if we dined outdoors here. I would love to make our front porch a permanent place for dining.ReplyDelete
Funny thing, I've also been saving up vintage tablecloths and plates hoping to spruce up our dining in the kitchen...Every aspect of life needs a little "extra."
Bon appétit, and I look forward to our chat,
I love some Banana Creme Pie. I however find myself in Mandy's position. At this time of year in the Shenandoah Valley, the mosquitos are terrible.ReplyDelete
Beautiful photos! And I love your tablecloth.ReplyDelete
We eat most of our dinners outside on our balcony... it's a far cry from wine country, but it will have to do!
I am enjoying the next best thing Mel, our screened veranda is now finished and what a treat to eat "outdoors" each evening. Actually, I kind of live out there these days, even watching itune movies last night. Will definately try your Banana Cream pie, funny.........I have been craving it! Sounds like you are in the perfect spot. Enjoy the summer. Much love. Xo and xoReplyDelete
I look forward to the day we can share a meal underneath your walnut tree. xoxoReplyDelete
Emailing you right now to coordinate a time to visit!!! I love eating outside. XO!!ReplyDelete
I so love that tablecloth and the napkins! Banana cream pie?? Oh, yes!ReplyDelete
I adore Dr Oetkers!!!! The photos are sublime. Pity the pie can't come through the screen.ReplyDelete
beautiful!! I agree that linens make a table... so pretty!!ReplyDelete
I love Estelle too, and that table setting!! Simply gorgeous.ReplyDelete
We are headed to Sonoma in a few weeks, and I can't wait to fall in love with wine country all over again (as I do every single time I visit =)).

A good boxing gym?
Sunny asks via Twitter:
Anyone have recommendations for a #boxing gym in the Capital Region?
We asked if Sunny was looking for boxing that was more fitness oriented, or for actual competitive boxing:
It's for serious fitness I guess--not looking for a foo-foo gym with boxing classes, but not to compete nec. either.
There seem to be a fair a number of gyms that offer some sort of boxing program, but we're guessing they include a wide range -- from the "foo-foo" (as Sunny puts it) all the way up to yep-we're-going-to-hit-someone-in-the-face programs.
So, got a suggestion for Sunny? Please share!
Earlier on AOA: A few years back we talked with pro boxer Sarah Kuhn (that's her in the pic), who had gotten into the sport because she was looking for a better way to get in shape.
My sons love Schott's boxing gym off Central on Vatrano Rd. It's a super 1 hour workout, not expensive, and definitely not foo-foo. There's no face hitting in the 1 hour fitness classes, but they may offer it in other classes.
Schott's Boxing on Vatrano Rd Albany
I think the Emerald Athletic Club might also have it
Maximum Fitness in Troy
Millhouse Boxing in Cohoes is a great workout. It is run by Shawn Miller, the professional boxer from Troy.
Max Fitness in Troy. There are private trainers there teaching at nights (I've never used them), but if you just want to use the equipment it's a great space for a no-nonsense weight training. The trainers don't get in your way or get possessive of equipment.
Rick Sweeney in Delmar. Rick is a great guy and excellent trainer.
Schott's Boxing is by far the best.
Albany Boxing on Quail Street in Albany is also very good. They are known for their youth program, but Coaches Jerrick Jones and Corey Landis are both great, and very willing to teach newcomers. Adults train weekday evenings. Definitely not foo-foo! They don't offer structured classes like Schott's but well worth checking out.
I also recommend Schotts Boxing. Andy Schott knows his stuff and it's a friendly safe enviroment for people of all ages, sexes and sizes.
Looking for a place to start my son in boxing early. He is 6 years old. Any suggestions anywhere in the Albany area? Private coaches are fine too!
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

* Be sure to read Part 1 to understand where this picks up.
Fear of the Unknown. This is why those who have tasted and seen must share what we have found! How will others know of this lifestyle of daily intimacy with the LORD if those who are living it do not inform others that it is real? Of course it is scary to venture out into unknown waters! When my wife and I stopped attending services each week, I didn't know what to do with myself. I felt guilty. I felt like I was doing something wrong. I thought that I would spiritually die. After all, this is what had been drilled into me my entire life! But, my response is what determined my result! I chose to cling closer to my Father than I ever had. I chose to study who I am in Christ. I chose to surround myself with a handful of others who I trusted and knew were seeking the LORD. What I found was that I grew more spiritually in one year of this environment than I did in thirty-plus years of "church attendance" (and yes, sadly, this even includes my few years of being a youth pastor). Without the support of others who were on this journey with me and most importantly, the LORD honoring my willingness to embark into the unknown, I would not have made it. Fear is a powerful tool of religion, but it is a lie. The LORD has not given us a spirit of fear! One cannot excuse away the shackles of bondage if the key to their freedom is in their very own hands.
Fear of Rejection. The fear of rejection is likely even more powerful than the fear of the unknown. Imagine paring venturing into the unknown with doing so alone! No one likes to go it alone all of the time. Even I, who doesn't mind independence whatsoever, greatly desire to fellowship with others who are hearing what the LORD is speaking. It is a necessary component for spiritual growth, without question. The Body is a unified Body made up of parts, functions and gifts. Oddly, weekly acquaintances have given masses of Christians the false feeling of acceptance and Body life. It is a poor impersonation of what the true Body is to be. In order to stand up and question what the majority embraces as truth, one must determine whether or not they're ready to be rejected. For me, one question sums it all up - is what I believe so valuable and true that I'm willing to be rejected and ostracized for it? If what one embraces as truth can be laid down in order to be accepted and approved by men, it has no real importance to them in the first place. While I don't desire to be labeled a heretic, I'm learning to stand tall despite opposition or ridicule. One must be determined to stand up and cling to what the LORD defines as acceptable, even if it labels you as an outcast.
The truth of the matter is this - most will continue to follow the masses. Most will stay within the walls of the positional church and just do whatever they are told. It is easy. It is simple. Following the cloud takes great faith. It takes a pioneering spirit. It takes a willingness to go where few others are going. The Word prophesies that many will be led astray and not even know it. Many will just follow the masses, assuming they know the way. I understand this, yet my cry will remain the same - will you dare to look and see? Will you follow the quiet call of the LORD over the loud cries of men? Will you at least walk outside of the gates and see what awaits you there?
What great treasure was ever found by a prospector who never unearthed any dirt? What lands were ever discovered by an explorer who remained in his own homeland? What invention was ever created by one who never dared to do what no one else had done before? Is it not the same in the spiritual? Venture out! Dare to believe that there is more! Leave the crowd and follow the cloud my friend! No words could ever express what beauty, purpose, joy, anticipation, and life awaits you there! You can do it, if you are willing to study and leave ignorance behind, abandoning the errant teachings of days gone by. You can do it, if you lay aside your personal objections to the idea and seek to understand what true Christianity looks like. You can do it, if you can leave the comfort zones of conformity and embark into new territories, relying on the LORD for strength. You can do it, if you can journey into the unknown, daring to believe that there is more out there than what you've known. You can do it, if you lay down your fear of rejection and your desire to please men above the LORD. You can do it! Ask the LORD what He would speak to you on this matter. Study His Word and know why you believe what you do. Unplug from the things of this world and envelope yourself in what strengthens your inner man! Now is the time. Tomorrow is almost here and will soon be gone itself. Seek the LORD while He may be found. Will you dare to venture out my friend? Will you leave the crowd and follow the cloud?

Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays. My fondest memories of Easter as a child were receiving a bike from the Easter bunny and spending Easter at my grandparents house in South Dakota. My grandparents had the best yard for hiding eggs and my grandma would always make us a bunny cake.
Easter for me is truly a special time both personally, but also spiritually.
I love this simple yet classic Easter cake via Kara's Party Ideas
I love this cake and the fun bright colors via Anders Ruff
and my favorite.. Petter Cotton Tail
Cheers to Bunny Cakes, Carrot Cake and Mimosas!
Happy Easter.

US Wins Another Gold in Snowboarding
Jamie Anderson has given the United States a sweep in slopestyle snowboarding at the Sochi Olympics.
Anderson soared her way to gold medal in a near flawless run Sunday, a day after Sage Kotsenburg captured in the men's gold medal.
American Bode Miller, one of the pre-race favorites in today's men's Olympic downhill, lost speed on the lower half of the course and faded to a disappointing eighth as Matthias Mayer of Austria won the gold medal.
Italy took silver and Norway earned bronze. Another pre-race favorite, Norwegian Aksel Lund Svindal, also struggled and finished fourth.
Mayer's Gold was a big upset Sunday in one of the Olympics' marquee events. "It's amazing to be an Olympic champion," he said.
Irene Wust took gold as she showed why speedskating is Dutch territory; and Russia scored gold in team figure skating.
SKIING: In a country where skiing is revered, Mayer gave Austria a jolt. A few weeks ago he was not even considered the nation's best shot for gold. But he covered the Rosa Khutor course in 2 minutes, 6.23 seconds and beat Italy's Christof Innerhofer by 0.06 seconds. Norway's Kjetil Jansrud won the bronze. Miller, who dominated the training runs, was so unnerved by the change of visibility he thought he'd have "to do something magical to win." That was left to Mayer, who enjoys good skiing bloodlines — his father, Helmut, won a super-G silver medal at the 1988 Calgary Games.
FIGURE SKATING: With Evgeni Plushenko and a captivating Julia Lipnitskaia winning the free skates, Russia took the team event without needing to worry about the concluding ice dance. President Vladimir Putin was among those in a crowd relishing this victory as the Russians drew away from the U.S. and Canada. Plushenko's body has been battered by 12 operations and he had to convince his federation he merited a spot in Sochi. "All the fans are cheering so hard that you literally cannot do badly because they do everything with you," Plushenko said. "You get goose bumps."
SNOWBOARDING: The U.S. now has a double gold hit in slopestyle, with Anderson doing her part a day after Sage Kotsenburg. "Even though it's just another competition, the stage and the outreach that this event connects to is out of control," Anderson said. Finland's Enni Rukajarvi won the silver. The bronze went to Jenny Jones, a 33-year-old former maid at a ski resort who gave Britain its first medal in any snow sport.
SPEEDSKATING: Another royal visit, more Dutch gold. Wust gave the Netherlands its second victory by winning the 3,000. Skating before her king and queen, Wust won in 4 minutes, 0.34 seconds. Defending champ Martina Sablikova of the Czech Republic took the silver while Olga Graf won bronze for Russia's first medal of the games. Claudia Pechstein, 41 and a six-time Olympian, was fourth. Wust, her nails red, white and blue like the Dutch flag, held up three fingers, signifying her third Olympic gold medal.
CROSS-COUNTRY: Switzerland's Dario Cologna had ankle surgery in November, but that now seems ancient. He won the 30-kilometer skiathlon, pulling away at the top of the last uphill section. The three-time overall World Cup winner claimed his second Olympic gold medal. He was timed in 1 hour, 8 minutes, 15.4 seconds. Defending champion Marcus Hellner of Sweden took silver, with the bronze to Norway's Martin Johnsrud Sundby.
BIATHLON: Slovakia's Anastasiya Kuzmina matched her gold from Vancouver in the women's 7.5-kilometer sprint. Kuzmina shot flawlessly and finished in 21 minutes, 6.8 seconds. The silver medal went to Russia's Olga Vilukhina and the bronze to Ukraine's Vita Semerenko. Kuzmina's brother is Russian biathlete Anton Shipulin, who was fourth Saturday.
LUGE: Felix Loch, still only 24, did it again. The German luger won his second straight Olympic gold medal, leaving the rest of the field in his icy wake. Loch completed four runs down the Sanki Sliding Center track in 3 minutes, 27.562 seconds — 0.476 seconds ahead of Russia's Albert Demchenko, who won the silver in his seventh Olympics. Italy's Armin Zoeggeler won the bronze, giving him a record six medals in six games.
SKI JUMPING: In control from the start, Kamil Stoch of Poland won the Olympic gold in the men's normal hill individual ski jump. Stoch had the best jump in each round, putting first ahead of the silver medalist Peter Prevc of Slovenia and bronze medalist Anders Bardal of Norway. Thomas Morgenstern of Austria, returning from serious injuries from a fall during training a month ago, was 14th. Simon Amman of Switzerland, the defending champion from Vancouver who was seeking a record fifth Olympic gold medal, finished 17th.

Nicole Kidman Bares Bikini
At least the bottom half!
It was girl-bonding time for Nicole Kidman as spent Friday afternoon yachting and swimming with some friends while vacationing in St. Barth in the French West Indies.
Noticeably missing was hubby Keith Urban, who gave a very spontaneous show last night to members of Keith's official fan club, Monkeyville, at Nashville nightspot "City Hall."
Nicole's new movie role involves a load of bull. She recently told UK's The Daily Mail that she learned how to round up cattle and castrate bulls in preparation for her latest movie role in Baz Luhrmann's World War II epic, Australia.
In the film, Nicole plays an English aristocrat who travels to Australia after inheriting a cattle station.
Says Nicole, 39, of her newly acquired skills, "I don't know if I'll have to do that, but it's best to be prepared. In seven weeks, I'll be riding a horse and chasing young bulls."
Nicole's new film His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass opens Dec. 7 and co-stars Casino Royale's Daniel Craig and Eva Green.
UPDATE :: Keith Urban was, in fact, spotted cuddling at St. Barth with Nicole on Saturday. The pair most definitely seem to be staying strong.

South Africa' ruling African National Congress Party (ANC) has dismissed as a joke a new poll which suggests the ruling party is running neck and neck with the opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) in urban areas. The latest poll conducted by an independent newspaper ahead of next year's general elections implies that growing discontentment after the forced resignation of President Thabo Mbeki is hurting the ANC among urban South Africans. But the ruling ANC rejected the poll as laughable. Some political observers, however, believe that rifts within the rank and file of the ANC after the Polokwane conference could threaten the cohesion of the party ahead of next year's elections.
Rok Ajulu is a political science professor in South Africa. He tells reporter Peter Clottey from the capital, Pretoria that the new poll is questionable.
"My opinion about that poll is that that cannot be possibly true. There have been similar polls in the run up to the general election, which predicted that the ANC would face stiff challenge from the opposition Democratic Alliance. But the DA didn't perform well and it came to nothing with the ANC getting nearly two thirds percent. But beyond that I think the question that is probably more pressing is how these polls, which are clearly inaccurate and based mainly on perception are conducted," Ajulu said.
He dismissed the latest poll as not credible.
"It is unbelievable; it is not possible by any consideration that the ANC and the DA can be running neck to neck in urban areas in South Africa, it is actually laughable. So, it sounds like a very bad joke. It is not possible because the DA is a small party of about 10% of mainly white South Africans and ANC is a party of 69%. It is not possible by any consideration that all of a sudden a party of 69% is running neck and neck in a predominantly African population electorate in the urban areas," he pointed out.
Ajulu said although the controversy surrounding Mbeki's resignation might have dented the internal political dynamics of the ANC, it would be largely extrapolated to think that the opposition Democratic Alliance is challenging the ruling party in the latest poll.
"Let me put it this way and very clearly. However, much the ANC has been dented by the events of the last two or three weeks, there is no possibility that the ANC would be running neck and neck with the DA. The DA is a small white minority party predominantly based on the white electorates. This is either a badly conducted sample of polls or based on a very narrow sample," Ajulu said.
He said there is enough time for the deep seated rift within the rank a file of the ruling ANC to heal ahead of the election in April next year.
"The ANC has got six to seven months for the next elections and that is why in the process of making a decision over Mbeki, the ANC was reluctant to call for a quick election. Lets assume that they've got six to seven months to heal and repair the rifts within the party, consolidate and prepare for the election. The only other possibility if as it is said there is a split as in the ANC a group of Mbeki supporters go in to form a new party, that could change the situation, but even then it's too late for a new party to garner support," he noted.
Meanwhile, some political analysts say the survey of 1,500 city dwellers -- disproportionately white and middle class -- by the Sunday Times newspaper does not represent the broader public opinion. But the paper said the poll showed rising discontent with the ANC after the ousting of Thabo Mbeki as president.
The ANC has dominated South African politics since the end of apartheid but has been damaged by bitter rivalry between Mbeki and party leader Jacob Zuma, the presumed frontrunner to win next year's presidential election.

Preloading of Assets
Load Models, Textures, Video, SoundEffects in the background (Separate Thread) before the complete level is setup. The engine reads part of the level file and pulls out all the required assets for the upcoming level and load them before the game initiates a level transition.
Undo/Redo system
I Finally took the time to integrate this into the editor. For now it works primarily on SceneEntities (anything part of the level) and can undo translation/rotation/scale.
I Finally took the time to integrate this into the editor. For now it works primarily on SceneEntities (anything part of the level) and can undo translation/rotation/scale.
System messages
The system will "ping" important messages and warnings to the top-left corner of the screen, warning you of possible errors. (See above)
Game Properties Window
Allows you to set Engine properties as well as user-defined game properties, very useful when debugging.
3D Text Buttons
Selectable by mouse, useful for either ingame activators or 3D menus. Text is baked into a texture at runtime and stored on disk.
Improved Object placement
VisualScript & AnimationEditor improvements
It's now possible to add objects using the Quick-menu (right-click popup) objects will be placed on the position the mouse is pointing in 3D.
Maya style navigation/orbit camera
Holding down "L"-key will orbit the currently selected object, scroll-wheel will zoom in/out.
VisualScript & AnimationEditor improvements
Added a lot of new Node-types and added the ability to directly add an animation to a new script.
Material editing inside VisualScript
All (Sunburn) material effects are stored and can be accessed using Script Nodes. Useful to dynamically set textures and other shader properties etc.
File browsing inside VisualScript
File browsing inside VisualScript
to easily attach files (Textures, Models, Levels etc.) to a Script Node.
I consider these the most significant changes/additions to the engine. Other things will show up in the next video.
Soon a new project will launch, lasting 4 months in total (instead of the previous 8 weeks we were given when building OverNight & Needle Juice) It's targeted towards XBLIG (Xbox Live Indie) and should be the first game to be fully developed (previous projects were prototypes, not full games) and released on that channel. I'm looking forward to get started, and will of course update on the progression of the game...

Things have been a bit quiet here over the last week or so, but as of this afternoon, things are looking up. I sat a church history exam this morning, and any available time has been taken up either by study or by doing all those 'necessary' things that suddenly become essential when you have something like an exam to study for! Needless to say, this week's meal plan has only just been done.
Before I get onto that, a quick update on last week. No extra visits to the supermarket required! Yippee! Cathy wisely suggested keeping a running shopping list on the fridge, which we already do, but often things aren't added until they're all gone, which is often a bit late! Something else to work on...
A couple of recommendations from last week: Firstly, if you can get hold of the first MasterChef magazine, the Chicken & Peanut Noodle Stir-fry is simply magnificent. So much so that I nearly cooked it again the next night! Even my 18 month old thought it was great. The recipe also has possible modifications if you want to make a vegetarian version involving tofu. I think I'll try that option sometime, too!
Secondly, T, who is a bit addicted to american style ribs, thought that Gary's Ribs (which T cooked, very well) were the best he's ever had. Which says a lot. So if you're even vaguely inclined, give them a go! Just one note: we used about 1/4 of the chilli powder the recipe called for, used regular rather than hot mustard powder in the sauce AND left out the jalapeno, and it was still bordering on a little too spicy for my very spice tolerant toddler (and me if I'm being honest), but, Oh. My. Goodness. They were REALLY good.
So what's the plan this week?
Monday: Roasted eggplant pasta (my basic tomato sauce with roasted eggplant added)
Tuesday: Chinese Chicken Wings (based on a Charmaine Solomon recipe)
Wednesday: Minestrone (my version)
Thursday: Soft Pork Tacos (MasterChef mag, p. 104)
Friday: Vege Frittata (my recipe with mods)
Saturday: Meatloaf (The Thrifty Kitchen, p. 129)
Sunday: Chicken Pilau (delicious June 10, p. 114)
What are you eating this week?

Hello readers!
As you probably already know Little Man arrived in early January and I am SO SO SO glad I had blog posts scheduled for the whole month ahead of time! {Read how to scheduled blog posts on Blogger here.} Not only was it a good thing that those posts were scheduled ahead of time, but having them ready to go so early I had hoped I'd be able to work on posts about my wedding to share with you this month. However, that did not happen!
I was not at all prepared for how much work and time it would take being a new mom. I didn't realize I'd have to get up every 2 or 3 hours during the night to feed the Little Man, change his diaper (occasionally give him a bath when he peed on himself during the diaper change...), and get him back to bed. That process takes a lot longer than I thought it would! Due to the tiredness of being a new mom and recovering from giving birth I haven't written a single post the whole month of January! This is an odd thing for me since I usually write two or three a week to schedule when I get online. I think a big part of my not writing posts is due to the fact that my laptop crashed just before Little Man was born. I have yet to get it fixed, but am desperately missing it!
With the laptop being gone I have attempted using my hubby's very old laptop, but since it doesn't have Microsoft Word for writing posts or Picasa for editing photos I really can't use it for much of anything except sorting new photos into files of posts I intend to write in the future.
I had planned to share with you this month things about my wedding which I haven't written about yet. I still plan to share a few posts, but doubt very seriously I'll get to share all 15 of the posts I planned to write originally. Either way, it will be fun to show off the things I can.
I don't know how active BEBBlog will be throughout February because of the lack of a laptop at home, but I'll do my best. Thank you to all the readers who leave me lovely comments on posts! I read them all even though I don't usually respond to each of them!!!

I don't want to say I'm glad my vacations are over because I won't really mean it. But, in a way, I'm glad the vacations are over.
I went away for a couple of weeks. Got back home for a couple of days and then went away again. It was exhausting.
And you know what all that left me with?
An apartment full of dirty laundry, an empty bank account, and cravings for naughty foods. ;)
But it was fun. FUN. FUN!!!! I got to see my family, have my mom cook for me, get oohed and ahhed over for finally being engaged, meet my brand new twin nieces, and see one of my closest friends get married.
Good times indeed.
I know I've missed a couple of weeks of weigh-ins, but I honestly have no idea how many because I didn't weigh myself at all while I was gone. So I'm just going to jump right in and get the ball rolling again.
And now to get everyone up to speed ...
Let's see. My Weight Watchers subscription came to an end a couple of weeks ago so I'm counting calories which is kind of the same thing (but cheaper!). I'm still running three times a week (up to 5 miles!) and I have officially started my countdown to my Wedding Plan.
Yes, a wedding plan.
As of Tuesday, September 25th, I have 44 weeks until August 1, 2014. And wouldn't you know, I'd like to lose 44 pounds before my wedding. Now, I don't have an exact date for the day just yet as we still aren't sure if we're having an actual wedding or eloping, but I do know no matter what, it'll be closer to September because we think that is when we want to take our Honeymoon. You know, priorities. So I have given myself an August 1 goal date just in case plans change (as they often do).
And with 44 weeks, that leaves me with a goal of losing a pound a week on average.
So what am I doing to reach this goal?
1. I'm eating in a deficit. I chose to use this calculator to find my BMR. Then with the help of Leigh Peele and her Fat Loss Troubleshoot book and Activity Calculator, I found my activity multiplier. End result: I supposedly need 1980 calories to maintain my current weight given my daily activity and exercise regime. So to start, I'm taking that number and eating 35% less which leaves me with 1287 calories to shoot for. (As time goes by and my weight drops, so will the level of the deficit. But we can talk about that when I get there)
In a perfect world, that would leave me in a deficit that would create a 1.4 pound loss per week. While I wish we lived in a perfect world, we do not. So I will be adjusting that number as necessary. In any case, I'm hoping it's enough for the 1 pound per week that I'm shooting for.
2. I'm exercising. When I calculated my calorie needs, I added exercising to the mix. I chose the 3-5 days per week of moderate intensity. So that means I actually have to DO that or I won't be eating the right amount of calories. DOH! So far, I'm running 3 days a week and I don't know about you, but for me running DEFINITELY counts as moderate intensity. So as long as I continue that I'm covered. And if for some reason my routine changes, I'll have to remember to rethink my calories.
3. I'm eating good, whole foods. Not only do you get more bang for your buck calorie wise, but your body gets the nourishment it needs. It's a win-win situation.
4. I'm going to try to not stress and enjoy the ride.
My weight loss has taken on a whole new meaning since I got engaged. I think this is the first time I've had a REAL end date. I mean, a wedding isn't something you can keep pushing back just because you haven't reached a weight loss goal. You see, I want to wear a certain kind of dress and look a certain kind of way on that day and to be honest, how I look right now doesn't really go along with that image. So when I say #4 is to try not to stress I really mean it. I already have anxiety about whether I'm going to succeed or not. It's not to a debilitating point or anything. I guess I have recently just realized how important it is to me to start my new life with my future husband the way I've always envisioned. Not just skinny, but healthy and crazy happy.
So for the next 44 weeks, I'm going to do my best to make sure that happens.

In preparation for my mother's arrival, I decided to book a little house by the beach and stock it with plenty of snacks and fresh fruit.
That night we had a mixture of Indian and Thai food for dinner on our front porch. For dessert we had dragonfruit - which is the coolest looking fruit I have ever seen - hot pink on the outside with bright green detailing and white with black spots on the inside.
As I was walking along Chewang beach before my mother arrived I noticed a sign for windsurfing lessons. I have always wanted to pick up windsurfing, so this looked like a great place to learn. I signed up for 2 1-hour lessons and by the end of the first hour I could pull the sail out of the water while standing on the board and sail straight until I was about to hit something and then fall over.
By the end of my second session, I could curve (to not hit swimmers and boats - which is useful) and turn.I summarized what I learned in my journal so that I could remember next time I rented a board to practice.
Afterward, my mother and I got hour long oil massages on the beach before heading off to dinner.
The next day mom and I took a ferry to Ko Tao, a much smaller and quieter island. We hiked for 40minutes on a steap dirt path to get to Sai Thong Resort - a little collection of bungalows that can only be reached by hiking or by wooden boat. Despite being drenched in sweat when we arrived after carrying my bag and my mom's suitcase to the resort, I immediately felt at home on this island and was so proud of my mom for being in such great shape.
Here is my mother sitting on a granite rock in the resort's secluded cove. The only sounds are the waves lapping against the rocks and the birds chirping in the palm trees.

Saving Gotham: A Billionaire Mayor, Activist Donors, and the Fight for Eight Million Lives
Tom Farley
310 pages, W.W. Norton, 2015
In 2002, Michael Bloomberg was elected mayor of New York City. Over the course of three terms, he waged a war on the city's carcinogenic and obesogenic environment. He hiked taxes on cigarettes, banned smoking in restaurants and bars, outlawed the use of trans fats in restaurants, forced food outlets to add calorie counts to menus, and almost (almost!) capped the size of soft-drink containers. He did so with the help of two health commissioners: Tom Frieden, who served until 2007, and Tom Farley, who stepped down in 2014.
Saving Gotham, written by Farley, is the story of how he and Frieden, along with the staff of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, achieved those public policy changes. It's the story of people who relied on data, persistence, and chutzpah to transform their traditionally staid department into an insurgent political machine. It's the story of activist doctors who worked for a mayor with a strong interest in health—a mayor who also happened to be the 13th-richest person in the world.
Public health is the business of keeping people healthy. For centuries, that business focused on delivering services related to communicable diseases. But today, at least in middle- and high-income countries, the business of keeping people healthy is primarily about their lifestyle choices: what they eat, whether they exercise, and whether they smoke. Frieden and Farley, therefore, chose to frame their work in a radically different way. It would be less about delivering services than about "preventing needless deaths" that result from New York's toxic environment.
Frieden and Farley judged the tobacco industry and some segments of the food industry to be purveyors of death, and they went after those industries with the righteous zeal of crusaders. When it comes to tobacco, that attitude seems to have merit. But the verdict on food is more complicated. Articles in respected medical journals, for instance, question whether high-salt diets are bad or posit that low-salt diets may be equally bad. Despite such nuances, Farley discusses such issues in a tone that says, "Trust us, we know best." Farley seems trustworthy enough—but the underlying paternalism of his approach troubles me. The medical profession, after all, has a long history of abusing the trust of patients and communities.
In launching their ambitious campaigns, Frieden and Farley benefited from a peculiarity in how New York City manages public health. In the 19th century, the city established a Board of Health that enjoys considerable insulation from political pressure. The board maintains a health code, and the ability of the city health department to add regulations to that code is its most important tool. Although I applaud Frieden and Farley's use of the code, I worry about the influence of a body that operates beyond the reach of democratic accountability. I also wonder how health departments that lack this organizational peculiarity can benefit from the lessons of this book.
There's a touch of hubris in Saving Gotham that's hard to tolerate at times. Farley clearly believes that other public health departments should follow the lead of his former department, but he gives scant attention to public health authorities whose lead New York City has followed. In 1993, Finland required food manufacturers to post high-salt warning labels. In 2001, Iceland passed a law that requires stores to keep cigarette packs out of view. In 2003, Denmark enacted a ban on trans fats. Although Farley mentions these precedents, he doesn't offer enough detail to show whether he and his colleagues adopted, modified, or rejected the approaches of these other authorities. In any case, the achievements that Frieden and Farley oversaw are not unique to New York City.
Farley tells the story in two parts. The first part describes the period from 2002 to 2007 and relies on interviews with the main players, including Frieden. The second part, which covers his own tenure as health commissioner, has a more personal feel. At times the story is difficult to follow, because Farley jumps back and forth in time and between issues: smoking, trans fats, calorie-count labels. (A timeline of pivotal moments in the development of each issue would have been helpful.)
Along with recounting the history of his and Frieden's work, Farley makes three provocative assertions. He unequivocally states that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is under the thumb of food corporations—a serious charge, given that 80 percent of the salt that Americans consume reaches them through processed foods, which the FDA supposedly regulates. He openly suggests that Sam Kass, the personal chef to First Lady Michelle Obama and a senior policy advisor for nutrition in the White House, is under the influence of the food industry and is blocking the FDA's attempts to regulate salt. And he accuses Michael Alderman, a doctor who opposes low-salt diets and a former advisor to the Salt Institute (a pro-salt lobby group), of misrepresenting the scientific case for limiting people's salt intake. It's all brave stuff.
Ultimately, though, Saving Gotham is about Michael Bloomberg. He appears in the book perhaps a dozen times, but his role as mayor, his desire for a legacy in health, and, quite frankly, his wealth empowered Frieden, Farley, and their teams to embrace a bold political strategy. It's yet to be seen whether cities that don't have a Bloomberg-like figure can replicate this approach. Which is all the more reason to place this story in the context of achievements elsewhere in the world.

A new scientific revolution is quietly underway. Laboratories around the world have proven that many kinds of paranormal phenomena are real. They represent a new kind of force, one that is able to travel forward and backward in time, a force that does not weaken with distance. It is a force unlike anything conventional science has ever seen.
This energy has been known and used for thousands of years in some ancient cultures. It is called CHI in China (also spelled Qi but pronounced "chee"), it is called PRANA among the Hindu Yogis...It is called MANA by the Polynesians, ORENDO by the Iroquois, WAKEN by the Sioux (Lakota), and BARAKA by North Africans. In the West it is often called SUBTLE ENERGY. It is the energy which enables adepts, Yogis and Shamen to achieve the miraculous feats they do. It enables QiGong masters from China to project their energy over thousands of miles to heal injured cells and to cure cancer in laboratory experiments. This energy changes the laws of physics and is the explanation for many strange phenomena which we in the West call "paranormal."
This energy and the scientific laws behind it are the focus of two books written by Dr. Swanson. The first is The Synchronized Universe, New Science of the Paranormal. It summarizes the best evidence for many kinds of paranormal phenomena. In many cases these strange forces have been demonstrated under rigorous scientific statistics, with odds of millions or even billions to one against chance. This evidence is presented in a "user friendly" way, with a minimum of jargon, and with over 140 photographs, figures and sketches.
The second book, Volume II, is Life Force, The Scientific Basis: Breakthrough Physics of Energy Medicine, Healing, Chi and Quantum Consciousness. It focuses on the energy behind these strange phenomena. They occur when this energy is built up in the body, often by special meditation and breathing techniques. It is used by healers and shamen around the world. In recent Laboratory tests it has been shown to alter the physics of every other known force, leading to measurable effects which have made it possible to understand this mysterious force scientifically. Russian scientists have developed a rigorous theory for this force, calling it TORSION. Patents, Equations and Devices have been developed using this new science.
This is leading to a breakthrough in our understanding of energy healing as well as physics of consciousness. This is a genuine and far reaching scientific revolution. In these two books, Dr. lays out the extensive evidence, including thousands of references, hundreds of graphs, and the stories behind them which explain how this force works.
The author, Dr. Claude Swanson, is an MIT and Princeton educated physicist. Dr. Claude Swanson, has put together the "best evidence" showing that our present scientific paradigm is broken. He describes scientifically controlled remote viewing and ESP experiments, demonstrations of long-range healing, psychokinesis (mind over matter), scientifically controlled experiments in levitation, teleportation and out of body phenomena (OBE). In addition he discusses research in energy healing, showing how results are achieved over great distances, and can even project forward and backward in time. He describes experiments in which this energy alters radioactive decay, bends laser beams, and alters material properties. It even changes mass, weight and density of materials, effects which are supposed to be "impossible" according to Western science.
These are just a few of the areas where new research is defying the old beliefs of conventional science. It points the way to a new, expanded science which, instead of denying the role of consciousness and spirit, begins to integrate these forces into a larger, more highly evolved and integrated world view. The truly "unified field theory" must explain and understand both science and consciousness. In doing so, it begins to heal the ancient rift between science and spirituality. And in the last chapter of the book, he proposes some ways to modify and expand present science to begin to achieve these goals.
Some of the best proven paranormal phenomena are those of ESP, remote viewing, psychokinesis, and some group consciousness experiments. There are also rigorous experiments showing that energy healing has real benefit, although as with all the paranormal forces, our science does not understand the nature of the force. Evidence is also described for astral or out of body travel, the near death experience, levitation and teleportation. Certain gifted individuals have been able to master these forces and produce them at will. They are known as "adepts" and are also discussed in the book. In modern times a tradition still exists of the yogi, India's "spiritual superman," who evokes some of these powers. The tradition and methods of training and development of these abilities is also described.
The last chapter of Volume I introduces a new model of physics which may begin to explain some of these strange and mysterious phenomena. In Volume II this description is expanded to explain the nature of SUBTLE ENERGY (CHI, TORSION) and how it causes such a wide range of strange effects.
Present day physics has no hope of explaining the paranormal or long range energy healing. This is why contemporary science often denies or ridicules these forces. We propose that a deeper theory is needed, one which goes beneath the quantum realm to a more fundamental picture of the universe. This leads to the idea that every particle in the universe is connected to every other particle, that nanosecond to nanosecond they interact and are coupled across the vast distances of space.
This leads to the central idea that we are living in a "synchronized universe," one layer of which we see and interact with and are synchronized with. This means every particle, every atom that we see as "real" is synchronized with the other atoms and particles in what we call the "real" universe. Other universes, with a different synchronization, can coexist with our own and yet they can pass right through each other. The model explains in a very natural way the strange time and space effects of psychic phenomena. It explains how objects pass through walls in teleportation and astral travel. It begins to offer a way to understand how the soul, the center of human consciousness, can exist in a permanent form, surviving human death. It offers a useful beginning to a deeper understanding of the universe and of ourselves.

So...we have come into a new issue at the Ellis household! Easton is a litte destroyer! Parker and Easton, most of the time, play really well together, but lately Parker has had to spend the majority of his playtime, defending his things instead of actually playing with them! I try to explain that I cannot constantly tell Easton, no, and that he is just going to have to improvise and play around the little destroyer! Poor little Park Park can't build a block tower without it being knocked over. He can't line up his cars without them being pushed out of line, and he definitely can't think about drawing without Easton screaming for his markers. So...today, Parker's fun activity was to paint...in his art room...while Easton took a nap...in PEACE!
This room use to belong to Chloe, but now that she is staying with Leigh Ann, we have turned it into an art room for little Parker. That way, he can just go in there and draw, play with his play-doh, or work on his letters and the mess stays contained. Plus...as an added bonus, Easton cannot open doors yet. Don't get me wrong, I am excited for Easton to have the chance to be creative, but all he does so far is eat the crayons!
We display all of his work on the wall of the room.
Mamma's painting!
Parker's spider painting!
Easton's fun activity was to have music class. I turn on a "Music and Me" cd and let the kids run around playing their instruments. Today was about listening to the difference between the slow and fast rhythms. If it was slow, we danced slow. If it was fast, we danced fast! The kids loved it. We also pretended that we were in a marching band. Parker mostly played the drums, and Easton played a little bit of everything!
Here is Parker dancing fast!
Someone got tired and needed a juice break!

I get that gnomes won't need to be concerned with any heavier armor, so their appearance may not change much throughout their character lives, but a very cool part about playing a tank (in my opinioin) is getting that great piece of armor and everyone seeing it knowing that you went through some trials to obtain it.
My concern/question is about how I have not seen an Archai in armor (although shaman can wear medium armor), and I am wondering if they will be like the monk in EQ1 where no matter what armor you put on, it looked like a strap across your chest or a different color robe(?). (Which would lead me to believe that the gnomes may simply have different colored robe/cloak/facemasks...)
Has anyone seen/heard anything to say otherwise?
I know that weapon/armor appearance is to come in future phases of development, but the Archai looks like the character creation animation (or have the devs been playing without gear at all?)
Goatfist said:
Still no armor in the most recent gameplay videos from this month. I love their look and am really torn about armor actually showing.
Currently humans are the only race whose real armor actually appears on their body. But more visible armor changes are coming soon. In case you missed it, they recently released a workflow vid showing how they are creating the new armor models: https://www.pantheonmmo.com/content/forums/topic/8199/insiders-look-at-character-models
It's very important in Pantheon that you be able to tell what someone is wearing just by looking at them, so I have to think armor will appear on Archai. But judging by the care they are putting in the armor models for other races, I'm sure they'll make sure the Archai still look awesome.

When it comes to access on college and university campuses, striking a balance has always posed a challenge. On the one hand is the need to limit access to those authorized to have it, whether that means students who have paid for dining services or faculty accessing labs or other facilities.
Can you believe it? I've been writing this column about digital marketing in higher education for seven years.
When we entered college, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 was already in place—guaranteeing access to K12 education regardless of race, ethnicity, or ability.
With budgets still tight and a workforce still lean, some higher ed institutions are applying an old approach that allows them to do more with less.
Feedback from private student loan borrowers reveals they hold a host of common misconceptions about their loans.
As distance learning programs are developed and then refined, there are many options for national, regional, and statewide distance education consortia that the institutions can, and often do, join.

When the PT Kizone factory in Indonesia went out of business in January 2011, 2,800 people lost their jobs. Most of the factory's international clients fulfilled obligations to pay into a $3.4 million severance pool for the workers. One company that did not is sports apparel maker Adidas.

J.J. Abrams admits that he is addicted to lens flares
For all of you worried that J.J. Abrams was going to overload STAR WARS: EPISODE VII with his trademark lens flares, you can rest a little easier today. Abrams now realizes that he has a problem and is doing what he can to fix it. The director of flare-heavy flicks such as STAR TREK and SUPER 8 acknowledged to Crave Online that he is not ignorant to those who mock his camera technique. Here is what he told them when asked:
"I know I get a lot of grief for that. But I'll tell you, there are times when I'm working on a shot, I think, 'Oh this would be really cool⦠with a lens flare.' But I know it's too much, and I apologize. I'm so aware of it now. I was showing my wife an early cut of Star Trek Into Darkness and there was this one scene where she was literally like, 'I just can't see what's going on. I don't understand what that is.' I was like, 'Yeah, I went too nuts on this.'
This is how stupid it was. I actually had to use ILM [Industrial Light & Magic] to remove lens flare in a couple of shots, which is, I know, moronic. But I think admitting you're an addict is the first step towards recovery."
Wait, he actually had to remove flares from STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS? Wow, that is a lot of flare. While I don't think STAR WARS: EPISODE VII will be flare free, at least now we know it won't be as overindulgent as in his prior films. Now, if only J.J. Abrams could go back and have ILM fix his other movies we would be all set.
STAR WARS: EPISODE VII opens in 2015.
