Ms COUZENS
Anam Cara House Geelong
Tuesday, 1 May 2018
Anam Cara House Geelong
Ms COUZENS (Geelong) (14:43:40) It was an honour to visit Anam Cara House in Geelong, a day hospice, to announce to guests, board members, ambassadors, staff and volunteers that the Andrews government will provide funding of just over $1 million to increase respite hours. This funding will increase the number of respite days from two to five.
It was an absolute pleasure to meet with the guests and chat to them about what the extra respite days will mean to them, their families and carers. They talked about how their family carers can now spend time shopping, going to Pilates or catching up with a friend for lunch while they the guests enjoy the activities and social time with other guests and staff at Anam Cara. I want to thank Diana Taylor and Kerry Dmytrenko and their committed team at Anam Cara, and a special thanks to the Minister for Health for her passion and commitment to end‑of‑life care services in Geelong. The Minister for Health's visits to Anam Cara have been warmly welcomed by all. Minister, this one is for Annie.

Geelong-based end-of-life care and hospice service provider Anam Cara House Geelong has received $1.1Million from the Andrews Labor Government to provide greater support for people diagnosed with a life limiting illness.

Anam Cara is a community-funded, fully accredited, non-denominational organisation supporting people with chronic and life-limiting illness, their carers and families.

Region's palliative care services get $1m boost
Olivia Shying, Geelong Advertiser
A $1.1 million dollar funding boost to Geelong's end-of-life care services will give residents who want to die at home better access to the services they need.
Health Minister Jill Hennessy on Wednesday morning announced Geelong's Anam Cara House as one of six Victorian services to receive a share in $5.5 million of funding through the government's End-of-life Ancillary Service Grant program.
The $1.1 million boost will support more terminally ill people to be cared for, and die, at home.
The Myers Street service will use the funding to boost assistance for healthcare aids and equipment to help patients and their families with day-to-day activities, practical in-home support, transport to shops and medical appointments, and respite for families.
These services are not-for-profit, non-government organisations that assist people, families and carers to manage the day-to-day activities associated with caring for someone with terminal illness at home.
Ms Hennessy said the services provide an invaluable addition to the direct care delivered by palliative care, health and other mainstream services.
We know that many people who are terminally ill want to die at home close to family and loved ones, Ms Hennessy said.
This funding will give people in Geelong the support they need to be cared for.
Anam Cara House chair Diana Taylor said staff were overwhelmed by the funding announcement.
As a not-for-profit whose unique form of care has a core focus on hospice care, this grant will enable Anam Cara Geelong to significantly expand its services in the region through community outreach and capacity building enabling people to stay at home for longer, Ms Taylor said.
Significantly, our day hospice program will now be expanded from two days per week to five days per week, including one day on a weekend.
This grant means that not only will more people be cared for by Anam Cara and supported in their homes for longer, but it will enable our organisation to sustainably plan for its long term future.
Victoria became the first state to pass assisted dying legislation last year, meaning patients will be able to apply for lethal medication.
The state government has pledged to inject $62 million in additional funding over the next five years for palliative care.
Other services to receive the funding include Ballarat's Shannon's Bridge, the Chinese Cancer and Chronic Illness Society of Victoria, Little Dreamers Australia, Peace of Mind Foundation and the Warrnambool and District Community Hospice.

Every day I am exposed and compelled to endure consistent embarrassment. These harrowing happenings occur in everyday places and are passed off as mere accidents by those in the position of power. I was asked the other day if I wanted the colouring in pages at a restaurant, I was ID'd for a MA 15+ movie, I was asked 'how old my older sister was' who is in fact 3 years younger than me. When my prescription was being filled at the pharmacy the chemist reminded my mother I had to be over 12 to take the medication. How difficult it is to explain to people that I am in fact in my first year of university, not my first year of high school I am 18 years old, a good half a decade older then people normally believe me to be.
I suffer what an American poet self diagnosed as, 'Ariana Grande Syndrome". Her name suggesting exactly what she is not. Exactly what all of us suffering from this vexing disorder are not. Grande.
I am an adult never taken seriously. I pay rent and taxes but can't reach the cereal when my housemates put it on the top shelf of our pantry. I'm hungry, and also never going to grow if I can't reach the cheerios. They say good things come in small packages but I wouldn't know because every time the post man comes to my apartment door he asks if I can, "Go get Mummy?" My family and I go to restaurants and the waiter hands us two children's menus, one for my eleven year old sister and one for me. And today a lady on the train used my head as an arm rest.
But being 159cm isn't always so bad. No one ever stops me in shopping centres trying to sell my things, no one expects a 12 year old to donate to a charity event. I can buy child tickets everywhere, for everything, on public transport, to theme parks, at the movies, sometimes if I put my hair in pigtails and wear something particularly childish then I can even get into 2B kids. I can sleep on any couch comfortably. I can fly economy and have more than enough leg room. And Ariana Grande Syndrome has produced some great people, Martin Luther King was 5"5, Prince was 5"2, Kendrick Lamar is 5"4, Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) is 5"2 and if the mother of dragons doesn't need to be tall, neither do I.
So be careful of who you look down on, short people have a lot of insight, twice the knowledge, half the height.

Nova Scotia's film actors will be getting all glammed up for their annual Christmas party tonight at Pipa Restaurant and Bar in Halifax.
For a lucky few, it's an extra special night, as they are nominated for outstanding performance awards. It's a bit early for awards season, with the Oscars months away, but ACTRA (the Alliance of Canadian Television and Radio Artists) is throwing down the red carpet regardless and celebrating Maritime artists.
A panel of industry jurors screened submissions and selected four nominees in each category.
"The usual number of nominees is three," said Geneviève Steele, ACTRA awards committee chairwoman, "but there were so many worthy submissions, and the race so tight, we went with four."
Outstanding female performance nominees are Deborah Allen for Stephen King's Bag of Bones, Martha Irving for Roaming, Andrea Lee Norwood for the short film Game, and Vanessa Walton-Bone for the short film Room Service.
The guys up for outstanding performance are Jeremy Akerman for Jesse Stone: Benefit of the Doubt, Rhys Bevan-John for Roaming, Gary Levert for The Disappeared, and Josh MacDonald for Roaming.
The hardware will be handed out tonight as the holiday season bash goes into overdrive.
Last week, there was so much love and romance around the Spatz Theatre at Citadel High School as Jill Barber returned to Halifax as part of an all-too-short Nova Scotia tour.
Barber often talks of how she came of age as a musician in Halifax and walked out of the CBC building years ago with an offer to make her first CD by recently retired producer Glenn Meisner. The Halifax crowd was eager to embrace her once again and was not disappointed by the night of sultry song.
Barber was joined by her equally talented older brother, Matthew, who opened the show.
Jill has just recorded a CD entirely in French of covers from the '40s to '60s called Chansons. It drops (that's what the kids are saying these days) on Jan. 29, but the rapt crowd was treated to a couple of songs. Barber's voice is so suited to the French language I may have to buy a phrase book. I'll definitely be buying the CD. Along with the rest of the audience, I'll also be awaiting her next sojourn to Nova Scotia.
I spent two days last week at the World Trade and Convention Centre getting into the Christmas season spirit at the annual Festival Of Trees fundraiser for the Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia, presented by Compass Group.
The foundation is committed to achieving a legacy of transformation in the lives of those living with mental illness. This classy annual bash consists of a luncheon and an exclusive gala dinner over two days, and it was attended by hundreds of Nova Scotia's finest.
CTV hosts Heidi Petracek, Cyril Lunney and Paul Hollingsworth did a fine job MC-ing the sociable crowd. On the gala night, Steve Dooks and his band played longer than anyone expected as the party refused to die until early Sunday morning.
I also spent a night in a whorehouse in Dartmouth last week. Don't panic. It's not what it seems. The whorehouse in question was courtesy of the Dartmouth Community players as they presented the slightly dated and plot-free Best Little Whorehouse In Texas.
The cast were a fun bunch, jumping into their roles (and out of their clothes) for a rowdy crowd who lapped up every risque joke, swear word and song. Congrats to the Dartmouth Players on a fun night at the theatre.

NEW WATERFORD, NOVA SCOTIA--(Marketwired - March 22, 2017) - As technology continues to push the boundaries of modern health care, a new breakthrough has been made in wound care. During the Opening Ceremonies of the 8th Annual Abu Dhabi Wound Care Conference, Ms. Gulnaz Tariq from the Sheikh Khalifa Medical Centre announced a new Global Outcomes Collaborative. Powering this Global Outcomes Collaborative is Health Outcomes Worldwide's (HOW) point-of-care software application, how2trak® Wound Care.

Anticipation is growing as this Global Outcomes Collaborative expands, breaking down barriers and moving wound care forward as it does!

Posted: Fri May 03, 2013 2:50 am
Anomalistic Records & Lamat Records have joined forces to bring you "The Deeper Layers"
from SooSpicey & Dirty Phreak. This collection of 5 mind-bending tracks is packed full of
insane rythms, deranged arrangements, absurd melodies, and powerfull driving basslines.
As the journey continues, you will fall deeper and deeper into the psyche....
The deeper layers of the psyche lose their individual uniqueness as they retreat further
and further into darkness... they become increasingly collective until they are universalized
and extinguished in the body's materiality... Hence at bottom the psyche is simply world.

McIntosh to rejoin Sunshine Girls in March for Netball World Cup preparations
Jill McIntosh, Netball Jamaica's (NJ) technical director, is set to arrive in the island on March 31 to continue her work with the Sunshine Girls, who are currently preparing for the World Cup.
This year's World Cup tournament will be held in Sydney, Australia, in August.
"She (McIntosh) will be sitting on the bench as she did in the Commonwealth Games," Marva Bernard, president of Netball Jamaica, told The Gleaner in an interview yesterday.
"We are working always to improve ourselves, and we are expecting a better result than we got at the Commonwealth Games," she said.
"Everything that we do now is to give the Girls the competitive edge. Everything we do is for them to be physically and mentally prepared for the games," Bernard advised.
The NJ boss added that McIntosh has been in constant dialogue with members of the Sunshine Girls' coaching staff and players, as they continue their preparations for the World Cup.
"A lot of the arrangements that have been made for our stay in Australia have been facilitated by her," Bernard said.
"She has been in touch with the coaches and the players, and they are all looking forward to her returning at the end of the March."
The NJ president noted that winning this year's World Cup is going to be very difficult, but the Sunshine Girls plan to give of their best.
"It is going to be tough because we are going to be facing Australia in Australia, but our girls are being mentally and physically prepared, and we are getting support from Jamaica," Bernard said.
The Sunshine Girls finished fourth in the last Netball World Cup, which was held in Singapore in 2011.

Get your certification recognized
Non-Alberta workers wanting to work in Alberta must get their provincial/territorial certification recognized by a regulatory authority before they can work in their occupation.
To work in a compulsory trade occupation in Alberta, you must hold a valid recognized trade credential from another province or territory or be certified in Alberta through Apprenticeship and Industry Training.
Labour mobility opportunities apply to:
- workers in regulated occupations certified by another province or territory in Canada and seeking to work in Alberta
- Alberta certified workers seeking to work in a regulated occupation in another province or territory in Canada
How to apply
Workers in regulated occupations must follow these steps to get their certification recognized.
Step 1. Determine if your occupation is regulated
Alberta workers wanting to work elsewhere
To find out if your occupation is regulated in your destination jurisdiction, contact your regulatory body.
If you are having difficulty finding the contact information for the appropriate regulatory body, contact the Labour Mobility Coordinator of the province/territory where you're moving to.
Non-Alberta workers wanting to work in Alberta
To find out if your occupation is regulated in Alberta, see the list of regulated occupations and trades in Alberta.
Step 2. Determine if an exception to labour mobility exists for your occupation
For some occupations, specific job duties can vary substantially between Canadian jurisdictions. A province or territory can apply a labour mobility exception for an occupation. This allows a regulatory authority to impose additional requirements on workers.
See Exceptions to Labour Mobility to find out if an exception exists for your occupation in your destination jurisdiction.
Step 3. Verify that you're in good standing
Contact your home regulatory body to ensure you're an active member in good standing.
Step 4. Submit your application
To send in your application:
- contact your regulatory authority to get an application form
- gather supporting documents
- fill in and submit your completed application (with fee) to the appropriate regulatory body in the jurisdiction where you're seeking certification
Note: The application process should not include reassessment of your qualifications or additional material testing or training.
Allowable application requirements
Under Article 705.3 of the CFTA regulatory authorities may request that you:
- pay an application or processing fee
- obtain insurance/malpractice coverage
- post a bond
- undergo a criminal record check
- provide evidence of good character
- submit proof of good standing
- write a short examination regarding jurisdictional legislation
- demonstrate language proficiency in English or French if you have not done so already
Step 5. After you apply
Processing time
The application and registration processing time varies from one occupation to another, and from one regulatory authority to another. To find out how long it may take to process your application, contact the regulatory body for your occupation in the province or territory where you wish to relocate.
If you have concerns
If you believe your certification from Alberta is not being properly recognized in another Canadian jurisdiction, or your certification from elsewhere in Canada is not being properly recognized in Alberta, contact the Alberta Labour Mobility Unit.

zigurdo-sama is here?!
Tailityu (can't even spill it right) is a rather odd addition, but she seems cute. Deidre and Sigurd's voice match their appearances perfectly (the former looking and sounding like an older Julia, Grant George nails the nobleness of Sigurd's demeanor)
And Ayra is also here.
We might get an Arvis GHB as well.
Also lol at Sigurd having Miracle.
But Deirdre can't use Naga.
Praise the heavens for another blarblade user
and a tyrfing user that isn't trash pancakes
Well, I checked the Hero Calatogue, and it didn't have all the heroes that I've seen, so that was my short term goal, besides the Ninian army, and trying to get all the rest of the orbs (around 10 in hard, around 30 in lunatic, 7 on the sister's battle, like 15 in quests, so not a low ammount).
Back to the catalogue. I'm missing Valter and Jacob. Valter I'd guess if I grinded arena I'll find him soon enough, as he's rather high rated in the wiki, even with Brave Lyn existing, but as I still haven't dared to do "inheritance stuff" I'm just terrible in the experts arena, so I haven't seem him yet.
Jacob on the other hand, the reroll button (a godsend) on the tower and just targeting the knife users has been unsuccessful, as I've only seen Felicia, Saizo, Jaffar, and the queen of knifes, Kagero herself at a double rate than the rest. The wiki claims that he isn't in any map, and I'm inclined to believe as the fates maps focused on the siblings and their retainers only.
Oh, and the catalogue I'm talking "seen", getting all "Captured" is impossible unless the seasonal heroes keep returning, and we won't even know until spring. And then there's all "40 5* full confession". Nah, my completionism stops at "seen".
So that's how you finally spell Tiltyu/Taiato's name in English.
it's a real thing people
celtic names don't work in katakana
The guy who did the current fan translation of Genealogy thought the Awakening DLC was a gift from god for finally making sense of the Jugdral names.
ホリン -> Horin -> Holyn -> Chulainn.
Pronounced "Cullen".
I legit had no idea he was named after Cu Chulainn until right now.
Also "Lenster" is probably meant to be "Leinster" but there's no changing that because it appears in English on the map.
I learned the trickiness of Celtic when I had a friend in college named Siobhan.
Yes! Ninian won!
And i got the feathers back, that I used to promote Henry and Cain to feed to Hector!
Goddamnit Erk. I now have hard evidence that he's a trash unit.
Despite giving him the Afa's Drops, he's behind in every single stat at Endgame except for one (Defense +8, seriously, what?). Though I suppose in his defense, all but three of my units this playthrough have underperformed. So yeah.
If you get dunked on in the dream, you get dunked on in real life

CHATSWORTH, Calif. — Evolved Novelties has announced its initiatives in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Love Candy by Kendra is introducing The Prevail personal massager, Evolved is hosting an auction on E-bay for breast cancer awareness, the classic Faith vibe is out again in full force, and select retailers will be offering store-wide promotions on Evolved Novelties products, the company says.
The Prevail personal massager, designed by Kendra Wilkinson in collaboration with Evolved Novelties and coming out under the Love Candy brand, is a slim toy that comes in black or white, with a pink ribbon design signifying the buyer's commitment to breast cancer research. Each purchase automatically donates funds to the Save the Ta-tas foundation, which directly funds the fight for the cure. This multi-function, multi-speed vibe is packaged in a satin drawstring bag that fits inside a faux leather case for discreet storage or travel.
"The Prevail is a great slim toy for any woman," says Marcus West, marketing director at Evolved Novelties. "And just knowing part of the purchase funds research makes you feel twice as good about buying it! It's the perfect product for Kendra's debut into novelties, because not only is it a great starter toy, but it also gives back to an important women's cause through Save the Ta-tas, who are committed to growing more each year."
The primary focus of Save the Ta-tas is to support groundbreaking projects of independent cancer researchers. In mid-2012 the organization announced funding for its fifth independent cancer researcher for a two year grant cycle. With the support of customers, retailers, philanthropic partners, licensees and independent community fundraisers, Save the Ta-tas continues to provide funding for additional researchers.
Evolved Novelties is hosting an auction on E-bay, offering up a signed copy of Kendra Wilkinson's bestselling book "Being Kendra," a romance-enhancing Love Candy Collection kit signed by Kendra, and a Swarovski crystal-encrusted vibe. To access the auction, visit EvolvedWorld.com and click on the E-bay auction to enter.
Evolved's Faith vibe is also available for purchase with proceeds benefitting the foundation. Faith comes in black and white with a pink ribbon design and has been on the market for two years.
"Women who have undergone cancer treatment often feel emotionally and physically depleted," says Lucy Vonne D'Olimpio, sales executive and resident "Toy Whisperer" at Evolved Novelties. "Doctors will sometimes recommend cuddling and touching exercises to bring back sensual feelings, to help begin healing. Our toys really help with that, bringing a focus and some fun into the exploration process."
There are three Evolved products that continually donate to the cause, but for the month of October, select retailers will also be offering donations to Save the Ta-tas for every Evolved Novelties purchase they make.
"The Prevail and Faith, as well as the 1-oz. size cleaner donate to Save the Ta-tas all year round," Evolved Novelties President Greg Alves said. "But for October specifically we'll have select retailers donating proceeds from every Evolved Novelties toy they sell. It's our way of showing that we are committed to women's health and well-being."
Retailers will be advertising the Evolved Novelties Breast Cancer Research campaign with signage and displays, also letting consumers know about Save The Ta-tas.

By Byron Kaye
SYDNEY (Reuters) - The Australian state of New South Wales is expected to re-elect its conservative government on Saturday, endorsing the country's largest ever privatization, the partial sale of a state-owned electricity network worth around A$17 billion ($13 billion).
Electricity privatization has been a divisive issue in the country's most populous state for two decades, but opinion polls suggest the state premier Mike Baird has won over voters with his promise to use the proceeds to fund road and rail projects to ease congestion in traffic-choked Sydney.
With a population of more than 7 million, New South Wales (NSW) accounts for nearly a third of Australia's national economy with gross domestic product expected to pass A$500 billion in the 2014/15 financial year.
Some of the world's biggest infrastructure investors including State Grid Corp of China [STGRD.UL] and Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-Shing's Cheung Kong Infrastructure Holdings Ltd have lined up to bid for the NSW power asset, as have several of Australia's top investment funds, according to local media.
An election victory would not just signify a remarkable turnaround for a state government which saw its leader quit over a corruption inquiry in 2014, which lead to Baird's appointment, but revitalize the national government's plan to sell A$130 billion of state-owned infrastructure nationwide.
Two months ago, that national plan took a body blow when the neighboring Queensland state government, which had a stranglehold on parliament with 78 out of 89 seats, was thrown out of office by voters, because it wanted to sell A$30 billion of port and power assets to pay debt.
Luckily for Baird and his privatization plan, NSW voters seem determined to punish the previous center-left Labor government after years of dysfunction, said Peter Chen, a senior lecturer in politics at University of Sydney.
"The public don't understand privatization, they don't like it, they don't think it's a good idea," said Chen, but added voters dislike the opposition Labor party more than the possibility of a state power asset sale.
A poll published on Friday in the state's biggest tabloid, News Corp's The Daily Telegraph, said Baird was expected to get 55 percent of the vote, while a poll in Fairfax Media Ltd's rival Sydney Morning Herald four days ago showed Baird will get 54 percent of the vote.
However, a re-elected Baird may still struggle to gain approval for the asset sale if he does not win outright control of the state's far more complicated upper house, which typically has a large number of minor parties, Chen added.
The sale would also need clearance from the country's Foreign Investment Review Board.
The prospect of a foreign-owned electricity network is not new to Australia. CKI owns 51 percent of South Australia state's electricity network with the rest owned by locally-listed Spark Infrastructure Group. CKI is also one of five companies which owns Victoria state's electricity network.

"Words such as audiences, experiences and differences naturally also smack of market research and public relations management. Which has indeed been the other side of the coin, the other major shift in the public roles of the institutions, and in the mediation between artist, artistic production and reception. For a cultural industry, as well as for the currently prevalent neo-liberal governmentality, replacing publics with markets, communities with segments, and potentialities with products, are the new points of orientation, i mplemented by degree from funding and government bodies onto art institutions, as indeed any public institution."

David Robbins speaking at the Center for Advanced Visual Studies on "high entertainment." A practice for the future that combines the critical capacity of fine art with the pleasures and reach of show business, "high entertainment" could be what you are already making. Robbins's objects, images, and writing reflect on spectacle and the position of the artist in the visual system, and suggest possibilities for a new relationship between art and the entertainment industry.

Bad at Sports talks with David Robbins.
"There are some people who are really properly configured for a place like the art context and they ought to be making art and they ought to be thinking of themselves in those terms. But lots and lots of people aren't and they go to the art context sort of by default, there's no other place for them to go so they interpret the art context as the most wide open or accepting of all sorts of idiosyncratic kinds of production. In the final analysis the art context wants art and the mind is capable of producing lots of things that are not quite art or near art or on the other side of art or next door to art. And those kinds of things can be hugely valuable and ought not to be made into art unnecessarily, they'll be harmed by being interpreted as art. So you kind of have to insist on the mind being able to produce other categories of production but its your job not only to produce those things but maybe construct the contexts for their interpretation as things that are not quite art or other than art or other kind of imagination forms. I'm very uncomfortable with the idea that we've already discovered all the categories of production that the human mind can come up."

James Elkins in conversation with Elpida Karaba. This is a brief interview, originally published in Boot Print 2 no. 2 (December 2008 [2009]: 11. (Special issue on art academies.)
"It seems that for some free studio-based systems, the so called free activities, are implicitly a subjection to the star system and the art market. They seem to consider particular programs of artistic research as a kind of mediating force, a thinking-doing space for the artist and artistic research within academia, as a possibility and opportunity to suspend the trends and demands of the curators and star seekers. Free studio-based systems in these terms are considered to be individualistic and neo-liberal thinking systems. I wonder, reversing the argument, couldn't that be the case for the educational system of artistic research, which can be a different kind of star system itself, being subjected to a credit system and to an intense pursuit of five star institutions?"

"When Dewey worried about the practice of progressive education in the hands of zealots, he vented his concerns in ways aimed at constructively reframing classroom methods. He pointed out the differences between freedom to learn and anarchy in the schools, insisting that students cannot mature toward life in society when, "in some progressive schools the fear of adult imposition has become a veritable phobia," and where educators demonstrated "enthusiasm much more than understanding" of progressive concepts."

When I was a kid, I was extremely shy. I remember that the simple sound of the ringing phone was enough to make me run in another room: I was terrified by the idea of speaking to someone. Similarly, buying some candies at the grocery was a great challenge, since it involved talking to the shopkeeper. Of course, this became even more of a problem when I started to go to school, since avoiding everyone else was not an option anymore.
I am not sure where this fear of others came from. Retrospectively, I suppose that I was seriously lacking in the self-confidence department. For some reason, I wasn't very fond of myself: I was convinced that my body was awkward, that my movements were unnatural, that my thoughts were unusual. As a result, I spent years being jealous of the popular kids, secretly looking at them with envy, wondering what I could do to become like them. Slowly, I understood that I first had to believe more in my own potential.
However, while some amount of self-confidence seems suitable, when does it become narcissism? What is the point to constantly feel superior, to constantly love yourself, without any objectivity? It is probably a great way to never improve nor evolve. If one turns the TV on, or reads some news, it is easy to spot dozen of self-proclaimed celebrities, who keep staring at their own belly, certain that they are so interesting for the rest of the world. Even when looking around you, I am sure you can think of someone acting a bit like that, living only for recognition. It is a bit sad really, but I suppose it is directly resulting of how our capitalistic society works. Individual performance is often praised. I hope this trap won't get Humanity stuck in a vicious circle.
Finally, I would like to thank my stepmother for her help: we were chatting about this topic and how to depict it, when she told me about multiple mirrors and infinite reflections. This greatly helped me come up with this concept.

Finally! The Prince of Taiwan has returned to Asian-America.com
I want to say thanks to rayhom for giving me a chance to vent my fury and anger at the world – a world that is overpopulated with corporate crime, greedy CEOs, stupid politicians, greasy movie stars, skanky starlets, cheap Chinese dry cleaners that ruin a brother's Burberry shirt, and of course, FCs that run wild and cause fire hazards at the clubs.
Recently, rayhom lent me a movie called "Sukiyaki Django Western".
This film is directed by legendary Japanese shock director Takashi Miike. He did works of gory art like Ichi the Killer, with scenes of extreme torture and perversion. Nothing is taboo with this guy, from exploding eyeballs, tongue slicing, and walking penises.
Here though, he shows his softer side, a deference to the iconic cowboy movies of yesteryear, like Shane and the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Miike, does infuse the movie with a heavy does of Japanese of culture, from the Samurai-like armor/uniforms the cowboys wear to the usage of katanas. The story is something like any other western – mysterious stranger with guns quicker on the draw than a FC at the Bellagio buffet saunters into town held captive by two bloody rival gangs. He cleans up town, gets the girl, and kills the bad guys in the end. It's nothing you haven't seen before, but give it a shot if only to see some cool cowboy gun vs. katana fights, bullets being sliced in half, and a cameo appearance by Quentin Tarantino.
Two stars outta 4
JChen is "just another Taiwanese brother trying to get his piece of the pie".

||New York| Alphonse Persico
Birth: February 8, 1954 - Brooklyn
Death: /
Alphonse "Allie" Persico was the acting boss of the Colombo family from 1993 until 2000. He is the son of longtime Colombo boss Carmine Persico.
Enjoying previleges
Alphonse was born in 1954 in Brooklyn and like many young Italians at the time was confronted with the Mafia at a close range. His father Carmine and uncles Alphonse and Theodore were all members of the Colombo family. Although being a good student Little Allie decided to drop college and started working for his father. Through his father he earned respect and could enjoy the extra perks of being part of the higher levels of the Colombo family. Also with the help of his father, who became the family boss during the 1970's, he became a capo while only being in his mid-twenties.
In 1983 Alphonse was arrested for heroin trafficking but was acquitted. In 1986 he was convicted again during a large RICO trial in which also his father was charged. In addition his father was also trialed in the commission case and in all recieved a life sentencing of 136 years. Alphonse was "only" sentenced to 12 years. By this his father whas placed behind bars perminantly, but still communicated with his son, amongst others, to keep his influence inside the organization.
Persico - Orena war
During the absence of the Persico's their rule within the family was being challenged by Victor Orena. Orena had been named acting boss by Carmine Persico, but decided the family would be better off with a boss who wasn't jailed, meaning himself. Persico however still had strong backings inside the family and through men such as Greg Scarpa, Carmine Sessa and others they eventually won the battle. However, about 12 men were killed in the resulting violence. Alphonse Persico was soon after charged with authorizing 7 murders during the Persico-Orena war and with supplying his men with $200.000 to use for guns and safe houses. He was acquitted of those charges in 1994.
Alphonse was released in 1993 and by that time became the acting boss of the family. He was living a life of luxury and oftenly stayed in Florida and Miami. In 1999 the coast guard in Florida stopped him while driving his 50-foot yacht. On the boat they found 2 loaded weapons. Because he was forbidden to carry weapons after his 1986 RICO charge, he was sentenced to 15 months in jail. The day of his release was set for January 2001, but before he got out he was indicted again for a loansharking conspiracy which had occured between 1993 and 1999.
Term as acting boss
As acting boss Alphonse appointed William Cutolo as his nr. 2 man, a surprising move because Cutolo was a former loyalist of Victor Orena. It is possible that Persico chose Cutolo to keep the peace inside the family and to avoid further frictions. However, In May 1999 Cutolo went missing after going to a meeting with Allie Persico. In 2004 Persico and John DeRoss were eventually arrested for the murder of William Cutolo. Then, in 2007 Bonanno turncoat Salvatore Vitale testified how Persico had told him he murdered Cutolo. One year later another turncoat named Joseph Competiello led the FBI to a burial ground where they finally found Cutolo's remains. In February 2009, like his father, Alphonse Persico was sentenced to life for murder.

Born from a growing market of old electronics and little accommodation for E-Waste in the Calgary market, Technotrash began in 2004 as a numbered company becoming fully incorporated in 2006. Technotrash is an Alberta Government approved Electronics Recycling Program.
When Alberta went through the economic slowdown in 2009 Technotrash experienced a major drop in material recycling. As the economy began to slow again in 2014 Technotrash decided they needed to cut operating costs, the biggest being their rent in Calgary. They began exploring options outside of, but still close to, Calgary. This search lead them to quickly see that surrounding areas had been impacted by the rising cost of rent as well. Technotrash decided if they were to relocate any further they needed a location to serve all of Southern Alberta.
Taber was chosen because of its location at the crossing of Highway 3 and 36, nearly in the middle of Lethbridge and Medicine Hat. With a young population to serve as a workforce, and all the available amenities Taber was the ideal choice. Being located in central southern Alberta, Technotrash is able to serve close to 300,000 people within 1 hour's drive of Taber. They have maintained their existing clients in Calgary while expanding their coverage area by 25%. Technotrash opened for business in Taber in 2016.

Hello folks!
Spring amazes me each year--no matter how much you're outdoors, and how closely you watch each small change when it happens, suddenly it will dawn on you that Spring has crept up on you again! This Spring is definitely cool, and wet, which has set us behind schedule with working the ground, and even set us back from our seeding and transplanting schedules. What seeds and plants we've put out, have been slow, almost reluctant to come up, and we are in the midst of anxious moments wondering if things will work as they should--this time of year is always like that, but things always seem to work fine--even if it's a week or three late!
Thanks go to all of those who have helped us posting our flyers around East, TN--we have really been getting a lot of interest from folks, and we appreciate your effort! If you would like several of our flyers, let us know and we'll mail you enough to keep you busy! If each of you gave out one flyer, we'd have....well, lots more out there!
For a complete update, go check out our March/April picture folder we just uploaded to our facebook page!
I hope you all enjoy this newsletter, and we here at the farm wish you all a warm, dry, and productive Spring!
Adam Colvin
March/April at Colvin Family Farm:
We're excited about how well our strawberries are looking! Most all of one variety already have fruit and blossoms all over them!
Planting onions--we've put out more than 50,000 plants already! Our goal is to be able to supply all of our market locations with as many naturally raised onions & potatoes as the market can use all of the way through season (normally these two crops are hard to find on a regular basis) and have them at a price that most normal families can afford.
Dad grading the site for our new 20x60 greenhouse.
Dad's kept busy working on our new greenhouse--this picture shows the frame up, and the roll-up curtains on. The curtains are made of material that is basically a clear tarp--it lasts for years, whereas if we used normal greenhouse plastic for the curtains (as we've done in the past) it lasts for week(s)!
This morning we put the plastic on--it's always interesting pulling $500 worth of plastic over a greenhouse, and hoping that it won't blow away while you staple it on!
As you can see Dad framed in a large door on the other end. If during the off season, we need to work on a vehicle or tractor, we can drive it under cover!
Dad, stapling the plastic down on the new greenhouse. So that the staples don't just pull right back out through the plastic, you have to staple through a strap of "webbing" material that is strong enough that the staples won't pull through.
Enough about the new greenhouse--here's a peek inside the other greenhouse! Right now it's busting the seams with transplants--this shot shows cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, lettuces, chives, peppers, eggplant & more!
A closeup shot of some baby lettuce transplants.
A shot of our Celery transplants--we're excited about giving this crop a try!
Blue violets are some of my favorite Spring flowers! I love how this shot turned out!
Momma has a beautiful flowering quince bush in the backyard.
A closeup of the flowering quince blossoms--they really are pretty after the dull greys and browns of Winter!
My camera didn't pick up the colors very well, but this is a cloud rainbow us boys watched for over an hour over one of the fields. Check out this link to see better pictures of cloud rainbows and information on how they form.
We had a delivery of fertilizer a couple of weeks ago, and the driver wouldn't listen to us when we told him where to drive--he eventually got stuck four or five different times, and we eventually (three hours later) got him out. I still can't believe that we got him out! It took Dad a day with the box scrape to level the front yard/side field back out!
We have more pictures and updates just uploaded to our Facebook page--if you want to see the rest of the pictures click here!
