1. Affordable organising: Follow the traditional hut site model. What we are calling the traditional hut site model is actually a modernised version. The traditional model is that hutters pay ground rent to a landowner (which could be an individual or a public body or community organisation). We are recommending that groups of hutters in a hut site then form a Hutters' Trust (or similar body) to manage the site. This Trust can be responsible for sharing costs and work to make the site viable for all. As a constitituted group, this Trust may also have more access to funding to help with these costs.
2. Affordable rents: Practice fair hutting. We have created a Voluntary Code of Conduct between Hutters and Landowners. It sets out points to form the basis of a fair tenancy agreement between hutter and landowner.
3. Buying land: Individuals getting together to share the costs. With land prices as they are, owning land is not necessarily a viable option for an individual for affordable hutting. However, one of the ways it may become possible is if a group of people get together to share the cost of land purchase and site development. It is worth keeping an eye on property auctions and an ear to the grapevine to find out when more affordable parcels of land become available. The Thousand Huts Facebook group is another good way of hearing what is available. It may also be worth looking at possible legal structures for this type of group – following the model of housing co-operatives, for example, may be useful.
4. Buying land: Community groups purchasing a site. In recent years there has been a rise in support for community ownership of assets. You will find a wealth of experience of this within bodies like the Development Trusts Association or the Community Woodlands Association. It can be done, with lots of hard work!
5. Renting land: Find a friendly landowner. Landowners may sometimes get bad press, but you may be surprised by how many of them want to use their land for social benefit. Many are keen to get people back on their land and to feel that they are sharing what they have. We have been approached by many landowners who are interested in having a hut site on their land, and we plan to create a database of these opportunities. They all have different motivations – and though they will need to keep their business financially viable, many would like to see their land being used in a way that would increase the wellbeing of people in their area. It is well worth approaching a landowner to see what they would think of the possibility of a hut site on their land. If an affordable ground rent is set, with good conditions, as set out in the Voluntary Code of Conduct between Hutters and Landowners, renting ground from a supportive landlord could be an achievable way of accessing land. It should be remembered, too, that with farm incomes at a low, the ground rent from huts could provide a landowner with an attractive income stream and, as long as ground rents are set at a fair level for both parties, this economic benefit can also be used to persuade a landlord to allow huts on their land.
6. Affordable building: Two out of three. It is a great truism of building that you can only have two of the three qualities (quick, cheap and good) that you may wish from your build. So you could spend a lot of money on labour and materials and end up with a quick and good building, but it won't be cheap. You could spend lots of time sourcing reclaimed materials and working on your build yourself, and you may end up with a good building, but it won't be quick. Or you can build quickly and cheaply, but perhaps not end up with the best quality! A cheap building is possible, but it will cost you time and work.
7. Affordable building: Keep it basic! Of course you can also build something affordable by aiming for something very small and simple, using reclaimed materials. There is a huge amount of waste from the construction industry, and companies often have to pay to dispose of it and are only too happy if you can take unwanted materials off their hands. For example glaziers often have a stack of windows removed from other buildings and waiting to go in a skip. While some of these will be sub-standard, there will often be great opportunities to source good windows for free by this method. Last week I got a large double-glazed, toughened glass unit which would have cost me £200 if I had to order it. You have to spend a fair bit of time going round your local companies to see where the opportunities are, but once you have found your source it can be a great way of reducing your costs. However, you do need access to a van for this sort of salvage.
8. Sharing your hut. A really great way to keep hutting affordable would be for groups of friends to share a hut. That way the costs of the build and ground rent can be spread much further. If anyone is already doing this, or working on it as a possibility, we'd love to hear from you.
9. Subsidise an affordable hut on your site. If you are already part of a group running a hut site, perhaps your group might consider making a hut available at a subsidised rate to people who could not otherwise afford it. Or possibly making a partnership with a community organisation who might be able to give access to the hut for people they work with.
10. Build a smaller hut! Remember that 30m2 is the maximum size for a hut under the definition in Scottish Planning Policy. You will save a lot of money by simply building a much smaller hut.

Coworking Bonn More than alternative Workspace for Freelancers, Self-Employed and Start-Ups
WhyCoworking?Coworking offices are becoming more and more important for many people in different professions and offer a perfect alternative to home offices and the constant search for locations for small events or presentations. Coworking Bonn has created a space in the city for all those who want to work in a creative and professional atmosphere and take advantage of the healthy mix of concentrated, independent work and a creative, exchange-minded and international community.
Coworking Office
CommunityCoworking Bonn offers a great alternative to the home office for self-employed, freelancers, freelancers, authors, creative people and small startups. Unlike at home in the quiet closet, you will find a room where ideas can grow. Everyone has the opportunity to work for himself in a professional atmosphere - but if you need a creative impulse or a second opinion, you will always find the right contact person with the different coworkers. Joint customer projects are also the rule and not the exception.
Our Coworker
EquipmentMany freelancers and self-employed people who are looking for an alternative to the home office or impersonal office communities will be familiar with offers such as "bring your own desk". In Coworking Bonn, nobody has to bring their desk, but benefits from working in bright, fully equipped and clearly structured rooms and access to professional equipment. Who wants to present his idea convincingly can use beamer and screen, in the conference room and besides there is everything which is needed for possible customer meetings
Workstations and rooms
CentralMany roads lead to Coworking Bonn, because the offices are centrally located in Bonn's Poppelsdorf district. From different directions numerous buses drive to Space and almost stop at the front door. But you can also reach us by car from the motorway in 5 minutes. If you prefer to walk along the beautiful Poppelsdorfer Allee, you can reach the main station in 15 minutes. In between there are numerous cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and small but fine grocers.
How to find us
NetworkingThe increasingly important and much-praised concept of networking is happening virtually by itself in Coworking Bonn. At a café during the lunch break, new contacts are made, experiences are exchanged and sometimes new orders are obtained on the side. Those who work in Coworking Bonn have gathered people from the most diverse areas around them. The regular events such as the Friday Beer o' Clock, WordPress Meetup and many other pop-up events create space for even more exchange of experiences.
SustainabilityAt Coworking Bonn we try to pay attention to sustainability wherever possible. If you take a break at the coffee bar, you will find fair trade coffee there and if you plug your laptop charging cable into the socket, green electricity is automatically generated. Coworking Bonn is always striving to improve in this respect. We are proud to identify ourselves as an environmentally conscious co-working space and are therefore making every effort to communicate this message to the outside world.

Beijing, China. Given that Manmohan Singh has just a few months left in the current term and the next term appears uncertain, he has made up his mind to liberate himself from the puppet strings.
Soon after Rahul Gandhi finished his emotional speech in Rajasthan yesterday, an unusually angry Manmohan Singh, who is currently on a diplomatic visit to China, called a press meet in Beijing. Ridiculing the Nehru-Gandhi scion, MMS slammed Rahul Gandhi for his emotionally dramatic speech in a politically charged rally.
He termed it a "complete nonsense".
"I will tell you what is my opinion on Rahul's speech. And my opinion is – it is complete nonsense. He should be taped over his mouth and locked in Congress office. This is my personal opinion and party should think about it if it wants to win the elections," said Dr. Singh, venting out his long suppressed anger.
Faking News expected that the Prime Minister could stand up and walk out as Rahul Gandhi had done when he called the ordinance nonsense, but Dr. Singh stayed back to issue more statements.
"In one speech he talks about his mother, in next about his grandmother, next he will talk about Nehru, then about his forefathers, and by the end of the campaign he will talk about prehistoric human beings. What the hell is this? Are we planning to win an election by time traveling?" he wondered.
"Aise hazaaron bakwaas bhashan se achchi hai meri khamoshi, na jaane kitne raalies ki aabru rakhkhi," the Prime Minister added.
Political analysts say that with this daring act, Manmohan has tried to kill two birds with one stone. First, he took revenge for the humiliation unleashed by Rahul over the ordinance, and second, he passed a strong message to his Chinese counterpart to not take him lightly.
Sources in PMO revealed that Manmohan Singh even sent a video clip of his outbursts to US President Barack Obama, because he was in US when Rahul Gandhi came up with the anti-ordinance outburst.
Interestingly, White House sources confirmed the receipt of the clip even before the Prime Minister sent it. This has given rise to speculations if Obama is spying on Dr. Singh's phone, but PMO sources rejected such speculations.
Back home, Manmohan Singh is getting a lot of applause for the first time since the 1991 reforms, but Rahul Gandhi is in a state of shock. He is reported to have immediately called up his mother and asked her to order Manmohan Singh to attend his next three speeches without using any earplugs.


text: TV Canada to Produce Jim Henson Puppet Preschool Series 6:45 AM PST 2/4/2014 by Etan Vlessing FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME John Gooch/Keystone/Getty Images Jim Henson TVOKids, City Saskatchewan and Knowledge Network have ordered "Hi Opie!" From "Rugrats" writer Barbara Slade and co-producer marblemedia. TORONTO – Canadian kids' producer marblemedia has pacted with the Jim Henson Company to produce Hi Opie!, a live-action preschool series to be written and shot in Toronto. The project about a puppet, his friends and two kindergarten teachers was created by Barbara Slade (Angelina Ballerina, Rugrats) and is set to debut in late 2014 on TVO Kids, City Saskatchewan and Knowledge Network. TVOntario originally commissioned the series about a custom-built puppet from Jim Henson's Creature Shop. "Transitioning from preschool to kindergarten can be challenging to young children, and Hi Opie! can be a great tool for kids to learn how to negotiate through this new and exciting world," Lisa Henson, CEO of the Jim Henson Company, said in a statement Tuesday. Toronto-based marblemedia is now casting and writing 13 half-hours of Hi Opie!, with production to start in March. Distribution360, a division of marblemedia, will share TV, DVD and digital distribution with the Jim Henson Company, which will also oversee format rights, merchandising and licensing rights worldwide. "The Jim Henson Company's rich history of creating emotional, life-changing, memorable entertaining experiences for audiences, including myself, is unmatched — working together with their team to bring another puppet into the lives of kids is a dream come true for marblemedia," added Mark Bishop, co-CEO and executive producer at marblemedia, in his own statement. The project's series producer Larry Mirkin (Fraggle Rock) and showrunner Kate Barris (Max & Ruby, Captain Flamingo) are working on Hi Opie! with producer-director Lowell Dean of Lolofilm Productions Inc. The executive producers on the project are Bishop and Matt Hornburg for marblemedia and Henson and Halle Stanford for the Jim Henson Company.

Thanks to Obama, Oil Disaster Isn't Over for the Gulf
Posted by Dave Blount at January 27, 2011 4:57 PM
The BP oil spill has faded out of the news, but Comrade Obama's war on energy and employment continues:
Policy advisers for the American Petroleum Institute (API) warned that continued delays for deepwater drilling permits in the Gulf of Mexico would negatively impact deepwater Gulf development as well as Gulf region jobs and the nation's energy security.
…API policy advisors cited a Wood Mackenzie study released in December that found long-term Gulf of Mexico deepwater development could be seriously jeopardized if permitting timelines are extended. The study projects nearly one-third of U.S. deepwater production could be rendered uneconomic, which could significantly impact deepwater production, resulting in less energy production, less investment and less revenue to government.
Not to mention higher unemployment, higher gas prices, and more government debt.
"The potential harm is alarming," said Kyle Isakower, API's Vice President of Economic and Regulatory Policy. "We are talking about a transformation of the future relevance of deepwater Gulf development to U.S. domestic energy production — and a major threat to Gulf region jobs and to the nation's energy security. Based on the development impacts outlined by Wood Mackenzie, we believe as many as 125,000 jobs could be lost in 2015."
A slowdown in Gulf permitting has already cost jobs and will reduce Gulf oil and natural gas production and government revenue this year. Unless policymakers reverse course, 2011 could be the first year without a lease sale in the Gulf of Mexico since 1964.
Why should Big Government allow Americans to drill their own oil? The communist Chinese are still willing to lend us money to buy it from Muslims — for now.
On a tip from Zappatrust.

Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) plans to mentor several startups in India and Brazil this year.
The company already offers a mentor program in Israel, and Google may assist entrepreneurs from other nations in the not-too-distant future.
Read on to see which companies Google should consider mentoring next.
1. Insieve / Pugmarks.me
Bangalore, India-based Insieve Technologies has a context aware assistant app called Pugmarks. The app is so important that the company redirects Insieve.com to pugmarks.me.
Related Link: 5 European Startups That Google Should Fund
Before launching the company, Bharath Mohan (Insieve's co-founder and CEO) worked on text retrieval and ranking algorithms for Google. He was also involved with Google News.
That experience likely assisted him in the creation of Pugmarks, which promises to change the way users discover content.
2. grabHalo
Yet another startup that's based in Bangalore, grabHalo is a location-based messaging app. Unlike other apps, this one allows users to randomly meet new people by drawing a circle over a map. Users can instantly send a message to every grabHalo user that appears within the circle.
This might sound like a simple idea, but as far as social discovery apps are concerned, grabHalo could have what it takes to be the next big thing. The company has a second office in Mountain View, California, so it should be hard for Google to ignore this startup.
3. CityHeroes
CityHeroes leverages the power of people (thousands of people) to improve cities and make them safer. The Santiago, Chile-based company built an app that accomplishes this in three steps:
- Users report any risk or problem they see in their city. This could be something minor (ex: a loose wire) or something massive (such as a terrorist threat).
- CityHeroes sends the reports to local law enforcement, firefighters or any other applicable party.
- Those who receive the report can view the details in real-time. Photos and geolocation information may also be provided.
In other words, CityHeroes is like Waze for the community. Google liked Waze so much that it acquired the company last year. The search engine giant could mentor CityHeroes and help this app achieve a similar level of success.
4. Guubie
Guubie wants to help other companies -- especially startups -- automate their e-mail marketing.
The Santiago, Chile-based startup claims that it can deliver e-mails based on users' behavior. It notes that this is "just like Amazon," but does not indicate that it is affiliated with the retail giant.
If Guubie can deliver on its promise, this service could prove to be invaluable to startups.
5. Tracksale
Tracksale could become the Brazilian version of ForeSee, a customer experience analytics firm. It has already lined up more than 500 clients, including Electrolux.
Tracksale uses "highly simplified" questionnaires to obtain spontaneous feedback for its clients in real time. The company generates graphical reports in real-time as well.
Thus far, Tracksale serves companies in physical retail, e-commerce, consumer goods manufacturing, airlines, hotels, healthcare, finance and education. With Google's expertise in data collection, Tracksale could become one of the industry's top players.
Disclosure: At the time of this writing, Louis Bedigian had no position in the equities mentioned in this report.

We're used to seeing iminlikewithyou's Charles Forman in a (very tight) t-shirt; Vimeo/Normative's Jakob Lodwick is best known for going topless (and/or with bong). So what could get these two dudes into suits and ties? An Esquire photo spread.
We first saw these images last night, and spent part of the morning trying to confirm if they were real -- we wouldn't put it past either guy to gin up an elaborate photoshop prank designed to snare the likes of...us, we guess. But nope, they're in the magazine's next issue, surrounded by the following worthies, all of whom are wearing suits that start-up guys generally can't afford:
Jordan Goldberg stickK.com
Mike Hudack Blip.tv
Dwight Lee TableXchange.com
Matthew Rosenberg Edopter.com
Ron Yekutiel Kaltura.com
Steve Spurgat Urbis.com
Certain observers are likely to note that none of these young men work in Silicon Valley; instead, they're all within driving distance of Esquire's offices in the Hearst building in midtown. To which we say: You're right! And don't they look sharp?

Ok, usually, I can make a batch of cookies and get away with eating 2-3 of them before I'm sick of them. (When I say 2-3, I'm of course not including the additional 2-3 cookies worth of cookie dough that I've scarfed down as well…but those calories don't count… cause it's raw, right? Yeah, that's what I thought).
But these cookies… these simple, sugary bits of goodness are like crack. They should actually be called Crack Cookies. Because once you taste them you know you are headed towards an all day sugar headache.
I've made them twice before… once as a test run and then again for my friend April's Bridal Shower. And each time, I ate so many that I actually went into a diabetic coma and woke up 4 days later with the icing crusted around my finger tips and my name on the pancreas donor waiting list. It's bad. Very Bad. They are really sweet though, some people might think they are too sweet. (As if anything could ever be too sweet. Hmph).
What I'm saying folks… is that these cookies should come with a warning label. Proceed with caution…
This is another recipe from Paula Deen. God Bless Her.
I don't like the way she wrote the instructions for this recipe, so I've changed them to make it easier to follow:
Low Country Bars (or as I like to call them Sugar High Bars).
1 14.4 ounce box of Graham Crackers *You wont use whole box
¾ cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup coconut
1 cup pecan pieces
½ cup milk
1 egg
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
3 tablespoons milk
First, line the bottom of a 13x9 inch baking dish with graham crackers (I usually use 7 whole graham crackers for both the top and bottom.
Crush one cup worth of graham crackers into crumbs and place in a bowl, add pecans and coconut to bowl and set aside.
Measure your ½ cup of milk into a bowl and crack egg into the bowl and gently mix together; set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and add sugar. Stirring constantly (so as not to scramble the egg) add the milk and egg mixture to the pan and bring all to a bowl while you stir constantly. This takes about 10 minutes, because you want to start out a lowish heat and then work your way up (again, so as not to scramble the egg… you could also temper the egg mixture before you add it in, if you like, but I usually don't).
Once boiling, take off the heat and add the pecans, graham crackers and coconut. Stir to mix well, then pour over the graham crackers in the pan and spread evenly. Top with another layer of graham crackers.
Prepare your icing: Combine all icing ingredients and stir well. You want it to be thick but spreadable. Add extra milk if you need to thin it out. Pour on top and smooth over the whole pan. Chill and cut and serve.
They taste great both chilled and at room temperature, but for storing you need to keep them in the fridge.

We often neglect the fact that our body is full of toxins and it badly needs cleansing. We get these toxins entering our body everyday from the food we eat, cigarette smoke, pollution and even alcohol. So if you've been living an unhealthy lifestyle for 20+ years, imagine how much toxins you have accumulated in your body. These toxins doesn't only weaken our immune system, they also cause us to lose energy and affect our emotion.
There are several ways on how you can cleanse your body. One natural and easiest method for colon cleanse is by eating food that's high in fiber. Another natural method is by drinking water mixed with lemon. Now these methods won't get all the toxins out in your body, so don't be afraid taking on other methods too (drinking fiber tablet etc.) The benefit of having a clean body will not only strengthen our immune system, but will also make us a happier person.

Rachel Greenwald Smith on "Compromise Aesthetics"
by Johannes Goransson on Nov.18, 2014
Over on the website "The Account," Rachel Greenwald Smith has an essay on what she calls "compromise aesthetics" of contemporary literature. I'm still thinking about this piece. Please let me know what you think!
1. Compromise aesthetics underlie a range of critical approaches to contemporary fiction and poetry, but their emergence has yet to be adequately historicized.
In her introduction to the Norton anthology American Hybrid (2009), Cole Swensen celebrates the tendency for contemporary works of poetry to make fertile compromises between traditional and experimental forms. She argues that this tendency, a quality she sees as integral to what she calls "hybrid poetry," is defined by an interest in "placing less emphasis on external differences, those among poets and their relative stances" in such a way that "leaves us all in a better position to fight a much more important battle for the integrity of language in the face of commercial and political misuse" (xxvi). In scripting the "battle" in these terms—poetry, envisioned in utopian terms as a united progressive front, against the "misuse" of commerce—Swensen at once makes a powerful plea for the social advantages of aesthetic compromise and affirms poetry as an essentially politically useful (i.e., leftist) enterprise. This stance typifies a position that I will call "compromise aesthetics," or the belief that contemporary art is at its most socially relevant when it forges compromises between strategies traditionally associated with the mainstream on the one hand and those associated with experimental departures from the mainstream on the other.
It was not so long ago that the very works that refused to compromise, those that placed clear emphasis on differences among writers' relative aesthetic and political stances, were seen as the primary means by which any battle against the "commercial and political misuse" of language could be fought. This is how the experimental movements of the twentieth century constituted themselves against the literary norms of their period and sought to expose such norms as implicitly in support of the social, as well as the aesthetic, status quo. [i] Yet the past few decades have seen a dramatic increase in critics and writers whose interest in formally innovative work once may have made them seek out oppositional positions arguing instead that such polarizations are no longer necessary. Observing this trend, Ron Silliman has recently asked, "Why is it that so many young writers are conflict averse in a world in which conflict itself is inherent? What is the attraction to not taking a stand?"
This essay is an effort to answer that question through an assessment of recent critical appraisals of the contemporary literary climate, including the defining statements on hybrid and elliptical poetry; postlanguage lyric; and post-postmodernist fiction. My interest here is not in the accuracy of these appraisals as they pertain to particular literary works. Instead, I focus on the tendency for critics to celebrate what they see as the end of the debates that emerged in the postwar period between those interested in the destabilizing potential of various experimentalisms, and those interested in the expanded access, populism, and social immediacy associated with more accessible or mainstream forms.[ii]
A lot of people have been discussing "the avant-garde" recently, and Greenwald Smith offers some very provocative comments on this topic as well:
Proponents of compromise aesthetics do have one thing right: if we are looking for a coherent avant-garde in contemporary literary culture, we are unlikely to find it. Today's literary production is largely characterized by the prevalence of hybrid forms that bring together a range of techniques from previously opposed aesthetic schools. But lining up the utopianism of compromise aesthetics with the utopianism of positions like Fukuyama's shows that the belief in the triumph of compromise aesthetics is just as inattentive to the continued presence of crises and conflict in the domain of literary aesthetics as the belief in a global capitalist utopia is to the political realities of the present.
If we look closely at contemporary literary works, we can see that aesthetic challenges continue to exist in works that at first glance look like they conform to the qualities championed by compromise aesthetics. Many of these works are hybrid in form: they bring together formal strategies from a range of aesthetic inheritances. Yet this hybridity does not resolve into an easy state of compromise.
Prisoners: A Prepper's Nightmare
by Dan Hoy on Nov.17, 2014
Prisoners takes as its protagonist Keller Dover (Hugh Jackman), a man we might describe as a blue collar conservative Christian American who values family and self-reliance and views as intrinsically unreliable the fragile, gigantic, global apparatus we all cling to, dangling precariously as we are over the void. We might also describe him as a prepper. This movie is basically a prepper nightmare.

Flowers of Violence: Atrocity Kitsch and American Poetry
by Johannes Goransson on Nov.11, 2014
A couple of weeks ago I wrote a response to Gregory Orr's essay in the Writer's Chronicle, in which he argues that Wordsworth is fundamentally democratic in his preface to the Lyrical Ballads because he argues for a non-flowery, non-poetic language that Orr sees as "open" to the lower classes.
But as I pointed out, this rejection of the "gaudy and inane phraseology" is anti-kitsch rhetoric. Further, Wordsworth was definitely not lower class, though he both used the ballad form (a fake lower class form) for an elite audience.
But I wanted to point out another element of Orr's essay and that's his use of a soldier-poet as an example for how poetry should be "emotion recollected in tranquility" (rather than say poems written in the state of disaster). Orr writes that he had read a manuscript by an un-named contemporary US poet about his time as a soldier in Vietnam, and how the two poems he wrote while in Vietnam stuck out from the manuscript, not only as bad poems but as unreal poems (I can't quite remember the exact word Orr uses). The poet-soldier needed distance to achieve a tranquility in order to really process the poetry.
Orr also gives a moving account of accidentally killing his own brother and how it took him years to process this violence.
As I've written before, violence is everwhere. And poetry is not difference. The artistic experience is often a violent one. But contemporary American poetry critics still seems obsessed with distancing poetry from the violence of art and the violence of the world at large. It's the dangers/fears of "aestheticizing violence" (which according to Benjamin is what the Nazis did, more about the Nazi-art connection some other time). And yet, violence is constantly brought in as a way of understanding poetry. Orr has to bring the war into his essay in order to remove poetry from it.
The thing that interests me about bringing it in is the way he joins the "gaudy and inane phraseology" of flowery language – of poetic language, of kitsch – to violence. Kitsch is violence. The poetic is inhuman.
In Orr's article, it's a way to show the importance of achieving distance. I sometimes think about a post I remember reading on John Gallaher's blog a long time ago, in which he referenced an essay by Hank Lazer about a panel on poetry in the mid 80s. The crux of the discussion between different poets (some language poets and some not) was the prevalence of feeling:

A mobile phone (also known as a cellular phone, cell phone, and a hand phone) is a device that can make and receive telephone calls over a radio link while moving around a wide geographic area. It does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by a mobile phone operator, allowing access to the public telephone network. By contrast, a cordless telephone is used only within the short range of a single, private base station.
In addition to telephony, modern mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging, MMS, email, Internet access, short-range wireless communications (infrared, Bluetooth), business applications, gaming and photography. Mobile phones that offer these and more general computing capabilities are referred to as smartphones.

Seven metro Detroit hospitals were listed among the nation's most-wired by Hospitals & Health Networks magazine.
Beaumont Health System of Royal Oak, Detroit Medical Center, Crittenton Hospital Medical Center, Henry Ford Health System, John D. Dingell VA Medical Center, St. Joseph Mercy Oakland and Oakwood Healthcare were listed in the annual survey.
The 16th annual Health Care's Most Wired Survey, conducted between Jan. 15 and March 15 this year, asked hospitals and health systems around the nation about their IT initiatives.
They were judged on four criteria: infrastructure; business and administrative management; clinical quality and safety; and clinical integration.
In addition, St. Joseph Mercy Oakland was named among the most "advanced" wired hospitals.
The survey found that 35 percent of the hospitals used social media to deliver care management messages, and 40 percent provided mobile applications for secure messaging with patients. The survey represents data from 680 surveys.
In total, 20 Michigan health systems made the list. Others are:
- Aleda E. Lutz VA Medical Center, Saginaw.
- Battle Creek VA Medical Center.
- Bronson Battle Creek.
- Carson City Hospital.
- Kalkaska Memorial Health Center.
- Memorial Healthcare, Owosso.
- Mercy Hospital Grayling.
- Metro Health, Wyoming.
- Munson Medical Center, Traverse City.
- Otsego Memorial Hospital, Gaylord.
- Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital, Frankfort.
- Sparrow Health System, Lansing.
- West Shore Medical Center, Manistee.

If you are like me...then even your plastic house plants seem to die on you. I am determined to grow a vegetable garden this summer so I can say things like, "Yes, this salad is made completely from my own garden!" or "Here is a basket of vegetables from my garden...I can't get them to stop growing (laughing and tossing my hair)."
I set out to find plants that no matter how much sun, water, neglect or overcompensation they get….they will grow.
What you need: soil, sun, seeds & water
(For you city folk that don't have an inch of green within miles, no problem. If you don't have an actual outdoor garden area, you can use a planter.)
If you already have an outdoor garden, or rather an area of dirt, make sure to sow the soil before you plant the seeds. I am sure you all know what sowing entails, but just in case (wink wink), it simply means loosening up the soil and pulling out any weeds or stones that might disrupt the vegetables from growing. Already sounding like too much work? Simply pick up a planter and a bag of pre-fertilized soil.
Pick a spot that gets about 6 hours of direct sunlight each day (give or take a couple hours...remember we are only planting things that will live no matter what).
You can pick up small packets of veggie seeds at any hardware or garden store. If you prefer shopping from the comfort of your own home...you can order both seeds and starter plants from online garden shops such as Burpee.com
Good news- your veggies won't need to be watered every day- or even every other day. Or if you're like me it will be once a week. All they need is the equivalent of 1 inch of rainfall water a week. In the beginning when they are just baby seeds- try to keep the soil moist on a daily basis- but then it becomes like flossing- do it when you remember to do it.
"I will survive" plants:
When: Plant beets in late spring or when the weather starts to warm a bit all the way through mid-July.
How: Plant the seeds about 1 inch under the soil and 2-3 inches apart.
Eat: You can eat beets at any size, but they are best full grown when the green are about 6 inches tall.
Tip: Don't forget about the tips. Beet greens are full of flavor and hold even more nutrients than the beet itself.
When: Radishes can be grown all season, but do best in early spring and late summer
How: Plant seeds a half inch deep and 1 inch apart.
Eat: You will be harvesting these little round treats in about a month!
Tip: Radishes are a cool season vegetable, so plan to have the best harvests in spring and fall.
Lettuce (There are tons of different varieties of lettuce- pick your favorite)
When: When you think you've had your last frost- or sometime in April or May
How: Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, cover with soil and water
Eat: Most varieties mature in about 6 weeks, but you can harvest it anytime it looks ready. And it will continue to grow throughout the fall.
Tip: For better tasting lettuce, start picking leaves early as they will tend to get bitter and tough if allowed to grown too long.
Tomatoes (most popular vegetable for any garden size!)
When: Tomatoes are warm weather plants and will not grow in temperatures below 50 degrees. Plant once day and night temperatures are not dipping below that temperature.
How: You can grow your own plants from seeds by starting them inside it pots for about a month, or you can just buy starter plants (easiest way)
Eat: We all know what a ripe tomato looks and feel like, right? So just pick them when they look like that! Or you can pick them a little early and let them continue to ripen inside, off the vine.
Tip: Pinch and pluck the "suckers" that grow in the "crotch" of two branches. These little buds suck energy away from the fruit.
image credit: Tomato_Suckers.jpg
When: If you want to grow from scratch, you will need to start your pepper seeds indoors for at least 2 months before you plan on moving them to your garden. Which is why I suggest going to your local garden store and purchasing starter plants. Plant starter plants about 3 weeks after the last frost.
How: Transplant starter plants from the indoor pots to your well-sowed outdoor garden soil
Eat: Most pepper plants mature in 60-80 days.
Tip: Be patient and allow peppers to fully mature. Some peppers take a while to change from green to red/orange/yellow. The flavor and nutrients increase drastically during that change, making it worth the wait.
Bush Beans ( as opposed to pole beans)
When: Plant seeds after the last frost.
How: Plant about 1 ½ inches deep and 3 inches apart
Eat: Bush bean plants will harvest all summer long. When you start seeing beans, pluck them off and check back again the next week for more!
Tip: Don't let the beans get too big...younger beans are more tender and tastier.
Bonus Tip: Label your planters with our waterproof chalkboard labels.
Another great idea: Our chalkboard labels are a creative, heartfelt way to thank your child's teacher this year!
Here's to turning our black thumbs green this summer! Enjoy all your yummy veggies!

These are photos of the actual model available. Remember that these toys are around 50 years old! All models advertised are original, not restored or repainted unless I have stated otherwise.
Here is a marvellous looking car from the last days before it all went wrong at Corgi. This Chevrolet is from the Golden Jacks era and is in a great shade of metallic red.
It is in very good condition, just a few marks to the paintwork on an upper wing and roof line. The roof panels are in place and not scratched. Suspension, wheel mechanism, window and interior are all superb.
This is possibly the most photogenic model that Corgi issued.
It was not around for long as Golden Jacks were short-lived and this model was re-released with Whizzwheels just a year later. Even those were not produced for long either. So the whole range of these is well worth collecting and each model is always much sought after.

Affiliate Intangibles – Attitude And Out Of The Box Thinking
While the skills of affiliate marketing such as figuring out ppc, building websites, basic keyword seo, content writing and many other things are vitally important and very basic to your online endeavors, you are more than likely going to make the biggest impact on your earnings by improving two intangibles that are somewhat hard to nail down. Once the skills are acquired, more than anything else, attitude and out of the box thinking will get you to that next level.
These two concepts could be discussed separately in different posts, but I believe they are related, so this will be a long post as I try to mix up some stew here and mash things together.
Doesn't Google just piss you off? Don't you just hate it when you're crankin on a CPA offer and they change the lading page and your conversions are cut in half? Doesn't eBay make you mad when your sales stats aren't making any sense? And what about this Obama guy, either you think the right wing republicans are trying to tear him down or you think he may be the anti-christ and is destroying the country. Man, there's enough wrong stuff affiliate marketing and in the larger frame of things that you could probably spend your entire life worrying about it.
Now that you've probably thought about some of that above and may be thinking, "Yea, right on man! Google really is the evil spawn of a vast conspiracy by eBay, Oprah and Obama to lobotomize the world and merge our consciousness with a machine", none of that is going to earn you one penny. In fact, dwelling on excuses, negatives and minutiae will seriously hamper your ability to focus, will hurt your motivation and it takes valuable time away from your business.
It all boils down to controlling your attitude instead of letting it control you. Because of the ever changing landscape of affiliate marketing, this business can certainly give you enough to complain about and as long as your complaints are pointed in the right direction they can benefit you, but the problem is, most times they aren't. Complaints properly focused can change the situation or at least make others aware of a legitimate issue that needs to be dealt with, but complaining just for the joy of flapping your gums only makes you a better complainer, not a person with a better attitude.
Think about that, do you really want to be better at complaining? World class complainers may be great at what they do, unfortunately, the pay isn't that great.
The next time you run across something that really makes your blood boil, instead of dwelling on the issue and complaining to your spouse or writing one of those long ranting blog posts, immediately refocus your attention on your next task or larger project. If you are like most affiliate marketers, you should at least have a mental list, written is best, of the next 25 or so projects or ideas you'd like to work on. Don't wait, when you feel like wasting time complaining, immediately get busy doing something on your list and focus the energy you'd be wasting complaining to a more useful endeavor.
The better you control your thinking, the more likely you will be able to adapt to changes and be able to think outside of the box, which of course is the next subject in this post…
Out Of The Box Thinking
Can you think of a single famous inventor, technological pioneer or great leader that didn't think radically different than the status quo of their time? Probably not, because big change comes from big, and most importantly, different thinkers. Fortunately, affiliate marketing, though it is a different way than most people choose to make a living, doesn't require the innovation of putting a man on the moon. But to reach greater and greater heights does require a mode of thinking that leads to a path most are either unwilling to take or don't realize you can take.
Why doesn't the average affiliate marketer make $300,000 per month? The simple answer is, is that they haven't figured out a way to do it yet. It may come as a shock to you that in he whole scheme of things, affiliate marketing really isn't that hard. Most of us in this business probably possess the pure marketing skills to be doing much better than we are already, but the fact is, we aren't doing better. Why is that? It's because we become comfortable with the systems we have in place or the training we've received because they are working at some level for us. Congratulations, you've learned how to follow directions.
Learning how to think outside the box involves learning how not to follow directions! The directions are in place to teach you the system only. Directions for putting together your computer desk allow you to build a nice desk, that's it. They don't tell you what kind of computer to buy, what kind of software to put in your computer or what to use the computer for.
I see this in PPC Coach where there's a system and how to exercises in place to teach members the ins and outs of pay per click marketing. Every month there are more involved lessons and ideas on how to better your ppc efforts and some follow those directions to the letter. What some forget though is that there aren't any rules that say you must continue to work the lessons on a monthly basis. They are simply guidelines to get you to think about ppc differently than you may have in the past and that's exactly what they were for me. Expanding on the lesson learned in PPC Coach has helped me go on to earn thousands where I had previously lost hundreds.
Right now though I'm still in a box though. It's a $10,000 per month box, but it's still a box. Others think in a $30K, $50K or $100K per month box. They learned to see beyond the $10K per month box and expand their "what if" thinking to a whole new level. And that's one of the secrets for us as affiliate marketers that will help us see beyond the normal, learning to always ask "what if". What if I did this backwards? What if Google didn't matter? What if you didn't follow the rules (I'm not advocating black hat here)? What if offer xxxx was only paying half of what it is, how could you still make money with it. What if I offer legitimate stuff to customers instead of rip-off gimmicks with recurring monthly charges? What if I bid on concept keywords instead of specific keywords in my ppc marketing. What if Google Quality Score didn't matter, and on and on. It's good to sit down from time to time and make a list of "what if" scenarios and meditate on them for a bit to see what you come up with.
It's also important to get outside of the realm of affiliate marketing on a regular basis to get your mind thinking in a different direction. Go to your favorite book store such as Barnes & Noble and read up on the economy, find out how finance and economics works, read about how designers developed the latest Ferrari, the challenges the latest software packages are helping 3d modelers overcome, what people are doing to make due when they lost their job and so on. A constant refreshing of your mind with new ideas will help you see beyond your current mode of thinking into an ever expanding box that someday will expand large enough to encompass your ultimate goals and desires, whatever they may be.
Using all their skills wisely, the average affiliate marketer will have an average business and make average money. Marketers that take those same skills and reverse engineer the rules by thinking out of the box with an attitude of finding solutions instead of complaining, will succeed wildly. Never forget that the rules are put it in place to tell you what you can't do, they rarely, if ever, tell you what you can do. It's up to you to put on your thinking cap and figure that out.

text: 5th September 2017 | IN HOTEL DESIGN | BY SBID ShareTweetPinterestLinkedInThis week's instalment of the #SBIDinspire series features the dream-like Kanuhura Resort, an island retreat situated in Lhaviyani Atoll, the Maldives, a true paradise for free-spirited travellers. Inspired by the concept of 'gypsy jet-setters' or 'gypsetters' a term coined by Muza Lab – the project focused on pulling inspiration from these two concepts. Combining the free-spirited lifestyle of 'gypsies' with the decadence and the spontaneity of 'the jet set-life.' "We found inspiration in the legends, culture and natural world of the islands – their stories, colours and sculptural forms. By bringing these influences into the experience of Kanuhura, we have created a sense of free-spirited timelessness and well being where guests can escape from their normal lives and find a place to create their own special memories with family and friends." Inge Moore Muza Lab completely redesigned and reimagined the private island resort breathing new life and spirit into the holiday retreat. "The concept of luxury is changing," says Moore. "Luxury is now about what you get to feel inside rather than what you have to show off. As designers, this means it's our thought process that sparks these feelings, and that really excites me. So with Kanuhura, we loved translating the values that bring happiness to sophisticated, well-travelled 'gypsetters' into experiences designed to elevate their sophisticated, free-spirited souls." SBID had the opportunity to speak with Inge Moore, Founder of Muza Lab about this spectacular project. Company: Muza Lab Project: Kanuhura Resort, Maldives Project Location: The Maldives What was the client's brief? We were presented with the opportunity to redesign every existing area of Kanuhura Maldives as well as to introduce new spaces, working from the big picture though to every minor detail, from creating larger guestrooms and renovating the F&B outlets, to amenities such as crockery, picnic baskets and uniform collections for the staff. What inspired the design of the project? We wanted to create something different from the usual luxury hotel offering in the Maldives, something that was bohemian, colourful and laid-back. Our inspiration for this was the word "gypset" – describing a lifestyle that combines the unconventionality of the gypsy with the sophistication and speed of the jetsetter. We always like to tell stories through our design and, in this case, we were spoilt for choice! Extraordinary legends, fascinating cultural traditions and the stunning natural world of the islands gave us so many ideas that we could weave together, taking their forms and palette into different spaces and bringing them to life with an authentic sense of place. The inspiration for the arrival area, for example, is the black and white sarong of the local Boduberu performers who showcase tales of heroism, satire and romance. The island kitchen A Mano, which translates as "touched by the hand", embraces all that is handmade and natural, with lime washed timbers, local stones, woven fabrics and eclectic handmade ceramics. In Bottega Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar, fiery reds and corals mingle with sandy pinks, yellows and bright blues in a celebration of the colours of the Indian Ocean. With the guestrooms & suites, we wanted to showcase the phenomenal panoramas, whilst bringing elements of the landscape into the design through material and colour choice. The Palm Houses take their palette from the surrounding palm trees and their position on the beach means that they benefit from uninterrupted views towards the ocean. The Shell Houses are raised over the Indian Ocean with exteriors inspired by the traditional local dwellings. Each of their outdoor courtyards has a bath so that guests can bathe under the stars whilst the terraces feature nets with large fluffy cushions suspended over the turquoise water, allowing sophisticated castaways a very private and luxurious connection with nature. What was the toughest hurdle your team overcame during the project? As the resort is so remote, the logistics of getting all the materials and products we needed on site was probably the toughest hurdle. We also had to bear the humid climate in mind when making each design choice. Everything used needed to be hard-wearing to combat the sun, sea and tropical rain, yet also beautiful. Striking the balance between the two was imperative to create a luxury oasis that could stand the test of time. What was your team's highlight of the project? The best thing about the project was actually the same as what we found hardest – the location. It was such a fabulous place to work and whilst it could be a hassle, it was worth it. Why did you enter the SBID International Design Awards? SBID International Design Awards are widely considered to be one of the top schemes in the industry.

We demonstrate the integration of short metal nanoparticle chains (L ≈700nm) supporting localized surface plasmons in Silicon On Insulator (SOI) waveguides at telecom wavelengths. Nanoparticles are deposited on the waveguide top and excited through the evanescent field of the TE waveguide modes. Finite difference time domain calculations and waveguide transmission measurements reveal that almost all the TE mode energy can be transferred to nanoparticle chains at resonance. It is also shown that the transmission spectrum is very sensitive to the molecular environment of nanoparticles, thus opening the way towards ultra-compact sensors in guided plasmonics on SOI. An experimental demonstration is reported with octadecanthiol molecules for a detection volume as small as 0.26 attoliter.

For more than a hundred years travellers and explorers returning from the valley of the Amazon have brought back the strange story of a fish alleged to have the extraordinary habit of entering the human urethra, in both male and female bathers, particularly when passing urine while bathing. The unfortunate victim of such a remarkable accident, particularly the male, finds himself in a most serious predicament, for this tiny fish, once engaged in the urethra, fastens itself there through the erection of spinous processes on its gill covers, and can be removed only by means of a most serious operation,

Sand & Gravel
There is an abundance of uses for Dolese's sand and gravel, and it all comes with Dolese's unparalleled quality control and unrivaled service. Our ranking as one of the top sand and gravel producers in the country comes from our ability to offer quality products that meet our customers' needs at a competitive price. From our eight production or distribution facilities that cover Oklahoma City and Enid, we provide a variety of materials.
Dolese's concrete sand, made to meet ASTM C33 standards, is a washed high quality specification product that is thoroughly tested at each production facility and in our quality control lab in Oklahoma City to ensure it meets applicable gradation requirements. Concrete sand is primarily used as the fine aggregate component in the production of concrete, but also meets specifications as granular backfill and some filter applications.
DSS is a high quality washed product made to our own specification and is a slightly finer gradation than ASTM C33 concrete sand. This finer gradation improves the finishing qualities of concrete, particularly in residential flatwork applications.
Dolese's masonry sand is washed and screened to remove imperfections. This product is very fine, which makes it ideal for grout, mortar, and other masonry applications including use as a "joint sand" to fill the joints between pavers and patio blocks. Masonry sand is very clean, but it is normally a non-specification product.
Dolese's screened fill sand is a clean non-spec washed product. Because it is clean it is a great material to use in the production of asphalt. Our screened fill sand meets ODOT specs for standard bedding material. It can also be used as a leveling course in many outdoor masonry applications, as a bed for an above ground pool, or to construct a sand volleyball court.
Unscreened fill sand is an unprocessed non-specification material generally loaded right out of the river or lake bank. Although it is a non-spec material, unscreened fill sand can be a good value for general fill applications.
Gravel is smooth rounded river rock. When used in the proper concrete mix and finished properly it produces a very appealing exposed aggregate appearance. It also has a wide variety of decorative, landscaping, and natural filtration applications. River gravel is produced only at our Sand and Gravel plant in Mustang, Oklahoma.
Call Dolese's Aggregate Sales Department at (405) 235-2311 for more information on our products or delivery options.
To guarantee that our aggregate products meet specifications and customer expectations, we constructed across-the-board Quality Control Lab upgrades at each of our quarries. These labs are staffed by numerous trained technicians who perform constant tests on our sand and gravel, ensuring we produce a consistent product.
Our aggregates are further tested at Dolese's Central Lab in Oklahoma City - in both raw form and as a component of ready-mixed concrete. At the central lab, aggregates undergo annual testing for alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in concrete, as well as the determination of physical properties such as abrasion resistance, soundness, specific gravity and absorption. In the form of ready-mixed concrete, they also undergo freeze/thaw testing according to ASTM and Oklahoma Department of Transportation specifications.

Two Kinds Of Bad
Let's start with the Czech Republic. We've seen the uniforms for Canada, the USA, and Russia, so it seems entirely appropriate to heap some more bad on the pile that is already forming for the Olympic Winter Games.
The faux lace-up collars are terrible. Like I simply cannot un-see them now when I look at any of the Olympic uniforms. They stand out so clearly in these photos, and I'm afraid of what they'll look like on high-definition televisions when the cameras are zoomed in. I really am starting to hate any and all laces - real or fake - on jerseys of all kinds.
The second bad was entirely preventable, but still unfortunate. If you missed the highlights last night, Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick gave up one of the longest goals in his career, and his reaction afterwards pretty much said it all.
The worst part of that? The Kings trailed 2-1 with just 4:39 to play and were on the powerplay at the time. Jonathan Quick did not have a good evening. There are a couple of updates for you. Tomorrow, HBIC will present something huge if people continue to respond positively to it. It's something that I asked you about on the survey that very few people actually completed, but those that did stated that they wanted this. If you want to have your say, get it in now. I can still make changes tomorrow, but I will push forward with this new addition to HBIC if the results remain the same. Fill out the survey, have your say, determine what appears on this blog. Easy-peasy, completely anonymous, and takes about three minutes maximum. Do it. You still have time to make a difference!
Until next time, keep your sticks on the ice!


text: Popdart 77 Posted December 4, 2015 After having a flick through the new book, I've noticed that a few of the NPC enemies have special abilities that grant them extra attacks as Free Actions. The wording of some of these abilities indicates that these Free Action attacks occur immediately after another Attack action. This seems to blatantly break the limit on one Attack action per round and the FAQ ruled on this in a similar manner for the Desperado Move and Shoot ability. Here are a couple of examples. First up: Dark Eldar Incubus on page 117. Master of the Klaive: Once per round, when an Incubus inflicts Critical damage on an Elite or Master opponent (or a PC), he may make a melee Standard Attack action against another foe in range as a Free Action. Second: Eldar Striking Scorpion on page 107. Scorpion Sting: As part of a Charge action, a Striking Scorpion may make an additional Standard Attack or Semi-Auto Burst action with his mandiblasters as a Free Action. This occurs once he reaches the target, but before he makes his melee attack. He suffers a -10 penalty on his Ballistic Skill test but also benefits from relevant modifiers for range as normal. I'm curious about what this might mean. On the one hand, the abilities are very much in line with what you would expect these NPC combatants to be able to do. However, these abilities do completely ignore the Action limitations that are placed on the players and ignore the previous rule treatment for Move and Shoot. Is this something that could/should be modified to make it conform to the rules or should the Action limitations be revised to allow more cool stuff for players and NPCs? This would also make the Desperado's ability more exciting again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shake your what? Djibouti? You have heard of it right. Is it the new dance craze?
A few weeks ago I had never heard of this African nation called Djibouti pronounced "ji-boo-tee". However in less than a 24 hour period the country came up in two very different circles of conversation. It was a sign. We need to learn more about this country!
Djibouti is located on the Red Sea and Indian Ocean giving the nation a strategic advantage for Suez canal shipping lanes providing a majority of the nation's trade. The region has been inhabited since 8000 BC with a current population of just under 1 million speaking primarily French and Arabic.
What is there to see in Djibouti?
- Check out Lake Abbe with a lunar atmosphere and covered with flamingos. Famous for filming location of first Planet of the Apes movie (in review for UNESCO heritage status)
- Take a hike among the Goda Mountains to check out the waterfalls
- Swim or more appropriately float in Lake Assal as the salt level is similar to the Dead Sea (in review for UNESCO heritage status)
- Snorkel with whale sharks in the Bay of Ghoubbet
- Soak up the Arabian culture with a visit to the sea side town of Tadjourah
In May 2015 The Telegraph had an article "Djibouti: Africa's hottest new travel destination" with tourism on the rise over 300% in the last 20 years. However tourism remains in it's infancy I suspect due to the cost and challenges of local transportation. I may not put this country high on my wish list however it definitely will be added to the list for a someday wish list.
For more information check out Djibouti Office National du Tourisme and Lonely Planet "Djibouti" guide book
