MYTH: Aerosols are not environmentally friendly.
REALITY: That is NOT true. All consumer and most other aerosol products made or sold in the U.S. now use propellants—such as hydrocarbons and compressed gases like nitrous oxide—that do NOT deplete the ozone layer.
Bag-on-Valve ('BOV') is a dispensing technology that is superior to conventional aerosol dispensing from the standpoint of safety, practicality and environmental impact (*not compatible with all products)
BOV sprays provide:
Non Flammable/Non Explosive (depending on formula)
Continuous spray
Even and controlled spraying
No chemical propellants–uses only the power of air
Longer shelf life

The Whole Ball of Wax, group exhibition juried by Joanne Mattera
The juried exhibition The Whole Ball of Wax will display images by thirty-five artists, all of whom integrate the medium of encaustic into their works. Images in this show address the way in which personal, cultural, social, and religious traditions have shaped, actually and metaphorically, the lives, experiences, memories, and expectations of women of different ages, races, belief systems, and sexual orientations. Many works in this exhibition manifest the anxiety associated with the demand for the impossible realization of an ideal female body, at once mother, wife, lover, and cultural producer. Other artists in the Invitational directly appropriate reference to religious iconography and practice, including those of Jews, Catholics, and even ancient Mayans in order to offer visual signifiers for bodily or psychological pain and suffering or social/historical marginalization.
Joanne Mattera has been a painter for 25 years. Over the past decade she has specialized in encaustic, showing her work in solo and group shows in the United States and abroad. Her recently published book, The Art of Encaustic Painting: Contemporary Expression in the Ancient Medium of Pigmented Wax (Watson-Guptill, 2001) has become the standard reference on the subject. Joanne Mattera divides her time between New York City and Salem, Massachusetts. She shows in Chicago at the Melanee Cooper Gallery. Mattera's artwork can be viewed on her website: http://www.joannemattera.com

Johan Hegardt & Anna Källén: "A Cosmopolitan History of Archaeology: The Olov Janse Case"
Källén, A and Hegardt, J 2014. A Cosmopolitan History of Archaeology: The Olov Janse Case. Bulletin of the History of Archaeology 24:7.
The life of international archaeologist Olov Janse (1892–1985) demonstrates the complexity of personal identify formation. Janse worked in Europe, Scandinavia, South East Asia and North America, spoke many different languages, controlled many collections of artefacts, changed identity or character at least five times, and nationality, three times.
It is hoped the themes, elucidated through Janse's story, will encourage comparisons with, and analyses of, the careers of other cosmopolitan archaeologists, and instigate an international history of archaeology focused on mobility, translation and networks, rather than one based on the impact of archaeology on the development of nation-states.

Welcome to the web supplement to Jerry Kang and Alan Butler, Communications Law & Policy (5th ed. 2016). (If you are UCLA School of Law student looking for the next assignment, get to my Commlaw course page.)
For students and faculty who are using the casebook, here are links to useful supplemental materials. You'll find links to background information, government agencies, key stakeholders and litigants, and the kinds of information that a curious student of the field would find useful.
Here's an unsolicited email from a former student, which well reflects the goal of the book (shared with permission):
Dear Professor Kang,I am writing to express my gratitude for your wonderful Communications Law & Policy course at UCLA last semester. I am a [foreign] LL.M student, who studied at UCLA last year and graduated in May 2011.I remember how you said several times that only a few students would probably work in telecommunications, and at that time I couldn't imagine that I would be one of them. But I am now working for a legal department of a mobile phone operator in New Zealand. I can't express enough how useful your course turned out to be for my job. It was one of the most challenging, but definitely the most rewarding and informative classes for me at UCLA. My boss and my colleagues have been very impressed by my knowledge, the amazingly broad perspective your course gives to students, the syllabus of the course and what we managed to covered in 6 months. The course and your manner of teaching is very forward-looking and very current. Anything like that doesn't exist neither in my home country, nor here. The course has been a great starting point for me and there hasn't been a single time when I felt lost or confused when I was given an assignment. Of course, I am learning new things every day and the job is very challenging, but I am ready to face any difficulties, having such good backup.I hope you continue to teach this great course to students from all over the world and we, in turn, will do our best to put the knowledge we got into practice and be the best in our areas of practice.Thank you again for your such professional, yet personal and passionate approach to teaching. I hope you have a great year.
Best regards,[anonymous student]
Feedback always appreciated.

What data storage solutions can help with increases in data-transfer volumes and bottlenecks?
It's important to implement data storage solutions for transfer volumes and bottlenecks as data continues to increase. Our virtualization expert Harley Stagner offers advice.
Chances are that many companies now are facing increasing storage demands. Large enterprises may already have systems in place to address the increased need. However, until recently SMBs have been overlooking their own growing storage needs. They may have been sitting happily with limited direct-attached storage (DAS) or storage islands. Now they realize that they have some of the same demands on their storage infrastructure as some large companies.
As a VAR you can help them assess whether it is the right time to implement a shared SAN infrastructure. This can be accomplished relatively inexpensively with the maturing iSCSI protocol. The advantage with many iSCSI arrays is that they often have their own cache, processors, memory and network ports. So, when you add one to a pool of virtualized storage, you are adding more processing power and throughput. If the customer is concerned about potential bottlenecks, network ports on iSCSI arrays can often be aggregated.
However, keep in mind that the bottleneck may not always be in the storage array. It could be in the server, the networking equipment (switch) or even in a particular application that is utilizing the storage. When analyzing the customer's environment, I find it useful to approach the project using the OSI model. Start from the physical layer and work your way up to the application layer, measuring potential bottlenecks along the way. Collecting logs and measuring performance to establish a baseline acceptable behavior for a storage infrastructure before implementing a complicated storage system can go a long way when you are in the initial design phases of an assessment project.

With great independent labels, artists have a history of being A&R's. At Wild Pitch Records in the early '90s, it was MC Serch who helped sign O.C. and Non-Phixion. At Tommy Boy Records around the same time, producer Dante Ross was responsible for the signings of acts like De La Soul and Digital Underground. This week it was announced that Coney Island emcee Torae [click to read] will carry on this rich tradition in Hip Hop, as he was named A&R for Soulspazm Records.
"I've known Jim Drew, [CEO of Soulspazm] since 2007 when Marco Polo introduced us," Torae told HipHopDX. "We've been in business together since I dropped Daily Conversation [click to read] which was one of the first projects on Soulspazm Digital. I always admired his honesty and ginuine-ness in this business and he respected my hustle, talent and drive. During one of our talks, the A&R [position opening] came up and I was more than excited to make it happen. I get people asking me to listen to their music all the time but I've never been in a position to do more than just listen and give 'em some feedback. Now I can actually do something to help get their music out there if its dope."
Torae will be signing and developing artists to the label that's had a hand in introducing Hezekiah and Pumpkinhead, while also releasing albums from Supastition and Grand Agent. "The first cat I hollered at when I got the position was my homie Kil Ripkin from The Coalescence. I knew he had heat on deck and I wanted to make sure he knew Soulspazm was an option. I also got at my man Vandalyzm [click to read] from St. Louis. These are two ill dudes that aren't getting enough shine right now. The first deal I did was with War Machine for the B.A.M & Ric Rude project which drops September 1st."
Soulspazm CEO Jim Drew added, "We're thrilled to have Torae come on board as an A&R for Soulspazm. Besides having a great ear for quality music, his experience as a successful independent artist is an invaluable tool for the artists we work with."
Torae & Marco Polo's Double Barrel [click to read] released earlier this year and is in stores now.

Collab Mayhem!
Lights, music, que models…ACTION!
"NO, WAIT! That bag looks like a cake that flopped when it came out the oven! It needs more stuffing!"
Have you ever been backstage at a fashion show? You'd think it would be smooth sailing, right?
Think more…(insert intensely witty ship-meets-roaring-ocean phrase.)
We're into fashion,okay - the only shipping we do is sending our online orders to international customers.
Back to the point – it's MAYHEM!
The RU trio that is Chad (the genius), Erin (the creative) and Kirsti (the walking lens) flew up to Jozi to RU-accessorize the oh-so-suave De Mil show in the A/W18 SA Fashionweek in Sandton.
You'd swear we were wrapping up an entire warehouse of fine China with the amount of bubble wrap we were handling behind the scenes.
Nope – just, you know, stuffing our bags to make them look good in the spotlight.
"How was the show?"
"…we wouldn't know."
Yes – flying up to the big J-H-B to not see the show! The creative-genius couple stayed behind the scenes pounding plastic bubbles into our handcrafted masterpieces in a matter of seconds and placing them very strategically on the multipla of models ie. In their hands.
Well, obviously on their back's, too. Ha.
And I, the walking lens , lived up to my title and snapped away, capturing everything from men with sapphire blue lipstick (YAAS!) to our gorgeous products strutting their stuff down the runway. This, while being told I wasn't allowed to stand where I wanted to in order to snap away.
…I stayed there anyway.
And obviously, being Fashionweek, us ladies opted to wear heels - vanity knows no pain, right?
Well, yes. Because we lost all feeling in our feet by the end of the night.
And all of this mayhem, for a 7 minute show.
But do you want to know something? We'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Zendesk Feature Request for multiple optionsAnswered
I would like know if when using shortcuts combined with the option lists that there be an auto tag feature available depending on what the user selects. For example, if user selects an option from a list via shortcut that tag of the option gets automatically updated.
I think it would be useful and I don´t know if its possible but maybe that option list even populate the corresponding field ticket on the zendesk ticket as well? Maybe too much to ask but hey the holidays are around. :)
1 Comments
Hi Darren,
Great feedback. What you are asking for isn't possible with shortcuts alone but you can make it happen using a trigger with the shortcut.
Based on the content of the message, you can get the trigger to apply a tag to the chat automatically.
So for example, this is one trigger I created based on options in a shortcut survey I created:
Try that out and let me know how it goes for you.

Erotica empowers women by allowing us to explore our fantasies without the risk. That doesn't mean we're no longer feminists.
Heavy sighs. Deep moans. Twenty-seven different ways to say penis without actually using the word.
My summer has been filled with pages and pages of them. And I love every single word.
As someone who is outspoken about women's rights and runs a somewhat serious book club, I don't usually broadcast that I read erotica. I inhaled more than my fair share of romance novels during my teenage years, until I discovered Anne Rice's The Sleeping Beauty Chronicles. I read in secret but longed to discuss these new-to-me ideas with someone. The internet was still fairly new then, so I couldn't just hop onto a BDSM forum to ask questions. I kept my penchant for erotica a secret.
Fast forward years later, when the infamous Fifty Shades of Grey became all the rage. My girlfriends messaged to ask about the Anastasia and Christian's bedroom shenanigans. They knew my background selling sex toys at in-home parties (like Tupperware but more thrilling) and trusted my discretion. I answered all their questions about ben wa balls, butt plugs and bondage.
After my friends devoured E. L. James' trilogy, they begged me for suggestions. My cover was blown. I could no longer hide that, yes, I am a feminist who enjoys reading erotica about the power play between a female submissive and her dom.
While I'm not embarrassed by the stack of steamy books on my nightstand, I didn't wanted to be judged by my reading choices. I've met moms at the park who scoff at romance and erotica readers, claiming these readers had no love life or they were cheating on their husbands with such books. (Yes, really.)
The opposite is true. Back in my days of hawking sex toys in my hostess' living room, my clients regaled me tales of hot sex with their husbands after reading Fifty Shades. Others quietly admitted that the book empowered them to discuss their fantasies with their partners. Some felt renewed interested in sex and demanded more orgasms. They bought warming lubes, vibrators, and ben wa balls–ready to take charge of their sexual pleasure. If that's not being a feminist, I'm not sure what is.
Erotica empowers women by allowing us to explore our fantasies without the risk. So what if we're turned on by the idea of being tied to the bed? That doesn't mean we're no longer feminists. Being a feminist doesn't mean having to be strong and in control all of the time. Sensual, sexy tales allow us to choose how we express our sexuality.
After my self-imposed hiatus (when I read mostly literary fiction), I hopped back onto the erotica bike a few years ago. I found that the genre had matured during our trial separation! Mutual orgasms are no longer penultimate goal. In most books, our hot hunk goes down on our heroine like it's his God-given duty. His golden sword doesn't go anywhere near her until she's had at least two orgasms.
I say, you can never go wrong with oral sex and more orgasms.

With the adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars just months away from hitting theaters, Fox 2000 Pictures has likely seen that fans want more movies based on Green's novels. Deadline is reporting that the production company has started development and will be adapting Green's 2008 novel, Paper Towns.
Fox also seemed to like the team that worked on The Fault in Our Stars movie. It was announced yesterday that screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber will once again be penning the script, and producers Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen will also be returning. There is currently no director signed on to the project.
John Green will be an executive producer on this project along with Neustadter and Weber. In some other interesting news, actor Nat Wolff, who portrays Isaac in Fault, has been cast as Quentin.
Paper Towns follows Quentin, a young man who shares a strange connection with his neighbour Margo. As kids, they found a man who committed suicide in a local park. Margo ends up distancing herself from Quentin. until one night when she drags him out on a crazy adventure of revenge. The next morning she has vanished and Quentin takes it upon himself to search for her.
Sounds like it is going to be one big reunion on set! What do you think of this news? Are you looking forward to hearing more casting and production news for Paper Towns?

Unkai Terrace - Get Above a Beautiful Sea of Clouds in Hokkaido
Cloud Walk : risonare.com
The Unkai Terrace in Hokkaido promises a mind-blowing and breathtaking sight. Go on a gondola ride up the mountain, be prepared to arrive above a sea of moving clouds, and be treated to one of the most beautiful sights. The journey here is definitely not an easy one, but good things are worth working for, right? The terrace is only open from mid May to mid October, and I'll recommend that you go in August or September for the best possible view. The type of unkai that you'll see depends on a variety of factors such as humidity and temperature.

Morton's Steakhouse Singapore - An All New Sunday Lunch Menu
My favourite steakhouse has spiced up their Sunday Lunch Menu with tantalising new additions that will charm your socks off. Apart from the droolworthy selection of Morton's specialties and prime steaks, Morton's has kept their value-for-money three-course lunch set which goes for $98++.
Exciting new dishes include Short Rib Tacos and Beef Tenderloin Sandwiches. Morton's also pays homage to the all-time favourite BLT, with their rendition of Crab Cake BLT. Morton's might be known for their steak, but they are quite the master when it comes to seafood too. I tried their Honey-Balsamic Glazed Salmon Fillet before, and was utterly mesmerized.

Hey! I'm back — I think. We've moved into a different place for the remainder (probably) of our time away from home — a Ronald McDonald House. It is great — by the way, absolutely worth tossing your coins (or bills or checks) into the boxes while getting some fries and whatnot — anyhow, their WiFi seems pretty stable, and there are no immediate plans to update it (I think it was a bad job of installing new hardware that killed things at the last place — the poor hotel staff didn't have a clue what to do with so many angry customers). I should be okay for the foreseeable future. Thankfully, I was still able to pull together a few odds 'n ends over the week about books and reading that caught my eye. You've probably seen some/most/all of them, but just in case:
- Remember a couple of weeks ago when I was posting about OceanofPDF and a diverse group of authors taking umbrage with their stealing? Well here's an update: 'Elitist': angry book pirates hit back after author campaign sinks website — authors being attacked for wanting to get paid for their work. World's gone mad. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!
- The Crack Squad of Librarians Who Track Down Half-Forgotten Books: Reuniting stumped readers with the books from the edges of their memories. — Awesome.
- It's Never Too Late to Be a Reader Again
- An American Original: Rex Stout — this is just a great short piece about Rex Stout and his fiction. I love finding new things written about Stout and/or Nero Wolfe. Also, it has my favorite lines from P. G. Wodehouse.
- The Magic of Longmire Days: Thousands of Readers Make a Summer Pilgrimage to Wyoming. Why? — I have got to make my way there.
- Learn how Harry Bosch in print wound up in San Fernando — Michael Connelly was on Dateline NBC last night — I haven't seen it yet, and the episode wasn't online last I had the opportunity to check. But here's a little taste in the form of some bonus material.
- Lee Child and Naked Blue at work — The video is described as "Lee Child introduces Jen and Scott Smith of Naked Blue as they finish their album: "Lee Child and Naked Blue" available November 2nd, 2018." Yes, an entire album of songs set in the Reacher-verse. I am so there.
- If you love to read, you'll get lost in these 11 charming books about books
- Book Bloggers & How To Approach Them — I've seen this bouncing around on Twitter a bit and after reading it you'll see why.
- My Book Blogger Grumbles Vol 1 — there's a touch of overlap here, but not much
- This homemade literary quote clock is the best way to recycle an old Kindle — I've got one that just might do the trick. This is pretty cool — I've messed around a little bit with one of the web-based versions inspired by this. Really great idea.
- Your Favourite Book Characters Drawn By People Who've Never Read the Book — " We decided to conduct an experiment to see what people would draw having heard only a single description. We chose not to tell people they'd be drawing book characters – aside from asking them to draw the person based on the description they heard, we provided them with no context at all. The character description we chose are from famous novels and are of famous characters, not that the volunteering artists knew that. We thought it would be interesting to opt for books that had already been made into films, so we could highlight the differences between what people pieced together from the book vs what the films show us the actors should look like." Some of these are freakin' fantastic, I should add.
- This Week's New Releases I'm Excited About and/or You'll Probably See Here Soon:
- In the Stacks: Author's Enhanced Edition by Scott Lynch — a revised and expanded version of his short story.
- See You Soon, Afton by Brent Jones — the second of four novellas about Afton Morrison, everyone's favorite librarian/would-be-murderer.
- In Truth and Claw by Ari Marmell — the fourth Mick Oberon novel, and the second reminder that I need to read the second Mick Oberon novel (also, #s 3 and 4) — bought it years ago, just need to, you know read it. A Fae living in 1930's Chicago and working as a PI. I mean, come on, who doesn't want to read that?
Lastly, I'd like to say hi and extend a warm welcome to Leah's Bookish Obsession and Johnny for following some form of the blog this week.

Surely it is not just me that thinks our world is moving more and more toward chaos and the very un-structuring of order. The insane practice of people texting while driving, for instance; we should not have to pass a law to try to stop such ridiculous activity. Where is the common sense to keep your eyes on the road? People want to out law guns to stop gun violence when the facts show that crime is higher in gun-free zones; friends it is a matter of the heart, not of guns! We have traded all thought of proper discipline in the home and school for forms that do not work, and then wonder why our kids are disruptive and fight authority. Our teachers are not supported by parents nor school administrators; they have their hands tied, the kids know it and throw gas on the fire. In business (speaking from experience), people demand un-obtainable perfection with unreasonable time frames, and then bring law suits when the impossible is not delivered ahead of schedule. I could go on, but I think you get the point with these few examples. What do these things have in common? We will investigate in the coming days.
Strive for peace and order…look for a blessing this day!

But my wife is very special, and I thought it was time to to do what was right. I think I am more excited then anyone that I have made that special leap in life.

A Car Vending Machine, Wait…What?
Carvana, one of the top eCommerce platforms for purchasing used cars, opened its' fourth Car Vending Machine in Texas, joining Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. The Frisco Car Vending Machine, just north of Dallas, will offer a one of a kind and inventive way for Carvana customers to pick up their purchased auto and will be the fifth of its kind in the nation. The Car Vending Machine stands eight stories tall, contains four delivery inlets, and holds up to 30 autos. After finishing the auto purchase online using Carvana's website, customers can select to get their vehicle from the new Frisco Car Vending Machine or use their 24-hour delivery service inside 100 miles of the Dallas metropolitan area. "Following the launch of our free, as-soon-as-next-day delivery service in Dallas in May 2015, we're pleased to bring our automated Car Vending Machine to Frisco," said Ernie Garcia, founder and CEO of Carvana. All autos are guaranteed through Carvana's thorough 150-point review and highlight a 100-day/4,189-mile packed in warranty. Carvana likewise offers a 7-day merchandise exchange that enables customers to return their vehicle for any reason and get a discount. The new location is strategically placed right off State Highway 121 and vehicle pickup is free for all Carvana customers. For customers that live outside of the Dallas area delivery territory, Carvana will finance $200 in airfare and orchestrate white glove transportation from the Dallas airplane terminal. You can also decide to use Thrifty Auto Shipping, a highly reputable car shipping company based out of Dallas to pick up and deliver your car to you. They offer nationwide auto shipping services whether open trailer or fully enclosed the options are available. This concept is so unique! Hopefully, these cars won't get stuck between the glass and the drop off point like some of these candy bars do sometimes because you sure wouldn't be able to shake it loose!

Here's what I won't do:

This Spring Vegetable Israeli Couscous is loaded with Asparagus, Peas, and Sugar Snap peas and can be served as a side or main meal. Light, yet filling and so flavorful!
I'm thinking I should rebrand Belly Full as "Lover of Israeli Couscous" or "Party with Peas" or "Lemon Everything" – what do you think? Not catchy enough, huh?
But damn. Those three things do seem to pop up here frequently <<< because I. Love. Them. All.
Once upon a time, I didn't even like peas. Who was that gal??? I don't even know her. Now I put them in everything (much to Trevor's disapproval. Although he is coming around. SEE, that 10-time rule – which is really more like a 50-time rule – really does work!)
Spotted this recipe in Epicurious and I knew immediately I would love it. And I did.
I made this around 10am, thinking I would save it for lunch. Well, it became more like a late breakfast because I couldn't stop eating. Serves 6? Um, sure. Unless you have a thing for couscous, snap peas, and lemon. And can't control yourself around food you crave. Then, it serves 2.
Israeli Couscous with Asparagus, Peas, and Sugar Snaps
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil , divided
- 2 large garlic cloves , minced and divided
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 1/3 cups Israeli (Pearl) Couscous
- 1 3/4 cups vegetable stock
- 14 ounces (about 2 1/2 cups) thin asparagus spears, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 8 ounces (about 2 1/2 cups) sugar snap peas, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 cup shelled frozen sweet peas , defrosted
- 1/3 cup finely diced scallions
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons oil, 1 garlic clove, lemon juice, and lemon zest; set dressing aside.
- In a medium pot, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add couscous and a dash salt; sauté until most of couscous is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the vegetable stock, increase heat, and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and couscous is tender, about 10 minutes, adding more broth by tablespoonfuls if too dry.
- In the meantime, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over high heat in a large nonstick sauté pan. Add asparagus, sugar snap peas, peas, and remaining garlic clove. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; sauté until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a large bowl.
- Add couscous to bowl with vegetables. Drizzle dressing over. Add scallions and cheese; toss. Season with salt and pepper. Serve right away or at room temperature.

This is delicious. It's absolutely worth the trouble. I like it best fresh & very soft.
Jul 9, 2012
This is good ice cream, but I wouldn't say that it's the best I've ever made. It is really a lot of putzing around to make it and takes quite a bit of time from start to finish.
Aug 7, 2011
This is amazing, a great homemade ice cream recipe. We tried to triple to fit our 6 quart but it was too much. So use caution if attempting to make a larger recipe.
Jul 15, 2010
The best homemade ice creams are made with a custard base. Using other kinds of fruit in this would be great (peach !) Two more factors for a great result: 1.Patience to chill mixture overnight before churning,then waiting another day before serving so that texture is at the max. 2. Invest in a really good ice cream maker. It's worth the money if you love ice cream.
May 29, 2010
This is amazing! So easy to make, the only ting I would do differently is to mix a bit of the custard into the cream cheese before mixing them together. It was a bit difficult to blend in the cream cheese since it was so much thicker. I also used fresh chopped strawberries since they are in season and I don't care for big frozen chunks of strawberries in my ice cream. The texture is so creamy and it wasn't greasy like another recipe I tried. Delishious!!!

I am trying to do this recipe today will let you know how it turns out. I am just trying to figure out why the 4 cups of half and half is divided? I didn't see where you would use the other half. So, if it just calls for 2 cups why wouldn't it say 2 cups instead of four divided? Please Help!!

I make cheesecake of all kinds and this recipe looked interesting to me. I made it for Memorial Day and it got rave reviews from my family. I will be making it again.

The past decade has seen considerable changes in the spaces women occupy in American culture, including an increase in the number of women with major roles in politics and in the media. Indeed, women's engagements with social media have opened up new opportunities for grassroots activism and the creation of more distributed communities.
At the same time, this explosion of popular media that has made strong and important women more visible continues to reinforce traditional stereotypes , and one need only briefly visit social media sites, look at other outlets for new media, or listen to popular music across all genres to discover that extreme forms of sexual objectification, violence against women, and misogyny are as ubiquitous as ever.
We are soliciting articles that examine the degree to which contemporary popular culture serves as a site of containment or resistance for the agendas of women interested in promoting and advancing social justice and equality; concomitantly, this entails the ongoing critique and deconstruction of persistent ideologies, agendas, cultural vehicles.
Papers should be 15-25 pages in 12 point font Times New Roman, Subject Heading: Women and Popular Culture Special Issue, and submitted as a Microsoft Word attachment to email@example.com by February 15, 2011. Please place notes at the end of your document, and use the citation format that predominates in your discipline.

I seem to get writer's block often – and always conveniently – when it comes to putting my thoughts into typed or written words. It always annoys me. Sometimes it passes quickly, other times not. But as I sat and sulked about my stupid block from the moment I posted on New Year's Eve until, well, now – my mind kept going back to a dream I'd had a week ago. I was standing in my old classroom from Middle School, and I was talking to a teacher that, in my dream, seemed to be this combination of all my 8th grade teachers. When I looked at his face, it was blurred – you know, like the CLASSY drug lord girlfriends on Cops that are too good to show their faces. Regardless of not being able to entirely name the teacher, I was excited to see him. I told him of my family, how quickly they'd grown, and how even my little Charlie would soon be a one-year-old.
As I was talking I felt weird. My mouth seemed to move awkwardly, like I suddenly had braces or a retainer and I wanted to sound as if I didn't. My teacher would reply and smile an awkward (pixelated?) smile which looked normal in my mind's eye. I ran my tongue over my teeth and nodded in response to my old teacher's news and stories. My tongue felt swollen, something was wrong with my mouth, I could feel it.
Then my teeth fell out.
I could hear the root release from my gum, and feel the rush of air filling its place. One by one they fell at my feet. I was horrified. I tried to explain, but what was there to say? Without teeth, I couldn't form my words or speak clearly. My teacher passed this off as normal and handed me a green notepad with a pencil and asked for my address so he could attend something that was being held at my home.
I put the pencil's point on the paper and started to write. I watched my letters and numbers. All correct – I found this a relief, as if I had some underlying worry that it wouldn't be correct. I handed him the paper and he looked at me confused. My writing had changed! The numbers were different, the letters spelling different streets. When I tried again, I couldn't write at all. My muscles ached and twisted in my hands and I pasted that too-familiar I'm okay smile on my face as I pushed through the pain and tried again. And again. But it always changed the second I lifted my pencil. No matter what I wrote, it never came out right.
Then I woke up.
I guess at least I have my teeth.

Houston to end ties with security company after fan assault
HOUSTON (AP) A University of Houston athletic department official says the school will end its contract with a security company after reviewing video of one of the guards hitting a fan in the head area following the Cougars win over Temple.
Associate athletic director of communications David Bassity on Sunday said the decision to sever ties with CSC was made after reviewing video of the Saturday night incident. He said no decision has been made about possible legal action against the company.
Bassity said the school's police department, which is investigating the incident, has spoken with the man who was hit.

Our Approach
Science Reckoner was started to explores the science of teaching and learning in all its dimensions. We examine the impacts of technologies and other social and emotional practices on the process of learning. What we have seen is that the stress and fear anxiety about science subjects in general is a very severe problem area for most the students and we hope to explore different ways and methods of classroom learning and beyond and employ innovative technologies and mediums and to use the power of the Internet to simplify the process of learning and making it fun at the same time. We remain focused and committed and work towards that goal and we aim to keep our passionate audience informed through the multiple social media platforms.
How it Started
As an active learner and teacher, I have always been fascinated by the science subjects, especially biology, and through my vast experience as a teacher over the years what I have noticed is that there is an inherent fear in the minds of student about the science subjects. Maybe there is a lack of interest or the basic concepts are not clear and so it has been an ongoing endeavor for myself to find out the different ways and methodology and styles of teaching to make the process of learning more engaging and more interesting and fun for the student so that they can overcome their fear of the science subjects and have a clear understanding of the basic concepts. So using technology and the power of Internet and the e-Learning process, I wanted to reach out to the students from all around the world and share my knowledge and experience with them through this platform and hence we created Science Reckoner in July of 2017 as an E-Learning Platform to spread and share the knowledge with everyone. With the effective use of videos and colorful animation, learning becomes much more engaging and ability to interact with students from all around the world in real time is a big advantage for them and also makes the process much more interactive.

This was my 1st Zopo and it has been a fantastic experience! Being a dual sim it let me manage my work brillinatly and, at the same time, allowed me to use it to see videos, films, play games and chat.
Despite the high dimension and utilization the battery was always enought and in 1yr time I never had to replace it or buy a spare one. Also important the GPS worked fine!
Some issues with the earphones, I changed them many times before I discovered how to root the phone. The external microphone is not too loud so is not good to make calls live.

Type: Private Residence – Toronto, Playter Estates
Completed: 2014
Hidden behind concealed double doors, this third-floor renovation in Toronto's Playter Estates creates a luxurious, grown-up retreat for its owners.
Once comprising the family room and a guest bedroom, the clients sought to transform the top level of their house into a private, refined master level. Far more than just a bedroom, the enclave – which fits a king-size bed and ample built-in storage – also contains a complete home theatre system. This system is concealed thanks to a retractable ceiling mounted projection screen and built-in speakers. There is a large west-facing skylight which opens to a small balcony. A linear, three-sided fireplace is enjoyed from both the bathroom and the bedroom.
The new custom master bathroom is a lavish escape in itself, complete with steam shower, large freestanding bathtub framed by an existing bay window, and its own outdoor terrace, which opened off the previous family room. A double vanity is located against a short wall, which acts as a divider from the dressing area behind.
Moving upstairs also created an opportunity for the owners to rework their old second-floor bathroom into a functional, easy-to-clean space which will serve their two teenage sons for years to come. A warm, neutral palette was used to add maturity and longevity to the bathroom design. The new, more spacious layout contains a generous custom vanity with two sinks and ample storage, and replaces a separate bathtub with an open-plan shower.

Keeping it Light: Decor Tips for Small Spaces
Decorating a small room or space can come along with a variety of constraints. Many times you'll find it difficult to cram all of your style into such a limiting square footage, but this can be mitigated by making a few sound design choices. While there are endless elements to consider, it's best to start with the basics.
- Enhancing and utilizing light.
- Opting for neutrals with pops of color.
- Creating eye-grabbing focal points.
This set-up is a great example of small space design done right. Even if you don't have a lot of windows (which in a small room is quite common), mirrors are an incredible way to capture light. While one might first think of mirrors for wall decor, this is far too limiting. Whether it's a mirrored coffee table in your living room or a dresser in your bedroom, this little addition will bring light and reflection into your space.
By going with a neutral couch and pops of color in the pillows, this living room will have just enough personality without becoming overwhelming. By adding a few special touches to the coffee table, shells in this case, your eye is able to focus on something decorative rather than the small space at hand.
Happy decorating!
Inspiration from Instagram: Flooring
We are inspired by the Instagram account @ihavethisthingwithfloors, which features floors and the shoes that are standing on them. From words and phrases to subway tiles to immaculately painted designs, these floors are pretty amazing. Once you start looking, you can't stop!
For so long, floors in homes and bathrooms have been mostly neutral woods or tiles, but now it's time to add a little interest under your feet. Go for a bold black and white stripe in the kitchen or a fun and playful pattern for the playroom. It's a conversation starter, and maybe your floor will end up featured on @ihavethisthingwithfloors! Be sure to check out our Pinterest Board for some design ideas of your own.

A Frame with no Mirror
Who says you need a mirror to make the most out of a frame. Granted, nine times out of ten your frame will be, well, framing something. But that one out of ten times it isn't can make for a really intriguing design element.
On a recent shopping trip I found myself wandering into one of the many antique shops in the area. Like most of these shops, items were stacked tall like pancakes and ran along all available wall space. Despite the sensory overload my eye was immediately drawn to an item in their courtyard. A frame on an easel. Simple but undeniably elegant. So I got to thinking, do you really need to frame something or can the frame itself be the art? If this setup here is any indicator, an ornate frame can most certainly be an eye-catching standalone piece.
Ceiling Paint: From Useful to Stylish
A trend I noticed on a recent trip to Charleston, SC, is the painting of porch ceilings. At first, I thought that it was just a trendy movement in the south, but I've come to discover that the residents painted it blue to deter bugs (a worthy cause in mosquito country).
This bug repellent technique is a pretty one and can easily be implemented in your home. Painting the ceiling of a neutral bathroom, hallway, or even bedroom can add character and unique flare that was missing before.

Should people roughhouse with dogs?
I love to rough house with my dogs. However, there are rules to make sure everyone is safe.
ALWAYS supervise children playing with dogs. Accidents happen. Your dog could easily bite too hard and hurt your child. Your child might not be able to read your dog and know when the dog has reached a level or arousal that is not appropriate.
Dogs do not generalize; this means that they cannot and do not know that all rules apply in every situation. Each situation is different to them. This means that dogs know that with dad, anything goes, with mom I am not allowed to mouth, and I am not allowed to roughhouse with kids at all. Dogs and puppies can easily learn different rules for different members of the family.

The White Studio: first British manufacturer of handmade yoga wheels (launch media release)
- First wood flexibility wheel handmade in the UK
- Valuable aid for fitness fans who wish to improve their backbends and overall flexibility
- Made with sustainable materials, and sporting unique features
British wellbeing hub The White Studio introduces the first flexibility wheel, handcrafted from wood, to be produced in the UK.
The White Studio's flexibility wheel is a 33cm-diameter wheel with an ergonomically-friendly 14.5cm width to accommodate the individual's backbend (as exercises are performed) and provide more stability.
The wheel is used to increase flexibility of the user's middle and lower back, open the upper back and as an aid to develop strength, balance and control as well as perform deeper stretches and backbends.
The White Studio Commercial Director Simon Lines explains: "When The White Studio began planning flexibility classes, we looked around for a competitively-priced quality wheel to use in the studio. Imagine our surprise to discover that our choices were essentially reduced to either a cheap, plastic wheel (imported from China) or a very expensive – though good quality – wood wheel (imported from the USA).
"With this in mind, we set about exploring the possibility of constructing our own wheels here in the UK, a country with an outstanding history of manufacturing bespoke, high quality products."
The White Studio's initial choice was wood construction, but there are other materials (apart from the ubiquitous 'injection moulded plastic') that lend themselves to fitness wheel production.
The basis of all The White Studio wheels is laminated wood construction: thin sheets bonded together to form light and flexible, yet incredibly strong wheels. With this method as a basis, thinner wood wheels (which, by themselves, cannot meet weight requirements) were reinforced with a variety of different materials, giving differing 'feels' when used.
"Our research lead us to the conclusion that wood is only an option and that while 100% wood is actually our preferred method, wheels constructed using a mix of materials give some great results."
The White Studio flexibility wheels can be specified as wider than standard size, and therefore be more supportive. Most wheels on the market are around 125mm wide (5 inches). This 'one-size-fits-all' approach would be acceptable if humans were all (literally) one size. The White Studio took the view that, for better support, the basic wheel size should be closer to 6in wide, with options to go wider or narrower as required.
Because The White Studio wheels are individually crafted, there is scope for tremendous flexibility to construct them in a variety of widths, weights and stiffness, but also from a variety materials, even carbon fibre. There literally is a wheel to suit any budget, weight load requirement and design preference.
All The White Studio wheels are handmade in the UK, come with a 3-year limited warranty and are tested to a maximum load weight of 110kg. Prices start at £99.

3157 Elisa Anne Way
Sebastopol, CA 95472
CRAIG STREHLOW: I am the former winegrower/winemaker with Keefer Ranch and Keefer Ranch wines. For 13 years I managed the vineyard and crafted a single vineyard Pinot Noir that, among the other notable wines from the property, helped gain the vineyard great recognition among Pinot fans near and far.
ALAN CAMPBELL: I am a Sonoma County native and local photographer focused for the past 27 years on capturing the beauty and romance of wine country, all the while trying my hand at a number of DIY projects that captured my attention and imagination; gardener, farmer, winemaker and winegrower.
Our focus has narrowed with this project and we're happy to share with you our Estate grown Magna Porcum Pinot Noir from the Green Valley of Russian River Valley. It's a very limited release each year. We also offer a Camlow Russian River Pinot Noir made from the grapes on nearby vineyards and our own vineyard.
CRAIG: I make the wine with input from Alan. Our aim is to craft wines that have a sense of balance and place. Good acidity, ripe tannins and rich fruit (with a hint of French Oak). Letting the fruit and vintage speak with low input winemaking. Not using too much new oak.
Being in control of the farming in our estate vineyard allows us to closely manage variables and bring you a truly handcrafted product. Alan and I have known each other for 10 years. His passion for food and wine, right down to getting his hands in everything (with exceptional results) is how our friendship came about.
ALAN: Craig makes great wine, which along with our being good friends, is why I went into business with him. Among other things, I roast the pork and, yes, I do help make our wines and I'll continue to do so. I also own and manage my four acres of Pinot Noir in Graton, a vineyard that I've named Big Pig Vineyard, clearly after my affinity for all things pork. We are currently releasing our second bottling of our Single Vineyard Estate Wine, Magna Porcum.
We hope you an have interest in trying our wine. Please contact us with any questions, to schedule a private tasting or to place an order. We'd love to chat with you and share what's happening in our little corner of wine country.
Cheers! Craig and Alan
