It's not everyone who gets a day proclaimed in his honor, but friends agree Clint Snyder deserves the honor.
So did the Palatka City Commission when they voted to salute the former Putnam County Property Appraiser, businessman and civic promoter with the proclamation on his 92nd birthday Sunday.
It turned into a special weekend for Clint including a family gathering and a mural dedication. That mural, of a Palatka train depot, is one of those civic promotion things for which Clint was honored.
In 1998 he and his late wife, Elizabeth Wolfenden Snyder, began what has become the Snyder-Conlee Mural Committee, rallying support to paint murals throughout Palatka as a way of attracting tourists and preserving history. Now, there are 20 plus murals up on walls scattered throughout town and more on the way.
Clint's sons, Bill from Palatka and Don from Eastman, Ga., were on hand for the celebration as were several of his grandchildren - Graham Snyder, Lane Griffin and Erin Springthorpe - and great-granddaughter Catherine Springthorpe.
The event also celebrated the 15th year of the committee, which was originally known as the Conlee Mural Committee.
Members of the mural committee serenaded Clint as did Camilla Johnson. She's a Palatka girl who went on to sing with Metropolitan Opera in New York and now is a soloist at Marble Collegiate Church there. She's been in town helping out her mother. Her accompanist was Bob Cubbage.
Mural committee president John Alexander handled master of ceremonies duties and Judy Rothschild talked of the history of trains. Turns out the depot is actually the old Georgia Southern Railroad terminal and not the Union Depot. At one point, Palatka was a major stop with some 22 trains a day coming through. Howard Blacszyk and Larry Beaton helped do the research.
Mayor Vernon Myers, Vice Mayor Mary Lawson Brown and Commissioner Allegra Kitchens were on hand for the proclamation reading as was Clerk of the Courts Tim Smith, County Commissioner Chip Laibl and Tax Collector Linda Myers.
Others in the audience included Evie Snyder, Sandra Roberts, Ruth Benjamin, Larry Beaton (fresh from his retirement after 40 plus years with the Putnam County Sheriff's Office), Harriet Pinkston, Don Goody, Sam Deputy, Jean Deputy, Gwen Alexander, Julia Ortagus, Linda Little Crabill, Alex Sharp, Robbie Correa, Marlene Lagasse, Susan Mathews and Bonnie and Joe Trauerman.
Artist Terry Smith out of Land 'O Lakes was on hand for the dedication. He's done several murals in Palatka.
John Alexander added a nice tribute for Elizabeth Snyder, noting she would be remembered "with affection … for her strength, integrity, kindness and devotion.
Clint thanked the audience and said getting involved with murals had been "an education" on each and every one. He recalled the effort put into one featuring the wildflowers of Putnam County and one two-hour phone call between Elizabeth and another committee member as they made sure all the flowers depicted were accurate. Cline said he also learned about "bumblebees, butterflies and all that good stuff" on that particular mural.
And lest you think that's it for Clint, he says another mural is set to go up on Angela's and this one will future some of the great performers who have played in Palatka including Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Palatka's own Belton Brothers, who performed at Harlem's Cotton Club. He's now working on a seven-panel mural saluting military personnel from World War through the present conflict.
Florida School of the Arts offers "Aida" this Thursday through Sunday at the school on the Palatka campus of St. Johns River State College.
This is the pop opera version retelling Giuseppe Verdi's classic opera of a betrothed Egyptian army captain who falls for an enslaved Nubian princess. This version was created Sir Elton John and Tim Rice and originally produced by Disney Theatrical Productions.
FloArts voice and musical theater instructor Stephanie Walter-Masterson is directing the piece. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday. All shows take place in the Main Theatre and admission is $5.

The speech will be at 7 p.m. on Oct. 28 at the auditorium of FloArts on the Palatka campus of St. Johns State College. For more, call 386-328-8998.
Did you know … The FFA Alumni Rodeo over the weekend was dedicated to the late Bryan Alford, who died recently. Bryan was well-known and well-liked in the community and was a former FFA member. … Charles Appleby, who grew up in Palatka, has been awarded the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award by the Boy Scouts of Palatka. He's now CEO of the Jacksonville-based firm, Advanced Disposal. The award is given to Eagle Scouts who distinguish themselves in their life work and share their talents with their communities on a voluntary basis. The award isn't given until a minimum of 25 years after the recipient earned his Eagle Scout award. … River City Players had good turnouts and provided lots of laughs with their newest production "Drinking Habits" over the weekend.

If you are going to live the life that we have chosen (ok now I do sound like I am starting a commune) you need to make sure that you are being a bit productive as well. Cows and chooks are cool, but if you are keeping them purely as pets then you want to make sure that you have the cash to be able afford those big pets.
That's why I try and plant as many fruit trees as I possibly can. Fruit is not cheap so every banana we don't buy is Lantanaland paying itself off. Sometimes you can fall into the trap of being a bit choosy, only eating and buying the things that you want. That was the thought that hit me as I watched The Wife take pictures of a lizard eating the guavas falling off the tree for him to gobble up. I don't particularly like them as a fruit to eat but what about them in some jam?
As usual I couldn't be buggered looking up a recipe so I just put the guavas, cut in half with two lemons roughly chopped in a pot with half the weight of the fruit in sugar and boiled it up. When it went a bit when tacky on a frozen plate I passed it through a sieve and hey presto, guava jelly. Unlike most of my jam it actually set too and considering it is almost all gone after my parents visited for a week, it must be pretty good.
Confident after my jam experiments I thought I'd have a go at some relish. This time I looked at a few recipes to get a rough idea of the sugar/fruit/vinegar mix. I boiled up the fruit with one lemon, a little water, some cloves, star anise, mustard seeds, cumin and bay. In another pot I sweated off two brown onions, eight hot chillies and a truckload of garlic. Once they were nice and translucent I added about a fifth of the weight of the fruit and onions in sugar and about the same or a bit more of white wine vinegar. (I didn't really measure this out, worse luck). Then I sieved the boiled guavas into the onion mix, added a tin of chopped tomatoes and boiled the whole lot for roughly an hour. I wish I had tomatoes at the moment as well but thems the breaks.
Of course the result was the best relish I have ever tasted, a just reward for not measuring and recording the whole process. Still, not a bad outcome, utilizing what is pretty much a weed here in Lantanaland. There are massive groves of it down the hill that haven't fruited yet so if you know me and live in SE QLD then I'd be thinking what you like more, guava jam or chilli guava relish.

The weather has finally changed and the smell of fall is in the air. Time to hike, bike, go apple picking, and WALK! Instead of trying to make time to walk, why not make walking part of your everyday routine? It's possible when you live in a walkable community.
Ranked by Walk Score as the second most walkable city in Virginia out of more than 60 cities studied, many Alexandrians already know the benefits of walkable communities. Residents of neighborhoods such as Old Town, Del Ray, Beverley Hills, Rosemont and lesser know communities such as Dyes Oakcrest already live this walking lifestyle.
In a recent survey by the Urban Land Institute, 50% of respondents said that walkability is either the top or a high priority in where they would choose to live. For millennials, that number was 56%. When asked why they want or like walkable neighborhoods, people often site convenience and a greater sense of community. Those are absolutely important, but there are even more benefits.
Homes in Walkable Neighborhoods Hold Their Value
Walkable neighborhoods in cities across the country demonstrate greater tax revenue per square foot than any other type of development. And multiple surveys by the National Association of Realtors show that walkability is directly linked to increasing property values. So, in an ever-competitive real estate market, why not buy in a community that is more valuable and more likely to increase in value?
Cars are Expensive
According to AAA, in 2015 the average cost to own and operate a vehicle was $8,698 (more than $10,000 per year for SUVs). While it may not be realistic to give up cars altogether, living in a walkable community can enable people to own fewer cars per household or certainly drive their existing vehicles less per year. Which means more money in your pocket, not to mention cleaner air from reduced car emissions.
More Community Businesses Benefit
When walking to shopping and errands, studies show that people visit more stores per outing as opposed to when doing errands in their car. And those stores tend to be locally owned. Why not stop by and pick up that unique gift at the specialty store right next door to the grocery store and local wine shop? That's good for your time management and good for those many extra local businesses that you visit. A great way to be a neighborhood champion and "shop small".
You Live a Longer and Healthier Life
We all know how good we feel after a walk outside, especially on a gorgeous fall day. According to the Mayo Clinic, regular brisk walking helps you maintain a healthy weight, prevent or manage conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes, strengthen your bones and muscles, improve you mood, and improve your balance and coordination. One recent study says that walking 30 minutes a day, five days a week, adds 1.3-1.5 years to your life. So for every minute you spend walking, you get three back!
If you are looking to make the smart move to or within a walkable community in Alexandria, give me a call at (703) 864-3438 or email me. I'm here 7 days a week, and ready to take you on a tour of some of the most charming and walkable neighborhoods in Alexandria!

In this video you guys will see the world record long jump made by the American daredevil Gregg Godfrey in a truck cab. At the end finally receiving all the evidence needed to verify the attempt, we can confirm that Gregg Godfrey absolutely smashed World Record Long Jump.The jump was a staggering 35.21 metres longer than his 2008 try – that's more than three times the earlier distance of 15.59 m. However, last 24 July, at an Evil Knievel Days event in Butte, Montana, USA, the stunt driver got back inside his semi-truck. A unit typically used to pull large trailers in the long-haul road freight industry, not for jumping. Daredevil Godfrey launched his 45,000 kg truck from a ramp to clear a reported distance of 160 feet – potentially trebling his previous benchmark. he fearless driver took to Twitter to announce that he "meant to only go to 140", suggesting that the last, potentially record-breaking 20 ft was actually accidental.With very little separating Godfrey's truck and the huge surrounding crowd, the video shows him slam on the breaks as he lands, narrowly avoiding a crash into a nearby house. Or, is it just perfect parallel parking? Greg Godfrey didn't just break his previous record,he annihilated it.
The World Record Long Jump he set in 2008 was for a 15.59 meter jump, but in Montana recently, Godfrey reset that record by a stunning 35.21 meters.
In order to complete the jump Godfrey planned to get the nine-ton truck up to 70 miles per hour. Godfrey was originally going to jump his semi over Evel Knievel's extra-long 'Red Hauler' truck, but organizers couldn't fit the iconic vehicle between the two ramps, the Montana Standard reported. In order to complete the jump Godfrey planned to get the nine-ton truck up to 70 miles per hour, according to KXLF. The younger Godfrey broke a World Record Long Jump of his own when he jumped a utility terrain vehicle 202 feet and Levi Troutman broke his own world record by running through ten burning walls.

ITEXPO Exhibitor Speech Mobility Tells Its Story
Speech Mobility built its Evatel integrated communications platform to provide smart telephony and safe mobility for business people on the fast track. The company will be at ITEXPO next week talking about that solution. We recently checked in with Bachir Halimi, president and CEO of Speech Mobility, to learn more.
To what extent are you leveraging APIs to enhance business opportunities?
APIs are the connectors that enable collaboration between different user communications tools.
Your phone can check your calendar to know your status and route your calls accordingly. Your CRM can check your phone to know your recent interactions with a customer.
APIs break the barriers that forced productivity applications to work in silos, often with duplicated user data. Just think of how many copies of your contacts are managed by the different apps that you use – email contacts, telephone directory, social networks, CRM, etc.
Tell us about your Evatel business communications platform.
Speech Mobility built its Evatel business communications platform leveraging open APIs to provide seamless integration of telephony, messaging, speech, and CRM. This unique utilization of APIs to securely exchange user data between different office tools enabled Speech Mobility to offer its users multimodal communications and integrated collaboration to make telephony smarter and mobility safer for business people on the go.
Security and privacy were among the top priorities addressed by Speech Mobility in its use of open APIs. Data encryption and single-sign-on are enforced each time private information is accessed or transmitted to third-party platforms such as mail systems (Google, Microsoft), phone systems (Asterisk, BroadSoft), and CRMs (Salesforce, Insightly).
As voice communications and business applications continue to move to the cloud, the use of APIs to securely exchange data will be inevitable. Customers will expect it, and vendors will have to supply it.
What emerging technology has the potential to have a disruptive impact on businesses in the coming years?
Speech and AI will have the biggest impact on business communications.
Speech is still the most natural way to communicate and the safest while driving. It's easier and faster to use than any other communication means. Why use a dial pad when you can just speak?
People call people, not numbers. So phones must be smart enough to reach people when and where they want to be reached. It's about connecting people to people. This also means that the phone must know its users, their whereabouts, their important contacts, their time schedule, and their preferences to know when they're working and when they're not. Only very personal intelligent assistants can provide such services.
The adoption of AI and speech technologies in telecommunications will be accelerated by the growing need for more efficiency, more mobility, and more productivity.

We are storyboard artists in animation. During the course of production millions of sketches are produced. Some are used but most are not. These are the ones that "got away" and scribbly scribbles deemed not worthy for prime time.
Monday, July 30, 2012
WTF? I'm posting here!
After I don't know how long away, I'm gonna post a drawing. And not just a drawing. An actual unused drawing from an actual animated project from an actual animation studio like the description of this blog stated so many years ago. :-D. I'm sure you can guess the studio and project.

The online casino industry has quickly become one of the highest grossing markets worldwide and is still enjoying a meteoric rise to fame to this day. But what makes a good online casino, and as a beginner, what should you be looking out for?
Clicking one's way into an online casino is quite an experience. There are countless providers out there, meaning that there's bound to be something to suit everyone's fancy in terms of theme, platform, interface and overall usability. As far as entertainment offerings go, ditto. Some casinos choose a specific area of focus and bring players speciality selections, whilst others have a broader spectrum to satisfy a wider variety of players. That said, most casinos will be equipped with a backbone of the basics.
Roulette, Poker, Blackjack and Baccarat are often included in both virtual and live varieties, where players get the chance to interact with other players and/or a live dealer. A generous slot offering is commonplace on most casino websites, given that it remains one of the top varieties of gambling entertainment and that the most substantial wins can be made at this type of game. For those of you into sports betting, many online casinos now offer a comprehensive sportsbook, fully integrated with the platform.
While an online casino can't completely replicate the experience of visiting one in person, many find it even better than the real thing. The best part being, given that we live in the digital age, casino level entertainment is now easily accessible to any player, at any given moment, anywhere, without the need to venture out and spend ridiculous amounts of money in doing so. What's more is that thanks to various authorities governing gambling laws worldwide, it is a safe, fun and most importantly legal recreation activity.

For the longest time, the biggest obstacle to my writing has been the fact that I felt like I had no story to tell. I had nothing to say that anyone would want to hear. Or nothing important enough to say that wasn't being already said by the trolls of the blogosphere and twitter-verse.
I have no rags-to-riches sagas. Never met a rich, ridiculously handsome dude who would teach me all the different shades of grey. No Adele-level breakups. No domestic-goddessy skills, no wizardry with a flat iron, no magic with makeup. I don't even have a cat to turn into an internet sensation. Never overcame a soul-crushing obstacle in life. And to top that off, I chose to become an accountant.
An accountant is a vegetable equivalent of a boiled potato. Hardy, stable, and gravely uninteresting.
In short, God has blessed me in so many ways that make for a great life but an unlikely bestselling autobiography. The only exciting thing to have ever happened to me that veered me off my humdrum path, pushed me onto a side road and has me precariously hanging off a cliff with a waterfall underneath is, wait for it – parenting.
I was a career forward, yoga-pant donning, Starbucks-drinking, Pinterest-ing, travel-bug-infested millennial. I was the owner of my own destiny, the guardian of my ovaries. Before I became a mother, I liked children as much as anyone else – which means infrequently and from a distance. I liked them in viral online videos and when I could give them back to their parents when they started crying. I rolled my eyes at mini-vanning soccer moms, looked down upon tantrum-ing toddlers in grocery store aisles, judged women who had one too many bundles of joy, and was occasionally known to slap ice-cream cones out of little kids' fingers.
What was so exciting about a gazillion diaper changes, spending your evenings watching Dora-the-whoever, sitting in parks with screaming children on slides, doing lame arts and crafts, or sitting through little league games with glazed eyes and glazed Timbits?
And then I had a kid.
After I became a mother, I realized that parenting was one of the most exciting things you can experience because it's exactly like jury duty. Allow me to explain. Everyone is inexperienced and unprepared for the job. An innocent person's life is in your hands. You constantly second guess your assumptions and decisions. It can be mind-numbingly mundane at times. Sometimes you are stuck in a room all day, cut off from the world. You may forge friendships with people who are nothing like you, but are going through the same experience. Someone is going to lose their shit at some point out of frustration. If you are honest and committed to the job, it can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. And lastly, you will have to look at, and inspect items with other people's bodily fluids on them. It's the EXACT SAME THING.
The things I once thought were mundane, like spending your evenings watching Dora, are still mundane, but somehow you start enjoying them because a) Dora babysits your child as you cook b) your child memorizes all the Spanish phrases and then talks to your parents in Spanish which confuses the heck out of them. Keeping your child entertained and physical means you take them to parks where you get to be outdoors, slurp on frappuccinos, and connect with parents of screaming children on slides. Grocery shopping becomes entertaining because your child gets excited every time they see a fruit they recognize and also because they point at random people and say, "Who's that?" You realize arts and crafts are not so bad after all because you play with playdough and colorful sticks long after your child has moved on to other things. And there's nothing quite like eating an ice-cream cone with your child on a hot, summer afternoon and getting them a different flavor so you can eat some of theirs too.
Becoming a parent changes your identity, shapes your perspective and makes you rethink who you are and who you want to become. It unlocks reserves of love, patience and strength in you that you didn't know existed. It makes you stop judging nerve-wrecked mothers of tantrum-ing toddlers and give them a sympathetic eye and a fist bump instead.
A friend once told me that I say things about parenting that other people don't. Either because they have honey-covered angels for children or lacked the gall to be honest. In any case, it means that I may not have an interesting story, but I have an interesting vantage point on it. If you are reading this and you aren't a parent, you are about to learn a lot about parenting. And also jury duty.
If you are a parent. Stay tuned. It's gon get fun.

JDM Action Day - 10th June
Castle Combe Circuit organise various Action Days throughout the year and Bath Motor Club have been asked to help with the setting up and running of these themed activity days.
So what's the deal:
Friday (day before): Helping set up with pitch layout and marking, erecting signs, etc.
Saturday: Approx 3 hours in the morning organising getting people through the entrances and on to their pitches with as few delays as possible, making sure they do not overspill their allocated space and generally trying to make the exhibitors life easier. The rest of the day is your own.
In return:
Some good banter. Free entry to the show (ticket price £15.00). Saturday, a food voucher for Breakfast, Lunch and morning or afternoon drink plus a contribution to your travell.
A track session worth £40 can be arranged (noise check and helmet required) but must be booked through me in advance. An ideal opportunity for some testing or simply a chance to have a blast.
AND NOW THE BIG ONE: anyone who commits in advance to three of the eight dates will be entitled to a FREE season pass (worth £106) to go to all the race meetings etc. at the circuit.
So I am looking to you to help out primarily on the Saturday, but this year I will need more help on the Friday, as we are likely to have less help from the circuit staff (who knows - 2 events with Friday help could get you that season pass!!).
Please contact me with any questions or more importantly to volunteer at any of the contact details below.

Mobility is no longer considered a luxury within enterprise but a critical part of a networking
strategy as firms look to increase productivity and remain competitive in a rapidly changing environment. As mobility becomes an integral part of the infrastructure, IT must deal with supporting numerous devices including laptops, smartphones and other mobile handhelds. The challenge for IT will be enabling productivity improvements while mitigating the risk of numerous types of devices. The devices and their memory cards may hold sensitive organizational and personal information, including information about product announcements, financial statements, or customer records.
In the PC world, IT can standardize on a platform. But in the mobile domain, IT must

Mobile, RIM BlackBerrys, Apple iPhones, Symbian devices, Palm devices and Linuxbased
devices such as Google's Android phones. These handhelds, which are now approaching
the capabilities of laptops, create unique security requirements because these
devices are:
•Often purchased and owned by the end user (with the exception of BlackBerrys
which are often purchased by the 9irm)
•Lost more frequently than laptops but not immediately reported as lost
•Less likely to be protected by a strong passcode if purchased by an end user

This is a season of gerrymandering. A federal court in Texas will soon rule on whether the state discriminated against minorities when it adopted its current congressional map. The Supreme Court will hear the biggest case of all in October: a challenge to Wisconsin's partisan gerrymander with the potential to curb partisan gerrymandering nationwide.
But before the courts weigh in, it's time to end the last debate over partisan gerrymandering. That's the one that unfolded after the 2012 election, when Democrats won the House popular vote but fell 17 seats short of taking the chamber. It caused a classic feud between "data" and the conventional wisdom, with data journalists and political scientists contending that gerrymandering wasn't responsible for Republican control of the House.
Now, the electoral context has changed, and the old debate is moot. Heading into the 2018 midterms, data and conventional wisdom agree: Gerrymandering is a big reason the G.O.P. has a real chance to retain control of the House, even if the Democrats score a clear win.
Most of the political-science-based estimates suggested that gerrymandering cost the Democrats a net of 7 to 12 seats in 2012 (with a few estimates coming in higher and lower). That wouldn't be enough to prove decisive in 2012, not with the Democrats falling 17 seats short. But in other contexts, that's potentially a very significant number. If the party had come somewhat closer to retaking the House, most political scientists and data journalists would have probably conceded that partisan gerrymandering was at least plausibly responsible for the G.O.P.'s margin of victory.
Similarly, the Democratic margin of victory in the House popular vote simply wasn't very large: a single percentage point. The political scientists needed only to find that the alternative explanations for the Republican edge — incumbency and the tendency for Democrats to "waste" votes in heavily Democratic cities — could account for that percentage point. Those who saw gerrymandering as the main cause of the G.O.P. victory implicitly assumed that those alternative explanations added virtually nothing to the Republican edge.
There is little question that incumbency and geography help bias the House playing field against the Democrats. The incumbency advantage is perhaps the best-established effect in American elections, and Republicans entered the 2012 election with many more seats than the Democrats. The Democratic geography disadvantage has been harder to clearly establish, but there is little doubt that it exists. The Democrats routinely win 80-plus percent of the vote in big cities worth many congressional districts. There are very few places where the Republicans win 80-plus percent of the vote in an area with enough people to form a congressional district. The result is the remaining vote — and remaining districts — tilt Republican.
Minnesota has emerged as a compelling example. The map was drawn by a judicial panel appointed by the state Supreme Court after the Democratic governor rejected plans by the Republican-led legislature. Hillary Clinton won the state but took only three of the state's eight congressional districts. And Donald J. Trump won the median congressional district by eight points, meaning Democrats have to win in districts that favored Mr. Trump by a clear margin to claim a majority of the state's congressional districts.
What makes Minnesota so compelling is that the state's political geography in presidential elections has shifted to become more like the rest of the country. It used to be the rare state where Democrats were competitive or even victorious among rural voters, but in 2016 it exhibited the more typical pattern of big Democratic strength in the cities and Republican strength in the countryside. As the political geography became more typical, so did the Democratic disadvantage.
It's hard to quantify the effect of political geography on the Democratic disadvantage nationwide, much as it's hard to quantify the effect of gerrymandering. What's clear, though, is that both effects are real, and it's hard to argue that incumbency and geography couldn't have made the difference in the Democrats' failure to take the House in 2012.
But it's not 2012 anymore. If the political environment doesn't change significantly before next November, Democrats could be poised for a sweeping victory in the midterm elections — one far greater than their victory in 2012. In that sort of political environment, the Republicans will need every advantage they can claim to hold the House. Partisan gerrymandering would be essential to their path to victory.
Here's a rough way to think about it: The Democrats need 24 seats to retake control of the House, so if the Democrats are likely to gain at least 12 seats, they're within range of the 7 to 12 seats estimated to be lost due to gerrymandering. Or put differently: If Democrats are likely to gain at least 12 seats, Republicans would probably retain the House only by the margin of gerrymandering.
The more interesting debate now isn't so much whether partisan gerrymandering would represent the Republican margin of victory next year. It's whether the combination of gerrymandering, incumbency and geography could be enough to let the House Republicans survive a so-called wave election, like the one that last swept Democrats into power in 2006.
It's a tough question, but the 2006 results are a pretty nice illustration of why it's a debate. Back then, the Democrats had a similar, if perhaps somewhat better, set of opportunities to win Republican-held seats. They also benefited from a string of victories in heavily Republican districts where Republican incumbents succumbed to scandal or indictment. In the end, the Democrats won 31 seats in that election — just seven more than the 24 seats that Democrats need to retake the House in this election. Take away those lucky breaks because of scandal or indictment, and suddenly it's not clear whether a 2006-like political environment would get the Democrats the 24 seats they need.
None of this is to say that the Democrats can't or won't retake the House. Perhaps they will, even if gerrymandering makes it much harder. Maybe they'll do even better than they did in 2006. But this time, there's a very good chance that the Republicans, if they survive, will do so by the margin of gerrymandering.

RLJ Entertainment Picks Up Sci-fi Action Thriller THE OSIRIS CHILD Starring Kellan Lutz
RLJ Entertainment has announced the acquisition of the sci-fi action thriller THE OSIRIS CHILD starring Kellan Lutz, Isabel Lucas and more. Head inside for the details!
From the Press Release:
LOS ANGELES, June 13, 2017 – RLJ Entertainment (NASDAQ: RLJE) has acquired all North American rights to the highly anticipated action/science fiction film THE OSIRIS CHILD. Directed by Shane Abbess (Infini, Gabriel), who also co-wrote the film with Brian Cachia (Infini), the film stars Kellan Lutz (Twilight Franchise), Daniel MacPherson (The Shannara Chronicles, "APB"), Isabel Lucas (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Knight of Cups), Temuera Morrison ("Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith"), with Rachel Griffiths (Hacksaw Ridge, "Six Feet Under") and Teagan Croft, making her feature film debut.
RLJE plans to release THE OSIRIS CHILD in theaters and On Demand in Fall 2017. Mark Ward, RLJE's Chief Acquisitions Officer, made the announcement today.
"We're excited to be releasing this action-filled, science fiction film," said Ward. "Writer/director Shane Abbess is a true visual talent who cleverly applies his knowledge of filmmaking to bring a futuristic action-packed, adventure-filled story to the big screen."
THE OSIRIS CHILD is set in a time of interplanetary colonization.
"We wanted to bring back a type of movie that seemed all but extinct – the old school sci-fi action/adventure from the 80's with monsters, prison planets, sky battles and a host of fun, colorful characters. It's a big universe with a huge story arc and we're ecstatic to introduce it to the world with this first installment,'" said Abbess.
THE OSIRIS CHILD is produced by Matthew Graham, Brett Thornquest, Sidonie Abbene and Abbess via their Storm Alley and Eclectik Vision banners, in association with Phonetic Images and executive produced by Steven Matusko. The producing team previously collaborated on Infini and Terminus and most recently the upcoming thriller Better Watch Out.
RLJ Entertainment's Ward and Jess De Leo negotiated the deal with XYZ Film's Co-Founder Nate Bolotin on behalf of the filmmakers.

Photographing Water Voles
I came across this tame(r) blackbird recently, and the light was rubbish but it was feeding not far in front of me and I got a few ok shots.
It did briefly pose still, close and in a more interesting pose, but as I went to press the shutter a sparrowhawk came from nowhere and scared it off!

I have over 35 years' experience at a senior level in the culture, arts and museum sector, with a passionate belief that arts, museums, heritage and culture can have a positive impact on people's lives. What drives me is the potential of culture as a creative force that measurably affects people and brings them together in dialogue and debate.
I have a wide range of experience across national, university, independent and local authority museums, and in cultural planning and public art management in regeneration areas aimed at developing community cohesion. I have an excellent network of contacts across the cultural, museum and arts sector.
An independent consultant since 2009, I have delivered projects and strategies for local authorities, national and independent museums, arts organizations, private foundations and community trusts. I have worked on organizational change, strategy development, developing community consultation and participation, and cultural planning, including managing public art programmes, empty shop projects, and creative cultural engagement in regeneration projects.
Clients have included Paul Hamlyn Foundation (Project Director of Our Museum: Communities and Museums as Active Partners); Association of Science and Discovery Centres (consultant on Explore Your Universe 4 participatory programme); Shambellie House Trust (Project Organiser to develop the house for workshops and residential courses on photography, arts/crafts. history, environment and wildlife); the Wordsworth Trust (interpretation strategy); Amgueddfa Cymru/National Museum Wales (critical friend); Stretch Widening Participation (evaluation); Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council and Creativity Works (cultural planning, public art, empty shop projects); Lincolnshire One Venues (young people's participation); and Birmingham Museums Trust (organisational change to embed participation).
I developed and directed the largest ever programme of organisational change in museums for the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. Our Museum: Communities and Museums as Active Partners facilitated organisational change to embed community participation across museums and galleries in the United Kingdom. As part of that programme, I worked with Belfast Exposed, Bristol Culture, Glasgow Museums, Hackney Museum, The Lightbox in Woking, the Museum of East Anglian Life, National Museum Wales, Ryedale Folk Museum, and Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums (see www.ourmuseum.org.uk for details, final reports, and 200+ multimedia resources). I developed an influencing strategy to stimulate change across the UK museum sector, working with all the key strategic sector agencies and funders.
Through the work for the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, I have also worked with the National Trust and museum networks in the Netherlands, Belgium and Hungary to help them find innovative and practical ways of embedding participatory practice.
Previously, as Deputy (and Acting) Director of Manchester Museum, one of the UK's biggest multidisciplinary university museums, I was responsible for strategy, fundraising and policy development, and the development and leadership of a team of over 100 specialist staff covering all aspects of museum work. I have particular expertise in team building and development of staff, introducing innovative methods of workforce development to change cultures and behaviours and unlock creativity and potential. I was also Professor of Archaeology and Museology at the University of Manchester, and Chair of the North West Federation of Museums and Galleries, leading its radical strategic programme for the north-west, Rethinking the Museum (www.nwfed.org.uk/thinkpieces).
Before that, I worked at National Museums Liverpool as Head of Antiquities, and facilitated the initial development of the Liverpool Arabic Festival, now a major annual event. My background is in archaeology, particularly of the Middle East and Egypt, on which I have published widely. I also write on ethical issues, and have an international profile as a practitioner and researcher on the theme of cultural institutions sharing authority with communities.

It was my pleasure this week to interview Kim Faulks, author of the Fire and Ice series, the Immortal Destiny series, and more.
If you have any questions, or would like to make a comment, please feel free to do so. We love author/reader interaction here!
And remember, to subscribe to our newsletter in the sidebar to the right to receive first hand news about special promotions and great deals in your inbox. Small hint, there's a promotional event coming in less than a week.
Hi Kim, thank you for taking the time to chat with us today.
Please tell us about yourself.
Thank you so much for having me here Elianne. I love the site, it looks amazing. I'm an Aussie girl who grew up on a farm in New South Wales, then moved to Queensland when I was an adult and had a family of my own. I have two teenagers and a husband who works away. We spend as much time together as we can when he's home. I love Australia. The ruggedness and raw landscape really speaks to me and I take any chance to go camping, fishing or four-wheel driving to experience a little more.
On a personal note, could you tell us a story (or some random fun facts) about you that we wouldn't otherwise know?
Oh, okay. Lol. I hated cats, until I got one of my own. Now, I couldn't imagine my life without my black beauty. I read a lot of self-help books and I'm always working on my self-esteem. I worked full-time most of my life until about six months ago when I decided to take a chance and make myself happy for once, call it mid-life crisis…lol. My weakness is chinese food and I always cook when I'm happy. I have a weird sense of humor, fart jokes are a constant in our house (and no, I won't pull your finger). We laugh, a lot and I adore every day we spend together.
We all know how time-consuming writing can be. How does your family feel about your writing?
They are really supportive, they tend to interrupt me constantly, but it's only because they want to be together. So, I'll get up early to get some word count done. Family is more important than writing and I love early mornings anyway.
Considering the "sexy times" in some of your stories, do you get any of your family or close friends read them? How do you feel about that? How do they?
No, my husband has read some and wondered where the 'research' has come from. But generally no..lol.
Is there a certain type of scene that's harder for you to write than others? Love? Action? Racy?
Um, some sex scenes, but mostly contemporary is the hardest for me to write. I need the action and the dark scenes to move the story along. I've always been drawn to the hard to write, or read storylines. I'll tackle those things that others usually fear or shy away from. I like to strip away the layers, especially to my own soul, how else are we to understand what makes us tick?
What inspires you to write? Is there a specific place, person or thing that makes the words flow from your soul to your keyboard?
Mostly it's the need to be heard, for my thoughts and feelings to matter to others, so I create a word, a story or a sequence of events that's going to make the most impact.
What has been your single most rewarding/exciting experience as an author?
I think scaring the hell out of my author and best friend, Eden. It's always my goal to make her sleep with the lights on. Then, I know I've done a good job.
How about the opposite? What has been your most horrifying experience while writing?
The self-doubt, the constant drive to juggle what I love to write and what actually sells. That's the quickest way to kill that spark inside you. You have to guard it fiercely.
Your latest release, Beast, looks very intense. If you could choose Hollywood actors to play the lead roles, who would you choose for the hero and heroine, and why?
Oh, um for my female role I'd have Elizabeth Gillies and for the Beast I'd say Jonathan Rhys Meyers for sure. He has the right smoldering look.
Can you share an excerpt of your upcoming book, or recently released one?
"Nala changed your clothing, that's all. No one else has touched you. I promise."
I wrenched my gaze up and snarled. "You drugged me."
He nodded and sadness clouded his eyes. "We had to. I'm sorry, Belle. You would never have come with us if we didn't."
Come with us? "Where am I?"
I waited for him to answer and for the fog to clear. Both took their time. Mark stared at the wall, unwilling to meet my eyes. "Before I say anything else, I want to tell you a story."
I could feel the corded muscles in my neck bulge. "You want to tell me a fucking story, Mark? Tell me where you've taken me? Tell me how to get out of this place. Tell me where my damn clothes are!"
My arms and legs still felt heavy, but fear made me move. I slid from the bed, keeping one eye on my captor. My feet hit the wooden floor. The room was small and dirty. Thin strips of peeling paint hung from the ceiling overhead. I stumbled to the window.
The derelict room was made colder by the crowding trees and bleak winter sky. White wisps of fog lingered, forcing me to squint to see towering trunks which hemmed me in. Behind me, Mark kept talking in soothing tones that reminded me of my therapist. I gripped the chipped window frame and pushed my body against the glass, straining to see as far left as I could. A waving green ocean of pine needles was all I could see. I wrenched my head to the right. There had to be a way out somehow.
Mark's droning voice dragged me into the room. I couldn't take anymore. I couldn't stand the noise. "Shut up. Why can't you just shut up?"
I wasn't that girl who cried, or played dumb, leaving others to pave their way in this world. I was the loner, the soldier. I was the survivor. But as the green sea wavered outside the window, I realized I was none of those things now.
I was a captive.

How can you not appreciate the design of this retro streamlined racing motorcycle from GrabCAD Community member Han Chien? The retro design features rounded covers for the front and rear wheels, aerodynamically improved fork and transparent fairing showing all the details of a V6 engine.
This eye-catching drone was designed by the team at CGPdesign using SOLIDWORKS 2017.
Plier Set
A good set of pliers can be a pretty indispensable tool for most engineers. GrabCAD member Ersin designed this tool using SOLIDWORKS 2015.
Folding Chair
A very creative design for a folding chair by Diogo Derli using SOLIDWORKS.
Diving Bell
A diving bell used for deep sea exploration designed in SOLIDWORKS by Hans de Ridder.
Wheel Loader
This wheel loader, which is used on construction sites, was designed in SOLIDWORKS 13 and rendered using KeyShot 7.
Medieval Crane
A very novel design for a medieval crane using SOLIDWORKS by Mohamed Ali khedr.
Artistically Crafted Ring
This customized promise ring was designed in Rhino by Shagufta Shah.
Mechanical Spider
We thought this mechanical robot spider design that started off a sketch from a piece of paper by DEN SHP was pretty cool.
Here are some other benefits of being a member of the GrabCAD Community.

"We've always been shameless about stealing great ideas," Steve Jobs said in a 1994 interview.
Well, one Florida man is going out of his way to prove this is literally the case, claiming Apple infringed upon the hand-drawn patents for his "Electronic Reading Device."
Thomas Ross has filed a lawsuit against the tech giant for in excess of $10 billion and a royalty of up to 1.5 percent on Apple's worldwide sales, alleging the iPhone, iPad, and iPod infringe upon his 1992 invention of an ERD.
Between May 23, 1992 and September 10, 1992, Ross designed three hand-drawn technical drawings of the device, primarily consisting of flat rectangular panels with rounded corners that he claims "embodied a fusion of design and function in a way that never existed prior".
Ross applied for a utility patent to protect his invention in November 1992, but the application was declared abandoned in April 1995 by the US Patent and Trademark Office after he failed to pay the required application fees—a potentially costly error.
The plaintiff claims that he continues to experience "great and irreparable injury that cannot fully be compensated or measured in money", he has demanded a jury trial. We're not holding our breath.

Hey everyone! I would really like you to publish some ideas for my inventive identify. I'll describe myself and what I would like and you inform me what you've come up with. Initially I'm a graphic designer, I'm 18 and very creative and kooky. I need this identify to be brief, artistic, kooky as well, and design or art related. You should use different languages however solely spanish, english and french, that are the ones I communicate. In a sociogram, the central character(s) is positioned on the center of the web page, and the opposite characters are placed around him/her. The spatial relationship on the web page ought to ultimately symbolize each of the character's relationship with the main character, as well as with each other.
Whether you need to embellish your private fabrics or it is for industrial purpose, there are numerous other ways to decorate clothes. You can also purchase your personal prepared to use embellished clothes or accent from any procuring outlet.
I posted the same query twice, as soon as as a correct query and the identical as a discussion board simply because generally my questions get deleted here in hubpages. I do know myself more than enough and that is why I described myself so you possibly can come up with ideas. In fact I am not going to take the names anyone offers me; it's only for inspiration which is what artist do. I selected my inventive title on my own with concepts I already had; I just wished to know what everybody thought. So In the event you completed judging, thank you to your put up and don't bother to answer.
The upside of that is that you really do start looking at on a regular basis subjects with new eyes, the draw back is that you will feel somewhat embarrassed at occasions as people are likely to surprise why you are crawling on the ground photographing bins or whatever your theme might be!
If creative design is not your factor, you possibly can nonetheless read this. The following pointers are for those who want to embellish fabrics on their own as a diy mission. These are a number of the things it's best to keep in mind before beginning your embellish craft.
Moreover, for the reason that number of quotations is as much as every student, you can then flip this activity to a casual/formal character evaluation and justification task. The students may very well be required to share their line selections and clarify why those traces are important to the character at hand What can we be taught from/in regards to the character? How would the exclusion of those strains have an effect on the character/play? Why are these traces more vital than (another set of line).

Of the two hour-long pieces that make up this two-disc set, "Mosquito" is clearly the more approachable. Revolving, for the most part, around a simple repeated bass ostinato, eighth-note cymbal pattern and percussion overlay that is paradoxically cluttered yet open, Abrahams is the most actively explorative, layering fragile free lines over a gentle wash of chords. The dynamics of the piece are so subtle that they creep up almost without warning, with a stronger bottom end developing about halfway through. And although the music is not about soloing in any conventional sense, Abrahams' improvisations gently dominates the first thirty minutes of the piece, while Buck's activity increases in the second half, providing additional contrast and interest. But at the end of the day, "Mosquito" is more about a vibe, a hypnotic trance-like ambience, than it is about traditional concepts like rhythm and harmony. Still, there is gentle movement on both fronts; an ebb and flow that make for a curiously engaging listen.
"See Through," on the other hand, is almost completely devoid of any such conventional conceits. There is precedence in some of Brian Eno's ambient worksspecifically the extended pieces Thursday Afternoon and Neroli. But whereas Eno typically aims to create something that become part of one's overall aural landscape, it's hard to ignore "See Through." With a darker, more extreme intention, the piece utilizes disconcerting gaps of silence or near-silencesometimes lasting upwards of four minutesto break up the more static texture. Abrahams, again, creates a gentle layer of piano, but this time the mood is more ominous. Over a continuous cymbal roll that ultimately transforms into a seemingly endless drum roll kept low enough in the mix so as not to dominate, Swanton alternates between deeply resonant notes and higher-end arco playing that, despite its rhythmic insistence, fails to give the piece any real sense of movementalthough, paradoxically, there is an undeniable feeling of urgency.
If "Mosquito" is successful in creating a congenial, relaxed ambience, the other piece's sense of purpose seems to be in enervating the listener. Perhaps the audio equivalent of director David Lynch's Eraserhead, a film which demonstrated the power of cinema even as it completely unnerved its audience, The Necks may be all about the incredible power and evocative potential of music. And while that does not always translate into a pleasurable experience, it does make for a unique one.

Thoughts on Hiring a Healthcare Simulation Technology Specialist
During an email list-serv conversation for the Gathering of Healthcare Simulation Technology Specialists, I noticed James Cypert from CalBaptist had an insightful response when a fellow GHOSTS subscriber asked the community:
"I am in the process of hiring a simulation technician and was wondering if other centers had any novel techniques (i.e. diagnose a broken task trainer) for interviewing/ screening candidates and their aptitude for work in this field?"
James' response starts below:
Sponsored Content:
I do not have a novel way per se. But I do have a recommendation that may benefit everyone. In a discussion with some of the local facilities in the area, and my introduction to them stimulated some discussion in this very area. Apparently, many people have been having discussions about whether technicians should have a strong medical background, (EMT, etc.), or should they have a strong technical background. (Continue reading by clicking the "Read more" link below.)
I informed them that the entire debate seemed to be missing the target entirely. We are not in the medical industry or the technical industry, we are in the education industry. I would not hire an EMT just because they had medical experience, nor would I hire a computer technician. I would seek out someone who has an education background, and does not look at you confused when you speak of pedagogy. Preferably an individual who like me has spent years learning technology or experience with it, and has instructed others in its use.
You do not want to hire a glorified IT computer technician. Most do not have the personality traits required for the task. I know this personally because I have been training computer technicians for the last 20 years. I would also not say that medical experience automatically qualifies you either.
Sponsored Content:
If I were in need of hiring a simulation technician right now this is how I would approach it.
First I would search out and recruit from a pool of technicians that also had experience as instructors in the technical industry. I would treat my interview much like I would for a faculty. I would simply tell the candidates to prepare a 15 minute lesson plan and presentation explaining some technical thing. Perhaps something as simple as using the mouse, or keyboard shortcuts, or explain how the internet works, or networking. The individual that can explain those things in a coherent and understandable way will be your best candidate.
The reason for this approach is two fold. First you will know the individual can assimilate technical instructions, and will have a deeper understanding of technology. You also know that they will be able to communicate well with you faculty and will be able to train them effectively, while also understanding what education is about.
In my opinion you do not need a computer geek, mostly because most computer geeks are socially awkward and have difficulty with interpersonal relationships. You do not need a person from the medical industry because they many times conflict with faculty on the medical side. You do need a person with a comprehensive understanding of education and technology. This is typically only found in technical instructors, who are computer geeks that have a strong ability in interpersonal communication, as well as the dynamics of education and appropriate pedagogy.
Hiring in this way allows faculty to be the content experts, and for the technician to be the technology and delivery expert. On a personal note I was hired two years ago at California Baptist University School of Nursing. I have no medical background, but I have a Bachelor's in Information Technology, and am considered a computer geek. The difference with me is that I was also a Technology Instructor for 20 years, and I know how to communicate complicated information to others.
I would seek out the following types of individuals
- High interpersonal relationship skills
- High technical knowledge and skills
- Education industry background (technical trainer, technical writer)
- Alternatively you could seek out a person who experience as a Systems Analyst, mostly because they have experience communicating highly technical information to stakeholders. So part of their job is as a liason between IT and decision makers who have no technical background.
- Ask questions that are pertinent to technology expertise and depth, there ability to communicate, and their ability to learn and teach others.
I hope this helps and does not offend anyone. Deogratias."

Sawatari Goro now works at Akado High School as a vice principal. Although the head director of the school board speficically orders him to handle the problematic class 3-D, the students are just too much for him. So Sawatari goes far away to a southern island to search for Yankumi, and convince her to work for Akado. Yankumi accepts the offer, only to find that her class (again) is full of punks, where two rival groups of students are always at each other's throats. Will Yankumi's strong belief in students and teaching work this time?

Fight Oh..OH!
Story - Gokusen is Gokusen. Nothing changed. Yankumi teaches trouble-causing students and they change for the better. It's still not boring though! Even if the plot was the same, there's something in this drama that doesnt bore you at all. I still LOVE it. I live the fact that they insert moral values in this drama.
Acting -
Nakama Yukie(Yankumi) - Always in character! She's a gooodie teacher when she has to and gangster when she has to too. I really really like her~~ XD
Takaki Yuya - Anot't her jpop idol in the drama. XD. Very impressed with his voice~~ his sang the insert song. But his acting didn't make up for it. Don't get me wrong! He's good but I'm not just satisfied yet. Just good.
Miura Haruma - The reason why I like this drama. :X He's soo good and hot :)). I couldn't stop watching because of him~ I love love him
Ishiguro Hideo - Kengo! His appearance was noticeable~~unlike the rest of the crew(except Ogata and Kazama which are the main characters). Very GOOD!
Rest of the crew and 3-D - All of their presence made a difference in this drama! Very nice! Especially the guy who loves eating :))
Waki Tomohiro - Cute as always :D. He's acting just got better :D
Music- Most of the music were from the old Gokusen's. But that's OK. The theme song and the insert song changed :D. It completes the scenes. :D

Ryan has been attending classes for about 5 years. We love it here because there is a flexible class schedule, we come up to 4 days a week but it doesn't have to be the set same days of the week, and I can work out while he is taking class. He can take Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or mixed martial arts. We love it as well because all of the instructors are supportive and the make the classes fun.

One60 Elgin Street Redevelopment
Client: H&R Reit
With: Petroff Partnership Architects
Completion: In Development
Quinn Design Associates is working closely with Petroff Architects and the City of Ottawa to redevelop the ground plane of this significant Class A office tower in conjunction with a significant interior redevelopment. Starting with the desire to update the paving at the main building entry, the project expanded to include the entire perimeter of the site. Since the majority of the site perimeter is on City of Ottawa lands and has suffered from a series of serious subsidence and displacement over time, close collaboration between all parties has been required to achieve the goals of both the City and the Client, and to ensure that the new streetscape paving and planted areas are attractive, stable, safe, and low maintenance into the future.
