Miranda July is just as "infused with wonder at the things of the world" as her artwork is, to quote author George Saunders. She and her work are concerned with truths, aliveness, and the idiosyncrasies of the human condition. Which is what makes her art so beautiful, surprising, peculiar and engaging. In her Pretty Cool People Interviews segment, she marvels at being able to capture and archive human truths, particularly in Learning To Love You More but which is something I think she does across her work. Using her words, it is "the mutual recognition of truths between strangers" that gives us "proof of something", something of meaning or possibly no meaning. She blurs meaningfulness and meaninglessness, the real and the surreal, turning everything she touches into an art form. Her work takes something simple and everyday and makes it profound, like The Hallway, causing the audience to be conscious of how we see and think about ourselves and our relationships with others and to the world around us. You can see and feel this through the artistic freedom she bares in the scope of her work.

Selected Press:
"Cursed Lagoon" is the standout of Ott's creations. There is a darkness that creeps just below the surface (...)"
"Without peer, Christine Ott's "Tabu" explores the subdued and the sublime."
"To strive ~ whether romantically or musically ~ is to achieve a certain nobility, no matter what the eventual outcome; here, Ott restores dignity to doomed love."
French composer and Ondes Martenot virtuoso, Christine Ott releases her first full-length album since 2009 and her debut record for Gizeh Records. Only Silence Remains is beautifully melodic and filled with mystery, seeing multi-instrumentalist Ott performing on a variety of different instruments throughout the record.
Ott's creations are nothing short of magical, with the piano taking centre stage throughout, accompanied perfectly by the Ondes Martenot, harmonium, tubular bells and percussion. This music is revelatory in its ability to transport you to another time or perhaps even another world. It's nocturnal qualities coupled with subtle romance reveal an artist at the top of her game. Only Silence Remains seeps into your unconscious, and rewards with repeated listening.
From movie soundtracks to opera, through improvisation, contemporary music, theatre plays, dance or rock music, Christine Ott's musical path has always been guided with a 'no limit' spirit and will to share her passion for new sounds with others. Ott is a true eclectic artist with a musical journey that knows no concessions, always driven by an insatiable curiosity, uncompromising musical choices, and cooperations born with passion and heart. Collaborations with the likes of Yann Tiersen, Radiohead, Tindersticks, Syd Matters, Daau, Raphelson, Noir Désir, Vénus, Oiseaux-Tempête, Foudre, and Mondkopf have lasted over time.... Her music is all together unclassifiable, disturbing, inspired and melodious.
Ott is a mischievous, extraterrestrial being. Always looking for new and interesting ways to work, she does not settle on one instrument, such as the Ondes Martenot: an enigmatic electronic musical instrument invented by Maurice Martenot in 1928. Nor does she settle on one musical style: she is working with an ever-present passion to shuffle the cards. Ott has been an integral part of Yann Tiersen's experimental band for the past ten years, contributing on both recorded material and live shows alongside a vast amount of other work for theatre, film and dance.
Christine Ott will open for Tindersticks on their forthcoming European tour.
"Ott's compositions are shadowy and minimal, the melodies subtly sketched, and arrangements given space and light. It makes for a set that rewards repeated listens." The Skinny
Les InRocks 4.5/5
"impresses as much for the quality of its compositions as its distinctive soundworld" Textura
"a magnificently singular work" Aural Aggravation
"travels from melody to mystery to fear to comfort" A Closer Listen
"Only Silence Remains is a masterpiece of introspective beauty, a piece that delves into neo-classicism, post-rock, chamber music and touches of noise dissonance, without settling into the comforting blanket of a individual genre." Soundblab
"From the celestial passages of 'Sexy Moon' to the lavish melodies of 'No Memories' and 'Szczecin', Christine's new album flows through nearly every conceivable space. It dabbles in the electronic, operatic, and the cosmic, offering glowing examples of each element before whisking them away into piano driven magic." Anthem 9/10

I used to be really embarrassed over my eye lashes. It was mainly because everyone in my family has these really thick and gorgeous eye lashes, and there was me. I am sure that no one outside the family even noticed, but it was really obvious to me. I used to buy fake eye lashes to wear, but it was pretty obvious that they were not real if I was with someone in my family. I decided to look at LiLash eye serum after seeing an advertisement for it one day. I figured I had nothing to lose, and I had beautiful eye lashes to gain if it worked.
I usually don't even look into things like this, because I have heard too many stories about how they don't work. However, with these ones, it is really hard to dispute that it works because there are pictures showing how people looked before using LiLash and then after using the eye lash serum, and the differences between those two pictures is nothing short of amazing. I looked to see how easy it is to use too, because I knew that I would not be able to use it if it was too complicated.
I was surprised at just how easy it is to use the product though. All I had to do was apply it once a day. I slide it right along my upper eyelid, which is easy since that is just mimicking what I already was doing with my eye makeup. Then, I just had to let it dry for a few minutes, then I was able to put on all my normal makeup. Within months, I no longer had to wear the fake eye lashes, because I had my own set of beautiful and very thick eye lashes instead!

Mayor Bill de Blaisio's approval rating reached a 17-month high in the aftermath of his handling of last month's bombing in Chelsea, according to a recent poll.
Forty percent of registered New York City voters who participated in the poll feel de Blasio is doing an "excellent" or "good" job as mayor, his best rating since May 2015, NBC 4 New York reported.
"New Yorkers give the mayor his top grade for his handling of the recent bombing incident in Chelsea," Lee Miringoff, the director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, said in a news release.Marist conducted the poll for NBC 4 and the Wall Street Journal.
Additional good news for the mayor is that half of the polled voters say de Blasio deserves to be re-elected – an increase of eight percentage points from the previous poll. De Blasio now hold a 20-point lead over any potential candidate in the Democratic Party primary.
Of the options offered to those polled about the primary, 42 percent support de Blasio. Twenty-two percent responded that they were "undecided," followed by 12 percent for former City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, 9 percent for city Comptroller Scott Stringer and Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. and 7 percent for state Rep. Hakeem Jeffries.
Marist surveyed 1,094 adults, of whom 799 were registered voters. The margin of error was 3.5 percentage points.

This is my beautiful dog Daisy, and the universe meant for her to be in my life. Daisy is indeed crazy, and also the clumsiest critter I have had the pleasure of being associated with. Our first meeting took place at the hands of serendipity, an almost superfluous interaction to me at the time. One glorious day in paradise, I found myself at a friend's house near the beach, and a pack of wild puppies bumbled into the house in search of scraps of food, and into my life forever.
I always thought that everyone loves puppies, how could you not? But I guess I understand if they are a lawless pack that sneaks into your house and eats your garbage. Of the three banditos, one caught my eye. But it was more than that, for I would that say she commanded my attention. She was a little smaller than the other two, a little more timid and a little more sweet. The moment my eyes alit upon her face, she shined. So vigorously bright and full of light, her energy was radiating out of her so freely. It was so pure, so warm, emanating nothing but love and excitement over the life in front of her eyes. Unbeknownst to us, but at this moment our two energies intertwined. We wove an unseen connection between us, and it has us bound together for eternity.
But alas, at the time I was resisting the flow of the universe. Here is this amazing dog that needs a home, perhaps I am the one meant to provide it? But the time was not right, so I thought. I was not ready for a second dog, what an insurmountable thought and obstacle it seemed to me at the time. To have not one, but two living beings completely dependent upon me for their survival? Unheard of, impossible! What about leaving the country, what would I do with my pups? My ego, even then dissuading me from the moment, convinced me that I couldn't make it work, that it was too hard for me to control. I lost the fight at that time, and moved forward in the world on my path while Daisy continued on hers.
The next time I saw her, months had passed. I came upon her as I wandered to the beach, and she again illuminated my heart. She was a little bigger, a little more awkward, and still a vibrant light. She lived in a harsh world, apparently an unwanted puppy that needed to compete for food and attention. I thought to myself, how could no one feel the need to rescue this princess? I was in a better place than before, and the seed took root in my mind. That night I my heart told me to be her prince, that I am her knight in shining armor. I would swoop in and rescue her, bring her into a life full of love and abundance.
After this realization, the universe told me not to hesitate, that Daisy needs to be in my life from this moment on. I ran beneath the harvest moon to the beach, to the rescue of my lady and carried her off to my castle to start a new life together. The next day, all of the other dogs that lived Daisy's corner died. Apparently, they had all gotten into rat poison, but the reality of the situation is closer to the rat poison being distributed. A few short hours and intuition from the universe saved Daisy's life, preserved her light that it may shine another day. Life and death maintain a delicate balance, and our journey together started right upon the cusp. But in the end the universe had its way, as it always does, and took care of the how to bring and keep us together.
Aside from her energy, the thing that blows my mind about Daisy is her expressiveness. The combination of her eyes, face, and body language communicates her energy and feelings so incredibly well. Her face is creased and furrowed with lines of care, love, and worry. When she smiles, the muscles ripple like waves of emotion flowing underneath her skin. The depth of her emotion is so evident, and she is transparent, completely innocent. Her light is so pure and bright, with no shadow upon it, and nothing inhibiting her from expressing it freely and clearly. She lives, plays, and loves with reckless abandon, completely and fully. In everything she does, she is 100% completely invested in the now. She helps my soul awaken to the light of the universe, celebrates the glory of the moment.
Daisy is so bright, so complex, and so full of light. She's uniquely divine and divinely unique. She reminds me to love intensely and unconditionally, and to revel in the gift of the present. I thank the universe everyday for working its magic, for the special bond that brought us together and wove our life stories into one thread. She is my sweet princess, and I am her prince. How blessed we both are, to share in this life. It fills me with an intense gratitude. And with love.

A selfportrait.
I broke my leg a week ago. Played ball with Lindiwe, our young German Shepherd girl and slipped when running down a hill and I just heard that bone break when I hit the ground. Now my leg is up to the knee in a cast and I am on crutches.
..selfportrait of poor me ..
dip pen and black ink in Daler rowney sketchbook, 21X29.7cm
That is the worst…these crutches. They frustrate me beyond belief. The first few days it felt like someone on either side of my arms were pulling me apart across my chest and my leg carrying the weight felt like it was carrying a freight ship. I moved like a hiccup…in short jumps, trying my best to take a painless step forward. Each time someone tried to encourage me or applaud my effort, I felt like whacking them with the crutches. If I didn't desperately need both crutches, I probably would have done so. I have never broken anything. Sure, many stretched or torn muscles because of sport, but never a broken something. So using these crutches was for me, the ever impatient one, a miserable punishment. But I just had to picture people less fortunate who live like this every day of their lives, and I would get up, let go of the feeling-sorry-for-myself-upper-lip and get moving.
My daughter told me to do a selfportrait of miserable-me during this time. And so I did. And it was the perfect way of taking a step back and end up laughing at myself and be grateful that it is only a broken leg.
..my children decided the white plaster is far too boring, so we decorated it a bit with a black marker..
My next post will be on splashes, splotches and splatters. Keep an eye out if you are interested in seeing how I splash and splatter paint on paper.

You poor thing. And it's summer in Dordogne! Darn it! Sketch is great and so is the comment. Looking forward to more sketches since I imagine your not to mobile at the moment. 😉 Prennez soin de vous.
July 29, 2015 at 4:25 pm
Fabulous self-portrait! So sorry for this mishap and broken bone. You will be an expert with crutches before you know it. My personal experience with them taught me many things about my own body and (later) made me truly appreciate how wonderful it is to be able to get around without them. Looking forward to splashes and spatters! Get well soon.
July 29, 2015 at 4:28 pm
Too sad, Ronellle. Frustrating to get use to–when it happened to me, I needed the crutches but they got in my way.
But glorious portrait– I agree with the others that it says it all. Thankful you didn't hurt your hands..

Breed Better Animals
Would you like to know more?
Cows that produce milk more efficiently. Pigs able to raise larger litters of healthy piglets. Dogs more easily trained for the service of the visually impaired. Horses free of genetic disease, able to serve as more congenial companions. These are just a few of the goals that animal breeders and geneticists consider for the animals in their care. The Department of Animal Science has assembled an integrated team of faculty, students and staff committed to sustainable animal improvement; experts in the application of DNA-based technologies and advanced information processing. Always keeping the animal, its welfare and place in human communities, at the forefront of how we define "better".
We utilize the scientific and technological advances from the various animal breeding research communities to effect more rapid and directed change. The thousands of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers discovered through sequencing projects, the information obtained from numerous genome wide association studies, the development of genomic selection statistical methodology to include molecular data in genetic merit estimates, genome editing techniques, and transgenic technologies are all used collectively to accelerate real genetic change in our food animal species to the advantage of food security and agricultural sustainability globally. These same tools can be used to promote health and well-being of companion animal species.

[dropcap style="font-size: 60px; color: #9b9b9b;"] S[/dropcap]o I've been praying and thinking a lot about breastfeeding and if I will try it again, and this post has just been sitting in the queue as I wasn't sure if I wanted to share something so personal. However, seeing how often I'm asked about this topic, I thought I would take the open/honest approach from the get-go.
Here we go . . . if you haven't already heard my struggles, let's recap: Ryder was not able to breastfeed at all. We saw lactation specialists, sucking specialists, and did everything possible to help him nurse, and nothing worked. We had every feeding/pumping/sucking apparatus you could get (thank the Lord that we also had awesome health insurance back then). The specialists finally said that he had a very poor sucking reflex, and there was nothing that I could do to trigger it. So I pumped until I went back to work, and then I gave it all up due to pure exhaustion. I would spend an hour pumping, followed by an hour feeding, followed by an hour of sleep, only to start it all over, and then get up and go to work. Not great, especially when also recovering from a c-section. I went through a lot of guilt, a lot of kicking myself, a lot of fear about formula because I read far too many articles on formula and all the options available, and was embarrassed every time I fed him in public. It took over two years to get over all that garbage that I put myself through. I was one unhappy mama.
Fast forward to Ezra, the big baby who was born hungry, and guess who couldn't breastfeed this time? Me!! No milk = starving, angry baby. He was such a big, happy baby, yet it very quickly went into a situation of baby losing lots of weight, hungry, frustrated, and screaming his head off when it came time to try to get him to nurse. I was about in tears every time we would sit down for a feeding, and Mark and my parents were beyond questioning why we were even going through all of this again. And I'll leave out all the details of what I went through this time as it was literally a bloody, painful, frustrating situation. Suffice it to say . . . 6 months later I ended up having a mammogram and seeing a breast surgeon due to a lot of issues, which were all probably the reasons for why I was not able to breastfeed E. These issues have still continued . . .
Fast forward to today, and let's just say that I have a lot of hesitation about both breastfeeding and formula feeding. I don't know which way to go, what to do, who to talk to, etc. I did speak with the head midwife at the practice that I go to, and she had great input. But she put the decision fully into my hands. I can go see the breast surgeon again and see if she thinks I'm even physically able to breastfeed. I can go on a prescription to really prepare the mild ducts and see what happens. But both of those options are pricy. I can try the herbs and extra fluids way and see if they do anything beforehand, and then what happens when baby comes. Or I can just say that I've been through enough (and I really have), and baby will be formula fed like her brothers were. All the options are expensive, and from where I'm sitting, there appears to be no great solution.
So all I know for now is that my husband fully supports whatever I decide. He points out how smart our boys are, how he can help feed the baby if she is bottle fed, and how he just wants it to be stress free. He's up for whatever I'm up for. And I know that regardless of whatever I do decide it's our decision. If people disagree, that's their problem. If while out and about in hippy-trippy Boulder or in Longmont with all the progressive, liberal, let-me-criticize-your-lifestyle types, I get comments on how yucky formula is, how yucky plastic bottles/nipples are, how I'm lazy to not breastfeed, etc. (you'd be amazed at what people say to your face), then again, that is their deal. If I decide to try out breastfeeding again and somehow both baby and I just click and there's milk, then thank the Lord! At least we gave it a try, and it all worked. But there is no guilt, no shame, no fear if we don't succeed. My midwife pointed out that some women are never able to breastfeed. For multiple reasons, it just does not happen, an that is OKAY!! She flat out told me that there should be no guilt allowed this time, and that is why I've chosen her practice . . . I appreciate the ability to honestly chat, get good feedback, and be supported.
So in conclusion, for all you mamas out there who were able to breastfeed easily, be so thankful for that. Give the rest of us grace as not all of us have had an easy time. Don't just judge us and say we didn't try. Don't assume that you know everything and why we didn't breastfeed. Don't speak negatively about formula while we're feeding our babies; don't tell me that I'm feeding my baby poison as that is completely NOT HELPFUL and it's flat out rude. Keep your opinion to yourself as it's not your child. And for all the moms like me who have had a hard time with feeding and have used formula, give yourself grace. Make the best decisions you can and move forward. Trust your children to God as they will encounter a lot worse situations in life, and you will be forced to make harder decisions as they age.
Give grace and receive grace; that just might be my newest motto in life . . .

An Update on St. Paul's Public School
Andy Ott | Director of Communications & Technology
Stephen and his team are diligently working to complete the physical construction of the lower level of St. Paul's Public School so that they will be able to educate students through 5th grade beginning next school year (which begins in June). St. Paul's is an English-immersion school and therefore, all instruction takes place in English. The goal is that by teaching the students English, they will then be able to make themselves more marketable after high school in universities and ultimately the job force. Even though the facility is still very much under construction and St. Paul's has only been operating for two years, the facilities at St. Paul's are well above those of neighboring 'state' schools and even rival some of the larger Catholic institutions. This is a testament to Stephen and his team and their attention to detail in the design of the facility.
For the last nine months Stephen and his team have been trying to get their accreditation from the state education office. The process was protracted because Stephen continues to vehemently oppose the culture of bribery that permeates the Indian government. By God's grace, our team was able to celebrate with Stephen and his team on Thursday afternoon (as we were heading to the airport to return to the States) as he received the accreditation letter that will be good for five years and makes St. Paul's a recognized school for 4K through 7th grade.
St. Paul's program is unique in Indian educational culture. It runs as a hybrid of a classical British military school (with its' rigor and discipline) and a collaborative American elementary school (with its' team-based teaching and small group classroom feel). Stephen and his team seem to have reached a harmonious balance in these two paradigms that has helped the children to learn respect and honor while allowing them to participate in group-style learning and having fun while doing it.
What's Next?
As our team witnessed in our time in-country, every work that Stephen and the GEMS team are involved in is a spiritual one. The real 'heavy lifting' happens in the spiritual realm before the fruit ever appears in the physical realm. In that vein, there are several things you can pray for:
1. As you read this, Stephen is traveling to a neighboring state to preach / teach the Bible in a large public gathering. The state he is traveling to is a Hindu hotbed and is very contrarian to the Gospel. Pray for Stephen's safety, pray for him to be an effective communicator, and pray for the safety of Susan and the girls as they remain back in Guntakal.
2. Stephen and his team continue to press forward in hiring teachers and classroom assistants for the upcoming school year so that they will be able to offer English-immersion education to students through 5th grade. Pray for continued favor in the community as St. Paul's recruits new students for the next academic year. Please pray that God will provide the right people to fill the teaching positions in His time. You can pray specifically that God would provide a headmaster for the school for next school year so that Stephen can be freed up to continue developing and training leaders and pastors.
3. As construction continues on the facilities, Stephen's time is torn between preaching / teaching, training pastors, maintaining / training teachers, offering 'headmaster' oversight at the school, and managing the work crews. He often sleeps less than four hours per night. Pray for his health and stamina. Pray for his family – that they would continue to deepen in unity. Pray for his ability to identify, develop and empower new leaders in the organization.
4. Stephen and Susan are excellent parents. Their kids love and respect them. Their family as a whole would do anything to see the Gospel spread in India. Pray that Stephen and Susan would steward the gifts of their children well. Pray that they would continue to raise them in knowledge and fear of the Lord and that their kids would be beacons of light in their school.
5. Lastly, pray for the Village Church Pastors that Stephen is training and equipping. These men and women are on the front lines of reaching India with the Gospel. They often live off of less than $50 / month – much of that earned through a separate vocation in addition to pastoring the small village churches. Pray for the believers in their care – that they would continue to grow in their faith and that the Gospel would take root deep in them, but also in the surrounding community. Pray for their endurance in the face of great persecution.
A Personal Note
It was a great joy to be able to lead a team to visit Stephen and see the progress on St. Paul's Public School. It was also an honor to get to teach and meet with 35+ of the Village Church Pastors that Stephen has trained at a two-day pastor's conference. It was lots of fun to visit and worship with believers in two villages that are being impacted by pastors that Stephen has trained. It was extremely humbling to represent you and offer 'words of greeting and encouragement' to our brothers and sisters that are worshiping Jesus in the midst of a difficult (and even oppressive) culture. And it was a great joy to stand and speak with the parents of the kids who attend St. Paul's – to see the hope in their eyes that the education at St. Paul's could be the ticket to changing their family lines.
All of that to say, thank you. Thank you for your generosity of money in support of our work in India, but also for the generosity of trust in allowing me to lead our team to continue to deepen our partnership with Stephen and Grace Endearment Mission Services.

Newly released emails from WikiLeaks suggest that the Democratic National Committee colluded with CNN in devising questions in April to be asked of then-Republican primary candidate Donald Trump in an upcoming interview.
In an email to DNC colleagues on April 25 with the headline "Trump Questions for CNN," a DNC official with the email username email@example.com asked for ideas for an interview to be conducted by CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer.
"Wolf Blitzer is interviewing Trump on Tues ahead of his foreign policy address on Wed. ... Please send me thoughts by 10:30 AM tomorrow
Dillon, who was identified in previous reports of DNC emails released by WikiLeaks in July.
The sender of the email would seem to be DNC Research Director Lauren who was identified in previous reports of DNC emails released by WikiLeaks in July.
Several hours after the first email was sent, Dillon said in a follow-up email that the interview had been cancelled, "as of now," but shared a list of questions thought up by the DNC that she said could be used for the next interview.
Some of the questions included: "Who helped you write the foreign policy speech you're giving tomorrow? Which advisors specifically did you talk to? What advice did they give you? Did they give you any advice that you chose not to take?" Others explored Saudi Arabia's alleged involvement in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, a pre-preemptive strike against North Korea and court martials for members of the military who didn't follow orders.
A separate email from Dillon that same day said "CNN is looking for questions" for then-GOP primary candidate Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and "maybe a couple on" former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina.
a reply to: CriticalStinker
I guess what I dont understand is.. The reporter was already writing a Trump slam article... so.. why does it matter at that point? The article is already slanted.

Boxing Club
Mr Gordon Stewart, Depute Rector
Our successful Boxing Club is an initiative in partnership with Boxing Scotland, The Highland Boxing Academy and Police Scotland. The aim of the initiative is to improve levels of self-confidence and to encourage a more focused engagement with school (as well as improved physical fitness.) The programme is very successful and has developed to become part of the enhanced curriculum at Charleston Academy. Each week the boys participating in the programme go to the Highland Boxing Gym in the Carsegate.
Boxing Club takes place on Tuesday afternoons during class time. Pupils eligible or invited to participate are accompanied by our steward, Mr Peter Lees and Depute Rector Mr Gordon Stewart. At the gym the boys (and staff!) are put through their paces by Liam Foy (Head Coach) and Alan Maclennan (Coach and Police Scotland Youth Coordinator). Boxing isn't for everyone but the boys participating enjoy the activity and develop important skills as a result. There is a clear focus on physical fitness and also positive goal setting for school and beyond. A number of the older boys will be completing a Leadership Development qualification facilitated by Ami Warren (Active Schools Coordinator.) They will be taking the skills they have developed to some of our local primary schools and Youth clubs as well as offering training for younger children.
Our Boxing Club programme has been funded through Highland Council and Moray Firth Radio with Police Scotland and the Highland Boxing Academy important partners in this initiative. It is hoped that later this session we will be able to run a similar programme for girls.
For more information please see Mr Gordon Stewart, Depute Rector.

Cordelia Russell has been living on the French Riviera for twenty-five years, passing herself off as an English socialite. But her luck, and the kindness of strangers, have run out.
The arrival of a visitor from her distant past shocks Cordelia. She reacts violently to the intrusion and flees her flat to spend a drunken night at a glittering party. As dawn breaks she stumbles home through the back streets. Even before she opens her door she can hear the flies buzzing.

Oliver Ryan is a handsome and charismatic success story. He lives in the suburbs with his wife, Alice, who illustrates his award-winning children's books and gives him her unstinting devotion. Their life together is one of enviable privilege and ease - enviable until, one evening after supper, Oliver attacks Alice and beats her into a coma.
In the aftermath, as everyone tries to make sense of his astonishing act of savagery, Oliver tells his story. So do those whose paths he has crossed over five decades. What unfolds is a story of shame, envy, breath-taking deception and masterful manipulation.
Only Oliver knows the lengths to which he has had to go to get the life to which he felt entitled. But even he is in for a shock when the past catches up with him.
Liz Nugent has worked in Irish film, theatre and television for most of her adult life. She is an award-winning writer of radio and television drama and has written short stories for children and adults. Unravelling Oliver is her first novel.

Love, Family and fields of gold11:51
What a glorious weekend it has been. The sun has been shining and its been so lovely just soaking up the sun and my surroundings.
Friday the boy and I headed to Birmingham to pick up our wedding rings. We were so excited that when we put them on to make sure they were ok, we were reluctant to take them off again but of course we did and now they are in the possession of Lee's Dad (his best man) and we wont be seeing them again till our wedding day.
Whilst in Birmingham we went for food at Nandos, this was Lee's first time and it was so scrummy. We also did a little bit of shopping and I do believe Forever 21 is now my favourite store.
Saturday Lee was working and then playing cricket, so my folks and Nan visited and we went and had a lunch at The Castle on Edgehill. My nan loved it so we shall be taking her back there again over the summer.
Today as been wonderful. The boy and I headed to the local car boot sale and picked up some wonderful things. A new record player, another vintage camera for my collection and one of my Dad's birthday presents. I can't wait to give him it. We had a drink in a little pub tucked away in the hillside and took lots of photos at Broughton Castle.
A wonderful weekend spent with the best people.

Increasingly, the bytes that get shipped to browsers will bear less and less resemblance to the source code that web developers write.
Because performance matters so much and there is so much opportunity to get clever with performance, we'll see innovation in getting our code bases to production. Tools like webpack (tree shaking, code splitting) are already doing a lot here, but there is plenty of room to let automated tools work magic on how our code ultimately gets shipped to browsers.
This is a loss in some ways (who else got their web development start with View Source?) but is a huge win for users, particularly in emerging markets.

Not sure how much progress was made on finishing my army by Saturday. While I didn't get what I wanted to get done on my units, I managed to airbrush my vehicles and do some of the detail work. I did manage to prep my terminators to apply the final detail work. That will leave my final assault squad, the detail work and weapons on my razorback, basing the terminators and a dread(easier then it sounds), finishing the dozer blades on the vindicators (not really wanting to field them but my predators won't make it here and be painted by Saturday), and figuring what the hell am I going to do with the inside of the drop pods (I am leaning toward airbrushing the inside grey and inking it to be cheap).
I won't be winning any prizes but at least I can learn some stuff and have fun.

Mentioned my Shirt from: http://dscotwilliams.com/?search=will-accutane-cause-crohns-to-flare Wantable! – https://www.wantable.com/invites/Z_c4o8GOv2g
http://virgin-yachts.com/?search=levitra-prices-american-pharmacies This review is a 4-part series…Today is March Tote #1, each day this week I will reveal ANOTHER tote, so check in each day to see what I got!!
go HOW IT WORKS
1. follow CHOOSE YOUR TOTE
New totes go on sale the first Monday of every month at 9AM PST. The $49 Tote is a small tote filled with 2-3 pieces of clothing. The $149 Tote is a large tote filled with 5-6 pieces of clothing.
2. http://afternooncrumbs.com/?search=usa-pharmacy-viagra PICK YOUR FAVORITES
Pick one or two items you love, and we'll surprise you with adorable, stylish clothing, at insider pricing, ensuring you get them for an absolute steal. We're talking more than 50% off retail prices – that works out to around $26 per item. But shhh, nobody else has to know.
3. http://aeea4u.org/?search=no-prescription-german-pharmacy-prednisone SELECT YOUR ADD-ONS
Is there something you just can't live without?
Add items to your order during checkout for a reduced price.
4. follow link CREATE YOUR STYLE PROFILE
Style your profile and tell us what you like to wear – or what you don't. Every tote is hand-packed based on your profile. The more we know about your shape, size and style, the better we can personalize your picks for a perfect tote.
5. here YOU'RE GOLDEN
That's it, you're done! Wait for your shipping confirmation and delivery.
Style Profiles – the first thing you want to do BEFORE the Monday tote launches is set up an account and fill out your style profile! During the questionnaire it will ask you which of the following style seems most like you.
The EXCITING thing is that there are now SIX styles to choose from!! They also added areas to choose type of items you DON'T want to receive from colors, to patterns, etc…which is great!!
Feminine + Boho – These are the two styles I chose!!
Edgy + Classic – I might add these two next time
Casual + Trendy – Like but don't love these styles
Sizing Tips – Their sizing goes from XS – L. XS is a size 0 – 2 and Large is a size 12 – 14. Of course sizes from every clothing manufacturer run differently so if you fit in the Large category not all of their larges will fit you. Once you join make sure to join their Facebook trading group to get advice on sizing from different manufacturers.
Pants + Skirts – If you are overweight like I am, you may NOT want to order any bottoms from GT. The maximum waist size is 31. So when you are purchasing a tote you can say in your style profile that you don't want bottoms. However, In my last tote run I said I WOULD accept Above the Knee Dresses, High-Low Skirts, and High-Low Dresses (In the comments I added "as long as they stretched or ran big").
They FINALLY are asking now in the style profile about your personal size. They ask height, weight, chest size, etc… They also ask body type (apple, pear, straight, etc…) and torso type. This should make it much easier to receive items that will fit you correctly. This is great because it is one thing if you receive an item that isn't your style but if it doesn't fit you can't even try to wear it.
There is a small comment box in the style profile where you can tell the stylist about any problem areas not covered in the style profile.
Comment Box Tips – Ok so they changed the comment box to be VERY SMALL, but the good thing is that most of the issues people were writing about in the comment box are now covered in the new and improved Style Profiles!
You will want to note anything to them that wasn't covered in the style profile, clues to your style, or special requests (an item or a stylist), etc…
Here were my comments:
"Stylist: KB please! No sheer shirts. Prefer Feminine/Lace/Sparkle/Bling/French. Only dresses/skirts if they run BIG or STRETCH. No crotch-high dresses. Love Pink. Prefer short-sleeve tops over tanks."
I am going to take out the thing about Tanks next time. I do like tanks I just didn't want a bunch of them.
I think they did a great job improving the Style Profiles and I am sure people will be much happier with the Surprises they receive because of it!!
The Day of Tote Launch – it will be a FRIENZY!
- Prior to Tote Day join the Facebook GT Trading group to see a Sneak Peek of "Chosen" items
- Decide prior to tote day which chosen items you are going to go after (1 for small tote, 2 for large tote)
- Sign in like a half hour before launch (NOON EST)
- Have your Credit Card out and ready!
- Make sure you have enough credit available on your credit card, lol!
- Have your style profile completed
- Add any additional "boutique" items to your cart ahead of time
- At exactly NOON EST click on the "Shop Golden Tote" link. Keep clicking on it until the two tote choices appear.
- Pick your tote and choose your one or two items QUICKLY!!!
- Rush to check out
- Check out. If it gives you an error, just keep hitting the submit/check out button repeatedly
- Next wait for the fashion shows and trades to begin on the FB group as members receive their totes!
- Totes are an all or nothing deal. If you want to return it you have to return the whole tote.
- If you want to keep one or both of your "chosen" items you have to purchase them at the full "boutique" price
- TIP – CHANGE – YOU CAN NO LONGER MIX & MATCH SURPRISES OR CHOSENS WHEN YOU RETURN A TOTE!! Previously if you ordered 2 totes and then return 1 tote, you could mix and match the "surprise" items from each tote. So say you bought TWO of the large totes and received say 4 "surprises" in each. If you like 2 surprises from each tote but still want to return one full tote, as long as you return the same number of "surprises" you are fine. So in this example you return 4 surprises with ONE tote and those 4 surprises you return can be from either tote and you can keep the 4 you like best. So just this month they are no longer allowing this which is disappointing. Sometimes you get a Surprise or a Chosen that doesn't fit or isn't your style and now there is no way to return it unless you return the whole tote. I think this will end up INCREASING tote returns to them. We shall see.
- NOTE – totes must be returned within 14 days of when you receive them.
Now for my REVEAL!!! Check out what was in my March Tote #1 – a $149 tote!!
✻ Chosen Item – Sunday Brunch Dress – LOVE! I love this dress but it was a REALLY small size Large!! I couldn't even get it on. Even when I lose weight it would be a stretch as to if it would fit. I am either going to sell it or I will have to return the tote as it was the main item I wanted in this tote.
✻ Chosen Item – St. Tropez Sweater – LOVE! This sweater is AWESOME!! It is super soft, very comfy and has cute tassels that hang down. I also love that it has generous pockets for your cell phone, keys, etc… In the first picture I paired it with a green tank I got in my tote #2 which will be revealed tomorrow. I chose that shirt specifically to go with this sweater. A KEEP for sure!!
✻ Add-On Item – Fairytale Shift Dress – LOVE! Ok, clearly this dress is too tight on me, but I simply love it! It doesn't stretch at all. The back of it is a solid black and zips up down the back. When I lose weight it WILL fit so I am going to keep it as incentive. #KEEP
Note: My stylist KB did a GREAT JOB on picking surprises for my totes! She seemed to follow my style profile which is great!
✻ Surprise Item – Fantastic Fawn Striped Shirt – DISLIKE! This is a little too small for me and even when I lose weight it just isn't my style. I am going to sell it in the FB trading group.
✻ Surprise Item – Skies Are Blue Blue/Mint Top – LOVE LOVE! This TOTALLY matches my style profile and I love how it fits. It is actually cuter in person than it looks in the pics. A KEEP for sure!!
✻ Surprise Item – Sis Sis Light Pink Top – LOVE! Another shirt that I feel goes well with my chosen style profile! And in my comments I said I like PINK and SPARKLE – check, check! Will look a bit better once I lose a few pounds. LOL
✻ Surprise Item – Hem & Thread Blue/Grey Striped Dress – LOVE! This dress is a high-low dress which I love and it is above the knee which I love (hard to tell in the horrid pic, ha ha). It is comfortable and cute! Once I lose weight it will look much better.
I love this company and concept of getting stylish clothes each month at a good price!!
I was sad that the Sunday Brunch dress was too small as it is SO pretty! But over all this month was WAY better than previous months in regards to fit and style. I can only attribute it to their new and improved Style Profiles…way to go Golden Tote!!
But, I DO have a ONE complaint about this month:
Would love to still be able to mix and match Surprises and Chosens when returning totes. After taping all my totes there was one surprise and one chosen I would like to return in a small tote but can't now.
Now regarding the VALUE of the tote…I am SO happy they finally took off their new web site that the Small Totes were "worth up to $200" and the Large totes were "worth up to $600" as that was just crazy! Now they are saying that their totes are a steal "We're talking more than 50% off retail prices – that works out to around $26 per item." which is much more accurate!! So, YES, I think the tote's value was well worth the price of $149.
And, YES, even though I have had a few items that didn't fit this month, I LOVE Golden Tote and I will be purchasing a tote (or three) every month!
I think it is a great company and has a brilliant idea!
The FB trading group is excellent and I have already made some great trades/purchases there (https://www.facebook.com/groups/Goldentotetrades/ )!

Join Rob Garrott for an in-depth discussion in this video The deformer workflow, part of Cinema 4D Essential Training: 3 Cameras Animation and Deformers.
In an earlier module of the CINEMA 4D Essential Series we talked about the idea of different …object types and sub-categories. …One of those is something called an Operator Object and within the Operator Objects are …the Deformers, and Deformers are a way to modify and distort and change the shapes of …your objects non-destructively. …I'm going to add a cube to the scene and the Operator Objects, the Deformers, are purple …icons and if I click and hold on these, these are all the different Deformers that we have access to.…
I'm going to start off with something very simple which is just a Bend Deformer. …The Bend Deformer allows you to bend your objects, and if I select Bend Deformer and …go to the Object Properties and adjust the Strength, then you can see that that Bend …Deformer is bending, but it's not affecting the cube. …The reason it's not affecting the cube is that Operators work in a very specific way. …Operator Objects like the Bend Deformer only affect their parent or their peer. …

Posted on February 26, 2016 by Billy Allan - UEFA Euro 2016 News
Quietly there isn't a more exciting player coming into the Euro 2016 than German Marco Reus. It's a bold statement, I get it, but Reus has become one of the most complete players in the World, and not many are paying attention.
Bad luck hit Marco two years ago when he missed the 2014 World Cup in Brazil because of an ankle injury. Germany ended up winning the tournament, but their young playmaker missed the party.
Reus has improved since then; he has become the number one playmaker at Borussia Dortmund, and his evolution is getting better and better. He will have the responsibility, along German number one striker Thomas Muller, to carry with his nation in the European Championship.
'I said we want to convert him into a monster because he can be a monster on the field,' Borussia Dortmund's Thomas Tuchel told Goal.
'Marco is a sensitive and creative player who needs to feel free, which means he shouldn't have to worry about his body all the time. We are working on this.
Marco Reus is different than any other player on Germany's roster. He's a combination between Muller and Ozil. Like Muller because he can score whenever he's in front of goal and like Ozil because his creative nature makes the team better.
Reus already played in a Euro tournament, back in 2012 but he came off the bench most of the times. He scored his only goal in the tournament in a 4-2 victory over Greece in the quarterfinals.
For the Euro 2016, he's a long shot listed at 34.0 in the Marco Reus Euro 2016 Betting Odds. He's not a pure striker, but the ball movement that Germany praises will probably put him in a scoring position several times per game.
Germany are the favorites to win the tournament, rated at 4.33 at the Online Sportsbook Bodog. They will share group C with Poland, Ukraine, and Norther Ireland; of course, they are the favorites to win the zone, paying 1.4. Any problems to get to the second round are unimaginable.
Reus chances to become the number one playmaker of this team will be tested in this tournament. He can do it all, and it will be fun to watch. Germany has plenty of playmakers; they show it in the 2014 Brazil World Cup, but perhaps neither has the class of Marco Reus, who should have a superstar level in France 2016.

|RE: [daemon] Problem with parameters.
|Mon, 23 Feb 2004 09:53:29 GMT
Thanks for the information. How do I run my_catalina.bat as a service on Win 2k? This works to force Tomcat to use a particular instance of the JDK, but I need to do this in a service. Setting JAVA_HOME at the system level is not acceptable in my environment. This is medical software and I have to know exactly what version of the JDK I am using. If JAVA_HOME is ever reset by another application it may not function properly. I need it to run as a service because then it's startup is more controllable and it hides the application better for the end users so it is not accidentally shut down. I wish I could pass the JAVA_HOME into the tomcat.exe in some way as to override all of the registry settings. That does not look possible at this time. Thanks for the information. If I have not understood what you were saying I hope this clarifies my situation. -Al -----Original Message----- From: John Zoetebier [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] Sent: Monday, February 23, 2004 3:43 AM To: Jakarta Commons Users List Subject: Re: [daemon] Problem with parameters.

To have all java appliactions use a particular JDK you can set JAVA_HOME on system level. For Tomcat only: Wrap catalina.bat in an other script, say my_catalina.bat In my_catalina.bat you set %JAVA_HOME% to the root folder of the JDK you want. Note that it MUST be a JDK because otherwise JSP compilation will fail. Then call catalina.bat within my_catalina.bat. -- John Zoetebier Web site: http://www.transparent.co.nz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Willis Towers Watson reports higher revenue, loss on merger costsReprints
Willis Towers Watson P.L.C. reported third-quarter revenue of $1.78 billion on Friday, up 2% from a year ago on a pro forma basis, but also posted a $32 million loss, compared with pro forma earnings of $209 million a year ago, as the insurance brokerage faces merger and restructuring costs.
The former Willis Group Holdings P.L.C. and Towers Watson & Co. completed their merger on January 4. CEO John Haley acknowledged some issues concerning merger expenses during a conference call with analysts.
"I think you always have a little bit of loss whenever you go through some big changes like this, in the merger that we did," Mr. Haley said. "I think as we put the organization together, we probably made it a little bit too complex, too."
Mr. Haley added that executives were "making sure to streamline the organization and spend more time with clients and less time internally."
Over the past two weeks, several former Willis senior executives have left, or announced their intention to leave, the firm, including Dominic Casserley, who is the merged firm's deputy CEO and was the CEO of Willis. Mr. Casserley will leave on Dec. 31 when his employment agreement expires.
Among its major business units, its corporate risk and broking segment reported a 5% increase in commissions and fees in the third quarter to $546 million.
Its investment, risk and reinsurance segment reported a 9% decrease in commissions and fees to $292 million.
Regarding reinsurance, Mr. Haley said the firm has experienced some of the biggest headwinds in North America, though Willis Towers Watson has so far exceeded its new business targets this year.
"What hurt us," he said, "is that some existing clients are buying less reinsurance … partly because mergers have cut the market in total, and then we've had a couple of clients that have restructured some of the reinsurance programs, which have led to revenues being shifted to different years."

Hello all you wonderful readers! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend. For those of you who celebrated Easter, a belated Happy Easter. Whether you're a believer or not, Easter always turns out to be a lovely time for family, food, and fun. My family tends to focus on the traditions of Easter more as a celebration of spring. We decorate eggs, organize and execute the chocolate egg hunt, and eat…a lot.
This year we were fortunate enough to go to the cottage for the weekend. The temperature hovered around 14 C (57 F), which, under cloudy conditions can feel damp and cold. But we had wall to wall sunshine! I don't think I stopped smiling from the moment I got there until I had to pack to leave (which always makes me grumpy but that's a good story for another post).
One of the most satisfying things about going to the cottage, besides the obvious, is that my kids turn from screen (tv, Wii, computer, Nintendo) magnets to outdoor and card game enthusiasts. Their imaginations burst forth like the first spring flowers, full of colour and inspiration. I could sit all day (on the deck, in the sun, with a drink and a good book in my hand) and just watch them and listen to their banter.
Sunday morning the sun glistened like starlight off of the waters as they lapped at the shore in the small bay. I stood on the deck, clutching myself against the north wind, and sighed deeply. Nothing but fresh, cool air filled my lungs. Across the lake snow was still resting upon the banks indicating that the water was still quite frigid, but it was a brilliant blue, like shimmery denim (if there were ever such a thing). It was that kind of blue that brought back memories of summer. I felt the sun on my face, then, and I knew I'd be back again soon.
Welcome Spring! Bring forth summer!

5 Tips to Impress Home Buyers
Selling your home? Here are a few quick tips to help catch the attention of prospective buyers.
1. Lighten up- A bright home appears to be more welcoming then one then a dark one. Taking down drapes, using light colored lampshades, and even replacing florescent bulbs with brighter incandescents.
2. Satisfy their sense of smell- No one wants to buy a home that smells like a gym bag. Make your home smell welcoming to prospective buyers. Add scented candles, potpourri, or even bake a apple pie before buyers pop by.
3. Declutter- Every prospective buyer will look at your home and picture their stuff in it, from art pictures to large pieces of furniture. If your space is full of knick-knacks and clutter they will not be able to do so.
4. Create curb appeal- First impressions count. Make sure your home stands out by clearing your front yard of weeds and leaves. Seal cracks in the driveway, and repair patio stones. The more a buyer likes the outside the more excited they will be to see the inside.
5. Be ready to show your space- Keeping your home neat and tidy will eliminate trying to pull off the last minute quick clean. Keeping the carpets clean and dishes put away means your house is always welcoming and appealing to prospective buyers.

Facelift Surgery in Austin, TX
By age 40 the elastic fibers in the skin and the underlying deep structures of the face begin to lose elasticity and sag. While the extent of facial aging is influenced by factors such as genetics, weight change, smoking, stress, and sun exposure, the appearance of facial aging is inevitable. However, there are many surgical and non-surgical face lift options today that address the underlying causes.
For younger patients, Dr. Fisher may recommend a "liquid facelift", a customized combination of non-surgical procedures that tighten, lift and smooth out the skin on the face. This often includes Botox and one or two different fillers.
While a liquid facelift is a great first step in eradicating the early signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles and a loss of volume in the cheek area, it is less effective at combating the sagging jowls, deep nasal folds and excess skin that result from the gradual degeneration of the deeper structures in your face. A facelift addresses the actual underlying causes.
To perform a facelift surgery, Dr. Fisher begins by making short incisions in your hairline, behind your ears, and hidden inside the ear. Through these openings, she lifts and restores a youthful tautness to the deep muscles of the face and removes excess skin to subtly tighten. Keeping the incision predominately inside the front of the ear results in little to no visible scar. The goal of any facelift procedure is a younger, more rested, and completely natural looking you.
This and other cosmetic procedures can be performed in an accredited outpatient surgical facility. During your recovery, we recommend one week of rest and a second week of light activity at home. You can expect some mild bruising and swelling, but it should resolve within the first few weeks. Patients can return to work as soon as three weeks post-surgery, and may resume cardiovascular exercise after four weeks.
To find out more about facelift surgery, or any other facial rejevenation option, send us a message or call our office at (512) 815-0123 to schedule a consultation.

Re: glassing - mmm!
Posted by George K on Feb 18, 2005
1. How perfect do you want the paint to look? Any imperfection will show up with gloss paint. You need to get the hull as smooth as possible before the primer. 220 on a ROS will do the job. And it depends on how thick your two coats are. Sounds like you used a minimum of epoxy so you might want to be a little on the careful side when sanding. Low spots will reveal themselves (won't be dull like the rest of the boat) and will need to be filled. The roller works well. 2. From the deckbeam forward the sheers are planed to the 16" radius. From the rear bulkhead back they are planed to that radius. In between the deck beam and the rear bulkhead you plane a rolling bevel that starts at one radius and ends at the other. Not as hard as it sounds. Do the forward and aft sections first then the rolling bevel.
Above all, enjoy the building process. It IS addictive.
