under which we must live our lives.
where once a sickle moon reflected itself.
in the sky of illusions.
stars and moon begin to shine anew.
reappears on the river waters.

of that small Catalan village.
Thank you so much, Bill. So glad you enjoyed this.
Our world truly needs more moon catchers.
Yay!! Thank you for your comment, Lavanya.
you light up the night sky.
You do also see the biggest part of the submerged, Newton. The dream of achieving a better world through nonviolent civil resistance movements following Erica Chenoweth’s ideas is what the majority of the world population wants, except for the powerful oligarchies, who do not want to lose their enormous benefits. It is the same everywhere: Catalonia, Sri Lanka… Besides, I believe in the words uttered by deceased Catalan pro-independence leader Muriel Casals: “We are the dream”. When we work for this together we can change for better.
BTW, I was just reading about Sri Lanka and its many languages, cultures, religions and ethnicities. Which one(s) are you?
Thank you so much, Adithya. Am I right with the spelling of your name this time?

We win some and we lose some but we should never lose hope.
Yay, never lose hope!! 🌈☀🌿 So glad you enjoyed these verses, Pranab.
And glad that your posts are showing up in my reader again.
A friend came this morning and helped me.
Thanks to your friend then.
Hi, Gary, great to hear from you again! It is been a while. Will get to your work soon.
Marta, I am presently reading the fourth book by an author Carlos Ruiz Zafon who presently lives in Los Angels, California. His stories take place before and after the Franco regime and mostly are centered in Barcelona with many Catalan figures. Although, his characters are place in a fictional story, the situation is based historically in the time frame I mentioned above. He is a very gifted writer and keeps my attention. If you have not read him, he would be worth looking into. But, again, given your knowledge of all things Catalan, perhaps you have. I wish all things good for the outcome of your protest and that these unjustly held people will soon be free. LOVE, PEACE, AND JUSTICE! Be well!
Thank you so much for your great support, Renee! Yes, I know Ruiz Zafón and agree with you that he is an excellent writer.
Truly Beautiful, your words paint such a mystical picture.
Thank you so much, Susan. Love your great comment!
Received another post, ‘My town in Autumn’. I spent some time in Barcelona ‘many, many’ years ago, seems like a life time ago but I remember as if it was yesterday. Beautiful place to live.
This is a piece of art, Marta and so profound and deep words penned.
Thank you so much, Kamal. This comment is very encouraging. I am flattered.
“Soft wind combs the lonely fields of broken dreams”- simple, but oh so captivating!
Thank you again. I like that you say simple and captivating. Guess this is a good combination to reach out to people who are not used to reading poetry.
You are most welcome 🙂 Poetry is an acute awareness and sensitive expression of life, and you do justice to it. Beautiful!
Thank you, Kat. So glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you, Sajal! It makes me very happy that so many of you enjoyed this poem.
Its truly a lovely post.
Wishing You a Great and Happy Christmas.
Merci beaucoup, Bizak. Mon français est mauvais mais je vous ai compris tout. I am glad you have enjoyed this.
likewise to you, Happy New Year!
Thank you so much, Ashwini. Your comment is very encouraging.
And peace be with you and your Marta, look forward to again visiting Barcelona it is 5 years since our last visit.
Thank you, Chris. Peace be with you too. Let me know when you come back to Barcelona. LOVE, PEACE and JUSTICE.
Hello Marta. Beautiful poem which grips on your emotions. It makes remember W.H. Auden’s Funeral Blues!! But you give it such a deep nuance.
Je suis touché par ses mots.
Thank you for this great comment, Saahil! Nice to hear from you again.
Somewhere I find poetry doing that moon catching ! It’s a treat to watch you standing with this poem!
Thank you so much for the follow. I really appreciate this. You are a very talented photographer!
So glad I did, tusen takk!
This is almost dream-like – I got quite lost reading this. Beautiful.
Thanks for the link. I will be sure to look her up. | 2019-04-26T03:37:28 | https://momentsbloc.wordpress.com/2018/12/18/moon-fisherboy-2/ |
I have finally got round to re-opening the cemetery. I did this quietly without much of a fanfare purely because I didn't need the additional stress in my life. Things are quite bad at home, a new year and a fresh start will hopefully go some way to smoothing things over.
I have got about 400 graves up at the cemetery now which is about halfway through. The backlog is still huge with close to 11,000 corpses to process. I might need to expand the cemetery corporation to cope. COME BACK JINKEI WE NEED YOU!
I know I have said it before but this year I am going to try to blog weekly at the bare minimum. I have a few little EVE based projects I want to work on, chiefly my COSMOS item analysis. No promises on time scale.
Please try and get through the back-log, I really want my dearly beloved put back in the cemetery. | 2019-04-22T20:19:48 | http://www.aziaburgi.me.uk/news.php?nid=97 |

It has been an issue that the minerals which are originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjacent countries became finance source of regional violence and human rights invasion. It is called as “Conflict Minerals”. The OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) proposed companies to purchase minerals from responsible supply chains in order to respect human rights and avoid regional conflict.
Based on OECD proposal, ASTRODESIGN, Inc. is committed to ensuring conflict free sourcing of formerly mentioned minerals such as Gold (Au), Tantalum (Ta), Tungsten (W) and Tin (Sn) from our supply chain through close collaboration with our suppliers.

The mistreatment of Palestinians at the hands of their Arab brethren has never been of concern to Abbas and his leadership. They are silent when Palestinians are killed and expelled from their homes in Syria. They are silent when Palestinians face discrimination and apartheid laws in Lebanon. | 2019-04-25T07:49:52 | https://www.blazingcatfur.ca/2018/10/23/palestinian-support-for-saudi-arabia/ |
The Goldner String Quartet is currently undertaking a project to perform in all six of Sydney’s Sister Cities; Portsmouth (England), Wellington (NZ), Guangzhou (China), Florence (Italy), San Francisco (USA) and Nagoya (Japan).
Each program will be individually tailored to the respective Sister-City and will include a work by a composer significant to that country or a collaboration with a locally based performer. All concerts will also feature at least one Australian composition, further enhancing Sydney’s ties with each Sister City.
Sydney Sister Cities – A Musical Celebration!
In Sydney, the GSQ presented a varied concert program incorporating selections of works representing all six countries.
Please check back here periodically – more details added as the project progresses. For further information on our philanthropic drive for this project, please visit our project page on the Australian Cultural Fund website.
Sydney and Portsmouth were proclaimed Sister Cities on 10 December 1984 in recognition of the historic ties between the two cities dating from 1787 when eleven ships under the command of Captain Arthur Phillip, Royal Navy, sailed from Portsmouth harbour to found the colony of New South Wales.
The Goldner String Quartet will perform at the Portsmouth Guildhall in a program specifically designed to showcase these ties.
In celebration of the 21st anniversary of Wellington and Sydney’s sister-city relationship, the Goldner String Quartet and Chamber Music New Zealand have teamed up in co-commissioning NZ composer Gareth Farr to write a new work for string quartet.
The Quartet will premiere the work during their 2013 national tour of NZ, prior to performing the work during forthcoming Australian engagements. | 2019-04-24T14:15:16 | http://goldnerquartet.com/sister-city-project/ |
Join Us & Make a TON with our Affiliate Program.
Thanks for your interest in becoming an affiliate of MovieFinderPro. Our affiliate program is not really a traditional affiliate program per se. It’s more of a partnership.
We deliver ads for ad networks and allow you to use our software to do the same thing. When an end user starts a “download”, the program opens 4 external affiliate links in the users’ default browser. These 4 links are “super links” provided by the ad networks. These links are able to detect the users’ device & platform so they deliver targeted ads.
Because MovieFinderPro is cross platform, there are currently 4 different platforms to make money from. Currently we have Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android builds that you can distribute.
When you sign up to the ad networks through our affiliate/referral links below, you will be able to get your super links. Once you’ve signed up for all the networks below and built all your super links, simply send us an email to “affiliates (AT) moviefinder.pro” and let us know. Once we have checked to make sure you’ve signed up under us, you will send us your super links and we will send you a custom build that contains your affiliate links. You can then host the file on your server or anywhere really.
Before we will even consider you as an affiliate/partner, you must signup to the following networks. The first 4 are CPA (cost per action) networks and one PPI (pay per install) network. In order to be considered, you MUST signup using the links at the bottom of the page, above the footer. Yes, these are referral links and yes we get paid a small percentage of however much you make.
The CPA ads will open in the users’ default browser. For PPI, you will have to build your own links within the network dashboard.
Once you have joined all 5 networks through our referral links below, send an email to “affiliates (AT) moviefinder.pro” along with your affiliate ID’s for each network. Once we’ve verified that you are indeed a referral from us, we will ask you to send your “super links” from each network and we will send you a custom build with your affiliate links embedded in the program.
After you’ve joined the ad networks and sent us all the info, we will send you over a custom build with your affiliate network links inside the actual MovieFinderPro program itself. When a user downloads a movie file, 4 external browser links are opened and these will be your affiliate ads. Each network will get an impression for every file downloaded. Imagine if you could get just 100K installs. That would be 400k impressions if each user only downloaded one movie file. Get it?
Can I distribute MovieFinderPro using a PPI network?
Yes you may, but restrictions apply…..
First, they must have a referral program that we can join and you must sign up under us in order for us to give you a custom build. Second, the network must be legit and not deliver virus programs, malware, or spyware. Third, you must seek approval prior to promoting.
Pay per install networks are fine to use but you must contact us first and sign up under our affiliate/referral links.
Why choose CPA over PPI?
CPA, or “cost per action” is the method we chose for monetizing, versus the always popular model of PPI or “pay per install”. Why did we choose CPA over PPI?
CPA means you can get paid over and over and over and over again as long as that user keeps the software installed. It’s a recurring income, unlike “pay per install” programs. Not only that, but a lot of PPI affiliate programs only pay you one time and have a tendency to “shave” their installs. We are open to PPI, but only with a limited amount of companies.
We would rather make $10/user over the course of a year or two than to make $1.00 per install immediately. This way is more money for all of us.
How does MovieFinderPro make money?
We make money by referring “YOU”, to ad networks. When you sign up under us, we make anywhere from 5%-10% of whatever you make. We also make money from ads inside the software.
We scratch your back, you scratch ours. We give you a super awesome software to promote and it’s a software that your users will love and use a lot. With high user retention, your/our income increases. It’s very feasible to make an average of $10/user since it’s a CPA model.
Can I bundle other apps with MusicFinderPro?
No, absolutely not. If we find out that you’re doing this, we reserve the right to cancel our agreement with you and update your custom build to reflect our affiliate ids.
HOWEVER, we might be open to this under special circumstances. If you want to do this and you feel it will benefit both of us, send an email to [email protected].
Can I choose different ad networks for links on my custom build?
YES! If you choose not to signup for the above referenced ad networks, that’s perfectly fine, HOWEVER, there are certain rules.
The networks you choose to promote MUST have an affiliate program that pays affiliates for referrals. The is required. It’s one of the ways we pay the bills.
You must sign up under us as a referral.
Ads must be comparable to the current ad networks.
That will depend on how many installs you get and the quality of those installs. It will be dependent upon other things too, such as offers available, global location of install, device of install, etc. Because MovieFinderPro is a software that users will keep using, the likelihood of making several dollars per install is pretty high. However, it will depend on your installs.
How you get paid is by the individual ad networks. We don’t pay you anything actually. We offer you the avenue to deliver ads to millions of users (depending on the amount and quality of installs you get with your custom build) and make recurring commissions by delivering our software to your users. The more people that download your custom build, the more money you will make. We prefer a “rev-share” type model of affiliate program as opposed to a PPI (pay per install) model.
Depending on the ad network, some pay daily, others bi-weekly, others monthly, and yet others have custom payment options.
Some pay via Paypal, Payza, Bitcoin and wire transfer. Check each individual ad networks’ payment options for more information. | 2019-04-25T20:35:30 | http://moviefinder.pro/affiliates/ |
Yesterday Melbourne Op Shop Tours hosted a whirlwind second hand tour through Melbourne's inner South-East as part of the St Kilda Strip Fest. A relatively large group were whisked through St Kilda's finest Op Shops and a Vintage Store.
It is not uncommon to find lemon's for sale in Australian Op Shops, but chilli's are certainly not found as frequently!
The finale of the tour ended with a quick tram ride from St Kilda to Windsor, reaching a section of Chapel Street renowned for its second hand treasure shops.
A brand new Melbourne Op Shop has opened its temporary doors in the strip where thrifty stores are in abundance; the Pop Up Op Shop.
The Pop Up Op Shop has a good vibe that exuberates through its three rooms, attracting new shoppers and bringing former shoppers back. When a shop has a good feeling, not only is it one that you wish to return to, but also one that you recommend to others.
Second hand stores that do not conjure up the same feeling still serve their purpose, but do not hold the same attraction that make a shopper want to stay a while longer then they usually would.
You may be able to relate to what I am talking about, or think I’m completely bonkers, but I find there are certain thrifty shops that make me want to return to, purely based on a feeling. If only one could bottle the good shop vibe and sell it! I'll be back to the Pop Up Op Shop, and hope to write a little more about it next time.
Readers, are there certain stores that you choose over others, purely based on a feeling they conjure up when you shop there? If so, I'd love to hear about them.
How was your weekend? Did you find any treasures?
I know exactly what you mean....so does that make me bonkers too???
But some are over-priced, or the staff are snooty, while others are friendly and welcoming...they are the ones I return back to again and again.
They look like great shops,and that sewing machien is beautifull just to look at.
Pitty i live in europe.
There is a particular second hand shop that I frequent and it's because of the smell of the shop. It brings back fond memories of childhood. The items are unique and abundant. I could and have spent hours in there. | 2019-04-20T16:16:19 | http://www.recycled-fashion.com/2013/08/thrifty-shops-with-good-vibe.html |
Finger Eruptions ! Homeopathic medicine for Dyshidrotic eczema ? pompholyx ! | 2019-04-20T11:09:38 | http://salmonfishoil.net/finger-eruptions-homeopathic-medicine-for-dyshidrotic-eczema-pompholyx/ |
It's 2011, and yet we're still sorting through the veracity of the crazier theories of election 2008. Today, Politico and Salon have attempted definitive explanations/debunkings of the most virulent of those political fringe conspiracies: Birtherism and Trig-Trutherism.
What the Conspiracy Is: "Trig Trutherism holds that Trig's real mother is either Bristol Palin or some third party, and that Sarah Palin herself faked the pregnancy to avoid embarrassment for her daughter or for political gain or some combination of reasons," writes Elliott.
Why the Conspiracy Still Exists: People have been making claims that Sarah Palin is not actually the mother of 3-year-old Trig Palin since early 2008. But recently a new academic paper by a journalism professor at North Kentucky University has fanned the flames of the "Palin-hating left" once again.
New Information Added To Debate: Salon conducted "new interviews with multiple eyewitnesses who interacted with a pregnant Sarah Palin up-close in early 2008," including Associated Press and McClatchy news reporters who saw a visibly pregnant Sarah Palin. These "eyewitness accounts should carry more weight than the doubts of bloggers scrutinizing a few photos [of Palin not looking pregnant] posted on the Web," Elliott contends.
You can believe that Palin was wearing a pregnancy suit and Hollywood-quality makeup for weeks, all before she had a national profile. You can believe that she fooled all of those journalists with her pregnancy costume, including the AP reporter who literally inspected Palin's belly in her office. You can believe that Palin, and her entire family, and her doctor, and her disgruntled former aide Frank Bailey, have been lying to the press in a tightly organized and mind-bogglingly elaborate conspiracy. You can believe that the medical workers who were involved in Trig's delivery were paid off or have simply kept inexplicably quiet about the hoax. You can believe that Bristol Palin gave birth to Trig and then had another child just eight months later.
Or you can believe that Trig is Sarah Palin's son.
What the Conspiracy Is: Barack Obama was not born in Hawaii as he says he was and has produced a fake certificate of live birth, making him ineligible to be President. An alternative theory in the same vein: "Obama was born in Hawaii but had a Kenyan father, and his mother was only 18 years old. Therefore, under existing immigration law, he was not eligible for automatic citizenship upon birth," writes Politico.
Why the Conspiracy Still Exists: Have you been paying attention to Donald Trump lately? The man has morphed from media mogul to raging birther. Following Trump's revival of the theory, it "has taken root--a New York Times poll Thursday found that a plurality of Republicans believe it."
New Information Added To Debate: The Politico reporters don't exactly report anything new as much as bring to light the copious amount of information already detailed in order to trace the history of the movement. They dig up, for instance, that the first birther to put his name to the email chain was "Phil Berg, a former Pennsylvania deputy attorney general who had spent the previous years accusing President George W. Bush of complicity in the Sept. 11 attack." They also find that the movement didn't begin in earnest until the Obama campaign tried to debunk rumors in 2008 by releasing a certificate of live birth.
The website World Net Daily, for instance, has written that “Hawaii at the time of Obama’s birth allowed births that took place in foreign countries to be registered in Hawaii.” This is true, but such a birth certificate would show the actual foreign place of birth instead of listing – as Obama’s does — Honolulu.
In addition to declaring the document a forgery, the birther movement’s main response – echoed by the ill-informed Trump - has been to claim that only a “long form” birth certificate can be valid. But the document shown by Obama is the only one the State of Hawaii is permitted, by law, to release. It is accepted as valid by the government entities like the State Department.
Hawaii law prevents the long-form record from being photocopied or released to anyone — including Obama. Obama himself would only be permitted to inspect it – not copy it or post it online. | 2019-04-23T00:45:38 | https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2011/04/trutherism-and-birtherism/349913/ |

Tellurium Q Silver and Silver Diamond mains cables are both are new additions to the Queen’s Award For Enterprise winning company’s product range. The Silver is their entry-level Silver power cable and the Silver Diamond is the top level of their Silver range. They cost £1200 for 1.5m of the Silver and £2200 for the same length of Silver Diamond. Dan Worth takes a listen.
Kimber Kable is 40 years old this year. To mark the occasion, Russ Andrews are introducing a one-off, limited edition version of Kimber’s PBJ analogue interconnect.
British Cable manufacturer are calling their new cables ‘Affordcables’ because they say you can ‘wire a music system (paired with Minuet interconnects) and get change from £500’.
This year, British cable manufacturer Tellurium Q, is supporting the charity Just a Drop, an organisation that works at a grassroots level to help communities around the world with access to sustainable safe water solutions, sanitation facilities and knowledge of safe hygiene practices.
Tellurium Q Ultra Black II Speaker Cable is the latest incarnation of this British company’s Ultra Black cable and costs £310 per metre. Ian Ringstead plumbs it into his system for Hifi Pig.
David Robson takes a listen to Black Cat’s Coppertone speaker cables and matching RCAs costing £276 for a three metre pair and £159 for a one metre pair respectively. Will David be the Cat that got the cream from this relatively budget offering?
JCAT was founded by Marcin Ostapowicz a pioneer of computer audio and co-creator of JPLAY audio software.
Russ Andrews is introducing an inline version of its MiniZap, a noise absorption filter that was originally only available as an optional extra fitted to Kimber interconnect cables.
It’s that time of year again folks, when all thoughts turn to Munich! We are proud to announce that British cable manufacturer, Tellurium Q are sponsoring the Hifi Pig High End Munich 2019 coverage.
British cable manufacturer, Black Rhodium, Polka Classic has been developed from the Foxtrot / Quickstep / Waltz series of cables, just as the original Polka, but with a different approach. Whereas the original Polka had a much larger cable area, Black Rhodium say that the Polka Classic “has been designed especially for classical music with a lesser influence on conductor size and greater emphasis on conductor and material quality”.
Stereolab, LLC (Black Cat Cable) has announced the formation of their ACME subdivision and their first product, the Å19 cable.
Nordost has introduced a newly upgraded disc-set of their System Set-Up & Tuning Disc, offering more content and features than their original disc. | 2019-04-22T23:10:56 | https://hifipig.com/tag/cables/ |

SOCIAL media has forever changed our World Wide Web. It’s changed why we go online, when and where we go online, and even who goes online, and there’s no going back now! Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, blogs, podcasts, and the many other virtual social hubs have become a part of most people’s daily - and in some cases, hourly - lives.
How often have you seen someone glued to their smartphone or tablet on a bus or at your dinner table, or even walking down a busy street?! Some would argue that social media has turned civilization into that zombie apocalypse the movies and TV shows kept warning us about. The lack of manners and conversation is a common modern day pet peeve that is only getting worse as the generation born connected grows up.
Some of the most respected and well-known influencers in Edmonton's social media.
Zombies aside, social media isn’t all that bad. Folks use it to reach out and engage, to spread important messages and share images, and to communicate with family and friends halfway around the world. Others, however, use it to show everyone what they’re about to eat for lunch on a daily basis or notify us when they’re at the gym by snapping a #workoutselfie! Some people just do not have filters (other than the ones on their Instagram shots).
Anyways, Canadians are some of the most active amongst social media sites like Twitter and Facebook, and Edmontonians in particular have become Twitter fiends, even trending the #yeg hashtag nationwide at times. For those who haven’t Googled it yet, YEG is Edmonton’s airport code, and has been an online term we’ve proudly adopted and wholly embraced.
But what I’ve noticed since I joined the Twittersphere is that Edmonton’s Tweeters & Instagramers & bloggers are overwhelmingly positive and supportive of each other, by offering their advice and assistance, or sharing each other’s photos, events, and achievements with their own followers. Just don’t get them started on religion, politics, or #yegtraffic!
Edmontonians are extremely supportive of each other on social media platforms like Twitter and Instagram.
I know that this behavior is clearly not limited to Edmonton, but the fact that I and so many others I’ve talked to can recognize these positive forums and supportive threads proves that Edmonton has a strong and vigilant online community that is not going to tolerate hate, bullying, or any sort of negative commentary...unless granted, of course (i.e. Trump). | 2019-04-25T04:05:01 | http://www.iheartedmonton.ca/2017/03/reason-19-of-101-reasons-why-i-heart.html |
TORONTO, ONTARIO—July 19, 2018—Americas Silver Corporation (TSX: USA) (NYSE American: USAS) (“Americas Silver” or the “Company”) today announced production and operating cost results for the second quarter of 2018 on a consolidated basis and individually for its Cosalá Operations and Galena Complex. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Consolidated silver production for the quarter of approximately 300,000 silver ounces and 1.5 million silver equivalent ounces, representing decreases of 24% and 9%, respectively, when compared to Q1, 2018, and a decrease of 46% and an increase of 24%, respectively, year-over-year.
Consolidated cash costs for the quarter were approximately negative ($6.15) per silver ounce, a decrease of 125% when compared to Q1, 2018 and 185% year-over-year, while consolidated all-in sustaining costs2 (“AISC”) were approximately $5.40 per silver ounce, a decrease of 13% when compared to Q1, 2018 and 49% year-over-year.
Cosalá Operations milled tonnage increased by 13% over Q1, 2018 as San Rafael continued to successfully ramp up both mining and milling rates in the second quarter of commercial production. As a result, silver production increased to approximately 90,000 silver ounces and 1.0 million silver equivalent ounces during the quarter, representing increases of 19% and 10%, respectively, when compared to Q1, 2018. Cash costs were approximately negative ($60.13) per silver ounce and AISC were approximately negative ($41.66) per silver ounce representing a decrease of 15% when compared to Q1, 2018.
As previously announced, Galena Complex production for the quarter was negatively impacted by two separate issues at its No.3 Shaft that inhibited normal hoisting for approximately 27 days in total. As a result, the Complex produced approximately 210,000 silver ounces and 420,000 silver equivalent ounces, representing decreases of 35% and 37%, respectively, when compared to Q1, 2018, and decreases of 34% and 31%, respectively, year-over-year. Cash costs were approximately $18.36 per silver ounce and AISC were approximately $26.77 per silver ounce. The issues impacting second quarter production are not expected to affect production in the second half of the year.
Guidance for 2018 remains unchanged at 1.6 – 2.0 million silver ounces and 7.2 – 8.0 million silver equivalent ounces at cash costs of negative ($10.00) to negative ($5.00) per silver ounce and AISC of negative ($1.00) to $4.00 per silver ounce. The Company expects to release its second quarter financial results on or before August 9, 2018.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7.8 million at June 30, 2018.
Consolidated silver production for the second quarter of 2018 was 301,711 silver ounces which represents a decrease of 24% over the previous quarter and 46% year-over-year. Silver equivalent production was approximately 1.5 million ounces, down 9% over the previous quarter and up 24% year-over-year. The increase in the milling rate achieved at Cosalá Operations was offset by the lower tonnage at the Galena Complex during the quarter. Consolidated cash costs decreased 125% to negative ($6.15) per silver ounce comparted to previous quarter and 185% year-over-year, and AISC decreased 13% to $5.40 per silver ounce compared to the previous quarter and 49% year-over-year. Consolidated zinc production increased by 19% compared to Q1, 2018 and 201% compared to Q2, 2017; consolidated lead production decreased by 18% compared to Q1, 2018. The decreases in silver, silver equivalent, silver grade, and lead production compared to Q1, 2018 are primarily due the issues associated with the No.3 Shaft at the Galena Complex.
1 Cost of sales per silver equivalent ounce, cash costs per silver ounce, and all-in sustaining costs per silver ounce for Q2, 2017 excludes pre-production of 22,549 silver ounces and 32,955 silver equivalent ounces, respectively, mined from El Cajón during its commissioning period. Pre-production revenue and cost of sales from El Cajón are capitalized as an offset to development costs.
The Cosalá Operations produced 94,231 ounces of silver during the second quarter of 2018 and 1,041,246 ounces of silver equivalent during the same period at cash costs of negative ($60.13) per silver ounce and AISC of negative ($41.66) per silver ounce. Silver production increased 19% over the previous quarter while silver equivalent production increased 10% over the previous quarter and 85% year-over-year. Cash costs and AISC were down compared to the previous quarter from negative ($59.52) per silver ounce and negative ($36.28) per silver ounce, respectively, and down significantly year-over-year from negative ($2.81) per silver ounce and negative ($2.81) per silver ounce, respectively. The improved results at San Rafael relative to Q1, 2018 are a result of the increase in milling rate (13%) as the process plant continued to ramp-up operations to targeted levels during the quarter.
As previously announced on June 14, 2018, production at the Galena Complex was negatively impacted by two issues affecting the No.3 Shaft: a 10-day suspension of hoisting in late April to allow the repair of steel sets in the shaft, and a 17-day shutdown of the hoist in June to address a mechanical failure in the brake mechanism. The Complex was temporarily considered to be on care and maintenance for the 17-day shutdown as repairs were performed with certain costs excluded from the cash costs and AISC calculations. Repairs were completed by the end of June 2018 and these issues are not expected to impact production rates for the remainder of the year.
As a result, the Galena Complex produced 207,480 ounces of silver and 420,924 ounces of silver equivalent during the second quarter of 2018 at cash costs of $18.36 per silver ounce and AISC of $26.77 per silver ounce. Silver and silver equivalent production decreased 35% and 37%, respectively, compared to the previous quarter, and decreased 34% and 31%, respectively, year-over-year. Cash costs increased by 60% compared to the prior quarter and 29% year-over-year, and AISC were up 60% compared to the prior quarter and 34% year-over-year.
Cash cost per ounce and all-in sustaining cost per ounce are non-IFRS performance measures with no standardized definition. For further information and detailed reconciliations, please refer to the Company’s 2017 year-end and quarterly MD&A. The performance measures for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 are preliminary throughout this press release subject to refinement from the Company’s second quarter financial results to be released on or before August 9, 2018. | 2019-04-22T00:59:13 | https://americassilvercorp.com/news-releases/2018/americas-silver-corporation-provides-second-quarter-production-and-cost-update/ |

Ginger Dragon is keen to support people who strive to make their community better so when customer Robert White from Beeches Chocolates took part in Ride London 100 we were pleased to support him.
Thank you for supporting me in my Ride London 100 ‘adventure’ writes Robert. I have attached a couple of photos, showing firstly the ‘waves’ of riders at the start outside the Olympic Stadium, (I am in the bottom right hand corner !) and the second is of Adam (youngest son) and myself outside Buckingham Place at the finish.
It was a fabulous event and something that I will never forget for many reasons, some good, some bad, there were many moments of pure elation and a few of doom and gloom, but the thought of riding to raise over £1300 through your support kept me going.
Once again thanks for your donations, support and kind words. | 2019-04-20T16:23:49 | http://www.gingerdragon.com/blog/community-causes-ginger-dragon-supports-robert-from-beeches-chocolates/ |
Around 160 jobs out of 590 at the mill will go as a result, and the move will involve restructuring charges of circa €30m (£25.6m). UPM said closing the machine down would result in savings of €17m a year. Consultation with employees will begin this month.
Winfried Schaur, executive vice president at UPM Communication Papers, pointed to the consistent decline in global paper markets over the past decade: “UPM Communication Papers has responded to this development by selective capacity reductions, always considering the competitiveness of our business – and we will continue to do so in future,” he said.
Production on PM1 and PM11 at Plattling will continue.
This further reduction in capacity comes at a time when a number of other paper manufacturers, including Stora Enso, Lecta and Burgo are in the process of machine closures or conversions.
UPM’s forest-based bioindustry businesses include pulp, paper, wood, biofuels and biomaterials. The Finland-headquartered group had overall sales of €10.5bn last year. | 2019-04-20T15:07:52 | https://www.printweek.com/print-week/news/1167328/upm-culls-coated-mechanical-machine |

After more than a decade of on-off development, Nioh is finally making its way to shelves this week. This action RPG, set in 17th century Japan, undoubtedly takes inspiration from Dark Souls. However, it sets itself apart thanks largely to Team Ninja’s knack for clever combat systems. Even better, the developers let players decide whether to prioritize the responsiveness of 60fps or the additional visual fidelity granted by halving the frame rate.
On our sister site IGN, Nioh earned an “Amazing” score of 9.6/10. Chloi Rad, the reviewer, praised the breadth of content, the fleshed-out world, and the superb combat system. And the kudos don’t stop there – many other outlets have spoken highly of this take on the Souls formula. Based on 37 aggregated reviews on Metacritic, Nioh currently has a metascore of 87/100.
With methodical combat, demanding boss encounters, and the ability to summon co-op partners, it’s tempting to write off Nioh as yet another Souls-like. But if you look closely, it’s abundantly clear loads of care and thought went into crafting Nioh as its own entity. From Software popularized this particular style, but this isn’t just a cash grab clone from Koei Tecmo.
Back in spring of 2016, the public got to play a nice chunk of Nioh with a limited alpha build. Back then, it allowed players to pick between a 720p60 mode or a 1080p30 mode. This was well before the launch of the PS4 Pro, so this kind of toggle on a console game was still pretty novel. But with the release of the final game, the rendering options are much, much more complicated.
On both PS4 and PS4 Pro, players can choose between three different options: Movie mode, variable movie mode, and action mode. The first mode caps the frame rate to 30fps to boost the resolution, the second attempts to balance the frame rate and resolution, and the third mode makes compromises in order to stay at 60fps.
Unsurprisingly, the results vary wildly between the base hardware and the PS4 Pro. The Digital Foundry team got to work pixel-counting, and found a huge variety of resolutions on display. On the base PS4 with action mode enabled, the resolution jumps anywhere from 1280×720 all the way up to 1600×900 at times. On the Pro, action mode usually allows for a nice 1080p resolution, but can drop as low as 720p on occasion.
Meanwhile, the movie mode on the vanilla model does crank up the resolution to 1080p, but the frame rate is halved, and some serious judder is introduced. The Pro‘s movie mode ranges from 1440p to 2160p, and benefits from improved shadows, but the frame rate and judder issues remain.
With variable movie mode, the compromise option, things can get a bit unwieldy. You’ll benefit from the increased resolution of movie mode, but the 30fps cap is removed. Digital Foundry seems to think that the unstable frame rate exacerbates the judder, so steer clear of this mode if you value fluidity in the least.
While a native 4K resolution at 60fps would be lovely, that’s just not a realistic expectation on Sony’s hardware. And since a PC release is nowhere in sight, it seems that action mode on the PS4 Pro is our best bet for the time being. | 2019-04-26T08:18:52 | https://www.extremetech.com/gaming/243943-nioh-lets-player-decide-matters-frame-rate-fidelity |

I have written approval from my AYSO Regional Commissioner to coach a PSC team.
Please indicate that you have read and agree to abide by each of the following AYSO Philosophies.
EVERYONE PLAYS – Our goal is for kids to play soccer, so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least half of every game.
POSITIVE COACHING – Encouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment by the players and ultimately leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players.
GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP – We strive to create a positive environment based on mutual respect, rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude, and our program is designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.
PLAYER DEVELOPMENT – We believe that all players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as a member of a team, in order to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
OPEN REGISTRATION – PSC requires that any player is eligible to apply for PSC. Players not selected are guaranteed placement on a team in one of the AYSO standard primary programs..
If accepted I agree to prepare a team budget prior to each season and submit it to PSC for approval.
I am in Good Standing with the following organizations. Select all that apply.
AYSO is a volunteer-based organization. AYSO remains committed to the belief that volunteers, unified by the vision and mission of AYSO and dedicated to the AYSO philosophies can, and do, deliver a high quality experience for their players and their families. AYSO’s volunteer foundation ensures that it’s all about what’s good for kids.
Volunteers makes AYSO and PSC very affordable. It takes thousands of hours to run a successful region; with registration, team formation, uniform distribution, scheduling, coaching, refereeing, instructing, mentoring, organizing try-outs, field set up and breakdown and playoffs; just to name a few.
PSC parents know the benefits of the AYSO programs. Your parents are among the most knowledgeable and experienced volunteers we have; many are coaches, referees or board members. Encourage them to remain involved with the AYSO Standard Play Programs as instructors, mentors, and board members. It is vital that we retain the knowledge and pass it on to the next generation of passionate AYSO Volunteers.
PSC families are expected to support their Region by volunteering no less than ten (10) hours per family, per year. | 2019-04-18T12:33:10 | https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdpBjgr31Qpf2bQXqNmWAJBLefVFB-8KPFbamIGozfw5wuOrA/viewform |

Back when all these WordPress talks and blogging jargon were foreign to me, I set out to make my very first free-hosted blog in Blogger with the aim to chronicle my preparations for my little man’s very first birthday. It took me quite a while and loads of tutorials courtesy of Google to learn the ropes and create a post and develop my blog to what it is now.
I was pouring endless hours to learn the ins and outs of Blogger and I was having fun. I joined numerous memes and giveaways, and wanted every single pretty badge I see on my sidebar! I must say I have gone a long way and I ought to give myself a pat on the back for a job well done. Writing is my first love and finding a great avenue for the creative juices is just serendipitous. Finding ways to earn through my blogs is an additional delightful bonus!
Read blogging guides, tutorials, and videos. It is best to come prepared and armed, do this by getting as much knowledge and information about the subject. If you have blogger friends, all the better, since you can always go them for tips and tricks, but study on your own, too.Tutorials are easy enough to understand, so read, read, read!
Choose whether you’d like to have a self-hosted blog or go for a free blog. Either way is good, depending on your pockets, if you’d go for your own domain and a self-hosted blog, you will have to shell out a few dollars to do so. If you cannot afford it yet, you can always settle for free domain and hosting offered by Blogger, WordPress or the likes. You can always transfer to your own self-hosted domain when you are ready!
Blog away. Blogging takes heart and dedication, so be sure to miss a few precious nights’ of sleep while tinker on your blog and update it as often as you can and get your thoughts out there into the brave new world!
Traffic, monetizing and gazillions of followers will come to you in due time, meanwhile, get those keyboards and fingers working and prepare for some serious elbow grease.
It’s definitely preferable to host the blog on your own domain. And if you choose WordPress there are plenty of useful plugins, such as for SEO, an editorial calendar etc. | 2019-04-21T17:46:59 | http://www.mum-writes.com/2012/03/tips-on-how-to-start-a-blog/ |
As you know by now, I moved in October of last year and I’ve not stopped decorating since. I wanted a larger place with extra rooms that I could fix up for the grandkids when they come to visit. I now have a combo of youth and teens. My new bachelorette pad has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It seems to be triple in size compared to my last apartment. I tried the tiny living faze by downsizing but that was a disaster. I just couldn’t embrace it with the enthusiasm I had going into it. I had one closet versus the 7 I have now. And they’re all full but that’s a whole other post.
I wanted to fix a room for the girls first because they’re here more than Tyler who now has a vehicle, is driving, and working part-time (if that doesn’t make me feel old, nothing will). I couldn’t really decide on the color scheme for their rooms so I started doing some research on Pinterest for teen rooms. I bought the beds first and then I decided to buy a new évolur rug and pull colors out of it for the decor. That worked perfectly. They’re rarely here at the same time so I could have gotten away with one bed but I wanted them to have their own bed and to know it was only theirs. I love how everything is coming together and the kids really love the rug. It’s soft, it’s silky, it makes a great hang out place when they’re hanging out in their new room. I think it’s their favorite thing in the room.
I have gotten so many compliments on my new rug that I’m searching for one for the next bedroom, or teencave as Tyler likes to call it. They have rugs for babyhood and beyond at an affordable price so it will not break my bank to buy another one. I was really surprised to learn that they also now have a brand new évolur Home Collections which includes cribs and mattresses, twin and full-size beds, in case you’re in the market. My baby days are definitely over, lol. If you’re not in the market for baby furniture but love unique decor, be sure to check out all of the rugs they have available. I always recommend this company for their rugs to friends and family members because it’s fun to have rugs that no one else has seen before which becomes a focal point in any room.
I’m going to share some photos of the bedroom I am working on and when it’s complete, I’ll post updated photos on this post. Be sure to bookmark it and keep checking back. I got in some wall decals today that I ordered from Etsy and I plan to put them up sometime this week. I’m obsessed with wall decals. It’s an easy way to add eye candy without putting holes in my walls.
The rug I purchased is called Spilled Flowers. Don’t you love it?
Thank you. I’ve always loved butterflies as well.
I agree with Michael that it goes with the surroundings. I love the design. So chic.
how pretty is this! the colors really gave the room a good lift!
WOW! What a beautiful room transformation. I absolutely love it! Great job on getting the right stuff to fit it all in one space.
So much of effort is being put in making the room and the result is pretty cute. 🙂 The colors and stuff all in the right place.
It looks thick and matches the surrounding. Great pick for the room!
I love that rug! This would be so pretty in my bedroom and I love the butterflies on it. | 2019-04-20T06:33:33 | https://shabbychicboho.com/spring-bling-evolur-rugs/ |

I’d like to confess to something that only a select group of friends and family, including my husband and parents, know. Oh, and the listeners of a university radio station in whom I confided when the weight of my action became too much to handle alone. A few years ago, on a bike ride with a friend, I killed a frog. There was really nothing I could do to prevent it, at least that’s what I’ve had to start telling myself in order to sleep at night. It was on the path and I was going very fast. I didn’t see it until it was too late. Then I had to continue seeing it as my wheel spun in front of me. If it hadn’t been me it might have been funny.
This evening found me on another bike ride. A bike ride that was all round much bumpier, slower and took more effort than it would have if I’d had the foresight to pump up my tires before I left. I considered asking one of the passing cyclists if I could borrow a pump, but sadly I am totally incapable of interacting with strangers in that way, so I ploughed on. I realise I could also have turned round and gone back home but where’s the fun in that?
I had a very romantic idea of cycling along to the nearest town, pulling up at a pub with an area out the front for me to sit in the evening sun and having a refreshing glass of coke. I’d prop up my bike, pop inside, helmet unclipped but still on my head, comment to the bartender about the pleasant evening, raise a glass to other outdoorsy people around me and head back outside to sit with my bike, not because I was worried it would be stolen, oh no! But because I wanted to take a perfectly filtered picture to add to my blog post about how wonderful it is to be alive. My dreams were dashed as the only pubs I saw proudly advertised their wide screen TVs and surround sound for all your footballing needs and, thoughtfully, as little pavement as possible outside. I imagine this is to give their patrons as little a way to stumble to a taxi as possible, after their team loses the match.
Something I’ve realised from living in Norwich is that, even though some drivers are totally mad and completely incapable of driving, people are at least fairly accustomed to the sight of someone on a bike. Tonight’s route had me cycle on the road for a very short amount of time, not enough to get up any real speed, and I was on a fairly narrow and winding road so drivers behind me were forced to drive slowly rather than speed past me. I indicated to come off the road and the driver behind me actually came to an almost complete stop to allow me to make what was essentially a U turn back onto the cycle path. She was also kind enough not to laugh at me when, after taking my hand from the handlebar to thank her, I almost rode directly into a post. | 2019-04-24T11:08:15 | https://beccymundy.wordpress.com/tag/travel/ |
Did you know that the Municipality of Northern Bruce Peninsula declared itself a Dark Sky community on Aug 23 of 2004? In essence this means that the Municipality realizes the unique beauty of the night sky as viewed from the Northern Bruce Peninsula and will now provide leadership to other communities in preserving it. This involves retrofitting existing lighting in the community to use dark sky friendly fixtures and also reviewing future developments in the community to ensure they also are dark sky friendly.
Sky glow from beyond the borders of the Preserve will be of comparable intensity, or less, to that of natural sky glow. | 2019-04-24T06:42:58 | http://www.greenoughharbourcommunity.ca/about-us/newsletters/dark-skies-in-the-northern-bruce-peninsula/ |
Poor old Scotland. You’d think that after the highs and lows of the referendum, someone would cut them a break – but no. In a stunning (but not entirely unexpected) move, Jim Murray, the world’s foremost whisky expert, has declared the Yamazaki Single Malt Sherry Cask the best damn tipple money can buy, in the 2015 edition of the World Whisky Bible.
He wasn’t exactly holding back the praise, either. Describing it as ‘near indescribable genius’, he said the whisky had ‘a nose of exquisite boldness’ and a finish of ‘light, teasing spice’ – overall, he gave it 97.5 marks out of 100. This is the first time that a Japanese whisky has ever been awarded the title, and to further rub it in, no Scottish whisky made it into the top five. Second and third place were secured by the American bourbon William Larue Weller and Sazerac Rye 18 Year Old respectively. | 2019-04-19T12:22:16 | https://www.mansworldindia.com/news/banzai/ |
The White Rose Witches are three sisters who have moved from America back to the home of their great grandmother in Cornwall, UK. The three white witches keep their eyes open for items which they believe have power and run an interesting store on Etsy to trade.
You can visit the White Rose Witches store here.
Three of the witches’ current stock are described as haunted but helpful. Let’s take a look.
Learn more about this ring.
This item is one of the most powerful and wondrous items we have ever had in our collection. An item of true beauty and dazzling energy. A very grounded but extremely powerful item that will work wonders for the right person. Very very loyal and true of spirit, likely intended for a sole practitioner, someone connected to the earth and animals with a great sensitivity to nature and the wild energies for the four elements. The spirit within is extremely loyal and will be your companion through thick and thin. A true rarity.
This item is an amazing ring with a wonderful Angel spirit. Wonderful for children for protection or for an adult pure of heart for clarity. The energy is so beautifully clear and cool. A calm presence to ease burning pain, quick temper, or nervous temperament.
This item is a beautiful and positively charged pendant with a strong connection to a guardian angel like spirit named Kathreena. There is a healing energy and I believe this is intended for someone who not only needs a healing energy themselves but is in a care position and will share with others the beautiful white light energy that flows steadily from this pendant. This item is safe for all, including children. And I will include a lovely blessing ritual that can be performed for a calm bonding experience.

“Freshman Comp.” The very words strike fear and loathing into the hearts of many. If you’re among those who detest writing and reading and would rather climb Mount Everest than write a ten page research paper, never fear. Since everyone has to take Freshman Composition at just about any Liberal Arts school in the nation, there are a few basic rules that you can follow to get you through it successfully. Success, by the way, in Freshman Composition can give you a big boost in other classes down the road, since almost every class has some kind of writing component. Here are a few tips to get through your first college writing class.
Read it aloud. The first time you do this, you will inevitably feel like a complete idiot. You can alleviate this sensation by reading your composition aloud to someone, preferably someone who has to read his or her composition aloud to you, too, which makes it much less embarrassing. The main advantage of reading your piece aloud is that you’ll hear mistakes that you wouldn’t have seen if you were reading in your head. Lots of times people write a grammatically-incorrect sentence that they would never say out loud, and actually saying the sentence out loud will help you catch your problem quicker.
A social science paper outline should first be developed. This is also known as a blueprint. It helps the writer to arrange their thoughts and makes the research paper logical. All the points of the blueprint should be related on the chosen topic. If the writer has any guides, he should ask for guidelines from them. During the researching process, it is advisable for the writer to take notes.
There are 3 really useful steps that pop over to this website in addition to your academic becoming successful can come soon you can take before writing your essay. They’re designed to prevent writer’s block, at the three places where it usually occurs.
Once a wise man said, “Let there be custom written research papers!”. And they were. Then he said, “Let there be no plagiarism!”. But it didn’t work quite like he planned. If it did, at least half of the lawyers would’ve lost their jobs.
At the other hand, if you like to play with kids, you can become a good sports instructor. So if you pursue a career of your choice you will stay happy. You will find that essaywritingagency.com has been specializing in essay writing for quite some time. Same goes to the college essays. If you want to excel the art of college essay writing you have to enjoy doing it.
Many are looking for someone to write a buy research paper for them. Lets face it, ever since middle school, the term buy research paper just sort of makes you start dreading the task ahead. So now many who have the means to pay someone to do this for them are doing just that.
Exploiting arguments on an issue also helps. For instance, the existence or non existence of UFOs is still widely debated. As such, if you want to argue your views on such a topic, a careful examination of ideas for and against this issue should be well looked at.
That’s it for now. These tips are short but powerful. If you make them your own, they’ll change your writing style for the better forever, increasing your GPA instantly. | 2019-04-25T16:00:14 | http://www.juvancecosmetics.com/academic-writing-services-essaywritingagency-com/ |

Too many personal injury lawyers believe that the ticket to a good income is a large quantity of clients. While you certainly need an adequate number of clients, thinking solely about quantity is not going to change your law practice, or your life, for the better. Instead, when you think about how to get personal injury clients your focus should be on the quality of those cases rather than just the quantity.
Income. You may make more money by looking for higher quality cases.
Time. You may be able to make more money in less time. You might have more time for yourself, your family, and your other interests.
Enjoyment of the law. If you get rid of the cases, and clients, that cost you the most headaches, you might find that you really enjoy being a lawyer.
Ready to Learn How to Get Personal Injury Clients for Your Small Law Firm?
Does a higher income, more time for yourself, and more satisfaction from the practice of law sound good to you?

MANILA, Philippines — The Department of National Defense on Thursday said that they would look into the claims of retired Marine colonel Ariel Querubin that former president Gloria Arroyo had arbitrated in behalf of the Ampatuans when authorities seized a cache of high-powered firearms in 2006 that was meant for the powerful political clan’s private army.
According to DND spokesman Eduardo Batac, Querubin’s narrative was a welcome development for the military and the defense department, adding that the amnesty committee, tasked to review the applications of rebel soldiers for the reprieve granted by President Benigno Aquino III, would look into the latest allegations.
“This is a welcome development as far as the department and the AFP [Armed Forces of the Philippines] are concerned so that further action can be initiated as far as that report is concerned. What will happen is the amnesty committee will have to look into this and submit a separate report to the secretary of national defense with regard to this particular narrative that was submitted by Colonel Querubin, and of course there will have to be official action on this,” Batac told reporters.
However, Batac admitted that the Department of National Defense (DND) is currently burdened by several issues, particularly allegations of corruption, which are being investigated by the Senate and Congress, and the stalled modernization program.
“What’s happening right now is the department is already saddled with a lot of investigations and yet we are trying to speed up things like the modernization program which, in the last 15 years, has accomplished only 10 percent of it. We’d like to be able to accomplish so much more within the term of President Aquino,” the DND spokesman said.
“Whatever personalities or whatever offices are involved, we’ll have to look into this but we really have to find a way so that all these urgent matters can be attended to,” he added.
Querubin, a recipient of the military's highest combat honor, delivered the narrative Tuesday when he filed for amnesty. Querubin was among those implicated in various failed power grabs against former President Arroyo.
In his testimony, Querubin said Arroyo had allegedly helped former Maguindanao governor Andal Ampatuan Sr. when a large cache of firearms, believed to have been intended for the political clan’s private army, were intercepted by the military in 2006. | 2019-04-24T18:00:31 | http://zamboangajournal.blogspot.com/2011/02/dnd-to-look-into-retired-marines.html |

Hugo Weaving (Elrond) is another actor who has been rumored but yet to be confirmed as an official cast member for The Hobbit. We have reported the great speculation and how indeed there have been talks on both sides, but still there remains nothing official.
About an hour ago I received news from one of my more reputable spies, and he has reported seeing Hugo Weaving here in Wellington this afternoon, shopping at Common Sense Organics, the fruit and vege market in Wakefield Street… it’s probably a bit too hasty to assume that he’s here to be in The Hobbit, but I can’t think of any other reason why he would come here right now, just when they’re discussing Rivendell scripts. It’s certainly not for the weather (it’s howling a cold southerly gale out there at the moment).
This would make a lot of sense, considering that only a few days ago, Peter Jackson publicly said during his Easter break that upon return they had “Rivendell Scenes Coming Up.” If this is the case, we may not hear official confirmations for roles of Elijah Wood and Orlando Bloom for sometime now. We will keep you updated. | 2019-04-18T18:44:06 | http://the-hobbitmovie.com/hugo-weaving-spotted-in-new-zealand/ |
THE GUARDIAN. French energy group Total said on Sunday it expects to be prosecuted over a large gas leak at a North Sea oil rig in 2012.
A report into the incident at the Elgin platform, which lasted seven weeks and led to a one-year shutdown, was passed to the prosecution authorities in Scotland by the Health and Safety Executive after a two-year investigation, the Guardian reported on Friday.
The HSE refused to comment on the report's contents. A Total spokesman said on Sunday night: "The report recommends proceedings are taken against the company for breaches of the Health & Safety at Work Act and the Offshore Installations and Wells Regulations." | 2019-04-26T01:55:19 | https://wognews.net/news/2014/3/total-expects-prosecution?lang=ru |

If you're so broke that you must stoop to buying a card that screams "economy!" on the front, then you're better off making one from bubblegum wrappers, or not sending one at all.
Cheekily, the message inside reads "My love for you is priceless!"
It's not a case of being broke. It's a case of having a sense of humour.

When it comes to garage door installations, All Right Garage Doors believe homeowners have every right to know the process of the installation for their home! We do not recommend making this a DIY project because there are accompanying hazards. For example, torsion spring systems are under extreme tension and are dangerous to alter if the person is unfamiliar with how to properly handle the springs. Additionally, if the garage is not properly installed, this could cause dangerous situations when opening and closing the garage.
Different types of garage door styles and materials will change the process of installing a garage door, but we will be discussing the basic concepts for steel sectional garage door installations.
Before installing a new garage door and removing the old one, we will measure the height and width of the garage door as well as the backroom (length of the garage) and the headroom (from the top of the garage opening to the ceiling). The ideal amount of backroom space is the door height plus 18 inches, and the ideal headroom space is 10-12 inches. The space is needed for installation as well as for the garage door when it is open.
Once we have the measurements, we will work with you to pick out your new garage door for installation. If your backroom or headspace isn’t within the ideal measurements, there are special garage doors you can choose from. Check out our recent blog for a guide to picking a new garage.
After we ensure the old garage door completely closed, we will then disconnect it from the trolley/opener. The next step is to remove the garage door springs. After removing the springs, the door panels need to be removed one at a time, starting from the top. We’ll unscrew the hinges on either side of each panel and detach from the track.
Then, we will attach rubber weather stripping to a panel, which will be used as the bottom panel. This will ensure that your garage is insulated well and is fully sealed after the doors are installed. After the weather stripping is attached, we will install the brackets on both sides of the bottom panel and insert it into the door frame. The rollers will be placed into the hinges and brackets to keep the panel in place. Using a level, we will ensure the door is perfectly leveled, even if the floor isn’t. This is because if the door isn’t leveled, the garage will not be able to open properly. The weatherstripping will close up any gaps between the door and floor.
The next step of the garage door installation is very similar to the previous step. We’ll install the brackets and hinges on the 2nd door panel and insert the section into the door frame above the bottom panel. Then, we’ll insert the rollers to keep the panel in place and then repeat with the remaining door panels.
Once all the garage door panels are in place, we tighten the rollers and hinges to the track. The trick is to not to tighten the rollers too tight, as they will need to be able to freely move up and down the track without friction.
Afterward, we’ll ensure the vertical track is securely tightened into the wall and then begin installing the upper tracks. We, then, connect the vertical and upper tracks, then attach the track to perforated angle irons to keep the tracks in place. We’ll use a level to ensure the track is even and the door will open at 90 degrees.
Depending on the proper accompanying springs and cables, this process will vary. But rest assured, All Right Garage Doors will install the springs and cables properly and ensure your safety. After all the springs, cables, hinges, and brackets are attached, we’ll connect the garage door opener to the new garage door and lubricate the metal parts of the garage door system as necessary and open the garage automatically.
If you are looking for professional garage door installation in the Orange County area, All Right Garage Doors offers professional services at a cost-effective price. We proudly serve Irvine and the surrounding Orange County area with the highest quality of work in the industry.

Alexander Montessori School has offered both Spanish Immersion and daily Spanish instruction for our Preschoolers since 1985.
We are excited to offer our Preschoolers the opportunity to join our expanded world-class Spanish Immersion Program offered on two of our campuses in five of our nine Preschool classrooms. This program, delivered in two different models, will help our students become better learners and thinkers, and will teach them to excel in connecting to the world around them. We’ve found that if children see themselves as part of the bigger picture in the world, and they have the resources to engage in different cultural environments, they will grow to be more successful and well-rounded teenagers and adults.
A child has the capability to learn a language eight times faster than an adult, and that is why we offer our Spanish Immersion Program to our Preschoolers. As a child enters puberty and beyond, the brain becomes less flexible, making the process of learning another language even more difficult. The social, emotional, and physiological changes at this pre-teen and teen age coupled with what will be for many, finding their way in a new school are also not ideal for taking on a new language.
When children are exposed to a second language early on in life, there is a greater chance that they will absorb and retain that language, and potentially go on to master additional languages. We are living in an increasingly more global economy, meaning that speaking a foreign language is an invaluable skill, and an asset that will give any student an edge in a competitive educational marketplace and beyond into their professional lives.
When a child learns a second language at a young age, they are not only broadening their cultural horizons, but also equipping their brain with better tools to excel in the classroom.
Bilinguals and multi-linguals tend to be more creative thinkers than those who only know one language. This translates into better problem-solving skills and more flexible thinking inside the classroom. Students who are able to retain a second language also score higher on testing, and are more innovative and independent thinkers. These are all valued academic traits at Alexander Montessori School.
In a social context, involvement in a language immersion program means that each student has a unique opportunity to engage with a different culture, and come to understand and appreciate the qualities of that culture that make it special. This will better prepare young learners for the complexities of the world they enter into as they get older.
Through our Spanish Immersion Program, our students have a rich cultural and language experience that will give them more confidence in expressing themselves verbally and in writing throughout their academic and professional careers, and in many different social settings.
Learning a second language also provides a greater mental capacity for continuing education and adding a third language or more. Exercising the brain at a young age through language immersion can increase the possibility of becoming multilingual.
Why Alexander Montessori’s Preschool Spanish Immersion Program?
Montessori, at its core, is a multi-sensory approach that is built on individualized instruction. This helps each child learn at his/her own pace, level, and interest.
We have many students and Staff who are bilingual and this helps to surround the children in the target language with many role models, accents, and dialects.
2) Naturalistic Spanish Immersion - bilingual vocabulary development, one adult speaks Spanish all day long with the children, daily group lesson in Spanish along with bilingual books and Spanish songs. | 2019-04-23T19:59:18 | https://www.alexandermontessori.com/academics/preschool-program/preschool-spanish-immersion-program |
It’s time, at last, for my 2013 resolutions, I suppose.
And I do have things I want to focus on getting better at or doing more of this year. I’ll make it short and sweet, though.
First up: Watch more old movies. I’m going to kick off this resolution with the 1959 Alfred Hitchcock movie North by Northwest (which I’ve never seen, but is currently at the top of my Netflix queue). I feel like it’s especially appropriate due to its advertising agency connection.
Three: Read more. I describe myself as a reader, and I definitely love to read, but I’ve been depressingly negligent about reading over the last year or so. I just haven’t made it a part of my routine lately, and I really want to get back into reading rather voraciously (especially since Kevin got me an awesome Kindle for our one-year anniversary last July!). First book for 2013: Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn (author of Gone Girl — which I’ve read, loved, and highly recommend).
Five: Document more. I used to be so good about taking photos of life events — both important ones and everyday ones — but have fallen out of the habit and am now definitively terrible at it. I aim to improve on that in 2013!
Last up: Travel as much as possible. Kevin and I both got awesome new suitcases from my parents for Christmas, so we’re well-equipped for adventures in 2013. We’re usually pretty good at staying on the move and taking advantage of both big and small travel opportunities, and I want to be sure that continues this year as well.
What are you hoping to focus on/improve this year?
I love North by Northwest! Enjoy! You should watch On the Waterfront with Marlon Brando next.
Ooh — thanks for the recommendation, Staci! | 2019-04-23T22:06:30 | https://curiouser-and-curiouser.com/2013/01/11/new-years-resolutions/?replytocom=372 |

While people often overlook the value of their garage door, there are quite some very valuable items that we store there. Just the cars, bicycles, tools, and food in the freezer are enough, but many times we use the garage to store lots of other precious things. Even then, people neglect taking care of the large overhead door protecting their garage until it nearly falls off the hinges. There are a lot of routine maintenance tasks that the homeowner can do and some parts that can be replaced as well, but some garage door service and repairs are better off left to the professionals, let’s take a look.
There are several different styles of doors, some are made of lots of small panels with hinges between them, while others are one huge panel that lifts up all at once. Either way, there are lots of things on a garage door that should be cared for and lubricated regularly. Start with all of the hinges you can find, put a couple of drops of regular lube oil on each one and then wipe off the excess with a shop rag.
Move on to the rollers, their bearings, the tracks, and the chain. There are plenty of movable parts in the mechanics of the door, anywhere that has bearings, like the rollers, should be lubed, possibly with a spray-on lubricator. The tracks where metal meets metal should also have a light coating of oil on them, then take the time to wipe off the excess also. If there is a cable on pulleys or a chain with sprockets, lube that too and then wipe it clean.
Now take either a screwdriver or wrench and test all of the fasteners on the door to ensure that none of them have loosened up. This will take awhile depending on how many there are. The multi-panel doors will have hundreds of screws holding their hinges so be ready for that.
It is possible for an avid do-it-yourselfer to replace the torsion springs that assist when opening and closing the garage door. The typical door probably weighs between 200 and 400 lbs. And these springs wind up and wind down to assist us in the opening and closing the door with ease. The problem arises when the metal, called spring steel, gets fatigued and eventually cracks or breaks from all of the use. Then the spring can quickly burst into several pieces causing damage.
Be careful, since the US Government website says up to 30,000 people are injured by their garage doors each year, mostly because of these springs. You should always replace both springs at the same time since they are of the same age and have been used the same, the second one will soon break just like the first one did. You should call a local garage door service company if you have any qualms about doing this dangerous work yourself. Take the pressure off the springs by opening the door and carefully remove the old spring and place in the new one. Each door is going to be different so follow the instructions that come with the springs for best results.
If you have any doubts at all about being able to do this, by all means, seek professional help from an overhead door contractor. There are special tools that only repairmen have that can hold the springs safely until they’re in place and then release them. You can also watch some Youtube videos to help you see exactly how it’s done safely as well.
The idea of getting married at the Grand Canyon can be both romantic and unique. Outdoor weddings also offer a certain charm that you cannot get with an indoor wedding venue. However, before you rush to Arizona, you need to know what you have to do to ensure you can have your wedding at the Grand Canyon and that it is the perfect day that you want.
Before you get married, there is a lot of paperwork that you need to complete. One piece of paperwork that you need to have is a marriage license. If you want to have your special wedding in the Grand Canyon, you will need to have a marriage license Arizona. Fortunately, getting the license in Arizona is easier when compared to other states.
There is no waiting period for the license, and you will not have to complete any blood tests. If you provide all the correct documentation, you should be able to get married on the same day as you apply for the license. To apply for your license, both parties have to be present; you need a valid government issued photo ID as a proof of age and $76 for the license fee.
All the big state and national parks in Arizona allow weddings, but you need to have a wedding permit before you can use the space. The permit you have to apply for before your wedding is the Special Use Permit. This is an important legal requirement, and you will not be able to hold your wedding at the Grand Canyon without one.
In addition to the permit, you will also need to contact the Grand Canyon National Park to make a reservation. All reservations are on a first-come basis and are subject to a non-refundable reservation fee. The reservation with the park will not be complete until you have paid a deposit.
The Grand Canyon is a very popular wedding destination which is why you need to consider when you are going to have your wedding. Fall and spring are the most popular times of year for this location when it comes to weddings. Summer is a low season in Arizona for weddings, particularly outdoor weddings, and this could be due to the extreme temperatures felt in the desert climate. Also, if you get your timing right you can plan a vortex tour for your wedding party.
It is important that you carefully consider when you want your wedding to be. You should also take into account the changes in the weather at the Grand Canyon and how busy it is likely to be. If you are going to get married in peak seasons, you will need to make a reservation as soon as possible otherwise the venue may not be available.
There are many tips that you need to consider when planning your Grand Canyon wedding. It is very important for you to apply for your marriage license and Special Use permit. Reserving the Grand Canyon for your wedding is also important as this is done on a first come basis. A local wedding specialist like Sedona Red Rock Treks can help you with all the details.

I promised to post the rest of my sneaky desserts with hidden vegetables and here is take two. Chocolate brownies with carrot and spinach puree. I know what you are thinking.
Well the group is called daring bakers for a reason! I think of each challenge as a way to learn as much as possible about the topic, trying outlandish ideas is part of the fun 🙂 I decided to try these brownies, the idea of a healthy brownie is a tempting one. This healthy brownie however comes with a warning.
Just don’t serve them warm — it’s not until they’re completely cool that the spinach flavor totally disappears.
After making the brownies, I would even go further and say, don’t serve these on the first day. When these brownies are warm you can really taste the spinach and the whole texture and taste is off. Give them some time and something magical happens, the spinach disappears completely and the texture becomes fudgy and intensely chocolatey. I was disappointed on the day I made these and was not going to post them but the next day my daughter tried one and loved it so much that she begged for seconds! I tried them and indeed it was as if I was tasting a different brownie!That is something I have noticed many of my fellow daring bakers mention, all desserts made with veggies taste better the next day or after they have cooled completely.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat an 8×8-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the melted chocolate, vegetable purees, sugar, cocoa powder, margarine,cinnamon, cardamom, instant coffee and vanilla, and whisk until smooth and creamy, 1 to 2 minutes.
Pour the batter into the pan and bake 35 to 40 minutes.
Cool completely in the pan before cutting into 12 bars.

I had to read that title two or three times. Really? Spinach? Now carrots I get. It is daring that’s for sure. If you don’t mind Sawsan, I’ll stick to the brownies with beans.
Amazing. Loving these sneaky posts Sawsan! Perfect for the kid’s lunchboxes.
hmmmm… so dont serve them warm !!!!! that’s interesting.. but here’s the thing I dont trust anyone at home to wait that long.. and then they’ll know about the spinach and groan and moan!! hahaa.. but very interesting concept though.. maybe if one has kids ..
Love this! This was a great challenge and it was fun to see what everyone did.
Perfection. I have made brownies with carrot but the spinach is a grand idea! I hope many people try these recipes and get some good nutrients into their diets! You are a great inspiration to many. Thank You for your creativity!
Definitely daring! I mean, I like both spinach and carrots, but in my brownies? Do you promise the spinach taste disappears when they are cooled down?
Wow, spinach and carrots! How creative and healthy recipe!
Would have never guessed spinach. Good idea.
Those brownies look so fudgy and chocolatey! Nice job on the challenge!
I’ve seen brownies with hidden black beans but never carrots and spinach! Genius!
Wow! These are wonderful! Love the creativity. Such an interesting recipe – thanks so much.
Sawsan, these are one of the best cakes with vegetable in disguise that I have seen . I am going to make them.
I would never in a million years thought of “hiding” spinach in brownies or even a combo of spinach and chocolate. This is fascinating and so creative, Sawsan!
Thank you Betsy 🙂 It was a fun challenge, you should see what the other daring bakers did!
Try slicing the brownies in half and making a filling of goat cheese or Labneh. I used Laura Chenels chevre and it was delicious. My Labneh was perfect against the sweetness of the brownie but is better as a frosting.
Wow! Labneh is such an interesting idea! I will have to try that soon!
Hello Chef in Disguise, I find it interesting that you sneak these healthy veggies into these brownies, something I will have to try, but then use margarine. Margarine is NOT healthy. Butter, coconut oil, macadamia nut oil are better. These are healthy fats and will help absorb the nutrition the veggies bring to these brownies. If you don’t believe me, please research this.
You are absolutely right.This post is from a couple of years ago. I no longer use margarine and I need to update the recipe with healthier suggestions. | 2019-04-21T20:42:31 | https://chefindisguise.com/2013/03/28/chocolate-brownies-with-spinach-and-carrots/ |

Mark Synnott will speak about and sign his new book, The Impossible Climb: Alex Honnold, El Capitan, and the Climbing Life, on Thursday, March 7th at 7:30pm.
The climbing community had long considered a "free solo" ascent of El Capitan an impossible feat hardly worth thinking about. When Alex Honnold topped out at 9:28 am on June 3, 2017, the world gave a collective gasp. His friend Tommy Caldwell, who free climbed (with a rope) the nearby Dawn Wall, called Alex's ascent "the moon landing of free soloing." The Impossible Climb is an emotional drama driven by people exploring the limits of human potential and seeking a perfect, dialed-in dance with nature. | 2019-04-22T22:23:12 | http://boulderbookstore.d7.indiebound.com/event/mark-synnott-impossible-climb |
The Carwins' plan is in motion. After some solid time on the silver screen, the family can afford to move into a house across town! They've got enough left over after the move that Saint decides it's time to live like a celebrity! Making their return from The Sims 1 and The Sims 2, butlers finally are here in The Sims 3 Late Night!
Butlers have lost a few of their habits from previous iterations of the game. This time, they are glorified, live-in maids. They don't repair anything that breaks, and they don't even call repairmen. They do serve as baby-sitters and house-sitters if the adults are away and don't want to take the kids, and they'll cook meals at lunch and dinner time. They'll even put the leftover meals away afterwards, so you'll never have to worry about wasting food again.
Because butlers live with you, you need to prepare a bed first, which Saint does here by sticking a cheap one in the garage. Strictly speaking, you do not have to buy a bed: given no other option, the butler will just sleep on the couch. However, the butler is his own entity with his own happiness. If he remains upset for too long, and if the family just ignores him, he might quit. You don't need to make him your best friend, but butlers need a little attention and socialization.
Butlers cost $1200 per week, and will collect their pay after seven days from the date of hire, then every seven days afterwards, or whenever you fire him. If you can't afford to pay him, he'll just legally steal something from your house to cover the difference like any other serviceperson. At $1200, he's more expensive than a maid ($875 over seven days), but because he's there all day, he more than makes up for it.
You can have both a maid and butler employed at the same time, but generally speaking the cost isn't worth it. The butler does everything the maid does, so oftentimes if you have both, the maid will arrive and immediately leave without anything to do. Consider ending your maid service if you pick up a butler.
Strangely, butlers do not do laundry. They'll gather laundry and toss them in the appropriate hampers, but they usually won't run the washer. You might see butlers run the washer once (when they first join your family), but they usually won't.
Butlers tend to completely disappear sometimes, which is incredibly annoying. It's as bad as if they quit, but you receive no notification. Worse still, you can't just fire them over the phone; firing a butler has to be done in person, and you can't fire him if he's completely disappeared.
Normally, when you click the butler's bed, you have an interaction called "Unset Butler's Bed." If the cheat code worked, Bertram's bed would no longer acknowledge Bertram sleeping there; that option wouldn't be on the pie menu.
If it worked, Bertram will immediately reset. After about ten in-game minutes (about eight to ten real-time seconds), the game will acknowledge that you've lost your butler. At that point, you can call up the services list and hire a new one, who might be the same as the old one. | 2019-04-21T22:43:59 | https://www.ign.com/wikis/the-sims-3/Butlers |

Sustainability efforts can be seen in nearly everything Gibson Electric does. The Gibson Electric team has extensive experience with sustainability-focused projects such as installing and servicing solar photovoltaic equipment, electric vehicle charging stations, and various energy-savings systems.
Gibson Electric is also on the cutting edge of a number of quickly growing sectors of electrical construction, a member of the Illinois Solar Energy Association (ISEA), and is an ICC-certified installer (part 462).
The Illinois Power Agency Act of 2007 requires 25% of Illinois to be sourced by renewable energy by the year 2025.
Initial projects have been of the wind farm variety in rural areas, but this has only provided a fraction of the total required demand.
With the decreasing cost of solar panels and utilities increasing incentives for peak times and beyond, the economics of solar installations are becoming more feasible, even in heavy populated areas.
Gibson Electric provides various types of solar work as solar power continues to offer alternate energy solutions.
Gibson has installed electric car charging stations in projects all around the Chicagoland area.
Gibson Electric teams work hand-in-hand with equipment providers to handle everything from material procurement and distribution to final trim installation and commissioning.
The Gibson Electric staff can work with property owners to help ensure all the associated buildout is also provided—to whatever level of detail is needed for a given project, as no two sites are alike.
Gibson Electric will also look beyond the plans to verify the site-specific needs of each installation.
The staff at Gibson Electric can review clients’ existing power and lighting installations and assist in recommending retrofit solutions that provide energy savings. Evaluations of lighting, lighting control, building automation, and mechanical control systems are just some of the possible areas Gibson Electric can address to help clients achieve their energy savings goals.
In addition to installations, Gibson Electric can also assist in the documentation needed to receive utility rebates when applicable.

A few weeks ago, I wrote about my mid-winter creativity with Spoonflower, the online custom fabric printing service.
Early in the process, I had ordered their "swatchbook" fabric sample pack, which is a booklet containing a piece each of the fabrics that they print on. It's really inexpensive (just a dollar for shipping) but it took forever to get to me. It was ordered on January 6, my Spoonflower account indicated that it was shipped a day later and I finally received it on the 26th... three weeks. I eventually placed the order for my own designs to be printed on combed cotton without waiting for this sample pack to arrive.
If you're interested in knowing more about the cost of these fabrics and paper products, take a look at Spoonflower's help page here; it contains a further link to detailed information about the products themselves. By the way, the fabrics and paper products have a high quality feel to them... and the idea of papering my wall with something that I've designed is more than intriguing!
I put in my order of a sampler of my own fabrics on the evening of January 15. It eventually took a week to print and get ready for shipment; i.e., it shipped on January 22.
The confirmation stated that "We've shipped your order via a service that will deliver your package using the national postal service of your country, which typically takes between two and three weeks from the day it leaves our office here in Durham, North Carolina. A few destinations may take longer than the average, but if you have not received your fabric in four weeks, please contact us at [email protected] so that we can investigate the delay."
I was given a tracking number, but it was only good enough to tell me that the package was "in transit to carrier's US operations facility" early in the morning of January 23, nothing further. I never did get a Canada Post tracking number; the envelope just showed up in my mailbox on February 9. So all in all, while the shipping costs are reasonable ($2.00 in my case), your fabric may take a while to get to you.
That said, I was pleasantly surprised by what I received. Overall, the most helpful information I got from this sampler is that I probably made most of my designs too big. But that's an easy fix.
I'm glad I decided to try some designs featuring black, because while it's not the blackest black I've ever seen, it's also not the dark "whatever" that I was fearing it might be.
When I look at the actual piece of fabric — without my source file on top — I see black, which is all that matters.
And there's no end to the creativity made possible by Spoonflower. For instance, they run weekly fabric design contests. A theme is usually involved, but this past week they ran one with a palette challenge: come up with something in coral, mint, black and white. Since that was much more up my alley, I quickly made up this chevron pattern and entered it.
I didn't place on the winners list — and didn't expect to — but on the day that the contest went live for voting, I was thrilled to discover that my entry was "favorited" by a couple of fellow designers. Cool.
I've added a link to my Spoonflower shop on my blog menu above. Take a look under "Designs Not For Sale" to see what I've been up to lately — I'm getting another set of swatches ready for proofing — and tell me what you think!
I have seen others use Spoonflower too. I was always curious though how they and you designed your fabrics? Do you have some sort of graphic computer program or quilt program? Can you design fabric the old way with paper and pen, and markers or crayons? It's all so interesting. I don't have a dire need to design fabric as there is so much out there to choose from and I can always create my own fabric with fabric and paint, stencils, pens, stamps etc.But I am sure it must be a thrill to see your design come to like on fabric and then to make something that is all your own, including the fabric design! Meanwhile, I need to use up the tons of fabrics I have purchased over the decades.
Oh, you have anticipated a future blog post... I have plans to show how I designed a couple of my fabrics. And yes, while you can START with old fashioned pen/pencil and paper, it ultimately has to go onto the computer to finish, even though the actual tools you can use need not be as elaborate as you might think. It's a welcome extension of the creative process for me, but I've always admired those who - like you - can do "customizations" the old fashioned way with stencils and stamps and such... those are truly unique!
I really like your city scape fabric Rochelle. I've known of Spoonflower for a long time and they are actually located pretty close to me as I recall someone saying (they are in NC, USA right?). I keep saying I am going to go there and design am antic or two (I do a lot of sewing for animal rescue and Olde English Sheep Dog fabric is VERY hard to find!), as well as Boxer fabric. I Really need to get off my duff and just head on over there and try it out.
For some reason, your comments keep ending up in my spam folder...! Anyway, what you propose is interesting. I wonder what would happen if you were just to show up at their "doorstep" saying, "I want to create some fabric!" | 2019-04-20T03:00:32 | https://esheepdesigns.blogspot.com/2015/03/my-spoonflower-swatch-sampler.html |
Secret Women’s Business … Well, maybe not so secret now, as we sat in on the whole thing. But what a fun conference! Prior planning is always the key to a successful event. At High Impact Lighting, we take this seriously and invest money every year into our Pre Vis systems. Using WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get), we were able to give our client a 3D preview of what the stage would look like, and make the tweaks they needed to create a winning idea. This design looked amazing in preview and just as good when it was all done!
Diamonds were the key feature at this conference, so we created an LED diamond, 2 stories high. We added an angled LED screen below and an LED screen frame around the whole stage. Then we filled the gaps with lighting and create a super-awesome stage. The angles worked, the content was fantastic and we made sure the operation was cue-perfect. | 2019-04-20T04:23:53 | https://www.highimpactlighting.com/news/swb |

Marlee Matlin won the 1987 Academy Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of the beautiful but embittered deaf girl in Children of a Lesser God. Matlin lost her hearing when she was only 18 months old, but she grew up acting on the stage, where she was discovered by the film’s producers when she was still 19 years old. Children of a Lesser God was her first movie role.
Twenty-five years ago, the 59th annual Academy Awards took place on March 30, 1987, and I had an A-ticket to the show. I was 21 years and 218 days old when I received the Academy Award for Best Actress. I had just stepped into an imaginary world that I’d seen at a distance for years.
In addition to my nomination for Best Actress, I was also asked to be a presenter. I asked if I could present Best Achievement in Sound. Though some at the time thought it was in poor taste and didn’t see the humor (producer Samuel Goldwyn, Jr. thought it was a funny idea), I thought it was great. Hey, this year if the The Artist could rightfully garner Oscar attention for telling a wonderful story with actors barely uttering a single word, why couldn’t it work back then in vice versa fashion for me? That’s my sense of humor, and I’ve never wanted to be treated with kid gloves.
Theoni V. Aldredge had designed my dress for the Oscars. Back then, there were no dress giveaways on the red carpet. As far as I recall, you just bought a dress off the rack. Though I was just a 21-year-old kid with a modest pocket-book, thankfully, Paramount and my publicists hooked me up with Ms. Aldredge who had won multiple Tonys for her costume work on Broadway and an Oscar for her work in The Great Gatsby. The lavender dress she designed had a blend of elegance and romance that I loved. With that beautiful dress, I decided to wear my hair up. Unfortunately, at the last moment, a combination of events left me walking out on the red carpet with baby’s breath in my hair (my hairdresser’s idea) and oversized black horned-rimmed glasses (my boyfriend’s idea who said sarcastically when I wanted to take them off, “You’re not a model”). If I had it all to take back, I would’ve ditched the baby’s breath and glasses. What can I say; it was my youth and it was the ’80s.
A confession: When you’re up for an award at the Oscars, try as you might, it’s hard to concentrate on the show. Finally it was time, and William Hurt was behind the podium, reading the name of the nominees: Jane Fonda, Sissy Spacek, Sigourney Weaver, Kathleen Turner and me. And then William said my name and used my “name sign,” an “M” brushing against the cheek like a smile. My stomach dropped, and I thought it was a joke. Then I realized, it couldn’t be a joke because he had made the effort to sign my name.
The moments after that are still a blur, but I recall Jane Fonda smiling and saying “Isn’t that wonderful,” and I’ve told her many times in the years since that I will never forget that. In any case, after the applause died down, I realized that I had to say something. Emotions were welling up inside me as I looked out at what felt like the entire entertainment industry. Just two years before, I was in a small stage production of Children of a Lesser God, and just nine years earlier, my mentor Henry Winkler told me to follow my heart and never let barriers stop me from achieving my dreams when I asked him if I could be an actor in Hollywood just like him. Now here I was on stage with an Oscar in my hand. I wanted to savor this moment. Dreams do come true, I thought.
My speech was simple. I thanked my family, Randa Haines, the director, the producers, the cast and crew of Children of a Lesser God, and the Academy and its members. And though I forgot to thank Jack Jason, my interpreter who has now been by my side for almost 27 years as my producing partner, I’ve done my best to make it up to him and thank him every chance I get. Besides, I’ve told him, I’ll make sure to do it the next time I’m up accepting another Oscar.
In the chaos backstage, I felt a tap on my shoulder and whirled around. It was Elizabeth Taylor, and I had to keep my jaw from dropping. And though later that evening and the next morning, when a few critics proclaimed my victory the result of a pity vote and undeserved (“she’s essentially a deaf person playing a deaf role”), I moved on with the encouragement of people like Henry Winkler to look beyond people’s preconceived notions about me. I just wanted to work.
Today, it’s been 25 years since I received the Academy Award and I’m still here. I’ve done films and I’ve done TV. And I am still the youngest woman to receive an Oscar in the category of Actress in a Leading Role. I also am the only Deaf person to have received an acting Oscar. I’m happy with the first achievement, but the second one should change. There are so many people, deaf or otherwise abled, who are so talented but overlooked or not given a chance to even get their foot in the door.
Looking back now, thinking about that moment in the lights, with my heart pounding, Oscar in my hand, all I can say is I am grateful and humbled — still to this day. Next to marrying my husband and the birth of my children, it is one of the best days ever. Twenty-five years later, it still feels just like yesterday.
And by the way, people have asked what I did the day after I won the Oscar. Why I went to Disneyland of course! I’d highly recommend it to any Oscar winner post-ceremony; it plants your feet right back down on the ground.

The sort of bathroom mirrors might not be the most significant decision you are going to make when you choose to upgrade your bathroom but they may help you every day to look your very best. When you’re a general rule, most people tend to want to match the bathroom mirror with other bathroom fixtures, to make an effective coordinated look. The issue of warning here’s to be quite particular regarding the height of the mirror and its most appropriate place. They are for sale in designs that are unique and styles, on top of the variation in styles, finishes, and sizes. Is it spacious or simply right? Make sure you do not buy a big mirror if you’ve a moderate or small bathrooms. | 2019-04-20T06:17:28 | http://itfhk.org/quirky-bathroom-mirrors/ |
Oftentimes when LASIK isn’t a good option for someone, PRK is a suitable alternative. Developed in the mid-1980s, PRK carries many of the benefits, risks and price ranges as other laser eye surgeries.
Step 1: Removal of outer corneal layer (called the “epithelial layers”). This will grow back.
Step 2: Laser reshaping of cornea’s middle layer (called the “stroma”). This corrects vision.
Removal of the cornea’s outer layers can happen three ways for PRK. Which way your surgeon uses will depend on his preference. The goal of any of these three ways is to expose the stroma, a middle layer of your cornea, which the laser needs to reach to correct vision.
He can soak the outer layers with a weak alcohol solution to softens tissue, thus enabling the surgeon to remove it.
He can remove the outer layers mechanically with a variety of surgical instruments, such as a sponge or a brush.
Finally, he can remove the outer layers by a laser, the same one that corrects vision.
Once the epithelial layers are removed, the surgeon can then use a laser, called an “excimer” laser, to reshape your cornea. This laser has traditionally been able to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. However recent technologic advancements have enabled surgeons to further customize the vision correction through WaveFront mapping, a technology found in the Hubble telescope! Custom WaveFront PRK can cost a few hundred dollars more than traditional ones, but most doctors favor customization for the added safety and the chance it will improve vision beyond what even glasses and contacts could.
How does PRK compare with LASIK? Recall that in PRK the outer layers get removed and grow back later. In LASIK, your surgeon won’t remove the outer layers. However, instead he will create a flap in the cornea stroma. Lifting this flap provides the same service as the first step of PRK: The surgeon can now reach the stroma to perform laser vision correction.
PRK offers some benefits other eye surgeries, including LASIK, do not. A big benefit is the elimination of flap complications, since there’s no flap created. No flap equals no flap complications, in other words. PRK also leaves the eye in a stronger and more stable condition than other eye surgeries, such as RK or AK.
Finally, this is an attractive laser eye surgery for some people who aren’t good LASIK candidates. This might include people with thin or irregular corneas or who prefer not to have a flap created.
What are drawbacks of PRK?
PRK can have a slower visual recovery than LASIK. PRK might require weeks for full recovery to functional vision, for instance, whereas LASIK takes days to functional vision. During the first several days of PRK recovery, patients tend to feel varying levels of discomfort (e.g., burning and watery eyes), too, and they can have fluctuating vision as epithelial tissue regrows.
What results can I expect from PRK?
For more information on whether or not you’re a candidate for laser eye surgery and to learn more about risks, schedule a laser vision correction consultation. | 2019-04-18T10:39:50 | https://www.lasik.com/articles/prk-what-is-it/ |

For 70 minutes, Goddy looked equal to the task but the last 20 minutes left it yet another disappointing day for Godmanchester as Hadleigh scored three times leaving manager Karly Hurst in philosophical mood.
"Once again our strength in depth was exposed," he said. "With four players missing including our two strikers we cannot complain because we said at half-time that a draw was our best expectation.
"However, the final score line flattered Hadleigh although they did take their goal opportunities well."
The first half saw Godmanchester defending well against a side averaging more than two goals per game and although the visitors created few chances they looked comfortable.
However with 20 minutes left they lost concentration and were punished when goalkeeper Gavin Armitage failed to collect a cross and Chris Dennett netted.
It took less than three minutes for the second goal to find the net as Craig Payne found space to slide home.
This seemed to waken the visitors who had a brief spell when they looked the far better team, but the last word went to the home side when Lee Smith was given ample time to pick his spot.

Gaillardia, or Indian blanket flower, is an ornamental flowering plant valued for its ability to attract butterflies to the garden. Although the plant is an annual, it sometimes behaves like a short-lived perennial by reseeding and coming back a second year. Native to North America, gaillardia is hardy in USDA zones 5 through 10 and thrives in most regions of the United States with only minimal care. Flowering occurs during summer and fall, and blooms appear in shades of red, orange, purple and yellow, depending on variety. The plant tolerates heat and frost, making it ideal for northern or southern gardens.
Plant gaillardia during the spring in a location that receives at least six to eight hours of full sunlight each day and contains well-drained soil, necessary to prevent root rot in these plants. Space gaillardia flowers 15 to 18 inches apart. You can also sow gaillardia seeds directly on top of prepared soil, leaving them uncovered, after the last frost.
Water plants once every 10 to 14 days, allowing the soil to dry out between applications. Do not water during winter, when the plant is not growing as actively. Increase watering frequency to once every week during periods of extreme heat or drought.
Feed Indian blanket flower once every other month using a balanced 10-10-10 NPK fertilizer to provide proper nutrition for flowering and root formation. Water immediately after applying fertilizer to release the nutrients into the soil and prevent root burn.
Remove faded gaillardia flowers whenever possible to prolong the flowering season and encourage the growth of new blossoms. Pinch off the flowers as close to the stem as possible to minimize damage and increase the plant's visual appeal.
Gaillardia does not require fertile soil, though it may increase growth rate.
Flower cuttings taken from gaillardia are frequently used in bouquets and arrangements. They will last for about a week in a vase of water. | 2019-04-25T22:42:59 | https://www.gardenguides.com/102859-care-gaillardia-indian-blanket-flower.html |

Early pregnancy is one of 6 barriers commonly keeping girls from school. In Nicaragua, where the rates of teen pregnancy are the highest in Latin America, the issue is spiralling out of control.
According to the United Nations, 28% of young women in Nicaragua are giving birth to their first child before the age of 18. Teen pregnancy has detrimental consequences on the development of these young women.
Why is this happening? Sexual violence is a major factor contributing to the high rates of pregnancy across the country. In fact, in 2013 alone over 6,000 cases of sexual violence were reported to the police – 88% of the reports came from girls.
Nicaraguan children learning what to do if they see or experience violence in their community.
In collaboration with local authorities and community members, Plan International is working across the country to reduce violence and teenage pregnancy through a project that engages girls and boys to promote gender equality in their communities.
As part of the project, youth are encouraged to become Agents of Change. Plan International is training these Agents of Change through workshops that teach the importance of gender equality, girls’ rights and sexual health. Armed with this knowledge, youth can feel comfortable speaking to one another and their parents about ‘taboo’ subjects that affect their lives.
Plan International has also enlisted the help of the Police Commissioner at the Women’s National Police Station in Puerto Cabezas, Carmen Poveda. Carmen works with victims of sexual violence, because an important part of her job is to protect these young girls and help them escape the cycle of violence.
Police Commissioner, Carmen, is going door-to-door to put an end to sexual violence.
Carmen and her crew work closely with Plan International, community leaders and government officials to promote girls’ rights and ensure the rights of victims of sexual violence are met. And they’re seeing results. Victims are increasingly coming into the station to receive help, and young people are reporting violence when it occurs.
When attitudes begin to change, the entire community benefits. Today, Agents of Change and people like Carmen are making lasting change to improve the lives of girls in Nicaragua.
You can help make change, too!

When I graduated with my master’s degree from University of Georgia (Go Dawgs! Lol), a former classmate sent me a beautiful Class of 2013 glass frame. It was gorgeous! It even had a spot within the frame to embed and preserve your graduation tassel. I loved it. The only thing that was wrong with it was that by the time it was delivered to my mother’s doorstep in Fairfield, Alabama it was in about 10-12 pieces.
And if you’re reading this Brittney, I am so sorry I never told you! I just didn’t have the guts to tell you back then that the graduation present that you were so thoughtful to purchase and send to me as a gift (although you had selected and shipped with care), had not been HANDLED WITH CARE by the postal workers.
As I think back to that beautiful picture frame, I think of the many pieces of it I saw as I unwrapped all the bubble paper, the foam, the tape, and paper with the words “FRAGILE” and “HANDLE WITH CARE” written in big red, bold letters across the packaging.
Lesson Learned: Not everyone knows how to handle things carefully.
2 Corinthians speaks of our earthly bodies being like jars of clay—fragile. Although this text specifically refers to our outward bodies, the same holds true to our inward body. No matter how strong we claim to be, we as humans are fragile. Our feelings get hurt; we get tired; we get frustrated; we get weak. Many people do things to hurt us in relationships (familial, romantic, and friendships). The main reason this happens is that we fail to acknowledge and respect each other’s fragility.
There’s good news though— there is someone who always knows how to HANDLE us. Someone who recognizes how fragile we are and can be but also knows how to care for us in the gentlest way. Our creator. Oh, how gentle and tender He is with us!
Who better to know how to handle something than the person who created it?
Ephesians 2:10 says that “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them”. God knows how to handle us. Even when people fail us. Even when the US Postal Service fails us (*insert sigh), God will not fail us. He will give us the protection, the security, and the comfort that we need.
There’s that word again! GENTLENESS……God wants us to have it and exhibit it–to ourselves and also to others.
So, the next time someone hurts you, be patient and understanding. Even though Philippians 4:5 commands us as follows, “Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near”, we don’t always follow these instructions. The people who hurt us are imperfect just like we are imperfect. They deserve forgiveness just as much as we desire forgiveness from God. They may not necessarily know how to HANDLE US WITH CARE. However, there is someone who does— our gentle and tender Father in Heaven.

Next postHear No Evil, Speak No Evil: What Does the Bible Say About Gossip?
Beautiful reminder! I have Philippians 4:5 set to my phone lock screen…I love having that constant reminder!
Yes, that is a great Bible verse to keep nearby, Lindsey. Thanks for reading and commenting! God bless!
Man! At first I was like yes, thank you Jesus for handling me with care even when others aren’t gentle with me. THEN you stepped all on my toes talking about being gentle with the people who are not the same with me. *Ouch!
“Gentleness” is my word for the year. I still need a lot of growing in gentleness, but thank God He is gentle with me! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for reading mom! Yes, you and I both were upset with the way the Postal Service did not “handle with care” the package. Made for a great lesson learned though lol. Love you more!
This was beautiful and an on time reminder.
make a dedicated effort to implement gentleness. Remembering God’s gentleness, love, an kindness towards is exrememely helpful at times when we really want to do unto others as they are doing unto us :D. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for reading and commenting. Great, I will definitely have to read your posts on the subject. Gentleness is definitely something I am working harder at each day.
I think for most of us gentleness is something that doesn’t always come easy, especally when certain situations arise. It’s not always easy to cultivate certain aspects of the Christian character (sometimes it takes sacrifice) but it is worth it :). Thanks in advance for checking out some of my posts. God bless you!
Anytime! It’s great to connect with you. God bless you as well!
I love this! I’ve been learning to be gentle over the years. I used to have no filter and sound pretty harsh when I spoke to people. God is indeed gentle with us and He is working on me to be gentle with others. P.S. I should go see if my friend got her items in one piece from the postal service lol.
Thanks for this post. What an important part for the body of Christ. Sometimes, in the past, I’ve let my zeal for His word negate the need for gentleness and love. This is a timely reminder! God bless you.
Great point Andrew! Yes, we can be very enthusiastic about reaching others sometimes that we forget to have the gentleness required for them to receive the actual message. God bless you and thank you for reading and commenting!
Yes!!! Thank you so much for reading and commenting. Exactly. Sometimes it’s hard but we can do hard things. God gives us the power to. Love you too!
This is so true! I love the emphasis on being gentle. I haven’t really seen that before. It is difficult when emotions run high and feelings are hurt but you’re right, we need to show grace and forgiveness like we would want to be shown ourselves. | 2019-04-22T18:27:44 | https://liftedwoman.blog/2018/06/27/handle-with-care-practicing-gentleness-as-christians/ |

Onehunga, the gateway to South Auckland, is fast becoming an Auckland suburb to watch.
With an interesting past—it thrived as a timber and passenger port during the 19th century—the area boosts a fair few historic buildings and delightful villas.
Canny urban hipsters are cottoning on to this and swooping in on the prime real estate—it is only 8km from the city centre after all—and a new, hip vibe is permeating the area.
Onehunga doesn’t overwhelm with quantity (yet), but it proudly boasts a handful of quality local cafes and shopping options, making a trip southside well worth putting on the agenda.
Morning, Noon and Night (better known as Onehunga Café), serves delish fare—yup, you guessed it—morning, noon and night! For breakfast we can’t go past their famous crispy chicken waffles drizzled in chilli maple syrup and at lunch we’re all about their fish and chips. The dinner menu features a selection of burgers (anyone for a pulled brisket burg?), po’ boys and shared plates.
Psst! We’ll let you in on a secret: Onehunga serves some of the best pizza in Auckland town. Pizza Café Amore is Onehunga’s best-kept secret… until now. The restaurant’s thin-crusted pizza is piping hot and oh-so cheesy. You’ll also find all your fave Italian pasta dishes here—hellooo endless options of lasagne, carbonara, fettuccine and bolognese.
If you like grand designs and grand food, check out The Library Café. Built waaay back in 1912, the stunning building was once the local library. The spot is now famed for its all-day breakfast menu, pizzas and burgers, with plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free options. You’ll be pleased to know bookshelves still line the walls of the historic building, making it the perfect pozzy to curl up with a book while you sip on multiple bowls of hot chocolate.
Brick By Brick is ya typical, friendly neighbourhood café. While it’s nothing fancy, they do a decent eggs benny and a hearty big breakfast dish. The café’s owner, Soichiro Hara, has Japanese heritage and this can be seen in the menu with fare such as shogayaki ginger pork, chicken katsu and edamame—there’s even sake on the drinks menu!
Opening in 1984, Hard To Find bookstore was first located in an Onehunga basement—hence the name. Now situated on Onehunga Mall, the second-hand bookstore is much easier to find. However, there’s a high chance you’ll get lost once inside. The quirky two-storey shop is much like a maze, brimming with books of every genre imaginable. Whether you’re into Rowling, Blyton or Archer, you’re bound to find something that tickles your pickle.
Once upon a time Dressmart was the sole reason people ventured to Onehunga. Nowadays, there’s lots of things worth visiting for (as you’re quickly realising). However, the much-loved shopping outlet continues to go strong. A trip to Dressmart will see you overhauling your wardrobe without breaking the budget. Two of our fave Kiwi brands, Huffer and Federation, both have stores here. Ch-ch-check ‘em out.
On Monday nights, when the sun sets on Onehunga, Dressmart is home to the bustling Auckland Night Markets. Come with your piggy bank and an empty stomach and brace yourself for a multicultural feast. You find kebabs, crepes and more dumplings than you can poke a stick at. There’s also lots of nick-nacks for sale (sunnies, jewellery and the like), but we’re mostly there for the food #typical.
The Onehunga Bay Reserve brings good times to families, runners and dogs alike. The council have been hard at work over these ways—a $30 million development was completed at the end of 2015. The project created 6.8 hectares of parkland between State Highway 20 and the Manukau Harbour. The area has it all: beaches, a boat ramp, playground, pedestrian bridges, skate ramp and a lagoon that is home to a family of stingrays (we kid you not).
