Got To Get You Into My Life (audio only)
Off of "Revolver," this wasn't released as a single until 1976, when it became the Band's last top ten hit until the "Anthology" days. Paul, at that time, was at the apogee of his Wings fame and found himself once again competing with his former life. I read somewhere sometime that they "beefed up" the horns for the single release, and this sounds as if it might be the single version.

Cloverdale Comments - November 2016
"My favorite thought about Abraham Lincoln is he believed two things: loving one another and working together to this world better. — Mario Cuomo
We've been friends since 2003. Carol and her spouse, Roz, had been in town about two months when they went to an Oktoberfest where Reece, as a member of the Sonoma County Human Rights Commission, was tabling. Over the years, common ideas and perspectives quickly brought us together even as we each found ways to contribute to our community's growth and success via different paths. Both of us love Cloverdale and the people who live and work here. We also very much enjoy collaborating with each other as well as with others. We hope working together to makes Cloverdale, and by extension the County, 22 better.
Seven years ago Carol began writing "Cloverdale Comments". Along the way, she asked Reece to look it over and edit at will. She asked again the next month. And, the month after that. Soon it became a monthly routine. About a year ago, a formal collaboration was established. Now, you get two of us!
Writing this month's column has presented several complications tangled together at exactly the wrong moment. Carol's kitchen sprung a mega bucks water leak resulting in taps off until the plumbers can wade in. Between government duties and staying in a motel, her life is a jumble. Reece has been totally engrossed in the "Support Our Libraries" Measure Y campaign – putting up signs all around the county, tabling, arranging neighborhood walks, writing articles and support letters, and much more. Add a holiday deadline, plus potential interviewees' conflicting schedules and writing this month's column soon became a muddled quandary!
What could we write about that might interest you, Dear Reader? US, of course, and our collaboration!
The holiday season underscores the column as the publisher's and your special gift to us in allowing us to tell you about our Cloverdale neighbors and friends while, along the way, we're given the chance to get to know them better ourselves. In turn, we hope they and you will think of "Cloverdale Comments" as our gift. We hope getting to know our people, how our city works, what everyone can find here, and helping to link up Cloverdale and our County makes our world a little better. If it does, we're very thankful.
Two apparently very different people who actually share many commonalities, including our commitment to working for our community, we acknowledge our dissimilarities: Reece is endearingly quixotic, while Carol is amusingly pragmatic. (At least, we like to think so.)
Here's what we have learned about collaboration. It is both challenging and satisfying. We hash out potential topics. Sometimes we determine a series; other times we focus on a single topic. Sometimes we wax philosophical; at other times the subject is very concrete. The process can involve one to a half dozen interviews. We share any needed additional research. And, like most other creative brains, a short "gestation period" follows (otherwise known as getting together over tea with sugary snacks). Often, with our widely, varied experiences in life, one of us has touched the topic in some way, adding a personal feel and color to the general layout. An hour or two later, with the outline established, we come up for air (and another snack).
Sometimes, we just hash out our first draft together. At other times, we separate with Reece writing the first draft. This plays to our strengths, since Reece is a good foundation builder, while Carol adds sparkle. Soon, there's a second draft with one or both of us adding, changing and, more often than not, condensing it all (and having another snack).
We often come from entirely different perspectives to the same point of view or occasionally different viewpoints that must be harmonized into a column. While collaboration shapes the process, our love and respect of this process and our community are what drive us to our final column.
In the give and take of the collaborative process, friendship can be sorely tried so trust becomes the major key to avoiding disharmony. We have learned a lot through collaboration. Above all, that done right it builds friendship.
And friendship always makes the world better.

Seniors Nick Crusco and Tommy Bluj connected on an 8-yard TD pass early in the fourth quarter to break a 21-21 tie and the Susquehanna University Football team scored a 28-21 win over Juniata College in the regular season finale Saturday afternoon in Huntingdon.
The River Hawks (7-3 overall, 6-3 Centennial) clinched a spot as one of the teams to represent the Centennial Conference in the Centennial-MAC Bowl series that will be played Nov. 18. Susquehanna finishes in third place in the final Centennial standings. The opponent and location of the bowl game will be announced Sunday night after the selection of the teams for the NCAA Tournament have been made official.
Against Juniata (3-7, 2-7), Cameron Ott finished with 99 yards on 29 carries and Terrell Brown hauled in five passes for 102 yards. Crusco was 19-for-32 for 228 yards and three touchdowns. Cole Dixon led the defense with 11 tackles, a sack and two tackles for loss while Conner Thompson added 10 tackles with a half sack and two tackles for loss.
In the fourth quarter, the Susquehanna defense limited Juniata to two drives and both were three-and-out drives while the offense controlled the ball and consumed a majority of the clock.
Susquehanna scored early in the game on the first drive of the day as Ott had a pair of short runs followed by a four-yard pass completion for a first down to Mitch Carsley and the very next play was a 64-yard TD pass from Crusco to Brown and the River Hawks had a 7-0 lead two minutes into the game.
Juniata answered with a 10-play drive that ended with an unusual score. The Eagles rushed the ball to the three yard line before fumbling the ball after a hit by Tucker Garner. Juniata recovered the ball in the end zone to tie the game at 7-7.
On the ensuing drive, Crusco engineered a 13-play drive that he capped with a two-yard scoring run to regain the lead. Brown had the key play in the drive with a six-yard reception on a third-and-five situation to keep the drive alive. Crusco also completed passes to Carsley for 12 yards and Ott for 11 yards on the drive.
In the second quarter, Susquehanna extended the lead to 21-7 with another long drive as Crusco and the offense matched 56 yards in 14 plays eating nearly half of the time in the quarter. The drive included consecutive passes to Carsley (17 yards) and Bluj (9 yards) early in the series. Ott had a pair of runs for a total of 14 yards near the end of the drive and capped the scoring drive with a three-yard touchdown reception.
The third quarter was all Juniata as the Eagles took advantage of good field position on a pair of short punts to score twice and tie the score at 21-21 before the pass from Crusco to Bluj in the final quarter that ended up being the difference in the game.
With the win, the River Hawks retained possession of the Goal Post Trophy and the team won seven games in a season for the first time since 2009 when Susquehanna won the Liberty League title.

The goal of most web sites is to communicate with customers: to provide helpful information and to increase sales.
Legible typography, as a part of design, is a tool for enhancing the user experience.
Web sites, sadly, suffer from technological limitations in rendering type in a moveable feast.
Print typography does not translate to the web well, and this can lead to poor usability.
a) Web browsers do not come with hyphenation dictionaries, so words cannot automatically split over two lines when a line is too long, as is common in print media. This becomes a problem with full justification because browsers can squish words together, or increase the space between words; both decrease legibility.
While a paragraph might look nice with flush left and right margins, its content might also be compromised by poor legibility.
b) Unlike with print media, web sites do not display consistently between browsers and computers.
By adjusting the web site's width depending on window size/screen resolution, line length can vary.
Lines too long or too short reduce legibility, and this is true in print also.
c) A manually labour-intensive method to enhance legibility with full justification is to add soft hyphens () at the break points of all words that potentially can be at the end of a line.
Remember to account for all browsers across all computer platforms.
d) Centering headlines and subheads can reduce legibility by over-emphasizing their content, and by having the eye travel widely around the page.
Visual communication follows different rules, depending on the media. Reading on the web is a bit better than reading a fax, and nowhere as good as reading printed material.

Embryo cryopreservation is the most common way of preserving your ability to get pregnant in the future. Before freezing the embryos, you have a procedure done called in vitro fertilization (IVF). In IVF, you will be given hormones to stimulate the growth of your eggs. After that the eggs will be aspirated (removed by gentle suction). Embryos are then produced by joining the sperm and egg together in the laboratory. The embryos are then frozen. If you decide you want to have children after your cancer treatment is completed, one or two embryos can be placed in your uterus (womb) with or without the help of medications.
Not everyone can have this procedure. You'll have to take medications that make you produce more eggs than usual. In total, the process may take two to three weeks to complete. Unfortunately, if you need chemotherapy or radiation treatment for your cancer, you may not be able to wait that long. The medications that make your body produce more eggs may also make your body produce more hormones, such as estrogen. Estrogen can make some cancers worse.
Embryo cryopreservation offers the best chance of pregnancy. The odds of an embryo surviving the freezing and thawing process and implanting in your uterus are much higher than those noted with thawing and fertilizing an unfertilized egg or ovarian tissue. If you decide to use embryo cryopreservation, you will need to have a man's sperm to fertilize your egg before it is frozen. If you do not have a partner, donor sperm can be used. If neither of these sperm sources is possible or available to you, this procedure is probably not the best option for you.

The two cafes faced each other like wild west gunslingers: The Fuller Cup and Starbucks. Scarcely twenty paces from one another, the cafes occupied space on a side street just off the main square of Winchester—a quaint, affluent town less than ten miles from Boston. The tiny downtown section unspools in a series of rotaries lined with smart, brick buildings containing artisan, independent stores such as French Lessons, an upscale clothing and lingerie shop and something called The Shoe Hospital, a store cut from the twee cloth of a Wes Anderson movie. That Winchester has a dedicated cobbler or shoe repair place called The Shoe Hospital should tell you everything you need to know about Winchester. On the other side of the rotary, at the end of a block, there is a discrete CVS because this is America after all.
Killing time before a therapy appointment (since November I've developed a jangling fear of tyranny, odd I know), I decided to get an iced caffeinated-something from Starbucks, the java overlords that distract us from their mediocre coffee products by offering part-time employees dental and a 401K. I was a little surprised that a somewhat prissy town like Winchester would allow a Starbucks. This kind of corporate pestilence seemed like the very thing Winchester took pains to inoculate itself against, to maintain a posture about the kind of community it believes itself to be. Money consistently proves its deciding powers. There are probably weekly discussions about how to get a Starbucks in the Vatican City—tall, grande, venti, divinity.
I had passed the Starbucks enough times driving through town to know it was impossible to miss. The café squatted on a juicy slab of corner real estate with sight lines on three sides. No matter how you're coming down the street you can't escape the green sign with stark white lettering. Congratulations suits, that degree in corporate psychology definitely paid off. The Starbucks sign is as familiar and alluring as a Vegas slot machine. That day I was on foot. As I turned onto the narrow street, I was surprised to see the storefront with its cheery orange coffee cup stenciled onto the long, bay windows of The Fuller Cup café.
There was a brief moment of indecision. Starbucks succeeds on familiarity. Every café store looks basically the same—color palette, wood type, general layout. The Spotify playlists predictable (jazz, indie, Americana). The earnest attempt to spell your name correctly on the cup habitually thwarted. We like familiar. We like known entities. We like feeling that we don't have to try too hard for acceptance. We willingly proffer our arm to take the anesthesia that numbs us to difference, strangeness, to the effort of meaningful engagement. And for a second I felt myself yield to this impulse, to choose the experience that would actually be no experience at all, that would require very little of me and would give even less in return.
The door to The Fuller Cup is a screen door as if it belonged in one of those seaside places like Provincetown or Martha's Vineyard. The entire space is probably no bigger than one of Beyonce's walk-in closets. Art from local artists hang on the wall. The girls working behind the counter aren't more than sixteen, likely high school students "working at the Cup" for the summer, saving money for college or (more likely) a new iPhone. A group of moms cluster in the front corner, one with a stroller, another with a baby lashed to her chest. I hear them trade tips on sleep schedules and gymberee type programs. Everything under the pastry case looks fresh-baked, a few empty trays bearing the ghostly crumbs of croissants suggest that once goods are gone, they're gone and not dumped out of a box and thawed for the afternoon rush.
This is a neighborhood place. People gather here who know one another. I'd bet that many who drop in for their daily fill-up know the owner. The conversation drifting up towards the lofted ceiling is personal about lives and families and schools and happenings around town and the harried goodbyes of already-super-late-for-that-thing-catch-up-again-soon. There's real energy swirling around in this cramped spot. There's connection. And it doesn't feel effortful or arduous or anxious. It feels seductive in a way. It's an antidote for the way we revolve around each other choosing our safe, familiar, generic routes instead of veering off course where all the discovery actually happens.
The Fuller Cup is a neighborhood place; Starbucks is a place in the neighborhood. Both serve coffee, but only one serves something a little more satisfying.

Our research is focussed on the regulation of fat tissue development, function and energy homeostasis. In mammals, adipocytes play a vital role in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism. In general, white adipocytes store excess nutritional energy in the form triacylglycerols and provide fatty acids for energy when needed (e.g. exercise, fasting). On the other hand, brown adipocytes burn excess calories as heat by uncoupling fuel (fat and carbohydrate) oxidation from ATP production. In addition, several studies have documented the capacity for cells in white fat depots to acquire features of brown fat in response to various stimuli and these specialized cells are referred as beige or brite fat cells. However, the molecules or metabolites and signalling pathways that regulate brite and/or brown fat activity prior to or during adipogenesis remain largely unknown. Specifically, the major focus of our research group is to
- Identify and elucidate the lipid signalling pathways that control brown fat development and function
- Study the role of physiological cues such as age and obesity on adipose stem cell maintenance or its efficiency
In mice, increased brown/brite fat activity is associated with protection against obesity and associated metabolic diseases. Thus, manipulating the pathways that regulate brite and/or brown fat function could provide new therapeutic avenues to combat metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes.

The Society has partnered with the Isle of Man Post Office to produce a stunning limited edition cover to mark the 40th anniversary of the first ever commercial Concorde flight.
This special cover, which is limited to 500 copies, features high definition images of Concorde's first commercial flight taking off on 21st January 1976 and the very last touchdown on 23rd November 2003. As well as marking Concorde's historic flight, it also celebrates the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) 150th anniversary by featuring the Concorde stamp from the Post Office's forthcoming release of a collection of eight stamps, showcasing cutting-edge technology over the last 150 years and is postmarked for 21st January 2016.
One of the most iconic aircraft of all time, the Anglo-French supersonic airliner Concorde, which was retired from service in October 2003, created a milestone in commercial aviation history 40 years ago with the start of the world's first scheduled supersonic passenger flights on January 21st 1976. Concorde revolutionised air travel with the journey time from London to New York being reduced to three and a half hours as opposed to about eight hours for a subsonic flight.
The cover is signed by Captain David Rowland FRAeS FRIN who joined BOAC (now known as British Airways) in 1969, as co-pilot/navigator on VC 10 aircraft. Soon after Concorde entered service, he joined the fleet as a co-pilot in 1976. He subsequently left the fleet to obtain a command on BAC 1-11 aircraft, before returning to Concorde as a Captain.

The effort to re-unify and rebuild the Black Liberation Movement in this period must anchor itself clearly in the struggles, needs, and interests of the black working class. A key historic task of strategic importance for the BLM is the building of new trade unions in the South that are rank and file based and led and that emanate from a developing consciousness and organizational process within the working class and the revolutionary forces in the form of social movement unionism.
Social Movement Unionism is "a highly mobilized form of unionism which emerges in opposition to authoritarian regimes and repressive workplaces….[and] is embedded in a network of community and political alliances, and demonstrates a commitment both to internal democratic practices as well as to the broader democratic and socialist transformation of authoritarian societies…..[It is clearly and ultimately rooted in] the forging of popular alliances with the highly politicized community organizations and the national liberation movement, as its definitive feature."[120]
The emergence of the leadership of the Black working class in both the black liberation and the trade union movements can only be developed in the context of their day to day struggles. The revolutionary forces must recognize and support their important campaigns for justice and understand their struggles in the context of social movement unionism as it has emerged in the 21st century in the US South.
An organized and conscious Black working class within the trade union and Black Liberation Movement is a cornerstone of the national liberation struggle of the African American people.
On January 14, 2013, the Charlotte City Council voted by a margin of 6 to 5 to enact payroll dues deduction for the five public sector unions operating at various levels within the city. City unions had been fighting for payroll dues deduction since the 1950s. Payroll dues deduction is the process of taking union dues payments from a worker's regular pay and sending it directly to the union he/she belongs too. The city had always refused to grant this request and maintained this anti-union policy for the ensuing decades. In so doing, the City was consciously attempting to limit the consolidation, development, and strength of the unions by weakening their ability to amass their financial resources. A key issue to be aware of is that the right-wing American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) has been promoting the elimination of these basic kinds of union rights nation-wide in Republican controlled states in this period. In fact, Charlotte is the key base for North Carolina's just elected right-wing governor, Pat McCrory, who served 14 years as Charlotte's mayor.[121]
UE Local 150 in Charlotte played a key and central roll, along with key allies in the community, with other key Charlotte based public sector trade unions, and the revolutionary left in seizing the opportunity to break the back of this anti-union policy when the National Democratic Party chose Charlotte as the sight for the Democratic National Convention (DNC), which convened in September 2012.[122]
The Charlotte Chapter launched a visible and extended campaign to pressure the Obama Administration and the City of Charlotte to end the policy and enact payroll dues deduction, recognizing it's enactment as a form of recognition of the union itself. The issue of focusing on payroll dues deduction was debated within the chapter's membership and adopted as a strategy. Meetings were then held with various City Council members to educate them on the issue. Meetings were also held with the other key allies, requesting support and visible solidarity with the push to put pressure on the DNC and the Charlotte City Council. In August 2012, one month before the DNC would convene, the Charlotte City Workers Union launched a weekly picket in front of Charlotte City Hall and invited area unions, community groups, as well as activists from across the country who had converged in Charlotte to protest the DNC to join the weekly pickets and protests. A media strategy involved weekly press conferences and press interviews. Thousands and emails and phone calls were directed toward the Mayor, City Council, and the DNC.[123]Southern Workers Assembly Gathering on September 3, 2012 at Wedgewood Baptist Church, Charlotte, North Carolina
UE Local 150 and the Black Workers for Justice linked the struggle in Charlotte with the broader context of building the labor and trade union movement in the South. On Labor Day, September 3, 2012, the Southern Workers Assembly was convened in Charlotte, bringing unions and activists from across the South and across the country together to look at the conditions for labor in the South.[124] The Assembly outlined the challenges and the potential ways forward for building the labor movement in the South, within the context of the attacks on labor nationally.[125]

Our local blue birds have comfortably set up camp in the house we installed for them on our paddock fence. It'll be fun to watch their progress!

Such a beautiful photo! The colors in this are simply majestic, keep it up!
April 25, 2012 at 7:07 pm
Gee, I wonder where they got that nesting material? LOL! Beautiful shot, such pretty eggs.
April 25, 2012 at 7:26 pm
How great! that would give you plenty to photograph when they hatch 🙂 Looking forward to it !
April 25, 2012 at 7:27 pm
I will definitely be watching and taking more photos! We also have phoebes and barn swallows to follow as well!
April 26, 2012 at 9:09 am
what a beautiful nest! This is my nieces favorite color BTW, robin's egg blue. Can you take a pic of the house you built for them? I have always enjoyed seeing the robins come in for spring, will be nice when I can have my own yard to spiff up for the birds.
April 25, 2012 at 9:07 pm
I will get a pic next time I'm out, but it's just a store bought blue bird house probably from Southern States. Textured like wood but I think it's made out of PVC or something equally as timeless. We have another one by the riding ring but sparrows live in there this year. You snooze, you lose, blue birds.
April 25, 2012 at 11:03 pm
robins will use a box? that is strange, I have not heard of them taking over a box. The easiest way to help the blue birds out (which you should because they eat the bugs you don't like) is to offer 2 blue bird houses no further than 20 feet apart. This way they each get one, as no two sparrows or swallow pairs will live that close together. Worked really well at my parents.
April 26, 2012 at 9:31 am
Oh sorry, this is not a robin's nest, it's a blue bird nest.
This same house a couple years ago had a pair of tree swallows in it. Really beautiful birds, I loved them. But sadly the female was involved in a fatal pane glass window incident. 😦
April 26, 2012 at 9:35 am
Lovely 🙂
April 25, 2012 at 9:47 pm
California city girl that I am…I have never seen a bluebird…I don't think 🙂 And I had no idea their eggs were blue. I feel really cheated of this experience. Thank you for sharing, though. I would be in awe if this were in my proximity to view!! Debra
April 26, 2012 at 11:48 am
I had a pair of Abert's towhees lay four eggs in a nest in my fuchsia on the back patio. I spend a lot of time on my patio each day, usually reading and birdwatching with my cat on my lap. The towhees have abandoned their nest. I was so sad when I realized it.

(originally published on my LinkedIn page, May 6, 2016)
I've never been an overly political person. I've voted in every presidential election. I watch the occasional debate. I generally pay attention to the key issues candidates care about. But the 2016 election has me more fascinated than ever before, and not for the obvious reasons.
As a marketer and mom, I can't help but wonder what the candidates are doing to reach the youngest voters, the 18-20 year-old Gen Z's who are voting in their first presidential election this year. While my own kids aren't yet old enough to vote, 14 million other Gen Z'ers are, and so far about 3 million of them have registered. They are paying attention to the political scene and the candidates. But who's paying attention to them?
So far, it seems the undeniable front-runner in that race is Bernie Sanders. Regardless of one's personal political views, marketers can learn a lot from Sanders and his approach to the youngest American voters/consumers. To anyone who has studied how to engage with Gen Z, most of the following will sound familiar. To those who haven't, take a cue from Sanders' playbook.
First, be real. Gen Z values authenticity, and in their eyes, Sanders is as real as they come. He has a 50-year-history of saying exactly what he means, even when it's unpopular. Gen Z loves his unpolished style and sense of humor. They consider him down-to-earth and relatable, even though he's old enough to be their grandfather. Actually, his 'retro' appeal is part of his unexpected allure.
While Donald Trump shares many of these same traits, Gen Z is put off by him because they see him as a bully. Jonah Stillman, a 16-year-old high school junior and author, said, "we've grown up in a generation where we've been taught to love one another … so when we see someone as harsh and as rude as Donald Trump, it's hard to support him."
Sanders is also relevant. He truly, genuinely cares about the issues Gen Z cares about. More than 80 percent of Gen Z'ers are concerned about the rising cost of college tuition. They are distrustful of big corporations and government; only one in 10 trusts the government to do the right thing. They also lean left on social and economic issues, like marriage equality, racism, corporate and government accountability, education funding and affordable healthcare. Sound like someone you know?
Of course, it's also critical to be social media savvy and actively engaged in the channels Gen Z use every day, all day (hint, it's not Facebook). Sanders is not only communicating with his supporters but also leading grassroots fundraising in Gen Z's playground – digital and social media. His hashtags are wildly popular – like #feelthebern, #peopleforbernie and #Bernie2016. He was the first democrat to run a campaign on Snapchat. He has more than a million followers on Instagram. His emails are the epitome of crowdfunding; he encourages supporters to donate amounts that wouldn't even cover the cost of a Cotton Candy Frappucino from Starbucks (you didn't know about their secret menu? Gen Z sure does!).
Finally, Bernie Sanders is encouraging Gen Z to make a difference and be ambassadors for change – which speaks right to the heart of their core values. They have energy and passion and truly believe they can and will create a more caring, compassionate world. To reach Gen Z, brands must demonstrate that they care about the world as much as Gen Z does. It can't just be lip service; Gen Z can smell BS from a mile away. Sanders wins here because he doesn't do "spin."
It's clear this generation is actively involved and wants to be heard, not only during the election but also in their everyday lives. Brands that understand this, like Sanders clearly does, will be ahead of the game when marketers stop paying attention only to millennials and start paying attention to the next generation of powerful consumers.

There's no need to wear a corsage to Prom Night. And leaving your higher brain functions at home might be a good idea, too. In this remake of the 1980 slasher flick, Johnathon Schaech stars as a teacher whose obsession over a student (Brittany Snow) led him to kill her parents. Three years on, Schaech escapes from jail to put a knife-assisted kink into Snow and her pals' prom. Viewers' own evenings, meanwhile, will likely be ruined by unimaginative direction, inane dialogue, and Schaech's passing resemblance to Forrest Gump. D

Kumara Gandharva, the legendary vocalist in the Indian classical tradition once gave a very interesting justification of his inclusion of a 'varjya swara'- an adverse note in a particular Raga. He said that the 'swara' was coaxing me repeatedly to let it in. I could not help oblige. The new series of Santana's work would remind the viewers of that anecdote. A few elements that were never a part of her parlance earlier are surfacing in her recent work and like the 'vivadi swara' in Kumarji's rendering, these elements are enriching it further. Her somber, contemplative idiom still retains its usual pondering, pensive disposition but ushers in a lyrical, redolent note of color into it. The rustic siennas and grays are now replaced with yearning, pining mauves and magentas.
Santana keeps experimenting with the surface of her work and has adopted extremely dreary methods that necessitate intense physical involvement to achieve the desired results. She uses cotton fiber paper, mounted on board in place of canvas. To give it cotton like feel, she peels off the top layer of the paper. Earlier, she meticulously replicated the appearance of copper or rusted tin sheets in her work and to achieve that effect she used to work with her bare palms on this surface. Her fascination for the sheer physicality of the surface ensues into scratching, rubbing and caressing the surface of her 'painting' till it gets vulnerable and concedes to her volition. In her recent work she engraves the surface with minute patterns and motifs generated through the dotted lines using the motorised engraving tool. These small engraved patches that bear the tactility of embroidered fabric fit together like an angular jigsaw puzzle and appear like an aerial view of the patches of tilled fields or resemble with the quilts stitched out of rags by the village women.
The first painting of this series that she engraved, divulges an intricate play of patterns and textures in white but as said earlier, this is where a few small patches of mauve creep into her work, though very small, very conspicuous due to the sharp contrast with the rest of the surface. These mauves and purples spread all over the surface in her later work and are followed by many other elements and objects, mainly flowers and floral motifs which otherwise were never seen in her idiom before, noticeably transmuting her vocabulary.
Interestingly, her manner of building up the forms and application of colors divulge a marked analogy with musical expression. Like a musician, who opens the recitation with distinct notes and goes on overlapping those notes with the new ones to build up a composition - sonata or Raga; Santana too begins with distinct forms and colors but goes on masking them with hues of mauve and purple. Colors and forms, contrary to their nature get ephemeral in her work but they do leave behind their traces and memories. They are transient like the musical notes that surrender their individual subsistence to the totality of the rendition. The flowers cease to be flowers, the greens and blues relinquish their effulgence and they subscribe to the nostalgic, melancholic musings of the painter.

Architects: Bond Bryan Architects
Bond Bryan Associate Director: Matt Hutton
Project Manager: Turner & Townsend
Services/Structural Engineer: CPW/SKM
Contractor: Balfour Beaty
Construction Value: £25 million
Completion Date: March 2016
Gross Internal Floor Area: 9,500 Square Metres
The proposal was a new build of approximately 9,500 sqm for Sheffield Hallam University's Faculty of Development and Society. Sitting within the CIQ (Cultural Industries Quarter) in Sheffield and adjacent the Grade II* Listed Butcher Works, the development sought to respond to the historical significance of the site whilst creating a modern and contemporary facility for the University.
The design is very simple in that it used the trace of Brown Lane (palimipsest) as an urban design driver for the atrium heart space/orientation device. Two flexible teaching blocks were positioned either side at a high level, opening out to showcase the educational and social facilities at ground level. The building was topped off with a unique roofscape and roof garden to reflect the historical significance of the site and take advantage of Sheffield's topography.
The original client brief stated a requirement to link the existing Arundel building and the proposed Charles Street building education departments via a bridge link. As part of a public art proposal discussed with the council, BA approached local interior designer Corin Mellor of David Mellor Design, to collaborate on the bridge design. Historically the site was an old cutlery manufacturing location on which David Mellor previously had a workshop, so Corin and his team were excited to get involved. They created a stunning concept that reflects the new and old of industry.

Caley Jags Pioneer Scottish Premiership 'PAY WHAT YOU CAN' Match Entry
Caledonian Thistle are introducing a historic 'Pay What You Can' match offer for the next home game with St Johnstone on the evening of Tuesday 20th January where all fans (home and away) can pay what they can - and later in January we will be offering free entry to all children under 12 when accompanied by a paying adult at our local derby match versus Ross County.
We have aimed to be very innovative in trying to boost midwinter attendances and will now be the first SPFL Premiership club to offer a 'Pay What You Can' deal when for the match with St Johnstone at Tulloch Caledonian Stadium on Tuesday 20th January (7-45pm kick off).
Club chairman Kenny Cameron revealed: "These are difficult times for football supporters and we've been applying considerable thought as to how to help."
"We have tried various offers over the course of this season and will be reviewing the outcomes following the Ross County game at the end of January. To date, the most pleasing aspect of these offers and the free tickets we donate to local schools/clubs, are the numbers of youngsters turning out at our matches."
"This in turn adds to our retail income with the home strip being our best selling strip ever and very popular with the young fans. In relative terms our club is still in its infancy, having just recently passed our 20th season in existence. We do not have the supporter base of some of the older club's but will continue to work hard with the Highland community and beyond to turn this around."
"But we're being even more adventurous for the St Johnstone game with a 'Pay What You Can' admission strategy against the Scottish Cup holders. This has been tried in the lower divisions but never before in the top flight and it will be intriguing to see the response."
Mr Cameron added: "If we can attract fans through the turnstiles on the evening of the 20th, it will be a win-win for all. Those that come will not only be paying "What They Can" but will also be generating match day income by buying merchandise, a match magazine, a coffee, pie or bovril, and of course, they will add to the atmosphere which we all know means a lot to the management team and the lads."
"If they like the action on offer on the pitch - and John Hughes is fielding a highly attractive team this season playing excellent football - then perhaps this incentive can be the trigger to their returning to further matches."
"We often hear in the press that games in Scotland are over priced and if prices were slashed crowds would increase dramatically; well this is certainly an opportunity to dip our toes in the water and see if this is really the case. We feel it is certainly worth trying and if it successful we would certainly look at doing it again and then the carry over from that would be a full review of our pricing structures for next season."
The chairman paid tribute to Caley Jags' faithful core support this season and highlighted what a boost the attendance of more than 6600 against Aberdeen was to the club, thanks to an excellent home support and the strong away support. He added, "We witnessed a marked increase in the number of home fans that attended the Aberdeen game and had an excellent and vociferous away support on the 1st in Dingwall and if we can get similar numbers to turn out at the club on a regular basis what a difference this would make to the managers budget."
Caley Thistle's stringent financial strategy sees us continue to be without debt and without a bank overdraft. Additional match day income can help manager John Hughes' playing budget as he looks to tie down the existing squad, having already tied up Greg Tansey earlier this week, and bring in a new face or two in the transfer window.
The admission experiments will continue with all fans under 12 being admitted free if they are accompanied by a paying adult, for their January 31st return game with Ross County at Inverness. This offer will be open to away fans as well as home support. To take advantage of this offer, tickets must be purchased in advance no offers will be available in the last hour pre-match or at the turnstiles.
Please note all offers are subject to Club T&C's. In the event you are unsure how to redeem the above offers, please contact the club direct on 01463 222880 for further information.

How To Explore Times Square Like A Local
"What do you do in Times Square as a local?"
It's a question I get asked a lot, especially from guests on my NYC walking tours. The truth: locals typically avoid Times Square like the plague. Sure, I take my tour guests there for fun photos; but, it's not somewhere you'll find me in my spare time.
Until recently.
This month, Speedify asked me to use their VPN service while exploring NYC. And since I've never really simply explored Times Square like I have, say, the West Village and SoHo, I decided it was the perfect opportunity.
My findings? There actually are some pretty awesome things to do in Times Square, as well as near this tourist hub. And Speedify made a great companion for keeping me connected and secure.What do locals do in #TimesSquare? Here's 11 things - some may surprise you! #NYC Click To Tweet
GIVEAWAY ALERT: Make sure to scroll down to the bottom of this post, as I'm giving away *10* Speedify VPNs for free! It's quick to enter, and they make great holidays gifts! The giveaway ends December 8, 2017 at 11:59 PM EST!
Why Speedify?
So you know when you're wandering around trying to connect to free public WiFi but the service is shoddy? Or when your phone automatically connects you to weak public WiFi, making your connection super slow?
Speedify solves that by binding all available connections for the fastest possible speeds. Moreover, you can choose how much of your data you'd like Speedify to make use of:
And because it's a VPN, your data stays secure — even when using unsecure hot spots. Unlike other VPNs — where they vanish as soon as your WiFi signal does — Speedify bonds to your 3G network until it can automatically link to another WiFi source.Do you use a #VPN? This one works with public Wifi + your cellular data...perfect for travelers on the go! #travel Click To Tweet
My Mission
During my day exploring NYC, my mission was to find fun things to do in Times Square and its surrounding neighborhoods using my phone as my guide. Well, not just my phone; but also Speedify, which I'd pair with available LinkNYC hotspots, which are typically pretty wonky.
Note that if you have cable, you can also sign into one of the generally shoddy hotspots offered by your provider. When paired with the Speedify app, they'll become fast and secure.
Awesome Times Square Experiences
Getting set up with Speedify and LinkNYC was super easy: download the free app, set it up on my device and choose my package. You can try their limited free version or sign up for unlimited usage ($8.99/month or $49.99/year). Then, turn on Speedify with the touch of one button.
From there, I connected to a weak LinkNYC hotspot, which bonded with Speedify to become faster. Within the Speedify app, I was actually able to see it working. In fact, the app tells you how much of each connection it's using.
It also tells you how happy— or unhappy — it is with the available WiFi in a very funny way.
You'll also be able to choose a limit for your mobile carrier data so you never go over on your bill.
1. 3D Printing Come To Life
Truth be told, when I logged onto FourSquare while standing at 42nd and Broadway I wasn't expecting to find much right nearby; however, it suggested an intriguing attraction I'd never heard of before called Gulliver's Gate, an "exhibit."
While I was expecting a small exhibit on the history of theater, what I found was actually "the world's largest miniature world on the planet".
Multiple floors showcase detailed miniature scenes from around the world, connected by 1000 tiny trains, all made with 3D printers. You can even have yourself made into a 3D-printed figurine for $120. The highlight is the amazingly realistic NYC cityscape.
Entrance to get in is $36 — pricey, but it's such a unique museum. Even if you don't want to pay, the entrance features a few teaser scenes like Brooklyn's Coney Island, and the White House with former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama waving from the balcony.Cookies for $1 in #TimesSquare? Yes, they exist! Check out #2 on this list! #NYC Click To Tweet
2. Cookies Galore (Some For $1!)
Schmackary's is heaven for cookie lovers, going way beyond chocolate chip. Self-proclaimed "cookie monster" Zachary "Schmackary" Schmahl lets his imagination run completely wild when coming up with his cookie recipes. Today, his shop sells flavors like candied yam, maple bacon, funfetti and a pumpkin-laced "Pick of the Patch".
Additionally, there are "Schmackaroons," krispie treats, shakes, bars and brownies — all made in innovative flavors using fresh Hudson Valley milk.
You can also snag a deal: just $1 for the still-delicious day-old cookies.
3. The Rum House
When using speedy WiFi to search for a fun cocktail bar, I had no problem finding recommendations: Tanner Smith's, Dutch Freds, Lantern's Keep.
The problem: it was early afternoon, and most cocktail dens don't open until the evening.
Luckily, The Rum House — a cozy rum bar offering a boozy retreat from bustling Times Square — was.
Part of Hotel Edison, I found out this watering hole came in at #12 on Conde Nast Traveler's 2016 list of NYC's Best Bars. Inside, tucked away in an intimate space accented by wood and copper, I read the enticing menu.
Typically I can't say no to a "Moscow Mule" made with homemade ginger beer; however, this time I opted for the "Tortuga" showcasing El Dorado 8-Year Rum, citrus, fresh ginger and cinnamon for something bright yet warming (hey, it's getting cold in NYC!).
Another drink that caught my eye was the "Rum Old Fashioned", swapping in Brugal Anejo Rum for the typical bourbon.
Come in the evening, and you'll enjoy live jazz and piano music, too! Happy hour is 12-6pm and offers $5 Narragansett Lager, $6 wine, and $10 daiquiri and rum punch.
4. Latte Art At Its Finest
Frisson Espresso is a cozy coffee shop just outside the bustle of 7th and 8th avenues. Drinks feature gorgeous latte art, with a few paintings by Adrian Hashimi adding an artsy twist.
Tip: If you've never had a canele, make sure to try one here. It's a French custard pastry laced with rum and vanilla, almost like creme brulee with a flan texture.
Craving something healthy? Attached is Fresh From Hell, a smoothie and salad cafe with a name that plays on the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood (which Times Square connects with).
5. A Cultural "Melting" Stove Pot
I had no idea Times Square had hip cafeterias featuring top local New York purveyors. At City Kitchen, aromatic steam wafted over counters serving Dough Doughnuts, Luke's Lobster, Azuki, Kuro Obi and other New York faves.
Sit under exposed bulbs while looking out over 8th Avenue, or head into the spacious attached seating room.Did you know you can find some of #NYC's cutest pastries in #TimesSquare?! Check out #6 on the list! Click To Tweet
6. NYC's Cutest Pastries
Seriously, do you see my strawberry shortcake? It was damn tasty, too.
The alpaca-themed Bibble & Sip serves up quality coffees with creative pastries like matcha cream puffs, everything bagel croissants and chocolate chip cookie brownies, all made fresh daily.
Why alpacas? Simply because the founder thinks they're awesome!
7. Shop (For A Cause)
Almost all of my clothing is bought from thrift stores, typically Vintage Monk and Buffalo Exchange in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Near Times Square, I fell in love with Housing Works Thrift.
While I needed to sift a bit more to find my style, I couldn't help but adore their philosophy. Housing Works' mission is to "end the dual crises of homelessness and AIDS through relentless advocacy, the provision of lifesaving services, and entrepreneurial businesses that sustain [their] efforts." Profits from the thrift store help sustain their parent company nonprofit.
Bonus: they sell books and unique housewares, too! For any fellow-thrift shopper, this will quickly become one of your favorite things to do in Times Square.
8. Shop (For Affordable Art)
Sure, nearby Chelsea is home to over 300 — mainly high end — galleries; but my quest directed me to Fountain House Gallery, just one avenue from Times Square. Here, walls were covered in colorful modern works for less than $100 as part of their annual "Small Works: $100 & Under" program.
What's really awesome about this gallery is they're also a nonprofit dedicated to making mental health a priority. In fact, the art is created by artists living with mental illness, confronting stereotypes and stigma surrounding it.
Two blocks away sits Jadite Galleries, showcasing contemporary works since 1985.There are so many things to do in #TimesSquare beyond the tourist attractions! #7 and #11 are my favorites! #NYC Click To Tweet
9. Get Inspired By Unique Gifts
Delphinium Home may be just a six-minute walk from the heart of Times Square, but it feels like a country cottage with a creative keeper.
One window displayed pastel Post-It's showcasing Love Always Wins thoughts, while inside were quirky presents like a cat-shaped omelet mold, journals with prompt pages, funny cards and Golden Girls devotional candles.
10. Get Caffeinated On The Cheap
Here's one my fellow budget hunters will love. At Corvo Coffee, everything from the lattes to the muffins are $2.
I think the picture pretty much says it all.
11. Learn About Mental Health Through Street Art
Okay, so this was a bit of a walk; but, when Speedify helped me quickly quench my thirst for street art by pulling up info on a new mural project on 34th and 9th, I made the 15-minute trek.
Part of the Mural Arts Project — an initiative of the New York City Health Department and the Fund for Public Health — the installation seeks to de-stigmatize mental health issues. Interestingly, the above-mentioned Fountain House Gallery and artist Andrew Frank Baer are the ones who created these first Manhattan installations.
The message: "Some days I have to push myself to go outside and walk to the park. Say hello! We can embrace ourselves and open doors together."
According to Street Art NYC, the Fountain House Gallery hosted workshops where community members were able to sketch out the murals, allowing them to be a part of their neighborhood.This #streetart located just minutes from #TimesSquare works to de-stigmatize mental illness. So #inspiring! #nyc Click To Tweet
After my day exploring with Speedify, I head back home to the Upper East Side feeling satisfied. Not only because I had fun, but also because I found a tool that makes connecting to the internet so much faster, safer and more reliable. Whether at home or on the go, it's nice knowing I can turn weak WiFi into a speedy, secure connection.
Funny enough, shortly after I was doing a Facebook Live in my apartment, but my WiFi kept dropping me. Once I connected Speedify, I was able to go live for 45 minutes without a problem.

Troubled singer Amy Winehouse has hit out at rumours she is suffering from an eating disorder – putting her skeletal figure down to stress.
The star has endured a variety of health problems so far this year, including a trip to rehab to kick her drink and drug addictions and a bout of highly contagious skin condition impetigo.
And last week, the Back To Black hitmaker was hospitalised after collapsing at her London home. She was subsequently diagnosed with traces of deadly lung disease emphysema.
But it is her super-skinny frame that has sparked major fears for her health – and led to rumours she is suffering from anorexia.
However, Winehouse has dismissed the speculation surrounding her size, insisting she is eating normally and actually trying to put on weight.
She told Rolling Stone magazine: "I'm on a strict pizza diet. I'm on a strict put-weight-on diet. I love food. I'm just stressed out."

The AirAsia Group of low-cost airlines has appealed to the Thai government to convert Bangkok's old Don Muang Airport into a hub for budget carriers.
The Group's Chief Executive Officer Tony Fernandes says the lack of a low-cost carrier (LCC) terminal in Bangkok is hampering the growth of such airlines. "The high international passenger service charge of 700 baht (US$21.9) at Bangkok's [main] Suvarnabhumi International Airport should be reduced to make it more attractive for tourists to visit Thailand," Fernandes adds.
Passenger arrivals in Thailand have dropped 43 percent since the deadly political unrest began in Bangkok in March.
"This is the time for the Thai authorities to do something quick by turning Don Muang into a low-cost airport and bringing back the tourists, and at the same time doing something for LCCs," Fernandes says.
A spokesman for government-backed Airports of Thailand (AOT) says the agency has no funds or plans to convert Don Muang into a LCC Airport.
This is the second time Fernandes has appealed to the Thai government for a low-cost terminal or airport. Last year, he asked AOT to build a dedicated LCC terminal at Suvarnabhumi. This request was promptly shot down by the Ministry of Finance, the majority stake-holder in AOT, which is listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand.
Earlier, in 2005, the former government of Thaksin Shinawatra called off plans to build an LCC terminal at Suvarnabhumi, saying that it was not necessary and the government did not have the funding for it, as the cost of building the new airport had escalated.
In Malaysia, AirAsia's request to the government to build an LCC airport in Labu, in the state of Negri Sembilan, has also been turned down.
The AirAsia Group comprises Kuala Lumpur based AirAsia, long-haul carrier AirAsia X, Thai AirAsia and Indonesia AirAsia.

Commenting on the recommendation of the Airports Commission to build a third runway at Heathrow, Labour's London Assembly Transport Spokesperson Val Shawcross AM said:
"We will now take the time to examine Sir Howard's findings closely but it is clear that any decision on airport expansion, whilst controversial, has to be evidence based.
"Howard Davies and his team have clearly carried out an in-depth and detailed analysis of the options for airport expansion and it's now up to Government to issue a prompt response to his recommendations. What nobody wants to see is yet more years of paralysis and indecision.
"It is vital that any final decision recognises the importance of a comprehensive programme of environmental and surface transport improvements for Heathrow to help mitigate the environmental and noise impact of the airport with or without expansion."
