WSOH - We have the winners! :)
Last Friday (7/22), Mozilla was hosting its first WSOH (World Series of Hack) -- an all-night hacking session designed for students currently interning in the Valley. The idea was to have a broad representation of companies on-site (the event was held at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA), from top tech giants all the way to small startups. We had no less than 11 organizations joining us (10gen/MongoDB, Box,
Dropbox, Flotype (now.js), Github, Google, Meebo, Ning, Scribd, and Yahoo!). Oh, and 5 HOUR ENERGY supplied the liquid fuel for our brains!
Approximately 200 students started 50 new projects as we began WSOH. Teams of up to 4 students were allowed for each project and all the project code is Open Sourced and available on Github. After twelve hours of hacking and caffeination, no less than 32 projects were lined up to compete for first place on the podium.
Our panel of judges, composed of Ben Keighran (Chomp Inc, CEO & Co-Founder), Brad Kellett (Chomp Inc, Lead Search Engineer), Pascal Finette (Director of Mozilla's Web FWD Accelerator Program), Chris Heilmann (Mozilla, Principal Developer Evangelist), and Todd Simpson (Mozilla, Chief of Innovation), had the difficult but enviable task of picking up the top three projects.
There were four main judging criteria:
1. Technology (does the demo showcase the power of open Web technologies?)
2. Originality (how innovative and unique is the demo?)
3. Aesthetics (how good is the visual design and interaction experience?)
4. Practicality (how useful is this demo in enhancing the Web today?).
The maximum of points allocated to a project was 40 (10 points each).
Today, I'm happy to announce the winning projects:
- First Place: FuzzyPeach -- A Firefox addon that provides users with
analytics about their productivity on the web. Includes functionality to
block/limit access to unproductive websites.
To be uploaded soon on AMO (https://addons.mozilla.org/)
- Second Place: Munchy Lunchy -- A super-easy way to find out where to
go to lunch, whether alone or in a group. Powered by Django, Tornado,
BrowserID, and magic.
Link: http://munchylunchy.com/
- Third Place: Pigeon Carrier -- An integrated Twitter attachment system
using Dropbox, Scribd, and new HTML 5 APIs
Link: http://pigeoncarrier.com/
The three winning teams will be at Mozilla HQ on Friday (8/5) to give a live demo of their projects at 3pm PDT. Please join us on Air Mozilla (http://air.mozilla.org/) and IRC (irc.mozilla.org (#wsoh)) on August 5th, but for now, let's give a big round of applause to our winners and all the participants!!! Well done, guys!
And given how successful this event was, you can definitely count on another WSOH next summer. We may even hold a few local WSOH around the world... Ping me (firstname.lastname@example.com) if you're a student interested in hosting a local World Series of Hack at your university. I'd love to chat with you :)
Until then, happy hacking...
A special thanks to all the Mozillians behind this event, as well as all the company reps who took the time to come hang out with us last Friday!!!

2010 Regional Youth Aviation Art Competition Winners
Last week, the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, World Trade Center San Diego, and the Museum presented awards to the 2010 Regional Youth Aviation Art Competition's nine winners. This year's theme, Aviation in the Global Marketplace, challenged young artists to imagine how they would use their own airplane to connect people, places, and things from around the world. How would they use their airplanes to change the world? Each one of the winning entries was chosen for its creative expression of this year's theme as it relates to aviation.
In addition to the prizes each winner received, the artwork will be exhibited on San Diego International Airport's Youth Art Wall, located in Terminal 2 East pre-security, from March 2010 through June 2010.
For information on the Museum's competitions, click here.
Below are the winning artworks:
Category I (Grades K-4)
Category II (Grade 5-8)
Category III (Grades 9-12)

2018 LBL 200 Dual Sport Ride
virginia thomas memorial ride
September 8-9, 2018
Click the link below to learn how to sign-up for the 2018 LBL 200!
Virginia was the wife of Jesse Thomas, founder of the LBL 200. For 30 years she worked alongside Jesse handling all the paperwork, long before the days of the computer. She died on October 11, 2017 and is buried in the Land Between the Lakes Matheny Cemetery. All mowing and care of the cemetery is the responsibility of the families of those who are buried there.
If you would like to make a small, one- time donation to the cemetery fund, it would be in her honor.

Welcome to our weekly round-up of all that's happening in London's food and drink scene.
Inside this week: Distilleries, pizzas and secret cocktails
Drinks and distilling
A new bar and distillery is due to open towards the end of this month in Bow Wharf, near Victoria Park. East London Liquor will be run by the Barworks group (responsible for Electricity Showrooms, Exmouth Arms and The Black Heart among others) and feature two copper stills for distilling. They're planning to make several gins, a vodka and a whisky on site, as well as running distillery tours and 'make your own' sessions. Could this be a sign of our predicted trend for small-batch whisky distilleries in London coming good?
Quick dough
Three branches of a new pizza takeaway will launch in the City this year after having raised £440,000 on Crowdcube in just a couple of weeks. Pizza Rossa's USP is to offer high quality pizzas "akin to the quality of food found in an Italian deli, and aligned with foodie pizzas" that will take just 90 seconds from ordering to being served, something which will be of interest to time-poor lunching workers, and which is currently lacking in the City. A pop-up branch is due to open in May.
Essex eating
Just outside the M25 but on the Crossrail route, Brentwood's restaurant scene looks to be hotting up. Albert Roux has applied to open up in a former Post Office site on the High Street, according to the local press. The man is something of a culinary legend, gaining London's first ever Michelin star when he launched Le Gavroche in Mayfair back in 1967. He also runs Roux at The Landau in The Langham hotel near Regent Street and Roux at Parliament Square, as well as a handful of restaurants in Scotland.
Starbucks in W5
The controversial coffee giant has announced plans to move its European headquarters to London, supposedly with a view to 'getting closer to their biggest export market'. It should also mean an increase in the amount of tax they pay in the country. They will leave the Netherlands for Chiswick later this year.
Grind in W1
In more boutique coffee news, Old Street's popular caffeine bolt-hole Shoreditch Grind will launch a second site in Beak Street next month, taking the not unpredictable name of Soho Grind. Slightly less predictable is a built-in secret bar that will be revealed by a sliding wall come evening time, serving cocktails including Grind Espresso Martinis and Hot Flat White Russians.
More openings
Asian noodle dish joint Noodle House opens today on Shaftesbury Avenue, whisky bar Rusty Nail will open in Mayfair this summer from the same team as nearby Whisky Mist, while a Greek restaurant called Opso and a dubiously-named Lebanese 'tapas' restaurant and shisha bar Lazeez both open in Marylebone next month. At the end of May, the founder of Foxtons estate agents will open Pavilion on Kensington High Street, complete with a restaurant, deli, Champagne bar and florist's shop. Changes are also to be seen at Brixton's Wishbone restaurant, which has been bought by MeatLiquor.
And as for those kebabs
A slightly worrying Food Standards Agency report has found that nearly a third of lamb takeaways it checked contained a different meat, with 8 in 30 tests carried out on lamb takeaways in London containing other meats. The good news? No horse has been found. And by the sounds of it, we don't have it half as bad as Birmingham.
Talk To Us
We still want your help to keep these weekly food and drink news round-ups as relevant, up-to-date, and interesting as possible. Got any top tips, local gems or foodie news? Tried one of the new restaurants we mentioned? Leave a comment below or hit us up at firstname.lastname@example.com. 'Til next week…

[AWAKE!] What's that noise? Damn!
Someone is laying on their car horn. No. Not polite taps to let someone know they need something. No. Not a couple blasts that express concern. No. Not a few honks followed by extended silence. No. Not any of these somewhat polite approaches to get other people to do things they might not usually want to do.
Someone is righteously angry, pissed off, and want to share their State of Being with the early morning voisins of Passy.
Thinking that "Je dois lui donner le bras d'honneur!" I swung my legs out of bed, padded over to the window and cracked the curtain to see what was the matter.
Huh. One quick look makes me think someone must be stuck behind the delivery truck that's parked nearly in the middle of the street. Oh well. They're fools, and now they have succeeded in awakening the dead residents of Passy Cemetery who live up the hill and around the corner too. Phfffttt! We get the point, already!!
Eying the time, I see it's huit heures du matin. Time to relever in any event. So I head back to bed.
There is a fancy restaurant down the street. They charge over 210Euros a plate for dinner. I can't imagine spending that kind of dosh on tiny morsels of the Gods Only Know What that came from Goddess Only Knows Where. Perhaps they were taking a delivery of caviar and fois gras shipped in from a far flung place like, well, France? Perhaps a free range calf or a well fed pig were ready to migrate from some high Alpine Pasture into someone's freezer? Or perhaps the restaurant needed to stock up on Cheap Plonk that sported Expensive Labels?
Another five minutes go by and my wife, Jude, has got to go take a look for herself.
"Oh my gosh! Chris!! Come take a look at this."
Jude continued to watch as eggs were thrown with Sandy Koufax velocity and accuracy at a formerly pristine BMW-era black on black Mini Cooper.
Egg shells shattered everywhere. Egg whites oozed down the windows. Egg yokes left long ugly yellow globs all over the roof.
The well-heeled occupant of the Mini had silenced the horn. The delivery camione had moved. Yet the black on black, now yellow eggish colored Mini remained curb-side.
I laughed. We now had another rather interesting thing to watch unfold from the relative safety of our own balcony. It's hard to hurl eggs into windows six etages up. Even with Sandy Koufax holding the egg carton. Besides, we weren't the ones creating a racket.
Five other balcony positions were likewise occupied with their relatively safe from flying eggs residents. Everyone watched as the scene had momentum to unfold.
As Jude would say, "It's the curiosities in life that make it so interesting."
What's all this then? Someone is gesticulating wildly and throwing insults toward the black on black yellow eggish colored Mini. The well-heeled occupant of said voiture has a no doubt expensive Apple iPhone out and appears to be either playing Angry Birds or is dialing a somewhat important number.
More people appear and are standing around discussing the matter in a Well Choreographed Gallic Manner.
A Pacific Northwest-like rain continues to gently dampen all and everything.
Not too many minutes later la police arrive.
Interviews are made. Gesticulations and hand waving renew. Strong French Words bounce angrily off the late 1800's era stone-faced apartment buildings.
Yet more words. Yet more listening by la police... and... suddenly the well-heeled Mini-driver gets in her black on black yellow eggish colored caisse and drives around la voiture de police and moves off around the corner. Contributors to the Sandy Koufax Speed and Accuracy Egg Hurling Story begin new stages in their early morning lives. La police regain entry to la voiture and proceed to leave the Scene of the Angry Birds Crime.
This was just too good!
I'm fully awake now. OK? Got it, everyone??
A rather proper Gallic Alarm Clock, me thinks.

Lava International is launching in India the Xolo X900, which is described as the "first Intel architecture-based smartphone."
Though there have been Intel-based smartphones in the past, the Lava Xolo X900 does still qualify as the first Intel-based Android smartphone, running Intel's first specifically designed mobile chipset.
Priced at Rs. 22,000, the new Lava Xolo X900 is powered by Intel's single-core 1.6GHz Atom Z2460 mobile processor (with Hyper-Threading), code-named Medfield. The device is scheduled to hit retail chains in early May – though it will be available exclusively in Croma outlets from April 23.
The Lava Xolo X900 runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS (upgradeable to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich) and features a 4.03 inch touchscreen display with 1024×600 pixels resolution (295 ppi), Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities, and micro-HDMI. Intel's Atom Z2460 SoC comes with PowerVR SGX540 GPU clocked at 400MHz.
The Lava device also sports an 8MP and a 1.3MP front facing camera. The built-in storage will be 16GB, with microSD card support up to 32GB. The handset will come with 1GB of RAM ( 32-bit Dual channel LPDDR2).
Intel claims that the smartphones powered by its Z2460 processor can give battery back up to eight hours on 3G voice calling, six hours of HD video decoding, or five hours of 3G browsing, and standby time of 14 hours. Intel's processor is said to be capable of clocking at a speed of 2GHz. The Z2460 processor is based on Intel's XMM 6260 HSPA+ radio with Hyper-Threading Technology.

text: Lawn Care Services on May 30, 2013 by TruGreen A healthy lawn is green, thick, and cool, and it invites you to take off your shoes and walk barefoot on it. It's where you teach your son how to throw a curveball or your daughter how to kick a soccer ball. A beautiful lawn shows you have pride in your home and community. If you neglect your lawn and don't have a solid lawn care service plan, weeds can outcompete the lush, soft grass. Disease or lawn damaging insects can cause your grass to become thin and create bare spots that spread. Don't take your lawn's health for granted. You'll miss out on the sense of pride that comes with having a lawn you love. You also won't reap the environmental benefits that a healthy, green lawn provides. Did you know: Grass cools surrounding areas. As much as 50% of heat striking a turf area is eliminated by a process called 'transpiration' in which plants cool themselves. So in essence, your grass acts like a miniature air conditioner. Turfgrass acts as a water filter and helps clean up our urban environment. A healthy lawn prevents water runoff and encourages growth of beneficial organisms, such as earthworms, soil microbes and useful insects. Lawns serve as air filters and collect dust and dirt, trapping 12 million tons annually in the U.S. Lawns pull in greenhouse gases as they grow and reduce carbon dioxide caused by burning fossil fuels. These are but a few of excellent reasons why, when things start to get out of control in your lawn, it's time to upgrade your lawn care maintenance. Unless you're a committed (and very knowledgeable) do-it-yourselfer, the best way to bring your lawn back to health is to seek the help of a professional lawn care services company. And not just any lawn care company either. Start with the industry leader, TruGreen®. The experts at TruGreen offer a scientific approach to lawn care service. Getting your lawn back into shape includes getting it the proper nutrition in the form of fertilizer—the right kinds, in the right amounts and at the right times. And, in many cases, it also requires technical lawn care services, such as weed, lawn damaging insect and disease control. Depending upon your lawn's condition, it may also greatly benefit from aeration and overseeding. Why entrust this to just any lawn care services company when you can count on TruGreen, the best lawn care service, which offers a range of science-based lawn plans designed to give your lawn the right help at the right time throughout the year? Your lawn is unique, and it has specific needs that must be met for it to thrive. That's why every TruGreen plan begins with a Healthy Lawn Analysis® performed by your TruGreen PhD-certified specialist. Your lawn specialist will evaluate your climate, soil condition, grass type and lawn usage to determine your lawn's specific needs. This analysis provides your TruGreen lawn expert the information needed to recommend services to restore your lawn back to its full health and beauty. When you make the decision to bring the unhealthy grass on your lawn back to vibrant health, you're on the right track to improving the appearance of your property, providing you and your family with a great place to relax and play, and making a positive impact on the environment. TruGreen backs its work with the Healthy Lawn Guarantee®, giving you the peace of mind that a specialist will return to your property as often as needed to make any necessary adjustments to ensure your satisfaction.

Popular Calderdale company babyballet is celebrating its 10th birthday in style – by winning two national awards.
The multi-award winning dance academy – which was started in a converted Halifax mill in 2005 – has won Dance Franchise of the Year and Dance Brand of the Year in the latest "Oscars" of the dance world.
Online Dance Teacher Hub was started last year to bring together and connect dance teachers across the UK. It quickly attracted thousands of followers and announced its first awards at Move It, the UK's biggest dance event, held in London in March.
There were 12 different categories and businesses and individuals had to send an email about their work and why they deserved to win. Judges then decided on a shortlist and it went to the public vote. Judges included top former ballet dancer, Darcey Bussell, a judge on hit TV show Strictly Come Dancing, and well known dancers, presenters and choreographers Laura Wilson, Matt Flint, Ryan Jenkins and Tom Shilcock.
Babyballet owner Claire O'Connor, said: "There has been a lot of blood, sweat and tears over the past 10 years but I wouldn't change it for anything. It has been a remarkable journey and we have achieved so much in a short time. I am over the moon we are celebrating our 10th birthday and have won these two prestigious awards."
Claire, 41, started the company with no capital investment and can now lay claim to it being the UK's leading pre-school dance concept. Not only has it won numerous awards and been featured on TV and in prestigious newspapers, but it is now a recognised children's brand and a leading player in the dance market.

|Summary, etc.:
You can't dance this dance unless it's in your blood. Claire McCall is praying it's not in hers. Claire McCall is used to fighting back against the odds. Hard work, aptitude, and sheer determination have helped her rise from adverse circumstances to an internship in one of the nation's most competitive surgical residencies. But talent and tenacity mean nothing in the face of the discovery that is about to rock her world. It's called the "Stoney Creek Curse" by folks in the small mountain town where Claire grew up. Behind the superstition lies a reality that could destroy her career. But getting to the truth is far from easy in a community with secrets to hide. As a web of relationships becomes increasingly tangled, two things become apparent. One is that more than one person doesn't want Claire to probe too deeply into the "Stoney Creek Curse." The other is that someone has reasons other than the curse for wanting Claire out of the picture permanently. Somewhere in the course of pursuing her career as a surgeon, Claire lost touch with the God who called her to it. Now she realizes how desperately she needs him. But can she reclaim a faith strong enough to see her through this deadly dance of circumstances?

Event planners in NYC cater to the needs of their clients. They include companies that address every aspect of the party to companies that offer advice about the design of the event, like the new comers, Lauren Conrad and her husband, William Tell. Lauren Conrad, the millennial Martha Stewart, has begun her reign over party planning for the 2000's. Capitalizing on her past successes, she has released her first book, Celebrate and launched her new company, The Little Market, an online retailer of handmade items created by artisans. Now Lauren and her husband have combined their efforts to plan parties characterized by their simplicity and propensity for everyone's enjoyment including the hostess.
The premise behind their thinking is everyone should be stress-free with no discomfort caused by trying too hard. Lauren and William's party planning philosophy is the exact opposite of Twenty Three Layers, an event planning company NYC. This full-service event planning company provides every detail for a flawless celebration with absolute attention to detail, while Lauren Conrad's advice to the host and hostess is not to get overwhelmed with worry about details.
To further contrast the two companies. Lauren and William's party planning has a more subtle approach usually with a smaller group while Twenty Three Layers will organize larger affairs for corporations and private individuals in great detail from venue to food, decor and entertainment. Twenty Three Layers promises event planning that is creative and trendy. The company leads the pack of event planners in New York City because of its determination to provide the best experience to its clients just as Lauren Conrad's more intimate and more relaxed company does.
Lauren Conrad is a celebrated trend setter who exhibits enormous creativity in the types of parties she plans. Twenty Three Layers is a company that deserves as many accolades for their successes, albeit more ostentatious and bold by design and intention. There's a genuine need for both styles as long as tastes continue to vary among the masses.

Oakland in Garrett County, Maryland — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Garrett Memorial Church
(St. Matthew's Episcopal Church)
Garrett Memorial Church first served as a "community church" for various Christian denominations although primarily Presbyterian and Episcopal congregations. In 1874, the Episcopal congregation built its own church and in 1903, the Garrett family gave title to the property to the Presbyterian Church of Oakland. After the Presbyterian congregation dwindled away, the Episcopal congregation returned once more and began holding services in the building in 1936. In 1962 the building was almost 100 years old and needed extensive repairs. The Presbyterian Church gave the Episcopal congregation
Sometimes it is called the "Church of the Presidents," which refers to the fact that four Presidents of the United States attended services in this building while visiting Garrett County. They were Presidents Ulysses Grant, James Garfield, Benjamin Harrison and Grover Cleveland.

Me, backing out of parking spot, nearly hitting a man on a bike who decided to whiz between cars: Nice! Stupid fucking guy on a bike.
Toddler: Fah-ker bike?
Me: No! No! Babies don't say that.
Toddler: Fucker bike?
Me: No, no! Those are not words for babies.
Toddler: Fucker bike? Fucker bike? Fucker bike!
Me: Awesome.
Toddler, singing in a sweet little voice all the way home: fucker bike....fucker bike....fucker bike

Warning Sign
Does anyone else think the Kaiser Chiefs should take heed of other people who have had similar careers and quit while they're ahead?
I think its really silly to start a novelty group, especially at this time. Take 'Gorillaz' for instance. They did a couple of singles and got forgotten. I know they have a new song out, but its too crap to save them. And a prime example, Goldie Lookin Chain. Whatever happened to them? A few people find their debut really good and funny, they do a second single much like the first, go on an NME Tour, play some shitty 'T4 Summer Fun Festival', and then just simply fade away.
I think exactly the same's gonna happen to the Kaiser Chiefs. Can anyone honestly see a successful second album from 'em?

Re: Warning SignUnfortunately i dont think the 'chiefs are a novelty band...
Re: Warning SignOf course they are. My mate bought their album the day it came out (much to his regret). I opened the box and all these stupid posters and games and stickers fell out. Surely no one takes them seriously. The bad thing is, they aren't even funny.
Re: Warning SignThats just packaging...
I mean radiohead produced an album that came as a map (hail to the thief), would you call radiohead a 'novelty' band?
Novelty bands need some kind of hook. To take your examples with GLC it's the chav thing and with gorillas its the cartoon thing. What do the kaiser chiefs have?
Re: Warning SignIts just everything.
The way they dress. (like 1920's deck chair collecters)
Their silly videos. (ricky wilsons stupid little nervous, uncomfortable look which he does in EVERY video, not to mention the fancy dress)
Even the songs. It seems like they're constantly trying to be funny. Most of their songs have some 'humourous' lyrics in and they aren't capable of anything new.
Re: Warning SignStill dont see how they're 'novelty'
Lots of bands have silly uniforms, silly videos and silly lyrics, doesnt mean that they're novelty though.
Still each to their own and all that...
Re: Warning SignThe reason they're novelty is because they're don't take themselves seriously. Its so obvious they're going to follow in the footsteps as success stories such as Electric 6 and the Darkness.
Re: Warning SignOh, and how are the Gorillaz a Novelty band...
ah, of course, cause they had cartoons for videos!
Re: Warning SignGorillaz are novelty because of all the emphasis put on how they were a 'cartoon band'. all that hassle with musicians perfoming behind screens projecting the cartoons.
If i remember rightly isnt the whole thing with the gorillaz that they are literally meant to be a band made up of cartoons (i hope you get what i mean, thats not very well explained)
Re: Warning SignHey Wrighty,
Are you a Novelty DiS user, jumping on a sad and overused accusation just to be part of a gang? ;-)
TKC are not for everyone, yes. I think they are a fun band, throwaway pop just like Art Brut (as Pat said further down). But to call them a novelty band is silly! It's almost like you are trying to get a rise out of fans, or prove some stupid thoery!
Re: Warning SignOh, fuck off. I'm not trying to start any arguments just putting my opinions forward and discussing them with others, which is what forums are all about, yes? If anyone's trying to get a 'rise' or putting forward a stupid 'thoery' its you.
Re: Warning SignErm Wrighty, why are you sending me insulting PM of a personal nature? Isn't that a trite childish?
I read your posts on a regular basis. As you know i post a lot on this site, so don't miss much. Most of your posts are very intelligent and impressive. Some of the points you raise are of a high quality. But every now and again you turn into a little Troll. You did so a few weeks ago (as a lot of people saw - i am not alone here) and you have done tonight with your silly PM remarks.
Do me a favour... go to bed!
Re: Warning SignMy PM is not silly. I meerly asked what your problem is, and if it whas because you made an arse of yourself trying to apologise to me.
But this confuses me. 'Troll'. I don't like to get involved with forum languages so I don't like to use it. But, looking at other people's posts, I thought a troll was someone like king bob, who just put the same post 30 times?
Why the hell am I having this discussion with this silly old man?
Re: Warning Signexactly!!
Run along now... your milk is getting cold!
Re: Warning SignBesides you little tit...
It takes a man to apologise if he does wrong. Something you MIGHT grow up to be one day!
Re: Warning SignFirstly, I don't think I'd apologise to anyone I didn't know because I insulted them on a forum. Secondly, when I'm 35, I don't think I'll be wasting my time on here talking to a 15 year old about apology.
Re: Warning SignI have serious serious Beef with you!
You are going to grow up to be a horrible little person. A truly horrible person. You say you would never apologise to a person on here if you insulted them. How awful, how truly awful. I really pity you, really i do.
Anyway, i never raised the apology, you did... I had actually forgotten all about it. It was so insignificant. Just like you.
Goodbye 'wee man'. I'm bored now, you bore me you little troll (and don't pretend you don't know what it means - i've seen you been called it plenty of times, and not by me)
Re: Warning SignI agree with what marco is saying, i think that they're throwaway pop, but i dont think that they can be labelled as novelty.
As i've already stated to be novelty means they need some sort of inventive hook. In fact i'd argue that they're not novelty precisely because they're not doing anything unique. After all novelty comes from the word novel meaning unique/new.
Oh and i should also point out for the record that i dont even like them...
Re: Warning SignHey Jake, you nearly got 1000 posts man... well done!
I think we all need to get lives ;-)
Re: Warning Sign^ Says it all.
Re: Warning SignBut the Gorillaz album will be as big as their last. I predict.
What do people suggest the Kaiser Chiefs do instead?
Re: Warning SignGLC were pure novelty and I never liked them. I sense Art Brut will fade away in a short time too. The Kaiser Chiefs have that Pig club night don't they? So maybe they should stick to that. they've still got some mileage but are largely a fun throwaway pop band.
Re: Warning SignYes it is.
It has De La Soul in it, thus great.
Re: Warning SignAgreed. And a superfunky bass line, bitches.

Miercoles de Ceniza -- Ash Wednesday
This is Ash Wednesday (Miercoles de Ceniza). It marks the beginning of Lent (Cuaresma). In Colombia, a primarily Catholic country, it is not uncommon to see thousands of people sporting a cross made of ash on their foreheads. It is placed there during a special service at the local Parrish.
This was something I had never seen before. Granted, I had known very few Catholics in my lifetime -- only my next door neighbors growing up -- however, they had never worn these outward manifestations of inward commitment. For me, during my first visit to Colombia, this was a unique cultural experience. I have since seen this in the US, but I will always associate it with Colombia if for no other reason than the number of people I saw wearing the mark of CENIZA. It was amazing.

In 2009, brothers Bryce and Dylan Gilmore purchased a Fleetwood Mallard trailer with a mission to turn it into an eatery serving only food with ingredients from local Austin farms. After a drive to Wisconsin to pick up the trailer and a hundred or so man-hours rehabbing it and outfitting it with a wood-burning grill, they named the trailer "Odd Duck" and opened that December. The trailer became instantly beloved by the city and afforded Bryce national recognition and acclaim as a chef while simultaneously helping put Austin's local food scene on the map. Bryce began buying whole hogs from a local farm and using it from snout to tail throughout the week, sourcing local eggs from a farmer, whom he still exclusively buys his eggs from today, and started frequenting the (at the time) small Saturday farmers market where local farmers still did not sell wholesale to restaurant owners and chefs. Much of that has changed today due in part of Odd Duck's mission, as well as Bryce's commitment to cook and serve innovative dishes using only locally sourced goods.
In 2011 the trailer closed as Bryce opened his first brick and mortar restaurant, Barley Swine, which continued to support local farms –this time on a much larger scale. Soon after the trailer's closing, and while Barley Swine began receiving its own acclaim, the gravel lot where the trailer stood, sold to develop an apartment community that would also include a freestanding restaurant — a space that Bryce would take over.
The Gilmores, along with partners Sam Hellman-Mass, Mark Buley and Jason James, opened Odd Duck in December 2013 as a full restaurant serving brunch, lunch and dinner on the exact lot the trailer once stood. Continuing the philosophy of supporting local farmers, making everything from scratch and working to capture the true craft of cooking in each bite, Odd Duck's menu is inspired by the Texas seasons using local ingredients that showcase the loyal relationships between the chefs and the farmers built throughout the years.

In the frigid winter months, it is very common for us humans to try to combat the cold air and its affects on our skin. You might have dry, cracking skin that itches. There are many products on the market to help with this, like lotion, but what if your dog has dry and itchy skin? Much like their human counterparts, it is common for dogs to have itchy skin in the winter. It is important to understand the causes of this issue, from more serious problems to simple things like allergies or dietary problems. If you are noticing your dog itchy much more than usual, there are some ways to help them with this issue.
True dry skin typically shows itself on the dog's back or neck. This could show itself as white flakes of dandruff on the fur. While this could just be dandruff, it could also be a symptom of something more serious, like an infection, bacteria, or even a disorder. Before determining a treatment plan with your dog's doctor, here are some potential causes of dry skin.
Allergies: Many dogs, like humans, have seasonal allergies or even food allergies. This can be caused by the environment around them and things like pollen, or it could be a sign of something more serious like Cushing's disease or parasites. See your veterinarian to check the dog for the true root cause of their dry, itchy skin.
Treatment can be as simple as removing allergens from a dog's diet, like chicken or grain. Scratching at the face, ears, and feet can be caused by a poultry allergy. Take note of your dog's symptoms and then talk to your veterinarian about what is happening to find the best treatment for your dog. A great way to keep your dog's skin healthy at home is to give them an oatmeal bath every few weeks to soothe irritated skin.

I have seen this on a variety of posts and thought this would be a feature I would quite like to join in with! Check out Teach Mentor Texts for more details about What Are You Reading?
The summer holidays started last week for teachers in the UK and after a few days in the classroom and celebrating Mr Dotty's doctorate graduation I am finally starting to get relaxed. And part of that is planning my summer reading!
Last Week
Last week the final book I shared with my class was FArTHER by Graham Baker-Smith. It was a lovely text to share as the final book of the year with class, if tinged with a little sadness. However I highly recommend this picture book and it's stunning illustrations. I also read a Michael Morpurgo book, Alien Invasion! which details life on a farm. Children will like the story and the funny illustrations that go with it. I also had a few re-reads of Into the Forest by Anthony Browne which we are going to be using for our first topic in the Autumn. I cannot wait and spent a few hours doing some mind mapping for it today.
I also read some good adult books!
Coming Up
I picked up Robot Dog by Mark Oliver and The Bear in the Cave by Michael Rosen over the weekend so I have those to read. Some longer novels to read are Room 13 by Robert Swindells, Which Witch? by Eva Ibbotson and I have The Earthsea Quartet by Ursula Le Guin. However my mood my change!
What have you been reading lately?

text: New Delhi: The Congress party may seek explanation from Haryana party leaders after the votes of 14 of its MLAs were declared invalid in the state's Rajya Sabha polls on Saturday. "Right now it cannot be said, as all the things need to become clear as to what really happened. And it's definite that the party would seek explanation from the state unit," senior Congress leader Rashid Alvi said. "And if our MLAs have used different pens then they must have used it unknowingly," Alvi said, adding, "But it is between the high command of the party and the state unit to find out the truth." According to party sources, the Congress party may seek explanation from former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda as MLAs owing allegiance to him rebelled against the party's decision to back the independent candidate R.K. Anand in the Rajya Sabha election in the state. The 14 MLAs apparently made their votes invalid by wrongly marking the ballot. Media baron Subhash Chandra, an independent candidate supported by the BJP, scraped through amid political drama during the vote count. He defeated independent candidate, Delhi-based lawyer R.K. Anand, who was supported by the INLD and the Congress. While Chandra got 24 votes, Anand managed only 15. Leader of opposition and INLD leader Abhay Chautala accused Congress legislators of getting their votes rejected during the election on Saturday. But Congress legislator Karan Singh Dalal blamed the INLD for Anand's defeat.

(This is part of a 365 project during my 70th year where I write and illustrate a blog on each day's gift.)
Not long ago, I received an e-mail from someone I hadn't seen in ten years who played a role in my last degree, Doctor of Communications Design, from the University of Baltimore. She is in the process of simplifying material possessions and had a copy of my book, my doctoral thesis, which she wanted to return to me. JoAnna had been one of three people on my doctoral committee.
She acknowledged that I had been ahead of the curve when I started focusing on the problem of bullying in 2001 before it became a buzzword and before cyber bullying exploded. It seems so long ago when I was teaching seventh-graders all day and doing graduate studies at night. With the help of American and Japanese teachers, my research began. I taught five classes (around 150 12-year-olds) a day, maintained a website for my students and their parents, developed a website for my studies, took six graduate credits a semester and tried to maintain my sanity. Sleep was rare in those days but stimulating intensity was abundant. It was an exciting time of learning, connecting, growing, evolving and creating. Now I look back on that time, wondering how I ever fit everything into my daily clock. Truth is that my social life was on hold.
A visit with JoAnna today at her home was a delight as we discussed the adventure of life and the importance of being open and how it leads to possibilities and more adventure. Today was a return to a most special time in my life. I came home with another copy of my book.
A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is not open." ~ Frank Zappa
My gift today is a return.

Barbara Nicolosi and Spencer Lewerenz, the executive and associate directors, respectively, of Act One, a training program for Christian screenwriters and executives, have edited a new book of essays by Christians in Hollywood, "Behind the Screen: Hollywood Insiders on Faith, Film, and Culture," and it may serve as something of a wake-up call to those who see Hollywood as Satan's backyard. These believers mourn the lack of awareness of the divine among so many of their colleagues, but do not view themselves as infiltrators into a debauched world, dedicating their lives to smuggling God into an atheistic culture. As each of the writers in "Behind the Screen" individually reflect on their careers, or the role of faith in film, they speak in unison about one thing: the only way for issues of faith to make their way into Hollywood films is for more people of faith to work there.
While "Behind the Screen" marks a call for Christians to take a step toward embracing Hollywood, Hollywood is doing its utmost to embrace Christians. Having discovered an enormous, previously unnoticed audience for Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ," the film industry has begun to reach out to Christian audiences, in the hopes of attracting them to faith-friendly films. This has taken some odd turns, as when Columbia Pictures made a big push among religious audiences and church groups for last year's "Christmas With the Kranks," a slapstick holiday comedy starring Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis whose main religious selling point seemed to be that it took place on a Christian holiday.
Having grown more sophisticated in their marketing to Christian audiences (or maybe just having better films to work with), major studios are making a big push this holiday season and onward for religious moviegoers to embrace their films. This trend is visible on television as well, with the recent success of NBC's miniseries "Revelations," and upcoming programs like "The Ten Commandments."
20th Century Fox has leapt to the forefront, launching a faith-friendly version of their website (www.foxfaith.com) that features religious- and family-oriented films, and announcing their commitment to produce a baker's dozen of films for this audience. Fox also announced the establishment of relationships with born-again actors like Judge Reinhold and Stephen Baldwin, making an appearance with Baldwin at this year's Christian Booksellers' Convention to promote his new film "Midnight Clear."
Other upcoming or recent movies and TV series being marketed to Christians include:
"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe": One of the most anticipated films of this holiday season. Disney held a reception for the film at the Christian Booksellers' Convention, and a slew of new books on the Christian aspects of the film (and the C.S. Lewis book on which it is based), being released. Speculation has run rampant about how faithful the film and its planned sequels will be to the Christian allegory at the heart of Lewis' adventure tale, and Disney has marketed the film heavily in faith communities. Trailers are currently in theaters, and the film will open December 9.

Bruce Oldfield has flatly denied speculation that he has created Kate Middleton's wedding dress.
Talking to Vogue, the couture designer – who was a favourite of Diana's - quashed the rumours once and for all.
"It's been such a subject of rumour and speculation over the past months, but I am not designing it," he said.
"We will all know tomorrow – and I thought I'd duck out of the 'possibles list' to give everyone 24 hours to place their final bets!"
Despite not being involved, Bruce is confident the future Princess will shine on her big day.
"Catherine will undoubtedly look spectacular," he said.
"She has a fantastic figure and knows well what suits her. I shall be intrigued to see her choice of design."
Top designers reveal how Kate could look on her big day

The Alfa Romeo 4C has been originally released back in 2013 and since then it has been available around the World, being the first model from the Italian manufacturer available for sale on the US market for a really long time.
While the car is not exactly cheap, costing more than $55,000 in the base trim level, it offers one of the most exciting chassis out there and its engine, while not really powerful, being one of the better ones in its class.
Some of its rivals such as the Cayman are a bit more refined but the Alfa 4C manages to be the one offering the most analogue driving experience on the market with a nearly perfectly balanced chassis.
While it still is a rather new car, some rumors are suggesting that a new 2017 Alfa Romeo 4C Coupe might be released in the near future, most likely by the end of the year. The new model would get some improvements to its running gear and interior quality and it would make for a more nicer car to drive all around.
Some of the buyers of the current model said that the non-assisted steering rack or the lack of interior insulation is not really needed to make the car nice to drive and in order to meet their demands, Alfa might release a better equipped version of the 4C with a hydraulically power-assisted steering column, slightly better insulation, better seats as well as a nicer engine.
2017 Alfa Romeo 4C Coupe Price
All of these will certainly come at a higher price with an expected starting point of around $65,000 which will bring it a lot closer to the Cayman than before.
Design of Alfa Romeo 4C
Design wise, the 2017 Alfa Romeo 4C Coupe is very likely going to stay similar to the ongoing model and we only expect them to make minor adjustments.
For example, the design of the wheels is likely to change and the Coupe version is now going to benefit from a new set of headlights, more similar to those found on the original concept car.
Alfa Romeo 4C Coupe Interior
Inside the cabin, the new 4C is likely going to receive a new dashboard with slightly more amenities than before as well as a better styled interior.
The seats will provide a more comfortable ride than before while being just as light and as standard the car should now come with satellite navigation, a better infotainment system with phone-mirroring technology as well as slightly better materials on the dashboard, seats and door covers.
Engine of 2017 Alfa Romeo 4C
Under the rear deck-lid, the 2017 Alfa Romeo 4C Coupe is expected to ditch its current 1.75 liter inline 4 petrol engine in the favor of an all new powertrain. While this is still reasonably powerful, it is quite old and can't really match the smoothness of its newer siblings.
In its place, Alfa is expected to install an all aluminum 2 liter turbocharged inline 4 unit which will also be found on the new Giulia. This engine will make over 270 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque which is a more than 40 horsepower and 50 lb-ft of torque increase.
While this seems like a major improvement, the car will be similarly fast to the ongoing model and that's because it is expected to gain around 150 to 200 pounds from the extra features added to the car. The 0 to 60 MPH time will still be around 4,5 seconds while its top speed will now be slightly higher due to the change of the gearbox's ratios.
The brakes as well as most of the running gear and powertrain are going to remain identical to the current model which is to be expected considering the 2017 car will just be a refresh aimed to make it easier to drive and more comfortable during long trips.

Although both a slow-cooker (and also a Thermomix), typically cook food at less than the boiling point of water, which is considered a healthier way of cooking . . . surely the prolonged heat exposure to vegetables in particular, as a result of hours and hours of slow-cooking, has to put the integrity of the more unstable water-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients at unnecessary risk? Of course, there are always exceptions, such as the antioxidant lycopene, a red pigment carotenoid, which actually becomes more bioavailable when tomatoes are cooked. But shouldn't we also be concerned about the other more fragile micronutrients in tomatoes?
As a general rule, the longer a food is exposed to heat and the higher the cooking temperature, the higher the subsequent nutrient loss. Preserving nutrients as best you can using cooking methods is definitely a tricky science, especially on the stovetop where timing is crucial if you wish to preserve the nutrients in the foods you are cooking.
Steaming has long been recommended as the most favourable method of stovetop cooking to reduce nutrient loss and thankfully we can look to our trusty Thermomix to help us out with this method of cooking in the Varoma. But rest assured, we can also look favourably at the TM bowl method of cooking in comparison to stovetop cooking methods such as simmering, boiling and frying which all expose foods to higher temperatures which are difficult to control. This is just another way that the Thermomix comes into it's own, not only are foods cooked quickly (less time) and at comparably low temperatures which are preset and controlled, they are cooked to perfection if you follow well-tested recipes, ensuring that nutrient loss is kept to a minimum. In terms of nutrition, quick methods of cooking at low temperatures has to be more superior, and any Thermomix owner understands the concept of 'fast' in comparison to other methods of cooking.
Traditionally a lamb ragu is slow cooked for hours to develop flavours and tenderize meats. Using a heavy based pan and my thermie, I believe that I have achieved that lovely richness of flavour and melt in the mouth texture to the lamb in much less time, preserving more of the nutrition in your lamb and vegetables :)
700g diced lamb
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground fennel
1/2 tsp ground cumin seeds
1 tbsp organic butter or ghee
2 large cloves garlic
1 onion, halved
1 large carrot, cut into chunks
20-40g extra virgin olive oil
50g tomato paste or concentrate
1 tbsp TM vegetable stock paste
400g can BPA-free tomatoes (or your own TM cooked tomatoes)
100g tomato passata or sauce
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary, leaves only
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves and/or parsley
1 dry bay leaf
1/2 cup dry red wine
1. Make a spice rub for the lamb by combining the coriander, fennel and cumin in a small bowl with the diced lamb. Mix well to cover and place in the fridge for about 30 minutes. TIP: It does pay to freshly grind your spices from the whole variety so that your finished dish will be more fragrant and flavoursome. Also, your lamb should be evenly diced for successful shredding later.
2. Melt the butter or ghee in a heavy based pan (cast iron and not non-stick preferably) over moderately-high heat. In two batches, sear the lamb on all sides until deeply browned, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove the meat to a plate and repeat with the remaining lamb. The lamb should still be rare inside. DO NOT clean the pan!
3. Now add the spiced lamb to the TM bowl and shred for 2-4 seconds on reverse speed 5 to break up slightly. The lamb will break up further as it simmers, so don't over-do this step and turn your lamb into mush. Remove to the plate.
4. Add the garlic cloves, onion and carrot to TM bowl. Chop on speed 7 for 5 seconds. Add olive oil and sauté at Varoma temp for 3 minutes on speed 1. Scrape down sides of bowl, add tomato paste and cook a further 2 mins at Varoma temp.
5. Add dry red wine to the frypan and deglaze, simmer on the stovetop until the liquid thickens. Then scrape contents of the frypan into the TM bowl.
6. Return the shredded lamb to the TM bowl and add the remaining ingredients (stock paste, canned tomatoes, passata, fresh herbs and bay leaf) to the TM bowl.
7. Simmer the ragu at 90°C, speed soft, reverse for at least 15 minutes. . . or longer if you prefer in which case you may need to add some water. . . . just don't cook it all day :)
Meanwhile cook your pasta or lightly steam or sauté your zucchini spirals. I like to serve with a side of green salad or steamed broccoli to ensure that we are getting our daily greens quota :)

Let Them Eat Facts: Why Fact Checking Is Mostly Useless In Convincing Voters
from the feeling-entitled-to-your-own-facts dept
In response to that last post, someone complained that I was arguing that "facts don't matter" and worried that this would just lead to more and more lies and fake news from all sides. I hope that's not the case, but as I said in my reply, it's somewhat more complicated. Some folks liked that reply a lot so I'm expanding on it a bit in this post. And the key point is to discuss why "fact checking" doesn't really work in convincing people whom to vote for. This doesn't mean I'm against fact checking, or think that facts don't matter. Quite the reverse. I think more facts are really important, and I've spent lots of time over the years calling out bogus news stories based on factual errors.
But here's the problem: the general business of fact checking seems to merely serve to, again, reinforce and retrench opinions, rather than change them. As I said in my comment, there are a large group of people out there that view the whole fact checking business itself as a sort of condescending "let them eat facts" kind of thing, in which they're being scolded for believing the "wrong" kind of thing. And this has lead (not surprisingly) to widespread attacks on fact checkers themselves as being "biased." You don't have to look very hard to find (often conservative-leaning) publications argue that "fact checkers" are biased against their views. The famed debunking site Snopes has come in for particular attack this year as just a liberal front. In the past few months, any time I've mentioned Snopes, or seen someone else link to it in our comments, another comment will mock them from linking to such a "biased" or "Clinton-supporting" site. Snopes itself, for it's part, has put up a somewhat amusing page with all of the contradictory accusations of bias it has received over the years from people who dislike its fact checking on certain politicians.
Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously stated "You're entitled to your opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts." It's a good quote, but the problem is that plenty of people do feel entitled to their own facts these days. And straight up fact checking seems like the wrong approach. In psychology, there's a concept known as cognitive dissonance, describing how people basically trick themselves into dealing with contradictory beliefs (the term is technically about the uncomfortable position people are in put in because of the contradictory ideas, but it is commonly used to describe how people effectively trick themselves to get out of that state). It seems to describe how many people end up dealing with inconvenient facts. They don't change their mind -- they just come up with an excuse as to why the facts presented are wrong or biased. And when they're presented in the form of "fact checking" from a big site or news publication, it's easier than ever to dismiss them, because we're told over and over again that "you can't trust the media." That gives people an out -- when they come across inconvenient facts, they insist that there's bias or a problem with the source while not dealing with the actual underlying facts. And studies have shown that fact checking can not just fail to convince people in political debates, it can actually make them cling more strongly to their false beliefs.
I'm not quite sure how to deal with this, but I wonder if the overall approach needs to change. It's pretty uncommon to see people change their minds when just handed a big stack of facts. Some have suggested that convincing people they're wrong on something is so complex that it has to involve them literally transforming how they think of themselves, which is not going to happen when you just throw a pile of facts at them. In my experience, the times I've been convinced to change my mind, or seen others change their minds, it tends to come when there are long drawn out conversations, exploring the issues in more depth -- with lots of back and forth. But also it tends to happen in environments where the stakes are lower (e.g., often private, rather than public discussions, where no one "loses face" for realizing they were wrong).
Given that, I still don't know what the solution is, but merely pumping up the fact checking isn't going to do much to change anyone's minds. It just angers some, and reinforces the feelings of superiority of others.

Vision Opportunity Fund LP
The Vision Opportunity Fund Limited Partnership is only available by way of offering memorandum to Canadian accredited investors.
Vision has Outperformed in Declining and Volatile Markets
Since their inception, The Vision Opportunity Funds ("Funds" or "Vision Funds") managed by Vision Capital
Corporation ("Vision") have outperformed Canadian Equity, Hedge Fund and Real Estate indices,
even in declining and volatile markets.
Vision's Superior Risk-Adjusted Returns
Since inception, the Vision Funds have been able to outperform Canadian Equity, Hedge Fund and Real Estate indices with a substantially low risk profile.
To request a copy of Vision Capital Corporation's comprehensive presentation, please contact Jeffrey Olin at firstname.lastname@example.com or (416) 362-6546.
(1): Returns disclosed are representative of a broad array of Canadian hedge funds as represented by the Scotiabank Canadian Hedge Fund Index. These returns are presented for information purposes only and to assist the reader's top of mind reference to the returns on investments that they may own. As Funds managed by Vision generally employ more of a private equity rather than a hedge fund strategy, this index is not represented, nor intended to be referenced, as a performance benchmark for the Fund.
(2): The S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index is presented for informational purposes only to assist the reader's top of mind reference to the returns on other investments that they may own. As a broad-based general stock market index, it is not represented, nor intended to be referenced, as a performance benchmark for the Fund.
(3): The Vision Performance Benchmark Index is an equally weighted average of the S&P/TSX Capped REIT Total Return Index and the Scotiabank Canadian Hedge Fund Index and assumes monthly rebalancing to an equal-weight benchmark. For additional clarifying notes and details of the Vision Opportunity Funds, please contact us and/or refer to www.visioncap.ca
(4): The MSCI US REIT Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is comprised of equity REITs. The index is based on MSCI USA Investable Market Index (IMI), its parent index which captures large, mid-size, and small caps securities. With 144 constituents, it represents about 99% of the US REIT universe and securities are classified in the REIT sector according to the Global Industry Classification Standard (CICS(r)). It, however, excludes Mortgage REIT and selected specialized REITS. It is a total return index.
(5): The S&P/TSX Capped REIT Total Return Index is also presented for informational purposes only. While the primarily real estate-oriented focus of the Fund makes this index of more direct relevance to the Fund's performance, the more narrow criterion used for index inclusion limit the index use as a direct performance benchmark for the Fund.
(6): Net Asset Value and Return on Investment data are as provided by Vision Opportunity Fund Limited Partnership's independent administrator, SGGG Fund Services Inc., and are net of fees and expenses.
(7): July 2, 2008 was the inception date of Vision Opportunity Fund Limited Partnership.
(8): The Sharpe ratio measures the return in excess of the risk-free rate relative to the volatility of the return. The higher the fund's Sharpe ratio, the better returns the fund has yielded in relation to its risk.
(9): The Sortino ratio is a variation of the Sharpe ratio which differentiates harmful volatility from volatility in general by replacing standard deviation with downside deviation in the denominator. Thus the Sortino Ratio is calculated by subtracting the risk free rate from the return of the portfolio and then dividing by the downside deviation. The downside deviation is defined as the volatility of returns below the risk free rate. The Sortino ratio measures the return to "bad" volatility or a measurement of return per unit of risk on the downside. This ratio allows investors to assess risk in a better manner than simply looking at excess returns to total volatility, since such a measure does not consider how often the price of the security rises as opposed to how often it falls. A large Sortino Ratio indicates a low risk of large losses occurring.
(10): Up-Market and Down-Market Capture Ratios are statistical measures of an investment manager's overall performance in up and down markets. The up or down market capture ratio is used to evaluate how well an investment manager performed relative to an index during periods when that index has risen or fallen. A negative down market capture ratio indicates that the fund increased on average during the months when the index decreased. (Compared to the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index)
(11): All performance and risk metric references to the Class A Units of the Vision Opportunity Fund LP herein refer to Series 1 of the Class A Units of the Vision Opportunity Fund LP. The inception of the Vision Opportunity Fund Limited Partnership was July 2, 2008. On February 28th, 2013, unitholders approved the extension of the Fund and the creation of two classes of Units: Class A and Class B units. On May 23rd, 2014, the Class A units outstanding at that time were renamed Class Z units. Other than short term variations in performance, as a result of series accounting for units issued within the calendar year there are no material differences in performance in Class A and Class Z units.
(12): Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance.

Roslan bin Bakar was arrested on 18 July 2008. He was convicted of trafficking 96.07g of diamorphine and 76.37g of methamphetamine and sentenced to death on 22 April 2010.
To this day, Roslan has maintained his innocence, saying that he had not been at the scene of the crime. He was convicted mostly based on testimony, and not concrete evidence. He says that the others who testified against him only testified to escape the capital charges themselves.

Ok, last but not least, last week:
Lots happened last week. We visited the house and saw our new kitchen. The house is further along than we expected, which was pretty exciting. We don't know if the house will be delivered early, but either way, the end is in sight and that's exciting and scary!
I always knew that I wanted a white kitchen, but I never thought I would end up mimicking my mom's colours as much as we are doing. It wasn't intentional, I swear!
I was also reminded why I stopped dying my hair!
Only one week in and there's some serious regrowth!
The rest of the photos taken for this week really focus on my nephew's 5th birthday:
And Paul's commentary and the best photo of the evening:

Tonight, the Big Ten Network will, it says in a news release, "capture the madness and hysteria associated with the beginning of another thrilling basketball season with two and a half hours of live coverage during Big Ten Tonight: Basketball Season Tip-off Special."
The show will have live coverage of "Hoosier Hysteria" at Indiana, Michigan State's "Midnight Madness," "Tubby's Tipoff" at Minnesota, and Wisconsin's "Night of the Grateful Red."
In Los Angeles, there will be no hysteria, madness or anyone particularly grateful after UCLA Coach Ben Howland gets down to the business of coaching defensive principles and USC Coach Tim Floyd starts tutoring newcomers such as DeMar DeRozan and Leonard Washington about the rigors of scoring against, say, UCLA's defense.
The Bruins will practice from 8 to 11 tonight in a locked-down Pauley Pavilion. USC will begin at 7 p.m. without TV cameras or students filling the stands at Galen Center to welcome a new basketball season.

Discover the Offbeat Side of Mumbai
This is an excellent tour with Zeeshan, whom himself is a wonderful guide. My last day in Mumbai was spent in the morning on the half day tour starting from Sassoon Docks seeing the Koli fishermen coming in with their catch to their family selling their catch. We vistited a number of very interesting place such as the Dhobi Ghat, Koli fishermen's village, Spice Market and Thieves Market.
My desire was to come to Mumbai was not as a tourist snapping away pictures of everything I saw, but to appreciate, absorb and captivate the different fabrics that bind Mumbai as a Wonderful city to visit.
Afer the tour, Zeeshan was very kind and thoughtful to organise a taxi at a good rate to take me to the airport from Colaba.
Thank you to Zeeshan, Oves (my first guide who took me to Dharavi-an ecellent tour and guide) and Fahim. I highly recommend these tours not only for their prices, but for their high quality content and excellent guides.
An Inside Look at the Slums of Mumbai: Dharavi
Excellent tour by Oves. Well ochestrated and spoken in a high standard of English and engaging. I 'very left Dharavi, well informed and with a deeper understanding. Although photography is not allowed, the sights and sound will live in my memory forever as my I have a deeper and meaningful respect for the residents. With Oves knowledge I able narrated Dharavi to my circle of families and frinds. Oves, thank you for sharing your neighbourhood with me, for I now have a greater admiration for Eternally Resourceful Dharavi.
An Inside Look at the Slums of Mumbai: Dharavi

Homestay Getaway: Puppet Shows and Dolphin Watching
I loved my holiday with Culture Aangan! I was able to enjoy incredible homecooked food in a comfortable homestay in the relaxing outskits of Kudal. My guide took me to visit a number of different artists in the community and was very helpful in ensuring my visit was perfectly suited to my needs. It's a wonderful program that supports rural economies, while exposing the traveler to unique experiences.

Join Nigel French for an in-depth discussion in this video Overview and choosing fonts, part of Designing a Typographic Constructivist Poster.
The constructivists believed that art should play an important role in constructing a better future. Constructivism had a great effect on modern art movements of the 20th century, such as Bauhaus in 1920s Germany and the De Stijl movement in the Netherlands. Constructivist typography remains ever popular, because as well as being striking, it's also easy to imitate. One of the most influential graphic designers of the modern age, Neville Brody, revived the constructivist look in the 1980s, and acknowledges his debt to Alexander Rodchenko, one of constructivism's leading figures.
For this course, I've created a Pintrest board to give you a flavor of constructivist typography. You can access that board here. I've chosen to illustrate the slogan, The Future is Our Only Goal. A quote from Alexander Rodchenko. The font I'm using is Molot, available for a voluntary donation at dafont.com. You'll also find many similar square solid sans serif constructivist inspired typefaces on the dafont site.
Want more inspiration? Check out the Pinterest Board for this course, and visit Nigel's author page to view more installments in the Type Project series.

Consistency With Yourself, Is Self-Love
By Melissa Kelly, 03/07/2016
How many times have you forgotten about yourself, the minute you end up in a relationship with someone you really like? Put your needs last to everyone else around you? Decided to skip out on a morning routine or workout to make time for other people in your life?
Sometimes over-giving can be another form of not fully receiving and self-sabotage. It can seem like small things in the moment, but over time not being consistent with giving yourself what you need and fully showing up for yourself, will catch up with you.
Here are some ways being consistent with yourself is self-love:
~ You are learning how NOT to abandon yourself and become your biggest supporter of your dreams and goals.
~ You fully show up for yourself and you wonder how you ever functioned any other way.
~ By being consistent with yourself, you are sending messages to your heart mind and body that you are enough, you deserve this and dedicate your time to making sure you receive what you need.
~ Being consistent with yourself means you no longer put that pressure on someone else to fill that role.
~ You start to take yourself and your dreams more seriously, which gives them a bigger chance to manifest in more ways than you ever imagined, along with the confidence you will need to acquire them.
~ The more consistent you are with yourself, you will start to attract people in your life who will also be consistent with their actions and words.
With Love,
We are a Donation based service for the Planetary Ascension. Thank you for showing your support and keeping our website and Love Energies moving forward!
