Everywhere you look it seems most men are wearing black coats. Heck even women's coats, girls winter jackets and men leather coats are usually black. Why is it such a popular color?
The reasons are several. First black is the universally neutral color. Meaning its so neutral that it literally goes with any other color you try to match with it.Combine it with any other common winter color, such a grey, green, brown and white, and you still get a wonderful neutral palette. Black never goes out of style. Just look at photographs from the last one hundred years and notice what colors people have worn over the decades. The color that dominates most photographs is usually black, and that's not just because many of the photographs are black & white themselves!
In the winter, most coats that you'll see most of the time are usually black. Black is also is easier to clean, and if you can't get to a dry cleaner you're in luck - with black coats stains are usually harder to spot, and therefore you can get away longer without the hassle of actually cleaning the jacket.
Black contrasts wonderfully with the snow. Look around in the sea of white and when your lost in a blizzard its much easier to find your companion if he's wearing black. Men prefer black in the winter because black is the symbol of warmth, as is red. You won't catch men wearing black in the summer too often. Women's winter coats and girls winter coats, on the other hand, usually have more vibrant colors associated such as white, red, grey, etc. Even though women generally prefer more vibrant colors, they also happen to look smashing in their black winter coats too.
Mens leather coats also tend to be black, i've got a black mens leather coat myself. i prefer my brown mens leather coat, only because it has the the classic worn out look. London fog jackets tend to come in black, grey or beige, though I don't own one of these myself these tend to be much more common in England where winters are mild and the london fog coat can service as a suitable substitute to the western mens coat.
So when shopping for a mens winter coat, or any winter coat, such a womens, mens, girls or london fog, you can never go wrong buying black. It's stylish, matches with everything, and neutral colors are usually cheaper too.

I went on a field trip to Crafty Planet with my mom and a friend and we really hit the jackpot. First of all, you should know that I always wanted to be Nancy Drew, girl detective, when I grew up. I cruised through all the Nancy Drew books my elementary school had to offer as soon as I was allowed into the chapter books section and as soon as I was done, I'd start back at #1. At 7 years old, I was tracking down missing library books for classmates so they didn't get in trouble. My love for Nancy's stories is one thing I just never grew out of. I collect the books now, old and older copies as well as the new reprints. So imagine my overwhelming joy when I discovered that Crafty Planet had Nancy Drew fabric.
It was fate, it was destiny. I got a yard of the book cover panels and a yard of the faces with quotes, unsure of what my glorious find would be. It had to be a skirt, though. A skirt that twirled and made the 7 year old in me want to solve mysteries, own a Mustang, and fall in love with dreamy college man Ned Nickerson. I trimmed and strategically cut. I grabbed scraps from my stash and worked them in.
I sewed it together like a quilt, first in strips and then put the strips together. I added the waistband and a little bit of topstitching, and finally the zipper. It was finished–and it twirled.
I wore it to work today and made people nostalgic, as Nancy tends to do. The fit is good and it's incredibly comfortable. I've got a few yards of cotton on my shelves that are definitely going to become more of these.

About Kristin
Owner and designer Kristin Klein's creative flair was confirmed when she was accepted to dance with the Boston Ballet Company at 11 years of age. KVK Designs started with an idea and a necklace says Kristin. "I was an art major in college, and have always been enamored by the art and craft of jewelry design, a skill that I learned through books, jewelry making classes and experimentation. My labor of love began in 1991 when I acquired a piece of Pyrite from New Mexico. Once in hand, I promptly turned it into my first unique necklace creation. It wasn't long before many of my friends and family were buying my creations; they loved wearing my original designs."
While working as the manager of a small gift boutique in 1995, she was wearing one of her original pieces. When the owner approached her about where she had gotten her unusual necklace, she told her that she had designed it. That is when she had her first official order, and started designing necklaces for her store. Later, she branched out on her own selling her necklaces to gift and clothing boutiques. Kristin founded her first online store KVK Designs Natural Stone Jewelry (www.kvkdesigns.com) in the spring of 2000 to bring together her love of art and natural jewelry design to create jewelry pieces that are unique and beautifully made. "I love the exquisite beauty of nature as it expands and enriches the senses".
Kristin's new line KVK Vintage sells Antique Key, Inspiring, Bohemian and Vintage Jewelry. Fair Trade Accessories & Home Decor. "I am a huge antique collector and love anything natural, vintage or bohemian." I wanted to create a jewelry line that brings together my love of antiques and bohemian fashion, and allows the wearer a piece that has meaning and is special to them that they hold near and dear to their heart". "I hope you enjoy my beautiful jewelry and accessories, that they inspire you and you enjoy wearing them for years to come!!!

A Canadian actress has been convicted of stalking Hollywood star Alec Baldwin in New York City.
A Manhattan judge issued the verdict on Thursday, finding Genevieve Sabourin guilty of stalking, attempted aggravated harassment, harassment and attempted contempt of court.
At the trial, Baldwin had testified that the actress had turned his life into a nightmare after they met once for dinner.
The actor says she besieged him with unwanted phone calls and emails and started showing up at his homes and at public events.
In his summing up to the judge, defence lawyer Todd Spodek said Sabourin had a legitimate, brief romance with Baldwin. He complained that Baldwin was using the court system to "sort out his relationships".
The judge sentenced Sabourin to six months in jail. That is on top of 30 days she already received for disrupting court proceedings.

T likes…Boden's "Shaggy Lined Zip-Through"
So cozy - and ours has withstood over a year of almost daily wear and tear. We got T the 2-3 when she was just under a year old – the sizing is humungous so T wasn't able to wear it a few months after her second birthday, but she loved wearing it once it fit. She's had a growth spurt and it's starting to get short on the sleeves, so we're contemplating what to get her next (probably as a Christmas present). H likes the purple stars, I the rust red, and T the blue 'cause it's like the one she has.

Eco-Rabbi Jack Reichert Talks Green God Shop
Traditional Jews read the entire Bible once a year. Every week a new section of the Torah (Bible) is read and within that portion, Jews try and extrapolate meaning from it and relate it to contemporary events and personal experiences. And of course, they look for ways to be better people. Everyone can see something different in the Torah and it never dates. That's the beauty of it, according to traditional Jews.
The Jewish religion is governed by 613 commandments, and some of them are directly related to environmentalism and the protection of animal rights. Eco-Rabbi (aka Jack Reichert) is a philosophy student who is looking at some of these commandments (mitzvote in Hebrew), and also the weekly readings and giving them green context.
Jack has been looking at the weekly portion and is suggesting what we can learn from it. A few weeks ago, he wrote about "Parashat Hukat" and why the springs suddenly went dry. He writes:
Last week, God took care of the waste in the camp. This week Moses hits the rock. The Israelites had been traveling in the desert for roughly forty years, and Miriam, the sister of Moses and Aaron, dies. After Miriam dies suddenly the People of Israel lack water. Commentaries explain that in Miriam's merit a spring followed the Israelites around, miraculously, during their travels. Now that she had passed on, the spring has dried up.
God commands Moses to gather the people in order to show them a miracle. Moses is supposed to speak to a rock and water will flow out of it. When Moses stands up before the people he loses his temper and hits the rock instead, water still flows from the rock but God is angry.
The previous time that the people of Israel did not have water God commanded Moses to hit the rock. But this time God commanded Moses to speak to the rock. God tells Moses that is as a result of his not bringing water in the manner in which he was commanded, he would not be allowed to bring the Israelites into Israel.
We can learn much from this story. Several commentaries extrapolate various educational models from this story, being forceful vs. being pleasant with your students. I believe that we can learn about not just how we should treat students, but how we should treat our land.
At the beginning the Israelites needed water, they were straight out of Egypt and the most important issue was survival. Moses was told to hit the rock in order to extract water. And that was fine.
At this point in the story God has been supporting the People of Israel for almost forty years. They should be able to trust him by now. They should be more mature. And so, it is important for Moses to show the people the path of peace.
At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution it was important to explore our capabilities. It would have been better to do so without destroying everything in our path. But I am not sure if we would have come so far had we been so careful.
Similarly, at this point, hybrid cars are not quite as eco-friendly as we think. The process of building the engine does so much damage to our environment that it almost does not make sense to buy them. But without the technology we would not be able to take the next step: a true eco-friendly car. Now that we have reached a level of maturity we have to learn how to speak to the land, and not hit it. If we cannot learn to do this we will not merit staying on our planet.

Paintbrush earrings
Remember the One World One Heart event? This is a prize I was lucky enough to win. These cute little paintbrush earrings are by Gemma at A Desert Garden. They are very appropriate since I have been attempting to work on some paintings this weekend. (I haven't gone so far as to dip my ear into the paint, although I have gotten my hair and sleeves into it.) Thank you so much for the lovely prize, Gemma!

I love Christmas lights.
I love Christmas songs.
I love advent calendars (like you couldn't guess that one was coming).
I love Christmas trees.
I love seeing family and friends during the holidays.
I love pie.
The Christmas season seems to start earlier every year. This week alone we were invited to five Christmas parties. Next week, we have another four.
And then Christmas, the week after that.
(As if that wasn't enough, half the people in my family have December birthdays. Off the top of my head, I count seven.)
It's too much for me, so I am officially throwing up my hands.
My New Christmas Strategy
Reduce: I've already cancelled out on two parties this week, and I'll have to cancel one next week also.
Simplify: I won't be making every dish to pass myself. Sometimes, store-bought will have to do.
Dare to be different: on the 24th, we'll have our second annual Christmas Eve Taco Dinner. Easy prep, the kids loved it last time, and there was more time for each other.
What tips do you have to make the holiday season less stressful?

1. Define your financial goals
While this seems like an obvious place to start, defining your financial goals is the most important step you can take to get rid of unnecessary expenses. Unfortunately, it's also the step that people often have a habit of skipping. Knowing how to set S.M.A.R.T. financial goals will help you define your own.
Saving up for a down payment on a home? Rather than just "setting a little money aside," find out what a reasonable down payment is for your financial situation. Then, you can decide on a set amount to save each month and know how long it will take to reach your goal. You can even set up automatic transfers to make sure this amount goes into a separate savings account on the same day each month.
Defining financial goals also takes the stress out of budgeting—since you know where your money is going and why—and puts your spending into perspective. Need help getting started? Our friendly personal bankers are here for you. Chat with one of us online or in person today!
2. Evaluate your current spending habits
Making a purchase is as easy as swiping your card—without even looking at the amount spent. While convenient, this time-saving method can be costing you money. After you've defined your financial goals, check your statement for when, where, and how much of your money is being spent. More than likely, you'll find places where you can cut back (or quit spending altogether).
For example, a $3 coffee purchase on the way to work every morning adds up quickly:
$3 x 5 days per week x 50 weeks (excluding vacation and holidays) = $750 per year
While that's only a rough estimate, the numbers don't lie. And that's not to say you should never indulge. However, evaluating your spending habits can help you pinpoint the seemingly harmless expenses that are cluttering up your account and costing you more than you realize.
3. Know what you owe
Debt and bills—nobody likes to think about them, but that doesn't make either one go away. After evaluating what you can cut from your spending, focus on those expenses that have to be paid. You can even allocate some of the freed-up funds toward these required payments, which helps pay them off faster.
Knowing what you owe and where also helps you plan ahead. Most bills allow you to set up automatic transfers so you can ensure each one is paid on time, every time. Applications such as Mint securely house your bills, payments, and bank account information so you can easily keep and track them all in one place.
4. Set a budget
After you've defined goals and prioritized expenses, set a budget for the remainder of your funds. Organizing your spending habits gives purpose to your spending, so you never feel like you're simply "throwing your money away." You won't have to stress about being able to afford that new pair of shoes when using the money you've been saving specifically for updating your wardrobe.
Additionally, having an allotted spending amount makes you more price-conscious when making purchases—and that saves you money.
5. Cut the credit card use
Don't be deceived by the usefulness of credit cards. Though a good resource in tight situations, they're known for luring cardholders into spending money they don't have. We recommend keeping one on hand for emergency expenses, but make sure you define what qualifies as an emergency expense.
Being a responsible credit card holder also means you'll have one less expense to pay each month. As a result, you'll have a less cluttered bank account as well as an improved credit score.
6. Monitor your statement
Everybody makes mistakes, and businesses are no exception. Whether your direct deposit didn't transfer correctly or the convenience store charged you twice for your candy bar, those mistakes can cost you.
Keep an eye on your bank statement so you know when issues come up. Disputing incorrect charges is easier if you catch these issues early on. (As an added bonus, you'll also be aware of any suspicious activity before it's too late.) If you're not using them already, sign up for e-Statements to securely receive your statements online as soon as they become available. These virtual documents help you monitor your bank account, track your spending, and declutter your account—at your convenience.
Ready to clean up your bank account?
We know that, with all your other responsibilities, the financial ones are easy to put off. However, by decluttering your bank account, you can save money and become a more savvy spender. Our expert bankers are here to answer questions, give advice, and get started today. Simply call 1-877-227-7548, contact us online, or stop at one of our locations, and we'll be happy to speak with you!


text: Album Stream: Anaïs Mitchell - Young Man in America By Adam Vitcavage | February 20, 2012 | 11:00am Music Audio America Share Tweet Submit Pin Anaïs Mitchell's unique musical style has produced memorable folk albums for the past decade, exploring stories that range from simple subjects all the way to 2010's folk-opera Hadestown—a variation of a classic Greek myth. With her new album, Young Man in America, Mitchell continues to seek out richly-detailed stories, but has chosen to examine multiple angles in an epic tale throughout the different stages of the country. "I've always been interested in songwriting as a storytelling device," Mitchell explained about the album. "There's a lot of characters [on Young Man] that speak on this. There's a lot of stories, but it's not a concept record. It's more of a collection of short stories that belong in the same book." Mitchell didn't have a grand plan heading into the album, and she's adamant that she didn't choose the stories, but the stories chose her. Lyrics and characters would just appear in mid-air due to emotions she felt herself, which she channeled into telling with as much vivid detail as possible. Young Man's emotions are the soul of the record, with carefully crafted instrumentation adding a relaxed personality and flair to each of songs. Mitchell took her time on the process for this record to ensure everything she felt was portrayed exactly how she felt was deserved. She's ready to release the album on Feb. 28 via Wilderland Records/Thirty Tigers and is heading out on tour in support of Young Man.

The Pros say they can't survive without SmartPak, and as an adult amateur and mother, I have to agree! With a family to care for, I am not always able to make it to the barn, so SmartPaks have taken a load off my mind, not only when we're home, but also on the road. They're so easy, even my 2 year old daughter can feed for me. By the age of four, Cantilator had finished his first career as a race horse and was jumping with all four feet–quite literally–into his next adventure as an event horse. I knew he'd had some issues with digestion on the track, so I immediately pulled out my SmartPak catalog and checked out what was available–not to mention in my price range. After a bit of trial and error, we found the perfect set up for him: U-Gard for digestion and keeping ulcers at bay; E-Se-Mag to insure he's getting nutrients our area is deficient in; and Cosequin SP to make sure he has the longest possible career. Just a year off the track, we are preparing for our first Preliminary horse trials in the spring, with our sights sent on a 1*. With SmartPak's great selection and outstanding customer service, I know Tilly's dietary needs will always be met! Thank you!

A pipeline slurry friction loss model consisting of three regimes was initially proposed by Wilson then extended to four components consisting of fluid, pseudo-homogeneous, heterogeneous, and fully stratified regimes. The weighting technique using up to four regime-related components often works well for friction loss estimations based on simple input data and model parameters. This also holds for the Hydraulic Institute's pump performance derating procedure for settling slurries. The comparisons and discussion focus on coarse particle slurries and some cases where the modelling estimations for pipeline and pump performance were not particularly accurate

How to groom a cat and survive the experience
How to groom your cat
If you watch your cat when it is awake you wont have to wait long before she starts to wash herself.
When is a good time to groom a cat
Have you ever tried to make your cat do something that she does not want to do? I know its impossible and ends in tears, usually yours. If you need to groom your cat then don't force your attentions on her. Try and make the grooming session enjoyable for her and have her purr in delight as you groom her. It might not be the best thing to do if either you or kitty are in a bad mood- a hissing and scratching cat does not make the subject of a good groom.
Why brush a cat's hair?
I brush my hair nearly every day as it keeps it in good condition and lets the natural oils from the scalp spread through my hair. Daily brushing keeps the tangles out of my hair and stops it from matting. Cats have just the same problems with their hair as we do, but they also have the added problem of the need to remove dirt particles and probably bits of undergrowth if they are allowed outdoors.
Choosing the right brush or comb is just as difficult as choosing your own. Metal combs are really useful to do that first comb through. Start at her head and move slowly to her tail, doing only so much as she will tolerate. When you have combed her, and she has probably run off, go and find her and use a bristle brush to remove al the loose and dead hair. Many cats have really sensitive areas- like humans, so be very careful if you find one. The usual suspect areas are around her chest and her tummy.
Long haired cats need a little more care. You need to pay more attention to their legs and tummy as this is where they can get large knots. She may want more attention on her tail,if so , let it spread out on your lap and brush the tail gently so that the hair brushes out to the side.
Bathing your cat
Bath your cat only if it is really necessary.
When I was a teenager we moved into a new home which had an unguarded chimney stack. My mother's white Persian ran up the chimney and came down, black, so amidst all the furniture arriving, we had to bath the cat.
Before you start, pop down to your local pet store and buy shampoo that can be used on cats. If you use your own mild shampoo you may have problems rinsing it out, which could cause skin irritation for your cat in future days and expensive veterinarian bills for you!
Firstly, make sure that the door to the room you are in is securely fastened and that you have a couple of soft, warmed towels available.
After you have brushed her to get all of the loose hairs out, deposit her on the sink in about 4" of warm water. She will be very surprised at this point. If you have a shower or spray attachment give her a quick shower, if not, use your hand and wet her coat.
Apply the shampoo and rinse in accordance with the manufacturers instructions- make sure that you manage to rinse the last of the shampoo out.
Pick her up in the towel(now you know why a thick towel is preferred) and dry her gently- the second towel will be useful to dry yourself off when the cat shakes herself over you.
Nail Clipping
I don't recommend this. If she is an outdoors cat then she should not need it doing. My mum's current cat, Bluebell has hers done professionally- she has to, she has nine toes on each foot and it its hard to keep track of her toenails. If , like Bluebell you have nail issues visit the veterinarian , perhaps making an appointment to have her nails done when she is having her annual booster injections
Other Cat hubs
I keep brushes in various places including one here on the desk when they like to join us at the computer. I generally get a little brushing of the cats done each day that way. Same with the nail clippers. If I get one or two done at one time I consider myself lucky. I have only had to bathe them once or twice and did it in the shower stall. I must say, they were pretty good at it...not that they had much choice. At least I came out unscathed by the experience. Ha!
Great information. I wish I had read it a few years ago when I had a roommate who was alergic to my cats. If I bathed the cats, it really helped her but I was left with a bunch of scratches and sometimes even a bite.
Thanks for the great hub. I always hear people saying that it is torture for them to do anything with their cats. I say, you just haven't developed the right bond then. Once your cat has come to respect and trust you, nothing is out of the picture. I can brush, groom and bath my cat without any fuss at all.
Hi, this is great info and made me smile, I remember years ago trying to groom our cat at my mums house, she was fine to start with, but then something caught her attention and she suddenly scarpered out of my arms, leaving scratches about an inch long on each wrist! Ow! she was looking lovely, but I had plasters all over my arms! lol
You are braver than me - I wouldn't even attempt to bathe a cat! Interesting tips in cat grooming, but as you say they will only let you groom them if they want you to.
Thank you, CAST1WORKER, for this great advice. You obviously love your kitty and take exceptional care of her...good for you and yours are such lucky cats. You've given us a helpful and sensitive hub with good steps so that we can properly care for our feline friends.
UP Useful Interesting, Awesomne!!

Ken Knight
Ken Knight is a remarkable artist and a prolific award winner in traditional realist art circles who has been capturing the unique landscape of Australia for over 25 years following his first solo exhibition in 1979. Painting in the tradition of his mentors, the great impressionists of the 1890s and the tonal painters of the inter-war period he spends his creative time in the open "All the paintings have been painted on location. It's standing before the subject and responding to it that enables an impressionist artist to do his thing best."
Knight is a modern impressionist whose style and paintings "evoke the essence of the Australian landscape," according to Justin Miller, Chairman of Sotheby's Australia. "Ken's brush technique is bold and painterly, yet the mood created is reflective."

Input formats supported: bmp, ico, tga, jpg
Output formats supported: bmp, jpg
You can specify the compression level when saving as jpg.
The wbitToTiff dll is somewhat more limited. It can convert bmp files to tif files. TIFF stands for "Tagged Image File Format". You don't have to specify the path, if you don't it will automatically look for and save files in the current directory where your game is.
Both dll's come with an example in 5.0 format, but I expect them to work under any later version as well.
They won't work under 4.x. If you require this, alert me, and I will fix the problem, it's just a formality.

Insert clip art. Again, there are a lot of options for free clip art on TpT. You want to download them and save them to your computer. Then you can open your folder, right click the image and "copy," then paste onto your page. Many clip artists will include both JPG and PNG images. I personally like to use PNG images. These will have a clear background instead of a white box behind them. If you do decide to sell your work, make sure you create a credits page showing which clip artists you used! There are many great examples online, or even in TpT products you own.
How to Create Fun Teaching Worksheets. How do you create fun teaching worksheets? Do fun and worksheets even belong in the same sentence together? Let's face it. Most students don't want to sit around doing worksheets. However, sometimes it's necessary to have students complete a worksheet to practice a skill or assess their skills. When this is the case, you can still make it fun for students by utilizing these tips. Games, Make the experience fun by turning the lesson into a teaching game. For example, students could roll dice to determine what activities they need to do or complete a puzzle. Reward students with points for discovering the correct answers or locating mistakes on the assignment. You could even have students make mistakes on purpose, so other students can find them and correct them.

Ethics Advisory Opinion No. 51
February 5, 2001
Issued By: City Attorney's Office
Whether the company in which a member of the Planning Commission owns more than 10% may contract with various entities.
A member of the Planning Commission has asked whether a company in which he has an ownership interest may contract with certain entities, including, but not limited to, the Bexar Metropolitan 911 District. The following facts are presented:
A member of the Planning Commission owns a 10% interest in a construction company amounting to more than $10,000. The company is seeking a contract with the Bexar Metropolitan 911 District ("the District") for services related to its 911 Call Center. The contract is to be awarded by competitive bid. Moreover, the company is interested in seeking contracts for construction services with the VIA Metropolitan Transit ("VIA"), and the Alameda Theater/Smithsonian at the Farmer's Market. Each of these prospective contracts is to be awarded by competitive bid. At no time will the member appear before the Board of Appeals or the Planning Commission with respect to any of these three (3) contracts.
issue is whether the company in which the member has an ownership interest may
contract with the District, VIA, and/or the Alameda Theater/Smithsonian. Under
Chapter 171 of the Texas Local Government Code and the Ethics Code of the City
Section 171.003 of the Local Government Code prohibits an official from knowingly participating in a matter if action on the matter will have a special economic effect on the business entity in which the official has a substantial interest. An official has a substantial interest in a business entity if, in the previous year, he receives more than 10% or more of his gross income from the entity. Moreover, the action must have a special economic effect on the business entity.
that end, the Attorney General has stated that the language of Section
171.004(a)(1), requiring an official to file an affidavit where conflict
exists, "is broadly written and does not
require that the business entity have a direct interest in the matter. It only requires that the action on the
matter have a special economic effect on the business entity."
The City's Ethics Code reiterates this standard of conduct, stating that a City official may not take official action that he knows is likely to have an effect on, among others, his economic interest or the economic interest of a business entity in which he holds an economic interest. An economic interest "includes, but is not limited to, legal or equitable property interests in land, chattels, and intangibles, and contractual rights having more than de minimis value" and must be one that is distinguishable from the effect on the public in general. Should such occur, the City official is required to recuse himself immediately, refraining from any further participation in the matter, and disclose in writing to the City Clerk the economic interest.
In the instant case, it is unlikely that the individual would be required to take action as a member of the Commission on a matter involving either his company and/or one of these three agencies. However, should the situation arise, the member must recuse and disclose the matter to the City Clerk, in writing, thereby avoiding any question of conflict.
Prohibited Financial Interest in Contract. Part B, Section 10[1] prohibits City officers from having a financial interest in a contract with the City or its agencies. Under this section, a City officer includes, among others, "members of any board or commission which is more than advisory in function." A board or commission is more than advisory in function where the decisions of said commission are appealable to the City Council. All other commissions are advisory as the decisions they render have no binding force other than to provide the information supporting the commission's recommendation(s). Because the Planning Commission is empowered to "prepare, recommend and administer rules and regulations pertaining to subdivisions and to platting in territory outside the City limits [ ]" under the City Charter, decisions for which are appealable to the City Council, it is more than advisory in nature, and its members are City officers for the purposes of this section.
To be in violation of this section, the City officer must have a financial interest in a contract with the City. A financial interest, includes, but is not limited to, being a party to a City contract. In the instant case, should the member's construction company result in the lowest bidder, the contract would be between the company and the participating entity, the District, VIA, and/or the Alameda/Smithsonian, none of which are City agencies.
A City agency is one
created through passage of an ordinance by the City of
The third entity, the Alameda/Smithsonian, is a non-profit corporation. The City does, however, anticipate executing a contract with this corporation for services related to the construction of the Smithsonian at the Farmers Market. Given these facts, a member of the Commission would be in violation of the Ethics Code if the company in which he has the requisite financial interest is paid for its services resulting from any contract between the City and the Alameda/Smithsonian.
A Planning Commission
member must abide by the standards as set forth in Chapter 171 of the Local
Government Code and the Ethics Code, including recusal and disclosure should he
be required to take official action on a matter that may confer an economic
benefit distinguishable from the public in general on a business entity in
which he holds an economic interest.
Moreover, the company in which he owns an interest amounting to 10% or
more of the company may not contract with an entity receiving funds pursuant to
a City contract if such services result from the City contract. The company may, however, contract with other
governmental entities that are
Under the present fact scenario, a company in which a member of the Planning Commission owns more than 10% interest may contract with Bexar Metropolitan 911 District and the VIA Metropolitan Transit. The company may not, however, contract with the Alameda/Smithsonian.

Arrogate joined the all-time greats of American racing and was likened to Secretariat by his trainer when, covered in sand and glory, he ran out a two and a quarter length winner of the US $10m Dubai World Cup at Meydan.
After consistently winning races and his astounding display to win the Dubai World Cup at Meydan on Saturday, Arrogate is to have a well-deserved break before being prepared to defend his Breeders' Cup Classic crown.
The Bob Baffert-trained grey produced a sensational performance after facing a near impossible task.
The four-year-old, carrying the famous Khalid Abdullah colours also sported by Frankel, was last after being squeezed out at the start and one stage was some 20 lengths behind the leader.
Jockey Mike Smith did not panic and, going down the back straight, worked his way into the race before the turbo kicked in as Arrogate stormed past the leader Gun Runner over a furlong out to land an unlikely victory by two and a quarter lengths.
"It was an extraordinary performance. It was one for the ages, as they say," said Teddy Grimthorpe, racing manager to the owner.
"So far, he's come out of the race fine.
"He'll have a break now and aim for the Breeders' Cup. That will be his main objective.
"Obviously we have to get him back home, see how he is and give him some time to chill and then bring him back with the Breeders' Cup in mind."

Pop smarts
A lot of people in the classical world cling blindly to the prejudice that classical music is somehow smarter than pop music.
Here are two reviews that should do a lot to lay this foolish prejudice to rest.
One: the blog Proper Discord gives a thoughtful review of Renée Fleming's new indie-rock album Dark Hope. A lot of coverage of this album seems to dwell on the idea that it's crossover and how DARE she. This writer, instead, takes it on its own terms, with a depth of pop-music knowledge I couldn't hope to muster, and dismantles it very effectively.
Here is his concise explanation of the difference between a classical album and a pop one:
In classical music, it's the composer's job to write the notes, the musician's job to make a good sound, the engineer's job to capture it and the producer's job to let you know when everything is in the can.
In pop music, they all work together to create a sound. The notes themselves are simple, so the sound needs to be great. That hasn't happened here, or, at least, it hasn't been done well enough to make it work.
Two: Ann Powers, the pop music critic of the Los Angeles Times, is reviewing the Achim Freyer Ring. First up: Rheingold. Not only is this a smart and informed review, but it addresses some of the issues surrounding the perennial question of whether, and how, classical music can reach a new, and implicitly pop-loving, audience.

Who can resist a rainbow? Put anything in color order, even your embroidery stitches, and instantly you've got something beautiful and eye-catching.
Use these colorful stitching projects to inspire your own embroidery. Some include patterns or instructions, while others will simply have you reaching for every hue, shade, and tint of embroidery floss you own!

Embroidered Rainbow Pincushion
Rainbows are everywhere, and so are little strips of washi tape! This adorable pincushion combines those two things and creates a sampler of sorts too! The pattern and project instructions are available from Clover & Violet. You can also purchase everything you need as a kit!
02 of 10
Rainbow Stitched Sampler
For those who are looking to learn some new stitches or practice old ones, a sampler is always perfect. And this one from Dropcloth comes as a pre-stamped piece ready to stitch. Kitty of Night Quilter embroidered the version you see here and is making a mini color wheel quilt with the finished stitching. She also shares a beautiful color palette of Aurifil floss.
03 of 10
Sashiko in Rainbow Stitches
Traditional sashiko is blue and white, but that doesn't mean you can't put these Japanese stitches in color order. Rebecca from Hugs are Fun shows how she used a classic sashiko pattern and put a modern spin on it...simply by using color! I especially like how the design creates a blended rainbow look, even though all of the threads are solid colors.

Cross Stitch Rainbow Blocks
If you are looking to do a bit of cross stitch, Tonya at The Crafty Mummy has a collection of free rainbow block charts for you. I love the classic rainbow colors she used and how they look like a little quilt when they are put together. Be sure to scroll down through the post to find all nine of the charts, and don't miss her rainbow-stitched doily too!Continue to 5 of 10 below.

As wonderful of a Christmas gift as it was, Lunar Magic 3.00 introduced powerful new features (bigger levels and multiple exits for just a start) that have resulted in a whole bunch of incompatibilities with various resources across the site. These mainly affect the tools (GIEPY for example is currently incompatible), and a possibly huge number of patches. This update came as such a surprise that we were unable to prepare for it and make any necessary changes—to help alleviate this problem we've opened up a thread where users (like you!) can report any incompatibilities you guys may come across while using Lunar Magic 3.00. For clarification: this is not for bugs with Lunar Magic 3.00 itself, which should be reported in its' own thread instead, but rather any external resources on the site.

People are getting more and more mobile nowadays. It is not surprising since distance now has a different face and traveling from one place to another has become a lot convenient for people. However people's movement does not necessitate everyone to have his/her own means of transportation. It is true that having your own vehicle makes you feel more comfortable in traveling. Maybe, but for some reasons some people opt not to have their cars despite it appearing to be a need nowadays.
Not owning a car does not imply that one does not drive. Well to get a driver's license you do not have to have your own vehicle as a prerequisite. This is the reason why we have several car-for-rent services especially in the city. People who rely on rental cars or borrowing a friend's car is saving several dollars for not getting his/her own ride however this does not free one from getting car insurance coverage.
Technically speaking no one is exempted so long as you drive you have to get a protection from a provider. Non owner auto insurance is the kind of policy one must avail if he/she is driving someone else's car. It is specifically designed for people who do not own a car but is frequently or even occasionally traveling.
Non owner auto insurance is a Liability only policy. Liability insurance can only cover the damages or bodily injuries of the other party in case of an accident. Therefore non owner car insurance will not take care of the damages of the vehicle you are driving since it has no collision coverage.
Not all car insurance company offers this non owner car insurance and in most cases those who cater such service provide them on a limited basis. Some insurance providers offer non owner car insurance for people in urban cities. Living in highly populated and busy places can be seen as non-ideal place to have your own ride. The amount that it will cost you from the car purchase alone, the insurance policy, to parking fees to car maintenance would not be worth the effort of getting a new ride especially if you have a choice not to own one. They can just rent a car if they needed nit badly. With this the only coverage they need is the liability policy of non owner car insurance. Some insurance company offers this policy exclusively for those who need proof of insurance to be able to get another driver's license and no longer owns a car.
Although in most cases non owner car insurance is offered in a limited option it is still best to check on different insurance companies who are providing such policy and do the usual comparison shopping.

Do Educators Have a Boss?
I'm confused.
Who do we see as our boss?
The department head?
The principal?
The superintendent?
The school board?
The community?
Some may say students, but we don't really answer to them.
If we did, we would give them what they want and not what we think they need.
So who is our actual boss?

Appearing at a SXSW panel over the weekend, "Black Panther" co-writer Joe Robert Cole spoke about the Marvel Cinematic Universe and how, if "Iron Man" was released today, it probably wouldn't work as it did back then due to the change of politics and cultural attitudes.
Tony Stark is, after all, an alcoholic womanizing, billionaire arms manufacturer – the kind of guy who is the last person one would root for. The casting of Robert Downey Jr. in the role managed to smooth over some of the initial douchieness of the character until he goes through his redemptive story arc which imbues him with a level of humility. Speaking at the panel (via Indie Wire), Cole says:
"Think about where we are now, with this very vapid, unintelligent president and our world is crackling on the edges because of that. Think back to Tony Stark, him being douchey and being okay. If that character, Stark, was created in a movie today, I wonder if the response would be like, 'Oh, it's cool that he's douchey and disrespectful to women … That's fine.' I think we're at a different place. I think it's a better place."
The comments come as Quartz reports that "Black Panther" opened in China this past weekend and reviews of it on the Chinese equivalent of the IMDb suggested there's still plenty of progress to be made in other countries with comments having issues not just with the cast's skin color but the film's overall lack of bright colors: "Black Panther is black, all the major characters are black, a lot of scenes are black, the car-chasing scene is black – the blackness has really made me drowsy."
"Black Panther" is now soaring past the $1 billion mark at the box-office and still climbing.

Our Mission
SMP Health System, inspired by the Sisters of Mary of the Presentation, provides leadership to its Catholic health care ministries as they work to fulfill the healing mission of Jesus.
Our Vision
We are a Catholic health system, which, in its diversity of programs and facilities, consists of individuals who care and believe they can make a difference.
Our concern is for all people, but the poor and elderly have a special claim on us. From our limited resources we provide services characterized by excellence, compassion, and personalized concern. Because we care, we focus on the needs of the whole person which includes their physical, spiritual, psychological, and social well-being.
We live in a world of change and challenges, and we know this will continue into the future. We are people of hope and commitment. The rich diversity of people, professions, skills, talents, and gifts enables us to continue the healing ministry of Jesus.
We Believe: Our Catholic health care services and programs are ecclesial in nature, mandated by the Church to carry on the healing ministry of Jesus.
We Believe: Life is a gift from God. Each person's life is of utmost value, regardless of the quality of life, and deserves respect and care at all stages from conception until natural death.
We Believe: In order to heal as Jesus did, we are called to care for and to be concerned about the whole patient in their physical, spiritual, mental, and social needs within the scope of our capabilities.
We Believe: In ownership and management, we have an opportunity and responsibility to provide quality patient care in an environment that contributes to the healing of the whole person.
We Believe: We have a responsibility to create a "God-charged" atmosphere, which will foster both a deep respect for the uniqueness of each person and of their contribution to the organization. This will permeate the entire environment and be reflected in a spirit of Christian community and in quality patient care.
We Believe: We have an opportunity and a responsibility to provide pastoral care for all persons associated with our health care services and programs.
We Believe: Those involved in our Catholic health care programs and services should be vitally interested in the well-being of those communities and should occupy influential positions in the business, civic, or religious spheres.
We Believe: The values and principles inherent in the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Facilities as promulgated by the United States Catholic Conference and the local bishops, and in our responsibility to maintain policies and procedures in accord with those Directives.
We Believe: Our Catholic health care services and programs should advance the cause of social justice internally through respect for the personal dignity and worth of each employee, as well as through appropriate material compensation, and externally through the use of their position and power for the common good of society and its individual members.
We Believe: We have an opportunity and obligation to provide educational programs, consistent with and supportive of this philosophy, and that we have the right to require of each person in our services and programs accountability for excellence and adherence to professional and institutional standards.
