GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Andrew Wiggins held the ball above his head and screamed in desperation.
With the game on the line in the final minutes of No. 19 Florida's 67-61 win over No. 13 Kansas on Tuesday night, his teammates had abandoned him on the baseline, nearly prompting a turnover on the inbound pass before Frank Mason rescued him.
That moment was a metaphor for this entire troubling start. Wiggins can't overcome Kansas' weaknesses alone. Even if he could walk on water – and he was otherworldly in his definitive 26-point, 11-rebound, two-block performance -- the rules wouldn't let him pass to himself.
The Jayhawks need a combination of a deliberate Wiggins, efficient starters, reserves who make an impact and a defense that protects the paint and the perimeter (the Jayhawks rank seventh in the Big 12 in 3-point field goal percentage defense).
They didn't have that combo in Gainesville. They didn't have it in Boulder, where they lost to Colorado, or at the Battle 4 Atlantis, where they lost to Villanova, either.
"I think it's on everybody," Wiggins said. "No one on the team lets all the pressure or all the negativity go to one person."
Wiggins needs someone, anyone, to ensure that he never goes another five minutes without a touch in the middle of an opponent's 21-0 run. He needs someone, anyone, to alert him when Patric Young's gladiator screens are threatening his livelihood. He needs someone, anyone, to recognize that it's not all on him. Can't be.
The Jayhawks made a million mistakes at the O'Connell Center. Well, it felt like a million.
And some of them are extensions of complicated equations for Bill Self.
Freshmen Conner Frankamp and Brannen Greene and sophomore Andrew White III are the top 3-point shooters on the squad. But the Jayhawks take a defensive hit when they play. So how can Self utilize the trio to remedy one of his team's most significant issues (Kansas is eighth in the Big 12 in 3-point shooting) and avoid the defensive quandary that their collective presence presents?
And what about Tarik Black, who averaged 8.1 PPG and 4.8 RPG for Memphis last season? He remade his body after his arrival. He looked the part of a rugged forward who would boost the Jayhawks' frontcourt. But his stats on Tuesday -- two missed shots, three fouls in six minutes -- offered little proof of that. Plus, he hasn't scored in three games.
And how can the Jayhawks attack any zone without more secure ballhandling (Mason, Naadir Tharpe and Wayne Selden Jr. committed 12 of Kansas' 24 turnovers against Florida)?
"If your offense sucks in football, usually you look at the quarterback," Self said. "It doesn't fall on the point guards totally. They can do better but we can all do better. But certainly I don't think our guard play has been very consistent so far."
Self added: "I don't think our guards do anything to help [Wiggins] right now."
Those are problems Self will try to solve in practices, meetings and workouts this week. The solutions will probably involve diagrams, playbooks and basketball jargon that most don't understand.
Most of Kansas' crippling issues, however, are not that complex.
On Tuesday night, Selden wrestled for a critical loose ball in the second half. But someone tried to snatch it from him.
It was Kansas reserve and teammate Landen Lucas.
Selden didn't know it and continued to fight, which led to a traveling violation.
A simple "I got it!" might've worked.
But they didn't talk. Communication was rare throughout the game.
There's just too much silence on this roster. When you can't score for eight-plus minutes, somebody should be yelling at someone for something.
As Florida amassed an 18-point first-half edge, Tharpe seemed as shell-shocked as his freshman teammates. Black missed easy layups. Perry Ellis took three shots the entire night and committed as many turnovers.
Self doesn't have many veterans. That trio is the acting leadership committee of a young squad that needs it. But Black, Tharpe and Ellis weren't the stabilizers they had to be when Florida turned the game with that stunning run.
Add that to the list of problems.
"They don't have anybody they can fall back on," Self said about his freshmen. "I can't blame it all on youth."
The fixable follies diluted one of the most fluid displays of the 2013-14 season. Wiggins looked like a No. 1 pick, especially in the second half.
He has been criticized by many, including me, for his measured assertiveness. But that wasn't an issue Tuesday.
He did everything he could. He stopped shots at the rim. He ran around screens and defended multiple Gators. He finished strong and gave Kansas a chance in the final minutes when he hit three consecutive 3s and a pair of free throws.
It wasn't enough. And it will never be enough if the Jayhawks fail to address future deficits as a group.
A five-game stretch off-campus certainly didn't help.
But upcoming home games against Georgetown and San Diego State (the Jayhawks will also face New Mexico in Kansas City on Saturday) remain on KU's nonconference slate. Those tests could alleviate or compound the problems.
"We're the only school in America that doesn't play any home games for a month in a BCS conference. And that's my fault," Self said. "The schedule doesn't lend itself to getting some confidence by winning some games where you don't have to play great. I think a lot of it is confidence more than anything else."
After the Florida loss, Wiggins left the locker room and exchanged hugs and handshakes with some acquaintances. His team's sports information director, Chris Theisen, tried to hurry him toward a spot so he could respond to questions that lack answers right now. But he took his time before he settled into his position.
I asked him about his team's limited energy in the first half against the Gators. The Jayhawks dug holes in losses to Villanova and Colorado, too.
But Wiggins disagreed with my assessment.
"We did [come out with energy]," he said. "We came out and it was 10-3, I think. I don't know what happened. They just went on a run. The game of basketball is full of runs."
In that brief Q&A, Wiggins' disheartened demeanor conveyed the frustration of an 18-year-old who stars on a team that's aware of its potential, but still searching for a path to reach it.
As reporters surrounded him and the questions about his team's third loss in four games continued, maybe Wiggins wanted to yell and flee that dark hallway.
But he stood there and endured the pressure alone.

Awesome dress came earlier than expected
Awesome dress came earlier than expected, happy about that. It fits perfectly a little tight in some places (almost in between a small and medium). I ordered a medium, that's what I usually order. Overall love it
Perfect Club Dress
I LOVE this dress!!!! Great club dress! For sure a head turner.
This dress is beautiful, and great quality for the price
This dress is beautiful, and great quality for the price. I bought this dress for work and have gotten many compliments. The dress fits loosely; I am 5'5, 145 pounds and the Medium fit perfectly for work. (I think a small would have fit, too, but probably would have been too clingy for work.) The dress also seems to be non-stain. Naturally, the very first time I wore this dress I managed to spill coffee on it, but another bonus is that the dress is machine washable, and the coffee came right out! I will definitely buy more from this company.
Lovely dress!
Loved it! Was cheaper than $2! Slayed it in Vegas! And I HATE the colors pink and green! But it was a cute dress....Thank you!
Very Happy

Case Study: Arnanda Abbey
Arnanda Abbey
Arnada Abbey is an Anglican missional church in the Vancouver, Washington neighborhood. They take an ancient-future approach to their faith and community living practices. Their emphasis on social kindness includes giving residence to those with housing needs in various buildings, running an electric bike company called Eco Mopeds, and offering assistance to those in who need it.
I developed a WordPress based site for the Abbey. Visually, their site has a very contrasted, color-popping scheme in addition to highly detailed graphic features. Every last arrow, button, background and icon is very stylized to fit the branded aesthetic that I created for the site. It has an aged, nearly rustic look that is brought to life in a clean, modern structure. There are many elements of historical Christian icons that I was able to tie into the design, as well as black-and-white imagery and custom designed featured graphics. The header incorporates an image slider that is linked to the key information pages on the site. When the navigation links are hovered over, a line appears over the highlighted section to give it a subtle emphasis. The front page itself is organized into a grid layout with each section using both uniform and contrasting colors to really make each item stand out. The content is set up to easily be updated by the Abbey in a modified WordPress setting.

Hi! Summer is almost ending and it's time to recap some favorite short explorations that I do to jazz up my life while keeping up with a busy schedule. I had just gone to a shopping mall and then I thought, it's such a nice afternoon and the highway leads all the way to Ericeira, I don't go there for a long time, why not? It was such a nice experience! Come find out about this fishermen town more known nowadays for the good surfing conditions!
Ericeira is located in the Mafra municipality, about 50 Km northeast of Lisbon. It is easily reachable by car on A8 and A21 highways, or by bus from Campo Grande bus station by the local bus company Mafrense. The fishing history dates back from the 13th century and in the 19th century this was the most important port of the Lisbon area, providing supplies to all the region. From the Ericeira port also departed to the exile in Brazil the Portuguese Royal Family upon the Republican Revolution in 1910.
This has been as well for long a very popular tourist destination due to the calm beaches close to the port and picturesque white and blue houses, while the beaches to the north of Ericeira, Ribeira d'Ilhas and Ribamar, are more wavy and good surfing destinations. I am no surf expert by any means, never tried it, so this walk focused on the main village and calm beaches.
Just a word of caution: regardless of the weather in Lisbon being super hot and dry, bring a light coat always. It gets VERY WINDY here!
The first thing I did was stroll around the multiple beaches: Santo António, Algodio and Pescadores. It's quite enjoyable. Also you get to pass through the fishermen port and photograph all the cute boats.
Already up to the village, some nice details are "Hotel de Turismo da Ericeira", a huge hotel from the 19th century that now belongs to a well known hotel chain in Portugal, the old churches and chapels, all the blue and white houses and the theater and public library. It feels so dreamy walking around the streets before the center that are not so crowded.
In the main streets at sunset the village has a lot of life and cute restaurants and cafés. We sat for a while in Kfé to eat bread with hummus (not very typical right? but I absolute adore hummus and try to eat it every time I can) to soak in the sunset life and then headed back to the car. When going back, we passed through a very nice viewpoint where the most stunning red sun was setting.
Hope this post gave you some inspiration to go enjoy a stunning sunset in somewhere beatiful close to you! Or to explore Ericeira if you're around Portugal of course.
What are your favorite spots to view the sunset? Let me know!

Mobile casino bonuses are fantastic – they let you try out more games, play for longer, and even take bigger risks, safe in the knowledge you won't be paying the price if something goes horribly wrong. Unfortunately, the majority of online and mobile casinos come with one pretty big catch: wagering requirements.
Wagering requirements are the bane of the lives of many bonus hunting casino players, who are sick of having to keep playing with their bonus winnings, even when they want to withdraw them. That's why we decided to put this list together of all the best mobile accessible casinos which have low (or no) wagering requirements, meaning you can keep most of, if not all, of what you win from claiming welcome bonuses and other promotions.
The casinos listed below are ordered from least to most generous low wagering requirement, with a couple of casinos at the end listed, which have low or no wagering requirements at all! Check them out here!
6. Ladbrokes Casino
Ladbrokes is a name that has been synonymous with gambling for well over 100 years (serious, it's true, do some research), but unlike your grandad trying to work out how to use an iPad, this old-timer's online presence is something to behold. Ladbrokes has subsections on its website for anything you might want to indulge in, from casino games and bingo to slots and sports betting; it was even one of the first sites to introduce live dealer tables.
Among all these different ways to play, the mobile casino offering at Ladbrokes is one of the most extensive you'll find, and the icing on the cake of the welcome offer which allows you to claim up to £500 from a 100% deposit bonus. Best of all? This welcome bonus is subject to a tiny wagering requirement of only 10x! That means you've got a great chance of keeping a bunch of that generous bonus.
5. Guts Casino
Guts Casino has garnered a lot of attention over the last couple of years, thanks in part to its NetEnt heavy games roster and huge promotions which run pretty much constantly. So what's going on with the casino's wagering requirements? Well, if you deposit funds which are subject to a deposit bonus, you're going to have to wager your bonus cash through 35x before you can withdraw it.
Yeah, I know what you're thinking; 35x is the industry standard, that's hardly a low wagering requirement. Well, you'd be right, but you'll notice I didn't say that was true for all bonuses – only deposit bonuses. When it comes to extra spins, however, things are very, very different. Winnings from extra spins at Guts are subject to zero wagering requirements, meaning if you win £200 from a bunch of bonus extra spins, you'll be able to withdraw £200 right away.
4. BGO Casino
BGO Casino was originally simply a lowly bingo site, until it pulled itself up by the bootstraps, and relaunched itself as a fully functional online and mobile casino. Now, with the help of the catchy 'Beat the Boss' branding, as well as celebrity endorsements from the likes of Vern (Remember Me From Austin Powers) Troyer, Dan (World's Biggest Douchebag) Bilzerian and Paris (Why Am I Famous?) Hilton, its profile is among the highest of any casino online today.
Despite its fame, one of the lesser recognised aspects of BGO which players love is its generous wagering requirements setup, where players are able to walk away with the majority of their bonus winnings far more often than at your average casino. Before you're able to withdraw your winnings, they're subject to a staggeringly low 5x wagering requirement!
3. PlayOJO Casino
PlayOJO is a relatively young casino, and certainly the most recent to launch on this list along, but its youth doesn't mean that PlayOJO doesn't know about how to look after its players; indeed it demonstrates in a number of ways how well it knows to look after its players. Firstly, there's the hundreds of great games from top developers, then there's the huge promotions and welcome bonuses, and then, of course, there's the fact that none of those bonuses are subject to any wagering requirements.
That's right, no wagering requirements what so ever. For instance, when you first sign up to PlayOJO and make a deposit of over £10, you'll be rewarded with up to 50 extra spins. You're able to claim 1 extra spin for every £1 you deposit. When you use these extra spins, you'll then be able to keep every single penny you win!
2. PocketWin Casino
PocketWin is one of the three casinos brought to us by InTouch Games, which anyone familiar with the company will know means that each and every one of the games titles you're going to find to play at PocketWin is totally exclusive and unique to the casino. While dozens of games you won't find anywhere else might be enough to tempt you to most casinos, PocketWin has another trump card in the form of its wagering requirements, i.e. there aren't any.
When you first sign up, you'll be able to claim a £5 welcome bonus and a 100% deposit bonus, and once you've won some cash with even just one game with this bonus cash, you're going to be able to withdraw right away. This lack of wagering requirements on these generous bonuses makes PocketWin one of the most profitable sites for bonuses online today.
1. mFortune Casino
It goes almost without saying that mFortune Casino is pretty much the granddaddy of low and no wagering casinos, having been one of the trailblazers making offering no wagering requirements a thing. It's in the same family as PocketWin, meaning that it too has all unique and exclusive games content, but having been around a few years longer than its younger counterpart, this means even more and better games on offer.
mFortune too has a £5 deposit free welcome bonus, as well as a 100% deposit welcome bonus, on top of which it offers a 10% bonus on top of all subsequent deposits. And guess what? None of those bonuses are subject to any form of wagering requirements, making it possible to withdraw your winnings straight away! If you're looking for a good deal on wagering requirements, mFortune is it.

BBB tips to help parents protect their children from identity thieves
Parents tend to take plenty of precautions when trick-or-treating with their child. However, it's important to consider an aspect to their safety that isn't always seen—their identity.This Halloween, Better Business Bureau (BBB) serving Central, Coastal, Southwest Texas and the Permian Basin wants to remind parents to begin monitoring their child's credit report today.
Identity thieves often steal Social Security numbers, attach a different name and birth date to it, and proceed to open credit cards, secure auto loans, student loans and even home mortgages. According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), several signs can tip you off to the fact that someone is using your child's personal information and committing fraud. For example, you or your child might:
- be turned down for government benefits because the benefits are being paid to another account using your child's Social Security number
- get a notice from the IRS saying the child didn't pay income taxes, or that the child's Social Security number was used on another tax return
- get collection calls or bills for products or services you didn't receive
Children are easy targets because they typically do not start using their information until early adulthood when applying for college and search for loans or their first credit cards. That's why it's so important to start monitoring your child's credit report as early as possible.
As a parent, you can protect your child's identity by:
- Safeguarding your child's personal information. Keep your child's personal information, such as his or her Social Security card, date of birth and birth certificate, in a secure spot.
- Monitoring your child's credit report. As soon as you get your child's Social Security card you should start monitoring his or her report at least once a year. Request a free credit report from annualcreditreport.com.
- Keeping anti-virus software updated. Some savvy thieves create viruses designed to search computers for documents containing your child's personal information. Make sure your computer is continually updated with the latest anti-virus software.
- Safely disposing of personal documents. Shred all papers that include your child's personal information before you throw them out and delete computer files that you no longer need.
If your child's credit report shows misused information, call each credit reporting company and alert them to the situation.

While doing background research for my interactive narrative Mixed Greens I met Patrick Gourley. I was looking for old photographs that would help me understand lesbian life in Chicago in the 1950s and early 60s. "I have a whole houseful of photos and objects," said Patrick. He wasn't kidding. He had been a friend and caretaker of two elderly lesbians during the last decade of their lives. He showed me a trove of over 2000 snapshots taken by Norma and Virginia from 1939-1975. When I saw the photos I knew I had to make a film about them. Here were images of lovers and friends as they played, posed, worked, partied, drank, and aged. Norma and Virginia had left an amazing historical treasure.
Snapshots are the way we write our autobiography. Now we all take selfies, but Norma and Virginia used a Brownie camera to tell the story of their community holiday feasts in rented halls, a faithful group of friends serially switching partners, and lesbians holding hands in the crowded parks of Chicago.
The photographs haunt me. As a young lesbian I knew women like Norma and Virginia. I was self-righteous and felt contempt for their butch/femme life. They lived in the closet, I proudly didn't. However, the way Norma and Virginia lived and documented their lives complicates my idea of the closet. Assimilation comes at a price. I live a mainstreamed life in a different world – my partner and I can marry if we choose. We have gained so much, yet I am learning some things were lost. As I came out in the early 70s this community was slipping away, changed forever by second wave Feminism and Stonewall. I won't let it disappear forever. These lesbian lives and the history they lived are too important.

1964 Morris Minor Pick up Full WRCC build..
This is not a light restoration or refurbishment with a bit of new paint and some filler this is a full "Nut and bolt" restoration of a 1964 Morris Minor LCV, that we are currently in the process of completing here at WRCC..
If you are looking for "THE BEST" there is available on the market, then this must be somewhere near to that, with no expense spared in its preparation or the build process.
The works carried out are listed to follow and although I have tried to be as comprehensive as possible, I will still miss something, so contact and viewing is advised.
initially we took the Pick up on from a client as a paid restoration, it was in a very sorry state, but on finding out he was very ill asked if we could purchase and restore to WRCC standard and find a loving home for her.
1. The pick up was brought into the workshop and stripped to the last nut and bolt.
2. A new UK made chassis was purchased to sit her on, we regarded this would be the best for a build of this quality, it was then body guard protected and painted with 2 coats of chassis paint.
3. The axle casings and suspension components were sand blasted, and painted with chassis paint.
4. The newly refinished components were fitted to the chassis with New springs, Bushes and all new fixings.
5. The Diff was checked, bearings replaced and painted.

7. The fuel tank was cleaned up pressure tested, and refinished with new sender and fuel line.
8. The engine 1098cc was removed, crank reground, head converted for unleaded an reconditioned and new bearings fitted (basically the engine was fully reconditioned!)
9. The ribbed case box was also removed taken apart checked and reassembled with all parts required, bearings and seals replaced.
10. Both the above were refitted with new mounts, and new clutch between them.
11. The cab and the body were sent away and sand blasted, back to bare metal.
12. Both the cab, tub & Tailgate were fully refurbished using all heritage panels at a cost of over £6k, not only rotten/ damaged panels were replaced they all were!
13. The cab, back panel, doors, tub and tailgate have been painstakingly filled and had a super bare metal refinish in our inhouse body shop (if you were paying us to do this it would be £4k+).
14. The full interior has been stripped out and a "FULL" newton commercial interior fitted including, fully reconditioned seats (in tobacco leaf) , glove box liners, door cards, carpets, head liner and insulation.
15. The Truck has had a new wiring loom fitted as well all other electrical components, with new battery.
16. The engine bay is "show" standard with all new powder coated components, a new electronic fuel pump is fitted, the SU carb has had a reconditioning kit fitted.
17. A new dual core radiator and all new hoses / fixings have also been fitted.
18. A set of Brand new powder coated 5.5" wide Weller steel wheels (costing £500) come with the truck and will be fitted, with 4 new tyres as well as powder coated spare and tyre.
1000's of painstaking hours, have been put into this truck to ensure that it is in better condition when it leaves us than it was when it left the Morris Motor company!
Any potential owner that is genuinely interested in owning her is more than welcome to call and ask questions about the build or visit our workshop and meet us / ask questions (the kettle is always on!).

Artificial Sand Making Plant
Nowadays artificial sand is widely used in highway construction, concrete making, and relevant construction fields. Due to the gradual shortage of natural sand resources and the booming construction industry, machine-made artificial sand becomes even more popular in the market . Various types of rocks can be processed into sand including granite, natural river pebbles, basalt, limestone and so on.
Artificial Sand Making Process:
The raw material is fed regularly by the vibrating feeder to the primary jaw and secondary jaw/cone crusher for crushing. The crushed material is then transported by belt conveyor to the following vibrating screen for separation. Proper sizes (usually there would be an upper limit for different model of sand making machinery) would be transported to the sand making machine directly, while unrequired materias will be returned to the secondary jaw/cone crusher for repeated crushing until getting required sizes. The crushed material from the sand making machine will be transported to/ returned to the vibrating screen for final separation. Required sand size product would be returned to the sand washing machine for clearance, and then retained as final product. Unrequested product will be returned to the sand making machine for repeated crushing until getting all required size. We can provide professional solutions to different capacity requirement.

Tess is an eighty-two-year-old woman living in a care home. She's lonely and nobody ever comes to visit her. Tess's son lives in Australia and even though they call each other regularly, they haven't seen one another in years. Tess's life hasn't been easy and she still has so much to say. When Sandra starts working at the home, there's finally someone who listens. Sandra is more than just Tess's carer, she likes the older woman and they become friends. Tess is no longer all alone, but what is she hiding?
Tess and Tattoos is a beautiful story. I was immediately intrigued by Tess. She's a woman with a past and it's clear a lot has happened to her. She doesn't have anybody and the kind Sandra is exactly what she needs. Their friendship is impressive and because of Sandra Tess finally starts to open up. I was moved to tears by her story. Tess and Tattoos is poignant and compelling and H.A. Leuschel kept me glued to the pages.
H.A. Leuschel knows exactly how to describe emotions. She doesn't need many pages to tell a complete story, which is a skill I admire. I could easily picture Tess, the home she's living in and the wonderful Sandra. There's a fabulous element of suspense as well because of the life Tess used to live. I was eager to keep reading and loved every single page of the story. Tess and Tattoos is a mesmerizing novella that I couldn't put down.
If you love gripping life stories Tess and Tattoos would be a perfect choice.
Helene Andrea Leuschel grew up in Belgium where she gained a Licentiate in Journalism & Communication, which led to a career in radio and television in Brussels, London and Edinburgh. She now lives with her husband and two children in Portugal and recently acquired a Master of Philosophy with the OU, deepening her passion for the study of the mind. When she is not writing, Helene works as a freelance journalist and teaches Yoga.

Updated December 11, 2018 01 of 10 Getting Started in MovieMaker UPDATE: Windows Movie Maker, now discontinued, was free video editing software. We've left the information below for archive purposes. Try one of these free alternatives instead. If you're new to Windows Movie Maker, creating a photomontage is an easy way to get started. In this project you'll learn your way around Movie Maker, and will end up with a video that's fun to watch and share. To start, collect digital copies of the pictures you're going to use. If the pictures come from a digital camera, or if you already have them scanned and saved on your computer, you're all set. For print photographs, either digitize them at home with a scanner, or take them to a local photo store to have them professionally done. This shouldn't cost too much, and it's worth it if you're dealing with a lot of pictures. Once you have the pictures saved on your computer, open a new project in Movie Maker. From the Capture Video menu, choose Import pictures. 02 of 10 Select Digital Photos to Import A new screen will open, allowing you to browse through and select the photos that you want to use. Click Import to bring the pictures into Movie Maker. 03 of 10 Place Pictures in Timeline After your pictures have been imported into Movie Maker, drag them to the timeline in the order you want them to play. 04 of 10 How Long Should the Pictures Play? By default, Windows Movie Maker sets photos to display for five seconds. You can change the length of time by going to the . 05 of 10 Adjust the Time the Pictures Play In the . 06 of 10 Ease In and Ease Out of Photos Adding slight motion to the pictures gives life to your still photos and enhances their impact. You do this by using MovieMaker's Ease In and Ease Out effects, which slowly zoom in or out of the pictures. You'll find these effects by going to the Edit Movie menu, and choosing View video effects. 07 of 10 Apply Video Effects Apply the effects to the photos by dragging the effect icon and dropping it on the star in the corner of each photo. The star will change from light to dark blue to indicate the effect has been added. 08 of 10 Fade In and Fade Out Most professional videos begin and end with a black screen. It gives a clean beginning and a definite ending to a movie. You can do this for your video by adding the Fade In, From Black icon to the first picture in your video, and the Fade Out, To Black icon to the the last. These effects are located in the View video effects menu. Add them by dragging and dropping, as you did with the Ease In and Ease Out effects. You'll see a double star on the pictures, indicating two effects have been added. 09 of 10 Add Transitions Between the Pictures Adding transition effects between the pictures blends them together, so your video has a smoother flow. In the View video effects menu, under Edit Movie, you'll find lots of different effects, some better than others. You can experiment with different transitions, to find one that gives your photomontage the look you want. I like the Fade effect for its subtlety. It gives a smooth transition between pictures, but doesn't call much attention to itself. Add the transition effects to your video by dragging and dropping them between the pictures. 10 of 10 Finishing Touches Your photomontage is now complete! At this point, you can export it to a DVD, your computer or the web, using the options in the Finish Movie menu. Or, if you want to really liven up the pictures, add some music to the video. It's quick and easy to do. Continue Reading

End-of-life care on agenda as Canadian doctors meet in Calgary
Canadian Medical Association annual meeting runs until Aug. 21
As the Canadian Medical Association meets in Calgary this week, one of the issues doctors are grappling with is end-of-life care.
- CMA poll finds golden years filled with anxiety
- Health Minister Rona Ambrose talks to doctors about family violence
The group of doctors now recommends everyone 18 and older have a dying directive — what used to be known as a living will — to let their loved ones know their dying wishes.
Anna Reid, president of the Canadian Medical Association, said it comes down to doctors providing comfort — their No. 1 priority under the Hippocratic Oath.
"So good palliative care and good advanced directive planning is all about comfort care," she said.
"How do we relieve people's symptoms? How do we make the end part of their life as quality and as meaningful as it can be?"
Seniors strategy wanted, finds poll
CMA members are also discussing how to improve the quality of end-of-life care by keeping palliative patients out of hospital settings longer.
"We know that a lot of the appropriate care that we need to give as seniors get older would be best delivered in the home and in a community setting," she said.
"We don't have actually a good pan-Canadian strategy for how to do that."
A new study shows a vast majority of Canadians want a national health-care strategy for seniors.
Respondents say it would ease the burden hospitals and long-term care facilities must shoulder with an aging baby boomer population. But the poll finds such a strategy would only work with input from all levels of government.
Health minister addresses conference
Federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose said in her first speech to the CMA that efficiencies in the health-care system can be found through new technology.
"There is still a lot left that can be done. I think that is where we can make some gains in the system and I think it's an area where the federal government can take leadership," she said.
Ambrose also said she wants her department to improve dialogue with doctors and nurses.
But most of her speech focused on spousal violence. Ambrose says domestic violence costs the country at least $7.4 billion a year, and $6 billion of that goes to health-care costs.
She said abused spouses are more likely to confide in their physicians than anyone else.

China's Big Brother Internet: Ten essential publications
Google the keywords "Cisco, Falun Gong, lawsuit and China" and you won't get far in our memory-hole society. So here are my best picks for journalists and everyone else. Copy, distribute, and quibble if you like. But read to the last entry, because it's important to accurately reflect history and the collective gathering of evidence. This investigation has never been a silver bullet, but a slow chain reaction. A long time coming perhaps, but be assured that it has now gone critical.
1) The Great Firewall of China
1997: Groundbreaking article on the early efforts to censor the Chinese web written by the only journalists to actually make it inside the PSB: Geremie R. Barme and Sang Ye.
In an equipment-crowded office in the Air Force Guesthouse on Beijing's Third Ring Road sits the man in charge of computer and Net surveillance at the Public Security Bureau.
2) The Anaconda in the Chandelier
2002: Prescient essay on Chinese (and Western) self-censorship by Perry Link.
Normally the great snake doesn't move. It doesn't have to. It feels no need to be clear about its prohibitions. Its constant silent message is "You yourself decide," after which, more often than not, everyone in its shadow makes his or her large and small adjustments–all quite "naturally."
3) Government Counterstrategies
2002: Critical chapter from the RAND publication You've Got Dissent! by Michael S. Chase and James C. Mulvenon which traces the first hacking attacks on North American Falun Gong websites back to China.
The name of the organization, "Information Service Center of XinAn Beijing," sounded innocuous enough, but the street address told a very different story. The address, #14 East Chang'an Street…in Beijing, is that of the Ministry of Public Security, China's internal security service…
Into Thin Airwaves
"All movements—even pocket-protector ones—have their legends and their origin myths, often set in an older, simpler place and time, as is this one. But although he never won a Nobel Prize, the man who died was real. And in 2002, when China experts in the West universally judged that his cause was a failure, he commanded the most successful Falun Gong action ever undertaken on Chinese soil—the hijacking of a massive city's television signals for nearly an hour. Pulled off by a small gang with minimal experience or resources, the operation was strikingly uncharacteristic of Falun Gong at the time, but from it would grow far more sophisticated challenges to Chinese Communist party control over information in the years to come. Television hubs would become Internet routers, guerrillas would be replaced by geeks, infocops and robbers would go virtual, and the brawl would spill out from China into Atlanta, Tehran, and the State Department. But it all started in the city of Changchun with a man named Liang Zhenxing."
Read it here. Over 5000 words, so get comfy.
BIG UPDATE: "Into Thin Airwaves" is being transformed into a graphic novel by one of the most talented artists ever to come out of China: Daxiong! Raised in Changchun, Daxiong actually logged some hours in the same prison cells as Liang and his gang.
Go here for the occasional update on Daxiong's progress.

My Dinner with Chinese Intelligence
"If you are going to read one magazine article today, let it be this one." Tom Ricks, ForeignPolicy.com
The few, the proud, the hacked…
Yahoo's lawyers informed me that there was a security breach in my account just over a month ago. I'm flattered.
Or will it explode?
A dream deferred: The state of the Chinese Internet, June 4, 2009.
Web warriors
The NYT rule: The New York Times seems like an intelligent paper, good writing, comprehensive foreign coverage…unless…unless you actually know something about the topic at hand. Then it's usually, horribly, insultingly wrong.
I'm about to turn to my chapter about Falun Gong's amazing penetration of the Chinese firewall, so this article from the New York Times, is a wonderful, brilliant exception to the NYT rule. Frankly, it makes me want to shout from the rooftops.

Cable giant Comcast, at the depths of its slimy operations, can't seem to do anything right. First, they hire a Republican FCC commissioner who voted only months ago for its corrupt deal to buy NBC Universal.
Then, when Reel Grrls, a Seattle group that runs a summer camp teaching media skills to teenage girls, criticized the move, Comcast pulled their annual $18,000 corporate contribution. Rather than apologize, Reel Grrls stood tall and refused to retract a single word.
Some good news came from this fiasco. Reel Grrls has now raised enough money to tell Comcast to shove it and keep its contribution. The money that Comcast gave the group has been replaced by donations from real people outraged by the company's actions.
The subject of the Reel Grrls' criticism was the announcement by Comcast last month that it is hiring FCC commissioner Meredith Attwell Baker, who recently voted to approve the merger of Comcast and NBC Universal. Following Reel Grrls' post on Twitter, a local Comcast vice-president immediately rescinded its annual donation to the girls' program.
Then when the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post and Associated Press got hold of the story, Comcast suddenly changed its tune. Comcast then apologized, calling it an action by an "unauthorized employee."
By then, public support for the young women came pouring in. Reel Grrls quickly raised $14,000. The group is still sticking to their principles and apologizing for nothing. They told Comcast to keep its money if it's going to try to censor what they say.
This story is a real breath of fresh air in today's America. Despite campaign promises to the contrary, the Obama administration didn't have the guts to take on the bad guys. That was left to the kids. These girls are the real future of media, which is now so corrupt in its desire to generate money that it will never change.
To take on Comcast, the solution is simple. Turn off cable television. Simply quit subscribing. Tell them no. Everyone today can get television from the Internet. I did it years ago and feel good I no longer pay for television.
Of course, they still control the Internet. But competition to that technology will come as well. When it does, just say no.

Politics & Government
Why Republican lawmakers are pushing for votes on Democratic governor's tax raises
Washington's GOP-led state Senate might hold floor votes this week on more than $5 billion in new taxes proposed by Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee, despite having no intent of approving them.
Republican leadership has consistently opposed the governor's taxes, in part claiming they're unnecessarily expensive. But they have a reason for advancing the taxes to the floor: forcing Democrats to vote on them.
The move is part of an ongoing battle over how to comply with the state Supreme Court's McCleary education ruling. In the McCleary case, the high court ruled the state is overreliant on local levies to pay for basic education in K-12 schools.
While Democrats who control the House have passed a measure that aims to fix the way the state pays for education, they haven't proposed any taxes they say are needed to pay for it. Their plan is estimated to cost about $7.6 billion over the next four years.
Republicans say they're trying to figure out which taxes lawmakers on the other side of the aisle actually support. Leading Democrats say votes on the taxes would be a political gambit and a waste of time since Republicans will vote down the taxes anyway.
"We can't wait another month for negotiating to start," said Senate Republican Caucus Chairwoman Randi Becker, who lives in Eatonville. If the tax bills are pulled to the floor, Becker said, "it would be very interesting to know how many people will support."
The new taxes in Inslee's plan — about $5.5 billion over two years — would mainly go toward K-12 education. About half of the tax revenue would come from new taxes on capital gains and carbon emissions.
Much of the rest comes from $2.3 billion dollars over next two years by increasing the business and occupation tax for service businesses from 1.5 percent to 2.5 percent.
In total, about $4.4 billion of the new taxes would go into the state's two-year operating budget. About $1.1 billion would pay for capital construction projects.
In comparison, Republican leaders in the Senate have proposed meeting McCleary with a new statewide property tax to replace the local tax levies.
Their education plan is estimated to cost about $6.9 billion in the next four years and relies on $800 million a year in unspecified savings. Republicans have said they can find the money in the state's existing budget.
State Sen. Sharon Nelson, the Democratic leader from Maury Island, said she was still working out how Senate Democrats might vote on Inslee's taxes if they reach the floor.
But she said voting on the tax legislation requested by Inslee is pointless before Democrats agree to back his proposals, or negotiate with Republicans over what a joint plan might be.
"We're more than willing to take a look at revenue options when we know exactly what we are going to be funding," Nelson said. "And this is a stunt — it's a stunt to try and do political theater."
Nelson said the GOP might paint "no" votes as opposition to those specific taxes, she said, while Democrats might vote against the bills because there is no McCleary agreement yet.
New taxes on capital gains, carbon emissions and real property are some options for new money on the table, Nelson said.
Nelson also hit back at the GOP, noting that Republicans have yet to release where they would find the $800 million a year to complete their plan.
"If they're going to have deep cuts they need to show us what those are, too," she said.
Republican John Braun, the lead budget writer in the Senate, said in a statement Friday that a vote on Inslee's taxes would showcase where Democrats stand on those taxes — a necessary starting point in McCleary negotiations, he said.
"The governor and legislative Democrats consistently call for new taxes on Washington residents and employers, but it remains unclear whether or not they fully support the idea," said Braun, of Centralia.

I don't need to remind you just how precious and scarce the wet stuff is to all life on this planet. We need water for absolutely everything. Consider your morning routine for a moment. You wake, use the toilet, make a coffee, take a shower – what would your day be like if any single one of those things was missing, due to a lack of water.
We are lucky for the most part that many of us still have plenty of water every time we open the faucet, in fact we should admit that we generally feel complacent about it.
Yes we know that drought is increasingly prevalent across the world, and it's true that there are warmer temperatures the year round. But the planet has plenty of water right?
Well not exactly. The majority of the water that we use – for everything from flushing the toilet to watering the garden is purified drinking water. Come on, that is crazy right?
There is no denying that this is wasteful.
Ancient humans gathered and stored rain water for their needs, so maybe it is time for us to step back in time and follow their wisdom. Rain water is considered to be 'grey water' so it is not suitable for human consumption. Further treatment is required to purify it before we can drink rain water.
But what about your other water needs?
Watering the garden for one thing is a fantastic way to use rain water and save the drinking water that we need to conserve. Plants love rain water, for it's softness as well as for the fact that it contains fewer chemicals including chlorine.
Rain water can help to stabilise the pH levels in the soil, and you may find that you require far less fertiliser to boost the growth of plants compared to using normal tap water.
Don't forget that you will also save money on your water bill by using rain water rather than your municipal water to water the garden. Building your own rain barrel watering system is surprisingly simple, cheaper than you might expect and once it is in place it is virtually maintenance free. If you follow the tips below gravity will do the hard work for you, and you can relax in the knowledge that your garden will be beautifully watered without wastage.

A tribute to Nelson Mandela
The innocent troublemaker of the town
He had his life ahead of him;
A future to look forward to
The injustice of the government
Fuelled the raging fire in him.
'Madiba', they nicknamed him-
An activist for peace was born.
Equal rights was the target
Peace was the only key
Justice was his drive
His people must be free.
In the fight for freedom
He ended up prisoner,
Locked behind bars
Tagged 46664.
But metal bars never stopped him,
Not the hard labour or even the lime mining
He had a reason to fight
And if need be, to die.
On Robben Island
A community was formed.
A generation of young activists
Who shared in his fight.
It spread on like wildfire
Soon all voices united
The people sang and cried
Free nelson Mandel!
On that faithful day of spring
In the year 1990
When for the first time, a baby cried
Alas! He was set free.
And now, he has achieved his dream
The rest is up to us all
We must be the voice of the underprivileged
46664…it's in our hands
The greatest leader of our time,
Spent 27 years in prison
How far would you go to help your brother?
How much would you give of your time?
Remember the number,
Remember the man: Nelson Mandela
Because from now on,
It's in our hands!

Villa Atas Ombak has five bedroom suites – all light, spacious and with sweeping ocean views. The terrazzo floors, billowing white curtains and draped mosquito nets create a cool, clean colour palette, and comfort is assured with a choice of air-conditioning or ceiling fan, kimonos and slippers, top-quality King Koil mattresses, feather pillows and cotton linen on the beds (all king-size, with one converting to twins).
A striking contemporary canvas commands attention in the beautifully furnished master suite, which offers such stunning views beyond its sliding glass doors that the satellite TV and DVD player may not get much use! Beyond the dressing area is a huge bathroom with private garden courtyard where guests can shower alfresco or sink into the hamam-style bathtub. Traditional Balinese doors lead from here to a covered jacuzzi plunge pool.
The two guest bedrooms in the main house are simply furnished; their focus being on the glorious ocean views to the front, and the river to the side. Both have private terraces, dressing areas, and pretty bathrooms – one extending into a courtyard garden, the one above looking across a frangipani grove.
In a thatched pavilion close to the beach are two further guest bedrooms and a shared open-sided living area. With the ocean visible beyond the glass walls and interiors of whitewashed wood, these bedrooms have a cool beach vibe. Plantation shutters behind the bed reveal smart, ensuite bathrooms with black terrazzo bathtubs and alfresco showers.

Korn is Chianti's partner, and also a skilled assassin, assigned in the assassination division of the Black Organization. He is always seen wearing thick glasses and a hat.
Even if he is less impatient than Chianti, Korn enjoys killing, and is disappointed when he does not get the opportunity to.[1] Like most members of the organization, he has a cold personality. However, unlike the other members, he appears to be asocial, rarely interacting with other members unless spoken to. He is always seen frowning and looks robotic. His speech is short and full of pauses, leading some fans to speculate that he may have some sort of speech impediment, is a foreigner with weak Japanese or merely because of his age.
Plot overview
Black Impact
Korn appears for the first time at a shooting stand belonging to the Black Organization, training for the planned murder of Yasutero Domon. Later, he is present when Gin discusses the time and place of this murder with Kir. Even if he is supposed to participate in the two attempted assassinations (against Yasutero Domon and Kogoro Mouri), and is, each time, seen waiting for Gin's order to shoot, he never gets the opportunity to fire.
The Shadow of the Black Organization
Korn is seen in Chianti's car. He tells her he thinks Kir is dead.
Clash of Red and Black
The Crisis Beckoned by the Red Omen
Non-Canon Plot Overview
Movie 13: The Raven Chaser
Korn and Chianti are charged by Gin to burst the tires of Takagi's car, and immediately leave once their mission executed. At the end of the movie, he appears in the helicopter piloted by Vodka, albeit he is not the one to fire at Irish and Conan.
Movie 20: The Darkest Nightmare
Korn appears in Movie 20 in a pitch black helicopter near the end of the movie as a pilot. During the movie, Korn, together with Chianti, received orders from Gin to spy on the Public Security Bureau when Curaçao was transferred to the hospital. He was also able to snipe a British spy known as Stout with a headshot when Stout was receiving orders on a bus.
Relationships analysis
Black Organization
Chianti is Korn's partner. They seem to get along well enough; Chianti confides to Korn that she would like to kill Vermouth because she led Calvados to his death. They are not dating.[2] However, the animation team added an extra scene in the episode one remake special where Korn blushes when Chianti asks him if he wants to ride the ferris wheel, which in Japan is considered a romantic activity for couples.
Korn, like Chianti, resents Vermouth, believing she caused the death of Calvados. He wishes to kill Vermouth.
Different looks
- Chianti and Korn's car is a blue Dodge Viper with two white stripes.
- Korn's always carrying a M24 SWS (Sniper Weapon System) sniper rifle.
- ^ Movie 13: The Raven Chaser, where he regrets that he has not been the one firing at Irish
- ^ Super Digest Book 60+
5. Are Chianti and Korn dating?
A: No.

On the run, Pablo Escobar has become a different person. His repeated phone calls are about to give-up his location to the police.
Lonely, because he is without his wife and children, Pablo is reduced to hiding-out from all sorts of people. Out-of-shape, from eating too much "junk food," he's become overweight. Bearded and long-haired, he can walk around town without being recognized.
As his protective circle collapses, leaving him without a cadre of bodyguards, Escobar sometimes seeks safety in the jungle. Fleeing his home "prison," known as La Catedral—so he can avoid incarceration in a real prison—Pablo's existence is reduced to living like a refugee who trudges through the forest, drinking water from nearby lakes.
People whom Escobar once helped, during his powerful days, now help him. Lus Mere Valencia is one of those people. She still feels a strong loyalty to Pablo because he helped her—and MANY others like her—to lift themselves from the depths of poverty.
Today a health-care worker, Valencia remembers what it was like when Escobar came to her home. He was:
...a beggar at the door, dressed in rags like us.
How can she help the once-powerful Escobar? She gives him a cornmeal fritter—known, in Colombia, as an arepa—and then watches him disappear into the cover of darkness.
This Pablo makes mistakes. One of those mistakes is staying on the phone too long with his loved ones.
December 2, 1993 is one of those days when Escobar is really missing his family. They are separated from him for their own safety.
Staying at his aunt's home, Pablo is unaware that Colombian police are about to find him. The phone calls he repeatedly makes, especially to his son—Juan Pablo Escobar—are about to give up his location.
After his father's death, Juan Pablo changes his name to Sebastian Marroquin. He, and his family, now live in Argentina.

Dara's home!!!
After spending a week in the NICU (as a feeder grower i.e. no medical issues just needed to eat), my daughter came home today. So now my family is complete and we can get on with our lives. The past week has been strange. Kind of like living in a suspended state. While Toni was doing beatifully at home (gained 2 oz in 2 days), we couldn't be 100% estactic since we were still waiting on Dara. Well, today the NICU called and said "come get your child!" And so we did. Toni, Lara and I loaded up the car, busted out the travel system and away we went to get Toni's sister.

This spring, TechShop, a community studio that focuses on cutting-edge workshop technology and equipment, is welcoming University of Missouri-St. Louis students and faculty for a second semester. TechShop, which has nine other studio locations across the country, opened its St. Louis branch in July of last year.
The studio itself is in the Cortex Innovation District on the corner of Boyle Avenue and Forest Park Avenue and is over 18,000 square feet in size. Students, teachers, entrepreneurs, entire companies, or just any ordinary person can walk in and sign up for a membership. UMSL's College of Arts and Sciences has agreed, as of last semester, to pay the way for students to have a chance to experience TechShop and learn about all that it has to offer.
Starting last fall semester, a total of 20 memberships were given to students and faculty who signed up, allowing them to attend the workshop. This spring, there will be 20 memberships given out, followed by another 20 in the summer. Student members are able to learn about and work with a wide variety of technologies including laser cutters, 3-D printers, a machine shop, a woodshop, welding stations, design software, and much more.
"There were plenty of knowledgeable staff members around to ask if I had a question or to bounce an idea off of," said UMSL graduate student Jordan Sieve, who attended the workshop in the fall semester. "My favorite thing about it is that it's a place I can go to and have access to an array of equipment that I wouldn't normally have."
"The best part about TechShop, to me, is the excitement that the students have about it," said Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Ron Yasbin, who, along with Vice Provost Christopher Spilling, was crucial in supporting UMSL's decision to work with TechShop. "I think it opens some possibilities for other ways we can do things," said Yasbin. "In the future, if there are more companies like TechShop who can integrate with colleges, it could be really helpful."
UMSL Research Associate Professor Joel Epstein, who also attended in the fall, was positive about his experience. He said, "One of the things that surprised me the most about my time there was how friendly and helpful all the staff was. The staff worked with me to figure out what I needed to do to make it all work."
"They have some incredible equipment that students and faculty can utilize for courses," Dean Yasbin also commented. "Faculty are utilizing it for their classes. Students, faculty, and staff, are using it for their own projects, which is an incentive that we can advertise: the fact that we're offering this to our students."
"We knew that University membership would be a hit," said TechShop General Manager Mike Hill, "and UMSL's memberships are no exception. It's exciting to see students and faculty working on projects and taking classes to enhance the work they're already doing on campus. TechShop is thrilled to be the bridge for students between college life and the St. Louis Maker and Entrepreneur community."
TechShop is open from 9 a.m. until midnight, seven days a week. Additionally, the studio always welcomes walk-ins for tours.

Federal Member for Hunter Joel Fitzgibbon says the Hunter region's four coal-fired electricity generators will have reached their commercial lives within twenty years and the Turnbull Government has no plan to prepare us for it.
Speaking in the Parliament today, Mr Fitzgibbon said of the regions large generators, "One, with a capacity of 2,000MW will be gone in five years. In twenty years, they'll all be history.
"The good news is the Hunter is well placed to remain the Nation's powerhouse. The high voltage transmission lines are here. The skills are here. We have excellent wind, solar and geothermal resources and plentiful gas. We have a range of clean energy institutes in Newcastle including the CSIRO. But where is the plan?"
Mr Fitzgibbon said the former Labor Government had laid the foundations for the transition only to have the work repealed by the Abbott Government.
"Had the former Government's policy framework remained in place we would all now be in a much better place. The nation would now be operating under an emissions trading scheme in which carbon would be trading at a considerably lower price than $23 per tonne. Intensive trade exposed emitters would be supported on an ongoing basis, pensioners and low income families would be protected from any price rises, carbon-revenue would be funding projects which lift productivity in our farming sector and initiatives designed to protect the Great Barrier Reef and the environment more generally," Mr Fitzgibbon said.
He accused Malcolm Turnbull of not only failing to produce a strategy, but of setting the cause back by giving "false hope" over new "clean coal" generators.
"I was flabbergasted when Malcolm Turnbull put the cause back further by offering false hope on the development of new "clean-coal" generators. It was cleaner and more efficient coal generators I was pinning my hopes on for many years when urging a cautious approach to climate policy. The Rudd Government invested a fortune in "carbon capture and storage" but the results have been less then promising. Super critical coal generators are cleaner but sadly, not clean enough. Just as important, the energy companies have no interest in building coal-fired generators that require 30 or more years of operation to deliver a decent return on investment," he told the House of Representatives.
"Where is the transitional plan? Given Turnbull backed Tony Abbott when he destroyed Labor's plan, what is Malcolm Turnbull's Government doing to ensure the lights stay on, prices are stable and Hunter jobs are preserved?
"We cannot further delay the Hunter's transition by bleating about "clean coal". Sadly, it isn't going to be our future and we don't have a moment to lose before we accept that and begin building a new beginning."

Grammarly is a cost-free app with a paid-for premium option. Is it worth investing the cash for the more expensive alternative?
Among my clients has a registration to the grammar-checker solution Grammarly. The fundamental function provided by Grammarly– determining a lot of spelling and also grammar errors– is no charge. But if you want the even more robust version you should pay $29.95/ month.
That cost appears tiny, but like cell phone and also cable television bills, it accumulates rapidly. That fairly small monthly cost works out to $359.40 annually, which isn't precisely nobodies. Naturally, you can save some cash if you're willing to pay quarterly ($ 19.98/ month or $239.76 annually) or every year ($ 11.66/ month or $139.92 annually). But– here's my vital warning– don't enroll in a year-long program unless you're particular it's going to pay off for you.
So, just what's the distinction between the free version as well as the premium one? And how does it compare with the spell mosaic everybody gets with MS Word? Right here's my take on spelling and also grammar checkers:
MS Word is much better compared to nothing. But not by much. It will certainly catch some of the extra egregious mistakes you could make. However it will not constantly identify homonyms– words that appear the very same but that bring different meanings: roadway vs. rode, as an example. (I simply did a test, and Word caught the difference between their as well as they're so its expert system has actually boosted in the last five years, at least.).
The complimentary version of Grammarly is much more advanced compared to Word. It records a bunch of errors that Costs Gates' software disregards. I simply ran my blog post from recently via it, as well as it recognized 12 of exactly what it termed "vital concerns" in the message. I really did not agree with several of them as I eschew the Oxford comma (unless I need it for quality) but it caught a couple of things I had missed out on. For instance, in the sentence:.
This is almost always wrongheaded, and also is a great method to persuade yourself that you have an instance of writer's block.
Grammarly told me that I shouldn't have utilized a comma after wrongheaded. Oh, oh. Grammarly was right.
Then again, for the sentence:.
Some individuals are birthed high; others are birthed short.
It informed me that brief must be quick. Wonderful try, Grammarly, but you're wrong about that.
Regardless, I valued the little explanatory notes Grammarly offered with each "mistake." I additionally liked the means I had the ability to disregard their recommendations when I regarded it wrong or unnecessary. You can also check out grammarly review
Extra amazingly, the service informed me I had 30 "innovative concerns," and I should spend for an upgrade to figure out exactly what they were. Although it pained me to invest $29.95 for examining a solitary post, in the interest of investigative journalism, I decided I had to do it. (Additionally, while you have to give them your bank card number upfront, you're qualified to a reimbursement for up to a week.).
So right here is the info the added $29.95 got me:
* An unclear antecedent:
This is generally wrongheaded, and also is a great method to encourage on your own that you have a case of writer's block.
I assume Grammarly was appropriate that my "this" had not been transparent. Guilty! I have a poor way of being unclear with antecedents.
* An overuse of the modern strained:
I'm having to re-do job that I did when before.
Yes, Grammarly was proper. I ought to probably have actually stated, "I need to re-do work that I did when previously.".
* A repeated word:
Do a mind map rather than an overview. I know your quality 10 social studies teacher informed you that you always should prepare a rundown.
I differ. Some word repetition, used deliberately, can aid "draw" viewers via articles.
I will not birth you by noting the other errors. Let me simply state they remained in a similar blood vessel to the ones I have actually simply detailed.
So, right here is my decision concerning Grammarly. I think the no-cost solution is superb and also I'm most likely to begin running all my writing via it. For many people, I believe the costs service is unworthy of the price. Yet if your employer wants to pay for it for you, then accept his or her offer.
Additionally, if English isn't your first language, or if you're dyslexic, I believe the no-cost solution will still capture the huge majority of errors that you have to worry about.
Finally, here's a crucial indicate understand: the service is automated. It does not entail a breathing human proofreader or copy editor. It's a maker doing the work. Thus, it's not going to use the type of comprehensive, intelligent comments you would certainly obtain from a trained human being.
You could pay Grammarly added, if you want, to have them ahead of the piece to a genuine real-time individual. However, I constantly prefer to establish a connection with my own living, breathing duplicate editor.

Earlier this year Julie and I went to New York to check out children's wear trade shows and find out which would be the best fit for Sugarcane. It was a lightning quick trip but I'm glad I did the research before deciding. No photos are allowed at trade shows, so here are a few non-trade-show outtakes from our short trip.
At Playtime we met the incredibly kind and lovely Lulu, owner of Allegria Boutique. She invited us to check out her shop. Luckily, Williamsburg was on our itinerary and we were able to pop in after brunch at Cafe Mogador. Her shop was so dreamy.
Sugarcane will be exhibiting at Playtime in less than two months. It'll be a family affair in August with Ricci and Nectar helping me staff the Sugarcane booth. Wish us luck!

California Weed
Legal marijuana causes warehouse rent to skyrocket in Sacramento – 4 or 5 times normal
Legal pot growers are pushing prices and rents for industrial properties to unheard-of heights in some areas of the city of Sacramento.
Warehouses and light-industrial buildings are selling for twice the usual asking prices, and rents have skyrocketed to four or five times normal in the industrial area between Power Inn Road and Watt Avenue in the city's southeast area, commercial real estate brokers said.
The heated market for pot-growing locations – leading up to next year's legalization of recreational marijuana in California – is soaking up vacancies left over from last decade's devastating recession, but it's also forcing longtime tenants to relocate and driving up rents citywide, brokers said.
"The cannabis industry in the Sacramento market has been disruptive to the traditional industrial market," said Michael Luca, an industrial real estate broker with CBRE in Sacramento.
"It could turn out to be a benefit to the market and drive rates higher, but it is upending and causing confusion for traditional industrial occupiers – small businesses that employ a reasonable number of people," such as construction firms, pest control companies and landscape maintenance outfits, Luca said.
Driving the trend is Sacramento's embrace of marijuana growing operations inside city limits and its creation of a regulatory framework to let the firms operate legally – and to collect taxes and fees from them.
State voters approved the legalization of recreational marijuana last year under Proposition 64, but cities and counties retain much of the say over how and where legal weed can be grown.
Sacramento is one of the only major urban areas in the state that's adopted pot-growing ordinances and made it clear that cannabis cultivators are welcome, said Hezekiah Allen, executive director of the California Growers Association, a Sacramento-based organization that represents pot growers.
"Sacramento's done a great job of digging in and putting a system together," Allen said. "The city got out in front. They figured out what they were interested in and created opportunities for those types of projects to move forward."
The only other city that's done a comparable job is Santa Rosa, he said.
That's why Sacramento is attracting a range of pot-minded businesspeople, he said, including growers from other parts of the state seeking legal legitimacy.
"Existing businesses that have been operating in a gray area are getting into more permanent facilities," he said. Some want to increase production and have access to Sacramento's network of highways that connect it to the Bay Area and Los Angeles, where warehouse space is more expensive, he said.
Allen said the city's industrial real estate market likely will experience "a bit of a bubble in the next few years," but he said he thinks there will "probably be some real sustained value."
More than 100 businesses were seeking special permits from the city of Sacramento to run indoor marijuana growing operations as of July, and some officials predicted that up to 200 might apply before the end of the year. City authorities have granted more than a dozen conditional use permits to marijuana operations since Sept. 1, online records show.
Growers and other business operators hoping to get permits have lined up to rent and buy warehouses and light-industrial spaces at exorbitant prices.
Mark Demetre, executive vice president of Colliers International in Sacramento, said would-be marijuana growers have been buying buildings for $100 a square foot that a year ago were selling for $50 a square foot. One 40,000-square-foot industrial building in the Power Inn Road area sold for $100 a square foot, or $4 million, and the owner decided to retire early, he said.
Spaces that were renting for 50 cents a square foot in the city's southeast industrial area now are renting for $2 or $2.50 a square foot, he said. Some landlords refuse to rent to marijuana growers, but others aren't renewing leases with longtime tenants to secure the higher-paying cannabis renters and buyers, he said.
That, in turn, is pushing up rents in other parts of the city such as North Natomas, he said.
"Manufacturers have to relocate to different submarkets because anything in the city will be priced out of range," Demetre said, suggesting they may have to look elsewhere in the county and beyond.
Vacancy rates for industrial real estate soared during the recession, reaching up to 20 percent in some parts of the Sacramento region. Those rates have generally dropped to around 7 percent, but in the Power Inn corridor, the vacancy rate is around 4 percent, Demetre said.
Asked if the legal weed industry was good or bad for the city's real estate market, Luca said, "The intelligent answer is it's unknown at this point. What's happening with the cannabis industry may be unhealthy for the market as a whole. When there's a run-up, it usually leads to a correction at some point historically."
Pot still isn't legal under federal law, and growers operating legally under state law could be put out of business by federal enforcement, he noted. Agents could even seize the buildings the growers occupy.
In short, Luca said, "It's really uncharted territory."

Urban Meyer's first loss of the season has never felt so good for the Florida Gators.
After winning his first 24 games as head coach at Ohio State, Meyer's No. 2 Buckeyes fell 34-24 to No. 10 Michigan State in the Big Ten Championship Game on Saturday night. The loss will prevent Ohio State from playing for a national title and instead send Auburn to a matchup with No. 1 Florida State on Jan. 6 in Pasadena, Calif.
Although they do not stand to benefit from Ohio State's loss, several Gators took to Twitter to express their pleasure in seeing Meyer's first loss with the Buckeyes and his exclusion from the national championship game.
"Lol lets see if Urban Meyer play sick again #UnLoyal," wide receiver Quinton Dunbar tweeted shortly after the conclusion of the game.
Other tweets from current Gators include kicker Brad Phillips, who tweeted "Justice" and offensive guard Jon Halapio, who tweeted "HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" but later stated his post was not in relation to the outcome of Meyer's game.
Meyer has been heavily scrutinized for his departure from the Florida football program prior to the hiring of Will Muschamp.
Following a loss to Alabama in the 2009 SEC Championship Game, Meyer was admitted into a Gainesville hospital while suffering from chest pains and dehydration. Later in December of 2009, Meyer briefly resigned, citing health complications. He returned for the 2010 season before resigning a second time at the conclusion of the season.
After spending the 2011 season as an ESPN college football analyst, Meyer accepted a head coaching position with Ohio State in November of 2011, a move that is still criticized by fans and former players in Gainesville.
Prior to Saturday night, Ohio State's most recent loss came to Florida in the 2012 TaxSlayer.com Gator Bowl.
Florida State opened as seven-point favorite over Auburn. After going 4-8 this season, Florida missed a bowl game for the first time since 1990.

Cohasset Common - #30, Card
Cohasset Common - #30, Card
#30, watercolor
5x7 card
Although many New England towns have replaced the commons obliterated by growth, the Cohasset Common is an original. This painting captures three of its best-loved buildings, the Unitarian Church (the First Parish), the Second Congregational Church, and the Town Hall.
Because of these buildings and the Common's other examples of Georgian, Greek Revival, and Second Empire styles, Cohasset is on the National Register of Historic Places. Settled in the 1670s, the area was part of Hingham until 1770, after which it became Cohasset. A fishing and shipbuilding town, Cohasset retained its seaward orientation until late in the 19th century when its scenic waterfront and proximity to Boston made it a prime residential community as well.
