I heard tell of a "lost manuscript." It was said this manuscript told about an important era of Eastern Oregon history. And like a gold miner who hears about a lost mine, I became obsessed with finding this manuscript.
I made phone calls, chasing down any and all leads I happened to uncover. Some were disappointing dead ends, but I followed any slim possibility until I had collected enough reliable information that the urge to get going consumed me.
I threw together my camping gear, jumped in my pickup and started the hunt in earnest.
On the second day of my travels I unearthed the mother lode. The lost manuscript was in a cardboard box, 319 typewritten pages, yellowed and brittle with age. It had been hidden from the light of day for more than a half-century.
Will this lost manuscript became the basis of a book? I don't know.
Time will tell.

Parenting 101: Don't Say Don't!!
The toddler years are firmly upon us at our house, and Elliott is acting every bit of his nearly 2 years old! While a lot of this time can be lovely, a lot can be tumultuous. One thing that can be especially frustrating for tots is that their language and cognition skills have yet to catch up with their physical abilities, and their more grown up desires. This is one of the big things that leads to temper tantrums and "acting out" at this age. For a toddler, they are having the equivalent of an Italian vacation after having taken Italian 101 in high school. Even the things they do understand can be confusing when they are combined with things they don't understand. And imagine how frustrated you would feel if you were in Italy and everything you tried to tell someone was misinterpreted, or at least required lengthy clarification through gestures, limited words, and facial expressions!
There are some strategies to help children through this time, though. While it is important to use a broad vocabulary with children throughout their lives, when trying to negotiate a specific point with a toddler, use specific, simple words. Be clear and concise. Ask questions! Use gestures and show instead of just using words. Point at things and ask, "This one?"
Another really important point to remember is that the word "don't" is kind of lost on toddlers. Most of them are just cognitively not at the point of being able to register and understand this word in the early years. Plus, saying "Don't XYZ" doesn't tell them what they should be doing. Instead, as my children know well these days, tell them what you DO want them to do!
In fact, telling kids what you DO want is a good idea at every stage. Actually, it is just a good tip for communicating in general. Even my husband likes it when I tell him what I DO want him to do instead of just nagging about what I don't want him to do.
So, remember, don't say don't!!!

When heavy machinery such as cranes and tight construction schedules are involved, accidents are likely. Workers injured in these accidents may have legal rights to full and fair compensation, including workers' compensation and possibly damages from responsible third parties such as subcontractors.
At Brown, Moore & Associates, PLLC, our experienced attorneys represent workers throughout Charlotte and the surrounding areas, who have been injured in crane accidents.
The purpose of a crane is essentially to work on very tall buildings. The cranes increase in height as necessary, essentially causing both the operator and a worker in the safety harness to be in danger of falling a lethal distance. Crane accident injuries are almost always serious, if not fatal. Such injuries occur as the result of:
Recovering compensation for injuries sustained in accidents involving work injury and third-party negligence is usually complex. We begin by conducting in-depth research of the accident, investigation of any relevant accident history, and consultation with construction professionals. With this information and knowledge of these specific kinds of cases, we can recover damages through negotiation and litigation.
Our attorneys can help with:
If you were injured in a crane accident, call toll free 844-452-3688 or send us an e-mail to schedule a free and confidential consultation with one of our North Carolina litigation lawyers.


text: Duncan 1,777 Report post Posted December 31, 2011 In August in 2010, I imported a wagon from Australia. After looking here for a long time and finding nothing that I absolutely had to have, I took the plunge and brought this one over from Oz. It has dual Su's that were "Made in England" and had 4 bolt mounting plates on the carb. The previous owner decided to use them on the 2 bolt Datsun manifold. Obviously it hardly ran due to vacuum leaks, but I was able to find a stock manifold and got a Weber for it. It has a L20 with a std shift pattern 5 spd in it. I slapped a matchbox dizzy on it along with the carb, and it runs fairly well now. I drove it around for a bout a year while searching and collecting parts. Here's how I drove it for a year. A little background: When I was a kid, I had a pretty nice '49 Chevy 1/2 ton panel. I had put a small block Chevy in it, and changed out the entire drivetrain. I paid a shop $1000 to paint it (it was a SHITLOAD of money at the time) and I was so disapointed with the work, I ended up selling the truck over it. I vowed to NEVER have anyone paint ANYTHING for me again. There was a bodyshop down the street from my house and I begged them to let me work there, even for a few hours a day for free. I swept floors, and eventually started pulling dents, sanding filler, and eventually spraying primer and paint. I ended up working there for a few years. It was a good experience, and I learned what I wanted to. Here are my last two projects: '55 Caddie 2-door I did this one about ten years ago. I am an ex-professional guitarist and was working for Fender at the time, so of course I had a custom '55 Tele replica built, and I painted it along with the Caddie. It was in a few mags along with the Tele. I still have the Tele, but sadly, the Caddie is long gone. The Pantera: After doing my Caddie, my neighbor bugged the crap out of me for two years to help him do his Pantera. He helped me basically refurbish my entire house, and we painted his Pantera. The color doesn't come over on the computer very well, but it is '69 Camaro "Hugger Orange". The Pantera was very straight to begin with, but we spent 6 months of weekends doing prep which was tons of blocking to get it lazer-straight. It came out quite nice. Better than my Caddie, actually. After we painted it, my asked me if I'd help him to the engine compartment and I agreed. He pulled the motor and transaxle and had damn near everything polished. I spent about 4-5 weekends just making patch panels and/or welding up holes in the engine compartment. We shot it in a single stage black, and here are the results. He still has it. On occasion, he takes it out and every Pantera owner asks him about the paint. Seems that they are all red, white, black or blue. The car is Ferrari fast, but I'm a big guy and don't fit into it very well. It's awesome, but too small for me :) BTW, The Caddie and Pantera were mostly done at home. The Pantera door jams and engine compartment were done in my driveway. The local Jr College had a auto body class we took, only so we could use their paint booth. It was a crappy booth and if we prepped my garage, it would have been nicer :) My point is, this can be done by do-it-yourselfers and you don't need expensive high tech equipment. Okay, back to my goon: I noticed that the fenders didn't line up at all. I also noticed that the bolts that hold the fenders on were empty, and sheet metal screws were put into the areas between the bolt holes to hold the fenders on. That made me a little nervous, so I held my breath and yanked the fenders. Fortunately, the area under the fenders had been undercoated and there was no signs of rot or rust. It looked like the captive nuts that are used for the fender bolts were gone, so I tack-welded a couple of nuts on there for a temporary fix. to be continued.. 2 Share this post Link to post

Research Project Title: Dynamics of Deformed Beams // Linearization of Neural Networks
Deformation of Beams
Timoshenko beam deformation is widely considered an upper-division/graduate level topic in the study of beam deformation, while its counterpart, Bernoulli-Euler, is oftentimes taught in lower division undergraduate classes. The aim of our work is to generate Mathematica code to portray both static and vibrational deformation under both prevailing theories. Our intended goal is to create software that assists in the intuition and visualization of deformation under these theories in an effort to facilitate their instruction to an undergraduate audience. To that effect, we hope to publish our work on the Mathematica demonstrations site soon.
Linearization of Neural Networks
In practice, the functionality of Neural Networks is oftentimes abstracted to a form of linear regression. Our work aims to validate that abstraction by establishing an analytic map between the functionality of each layer in a Net and each successive independent function in a linear regressor. We hope that doing so can not only elucidate why Neural Networks work as well as they do, but also drastically reduce training and estimation times for small data-sizes. If successful, we hope to create linear predictors for stock-market data to validate the functionality of the regressor on highly-variable, real-world data.

|Maks show off his now furry nub.
If I am changing the bed linens, Maks contributes by leaping into the air many times and then rolling around in the very sheets I am trying to remove. So I remove Maks from the bed, but he leaps onto the bed yet again, rolls over on his back and waves all four legs in the air. He is sooooo happy! AND he's helping Mommy!
Maks wonders if he can steal Molly's food.
Molly stares at Maks, then enumerates all the dreadful things she will do to him,
if he so much as touches the remains of her food.
Maks slinks away.
But Maks' very favorite way to help Mommy is to watch the toilet flush! He stands on the toilet seat with his head in the bowl and closely watches the blue cleaner swirling down to the dark nether regions. What a wonderful time Maks is having!
However, Mommy is exhausted and retires to her big, comfy chair with her iced tea and the paper. Oh, good, now Maks can shred the newspaper while Mommy is reading it!
But old, wise Monty passes by and says, "Kid, don't even think about it." Maks recognizes the wisdom of this and decides to take a nap. Right next to Monty.

There aren't many hidden gems in London. News about new places spreads so quickly that it's difficult to come up with something that most Londoners don't know about. But then someone told me about Teanamu Teahouse in Notting Hill.
Run out of the proprietor's home, Teanamu is a tiny haven of tranquility and tea. It is located in the ground-floor living room of a white house with a quiet cobbled front garden. The space is simple, but elegantly decorated with beautiful teapots and a smattering of mismatched tables. An air of peace pervades. It is a rare find in central London.
I arrive with a friend, and we are seated at one of the tables. Behind us is the open kitchen where Pei and his assistant prepare the tea and food. There is only one other person there when we arrive, and the room is so quiet that we whisper for fear of disturbing the delicate ambiance.
The Teanamu tea menus are brought to us on tiny trays. Each tea is listed on a separate card, which offers a thorough description. I settle on a jasmine tea called Phoenix Eye Jasmine, but I am open to suggestions. When Pei comes to help us order, he chooses the same tea for me. It feels like fate. My friend decides to let him blend a tea for her based on her mood.
Our teas arrive, each one with its own pot. Pei explains to us how we should brew them, with instructions on water temperature, steeping time, and pouring. As we fumble around with the kettle, the jasmine pearls in my pot and the abundance of fruit and flowers in my friend's start to unfurl and release their flavors.
We order food to go with our tea, and soon the savory dishes arrive. They are sticky rice served in a large leaf, and a delicious dumpling with a hot chili pepper on top. Both are excellent, and I want more. Teanamu Teahouse in Notting Hill might just be my new favorite place for afternoon tea in London.
Then dessert comes. Five tiny pastries are arranged on a plate. Everything from chocolate truffles made from cream cheese to traditional Chinese pastries with puffy crusts is present. There is even a scone on the plate, but it is paired with rose jam instead of the traditional English flavors.
Teanamu's pastries are as good as the savories. We sit sipping our tea as we enjoy the food, and Pei tells us about his cooking classes and tea appreciation courses. My friend is so excited that she makes a reservation for the following weekend. She wants to introduce more friends to this unique place.
Before we leave Pei sits down at a table by the wall and brews a special tea. His technique is impressive, and puts my awkwardness with the kettle to shame. Once the tea is brewed, he brings a cup for each person in the room, which by this time has filled up and become slightly more voluble than when we arrived.
We sip. We savor. We say good-bye. We know that we will be back to Teanamu Teahouse in Notting Hill, and we hope that in the meantime our hidden gem isn't discovered by too many people. Don't tell your friends.
10 Comments on Lady at Teanamu Teahouse
What a neat little spot! I am loving your food photography.
Sounds great! Have you been to Postcard Teas at all? Very similar in that you don't really want to tell people about them but you do anyway because they deserve it.
What a fabulous looking hidden gem!!! Word will spread fast I'm sure.
Great review, your writing is very good and deserves more than a blog post really! Your photos really give the post an air of quality.
This sounds like an Interesting little place and worthy of your interesting and detailed review. Good work! 😀
Looks fabulous! But now you've gone and told the world about it.. 😉

Bargain price if all materials are complete. Intuitive 'pilot's approach' to learningCons
Customer service issues are considerable. Trouble with downloading, contacting owner, delivery of material.Verdict
Check with FAA or your flight school to ensure you're buying accurate and up to date materials. Could be a real bargain but could be a frustrating waste of time and money.
Complete Private Pilot (by Bruce Hogan) - REVIEW
So so tempting.
But as we know (or think we know...) so expensive.
Learning to fly an aeroplane is certainly a commitment. And it's not just all those hours up in the air training, but you also have to complete comprehensive written exams, with study completed at groundschool.
Which can cost almost as much as those expensive (but exhilarating!) hours in the air.
And its the groundschool exams that Bruce 'Flyboy' Hogan's Complete Private Pilot training course is intended to help you with.
'The easiest way to obtain your pilot license,' he says.
In 30 days or less (no less).
Bruce says that flying has always been in his blood. As a passionate young boy 'piecing together rickety old contraptions' to a United Airlines pilot.
His career includes owning a flight school and training hundreds of Private Pilots, Instrument Ratings Commercial Pilots, Airline Transport Pilots and Flight Instructors.
As a certified instructor in both single engine and multi engine aircraft his credentials appear good.
And now he has created, 'the first course to provide the student pilot with a true "real world" perspective of what learning to fly is really all about.'
The package contains video explanations, 'the best' illustrations and diagrams, the actual FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) exam study pack, private pilot syllabus tests and study guides.
Promoted as a complete ground school course; the package covers both helicopters and fixed-wing licenses and comes in an interactive CD format. Plus tuition in Navigation, Meteorology, Aviation Law, Wind, Aircraft checks and jargon!
Bruce promises instant access to everything you need to fully prepare you for your first flight and, 'virtually guarantee your success in learning to fly.'
At $37 (limited time offer) this certainly appears like an amazing deal.
I have taken my private pilot's license through attending groundschool and buying all the materials from the FAA. So I know how much this material costs and it is considerably more than $37.
Which does, to be honest, make me suspicious.
If you read the small print it becomes clear that the format of the package is in a download.
Well it would have to be a mammoth download to be equivalent to all the materials I bought when I was studying for the private pilot groundschool exams.
However Bruce 'Flyboy' has some convincing testimonials on his site. He also emphasizes his 'intuitive' pilots approach which (according to him) gives added value to his material.
But searching further it seems that my skepticism was justified.
One person clearly hadn't read the small print - but had believed that the nice illustrations of books and manuals on the website meant you would be buying real books and manuals...
'They lead you to believe that they are mailing you this full training package only to find out you have to download the whole thing in a non-comprehensible format that makes little sense on how to approach the training. Most of the files are from the FAA which you can get for free and 6 items of the package had damaged files.'
So the first thing to do for all you aspiring eagles out there is to check what is available free from the FAA!
There are also some very unhappy customers who never received their training packages.
'I ordered the Complete Private Pilot Training Course online on Sept. 23, 2010. On Oct. 25, 2010, I submitted a ticket via the trellis desk support page. The response was a message telling me the the order had shipped 2 days after I ordered it and to wait a week or so... I am still waiting for a resolution. I was charged $67 on Sept. 23, 2010 but I still don't have anything to show for it. Google "Bruce Hogan" and see what you get.'
Which you should do before spending any money on this package.
Other customers have also reported trouble contacting Bruce Hogan if there are issues.
But Bruce does have some supporters.
'Bruce has amassed a tremendous amount of material sourced from FAA handbooks, his personal experience, FAA Written Exams and more... I don't know if I can recommend new flyers undertake traditional ground schooling anymore... it might just be a waste of money.'
So some people are convinced that Bruce's material is an adequate replacement for the official books and study guides - the ones without Bruce's 'personal touch.'
However I would highly recommend you checking out the FAA training manuals and study packages. I know from experience that their material is professional, comprehensive and accurate. I also know that the groundschool exams are not easy and you may require the assistance of a teacher to help you with some of the content.
Bruce Hogan's material is a bargain if it is comprehensive and complete - but the customer service issues noted by customers are significant.

|Humor is more than just a funny face!
My hope is that you go through these blog posts and the descriptions intrigue you enough to click on the blog posts and get inspiration on how to get your students to laugh a little and relax enough to really learn.
Enjoy :-)
1. Nick has an amazing collection of comedic sketches on YouTube. His contribution to the blog carnival is a list of DOs and DON'Ts when using these clips in the classroom. He uses several examples on different occasions these clips fit well in class and I am sure you'll be excited about using some of them in your classroom. Read more: Using "COMEDY FOR ELT" clips

6. I am a huge fan of using short videos in class! The Alltac blog has a great lesson using a funny video about students taking a make-up exam. In addition to the video being funny there are two pages of teachers notes. One page gives you ideas of how to incorporate the lesson, and the other page gives you materials for an activity. See the video and read more at the Alltac Blog.
"Laughter is the best medicine." (Be sure you check out the cheer-leading video at the bottom of her post! It makes me smile every time!)
8. Roberta wrote a great post for World Laughter day back in May. She goes through the reasons humor is great in class (I agree with every single one of them!), as well as some sites that you can use to find jokes. Finally she goes through a simple way to use jokes in the class that could be adapted to work with so many different levels. World Laughter Day

I am currently lounging around my apartment on Saint Mary's Street after a long morning of errands. I have Yojimbo, one of my favorite samurai movies, playing on VHS in the background. I'm going to a Devils vs. Bruins hockey game tonight, so I am too excited to do my laundry.
Tomorrow I have nothing better to do then to make tofu scrambles with Jeff and make him play hooky.

Let's get serious.
Ok, I've been wanting to get serious about putting my images up on a website-thingy for quite sometime now.
So, for this new year, let's make it happen. Together. Hands across America.
Also, I am planning on self- publishing a comic book/zine pretty soon (as soon as I get some cash that is), and handing it out to places such as Comicopia in Kenmore Square and Million Year Picnic in Harvard Square. So, keep your eyes peeled. I'll probably be selling them for $8 each, but I am only publishing 15 for each volume I make. So, it's like fine art... Xeroxed.
Ali Jersey, signing off.

The average investor is baffled when they learn that the financial markets are improving even as the unemployment rate continues to rise.
After all, both current Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and his predecessor Alan Greenspan have stated in the past week that the unemployment rate is likely going to 10 percent or more. So why wouldn't markets tank upon hearing that?
It's because the job market lags the economic cycle, and the economic cycle lags the financial market cycle.
Employers won't immediately start a hiring spree even though they see initial signs of improvement in their businesses because they don't know yet if it will hold steady or not.
Therefore, business improves for a while first, and then hiring happens.
However, even before this economic recovery happens, savvy investors buy up bargains when they think no one else is aware yet of the imminent recovery and they're still too scared to go in and buy stocks again.
If cautious investors go in and buy stocks after the economy shows sure signs of recovering, then the best pricing is gone and so are the better percentage returns.
So, savvy investors are buying up stocks and foreign currencies while everyone else is still skittish. This is how they beat the average investor.
As stocks improve, you'll also see pairs like GBP/USD mimic the recovery in stocks.

Miss Wheeler responded and displayed that she does not seem to understand that by writing a blog called Thoughts on Liberty, she is representing the libertarian brand. I listed off the sources that she should be familiar with if she wants to represent this brand. Furthermore, I outlined a type of argument that she, as a brand bearer, should be making. I don't think she picked up my point as she didn't mention anything that I suggested that she read. Instead, she digs her heels in further.
Finally, I have been criticized for using academic research published by the Fed. However, the same people who reject the Fed's research could be said to have an ideological bias, but that doesn't warrant the dismissal of their research. I see no reason why both are not equally credible. Unless the critics can demonstrate a particular issue with the methodology used in the research, I will stand by its validity. However, if the research I originally cited isn't enough to convince you of the pitfalls of allowing more congressional influence over monetary policy, here is another academic paper that explains how greater independence helps minimize political pressures and points to the supporting body of research, such asCukierman [sic] (1992) , Fischer (1995) , and Maloney, Pickering, and Hadri (2003). In fact, when the IGM Panel of Economic experts was surveyed regarding a similar bill, 70% disagreed with the idea that this type of audit would improve the Fed's legitimacy without hurting its decision making.
Comments like this make me think that Thoughts on Liberty should just be called, Thoughts. Sourcing her argument is an improvement, but falls short of the mark. Again, if you adopt the libertarian brand, which Miss Wheeler and the other blogger at Thoughts on Liberty have done, you need to do a good job of representing the school of thought. If you disagree, that is okay, but you need to demonstrate that you are familiar with these ideas. Again, I invite the girls at Thoughts on Liberty to take a look at my citations from last post. As libertarians, I'm sure they will find the literature appealing. I hope that any libertarian interested in economics spend time sifting through the sources I use throughout my posts.

I was distinguished researcher of the month January 2018 of the Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU):
Press Article (German and English version available): Prozesse in Unternehmen schneller, einfacher und besser erklären
Researcher of the month 01/18: Kathrin Figl
Warum verstehen Menschen Prozesse besser, wenn diese als Modelle (statt in Textform) vorliegen und welche Auswirkungen hat das auf die Ideenfindung?
Posted by
WU (Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien) on Dienstag, 2. Januar 2018
About Me
My name is Kathrin Figl. I am Full Professor for Information Systems at the
Department of Information Systems, Production and Logistics Management at the University of Innsbruck. I hold a venia legendi for Information Systems from the WU – Vienna University of Economics and Business, where I have worked as an Assistant Professor at the Institute for Information Systems and New Media. Previously, I have worked at the University of Vienna in the Business Information Systems department as well as in the department of Research Methodology and Differential Psychology. I was also a visiting research fellow with the Business Process Management group at the Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. I received my doctoral degree (Information Systems in 2008, with honors, awarded with the Dr. Maria Schaumayer Prize) and two master's degrees (Information Systems in 2004 and Psychology in 2006, both with honors) from the University of Vienna.
My main research areas are human-centered development and design of information systems. While earning my doctorate, I focused on social computing, e-learning, and teamwork in the information systems field. For my post-doctoral thesis (habilitation) I started a second research stream in the areas of business process management and visual languages as a cognitive tool. I am especially interested in evaluating conceptual modeling languages and methods and investigating human interaction with models (e.g., (business) process models, feature models). My research agenda for the coming years will focus on cognitive effective design of information systems (e.g. digital nudging by user interface design, cognitive heuristics…) as well as information system management and digital innovation (e.g. crowd sourcing).
A strong believer in empirical research, I conduct relevant and rigorous controlled experiments and questionnaire-based studies to test theory-based hypotheses and to contribute to theory development in the information systems field. My work has been published in journals such as the Journal of the Association for Information Systems, Decision Support Systems, Information & Management, Business & Information Systems Engineering, Requirements Engineering, the AIS Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction and the International Journal of Human-Computer Studies and in leading conference proceedings (e.g., Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAISE), International Conference on Conceptual Modeling (ER), European Conference of Information Systems (ECIS), Internationale Tagung Wirtschaftsinformatik (WI)).
Three of my papers won Best Paper Awards at international conferences (the ACM Software Product Line Conference, the International Conference on e-Learning, and the World Conference on Educational Media & Technology) and I was awarded the 'Excellent Teaching Award' from the Vienna University of Economics and Business for my course on information systems.
Regarding project funding, I was awarded the Dr.-Maria-Schaumayer Research Grant 2014/2015 by the Austrian Nationalbank (OeNB) for my project on 'Cognitive Effectiveness in Business Process Modeling' (in the amount of €55.000) and I have attracted funding for my research projects "Investigating Flow Direction of Business Process Models with Eye Tracking" and "Creative Business Process-Redesign" and a Visiting Fellow Scholarship from WU Vienna (in the amount of €11.600).
I serve on the editorial board of the Journal of Information Systems Education and I am a reviewer for several journals, including Business & Information Systems Engineering (Wirtschaftsinformatik), Journal of the Association for Information Systems, Decisions Support Systems, Information Systems, Data & Knowledge Engineering, Software and Systems Modeling, ACM Transactions on Computing Education and Communications of the Association for Information Systems. In addition, I served as chair for the track "Human-centric Information Systems Design and Development" at MKWI 2018 and as associate editor for the Wirtschaftsinformatik conference 2017 and ICIS 2018 .

In May, two months after Fox announced it would reboot "The X-Files," Gillian Anderson appeared onstage with David Duchovny during his band's show at the Cutting Room in New York City. Pictures were taken of the costars embracing and having a quick kiss. When I saw those pictures, I squealed and Googled their current marital statuses — because I wanted them to date.
I know the reaction was silly and misguided; what I really want is for their characters, Fox Mulder and Dana Scully — who return Sunday at 10 p.m. on Fox — to be in love. Based on the very little I know about the personal lives of Duchovny and Anderson, there is no reason for them to be a couple. But there is a part of my brain that likes the idea of it — the same part that was thrilled when I first read that "Twilight" stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were dating in real life.
I'm not the only person who feels a strange desire to want actors who play couples to fall in love off-screen. Fans like to fantasize about this kind of thing, and it's one of the most common (and mindless) questions asked of actors who play lovers. A few weeks ago, "Outlander" stars Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe — who share steamy, naked scenes as Claire Beauchamp and Jamie Fraser on the Starz time travel show — were asked by E! whether they were together in real life.
"We're not together. . . . I'm sorry to break people's hearts," the actress answered. "They like to try to maybe replicate the Claire and Jamie story. But I think it would be difficult for us to work together and be together."
Heughan added, "Because I think people buy into the show and us saying it's not real, they feel like they've been duped. It's like, 'You acted it. You lied to us!' And I'm like, 'Well, sorry!'"
Maybe we fans and reporters fall back on this question again and again because we're not actors, so we can't imagine kissing our co-workers. Maybe we just don't understand how faking attraction can be part of a job.
But according to experts, we might also long for these stars to be together because of our brains and how we process information.
Uri Hasson, associate professor in the psychology department and Neuroscience Institute at Princeton University, explains that when you experience something in real life, you process the information in a specific part of your brain. You use that same part of your brain to process an experience when it is explained or simulated for you.
"We like stories and movies because we like to experience simulations. [Television and films] simulate for us what could happen."
Our brains should know the difference between truth and fiction, but if we process simulations the same way we do experiences, falling for a fictional couple onscreen might trigger the desire for the simulation to become real, he says. It's a jump, but it's possible.
Mark J. Williams, associate professor of film and media studies at Dartmouth College, says that the desire could be biological, but he thinks it's more cultural. He understands that there's an instinct to "ship" (a verb of recent coinage: the act of wanting two characters/people to be in a relationship). But he says that my "shipping" not just, say, "Moonlight" characters David Addison and Maddie Hayes, but also actors Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis, might have been about my need for narrative closure.
Maybe I want "Sherlock" stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman to fall in love, or am excited that "The Americans" stars Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell are together, because the couplings are an extension of what I (and other fans) have defined as an appropriate ending.
He also says that I might root for these real-life couples on television or in film franchises such as "Twilight" — as opposed to stand-alone movies — because I've spent so many hours watching the same actors play the same characters.
"The amount of time that's involved ... you start to wonder if there's another level to this relationship," Williams said.
He also brings up social media. These days, actors often have an online persona. Some of them live-tweet their own television shows. That makes the lines even blurrier.
Ken Feil, senior scholar-in-residence in Emerson College's Department of Visual & Media Arts, explains via e-mail that the answers to the real-life shipping might lie in Richard Dyer's 1986 book "Heavenly Bodies."
Feil says Dyer writes "that we love stars devotedly and enduringly due to the fact that they repair a sense of fragmentation in our lives caused by modernity. We all have a public self and a private self, very useful to be sure in terms of organizing our lives and identities (work versus home, for instance), yet also a cause of anxiety and confusion over the sense of being split: Which self is the 'real' one? Is there a 'real' me?"
Feil continues, "Stars help repair that existential fragmentation because their stock-in-trade is the demonstration of the private self on a the most public platform of mass culture. As a logical extension, we desire stars to merge public and private further by collapsing their public selves with their private selves."
He theorizes that this could be why I'm so bummed when I find out costars don't even like each other.
"Is it disappointing because it reminds us of our own fragmentation?" he asks.
Of course, this desire to see actors together might just be about the wish for fiction to come true. Hasson says that's a strong possibility — that perhaps I wanted Stewart and Pattinson to be together because if their love was real, maybe hot vampires could be, too. And in the case of "The X-Files," if Anderson and Duchovny can fall in love, maybe Mulder and Scully could exist. Maybe the truth is out there.
As Hasson puts it, "You want to believe."Meredith Goldstein can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

So you take very decent photos and your friends, and even strangers, love your work. Armed with an arsenal of compliments you figure it is time to sell your work to the public at large. Is being good, good enough to be successful? The answer is a resounding "no" and there is a number of reasons why.
Is your work distinguishable from the crowd of other photographers?
If it isn't then you better work hard to give people a reason to choose your work over another's because when a person sees your work they shouldn't get your work confused with somebody elses Look around at the work people do in the area that you plan to sell. See what themes and subjects are popular.You may find certain themes are popular and that may be an avenue to pursue. But don't copy the work of the countless photographers who shoot that (whatever). Instead find your own individual way to shoot the subject or theme.
Do people want to hang it up in their home?
As I learned the hard way, just because people love your pictures, even the point of remarking and asking questions about your particular work, that does not mean they want to hang your pictures on their walls. If I had a dollar for every time somebody told me "I sure do love your work" I would be wildly successful (actually that is a bit of and exaggeration). But looking strictly at art print sales, while I do sell, it isn't in high enough volumes to even be considered mildly successful. . I think part of the issue is this: while we tend to think of pictures as art, in the mind of the buyer it is really just décor." People purchase photography to accent a room rather than to accent an emotion.
How do you plan to market yourself?
Artwork, even photography, does not sell itself. It requires more than just posting some pictures on the web. The "if I post it, they will come" attitude will net you a big fat NOTHING. Even putting your work in busy venues may not offer much in the term of sales either. Selling your work means selling yourself. That doesn't mean that you must greet every person you meet with an elevator speech, but it does mean that you need to play an active role in promoting you and your work.
My biggest "market" is the people I know. I never push my products or services on them but they know about my work and I find ways to display my work in a non-pushy way. This ranges from posting pictures on Facebook to bringing new prints into work. Seek out even simple opportunities to promote your work.
Is your work exceptional?
There are plenty of good photographers out there. Technology has removed some of the barriers of entry and reduced the learning time for dramatically improving one's photography. If you work is only good, you need to rethink entering into this business until you improve, especially regarding fine art. There is no room for mediocrity.

The Screenwriters Colony Announces Its 2014 Writers in Residence
The Screenwriters Colony is thrilled to announce this year's participants for its 12th annual residency-mentorship retreat. LILY BALDWIN, SARAH ADINA SMITH and ANDREAS TROLF have been selected to join the Nantucket Film Festival's Tony Cox Screenplay Competition winner CLARK CARROLL for the month-long intensive program on Nantucket island.
LILY BALDWIN will be working on GLASS, a true-crime thriller about a schizophrenic stalker and a dancer in our privacy-gone world. Baldwin, who is based in New York City, Los Angeles and Berlin, had her short film SLEEPOVER LA screened at the 2014's SXSW Film Festival and Berlinale EFM while her earlier short film SEA MEADOW was shown at film festivals, art fairs and museums. This year, she began a new short film series, THE PAPERBACK MOVIE PROJECT. GLASS, her first feature film, also was selected this year for the Independent Film Week's Emerging Storytellers program.
CLARK CARROLL will be working on his as-yet-UNTITLED script about a suburban high school senior and drug addict, whose parents commit him to a dual diagnosis psychiatric hospital where he's forced to confront himself and the world around him. Carroll won this year's Showtime's Tony Cox Screenplay Competition at the 2014 Nantucket Film Festival for his coming-of-age script EARLY PLUS INFINITY. Last year he was a finalist in the drama category at the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition. Carroll also has co-authored several books on the Hawaiian Islands for Lonely Planet.
SARAH ADINA SMITH will be working on JONAH, which is about a fugitive mountain man who retreats deeper and deeper into his brain, and a fisherman who survives being lost at sea who meet in a spiritual wormhole where only one can survive. The Los Angeles-based filmmaker recently directed her first feature THE MIDNIGHT SWIM, which premiered at the Fantasia Film Festival. She previously co-wrote and produced the feature GOODBYE WORLD and made the award-winning short THE SIRENS. Her script THE COLONY, a Nicholl Fellowship semi-finalist, is scheduled to be shot in June, 2015.
ANDREAS TROLF will be working on SON OF NO RESPECT, a story of a 45-year-old burnout who believes his free ride with his father is over so he decides to live it up one more before killing himself. Trolf is the co-creator, writer, and co-executive producer of the Nickelodeon TV series SANJAY AND CRAIG. An author and music video director, he recently co-wrote and directed the short film THE OPPOSITE OF PEOPLE. Trolf, who is represented by Dan Shear at WME, is a member of both the Television Academy and the Animation Guild.

Sunward reports Colombia Results of 0.56 g/t Gold, 0.12% Copper over 315.2m
Sunward Resources Ltd TSXV:SWD announced assays from its Titiribi Project in Antioquia Department, Colombia. Highlights include
0.56 g/t gold and 0.12% copper over 315.2 metres
(including 2.11 g/t gold and 0.34% copper over 22.5 metres)
0.36 g/t gold and 0.24% copper over 135.5 metres
(including 0.54 g/t gold and 0.32% copper over 55.8 metres)
0.33 g/t gold and 0.15% copper over 66.6 metres
0.72 g/t gold and 0.01% copper over 27 metres
0.47 g/t gold and 0.01% copper over 30 metres
1.88 g/t gold and 0.01% copper over 7.5 metres
COO David Forest tells ResourceClips.com, "These results were fairly groundbreaking for the project because it's a bulk-tonnage porphyry, so the assumption was the grade was always around 0.5 and 0.2. We smashed through that about a year ago, discovering some zones that were above a gram, but this is the first time zones above two grams have been discovered, making a new benchmark for the grade on this project.
There's nothing on the planet with that kind of potential that's so underexplored. Nothing happened there for 50 years. It's phenomenal terrain, completely underexplored—David Forest
"We're up to nine rigs now, and we're expecting to go to 11 over the next couple of months. The company's well financed; we've done some big financing over the last year and a half, so we're going to push it pretty hard. We raised $51 million in January, and last April we did $25 million, and in total the company's raised over $80 million," Forest says.
"We were looking at doing a scoping study, but now that we've discovered these higher-grade zones, the feeling is we might do more drilling and figure out what we've got before we start wrapping economics around it. So at this point, the plan is mostly just drill. This area that was reported on today is just one of seven anomalies on the project, five of which we're testing right now, and some of which are being tested for the first time. So we've got a lot to do on the drilling front. We'll work on expanding the resource, then we'll decide what we want to do on the economic side.
"The infrastructure is excellent," he adds. "We're 70 kilometres from Medellin on a four-lane paved highway. It's a historic mining area, so there's power to the site. We're very well positioned.
"We love working in Colombia. Geologically, there's nothing like it. There's nothing on the planet with that kind of potential that's so underexplored. Nothing happened there for 50 years. It's phenomenal terrain, completely underexplored. The security and safety situation is fine in 90% of the country now. Just last weekend, they got rid of the leader of the FARC [Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia leader Guillermo León Saenz AKA Alfonso Cano], so the FARC is on its last legs, even in the few outlying areas where it does still operate.
"Titiribi is probably one of the best operating environments in Colombia. It's in Antioquia, which has very strong rule of law and tradition of order. We don't have any security at site. The infrastructure's excellent."
Referring to the company's other project, Forest says, "Murindo-Mande Norte is at the other end of the spectrum. It's the only part of the Cordillera, from Alaska down to Tierra del Fuego, that doesn't have a road going through it, because it's basically swamp. Access is tough. There's a number of issues including FARC and indigenous groups. If you can name an issue in Colombia, that region's got it. The prize, if and when we can get in there, is enormous. It's an anomaly the size of Yaletown [a high-density Vancouver neighbourhood], with copper sticking out of the ground. For 30 years, everybody's known about this unbelievable anomaly, but it's remained a place where nothing happened. We're working on getting in there and, if we can, it'll be a lot of fun."
He concludes, "The company's well-financed through our affiliations with the Electrum group and Paulson & Co out of New York. Those guys own a big chunk, and management owns 30%, so it's a very tightly controlled company. Amongst the top 10 shareholders, we control 70% or 80% of the company now. All the people working on this are shareholders and are working alongside the other shareholders."

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone's had a wonderful December 25th. My day has been really great so far, and I am so happy for the time away from work to relax and spend with my family. My sister and I woke up bright and early like little kids to open our gifts. I got a lot of really fantastic things (I'll make a separate post for those, don't worry!) and got a chance to give the perfect gifts to my family too. It's always really nice when you know you've hit the nail on the head, so to speak, and they really, genuinely love what you got for them.
Here are a couple photos of the day so far ...
My little glittery swan. I bought a lot of sparkly, white, feathery, la-dee-da ornaments this year. I love this little guy. He's so graceful, and I'm a big fan of swans.
Our tree! It looks like a wedding cake, doesn't it? I call it "the cake tree" and my mom gets so offended but I think it's a compliment!
Ah, my main gift. A Crosley 'Keepsake' turntable. It has a USB port so you can convert all your vinyl to mp3s. Thus, I can bring my clunky, dusty records into the 21st century (and the end of the aughts! The beginning of the second decade of this new millennium, ah!), and put them on my iPod for portable convenience. Paul and Art approve, I'm sure.
My place setting - fancy, eh? I bought those little crackers for everyone. They were fun, but so tiny! Mine had a joke inside (in French, that really did not translate well), and a little butterfly clip for your hair, ha. Everyone else got keychains. The bottles are the special-edition Evians designed by Christian Lacroix, they look so pretty on the table. Definitely something you can keep as a memento afterwards, my sister said she'll be using hers as a vase. We also had a really amazing bottle of cranberry-apple Chardonnay gifted to us, so delicious.
Another table shot.
Being a big dork, here's my Christmas outfit. Vintage dress from Small Earth Vintage on Etsy, with Ellen Tracy tights, Alfred Sung Pure ruffled cardigan and my Christmas cracker crown. I love the cardigan, I got it as a gift today and it's got the nicest details. The ruffled pleats down the front are in this stiff grosgrain ribbon and the buttons are kind of pearly. I wanted more sweaters (you can never have enough), and I love when they have fun little details like that.
And again, being a dork. I guess I was keeping an ear out for the Christmas songs I could hear on the radio ... like BTO's "Takin' Care of Christmas" ... so awful.
So, how was everyone's holidays? I hope they were wonderful, that you were with the people you love, that you got everything you wished for, and that you stuffed your tummy with delicious food! I certainly did.
Well, I'm off to eat pie, watch a Christmas Story, and then play the Lost board game with my family. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.

However, homeowners are chosen without regard to race, creed, or nationality - following all the requirements of the law as well as Habitat's belief that God's love extends to all. Habitat also welcomes volunteers from all faiths - or no faith - who actively embrace the goal of eliminating poverty housing from the world. To view our non-proselytizing policy, visit our About page.

Habitat also advocates for more affordable housing to local governments in Waukesha County's communities.
Yes! Although Waukesha County is a richer county than surrounding areas, this is exactly why there are housing issues in the county. Land and cost of living is more expensive, leaving thousands of low-wage earners struggling to get by.
Habitat of Waukesha County has a variety of ways for you to volunteer, to participate in events, and to provide financial support. If you can't find what you're looking for on the website, please call our office at 262-309-6025 or email email@example.com for specific inquiries.

Click to viewDisappointed in the TV movie revamp of Knight Rider that aired earlier this year? You weren't the only one; Gary Scott Thompson, the executive producer of the new series that spins out of that backdoor pilot, feels your pain, and he has some ideas about how to make the new new version of the show work for the 21st century.
We've already told you that Mike Tracer will be an Iraq War vet in the new series, but that's not the only way in which reality will invade the next generation of Knight Rider, as Thompson explains:
The world has changed completely... We live in a world where two wars are going on, and there is terrorism. It's not as simple as it was in the early '80s, when you just go and get the drug dealer down the street. There is a much larger threat out there.
Yes, that's right; this time around, Mike and his transforming car will shun the war on drugs for the war on terror, which is apparently much less simple and infinitely more relevant. Here's hoping that Knight Industries will end up being less vaguely defined as Bionic Woman's Berkut Group, which also seemed to include "fighting terrorism" alongside "rebuilding women in terrible traffic accidents" in its increasingly broad charter. But that's not the only way in which Thompson plans to draw in the new generation:
I went back and watched the original series, the first season, and asked, 'What's the mythology? Where are we going, and how do we create this 25 years later?' It's been all about taking the concept to the next level... [At the Knight Rider Comic-Con panel,] we were in the room when the car transformed, and the kids went crazy. I think we are doing the right thing.
Yeah! Those kids love those transforming cars! Awesome!
Luckily, there is one area where Thompson has things right:
I was brought in after the movie to create the series, but what I found was that fans missed certain things — like the turbo boost and the interaction [between Mike, played by Justin Bruening, and K.I.T.T., voiced by Val Kilmer].
Yes. Scrap terrorist fighting, scrap transforming. Just give us turbo boost and caustic cars nannying their drivers and you've got all the ingredients you need for a successful Rider.
The new series debuts on NBC on September 24th.

Migration Requirements
This migration is optional. However, if you already have WSUS installed in your environment, you should perform this migration to preserve your settings and avoid downloading large amounts of unnecessary data.
If you already understand what this migration covers, advance to Step-by-Step Migration later in this document.
Preparing for the migration
Before you perform this migration, complete all of the tasks in the Configuration and Migration Tasks checklist that is displayed by your Windows® Essential Business Server Administration Console.
These include running the following wizards:
- System Center Essentials Feature Configuration Wizard
- System Center Essentials Computer and Device Management Wizard
When you run the Computer and Device Management Wizard, it discovers existing computers in your network and installs management agents on them. Computers with management agents installed are subsequently managed by System Center Essentials.
- System Center Essentials Update Management Configuration Wizard
When you run the Update Management Configuration Wizard, it configures update settings. This creates a Group Policy object (GPO) that instructs Automatic Updates to obtain updates from the Management Server (where WSUS is installed). This GPO is applied only to computers that are managed by System Center Essentials.
When you perform this WSUS migration, the existing WSUS server settings overwrite the products and classifications that you chose in the Update Management Configuration Wizard.
Time estimate
- Three hours if you are migrating from WSUS 3.0
- Six hours if you are migrating from WSUS 2.0
The majority of this time is the import tool performing automated processing, so the amount of time that you need to spend performing manual steps is considerably less.
Because this migration puts heavy CPU load on your existing WSUS server and the Windows EBS Management Server, it is recommended that you perform this migration at a time when increased CPU load on these servers will not impact your end users (such as a late evening or weekend).
Migration overview
For details about how to accomplish the tasks in the following table, see Step-by-Step Migration later in this document.
|Target State
|Start State
Update settings for the Management Server match the settings on your existing WSUS server
If migrating from WSUS 3.0, centralized management experience by using the Windows EBS Administration Console
If migrating from WSUS 2.0, new WSUS features
WSUS service on the Management Server is not configured
WSUS service on the Management Server is configured
Computers in your environment download and install updates from the Management Server
Computers in your environment use an existing WSUS server
If something goes wrong during the migration, your existing WSUS server will not be modified. This means that you can temporarily modify the GPO that was created by System Center Essentials to point to your existing WSUS server while you troubleshoot the issue. If you are unable to perform this migration, you can manually set the settings from your existing WSUS server on the Management Server and download the update data again.

2-7-17 *I fixed the linear perspective on the Oxford, enlarged Union Station, and added some shading..
ORIGINAL POST: 1-4-2015 Here is my favorite street in Denver of the Oxford hotel built in 1891 with the train station in the distance. I wanted the old time feel so I painted it in a black and white gray scale. Located in the Oxford is The Cruise Room which was re-decorated in 1933 after a bar on the Queen Mary Luxury Liner, looks exactly the same as it did back in the day, and is one of my favorite bars in the world.
Way to go Colorado!

Hip Hop Is Read centre their 12th sample set around Mos Def's seminal debut Black On Both Sides.
Before the name change and the fake stories about being denied entry into the US, Dante Terrell Smith was known as – and is still widely known as – Mos Def. His solo debut, Black On Both Sides, acted as a divergence from the seeming commercialisation of hip hop towards the late 90s with live instrumentation and political lyricism. A total of 38 samples feature in the set courtesy of Hip Hop Is Read including the likes of Gregory Isaacs, Fela Kuti, Aretha Franklin and KRS-One.

One of the most common things successful people do is give back to their community. While some people tend to think that successful people just rest and live a life of leisure and luxury, the truth is that a lot of successful people put their money to work. One example of someone who is using the money he has gained for his community is Perry Mandera. He has established himself in the transportation industry and is growing. However, he is using the amount of money that he gains for providing help to the community in any way that he can.
One of the ways that Perry Mandera has helped out in his community was getting involved with Mercy Home. He has used his resources, time and money to help support Mercy Home so that they can better help children who have dealt with different struggles. One of the issues that children are faced with are neglect and many different forms of abuse. Mercy Home is not only meant to provide a safe place for survivors of abuse but also some resources for children to use in order to recover from the harsh living conditions they had to endure.
Perry Mandera was inspired to give by the time he has spent in the Marines. When he was a Marine, he has learned a lot about what it means to be a contributing member of society. He has learned how to be disciplined and work with others so that they can achieve a common goal. Perry is very passionate about building. He is especially passionate about building lives and giving hope to people so that they can see not only a brighter future but also what they can do to contribute to this future. Perry Mandera is a great example when it comes to giving.

Assertion with the Order Trouble
While it really is acknowledged that mindfulness as being a subject matter has captivated research in relation to sport, there are even now gaps which have been not comprehensively resolved and for a result, the strategy just isn't adequately and proficiently used. Nonetheless, this examine won't claim to current ultimate and complete evidence around the material; relatively, its exploratory mother nature will convey forth perception in to the applicability of mindfulness while in the sport environment and never only encourage but in addition type the idea for foreseeable future analysis. In accordance with Cohen (2016, p. sixty), mindfulness may very well be referred to as the chance to disregard intrusive thoughts and exclusively focus on the present encounters. It follows, therefore, that conscious sport personalities is going to be characterised by larger potential to discover, recognize and manage not simply their particular emotions but in addition individuals in their workforce mates. To that finish, it is actually acknowledged that activity personalities, like several regular human being, are obviously predisposed to get repeated times of inside dialogue and ideas which will considerably effect on their behaviour and, in the long run, their overall performance. Hence, it may well accurately be deduced that when activity personalities do no not fully grasp and value the concept of mindfulness and successfully use it, they significantly compromise their personalized and also teama��s efficiency levels. It is critical to notice below this analysis won't claim it is completely wrong for activity personalities to knowledge and interact in earlier damaging views and inner thoughts; instead, with the sake of functionality, it really is not appropriate to carry this kind of feelings to the future match, therefore the essence of mindfulness. It's therefore the shortage of complete insight in to the idea of mindfulness and its implications that represent the challenge that this examine aims to deal with.
Purpose in how much keppra to overdose Order the Study
The underlying objective of this analysis job should be to evaluate the principle of mindfulness in football and specially how it enhances general performance. On one particular hand, Bernier et al (2009, p. 320) accept that efficiency degrees are noticeably afflicted from the unfavorable course through the lack of information and appreciation on the impacts of mindfulness in sport. Alternatively, Cohen (2016, p. 60) argues that a conscious individual will not allow for intrusive views and emotions to divert consideration within the existing instant. Hence, the aim of your study is to existing findings that assist the idea that mindfulness in football will enable the gamers to shut out past negative ideas, inner thoughts and encounters and alternatively center on the match at hand. Any competitive situations will necessarily and naturally excite players and stir up adrenaline and as a result, cognitive emotion regulation will become a vital necessity in these kinds of conditions (Mulej et al 2015, p. 138). More, mindfulness is often a psychological thought that is certainly positively connected with increased self-esteem, good social engagement, larger existence achievements and higher degrees of gratification. As a result, this examine can be established on and knowledgeable because of the really need to equip activity personalities in soccer with useful methods of regulating their emotional responses in order to achieve enhanced effectiveness. Several reports including individuals by Zeidner and Olnick-Shemesh (2010, p. 431) have proven that mindfulness stems from psychological intelligence which, in turn, facilitates and individuala��s psychological awareness. It follows, as a result, that this psychological consciousness can make it less complicated for sport personalities to deal with their feelings and effectively deal with strain and distress. Thus, it's www.bestessaysforsale.net/academic-writing-service also the purpose of this study to bridge the gaps that exist in research within the variables that hinder the development of mindfulness along with the connected levels of effectiveness in football.

August 10, 2011 04:00 ET
ISTANBUL, TURKEY and PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwire - Aug 10, 2011) - Trendyol.com, the leading and fastest-growing fashion e-commerce company in Turkey, has announced that it has raised $26 million from Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and existing investor, Tiger Global, to fuel continued growth and scale operations. Notably, this is Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers' (KPCB's) first investment in Turkey -- raising attention for both Trendyol.com and the rapidly-expanding Turkish Internet and e-commerce ecosystem. KPCB has invested some of the world's most respected technology companies including: Google, Amazon.com, Twitter, AOL and Zynga. Trendyol.com highlights the unprecedented Internet and e-commerce growth market in Turkey, as well as company growth statistics in this infographic: www.trendyol.com/trends.
Turkey's Economic, Internet & Social Growth
While the West may have experienced an e-commerce boom a decade ago, countries further east such as Turkey are now just moving through that economic and distribution cycle. Turkey has 35M Internet users (source: IWS) and ranks as the fifth largest Internet population in Europe. What makes Turkey unique as an emerging market is its high credit card penetration rate of approximately 60 percent with 46M credit cards (source: BKM), and the third highest online engagement in Europe (source: comScore). In terms of social networking, Turkey is quickly becoming one of the most connected countries in the region, locking in fifth place for the greatest number of Facebook users globally, eight for Twitter and first for FriendFeed.
"We're particularly thrilled that Kleiner Perkins could see the market opportunity for e-commerce in Turkey and Trendyol.com as leading the way," Demet Mutlu, founder and CEO. "Trendyol.com's mission has been to revolutionize fashion in Turkey and make it accessible to all: for those who don't have the time to shop; the brands or stores in their cities; and/or for those who cannot afford high retail prices. The new financing will be used for key growth initiatives including enhancing our customer service, investment in operations, increasing member acquisition and further accelerating our growth within Turkey as well as other markets -- all to deliver the best customer experience."
Trendyol.com's Market Dominance
Founded by Demet Mutlu, Trendyol.com launched its consumer e-commerce site in March 2010. In merely 16 months, the Company scaled to four million members (or one in nine Internet users in Turkey), a large scale distribution and logistics ecosystem and over 350 employees. The management team includes Founder and CEO Demet Mutlu (Turkey's leading female entrepreneur), Managing Partner Begum Tekin as well as a strong executive bench.
"KPCB is very excited about Trendyol.com's growth, quality of user experience, innovation in the fashion industry and its first-class team of entrepreneurs," said Aileen Lee, partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. "Trendyol.com represents the new era of Internet innovators delivering on the promise of the social Web. We look forward to helping the Trendyol.com team continue to grow the business and are optimistic about its continued success in this high growth market," continued Mary Meeker, partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers.
"What attracted us to Trendyol.com was its grasp of how to leverage economic trends in Turkey such as high credit card penetration rates and localized marketing," said Lee Fixel, managing director of Tiger Global Management. "Trendyol.com is also smartly applying crowdsourcing to its business model and state-of-the art logistics to deliver on product delivery cycles which engender a loyal customer base."
To date Trendyol.com has secured over $50 million in total financing since the site launched in March 2010.
