I would like to use the inconsolata font in dwm's statusbar. Right now my config.h is set up like so using terminus:
static const char font[] = "-*-terminus-medium-r-normal-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*";
I tried changing that to:
static const char font[] = "-*-inconsolata-medium-r-normal-*-17-*-*-*-*-*-*-*";
But it didn't work. I currently have inconsolata working in urxvt by setting the following line in .Xdefaults:
URxvt.font: xft:inconsolata:size=10
So, I believe the best bet would be to just patch Xft support into dwm, but I can't seem to find a patch anywhere and I'm not sure how to do it myself.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am currently using dwm 5.8.2.
(At the time of this writing I didn't have enough points to create new tags so I just went with X11 and fonts, please feel free to modify).

Re: Some of the girls that want to meet me on POF!
Don't you get it? Boasting that he's too good looking for mediocre AWs is as much a part of his exercise in narcissism as complaining that he's too good looking for the better Pinays.
Re: Some of the girls that want to meet me on POF!
Looks like a mutant:
Looks decent, but her list of wants is absurd:
I don't know how it works in Asia but here in Eastern Europe the gentleman is always expected to cover the cost of the date. That is if he wants a second date.
You invested $10K+ with some shyster but you are too cheap to pay when you ask her out?
Is that part of the reason you may have failed with Asian girls in Canada? Just sayin'

I took my pound cake out too soon! It was lovely and brown on top, but when I upended it on the rack, there was no browning on the inside crust.
It's all white. Help!

I just saw the video. My, that clip of the cake rising and bursting in the oven... I wanted to drop everything and make it right there. Thank you for sharing!
Also, thanks for the info about the cannele moulds. :)
April 4, 2013
I bought the same cannele molds, have used them several times, and they make great eggy custards. I have not used bigger silicone baking molds,so others will have to fill us in.The small cannele molds browned up so well, I too, had to tent the tops with foil.
April 4, 2013
have NOT tried silicon bakeware, but I did buy some mini cannelé silicon molds last year. Haven't used them yet.
i love this video of Raymond Blanc's lemon tea cake, and what he does with the glaze at the end. Going to try that next time. Yum! http://youtu.be/mVPKXE1CE5M
April 4, 2013
Mrs. Larkin, I think I blame the pan. I used a thin, light coloured aluminium bundt pan, and this was the first time I was using it. I've never had trouble with browning with my thicker pans either. The pan likely couldn't retain heat very well. Incidentally, have you ever used any silicon bakeware? Those silicon jelly pans are getting very popular here in India and I've always wondered if they're any good.
Susan, it was in the middle of the oven, and I've tested the temperature earlier and my oven generally runs true, though it does have some hot spots. Thanks for the toasted slices idea, I'll do that with the leftovers tomorrow. I remember reading on lottie+doof about this idea of coating a slice in sugar and then toasting it gently, so the sugar forms a thin caramelly crust. Now I can't wait to try it.
My mango curd doesn't have eggs. It's more like what we'd call a custard in these parts. I boiled a glass of milk and added a custard powder slurry (2 tbsp custard powder + enough milk to thin it out) to it. This was cooked till the mixture thickened. Then I stirred in four tablespoonfuls of sugar and let it cool. (I adjust the sugar quantity depending upon the sweetness of my mangoes. Since this is the beginning of the season, they are still very tart) After this cooled, I blended it with the flesh of two pureed mangoes, and served it dolloped over slices of pound cake.

When you baked the cake, was it on a high rack in the oven? In conventional ovens, I believe the heat may be higher at the top. And have you checked temperature accuracy of your oven? In previous discussions, people have mentioned that ovens can have 'hot spots.' Another thought -- if the cake was cooked through, you could have toasted slices to serve. I like the outcome! (Is the mango curd made like a lemon curd, or should you share your recipe?)
April 4, 2013
Yay! sounds yummy. what kind of pan did you use? I noticed when I use a darker colored, heavier loaf pan, my pound cakes brown incredibly fast.
April 4, 2013
So I did exactly that. Put it back in the pan, tented the top with foil, and then baked it at 170 C for an additional ten minutes. Then I took it out of the pan but the inside crust was still more beige than brown. So I baked it for an additional ten minutes that way, upside down, on a cookie sheet, till the whole crust browned. That was probably not a good idea, because the cake turned out dry when I finally cut into it.
Still, I served it with a tart mango curd and no one cared. :)
Thank you for all the advice!
April 4, 2013
Hope you were successful! I'm curious, how'd it turn out? Was the inside cooked?
I don't know what the right solution would have been, but I would've stuck it back in the pan, if possible, tented the top with foil so the top wouldn't brown anymore, and let it go for another 10 minutes or so.
Let us know!
April 4, 2013
Thank you! That's what I'm trying now, foil tent and everything. I'll report back on how it works.
Yeah, I live all the way around the globe in India, and it's 10 am and sunshiny here. :)
April 4, 2013
Here's what I'd do. Put the cake on rack and place the rack on top of a cookie sheet. If the top is as brown as you want it, tent it loosely with foil. Bake at the same temperature until it's as brown as you like. Other, more experienced F52 bakers may have some better suggestions... But who's awake right now?

Ring of Eternal Suffering (3.5e Equipment)
From D&D Wiki
This ring has no known design other than that of a ring. When worn it cannot be taken off for the ring becomes one with the wearer. The ring can leave a large scar on the finger when it was put on, a discoloration, and/or a lump from the ring. The ring then causes pain at random times with random intensity and for a random length of time.
DM notes[edit]
The time between the effects and damages resulting from the effects are totally up to you. The ring can not cause death, but can cause temporary paralysis in part of the body or in total.
Other notes Feel free to edit this and add anything that I missed

Here is some information via a facebook link from a concerned GP Dr George Forgan-Smith.
Thanks Dr Smith for contacting me and offering insight into this issue......
Dear Senator Lambie,
I just wanted to send a thank you for your ongoing care for Australians in particular the most vunerable members who are not able to pay to access general practice medical care.
There has been a lot of talk of a "new fee" with the underhanded changes to medicare and I have created the following video to help explain this to my patients.
This video is only 3 minutes long however I feel this would be something useful to your Tasmanian constituents explaining exactly how underhanded the government has been in blocking access to medical benefits for patients.
The video is hosted at facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152592113476198
Thank you for standing up for the Aussie battlers.

Last week my son Tyrell came up to me and told me that he was tired of the spirits in his room.
"I feel like I'm being watched all the time. I hear stuff moving all the time, and doors creaking and other noises. It's annoying!"
My kids are used to seeing spirit activity. Unlike myself, they actually see spirit beings here and there, and Tyrell has experienced things that have scared him in the past. He shut his sensitivity down a few years ago, but recently they are coming back. Thankfully he feels more confident with them and himself and for this reason they are probably coming out again.
So I did a refresher…kid style…on protection and taking control of his gift.
Here is some info on energetic protection. I do not promote any intentional invoking or communicating with random beings, opening portals via Ouija board, etc, I also don't buy into the "all is positive and rosy in the universe eyes wide shut" concept. There are energies and being of all frequencies in all dimensions, just as we have all types of people here in the physical world. We wouldn't invite a stray rapist into our home, just as we wouldn't want a negative entity in our personal space.
Here are some ways you can shield yourself from outside energy. If crowds or certain people cause you physical symptoms like headaches, nausea, "picky" feeling, or anxiety, these methods will work for you. Make your cleansing and protection a daily practice and it will become an automatic habit. People who do energy work, or are in the psychic field need to practice these techniques along with going to a regular practitioner to keep up their own auric health and chakras aligned, along with regular cord cutting and detachment techniques.
Psychic protection is important for anyone who is doing spiritual or psychic development work… including if you are participating in a meditation circle. Once you become adept at making contact with the higher realms… you will understand more fully the risks that you face… and will wish to prevent psychic attacks.
But many people at the beginning may be unaware of the problems, so are not protecting themselves adequately. Once you open yourself up to spirit, you should begin to take psychic protection measures to protect yourself from psychic attack. Many of us have innate psychic gifts that we are born with… and it is common for these gifts or abilities to just begin, with no warning.
The development of psychic abilities may happen to you somewhat unintentionally. If you have been using or wearing high energy crystals, they have the potential to magnify your psychic gifts… almost suddenly. Often though it is when you begin spiritual development, including participating in meditation groups. If you are going to start or attend a meditation group, they usually do a grounding and centering meditation, along with creating and opening a "circle".
Most of you may know that you have a guardian angel or spirit guide who looks after your well-being, and although they do their best to ensure that you are protected, you still need to take action to prevent any attacks that might come. Sometimes the type of problem that you may encounter may be a spirit, but sometimes it is not.
Often it is more like a negative vibration, released by other people. It may not be deliberate, and may not even be aimed at you. Occasionally someone is thinking a specific negative thought about you… and these have the potential to cause you problems, especially if this person is a gifted psychic, even if they don't know they are.
Energetic Protection
The first thing to do is to develop the habit of protecting yourself energetically every day, which doesn't have to be complicated. You can use your thought energy (which is very powerful) to visualize protective barriers around you, and of course you can use Reiki (if attuned), with or without the symbols. A sensible way to use these methods is to carry out one or more of them every morning, especially before leaving home, although you can also use them at any time you feel particularly threatened, such as when going into some stressful situation or if you have to deal with very negative people in either a work or social situation.
1. The daily energy cloak
In the morning, visualize a zip-up overall hoodie made of blue or gold light. Physically (or intuitively – visually) put it on and zip it up. Put on the hood. This light cloak is a cloak of protection, filtering out any negative energy from others, and protecting your own energy inside it. Intend at the beginning and as you put on the cloak that it be a light cloak of protection. This sets the intention for the protective energy to be around you. If you go to a mall, restaurant or crowded place, intend that the cloak be on, or put it on again to "recharge" it – basically you thinking of it will strengthen the intention for it to protect you.
2. Before bed
Ask that angels be stationed at all 4 corners of your room and/or around your bed, to watch over and protect you. Feel free to add angels around your house entryways, or wherever you wish to increase energetic protection. Do this every night before bed for a week and it's also good to make this a part of your daily practice anyway.
3. Calling on angelic help
Before leaving the house in the morning, ask that hundreds of angels be around you, guiding and protecting you. This is in tandem with the cloak. Archangel Michael is always there when you call on him for protection. You can also ask Archangel Michael to "vacuum" your aura and environment of all negative energy.
4. Energy Bubble
Imagine yourself in a bubble or eggshell of white or golden light which is filled with Reiki energy (if attuned), or white or yellow light, and intend that the edges of the bubble are permeable only by love, light, Reiki and positive energies. As a second stage to this method, you can also imagine and intend that it is closely surrounded by a fine mesh made of gold, and that this mesh is only permeable by love, light, Reiki and positive energies.
5. Violet Flame
If you ever feel really threatened, then do all of the above, and outside your bubble or eggshell of light filled with Reiki and covered with gold mesh, imagine and intend that there is a ring of fire (you may call it the Violet Flame, and invoke the help of Archangel Zadkiel or St. Germane), and outside that imagine and intend there is a shiny shell made of mirror or shiny silver or gold, with the mirrored/shiny side facing outwards. This effectively forms an energetic boundary around you, so that any negative energy sent your way will rebound back to its source.
6. Using Symbols on the aura
If you know the Reiki symbols, draw a Power symbol on each palm, saying its mantra 3 times,and then stroke and smooth as much of your aura as possible with your palms (about 15 cm or 6" away from your body), intending that the Reiki flows into your aura above, below and on all sides of you, to provide a protective shield against any negative energies.
7. Shielding using symbols
Another beneficial way of using the Power symbol is to draw it large in front of you and step into it, saying its mantra 3 times. Imagine being wrapped inside the Power symbol, so that it is in front, behind and each side of you, and intend that the Reiki protect you from any negativity or harm.
Some information is taken from http://www.reiki.org

Protection from negative energies: black kyanite, black obsidian, black onyx, black tourmaline (transmutes to positive energy), bornite, celestite, citrine, elestial crystals, jet (absorbs negative energies), kunzite, peacock ore, quartz and smoky quartz (especially in healing).
Protection for children: agate (especially blue lace agate and green moss agate), jade, malachite, ruby and mother of pearl (for newborn infants in particular).
Grounding: agate, Apache tears, bloodstone, boji stones (Kansas pop rocks), brecciated jasper, candle quartz, carnelian, cuprite, dalmatian jasper, fluorite, garnet, hematite, obsidian, salt, smoky quartz, tiger iron (mugglestone), topaz and unakite.

Is Yogurt the Magic Potion for Life?
We've all seen them, The famous actress over 50, the sassy girls at the wedding, spooning up yogurt and dishing about the health benefits of the special bacteria in there. They promise good digestive health, as they chat collegially about certain, ahem, issues they are having, down there.
Probiotics, the bacteria that are being pitched to you so vigorously in these charming marketing tools, are a vast population of tiny organisms that populate your digestive tract. They are part of a huge growth market, in part because of these high powered sales pitches, and in part because of good science. Unfortunately, buying pills and powders, or eating yogurt, may not be helping you at all.
To clarify, yogurt is just one of the foods that contain live cultures. Fermenting of foods is a natural action that we have been employing for centuries, by basically allowing things to decay a bit, as the ambient microflora population goes to work, or by seeding the food with a chosen bacteria. Fermentation breaks down foods and makes them more digestible, liberating both flavor compounds and health giving chemicals that you would not have been able to get before the bacteria went to work. Examples include sauerkraut and kimchee, beer, wine, chocolate, miso, soy sauce, tempeh, sourdough bread, black tea, cheese, and more. In most of these foods, the fermentation is either halted by killing the live bacteria, by heating it (bread and chocolate) or greatly slowed by cold storage (yogurt and miso).
For more on fermented foods, check out Sandor Katz website:
Foods in which the organisms are live have always been associated with good digestive health. The gut is populated with colonies of bacteria, a number of which actually do the digesting for you. Yes, there are foods that you cannot break down yourself, but you have a friendly group of microbes down there to do it for you. This is the case with the indigestible starch chains in beans, called oligosaccharides. The only downside is that the bacteria digesting your beans for you give off some gas in the process, so it is actually them who give beans their musical reputation. The upside is that the more of these bacteria you have in the gut, the lower your risks of colon cancer, so maybe the toots are not such a terrible thing.
The science so far is pretty solid on a few things with probiotics. Lactobacillus helps with diarrhea and constipation. A few of them help greatly with dermatitis. Claims are made that they build the immune system, and it makes sense that they would, but it's still being studied. A big issue in all of this is that a study might find that a certain strain does something, but that is one of thousands and most yogurts don't tell you with that much specificity what is in there.
Still in the age of antibiotics being given to livestock, probiotics seem like a good way to keep your gut populated with the right bacteria in between onslaughts. And for the general population just looking to stay healthy, they can't hurt at all. But are all these little bugs something we should use to treat actual health issues?
Well, according to Gail Cresci, a dietitian and expert on probiotics from the Medical College of Georgia, Not Necessarily.
While ms Cresci is deep into the use of specific bacteria to treat specific imbalances, she cautions against a one size fits all approach. According to her, most of the supplements that people take are wasted, never delivering live cultures where they need to go. She cautions that antibiotics are a big problem for the gut, but also says something even more refreshing.
She says that what you eat to feed your bacteria is more important than supplementing. She recommends a balanced, real food diet, with 30% or less of calories from fat and less that 10% saturated, 25-30 gs fiber from whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and then some protein, preferably fiber rich plant sources like beans and nuts, and dairy if you can tolerate it.
So maybe it is less about buying powders and pills, and more about eating right? She must not be on the payroll of a supplement manufacturer.
So, eat plenty of fermented foods, especially with live cultures, to keep your internal populations flourishing, and to reap the many other benefits of fermentation. Vegans who don't want to eat yogurt can eat other live culture foods. Check out kefir and kraut and kimchee. Don't fall for ads that claim one brand of yogurt will save you. Eat a good, balanced diet that feeds your friends as well as you.
LOL – this is a great article! It does seem like many products and companies are getting trendy with claims on probiotics. Honestly though, before any thing about probiotics was really even "out there" and our little boy did suffer terribly from severe Eczema (which by the way I am glad to see you added something on dermatitis) and the only thing that helped him was his Belly Boost. This children's probiotic was recommended to me from my step-dad and I had never heard of them. It turns out that it was the best thing we could have ever chosen to give our baby. What a blessing!
Now I agree with you though about all the hype with yogurt. It is just crazy! Do you know how much yogurt you'd have to eat to get what just one supplement has? I would never be able to eat that much – and oh the calories. GAH! It is too bad that there are people who believe these claims really. But I am thrilled at all of the research going on with their benefits.
Great article, Robin. I've become a believer in the cleansing power of kefir in conjunction with a well-balanced diet. Plus, I just really like kefir's thick, dairy tang.
It's good to mix it up, isn't it? I put plain kefir on my breakfast every morning. And a spoonful of kim chee or a smear of ume plum paste is much tastier than sugary yogurt.

This summer will see the release of inFamous 2, transplanting Cole from the electric metropolis of Empire City to the shambling bayou town of New Marais. Inspired by the structure, culture, and music of New Orleans, New Marais provides a refreshing backdrop to the continuation of Cole's story (See our New Orleans-centric interview with the game's developers here). To help capture the feel of New Orleans, developer Sucker Punch enlisted the help of legendary drummer Bryan "Brain" Mantia and New Orleans-based funk band Galactic. We spoke to Galactic's drummer Stanton Moore and SCEA Music Manager Jonathan Mayer about the music of the game, its development process, and how it reflects the essence of New Orleans. Paste: The "Music of inFamous 2" video pointed out that many sounds are being drawn from unconventional instruments or regular instruments that are out of tune or have been otherwise messed up. As a drummer, how have you used this style? Stanton Moore: I used the opportunity to set up lots of different instruments that I have been collecting over the years. I had some Nayhabinghi drums from Jamaica and I set up one of the bigger ones on a cradle as a bass drum. I set up several Remo Mondo snares which have simulated calf heads. I set up a 10, 12 and 14 as a snare and toms. I also used a lot of LP micro snares and drum set timbales and used a lot of Pete Englehart percussion and bells as well. We came to affectionately call this the "Bizarro Kit". I played a lot of grooves that I have come to develop over the years but they all sounded different on this kit. This led to lots of other ideas as well. It was a very creative process. This process then led to lots of grooves that I was able to use for the current Galactic record that we were recording at the same time as some of the inFamous 2 sessions. It's been a very liberating experience and has opened up a lot of creativity in some of the things that I do in the studio now. Jonathan Mayer: Additionally, our PlayStation music staff collaborated on the project to get really strange in our approach to mic-ing and recording all the strange items that Stanton and Brain and I were using as percussion. We attached contact mics to pieces of junk or the bottoms of cymbals and piped them through guitar amps and did a lot of stuff like that. Some of the biggest 'percussion' sounds in the score came from little things like fingernails on an amplified tin plate and things of that nature. Could you talk about the "brutal" aspect of the music that is referenced in the video? Moore: The brutal aspect refers to playing large tom-toms in a very aggressive powerful manner. Jonathan Mayer would bring in string quartet pieces and I would improvise on the big kit which had three tom-toms, three floor toms, a 26 inch bass drum and very few cymbals. I would play in stark contrast to some of the lush string quartet pieces. This made for very interesting contrasting textures and was very fun to do. Mayer: With the kind of grooves Stanton is referring to embedded in our tracks we were also afforded a lot of flexibility in making the score adapt to the gameplay in realtime. At the editorial level we could always 'pair-down' or remove some of the more brutal elements bringing them in and out of the mix for a score that tracks the tension in the gameplay more. It's always easy to edit some of the brutality out of a track but if it's not there to begin with you're kind of lost when trying to hit those high intensity moments. Additionally, collaboration was mentioned to be a primary factor in the writing of the music. Could you talk about this process and how it affected the score? Moore: The collaborative spirit on this project was enjoyable for us. The Sony guys would bring in pieces and ideas and we would improvise to them and they would mix the pieces later. We also composed about 65 min. of music and they would cut that up and use it for their purposes as well. It was a very fun process and it's exciting to see the end result. Mayer: The best part about this project was not only how deeply all of our creative contributors (Galactic, Jim Dooley, Brain and myself) embraced collaboration but it became one of the focal points in everyone's development of themes and the like. For my part, looking back on the year or so that we were all composing and recording, I can't envision having achieved much of what we did without the team approach and spirit that everyone delivered on. What about the music of New Orleans has majorly influenced the music of inFamous 2? Moore: With us being from New Orleans we were able to tap into the vibe of the city and have it underlie everything that we were doing. When we heard that the city was going to be based off of a fictitious destroyed New Orleans we knew how to convey the vibe without making it sound like traditional New Orleans music. Having played video games, we could twist and alter and obscure the New Orleans vibe so that it fit in with the world of inFamous 2. Mayer: In addition to providing all their amazing composition, having the members of Galactic available as session players and contributors on the tunes composed by the rest of us gave a level of continuity to the project. They became our New Orleans consultants, so to speak! One of the major musical elements of New Orleans is the random live music that is always happening, such as dueling pianos and other street musicians. Will this have a place in the game, or is the primary focus of the music on just the score? Mayer: We've collaborated with the developers at Sucker Punch to actually have some street musicians in the world of the game. As players roam the city of New Marais they will occasionally encounter folks busking on a corner. We've also done a lot of work to try and incorporate the more esoteric and atmospheric feeling of walking around New Orleans into the game's darker ambient underscore. From the outset I thought that it would be really great to have that sense of haunting distant and often dissonant music wafting through the city. Are there any contributions from any actual New Orleans street musicians? Mayer: The actual performances in the game are all by members of the composition team although we did leverage Galactic's network of friends to record a few guests with Corey Henry of the Rebirth Brass Band on trombone and Kirk Joseph for the Dirty Dozen Brass Band came in and played some sousaphone, too. Could you talk about some of the different gameplay themes explored in the music? How does the music change between combat, exploration, etc.? Mayer: Scott Hanau on our PlayStation Music team has worked with the Sucker Punch team to develop a very sophisticated system for handling the music in the game. When players are in the 'open-world' free roaming gameplay state the ambient music relies on some very complex logic to play a collection of layered music in a manner that sounds very subtle and musical. That music can be interrupted by action music if the player is attacked as the game tracks a music tension value and there are thresholds set to dictate how all that happens. In the more scripted, story parts of the game things are laid out more like a film in that we spot and edit music for specific events. Since we can't know specifically how a player will approach a given situation we still use a lot of multi-layered, adaptive music to score these missions. Expanding on that, how about some of the major combat encounters? How was the music crafted to reflect the enemies? Is there one primary "enemy boss" theme or do individual enemies have particular themes? Mayer: Our general approach usually centers around having themes for the major characters and then having a lot of versions of these themes and devices pop up in a variety of cues. We don't typically set out to have music written for a specific battle but rather we try and inspire everyone to do a wide variety of things with their music in a range of intensities and then we respond to the organic nature of the game's development by editing and spotting the music appropriately. Cole's powers have transformed from just electricity, which is reflected in the electronic score of the first game, to the addition of fire and ice. How did the score transform to reflect this change? Mayer: That's a great question! Actually, the cities (Empire City in I1 and New Marais in I2) were the inspiration for the stylistic differences rather than Cole's power base. So, in Empire City, we had a very modern, metropolitan and industrial kind of city which led us to a place musically that leveraged more electronic and industrial types of sounds. We did a lot of musical things with non-musical objects. This time around, we have a place that has a very old world look to it and is being overtaken by the surrounding swamp so we felt it was very organic and spoke of wood and earth rather than steel and stone. So, we went a lot more 'organic' with our choice of instruments and had a lot of non-musical things done with musical object and virtuostic players doing things that were very unconventional with their instruments. Our string quintet was especially integral in this regard and a lot of the things in the score that sound like percussion are actually guys riffing on stringed instruments with guitar picks or bouncing their bows on their strings or slapping the backs of their fiddles. They taught us a lot about what they could do with their instruments too! Does the music change any depending on what powers he is using? Either immediately, with what powers he uses in the moment, or on a larger scale, as players lean toward one power type or another? Mayer: Not really. The music is more rooted in responding to the story and the level of tension in the moment than anything. Similarly, does the music change any to reflect Cole's morality choices? Mayer: This is a question we get asked a lot but the answer is kind of the same as above. I think, at the end of the day we're trying to have the music function in a more filmic fashion and track the subtext and the story whenever possible but also on a purely visceral level we haven't found a great way to accomplish this yet. Does Cole have an instrument that represents him? Mayer: No. We use melodic themes and motifs for the main characters (Cole, Nix, Kuo and Bertrand) but those motifs are played throughout the score by a variety of instruments. Have you written a theme for any of the characters? Mayer: Jim Dooley wrote the main themes for Cole, Kuo and Bertrand….Brain wrote a piece that became the goto theme for some of Cole's most heroic sacrifice moments and Galactic wrote Nix's music. Then, as we mentioned before, we all just had fun ripping each other off. Moore: We wrote a couple themes for Nix, both of which are used for her character in the game. A lot of the game involves fast motion around the city; have you factored that into your writing? Mayer: We do mix up tempos when we're writing to ensure we have the requisite variety in our bucket of material when Scott Hanau gets to the phase where he's integrating the music into the game. Then he's able to pick and choose what works best when the game is more finished. At what point was the game in its development when the music was being made? Did the music, such as the "creepy/haunting/off key" compositions have any impact on the game development-wise? Mayer: We wrote, recorded and produced over four hours of original music for inFamous 2….all of it completely live. This was an immense undertaking (like making four records) and we spent about a year from the time we first started recording until the game wrapped up. Sucker Punch as a developer has been EXTREMELY collaborative with us on a creative level. At the outset of the project we discussed how to make the score more emotional and one of the key things we asked them for were the moments in which to apply such emotion. They have done an amazing job of leaving the necessary space in their cutscene edits and creating dynamics in the intensity of their gameplay from mission to mission to allow us to succeed in this regard. Something a lot of game developers struggle with in my opinion is having the faith in their sound and music team's to latch onto those moments and applying the patience and pacing to a scene or section of a game that allows music to breathe and reach out to the player. I think in this manner we have done something that stands out as being much more than the sum of the collective contributions applied to the project. Tagsgalacticinfamous 2ps3sonystanton moore

We have been attending boatshows for more than 14 years, representing a variety of boat builders, from South Africa, South America, Thailand, China and the USA and we always get this one question: "What is the perfect catamaran?". Every manufacturer would have you believe that they have THE perfect catamaran and even though some come close, there simply is no such thing. Just like with a house, you will have to compromise or customize and even then, one always has to give up one thing to gain another. While choosing the right catamaran is a very personal choice, you can avoid some serious blunders by following these ten tips as a guideline.
Be realistic about your sailing plans. Is it your intent to live aboard, do mostly coastal cruising and spend most of your time at a marina or at anchor or are you planning to do long ocean crossings and perhaps sail around the world? A spacious charter catamaran like Lagoon or Leopard may be a great luxury live aboard boat with all the goodies like icemaker, watermaker, airconditioner and luxurious finishes, but it may be slower underway making you regret that choice if cruising long distances.
If you primarily sail on weekends or short trips, a rugged blue water cruiser like Catana or Discovery, with big rig and sails, may be more than you need. So be clear about what you intend to do with the catamaran and hone in on what is important to you right now. Why own and keep up a new expensive offshore catamaran when a smaller or pre-owned catamaran will do the job just fine
Most modern catamarans are beautifully appointed with freezers, fridges, water makers, corian counter tops and heavy wood finishes primarily targeting the charter market. While that is gorgeous, all that weight will no doubt influence the performance of the catamaran because the more weight that's added to a catamaran, the more the sailing characteristics of the catamaran is altered. With the catamaran sitting lower in the water with less bridgedeck clearance, weighed down with all the extra gear, the slamming and wallowing could be very uncomfortable in heavy seas and slow it down significantly. Performance catamarans like Catana or Outremer are built for speed with narrower hulls, lighter and high tech materials and of course cost a lot more than a regular catamaran like Lagoon or Fountaine Pajot which is purpose built for the cruising sailor. Speed is not as much of a factor. If crossing oceans safely and comfortably is what you want to do, be mindful of weight and design. If you are looking for a comfy spacious catamaran at anchor, go for wider hulls and open space. Application is key!
If you cannot afford the time it takes to sail and maintain your catamaran on a regular basis, it makes sense to place your catamaran in a charter management program like Dream Yacht Charter. There are many other great catamaran charter programs available and could potentially make financial sense for owners who are getting ready to live aboard but need a few more years to get their affairs in order. That way one can sail the catamaran as often as possible, while getting an income from charter. The revenue that is generated from charter far outweighs the wear and tear that occurs during the charter phase. When ready to embark on your adventure, you can do the phase-out with the charter company, do the annual haulout, and add all the toys like watermaker, SSB radio etc.
Some charter companies offer programs like "try before you buy" to accommodate prospective buyers. This is a great way to "seatrial" a catamaran. You can charter the catamaran of your choice, stay on it and sail it for a few days and figure out if this is indeed the catamaran for you. Living on a catamaran will give you a pretty good idea what you like or do not like about that particular catamaran and whether the things you dislike will be a deal breaker. Usually in this case the charter company will refund you the price of the charter if you buy the boat which is a great way to "learn" the catamaran.
Try and sail the catamaran in a breeze and some wave action to adequately measure the performance of the boat. It is simply not always possible and in this case the quality of your broker and his/her knowledge will have to be your guide. Even so, you will want to sail the catamaran to get the "feel" of it, how it handles, how the instruments are placed, whether you can easily reef sails and if the bridge deck clearance is adequate.
Most buyers are not experienced enough to make an informed evaluation of the condition of the catamaran on their own. Having a marine survey done by a qualified and accredited marine surveyor is buying peace of mind. A marine survey is a detailed inspection of a boat by an accredited marine surveyor to determine its current condition and seaworthiness and in particular to determine if the vessel is safe to operate in conditions for which it was designed. It will also give you a good insight into the maintenance aspect as well as the repairs to be done or likely to be required in the near future.
If you are inclined to buy a project boat because you have the skills and the time to work on the project yourself, be careful to not under estimate the time and money it will take to bring the catamaran up to the standard you would like and make sure that it is a fundamentally good design. The survey should give you a better idea of exactly what you are getting into with your boat purchase and help you learn what will be necessary to maintain the vessel in the future. Keep in mind that if your project boat looks like a project boat, the resale value may be significantly less, so be sure to do the best possible finishing, rewiring, plumbing etc. Many owners get discouraged after sometimes years of working on this project and finally give up. Unfortuanately, it is almost certain that you will probably not get your money back on the unfinished project, so be sure of the time you need to finish the project.
You have two choices when purchasing a catamaran:
However, by the time you bring the cat up to look exactly like the well maintained or new shiny cat, it will most likely have cost the same. The only caveat to this rule of thumb is if you have the technical skills to do the improvements yourself in which case you may be able to bring the cost down considerably.
We have been involved in some custom builds and it almost always takes longer and turns out more expensive than originally estimated. This is mostly because building molds are expensive and if used only once for your boat, you have to carry the cost of the customization. Also, because it is custom, owners tend to make several changes as the project progresses which takes time and money to implement. We advise that owners for custom boats add at least 20% more time and money to a project like this. The owner should also be aware that he most likely will not get back what he put into the project when the time comes to sell because the catamaran is not widely known.
We all tend to think that bigger is better, however when it comes to sailing a catamaran, or any boat for that matter, one should keep in mind one's physical capabilities and sailing skills. Sailing skills can be learned as we have proven at our seaschool with total novices who have become ocean voyagers. It is best to buy a catamaran for you and your sailing partner in the 40-50ft range that is rigged for single handing with electric winches and a self-tacking jib if possible. This will give you more flexibility and control. One caveat though, South African yachtsman Geoff Hilton-Barber is blind and he managed single handedly to do an ocean crossing, so don't ever let a disability stop you!
While we can use these ten tips in general to make an informed decision, we should be mindful that there are no hard and fast rules. The purchase of a cruising yacht is probably one of the biggest investments the buyer will make in thier lifetime so it makes complete sense to ensure that they have the very best information going into the transaction and remember, it is as much an emotional decision as anything and one has to guard against getting too invested. Work with a buyers' broker such as Catamaran Guru™, members of the International Yacht Brokers' Association.

In Business Together
RDÉE Canada, the Community Economic Development and Employability Corporation (CEDEC), and the main federal economic development departments and agencies, under the leadership of Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC), form a collaborative governance structure, whose objective is to ensure participation by all key economic development players in Official Language Minority Communities (OLMCs). It is called the Economic Action Network (EAN).
The EAN is in charge of implementing the Framework for the Canadian Plan for Economic Development of Official Language Minority Communities (OLMCs).
The EAN communicates its steps forward and is calling on Canadian entreprises to get involved with it and create jobs and grow the Canadian economy via its website: In Business Together.
The Economic Action Forum
The EAN organized its first Economic Action Forum, which brought together more than 150 leaders from businesses and communities across the country.
Attendees were able to participate in workshops, share best practices, exchange and obtain tools to better understand emerging trade trends, the added value of bilingualism, the importance of sustainable development, skills development, and travel and tourism development, in order for small and medium-sized enterprises to be able to seize opportunities to access international markets and benefit from business opportunities that arise.

As technology is evolving, there is increasing demands of the software. The software is a set of instructions which are used for running an application. There are many different methods of developing a software but the best method is one by which you have the software which has high functionality, reliability, usability, portability, efficiency, and maintainability.
For developing a software, each developer may use a different set of the algorithm and hence the size of the program may vary. A small program is not always the efficient one. It could be a case where a code of 3 lines work more efficiently and quickly while the code of 10 lines is bit slow and visa versa.
If you want to have the best quality and high productivity software, then all you need to look for an experienced software development firm. For your software development, you may contact professionals at http://dicosoftware.com/en/.
As the way of each developer vary, same is the case of development he follows. There are different software development models along with various features by which you can get your software built. These are as follows
Waterfall Model
It is the first and most basic software development model which could be used for the development purpose of your software. This is one way approach to software development that is if you have completed one part and started with the next then any changes made in the previous part would have an effect on whole software.
Incremental model
In this type of software development model, the software development part is further subdivided into smaller projects and hence simultaneous development starts. In this model, the testing part is done after completion of each part. In the end, when all the parts are completed, all of them are combined and final testing is done.
Spiral model
In this development model, the development process is done in a sequential way. In this information is gathered, all possible risks are analyzed then the development and testing take place. If the software does not pass the testing phase then the whole working cycle starts from the starting.
A software development is a bit complex and challenging task .If you are hiring someone for your software development process, then you need to be sure about their experience and working techniques for getting the best results. You can check here and know how you can hire a great software developer.

October is National Health Literacy Month – a time to reflect upon the importance of understanding health care lingo as it pertains to you and your insurance benefits.
According to a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education (2006), more than 90 million Americans have basic or below-basic skills for handling health information; however, experts also contribute this to the lack of responsibility placed on the organizations and health professionals to provide easily accessible and understandable information.
Poor health literacy has led to higher rates of hospital readmission, misuse of medication(s), poor management of chronic disease, and other complications. Moreover, research from the University of Connecticut estimates health literacy issues are costing the U.S. economy as much as $238 billion a year!!
If you or someone you know struggles with understanding their health care information, here are a few tips to ensure that communication improves in the future:
- Prior to any doctor's appointment, make a list of your symptoms and when they started, as well as any medication you're currently taking.
- Always ask questions if something is unclear.
- Request any necessary contact information in case you have questions or experience problems later on.
- Ask for written materials in plain language.
Although a significant gap still exists between how health professionals communicate issues and how their patients understand them, more is being done to resolve this matter. One way is the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' National Action Plan to Improve Health Literacy—click here for a plan summary.
At Compass Rose Benefits Group, we make every effort possible to ensure the information our members receive is clear and concise:
Health insurance is often a dry and technical topic that can be hard to make sense of, yet health insurance coverage is easily one of the most important things people should know about. From the newsletter to member letters, I strive to ensure that our members understand all of the communications we put out."

How big is your premium? – comparing UK and EU pig prices
Since June, AHDB has been reporting that UK pig prices have fallen behind the EU average price. This represents a significant change from last year when UK prices averaged almost 30p/kg higher than EU levels. These conclusions are based on analysis of the reference prices published by the EU Commission, which are intended to provide a like-for-like comparison between prices in different countries. But do they really do so?
Before answering that question, it is worth pointing out that the EU Commission actually publishes three sets of reference prices, for pigs graded S, E and R. The latter only has a few countries contributing and is dominated by Italy. However, most Member States contribute to the S- and E-grade prices. Traditionally, comparisons have been based on the E-grade price, as publication of S-grade prices only began in 2014. However, given that over three-quarters of UK pigs are S-grade, this might provide a more meaningful comparison. In reality, though, there is little difference in the gap between UK and EU prices, as both UK and EU S-grade prices average around 3p/kg higher than the E-grade prices.
When comparing GB prices with those in the EU, it is also worth remembering that the UK reference price includes pigs from Northern Ireland, where prices are typically lower. We estimate that if it was based on prices in GB alone, the reference price would be 2-3p higher than the current UK one.
The main issue when comparing prices across EU countries is that the reference prices are 'gross prices', before deductions or retrospective bonuses. In some countries, such as the UK, significant amounts can be taken off the price received by producers, such as for transport, meat inspection, classification and levies. In other countries, some or all of these are paid for by processors.
Furthermore, in some countries, such as Denmark and France, many producers receive annual bonuses from processors, typically where they are producer-owned co-operatives. As these bonuses are not paid until the end of the year, they can't be included in the gross price reported each week. Therefore, the reference prices for these countries understate the true price received by producers – in Denmark, this can amount to nearly 10p/kg in some years.
AHDB is currently undertaking work to understand the impact of these bonuses and deductions on the reference prices and, hence, on the gap between UK and EU prices. However, we can use data from the InterPIG group to estimate the effect. Although the group does not cover all EU Member States, it does include most of the main pig producing countries. Based on the group's data, in 2015, GB producers received around 26p/kg more than the EU average for their pigs, after accounting for deductions and bonuses. This is around 2-3p less than the premium reported by the UK reference price.
In other words, the reference price comparison appears to overstate the GB premium (or understate the deficit) by around 2-3p. However, this is not the full story. The GB/UK price includes premium pigs, mainly outdoor-bred. These face much less competition from EU pork than 'standard' indoor-bred pigs. Based on comparisons between the APP and SPP, these premium pigs will inflate the reference price by around 3p, on average.
Based on this initial analysis, it appears that when comparing EU pig prices with those for standard GB pigs, the UK reference price should be reduced by an estimated 5-6p/kg to provide a more valid like-for-like comparison. This estimate will be refined further once we have completed further analysis. Nevertheless, it would mean that for 2016 to date, GB and EU prices were roughly on a par, on average, and since June, EU prices have been even further ahead of GB ones than indicated by the reference prices.

One of the first curated books of Australian mobile photography, the publication is the result of a nation-wide competition seeking photographs of Australian suburbs shot and processed on mobile phones. Held during October last year, the Instaburb competition was facilitated by the photography-sharing social media application Instagram. The images included in the book were selected from over 2,200 submissions across Australia.
Held in Melbourne on Friday 13 April at the headquarters of internationally-renowned magazine Dumbo Feather, the book and corresponding one-night exhibition featured 50 photographs from 35 Australian photographic artists, capturing slices of suburban life in cities and towns all across the country.
Instaburb was created by mobile photographers and active Instagram users, Oliver Lang and Misho Baranovic.
Instaburb is proudly sponsored by Blurb, Carter Digital and Dumbo Feather.

Feb. 20, 2004
By Blake Twisselman
The Santa Clara
It's funny how things can change in the course of a year.
Feb. 21, 2003: As the West Virginia Mountaineers and Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles took to the courts in Clemson, S.C., the intensity in the featured number one singles match began to intensify. On one side of the court was Tech's hard-hitting German Gernot Fischer, who claimed the first set by a score of 7-5. On the other side of this tension-filled court stood West Virginia sophomore Eric Kochanski who stormed back with a 6-3 win in the second set to even up the match.
The two sweat-soaked players forged deep into the third set. Tension built up as Fischer fought off multiple match points to claim a 7-5 victory. As the two players walked slowly towards the net to shake hands after the match, surely the last thing that crossed their minds was that they would become doubles partners at the Mission Campus only months later.
"We still joke about that match," Fischer explained. "And I still make fun of (Eric) once in a while for losing those match points."
Despite the common bond of their prior competition, the two transfer players took considerably different paths to reach the Silicon Valley this season.
Fischer, a senior, grew up in Freising, Germany before coming to the United States to begin his collegiate tennis career. The 6-foot-1-inch red-head played number one singles all three seasons for Tennessee Tech, earning Ohio Valley Conference honors during each season. After the end of his junior season, Fischer acquired permission from Tennessee Tech to transfer to another university.
"I was contacted by him through e-mail just after he received his release from Tennessee Tech," Santa Clara Head Coach George Husack recalled.
Fischer did independent research on various schools in California based on their academic and tennis reputations, realizing that Santa Clara might be the perfect place to spend his senior year.
"I wanted to experience something else and I really wanted to come to California," Fischer said. "I contacted (Husack) and a couple of other coaches, but he took care of me so I ended up here at Santa Clara."
Fischer has been a critical element of the Santa Clara tennis team this season, compiling a 5-3 singles record at the number one singles position against some of the nation's fiercest competition.
"He can pretty much play with anyone," Husack mentioned of his ace. "He's never gonna get blown off the court. He has a big serve and we have worked with him this season on coming up to the net more often to win more easy points."
Kochanski wound up at Santa Clara after a series of unusual occurrences. The Canonsburg, Pa., native was forced to transfer after West Virginia dropped their men's tennis program to satisfy Title IX provisions, which mandate that men's and women's sports must receive equal funding.
Husack became aware of Kochanski's availability by way of West Virginia's Head Coach.
"I met their coach when we played against West Virginia a few years back and he mentioned that they had an animal who was playing number one for them. It was really kinda lucky that their program got dropped."
Kochanski was all set to transfer to Virginia Tech before he got a call from Husack and decided to visit the Mission Campus, despite little prior knowledge of the school.
"All I knew about Santa Clara was that Steve Nash played there," Kochanski admitted. "I knew that they had good soccer teams, but I didn't know much about the tennis program except that they were ranked. I was definitely going to go to Virginia Tech before George (Husack) called me. I took a trip out here and I really liked it. It seemed like a good fit and I really liked the team and the coaches. And I especially liked (Santa Clara's) schedule and the nice weather."
It was here where Kochanski and Fischer reunited for the first time since their three-set thriller in Clemson.
"The moment I saw (Kochanski), I remembered him," Fischer said. "We basically became good friends right away."
When Coach Husack formed the doubles teams at the beginning of the season, he slated Fischer to play with senior Erich Chen and Kochanski to team up with junior Taylor Bedilion. Husack paired up Fischer and Kochanski just in time to play in the ITA Regional Tournament.
"They both have big serves and they have really good chemistry," Husack explained. "They gel really well out there on the court."
Kochanski realized the pair's chemistry almost instantaneously as the two began playing doubles together.
"We complement each other very well," said the junior. "We know where each other is going, and we mesh really well. It's kinda weird because even though we didn't know each other coming into this season, once we started playing together it felt like we already did."
Fischer echoed his partner's sentiments.
"(Kochanski) is a lot like the doubles player I played with last year. I know where he's going on the court and he knows where I'm going. We don't really have to talk too much about what we're going to do out there."
As the Santa Clara men's tennis team fights through their difficult schedule this season, Fischer and Kochanski will have their sights set on improving their national ranking and qualifying for the postseason tournament by defeating other quality doubles teams.
"We're finally starting to play the way we're capable of," Kochanski commented. "So we feel like we can compete and make it to the NCAA Tournament."
Doubles tennis is the ultimate game of experience and precision, with both partners depending on a shared knowledge of each other's game and court movement. So as Fischer and Kochanski achieve success on the courts this spring, Bronco tennis fans should truly appreciate where these two transfer players have come in just one season at Santa Clara.
It isn't very probable that either Fischer or Kochanski would have ever imagined they'd be a nationally-ranked doubles team as the two shook hands last February in Clemson. But then again, a lot can change in a year.

No medals on the final day of competition but major disappointment.
The Team Katas were the first events today and there was major frustration as both Male and Female teams lost out in the narrowest of margins. The Male team of Connor, Chris and Stephen faced Germany i their opening round and both teams performed Jion. The 5 judges went 3-2 to Germany. The German team went to the pool final where they eventually lost meaning there was no repechage call for England.
It was a similar story for the Female team of Aimee, Kate and Rebecca. Facing Turkey in their opening round they too lost out 3-2 after both teams performed Bassai-Dai . The Turkish team somehow made the pool final where they lost to Germany but went on themselves to gain a bronze. You have to roll with the decisions even if they seem rather bizarre.
Following the disappointment of the team Kata events, there was to be even more disappointments as the Female U21's came out to fight.
Rio Smith competed in the over 60kg event and faced Turkey in the 1st round. Unfortunately the Turkish competitor beat Rio to every punch and win the fight 8-0.The Turkish fighter made the pool final but lost out entering repechage herself.
Alice Goudie competed in the under 60kg event and was another 1st round casualty. Alice faced a Danish fighter who was sharp and fast. Alice just didn't fight to her usual standard today and it was the Danish girls who was scoring the punches. Alice eventually lost 3-0. Like Rio's fighter the Dane made the pool final before losing.
Carla Burkitt competed in the U53kg event. Carla had a 1st round bye before facing a Bosnian fighter in the 2nd round. Unfortunately Carla suffered a 4-1 defeat. The Bosnian made the final this time which allowed Carla to compete for bronze via repechage. The 1st round of repechage pitted Carla against France but for Carla this was to be her only repechage round as the French fighter won 2-1 in a close contest.
The Male U21's soon came out and were determined do better.
Ryan Lambert competed in the over 78kg and faced some big opponents. His 1st round saw a tough and bruising encounter with Macedonia. Ryan won through 7-2 after scoring a few points and receiving a few extra points from contact warnings. The 2nd round saw Ryan face Scotland but this time Ryan lost out 3-1 after extra time after the scores were initially tied at 1-1. Unfortunately the Scot failed to progress to the final in a familiar story.
Alex Sell fought in the U78kg event and looked in good form as he won his opening round fight 4-2 against his Danish opponent. The 2nd round saw Alex face Estonia and a tight contest saw Alex through with a well earned 1-0 win. In the 3rd round Alex faced host nation Serbia. Initially going 2 points down Alex fought back to level the scores as the fight then swung both ways. The end saw a series of warnings go both ways and the last one went against Alex which saw him just lose out 6-5. Very unlucky. The Serbian then lost the next round which was the pool final.
Gavin Bailey fought in the U68kg event and like Alex suffered defeat in the 3rd round. Initially beating Romania 4-1 in his opening round he then went on to draw 0-0 with his Belarus opponent in the 2nd round. The fight went into extra time with Gavin scoring 2 points to go through. The 3rd round saw Gavin face an Italian opponent and once again the fight went into extra time following a tied 3-3 score line. There was no score at the end and the dreaded judges decision was used. 2-2 but with the ref opting for the Italian Gavin narrowly lost out.
The Italian won the pool final which saw Gavin handed a repechage lifeline. Unfortunately Gavin couldn't quite grasp it as he lost 2-1 to a Slovenian opponent.
The U21s came so close, they fought with heart and soul but it was not to be. This has certainly been a championships full of highs and lows but again the Juniors have medalled at four Europeans in succession now. Our Thanks to John DeBono as head of delegation who has been great sorting out lots problems from delayed passengers to hospital visits. To Mohindar, the squads Doctor for all his help and advice and looking after the squads health. Thanks to Jane DeBono & Debbie Sell who acted as chaperones for the squad. Thanks lastly to National Coach Wayne Otto OBE and his Assistants Natalie Williams and Jonathan Mottram. All the hard work of the National Coaches working with the squad is paying off the squad is looking stronger and better with each championships under Wayne's Management. Next stop the Senior Worlds.

In 2006 CoolBeanz and King Ray was cooking up one hell of a musical gumbo collaboration and somehow we never got to taste the finished product. Twin towers is on of those mixtapes that never happened, but the files are still intact from what we hear. Well… we STOLE this out of CoolBeanz's archives being that he samples every blue moon now and Ray pops in on the mic just as often. Here's to the days when these two guys would randomly make a classic song together.

Author: The Food Allergy Foodie
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour + 10 minutes to rest
Serves: 4
1 whole roasting chicken
10 garlic cloves, peeled
1 large bunch fresh thyme
1 lemon, halved and juiced
Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
Kitchen Twine (optional)
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Remove the whole chicken from the packaging. Some whole chickens include the liver and neck in a separate pouch inside the cavity; remove this and discard if you don't want to make broth. If you want to make broth, reserve this for later use.
- Wash the chicken, making sure to rinse the inside cavity. Pat dry with paper towel.
- In a roasting pan, drizzle about 1 tablespoon of oil on the bottom of the pan. You don't want standing oil, but enough to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Peel 10 cloves of garlic.
- Juice one lemon. Keep the lemon halves, as you will put them in the cavity of the chicken.
- Wash the bunch of thyme. Take half of the thyme and chop finely. Reserve the other half of the bunch of thyme.
- Place the chicken in the pan, breast side up. Salt and pepper the inside of the cavity.
- Using a knife, gently lift the skin off the chicken. You don't want to fully detatch the skin, but find little pockets that you can insert the garlic cloves into. Scatter the garlic cloves throughout the chicken and if you have any left over, place inside the cavity.
- Using a basting brush, brush olive oil over the entire chicken.
- Lightly pour the juice of one lemon over the chicken.
- Sprinkle the minced thyme over the chicken. Salt and pepper, to taste.
- Stuff the cavity of the chicken with the lemons, remaining thyme, and garlic. If you have kitchen twine, tie the chicken legs together.
- Place the chicken in the oven and let roast 30 minutes. After roasting for 30 minutes, use a pastry brush or baster to baste the chicken with the juices from the pan. Continue roasting for another 30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 165.
- Let rest 10 minutes before carving.
- You can put the cooked garlic in a bowl and use it as a garnish for the chicken or use it in your mashed potatoes.

It's not at all uncommon for commercial photographers to have multiple Internet personae – not personalities. In my world, I have two very distinct online identities: one for my commercial work and one for my newfound iPhone photography work.
These public personae, or web "imprints," are as different as night and day. They speak to different audiences, in different languages and tones. And of course, each persona has divergent marketing, branding and promotional goals.
It's been widely chronicled through social media channels that I've been infatuated, even obsessed, with iPhone photography, more popularly called "iPhoneography." Amidst this compulsion, I sort of lost sight of my commercial focus, which is why I turned to my good and trusted friends at Agency Access to get me commercially refocused.
I gave the keys-to-the-kingdom to image consultant Amanda Sosa Stone and asked her to make me proud. She did indeed! She and Campaign Manager Pro designer Jaime Hernandez decided that my commercial hub, JackHollingsworth.com, should live on Rob Haggart's "A Photo Folio." Amanda and Jaime, my designer at Agency Access, chose a template that improved the user experience from my old site by cleaning up the navigation, selecting a typeface that complements my brand and carefully selecting images that reinforce my strengths and styles.
I live to create art and I want to continue to be hired to do so. But I want to be an artist, not a marketer. I know what I want but keep too busy to play in both arenas. I want to make art and continue my commercial travel work, so to accomplish both I finally asked for help – and got the swift kick in the butt I needed.
With just a cursory glance at my new site, you quickly notice professionals at work. Amanda Sosa Stone is an image genius. Not only can she edit, she has strong client and design sensibilities. She knows how to tell stories, which is very important; the new commercial-picture economy is driven by stories, not images – stories fueled by authentic, compelling personalities and processes.
(I digress, but speaking of commercial work and understanding client desires, check out the Agency Access/PhotoShelter report, "What Buyers Want from Photographers." It's a must-read for commercial photographers promoting to professional buyers that will save you hours of wandering in search of your brand, and get you focused in a hurry.)
When you're a one-man shop like me, it's painfully difficult to stay focused, especially on marketing efforts. I feel strongly that I am viable to the commercial markets again. My work has always been strong, but my marketing was left to be desired. Now I have a platform to show off my work. This is solely due to the support and TOUGH love I got from the diligent and disciplined support of my Campaign Manager Pro team. They give average photographers above-average personae and push shooters from good to great. They challenge image-makers to dream, and dream big! This humble photographer is in the debt of his Campaign Manager Pro team for work that's gone above and beyond.
This isn't the end – but just the beginning of what is to come from me…marketing wise.

Frank Ramsey, an All-American at Kentucky and member of seven NBA championship teams with the Boston Celtics, died Sunday. He was 86.
Ramsey's death was announced by Kentucky, where he was a part of the Wildcats' 1951 national championship team and a three-time All-American. The school said he died of natural causes.
The 6-foot-3 guard was selected by the Celtics in the first round of the 1953 NBA draft and began his professional career one year later. He averaged double figures in eight of his nine seasons and 13.4 points http://www.baseballofficialproshop.com/arizona-diamondbacks-c-691_692.html per game for his career. His No. 23 jersey is retired by Boston.
The question for Lin has not been about his on-court contributions but whether he can stay healthy. Lin has played in only 37 games since signing his deal in Brooklyn because of a left-hamstring injury in 2016-17 and rupturing his right patellar tendon in the first game of the 2017-18 season. With the emergence of Spencer Dinwiddie and the acquisition of D'Angelo Russell, Lin is the odd man out.
The Nets might not be able to swing a good deal now, but if both players can stay healthy, they should have value when it comes closer to the February deadline, particularly if Brooklyn is heading to the lottery and a playoff team is looking for established veterans.
Against a Villanova, you could put him on [national player of the year point guard] Jalen Brunson or [Julius Erving Award Arizona Diamondbacks Jersey winner small forward] Mikal Bridges, who's 6-8, or anybody in between, McDermott said. He would chase [St. John's guard] Shamorie Ponds, who had the ball in his hands all the time, or guard [Butler's] Kelan martin or [Xavier's] Trevon Bluiett, who they'd run off a million screens.
Besides having the versatility to defend several positions, Khyri's got the versatility to defend a lot of different actions. Sometimes, it's as simple as keeping the ball in front of you. Other times, it's being there on the catch, or dealing with a lot of Kenny Golladay Jersey screening action. That takes vision, and it takes anticipation, and Khryi prepared himself for all of it by watching tons of film. The more you know what's possibly coming, the better you're prepared for it.
Another thing http://www.lionsnflofficialprostore.com/YOUTH+KENNY+GOLLADAY+JERSEY Thomas is prepared for is how he'll be utilized at the next level. As well as he shoots, he's not likely to be a team's No. 1 scoring option. He'll serve a utility function, playing more than one position, and, especially, guarding more than one. That's why Thomas' name has turned up as a first round pick in numerous mock drafts.
