Happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a wonderful holiday and are ready for the New Year! As promised I have the rest of my December Memories album to share with you today :)
I finished this baby up a couple of days after Christmas and I'm thrilled with the end result! After I finally got over the fact that I wasn't documenting our month chronologically, it came together rather quickly. You can see the first part of this album here.
I added an extra page showcasing our Elf on the Shelf, Erwin. He was so fun to photograph and I wanted to include all of the places he had been in our house on one page. I used a PS template that was included in the December Memories Class at GB for this.
And here's the other side of the insert...
I took a photograph of our Christmas tree's reflection in the window, printed it out at 6x8, and layered some letter stickers and embellishments right on top of it.
I included extra photos and ephemera from the holiday season in the chevron kraft bag that I included in my album...
I didn't take a ton of photos on Christmas day, but I captured enough of it for my album and I'm ok with that :) I tucked a journaling tag inside of the small baggie of our day and how we spent it.
I didn't get a shot of the whole family either, so I included a photo of my three kiddos and my niece to fill the spot in the back of my album. I also slipped all of my Christmas cards in the very back so they're all in one place.
So there you have it...a whole month of December Memories for 2013! I really enjoy doing this each year and it makes December seem that much more special to me. Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a great Monday!

Viessmann installers from England and Germany will face each other in a friendly football match at Huddersfield Town on 21 April.
The Viessmann-trained installers will play an 11-a-side 'Vriendly' game at the club's PPG Canalside training ground and stay to watch Huddersfield Town's Sky Bet Championship match against Fulham at the John Smith's Stadium, on 22 April.
Viessmann area business manager James Carter said: "Viessmann has supported Huddersfield Town for the past two seasons as sponsor of its team sheets. As a German brand, the fact that Huddersfield is the most German club outside Germany – with five players, a manager and an assistant manager from Germany – was not lost on Viessmann! There are not many sporting rivalries quite like England versus Germany and we expect a match full of emotion."

Jarosław Morawski
I am an all-around designer who is passionate about putting together things that work. I graduated from University of Wrocław in 2016, but started working in the industry long before that. Among others, I was a part of one of Poland's biggest technology blogs, an online luxury design magazine, and a multilingual software house that worked with different clients from all around the globe.
Currently I am designing things at Holy Sheep, a brilliant branding studio from Wrocław, Poland. Together we build unique and market-ready brands that stand out from the crowd.
My job is mostly thinking. I start with research to identify and understand the right problems both from design and business perspective. Then I investigate possible solutions and turn them into processes, workflows, and working prototypes. If necessary, I add a bit of visual flair.
I strip the excessive to focus on the important: ease of use, understanding, and usefulness. I like things "normal". For some that means boring but to me it's the state when things work so well that they become transparent. I believe that research, communication, and simplicity are what make a timeless and truly useful design.
Elsewhere, I enjoy playing role-playing video games, watching TV shows & movies, reading various books, and listening to classical music (especially film scores). I try to live a simple life with my girlfriend, many potted plants, and a downy cat named Luna.

- Plesk Onyx for Linux
- Plesk Onyx for Windows
- Plesk 12.5 for Windows
How to sync files, emails and database content between a source and a destination servers after migration to avoid data discrepancy?
The synchronization helps to update already migrated data with a new data from a source server when DNS is not yet switched.
Starting from Plesk Migrator version 2.0, data synchronization for migrated subscriptions can be done from Plesk interface:
- One by one from Re-sync button at Overview tab
- Multiple subscriptions via Subscription List tab.
When re-sync is done, it will bring in only files and emails that have been created or updated on a source server after the migration is finished. Databases are re-migrated completely.
Also, it is possible to synchronize content via command-line:
Synchronizing all content via CLI
To sync content of all domains use the following commands:
# cd /usr/local/psa/var/modules/panel-migrator/sessions/<session_dir_name>/
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/modules/panel-migrator/plesk-migrator copy-content
C:\> cd %plesk_dir%\var\modules\panel-migrator\sessions\<session_dir_name>
"%plesk_dir%admin/plib/modules/panel-migrator/backend/plesk-migrator.bat" generate-migration-list
"%plesk_dir%\admin\plib\modules\panel-migrator\backend\plesk-migrator.bat" copy-content
If initial migration was done via Plesk interface, it is required to modify
file in order to synchronize content via CLI. Add the following line in both
[plesk] for target and
[source] for source server directives in
%plesk_dir%\var\modules\panel-migrator\conf\config.ini file:
CONFIG_TEXT: windows-password-type = "plain"
As a result,
config.ini will look alike:
target-type = "plesk"
session-dir = "<session_dir_name>"
skip-log-priority-check = "1"
skip-migrator-updates = "1"
skip-set-session-directory-permissions = "1"
use-separate-log = "1"
source-type = "plesk"
sources = "source"
skip-rpc-agent-deployment = "false"
adjust-applications = "true"
ip = "10.10.10.10"
os = "windows"
windows-username = "Administrator"
windows-password = "*******"
windows-password-type = "plain"
ip = "22.214.171.124"
os = "windows"
windows-username = "Administrator"
windows-password = "*******"
windows-password-type = "plain"
session-dir = "C:\panel_migrator"
copy-mail-content = "full"
copy-web-content = "full"
copy-db-content = "full"
data-import-type = "selected"
timing-policy = "false"
resync-content = "true"
operability-check = "true"
Otherwise, the following error will appear:
CONFIG_TEXT: "%plesk_dir%/admin/plib/modules/panel-migrator/backend/plesk-migrator.bat" copy-content
[INFO] Initialize Plesk Migrator
[INFO] Load configuration
[ERROR] The encrypted password is specified in the configuration option 'windows-password' of section 'plesk'. Migration with encrypted passwords is not supported by CLI interface. Replace the encrypted password by plain one (also change the password type to "plain") or set up the plain password in the environment variable 'PLESK_WINDOWS_PASSWORD'.
Synchronizing content separately
Also, content can be synchronized separately. There are three types of content:
- Mail content
- Database content
- Web content
During Mail content synchronization, all mail content is copied from a source server. New mail on a destination server will not be overwritten.
During Database content synchronization, content of a user's database (MySQL/MS SQL) on a destination server is replaced by content from a source server.
During Web content synchronization, files on a destination server are replaced by files from a source server.
For a specific type of content use the following options
Note: such commands synchronize already migrated objects' content. If during or after a migration, a new database or a mail account is created, it will not be synchronized. Instead, use the command below:
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/modules/panel-migrator/plesk-migrator transfer-accounts --reload-source-data
To sync content of certain domains only, use the following instruction:
Prepare a migration list containing domains that should be synchronized.
The list format should be as follows:
CONFIG_TEXT: Customer: customer
Plesk Migrator should be pointed to that migration list directly when executed. For example, to sync web content:
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/modules/panel-migrator/plesk-migrator copy-web-content --migration-list-file <path-to-the-migration-list>
C:\> "%plesk_dir%admin/plib/modules/panel-migrator/backend/plesk-migrator.bat" copy-web-content --migration-list-file <path-to-the-migration-list>
Additional information
For information about starting the migration from CLI, refer to Plesk Migration Guide .

The Hilton Head Plantation Craft Group donated $10,000 to Hospice Care of the Lowcountry, which brings its total donation for the past 17 years to more than $171,000.
Eileen Frey, treasurer of Hilton Head Plantation Craft Group, presented a check to Jenny Brassington, Executive Director of Hospice Care of the Lowcountry and other staff members.
The Hilton Head Plantation Craft Group was formed more than 30 years ago. Initially, they were one of the craft groups that participated in an annual sale for the benefit of the Hilton Head Hospital. When the hospitable became a "for-profit" company, the group subsequently donated its profits to a few different non-profit charities until 1996 when they voted to support Hospice Care of the Lowcountry and we have been supporting them ever since.

12A cert, 104 min
Dir: Frank Coraci; starring: Kevin James, Salma Hayek, Henry Winkler, Bas Rutten
Every now and again a film comes along that could play as a parody of itself with minimal alteration, and 90 per cent of them seem to have some kind of connection to Adam Sandler. It is Sandler's production company Happy Madison that has brought us Here Comes The Boom, a comedy about a teacher who becomes a prizefighting mixed martial artist in order to raise $48,000 to keep his school's music department afloat.
Kevin James plays the noble Mr Voss, whose life improves immeasurably after he starts climbing into caged death matches against a range of bloodthirsty hulks. (The film is officially endorsed by the Ultimate Fighting Championship mixed martial arts franchise.) He inspires his pupils, helps his friends, and even wins the heart of the school nurse, who is played by Salma Hayek.
It gets worse, but never quite sinks to the radioactive lows of James's last comedy, Zookeeper. "You're a hero, Mr Voss," gurgles one of his pupils, after a video of a fight leaks onto YouTube. "Hero, eh?" replies Mr Voss, with a faraway look: a moment of pure cinematic suet. The film ends with a triumphant shout of "Viva America!" over a clear blue sky. Truly, violence solves everything.

Songs and Tales From Homespun America
Using stories and songs accompanied on the guitar, banjo and mountain dulcimer, Susan weaves music, folk tales and a demonstration of authentic toys and crafts from long ago to introduce listeners to life in earlier times and our American folk heritage.
Songs and Tales From Our World Neighbors
(Respecting our differences and getting along)
Folk tales from several countries illustrate how people respect, work together and learn from one another. Participatory songs stress the similarities, which bind us into a world community. An exhibit of international toys demonstrates how children all over the world use their creativity, and materials from their cultures and environments to fashion their own entertainment.
Songs and Tales to Welcome the Spring
Ecology, nature, and friendship are the basic themes for stories and songs accompanied by the guitar banjo and mountain dulcimer. A demonstration of old-time toys made from natural materials from the Earth rounds out this refreshing celebration of spring!
Home for the Holidays
The wonder and timeless traditions of Christmas and Hanukkah are celebrated through the intimate sharing of holiday stories, and songs accompanied on the guitar, banjo and dulcimer. An exhibit of old-time toys and teasers completes an old-fashioned journey through this joyous season.
Following an introductory assembly, each class will meet daily with Ms. Trump to write a song. Topics are chosen by the teachers prior to the residency. Song topics have included social studies, social skills, or science themes such as: The Erie Canal, The Hudson River, Sharks, Ancient Egypt, Colonial America, The Underground Railroad, Revolutionary War, Paul Bunyan, Grandparent Ballads, Cooperation. Students present their creations at a closing assembly for parents and other students. Each class receives a written copy and recording of the songs. Song samples are available upon request.
A Sample Songwriting Residency for Grades Three through Six
Day 1- Assembly/Toy Making Workshop
(45 minutes)(30 minutes)
The introductory assembly program includes folk tales, an exhibit of old-fashioned toys, and participatory songs accompanied on the guitar, banjo, and mountain dulcimer. A classroom workshop in toy making follows. Children construct a ball-in-the-cup game using materials they have available, just as children of past years used what they had on hand to construct their toys.
Days 2, 3 and 4 - Songwriting Days (45-60 minutes)
Information the children have learned in class provides the ideas for verses for our song. Using familiar folk tunes or original melodies, I teach a chorus which I have written in advance. As a class, we brainstorm different ways to make our ideas fit the rhythm and rhyme scheme of the music to create the verses. Each class writes its own song.
Day 5- Rehearsal/Recording and Concert Day
(30 minutes in the classroom, 45 minutes concert presentation) The final day is spent rehearsing the songs the children will sing, and recording each class song. Parents are invited and encouraged to attend the concert where the children present their songs.

Ring traveler:
Ring traveler is the most tinny and simple mechanical element in ring frame. It has a direct effect on the quality of yarn produced as their action physically turns the raw material into finished product. So, ring traveller plays very important role in ring spinning system.
|Fig: Ring traveler
- Imparts twist to the yarn and
- It is responsible for winding the yarn onto the cop.
- It defines Spinning tension.
- It defines Winding Tension.
- Traveller imparts twist to the yarn.
- Traveller and spindle together help to wind the yarn on the bobbin. Length wound up on the bobbin corresponds to the difference in peripheral speeds of the spindle and traveller. The difference in speed should correspond to length delivered at the front rollers. Since traveller does not have a drive on its own but is dragged along behind by the spindle.
Toe gap: This will vary according to traveller number and flange width of the ring.
|Toe gap
|Height of bow
|Ring contact area
|Inner width
|Wire section
|Yarn passage
- Generate Less Heat .
- Dissipate Heat Fast.
- Have Sufficient Elasticity For Easy Insertion And To Retain Its Original Shape After Insertion.
- Friction Between Ring And Traveller Should Be Minimal.
- It Should Have Excellent Wear Resistance For Longer Life.
- Hardness Of The Traveller Should Be Less Than The Ring .
The speed by which the traveller moves around the ring = Π DR NT m/min
Traveller Count:
- Since traveller does not have a drive on its own but is dragged along behind by the spindle. High contact pressure (up to 35 N/ mm2)is generated between the ring and the traveller during winding, mainly due to centrifugal force.
- This pressure leads to generation of heat. Heat produced when by the ring traveller is around 300 degree celcius. This has to be dissipated in milliseconds by traveller into the air.
- Low mass of the traveller does not permit dissipation of the generated heat in the short time available. As a result the operating speed of the traveller is limited.
- The maximum attainable speed of traveller without getting damaged is known as "Limiting Speed of Traveller".
- 70 ft/sec. (22 m/sec) – Conventional Ring- traveller.
- 120 ft/sec. (35 m/sec) – H.S. Ring- traveller.
- When the spindle speed is increased, the friction work between ring and traveller increases as the 3rd power of the spindle rpm. Consequently if the spindle speed is too high, the traveller sustains thermal damage and fails. This speed restriction is felt particularly when spinning cotton yarns of relatively high strength.
- If the traveller speed is raised beyond normal levels , the thermal stress limit of the traveller is exceeded, a drastic change in the wear behaviour of the ring and traveller ensues. Owing to the strongly increased adhesion forces between ring and traveller, welding takes place between the two. These seizures inflict massive damage not only to the traveller but to the ring as well. The traveller temperature reaches 400oC to 500oC and the danger of the traveller annealing and failing is very great.
Traveller Count:
- It represents weight of ten equal type of travellers in grains.
- OLD System: 10 travellers weigh 10 grains then traveller count = 1
- ISO System: Weight of traveller in mgm OR Weight of similar 1000 travellers in gm.
- 10 travellers weigh <10 grains then traveller is said to be the "Ought traveller" or "Nought traveller". Denoted by N/0; where N represents traveller count.
- Higher the count heavier the traveller

Userscript for Removing IMDB Sidebar
I wrote a very quick userscript to remove the sidebar from IMDB pages.
To install it, you'll need to open the downloaded file in your file explorer, open the extensions page in Chrome (Wrench -> Tools -> Extensions), and click and drag the file from the explorer onto the page.
If you're using Firefox, you'll need to install the GreaseMonkey addon. After that, you can just open / download the script in the browser, and it will know what to do with it.
As for other browsers, mobile IMDB is a different animal, so this is inapplicable there. Safari and Opera may have userscript support, but I haven't looked into it much. Internet Explorer users, I'm sorry for all the confusing words, you've somehow stumbled onto the wrong page.
What's a userscript?
A javascript file that runs on specified webpages. For a while now, Chrome has supported these scripts, though they were originally born in the GreaseMonkey plugin for FireFox.
Why write this?
The things on the sidebar were bothering me. Everything on the right side of the page was 100% inanity, and the lists were a constant reminder that someone, somewhere, had nothing better to do than read a list someone else wrote, whose title was as long as this stupid run-on sentence, and contained the acronym "IMHO". I've taken to using the developer tools to delete elements on a page that adblock isn't trained for, which makes it feel a lot like a game. But the fun was gone after about the third time.
How do I go about doing that?

The U.S. government provides for the care and disposition of the remains of members of the armed forces, active and reserve, who die while in an active duty status. Military authorities will in most instances assist with the arrangements for these services within amounts allowed by the government, or the next of kin may make their own arrangements, if desired, and claim reimbursement in the amounts allowed.
Preparation of the remains and casketing (primary expenses), clothing if not available in the personal effects of the deceased, a military escort to accompany the remains to the place of funeral and final disposition, a U.S. flag to accompany the remains to place of final disposition, and transportation of the remains to the place designated by the next of kin are provided.
The benefits for all of the above listed armed forces are the same. Military authorities will arrange for preparation and shipment of the remains if desired. A funeral with a U.S. government contract most likely will be engaged. If there is no government contract in effect and the next of kin chooses to make their own arrangements, reimbursement for preparation and casketing (primary expenses) will be at a maximum of $1,750. If a government contract is in effect and the next of kin chooses to make their own arrangements, reimbursement for preparation and casketing will be the contract price, or actual cost, whichever is less. Military authorities will make arrangements and pay for the transportation of the remains if the next of kin makes such arrangements, the reimbursement cannot exceed what it would have cost the government to forward the remains.
The government also allows for interment expenses. If the remains of the service member are to be interred in a private cemetery, reimbursement is limited to $3,100. Where there is direct forwarding of the remains to a national cemetery, the maximum reimbursement is $110. If the remains are consigned to a funeral home which will be responsible for delivery to a national cemetery, the maximum reimbursement is $2,000.
Where death has occurred and the remains have not been recovered, the reimbursement up to $2,000 will be made for a memorial service.
Members of the Reserves of each of the armed forces and members of the National Guard who die while on active duty, while performing inactive duty training or performing authorized travel to and from such training, are authorized the same primary/interment allowances as active duty personnel. They are also authorized these allowances if they die while hospitalized or undergoing treatment for an injury, illness or disease incurred or aggravated while on active duty or performing inactive duty training.
Military members entitled to retired or retainer pay or equivalent pay and their dependents who die while properly admitted to a military facility in the United States are entitled to transportation of their remains at government expense from the place of death to a place of burial that is no farther distance than the decedent's last place of permanent residence. Transportation is authorized to a place in the United States, including territories or possessions of the United States. The amount paid for transportation may not exceed the cost of transportation from the place of death to the decedent's last place of permanent residence in the United States or territories or possessions of the United States.
Requests for reimbursement should be made on DD Form 1375 and mailed to one of the following addresses:
(Those interested in a "mortuary contract" to serve any camp, post, station or base should contact the Mortuary Officer of such facility.

Are you using Excel spreadsheets? And are these used for GxP activities? Are these Excel sheets used again and again, as a template? Ever thought about validating such templates? Is the person who built your spreadsheet a genius with Excel, but doesn't know how to validate? Want to use spreadsheet templates but validation issues are holding you back?
And what does an umbrella have to do with it?
It is fairly common that a spreadsheet template is created to do calculations which otherwise should be done by hand or calculator. Spreadsheet examples for GxP related matters range from a simple template for calculations of impurity in a sample to a highly complex spreadsheet for statistical analysis of clinical studies including Visual Basic for Application macros. Such spreadsheets may contain critical data, such as laboratory information, and may be used for making critical decisions.
Many companies think a spreadsheet template is just a calculator and don't realize that you should actually think of it as an application. In fact, records generated by the calculations are electronic records and must therefore comply with EU's Annex 11 and FDA's 21 CFR Part 11.
Did you know that by creating a spreadsheet template you are now considered to be a software developer? Your in-house developed software might even be a GAMP software category 5 application. The GAMP software category defines the extend of activities required to validate your spreadsheet.
But enough to scare you off, no need to be afraid. A good road map and some tips and tricks can help you on your way through the rough landscape of spreadsheet validation. Here we go!
So, please don't be afraid of spreadsheet validation anymore. It is actually very much doable.
However, we do have to make a remark: an Excel spreadsheet template is built upon the spreadsheet application Microsoft Excel. Which is principally not designed for regulated environments. So if the spreadsheet software changes, the spreadsheet template might be subject to validation again and should therefore be accessed with each update. For example, Office 365 is a platform that is continuously improving and expanding and implements updates each month. Knowing this, also consider using dedicated software, such as laboratory data systems, for your calculations.
What did the umbrella have to do with it? Here's your answer!

Easy Recipe for Hash Browns
How Would You Rate This Recipe?
My husband makes the best hash browns. The entire family raves about them, and it is always a treat for our adult children to be home for Sunday breakfast. His recipe is foolproof and always a hit. If you like hash browns that are crispy and golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside, you will love these! Give this no-nonsense recipe a try to see just how good made from scratch hash browns can be!
Cook Time
- 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 3 potatoes, medium
Instructions for Easy Hash Browns
- Peel potatoes.
- Heat oil in skillet.
- Grate potatoes into large shreds with a grater.
- Sprinkle salt and black pepper into hot oil on bottom of skillet.
- Test the oil to make sure it is hot by placing one shred of potato in the skillet. If the oil is hot enough the potato will sizzle.
- Carefully place shredded potatoes evenly into skillet. Begin in a large outer circle around the skillet and gradually work toward the center. Repeat the layered circles until all potatoes are in the skillet.
- Reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook for 8 minutes.
- Carefully uncover potatoes. With your spatula, divide the hash browns in half by cutting them down the center from one end of the pan to the other. Turn the pan and cut the hash browns in half again with your spatula. You now have 4 sections of potatoes and are ready to flip your hash browns.
- Flip each section of hash browns. Each section will now have a beautiful golden brown color on top.
- Continue to cook uncovered for 6 more minutes on medium heat.
- Remove from heat and serve.

Yummy recipe, Teresa. It looks so delicious and easy to do. Voted up!
I tried making frozen hash browns recently and it was a mushy disaster. All I had was olive oil and the instructions did not say to cover the pan. I am going to try making them this way with real potatoes. Thanks for the simple directions and pictures.
I have never made hash browns. These are such step by step directions that I think I will give them a try.
Thanks for sharing.
Angels are on the way to you ps
This looks wonderful for breakfast.
This sounds so easy. Why didn't I think of this? Your photos are great. My hash browns never turn out as good looking. Perhaps because I fuss with them too much. I just ate lunch, but now I'm hungry for hash browns. Will definitely give this a try.
Good recipe. Your pics are great.
I've tried to make a similar recipe a few times and it hasn't turned out well. The potatoes get too mushy. Perhaps the secret is in how the potatoes are added to the pan. I'll give it a shot! Thanks.
This looks delicious and not too complicated. Love the images you have provided. Thank you for sharing. (Voted Up) -Rose
Nice and Easy recipe and looks delicious.. I am gonna try this out and for sure my family is in store for a tasty treat :) Voted Up and Sharing

{Palette Love} Red, Black & White
1. newlyweds in love 2. cupcake stand 3. ruby red heels 4. cupcakes 5. calligraphy
This simple and classic palette will always be one of my favorites!
While red is not one of my favorite colors ~ it doesn't mean I can't appreciate a pretty palette! And it's funny that you like it in a rustic setting...as that is exactly where I picture it too ;-))) And yes if this is your palette red shoes are a must!
The touches of red really make this palette pop! From classic (just black & white) it ends up so charming!
this is SUCH a classic. love this.
OMG, this is beyond sweet.
LOVE this palette, keep them coming! you're so inspiring to me.
In love with this look. Especially love the idea of using it in a rustic setting. thanks! xoxo, renee
This color scheme in a barn is pure heaven!!! Perfect palette!

I'll never forget my high school ceramic instructor Mr. Calderhead. His laid back teaching style and his hippy outward appearance made it an easy class to have fun in. He gave me my first taste on the potter's wheel. As I look back on it, it was the only class I came in early for and was the last to leave.
I read a book by Herbert Sanders, "Glaze for Special Effects", while I was a junior in high school. His chapter on the subject of Crystalline Glazes, had me thinking for thirty five years. I loved the look of crystalline, but not the time and expense. I knew at sixteen I couldn't spare either.
I continued throwing in college. I wasn't willing to be a struggling artist. My career path took me into entertainment. I became a sound mixer and video engineer for a litany of television shows and commercials for over twenty years. I chased my career and worked hard at it. I lost touch with the potter I once was.
On location in Colorado while shooting a Sonic commercial, a local crewman and friend invited me over his house after work. He said he had a potter's wheel down in his basement. I told him of my potting past. I gave it a spin and got completely hooked. I needed this back in my life.
I started potting at the local art center as much as I could. I was flattered when the Special Events Director accepted my work at an Irvine Fine Art Center's exhibition. In fac,t the poster advertizing the show displayed my work.
I realized I wanted more time exploring my craft. The dream in high school to make crystalline pottery was still inside me. So I built a small studio at my home and have been creating in earnest since 2005.
As a friendly gesture, I gave a set designer friend one of my vases. The next day I showed up at the old Charlie Chaplin stage in Hollywood to shoot a commercial. On the set was my vase, as a featured background element. He asked me to bring in more pots. My work can now be seen in the background of many national spots.
My passion for creating crystalline pottery is to keep with my core artistic values and to make the best work possible. The enthusiastic reactions I get from the people who come across my work and love what they see allows me to happily share my lifelong dream and my vision.

Day Trip to Porterville
As a whole, EcoloBlue's mission is to provide safe and clean drinking water to those who do not have it. That's the bottom line. And what is one of the worst hit areas in California? East Porterville. One of our Sales Representatives, Dexter Fernandez, and myself, Heather Jepsen (Operations Manager), decided to take a road trip down to Porterville yesterday to see and hear first hand what is going on down there. We wanted to donate an EcoloBlue home/office machine to Pastor Hernandez, who runs the Iglesia Emmanuel in Porterville. We also met Nick Janes from CBS13 Sacramento, and cameraman, Mike Lowry at the church. We learned about Pastor Hernandez through a news story on the drought that Nick organized, in which we were also a part. He wanted to do a follow up since we were brought together through his stories. Andrew Lockman, Manager of the Tulare County of Emergency Services, also made an appearance and looked over our machine.
When we arrived at the church, we were warmly greeted by Pastor Hernandez, Nick, and Mike, and spent several hours with the pastor. We brought the machine into the church, showed him how to use it, and let him know the benefit of setting the timer and allowing it to produce water at night when their humidity level is the highest. He also showed us around the property. We were able to see the container filled with water from the county, that he distributes to the residents. They also have 2 shower trailers on site for residents to use. One for handicap, and one that is split between a men's section and a women/children section. This is apparently costing the county $30,000 a month to rent. They were only supposed to have it on site for 6 months, but it has been extended.
The whole time we were there, residents were coming and going to pick up cases of drinking water. We also heard some of their stories such as one trying to share water (plumbing) with their neighbors, but apparently that is illegal to do now. One resident spoke of a quote of a $16,000 to replace the well on his property. He has to move. And the pastor spoke of one gentleman who refused to take a donation of water, because he did not want to take it from someone doing "this" for the fame. By "this", he meant doing these news stories. It was very disappointing to hear that someone was being skeptical, and refusing something his family greatly needs, because they had a false impression of the pastor.
There are so many people who need help, and we should look highly on, and appreciate what people like Pastor Hernandez are donating their time to do.

Homemade Soy Milk is an alternative to cow's milk and we love it because it's cheap and easy to make. Soy is pretty controversial, it has supporters and detractors, in fact, we prefer other plant milks. Our favorite is almond milk because of the flavor and the properties and nutritional benefits almonds have.
Soy milk isn't as simple to make as other plant milks (for example to make almond milk you only have to blend almonds with water) but it's still easy to make and besides, it's cheaper than other milks.
We recommend you to buy organic or at least non-transgenic soybeans. It's more expensive, but it's totally worth it, your health is so important. Take care of your body, you only have one!
To make homemade soy milk, you only need two ingredients: yellow soybeans and water. Easy peasy! You can also add vanilla beans (or homemade vanilla extract), cocoa or carob powder, some sweetener (we love dates!) or your favorite ingredients, it's up to you.
I drink a juice or a smoothie almost every day and I always use a glass straw. I prefer glass instead of plastic because it's cheaper, healthier, more minimalist and it's also better for the planet, all advantages! I bought my glass straws Glass Dharma's website, but you can also buy them at Amazon, here is the link.
You need to try this recipe, homemade soy milk tastes much better than store-bought and it's also cheaper and healthier. You only need two ingredients, a blender, a strainer, a saucepan and a spoon, that's all!

Facebook is no more a chat site where youngsters hang on with friends in their leisure time. It has emerged as a powerful marketing platform and everybody is rushing to have a so called strong presence on it. Do you really feel this way it is going to help you get a relevant identity on facebook?
The answer is simply a big NO, because you need to avoid certain things that will dissolve your presence on such a crowded social platform. Remember you are on facebook for a purpose so behave the same way. Creating a beautiful facebook page is not enough; you need to learn certain basics of how to behave professionally on facebook.
Research certain questions like – When to post? What to post? Which images will do well for your facebook business page design? Are the images relevant to the business, product line, buyers etc.? Should you reply a post, feedback, questions asked by buyers/visitors? What you shall avoid on facebook? All these and many more doubts we are going to discuss today in this blog. Read further.
There is a difference between a facebook business page and a facebook profile. Maintain the difference.
Note that facebook profiles are for general users and facebook business pages are for business houses, sellers, traders, marketers and business community at large. This might seem to be very basic and everybody is aware of it, but there still certain profiles that actually must be a business page. Google it you will find lots of them.
Always monitor post and comments on your facebook business page. Do not avoid them.
You might be wondering why such a silly discussion is on. It's true, the discussions are silly but if these silly looking things are overlooked you will not get another chance to compensate yourself. No matter what is your business product or services, you need to constantly interact with your buyers active on the social media platform.
If you don't respond to the comments and post of your buyers/visitors, your inactiveness says – "I am least bothered about you". To avoid the same follow the facebook link to study how to turn timeline on (https://www.facebook.com/help/168229546579373). Allow users to post and leave comments on your page so that you can review your performance.
It is up to you whether to speak or let your buyers also speak. Make it two way traffic instead of one way. Let your users engage with you more rather than only you speak and others listen.
Keep it simple, monitor all the post and comments on your page and regularly respond towards them. Stay active and engage more.
Don't mess with the Post; help your users with visual discrepancy by providing additional information relevant to the post.
When you post a content on your page don't forget to add some additional information that is related to your post, links, comment etc. This supporting info could be anything like a graphical presentation, infographics, statistical data, quotes, etc. keep in mind that facebook is highly searchable in prominent search engines.
Also work out integrating your post with keywords so that they are visible when searched in the search engines.
Read second half of the blog for more info on what and what not to do with your facebook business pages. You can visit us on www.efusionworld.com for social media, eCommerce & custom website solutions. You can email, call or chat live with our team of experts.

Pastor Is Aghast Over Transgender "Perverts"; Forgets He Himself Exposed Kids to an Actual Child Molester

Refashioning luxury goods through co-creationWolny, Julia; Hansen, Rina (Geneva, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Sustainable fashion in all its guises, has been the preoccupation of many a recent campaign, article, research and initiative. Not only is the industry increasingly aware of the need to cut its environmental impact, but also consumers and consumer organisations are putting pressures on various parts of the supply chain to comply with environmental and ethical practices. Yet, from a management perspective, the economic impact of these demands can lead to conflicting priorities. In particular, the basic marketing concept of product lifecycle indicates the product's gradual diminishing monetary returns through time. In this paper we will be analysing a case of a refashioning of products that are either obsolete or unsalable and making a commercially viable collection. In 2008 MCM collaborated with the London College of Fashion to reuse, recycle and redesign a number of end-of-line, dated handbags into new objects of desire with a new lifecycle. This case will form a basis of analysing the validity of such a product re-development tactic for other luxury brands. The paper will provides a blueprint for future re-fashioning initiatives by reflecting on the value inherent in the process for both users and firms alike. The paper contributes to the understanding of recycling and sustainable fashion from a theoretical perspective that links together the product lifecycle, co-creation and value creation theories. The main theoretical implication of the work concerns the framing of recycling and refashioning with the context of those linked concepts.According to this contribution, refashioning can enable value creation from obsolete products, especially if a co-design with consumers or users forms part of the proposition. On the managerial side, this study recognisees the economic drivers of business and highlights the commercial, not only environmental and societal benefits of recycling within the luxury sector. The recycled products stand in direct opposition to counterfeiting, which is evident in the uniqueness for refashioned products leading to the development of new objects of desire.

Bjørn-Andersen, Niels; Hansen, Rina (Auckland, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This is a longitudinal study of the extent to which luxury fashion brands have struggled with the dilemma of on the one hand interacting with fans and customers online, while on the other hand retain the exclusivity, surprise, and innovation hype of the brand. We have developed a framework for assessing websites and social media sites of luxury fashion brands. We applied the framework in three empirical studies in 2006, 2008 and 2010. Our findings show that the observed luxury brands have increased their adoption of social and interactive digital Internet-based technologies since 2006. We also document some of the most interesting uses of Web 2.0 technologies fashion brands for creating an immersing and innovative environment online. While some brands like Burberry has gone "the full Monty", others like Prada has not had a functioning web-site since 2007, probably disappointed about their first attempts at "getting their feet wet" early on. The findings have theoretical relevance in the shape of the 8C framework, but it should also have relevance for practitioners, as it might function as a checklist for creators and management of fashion brand websites.

Reference Framework and Research AgendaSchubert, Petra; Adisa, Femi (Koblenz, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Cloud Computing is a topic that has gained momentum in the last years. Current studies show that an increasing number of companies is evaluating the promised advantages and considering making use of cloud services. In this paper we investigate the phenomenon of cloud computing and its importance for the operation of ERP systems. We argue that the phenomenon of cloud computing could lead to a decisive change in the way business software is deployed in companies. Our reference framework contains three levels (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and clarifies the meaning of public, private and hybrid clouds. The three levels of cloud computing and their impact on ERP systems operation are discussed. From the literature we identify areas for future research and propose a research agenda.

Understanding Technology Decision MakingGimpel, Gregory (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Recent innovations have integrated information and communication technology (ICT) into the fabric of people's daily lives. Wireless technology, with its constant presence and transcendence of geographical boundaries, has profoundly influenced people's behavior and the consumption of technology and related services. During the past few years, wireless technologies have shifted from simple devices offering mobile phone calling to multipurpose devices that incorporate the capabilities of other devices. The multiple uses of these devices, coupled with the blurring of the work-home and utilitarianhedonic technology, creates the need for a new understanding of technology adoption and use....

Folkeskolernes brug af internettetAndersen, Kim Normann; Medaglia, Rony (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: De danske folkeskolers indsats med anvendelse af internettet til at levere data om karakterer og trivselsmål halter ikke blot bagefter, men er endog meget langt fra målsætninger om åbenhed og gennemsigtighed. Det var ellers et meget klart formuleret krav i Lov om gennemsigtighed og åbenhed i uddannelserne m.v. (vedtaget tilbage i 2002) samt i 360 graders eftersynet af skolerne, der i den netop udkomne rapport bl.a. anbefalede langt stærkere fokus på resultater. En kortlægning af 200 folkeskoler jævnt fordelt på de fem regioner viser, at det stadig i langt overvejende er generel information om skolerne, der dominerer hjemmesiderne, og at folkeskolerne ikke har integreret eksempelvis karaktergennemsnit og andre forbrugerdata på hjemmesiderne. I stedet skal forældre og børn gå via andre informationskanaler for at få data om karakterer for den enkelte skole. Det kan eksempelvis ske via UNI-C eller CEPOS. Ud af de undersøgte 200 folkeskoler er det kun 15% af skolerne, der kommer op på et niveau, hvor de er på omdrejningshøjde med målsætninger om gennemsigtighed og sammenlignelighed via internettet. De øvrige 85% halter så meget bagefter, at undersøgelsen konkluderer, at det er vanskeligt at se loven er internaliseret i den digitale ledelse og kommunikation til brugerne. Der kan være to mulige årsager til dette. Enten er skolerne uvidende om hvordan man lægger informationer op på nettet eller de forsøger bevidst at undgå sammenlignelighed og tilgængelighed. Uanset om det skyldes manglende viden eller modvilje, er resultatet, at danske børn og forældre i praksis er ladt i stikken af skolerne. Der findes flere portaler og online databaser, hvor data for karaktergennemsnit fordelt på fag og klassetrin kan findes. Det er imidlertid kun en lille del af folkeskolerne, der benytter denne mulighed. Mange af de skoler, der linker til data, tager så betydelige forbehold for disse data, at det langt fra stimulerer brugerne til at hente, anvende og vurdere oplysninger om karakterer.

E-konsultationer og policy udfordringerAndersen, Kim Normann; Medaglia, Rony (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Næsten hver anden dansker anvender internettet til, at søge efter sundhedsrelateret information, mens det for EU-15 landene kun er godt hver tredje gennemsnit. Hvor det i 2004 var 27 procent, var det i 2009 46 procent der søgte information på nettet, svarende til en vækst på 70%. Brug af nettet til at søge efter sundhedsrelateret information er ikke et ungdomsfænomen eller en krusning i vandoverfladen. Denne rapport peger på at brugen af internettet herunder brugen af sociale netværksteknologier som Facebook, etc. kan lede til yderligere vækst i e-mail konsultationerne, der i 2009 nåede nye højder......

Next Generation Management of Organizational PerformanceKane, Brian (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Managers must aspire to understand their organization in a way that allows them to take appropriate actions when necessary and to be able to utilize tools which encourage the organization to behave in a desirable way. The field of performance management deals with these objectives and is becoming increasingly pervasive. However, the author's personal experience and substantial scholarship suggest that performance management is linked to dysfunctional behavior in organizations. Various current explanations for the link between measurement and dysfunction revolve around observability or knowledge of the transformation process, but seem simplistic and inadequate. This work examines measurement as one representational form out of many others, for example text. It is proposed that the representational form used in performance management practice is implicated with dysfunctional behavior. This demands an exploration of the relevant facets of organizational reality which influence the relationship with various representational forms. After a theoretical positioning, the relationship is explored empirically through onsite visits at two Microsoft Corporation locations in Copenhagen and Redmond. Thirty stories of performance management, based on interviews with senior managers, are presented. The stories provide the basis for establishing a rich understanding of organizational reality and the implications of using various representational forms in terms of dysfunctional behavior. These implications lead to a fundamental rethinking of the form and boundaries of performance management theory and practice, and emphasize the need for a multi-paradigmatic approach to performance management, which is presented.

Critical Factors in Theory and PracticeHedman, Jonas (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper reports the findings of a research project investigating the utilization and continuous improvement of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. Adopting the aspects of a resource management framework and Critical Success Factor research, an initial framework is developed. The framework is developed through a survey of ERP system expert consultants. A number of factors and causalities are identified, including the positive role of use by top management and the role of corporate culture. Two factors were found to have a negative impact on utilization. The first is the unreflective use of ERP system implementation methods, which can 'kill' the visions and ideas of implementing ERP systems, while the second is the vanilla implementation strategy.

Hedman, Jonas (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Historically, organizations developed their information systems in-house. Today, a large portion of information systems development is based on acquisition of pre-made information systems, so called commercially off the shelf (COTS) systems. This approach of developing information systems requires new skills and methods supporting the process of evaluating and selecting information systems. This paper presents a method for selecting COTS systems. The method includes the following phases: problem framing, requirements and appraisal, and selection of systems. The idea and distinguishing feature behind the method is that improved understanding of organizational' ends' or goals should govern the selection of a COTS system. This can also be expressed as a match or fit between 'ends' (e.g. improved organizational effectiveness) and 'means' (e.g. implementing COTS systems). This way of approaching the selection of COTS systems as viewing COTS systems as a 'mean' to reach organizational 'ends' is different from the mainstream view of information systems development, which view information systems development as a problem solving process, and the underlying ontological view in other COTS selection methods, which focus on selection of functionality not reaching organizational ends.

A Single User-Action Solution to Creating, Tagging, Geo-Coding, Archiving, Sharing, and Streaming of Digital Artifacts, Objects, and ContentVatrapu, Ravi; Joseph, Sam (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The Socio-Spatial History Recorder system provides a one-stop single-user action solution to creating, tagging, geo-coding, archiving, sharing and streaming of digital artifacts. Users of this solution will no longer need to perform intermediary actions to edit, prepare, and publish their digital artifacts to the Internet or their social networks. For example, in the case of digital still images, this system offers a one-click solution to sharing a digital artifact. An user can shoot a picture, geo-code the picture, display the picture in a mapping application, and share it with another user all by one and only one shutter click on the digital still image capturing device. Social sharing rules and rights can be set up in advance or dynamically configured and the digital artifacts can be encrypted if desired or required. Practical uses of this system in the social domain include unobtrusive social sharing of digital artifacts embedded in their rich interactional contexts. Practical uses are also in application domains that require or would benefit from unobtrusive collection of rich ecological data without disrupting and/or interrupting the user's primary activity cycle.

Real-Time Realistic Social Sharing of Experiences and EnvironmentsVatrapu, Ravi; Suthers, Dan; Joseph, Sam (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The Shared Experonments system provides interactive services for ubiquitous real-time interactive social sharing of experiences and environments. Designed and implemented for ubiquitous high-speed wireless environments, the Shared Experonments system provides synchronous ways and means for interactive social sharing of erstwhile personal experiences while one or more persons are in remote locations. Example scenarios include sharing of experiences with friends and family while off hiking or trekking, as well as business situations where a remote field worker must collaborate in real time with other field workers or head office. The Shared Experonments system integrates multiple realities and works in a variety of mixed reality modes and interactional settings, and crucially supports deixis from one environment to another.

A Space Indexed Song Selector, Mapper, and VisualizerVatrapu, Ravi; Joseph, Sam (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The Songs+Spaces system supports dynamic song selection and visualization based on the digital artifacts associated with a particular location. Songs+Spaces allows the user to select between different channels that filter out sets of digital artifacts associated with their current location. The Songs+Spaces system chooses songs based on user (self or other) preferences, geo-coded photos, videos, text annotations, and graphics associated with a particular place and uses them to provide visual accompaniment on the screen of a personal media player or heads up display. This application makes use of GPS or other location based services, and will run on any device that has access to such services URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7975

Technological innovation and the role of regulation by law in information systems research: The case of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)Ronzani, Daniel (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper-based thesis attempts to answer the question how the adoption and diffusion of RFID can be balanced successfully between technological innovation and regulation by law. To answer this question, an abductive reasoning perspective has been applied. The first premise of abduction includes four sets of observations presented in four articles; the second premise of abduction includes two hypothetical claims, and the third premise of abduction builds the case, i.e., concludes the thesis. As first step, the definitional framework is established. Ten theories of adoption and diffusion of technological innovation (TRA, TPB, MPCU, SCT, TAM, TAM2, C-TAM-TPB, IDT, PCI, and UTAUT) and their characteristics are investigated. They frame the technological viewpoint. Then, the reasons for regulation (public interest theory, private interest theory, and institutionalist theory) as well as the means of regulation (regulation by law, norms, market, and architecture) and their application are investigated. They frame the regulatory viewpoint. As second step, four observations are made that constitute the first premise of abduction based on the findings of four individual research articles referred to as the Database Article, Marketing Article, Modality Mix Article, and Survey Article: Database Article: This research article evaluates the strategic advantage of placing RFID databases in certain territorial and jurisdictional regions based on database regulation. The analysis of the database regulation by law in Europe and North America revealed that, based on the creativity, skill and judgement, and investment doctrine, they do not protect RFID data in databases. It is claimed that protection of RFID data in databases should be regulated by other means of regulation, for instance, by regulation by norms or architecture. Observation 1 stipulates: Despite the amount of data anticipated to be stored and the regulation by law in the different countries where RFID is adopted and diffused, the location of the databases containing RFID data does not seem to play an important role for the technological innovator. Marketing Article: This research article applies a legal use case for the technological innovations marketed by the industry as active RFID tags. The analysis of the RFID industry's marketing efforts and the unfavourable regulation by law is possible, and likely. Adopting the broad legal interpretation of self-emitting devices (short-range devices) to RFID tags that need to transduce energy from an RFID reader (active RFID tags) might allow the search and seizure of transmitted RFID data without a warrant to be in line with the constitutional rights. It is claimed that within the RFID industry there should be more awareness of regulation by legislation and adjudication. Observation 2 stipulates: Extending the doctrinal definition of active RFID tags to include reader-independent and indiscriminate signalling might lead to unfavourable regulation by law. Modality Mix Article: This research article offers a reflection on how law must manage the evolution of technological innovation. The analysis of the Draft Recommendation (2008) by the European Commission shows that the focus on regulation by law is inappropriate for a manageable diffusion of RFID technology. An over-regulation of RFID technology by regulation by law is possible if the Draft Recommendation (2008) is implemented and comes into force. It is claimed that a more diverse set of modalities (regulation by norms, market, and architecture) is necessary to successfully regulate RFID technology. Observation 3 stipulates: The current adoption and diffusion of RFID technology do not seem to be following an appropriate mix of regulation. Survey Article: This research article provides a reverse perspective of current RFID issues by examining the RFID industry's view of regulation by law and consumers. The analysis of the survey data of the RFID industry shows three shortcomings by the RFID industry in its engagement of legal experts, its knowledge of regulation by law for RFID subject-matter, and its information policy to the general public. It is claimed that the exchange between the RFID industry and the legal regulator needs to improve. Observation 4 stipulates: The interaction between, and consequently also the exchange of expert know-how and standpoints of, (i) the RFID industry and the legal regulator and (ii) the RFID industry and the consumers seem insufficient. As third step, two hypothetical claims are made as second premise of abduction based on a literature review of characteristics of adoption and diffusion of technological innovation in IS research, namely IT, EDI, and RFID. First, the research shows that in IS research there are only a few regulation-by-law characteristics (5 of 150 different characteristics). Thus, a first hypothetical claim is made that in IS research there is a lack of legal perspectives. Second, the research shows that in IS research there are even fewer characteristics of other regulatory means, such as for example, social norms, market or architecture. Thus a second hypothetical claim is made that in IS research there is a lack of diversity in regulation of technological innovation. Finally, a case is built as third premise of abduction. It seems possible to conclude that (i) based on observation 1 and hypothetical claim 2, increasing the diversity of regulation modalities might have a positive effect on the strategic management decisions for the location of RFID systems; (ii) based on observation 2 and hypothetical claim 1, increasing the legal perspective in IS research might have a positive effect on the RFID industry's marketing strategy; (iii) based on observation 3 and hypothetical claim 2, a more thorough and precise review of essential regulation by law is necessary; and (iv) based on observation 4 and hypothetical claim 1, increasing the legal perspective in IS research might have a positive effect on the RFID industry's awareness of the legal challenges and their consequences. It is suggested that the four cases (conclusions) built in this thesis provide a solid foundation for the following four hypotheses that can be further tested with additional empirical data: 1. Increasing the diversity of regulation modalities has a positive effect on the strategic management decisions for the deployment location of technological innovation. 2. Increasing the legal perspective in IS research has a positive effect on the marketing strategy for technological innovation. 3. Increasing the thoroughness and precision in the review of essential regulation by law has a positive effect on other regulatory tools for technological innovation. 4. Increasing the legal perspective in IS research has a positive effect on the industry's awareness of the legal challenges and their consequences. Therefore, to prevent bits from falling once they have learned to walk, the legal perspective of regulation in IS research as well as the diverse implementation of regulation in IS research should probably be increased. Such an increase might augment the awareness for the potential of regulation in technological innovation, which, in turn, might foster the adoption and diffusion of RFID.

Strategies, Business Models, and Management ModelAndersen, Kim Normann; Medaglia, Rony (Frederiksberg, 2009)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: European Commission funded research is driven by the objective of integrating excellent research in Europe by using public funding to gain momentum and sustainability. This paper presents the results of an analysis of the management patterns of 20 Networks of Excellence. Our analysis indicates an absence of business management competences in the project consortia and unclear criteria for sustainability. Sustainability strategies appear to be ad hoc driven and orchestrated by the project monitoring events, rather than built in the consortia management structure. The paper advocates for bringing onboard conventional management models along with strategic positioning, business models, and business plans. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7866

Abstract: Staten bruger millioner på rengøring alt mens ældrecentre og ældre i eget hjem er skydeskiven for de arbejdskraftbesparende teknologier. ABT-fondens indsats skønnes at skubbe yderligere til denne digitalisering. Budgetterne i den statslige sektor er ikke påvirket af robotteknologien, mens der eksperimenteres på livet løs i kommunerne. Mens kommunerne således har haft en række pilotforsøg og taget robotteknologien til sig, har de mange statslige styrelser, universiteter og departementer tilsyneladende holdt robotterne i arms længde. Derved har staten ikke blot lidt et ressourcetab, men også mindsket mulige afledte positive innovationsgevinster. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7787

Filmworks presents the American independent documentary "I Am Not Your Negro," a powerful reinvention of author and civil rights activist James Baldwin's unfinished book "Remember This House." An Oscar nominee for Best Documentary Feature, the film is directed by Haitian filmmaker Raoul Peck and narrated by Samuel L. Jackson.
Friday, March 10, 2017
5:30 and 8:30 p.m. at the Tower Theatre
USA • 95 minutes • Rated PG-13
View trailer
Owen Glieberman of Variety says: "Raoul Peck's 'I Am Not Your Negro' is the rare movie that might be called a spiritual documentary. It's a meditation on the prophetic brilliance and the very being of James Baldwin, the African-American writer who was more than a 'great thinker' on race — he was the prose-poet of our injustice and inhumanity (and our humanity, too)."
Inspired by "I Am Not Your Negro," board member Jefferson Beavers shares a trio of resistance films that unflinchingly document race relations in America. And in our latest installment of Streaming Surprises, our board members share a 1932 classic with deep social commentary, a Netflix series on the art of design, and a drama of choreographed adolescence.
