Maine lawmakers fail to override LePage veto of bill to promote gun sale background checks
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � A bill designed to encourage background checks for gun sales has failed in the Maine Legislature.
The Democratic-controlled House on Wednesday voted to sustain Republican Gov. LePage's veto of the bill.
Under the bill, background checks would have been voluntary. But, sellers would get a $500 civil fine if they don't do a background check and it's determined that the person to which they sold the gun is banned from buying guns, like a convicted felon.
In his veto message, LePage says that the bill doesn't address the real issues surrounding gun violence.
Bill sponsor Rep. Mark Dion, a Democrat from Portland says he will continue fighting to encourage background checks and improve public safety.

Just two of many possible variations. My hunch is that the black only version appropriately adjusted could articulate PSpace. My further hunch is that there is some way of using levels of warmth to visualize ESpace and maybe the blue channel for Cog Space.

'You're a Turk… you've a hundred women around you: you buy them and you sell them when your passion dies' – so says Fiorilla to her new suitor Selim in Rossini's Il turco in Italia. But despite painting all Selim's countrymen with a rather broad (and to modern audiences, uncomfortable) brush, Fiorilla is irresistibly captivated by his exotic allure. Like many an operatic character – and indeed like many an opera or ballet – she can't resist the charms of the East.
Il turco in Italia, first performed in 1814, built on the then-current vogue for Turquerie. A few years earlier Mozart enjoyed tremendous success with his 1782 Singspiel Die Entführung aus dem Serail, set in the palace of a Turkish ruler. There was a lot of other successful 'Turkish' music from the period, including various instrumental works by both Haydn and Mozart. There were even some fortepianos built with a 'Turkish' stop, which could add exotic bells and cymbals to the sound.
In the 19th century the focus often shifted further east. Petipa's 1877 ballet La Bayadère is set in India and tells the story of a temple dancer. Petipa incorporated some references to traditional Indian dance – although the fact that he was able to draw on the choreography he had recently completed for Verdi's Egyptian opera Aida suggests that La Bayadère's exotic elements were not all carefully attuned to India.
Orient-inspired operas were particularly fashionable in mid-to-late 19th-century France: Bizet's Sri Lanka-set Les Pêcheurs de perles and Egyptian Djamileh; Massenet's Thaïs, set in Egypt's Byzantine rule. Saint-Saëns' La Princesse jaune has a plot that epitomizes the fashion for exotic Orientalism: Kornélis is obsessed with everything Japanese and falls in love with a painting of 'Ming', a Japanese girl. After taking some opium, he fantasizes about a trip to Japan – but, when he awakes, he realizes that he loves his Dutch cousin. The lightly pentatonic score, just like the plot, flirts with Japanese themes but is firmly rooted in the West.
Moving into the 20th century, Puccini's 1904 opera Madama Butterfly is also an expression of the contemporary fashion for exotic Oriental settings. But Puccini and his librettists Illica and Giacosa are subtle in how they explore the dialogue between East and West. Much of the music has a 'Japanese' style, with pentatonic melodies and percussion including glockenspiel and gong – but this is in opposition to the stridently Western style of the Americans' music. These two styles are carefully intermingled and contrasted over the course of the opera – although the grim conclusion is set to thoroughly un-Western-style music, flying in the face of Western harmonic convention. Butterfly is no mere exotic trinket: she is carefully fleshed out, and her tragedy mirrors the complexity of real-life cultural exchange.
As horizons broadened through the 20th century, the novelty of an Oriental setting decreased. Operas and ballets could, after all, be set absolutely anywhere – Siberia, the moon, 'above the clouds' – and musical style became more malleable as well. In Szymanowski's Król Roger, for instance, the sensual 'Oriental' music of the Shepherd is contrasted with music drawing on Greek and Byzantine traditions, creating a mixture of styles which goes beyond the conventional East–West divide. Meanwhile, MacMillan's Song of the Earth makes subtle reference to the Chinese origins of the text of Mahler's music through gestures as fleeting as flexed wrists and ankles.
More recently, operas by composers including Tan Dun and Toshio Hosokawa have been set in China, Japan and elsewhere – but giving a very different perspective from that of Saint-Saëns or Puccini. And Akram Kham and Shobana Jeyasingh are among the choreographers who have created work that combines Western styles with a thorough grounding in traditional South Asian dance. Times may have changed, but there is still something fascinating about how cultures interact.
Madama Butterfly runs 20 March–25 April 2017. Tickets will be available soon.

Last night, I participated in Tron Night, a promotional gimmick to build buzz and anticipation for Disney's big tent pole Christmas season film, Tron Legacy. Like a similar stunt two summers ago for Cameron's now record-breaking Avatar (both the preview and movie I wasn't impressed by), Tron Night consisted of approximately 20 minutes of footage—a collection of about 5 or 6 disconnected scenes from the first half of the movie. Unlike Avatar, I came away very impressed by what I saw.
Last year's preview was such a huge letdown, so maybe my standards were lower this time. The effects of Avatar looked nice, but I left with that Ferngully-vibe that later marred the film for a lot of people who dared to question Lord Cameron (as a fan of Aliens, Terminator, and even The Abyss and Titanic, I was especially disappointed after the long wait for his latest project). For all the marketing and promotion of how Avatar would revolutionize the ontological nature of cinema itself, I found the 3D surprisingly underwhelming and the whole look of the film was just plain, well, fake. I don't know another word for it—I just didn't feel a part of its world (in both senses of the phrase) for a second. It wasn't just the blue skin and other design features of the Navi and their fellow inhabitants of Pandora that looked fake—it was how, even beyond that, they didn't look photorealistic or three-dimensional at all. Instead, they had the bland 2D flatness of a fancy cartoon drawing instead of the convincing depth and life of, say, Golem in Lord of the Rings. The Navi looked so unrealistic that it made the indexical reality of the rest of the movie feel off for me.
And when I saw the final version months later with an open mind, it was just more of the same fakeness, structured around a clichéd, predictable plot that was about an hour longer than it needed to be. I know there were a lot of people, mostly teenagers, who genuinely loved Avatar (but let's see how they feel about it in ten years), but its success was really due to a huge financial investment in technology upfront, an elaborate marketing campaign that repeatedly sold the film's questionably "groundbreaking" technology, and all different kinds of ridiculous ticket inflation (3D prices, IMAX prices, even the average general admission cost is double what it was when Titanic was released 13 yrs ago). The movie itself was a whole lotta blah, and the extended preview telegraphed it.
But there were no such reservations about Tron Legacy, which may or may not turn out to be a good movie. But, of course, a big caveat: I am a huge fan of the original Tron, which was more technologically groundbreaking in how it redefined "cinema" than anything Avatar ever did. Cameron's film did nothing especially innovative in 3D cinema, digital effects, or the IMAX format—what it did was combine them so completely at a level of spectacle and narrative unlike anything before it (but, hey, when you are "King of the World," it's a lot easier to afford that kind of "innovation" [$$$] in the first place). The original Tron took film apart—literally—and put it back together again. Much was made of how Tron contained the first ever completely computer-generated scenes in feature-length film history; but it was remarkable in other ways too. The film was shot on 70mm stock so that artists could go in and modified the look of the movie frame-by-frame with backlighting, hand drawings and so forth. Tiny details that would take a digital effects artist a few seconds to do today took months, even years, back then.
Its achievement was quite literally the whole history of movie effects, side-by-side with the future of movie effects simultaneously. Tron the movie itself was the technological innovation for its time; Avatar was just the most effective exploiter of other technological innovations (there was a reason Cameron spent a decade off making IMAX and 3D documentaries before returning to feature-length narrative films). Tron was not a big hit when it first appeared—partly because of intense marketplace competition in science fiction in 1982 (ET, Star Trek II, Blade Runner, etc.)—but also because it was too far ahead of its time. Neither audiences, nor perhaps the computer effects themselves, were yet ready for what Tron was trying to do.
My own relationship to Tron of course is not only a form of technological admiration (one that only grows as I come to better understand the process of filmmaking more with each passing year), but also a deeply affective and nostalgic one. But it's weird—I don't remember watching the film in theatres as a kid (I would have been four), and in fact the first time I ever remember watching it in its entirety was when I was in my 20s and I picked it up on DVD. But it spoke to something in me. For one thing, I remember watching the "Light Cycle" and other scenes countless times on the Disney Channel as a kid (this was back when the premium cable channel just recycled older content rather than offered any new programming, and I first saw a lot of Disney's extensive catalog that way).
So I do remember watching a great deal of it when I was young—just not the complete movie. Moreover, watching Tron a couple decades later, I was thrown back not only to an era of early CGI that was oddly reassuring in its primitive state, but also to a video game culture structured around the old-fashioned "Game Arcade" that was ubiquitous when I was a child, but which was already quickly passing in the 21st Century home gaming era of Playstations and Xboxes. I remembered playing the Tron arcade game as a kid, as well as numerous others from the period. Tron spoke retrospectively to that huge part of my youth—where I would go off to the Mall arcade for an hour with a few bucks in hand while my parents were shopping.
I don't know that the story of Tron ever really particularly sucked me in—the standard "technology is overtaking the world" kind of sci-fi narrative. Even Bridges' Flynn was a strangely uninvolving character, an aloof jerk (and unevenly acted by Bridges in a rare uncharacteristic performance), while Bruce Boxleitner was too predictably bland to make for an interesting lead. Rather, it was the atmosphere of both 1980s arcades and the seductively beautiful spectacle of the ENCOM Mainframe world itself that appealed to me.
I don't think that I ever felt "immersed" into that diegetic world, but I always found its sterile beauty transcendent and even soothing in its own nascent way. It became one of those "late night" movies for me—the ones (usually horror or science fiction) that I watched at night when I couldn't sleep. They helped me sleep not because they were boring, but because they were, and are, so effectively atmospheric that I was taken out of my own world and into another just enough to calm me down and drift away. In a sense, I got lost in the spectacle of Tron.
And, based on what I saw last night, Tron Legacy takes that feeling to a whole new level—is it as groundbreaking as the original? Of course not. I'm not sure it does anything really technologically advanced. But what it does well is maintain the clean, barren, symmetrical look of the original, with the attendant iconography, while also giving the Mainframe world just enough grit, fog and shadows to feel like a more three-dimensional, and even more quietly sinister, world. Whereas the original Tron was simply alien in its mise-en-scene, the new one is more ambiguous, ominous and absorbing.
You feel like you're in a world that is straddling the line between science-fiction and horror, while still retaining the original's techno-beauty (it must be said here that Daft Punk's score sounds simply amazing—particularly in a sequence where several Recognizers float across the digital landscape after picking Sam up—and will be worth the price of admission alone. It matches the look, sound and feel of Tron's world while also being unlike anything we heard in the original).
Of course, this new sense of immersion, unlike the first Tron, is also due to the wise addition of 3D. But I didn't find the 3D effect all that engaging on its own—in fact, it had the same two-plane effect that I perceived when I saw Avatar. There are objects in the foreground, while the background often felt like a flat wall, particularly involving scenes of dialogue. But overall it was effective in selling Sam's new experience in his dad's world.
The early "real life" scenes shown—Sam being visited at his apartment (inside a cargo shipping container) by Alan (a welcome sight in Boxleitner again), and then him exploring his Dad's abandoned arcade (lovingly recreated from the original) were presented in the usual 2D, leading me to assume that only scenes inside the ENCOM mainframe are done in 3D. This would be a clever creative (and well as cost-conscious) move, if true.
So, what scenes did I see? The first two, as I noted above, involved Sam in the real world. I hope Boxleitner has a bigger role in the full version (the first scene of Alan's visit was listed as Scene 20, so hopefully there's more backstory involved in how we get from Tron to Tron Legacy). Sam's coffee table is littered with motorcycle magazines, clearly a daredevil and a bike junkie that foreshadows the Light Cycle scenes. The next scene involves Sam discovering his dad's basement office beneath the arcade, appropriately decorated with the relevant technology from the 1980s (a nice compliment to the old school arcade games above), where—after an abrupt cut—we are left to presume he is zapped like his Dad in the original into the computer world.
We then jump ahead to the 3D stuff and a lengthy scene in the Grid where Sam is captured by a Recognizer, carried off to a processing center, fitted with the appropriate outfits and memory discs by four female programs, and then sent off to fight in a Disc game (much like Flynn's experience in the original, minus the obvious sex appeal). After that, we jump ahead to the very end of a Light Cycle sequence, where another program—played by Olivia Wilde—helps him escape the games and the city, into a space that is presumably "off-line." Then, she takes Sam to the "safehouse" where he (and the audience) are re-introduced to Flynn, played with a suitably zen-like gruffiness by Jeff Bridges (this time channeling a mellower, more soft-spoken Lebowski).
This last scene was my favorite—I don't know if I'm sold on the actor overall, but in this scene Garrett Holmund really sells Sam's emotional state at seeing his father for the first time in 20 years, it is genuinely moving, while Bridges' nails Flynn's strange ambivalence as both a father genuinely happy to be reunited with his son, but also as a man who has been trapped in a networked, digitized world for so long that he no longer clearly has the interpersonal, human capacity to relate to other people in a compassionate way (thus making Sam's heartbreak all the more devastating). It could be a great performance.
The extended preview ends with Flynn looking out over the world from the vantage point of his safe house (in a vision of the city directly evoking a similar shot in the original), and then transitions over the standard theatrical teaser trailer that many people have already seen. In fact, all the scenes in Tron Night felt like extended versions of the moments we've already seen in previews. There is one quick reference to "Tron" himself (which was Alan's program in the original), but there's no clear sense of what, if any, role the title character plays in this sequel. There is also no real sense of the film's larger plot—we don't know what's at stake—online or in the real world—for Sam, Flynn, Alan or anyone else this time around.
The preview worked for me because it successfully appealed to, and intensified, the two things I love about the original: nostalgia for various media technologies and cultures from the 1980s, and the techno-beauty of Encom's mainframe. And the role of Flynn, plus the reappearance of Bridges and Boxleitner, grounds the film in such a way that it feels like a true continuation of the original, rather than just another half-brained "reboot," "reimagining," or some other hollow, quick money-grab on the backs of another maxed-out transmedia franchise. So, I'm on board.
End of line.

Insurance planning is also known as "risk management" or the use of insurance to protect against specific risks.
Some specific risks, which could significantly impact your standard of living are:
- The risks of having inadequate income and cash flow should a family member die or become ill or incapacitated
- The risk of a lawsuit from a third party as a result of an accident, misrepresentation, or omission
- The risk of property damage or an inability to replace property if a catastrophic event should occur
In insurance planning, we identify possible risks and calculate the amount of potential loss to you should the event occur. We then create a strategy to mitigate the risks, using a combination of insurance vehicles and/or self-insurance. In most cases, risks can only be mitigated and not eliminated.
With over 25 years of experience in insurance planning, Cornerstone Financial Group are the ideal partner to help you and your business evaluate the risks and plan for the future safely and logically.

Party invites with Unity
I don't about you, but I am so relieved that it's Friday.
I'll keep this post short, as I have so much to do tonight.
My DDs birthday is coming up (she's going to be 4!! OMG!!!) and she's having a small family get together. ..a party of sorts. Of course, if you ask her, she's having the gala of the year. Anyway, we always make the invitations and mail them to her cousins. So, we pulled out the stamps and cards. And since it's Friday, why not use Unity stamps? Two birds, one stone kinda deal.
I used my watercolor pencils, and stamped the 'Party' in Distress Ink Picked Raspberry and WRMK purple sweetheart inker.The gold is golden Stickles.
That's it for me for now. I am off to make more of these. I am linking this up to Unity Friends with Flair challenge.
Be safe. Get crafty.

Go-Ahead appoints Nigel Featham as managing director of Go-North West
Nigel Featham has been appointed as the new managing director at Go-North West, the group's new bus business in Manchester. Feetham joins from Arriva where he led the North East, Yorkshire and Yorkshire Tiger bus operations over the past 10 years.
The new Go-Ahead operation in Manchester follows the recent £11.2million acquisition from First Bus of the 160-vehicle Queens Road bus depot serving Oldham and Bolton.
"We are delighted to welcome Nigel to the business with the regional expertise and customer focus that he brings," says David Brown, chief executive of the Go-Ahead Group.
"Go-North West is a significant growth opportunity for Go-Ahead and I am confident that Nigel will bring invaluable and inspiring leadership to the team in Manchester."
Featham adds: "The North West is going to be one of the most dynamic theatres of public transport evolution in the next few years, and to be in at the ground floor with Go-Ahead is the sort of opportunity that is too good to turn down."
The Go-North West operation went live on 2 June.

As it is said, And you shall love Hashem your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. . . .
And with all your might means with all your wealth. Another interpretation: With all your might means with every measure that he measures out for you, thank him much. —m.Berakhot 9:5
Once Rabbi Israel [Salanter] and his friend Rabbi Mordecai Meltzer were walking through the narrow sidestreets of Vilna. They stopped and entered a synagogue to join in the minchah service. Rabbi Mordecai poured a copious stream of water over his hands while Rabbi Israel [Salanter] by contrast, merely moistened his, hardly using any water at all.
Astonished Rabbi Mordecai blurted out:"Do you not, sir, observe the custom of washing before praying?"
"Indeed, I do," replied Rabbi Israel [Salanter]. "But I see here that the synagogue is frequented by a limited number of worshippers. Visitors do not usually come here. The shamash certainly intended to provide just enough water for the regular worshippers. If we waste a large quantity, the deficiency will be felt by one of the congregants. He will upbraid the shamash and withhold the few pennies he normally gives. And so we will be guilty of denying the shamash his livelihood."
-- The Mussar Movement Volume 1, Part 2, pages 219 - 220
And Jacob uttered a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and He will guard me on this way, upon which I am going, and He will give me bread to eat and a garment to wear; And if I return in peace to my father's house, and the Lord will be my God; Then this stone, which I have placed as a monument, shall be a house of God, and everything that You give me, I will surely tithe to You." – Genesis 28:20-22

The annual silly season seems to be slowly getting into swing even earlier than usual this year, even after a record 2015 where over half the grid found themselves in new cars/teams for the season opening 2016 Clipsal 500. In light of all the recent debate, I've thrown my hat into the ring and given my assessment of what I would like to see happen to some of the key movers who are said to be out of contract at the end of the year. Of course, I'm not starting any rumors or false speculation, but merely giving my opinion on who could/should go where!
Scott McLaughlin
McLaughlin certainly holds the key to any potential moves over the course of the next few months, and I guess that as his contract talks with GRM have been postponed to after Bathurst, we may have to wait a while to find out his true destination for 2016. Even in motorsport, there's not often smoke without fire and there certainly are a fair few people out there who think McLaughlin to DJR Team Penske is already a done deal, even if it isn't signed on paper yet. It's such a shame that Volvo decided to withdraw their support to Garry Rodgers and his team, because with Volvo on board I think the team had a chance of persuading McLaughlin to stay. However, with Volvo now gone, and potentially the cars and engines too, I think GRM's chances of retaining McLaughlin are slimmer, though it would be great to see him stay.
McLaughlin has said he wants to win the championship for Garry and the team and it would be fantastic for everyone if he succeeded, but DJR Team Penske is looking more and more likely as a destination for one of the sport's hottest properties as the season progresses. There was talk of McLaughlin moving to HRT, but in light of their current performances any move to the Walkinshaw run outfit would be a step sideways, or most probably backwards from where he is now at GRM. It would appear that McLaughlin's loyalty seems to lie with GRM, but the racer and competitor in him probably lies at a team which have the financial resources to become one of the sport's leading teams in the near future.
Verdict: Would be great to see him stay at GRM but looks destined to leave with DJR Team Penske the favoured option.
Scott Pye
I feel sorry for Scott Pye, because no sooner has the 2016 season started and he is already having to answer questions about his plans for 2017. From what everyone understands, Pye is on a one year contract at DJR Team Penske, and with Fabian Coulthard signed to a multi year deal Pye looks like the obvious casualty should McLaughlin arrive at the team, unless they expand to run three cars which looks unlikely. Should Pye lose his seat, I think he could count himself extremely unlucky, because so far this season he has proved himself to be more than a match for his highly esteemed teammate, in my opinion at least.
With McLaughlin's decision now due after Bathurst, it seems Pye has until October at least to convince the team he is worthy of a 2017 drive, but motorsport is sometimes a cruel business and I fear however strongly Pye performs between now and Bathurst, it may not be enough. It would be a huge shame to see Pye leave DJR, but should he be booted in favour of McLaughlin then at least there are some potential openings at some strong teams up and down the grid. A straight swap with McLaughlin would be the obvious option, and if Garry Rodgers can keep the Volvo cars and engines in Australia then GRM will still have an incredibly strong package next season, one which Pye should be more than able to make the most of. With Courtney and Tander still unsigned for next season, there also remains the possibility of a seat at HRT (should Holden remain in the sport), and as I mentioned in my post discussing HRT's current woes, I think Pye could be just the type of driver they need to rejuvenate the team.
Verdict: He will be incredibly unfortunate if he lost his seat, but motorsport is brutal and Roger Penske has his sights set firmly on the top of Supercars. If he did go, then GRM could be a great option for Pye, providing they keep the Volvo's. He would also fit in well at a new look HRT.
James Courtney and Garth Tander
Of course, it's all relative (they are to some extent living the dream) but JC and GT are another two drivers I do feel a little sorry for, because they aren't in cars which match their ability. I think both are still top drivers, and when the car is on song they have delivered results but some woeful qualifying performances are destroying any chances of success in what could be their last season at HRT. Both drivers often get quite a lot of stick on the VASC forums, but I think that both have the talent, and ability to win more than just the one championship, but it's looking increasingly likely that their time is passing.
Should both drivers either choose not too, or not be given extensions at HRT then I think Courtney would be a good fit over at Nissan, and Tander at BJR – I know some journalists have already started the ball rolling with that rumour! I think both of those moves are career defining changes. Brad Jones Racing are a great team, perfectly demonstrated last time out at Winton but if Tander moves there, perhaps in place of Jason Bright who is also rumoured to out of contract then his chances of winning another championship are most likely over. Saying that, as things currently stand they also are at HRT.
Courtney has perhaps one big career move left in him, and a switch to the upward moving Nissan team could be a great move for both parties. From what I understand, Todd Kelly could potentially stand aside, and as a former champion Courtney still possesses some of that star quality which can both win races and bring in sponsors. I think given Todd Kelly's much improved form this season, although he does still lack a little compared to his brother Rick and Michael Caruso, Nissan would be better of replacing Dale Wood, but of course money does talk at the end of the day!
Verdict: Courtney looks fed up at how noncompetitive the HRT Commodore currently is and I would love to see him in a factory supported Nissan drive. Garth Tander has still got the quality and speed to win races but should HRT decide on a drastic reshuffle, or Tander decide not to stay, then he would fit in well at BJR.
Michael Caruso
Caruso looks to be another driver out of contract, but it's hard to see him leaving a Nissan team where he is one of their top performers. A fine podium at the Clipsal 500 has been followed up with a series of solid results which see's him sit inside the championship's top ten. From what I've read and seen, I'd be surprised to see Caruso leave Nissan, but yet again this all depends on Nissan confirming their future involvement in VASC.
Verdict: Has done enough to stay if Nissan decide to continue with Kelly Racing. He's a very strong driver, but perhaps lacks the star power to be in consideration for a drive at one of the top, top teams.
Nick Percat
I'm going to come straight out and say that I don't think Percat is strong enough to take on the challenge of a drive at what could be a rejuvenated HRT. Despite scoring victory at Bathurst in 2011, and at this year's Clipsal 500 Percat's remaining results so far this season have hardly set the world alight, and although there's not too many options out there for the Dunlop Series graduate, I just don't think he's the driver HRT need. There's been plenty of talk about how Percat is a favourite of Ryan Walkinshaw, and he would seem like an obvious option considering his past ties with the team and Walkinshaw operation, and we also have to take in account that Percat has had few chances to show his talent in what is a highly popular, but heavily financially restricted Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport outfit.
It's difficult to know what the future holds for Percat. LDM have said they want him to stay, but it's clear that Percat see's the 2016 silly season as his chance to get himself into a race winning car, he must ensure that he does it in a mature and respectful manner.
Verdict: Difficult to know what 2017 has in store. He needs to be careful not to burn bridges at LDM, taking a leaf out of McLaughlin's book on that topic may go a long way to preserving his status as a VASC driver should the HRT door close.
Lee Holdsworth
Holdsworth seems to be relishing the chance to have a team built around him at Preston Hire Racing and I would expect him to stay on for at least another season. I think Holdsworth is an incredibly strong driver, but he hasn't had the best of luck in his career moves. Should Holdsworth seek pastures new after 2016 then a return to the Walkinshaw outfit with HRT could be an option if JC or GT leave, possibly partnering the likes of Scott Pye. Other than that, or a move to BJR I don't see too many opportunities for Holdsworth, and with Preston Hire Racing showing much improved form in recent races staying for 2017 could be a wise move.
Verdict: Unfortunate with previous career moves and it'd be nice to see him remaining in a rapidly improving team. He's in a Triple Eight built car which still remains the class of the grid.
[…] I don't want to address where Tander could end up next season, I've covered that in previous post but I think a condition of Holden renewing could be that they bring some fresh blood into the team […]

The funding of higher education in Australia is at a crossroads. Our goal should be a competitive higher education system that ranks among the world's best, and there is a need for researchers and commentators to continue the debate as to how this can be achieved. Income contingent loans facilitate equitable access for students, but there are questions about financial sustainability, and anomalies with respect to subsidies, coverage, and effective interest rates. A major issue that has emerged over the last year of debate is related to the role and potential consequences of fee deregulation. As well, there are arguments from some that universities, as beneficiaries of tuition charges, should be more accountable for both debt repayment and the quality of education provided. There are also potentially important lessons from overseas concerning the implications of policy choices with respect to government outlays, student charges and university and student behaviour. Further debate is also warranted on the nature and extent of student income support. Our hope is that this forum will add substantially to the debate, and provide policy makers with more information about possible financing choices and their implications.
The forum will be opened by Professor Brian Schmidt (ANU). Confirmed presenters include: Susan Dynarski (University of Michigan), Lorraine Dearden (Institute for Fiscal Studies, UK), Miguel Palacios (Vanderbilt University), Andrew Norton (Grattan Institute), David Phillips (Phillips KPA), Sean Leaver (RMIT), Rabee Tourky and Rohan Pitchford (ANU), and a panel of higher education experts including Bruce Chapman (ANU), with others to be announced.

Top Reason Why Hire A Professional Interior Designer
Whether its your residential home, office or commercial property, selecting the best interior designer company can have a lot of benefits. When it comes to living or commercial space, you want to put your best foot forward. The property needs to be a reflection of your personality. Choosing a professional designer is a guarantee your space will produce the effect you seek. Here are the top reasons to hire the best interior designer Istanbul has to offer.
#1 Professional Designs
Excellent interior design firms spend valuable time assessing the budget, needs and wants of customers. They don't just invoke styles but determine these s well, assessing how you want the interiors to look. With a design plan in place, unwanted surprises can be eliminated and projects can proceed without a detour.
#2 Save Cash
Interior designer companies save cash and provide value to the interiors. A good designer helps in avoiding costly mistakes and ensures that the settings look professional and increase the value of your property.
#3 Maximize Resources
Time is valuable. So, you need to make the right investment in a skilled interior designer to transform your space. Designers spend a lot of their time acquiring resources and materials and supply unique items that work well with the design plan.
#4 Setting Schedules and Prioritizing Interiors
Another benefit of hiring a professional is their design and management expertise. They coordinate, negotiate, schedule and deal with all aspects of the project so that there is no lack of understanding regarding how the final outcome will be.
#5 Adhere to the Budget
A key advantage of opting for a top company, interior design that speaks from the heart is yet another beneficial outcome. Detailed cost sheeting of all aspects and materials required for the interior design process from materials to shipping, fabrication and installation are taken into account. Projects can also be minutely studied and attention is given to even the smallest details.
#6 The Perfect Blend of Aesthetics and Functionality
Get interiors that are a perfect blend of aesthetics and utility. For example, the living room has to have a symmetrical arrangement with just the right artwork, furnishings and lighting. When it comes to function and form, harmony is the key to an effective interior designer's skills. Increase the value of your home or commercial space by hiring a top interior design firm that specializes in creating the perfect blend of comfort, style and functionality to suit your needs and preferences.

What is doxorubicin?
Doxorubicin is a cancer medication that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body.
Doxorubicin is used to treat different types of cancers that affect the breast, bladder, ovary, thyroid, stomach, lungs, bones, nerve tissues, muscles, joints, and soft tissues. Doxorubicin is also used to treat Hodgkin's disease and certain types of leukemia.
Doxorubicin may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What are the possible side effects of doxorubicin?
Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Some side effects may occur during the injection. Tell your caregiver right away if you feel dizzy, nauseated, light-headed, sweaty, or have a headache, chest tightness, back pain, trouble breathing, or swelling in your face.
Call your doctor at once if you have:
- pain, blisters, or skin sores where the injection was given;
- missed menstrual periods;
- easy bruising, unusual bleeding (nose, mouth, vagina, or rectum), purple or red pinpoint spots under your skin;
- low white blood cell counts--fever, swollen gums, painful mouth sores, pain when swallowing, skin sores, cold or flu symptoms, cough, trouble breathing; or
- signs of heart problems--fast heartbeats, shortness of breath (even with mild exertion), swelling in your ankles or feet.
Doxorubicin may cause your urine to turn a reddish-orange color. This side effect by itself is usually not harmful. However, call your doctor if you also have upper stomach pain, clay-colored stools, or jaundice (yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes).
Common side effects may include:
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
What is the most important information I should know about doxorubicin?
You should not use this medicine if you have an untreated or uncontrolled infection, severe liver disease, severe heart problems, or if you have recently had a heart attack.
Doxorubicin can weaken your immune system. Your blood may need to be tested often. Tell your doctor if you have unusual bruising or bleeding, or signs of infection (fever, chills, body aches).
Doxorubicin may cause dangerous effects on your heart. Call your doctor at once if you have fast heartbeats, shortness of breath (even with mild exertion), or swelling in your ankles or feet.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before receiving doxorubicin?
You should not use this medicine if you are allergic to doxorubicin or similar medications (doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, idarubicin, mitoxantrone), or if you have:
- an untreated or uncontrolled infection (including mouth sores);
- severe liver disease;
- severe heart problems; or
- if you have recently had a heart attack.
To make sure doxorubicin is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have:
- liver or kidney disease;
- bone marrow suppression;
- heart disease or a history of heart failure; or
- if you have been treated before with doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, idarubicin, or mitoxantrone.
Tell your doctor about all other cancer medicines or radiation treatments you have received in the past.
Using doxorubicin may increase your risk of developing a bone marrow disease or other types of leukemia later in life. Ask your doctor about your specific risk.
Do not use doxorubicin if you are pregnant. It could harm the unborn baby or cause birth defects. Use birth control to prevent pregnancy while you are using this medicine, whether you are a man or a woman. Doxorubicin use by either parent may cause birth defects.
If you are a woman, you should avoid pregnancy while you are using this medicine and for at least 6 months after your last dose.
If you are a man, use effective birth control if your sexual partner is able to get pregnant. An unborn baby can be harmed if a man fathers the child while he is using doxorubicin. Keep using birth control for at least 6 months after your last dose.
Tell your doctor right away if a pregnancy occurs while either the mother or the father is using doxorubicin.
This medicine may affect fertility (your ability to have children), whether you are a man or a woman. Ask your doctor about your specific risk.
Doxorubicin can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. You should not breast-feed while you are using doxorubicin.
How is doxorubicin given?
Doxorubicin is injected into a vein through an IV. A healthcare provider will give you this injection.
Doxorubicin is sometimes given together with other cancer medications. You may be given other medications to prevent nausea, vomiting, or infections.
Tell your caregivers if you feel any burning, pain, or swelling around the IV needle when doxorubicin is injected.
If any of this medication accidentally gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with soap and warm water.
Doxorubicin can lower blood cells that help your body fight infections and help your blood to clot. Your blood will need to be tested often. Your cancer treatments may be delayed based on the results of these tests.
SLIDESHOWSee Slideshow
What happens if I miss a dose?
Call your doctor for instructions if you miss an appointment for your doxorubicin injection.
What happens if I overdose?
Since this medication is given by a healthcare professional in a medical setting, an overdose is unlikely to occur.
What should I avoid while taking doxorubicin?
Avoid being near people who are sick or have infections. Tell your doctor at once if you develop signs of infection.
Avoid activities that may increase your risk of bleeding or injury. Use extra care to prevent bleeding while shaving or brushing your teeth.
This medicine can pass into body fluids (urine, feces, vomit). For at least 48 hours after you receive a dose, avoid allowing your body fluids to come into contact with your hands or other surfaces. Caregivers should wear rubber gloves while cleaning up a patient's body fluids, handling contaminated trash or laundry or changing diapers. Wash hands before and after removing gloves. Wash soiled clothing and linens separately from other laundry.
Do not receive a "live" vaccine while using doxorubicin, or you could develop a serious infection. Live vaccines include measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), polio, rotavirus, typhoid, yellow fever, varicella (chickenpox), zoster (shingles), and nasal flu (influenza) vaccine.
What other drugs will affect doxorubicin?
Other drugs may interact with doxorubicin, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products. Tell each of your health care providers about all medicines you use now and any medicine you start or stop using.
Where can I get more information?
Your doctor or pharmacist can provide more information about doxorubicin.

How to repot brittle plants
A tip from the test garden
When moving trailing plants with easily breakable stems, such as calibrachoa, fuchsias, and tuberous begonias, use this method to keep the plants intact.
Step 1
• Gently remove the plant from its existing container by knocking on the bottom of the pot and sliding out the plant.
• Set plant aside.
• Partially fill the larger container you're moving the plant into with soil, then place the old pot inside so the rims of the two pots are roughly flush.
• Firmly pack soil into the gap between the containers.
Step 2
• Gently remove the old pot without disturbing the packed soil.
• Set the plant into the newly made hole and water well.

Wolf Alice @ Madison Live! 12/16/2015
By: Derek Jung
I had heard rumblings of Wolf Alice from across the pond for the last year, so when the UK band was announced at Madison Live! I was pleasantly surprised that such a big name band was going to play such a small, intimate venue here in town. If you don't know them, get familiar, because they're already one of the bigger acts in the UK at the moment. Their debut full length My Love Is Cool was recently nominated for The Mercury Prize, considered one of the highest musical honors, and their single "Moaning Lisa Smile" was also nominated for Best Rock Performance at the 2016 Grammys. Knowing that this very well could be the last opportunity to see them in such a small space, I had to go.
With the accolades the album has been receiving, I was really impressed at how well the energy translates live. Ellie Roswell's voice was in perfect form, and songs like "You're a Germ" and "Fluffy" really popped in terms of their raw grungy feel. Even though the focal point of the band is obviously Roswell, much of the energy and showy elements come from her bandmates, bassist Theo Ellis and guitarist Joff Oddie. Theo in particular, looking like The Bends-era Thom Yorke, kept me watching. Beyond that, one of the highlights of the show was definitely "Swallowtail", the only song sung by drummer Joel Amey, which was just as haunting as the album version, and the ending was stellar. In fact, every song in the set seemed to capture some additional force behind them, resulting in a captivating and wildly entertaining set. Simply put, the band sounded phenomenal.
While they only have one album and two EPs of material to perform, their show included every song that I wanted to hear. The only songs from My Love Is Cool that they didn't play were album opener "Turn To Dust" and "Soapy Water", one of the weakest songs on the album.
Check out the full setlist and a video of the band performing "Moaning Lisa Smile" below.

Houndmouth is a wonderful folk rock band based in Louisville, Kentucky. I had the pleasure of seeing them a few years back at Forecastle Music Festival in Louisville when they were only a glorified regional act. Now, with the release of their foot-stomping new album Neon Limelight, the band has established themselves as a force in upcoming indie music. Madison Theater was the final stop on this leg of their tour, and Houndmouth was treating this as a big, hometown party. Before the show, I got word from some of the staffers at the Madison that the band had around fifty people on the guest list, family and friends that made the quick jaunt north from Louisville, and the capacity crowd certainly wasn't lacking in rectangular "VIP" stickers. Even the Covington Fire Marshall was on hand to make sure that all of the fire codes were followed, probably for the best because I've been to a few sold out shows there that, in my opinion, were oversold (I'm looking at you Sturgill Simpson).
Everyone filled in quickly and I had a prime spot on the first rail to see all of the action on the stage and down in the pit area. Opener HOWARD was an interesting pick for a tour partner. His blend of atmospheric, noisy, guitar picking echoed throughout the venue. At some points he sounded like Chris Martin from Coldplay, and at others if I closed my eyes I would have sworn I was seeing Radiohead playing material off of their The King of Limbs album. Overall I think the band got an okay reception, highlighted by the final song where Houndmouth's drummer, Shane Cody and lead guitarist, Matt Myers came on stage to play.
After a brief intermission, Houndmouth took the stage to rousing applause and wasted no time, blazing through hits from both Neon Limelight and In The Hills Below The City. Being a semi-hometown show, most of the people knew all of the songs, so the show turned into one big sing-along, with the band's fantastic harmonies blended with the audience's passionate voices. This was especially noticeable with songs like "Gasoline", where Kate Toupin commented that the crowd was "going to make [her] cry". A few times, the crowd was so loud that Matt turned his microphone around and let everyone belt it out. You could tell that everyone on stage was enjoying the energy, and they reciprocated back to us.
Gone, for the most part, was the instrument switching that was one of the highlights for me from the first time that I saw them. But it was probably for the best, as each person has developed their own distinct role in the band now. Another well received change was the greatly improved stage presence. There's a difference between just having fun on stage and having fun while also putting on a show. Matt has grown into a great performer, kneeling and laying back during guitar solos; bassist Zak Appleby hopped and jumped around stage and could oftentimes be seen jamming with drummer Shane Cody, and in general the band interacted with each other like one strong, cohesive unit.
By the end of the show, it was clear that Houndmouth was bringing down the house. Matt started the encore with a haunting rendition of "For No One" and then the rest of the band returned for Kate's "Casino (Bad Things)" and finally "My Cousin Greg".
I think Houndmouth is on the verge of breaking out into the mainstream in a big way. I can see them reaching the likes of "The Lumineers" in the not so distant future. Maybe with their next release. Catch them while you can because they're on their way up.

Oh hey! Who the heck are you guys again? Now that I've gotten that stupid joke out of the way, let's talk about the Opry. This was my second time to the legendary Ryman Auditorium, and it was also my second time seeing the Grand Ole Opry. (Though last time it was at its native residence out at Opry Mills) I wanted to mix things up this time around, so I found a spot to watch the show from the ground level, and wanted to see what things would be like with such a low-hanging balcony blocking my view. Not just in terms of sights, but in sound as well.
I'm not really going to talk about any of the artists who performed at this show, mostly because there's nothing really to report. It was a pretty lackluster day from the Opry, with Ronnie Milsap and Connie Smith being the two biggest names on the bill. And Smith only got to play a song since she was hosting her section so definitely not enough to even say I've now seen Connie Smith. Even though I've seen her both times I've been to the Opry. But I will say there was a young talent who really stood out. Jackie Lee only had a few songs to feature his genuine country voice, but he really impressed me in that short span of time. He's the only person out of the young talent I've seen so far from the Opry (and Nashville as a whole for that matter) that I really think has a shot at being "the next big thing." And he's also signed to Jason Aldean's label. That always helps. Other than him, this show was really about experiencing the Opry in its original home, The Ryman Auditorium.
In one sentence: The Ryman did not disappoint. While watching the Opry sucked (just look at that picture above) listening to it was one of the greatest experiences I've ever had at a concert. I didn't really get to appreciate the acoustics of the venue at the Walk the Moon show simply because those speakers were not built for indie synth pop. They were, however, built for country music, and I was absolutely blown away listening to this show. For once, I could hear everything that was happening in front of me. I could pinpoint every instrument and exactly what they were doing at any given moment. There was no distortion! At all! I mean, how is that possible? Well, even from underneath the balcony this show sounded incredible. I had extremely high expectations for this venue to deliver in its native habitat, and somehow it did not disappoint.
Who are we?
