Industry 4.0, a new industry initiative in Germany, is impacting strongly both on industry and on society. Many newspapers and technical magazines are publishing the state of the art articles on topics such as smart manufacturing based on IoT (Internet of Things), CPPS (Cyber Physical Production System), and cloud-based systems. Other parts of the world have started initiatives such as the IIC (Industrial Internet Consortium) in the US and the IVI (Industrial Value Chain Initiative) in Japan. Smart manufacturing is the key concept underlying these new initiatives. This special issue addresses the most advanced research on smart manufacturing. Subjects cover cyber-physical product-service systems, machinery production lines, manufacturing system simulation, lot-size energy-consumption dependence per production throughput unit, additive manufacturing processes, sensor network technology, production management technology, supply chain management technology, and smart manufacturing reviews. We thank the authors for their careful work and the reviewers for their incisive efforts without which this special issue would not have been possible. We hope that this special issue will trigger further research on smart manufacturing and its advances.

Over my holiday I had the extreme luxury of reading some of the stoic literature I had. Particularly the lecture series of Gaius Musonius Rufus one of the Roman stoics. From his 21 discourses, discourse 18 labelled “On Food” is what caught my attention. Now I don’t agree with many of Musonius practical stoic ideas, such as not eating meat, but there is one piece of advice he gives, that has stuck with me.
In Discourse 18, Musonius advises that we listen to Socrates and not live to eat, but rather eat to live. What he means here, is that food is just that, it’s food. That is, rather than constantly be thinking about what you are eating, we should treat eating as what it is, something we must do to survive.
I am sure most of us, if not all, have come across the judgemental individuals who will pipe up with something along the lines of “why deprive yourself of food” or “you only live once” or whatever other justification they use every time we politely refuse a piece of cake or a bowl of spaghetti. To these people I often echo Musonius, and mention that not eating a caramel slice is not deprivation to me. I eat so I can enjoy life, I don’t enjoy life by eating.
A lot of us paleo dieters fall into an orthorexic lifestyle. We obsess about our food. This is not a healthy mindset by any means, and is just as bad as eating what we consider to be unhealthy.
A lot of us will do well taking this stoic advice and just eating what we know is healthy, in amounts that allow us to live better. No more and no less.
Yep, that was me in 2010 🙂 Amazing what a little weight gain will do to your mindset. But I don’t think anyone can understand any eating disorder until they experience it, so it’s all too easy to brush off the appearance of obsession as self indulgence rather than understanding why people end up there.

Anxiety is a word we use to describe feelings of unease, worry and fear. It incorporates both the emotions and the physical sensations we might experience when we are worried or nervous about something. Although we usually find it unpleasant, anxiety is related to the ‘fight or flight’ response – our normal biological reaction to feeling threatened.
In situations like these it’s understandable to have worries about how you will perform, or what the outcome will be. For a short time you might even find it hard to sleep, eat or concentrate. Then usually, after a short while or when the situation has passed, the feelings of worry stop.
Then when you feel the danger has passed, your body releases other hormones to help your muscles relax, which may cause you to shake.
This is commonly called the ‘fight or flight’ response – it’s something that happens automatically in our bodies, and we have no control over it. In modern society we don’t usually face situations where we need to physically fight or flee from danger, but our biological response to feeling threatened is still the same.
Because anxiety is a normal human experience, it’s sometimes hard to know when it’s becoming a problem for you – but if your feelings of anxiety are very strong, or last for a long time, it can be overwhelming.
You might find that you’re worrying all the time, perhaps about things that are a regular part of everyday life, or about things that aren’t likely to happen – or even worrying about worrying.
You might regularly experience unpleasant physical and psychological effects of anxiety, and maybe panic attacks.
Depending on the kind of problems you experience, you might be given a diagnosis of a specific anxiety disorder.

Homeygad I haven't blogged for over a month! Momma was away again and you know I can't actually use the keyboard, so I was just pretty much hanging out with Qish all the time. She even brought the iPad with her, so I didn't have access to the interwebz and my favorite fishing game! Anyway, here are bits of stuff on what happened while we were not blogging.
Momma started a cat feeding program for the homeless kitties under Magallanes Interchange flyover. Right now she feeds 6 cats at night before going home. Her next project is to have them spayed so they stay a small family.

Why is Bone Broth so good? Bone broth has been made for hundreds of years by our grandparents and their grandparents. It's rich in minerals and high in protein containing amino acids which can assist with the reduction of inflammation, help to strengthen bones, joints and muscle tissue, and healing compounds such as collagen to help heal the lining of the gut, support digestive health, boost metabolism and make broth from scratch. Our Beef Bone Broth powder is ready in seconds, as tasty and nutritious as homemade and easy to take on the go!
How is it made? Beef bones are added to filtered water and apple cider vinegar – to assist in the extraction of the minerals and boiled down to form a broth. Himalayan salt is added for the final stage of the broth, for flavour and nutrition. The broth is then strained for impurities and as it cools the fat is skimmed off the top. The broth goes through a gentle refractatant drying process taking care to preserve the rich nutritional profile.

The circadian system has a regulatory role in almost all aspects of a plant's life. In Arabidopsis thaliana, almost 36% of the genome has been shown to be circadianly regulated and many genes that are circadianly regulated have been shown to be light responsive or involved in light responses. Rhythmic histone acetylation has been demonstrated in the promoter of TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION1 (TOC1). Here, I used semi-quantitative Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (semi-quantitative RT -PCR) to investigate which enzymes are involved in the rhythmic expression of TOC1. I also determined whether loss-of-function histone acetylation and methylation mutants could affect the overall functioning of the circadian oscillator by measuring their circadian leaf movement and delayed fluorescence (DF) rhythms. GCN5/ HAG1 mutant plants (gcn5) exhibited erratic TOC1 expression in both constant dark (DD) and constant light (LL) conditions. Although TOC1 expression appeared to be rhythmic in both DD and LL conditions, the waveform of the rhythm was altered in TATA-binding protein associated factor 1 (taf1) mutants. This suggested that TAF1 and GCN5 might play different roles in the rhythmic histone acetylation affecting TOC1 expression. DF data and leaf movement data indicated that both TAF1 and GCN5 might play a role in the overall functioning of the A. thaliana circadian clock. Arrhythmic TOC1 expression and DF was observed in histone deacetylase 1 (hd1) mutants, suggesting that HD1 is not only involved in the rhythmic histone deacetylation affecting TOC1 expression but in the overall functioning of the circadian clock. Semi-quantitative RTPCR, DF and leaf movement studies demonstrated that CURLY LEAF (CLF), a histone methylase is involved in both the histone methylation affecting TOC1 expression and in the overall functioning of the A. thaliana circadian clock.

Discussion in 'Deck Help and Strategy' started by KingGengar, Nov 5, 2007.
Why drive a TRUK when you can saunter in with a pachyderm?
You can also say this is "Riding the Dragon" but don't read too much into that.
STRATEGY: Set up the elephant as soon as possible for the disruptive 40+Rapid Spin. This causes chaos for Blissey, but also Electrode, Electivire, and Raichu, since Donphan is resistant to Lightning. This Resistance to Lightning also covers Gyarados' Weakness.
Once set up, you can use Donphan's 100hp, Phanpy's Rage, and Memory Berry to good effect. This goes well with Gyarados, which does the same thing, only without the Berry. You run 3 Windstorm to help Gyarados, but Memory Berry can work for the Dragon also.
Switch and Warp Point are both in line with Donphan's disorientation, and Gyarados' huge retreat cost. The single SSU can be used to scoop up that hurting Gyarados, but you might just as easily add another Night Maintenance.
The different Energies won't matter if using only Rage attacks, or Donphan mostly, but it'll be good to have Water in case you try to build Gyarados, or use Dragon Rage. Scramble will probably be necessary since damage is a big part of the plan. In fact, it may be preferable to have 4 Scramble. I'm not sure yet.
The big risk is the Magikarp, but there are 9 ways to get a 2nd Pokemon on T2, not including 7 more Draw/Rotate.
Donphan I understand ... Gyarados going with him, not so much. Seriously what does Gyarados add to this besides complecating your energy, making you power dependant, and giving you terrible starts?
Edit: Sorry for the negative sounding tone. Came out a lot worse than intended. What do you do if damage doesn't get spread for rage?
There isn't much synergy between the cards, and what makes Donphan almost playable is that it uses Rapid Spin and avoids damage. The idea of trying to use Memory Berry and Flail doesn't make much sense with its attack. I can't see you having a T2 Donphan as consistently as you should as opposed to if you included some Quick Ball in the list.
i like plaing it with gyarados becuase after rapid spin you bring up gyarados to take the hit then use flail.
First, you gotta understand how much I love Gyarados as a Pokemon, and want to play the MT version "just because." That said, it's such a fragile situation, with Magikarp being, self-admittedly, the weakest Pokemon; with Gyarados dependant on Poke-Powers; with its far-fetched attacks.
Second, since Gyarados is weak to Lightning, Donphan is one of the few choices which makes sense for Gyarados as a partner, being resistant to Lightning, and being Fighting type, which is Lightning's main problem. Master of Puppets hits the nail on the head - Rapid Spin, Gyarados comes up, gets damaged, hits for big damage.
Right, so I see what you're saying, that you don't think Donphan will be able to use the Memory Berry consistently. I see where it would make sense to play Buffer instead to help the fragile Magikarp from being KO'd early.
What do they add to each other? Besides the similar Rage attacks, and the Weakness coverage, not a whole lot. Gyarados can use *any* energy for Magikarp's attack, however, so Fighting doesn't bother it too much.
I'll have to test it more and see what happens.
I don't have much to comment but I just can't bare to play with a 30 hp pokemon.
It really is too bad that the Carp doesn't have Fighting Resistance -10, since Gyrados has -20. That would at least force the use of a Plus Power or something for the first turn Riolu KO.
T2 Donphan is a good idea because? You hit for 40 and send both basics back to the bench. Unless you team it up with like something that can free retreat or attack for 1 energy, you won't be doing much next turn because Donphan is on the bench.
You run 3 Windstorm to help Gyarados, but Memory Berry can work for the Dragon also.
Never mind that... how about Leek Slap FTW!
KingGengar.. nice idea... look at this card for your target at Rapid spin.. you don't switch and if they have CC on an Active and not a Bench, the Body Kicks in after the CC is benched and before you switch.
But really, you would start with Magikarp 1 in every 8 games, which is pretty meh.
Yeah, the new cards are really cool. That Wormadam is interesting, and so are its mechanics.
I still don't get the idea behind the deck. If you Rapid Spin back to the bench T2, how do you do anything of any good damage on T3 with your only powered Pokemon on the bench?
It helps with what Prime is talking about... you can use the Burmy to get back the F nrg from Mentor/TVR evo up to Wormadam and then Target the Worm with the Spin! You dont switch but your opponent does so you can stack damage on their bench and stack nrg on the Worm then Memory Berry the Phan for Flail.... then bring out the Dma and drop a scramble and go to town while building another Phan! A lot of phun and irritating!! Just what I like!
I can't say I really LIKE the idea of this deck, but it definitely is an interesting take on Donphan. I don't like the idea of Gyarados simply because you're relying on your opponent to damage it for you to do any damage, and with a nasty retreat cost, the only real way to get it back to the bench is with a trainer card... only to bring it back up with another Rapid Spin. Is that a little counter-intuitive or is it just me?
Would that really work? I think someone might want to ask that in Ask the Masters.
BLACK MAMBA: Yeah, I suppose it is counter-intuitive. But I'm looking at it this way: if opponent snipes my Donphan, I can use the Memory Berry (if the damage is better than the attack), and if opponent hits Gyarados, I can dish out mega-damage for one energy.
It's possible you could pair Donphan with Sharpedo. Then, if opponent hits Donphan, piles up for Memory Berry, or if opponent hits Sharpedo, Rough Skin. Then, free retreat, do it again. Not super-powerful, but super-annoying.
MECHES: Neat idea about the Wormadan!
Maybe run fossils with the deck, so you can just discard them if they aren't KO'd? Eh, I don't know. | 2019-04-20T20:56:24Z | http://pokegym.net/community/index.php?threads/riding-the-elephant.62416/ |
So, you have decided to take a vacation to Universal Orlando Resort!! Congratulations! Now, where are you going to stay? The following is an overview of my personal opinion and experiences with the Universal onsite resorts.
Universal Orlando (USO) separates their resorts in the categories of Prime Value, Preferred, and Premier.
Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort was Universal’s first step into the Prime Value category. With 2200 guest rooms, this is the largest resort onsite. Offering standard guest rooms, family suites, and two-bedroom suites, this resort can accommodate up to eight guests per room. With the theming of a 1950’s/1960’s beach resort, there is an abundance of fun, colorful activities. The resort offers two pools (one with a waterslide and the other with a lazy river), fitness center, bowling alley, arcade, and a few play areas for children. Cabana Bay offers dining in a food court, poolside lounges, table service in the bowling alley, and a Starbucks. We have stayed in both a standard room and a family suite. I love the suite layout as the bathroom makes it so easy for multiple people to get ready for the day. The resort offers a fire pit in the evening for guests, and who doesn’t love a good s’more? You can purchase s’more kits in the food court. The shower is located in a separate area than the toilet for ease of access. The resort has a great layout with easy access to the main building from all rooms. The amenities are more accustomed to a four-star resort, so this resort offers great bang for your buck! Parking is outdoors and will cost $12 per night. If your room is in the newer towers, you can park in the small parking garage to access your room much easier for the same cost. I travel often with my husband and 14-year-old daughter, so I also feed off of their experiences. While we have enjoyed our stays at Cabana Bay, we find there to be a little too much ‘activity’ at this resort for our taste. We prefer a slower, more relaxed pace when we return to our resort at the end of the day from the theme parks.
USO will be opening another Prime Value resort named Universal’s Aventura Hotel in August 2018. Like Cabana Bay, there will not be Universal Express passes included with your stay here. The hotel will feature a rooftop bar that promises amazing views of both the Universal theme parks and the Orlando area. This hotel will also feature a food court, multiple pools, Starbucks, and fitness center. I look forward to checking this out next summer! Stay Tuned.
Loews Sapphire Falls Resort was the second Preferred level hotel built onsite. This resort opened last year, and I was able to stay one night. I really enjoyed the island décor and the tropical vacation feel of this resort. The décor is very Caribbean with cool blues and dark wood contrasts. The rum bar in the lobby is stunning to look at and also offers an extensive rum menu. Sapphire Falls offers a huge zero entry pool with a waterslide, hot tub, and a children’s play area. This pool is amazing! There is a “sandbar” that you can walk across the pool on, to make getting to the other side both fun and easy. Walking to the parks is much more manageable here than Cabana Bay, as the path takes you past Royal Pacific. The resort also offers a boat to Citywalk, which is an enjoyable ride. This resort offers two table service restaurants, one quick service location, and a poolside café. There is not a full Starbucks at this resort, but they serve a few Starbucks items at the quick service location. Parking is in a garage at $22.00 per night. There are several suites to choose from that will make your stay even more relaxing. Although it is a step up in the luxury scale and price, no Universal Express Pass is included with your stay here. This is a huge factor when deciding on a resort in my opinion. These passes totally change your entire vacation. Read on to find out how much they impact your day.
The first Preferred level resort at USO was Loews Royal Pacific Resort. This is one of my favorites based on décor, amenities, and overall beauty. The theming is South Seas and the feel is carried all the way through the resort. I absolutely love the lobby and the elephant fountain. This resort offers three full-service dining locations, as well as two quick service locations. They also offer a fitness center, children’s play area, and a lagoon style pool with a sandy beach! Just beautiful!! All rooms will have two queens or one king and offer the choice of adding a rollaway ($25.00 per night) to either bedding choice. This means you can sleep up to five in a standard room. Royal Pacific also offers suites of varying levels to enhance your stay. There is a Luau offered weekly as well that gets great reviews. This certainly adds to the South Pacific feel of the resort. Parking here is also $22.00 per night. The most important feature is the Universal Express Pass that is included with your stay for each person in the room. This changes your entire vacation. I cannot even begin to explain the joy of seeing a two-hour wait for a popular ride or attraction and walking right past all of the scowling faces to the front of the line. On my most recent visit, I was able to ride both Harry Potter attractions with a five-minute wait. Instant happiness. This pass not only gets you to the front of the line once, but as many times as you would like. You can ride the Hulk until you match him in color if you so desire. This pass is pure gold.
We have now reached Premier level status hotels!!!! The first is the Loews Hard Rock Hotel. This is the closest hotel to the parks. It is literally a five-minute walk to Universal Studios!! You can also opt for the boat, but walking is faster, plus it is a nice walk. Hard Rock offers two full-service dining locations and three quick service locations. Known for the not-so-subtle noise levels, Hard Rock offers you the chance to party like a Rock Star. You can even get a guitar delivered to your room! The pool has speakers underwater and you can sometimes catch live music performed there during the day. Volleyball and table tennis are also offered poolside, for those that have no intention of slowing down. Universal Express Pass is included with your stay here. Parking is $22.00 per night and valet is offered for $29.00. The rooms here are a true oasis from the hustle and bustle of the parks and offer the luxury a Rock Star would expect! These rooms all allow up to five guests with the use of a rollaway ($25.00 per night). This resort does have a reputation for being loud and busy, especially on the days they offer Velvet Sessions concerts in the lobby, but it’s a great option for those looking for a high-energy resort experience.
The pinnacle of the Universal Orlando onsite hotels and resorts is the Loews Portofino Bay Resort! This resort is the Premiere Level onsite hotel in all manners of the term. Themed after Portofino Italy, this resort has that breathtaking appeal that you want on vacation. The unassuming arrival area and lobby give way to the most spectacular piazza on the east coast. From the live opera music sang from a balcony to the amazing Mama Della’s restaurant, and all the way to the Gelateria (blueberry muffin flavor is the best), this hotel screams Italy! The rooms have Italian marble desks, huge bathrooms and amazing piazza views available. This hotel even offers Despicable Me kids suites which have the bomb beds! The Universal Express Pass is included here as well. It comes to great use when you can sleep in, have a wonderful breakfast by the water or at the Trattoria del Porto, and then take the boat to the parks. You have the option of walking as well. I can tell you when you ride the boat back to the resort, this is when you have that gasping moment of the beauty of the resort. This place is so unique in its design and atmosphere. The pool beckons as a refreshing oasis with a slide and fun kid’s area. If adult time is your cup of tea, they also offer two other quiet pools with the Villa pool being extremely elegant, and the Hillside pool being cozy. Oh, and yes there is a full-service Starbucks!! Parking again is $22.00 per night and valet is also offered. Portofino offers both surface and underground parking. In case you haven’t figured it out this is my favorite USO onsite hotel and I highly recommend it.
Express Passes - you will want them no matter the time of year, but especially during high crowd times. A lot of the time it is less expensive to upgrade the hotel choice instead of adding on the passes. Plus, with the hotel, you get the passes for the day of check-in until the park close of check-out!
Amenities - make sure the resort offers what your family considers important to them. You may need a Starbucks or more variety in dining than what some locations offer. All rooms will feature a small refrigerator, coffee maker, and free Wi-Fi. All Universal resorts and hotels offer at least two queen size beds.
Price - Have Dreams Unlimited price more than one resort, and you will be surprised at the special rates Universal offers. A lot of the time the Portofino Bay comes in less than the Hard Rock!
Location - staying onsite not only gets you closer to the parks but also Citywalk. You will want to be fully immersed in Universal Orlando for your entire stay.

She deserves an award just for surviving bad theatre; Mark Blankenship is rooting for her.
Every November and December, as I get sucked into the blackhole of watching cheesy holiday tv movies on Lifetime and the Hallmark Channel, I'm reminded of just how far Chlumsky has grown in these last few years on "Veep". She stars or costars in at least 4 of these cheeseball Xmas movies that they replay annually on a loop. The early 00s were not good years career-wise, but she's now one of my favorite parts about "Veep".
And on a shallow note, Anna Chlumsky looked damn hot on the 2014 Emmy red carpet!
I don't watch Veep, but she was so good on Hannibal as Miriam Lass. I knew exactly who she was (who could forget, "Put on his glasses!!!"), and was surprised at how composed and great she did in the role.
Anna has been absolutely incredible, as Amy Brookheimer. So, so funny, but also being able to convey depth and even some sympathy, despite her character's general heartlessness. It's not just the cutting dialogue, but the physical comedy, the facial expressions, the tiptoeing around Selina's sharp edges and coddling of her boss, the fact that she's always 'on', even when the scene is about someone else. She's really great.
I'd only seen her in a couple of small roles, as an adult, before I saw In The Loop, and thought she was very solid in that, not at all out of place with Armando Ianucci's style of humour. But on Veep, she's been the second MVP behind JLD, in my view.
I have no interest in awards, or the mixture of politicking and thoughtless 'I know that name best, that's the winner' voting, but I think she deserves a lot more recognition than she's received, for the work she's done.
@kat Your point about the Christmas movies is well taken. Another sign Chlumsky worked to grow from a naturally charismatic child actor into an adult performed with real chops. Like I said, I really respect that.
She is amazing and I have loved witnessing this career rebirth. The Emmy should have been hers, dammit!
As the Veep cast has grown, some of the original cast are getting less screen time. Anna Chlumsky seemed a little squeezed out this past season. No longer chief of staff or campaign manager (after the election), she was around monstly to put out fires for Selena.
I wonder if Selena goes back to the VP position if Amy will again be her Chief of Staff.
I'd like to see Anna's screentime increase next season. I love her interactions between Dan and Gary.
I've been complaining about the lack of screen time for Amy, Dan, Gary & Sue especially. All the core cast save Selena and Jonah were squeezed of screen time quite a bit this season. And my least favorite character got a big bump of focus - Catherine.
I was wondering which episode would Anna Chlumsky even use for her Emmy submission because she hasn't had much to do. Hopefully the finale will have something great of Amy but realistically based on how the season has gone I doubt it.
I think her problems is that she is too good. A lot of people probably think she is just playing an exaggerated version of herself. It also probably means Emmy voters are idiots.
She is definitely underrated, and doesn't get enough credit for her great work on this show.
Maybe Anna's "someday" winning an Emmy will be tonight! I would love to see her win, she would be so adorably emotional. I kind of doubt it will happen but the category doesn't seem to have a favorite so the odds are fairly equal for all nominees.
As a non-fan of Season 5 I am rooting for another show to win for Best Comedy. I don't even care which one. I am being petty and vindictive towards my once favorite comedy show. I won't forgive David H. Mandel for turning some of the best characters ever into one-note caricatures of themselves. But I am rooting for all the cast nominees to win. Except maybe Julia although she deserves to win it is nice to spread these prizes around a little. | 2019-04-25T14:55:49Z | https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13683-maybe-someday-anna-chlumsky-will-win-an-emmy/ |
Mary was released as the branch Seminary teacher a couple of weeks ago. She decided she wanted to show her appreciation for the student’s support over the last 17 months by crocheting warm watch caps for each of them. Altogether she made 13 caps – the young ladies get ones with flowers and the young men get ones with stripes. We will miss the couple of hours we got to spend with these special young people who are the future of the Church in South Africa. After seminary and cap selections it was time for photos and then a dozen games of Book of Mormon Bingo.

Opps – The Elders Have an Accident – but not their fault!
I called the elders to get them to help me with a project when elder Wild told me that they had just been in an accident. Mary got the location and knew where to go – she is my personal GPS, When we arrived we found that a taxi had backed into the front left side of their car. Of course the taxi driver said that they had run into him and none of the witnesses would make a statement to the police. Besides the hole in the fender, the only damage seems to be that the washer reservoir was broken. I told the elders to keep an eye on the heat gauge just in case the liquid that poured out included a leak in a hose to or from the radiator.
I took a couple of photos of some of the spectators. The little fellow in red was reluctant to have his photo taken but his big brother got him to pose. When I showed him his picture he got a big smile. The young lady seems too young to have a child but here it happens regularly.
Elder Wild wanted a souvenir of the accident so he posed with the police officer. She seemed surprised to say the least. I had the elders pose with their damaged car.

27 July – We go for a game drive with the Elders!
We were talking to elders Wild, who has been here for over 22 months, and Hentunen, who has been here over a year, and found out that neither of them had ever been to a game reserve. So we invited them to come with us to the small game park in our district. Mainly it has antelope, zebras, a few giraffes and three rhinos. No cats and no elephants but at least it provides a touch of a major reserve. We left Potch at about 6:30 and were in the park a little after 7:00. The usual springbok was there to greet us.
We saw a couple of small herds of zebras.
But the main attraction was a family of 6 giraffes that elder Hentunen spotted and we all took lots of pictures. Notice that elder Hentunen who is from Finland had on a coat while elder Wild who is from England just had on a short sleeve shirt. Later elder Wild got cold and put on his jacket.
The group included an old dark male that is almost invisible in the first couple of photos. There seemed to be 4 adults, a juvenile and a younger one. in the group.
I got some good shots of a pair of them that look like the front one is standing in front of a mirror.
Later we saw the same group silhouetted against the skyline heading across the plains to another group of trees. The big male was in front followed by a female and the juvenile. In the last photo you can see the littlest giraffe plodding along behind.
Mary had put together a nice lunch of sandwiches, chips and chocolate. I had stopped and bought some soft drinks. There is a large and very picnic area with comfortable tables and chairs, braai pits, toilets and lots of shade. But today it was cold and windy so although we ate in the sun, we still were rather chilled.
As we were driving along one edge of the park we came to a plains area that had three large herds of antelope. The largest were wildebeests and bonteboks – there was also a herd of impalas but I did not take a photo of them as they were even further across the plains. We decided they were all there because of the watering hole that was near by.
This Gemsbok was nice enough to stay standing in the middle of the road so that I could take a nice head on shot. Later we got a side photo of another one. Notice the size of the horns on this antelope. I would not want to get one of them mad at me while I was outside.
This is the only photo of a bird that I got. I tried to shot a couple more but they flew away before I could take their pictures. So this Fiscal Flycatcher is has to represent all the birds in the park.
We had not seen any eland – the largest of the antelope – on our other trips to the park but this time we saw a couple – one walking through the grass at a distance and the other one quite close and personal. Notice that his one has a broken horn on the right side. This is a common eland – there seems to be some uncommon versions around.

It was freezing cold this Sabbath morning due to low temperatures and a biting wind. I really did not expect many of the members who had to walk a good distance to come but 55 great saints braved the cold and wind to come to our meetings. This says a lot for the faith of the saints here in Ikageng and Potchefstroom.
Between meetings the courtyard was busy with people trying to get a little warmth from the sun. Sister Merriam in her sharp looking check coat and sister Kea who was watching over a young sister caught some sun. The wonderful primary presidency leads all their charges to the toilet while sisters Kruger and Ncapayi share some thoughts.
Brothers Omphile, Gomolemo and Tinashe seem to be talking about the little one.
Sisters Ratema and Lekebe pose for me while president and sister Kwaikwai try get a couple of moments alone.
Sister Kujane and the other sister Lekebe in the sun while we pose with brother and sister Tlotleng.
There is a small gathering of the priesthood, brothers Tlotleng, Johannes, Komatso and Rampai. It would not be a Sabbath with out a photo of sister Thulo.
The youngest Thulo gives me a smile while president Kwaikwai is caught trying to get some lunch at the social for brother Omphile Mokate’s farewell.
Speaking of brother Mokate here he is with sisters Williams and Thulo and then with Kea and a young lady I do not recognize. Then he is with us and finally sister Ratema.
The Kruger family gave Mary this beautiful flower arrangement for her birthday..

We have visitors…meet the Lombardis!
We had visitors today – only the second time that some one outside our zone has come to see us. We served in the same mission as Dennis and Taunia Lombardi but at different times. We got to know them through FaceBook and they were kind enough to help me replace my favorite Swaziland silver ring when the one I bought there in 2009 got damaged. They are now serving their second mission in South Africa. The first one was served in the Durban mission and they spent their 18 months blessing the lives of the members, missionaries and others in Swaziland. This time they are serving in the Area offices in Johannesburg as Church History Advisors. We dropped in to see them in their office a couple of weeks ago and they returned the favor today.
Sister Lombardi said that they missed working closely with the young missionaries and the people. She also mentioned she missed the dirt roads. So we invited them to take a quick tour of Promosa and Ikageng where we would be happy to get them on some dirt roads.
Our first stop was in Promosa where we visited our dear friend sister Mary Mothobi. She lives in a humble home but it is filled with love and the spirit.
We then directed them – elder Lombardi was driving – to the orphanage that we give a little support. Sister Lombardi was in heaven when she found a group of young men playing on the dirt road. They have a big bag of lollipops ready to hand out to the children. They were equally as pleased to meet some of the children who live at the orphanage. Unfortunately neither Lolo or George were home but Lolo’s daughter was there to answer all their questions.
It was a fun afternoon for us and I think that this brief trip to the real Africa that they saw every day in Swaziland kind of recharged their batteries. We invited them back any time – at least up until we leave for home.

Monday night is YSA Family Home Evening time at the branch. Sister Ratema conducted the meeting and sister Kwaikwai thought a lesson on Tithing and Keeping the Sabbath Day holy from a talk by elder Bruce R. McConkie given at BYU 40 years ago but just as relevant today as it was then. 10 Commandments After the lesson the group settled down to a couple of intense games of Book of Mormon “Go Fish” which is a favorite of the group. Sister Kwaikwai cleaned up in the first game having accumulated 7 sets with the next best being 4!
On Tuesday we picked up elders Hentunen and Wild and took them up to Parys to visit sister Bobbi Swanepoel and Louis. As we were driving into the town, elder Wild spotted a group of monkeys so we stopped and took some pictures. Elder Hentunen is from Finland and elder Wild is from England…they make a great companionship.
After our visit we walked down to the Vaal River that runs behind her flat. It was a beautiful day and the river was as smooth as glass. It is also very low for this time of the year. If you look really closely at the photo on the left you can pick out a man paddling a small kayak down stream. The other photo is from the same spot but looking up stream at a small rapids.
Usually I get a couple of photos of Louis but this is the only one I took this trip. He is leading sister Bobbi back to their flat. They make a great pair and we have been blessed to know them.
19 July 2015 – Another Beautiful Sabbath in Ikageng!
Sunday was clear and cold but over 50 members of the branch came to Church to enjoy the blessings of the sacrament and the fellowship of the saints. Due to load shedding the heaters stopped working about 30 minutes before the meeting started and the power did not come back on until 30 minutes after the block was over. I guess wanted us to be warmed by his spirit and it worked.
Above is president and sister Kwaikwai who had a few moments together for a photo. Three of the lovely young women in the branch posed for the next one – sisters Kruger, Lekebe and May. Below we have brother Menzi with sister Amos – I try to get Menzi with a different lady each week. The warmest place was out in the yard in the son so there were a number of gatherings including the one of the PH with sister Ntabising. We were glad to have Bongani Buti visiting the branch.
If you look through the blog you will see that I often have a photo of sister Thulo – she is joined in the other two by sister Khanye Lekebe.
Sisters Ratema and Kea show off their smiles and also their oh so tall high heels. Below Sister Ratema with brother Omphile. While his main girl, sister Kea gets even by posing with Bongani Buti. Bongani served as my counselor until he got a job up in Pretoria so he knows the branch members well. Then we got the two love birds together for a photo. In the last photo in this series we find sister Kwaikwai joining brothers Omphile and Bongani as well as sister Ratema.
The branch is blessed to have a very active Primary that is watched over by a great Primary presidency of sisters Georgina, Viona and Merriam. Mary plays the keyboard for sharing time and then does the same for Relief Society.

Since we hold our sacrament and other meetings in a room where there are school classes, each week a different group of members have an assignment to clean and wax the floor and then set up the room for the meeting. They also clean the bathrooms – not always a pleasant task at the best of times, and a couple of other rooms. The Tlotleng group have never missed a cleaning assignment!
The crew today included sister Renny Motha who shows below her excellent mopping skills while elders Hentunen and Wild start setting up the chairs. The bottom photo is of brothers David Rampai and Simon Tlotleng cleaning and setting up the Primary room for the children.
While the crew was cleaning, Institute class was being held in another room. I did not get a photo while the class was going on but I did get some of class, plus sister Renny who had turned in her mop, afterwards as they were preparing to play some wicked games of UNO. They take playing very seriously but you could not tell from all the smiles and laughter.

Studio portrait of 2735 Private Stanley Roy Niddrie, 58th Battalion from Hamilton, Victoria. A 19 year old drover prior to enlisting in the AIF on 3 August 1915, he embarked for overseas with the 6th Reinforcements of the 23rd Battalion from Melbourne on 27 October 1915 aboard HMAT Ulysses. He joined the 58th Battalion in France on 23 February 1916 and was promoted to Lance Corporal on 4 March 1916, to Corporal on 6 August 1916 and to Sergeant (Sgt) on 22 March 1917. After serving six months with the 65th Battalion in mid-1917, he returned to the 58th Battalion. Sgt Niddrie was killed in action on 6 August 1918 near Villers-Bretonneux, France and is buried in the Villers-Bretonneux Military Cemetery. This is one of a series of photographs taken by the Darge Photographic Company which had the concession to take photographs at the Broadmeadows and Seymour army camps during the First World War. In the 1930s, the Australian War Memorial purchased the original glass negatives from Algernon Darge, along with the photographers' notebooks. The notebooks contain brief details, usually a surname or unit name, for each negative. The names are transcribed as they appear in the notebooks. | 2019-04-19T07:01:59Z | https://www.awm.gov.au/collection/DASEY1899/ |

Shayla Who?: thursday night details.

I previously wrote an article stating that the Texas Primary Elections will likely be split with one in March and the other in May. This is what the Texas Republican Party and the AG argued for.
Not everyone likes that idea though, and there are many who want only one Primary election date, including both Democrats and a good number of Republican State Senators and Texas Congressmen.
We will find out soon from the San Antonio Federal Court whether we will have two Texas Primaries (one in March and One in May) of whether ALL the Primary Elections in Texas will be pushed back to a later day, likely in May.
I certainly understand some of the reasons for not wanting to have a split Primary, including the extra costs and confusion. I also completely respect the opinions of the State Senators and Congressmen who are for just one later primary date. I do have concerns that this later primary election will devastate the Texas Vote in the Presidential Primary Election.
A HUGE drawback of pushing back all the primary Elections in Texas would be that it would hurt the ability of Texas to choose the next Republican Presidential Candidate in what would be the biggest election against the Democrats in the History of America.
Right now, Texas is in position to have a major say in the Republican Presidential Primary election. A later primary Election would give Texas nearly no chance of having a major impact on who the Republican Presidential Candidate will be.
The RNC made a rule that if certain states had their primary Elections before March 2012 and February 2012, then those state would lose HALF of their Presidential Primary Delegates. Well, most of the states that have primary elections before Texas have not complied with this rule and therefore those States will lose half of their Republican Presidential Primary Election Delegate Votes. A Candidate needs 1214 Delegates in order to have a majority of the Republican Presidential Primary Delegates and win the Republican Nomination.
As it stands, at the end of February 2012, and going into the March Texas Primary Election, there will only have been 87 Republican Presidential Delegates Selected (after the penalties).
Texas Has 155 Presidential Primary Delegates!
With 155 Delegates, A Texas Presidential Primary Election in March could COMPLETELY alter the Republican Presidential Race with Texas getting to pick the leader.
On the other hand, a Presidential Primary Election in May would give Texas very little say in the Republican Presidential Race because many more delegates will have been selected and the media will likely have already decided who the leader is by that point in time.
We will find out soon from the San Antonio Federal Judges whether we will have two Texas Primaries (one in March and one in May) orwhether ALL the Primary Elections in Texas will be pushed back to a later day, likely May. | 2019-04-21T12:21:31Z | https://www.texasgopvote.com/2012-elections/one-2012-texas-primary-election-may-instead-two-march-and-may-would-devastate-tx-003633 |
An Dúlamán Irish Maritime Gin is the first gin distilled in Co. Donegal. Dúlamán is the name of an Irish folk song which relates a conversation between two seaweed collectors (it is also the name of one of our gin seaweeds). The coast around Sliabh Liag holds an extraordinary bounty for such foragers with their centuries-old knowledge of harvesting and harnessing the qualities of these natural products. An Dúlamán bottles are reminiscent of those found along the Donegal coast during the wrecks of the Spanish Armada. Each bottle is wax sealed and the batch number is linked to the lunar phases.
To make An Dúlamán we capture “Draíocht na Farraige” (the magic of the sea) by using five locally harvested varieties of seaweed, as well as six other botanicals. This makes An Dúlamán as unique as the Donegal coast itself.
To ensure that An Dúlamán maintains its characteristic complexity and softness we have learned that Méabh (our still) likes a low ABV in the pot, and to run in a narrow temperature band to manage the delicate seaweeds. To top it off we take a divilishly narrow cut.
To capture the dry tang of a sea breeze over our wild coastline, An Dúlamán contains five seaweeds including Sweet Kombu, Dulse, Pepper Dulse, Dulaman and superfood Carrageen Moss, bringing an authentic and innovative “umami” twist to the gin category. Bottling at 43.2% is the best ABV at which delicate and complex flavours can be savoured.
An Dúlamán works well with any premium tonic water, especially with lemon tonic or bitter lemon. A dash of elderflower cordial and An Dúlamán topped up with soda water is a tasty alternative. Classic gin cocktails are a must try with An Dúlamán – our own favourite is the Negroni, the soft earthy tones of An Dúlamán stand up to the bitterness of Campari, and of course it makes a mighty martini, with a good splash of vermouth. | 2019-04-26T02:07:48Z | https://www.sliabhliagdistillery.com/an-dulaman/ |

Whispers Of A ‘Thrilling Tale’ In Santa Fe?
The media and secular scientists alike claim that observing things in the present make a “huge” impact of what went on in the past! However, when does observable reality imply about unobservable reality and is this unobservable reality created by scientists really real?
Wait a minute, did this Great Unconformity only happen in a region around Santa Fe? It’s pretty obvious throughout the Grand Canyon as well, where underlying rocks, even tilted sediments, were planed flat as a pancake over a vast area. Also there are new sediments that lie on top of this clear boundary, sometimes with huge boulders embedded in the sandstone. Whatever caused a violent shearing force to underlying igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks covered a wide area.
Even heavily biased for evolution, Wikipedia states, “Geologist John Wesley Powell called this major gap in the geologic record, which is also seen in other parts of the world, the Great Unconformity.” What caused it? The Milwaukee Evolutionist League attempted to refute the idea that the “Great Unconformity” was evidence for a global flood, recorded in the Bible.
On the contrary, this is a very poor explanation of what happened in the past! Where are the valleys, like Yosemite? Where are the moraines? Where are all the millions of meteors that supposedly fallen in a billion years ago, and why were none of them large enough to end the ice age? Where are numerous gullies, channels and faults running through the Great Unconformity that were verify such an hypothesis? Also, if the whole world were a mountain covered with ice, the glaciers would have no place to slide and plane off the surface. The evidence suggests sediments quickly became deposited, which indicates a flood not an ice glacier which in turn verifies the Bible!
In a stellar evolutionary model, one is to imagine a faint sun only being able to keep the earth at below freezing and wouldn’t warm up for another 2-3 billion years while assumptions in geology claim that water was plentiful and not frozen about 3-4 billion years ago! This problem has riddled scientists for decades.
The articles goes on to say, that it’s premature to discard the greenhouse hypothesis, claiming temperatures back then were at least as high as they are today. The greenhouse hypothesis is the only mechanism known to man that could keep the planet warm, there is none other so naturally they would hang on to it. Also, scientists who are caught in up the evolutionary story tend to act as if they know this or that, but there is no basis for any of it, but rather say it’s a “long chain of further refinements of our understanding.” Did you see much understanding of what they are talking about and how close they think they are to rescuing their theory? To have a chain of understanding there must be solid links! | 2019-04-23T01:01:34Z | https://thebibleistheotherside.wordpress.com/tag/geology/ |

It’s 2078 and our college professor bot assigned for us to look at our grandparents “digital footprint”. After some basic research, I’ve found that 99% of all Snapchat pictures sent were made public after the company’s crash in 2053. I’ve found this guy that uses the username littlegunman, and I’ve also learned that he wished could change it since he made it when he was little and gets heat for it in his high school and college years. He seems to be a shy person, I can tell a lot from the types of pictures people send. For instance, people with outgoing personalities use a lot of filters and selfies. Artsy people send pictures of artsy and interesting things where as shy people send pictures of random things, like blurry pictures, blank screens and other pictures of meaningless things. I’ve also learned that depending on the person he’s talking to, his type of pictures change. If its a disliked person he will send what I consider “careless pictures” that are just what I’m assuming are just whatever was open when he hit reply. If he likes the person, he might send a picture of himself (although these pictures make up less than 1% of his entire file) or something where the picture is focused.
I think the conclusions they would draw for our community is that everyone essentially has the same online presence. What I mean by this is that everyone has the same accounts, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Etc. and this causes this sense of uniformity, causing it to seem as if everyone does the same things, for instance posting vacation pictures on Instagram, or sending streaks on Snapchat. When in reality if you look into these acts, you can see a lot about the way someone is. In their vacation pictures, are they in the picture? Are they facing the camera or away from it? And so on. The same can be done for any online act; when they send streaks what did they send a picture of? We can analyze anyone’s online actions to learn more about them and their culture. In example, we could look back at myspace and learn about the cultural change within our generation itself. We might not realize it, but we can learn a lot about someone’s culture by just what they post online. | 2019-04-21T18:04:21Z | https://natespage.home.blog/2018/10/05/the-folklore-we-create-post/ |

Every city has a key feature. The moment I put my eyes in New York I couldn't stop admiring the blue skies and the iron escape stairs. They are indeed NYC signature.
Love the eclectic façade, perfect iron stairs and it couldn't blend more perfectly with the infinite.
For now, blue sky will be called New York Blue, my favourite colour.

I approach film as a field of potentiality, analogous to the blank canvas, wherein light, mediated by the camera, draws the image. These photographs specifically reference attributes of the camera, film and process such that meaning becomes as much a dialog internal to the image as one dependent on the symbolic significance of the objects in the photographs.
Abstraction upsets our habits of casual association, calling upon us to re-establish meaning on new terms, enlivening our experience of perception. | 2019-04-19T04:26:11Z | https://www.charlespurvisphoto.com/new-page/ |
Most of us are confused about going green, nervous about having to convert our homes into environmentally sound palaces - and terrified of the financial penalties being threatened if we don't.
And politicians fighting to be the greenest of them all as they promise myriad taxes to price us out of the skies are enough to make the average citizen rush out and book the longest-haul flight, or swap their petrol-electric Toyota Prius for a huge gas guzzler. It's all a bit daunting. But don't despair. Here are the 15 easiest ways to reduce your carbon footprint.
1 Stop drinking bottled water We are lucky to have high-quality water coming from our taps for next to nothing in Britain. Why not drink it? We use 2.7 million tonnes of plastic to bottle water each year. Only about 10 per cent of bottles are recycled; most go to landfill sites, where they take around 450 years to break down. One litre of water weighs a kilo. Imagine how much fuel is used carrying it from its source in the Alps or the Highlands.
Buy filters to reduce the chlorine content if you don't like the taste, but some experts insist that tap water is of better quality (with higher mineral content and lower risk of contamination) than bottled.
2 Don't use carrier bags In Britain, we use around 8 billion plastic bags every year. That's more than 130 plastic bags each annually, and for most of us they are an irritation. How many cupboards under the sink are stuffed with them? Re-use your bags or, better still, get hold of a re-usable one that's cheap and sturdy.
3 Watch your water use The average bath uses 80 litres of water, twice as much as the average shower. If you normally clean your teeth for three minutes, turning the tap off while you brush will save almost 19 litres of water - that's more than someone in Kenya uses in a whole day. Ask your water company for a free "hippo" - a simple plastic device to put in the cistern to reduce the amount of water used in each flush. Flushing the lavatory accounts for around a third of all domestic water use.
4 Install a condensing boiler to heat your water and home, and cut your energy bills by at least 25 per cent. If everyone in Britain with gas central heating installed a condensing boiler, we would cut CO2 emissions by 17.5 million tonnes and save £1.3 billion on our energy bills every year. This is enough energy to supply more than 4 million homes for a year. A new boiler is a large investment (£1,500 plus), but at least you get a return for your outlay.
5 Use energy-saving light bulbs They don't have to be those loop-shaped ones that cast an ugly yellow hue. They come in all shapes and sizes now (see ebulbshop.com) and usually last at least 10 times longer than standard bulbs, using a fifth of the energy. You could save around £100 a year if you switched. If everyone in Britain replaced just one 100W light bulb with a 20W energy-saving one, we'd save the same amount of energy as that produced by Sizewell B nuclear power station.
6 Don't overfill your kettle If just 15 families filled only to the level needed they would save 1 tonne of CO2 emissions every year.
7 Lower your thermostat by 1 degree C It will cut your annual fuel bills by a 10th and save 240kg of carbon over a year.
8 Buy organic food Organic food production causes much less environmental damage than conventional agriculture. Make sure the food is locally produced. Half of all vegetables and 95 per cent of fruits eaten in Britain are from overseas, and the average meal travels more than 1,000 miles before it reaches your plate.
If you buy from farmers' markets, you will have the satisfaction of buying directly from the producer, there's no plastic packaging and your vegetables will last longer than the supermarket ones. Even if you shop like this only some of the time, it will have a big impact over your lifetime. Bigbarn.co.uk will tell you where to find your nearest farmers' market or producer.
9 Reset your computer Switch your screensaver setting to "none" or "blank screen" and set your computer to enter power-saving mode after 10 minutes of inactivity. Leaving your computer on overnight can waste enough energy to laser print 800 A4 pages. That adds up to 2,600 kilowatt-hours of energy each year, producing up to 1.9 tonnes of CO2, without doing any work.
10 Save paper Each office worker in Britain generates an average of 50 sheets of paper per day. If you use both sides of the paper, this will decrease your greenhouse gas emissions by 2.5 kilograms for every kilogram of paper used.
11 Don't buy "sweaty" fabrics such as nylon and polyester They're made from petrochemicals in a process that uses large amounts of energy, water and synthetic lubricants. The nitrous oxide released during the manufacture of nylon is 310 times more potent than CO2 as a greenhouse gas. Opt for natural fabrics whenever possible.
12 Use your washing line Tumble dryers use more energy than any other household appliance, so use them only as a last resort. Cut your tumble dryer use by one load a week and you will reduce your CO2 emissions by 91kg a year.
13 Wash at lower temperatures What is it with the British and the hot wash? In Japan, Europe and even America, clothes are typically washed below 30 degrees. Washing at a lower temperature - especially as the average British family does 247 loads a year - is an easy way to save a lot of energy. If everyone did it, we'd have enough spare energy to power half a million homes.
14 Convert to a green energy tariff Supplying your home with electricity produced from renewable sources will cut your household CO2 emissions by up to a third, and takes a single phone call. Good Energy and Ecotricity both provide 100 per cent renewable tariffs, which may be marginally more expensive than typical providers - but as this will be an incentive to use less energy, your bills may end up lower. See www.uswitch.com/energy for details on the full range of green tariffs.
15 Recycle! This may sound obvious, but it is not just paper and plastic bottles that can be recycled - about 80 per cent of our waste is recyclable. Visit www.wastepoint.co.uk for what to do with the stuff that you can't put in your doorstep box or bags from the council.

Dundee Airport is located 3 km (1.9 mi) from the centre of Dundee, Scotland or, for navigation purposes, 0.5 NM (0.93 km; 0.58 mi) south of the city. It lies on the shore of the Firth of Tay and overlooks the Tay Rail Bridge.
Dundee Airport is the closest airport to the championship golf courses at St Andrews, Gleneagles and Carnoustie. The airport was opened in 1963 on land reclaimed from the Firth of Tay. Originally it had a 900 m (2,953 ft) grass runway. The first scheduled air service began on 5 July 1966, with a service to Glasgow. A fortnight later a feeder service was added for Turnhouse and Prestwick. The service was stopped on 31 October 1967 after British Eagle reported 10,000 losses. Around this time the control of Dundee City Council changed from Labour to Conservative and the airport was closed and the land used by Dundee University as playing fields. When control of the Council changed back again to Labour the airport was reopened.

Panettone (paan eh tony) bread is one of my favorite things to make for Christmas. It is better than cookies and it’s pretty! I love pretty on my Christmas table. The light and airy sweet bread also accents the heavier foods we stuff ourselves with at holiday meals.
When I first saw this made, there were so many pieces, I was completely bored. Not sure about y’all, but when I first started cooking, I wanted pretty, fun AND easy. This was less than fun. Then I tasted it and my goodness, I was hooked. I HAD to learn how to make this! Did I mention it was pretty? That year, I made so many, we gave out individual panettones as gifts to everyone we knew. It was for practice, y’all!! I remember that like it was yesterday. There might’ve been some funny looks when I went to the grocery store for oranges, lemons, raisins and rum extract three times in one day.
Now, it is fun and such an ingrained tradition that it has become beautiful for a different reason. The few things I learned along the way, 1) NO, it is not Italian fruit cake. 2) Yes, it takes a longtime, but it is totally worth it. 3) use whatever accents you want, fruit,different fruit, chocolate or none. They will all taste good.
Combine warm milk, yeast and 1 tsp sugar in a bowl. Set aside and let foam for 10 minutes.
In the bowl of a mixer, cream together remaining sugar, butter and vanilla. It will become light and fluffy (about 4-5 minutes).
Turn mixer to low, add lemon and orange zest. Then add eggs one at a time and mix until all are well incorporated.
Whisk flour and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour and fold in the yeast and egg mixtures.
Using bread hook, knead for 5-6 minutes until the mixture starts to come together. The dough will be very sticky and won’t be a smooth ball of dough.
Pour the dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, by hand. Keep your hands and board well-floured to prevent dough from sticking and tearing.
Put dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and keep in a warm place for 2 hours, until dough has doubled in size.
During the 2 hour rise, prepare your candied orange and lemon peels. Place the raisins in a small saucepan with the rum extract and heat on low for 5 minutes. Set all fruits aside to cool.
When dough has doubled, turn it out on a lightly floured board and knead for another 5 minutes. Gradually knead in raisins, candied orange peels and candied lemon peels.
Shape the dough into a ball and drop into prepared Panettone pan/pans. If you do not have a metal panettone pan, wrap each Panettone paper wrapper with parchment paper and baker’s string. This helps the dough cook upright instead of out. Cover in plastic wrap and let rest for about 90 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325F and place rack in the middle of the oven.
Remove the plastic wrap and brush the top of the Panettones with egg wash and sprinkle sugar over the top. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
When done, pull bread out and allow to cool completely. Remove baker’s string and let rest.
Optional: Dust the top with confectioner’s sugar when ready to serve.

A Gurn from Nurn: Almost as bad as a carbuncle nomination?
One of our regular readers points us in the direction of a Chavtowns.co.uk. Yesterday there was outrage splashed on the front page of the Highland News about the claims about Inverness on that site. It just shows how one anonymous individual can blow up things out of all proportion.
This observer notes that the article in question was posted in October of last year and it has taken this long for "outrage" to emerge. Normally the web works faster than that. | 2019-04-25T18:25:35Z | http://www.gurnnurn.com/2012/01/almost-as-bad-as-carbuncle-nomination.html |
I cannot believe we are already talking about St. Patrick’s Day! It seems like just yesterday it was Christmas. These days and months go by faster and faster, the *ahem* older I get. We are gearing up for some big changes in our house, but that doesn’t mean we can’t take a few minutes out of our day to play! These playdough mats are perfect for a little fun time, while learning. They also coordinate beautifully with the Tot & PreK-K pack I created a couple years ago.

I agree, great Pizza, great Gelato, nice atmosphereWonderful meal, lovely owner - best Tiramisu!
... evening's specially prepared dishes and the wines we might enjoy with them.... don’t forget the guava cheese cake to die for !! Full bar is also a plus.
The pizza we ordered was absolute delish and we have been back several times for more !! It was a real Italian pizza and was served by the Italian owner ! Very nice place to go for pizza !!
The restaurant was relatively convenient to the hotel where we were staying. Friendly service, nice back patio. The dishes were generally good. Very interesting "vegetarian burger".
Dear JSP-OH, Thank you so much for your review.
We had supper at La Caverna and absolutely loved the meal and atmosphere. We are definately going back again on this trip.

Ahead of the release of one of the most talked about tennis films, we take a look at the clothes, the nostalgia and one of the biggest rivalries in the world of tennis.
The story of some of the greatest tennis players that ever lived took place at a pinnacle era from the late 70’s to the early 80’s, with casual sportswear taking its grip across the nation. As football firms and the early casuals were adopting the style, it was the courts where it really kicked off with the famous Borg vs McEnroe rivalry becoming a talking point for decades to come. The two tennis legends came head to head on numerous occasions from 1978-1981 in some of the most celebrated Grand Slams such as the Wimbledon and US Open finals. These guys were like the Georgie Bests’ of the tennis world, the best at their trades and playboys off the court. The contrast between the two also buzzed up the rivalry like any big sporting event, with McEnroe known for his on court aggression and temper whilst Borg had a more laid back demeanour. Rivalry aside, these guys were the pin up boys for 80s casual sportswear from Sergio Tacchini to Fila, with a new growing movement across the terraces taking note and adopting the sportswear look.
After 14 matches in total, it is the Borg v McEnroe Wimbledon Final in 1980 that is still considered one of the all time greats in tennis history. The soon to be released film ‘Borg vs McEnroe’ follows the story of the two tennis greats and their pursuit of Wimbledon glory. Directed by Janus Metz Pedersen the film stars Sverrir Gudnason (Björn Borg) and Shia LaBeouf (John McEnroe) looking at their ferocious training routines and the lead up to the tournament itself, on and off the court.
Above: John McEnroe and Björn Borg (left), Shia LaBeouf and Sverrir Gudnason (right).
However, there is one thing you might be wondering, where is the Fila and Sergio in the film? Well it looks like its a case the film used unbranded sportswear for the wardrobe as the rivalry claims some of the finest casual sportswear to ever set foot on the planet. The famous Fila MK1 Settanta worn by Borg and the Sergio Tachini Ghibli tracktop worn by McEnroe have more tennis heritage than anything else ever made. Not to mention the Fila MK1 Settanta polo shirt, the Fila Mk2 Settanta shorts and of course the legendary Diadora Borg Elite trainers. The era marked a movement of new and colourful apparel which has since become some of the most collectable and desirable sportswear in the world.
The Borg vs McEnroe film will be releasing in cinemas nationwide from 22nd September 2017. In the meantime why don’t you check out our range of classic tennis sportswear and tracktops at 80scasualclassics.co.uk from the nostalgic tennis era. | 2019-04-24T16:09:13Z | https://www.80scasualclassics.co.uk/blog/borg-vs-mcenroe-story-two-tennis-legends/ |

"I went to Memphis to take the seminar Appraising Convenience Stores. Robert Bainbridge wrote the book for the Appraisal Institute and taught the seminar. It was the best seminar I have ever taken. One thing you learn from the seminar is that the Hyper Markets(c-stores) like Wal-Mart gas and Sam's Club are hurting the c-store business and many are in trouble. I read Home Depot may be selling gas soon. If any of you have a chance to take his seminar you ought to take it."
I enjoyed the seminar Appraising Convenience Stores tremendously. It was one of the best seminars I have attended in a long time.
Please note: It is recommended that students bring a calculator to the seminar.
Learn to appraise convenience stores and gas stations. Updated and expanded, this is the only nationally-accredited instruction on the valuation of these special-purpose properties.
Separate earnings to real estate, FF&E and intangibles.
The seminar includes learning aids such as video interviews, valuation field examples, an FF&E value calculator, and an automated EBITDA Excel template.
The modules in this seminar follow closely the Appraisal Institute’s book, Convenience Stores and Retail Fuel Properties: Essential Appraisal Issues.
There are a total of nine mandatory student exercises and a final case study assignment to give students hands-on experience in applying the seminar concepts. These exercises are intense and require a fair amount of time to complete them. Please note that the instructor may take 3-5 days to review your assignment so plan your time accordingly. You can advance through the program while you are waiting for your instructor to review your work. You will receive the completion certificate only upon receiving a satisfactory review of your final case study assignment.
An automated Excel worksheet with the suggested solution to the case study is provided at the end of the seminar.
Please note that that participants must complete all mandatory assignments in the program. CREDIT WILL NOT BE GIVEN until the assignments are satisfactorily completed. The instructor may ask for a re-submission of an incomplete assignment. Please allow up to 5 days for the instructor to review an assignment. You may request expedited review by contacting the instructor. | 2019-04-24T00:25:48Z | http://www.myappraisalinstitute.org/education/seminar_descrb/Default.aspx?sem_nbr=OL-765&key_type=OOS |

Can dairy actually harm your skin?
We all grew up with parents encouraging us to drink milk for its calcium content, but did you know that dairy can actually do more harm than good?
Growing up, our parents often told us to finish our milk in order to get stronger bones and grow taller. Most of us think of milk as a good thing, but apparently, dairy can wreak havoc on your body. Don’t believe us? Just read on.
According to numerous studies, dairy calcium has little to no protective effect on bones. An increased intake of calcium from dairy products can even put you at a higher risk of fracture! That’s because the high protein content of dairy products acidifies your body’s pH and leeches calcium from your bones.
Another problem is that dairy cows are often injected with synthetic growth hormones to increase milk production. These cows are often kept pregnant, which means that they’re pumped full of hormones, both natural and synthetic, which gets passed to the milk. Surely that cannot be good for us? Excess hormones has been linked to numerous issues, including breakouts and fertility. Yikes!
By the way, did you know that most Asians are lactose intolerant? That means that dairy products can cause gastrointestinal problems, including flatulence and bloating. But not only that, the mortality rate in women who consumed three servings of milk a day was twice as high as those who drank less. Are these two things linked? Who knows, but we’re not risking it.
Our advice? Ditch the dairy and switch to alternatives like soy milk and nut milk — they’re healthier, and just as delicious! | 2019-04-21T00:20:58Z | http://asia.be.com/beauty/health/tips-and-tricks/can-dairy-actually-harm-skin-168465.html |
Was Rios-Alvarado that good? I saw it was on HBO the other night but didn't think it would be worth my time to stay up haha.
It probably is a step down in intensity from their first bout, but wouldn't be?
It is still going to be mentioned as a fight of the year candidate and it was a very close, very intense fight with both guys landing a lot of clean shots but without the fight devolving into a hands-down slugfest. If you like boxing at all, I think it's a fight worth seeing. They've probably set up a third fight later this year.

I entered the village where the École des Femmes (School for Women) meets, and greeted the chief and the instructors. I had been invited to share a short message with the women. My missionary friend who runs the school had informed me that the women I would be meeting had already made professions of faith in Christ. They were studying Scripture and the principles of a Christian home and marriage, and learning how to read, write, cook, and sew.
Women in this country are so downtrodden. I wanted to leave them with something meaningful, but what would encourage these lovely women who face so much difficulty on a daily basis and still readily smile and laugh with me?
As I prayed and watched the women proudly show what they’ve been learning, God reminded me of how I got to where I am today and that I should tell them. I shared with them that once, over thirty years ago, a missionary woman was old and poor in health and had to return to the U.S., her home country. She did not stop being a missionary, though. She spoke to groups of children and told them about Jesus, and that is how I first heard the Gospel and asked Jesus to be my Savior. She was old. She was physically frail. She was a woman. But God used her to work a miracle – to give me new life in Christ – and now I was there to share my story with them.
I had originally planned to share with them that we are all missionaries, not just those of us whom God sends to faraway lands. They are missionaries in their villages. They are missionaries when they visit relatives and friends in other villages. They are missionaries in their own homes. Instead, God prompted me to share a specific example of this—how He used one humble woman to change the lives of others. They could relate to her and understood that God can use them too. | 2019-04-25T23:48:10Z | https://hub.maf.org/devotional/were-all-on-a-mission |

Hollywood, 1927. George Valentine (Jean Dujardin) is a successful silent movie star. But the advent of talking movies plunges him into oblivion and makes a young extra named Peppy Miller (Bérénice Bejo) into a huge star. This movie retraces their destinies, or how fame, pride and money can become obstacles to a love story.
la Lon Cheney style and made a resurgence as a viable art form once again ~ 84 years since the talkies pushed their way into Hollywood and 75 year after the last widely considered ‘relevant’ silent film flickered on the big screen. What’s interesting to me is that, sure I’m certain the film is good, but part of what the buzz is about is the novelty of a silent film. A silent film is far from novel.
From the looks of the trailer, it looks stunning and powerful, with a killer score to match. Fingers crossed & prayers made that this film realizes it’s potential and doesn’t suffer the same fate that ‘Louis’ seems to have.
Silent Movies: why it’s hard to like them but why it’s worth it.
I came across this post about silent horror films a bit ago on WordPress’s main page. I reposted it and you may’ve read it by now. The author hit the nail on the head…or rather hit the coffin nail into the coffin as her post dealt largely with the silent horror film Nosferatu. The blog is worth the read and the film is worth the watching and was the inspiration of this post.
To those who know me or at least have read a few posts on this blog, you’ll gather that I love and adore old films. Specifically silent films. Silent cinema is my favorite artistic medium and I’ve even made one myself. But there is one thing that is interesting yet not all together surprising; people at large don’t generally like silent films. For the longest time I didn’t know why. When I saw The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari for the first time I was mesmerized.
When I saw Buster Keaton’s The General, I was hooked for life. Interestingly it is a badge of honor among the artsier-and-fartsier-than-thou to say “oh I love silent film” yet for the average Joe and average Jane they’ll take Rush Hour over The Gold Rush any day of any week of any year.
Silent movies are fatiguing though I don’t mean this is a negative way whatsoever. It’s a positive. They are fatiguing because they are engaging. They are engaging in ways that modern movies are not. For instance, you can go to the theater and chat with whoever is next to you, talk on the phone, watch the silhouettes of the people around you, check your email, send a tweet about being at the movies and still not miss a beat of what’s going on. No imagination is required either. It’s all done for you. A bunch of guys in white shirts and ties made sure that you’re spoon-fed every plot device and want to reduce the amount you’ll have to ‘work’ (i.e. think) to watch the movie. With silent film it’s a different story. There’s actually very minimal use of title cards in silent films. The filmmakers did not want to rely on title cards but rather they held fast to the “show, don’t tell” mantra. And that’s not to say that the characters in the films went around like mimes with their mouth shut trying to act out what they’re trying to communicate with broad gestures. It’s much more subtle than that. Often times characters will ‘speak’ on camera but, lo and behold, it’s up to you, dear watcher, to imagine what they’re saying based on the context and other visual cues. No title cards. For an hour or two of this, this can get fatiguing as the general public is not used to using their thinking muscles while watching Avatar. This fact, mixed with our culture’s ever-shortening 140 letter attention span, is a recipe for dismal result when you introduce thinking into one’s entertainment.
But I submit to you that this is a privilege, not a liability, for silent cinema. It’s an art form that takes, not merely gives. It’s an engaging exchange, a wordless dialog without words between the film and the film watcher. It’s an art form that commands attention like no other work of art can and it’s an art form in which you become part of the creative process. It’s entertainment that challenges you to take off your bib and put on an apron. The 3D movies that we are being force-fed come with the promise put the viewer inside the movie watching experience yet it appeals to no other senses than it did before. Our brains can remain in the ‘off’ position from beginning to end but now we can see terrible movies in one extra dimension now! Another dimension of terrible! How is that a privilege? How is this advancement?
Silent film star Mary Pickford famously said, “It would have been more logical if silent pictures had grown out of the talkies instead of the other way around”. Many of the silent film stars of the 1920’s felt that pantomime was the highest form of art and that talking pictures, first widely accepted in 1927, was a devolution of the craft of film rather than an evolution of it. Pickford is famous for her complaints against the ‘new’ talking pictures, comparing them to, “putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo”. Iconic silent film hero Charlie Chaplin echoed this sentiment in a different way by saying in 1928, “Moving pictures need sound as much as Beethoven’s symphonies need lyrics“. By sheer necessity, the craft of pantomime grew and grew and silent film had quickly become a universal language.
Cinematography also was just starting to grow by leaps and bounds because, as I mentioned, the medium was almost completely visual without the dialog to lean on and carry the film. It became the camera’s job to “show, not tell”. Again, I know a lot of popular conceptions about silent film is that the camera is static, the shots are clumsy at best but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Take 1927’s “Sunrise; A Tale of Two Humans” by Nosferatu director, F.W. Murnau which was released right as sound made it’s way to Hollywood. Beautifully long and graceful tracking shots, hardly any title cards throughout, and some very state of the art special effects. It is the silent film that you wouldn’t expect to be a silent film. It really is a shame that the ‘talkies’ came along so early on as I feel that it slowed down the innovative direction that cinematography was heading. George Lucas even admitted that he doesn’t think film, and particularly cinematography, still to this day, has fully recovered from film’s transition to sound.
Wow! I covered more than I’d intended to but I suppose my passion for these films is clear and that’s really what I wanted to communicate. These films are gems and I find them to be more satisfying to experience them and I hope that more and more people will explore these films for themselves. They are the great-grandparents of every single modern film you have ever seen or ever will see. They are time-capsules. They are engaging works of art that invite you to invest in their continual creation and interpretation. They might be hard to like but they are so, so, so worth your time.
I’m working on a post about silent film but I’m going to have to interrupt that post with another post about silent film. Google’s ever changing “google doodle” logo is paying tribute to Charlie Chaplin’s 122nd birthday with a short Chaplinesque silent film. His birthday is actually tomorrow so I’m a little confused as to why it showed up today but I digress. In place of the regular Google logo there is a small movie clip and the play button is cleverly paced right over the Chaplin-character’s tiny toothbrush mustache.
The movie itself is actually very cute though one thing is glaringly obvious: you can’t just add a b&w filter on your sped up footage and think you’re Charlie Chaplin. You don’t realize how very subtly good the likes of Chaplin, Buster & Harold were until you see someone trying to imitate them. The genius and the years spent honing their craft really shines through when held up against those who were merely inspired by them. The sheer genius of the masters is amazingly invisible on-screen, as well it should be. You notice it most when it’s not there.
It was a little bit on the spoofy side with all the clichés firmly in place but none the less I’m pleased to have YouTube and Google paying tribute to art forms of yesteryear. I have to point out ~~ that long-haired cop who bought the muffin for $2 must be mighty rich! With that price tag in 1923, he paid the equivalent of $26.14 for it! Iffy homework aside, well done Google! Make more~! Buster Keaton’s 116th is coming up in a few months!
Forget last week’s kudos to Google for their vintage Houdini logo. YouTube’s done gone n’ one up’d em’. In what I assume is in honor of April Fool’s Day, YouTube has a new logo (with a one day lifespan I’m sure) and has not so much revamped their site but revamped their videos.
First of all there’s this clever little video that shows what a few modern viral videos might’ve looked like had there been a YouTube 1911.
Now only that but each video has the option in the bottom right hand corner that allows you to watch it in 1911 style ~ jangly piano music, dust & scratches, with a nice sepia toned image. Well done, YouTube!
My question now is…why 1911? Is it to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Colt 1911 ? But that would’ve been March 29th. Ah well. Whatever the case, I love it when the modern goes old-timey. Three cheers for YouTube. | 2019-04-19T16:22:57Z | https://hairtonicandhorsefeathers.com/tag/silent-film/ |
Recently, Netflix announced that the popular TV show “13 Reasons Why” will be returning to small screens for its second season. Since its debut at the end of March, “13 Reasons Why” has captivated the hearts of young adults and suddenly become everyone’s #1 binge-worthy show. Naturally, with this upbringing of popularity comes controversy. However, it’s for a good reason.
Based off of a book about a teenage girl who gives tape recordings to those who lead her to commit suicide, the writers of “13 Reasons Why” sought to depict suicide in “unflinching” detail. While some naïve teenagers might be convinced of its good intentions, the show has received negative feedback from many mental health experts as well as more discerning members of the public.
Though the writers claim that they are trying to shed some light upon the severity of suicide, in reality they glorify it and paint an inaccurate portrait of mental health for impressionable teenagers across the world.
As expected of Hollywood entertainment, chemistry is created between the two protagonists Hannah Baker and Clay Jensen for the sake of establishing romance. Hannah Baker, the girl who commits suicide, and Clay Jensen, one of the people featured on her tapes, became romantically involved before Hannah killed herself.
Thus, viewers became more involved with the romantic aspect of the show rather than becoming more sensitive to the potent issues it attempts to address. And so the depiction of two lovers in high school really makes it seem as if suicide was a storyline taken out of a cheesy rom-com, when in reality, it is far more messy and should not be seen as entertainment.
Furthermore, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention lists “exposure to another person’s suicide, or to graphic or sensationalized accounts of suicide,” which the show takes pride in doing, as a risk factor for those with depression. Keeping this in mind, “13 Reasons Why” has failed to address the plotline with the seriousness it deserves, allowing the public to derive humor out of a topic that should not be taken so lightly.
Due to its widespread popularity, the public has reacted to the show with memes such as “welcome to your tape” along with thousands of Tumblr pages bashing on supporting characters and “shipping” Hannah and Clay together. There are gifs, there are tweets and there are even promposals. Oh yes, there are “13 Reasons Why” you should go to prom with me” posters adorned with flowers and chocolate roses that completely disregard the seriousness of suicide. Instead of understanding from the show that suicide is a grave matter, many members of Generation Z now use quotes from it as cute ways to ask someone out or as punchlines to a good joke.
Due to the portrayal of suicide on the show, viewers now see bullying as the sole reason behind suicide. We see Hannah cyber-bullied, taunted and sexually harassed by her classmates. While bullying may be an important factor behind suicide, the show does not give any attention to mental illness. Yet according to USA Today, 90 percent of people who commit suicide suffer from mental health problems. So, whether it be bipolar disorders or schizophrenia or substance abuse, “13 Reasons Why” trivializes the concept of suicide to only bullying and sends a message to the world saying: Be kind; it’ll save a life.
However, Yorkey’s words further prove that the creators of the show are failing to understand why it is receiving such heavy backlash. Was sensationalizing Hannah’s suicide — and the implicit suggestion that she was only recognized and appreciated after her death — not a way of painting suicide as a desirable alternative? Was going forth with the graphic depictions of self harm not detrimental to effectively addressing the issue of suicide?
Ultimately, the damage Netflix’s “13 Reasons Why” inflicts may have been unintended, but it echoes in the minds of teenagers whose perspectives are greatly influenced by the media they’re exposed to. Suicide is by all means a serious issue, and allowing it to be misconstrued as a glamorous and desirable alternative is distasteful.
If the creators truly wish to proceed with this hot mess of a show while disregarding the criticism it has received, “13 Reasons Why” will only serve to prove that Hollywood would rather capitalize off of sensitive topics than seriously consider ways that they can use their influence to help society. | 2019-04-25T20:31:36Z | https://tideline.news/2078/archive/how-13-reasons-why-glorifies-suicide/ |

These words are responsible for a completely spur of the moment trip that Wanderlustmate M and I took into Engadin, a region in Switzerland whilst on our jaunts in Italy. Through following my series “Footsteps in Italy” my Wanderlusters will probably recall that our adventures out here involved a road trip all the way from Florence to Lake Como. It was whilst we were driving from Milan to Como that we saw snow-capped peaks en route, which in my vivid imagination were none other than the Alps, and I just HAD to find a way to see them up close.
The one thing I love about Europe is borderless travel and how easy this makes it to hop from one country into another. For a Kenyan Passport Holder, a Schengen Visa is the epitome of traveller’s heaven because in my world, this allows me to see multiple countries on one Visa and that is simply amazing! Despite their proximity, the landscapes in each of the countries in Europe differ so much from place to place and the perfect way to traverse and explore this diversity is by taking a road trip. The prospect of simply getting into a car and going somewhere that catches my fancy is to me, the crux of wanderlust, the very essence of travel: to discover those places that I once dreamed about and revel in those moments, pinching myself to make sure that I am not dreaming but now breathing life into what was once a dream.
Setting footsteps in Switzerland on my quest for snow..
So, fuelled with wanderlust and the image of snow-capped peaks in mind, Wanderlustmate M and I set out to find me some snow. Poring over some old-fashioned maps in our hotel room in Como revealed that the Engadin Region was the closest and easiest to get to from where we were and ideal for a day trip and so we headed out to St. Moritz, the most glamourous of ski resorts frequented by the rich and famous when it comes to skiing holidays. Now, in my imagination, we would see endless mountain peaks blanketed with snow that go on for miles on end. In reality, at the tail end of summer, there isn’t any snow because it has all melted away and what your eyes are treated to is the view of lush alpine scenery, complete with beautiful blue lakes with green pastures and meadows fringed with mountains. It is completely unspoiled nature, and there is nowhere quite like this in the world.
I just cannot contain my excitement at the gorgeousness around me!
St. Moritz which would ordinarily be bustling with activity in the winter revealed a different side to it at the tail end of summer. Relatively quiet, we enjoyed a leisurely walk in its environs, just soaking in the atmosphere and simply wanderlusting. Surrounded by the Upper Engadin lakes and mountains, I can only imagine how pretty this place is in the winter, dusted with snow like powdered sugar on a Victoria sponge cake. The town itself is cutesy, lined with luxury boutiques and of course, irresistible Swiss chocolate shops selling the creamy bespoke gorgeousness that is Lindt. But that’s about it for St. Moritz in the summer, well for us anyway because we weren’t out here to indulge in any of the activities it has to offer other than to make my whims and fancies of seeing snow come true!
These fantasies my dear Wanderlusters, the lust to see snow, is the reason we stumbled upon a little gem out in the Engadin region: Muottas Muragl. See, in my mind, the Alps are perennially laden with snow and there isn’t any such thing as summer or winter, but of course, the reality is something else. I was stubbornly refusing to believe that there would be no snow for me after driving for nearly 3 hours from Italy into Switzerland and my Wanderlust spirit was insistent that surely there was some snow SOMEWHERE along the Alps, hopefully nearby that would make this fantasy come alive?
It is so true, what Paolo Coelho says. When you want something bad enough the whole Universe conspires to make this happen. Some furious googling revealed that indeed there was a high enough peak of the Alps that wasn’t too far from where we were and with this came the promises of…you guessed it, snow!
The drive, oh my gosh, the drive to get to Muottas Muragl was just something else. I wish I had the words to describe what can only be deemed breath taking. Our trusty Jane’s screen highlighted crazy hairpin twists and turns winding up the mountain, and with each mile, as we drove higher and higher, all we could say mutter under our breath was “WOW”. Google had promised us the best landscapes and views of the Engadin region from Muottas Muragl, and as we know, Google doesn’t lie…indeed, the scenery out here is spectacular, to say the least. Lush Alpine pastures with peaks and valleys go on as far as the eyes can see, dotted with enchanting little villages with beautiful chalets and blue glacier lakes. It is indeed a landscape of pure fairy tale’esque beauty.
Our destination: the Romantik Hotel at the top of the mountain range. The view: a panoramic, uninterrupted idyllic scene of never ending peaks, beautiful meadows, classic Alpine scenery and the cherry on the cake: the glacier glistening at the top surrounded with dustings of snow. It still wasn’t the endless peaks blanketed with snow that haunted my imagination but my little Wanderlusting heart was content. I got to see snow and even stand amidst some on the terrace at the Romantik Hotel, because it was that cold out there!
Yay….finally got to feel some snow!
I have a thing for signs!
I am a foodie as much as I am a Wanderluster and so of course being in Switzerland meant that I also had fantasies of the cheesy goodness that is raclette and fondue. Back home, my parents have this red cookery book by Hamlyn. I am a firm believer that the sole purpose of this cook book is simply to tantalise our taste buds because all we ever seem to do is flip through the pages and look at the delicious looking pictures and then end up cooking pasta! Anyway, one of the pictures in this recipe book is that of an ooey, gooey melting wheel of cheese that I have long since associated with Switzerland and given that I was here, of course this is what I had in mind when Wanderlustmate M asked me that all too familiar question of what I wanted to eat. Well, you win some and you lose some because there was no fondue or raclette on the menu at this restaurant, but there was potato rosti and a meat that I hadn’t tried before and had some qualms about eating – reindeer! Yup, I ate Rudolph! Eeeek! My sister has never forgiven me for that little revelation but my rule in life is to try everything at least once. There are some things I draw the line at, but I must admit I was curious as to what Reindeer meat tasted like and I dare say it was delicious!
Yup, I ate Rudolph! Eeek!
The irony is that my fondue dreams could have come true. Walking around the gorgeous pathways of the hotel after we had eaten and soaked in the views from the panoramic terrace, we stumbled upon a cute log cabin offering none other than what I had been lusting after: fondue! Yup, right here in the gorgeousness of Muottas Muragl was a story book picture of Swiss perfection, barely 10 minutes from where we had been sat. The moral of the story is to explore before settling, though in hindsight we had a perfectly wonderful lunch and I doubt I would have changed that, even for fondue! There is always a next time and I can’t wait to set Footsteps in Switzerland properly to explore more Alpine treasures and indulge my inner child’s whims and fancies of making snow angels in powdered snow and easing myself into a cheese induced food coma by eating too much raclette and fondue! I do hope you have enjoyed this little ramble. Until next time, Happy Wanderlusting! Xoxo.
St. Moritz is about a 2 hr 30 min to 3-hour drive away from Como. We simply input our current destination into our TomTom and followed the directions given. You can choose toll or non-toll roads, and we always find that though longer, the non-toll roads offer the best scenery and places for stopping to take beautiful pictures.
We did take our Passports with us for the border crossing in case of any checks, but there were none. I would still recommend you carry your passport even on day trips because you just never know, and it is always better to be safe than sorry.
The pictures say all, that why visiting Switzerland is everyone’s dream.No doubt, Switzerland is one of the most beautiful places in the world but In winters the beauty of Switzerland can’t be compared with any other place.
I felt like I was in a dream….still need to go back to see Switzerland in the winter!
I always admire beauty of nature and yes Switzerland is full of that beauty no doubt. But i would say that your way of expressing the that beauty also nice. You also beautiful lady.
Magnificent post.Road trips are always best.I love road trips.Love reading your blog.Pictures are also good.Thanks for the post.Keep sharing.
Thank you so much for stopping by Fred, and thank you for your wonderful commnent, glad you enjoyed the post!

The father of a six year old boy who recently become the youngest member of Mensa has called for better supports in school for gifted children like his son.
John Fitzgerald from Kildimo has the reading ability of a 15-year-old and has already read all the Harry Potter books.
He was able to recite the 12-times tables at the age of three and often solves sixth class maths problems in his spare time.
During a recent appearance on the Late Late Show, he stunned host Ryan Tubridy and the audience by performing a complex maths puzzle where he calculated the value of Ryan’s name by assigning a number to each letter and then adding them all up - in just seconds.
His father Barry recalls reading bedtime stories to his son when he was just two years old and John being able to point out any words he had missed.
Now in senior infants, John will skip first class and go straight into second class next September.
“He generally learns on his own and he partakes in the stuff he can partake in,” said Barry.
And, while he loves going to school in Kilcornan NS, Barry is concerned that the resources are simply not there to help children like his son realise their full potential.
“There are other kids there who are getting one-0n-one with the teacher and that is the kind of thing that he needs.
“Disadvantaged kids get the resources which is fair enough, but I have checked with the principal and John is not entitled to anything,” he said.
“He is special needs but in a different way,” Barry added.
In order for John to realise his full potential, Barry believes he needs special support for a few hours a week.
“The curriculum is never going to be a problem for him, but to get the one-on-one support to help him reach his full potential is the thing,” he said.
John made headlines recently when he was revealed as the youngest of Mensa’s 1,000 Irish members, with an IQ in the top 2% of the population. A week in which he was featured in several national newspapers was capped off with his Late Late Show appearance.
“He loves going to school, he loves his friends and he would never miss it,” he said.
And despite his extraordinary intellect, John remains an ordinary little boy with a passion for soccer and especially his beloved Manchester United.
“He’s passionate about Wayne Rooney and another hero is Roy Keane. John recently did a school project on another idol, Pele,” Barry added. | 2019-04-26T13:38:44Z | https://www.limerickleader.ie/news/education/104095/More-supports-needed-for-gifted-kids.html |

Critics of Donald Trump are apoplectic about the possibility that the Republican presidential nominee could align himself with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Ever since the two men offered words of praise for each other -- Putin referring to Trump as "bright," and Trump praising Putin's leadership ability -- critics have parlayed their own fear and discontent into a smear campaign against both.
The question is: Why do these critics consider possible U.S.-Russian cooperation to be so apocalyptic?
"(Trump) is, rather, an oligarch in the Russian style -- a rich man who aspires to combine business with politics and has an entirely cynical and instrumental attitude toward both," Anne Applebaum wrote.
That seems like a better description of Hillary Clinton. I'll explain in a minute.
Oligarchy, by definition, is state-sponsored welfare. Putin has made no secret of the fact that he despises the class of oligarchs who were handpicked for their political connections, then mismanaged and abused the massive wealth and assets entrusted to them under the leadership of former Russian President Boris Yeltsin as the country transitioned to a free-market economy.
In America, Wall Street-style corporatism similarly corrupts true capitalism and the free market. The politically well-connected score themselves cushy Wall Street gigs, then influence democratically elected representatives through campaign donations. This results in laws that subsidize and benefit Wall Street over the interests of the average American.
Trump is a self-made entrepreneur who built a business empire, not a crony who was installed atop one. While he has admitted to availing himself of lobbying and borrowing provisions to further his business activities, Trump is now saying that he's the right person to blow up the system at its key trigger points since he knows exactly where they are.
"I am 'the king of debt,'" Trump wrote on Twitter two months ago. "That has been great for me as a businessman, but is bad for the country. I made a fortune off of debt."
So why isn't Hillary Clinton, who has spent virtually her entire life among establishment elites, being likened to an oligarch? If you're looking for someone whose team can go toe-to-toe in a perpetual game of footsie with the oligarchs, then perhaps Clinton is the president for you.
Emails released last week by the conservative organization Judicial Watch revealed that Clinton aide Huma Abedin fielded requests from wealthy and powerful Clinton Foundation donors seeking access to then-Secretary of State Clinton.
Back in April, The New York Times ran an article highlighting some interesting Clinton Foundation connections. The Times had received an advance copy of the book "Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich," by Peter Schweizer.
In 2006, the Clinton Foundation received a $31.3 million donation from Canadian businessman Frank Giustra, who owned a significant stake in the company Uranium One, which had uranium-mining assets in Kazakhstan, among other places. Presumably, the Russians weren't happy about uranium assets in their backyard being entirely foreign-controlled. A subsidiary of the Russian atomic energy agency Rosatom acquired a 17 percent ownership stake in Uranium One in 2009. Rosatom obtained majority ownership of Uranium One in 2010, then acquired full control in 2013 and took the company private. Because Uranium One had mines in the U.S., the sale to Rosatom had to be approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, of which Clinton was a member as secretary of state.
Why doesn't the Clinton campaign take a page from the Trump playbook and run ads promoting her talents at playing all the angles? Perhaps because they realize that people are sick of scheming and backroom dealing and want more transparency and integrity from their elected representatives. That's a tall order, to be sure -- maybe even idealistic. But Clinton has left no reason for us to believe that she's the right candidate to give it a shot.
Perhaps the Russians wouldn't need to scheme if they weren't constantly pitted against schemers.
Newsweek ran an article this week titled "How Vladimir Putin is using Donald Trump to advance Russia's goals." Can't we consider the possibility that no one is "using" anyone, and that Russia's goals are simply aligned with those of Trump and the many Americans seeing to upend an establishment that rigs the system against the interests of the average citizen.
Putin and Trump both come off as proponents of capitalism -- not the corrupted version of it that we're seeing these days, but rather capitalism in a pure, free-market form. So you have to wonder why Trump critics are so afraid of these guys working things out. It's almost as if they're afraid that a cooperative approach will end up being successful. And then what? The military-industrial complex that has made a fortune on Cold War fear-mongering and deterrence would suffer a massive financial blow.
Fear is a very lucrative industry for some. For the rest of us, it's exasperating. | 2019-04-25T15:55:18Z | http://rachelmarsden.com/columns/trumpputin2.htm |

Hereford Quarries was established in 2015 as a new addition to the Wye Valley Group of companies. Having vast experience in the recycling sector spanning 40 years and with a portfolio already including demolition, metal recycling, car dismantling, skip hire, waste recycling, muck away, and reclamation, it was a natural progression to enter into recycled aggregates. Hereford Quarries actively promote the use of recycled aggregates from demolition and construction projects in order to minimise land fill and maximise sustainability.
From our dedicated recycling site at the former Lugg bridge quarry, Hereford, we are licensed by the Environment Agency to accept inert waste for sorting and processing aggregates and soils using crushers and screeners which enabled us to expand our range of recycled products.
Hereford Quarries recognises the need to protect the environment in which we live and work and use natural resources prudently across the whole of the services that we provide.

Workforce analytics has become an essential business tool for leading companies that view workforce performance as the key to improving company results, according to a new global survey of business leaders by Harvard Business Review Analytics Services. Workforce analytics is a set of integrated capabilities (technologies, metrics, data, and processes) to measure and improve workforce performance. The goal is simple: put the right people with the right skills in the right work, provide them with the necessary training and development opportunities, and engage and empower them to perform at their highest possible level.
Workforce analytics solutions are the key to answering such questions and getting the metrics and insights needed to make informed HR decisions and create actionable workforce plans. This paper explores the business case for investing in workforce analytics. It focuses on how cloud-based solutions hide complexity associated with HR data, as well as deliver best practices, minimize maintenance costs, and provide quick time to value.
Leveraging analytics to drive business growth is top-of-mind for corporate (C-Suite) leaders, prompting HR executives to take a more strategic, data-driven approach to workforce management. Learn the art and science of combining workforce data, business data and IT expertise together to allow HR departments to make more effective and efficient decisions about people.
Check out the latest Total Picture Radio interview with Ronald M. Katz. Discussion includes how top performing organizations are using talent analytics to measure and manage individual performance against goals.
The Secret to Reducing Hiring Mistakes?
In the face of an overabundance of numbers, knowing which metrics are most important can be a real challenge for Human Resource (HR) leaders and hiring managers. Fortunately, new analyses from the IBM Smarter Workforce Institute can provide some guidance.
Go from intuition- to fact-based workforce decision-making with this comprehensive guide to workforce analytics. This eBook includes advice on how to get started, tips to ensure successful implementation, and key recommendations for finding the right solution.

Download the full report and discover key trends, including how 91% of companies aspire to increase their workforce analytics maturity over the next 24 months.
An analytics revolution is upon us. Knowledge workers are in short supply, the competition for talent has gone global; turnover is rising; and employee engagement is stagnant at best. How can companies attract, retain, and develop employees who can drive business results and have the data to back up these decisions? A recent survey found more than 80% of respondents said that they needed talent-related insights to make business decisions. Yet most enterprises still base talent decisions on gut feeling. Few can offer analytic evidence to support their hunches. Now, finally, analytics are beginning to drive decisions about people.
Read an industry report or blog post on hot HR trends and technologies today, and you are bound to see workforce analytics near the top. Analysts and commentators agree: workforce analytics has become a “must have” tool for HR and a key component of delivering business value. But how do you get started with this complex topic? By thinking through the first four steps, you can develop the requirements to support the fifth step: selecting the right workforce analytics solution for your organization.

Rotary drum screen is a device used to prevent fine particles from inlet wastewater from damaging mechanical equipment. There are two kinds of drum sieve as internally flow and externally flow.
The wastewater enters into the drum drum screen at the inner flow. The effect of turning the spiral in the drum causes the wastes to flow out from the other side, while the treated wastewater from the inlet wastewater is collected under the drum and collected from the hopper.
On the other hand, for the externally drum screen, the wastewater is discharged outside the drum. The dirt that needs to be removed here remains on the surface of the drum and when it reaches the bottom with the effect of rotation, it is thrown away from the scraper combs. The wastewater enters the drum and reaches the collecting chamber on the equipment.
Rotary Drum Screen is applied especially in industrial wastewater treatment plants; textile, agriculture, paper, slaughterhouse, food, concrete and recycling wastewater treatment plants.
Rotary drum screen equipment we produce is manufactured from stainless steel sieve bars called wedge wire slots. The chassis part of the equipment is made of carbon steel or AISI 304 stainless steel.
The sieve openings are projected between 500 microns to 4 mm.
Wastewater inlet and outlet are manufactured with flange, which provides ease of connection to pump pipes.
Compared to static sieve bend screen, rotary drum screen need electricity energy connection.
The wedge wire stainless steel bars used in the sieve do not cause plugging problems. | 2019-04-18T14:55:52Z | http://aykosan.com/RotaryDrumScreen.php |
VIENNA – A senior U.N. official announced progress Friday in long-stalled efforts to resume a probe of suspicions that Iran may have worked to develop nuclear arms, saying the investigation could be restarted by early next year.
He acknowledged that a key IAEA request -- a visit to a site linked to suspected nuclear activity --was again denied. But he told reporters at Vienna airport that he expected IAEA experts to be allowed to go to Parchin and follow up on suspicions it might have been used as part of secret arms-related experiments once the probe is resumed.
In Tehran, Iran's state TV made no mention of progress, reporting only that there was no agreement on visiting Parchin. But Iranian envoy Ali Asghar Soltanieh also said a new meeting was set for Jan. 16.
While Nackaerts' comments gave cause for some optimism, they were not the first instance of a senior IAEA official saying that the standoff was close to resolution.
Returning from Tehran talks more than five months ago, IAEA chief Yukiya Amano said the two sides had agreed on "an almost clean text", saying a breakthrough deal would be signed soon. Follow-up IAEA-Iran meetings did not yield significant results.
Iran says it does not want atomic arms and has justified a nearly yearlong delay in cooperating with the IAEA's probe by saying that a framework regulating such an investigation must be agreed on first. But as talks on such an agreement have dragged on, agency officials have complained that they may be nothing more than a delaying tactic.
They are particularly concerned that such delays can hurt their efforts to investigate Parchin. The IAEA suspects that Iran has conducted live tests of conventional explosives there that could be used to detonate a nuclear charge and cited satellite photos indicating a cleanup of the site, at a sprawling military base southeast of Tehran.
Iran denies it is sanitizing the site, but Amano has warned that his agency's chances of a meaningful investigation there are diminishing.
Nackaerts offered no details on the substance of his talks. But diplomats familiar with the negotiations have said previously that the agreement was stalled because the IAEA wanted repeated access to sites, officials or documents of interest. Instead, Tehran demanded that once such access was granted, the person, document or site be off limits to the IAEA for repeated visits, questioning of viewing.
Amano's announcement of a nearly done deal in May came just days before the two sides met in Baghdad for a new round of negotiations meant to defuse tensions over Iran's nuclear program before leaving the negotiating table with little progress made.
This time, Nackaerts spoke of movement on the probe as Iran and six world powers again prepare to meet. The six nations hope the talks will result in an agreement by the Islamic Republic to stop enriching uranium to a higher level that could be turned relatively quickly into the fissile core of nuclear arms.
Iran denies such aspirations insisting it is enriching only to make reactor fuel and to make isotopes for medical purposes.
By compromising on the IAEA probe, Iran could argue that the onus was now on the six powers to show some flexibility, temper their demands, and roll back U.S. and European sanctions that have hit Iran's critical oil exports and blacklisted the country from international banking networks.
The IAEA has already visited Parchin twice -- the last time in 2005. But it did not have access then to satellite imagery then and visited buildings other than the one now pinpointed by the aerial photos. | 2019-04-20T06:36:22Z | https://www.foxnews.com/world/un-nuke-agency-reports-progress-on-probe-into-iran-nuclear-program |

"It’s a mission, not just a show," Marcia Clark tells us of her new A&E true-crime series.
Can’t stop thinking about the Casey Anthony murder trial and its deeply unsettling outcome? Or whether missing young Illinois mom Stacy Peterson, whose corrupt-cop husband Drew is imprisoned for killing her predecessor, died at Drew’s hand, too? Marcia Clark knows just how you feel.
In her new seven-part A&E series Marcia Clark Investigates the First 48, Clark—best known as the lead prosecutor in O.J. Simpson’s murder trial—and her team revisit famous murder cases and mysteries with disquieting conclusions, using the first two days of the original investigations as a foundation to re-examine the probes, players and evidence, and follow up on key details and witnesses initial investigators overlooked.
Each episode clocks in at a surprisingly fast-paced two hours, allowing Clark to present viewers with a jaw-dropping array of new information that is by turns infuriating and cathartic.
In Stacy Peterson’s case, Clark reveals the 23-year-old’s desperation, the startling information she confided in her pastor, and heartbreaking revelations by Drew’s stepbrother and a member of the crew that dragged the waterway thought to be Stacy’s final resting place.
A&E is giving fans of real-life legal drama lots to look forward to this spring.
Clark says she experienced goose-bump moments in every case her team took on.
Regarding Casey Anthony, "the computer search for ‘foolproof suffocation’ and the fact that it was most likely her, because the person who did the search was also the one who deleted the history, proves quite a few things actually," Clark says.
"The defense in that case was that she was partying for 30 days after the baby disappeared because she was disassociated, she was in a never-never land, she was in this weird mental state. Well, she couldn't have been in that weird of a mental state if she'd remembered she searched for foolproof suffocation and had the presence of mind to then delete that history when the police started sniffing around. All kinds of 'Wow’ moments!"
So even if Clark can’t retry the cases, she can give the public what she hopes is peace of mind—and folks whose knowledge about a case was never truly heard their due.
Clark is also at work on her upcoming ABC drama The Fix, about a disenfranchised prosecutor who leaves the profession for Montana ranch life after a Hollywood double-murder case goes foul, only to be drawn back when the guy may have killed again.
"It's a legal, soapy, legal thriller. Lots of fun," she says with a smile. And though the story might sound, well, just a tad familiar, Clark is adamant that neither the tale, nor the characters are "ripped from the headlines."
"No, no, no, no, no," Clark grins. "Living next to a writer is a terrible thing, because you're bound to see your experiences in something somewhere. But you will never recognize anyone. That's not fair. That's not nice. You won't have very many friends left, because no one wants to hang with you.
"Everything in my life finds a way into my books, into the script—there's no question about that. I just make sure I bury it well enough."
What Clark will never hide is the joy she feels when women approach her to share how she impacted their lives.
"I never thought of myself as a role model in any way, shape, or form, before or after the trial," Clark says. "When women came up to me to say, ‘Because of you, I went on to be a lawyer,’ or ‘Because of you, I left an abusive husband,’ each time it was breathtaking for me.
"I love seeing the way women pick themselves up and move on and get things done and overcome in ways that are just truly awe inspiring. To have them tell me I played a part in that is an incredibly humbling and moving experience. It's hard for me to believe." | 2019-04-25T14:03:00Z | https://www.tvinsider.com/673843/marcia-clark-investigates-the-first-48-interview/ |

BOSTON (AP) -- Dr. Jerri Nielsen FitzGerald, who diagnosed and treated her own breast cancer before a dramatic rescue from the South Pole, has died. She was 57. Her husband, Thomas FitzGerald, said she died Tuesday at their home in Southwick, Mass. Her cancer had been in remission until it returned in August 2005, he said Wednesday.
She was the only doctor among 41 staff at the National Science Foundation's Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station in winter 1999 when she discovered a lump in her breast. At first, she didn't tell anyone, but the burden became too much to bear.
Rescue was out of the question. Because of the extreme weather conditions, the station is closed to the outside world for the winter. She had no choice but to treat the disease herself, with help from colleagues she trained to care for her and U.S.-based doctors she stayed in touch with via satellite e-mail.
She performed a biopsy on herself with the help of staff.
A machinist helped her with her IV and test slides, and a welder helped with chemotherapy.
She treated herself with anti-cancer drugs delivered during a gripping mid-July airdrop by a U.S. Air Force plane in blackout, freezing conditions.
In a headline grabbing rescue, she was lifted by the Air National Guard in October, one of the earliest flights ever into the station when it became warm enough -- 58 degrees below zero -- to make the risky flight.
After multiple surgeries in the U.S., including a mastectomy, the cancer went into remission until 2005.
''More and more as I am here and see what life really is, I understand that it is not when or how you die but how and if you truly were ever alive,'' she wrote in an e-mail to her parents in June, 1999 from the South Pole.
I was just thinking about her the other day, wondering how she was doing.
Rest in peace, woman of courage.
I remember watching a tv movie (I think it was a movie, not a documentary) about her and was astounded. At least she had a time of remission and got back to her husband. What a fighter she was.
She sure was. I'm glad she got to enjoy a time of remission with him too.
She certainly had courage in abundance. | 2019-04-23T02:46:09Z | http://www.exisle.net/mb/index.php?/topic/59356-doctor-in-south-pole-rescue-dies-at-57/ |
Colors, the acclaimed 13th album from Beck, came out just over a year ago. And this hard-working American singer/songwriter/rapper/multi-instrumentalist has been pretty much on the road ever since, kicking off his 2018 tour with an Auckland City Limits (Auckland, New Zealand) performance in early March. This was soon followed by a U.S. leg, then a 12-date/eight-country northern European jaunt, and a summer/early fall 24-city (plus two Japan shows) North American run of theaters, festivals and amphitheaters — including Red Rocks and The Hollywood Bowl — that wrapped up Oct. 6 at Houston’s Heights Theater. Clearly this guy and his hardworking crew don’t get much of a chance to sleep, but we chatted with the tour’s FOH and monitor mixers to get a few insights on the audio production.
Speaking of crew, the sound provider is Eighth Day Sound, who supplied a large d&b audiotechnik J-Series rig with J8 large-format, dual-12, three-way (80° horizontal dispersion) line array boxes paired with J-SUB triple-18 cardioid subwoofers.
Returning to handle front of house mix duties is engineer Paul David Hager, who is known not only for his live sound abilities but his studio chops as well. Hager’s extensive resume also includes work with bands such as Miley Cyrus, Devo, The Goo Goo Dolls, Demi Lovato, American Hi-Fi and a long list of others.
Hager started out as a guitarist, but fell into engineering somewhat by accident. When he was about 20, he mentioned to a friend’s band that their sound was really bad, and they asked him to mix. “After the gig, everyone said it sounded great,” he recalls, although Hager doesn’t take too much credit for the sound, because he says the kick and snare sounds were coming off a Simmons electronic drum module.
Hager took the Beck FOH gig three years ago, after the departure of Sean “Sully” Sullivan, who left to work with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
The guitar sounds are fairly straightforward, with mics capturing the nuances of the guitar work. Heil PR 30s are used on Beck’s amps as well as those of Jake Sinclair and Cecilia Della Peruti. “On Jason Falkner’s guitar amps, I’m using a Shure KSM313/NE ribbon mic. He has a Vox AC-30 and a Supro — which are kind of harsh, but the ribbon took care of that,” notes Hager. Dwayne Moore’s bass sound came from a combination of a Heil PR30B on the cabinet and a DI output from the amp.
The tour has two monitor engineers — Pasi Hara doing mixes for Beck and any guest performers, and Manu Goodwin handling monitors for the band and the tech crew. Both are veterans of past Beck tours.
The two come from varied backgrounds. Now an L.A. resident, Hara originally came from Finland, where he worked with Helsinki-based goth rockers HIM, and later began mixing for System of a Down, SOAD frontman Serj Tankian, as well as Slash (since 2014) and stints with Tool, Fall Out Boy, Fergie and Kiss.
Hara is working on a DiGiCo SD-5, although “I have a few outboard items — Avalon 737 mic preamps for the main vocal (and spare) — both are inline before it hits the console. I also have a couple Eventide H3000 effects, two Eventide Helixes and I have a Waves server, which I use mostly for effects and some nicer reverbs. But most of the onboard dynamics and multi-bands I am quite happy with — you always have to be mindful of the added latency with any outside stuff, especially on the lead vocal mix,” he warns.
Goodwin, mixing on a SD-10, relies mainly on the DiGiCo’s onboard effects.
Hara is also responsible for RF coordination. “I’m using Shure’s Wireless Workbench 6 to coordinate all the RF and to monitor all the mics, IEM and guitar wireless. Everything is networked together so I can see them all at one location and we use an Axient 600 Spectrum Manager to scan and monitor the entire spectrum before deploying any new frequencies. | 2019-04-23T09:56:03Z | http://fohonline.com/articles/production-profile/beck-2018-colors-tour/ |
