It's been a very long time. We've been well all the time but this blog has been in a kind of coma. I kept thinking in blog-posts, but starting with my usual summer-blogging-sluggishness I found that my lack of time and technical equipment made it too frustrating to really post something. Anything. Now I'm still working full-time (more than ever, actually), but I got a new camera and a laptop of my own. Before I shared the computer with my family especially watching eyeTV, so I usually only got to do something fun with it when everyone else was in bed. Mostly getting my daily fix of apartment therapy and pinterest. And maybe a game of Mahjong or two. As far as I can tell from the last two weeks since I own this little acer-baby I won't be kicking these bad habits anytime soon, but now I hope to be able to squeeze in some blogging during daytime. The other main reason for being absent was my growing frustration with my really bad photos. Back in the old days, when blogging was still relatively new and pinterest didn't exist, taking good photos wasn't that important, at least not to me, I was happy to see and do a decent shot with my point-and-shoot-camera. But, being a cold-and-grey-winterdays-blogger I always had problems with lighting. Well, the blogging-world matured, but neither my camera nor my skills as a photographer did. I'm working on that one now, though I still find it intimidating but I hope it's like learning how to drive: In the beginning I couldn't imagine that one day I'd be able to shift gears without even thinking about it and anticipating most traffic situations. And: I decided to keep it real. Maybe I've had an overdose of all these picture-perfect pictures, but all this perfection on AT and pinterest bores me increasingly. It's still nice for inspiration and aspiration to see perfectly staged living-rooms with cords all hidden or rustic cakes elaborately styled with just the right amount of crumbs beneath, but: my life (and my home and my cakes) is certainly not perfect but good enough. And yes, I still like to share it with you. Because I'm curious myself (I'm a big fan of house-tours and enjoy peeking into other people's windows on winter-evenings), because I like tutorials and recipes and think it's only fair to give something in return and yes, because I like to show off and brag, like all the other people blogging about their lives, I guess. Which leads me to the question of relevance: does this world need this blog? Certainly not. There are thousands of more interesting, more beautiful, more helpful and more consistent blogs out there and frankly, in the transition to this laptop I cut down the list of my favourites and subscriptions by 2/3 myself, I'm not reading all these blogs anymore, if ever. But apart from that ego-thing there is still my longing of being part of a creative community and, occasionally, remote friends and my mother-in-law dropping by (and complaining that there hasn't been anything new for a very long time ;-)). So here we go, I'm planning on wasting more web-space for as long as I feel like it. And adorn it with real pictures of my real home:

I guess I'm the last german blog- and bake addict who finally discovered initiative sonntagssüß. And upon this discovery I have to state that I already celebrate lots of Sonntagssüß (SundaySweet), almost every weekend I just have to bake. Simply because I like making things and I like sweet things. But here I'm a bit lonely with this passion for sweet, my husband prefers savory dishes and our son prefers store-bought sticky-sweet. But there are still friends and colleagues… This experiment was even liked by my family:
Ich bin wohl die letzte Blog- und Backsüchtige des Landes, die nun endlich auch die initiative sonntagssüß entdeckt hat. Und ob dieser Entdeckung stelle ich fest, dass ich so ein Sonntagssüß ohnehin meist schon zelebriere, denn kaum ist Wochenende packt mich die Backlust. Einfach weil ich so gerne Sachen mache und lecker Süßes mag. Damit bin ich allerdings recht allein hier, mein Mann isst lieber lecker Herzhaft und das Kind nascht lieber lecker klebrig-Kaufsüß, mehr als je ein Anstandshappen ist da eher selten. Aber es gibt ja Freunde und immer hungrige Kollegen… Und dieses Experiment fand auch in der Familie Gefallen:
Here's the recipe by raspberri cupcakes, found via pinterest:
(makes 12 muffins, adapted from this Orange & Poppy Seed Muffin recipe from Taste.com.au)
4 Earl Grey Tea bags (or about 4 tsp loose tea leaves)
250ml (1 cup) milk
375g (2 1/2 cups) self-raising flour
155g (3/4 cup) caster sugar
1 tbsp poppy seeds
125g (1 stick) butter, melted
2 eggs, lightly whisked
To glaze or serve: marmalade or apricot jam
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-hole muffin/cupcake tin with liners or folded squares of baking paper. Warm the milk until it is nearly boiling in a small saucepan, then add tea bags set aside to infuse and cool. Place sifted flour, caster sugar and poppy seeds in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Add milk mixture, butter and eggs and use a whisk to gently combine until smooth. Spoon mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 25 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean. Try your best not to over-bake them as it will dry them out.
Und hier gibt's das Rezept von Raspberri Cupcakes, übersetzt von mir: Earl Grey & Poppy Seed Muffins with Marmalade Glaze
Earl Grey und Mohn- Muffins mit Marmeladen-Glasur
4 Earl Grey Teebeutel, 250 ml Milch, 375 gr Mehl, 1 TL Backpulver (denn bei uns gibt's kein self-raising flour), 150 gr Zucker, 1 EL Mohn, 125 gr (halbe Packung) Butter (geschmolzen), 2 Eier, 1 Prise Salz, Marmelade für die Glasur
Ofen auf 180°C vorheizen und 12 Muffinförmchen vorbereiten. Die Milch erhitzen und die Teebeutel darin ziehen lassen, bis das Ganze wieder relativ kalt ist. Mehl, Backpulver, Zucker, Salz und Mohn mischen, dann die Teemilch, zerlassene Butter und Eier einrühren, so dass alles gerade verbunden ist. In die Förmchen füllen und ca. 20 – 25 Minuten backen. Die Marmelade erhitzen bis sie flüssig ist und auf die Muffins pinseln. Lecker!

History of Las Vegas
Historisk oversikt til den amerikanske byen Las Vegas, kjent for sine casinoer og hoteller.

Why did I choose Las Vegas as my theme?
My choice was Las Vegas because it is a big and popular city with lots of casinos and hotels.
It is also a popular city for movies; many great movies have been filmed in Las Vegas. These are the ones I know about: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Leaving Las Vegas and C.S.I. And that the whole city is built in the middle of a desert. Thats why my choice was Las Vegas, and here is the story of Las Vegas from early 1700s to the present time.
Spanish traders en route to Los Angeles along the Spanish Trail in the early 1700s sought a route that would pass through the then unexplored Las Vegas Valley. At the time, the Spaniards referred to the route through the valley as "jornada de muerte," journey of death. A young scout named Rafael Rivera was the first person of European ancestry to look upon the valley. His discovery of a valley with abundant wild grasses growing and a plentiful water supply reduced the journey by several days. The valley was named Las Vegas, Spanish for "The Meadows."
It was not until famed explorer Captain John Fremont wrote of Las Vegas in 1844, that anyone other than Spanish explorers and missionaries and the indigenous Indian population, knew of the valley.
In 1855, Brigham Young assigned 30 Mormon missionaries to build a fort in the Las Vegas valley. The fort constituted the first non-Indian settlement in the region.
Their primary purpose was to teach the Paiute Indians farming techniques. The Paiutes rejected the teachings and occasionally raided the fort until it was abandoned in 1857.
The discovery of minerals, including precious metals, lead to the beginning of the mining industry in the late 19th century. The State Land Act of 1885 offered sections of land at $1.25 per acre. Farmers moved in and agriculture became the dominant industry for the next 20 years.
The completion of the main railway, linking Southern California with Salt Lake City in 1905, established Las Vegas as a railroad town. The availability of water made Las Vegas an ideal refuelling point and rest stop. The railroad was the principal industry in Las Vegas for the next 25 years.
Las Vegas was founded as a city on May 15, 1905, when 110 acres of land situated between Stewart Avenue on the north, Garces Avenue to the south, Main Street to the west, and 5th Street (Las Vegas Boulevard) to the east, were auctioned off.
The city was governed as part of Lincoln County until 1909 when it became the county seat for the newly established Clark County.
Las Vegas became an incorporated city and adopted its first charter on March 16, 1911. At the time of incorporation, the city encompassed 19.18 square miles, and had approximately 800 inhabitants, less than 1 percent of the states total population. Clark County had a population at the time of 3,321.
By 1930, Las Vegas had grown to a population of 5,165. In 1931, three events occurred that would forever change the face of Nevada and the city of Las Vegas.
On March 19, 1931 gambling was legalized in the State of Nevada. One month later, the city issued six gambling licenses.
Divorce laws were liberalized in the State of Nevada, making residency easier to attain. A "quickie" divorce could be attained after six weeks of residency. These short-term residents stayed at "dude ranches" which were the forerunners of the sprawling Strip hotels.
Beginning in 1931, the construction of Hoover Dam brought an influx of construction workers which started a population boom and gave the Valleys economy, which was in the grips of the Great Depression, a needed boost.
By 1940 Las Vegas' population had grown to 8,422. The outbreak of World War II brought the defense industry to the valley. The isolated location, along with plentiful water and inexpensive energy, made Las Vegas an ideal site for military and defense related industries. The site for Nellis Air Force Base was located in the northeast, and the Basic Management Complex, providers of raw materials, was located in the south-eastern suburb of Henderson. The defense industry continues to employ a significant number of valley residents.
Following World War II, lavishly decorated resort hotels and gambling casinos offering top-name entertainment came into existence. Tourism and entertainment took over as the largest employer in the valley.
In 1956, the city of Las Vegas annexed one square mile of land, its first such addition since incorporation 45 years earlier.
By 1960, Las Vegas encompassed 25 square miles and had a population of 64,405. Las Vegas had more than 22 percent of Nevadas total population on less than .02 percent of the State's land. At the same time, Clark County had a population of 127,016. During the 1960s, a phenomenon lead by Howard Hughes, occurred in Las Vegas. Corporations were building and/or buying hotel/casino properties. They had the capital necessary and the profitability made entrance into the casino industry extremely attractive. Gambling had become "gaming" and was starting the transition into legitimate business.
Throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, corporations continued to invest in the hotel/casino industry. Gaming had become a legitimate business and some properties had stock traded on the market. Las Vegas economy remained strong and the population increased to 164,674 by 1980. Clark County, meanwhile, had grown to a population of 463,087.
Starting in the mid 1980s, a period of unprecedented growth began. Annual population increases averaging nearly 7 percent caused the city's population to almost double between 1985 and 1995, increasing from 186,380 to 368,360 during that time, a 97.6 percent increase. That is equivalent to building a city larger than Reno in 10 years! At the same time, Clark Countys population increased from 562,280 to 1,036,180, an increase of 84.3 percent.
Contributing to the population growth was a 4 percent annual increase in hotel rooms and a 9.18 percent annual increase in jobs from 1990 through 1994.
And the growth continues still. The latest population prediction in the Las Vegas Valley is 2 million people by 2005.
This was my text about Las Vegas, I have not written everything by my self, some texts have I copied from Internet and rewritten. I now hope you know a little bit more about Las Vegas.

Prayer for the Sick: Receive HealingWhen we offer healing prayer on someone's behalf, it is important in every case to be led by the Spirit of God. The following article explores seven of the ways to look at healing as taught in the Scriptures and how to receive healing:
Seven Ways to Receive Divine Healing By Val Waldeck
There are many means and methods of ministering healing to the sick and suffering so it is important to be led always by the Spirit of God. Here are seven ways to receiving healing as taught in the Scriptures: 1. Prayer. James 5:13,16 says if anyone is afflicted, let him pray. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous person is very powerful. It is good to seek the Lord first before turning to other means for help. Prayer accompanied by fasting is very powerful. 2. Laying on of hands. Scripture encourages the laying on of hands. The Bible says every believer has the "Life of God" in him or her and we may impart healing to others by this means. The quickening, life-giving power of God may be transmitted when hands are laid on the sick. Jesus felt "virtue" go out of Him when a little woman touched the hem of His garment. (Mark 5:29,30). Consider Hebrews 6:2, Mark 16:18, Mark 6:5, Luke 4:40, Luke 13:13, Acts 5:28. 3. Anointing with Oil. This method is explained in James 5:13-16. It is the duty of the sick to call for the Elders to anoint them with oil and it is the duty of the Elders to obey this scriptural injunction. Compare Mark 6:13. Oil in the scriptures is always symbolical of the Holy Spirit and clearly signifies the work of the Spirit in healing. (Acts 10:38). 4. A Point of Contact. Mention is made in Acts 19:11,12 of special miracles being wrought by Paul through the use of handkerchiefs and other items of clothing. God often uses simple means to inspire faith for healing. In one instance Peter's shadow was the point of contact – Acts 5:15. The woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment received healing. The dead man who touched Elisha's bones sprung back to life (2 Kings 13:14,20,21). The Communion Service is yet another example – 1 Corinthians 11:29-32. 5. The Written Word (the Bible). There is power of the Word of God, both written and spoken. It is a supernatural book with a supernatural anointing and when we speak His Word in faith mighty things happen. Compare Psalm 107:20, Jhn 6:63, Jeremiah 1:12, 1 Kings 8:56, Mathew 21:33m Mark 11:22-24. 6. Praise. The importance of praise can never be over-stressed. "God inhabits the praises of His people" (Psalm 22:3). This is a most powerful way of expressing your faith and trust in His Written Word and His Faithful Character. Praise the Lord for your healing, purchased two thousand years ago on Calvary. Appropriate the accomplished work and receive your healing. 7. Confess Your Healing. We must learn to take God at His Word. In the same way we "confess" our salvation and faith follows according to Romans 10:9, so the truth of God's Holy Word works in us as we believe and confess it. Our confession, of course, must be subject to the sovereign Will of God for our lives. Faith to confess only comes when we know what God's Will is.

Happy Friday huns! I wanted to update you on my current beauty regime. My skin can get really dry with an oily T-zone (nightmare) along with being super sensitive so i have to be careful at what i put on my face. Currently im using Micellar water as my cleanser day & night – i can only use the green one though as they also do a pink version. I genuinely have no idea why or even of the ingredients are different! Next up is for day time and three times a week i use Nip & Fab Glycolic cleansing pads which also very slightly exfoliates your skin. I also use the night time version 3 nights a week too & have noticed such a difference in the texture of my skin. I think everybody already knows how amazing the Kiehls products are including the midnight recovery which i use a couple of nights week otherwise my skin gets congested! I first saw the rose water on Kim Kardashian's app & social media & thought if it's good enough for the Kardashians right?! I spray it after applying my make up & it really sets it for the day then i use it a couple of nights a week before i go to bed! It's so light and fresh, this bottle has lasted me ages too! COCONUT OIL – last but certainly not …. I mean this basically says it all. I apply coconut oil EVERYWHERE. It really is life you guys… Anyway i have just gone through my night time routine & im clocking off.. any skin tips please let me know below i would be most greatful xoxo

Stickiness and static electricity can clog seed distribution tubes on large central-fill planters. "Some seed coatings absorb moisture, and humid days make seeds sticky," says Dan Anderson, mechanic and Farm Journal columnist. "That's why we use talc."
When it's dry outside and seeds stick together from static electricity, graphite helps. Mixes of graphite and talc can take care of both issues.
Follow talc and graphite dosing instructions to avoid clouding seed sensors with dust. If they are covered they will read incorrectly, likely showing low population, Anderson adds. Dig behind the planter to double check.
Sometimes, too little or too much air pressure can clog seed distribution tubes on central-hopper planters.
"Air pressure settings aren't usually sensitive, but if seeds aren't flowing well through distribution hoses, changing the air pressure setting can help," Anderson says. "Bigger seeds take more air to move; smaller seeds take less."
The bigger the planter the harder it is to find the clog. The quickest way to unclog the tube is to shake it.
Once you get started again, keep an eye on planter speed—there are limitations beyond the speedometer. If you're planting 30,000 corn seeds per acre at 5.5 mph it means 13 to 15 seeds move past seed-tube sensors per second, Anderson explains after conducting a quick, on-farm test.
Seed monitors provide snapshots of the complex planting process. If you don't get out of the cab and get your hands dirty, population could be off.
"A tailwind can mess up the way a seed monitor reads. It'll show 2,000 to 5,000 plants per acre off but when you turn the other way it's fine," he adds. "If you've dug that's where you need to place your confidence."

[. . . I'm tempted to add "Batman!", but that would really show my age.]
Where on earth do such expressions come from? I can't answer that, but at least we can now sleuth out the evolution of the word mackerel itself, thanks to some crack detective work by Jim Gleick in his new book The Information (see the NYT review here). According to Robert Krulwich and Josh Kurz at NPR, the Oxford English Dictionary has identified no fewer than 31 names for the fish. And here they are (drum roll please):
mackerel, macquerel, mackarell, makrall, macrill, mackril,macril, makarell, mackreel, makreill, maycril, maquerel, maccarel,mackrel, makrell, macrell, makral, mackerell, macrel, mackaral, makerell, macquerell, mackrell, makrel, makerelle, makerel, macrelle, makyrelle, makcaral, mackarel, mackeril
How many cans is that? See the stack at right!
Turns out the word is traceable to the old French word "maquerel" and entered the English lexicon around 1066 when the Normans stormed across the channel and whomped the Brits in 1066. In hist study of the evolution of information Gleick notes that the OED listed only 19 different spellings for mackerel in 1989, whereas it has risen rapidly to 31 now.Why?
A major reason is that the internet has allowed the dusting off of all kinds of ancient documents, which have been scanned and distributed to the masses. Since there were no dictionaries back in the day (say, a thousand years ago, give or take ), people just spelled words any which way they wanted to. People who could read and write, that is, which was a small fraction of the populace in those benighted times. Hence the irrational exuberance of spellings of mackerel.
Where will it all end? Below is Krulwich and Kurz's prediction, tongue-in-cheek one presumes, for the future of mackerel. They were referring mainly to the spelling, but it's an interesting (perhaps subliminal) comment on what physical form the fish may take in the future as well. Perish the thought.

Logging on to beat the bullies
Alison Ballantyne, who supports professionals who work with children and young people with behaviour issues explains how adopting a web-based multi-agency approach is helping the London Borough of Bexley to tackle bullying within its schools.
Tackling the problem of bullying is fast becoming an issue for many schools and local authorities (LA) across England. The concern has always been there, but for many bullying has been a taboo subject, something not to be admitted for fear of being branded as having a 'bullying problem'.
However with the Government's newly introduced 'Safe to Learn' policy and the Department of Children, Schools and Families making it clear that, "no form of bullying should be tolerated" (1), bullying is something the Government is also putting high on its agenda.
The London Borough of Bexley has always endeavoured to create a safe learning environment for its schools' pupils and has kept anti-bullying measures in place to try and combat the problem.
A recent report from the Education and Skills Select Committee recommended that, "all local authorities, in partnership with schools (should) develop a robust system for the collation, evaluation and reporting of bullying for the purpose of effectively improving the tackling and management of (the) issue across all schools in their area." (2)
In response, the Bexley Local Authority decided to seek an alternative method to tackling bullying and racism in schools - one that would meet the recommendations and messages from the Government as well as the requirements of our partner agencies and schools.
Changing tactics for a coordinated approach
The approach Bexley chose was to deploy web-based anti-bullying software (3), which allows staff to report bullying incidents securely over the Internet into a central database, which is managed and monitored by Bexley. This web-based approach allows our schools to monitor bullying and racism incidents in real-time, providing effective support for all pupils.
Two Bexley services were the driving force behind the proposal to launch this new initiative.
The first - the Bexley Anti-Bullying Project, a team which plays an important role within the Council in offering support and advice to victims of bullying, their parents and schools, required a user-friendly and efficient system which reduced the amount of paper work involved with traditional reporting. The Project also looked for a system, which would aid head teachers in completing their self-evaluation forms, and one which would identify by-standers, as they were often key players in anti-bullying activities.
The second - Knowledge Management, previously carried out the reporting and recording of instances of bullying within schools across Bexley. We were proud of the system but there were a couple of flaws. The system was paper-based, therefore more labour-intensive, and it relied on someone at the school remembering to collect the forms and send them to the Council.
We wanted an electronic system that was accessible to anyone with computer access to the school's central system, automatically collated the information, and most crucially was web-based and able to be tailored to our forms and interrogated to get the strategic information we need.
Our overall aim was to create less bureaucracy for schools with a ready-to-use solution that would give us a more coordinated and proactive approach.
Reaping the benefits
As well as allowing Bexley to fulfil mandatory recording of racial incidents the software enables us to monitor and target other forms of harassment within schools. It gives teaching staff and LA officials a greater understanding of issues related to racism and bullying, and helps us effectively track and identify bullying hotspots and repeat offenders. The program also flags up patterns in behaviour, enabling us to proactively address instances of bullying and racism and draw up effective policies to tackle the cause.
Giving staff across the LA and schools access to the same central database facilitates an improved exchange of information, and a consistent method of reporting. This helps the LA identify the more successful anti-bullying initiatives in place; we can then liaise with and offer advice to other schools within the Borough.
In addition to recording details of the perpetrator, the software allows details of the by-standers and their involvement in bullying incidents to be recorded, enabling members of staff to identify all parties directly and indirectly involved in the bullying.
The new system also enables Bexley to incorporate aspects of the former reporting system into the new tool, allowing us to continue to offer a checklist to staff on how to deal with harassment incidents, whilst offering a system, which automatically collates data and is able to be easily interrogated by staff.
Importantly this solution allows LAs to get feedback from the pupils themselves. The Office of Children's Commissioner has stated: "schools should conduct an annual survey of children and young people's experiences of bullying…a range of reporting options for children experiencing bullying needs to be made available."
The web-based nature of the system means additional tools can easily be added on, such as an on-line survey module that allows the LA to measure the attitude and feelings of young people who have experienced or witnessed bullying in school. This gives pupils themselves a chance to comment on the effectiveness of the anti-bullying policies in place, their opinions can then be viewed and acted upon by school management and LA.
Changing mindsets for a better future
I believe it's time to wipe away the stigma attached to admitting to a problem of bullying in schools. Rather than seeing the reporting of bullying as a negative thing schools need to understand that reporting and recording these incidents demonstrates their clear commitment to stamping out bullying, and in-fact is a vital step towards creating a safe environment for pupils to learn in – and for teachers to teach in.
A lot of bullying also goes on outside of the school gates, and as such Bexley plan to roll out the system to early learning and pre-school organisations and youth centres in the area so that children of all ages can benefit from it.
All youngsters and staff in schools have the right and expectation to be free of harassment and bullying wherever they may be. Bexley Council recognises this right and we believe that embracing new ways of monitoring and tackling the issues will help us further achieve that objective and beat the bullies.

It won't have escaped anyone's attention that we are going through something of a mini heatwave here in Britain. How mini it is and how much of a heatwave remains to be seen, but the sudden volte face in climate to plunge the country into a Southern Mediterranean cauldron allows for the attention to be turned to a pastime generally not considered in these climes – al fresco dining.
We're talking picnics – not the ones with cocktail sausages, paper plates and lashings of lemonade – but grown up ones. Al fresco dining to capture the essence of the outdoors, the seasons and the senses. The set up which frames the perfect view, which takes in the dipping sun, which harnesses the light breeze and makes us feel like we are on holiday. The picnic which tastes like we are somewhere else.
The food that makes up a picnic should be as evocative as the setting one creates, and gathering the ingredients to replicate a perfect slice of Italy is a labour of love in itself.
A selection of salumi, artisan cheeses and marinated vegetables to get the taste buds working overtime, accompanied by a cold, dry, zingy bottle of Prosecco to pull the different textures and taste sensations together. Salami with fennel, sweet and delicate Prosciutto Veneto Berico-Euganeo DOP, mortadella and San Daniele. A chunk of Pecorino and another of Parmigiano Reggiano along with some fresh buffalo mozzarella, olives, marinated artichokes and sun dried tomatoes.
A hearty Tuscan salad based on bread toasted into large croutons, tomatoes and garlic – also add onions, anchovies, capers, peppers and basil. The flavours are bold and unique but at the same time fresh and summery, delivering a veritable punch to this part of your perfectly prepared picnic.
Mixed Herb Frittata:
Egg-based dishes are always a light touch and deliver another level of texture to a well-rounded picnic. This frittata can be made the night before and kept well-chilled, allowing the flavours of the mixed herbs – use marjoram, thyme, basil and oregano – to infuse together and deliver a delightful savoury dish to accompany the feast.
No picnic would be complete without a beautiful selection of fresh summer fruit – refreshing watermelon, strawberries and cherries paired with freshly baked lemon pine nut biscotti and a large dollop of smooth vanilla ice cream. The perfect palate cleanser.
An al fresco dining moment is never complete without a bottle of something which characterises the countryside, the rolling hills, the meticulously crafted vines, the warming sun and the cooling breeze, the snaking valleys and the distant sea. Wedge a bottle or two of Pieropan's Soave Classico into your stylish picnic basket. The liveliest and most youthful of the Pieropan stable of tantalising wines, its freshness and versatility comes from a blend of mostly Garganega with a slice of Trebbiano di Soave. The result a beautifully balanced, straw yellow wine with hints of green, racy acidity with good depth of fruit and length. A delicate nose of almond blossoms and marzipan to ensure your dining experience is a wholehearted success.« Back to blog

case study
Gladstone Shops of the St. Paul and Duluth R.R.
A ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) analysis of an historic railroad roundhouse (ca. 1897) and associated shops was conducted during the summer of 2012. The survey was undertaken during Phase 1A of the development of Gladstone Savanna Neighborhood Preserve and Gloster Park. This site is located at the southwest corner of Frost Avenue and English Street in Maplewood, Minnesota. The planned park integrates the site's railroad history, soil remediation, stormwater management, natural resources, and passive and active (playground) recreation. The park master plan may be viewed here (gladstone master plan).
The primary objective of the investigation was to assess the integrity of the buried archaeological resources prior to potential impacts to the site associated with remediation of contaminated soils and grading.
LiDAR point cloud data were processed using LAStools by Martin Isenburg.

Rosa Willock - Master of Bioentrepreneurship student from UK
Programme: Master of Bioentrepreneurship
From: UK
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Blog: rosawillock
Contact me in: English
Of all of the programs similar to the Masters Program in Bioentrepreneurship, [KI] offers the most opportunities to learn from real life.
Rosa came to Karolinska Institutet from Manchester, England. Despite being from one of the worlds football meccas, she isn't the biggest football fan, but she is a big believer in the Bioentrepreneurship Programme here at KI. In her student blog, Rosa documents her path from biochemistry into business. A journey that she has credited with taking her from the analytical mindset of the lab and introducing her to the concepts of innovation and entrepreneurship.
So far Rosa has been impressed by the Bioentrepreneurship Programmes emphasis on increasing student employability through networking opportunities, while at the same time teaching important skills such as team work and effective communication. Outside of class, her best memory has been exploring cabin life in the Swedish woods with her classmates. An evening of dinner, traditional Swedish sauna and freezing midnight dip in the lake left her feeling that:
The best thing about living in Stockholm is that you [can] spend the night at a beautiful lakeside cabin without even leaving the city.

Sam Plank was everything local radio stood for and judging by the crowds that lined the streets to say goodbye, he got it spot on. Glyn worked as a Presenter with Sam in the good old days of Radio Stoke and I had the privilege of teaming up with him when I joined in the late 90's. Never have I met a man who cared more passionately about the area and the people he served, he was their voice and more importantly their ear. He had a big heart, a wicked sense of humour and a wonderful ability for fun and he will be sorely missed by those who knew and loved him.

I'd been roleplaying for a while, but got caught up in playing live horror games since the early 2000s, then started helping out crew the occasional one, and slowly edged into helping out, making props, crewing, rigging, writing characters, then running games with various groups. I enjoy the process of writing characters and trying to get inside their heads, fitting them to players to give them something to get their teeth into and trying to rope in historical bits and bobs – and tend to draw a lot of
influence from a mixture of Lovecraft and modern horror. In my other life I work with computers so I've been working with technical bits for some of Room 13's experimental games, there's nothing like showing another ref how to press a key on a keyboard and generate screaming somewhere else in a house 🙂

My introduction to roleplaying didn't come from any dice rolling shenanigans. I was brought up on the wonders of video games and poor pixel quality. Pokémon, The Elder Scrolls and Dragon Age are just a drop in the ocean of my childhood, setting me up to be as invested in creativity and storytelling as I possibly could. Arriving at university in 2013, I checked out the Roleplaying Society. I've never looked back.It wouldn't be until my second year that I became involved in LARP. I'd crewed for my first event in April of 2014 with AEON Horror, and I should've known then that I'd been caught. In my many years of theatre, improv always held a special place in my heart. It's no wonder I clicked so well with LARPing.
Compared to others, I'm still very new to this reffing malarkey, but like that's gonna stop me.

I've not been a ref long but I can certainly count myself a cog in the machine behind the scenes. Lover of fantasy and creator of horrors I've been making props, costumes and ideas since 2009. I like to add a different perspective to ideas and challenge what is possible to do in a horror larp. Mainly I handle the physical and make props and monsters for people to play with; lovely monsters who only want to be your friend. Creator extraordinaire, if you want it I can make it.

I've always been an avid gamer from when I was young (predominantly video games), but didn't get into LARP gaming until my early twenties.
Given it turns out I'm not all that great at playing characters that don't really fit with the type of person I am, I've found I much prefer being a ref.
I mainly work best looking through the logistics of the different ways an event could go given the scenario and setting, and throwing in regular "But what if the players did [Insert crazy idea here]" suggestions, to refine the game play and possible outcomes it may bring!

Running before I could walk, well stumbling blindly anyway, I was a Ref long before I was a player. Back in the halcyon days of '99 I was fumbling with gateway tabletop games until finally upping the dose and trying LARP. Since then I've been attending national systems like Empire and Lorien Trust as well as running my own LARP system here in Lancaster, Obsidian Arcana. I'm the sideways thinker, a great fan of the bait and switch. I guess that I'm a storyteller really, that's what makes me do it.
That and the tortured screams of my player base.
JenniferPosted: April 26, 1984 by luvlymish in Ref Profile
I'm an amazing werewolf when doing an impression of my kitty cat, some of the other refs would rather I wrote that I have a childlike appreciation of the imagination but they're boring. Thanks to my sister I feel like I've been reffing most of my life, managing her expectations in our childhood games and eventually being inspired to ref after finding imaginary wolves could keep her out of my bedroom as a small child. In 2011 I helped devise the Room Thirteen system. My idea of making everyone play the perfect baking scenario for the perfect 1950s housewife is what keeps me reffing until they let me do it. Also I like the idea of being able to win all the time which is what makes reffing better than playing but I especially enjoy players who challenge me on this one.
MishPosted: January 6, 1982 by luvlymish in Ref Profile
I grew up with a younger sister which meant I made up the games. I never really stopped. I've been reffing horror games since 2003 and sometimes I even get to play them. I really like things inspired by Lovecraft's mythos and I aim to create an atmosphere rather than a story. In 2011 I helped to form Room 13 and I've been enjoying collaborating on games ever since. I like to try and make each game a bit different, to see what we can do within the genre of Horror LARP. Got an idea? Come and talk to me – lets see if we can make it work.

Google Shopping is taking off like a rocket ship.
Consumers love the visually based Product Listing Ads, especially on mobile. Retailers are also taking note, spent big on the channel in 2015.
That spending paid off: Research showed that Google Shopping Product Listing Ads (PLAs) drove 15% of retailers' sitewide revenue during Holiday 2015, up from 9.6% in 2014.
It's safe to say that competition in Google Shopping is sure to continue heating up — especially now that Google Shopping ads dominate the right-hand side of the desktop SERP (pictured):
So the time is now for Google Shopping users to ensure their budgets are well-spent by optimizing their product landing pages for this fast-growing channel. This post explains how.
Know Thy Audience
First, let's take a step back. Before you can optimize landing pages for Google Shopping, you must first understand the audience that's using the channel.
The shoppers who are coming to your site from Google Shopping PLAs are different from users who find you through text ads or display ads. These consumers are:
- All about price. Shoppers who land on your site after clicking on a PLA typically aren't there because of a clever social media campaign you ran last month or your most recent email newsletter. They are there because you offered a product they wanted at a compelling price.
- Not loyalty shoppers. PLA shoppers aren't especially loyal to your company or its mission. A strong brand can be a differentiator when a customer is deciding between multiple offers or products. But if they only had eyes for you, these shoppers would have just gone to your site directly from the outset.
- High(er) intent. Now for some good news: PLAs deliver a more qualified click. Visitors who arrive at your digital doorstep after clicking a PLA are almost always searching for a particular product. This indicates a higher level of purchase intent than other types of traffic (and makes optimizing for the channel even more pressing).
So, How Should You Optimize?
Now that we have our audience pinned down, we can start to optimize the path to purchase from PLAs. Keep in mind that certain elements of PLA landing pages are tightly regulated by Google — i.e., landing pages must include the product, image, and current price.
Once you've covered those bases, it's time to have some fun. Here are five big things to keep in mind when optimizing your pages:
1. When it comes to PLAs, be smart about pop-ups and interstitials.
Pop-ups on landing pages can generate new contacts. But marketers should be extremely judicious about how they employ this tool when it comes to PLA traffic.
Remember, these shoppers came to your site for a product you advertised. Let them get to know you before asking them to do anything other than conclude their search journey with a checkout. If you absolutely MUST use pop-ups, stick to promotions and discounts (more on that in a second). However, don't be afraid to offer shoppers options. That's because …
2. You should always try to educate PLA shoppers.
Instead of distracting a PLA shopper with potentially annoying pop-ups, keep the focus on your catalog by prominently showcasing other items that would pair well with the product that brought him or her to your site. This can raise your AOV and increase your revenue.
Offer suggestions or other items that shoppers also looked at or loved. You'd be surprised at how many retailers let the interaction with a prospective customer stop the moment he or she lands on a product.
Camera retailer Ritz Camera does a great job with this. Its site's product pages let shoppers easily add accessories to their cart with just a few clicks using the "Our Pros Also Recommend" column on the right-hand side:
3. Be sure to let shoppers know about relevant promotions right off the bat.
When a shopper lands on your page, immediately make her aware of any promotions, including free shipping, price reductions, and first-time customer offers. You can do this with a pop-up, but eye-catching sidebar ads and banner texts that keep the primary focus on the product are better.
Consumers clicking on PLAs are price-driven, so letting them know they can save a little money could be just the push you need to get them over the hurdle to purchase or motivate them to stick around.
Here's an excellent example from Competitive Cyclist. This product page for a set of bicycle pedals keeps the focus on the item, while also touting free shipping, 100% guaranteed returns, and a 20% March discount:
4. Be awesome on mobile.
Sidecar found that within Google Shopping, revenue from mobile devices during the 2015 holiday season jumped 188% year-over-year, and orders on mobile devices grew 245% during this period. When it comes to Google Shopping ads, a passable mobile experience just won't cut it.
Your mobile site needs to be killer and you need to keep it killer to meet evolving best practices for mobile UX.
Jeweler retailer David Yurman understands this, and lets shoppers select the color of gemstone they want in their iconic bracelets by simply tapping on a color when shopping on a smartphone:
Start by exploring Google's Guide for Mobile Friendly Websites. And with any redesign, remember …
5. Shoppers shouldn't need a map to navigate your site.
Tie all of the other optimization tactics we've discussed into a shopping experience that is at once coherent and cohesive. Shoppers who find your site via Google Shopping ads can be fickle and less tolerant than brand devotees, so make sure your site is immediately and intuitively navigable.
On that same note, maintain consistent branding. Shoppers who don't know and trust your brand will be less comfortable buying from a site that looks cobbled together. And since clicking on your PLA might be a shopper's first impression of your brand, put your best foot forward — even if the click doesn't result in a sale, the shopper will recall you favorably next time.
Footwear and clothing retailer Steve Madden has mastered this discipline. Its product pages retain the clean look and branding of the site overall, and also present the shopper with various routes to explore.
These days, a static landing page that doesn't scare shoppers away is just the table stakes for e-commerce success. The number of inbound traffic channels has ballooned, and consumers have different expectations for each one.
So e-commerce marketers must remember that Google Shopping is a unique channel, and treat it accordingly. E-commerce success is increasingly driven by personalization and capitalizing on "micro-moments" (to borrow a great term from Google) — like clicking on a Product Listing Ad.
And while optimizing every page for every referral source is, perhaps, a lofty goal, these tips should cover you for Google Shopping.

Rohde & Schwarz Shows Low-Power UHF/VHF Transmitter Platform
Rohde & Schwarz presented an optimized UHF/VHF transmitter platform for the low-power range at IBC2007.
The platform consists of the R&S SLx8000 transmitter family and the associated R&S XLx8000 transposers and gap fillers, which make it possible to flexibly close smaller coverage gaps.
R&S SLx8000 transmitters support the DAB/T DMB, DVB-T/-H, and ATSC standards as well as virtually all analog TV standards. The R&S XLx transposers and gap fillers can also handle the MediaFLOTM and DTMB standards.
The transmitters for the UHF and VHF frequency ranges cover the power ranges up to 100 W DVB-T/-H, 160 W ATSC, 250 W ATV, and 300 W DAB.
Options include an integrated GPS module, an internal DVB-T receiver for retransmitter or monitoring applications, and an SNMP agent or parallel interface as remote control interface. A digital algorithm will soon be available for the gap filler for suppressing echoes. This algorithm will allow operation in single-frequency networks.

Sunday reading for November 24, 2013:
1. John Maxwell over at www.johnmaxwell.com has a great infographic up highlighting what he describes as "the five levels of leadership". I'm down at level 2 of 5 right now, but hope to one day climb higher. What level of leadership are you at? How can you get better? Check out the full post here and give it some thought.
2. Change.org President & COO Jennifer Dulski has a great post up on Linkedin touching on the dos and don't of how to get promoted. I think the most powerful part of the piece is the way that Dulski articulates the non-linear relationship between an official promotion and skill development. Many people believe that they need a formal promotion to get opportunities. In point of fact, however, when you are ready for the next level of responsibility there are multiple ways to start performing at that level. Learn how to seize the moment by reading the full article here.
3. I've talked before about the importance of networking. As such, I was very much engaged by a recent Fast Company piece wherein author Lydia Dishman conducts an interview with one of the greatest networkers around today – business innovator and author Nilofer Merchant. Learn from the best by reading the full thing here.
4. Iconic business journalist Maria Bartiromo is leaving CNBC to join the Fox Business Network after spending more than two decades with the organization. It's being reported that one of the reasons Bartiromo ended her long-term relationship with the network was a sense that she had run out of her career opportunities there. You can read the full story here. I'm sharing it because I think it's a great example of why it's important to never take your star performers for granted. No matter how long a top talent has been with you, it's important to constantly keep them engaged with new development opportunities. If you don't, there's often someone else right around the corner that will.
As always, please share your thoughts in the comments section below.

I got my St. Patrick's kicks in a little early this year, choosing to make bad decisions on a Saturday rather than a Tuesday. Does that make it a good decision? Call it a wash. Anyway, my weekend was great, aside from the parts where I felt like dying. The other parts were too much fun, and I would do those parts again (which pretty much means I'll do the "feel like dying" parts again, too).
The actual St. Patrick's day was going to be low-key, but ended up pretty bizarre. First of all, there were drunk nuns before noon. Always entertaining. Then there was a phone call from my mom, letting me know my dad was in the hospital because of a work accident (found a chlorine gas leak with his face), but he didn't want me to come home because I should "stay there and make money." I never listen to my dad; he never makes sense. So instead, I spent about two and a half hours in the ICU, watching my pops take in oxygen and watch NCIS. It was exactly like hanging out with my dad at home, except with a few extra tubes and wires.
Around seven, the doctor checked dad's O2 levels and sent us all home, telling him not to smoke for a few days because it would irritate the acid in his lungs. The acid in his lungs. I take that to mean "don't smoke because IT WILL MAKE YOU BLOW UP," and dad takes it to mean "Gonna smoke anyway, because I like a challenge." And he will, and he'll be fine, because despite what he does to himself, he's sort of indestructible. I'm not sure how he even has lungs anymore, but according to the doctor and some X-rays, they are just fine. My dad: surviving things he shouldn't for half a century.
And that's how I ended my St. Patrick's day: watching my dad watch NCIS (at home this time) and thinking not about my Irish ancestors, but my Norwegian ones, and wondering if I might inherit some of their luck. And their ridiculously hearty lungs.

I am unfamiliar with qshell as well. But, if you are looking for a programmatic way to clean up the IFS, you might want to check out this site.
I have downloaded the code and modified per our needs and it works well.
You need to learn to read manuals. Taking a powerful command from somewhere on the internet that deletes files that aren't yours and that you might have no information about, and running it on a system when you don't know how the command works is reasonable grounds for dismissal.
The Qshell manual tells you what the find utility does, how to write it and what to do about the semi-colon.

A great Islay single malt from an unnamed distillery. The Ileach always scores well with the critics, this cask strength edition was awarded a mindblowingly high 97 points by Jim Murray in his Whisky Bible.
The Story of the Vintage Malt Whisky Co.
The Vintage Malt Whisky Co. was founded in 1992 by Brian Crook, an honours graduate in Food Science with twenty years experience in the malt whisky industry, latterly as Export Director for one of Scotland's principal distillers. The aim was to produce a range of malt whiskies from Scotland's finest distilleries and to make them available to independent wine and spirit importers throughout the world.
One hundred years ago there were over one hundred and twenty malt whisky distilleries throughout Scotland, independently owned and producing malts of rare character from the Highlands, Islands and Lowlands. Today probably only seventy or eighty still produce malt whisky on a regular basis, and of these, only a handful are owned by family companies. The vast majority of malts available from Scotland today are produced by multi-national companies, so the opportunity for family companies worldwide to deal with small, independent scotch whisky distillers has virtually gone. The Vintage Malt Whisky Co. was formed to fill this gap.
For centuries the stormy weather of the Atlantic Ocean has not only shaped the character of the people of islay but also the character of their world famous whiskies. In many ways this fine malt mirrors the character of the islay people - strong yet gentle, warm yet mellow but with a maturity beyond its years. Robustly peaty, with that unmistakable breath of the seashore.
