Motorists will pay more as the next phase of toll increases kick in at Port Authority bridges and tunnels on Sunday
Cash tolls on the George Washington Bridge, Holland Tunnel, Lincoln Tunnel, Goethals Bridge, Bayonne Bridge and Outerbridge Crossing will increase $1 to $13.
Tolls for E-ZPass users will go from $9.50 to $10.25 during peak commuting hours and from $7.50 to $8.25 during off-peak hours. The changes take effect at 12:01 a.m. Sunday.
The Port Authority last raised tolls in September 2011 and is expected to raise tolls for four straight years through 2014.
The bistate agency said it needed to offset security-related projects following the 9/11 attacks, a drop in revenue caused by the global economic slump, and the $11 billion World Trade Center complex.
Port Authority tolls will next go up on Dec. 1, 2013 unless a lawsuit against the increase is successful. And another 75-cent to a $1 increase is planned for 2014.
Drivers certainly aren't welcoming the news thought many were resigned to dig deeper into their pockets.
"I'm bothered of course, but I can't do anything about it," said Loida Lao of Rockland County. "I just have to sacrifice. My shopping, maybe? Because I have no choice. I have to cross the bridge. I have to go to work."
And Jay Bierker, filling up his tank in Fort Lee near the GW toll said, "What can I do about it? It's a lot of money. You gotta figure out ways to adjust for it -- pack a lunch."

Wired for Sound Album Available!
The album – Wired for Sound Mozambique has been released and is available on iTunes for download! Revenue generated by sales will go towards working with partner radio stations and musicians to establish solar powered recording set ups at each community radio station we visit on our trips!
Here are a few choice quotes we love on the album from reviews and followers:
"I was afraid the concept would be like Paul Simon appropriating South African music, but not at all. You put the locals in the foreground instead of yourselves. And great, crisp recording, too". (American follower living in France)
"This is an amazing project that deserves all the support it can get. The album is on Amazon for only nine dollars and I highly suggest you buy it, If not for the beautiful and varied world music that you should be exposed to, then simply to benefit such a great initiative". (Ian Lunn, Celebrity Cafe)
"…the laid back armchair traveler has a first class winner on his hands here." (Midwest Record Review)
"Today I saw the wired-for-sound page for the first time and in actual fact since I have been listening to the songs again and again. It is just great, honestly and most seriously great!" (Follower from Buenos Aires)

How do you define and see nature? For me, nature is green - every shade of green imaginable. That's not to say that any other color gets left out, not at all, it's just that I can taste and feel green - it is all immersive. This image for me defines the Illinois prairie in its many colors that shift with the time of day the the weather. I captured this image while at a residency at the Ragdale Foundation. I have been there twice, in different seasons, and this manipulated photograph reflects both times.
This is a limited edition of 15, silk chiffon scarf.

Enough of defense. This year, islam in america go close to offensive.

So, what is the answer then? Well, it perceived to me that i needed you to definitely point me in the right direction, i absolutely started to join up to for all kinds of help guru type pages.

I was just about to quit and resign to correct attitude that that was not for me personally when my path crossed with Mac computer.

And, if you will your industry is not listed or is listed incorrectly, you should use their add/update page remedy your advertisement.
With each one of these said, it could actually be boiled down to one idea: good personal attachment. Indeed, the best sellers or companies are not those that are able to clinch that million-dollar option. Rather, it is those who are rrn a position to get the groove of the company's clients, keeping them for many people years arrive. That is there are lots of their business last further.

Snapshot: Formal concrete pool with water feature and frameless glass pool fencing
This formal concrete pool in Kellyville is simple and elegant, with the waterfall at one end creating a stunning backdrop and focal point for the outdoor area. The stack stone water feature contrasts nicely with the travertine tiling of the pool surround, while the frameless glass pool fencing doesn't restrict the view. Travertine is not only cheaper than other natural stone tiles but it is also cooler underfoot. For this build the client opted to heat the pool via solar, which is a cost effective alternative to a gas heater setup, and is largely maintenance free once installed.
Why do we specialise in building concrete pools? Unlike a fibreglass pool where you are limited to a handful of shapes and designs, a concrete pool gives you complete control over the design of your pool. Your options include a formal pool that is square or rectangular, a natural pool that blends into your landscaping, a lap pool for getting fit or an infinity pool for that wow factor. Concrete pools are also inherently stronger and built to last for many years. Get in touch to discuss the design of your concrete pool and make your dream a reality. Or pop into our Castle Hill showroom to talk through your options with our friendly team.

Significance of the Hindu Religion
At the end of the 18th century, Colonist referred the followers of Indian religions collectively as Hindus. English language introduced Hinduism in the 19th century. This denoted religious, philosophical and cultural traditions native to India, Nepal.
Origin of Hindu
Hindu word originated from the Sanskrit word, Sindhu, which symbolizes the Indus River flowing in the Indian Subcontinent.
Hinduism has no single founder and is one of the oldest living religions in the world. It has approximately one billion followers thus, making it the world's third largest religion after Christianity and Islam.
Hindu Religious Books
Their holy scriptures include the Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, Mahabharata, Ramayana, Bhagavad Gita and Agamas. The compilation of the major epics, Ramayana and Mahabharata, occurred during the BCE and early CE. These two books contain stories about rulers and their wars in ancient India.
Hinduism is a diverse system where the Hindus comprise of different sects worshipping either the stone where they see divinity. They worship fire for sacredness or pray the idol where they find positivity to sustain the daily challenges of life. The concept of God is complex and depends on a tradition that a person follows.
The Rig Veda, which is the oldest scripture, allows all Hindus to seek and discover the answers of life on their own terms.
Hindus understand Brahman as a Supreme being, and they worship him as Vishnu, Shiva, and Brahma depending upon their beliefs. The fundamental idea of the Hindu religion is about incarnations of God in the form of human being. Avatar is an incarnation.
Avatars so far have been Rama and Krishna who played a crucial role in forming the two books: Ramayana and Mahabharata.
Beliefs of Hindus
Hindus believe in the soul, which is the true "self" of every person as eternal. This soul (Atman) is indistinct from Brahman, who is the supreme spirit.
The Upanishads state that when an individual becomes aware of his atman (soul); he will take steps to reach salvation (Moksha).
Hindus is a firm believer of karma and binds the notions of destiny and reincarnation. The cycle of action, reaction, birth, death, and rebirth is a process called samsara.
Samsara provides the different pleasures of life. However, once that soul attains Moksha; it will unite with one entity; God. Thus, the soul does not need a physical body to take birth and experience happiness and sorrow that life has to offer.
As one of the holy books (Bhagvad Gita) indicate:
As a person puts on new clothes and discards old and torn clothes. Similarly, an embodied soul enters new material bodies, leaving old bodies
Bhagvad Gita 2:22
But exceedingly dear to Me are those devotees who make Me (the Purushottama) their one supreme aim and follow out with a perfect faith and exactitude the immortalising Dharma described in this teaching.
Bhagvad Gita 12:20
And yet all existences are not situated in Me, behold My divine Yoga; Myself is that which supports all being and constitutes their existence.
Bhagvad Gita 9:5
But those who giving up all their actions to Me, and wholly devoted to Me, worship meditating on Me with an unswerving Yoga, those who fix on Me all their consciousness, O Partha, speedily I deliver them out of the sea of death-bound existence.
Bhagvad Gita 12:6-7
The senses, mind and intellect are its seat; enveloping knowledge by these it bewilders the embodied soul.
Bhagvad Gita 3:40
Goal of a Human
Each Hindu has an aim in his life.
That includes:
- Walk on the path of righteousness, and follow the principles of law, order and harmony.
- Earn your livelihood respectfully and be able to support yourself and your family.
- Be able to limit yourself from sensual pleasure.
- Perform deeds that could lead to liberation of the soul and freedom from the cycle of birth and death.
Based on the above goals, there are books (Example: Bhagvad Gita) that help guide a man towards that the path to achieve the spiritual goal of life by different methods (yoga)
- Method of Bhakti. It teaches the path of love and devotion.
- Method of Karma. It teaches the path of right action.
- Method of Raja. It teaches the path of meditation.
- Method of Jnana. It teaches the path of wisdom.
Symbols pertaining to Hinduism
Symbols such as OM, the Swastika sign and the tikka on the forehead identify a follower of this faith.
Hindus perform certain religious rituals at home. They include lighting a lamp and singing hymns to the lord after a shower in the morning. They offer food to the deity before consuming it.
Occasions of birth and death involve elaborate sets of religious customs. Each of them involves prayers, and food.
Hinduism does not force anyone to go to any pilgrimage.
There are some sites that are famous amongst Hindu devotees.
- Kumbh Mela
Every 12 years this festival is held amongst four cities namely, Allahabad, Haridwar, Nashik, Ujjain.
- Char Dham
Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri compose the four abodes of this pilgrimage site.
- Temples such as Vaishno Devi, Puri, Shirdi, Sabarimala, Tirupati.
Hindus have many festivals through out the year. The Hindu calendar gives the dates based on the positioning of the planet and stars. Each festival has a Hindu mythology and different sects of Hindus celebrate it.
Some of the examples of Hindu festivals are:
- Holi
- Dussera
- Diwali
- Krishna Janmashatmi
- Pongal
- Ram Nayami
- Raksha Bandhan
Hindustani Music
Hinduism is a religion practiced majorly in India, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Indonesia.
Demographically, Hinduism is the world's third largest religion, after Christianity and Islam.
Hindu values
Hindus campaign the practice of non-violence and have a respect for all forms of life. Thus, many embrace vegetarianism. Hindus regard cow as a symbol of unselfish giving, thus legally banning cow slaughter.
Significance of Namaste
Namaste is a common salutation, which originated from Hindus and Buddhists. This greeting has a slight bow while hands pressed together, palms touching, and fingers pointed upwards. Place the hands in front of the chest. In other cultures, there is shaking of hand or embracing each other. Namaste is a non-contact form of meeting and greeting another individual, and is equivalent to saying, "Greetings" or "Have a Good Day!" in English.
Hindu Music/Hindustani Music
Ragas are a common way of Hindu music, and it includes classical music, Bhajan and other musical genres.
Hindu Clothing
Hindus adorn themselves with colorful outfits. Woman's traditional clothing is the Saree. Men dress up in Kurta Pajama.
There are approximately 4,000 religions in the world.
Each religion has the essence to keep man grounded by preaching the values of life and showing him the path to enlightenment. Religion helps man dig deep within himself to find his ethics, morality and then choose a lifestyle accordingly. Hinduism is one such belief.
Okay ! That`s very kind of you.
@ruchira A nice hub specially from someone who is not in India. I have some doubts could you explain me what are these agamas ? I have never heard about them, though I have travelled much in the premises of my religion.
Good work. People outside India don't have a good idea about Hindus. I hope your hub will educate the people. This is the most ancient religion in the world and stand for communal harmony. Hindus are known for their great tolerance. Thank you for writing this informative hub on Hindus.
What I've found most attractive about the Hindu religion is its acceptance of other religions and ways of living, which comes from its multiplicity of deities. Voting this Up and Interesting.
Thank you for the education on the Hindu Religion. The respect of life and practice of non-violence should be part of all faiths.
A very useful hub! I did not know many of these details, so I am learning so much.
Great work here. Yes to finding our Truth within. We are all One. Namaste....Gary
What an interesting and informative hub on Hinduism. I knew a little of the Hindu religion here and there, but not a comprehensive understanding of it as you give here. Also, I had no idea the swastika originally came from Hindu. That is interesting. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of this religion.
All religions have proved disastrous to humanity in lowering human dignity for know verifiable reason. People follow religions under terrors of phantom of God.
Nice information Ruchira !! I love those Bhagvad Gita Proses !! Voted up and sharing..
Great hub. Thank you for providing such a thorough explanation to a beautiful religion.
Instead of proselytizing or insisting that our interpretation of god (or non-god) is the only truth. Hubs like this helps us understand better the diversity and similarities of different kinds of religion. We should remember that all religion share a common purpose, which is to serve as a sanctuary in time of need.
This was so interesting. You did a great job of outlining everything and giving us just the right amount of detail and information. So many know about Karma but not much else in the Hindu Religion....now, we have learned more.
Voted up, useful, and interesting.
Interesting presentation of hindu religion.. To be honest I knew only a little bits and bytes about Hinduism till now. Thanks for sharing.
Namaste, Ruchira! Thanks for this comprehensive explanation of the faith. It is readable and accessible! Thanks for sharing, sharing too!
Very interestingly written, Ruchira. This hub will make it easy for non Hindus to understand what Hinduism is. I commend you on this effort of writing it in such a simple language.
Voted up and interesting.
This Hub was very informative. I certainly agree with the principles of the Hindu religion. Everyone should live a life like the Hindu.
Voted UP, etc.
That was fascinating Ruchira, I never knew about the swastika, I knew it was from an old religion but not Hindu, this was so easy to read, and very helpful for people to dip into for information, voted up and shared, nell
I found this a most informative hub, esp. the video, Scientifically Proven Religion. Ancient religion has always fascinated me. I use the OM when i meditate, ensuing a calmness that relieves life stresses. Thank you Ruchira...
Wonderful information, Ruchira! Thank you for breaking it all down into a very easy to understand hub. Well done!
Very interesting . Thank you
Ruchira, what an interesting article - I was fascinated to see the swastika among some of the symbols, how very strange. I had to study hunduism as part of a wideruni course on Victorian religion and really felt that it was a religion that became 'one' with it s believers, just another part of their lives which meant a lot to the way they lived. Very interesting, shared etc.
thanks for opening up an eye to the Hindu Religion... it is fascinating as all religion... thanks Ruch :)
interesting. Thank you for this.
Great hub, you have explained about Hinduism very well in your hub. Great write. Voted up.
Ruchira, I am glad you have put the Hinduism in its historical perspective. Its scientific linkage is appreciated in other parts of the world as well. A great Hub. Thumbed up and shared.
Fascinating and very informative, Ruchira. I learned much new information from you, m'dear. Thank you and Namaste.
Very informative. Thank you for sharing. I have heard of a few of those terms via my readings of Depak Chopra (big fan!) but learned a lot. I think this kind of sharing can bring understanding, tolerance and peace to man kind.


text: Travel photography is unlike any form of creative image making. There's nothing better than exploring and capturing different cultures and environments that I encounter. The goal of my travel photography is to go beyond the typical shot and capture something that emphasizes the place. Typically, this involves experiencing the culture first-hand and building relationships with the people who live there. Even though I've shot some of the most amazing landscapes in the world, travel photography is my favorite genre of photography due to the experience of place.

Gulfstar Fishing Charters
This particular trip will be a half-day trip with Gulfstar Fishing Charters, which is one of the most popular charter companies operating out of Tarpon Springs.
One of the best things about deep sea fishing on a chartered excursion is that you don't have to worry about bringing any fishing gear with you. The captain will provide you with everything you need from rods and reels to bait and hooks. You don't even need to purchase a fishing license.
The only thing that you will want to bring on this adventure is a cooler full of food and drinks for the day, which will then double as transportation home for all of the fish that you catch.
And as for what to wear, the only requirement is that you plan on being comfortable. It is often about five degrees cooler out on the water, so make sure to dress accordingly.
The Sundance II
The boat we will be boarding is the Sundance II, which was built by hand 1970. After surviving more than 40 years of cod fishing in New England, the Sundance II has found a new life operating charters here in Florida.
While the boat definitely has a rich history, it also boasts plenty of new technology.
Since its relocation to Florida in 2014, the Sundance II has been fitted with new electronics, a Furuno radar, and a digital fish finder.
What About the Fish?
After cruising for a little over an hour and getting about nine miles away from the shore, we will spend 2-3 hours fishing in water that is between 25 and 40 feet deep.
Once the captain drops anchor and we start casting our lines baited with squid, there is a good chance that we will see Key West Snapper, Black Seabass, Porgies, and Grouper coming onto the boat.
Another perk that comes with a deep sea fishing charter is that the crew will be happy to clean all of the fish that you catch so that you can take them home in your cooler and cook them up however you like.
Our Trip Details
The Citrus Hills Vacationers Club is planning this deep-sea fishing excursion for Thursday, October 3. Tickets are on sale now, and the cost is $105 for members and $110 for guests.
Tickets include round-trip transportation from the Activity Center and everything that comes with the fishing charter, as well as ice to pack your catch for the ride home.
The plan is to leave the Activity Center at 7:30 am and return sometime around 6 pm.
No matter how passionate you are about fishing, this is going to be an amazing experience for everyone who participates. Don't miss out on the fun, and don't forget to invite your friends and family over for the cookout when you return!

Contract in hand to build replacement for Bluffton fire station
The Bluffton Township Fire District has signed a $2.2 million contract for a new fire station near Old Town.
The 7,200-square-foot station is planned for the intersection of Ulmer and Burnt Church roads. It would replace Station 30, a 34-year-old firehouse a few hundred feet away at 2 Bridge St. that has documented structural problems.
With the contract in hand, Court Atkins Architects and Fraser Construction can firm up the plans and apply for building permits, said Deputy Fire Chief John Thompson.
"It was the last hurdle we had to clear as far as the negotiating side of things," he said of the contract, which was reviewed by county officials before it was signed.
Heather Moulton, a Fraser Construction project manager, said a date has not been set for the station's construction. But if the local permitting process goes smoothly, she predicted work could begin in September and last about six months.
The fire district has been planning to replace the station since 2007 and reduced its spending during the past five years to save for its construction. In 2010, an engineering study determined the current firehouse had rusted support columns and could collapse in a major storm.
The replacement station would be about a third larger than the current one and have a workout room, updated communications equipment and "individualized" bunk rooms, Thompson said. It would also be built to withstand hurricanes.
Station 30 houses an engine company with four firefighters and a two-member EMS squad, and it is one of six stations operated by the fire district.

In May 2018, Seth Afedzi spent a week with the children and teachers of Steep School. Seth is headteacher of Holy Spirit Anglican School in Foso, which has a link with Steep Primary. Two years earlier, Zac Barr (then youth worker) and John Owen (vicar) visited the parishes of Anomabo and Foso. Their costs were met by the generosity of parishioners.
Anomabo is a coastal village, and is linked with Froxfield. It is not far from Cape Coast University in an area of great beauty.
Foso is a much larger inland town with scattered mission areas around it, and is linked with Steep.
School-to-school links between Froxfield Church of England Primary School and St Thomas Anglican School, Anomabo, together with Steep CE School and Holy Spirit School, Foso are active.

Winter hits, making sour mouths twitch.
Baby bellows straight from the gut;
her mother so corrupted by the sound,
she peregrinates to the capsule.
People photograph their food
as though they will never taste it
and eschew cutlery in favour of fingers.
Schlep, compadres!
Upside down crates colonise polished concrete –
wooden tops pinched from nervous forks and overused china.
A mirror of how my cheeks flush when you are near;
petechia skin rolling out to my ears and down through my neck.
A human meditation – I observe your temerity and gentle harbour
like some blue night I want to anchor in
amble and drown, amble and drown.
Girls talk about adrenal anxiety –
the conversation tepid and usual.
Expected, like upturned cuffs of jeans,
crisp and sweeping clavicles of young girls, and
broken promises like webs spun at dawn.
So much usual.
Give me something I can use.
Like the weight of your gaze where you pull on my eye
(the pigmentation of an unsullied soul),
or the answer to your question.
Just give me something I can use.

100 Legendary Trunks Louis Vuitton
12 comments:
I don't know about you, but my chiropractor wouldn't let me lift that Hemingway trunk. I'd rather tote a big box of rocks.
I knew a lady who had some junk in her trunk once.

Looking at this kind of stuff is really great, but it does make me desire something like it for myself.
And then I remember my economic position.
I gotta get going on that side work....

Great post. Its a real shame what has become of the company. Onetime maker of Hemingway's trunk, now the proponent of hoochie-mamma junk. Wouldn't be caught dead with a "LV" suitcase- or sunglasses for that matter (seriously, they make sunglasses).

I also had Input as a top "theme" from Strengths Finders. My collecting is centered more around ideas and knowledge, less around physical items (though I can have that tendency too, if unchecked).
Also, Intellection, Learner, Strategic, and Connectedness.
Must say I love the Hemingway trunk. A rather elegant way to cart your library around! Makes me wonder what the going rate for such a trunk would have been in the 20s. I know their bags don't come cheap; probably a safe assumption that the trunks would be a pretty penny.

First thought, Ho Hum, another lame compendium of out of copyright photos, but this is a travel fantasy first class. I can just see myself outside the Connaught, while my man loads the fitted cases in the trunk of the Bentley...boat train to Calais, rendezvous with Grace at the Plaza Athenee...I think I'll go burn my nylon duffle bag BTW, a belated Happy Birthday

Maxi - there's a lot of junk in my trunk, that's what makes it legendary....
- January 29, 2012 at 8:47 PM
The only highly specialized travel case I want (not need, but want) is a nice portable bar. I did just find one in a local thrift shop, but it was a cheapo thing from the seventies or eighties. Sure, it had all its pieces, and looked as though it had never been used, and the cups and tools were all metal, but the plastic case seemed only slightly thicker than tissue paper, and it had a flimsiness that did not bode well for its actually being used with the two fifths it was designed to carry.
Me, too. Makes me want to imagine myself as Bertie Wooster, only not quite so bumbling and maybe a bit more dashing.

For me, it is less about the actual trunk and more about the "golden age of travel". A reminder of a time when travel was civilized, there was no TSA, and the journey was an end, not just the means of travel.

Okay, man, you NAIL this. Best post on this over-discussed, over-blogged subject. Ever. As I wrote on LPC, I've never been able to bring myself to buy myself a piece of LV. My granny had it, but that was from the 1950s. That was then. Kudos, friend, my hat is off to you!

Weeds: the plants no one wants. They have names too though we may not know it. They are also telling us stories if we pay attention close enough. Dandelions try to break up compaction - they drill deep into the soil: that's why they are hard to pull out. Bermuda grass holds together loose soil, so when you rototilled it so it was "perfect", it was perfect for that weed to come and help hold together that loosened soil. After fire, phosphorous is burned out of the topsoil and that's why we see a special set of plants arrive after fire: they're returning the phosphorous and generating the mulch that will recalibrate the soil. Each plant in addition to physically interacting with the soil is also creating a unique response to the soil's and soil life's succession. Every plant accumulates a spectrum of nutrients that remain when that plant breaks down to soil - it does range depending on the soil and conditions, but those are ranges within an established spectrum or unique circumstances like toxins being taken up by plants. Rice for instance is an aquatic filter as are all aquatic plants to a degree, so the unsafe arsenic levels we are finding are simply the plant trying to clean the water and/or soil. It may be the case that years of using arsenic-laden pesticides have imbued the soil with arsenic loads even in now established organic paddies.
Listen to your weeds: they are trying to tell you about your soil conditions and what needs to happen to improve them. You can pre-empt your weeds, chop & drop them before they set seed so you return the nutrients to the soil, and then plant something more vigorous and desirable that does the same function in their wake. If your weeds are thistles, plant artichokes or cardoon! If your weeds are dandelions, plant daikon radish! If you have bermuda grass, plant white clover and smother it: you can plant directly in clover or chop and drop it to the nubs and then throw sow plant in it. I've done it following Masanobu Fukuoka's example: it works. It's a really easy and fast pathway to healing a landscape. Listen to your plants, your birds, your soil! They are all trying to tell you something if you just give them the time and attention.

Last year at auction, German painter Gerhard Richter outsold Monet, Giacometti and Rothko—combined. A case study of an artist's rise. Will it last?
Few people can pinpoint the moment when an artist becomes iconic in the way of Pablo Picasso or Andy Warhol, but right now the art world is trying to anoint Mr. Richter. Last year, his works sold at auction for a total of $200 million, according to auction tracker Artnet—more than any other living artist and topping last year's auction totals for Claude Monet, Alberto Giacometti and Mark Rothko combined. At Mr. Richter's gallery in New York, the waiting list for one of his new works, which can sell for $3 million apiece, is several dozen names long. In November at Sotheby's, London collector Lily Safra paid $20.8 million for Mr. Richter's 1997 eggplant-colored "Abstract Painting," an auction record for the artist. Other artists have sold individual works at higher prices—Jeff Koons, for example—but in terms of volume at auction, Mr. Richter currently tops the market.

Many hypoallergenic dogs are small in form, but some, such as the giant schnauzer and the bouvier des Flanders, shed rarely and produce less dander compared to other dog breeds. They make ideal pets for dog lovers who want large but hypoallergenic dogs.
The giant schnauzer is the giant version of the standard schnauzer with an ideal height of 23 to 28 inches. It has a hard dense and rough outer coat and a soft undercoat. These dogs rarely shed and require regular grooming to prevent matting in the undercoat.
The bouvier des Flanders ideally stands between 24 to 28 inches. It has a tousled thick water-resistant double coat with a rough and hard outer coat and a fine dense soft undercoat. Its thick coat should be brushed several times a week to prevent shedding and to keep the tangles at a minimum.

Terrific Audience Response to Ham and Passion Premiere/
DeNada Dance Theatre opened its 2017 National Tour of Ham and Passion at Wilton's Music Hall, London, on 21st February, on a two-night run. We are delighted that the premiere was met by a terrific reaction from the audience and national, international and specialised press. Ham and Passion was excitedly reviewed by a number of publications, including The Evening Standard, Independent, Bachtrack, Londondance, DanceTabs, La Tundra,The Reviewshub, Gay Star News and more.
On premiere night, DeNada's dancers were roared back onstage for a second curtain call, and we have been overwhelmed by the amount of positive words and reactions online.
We would like to share some of these comments and thank our audience, from the heart, for their support and generosity:
"The bill is dangerous and fascinating and mirroring the real world at the moment as we struggle for our identity and sexual needs and desires. O Maria was shocking and seemingly blasphemous as well as gentle and loving - and funny too! What you can do with a leg of ham!"
Patricia Doyle, theatre director
"Gender bending blasphemous fabulousness. Plus Mary dancing like Martha. Winner. Well done all of you!"
Valentina Golfieri, dancer, choreographer and designer.
"Canarian choreographer Carlos Pons Guerra fascinates the UK. Ham and Passion starts its tour in the spectacular Wilton's Music Hall."
Ainhoa Paredes, London correspondent, Telecinco News.
"Debauchery of creativity thanks to a leg of ham, all in Ham and Passion, by choreographer Carlos Pons Guerra."
Rita A. Tudela, photo journalist, The Voice of Galicia
"Great show by DeNada at Wilton's Music Hall. Really powerful, provocative and a little disturbing!(In a good way). Congrats Carlos Pons Guerra"
Toby Batley, dancer
"Congrats on Ham and Passion, DeNada- Spanish music with very edgy church choreography- taking risks in dance."
Claudia Redmond, broadcast journalist
"More fight-flirt dancing on our stage please! A beautiful tribute to the bravery of drag queens in Civil War Spain!"
Amy Wilx
Theatre Bench
"This was wonderful last night. Absurdist, anarchic, angst-filled dance from a brilliant Spanish company. Dressed to the nines by Ryan Laight."
Alan Turkington
"Loved DeNada's Ham and passion in the beautiful setting of Wilton's Music Hall, featuring stunning performances from a leg of ham and the three dancers. So great"
Bella Eacott
"What a fabulous evening. Loved and was obsessed with the handography! Bravo"
Saba Ali
"Last night, Ham & Passion at Wiltons. Dance needs more gender-swapped, boundary pushing, provocative...whatever it was, with sequins. So bold and assured. Really grabs you by the salamis…Carlos Pons Guerra is, for sure, a twisted, mad, sorcerer of a choreographer"
Hannah Young
"Just one word for tonight's performance of DeNada's Ham and Passion: INCREDIBLE. Thank you Carlos Pons Guerra and cast for such a beautiful piece."
Cygnet Theatre
"Beautiful work- dark, funny and very visual!"
Maria Falconer, photographer
"Intricate, tender, playful, poignant. Ham and Passion did not disappoint tonight. Outstanding."

ROWAN Vine said all that mattered to Blues was clinching promotion - then going for the Championship title.
A four-point gap between table-topping Blues and third place, where the play-off zone begins, has been created after the weekend results.
"It is a massive thing for us especially as we still have a game in hand," said Vine, who was instrumental in Blues' defeat of Cardiff City yesterday. "Hopefully we can get the wins we need against the big teams and try and put a bit of daylight between us and the third-placed team and then we can think about going on to win the league.
"Everyone knows that getting promoted is the first thing. Winning the league would be a massive bonus and we all want to do that as well, but just getting up is what matters."
The striker said Blues' troublesome pitch would not be used as an excuse.
Yesterday, constant rain made it waterlogged in the second half and, with rain forecast on Friday when Derby County visit, there could be similar problems. The striker said: "We
have got to deal with the pitch. It is another thing we have got to deal with. We are not going to make any excuses about it. It's the same for both teams so whoever wants to win the battle more, is going to win.
"We showed good spirit and strength and we got the victory."
There were comic moments, not least when Gary McSheffrey broke through on the left-hand side of the area, but got bogged down - literally.
"There was one incident when Gary got in the box and the ball stopped. I was going to throw him a rubber ring," said Vine. "I wanted him to square it but I could see the puddle as he was coming into the box and he just rolled it into the puddle and that was it. It is laughable really, but if it had been 0-0 we would have been fuming."
Vine added: "The pitch has been all right. It's been getting there and then the weather yesterday did not help us one bit.
"Obviously on a pitch like that which is trying to settle down, rain like that and playing on it is not going to do it any good at all. We will see what the ground staff can do before Friday."

How Can We Help?
After 25 years, ACR Radiation Oncology Accreditation is still the gold standard.
If you represent a radiation oncology practice and want to show patients, communities, payers, and physicians that you're dedicated to providing the highest quality care, where do you turn?
For more than 25 years, the answer for more than 400 groups has been the ACR and its Radiation Oncology Accreditation program.
In fact, radiation oncology was among the first subspecialties for which the College developed an accreditation process. Since then, this critical subspecialty has evolved considerably, and the Committee on Radiation Oncology Practice Accreditation has kept pace with this evolution while remaining committed to the education and promotion of safety and quality.
Dedication Accreditation Team
"This is volunteer work," says Patrick D. Conway, MD, FACR, committee chair and radiation oncologist at Gundersen Lutheran Health System in La Crosse, Wisc. "It's something that resonates deeply with all of the members of the committee — we're here to serve the individuals and facilities that want to improve the safety and quality of care delivered."
The accreditation program itself is also voluntary. Facility representatives begin the process by completing an application at www.acr.org/accred. From there, an on-site survey is scheduled. "This is the way that ACR accreditation adds value [to practices]," says Conway. "We provide a third-party, in-depth evaluation of the care being delivered." But it's not a finger-wagging session. As Conway, who has participated in more than 50 facility visits, notes, "It's not a punitive assessment."
During a typical preplanned site visit, a medical physicist and radiation oncologist review, among other data, charts of recent patients, the group's quality improvement program, and technical aspects of treatment. This board-certified team also conducts interviews with key personnel such as the medical director. The entire visit is usually completed in one day.
"The whole process if very collegial," says Conway. "We're there to help, and we're there to learn. I get the impression that most of these folks look forward to seeing our on-site team and receiving ideas on how to enhance and improve their practices. I know that's how I feel [when our facility is reviewed]."
Conway also finds that many of the groups pursuing accreditation have already made improvements prior to the on-site visit. "Clearly, this step of becoming ACR accredited is used, in such cases, to further promote quality and safety within all of the practice's personnel," he adds. And although he shares the responsibility of conducting these surveys with other committee members, it's Conway's name that goes on every report, regardless of the outcome. "In this leadership position, I can help chart a path for the programmatic development of the accreditation program," he says.
Keeping Up With Technology
Part of that path is determined by shifts in technology. And though technology can change quickly — for example, the development of intensity modulated radiation therapy, which Conway feels is the most significant radiation oncology advancement in the last decade — the accreditation committee members stay on top of new developments. This dedication to "what's new" is in part due to the committee's close connection to the ACR Committee on Guidelines and Standards. "As technology evolves, this other committee creates guidelines for radiation oncology," Conway explains. "We work closely with these guidelines and standards to help facilities meet a certain level of quality required for accreditation."
Although his term as chair was scheduled to end this spring, Conway will stay on in this role and continue to conduct site surveys and meet dedicated radiation oncologists, physicists, and other staff. Meanwhile, accreditation applicants will see his name on their reports, which will hopefully also say, "Welcome to the ACR Family of Accredited Facilities."

SureCrete's SureSpray Concrete Overlay Mix is a self-bonding, single component cementitious coating for texturing interior and exterior concrete surfaces.
Use SureSpray On
No other bag mix lends itself to such an enormous range of applications, variations, and alternatives like SureSpray Concrete Overlay Mix does. SureSpray was designed to be applied with a hopper gun, but can just as easily be troweled or squeegeed in place. Restoration, repair, resurfacing, architectural accenting, surface protection, and creating slip resistance surfaces over existing concrete are all possible with SureSpray. Special copolymers create adhesion and flexibility essential in a thin overlay.
SureSpray's versatility is one of it's strongest qualities and allows it to be applied in a variety of fashions to create a wide array of designs and techniques. Able to be applied with a trowel, squeegee or sprayer, the possible textures are nearly limitless. Highly skilled applicators will be able to carry one product in their inventory to perform many different looks and texture designs for their customers. This will help your company to stay more "mobile" and be able to get on and off of job sites faster without having to make those pesky runs to the local supply store. As a homeowner SureSpray can be easily manipulated to create beautiful textured surfaces to suite any interior or exterior style.
Surface Preparation
The principles for surface preparation for SureSpray are aligned with other cement-based overlays placed on concrete and remain constant; the substrate must be:
Profiled: Proper profile should follow the standard established by the International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI) Technical Guideline no. 03732 for Concrete Surface Profile (CSP). The established profile is categorized as CSP-1 through CSP-4.
The most common means to properly profile many concrete slabs (especially exterior slabs) is through the use a pressure washer equipped with a turbo-tip and the use of SCR (see SCR TDS). Some concrete slabs that are hard troweled or that are not sound may require more aggressive profiling through diamond grinding or shot blasting. Customarily profiling is not required for application over another cement- based overlay.
Upon surface preparation, some areas may require patching prior to application of SureSpray. Flash Patch or Deep Level is an excellent choice as a patching product to restore concrete to a sound state. Refer to Flash Patch or Deep Level TDS.
Crack Treatment / Construction Joints
Cracks may require treatment: Refer to SCT-22 Crack and Spall Treatment and SCT-EP Epoxy Crack Treatment TDS to evaluate crack as static or structural to set expectation of treatment.
Never bridge SureSpray across any joint in concrete. Construction Joints in concrete have sufficient movement to "telegraph" through SureSpray applications. Large expansive slabs should have planned appropriate flexible caulks to allow for this movement.
Mixing and Handling
Due to SureSpray's diverse applications, there can be a significant difference in water demand between systems. Weather conditions and porosity of substrate will affect water demand as well. Approximate water demands for different systems per 50 pound (22.7 kg) bag SureSpray = 4 – 6 quarts (3.8 – 5.7 liters).
While water demands vary the steps for mixing remain constant:
Base Coat
All SureSpray applications are recommended to have a base coat. Base coats may be sprayed or troweled/squeegeed.
Spray – utilizing a hopper gun such as Marshalltown Sharpshooter Hopper gun
Trowel / Squeegee
(Optional) Stencils and grout tape patterns
Finish Coat
Secondary Coloring
Depending upon the application selected, secondary coloring will provide aesthetic appeal to a project.
(Note: Before secondary coloring, the finish coat must dry sufficiently to bear the foot traffic of the applicator, approximately 2 – 6 hours [depending upon weather]. Scrape the surface of finish coat with a heavy-duty floor scraper and remove any loose material.)
To complete a SureSpray project sealing is required. While multi-colored, "designer finishes" may be sealed clear, for the simple single color projects, a pigmented sealer will yield the most appealing results.
Exterior jobs will require the sealing with an acrylic sealer, due to its vapor permeability. Excellent choices for exterior sealer include:
Refer to the appropriate TDS for details.
For interior jobs there are more sealer choices available, as customarily vapor permeability is not a consideration. The above listed sealers will work fine as interior sealers, but other sealers with enhanced durability properties include:
(Note: if secondary coloring is not utilized before sealing, scrape the surface of finish coat with a scraper and remove any loose material.)
Slip Resistance
Two recognized US agencies have issued directives on minimum coefficient of friction, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and Department of Justice through the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act). ADA is the more stringent of the two. ADA directs that accessible walkways have a minimum coefficient of friction of 0.6. Ramps have been directed to be 0.8. The applicator assumes the responsibility to meet these standards. Especially exterior surfaces or surfaces that may become wet, oily, or greasy require attention. Refer SureGrip (Additive) TDS and its accompanying coefficient of friction table.
Suitability Sample
Due to condition specific sites, always prepare an adequate number of test areas. Wear protection system and aesthetic suitability for products' intended use should be included. On site sample approval is especially critical on substantial, heavy traffic situation or custom coloration.
Clean Up
Before SureSpray dries; spills and tools can be cleaned up with water.
Contact your local government household hazardous waste coordinator for information on disposal of unused product.

Crescent examining other apartment complexes after floor problem forces residents out
Charlotte-based developer Crescent Communities is examining construction at some of its local apartment complexes after its decision Tuesday to move all residents out of the Circle University City apartments to fix problems with floor construction.
Crescent said the problems at Circle University, a 187-unit student housing complex across from UNC Charlotte's main entrance, appear to stem from a defect in floor trusses used at the complex, which opened last year. Ben Collins, Crescent's senior vice president for the mid-Atlantic, called the situation "highly unusual."
"We've discovered what we think is a manufacturer's defect," Collins said. He declined to identify the manufacturer of the floor trusses, and the company name is not listed in county inspection records.
Collins said Crescent, one of Charlotte's most prolific apartment developers in recent years, is trying to determine whether there are problems at other sites with floor trusses similar to those at Circle University. Crescent has hired a forensic structural engineer for its review.
"This is an issue that is high on our radar screens," Collins said. "We're undertaking these measures out of an abundance of caution. We've been advised no safety issues exist in the buildings today."
Adolfson & Peterson, the general contractor who constructed the Circle University building, said in a statement that the company is aware of the issue and "has been working with our client and their design team to determine the root cause and next steps," but it declined to comment further.
Charlotte is in the midst of the city's biggest ever apartment-building boom, with more than 10,400 units under construction and another 10,000 planned to follow. The surge of new apartments, many of them four- or five-story buildings with wood-frame construction, similar to Circle University, is evident throughout Charlotte but is concentrated uptown and in surrounding neighborhoods.
Crescent is building apartment complexes in Dilworth and SouthPark, and is planning to build hundreds more apartments, a Whole Foods, up to three hotels and a 27-story office tower uptown. The company is also planning an apartment and retail development in NoDa. In recent years, Crescent has completed the Circle University complex and the Alexander Village at University Research Park in Charlotte.
Engineer will draw up plan
Jim Bartl, Mecklenburg County's code enforcement director, said the North Carolina-licensed engineer hired by Crescent is assessing the problem at Circle University and will likely draw up a plan for making repairs. Crescent will need a county building permit to do the work.
The county would then inspect the work or rely on the engineer to make the check, Bartl said.
"My personal bias is I am most comfortable if the person who actually designed the solution checks the work to make sure it's exactly the way he wanted it," Bartl said. "We'll discuss in-house the best way before we actually cut the permit and come to an agreement with them."
The county successfully used a similar strategy when a roof at SouthPark Mall collapsed in 2012, he said.
Manufactured floor trusses are built in off-site facilities and are examined by third-party inspectors there, Bartl said. County inspectors then make sure the trusses are installed according to the engineer's design.
"We are leaning very heavily on a process set up by the state of North Carolina, with the inspectors being in the factory," he said. Trusses made off-site have been popular for more than a decade, he said. "It's not unusual."
Kerry Hall, a spokeswoman for the N.C. Department of Insurance, which oversees the state building code, said the agency has not been involved with the situation at the Crescent apartment building.
Speaking generally, Hall said the architect or builder of the project would have had to submit plans to the county that included truss drawings certified by a North Carolina-licensed engineer that showed the trusses would meet load criteria under the building code.
County inspectors would then have been responsible for checking the construction. She did not immediately respond to questions about how trusses would be inspected at the factory.
Problems started at a party
The floor issues at Circle University first came to light in January, when two students told the Niner Times student newspaper that part of their ceiling caved in during a party in the room above. No one was hurt, and a Crescent spokeswoman said damage was cosmetic. County inspection records show that Crescent requested an inspection in February after structural damage to the floor system was found in units 302 and 402.
"Floor system in the kitchen/main room area damaged apparently as a result of 80+ people jumping up-and-down on the floor," the records say. "Floor area appears to be depressed approximately an inch to an inch and a half."
The county posted "unsafe building/unit" signs on both units, and the owner was told a permit was required for repairs. Inspectors have made three more visits to the site since then, records show.
On Tuesday, Crescent notified residents they have to leave the building by June 2. The company is providing double-occupancy hotel rooms to residents who renewed their leases, as well as $500, storage for their items and a $140-a-week stipend for any extra expenses. Crescent says it will be making "modifications" to fix any problems with the floors in June and July, and the apartment complex will be ready for occupancy again by the start of next school year.
Collins said the company doesn't yet know whether there was a problem with the floor trusses when they were installed or whether the problems cropped up later. He said the Circle University was built to meet all required building codes.
"It is unclear at this point in time whether this issue existed at the time of construction or happened since then," Collins said. "This is the first time in my career I have seen something like this materialize."

Patent ductus arteriosus and its symptoms in detail
Posted on Thursday, April 10th, 2014 at 4:48 pm by Williams Hart
While the fetus develops inside the mother's womb, the pulmonary artery connects directly to the aorta for blood circulation and oxygen delivery. This normal connection is called ductus arteriosus, which closes hours or days upon birth. However, there are instances when ductus arteriosus fails to close within the specified amount of time, leading to a congenital heart defect called patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).
Babies with this congenital heart malformation may experience one or more of these PDA symptoms:
- Difficulty eating
- Stunted or poor growth
- Weakness
- Bluish-colored skin
- Too much sweating during activities, such as feeding
- Trouble breathing
- Fast heart rate
Zoloft, an anti-depressant that affects the absorption of folic acid, which is essential for the prevention of birth defects, is known to increase the risk of patent ductus arteriosus among babies exposed to it while in their mother's womb. If your baby has been a victim of this dangerous drug, evaluate your legal options by speaking with a lawyer from Williams Hart. You may reach us anytime at (713) 352-7071.

Topic Page: Murmansk
(mʊrmänsk'), city (1989 pop. 468,000), capital of Murmansk region, NW European Russia, on the Kola Gulf of the Barents Sea. It is the terminus of the Northeast Passage and the world's largest city N of the Arctic Circle, with a polar research institute. For many years this ice-free port was a leading Soviet freight port, a base for fishing fleets, a major naval base, and the main home port of the Russian nuclear submarine fleet. Until the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the loss of state funding, Murmansk was a thriving industrial, commercial, and shipping center. Now the formerly active railroad terminus linked with Moscow and St. Petersburg has seen train traffic decrease by half. Its fish canneries, shipyards, textile factories, breweries, and sawmills have laid off workers, the commercial fleets have been sold for scrap or land their catch outside Russia, and the nuclear submarines relocated.
Murmansk was only a small village before World War I. The port and its rail line inland from Petrograd (now St. Petersburg) were built in 1915–16, when the Central Powers cut off the Russian Baltic and Black Sea supply routes. Allied forces occupied the Murmansk area from 1918 to 1920, during the Russian civil war. A major World War II supply base and port for Anglo-American convoys, Murmansk was bombarded by the Germans. During the 1970s and 80s, the Sea of Murmansk was the dump site for the exhausted cores of Soviet nuclear reactors. Murmansk oblast, with rich apatite and nickel mines, was enlarged after World War II through the incorporation of former Finnish territories, notably Petsamo (Pechenga).

We don't fully appreciate the impact of decades of ready-to-eat fast, delivered and frozen foods until you get into the farm business model space that we occupy. Then it hits you – we as a nation are very talented warmer-uppers. Many among us think of that as "cooking". We will never forget the family that signed up, received their first delivery, then called to advise us that "none of this is cooked!" That was their first and last delivery. Couldn't deal with cooking. The concept was completely foreign to them.
It only states the obvious to note that most of you are either already established cooks or you are eager learners who realize that cooking and eating fresh clean food is one of life's great pleasures. But sometimes we find the in-betweener; someone who can do the easy stuff like ground meat, but will not learn the more nuanced recipes like pot roast or Osso Buco. These are some of my favorite dishes because they include many varieties of vegetables and the meats are the most nutritious of all of the cuts because they are heavily worked muscles. But that also makes them the toughest if not cooked to a fork-tender state. You accomplish fork-tender in any one of three ways: 2 – 3 hours in a Dutch oven, overnight in your slow cooker, or about 40-60 minutes in your digital pressure cooker. Check the JVF Cooking Book for details. Extend your knowledge and pleasure at the same time. Let there be cooks!

Read the first section of the report below:
Dear friends,
It is a great pleasure of mine to welcome you all to this Council meeting here in Puerto Vallarta.
I would like to start by expressing my thanks to you all for being here.
This Council meeting comes at a very important time for World Sailing, and I hope that our discussions over the next two days will provide some insights for us, our organisation and the sport of sailing.
As you will have seen, our theme for this year's Conference is Uniting the Sport and, as the Council, this must start with us.
We have a great opportunity, and responsibility, to lead our sport to a new, more successful future.
And by working together and using the expertise and knowledge that we have, I have no doubt that this can be achieved.
Many of you will remember very clearly where we were one year ago, with many MNAs expressing concern at the lack of progress being made. We are a broad sport representing many disciplines, creating different ideas, visions and priorities.
It is totally clear that the agreement we made in May to deliver a strategy document for World Sailing by the next Mid-Year meeting is crucial for setting a clear path including all disciplines from grass roots to elite.
The past year, we have made good progress, but we need to do much more.
Firstly, we cannot take our place in the Olympic Games for granted.
We must do more to align ourselves with the Olympic Movement, being more proactive in developing our sport in line with Olympic Agenda 2020, including gender equality and youth participation.
As a sport, we are confirmed for Paris 2024, - but the decisions we are making now, are fundamental to a strong proposition for our 10 Olympic events for keeping the platform intact.
Mixed events have been a new and uplifting part of Agenda 2020. We know this is something which cane excel our women's participation and we also know this is a recommendation that can benefit our sport which hasn't been a possibility in the past.
To strengthen our relationship with the IOC we have invited IOC members to visit the Worlds in Aarhus and I am pleased to say that we have confirmed visitors.
We must also continue the strong momentum, to make sure that Para Sailing is fully integrated in our framework and has the strongest possible bid for returning to the Paralympics in 2024.
We have a major part of our sport, racing keelboats with strong development plans for the future, America's Cup, Volvo Ocean Racing, Vendee Globe and the two big rating systems, ORC and IRC, now also combining forces to create a combined World Championship.
On top World Sailing wants to have a World Championship for offshore one design. All this to keep on developing a major part of our sport, keelboat sailing.
Secondly, we can do more to make our sport even more accessible for all age groups, - but with clear empathise on youth.
It also means extending our development programmes. We must build upon the success of the Emerging Nations Programme and spread our sport to new sailing nations.
World Sailing President Kim Andersen was speaking at the meeting of World Sailing's Council at the 2017 Annual Conference in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

Offenses are not shown as "facts" or as a way of returning to the past, but in a live, real process with emotional experiences with the inherent spirit of the characters ' drama. The main negative character in this series is not just a cold-blooded subject who crosses the rules and moves according to the laws of universal evil, but an ordinary character who has his own "truth" and Outlook on life, who has an active position in the series, not without drama. Most interesting is that, breaking offenders, Fitz often come to unpleasant conclusions about the true nature and essence of man. And watching his judgments and provocative actions is a real pleasure, because he is either very far from the truth, or deeply mired in it.

Hello, and welcome to the Whitehall Church of Christ and our web page. I hope you will find in these pages information to stimulate you to walk through the doors that lead into our building.
My name is Jeffrey Dillinger and I am the preacher for the Whitehall Church of Christ. I have been with this congregation since 1997. I was only 30 years old when my wife and I moved here with our two young children. Since being here we have been blessed with two more children. Our personal family has grown and so has our church family. We hope you will grow with us. By the way, call me Jeffrey. In Churches of Christ, we're not big on titles. I am not the "pastor" or the "reverend"; I am simply a person like you and therefore like to be called by my name. We believe that in the church everyone is equal so we try to not use titles that lift up one person over another.
My desire is to minister to the people God brings to our congregation. I enjoy spending time with people both socially and spiritually. I seek to visit most people who visit us. I think that if you took the time to come and worship with us, then I want to take the time to come and visit with you. Don't worry, I would call first so as to let you determine the best time for a visit, if you desire one. Oftentimes, people come to "check us out" because of something happening in their life. It might be that they just moved to the area and are looking for a new church home; it might be they just got married or have children and want to raise them in a church environment; or sometimes people come because they are hurting emotionally or grieving and simply want to be with God's people and soak in some of God's love. Whatever your needs, we would like to try and meet them with God's help.
The church here is like a large family. With about 110 people attending most Sunday mornings, we are big enough to do lots of things and small enough to know everyone. We have two men who serve as our elders and set the spiritual tone of the congregation and three men who serve as deacons over areas of education, activities, and finance. We have great classes for kids and adults every Sunday morning at 9:30 and Wednesday night at 7:30. Sunday school and Wednesday nights are not just for kids, adults need time to grow and learn also. So bring the whole family and study God's word with us.
I have said that "every saint has a past and every sinner has a future." That is true. There is no one too bad to come and worship, and no one so good they don't need to. We all need one another. So come and meet us. You don't even have to dress up! Most people you meet will simply be in same type of clothes they wear to the office. There are a few of us (me being one) who are often in a suit and tie, but most are simply in something comfortable. Remember, this is family, not an elite social club. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know you better.
Jeffrey Dillinger

Marcus Todd Film Enclave
West Side Railway Yards, 515 W 33rd Street, Manhattan, NYC
The project describes a new cinematic landscape, which draws threads of film production, consumption and housing together into a complex and multilayered public space in Manhattan's far west side Set over a 13-acre rail yard, seven large new soundstages for New York's booming film industry are hung beneath a fragmented artificial landscape, containing within its depth the city's 'bureaucracy of film', and accommodating knots of dense set-based housing above. The proposal challenges the orthodox and generic redevelopment scheme which is currently awaiting construction, to provide an alternative, infrastructure-based, framework for the site. It proposes an architecture that is not tall and shiny, but instead horizontal and fuzzy.
The design engages with cinematic techniques using optical and spatial strategies to build syncretic enclaves within the artificial landscape. Strategies of controlled and forced perspective, reflection and superimposition work in service of the programming, to enrich the architecture. Previous work on 'Hitchcockian domesticity' informs the design of the housing component of the scheme, with the contingent nature of film set construction reflected in the clusters of housing.
