Feng Shui, an ancient art and science developed in China over 3,000 years, is now practiced in many countries including India. It is a Chinese philosophical system of harmonizing everyone with the surrounding environment, a method of balancing the energies of any given space to get good health and good fortune for people. Feng shui literally means "wind-water" in English and is one of the Five Arts of Chinese Metaphysics.
In this system the world is divided into five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal and water. The five element theory is the soul of feng shui and also forms the basis for prescribing cures for various material afflictions. It presupposes that the chi (universal energy), based on Taoism, exists not only in every direction but also within the human body.
The Chi energy in Chinese medicine is known as the Yin and Yang – Yin expresses feminine energy (passive) while Yang expresses the masculine (active). Both, in a proper balance, are required for a harmonious living.
Let us look at one of the elements in this article: Fire. This element rules the South direction and enhances fame and recognition. The energy of the South feng shui bagua area is better translated as the Light, or Fire Within. This energy of the South feng shui bagua area is reflected in the image you project to other people, how others see you and how well you maintain your own values and identity.
Red, pink, orange, purple and deep yellow are the colors that represent the feng shui element of South. This means that if you want to keep your fire energy strong, it would be best to avoid blue or black color items in your South feng shui bagua area.
Light is the strongest manifestation of energy and represents the Fire element. Correct lighting is essential to the practice of feng shui in your home. The energy from the sun is manifested mainly as light and heat and both forms of energy are essential for a balanced healthy living. Artificial lighting is a substitute for sunlight and therefore essential in feng shui. Appropriate lighting and its placement is important to have a balanced chi in the home.
A dark room or one with insufficient lighting will have yin energy and is not a good chi. The best way to remedy this is to light up dark areas of the home. The areas in the home which see more activity like the kitchen, study and areas where you read need brighter lighting. The living room or the family room can have subdued lighting or lights than can be regulated with dimmers such that you can regulate the brightness according to the need. Dimmers are also good for bedrooms unless you have the habit of reading in bed, in which case you would need brighter lights or bed side lights for that purpose.
In feng shui, a light fixture over the bed is not recommended as it creates health problems mainly for the liver and eyesight and is generally considered inauspicious. Similarly lights that throw shadows on the ceilings and walls are considered inauspicious as they bring in yin energy and these should be avoided.
Much of the practice of feng shui is based on Pa Kua, an eight-sided symbol that represents the eight directions: four primary and four secondary. The primary directions are East, West, North and South while the secondary ones are North East, North West, South East and South West.
Each of these directions represents different life's ambitions. East represents good health, West represents descendant's luck, North brings luck in career while South brings fame and recognition. In the secondary directions, North East represents education, North West brings mentor luck and represents friendship, South East is for riches and wealth while South West is for love and romance.
There are broadly two types of lighting – hard and soft. Mercury, halogen and fluorescent lights are generally considered hard and are more suitable for shops, offices and to illuminate dark areas like alley ways, porches and landings. Soft lighting is generally preferred for homes and for areas in the home that need brighter illumination use white lights.
So energise the areas as per your needs and aspirations with lights that cover the entire spectrum and what better than white lights as the colour white encompasses the entire spectrum.

Being Evan's birthday and all we went to Bottega last night for dinner. We had been once before in late spring/early summer and I was somewhat underwhelmed. I had some kind of seafood risotto which, though good, was not really interesting enough to warrant the price. But last night's food made up for it. I had a parmesan soufflé with mushrooms and prosciutto for an appetizer. Delish, but really rich, so I'm glad it was little. My entrée was halibut with citrus and pistachio on olive oil crushed potatoes. Awesome. Seriously. Evan had some kind of braised beef stew appetizer and a beef tenderloin entrée (also very tasty). Unfortunately I spent my entire food budget for pretty much the rest of forever and will be living off canned soup for the foreseeable future. Try not to hold it against me if I start smelling like beef and barley, ok?

Chin Augmentation
Mentoplasty (chin surgery) is a surgical procedure to reshape the chin by either augmenting or reducing it. Chin implants improve a person's profile by making a "weak" chin look stronger; chin reduction also improves the profile, but removes bone and/or tissue and muscle to do so. To create optimal facial proportion, mentoplasty is often performed in conjunction with rhinoplasty (nose surgery).
The Mentoplasty Procedure
Candidates for mentoplasty typically have a weak chin and/or prominent nose, or a prominent jaw.
Chin Augmentation
Mentoplasty that augments the chin takes approximately 45 minutes to an hour to perform under general anesthesia. During the procedure, an incision is made underneath the chin, which eliminates visible scarring. A pocket is created for the individualized implant (typically made of semi-solid silicone), which is then placed and positioned in front of the jawbone. Once in place, the implant is secured with sutures. The patient returns home the same day.
Chin Reduction
Mentoplasty that reduces the chin takes approximately 1 to 2 hours to perform. General anesthesia is required. The procedure begins with the surgeon's making an incision inside the mouth or under the chin. Excess bone and/or tissue and muscle are removed, and the tip of the chin is contoured to the desired shape using a bone burr or drill. In some cases, a piece of the bone is removed, and the chin is repositioned. Sutures are used to close the incision. The patient returns home the same day.
Recovery from Mentoplasty
After mentoplasty, a patient may experience tightness and swelling in the chin. Discomfort can be relieved with pain medication, although most patients report that pain is gone within 3 to 5 days. A compression garment may be taped to the chin to reduce swelling. For 2 weeks following mentoplasty, eating only a light, liquid-based diet is recommended. Sutures are removed within 10 days. Full recovery from mentoplasty takes 4 to 6 weeks and patients are very presentable after 2 weeks.
Risks of Mentoplasty
Risks of mentoplasty include implant displacement or bone absorption (in augmentation), asymmetry, numbness in the lip and chin, infection and bleeding. In general, serious complications are rare. The chance of complications is minimized by choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon who has experience in performing mentoplasty. With Dr.Sunder's exceptional accolades, patients can rest assured that they are in the greatest of hands.

I need a pull for my teak Secretary Desk by Børge Mogensen for Soborg Mobler. Does anyone know of a source for an original or someone who could make one for me?
Chris M,
For years I have used a retired Army armorer with and interest in pre-war trains (Marklin) and toys (Marklin). He was able to dis-assemble and clean pieces as well as fabricate an intricate part upon demand (no original to be found).
I also found a master jeweler that was able to undo a poor repair and make a small internal platinum leaf spring for a Van Cleef & Arpels baton cuff link (at least only one link was damaged). This was restoration work at it's finest.
My newest resource made a screw for a Gubelin minute repeater wristwatch. To me this is unbelievable in this day and age.
Similar to the cleaners used in New York, Paris, Milan et cetera to practice their trade on runway clothing. They may obviously be trusted to clean my textiles. Locate the people who manufacture and/or market the "finer things in life" and inquire as to who they use or suggest to maintain their products.
These trade people are usually fair priced, but have large work back-orders (others know of their skill). Best of luck in your search.
It will not be difficult.

Today I am posting three cards, they are the same card in different colors, I created this card for my first cousin who had a baby boy in March. The "recipe" is the same in all three cards just different colors. I used a light blue Bazzill cardstock for the base of the card, the rest of the paper is a nice heavy white cardstock that I bought in bulk at a stamping store in Marietta GA when Gene and I were on a business trip. The bottom layer of white is punched with the Martha Stewart Deco shell border punch and then the next layer was run through the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dot Embossing folder. The sentiment is stamped on a Spellbinders Fancy Tag die and says "Time to Celebrate" (at the time that was the only appropriate sentiment I had, I have since rectified that situation LOL). The baby (stamped image) is a Close to My Heart stamp, actually a Christmas set, "Let Us Adore Him" (B1260) and it is actually baby Jesus. I stamped him using Versamark clear embossing ink and I embossed it with Zing Embossing Powder. I then cut him out and matted it on the same blue as the card base. I used some sheer white ribbon in my stash to finish off the card. I loved the way it turned out and it is a fairly simple card. I liked this card so much I made a pink one and a yellow one as well. I hope y'all like it too. Please leave me a comment letting me know what you think! Thanks so much.
(I wanted to let you know, if you scroll down to the "Let us Adore Him" post, you can see where I used this same stamp on a Christmas card) I love having stamps that are multi use

- BIG wins "The Red Line" Waterfront Masterplan

Located in Tijuana, México, Ph4 house's main objective is to create a balance between privacy and openness, the project was mainly developed from two constraints.
The first one is that the house will be inhabited by an elderly couple, so most of the program is on the first floor, a long glass and concrete box which breaks in the transition between the public and private space.
Superimposed is a solid volume which twists itself in the opposite direction as the one below, ending in a 7 meter cantilever across the garden. A concrete staircase leads up to the projecting first floor, which houses a guest bedroom and study.
The second is the site, a triangle with a narrow street facade, the rest of the perimeter is adjacent to other houses. It was decided to set the main volume on the center of the site, thus creating connections between interior and exterior along the succession of programatic spaces and a pathway around the house.

The design for this music school is based upon the creation of two hermetic chambers to house rehearsals inside a large space in a historic building located in Nova Prata, Brazil. The configuration of such boxes turns the residual space into two ambients that, even though are continuous, configure different spaces for different activities.
The proposal aims to enrich the user's experience while using the as little compositive elements as possible. When entering the school, one arrives at a foyer located between two chambers, where the administration and reception are; going further inside the school, a new space emerges, where students can practice before and after class, interacting and sharing knowledge.
The interior of the chambers was designed in order to optimize the acoustics and the comfort of the users. The lighting solution maintains the 3,4-meter-high ceiling and creates a lower light surface, increasing the comfort without losing the acoustic properties of the original building.
A series of furniture were designed to meet the overall resource economy of the project. The material used in the furnishing is the same OSB that covers the interior of the chambers, assuring unity to the design. The different models satisfy the different users'needs, from instrument practice to administrative functions.

BIG wins "The Red Line" Waterfront Masterplan
Posted: 08 May 2012 07:22 AM PDT
BIG wins the competition to revitalize the city center of the third largest city in Finland.
The invited design contest calls for a strong architectural master plan, comprising residential, commercial and cultural programme, forming a new urban area around the existing Ratina sports stadium in one of the most rapidly developing regions in Finland. BIG is selected as a winner of the competition by Finnish developers Rakennustomisto Pohjola & YH-Länsi, among proposals from Swedish Wingårdhs, German Behnisch Partner and Finnish JKMM.
BIG's proposal, The Red Line, seeks to uncover the urban potential of the 50 000 m2 site located on the Ratinanniemi peninsula, which serves as an important link between Tampere City Centre and the nature area of Eteläpuisto Park. BIG's design embraces and builds upon the existing qualities of the site which is naturally divided into three distinct zones, each holding a unique character.
The three areas are conceived as different architectural typologies targeting the potentials of each of the sites. The zone north of the Ratina Stadium holds the potential of becoming a new urban skyline of Tampere visible from the city centre. BIG proposes a miniature skyline of point houses built on pillars in the water all varying in height. The houses are programmed with offices, commercial and cultural space on the ground floor supporting the public life along the waterfront, while private residences with rooftop gardens and spectacular views occupy the higher levels.
The second area, on the tip of the peninsula encompasses an urban perimeter block which surrounds a green courtyard and is distorted to follow the natural topography allowing views from all housing units. The building touches the ground in both ends which allows people to access the building roof featuring a publicly accessible hiking track. Small zones along the route invite for a break on the way up, light workout or a chance to enjoy the spectacular views of the city.
At the street of Tampereen Valtatie a new building with retail, offices and culture doubles as an extension to the spectator stands, forming a hybrid building which breaths life into the stadium. The facades are clad in horizontal louvers that filter the sun towards south and become stepped spectator stands on the north side.
A linear public space, the red line, meanders through the three new developments and connects them to the surrounding neighbourhoods. The red line changes shape and function throughout the area – from a boardwalk with harbor baths and saunas along the miniature skyline to a public hiking path reaching the peak of the perimeter block, finally ending as a running track along the stadium building.

"...He's About A Mover..."
London's Jimmy Nairn has been an underground white Soul-boy phenomenon for decades amidst Mod-mad stylists and Northern Soul dancefloor fiends.
Never a musical household name in any sense of the word – James Royal (his stage name) nonetheless clocked up a staggering 18 seven-inch singles on Parlophone and CBS Records between 1964 and 1970 in the UK alone – as well as a straggler track on a rare 1964 Decca compilation. Royal even managed a British debut album of his own on CBS in 1969 named after this compilation - "Call My Name" (9 of its 13 tracks are accounted for here).
Musically this CD is pure Soul-Boy dancing candy where James Royal swoons Jackie Wilson style about heartache, suffering, pain or dying (or all four if you're really lucky) - and you can literally see and feel those sassily-clad British dancers getting lost in the cross-armed drama of it all as they slide about in 45-induced rapture on runways of talcum powder. You can also hear the improvement in his vocal delivery as the years went on - to a point where his stunning 1969 cover of The Rascals "You Better Run" (an exclusive to the 1969 "Call My Name" LP) is virtually indistinguishable from Steve Marriott between late Small Faces and early Humble Pie (high praise indeed). On the evidence of this track alone – JR's legend is more than justified.
And that's where this hip-gyrating 2017 CD from the collectors specialist reissue label 'RPM Records' comes shimmying in. Here are the ravers and movers...
UK released 23 June 2017 (30 June 2017 in the USA) - "Call My Name: Selected Recordings 1964-1970" by JAMES ROYAL on RPM Records RETRO 989 (Barcode 5013929599895) is a 25-Track CD compilation of Remasters that plays out as follows (69:26 minutes):

I know RPM have carefully and honestly entitled the compilation 'Selected Recordings...' – but we should also highlight what's 'not' here. As you can see from the LP's track-list provided above and bearing in mind this CD has a total playing time of 69:26 minutes - the four missing songs from the 1969 debut album could and should have been included here. The two B-sides "Fire..." and "Anna Lee" and the A-side "It's All In The Game" are also missing too and you can't help but think there was room on this disc for all seven no shows. Having said that - let's deal with what we do have...
Project-managed by JOHN REED and MARK STRATFORD for RPM Records - the 16-page booklet has a superb essay on Royal's early career by IAN GRINHAM (dated April 2017) that clearly has had input from the great man himself. Trade and publicity photos of the West London slugger pepper the text - there's a colour repro of the rare 1964 "Ready, Steady - Win!" LP sleeve on Decca where Royal had an exclusive track - repro's of British Parlophone and CBS 45 demos - adverts for The Ealing Club in 1964 where James Royal and The Hawks twisted on Thursday while some no-mark bunch of ne'er-do-wells played R&B on Saturdays - The Rolling Stones. There are some side-profile colour photos of JR as we approach 1969 and an intriguing 1968 snap of our British hero with two other American heroes and influences - Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins. It's very nicely done and the text is hugely informative throughout - going into details on every song that fans will love ("I Can't Stand It" and I've Something Bad On My Mind" were hits for The Soul Sisters and Timi Yuro - that kind of stuff).
SIMON MURPHY over at Another Planet Music has done the mastering and the Mono and Stereo recordings vary from very good to amazing - but always clean and full of that 45-punch collectors love.
The music is one long play of dancers and smoochers - opening with the fab Doug Sahm groover "She's About A Mover" - Royal's debut 7" single on Parlophone in June 1965 with the equally wicked "Black Cloud" on the flipside. The Smokey McAllister winner "I Can't Stand It" that he penned for The Soul Sisters back in 1964 on Sue Records is presented here in two forms - a 1965 first stab on Parlophone and a 1967 re-cut on CBS Records in 1967. Both are great as is the so Northern Style vibes and strings of "And Soon The Darkness" written by Laurie Johnson and former Animals stalwart Alan Price.
Speaking of superb songwriters - an unsung hero here is the Canadian tunesmith Ralph Murphy who joined the James Royal camp in 1967 when he first signed to CBS. His name is either sole or co-writer on 10 of the 25 here - and the man had a knack for penning a white man's version of a Motown groove that white kids could dig and dance too. His compositions "Green Day", "Thru' The Love" and "A Woman Called Sorrow" are fantastic Northern Soul thumpers and alongside "Send Out Love" by Guy Fletcher and Doug Flett are obvious choice-cuts amidst many other classy covers. Royal's tremendous version of Van McCoy's "I've Lost You" (made famous by Jackie Wilson) is another toe-tapper as is the Ashford & Simpson song "When It Comes To My Baby" - originally a hit for Ronnie Milsap. Even the slightly sappy version of Jimmy Webb's "Which Way To Nowhere" sees JR put in storming vocals amidst the strings and girly backing singers.
Music is a funny old world and that England's James Royal never tasted British chart success is some kind of special criminal neglect.
Despite the fact that I feel RPM could have bolstered up "Call My Name..." with the LP tracks - what you do get here is solid five-star grooviness. Icing on a very tasty CD cake indeed. And I for one am down with that. Well done to all involved...-->

Just when I thought that, finally I have almost covered all the new places and must try places Pune has to offer here's a pleasant surprise and a correction statement from The Bar and Eatery – "Picture Abhi Baki Hain Mere Dost".
This place really took me by a pleasant surprise with the brilliant food with a twist, quirky cocktails, great service, and a lot many things that I have never really tried before.
Food Prowl Team was invited to The Bar and Eatery for food and cocktail tasting.
After the warm welcome by the Owners – Mr. Jeevnit Singh Chawla (Mickey) and Mr. Pawan Nandwani who also own the famous Burger joint in the Koregoan Park – Burger Barn, we were handed out the menu which was specially curated for this tasting session. One glance at the menu and I was sure that this was going to be one hell of night and marathon tasting session.
Here's all that we tired and I would like to highlight some of my favorite and most loved dishes and cocktails.
Soups (Tasters): – Tomato Basil Mozzarella: Tomato basil soup was pretty thick in consistency and had brilliant flavor of basil to it. The twist of adding thick mozzarella cheese at the bottom and hot soup poured on to it pushed this to another level altogether.
– Bacon, Beer, Cheese with Chicken: The moment you hear "Bacon/Beer/Cheese/Chicken" you are already anticipating something amazing and all of it together I must say hat's off to the chef and owners who worked on getting this right. Strong and prominent flavor of smoked bacon strips and pork chunks and generous amount of chicken with hints of cheese and beer. Perfect dish to start off and in this season it cannot get better.
I love my salads in whatever combinations they are served, here we had two options to try out:
– Paneer Mushroom and Corn Salad: I found this pretty decent (had this after the non-veg option). The combination of veggies, paneer corn and mushroom worked well and the dressing was also pretty good. Nice crunch from the veggies especially the lettuce and corn and balanced mushiness from the mushroom and good bite from small chunks of paneer.
– Asian Tenderloin Salad: Star of the evening had strips of beef tenderloin marinated beautifully. It had both spicy and sweetish taste from the variety of different sauces in the dressings. Well cooked noodles paired with tenderloin is a must have for beef lovers and people who wish to try starting out with beef this is a good thing to start with.
Non-Veg Appetizers:
– Buffalo Chicken Wings: Personally would have liked this to be a bit more spicy as it was served with blue cheese dip. A little more spice would have balanced out well with the blue cheese combination.
– Teriyaki Chicken: Nicely done and served on mini skewers. Good flavor of the sauces and chicken was cooked very well.
– Salmon & Cream Cheese Bruschetta: One of favorites. Delicate strips of smoked salmon with a combination of cream cheese, some herbs and black olive. Very subtle to almost no additional flavor of condiments kept the taste of salmon the way you would expect it to be. Welcoming change to the palate too.
Veg Appetizers:
– Garlic & Oregano Mushrooms, Mozzarella Cheese Sticks and Ultimate Fries: Tasted very small servings and portions of these (for obvious reasons VEG) and nothing felt out of place in any of these. The Ultimate Fries need special mention as they looked beautiful and wonderful cheesy coating.
– BBQ Bacon Mega Cheese Burger: Absolute must have. Soft bun with juicy beef patty with cheese and huge salty, crispy bacon strips. This was so good that I requested for one more serving of just the patty and bacon strips. Not to be missed for beef and bacon lovers.
– Pesto Sauce Penne Pasta: Pesto sauce was made in-house topped with generous shavings of cheese. Good flavor profile and very colorful presentation.
– Spaghetti Bolognese: Yet again a must have for beef lovers cheese, minced beef tossed in tomato sauce. Very strong and welcoming flavor of beef. Amazing dish.
Main Course:
– The Trifecta Steak: Very few places can boast of such a huge spread of beef dishes. For the steak purists, the steak was done medium rare in mushroom sauce and topped with small portion of mash and cherry tomatoes.
– Butter Chicken/Dal Makhni: Both were served like a mini meal (soft paratha, rice, papad, and salad). Good option for someone looking for a quick meal. Decent portion size. The menu boasts of quite a few all time favorite Indian dishes also to try out as well.
– Drunken Serradurra: One of the highlighted and special desserts at The Bar and Eatery also famously known by its other popular name Sawdust Pudding. The Bar and Eatery version was a pudding with rum and coffee with generous coating of Marie Biscuit dust. Brilliant dessert.
– Baked Yoghurt: Served in pot coated with hard thick layer of caramelized sugar. Nice creamy and very thick consistency (had an aftertaste of the famous Bengali delicacy Sondesh). Portion size huge and enough to two.
– Paan Shot: Welcome drink served in shot glasses. Fiercely potent with vodka and pan flavors (not sweet). Loved it.
– Mai Tai Pitcher, The Zombie Maker, Watermelon Lemon Beer Cocktail and off the menu Naughty Barbie: As I was going to drive back home just had tasters of all the cocktails. I must say pretty wonderful mixes and good amount of alcohol in all the cocktails. Good colorful presentation. Going to go next time just for the cocktails.
All in all a wonderful food and cocktail tasting session. Interesting interaction with the owners, chef, and the whole team talking about the history, the hard work behind getting the menu and everything in place.
The Bar and Eatery is the hidden gem of Koregaon Park, quite underrated but definitely packs a punch.

While most of us are conscious about what we put into our bodies, many of us forget that what we put onto our skin is just as important.
Pick up any beauty product and take a look at the ingredients. Chances are you'll find a list of chemicals, longer than your forearm. We're just as guilty of this as anyone. We'll admit, we still use products we know contain artificial ingredients, because let's face it, finding good and affordable natural products can often be just as difficult as pronouncing the ingredients from those long lists! We 're far from completely eliminating the synthetic products from our beauty regime, but when we can, we try to make a conscious effort to be more mindful of what we're putting on our skin, and so we couldn't refuse Three Wise Mums' offer to trial some of their products.
Three Wise Mums is an Australian owned family business built on the philosophy of natural beauty. Their boutique range of skin and bath products combines the art of creating luxurious products with old-fashion beauty recipes. The botanical formulas are made entirely of natural ingredients derived from Mother Nature herself. Free of synthetic scents, fillers and chemicals, these products are ideal for a luxurious, guilt-free pamper.

A 2012 batch IAS officer who has been serving in the capacity of District Magistrate in Buxar, Assam has committed suicide. This has sent a shocker across the elite bureaucratic circle. He was speaking normally to his ailing father even few hours prior to taking this decision. He has also believed to have recorded a five minute video which is available with the authorities who are examining it.
IAS officer Mukesh Pandey who hails from Bihar has thought about committing suicide in Bihar itself, according to a video, in which he claims he was not happy with his life as there was some discord between his parents and his wife. Pandey has a humble background where hi better half ails from an affluent family.
The video was purportedly shot by Pandey himself at a circuit house in Buxar.
"I have made this plan that I will tell a lie and go to Delhi to commit suicide. Whoever finds this video, please inform my parents, wife, in-laws and relatives." he said. "Excess of anything leads a man to take extreme steps. My wife loves me a lot. I am fed up with life as I am a simple man. I have no pressure to commit suicide. I don't blame anyone for suicide. I am frustrated with life and don't think that we humans are contributing anything. We knit new webs each day. Earlier, I thought of moving to spiritualism, but I thought that a man should embrace death and finish this 'E-leela.' So I am taking this cowardly and escapist step. I have no wish to live" Pandey is seen saying in the video.
It is alleged that the IAS officer has not been given any respect whenever he visited his wife's place which may also have triggered to take the decision.

**this gem was solicited but never ran in an online mag.....
A recent piece in the New York Times perfectly articulates my distaste for the cult of busy. I've been gas lighting on this for a while, it always sits wrong with me when the response to "How are you?" is any variation on "Busy!" Clearly the word stands on for a host of virtues, martyrdoms, false advertising and smugness.
For me, busy-ness equates with some level of anxiety. When I think about it, the culprit of that anxious busy feeling is my smartphone. It's become a constant companion, balancing communication and scheduling with entertainment. But it is a tyrant. It demands to be checked within 5 minutes of awakening, and again at 10 minutes intervals throughout the day. Along with the smartphone came a host of social networking responsibilities that I embraced enthusiastically. Now and forevermore it seems a fraction--sometimes small, sometimes large--of my attention is always elsewhere—on tumblr, blogger, twitter or facebook. Email and text are a constant, minor distraction, like a mosquito always buzzing, just out of reach of the swatter.
The irony of this S+M phone love is that I have always hated the phone. I always looked at my landline as a necessary evil of sorts; I was not one who loved a lengthy chat or welcomed lots of aimless phone chatter. A phone was to report an emergency or arrange a meeting in person. Now, my brain is part wired to a constant unrelenting stream of trivial information. It does suck up a certain about of time that could be spent reading on the couch, but worse is the feeling that it's sucking up a great deal of not only time, but psychic energy.
|not a captain of industry over here
Facebook is a perfect example of a sort of mindless busywork, it must be checked at regular intervals, to learn the most mundane things that I would resent listening to in person. I would say a third of my FB friends are people I would not bother to acknowledge on the street. I know I am not unique in this regard. There is a kind of low grade mania attached to this perpetual distraction, as this piece explains well. To quote, "The computer is electronic cocaine for many people," says Whybrow. "Our brains are wired for finding immediate reward. With technology, novelty is the reward. You essentially become addicted to novelty." What could be more novel, or more distracting than twitter or tumblr?
The other day my cray sister tweeted to me a beautiful prophecy for the future: 'your whole life won't be controlled by twitter. Pretty soon they'll have u chipped and u'l see the screen inside yr eyelids'. The good news is I saw this today on the Guardian website. Let's all never have a quiet, private thought again shall we? I thank all the saints that technology is here to prevent us from having to dwell in the quiet of our own minds.
I've always been one to embrace leisure. For me, a big part of a life well lived is free time in abundance. The minute I feel overbooked, overworked, anxious and beholden to the expectations of others, I start to shut down. A big part of water cooler conversation involves weekend plans; my perfect weekend has NO plans. It seems people find that a little odd. To proclaim idleness, with pride, is something of an anomaly. The cultural messaging is perfectly clear on this point—the goal is perpetual motion, your time and energy must be tapped to the nth degree. If it is not, you might be flawed.
I've developed a Pavlovian response to proclamations of busy-ness. It has started to irritate me. Notice if you offer to help someone who claims the busy burden, often you simply can't. When you work, live and play in a state of constant distraction, it's not a simple matter to focus.
I have always had the radical idea that the measure of success was leisure. The picture of success is Beyoncé (and Blue Ivy, preferably) on a yacht, not Gordon Gecko screaming into a phone, forehead veins bulging ominously. Or do I have it wrong? The old "work hard, play hard" maxim seems to work for some; personally I'd rather work a little and relax a lot. I've constructed my life to have the perfect balance of work (rewarding, meaningful to me, ever changing often taxing) and the kind of 'play' that suits me (long evenings watching horror movies, long hours reading books that absorb me). It's a luxury, I guess but maybe not unique among childless adults. Still, the state of doing nothing, of leisure, of relaxing into an expanse of time with no pressing responsibilities or deadlines—it's heaven to me.
|this guy HATES being busy
If there is a particular kind of brain wave that sustains people and makes them feel good, it's not the one engaged in social networking, and it's not the one that goes by the term "busy". The one that recharges and relaxes you is the same one that's engaged when you spend time with friends/family, pet a dog, walk through a park (NOT looking at your phone dammit!), eat something awesome, do something creative, read in a warm bathtub. That's the brain I want, not the busy anxious one.
I will never complain to you about being "busy". Busy does not interest me at all; I will do everything possible to elude busy-ness, just short of throwing my phone under a subway.

Huge 'Thank You's to everyone leaving such encouraging comments on my relatively new crochet skills - I can't believe its only 8 months since I started hooking - once I got a rhythm I have had such fun! Please keep giving it a go if you would like to try..one day it might click!
A while ago I introduced these little feathery friends...
A while ago I introduced these little feathery friends...
and was quite amazed when someone requested the pattern! So Becky - here it is especially for you! Its the first time I have written my scrawly notes into something coherent for someone else to follow - so please let me know how it works!!
Random-Wooliness Owl pattern: UK terms
Start with a magic ring and chain 3. Now hook 14 Trebles into the ring and join with a slip stitch into the 3rd chain of the 3 chain. Pull on the short end to gently close the hole.
Chain 3 and join to the body with a slip stitch into the same stitch.
Slip stitch into the next 4 stitches. Chain 3 and join to the body with a slip stitch into the same stitch (ie 4th slip stitched stitch).
Finish off - I tend to use the wrong side as it has different texture, by giving the finished stitch a good pull as you wrap it round the back (in my case the right side!) you can create a notch similar to the one you have on the other side.
I have embellished mine with needlefelted features although felt or buttons may be used.
You may have noticed I like to add a splash of colour - this one is worked with 2 yarns on a bigger hook! Although the way the contrasting colours have worked makes his 'ears' a little quirky
I did experiment a bit with the ear - like bits - you could try just 3 slip stitches across the top to adjust the angle. I also tried a picot style but that owl would need to be a long eared one!!
......seen from a different angle they seem to shrink!
I am hugely aware of issues of copyright around blog-land and I'm sure whilst swooping around your brain picks up lots of images as you are browsing. As far as I know I have not seen an owl with the pattern above, however as it is so simple there may be others out there...hoot if you see one!
I have been doing loads of fiddling, with stitches, yarns, scribblings and patterns, learning a lot as I fumble about. I have always been a bit of a rebel when following instructions or counting (particularly in music) so its quite fun to make it up as I go along!!
I realise lots of talented people are working hard creating patterns to make an income - but for me, with my fledgling crochet skills its an amazing form of procrastination!

Criss-Cross is the result of five sessions with the ever-present Charlie Rouse on tenor plus the rhythm compliment of drummer Frankie Dunlop and bassist John Ore. It was recorded at a time when Monk had actually become a popular beat icon; his iconoclast mug appeared on the cover of Time barely a year later.
While the majority of the material here is Monk's, his whimsical way with the two standards, "Tea For Two" and "Don't Blame Me," makes them special treats. The former is like an old suitcase bursting at the seams with zany new toys, the melody rife with Monk's truncated chromatic tails, his solo chunky with erratic-sounding bass comping, all of it amusingly bookended by the tongue-in-cheek straightness of Ore's intro and Monk's final toy-piano notes. By contrast, Rouse stays true to the compartmentalized quality of the head on "Criss-Cross," blowing short, dense strands that sound like the flight path of a beatnik butterfly as Dunlop responds sympathetically, all the while maintaining a solidly swinging base. Criss-Cross is choice Monk finery.

Hey guys,
Has anyone here ever used python to produce data files which can be immediately read by excel? I thought at first if I just tab-delimited my data, I could copy and paste an entire data file into excel. This is not the case. When I take a tab delimited data set:
'hi' 'there' 'guys'
And copy/paste into excel, all of the data gets read into just one cell, instead of being split into three adjoining cells. I have no idea how to split my data correctly for excel. I am working with multiple rows and columns, and would like to be able to avoid the excessive copy and pasting column by column. Any advice?

Picture this: A mother parks her car in the parking lot of a supermarket and hops out to grab a few items. She ll only be gone a few minutes, so she leaves her baby in the backseat and cracks the front window. The child, too small to protest, doesn t even know what is happening. In a matter of minutes, the car begins to act like an oven. The lack of ventilation inside causes the temperature to increase twenty degrees for each ten minutes she is gone, even with a window slightly open. The child s cries remain unheard and fall silent once his body temperature reaches 107°F. How many infants and young children die each year due to the negligence of their parents? The answer is too many. No child deserves to die this way.

The apartments are mostly coming up in off-island locations, including Mohammed Bin Zayed City and Khalifa City, the company said in its latest third quarter report on the property scenario in Abu Dhabi.
This increase in housing supply in Abu Dhabi will result in landlords becoming more flexible with their pricing, Asteco points out in its report.
The research conducted by Asteco, which carries out market analysis, has also found that about 400 apartments will come on stream this month in the Abu Dhabi island, apart from the supply of apartments in Khalifa City A.
When the market faces increased supply, there will be more discounts on the offer, points out Elaine Jones, CEO of Asteco.
Currently people are more attracted to Dubai due to its cheaper rents and out of the perception that Dubai gives better value for money.
With better quality units being delivered in Abu Dhabi over the next 6 to 12 months, including Marina Square, Sun and Sky Towers, several daily commuters will consider these developments. Therefore, the prospective tenants will begin to target these developments against comparable properties in Dubai, particularly Dubai Marina, Jones said.
However, this aspect is not only the deciding factor to choose a location, Jones agrees. There are also other aspects to be taken into consideration such as giving notice to existing landlords, job issues, and schooling. Therefore, the market demand dynamics may not change until next summer, she points out.
Latest Asteco report states Khalidiyah and Corniche as the high-demand areas, although tenants have begun looking at development off Abu Dhabi island too.
Average rental rates on the Corniche for single, double and triple bedroom apartments are Dh.130,000, Dh.175,000 and Dh.220,000 respectively, down from their peaks of Dh.180,000, Dh.260,000 and Dh.350,000.
Developments with gymnasium and swimming pools have begun to command a premium and this is hoped to be the trend with the Marina Square, Meena Plaza and Capital Plaza coming online, the Asteco report said.
The report also highlights demand from small companies in the office market, increasing choice in Al Ain's residential market and expansion in the retail sector.

Additional committee members from Stevens or elsewhere may also be included.
Ph.D. candidates are required to have competency in using computer-based methods of calculation and analysis. Students lacking this competency are encouraged to take PEP 520 Computational Physics, or equivalent.
The Physics and Engineering Physics Department conducts formative research in cutting-edge areas such as quantum systems, nanophotonics, and optics.
Scientists are harnessing the enormous potential of graphene, uncovering methods to improve infrared detection.
Through optics research, researchers are creating advanced sensors to monitor the environment and innovative new optic fiber communication technology.
Stevens experts are tackling quantum science, which has the potential to change the landscape of science and technology.
"I liked working with Professor Strauf, because he gave me the freedom to choose my own research projects and encouraged me to explore the topics I find interesting."

- Additional Information
Two Poems by Norma Farber Poet, concert singer, actress, novelist, translator, wife, and mother of Thomas Farber, interviewed in this issue of Leviathan, Norma Farber (1909-1984) was author of more than thirty books and, for more than four decades, married to noted pathologist and professor Sidney Farber. Her poems appeared in The New Yorker, The Nation, and The New York Times. Here are the first and last poems from her collection Something Further . . . , published by Kylix Press (Ann Arbor, MI, 1979). Lagan Buried. But only to rise to the raising. Memory hitches a buoy to bottommost bales. They shall be treasure lifted by those coming after, as all loved time is resurrected by lovers, the deep divers. Our sunken hours lie safe at the end of cables. Stalwart swimmers shall hoist the blind trove to surface. Not jetsam excess of ballast. Not flotsam drifting fragmented. Not lost goods. So lowered, they wait. We left them to be found.

Newborn semblance of morning. Innocent leap of the future sun, stoked, oh yes, for our planet survival. You wear a daily mien of welcome. Night was another mask. Black, a belief in doldrum, dream, dim countenance, loss of name and sequence, entr'acte – slip me the wand to work a decorous lull, lest doubt, a dullness, spoil the paid attractions. Conspire in a show. Your fit disguise is price of admission. Lie in a costume suited to sleep. Then wake. Quick-change artist ready on cue. Time! A backstage warning. Break of day: you're on, fresh, keen-eyed, behind the slits. The Romans sometimes played without masks: the Greeks, never. You need protection against the fangs of light. Something thin as air and distance keeps you from being clawed. Keeps a rabble sun at bay. You're wearing safe 78 L E V I A T H A N T W O P O E M S distraction, keeping a guise of keeping charge. Provided you cause diversion – seem is. The world suspends denial: turns – by being entertained – accomplice. Hands you hats, scarves, rabbits, green-as-April prestidigitation. Volunteers to be halved. Trusts you to play the scene conventionally. Mayhem is out. Onstage illusion of mayhem triumphs. You'd never murder the sun. But you and sun and spectators collaborate as if. Midget as master. The game grows sleek as art. And who you are, is less than how you play. I know a perfect player. To her, that poignant trim mascara'd amazon, with breast, the amputee, deftly falsified, that flawless flow of dress, curve and curve, the health, the whole, the intact form simulated marvelously: to her, homage from all our unpretentious bodies.

The old skin splits, the flesh crawls away from cast-off husks. Insect behavior. Where's that insect essence? Too soon the new resembles the old skin. Feeding resumes. Any hour now nymphs will need to rupture another image. Herein if anywhere: definition, constancy, a constancy of change of terms. Tremulous program, subject to serial thrusts. And barely time to set the delicate new likeness before it looks of age. A confounding continuity. Most molting insects hide under stones, under cover, in the dark, against sunlight and natural enemies.

...Everyone has one, and they all stink. That's a bit of wisdom from the Gastronomical Dad, via the Marine Corps. It's funny, a bit crass, and quite true. It's my dad's birthday, and he himself is quite the food fiend. He introduced me to the wonders that are Coney Island hotdogs, which are not from Coney Island, as one might think, but from Detroit. Go to Athen's Coney in Southfield for a decadent treat: a wiener with all beef chili, spicy mustard and onion served in a hot dog bun. Eat with a fork. It's as awesome as it sounds and recently an editor at Saveur, my favorite magazine, caught onto this too.
My dad is the person who made me wait for blueberry pies after swim practice(so I could enjoy them properly). He has his own personal stash of artisan bread, has been known to bring home a box of cup cakes only to eat off all the tops before anyone else gets to them, and has an epic knowledge of place to get the best anti-pasta and other gourmet goodies. When he made us lunch, PB & J's were anathema--we all got salami sandwiches, sliced extra thick. If we were lucky, we also got a Ho-Ho tossed in alongside our apple.
My mom has waged a 25+ year war against him to eat more fruits and veggies--battle of the Asian diet versus American midwest, and while she's succeeded in part (he now craves edamame), his preferences still run towards kielbasa's and pastrami sandwiches given the opportunity. He's snuck away from business dinners while in NYC for work to go to the Astro diner so he could get a real sandwich and a proper Greek salad. He once gave our dogs rye bread for treats because he thought they might like the taste (he was right....they are now completely obsessed with it and go nuts the minute they here the distinct crinkle of the bag opening).
And despite his affinity for food of the Germanic-Polish-WASP persuasion going back to his childhood, we were eating sushi long before it became trendy in the 90's, he snarfs down Chinese food and was the one who discovered Pho soup, something that has been a staple of our family diet since I was in middle school. Afraid to try new things he is not, and there is another thing I share with my dad when it comes to food: a distrust and dislike of anything even resembling mayonnaise.
While his usual mantra has been cribbed from Garrison Keillor (Be well, do good work, and stay in touch) and other pithy Marine sayings aside, when I first moved to New York, he told me that there was simply no excuse not to eat well in the city. And he is right. There really isn't.

Because I don't have a lot of time to scrapbook, I really like to use the Workshops on the Go. All the thinking is done for me - all I have to do is add the photos and end up with a lovely layout. These photos are so precious to me because they are photos of my grandparents with Michael. They loved the little ones so much!
The colors in the Later Sk8r papers work perfectly with so many of the pictures I have of my boys when they were little. The Workshop on the Go made it easy because it includes the papers, embellishments, an exclusive stamp set, and instructions! The only things I added were photos, inks, and the Pennant Alphabet set.
