I managed to engage my brain while the sun was shining! And take photos! This total excess of competence surely can't last for long...
I tried to hang the quilt on the washing line but, of course, as soon as I did that the wind started blowing, so I had to do it Film in the Fridge style with lots of setting the camera timer and running around because Mr G had already gone off to work. Add to that a teensie bit of cropping to get my wrinkly socks out of the photo, and I (finally) give you the Lila Tueller quilt...
The wind started blowing a bit there too, so it looks much narrower at the bottom than it really is.
So. This is two 5" charm packs of the whole of Lila's Santorini range, the thin white border is some poly-cotton sheeting that I had in my stash, the orange and gold leavey pattern is more Santorini, and the yellow border is a Kona cotton in Banana. The wadding came from the US via the Dublin Knitting and Stitch Show (it was sold to me as 100% cotton but the label seems to suggest there's 10% polyester in there), and the backing is a Polarvide fleece blanket from Ikea which I cut to size. It turned out about 30 x 55" in the end.
I think I'm getting used to the busy-ness of this quilt but next time I do an all-mad-charm-pack-quilt I will definitely put a plain colour between the patterns.
I will never be anything other than a mediocre quilter - I like the end product but I just don't have the enthusiasm for the processes involved - but I do have some more quilts that I want to make (and have fabric for already!), so if I get fed up with (or over-run by) baby stuff, perhaps I'll get the next lot of fabric out.
I also made three burp-cloths-cum-general-wipey-things over the weekend with three of the fat quarters I got from the DKSS. People suggest muslin a lot as a protective cloth to sling over your shoulder before you burp a baby but all the muslin I know is, I think, far too thin to work, so I thought something with a bit of towelling would probably do the job better.
This was before the is it, isn't it? drama but fortunately all three fabrics are pretty non-gender specific.
I just backed them with a fat quarter sized piece of bamboo french terry jersey which I got from Eco Earth Fabrics' Ebay shop (but they also have a non-Ebay shop which by the way is having a sale until the end of the month). I originally bought the terry for making bibs and there is still enough over to make a good few of those as well (once I get my act together and draw up a pattern for them!).
So, before the promised blizzard starts, I shall waddle off to the shops and then get on with some studying.

Are you adaptable to the changes of the world?
I toyed with a dozen titles for this post… and settled on the question "Are you adaptable to the changes of the world?" because it is a question i find myself asking frequently. It seems that the world is changing so rapidly again, and the way we have functioned is changing too. In past blogs we explored the changes that technology has made on our communication style. With the sharp rise in new technologies, development of new venues and outlets for conveying information there is a great need to adapt, change, and modify how we are living, communicating and functioning.
The concept of adapting is not something that is intuitive to everyone. Recently that became crystal clear to me. I was asked by the head of our studio to organize our building for an event in August. Now i have to tell you that i love the studio I am in, as well as the vintage former textile mill building in what once was the garment district of Cleveland…. The structure is over 100 years old, high ceilings, and vintage man operated elevators. Most of the artists and businesses in the building are clearly living in the present, engaging social media, working hard at developing their art, their customer base, and carefully creating what is in demand. That is most of the artists – not all.
Feedback was wonderfully supportive – excited to be involved, and willing to do what is needed to bring this event to a successful result. But there were two painters that expressed a different story. (Arent there always one or two sticks in the mud?) In fact, rather than joining the party, they made it clear they would not partner with us, and in fact one of the emails told me to go F&@k myself. Wow. What was that about?
And then I realized what is going on. Adaptability is not in their vocabulary. They have been painters for many years, keeping a studio and doing their thing in the same manner they have the past 30-40 years. Yes, they discovered social media, but they never worked on building relationships with their customers, or the community of artists in the area. They have settled into a pattern and believe "If you build it they will come." All i can say is "NO". Life is different now – people expect much more. Yes, i think it starts with great communication, keeping people informed, engaged, educated. As an artist, or for that matter, as a human being I always ask myself what kind of value am i providing to others? how am I improving the outlook of others? How is the world better for what I offer?
Adapting to change is both a difficult thing, and an absolutely critical skill set these days. I view the scenario of these two ladies as like using an old hard wired rotary wall phone in this day of super smart phones. We don't function well with rotary, nobody wants to remain tethered to the kitchen wall any more, and technology has moved us light years ahead. So why choose rotary phones? (OK, for those unfamiliar, at one time phones were hard wired to the wall, limiting where you would be able to take your phone call. Rather than buttons to press, there was a circular dial with finger holes at each number. To dial you placed your finger in the hole corresponding to the number and rotated the dial, then released it.)
So how adaptable are you to changes in life? Are you willing to modify and change how you function to make a bigger impact? or do you prefer status quo – make no waves?

Wonder if the streaks of light you saw in the night sky at around 9pm PST in the Pacific Northwest were UFOs? Unfortunately (or fortunately), it was just debris cause by the breakup of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket stage, left over from the Mar 4 Starlink launch that took place weeks ago. Just moments after the debris started burning up, countless video clips of the event found its way to social media platforms worldwide.
Architecture firm Abiboo reveals Nüwa, a sustainable city on Mars, which is a design concept that ranked as a finalist among 175 projects submitted from around the world for the 2020 Mars Socity competition. The Red Planet does not have the surface conditions of Earth, so to address that issue, the city boasts vertical structures built into the side of a cliff. There are a total of five cities, each accommodating between 200,000 and 250,000 inhabitants.
We have seen the future of tourism, and it includes going into space, thanks to the Orbital Assembly Corporation (OAC). Called Voyager Station, it's slated to be the first commercial space station hotel, complete with artificial gravity. The team is comprised of NASA veterans, pilots, engineers and architects, with their goal being to construct a low Earth orbit hotel that rotates fast enough to generate artificial gravity for anyone interested in off-Earth living.
You've probably seen the SpaceX Starship in some form or another and wondered what the interior looked like? Well, since it's intended to function both as a second stage to reach orbital velocity on launches from Earth, the upper stage could be used in outer space as an on-orbit long-duration spacecraft. Think of it as a high-tech space station designed for beyond Earth orbit (BEO) launches to Mars.

NASA is seeking to purchase lunar soil samples from private companies. These companies are not limited to just those in the United States, but from around the world, and the lunar samples requested range from 1.8 ounces to 18 ounces by 2024. The space agency will pay between $15,000 to $25,000 for them, but with one catch, you'll get the 80% remainder of the money once the soil is delivered. Companies only get 10% after signing the contract and another 10% once the spacecraft launches.

Characterizing the photochemical environment over China
Liu, Zhen
MetadataShow full item record
The rapid rising anthropogenic emissions driven by economic growth over China documented by satellite observations and bottom-up inventories have led to severely degraded air quality, and also have been suggested to be linked to the recent upward trends of tropospheric O₃ over the regions downwind of China. Multi-scale modeling analyses facilitated by ground-level, aircraft and satellite observations have been conducted to understand the atmospheric chemistry over China. Analyses using a 1-D photochemical model constrained by measurements at Beijing in August of 2007 suggest that reactive aromatic VOCs are the major source (~75%) of peroxy acetyl nitrate (PAN). Detailed radical budget analyses reveal the very fast ROₓ (OH + HO₂ + RO₂) production, recycling and destruction driven by VOC oxidation and heterogeneous processes. Photoenhanced aerosol surface uptake of NO₂ is found to be the predominant source of nitrous acid (HONO) during daytime (~70%). 3-D regional modeling analyses of tropospheric vertical column densities of glyoxal (CHOCHO) from SCIAMACHY show that anthropogenic emissions of aromatic VOCs are substantially underestimated (by a factor of 5 - 6, regionally varied) over China. Such an underestimation is the main cause of a large missing source of CHOCHO over the region in current global models, and could also partly explain the underestimation of organic aerosols in previous modeling studies.

Smart HR teams have begun using medical tourism as an employee benefit. Medical tourism refers to traveling outside the state or country to get medical attention.
Jumping on this growing trend has helped many businesses cut medical expenses. In addition, employees love it because they love to travel.
Medical Tourism as an Employee Benefit Saves Money
In 2019, no country's inhabitants outspent those of the United States, in terms of health care expenses. Americans, on average, each spent $11,072 for medical costs that year.
Per capita expenses in all other countries, by contrast, came to fewer than five figures each. In fact, the numbers for people in most countries never topped even one half that spent by Americans.
In 2018, Americans shelled out some hefty premiums for employer-sponsored health insurance: $6,896 for single coverage and $19,616 for family coverage. Not only that, but the average premium for each, respectively, increased by 3 and 5 percent the next year.
The average worker with single coverage pays 18 percent of the premium cost. Meanwhile, those with family coverage pay 29 percent. That means that employers have been picking up the balance: 71 to 82 percent.
So, to stay afloat, American business administrators must find healthcare savings. Cost savings from medical tourism have spurred many HR teams to consider it as an option.
For example, savings estimates on foreign procedures vary from 20 to 90 percent. Meanwhile, for domestic options, Corporate Wellness magazine said, "Employers are catching on, realizing they can reduce costs by 20 percent to 40 percent – more than enough to cover travel expenses."
The cost of surgeries varies among states. That can make up for travel expenses to a different state, for joint replacement surgery.
By steering workers to facilities with high-quality care and lower prices, employers say they can reduce their costs 20 percent to 40 percent – more than enough to cover the travel expenses.
Employers can provide benefits beyond health insurance through medical tourism. The lower costs allow them to fund procedures not covered by traditional insurance. For example, many employees appreciate travel opportunities for cosmetic or dental care.
Medical Tourism as an Employee Benefit
As businesses look for savings in health insurance costs, employees want more perks. For example, Millenials replacing Baby Boomers in the job market demand better benefits.
So, as business owners look for ways to reduce healthcare costs, they also have to find creative ways to increase employee benefits. Medical tourism provides solutions for both issues. In addition to generating costs savings, employees enjoy other benefits.
Benefits of Traveling for Healthcare
First of all, as the name implies, tourism comes as an obvious benefit. Employees get to travel, and they love travel benefits. By properly presenting the offer to travel for lower rates, they get a vacation bonus.
They have many options to help them enjoy a vacation as they relocate for medical procedures. For example, many patients can enjoy outpatient procedures in an enjoyable vacation environment. Arthroscopies, breast biopsies, burn excisions, cataract surgery, dental restoration, and gastric bypasses do not require overnight hospitalization.
Patients undergoing some of the less intense procedures may really appreciate having a few days off to relax on the beach or tour a city.
Travel itself is therapeutic. So, both employees and employers benefit by sending employees on trips for medical procedures.
Medical Tourism as an Employee Benefit: Local Therapy
In addition, medical tourists can enjoy local therapy opportunities. Some of these may be unavailable or too expensive near home. These include traditional Asian therapies, yoga, meditation, and massage.
Travel Boosts Morale
Providing travel accommodations and itineraries to employees can boost morale. To begin with, most people like to travel.
Employees also like knowing that their employer has already booked their hotel and flights. Instead of worrying about payments and logistics, they can focus on enjoyment. Such benefits, according to Forbes, lead "… to increased employee retention and higher rates of productivity."
Travel Relieves Stress
Also, everyone knows how travel helps relieves stress … a factor critical to a healthy recovery. Getting employees into the habit of traveling can help their long-term health and outlook on the job.
Employees returning from trips also enjoy greater motivation and prestige in the office. They enjoy telling coworkers about their trips, giving everyone a common point of interest. Employees who enjoy each other work better together.
Cultured Employees Contribute More
Finally, exposing employees to a new culture, whether a few states away or across the globe, helps them grow. They come back to work after having seen the world from a new perspective. Cultured employees can contribute more to work by sharing new insights.
Think About Medical Tourism
More and more businesses have adopted medical tourism in recent years. As healthcare costs continue to soar in the U.S., employers see this as an important opportunity to save money and incentivize employees, making for a better workplace. An experienced insurance broker can tell you how to use medical tourism as an employee benefit to fit into your business's healthcare coverage.

Drug-resistant infections – the new pandemic? And, a tangled network of tiny tubes, pulsating beneath our feet. Fungal networks below ground sustain life above.
I met Vivien Sansour for the first time back in 2016, in her home town of Beit Jala, on the southern edge of Bethlehem, in Israeli-occupied Palestine. An anthropologist by training, Vivien has turned to the promotion of food and the cultural sovereignty tied to growing one's own and saving the seeds, as her life's work.
Climate change is a human rights issue. Nowhere is this clearer than in Israeli-occupied/colonized Palestine, where land and natural resources required for climate adaptation are controlled by Israel, and systematically denied to Palestinians. Of all these resources, none are more vital than water.
Tourists come to Al-Walaja from around the world to enjoy the lovely surrounding landscape. A huge olive tree, reputedly over 5000 years-old, is a big draw. For political tourists, Israel's imposing "security barrier," soon to enclose little Al-Walaja in a cage, is a must-see.
When Michael rows his boat ashore in the old camp fire song, across a Jordan River chilly and wide, he discovers a land of milk and honey. The descendants of shepherds he might have greeted are now the victims of land confiscation, property destruction and assault.
For Palestinian shepherds trapped in the ever-expanding matrix of Israeli military occupation, surrounded by Jewish settlements, army outposts and settler-only roads, life is anything but pastoral.

The seductive voice of a clarinet. The wild wail of a tenor sax. The whimsical tones of a bassoon or oboe. Each of these sounds is produced by blowing air over a thin reed sliced from a cane stalk. Most cane reed is produced in the Var region of southern France.
For those who thought that corporate concentration in the food industry couldn't get tighter, wake up and smell the coffee. The Big Six seed and farm chemical producers are now on the verge of coalescing into three. Amazon may soon be the world's biggest supermarket.
Standing on the edge of little Battir, I feasted my eyes on an astonishing sight: an amphitheater of ancient stone terraces covered in a cornucopia of fruits, vegetables, herbs and trees — including olive trees over a thousand years old.

In an agronomy lab and farm field in Montpellier, France, scientists are uncovering the secrets of one of the world's great crops. The potential spin-offs for global green economies are huge.
Plants that grow from seeds are the foundation of humanity's food supply. Wheat, barley, oats, corn, potatoes and a dizzying variety of beans and legumes … Conserving these seeds of survival is one of humanity's greatest challenges.
The slow-food movement has reached the sun-baked, Bolivian altiplano. Here, small-scale producers are making the most of scarce water supplies, ample sun and local expertise to grow food at the top of the world.
In the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains – in northern India – a very energetic woman has declared that seeds should also be free. We caught up with Vandana Shiva at her biodiversity farm north just outside Dehradun.
Who coined the phrase "Think globally, act locally" is a matter of dispute. Dinah Ceplis and Zack Gross certainly exemplify the philosophy in action.
John K. Sampson's poignant song about Winnipeg captures the cold anonymity of Prairie Canada's capital on a grey dismal day. But there are as many reasons to love this town as to hate it. The Good Food Club is one.
In the summer of 2014, several hundred people gathered at a fracking "Day of Protest" in Kent County, between Moncton and Miramichi — Elsipogtog First Nations territory.
Until recently, Rwandan farmers knew when the rains would come; when best to plant their crops. These days, with varying weather patterns attributed to climate change, more and more Rwandan farmers struggle to grow food.
When it comes to garbage, it's a matter of perspective. One person's trash is another person's cash. Outside of Kigali, in the east African nation of Rwanda, villagers have figured out how to turn food waste into cooking fuel.

It seems that a number of folks have opted for a parallel installation strategy where they have both 4.5 and 5 installed, then slowly port over addons as developers update compatibility/installers, etc. Are there any downsides to this strategy? For example, will ORBX Central support a dual installation like that. Thanks for any insight!

Ashley "Ash" Williams is tearing it up on the small screen with Ash vs. The Evil Dead, and this March, he'll do the same in comics as he returns with a new book. Dynamite Entertainment has announced the series Army of Darkness: Furious Road from writer Nancy A. Collins and artist Kewber Baal.
The comic is set twenty years in the future, where the Deadites have succeeded in bringing down Western civilization. The unexpected upshot of all this is that supernatural species like vampires, witches, and werewolves form an uneasy alliance with humanity in order to survive. The only hope for both mankind and monsters is a ritual that will send the Deaditese back to the hell that birthed them. Of course, that ritual is housed in a scrappy book called the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis. A rag-tag group of creatures including the Frankenstein Monster and Eva, the Daughter of Dracula are on the hunt to track down the tome, but first they'll have to deal with it's guardian: Ashley "Ash" Williams.

"I think Ash's biggest appeal is that he's just an Ordinary Joe thrust into some serious Lovecraftian high weirdness" says Collins. "He is doing his best to be a hero, even though he really doesn't want the job."
"Nancy Collins has crafted the perfect Army of Darkness story, putting Ash squarely into a post-apocalyptic world over-run by Deadites, where his only allies are horrific. Plus: Dracula," says Dynamite Entertainment editorial director, Joe Rybrandt.

I dig the premise of this new series. Any time you mix up a bunch of monsters in one title, I'm in. Tossing Ash Williams into the mix is icing on the cake. The first issue of Army of Darkness: Furious Road is set for release on March 2nd, 2016. It will feature variant covers from Tyler Crook, Gabriel Hardman, Francesco Francavilla, and Tony Fleecs.

ATWATER VILLAGE, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Goodwill reopens two dozen stores in Southern California. The non-profit reseller is implementing new rules to keep shoppers and staff safe.
"Our shoppers are thrilled to be back," said Marla Eby with Goodwill Southern California.
This location in Atwater Village is among the several stores already reopened, but under the developing COVID-19 landscape, a lot has changed.
"We've taken a lot of safety measures to make sure the stores are safe," said Eby.
To create that safe environment, employees and customers must wear a face mask, workers are undergoing daily health checks and fitting rooms are temporarily closed. And, you'll notice new plexiglass guards at the cash registers.
Already the customers are busy shopping.
"Yeah, I'm happy that it's reopened; as long as everything's safe I think that's OK," said a Goodwill customer.
Another change is the donation process. After weeks of being on hold, it's finally resuming, but it's described as no-contact. Donors will place items in bins to be isolated before they're sold, and receipts will be emailed.
While each location adjusts to these changes, there's been an undeniable impact on Goodwill's overall mission of providing no-cost employment services. And they're doing all they can to bounce back to help people in need.
"Anyone who doesn't have a job and needs some assistance, so when you shop and when you donate, you're actually helping people in the community," said Eby.

A new shift in philosophy has begun to emerge among lawmakers in Washington. Legislation now making its way through Congress would seek to overmilitarize America's counterterrorism efforts, effectively making the U.S. military the judge, jury and jailer of terrorism suspects, to the exclusion of the FBI and local and state law enforcement agencies. As former federal judges, we find this prospect deeply disturbing. Not only would such an effort ignore 200 years of legal precedent, it would fly in the face of common sense.
The bill in question, the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act, would codify methods such as indefinite detention without charge and mandatory military detention, and make them applicable to virtually anyone picked up in anti-terrorism efforts — including U.S. citizens — anywhere in the world, including on U.S. soil. Such an effort to restrict counterterrorism efforts by traditional law enforcement agencies would sadly demonstrate that many members of Congress have very little faith in America's criminal justice system.
It is a fact that our criminal justice system is uniquely qualified to handle complex terrorism cases. Indeed, civilian courts have successfully overseen more than 400 terrorism-related trials, whereas military commissions have handled only six. While the use of military commissions may occasionally be appropriate under the Constitution, the Guantanamo military commissions remain subject to serious constitutional challenges that could result in overturned guilty verdicts. The simple truth is that existing federal courts operate under rules and procedures that provide all the tools necessary to prosecute terrorism cases and they are not subject to the same legal challenges as military commissions.
We need access to proven instruments and methods in our fight against terrorism. Stripping local law enforcement and the FBI of the ability to arrest and gather intelligence from terrorism suspects and limiting our trial options is counterintuitive and could pose a genuine threat to our national security. Furthermore, an expanded mandatory military detention system would lead to yet more protracted litigation, infringe on law enforcement's ability to fight terrorism on a local and state level, and invite the military to act as law enforcement within the borders of our states.
In the face of these disturbing developments, we are encouraged by the fact that the administration has expressed its own concerns. The Obama White House has raised strong objections to congressional efforts to undermine the use of our traditional criminal justice system, efforts that would effectively eliminate the administration's ability to leverage "the strength and flexibility" of the system to "incapacitate dangerous terrorists and gather critical intelligence." In previous statements, President Barack Obama said he intends to oppose any attempt to extend or expand such restrictions in the future. We submit to the president that the future is now.
We firmly believe the United States can preserve its national security without resorting to sweeping departures from our constitutional tradition. We call on Obama and Congress to support a policy for detention and trial of suspected terrorists that is consistent with our Constitution and maintains the use of our traditional criminal justice system to combat terrorism. Further restricting the tools at our disposal is not in the best interest of our national security.

Shocks No-one, & the Racists that
he attracts are gettin' WAY WORSE
For example, lets enjoy this "quote":
"Surely, he is not responsible for the
actions of his own wife in this Great
feminist experimental society, but if
my wife was playin a 'lead' role in a
Jewish Conspiracy & to Dissolve the
border with Mexico, I would File For
divorce. Wouldn't you?!?! Cruz' wife
should be in Prison, or Executed for
High Treason. Donald Trump's Wife
should be on the cover of magazines"
These lying racist morons could fuck
up a junkyard. They'd fuck up a one
car funeral. Luckily because they are
all ignorant morons they all off them
selves at higher rates so maybe now
Psssssssst, Anti-Semite and massive
Racist Louis Farrakhan Loves Trump
Tells you all you'll ever need to know
The Clinton Camp Crying
The entire Hillary Clinton campaign
is falling apart. And the reason?!?!
(<-She's Scared)
She's losing primaries 6 out of seven
with more coming soon so VOTE!!!!!
Now, every Spokesperson for her, is
askin for a better "tone" from Bernie
The translation? "Sanders kicked our
fucking asses, in 6 of 7 Primaries. He
is decimating us badly by simply just
tellin' the truth about clear corporate
welfare ties she has, while he "offers"
much better policies than her". Oops
NOTE: This Racist Black Woman Is
An Idiot For Bein' So Racist Against
Another White Male. What A Loser!
Have a day!

Last year, we didn't only face a raging health pandemic. We also had to face social, environmental, and political injustices. In the face of all that, there was a shift in consumer standards. They don't want brands to sit idly by. If you do, you're supporting the status quo. That's how consumers see it, and that's why you need to make a stand and make that stand known through your Tampa web design.
The products and services that you offer do not stand on their own. They are embodied by your stand on certain causes. That's why it's important to amplify your voice; to make sure that people hear what you have to say about the causes that matter to you. As you get ready to make public your company's values and principles, you should also prep your web design team to reflect these opinions on your company website.
Speaking with bold and iconic visuals on your website will make people notice your brand. For some, it will be the first time. It became clear last year that consumers want more from the brands that they support. It's going to be the same this 2021 and beyond. They don't want you to sit on the sides as injustices roll out on the streets. They are going to demand brands to take a stand.
This is why you might see activism on websites. These bold prints and even bolder visuals are designed to make people notice. The elements are based on signages that people usually bring during rallies and protests. These unique and bespoke designs use images of icons, custom-made fonts, and illustrations.
When there are ongoing events, rallies, and protests, your Tampa web design should react immediately. It should show messages of either indignation, support, or solidarity. Creating bold visuals isn't something done overnight, so you would need a good graphics designer and web designer to make sure these messages are integrated into your website immediately.
Aside from design activism, you should also focus on amplifying diverse and inclusive voices in every element of your website—from the messages to the visuals to the promotions.
It's not easy for brands to take a stand but 2021 is going to be a different year. People are not content to sit idly by as brands continue to feed off from them. They want to support brands that support their causes, too. This is going to change the Tampa web design industry, but it's a change that you shouldn't ignore.

Appeal of the International Committees of Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camps:
Stop this war immediately!
As custodians of the memory of the victims of the Nazi extermination and concentration camps and of the values they defended - often to the death - the representatives of the International Committees of the Nazi Camps, faithful to the Oaths proclaimed at the Liberation and attached to founding historical realities, declare :
Among the Soviet survivors of the Nazi camps who, in the spring of 1945,left the places where they had faced death for years, the most numerous were often Russians and Ukrainians. They all shared the hope of becoming witnesses and actors of a new, liberated and peaceful world.
Russians and Ukrainians had been registered by the Nazis under the same category of prisoners, they had to face the same deprivations, humiliations and life-threatening situations. They could only rely on the solidarity between deportees to survive. All of them had had their share in the common struggle against the Nazi aggressor, as citizens of the Soviet Union.
New states have emerged, but the common history and the human bonds forged by history do not stop at national borders. None of those who suffered the war, none of those who carry the painful legacy, can bear the prospect of a return to tragic times. All of them are united today in considering, in the words of the Mauthausen Oath, "this reconquered freedom as a common good of all peoples".
As bearers of the memory of the victims of Nazism, the signatories of this appeal denounce the use of the words denazification and genocide to justify the attack on Ukraine. We are legitimate in pointing out the weight of tragedy that they cover. We cannot accept that these words should be so abused.
The testament of the women of Ravensbrück (Neubrandenburg Manifesto), the Oaths and Manifestos of Buchenwald, Mauthausen - on the sites of the just-liberated camps - and then Ravensbrück, Dachau, and Neuengamme all call for peaceful coexistence between all peoples, in peace, democracy and the sovereignty of nations.
We condemn the war against Ukraine, which endangers the very existence of this country and peace in Europe. This military attack is a clear violation of international law. We are convinced that any political conflict can be solved at the negotiating table if both sides show reason and humanity.
Stop this war immediately!

The Red Miele Light Box Pavilion
This is the Miele Light Box, a pavilion designed by Gonzalo Mardones Viviani. It's located in Huechuraba, Santiago, Chile. It was a project designed for MIELE with the help of Orlando Gatica, Douglas Leonard, Pablo Qualitz, Sebastian Marshall and Bang & Olufsen.
The construction ended in 2011, more exactly somewhere between October and November. It occupies a total surface of 120 square meters and it's a sort of pavilion designed to reflect the best of Miele's products. The client's had some very specific requests and making them real wasn't easy. On one hand, the project needed to transmit the idea of lightness. To make that happen, the architects designed a structure that seems to levitate above the ground without touching it.
Another important aspect was related to color. The façade and the pillars have been painted red and this really makes the structure stand out. The pavilion features glass walls on both sides and this allows lots of natural light to get in and it also allows expansive views of the surrounding landscape. Inside, the central element is the bell that has also been painted red and that is hanging above the main counter. All the furniture has been designed by Orlando Gatica and it's very beautiful and stylish. It's a combination of black and red and it looks really nice when combined with the white ceiling and the grey floor.{found on archdaily and pics by Nico Saieh}

GLENDORA, Calif. (Jan. 15, 2021) – NHRA and Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park have made the difficult decision to not host the 2021 NHRA Arizona Nationals, leaving an opening on the 2021 schedule which NHRA is optimistic will be filled with an event at a facility that has not hosted a national event before.
The ongoing COVID-19 restrictions due to the public health situation in the Phoenix area and state of Arizona were taken into account by officials at NHRA and Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in determining to not hold the event this year.
"We'll miss our annual stop at Wild Horse Pass, but we are working on new options for 2021," said NHRA president Glen Cromwell. "We hope that fans in the area will try to make it to another one of our events."
The Gila River community, track and NHRA officials mutually agreed not to host the Phoenix event in 2021, primarily based on COVID-19-related issues.
"We have enjoyed being host to the NHRA Arizona Nationals for the past 36 years," said Mark Grado, General Manager of Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park. "However, due to many circumstances beyond our control, including current COVID-19 restrictions, unfortunately the event is not feasible for the 2021 season."
"Our focus remains on making the NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series a memorable experience for our fans, racers, sponsors, partners and tracks. We've gotten interest by other tracks in adding an event to the schedule. We're not sure if this is possible for 2021, but we're definitely looking into it," Cromwell continued.
The 2021 NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series is set to begin March 11-14 in Gainesville and currently includes 22 events at race tracks across the country.
ABOUT NHRA Headquartered in Glendora, Calif., NHRA is the primary sanctioning body for the sport of drag racing in the United States. NHRA presents 22 national events featuring the NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series, NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series, E3Spark Plugs Pro Mod Drag Racing Series presented by J&A Service, Factory Stock Showdown and Top Fuel Harley Series. NHRA provides competition opportunities for drivers of all levels in the NHRA Summit Racing Series and the NHRA Drags: Street Legal Style. NHRA also offers the NHRA Jr. Street program for teens and the Summit Racing Jr. Drag Racing League for youth ages 5 to 17. With over 120 Member Tracks, NHRA allows racers to compete at a variety of locations nationally and internationally. NHRA's Youth and Education Services (YES) Program reaches over 30,000 students annually to ignite their interest in automotive and racing related careers. NHRA's streaming service, NHRA.tv, allows fans to view all NHRA national events as well as exclusive features of the sport. In addition, NHRA owns and operates four racing facilities: Atlanta Dragway in Georgia; Gainesville Raceway in Florida; Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis; and Auto Club Raceway at Pomona in Southern California.

Prep Football 2016: Week 5 preview capsules
Lely (3-1) at Barron Collier (2-2), 7 p.m.
Key players: L -- QB Jacquez Carter, WR/CB Jean Joseph, WR/CB Taejon Wright; BC -- QB Jack Bueltel, RB Dana Brown, LB Kevin Thorne
What to watch for: An interesting contrast. You might as well call Lely the Air Trojans. They handily have the area's best passing attack and are very reliant on that as they have no running back with over 48 yards. Barron Collier prefers to run at opponents from mostly old-school sets. Its best runner is its quarterback, senior Jack Bueltel. If Barron Collier can move the chains, this should be a really fun one.
Community School (2-1, 0-0 in 2A-7) at Moore Haven (3-1, 1-0), 7 p.m.
Key players: CSN – QB Cooper Weiss, RB/WR Joe Lang, RB Robert Devito, WR Daniel Zuloaga; MH – QB John Cox, WR Aldulvar Gary Jr., LB Da'shon Ross, RB Lorenzo Sampson.
What to watch for: This is the first of six straight district games for Community School, which finished runner-up in Class 2A-District 7 last season and made the playoffs for the first time. Both teams are guided by dual-threat quarterbacks. Weiss has passed for 421 yards and five touchdowns and rushed for 201 yards and three touchdowns. Cox has thrown for 484 yards and four touchdowns while rushing for 416 yards and seven touchdowns.
Gulf Coast (1-3) at Estero (1-3), 7:30 p.m.
Key players: GC – QB Kaden Frost, RB DeMarcus Townsend, DE Trey Prater, TE George Takacs; E – QB Phil Setterquist, CB Keevon Clark, LB DJ Adams, RB/DB Max Bosi
What to watch for: Two teams looking to right the ship heading into district play. The Wildcats defense has played very well in the early going, but will face perhaps its toughest test yet with the matchup problems the Sharks present. The talented Frost has struggled with turnovers in the early going, something he'll need to correct if Gulf Coast is to make a third consecutive postseason appearance.
Southwest Florida Christian (2-2) at First Baptist Academy (1-2), 7:30 p.m.
Key players: SFCA – QB Kobe Gee, QB/SS Chase Reed, WR Jacob Soud, RB Brandon Lawrence, DT Dillon Martino; FBA – QB Julien Tirado, RB Jayce Howell, WR Drake Woods, LB Blane Briggs, LB Joe Sparacio, WR Ethan Fletcher.
What to watch for: First Baptist has a solid group of veteran players, however, the Lions' offense will be tested this against the Kings with new quarterback Julien Tirado stepping in for Cole Burlison, who will remain sidelined indefinitely with a knee injury he suffered in Week 3.
Miami Beach Senior (2-2) at Golden Gate (0-4), 7 p.m.
Key players: MB – QB Eddie Brill, CB/WR Davenson Cadet, WR Trevon Jackson; GG – CB Schneider Herard, QB Jay Herard, RB/LB Justenley Philippe
What to watch for: Titans kicker Jose Perez. He lined up for a 47-yard field goal in Week 3 and, although the kick went wide left, it had the distance to hit from well over 50 yards. He also consistently boots kickoffs to the back of the end zone or farther. In a close game, Golden Gate won't need to get too close to have a shot at three points. Look for the Titans to utilize designed quarterback runs, an area they normally excel in. Jay Herard filled in for quick-footed quarterback Chris Nazaire last week and lived up to the role, picking up 87 yards on the ground.
Immokalee (1-2) at Naples (3-0), 7:30 p.m.
Key players: I – QB Nathaniel Betancourt, RB Fred Green, RB Malcom Jackson, LB Jevon Thomas; N – QB Jordan Persad-Tirone, RB Marcelino Charles, DL Sawyer Schwarz, LB Kale Schust.
What to watch for: This is the oldest rivalry in Collier County, dating back to 1959. Naples holds a 25-22 advantage and has won the last two. It's the first time since 2008 one team has won back-to-back games in the rivalry after they alternated wins for six years. Immokalee is coming off a bye, and it's the first time new coach Rodelin Anthony has faced Naples after playing for the Indians from 2002-04. The Golden Eagles are ranked No. 5 in Class 6A and have scored 50 points or more in each game this season.
St. John Neumann (2-1) at Marco Island Academy (0-3), 7 p.m.
Key players: SJN — RB Vladimyr Bouzi, LB/FB Jensen Jones, WR/DB Pierre Eaton, OL/DL Howard Jordan, QB Ross Zepeda; MIA — TE/LB Bon Deese, QB Matt Grille, RB/DL Tyler Gresham, RB/LB Vinnie Moller
What to watch for: Both teams are in the midst of rebuilding their programs so both of them view this as a benchmark game to measure up how that process is going under their new head coaches. Despite the difference in records, these teams are pretty evenly matched so it will likely come down to which one of them can keep their playmakers on the field the longest.
South Fort Myers (4-0) at Dunbar (3-1), 7:30 p.m.
Key players: SFM -- QB Maurice Flournoy, RB/CB Riley Ware, WR/S Jeshaun Jones; D -- QB Jarius Johnson, RB Lajuan Preston, S Shanon Reid
What to watch for: How these teams handle this. Dunbar is coming off a 27-24 loss at Lely in last week's district opener and South Fort Myers has a bye after this before kicking off district play. Athleticism and speed will be all over the place. If South Fort Myers can get the offense rolling a bit better, the Wolfpack could start something big here.
