Hey all, I'm curious if anyone has any idea how to process out these reflections from Alnitak... I'm using an ASI1600mm pro cool and an 80mm refractor with a 300s exposure.https://i.imgur.com/mycuMHO.pngMaybe a synthetic flat?Thanks very much for any thoughts about how to correct this, I have a fair bit of data with this problem.
For the mask try RangeSelection to grab middle brightnesses (you don't want the background or the core of the big star) and then multiply that mask by the original image. Cheers,Rick.
Could you elaborate on what the multiplication achieves?

Group Camps On The
The park also offers three group camps (click here for group camp layout). Camp Number 1, which can sleep up to 150 people, and Camp Number 2, which sleeps 30, are located close together near the beachfront. A nearby swimming pool is available for guests at the three group camps and lodge. Great children activities.
Visit Fontainebleau State Park Cabins page on St Tammany Parish site.
These modern camps on the beach are perfect for the whole family. Nice screened in porches and stairs leading down to the water. The water in this area is shallow anywhere from 6 inches to 2 feet. You have a chance to catch the famous blue crabs that are a favorite with the local people. All you need is a chicken neck on a string and a scoop net. Take it slow and easy or the crab will take off! You can also catch them with a round drop net with a chicken neck tied in the middle. Leave your net down for about 10 to 30 minutes and there will be a good chance you will catch a crab. We boil our crabs in a hot seasoning here in Louisiana. Most all grocery stores carry some type of crab boil.
Camp Number 3 is located in another part of the park and can accommodate 65 people. A fishing pier with freshwater fishing is available at this camp. All group camps include dormitory sleeping areas and fully equipped kitchens.
Picture below is inside the kitchen/dining room.

Jun 11, 2007 — When the Israel Baseball League plays its first-ever game on June 24, YU alumnus Dovid Green wil be there, playing the infield for the Petach Tikva Pioneers. Yeshiva College junior Aryeh Rosenbaum will take his place on the field the following day with the Bet Shemesh Blue Sox.
At the inaugural player draft that took place on April 26, Green was the 59th player drafted out of the 60 named that day. (In a symbolic gesture, number 60 was baseball legend Sandy Koufax.)
Mr. Green, a graduate student in psychology at Columbia University, practiced with the YU team—which, he said proudly, is now an NCAA team—where coaches Norman Ringel and Howie Blitz treated him "like family."
Mr. Green, who hails from Newton, MA, and who helped form the YU baseball team in his junior year, said he dreamed of playing professional baseball "since I was a little kid, but I couldn't figure out how I could both play for the Boston Red Sox and remain an observant Jew."
So when the opportunity came along "to play professional ball and be the same person I am, I realized I could fulfill my dream," he said.
While the 42-game, three-month IBL season will no doubt be taxing, "it will be the best summer job I have ever had," Green joked before his departure, noting that games aired on Israeli television will be simulcast on the Internet so Americans will be able to share the excitement.
Mr. Rosenbaum—a member of the YU baseball team this past year—attended IBL tryouts in Hinsdale, MA. He had to wait until the college baseball season was over before if he accepted the invitation to join. "If I had joined the league, it would have made me ineligible to play on YU's team because the NCAA doesn't allow professional athletes to compete in the college division," Mr. Rosenbaum said.
He chose the Bet Shemesh Blue Sox, he said, "because there are lots of Americans in [the town of] Bet Shemesh who will identify with me and support our team." The fact that their colors are white and blue, like the YU Maccabees, was another draw, he admitted.
The pre-med student remembers citing "professional baseball player" as his dream job in his tenth-grade economics class, only to be told by one of his friends, "Orthodox Jews can't play professional baseball."
"Well now they can," Rosenbaum says. "And in Israel, no less."

Main Question or Discussion Point
I read on NIST CODATA that electron mass is a fundamental constant. I take from this that proton mass is not fundamental. I also read it is possible that proton-electron mass ratio may vary. So I wonder how proton mass is measured or derived. I have no training in physics, however in studying a way to describe electron and proton as superconducting electric current shells I find a ratio of 1860.308707, and this ratio makes possible an equation describing elementary charge (q). From what I read the possible ratio variation is not that large, but it makes me wonder.

College credit in high school: Doing the math on costs
Marguerite Roza and Caitlin Brooks
December 2017
In this analysis Marguerite Roza and Caitlin Brooks examine the actual extent of savings (if any) tied to taking college classes in high school by investigating the costs of providing college credit in high school for models in three states: Florida, Georgia, and Ohio. Authors examined costs paid by public dollars, in addition to costs borne by students and families (private dollars) then compare those costs to the costs of attaining credit after graduating high school in those same states.

HA NOI (VNS) — The Ministry of Transport is preparing to open a new flight path connecting Ha Noi and HCM City.
The new flight path, approved by Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung late last year, aims to serve increasing air traffic on the country's busiest route.
Chief of the Civil Aviation Authority of Viet Nam Lai Xuan Thanh said the new flight path would run parallel with the current route. The distance between the two flight paths would be about 30 kilometres, he said.
The route was designed to serve northbound flights from HCM City, while the current flight path would be used in the opposite direction, he said.
Statistics from the agency showed that the number of flights was rising 8-10 per cent annually, and the north-south flight path accounted for 70 per cent of air traffic in the country.
In the 1980s, there were only a few dozen domestic and international flights a day. Now, the number is up to 1,250 flights each day.
Additionally, Viet Nam is also a gateway to the Asia-Pacific region, where air traffic is forecast to see a three-fold increase by 2030.
The agency also said air traffic controllers working in Ha Noi and HCM City had to deal with an average of 30-35 flights per hour. Such a high frequency poses risks to flight safety, especially during bad weather conditions.
"Now is the time to make a change and open a new flight path," Thanh said.
The long-awaited decision would also shorten travel times and save on fuel costs for airlines operating on the route, he said. — VNS
High-quality education ecosystem contributes to improving the quality of human resources for Viet Nam

Forgotten Fragments
Sarah-Jane Cook
At The Vanishing Point - Contemporary Art
23 April – 3 May 2009
South Australian artist Sarah-Jane Cook unveils a body of work entitled Forgotten Fragments stemming from a collection of everyday notes and lists collected over a period of thirteen years. From the mundane to the bizarre, Cook has reconstructed and decontextualised the notes, lists, reminders, tallies, jots and messages by presenting them as embroideries on doilies, handkerchiefs and canvases in a gallery setting. Forgotten Fragments investigates the marks left by human interaction, either written or verbal and the transitory words and pictures that are no longer with us.
Drawing on personal experiences as an individual of mixed origins Cook has been drawn to investigating the day to day activities, beliefs and rituals of others around her, predominantly addressing universal notions of ethnicity and its impact on one's own sense of origin and how time and place can influence the life of an individual.
Sarah-Jane Cook graduated with Honours in Visual Art from the University of South Australia, Adelaide in 2005. She is currently undertaking an artist in residence program at Petersham Town Hall under Marrickville Council's Local & National Artist Residency Program.

beady little prize - part 1
These beads are from 2 different multicoloured necklaces, neither of which I liked much in their entirety, but I did have a yearning for some beads in the brown register, to go with my brown boots and a few specific wintery dresses. I pulled them apart and separated out the beads I thought would be nice together.
Finished product was put together while I sat on the couch watching tellie one weeknight last week. Photo of finished product to follow.
skirting the issue
This skirt is the first wearable thing I ever sewed - five bazillion years ago, with Ambiguity's help. later, I took up the hem because I wasn't sold on the length, printed on some of the leftover fabric, covered these buttons with it, and hey presto - detail. Wore it last week for the first time since the remodelling.
very bunny
This little softie is the completed version of one I posted earlier while still in progress. She is a funny little bunny, with button eyes and cotton thread stitching, with recycled bed linen straight from the 1960's.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step, Lao Tzu wrote. For Tom Affleck, the journey that would take him to the creation of SchoolBOX began with a notebook and a pencil. His inspiration for SchoolBOX, a non-profit organization whose main mandate is to build schools and provide educational materials to poor children in Latin America, came to him by chance on a business trip to northern Nicaragua in 2006. Upon leaving, he handed out a few pens and notebooks he had on him to some kids. One of the parents said to his little girl– her name was Sandra, he found out later– "Now that you have a notebook and a pencil, you're able to go to school".

This quick but poignant encounter was the fateful moment that started it all. SchoolBOX's beginnings were humble and brimming with challenges. Today this young organization has brought not only school supplies to thousands of children in Nicaragua's rural areas and it's built many schools as well, but it has also brought them hope, motivation and the possibility of a much better future.
Getting there wasn't easy. Tom had the support of his mom and a small group of friends from the small community of Almonte– where he comes from– who helped him start and build the organization from the ground up. Through various small activities they managed to raise some funds. Their first task, remembers Tom, was to go out to poor communities in "chicken buses"—very old yellow school buses—to hand out educational supplies in several schools. "We didn't have a master plan," remembers Tom, "just a very intense desire to help these kids get an education."
Once they realized Tom's perseverance and his genuine desire to help the children, friends and family in Almonte gave him and SchoolBOX their unconditional support. The organization grew little by little, at a slow but steady pace, and not without facing many obstacles. They found great supporters amongst Nicaraguans and were able to establish a network of trustworthy individuals, amongst them Ronald Chavarria, who today occupies the position of Director of Operations within the organization. Ronald and his family's help and support have been crucial to the growth and development of the organization.
SchoolBOX works hand in hand with Nicaragua's Ministry of Education. They help them identify priority areas in need of schools or where children live in extreme poverty and badly need school supplies. Providing school supplies had been SchoolBOX's only mission at the beginning, but they soon realized there was a greater need to build schools. Some communities had been waiting upwards of 20 years for a school to be built, and the sense of urgency proved greater when they saw there were kids who took their lessons under a tree because they lacked an appropriate building. The need was palpable.
Presently, SchoolBOX provides ongoing support in the communities where they build schools, by handing out school supplies each year to every kid after they've finished building the school. That way, they keep tabs on how the Ministry of Education continues to provide a salary for the teachers they employ at the schools. "This is how SchoolBOX differs from other organizations," says Tom. "It's a joint effort along with the local community (where the schools are built) and the Ministry of Education. The community provides the land and labour, the Ministry of Education pays the teachers and they're responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the schools and SchoolBOX pays the engineer and the construction company and provides the building materials."
They now have an engineer, two construction companies and several contractors on payroll, who travel wherever SchoolBOX starts a school construction project. They also have the help of groups of Canadian volunteers, who travel from Canada for two weeks every month from February to August to work side by side with the local communities building schools. These people also play the role of ambassadors in Canada, since upon their return they tell others of their experiences, which in turn motivates others to help in any way they can. Tom has discovered that the most important role these groups play, however, is motivating the kids in the communities where the schools are built to continue with their schooling beyond the 6th grade, encouraging and inspiring them to not give up and to continue beyond their primary studies.
"Almost 50% of Nicaraguan kids don't complete their education," says Tom. The main focus of SchoolBOX, he mentions, is for the kids to complete their primary education or Grade 6. "If we encourage them to finish elementary school, the possibility that they'll continue on to high school and even go to university is higher. Our main objective right now is to remove obstacles so that they receive at least their primary education," he says.
In the 6 years that this organization has been around, they've built 28 schools so far. They're hoping to start projects in Honduras this year. Their growth as an organization continues and today the work SchoolBOX does is recognized not just in Almonte, Ottawa and Toronto, but also throughout Canada. Last summer their work came a little more into the public light thanks to Cycle for SchoolBOX, a promotional effort by Ilan Levy, a SchoolBOX volunteer, who cycled through the entire country hoping to bring awareness to the work the organization does and to raise some much needed funds.
Their strength as an organization is made all the more evident because of the valuable work of its Board of Directors, whose members have the experience and joint capabilities to guide it wisely and provide ongoing support. As SchoolBOX grows, they are able to provide a stronger and better vision of their future and what they hope to accomplish not just in Nicaragua, but in other countries as well.
The experience, Tom mentions, has been immensely satisfying, not just because of the work they do but also on a personal level. The time he's spent in Nicaragua has given him many positive and unforgettable experiences. "I love the food, the "gallopinto" (a rice/beans mix), the people—the best resource Nicaragua has; their generosity and integrity. I've learned so much. I met my wife, Sarah, there, while building a school. It's been a very positive experience for me. This is where I became a Christian, because people's faith in God is so strong there. The experience has been such an amazing gift for me, to have the opportunity to help the kids and work side by side with people who want and work for the same cause," he says.
He admits he hasn't had the opportunity to work closely with the Hispanic community in Canada. "I know there's a lot of Hispanics here who believe in the work we do and would love to collaborate with us in some way," says Tom. "The thing is, I don't personally know many Hispanics here. Maybe now we could work together building some schools. This is a great opportunity for us Canadians to give these kids the chance to break away from poverty, and for me, doing this along with the Hispanic community in Canada, would be very important," he concluded.

I've been having a lot of conversations lately, mostly with myself, about the nature of 'Good'. I don't mean good in an ethical or moral sense, but in an aesthetic sense.
Specifically, what is the difference between Good Art and Bad Art? Can art be bad? Isn't it all just subjective anyway?
I said to myself, It's Got to be Inherently Aesthetic.
Perugino, 'christ delivering the keys of the kingdom to saint peter'
Good Art uses methods which lend themselves well to a sense of beauty. These are techniques that an artist can employ, such as the Golden Ratio, or Leading Lines, or Complimentary Colours, etc. These are tools which, when put to good use, cause the viewer to feel something good.
And yet… there are plenty of things that use these techniques and that I would not consider to be Good Art. Plenty of Michael Bay's movies are technically very good, but they make me feel sick.
So then I said to myself, It's Not What It Looks Like, It's What It's About.
Good Art intends to portray emotion x, topic y, and thought z, and the consumer of the art feels emotion x, topic z, and thought z,
But then, why wrap it up in art? Why not just go around telling people exactly what you think? Why do we wrap up the intention in subterfuge? What is the benefit of subtlety? Why try to express an idea as a piece of art, instead of as a lecture or a speech?
So then I said to myself, It's A Combination, Of Course!
Steve McCurry, Afghan Girl
Good Art is both inherently aesthetic and sure about what it's trying to say! Duh! Not only is it expressing an emotion, or highlighting an idea, but it's doing it in a way that is also pleasing to the eye on a technical level.
Ok. Great. Sure.
But what about Good Art that isn't either of those things?
Let's stop for a moment and look at this
Jackson Pollock, Vivid Anomaly
This is a painting by Jackson Pollock. It's not very pleasing to look it, it's just a bunch of lines and blobs, random colours flying together with no reason or meaning, it's not trying to say anything, it's not expressing anything other than a frenetic energy of sorts, and yet it is Good Art.
Because, I said to myself, It Has To Take Us Somewhere New
Philippe Halsman, Portrait of Salvador Dalí
A lot of modern and postmodern art isn't considered art by Joe Public, because they say: I Could Do That, or, My Four Year Old Could Do That. But, of course, they didn't do that. And indeed their four-year-old didn't do that, either. Pollock did that. He brought it into the fold of our imagination. He was the first.
When you take something that is the first of its kind, it's very hard to explain, because there is nothing to compare it to. You can't say it's better or worse than other things, because it is unlike other things.
So Good Art Pushes Borders.
René Magritte The Treachery of Images
But then…. ah, but then I thought… Two Girls One Cup pushed borders, and that is not Good Art… No, sir… that is not good anything…
And then I thought, after I washed out my mind, that even IF something DID satisfy some sense of aesthetics, while conveying a thought, feeling, or idea, AND managed to push the borders of what is known AND was accessible to the public in a way that changes things – would it even get picked up?
The world of art dealers and galleries is corrupt beyond salvage, to the point that Fine Art is now hoarded as an investment, rather than bought and sold for their Good.
I bought some art today from helenagrimes.com, a local artist with bucket loads of talent. I think her work is aesthetic, expressive, and, indeed, at times it pushes the borders just a little on what we look for when we look for art. It's probably never going to be bought and sold for 445million dollars. Sorry. But I'd rather have some Grimes hanging on my wall than some dead painting by some dead painter.
Because at the end of the day, it really is individual. If you like something, like that you like it. Stop trying to explain everything to everyone. You just end up thinking about Two G-, no, enough, enough of that…
And anyway, stop analysing other peoples work: go out there and make some of your own. That's where the gold lies. It's not about the Art. It's about the Creating.

I love peppery arugula and it makes a great pesto when blended with olive oil, pine nuts and parmesan. I addd mushrooms and sugar snap peas to my fresh pasta to make a flavorful meatless dinner. You can snap off the stems of the snap peas and then pull string that runs the length of the pod if you desire. This doesn't bother me so I don't bother with the step. If you like mint, you can add 1/4-1/2 cup mint leaves to your pesto for a nice change.
What to buy (serves 2-3):
- 2 cups arugula
- 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 shallot, diced
- 1/2 pound sugar snap peas
- 2 cups white button mushrooms, diced
- 10 ounces fresh fettuccine pasta
- mint leaves, optional garnish
What to do:
- combine arugula, juice of 1/2 lemon, parmesan, salt and pepper, olive oil and toasted pine nuts in a food processor or blender until well combined
- add butter to a pan over medium heat
- once butter is hot add garlic and shallots, seasoning with salt and pepper and stirring occasionally for 3 to 4 minutes or until shallot is softened
- add sugar snap peas and mushrooms and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until peas are bright green and mushrooms are lightly browned
- meanwhile add pasta to a pot of boiling water, stirring gently to separate noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente, drain and reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water
- add cooked pasta, 1/4 cup pasta water, pesto and vegetables to the pan you used to cook the vegetables, stirring gently to combine
- season with salt and pepper and garnish with parmesan and mint leaves

Congressman Jeff Flake may be the poorest member of Arizona's Congressional delegation, and he may have flaked on his support of comprehensive immigration reform, but he's still a standup guy -- a class act from whom other Arizona politicos (we won't name names...just kidding -- specifically, Governor Jan Brewer) could learn a thing or two.
The same day Brewer was sticking her finger in the face of President Barack Obama as the two argued on a runway at the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport, Flake held former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords' hand as she formally resigned from Congress yesterday.
Hours earlier, as Obama gave his State of the Union address on Tuesday night, Flake, who was seated next to Giffords, stood with the congresswoman each time she wanted to join her fellow Democrats in applauding the president -- even as Flake's Republican colleagues remained seated.
Flake didn't stand because he necessarily agreed with the president, he stood to help Giffords, who is still recovering from a gunshot wound to the head, and often needs assistance to do things most of us take for granted, like stand up.
"Gabby, obviously, still has some limitations physically and so I was supporting her," Flake tells MyFoxPhoenix (see video below). "She knew when she wanted to stand up and applaud and I just wanted to help her there...it was just an honor to be able to sit with her and watch all of it unfold last night."
Flake and Giffords, as we mentioned, are in different political parties. In fact, there was a pretty good chance the two would have run against each other in this year's Senate race (Flake currently is running for the Senate seat getting vacated by retiring Senator Jon Kyl. Prior to last year's Tucson shooting, Giffords was considered a likely Democratic candidate for the same seat).
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.
You have successfully signed up for your selected newsletter(s) - please keep an eye on your mailbox, we're movin' in!
Despite often disagreeing politically, Giffords and Flake are capable of disagreeing respectfully -- no fingers to the face, name-calling, or vitriol.
Perhaps if Brewer cutback on all the "scorpions for breakfast," and took a cue from leaders like Flake and Giffords, Arizona wouldn't have been humiliated yesterday by its bumbling, arrogant governor...again.

Christchurch, Dublin, today.
Eddie Gardner writes:
I am working on a project with Depaul Ireland, a Homeless charity that provides accommodation and key services to people who others have given up on, those with behavioural, self-harm and addiction problems. We plan to cultivate a series of small pop-up gardens to be planted in different locations across Dublin city throughout the spring.
The gardens aim to transform their surroundings into brighter, cheerful areas for the public. Gardens placed in dull and dark areas of the city in disrepair, that could benefit from brightening up. This idea, coinciding with the clocks going forward, is to mark the launch of Depaul Ireland's "Brightening Up Dark Situations" campaign.
And, some of the pop up gardeners:

Melanogenesis & How to Effectively Treat Pigmented Disorders
|The pigment melanin is produced in melanosomes by melanocytes, this is quite a complex progress. This process is called melanogenesis. The melanocyte interacts with endocrine, immune, inflammatory and central nervous systems, and its activity is also regulated by extrinsic factors such as ultraviolet radiation from the sun and many medications hormonal or otherwise.
To effectively treat pigmented skin disorders we need to fully understand the melanogenesis process and the different stages in it.
Most of the time the process is totally started by UVR (Ultraviolet Radiation) or exposure to the sun, in NZ our levels of UVR are extremely high – even in the winter. It is the main trigger for what is about to follow.
POMC (Proopiomelanocortin) A precursor protein that produces the melanin stimulating hormone (MSH), corticotrophin (ACTH) and β-endorphin. It is produced by the Pituitary Gland upon exposure to UVR. Once the melanin-stimulating hormone (MSH) is produced by the Pituitary Gland it starts to regulate the synthesis of pigment granules. MSH also regulates the concentration and distribution of melanin within the pigment-containing cells (melanocytes).
The next step in the process is one of an enzyme and a amino acid. Tyrosine and Tyrorinase. Tyrosine is a amino acid made by the body that is responsible for the formation of the melanosome. Tyrosinase, therefore is an enzyme of human tissues responsible for the formation of the melanosome and other pigments from tyrosine by oxidation.
The process continues with the building blocks of Melanin, this happens with Dopa and L-Dopa Phosphates. It is initiated by the enzy-matic oxidation of L-tyrosine L- dopa by tyrosinase, in a reaction that uses L-dopa as a cofactor. The "Melanin" has now been produced, this is what is responsible for giving our skin colour. This colour is broken down into two categories Pheomelanin which is Red and Eumelanin which is Brown.
The final stage is the transfer of the Melanosome, the melanin is darkened upon the
transfer of the Melanosome to the Keratinocyte. The distribution to the surface to the epidermis then starts.
So what should we be looking for in our products and do we need each of these things for the product to be effective?
It is important to look for ingredients that are inhibitors for these actions. To really effectively treat pigmented disorders you must stop the process happening at each stage.
Stage 1 – UVR – Protection with Broad Spectrum UVA and UVB Sun Protectant
Stage 2 – MSH Inhibitor – Sepiwhite (Undecylenoyl Phenylaline)
Stage 3 – Tyrosinase Inhibitor – Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Glucosamine, Lactic Acid
Stage 4 – Dopa and L-Dopa Inhibitor – Aloesin
Stage 5 – Melanosome Transfer Inhibitor – Niacinamide
Antioxidants to help prevent oxidative stress in the pigment formation process – Vitamin E, Beta Carotene.
Be sure to check other ingredients within the products, what are these actives in? Do they help with barrier function and repair? Are the cells getting what they need?

Statement | Biography | Resumé | Press | Links | Upcoming Exhibitions
Dena Lyons was born in southern Florida in 1980. In 1992 she was accepted to the prominent Dreyfoos School of the Arts graduating in 1998. Lyons was accepted to the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the fall, which she graduated from in 2001, with a concentration in painting.
In 1998, after graduating from The Dreyfoos School of the Arts and having been awarded a merit scholarship to the highly acclaimed Marchutz School of Painting and Drawing in Aix en Provence, Dena traveled to France to continue her studies and paint. The experience in Provence was both inspiring and educational and Dena knew she would return to France to paint after furthering her fine arts education. Dena then returned to the states having been accepted at prestigious School of the Fine Arts Institute of Chicago where she earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. After completing her formal education, Dena spent five years traveling the countryside of France, learning French, studying literature, art history and painting. For the past 6 years Lyons has maintained both US and French residency while continuing to pursue painting in France which is her primary residence and choice for living and painting. Dena is fluent in English, French and Italian.
The life and work of Dena in France and Monaco were subjects reported several times over the past few years in the Nice Matin. Dena is a member of the International Association of Fine Arts in Monaco. Dena received the mayor's medal of excellence for her opening in Beausoleil.
Her works of art are owned by respected collectors around the world.
Recently, she has spent much of her time working on projects commissioned in Chicago, London and France. Her works have been exhibited in Chicago at the Addington Gallery, Gregory Gaymont Gallery, MK Gallery, a solo exhibition at the Union League Club of Chicago and Robert Morris University. She is represented by the Marin Price Gallery in the Washington DC area. In 2012 Dena's works were exhibited at the Quai artists and Gildo Pastor Center in Monaco. In 2013, she was awarded a medal by the mayor of Beausoleil for her exhibition in the south of France. She also exhibited in the acclaimed Spectrum art fair in Miami, FL. Her works are included in the collections of the Dreyfoos School of the Arts, Nippon Steel and Château Bois Guilbert.
Her playful sensibility and choice of colors and brushstrokes reflect her adventurous journey through life.
Andre Derain and the Fauves influenced Dena and helped her to convey on canvas powerful impressions of the world she knows. The shapes and psychology of David Hockney and Alice Neel paintings greatly influence Dena.
In her most recent works which have received high acclaim, by using a simple object, a tree alone, Dena creates thoughtful and monumental works of art.

We all like to keep moving—to feel like we're on the go—and we crave balance in our lives. When you think about it, it makes sense that some version of a balance or motion board has been around for a long time. And why not? Balance boards promote several health benefits, and they celebrate both movement and fun.
Health and Wellness Benefits
Balance boards offer an astonishing range of therapeutic benefits to support overall health and wellness:
Physical: Balance boards help activate and improve our kinesthetic intelligence. You will notice improved balance and muscle tone when motion is a regular part of your day.
Cognitive: Simply put, we think better when we're active. We make stronger connections and produce more creative ideas, designs, and plans when we feel balanced and on the move. Working on a balance board can even improve your memory.
Emotional: Movement boards reduce anxiety and improve concentration to balance not only our bodies but also our emotions. The fact that they're fun doesn't hurt, either. When we surveyed FluidStance users about their experiences working on a motion board, we found that 83 percent feel happier, 76 percent feel more comfortable, and 66 percent spend more time standing.
Design, Development, and History of the Modern Balance Board
Although people have been trying to design the perfect balance device for centuries, the earliest use of balance boards was likely in the circus and other performance shows.
One of the most unique balance boards marketed during the 1950s was the "Paul Bunyan Balance Board." Made of wood and featuring a large comic sketch of the mighty Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox balancing themselves on boards and logs, this early balance board was marketed to "kids from six to sixty."
Here at FluidStance, we have a Paul Bunyan Balance Board of our own in the office.
Another modern balance board, created by the famous WWII pilot Stanley Washburn Jr., was inspired by his meeting with children on Africa's Gold Coast—the kids were balancing themselves on a plank and log. Washburn created his own version as a gift for his daughter in 1952, and the "Bongo Board" soon became a popular toy.
The balance board has come a long way from its start in the Big Top; it now has its place in classrooms, boardrooms, and living rooms around the world. Here at FluidStance, we landed on the design for our boards after several rounds of experimentation and prototyping.
"I have always believed that less is more," says FluidStance Founder & CEO Joel Heath. "This is true in how we approached the emotional, technical, and functional benefits and design of FluidStance's products. We spent a great deal of time simplifying the design while maintaining the functional performance to be a beautifully designed tool that would be worthy of a long workday. This included dozens of prototypes that were tested in a third-party facility to find the sweet spot of enough movement to matter, but not too much to distract you from your work. Within this process, we found that early balance boards were designed for a short workout and stretched your calf and Achilles. Great for a workout, but not for the long haul of a workday. In the end, we created new technology that is internationally patented to optimize movement that is similar to what you experience while you walk."
Today's Balance Boards Offer Something for Everyone
So who exactly are balance boards for? To put it simply, they're for anyone that craves movement. Athletes, students, and everyday folks have embraced the balance board as a great method for balance training, strength building, and physical and cognitive rehabilitation.
Sports fans and athletes find the balance board offers physical training that is unique and effective, especially during off-season. Adding one to your fitness routine adds a depth to your training and improves your kinesthetic intelligence like no other product.
Balance boards also resonate with kids (or those who are young at heart) who like skateboards, pogo sticks, and other movement-savvy products. They're even being introduced in classrooms worldwide to complement classroom design that's friendly to kinesthetic learners.
Office workers may be the ones to benefit most from the introduction of a balance board into their routine. Working on a board delivers movement that improves concentration and creativity, and a balance board pairs perfectly with standing desks. Companies are noting better team performance, and more productive meetings and creative planning, after introducing movement boards to the office.
In combination with today's popular stand-up desks and desks with adjustable heights, the balance board is a powerful tool for the office or the classroom. Visit our shop to see the variety of FluidStance decks designed to help you #keepmoving wherever you work or play.

Proper belt tension is necessary to ensure the smooth operation and longevity of your belt-driven components. Too loose and the belt may slip or even be thrown off of the pulleys. Too tight and the belt will cause excessive wear on the shaft bearings of the components it is driving. There are several rules of thumb for checking the tension on a belt without using a belt tension gauge.
Measure the distance from the centre of the alternator pulley shaft to the centre of another pulley that uses the same belt. This will probably be the water pump or the crankshaft.
Lay a straight edge -- like a carpenters level -- across the pulleys, over the belt.
Place the tip of a ruler against the belt, in the middle distance between the pulleys, with the ruler against the straight edge. Push down on the ruler and measure the gap that forms between the belt and the straight edge. If the pulleys are seven-to-eleven inches apart, the belt should move 1/4-inch. If the distance is over 11-inches, the belt should move no more than 1/2 inch.
Adjust the belt by loosening the alternator mounting bolts with a ratchet and socket. The most common problem is that the belt is too loose. Pull the alternator away from the centre of the engine to tighten the belt. Hold the tension with one hand while tightening the bolts. Recheck the measurement.

Hi Imtiyaz,
first let me say that I have absolutely no experience with this, but used my Google fu to look up some information.
Does the machine work, despite the errors - or do you see actual problems? Because I see many references to similar messages, which could mean that i.e. the "read TPM error: 0x2" simply indicates "no data available" - IOW, no actual error, but a non-zeor return code.

Exclusive: UKIP Candidate Claims Jews "Engineered" the Holocaust
UPDATE: Crampton has now been suspended from UKIP.
Following an investigation by Stand for Peace fellow Colin Cortbus with The Brighton Argus, we can reveal that UKIP councillor candidate Anna Marie Crampton claims Jews organised the Holocaust. Further, she has urged voters to read the notorious forgery, the anti-semitic 'Protocols of the Elders of Zion' and suggests Israel was behind the Boston Attacks last week.
In statements made on the extremist website, Anna Marie Crampton claimed that:
Second World Wide War was engineered by the Zionist jews and financed by the banksters to make the general public all over the world to feel so guilty and outraged by the Holocaust that a treaty would be signed to create the State of Israel as we know it today. By the way, Holocaust means a sacrifice by fire. Only the Zionists could sacrifice their own in the gas chambers. No others, since you and I cannot sacrifice that which is not ours …
The Rothschilds are Zionists..there is a difference between Jews and Zionists. These Psychopaths hide behind and use the Jews. It was thanks to them that 6 million Jews were murdered in the War (along with 26 million Russians!). Read the Protocols of Zion, all you need to know is in there and it's in their own words.
Crampton also claims:
Our fiat monetary system was created to use America to bring up the New World Order and bring America to its knees to bow to Rome and the Zionist bankers
Anna Maire Crampton has denied that her statements constitute anti-semtiism, writing:
I am anti Zionist, not antisemit. I love the true Israel and the Jews, but I love the son and daughters of Ihsmel, who are also the children of Abraham. We need to defend Palestine by joining the true Jews…. thanks go to Alan Schiller for this info.
Time after time, conspiracy and anti-Zionist sentiment is revealed to be nothing more than thinly-veiled anti-Semitism. UKIP, to its credit, has expelled extremist and bigoted members in the past. They must also expel Anna-Marie Crampton.

Extra Innings: 08/16/07
Marz's thoughts: We have the Michael Vick situation in football…we have the Tim Donaghy situation in basketball…we have the gambling ring in hockey and now we have the Jose Offerman situation where he attacks the catcher and pitcher with a bat. When is it going to stop in the world of sports? Is our society getting to a point where self gratification is worth more than anything else? Whatever happened to sportsmanship?
P.S. – Man i wish the Phillies would have gotten Joel Piniero…then we could be printing out playoff tickets! haha
Cuch's thoughts: The Cardinals are tied for 4th in the NL in hitting this year with a .273 average. The pitching though is quite the opposite with only Houston, Pittsburgh, Florida and Cincinnati owning worse ERA's this year. The true running fast team could be in Toronto where the Jays own the best ERA by FAR over the last month at just 2.83. If there is a team that is set to make a run, it is Toronto!
P.S. – Bonds hit HR #759 last night. Can he reach 800 himself if he comes back next year? Nah – still too far away, but a final number of 785 is not out of the question!
2 Comments
The Offerman situation is inexcusable. Sure, tempers flair during a game, but the bat is NEVER to be used as a weapon. My prayers are with the victims. From what I've heard the catcher is in bad shape.
Somewhere along the line, sports in general forgot about sportsmanship and what it means to be a professional. The excuse "it's a different era", is complete ****. Style of play might change with time, but the professionalism of the ballplayer shouldn't.
Marz- Piniero? Who needs Piniero, we have JD "The Real Deal" Durbin… I laughed myself to tears when I read that he nicknamed himself "The Real Deal", when he was a Twins propsect. What a clown.
Hopefully he'll turn a in a "Real Deal" perfomance tonight against the Nats. Tonight's a must win game. It's not about winning every game, but every series.

It doesn't matter where the property is located. The answer to your question is that by law all real estate commissions are negotiable. The negotiation on a fair commission begins with the quality of the property, the size of the asset, the reasonableness of the pricing, the "hot button" features on the property that can be stressed, the cost of marketing, and the other things that make one property more desirable than other properties. It also helps to be the first, with the most to offer, that connects with the owner and to know what your competition has to offer in a particular area. Be sure to make the commission worth the work that you are going to have to put into the sale of the property. If you and the seller decide it is a fair commission, then it surely will be.Onward and upward John.... Rob BairdCommissions can range
some listings we take have flexible commission splits where the rate goes down as the sales price goes up. So assume 7% for improved properties between $500,000 and $1MM and then go down to 6% for $1MM to $2MM, etc. Keep in mind your listing broker is going to market the property to cobrokers, which bring a high percentage of buyers these days, by splitting the commission. So, in most cases your listing broker isn't getting rich.

Status Update (October 21)
Published: | Comments: 1 | Filed under: Development|
Finished the 3 things I mentioned yesterday:
- Added _make_magic_action and _make_magic_trigger to HasEventHandler. I moved the conversion behavior from magic_hooks to those methods, now you can use method overriding and inheritance to add custom conversion rules. (Oh, and I also renamed magic_hooks to make_magic_hooks.)
- Put actions in EventActions, and triggers in EventTriggers. Added docs describing how to write your own action or trigger classes.
- Simplified MethodAction. No more pass_event (it always passes), and no more rescuing ArgumentError, either.
I also merged the event_handler git branch into the dev-2.4 branch, and updated the NEWS file.
I'll have to look everything over, but I think it's done. I might do some extra fiddling around between now and the 24th, but I think I could release it as-is now.
oh, do post a small write-up on how to use the new features.. i am a bit lost on what magic hooks are all about…

Justine Kurland's show at Mitchell-Innes & Nash is called "Sincere Auto Care'. Every image features our love or dependence on cars. Ms Kurland hit the road herself and didn't come back from a cross country road trip until she had fully captured the underbelly of American car culture.
Using the documentary 'reportage' style of early Robert Frank, or following the lead of current photographic giants like Joel Sternfeld; she manages to present something new and fresh without any digital alterations or Photoshop tricks. They are straight up photographs she took at gas stations or parking lots. There are tattooed mechanics under the hoods, or deserted babies asleep in car seats.
The human element mingles with the machinery in narratives that suggest cars communicate sex, freedom as well as the bleaker mundane mode of getting around. The photos are displayed without glass and the back mounted, back glazed presentations provide a rich colour and texture.
As Kurland herself describes her loving record of the road "a place where beauty is found not because the world is beautiful but because it is beautifully described". With this body of work she marries the Utopian promise of America with the rusty well worn dystopian reality of our time.
Justine Kurland – Mitchell-Innes & Nash, NY – Until 11 October

In the words of Frank Sinatra "Love and marriage, love and marriage, go together like and a horse and carriage, this I tell you brother, you can't have one without the other". The same holds true when it comes to strategic and financial planning. Too often business have very detailed strategic plans (often too much detail) and no financial plan. Others have a financial plan or budget, with no strategic plan guiding it. In rare cases businesses may have both, however many times they are not in alignment.
Most companies often have strategic plans and no financial plans. In these situations, we usually see several issues. First the strategic plans are too detailed. Pages and pages of initiatives, opportunities, and other unnecessary details. In this situation, the plans are too daunting, causing anxiety and put in the drawer until next year. In other cases, the plans call for aggressive investment. With no clear financial plan, business again put then in the drawer because they do not know if they are financially viable or have clue on what it will mean to the business long term.
On the other side of the coin some businesses have budgets and confuse these with strategic plans. These businesses may hit their net income number, however often struggle to grow the top line. They are constantly cutting expenses to hit the income or cash target and not investing in the future. Shrinking your way to greatness may work in the short term but with no future vision the business may not have a future.
Finally, some businesses may have both, however many times the strategic plan was not used to create the budget. This will create a tug of war between budget and the strategy. That forces to business to choose the between the two creating confusion, missed opportunities, and ultimately a non-cohesive leadership team damaging the health of the business.
In a proper planning process the strategic plans drive the budgeting process. Strategic initiatives and other investments are included in the budget. This will provide three benefits; First, when the budget is complete, if the overall sales and income do not meet expectations, it allows the leadership team to take a hard look at legacy spending and make reductions in areas that are not driving growth and keep their strategic initiatives. Second, it will provide an accountability tool. With ongoing monitoring of your variances to budget the team will know when initiatives are not being completed. Finally, it will allow the plans to work together focusing the energy of the leadership team creating a healthy and growing business.
When it comes to strategic and financial planning just like the song say, "this I tell you brother, you can't have one with other".

The Volvo XC60 adds up to attractive all-purpose transportation. It's a smaller addition to Volvo's existing stable of XC70 and XC90 crossover sport-utilities. Volvo XC60 seats five and competes well with compact SUVs such as the Acura MDX, Audi Q5, BMW X3, and Mercedes-Benz GLK.
The 2011 Volvo XC60 gets some significant updates. Power increases slightly for all 2011 XC60 models. The 2011 Volvo XC60 line-up expands to four choices, including two racier R-Design variants with firmer suspension settings. The XC60 was completely redesigned for 2010.
For growing families, or active singles who want flexibility without bulk, the XC60 makes a lot of sense. The XC60 looks like a smaller version of the XC90, and it doesn't shout family-mobile. The XC60 seats four quite comfortably, five with a bit of coziness, and it offers more cargo space than nearly all its competitors.
The Volvo XC60 is not the sportiest vehicle among compact SUVs, but we found it handles well on city streets and highways. It's easy to park, particularly with the optional rearview camera. The XC60 rides comfortably, and its brakes are superb.
The standard 3.2-liter six-cylinder engine, now delivering 240 horsepower, is up to all the demands of daily driving, and it delivers the best value, in our view. The upgrade 300-hp turbocharged engine adds a bit of excitement for those who put a premium on quick acceleration. Both engines come with a well-tuned 6-speed automatic transmission.
Volvo's fulltime all-wheel-drive system works smoothly in the daily grind without a huge penalty in fuel economy, and it's truly welcome when the weather gets foul or on gravel or even in bumpy corners. Yet buyers who don't really need all-wheel-drive capability can choose an XC60 with front-wheel drive.
With all-wheel drive and 9.1 inches of ground clearance, the Volvo XC60 offers as much off-highway capability as most sport-utility buyers will ever need. It can handle some backcountry trails, and the computer-managed Hill Descent Control makes creeping down steep inclines more securely. With either engine, the XC60 can tow 3300 pounds, a snowmobile or personal watercraft.
Inside, the Volvo XC60 is attractively finished and pleasingly understated. Its knobs and buttons are easier to use than those in most of its competitors. The seating arrangement is flexible, and the cargo compartment has tie-downs and other useful accessories. It offers nearly all the features you'd expect in a luxury vehicle, including heated rear seats, rear-seat video and superb surround audio.
Volvo devotes significant resources to research aimed at improving occupant protection, and its reputation for safety engineering is largely deserved. The XC60 offers the full array of active and passive safety features, including standard City Safety. This braking package is programmed to stop the car independent of the driver when it senses an impending encounter with a car in front at speeds up to 18 miles per hour, mitigating crash impact or avoiding a rear-ender altogether. The XC60 is available with a full array of blind-spot, lane-departure and driver alertness warning systems.
Shoppers who put a premium on comfort, safety and value will find it worth a test drive.

we got back into town yesterday (4:30 am to be exact) after a wonderful mini-vacation in new york city. the purpose of our trip was two-fold - a postponed celebration of f & my 30th anniversary and to attend p's surprise 50th birthday party on saturday evening. with the exception of not having the opportunity to visit any blogging buds, the trip was pretty close to perfect. we spent part of friday at the metropolitan museum of art, we went specifically to check out the pierre bonnard exhibit. I love bonnard's focus on everyday life and his incredible use of color. other highlights of the met were the postcard collection of walker evans, the photography exhibit truth and illusion, and encountering jules bastien-lepage magnificant painting joan of arc. (by the way, there's a snap of this painting on my march 13 flickr set).
after viewing the works of bonnard and bastien-lepage, perhaps we had france on the brain. with hours before dinner and rumbling tummies, we made our way to artisanal and treated ourselves to a glass of wine and a delightful array of cheese.
our light repast at artisanal was the first of many incredible food experiences during this visit to new york. friday evening we joined p&k and checked out matilda, a relatively new restuarant which serves up a delicious fusion of mexican and tuscan cuisine. along with having wonderful food, maristella and esteban, matilda's chefs and owers, are just about the nicest folks imaginable. the restuarant itself is a feast for the eyes. if you are looking for a wondeful place to eat with reasonable prices, make sure you make your way to matilda!
well, that's all the time I have today - as you might expect I took a hundreds of photos. I just started working my way through them. I've organized the first day's pictures into a flickr set for anyone interested. click here to view a slide show of our first day.
another herstory milestone for this day in history: first public celebration of bat mitzvah, for the daughter of rabbi mordecai kaplan, is held in New York City on 18 march 1922.
