Toni Morrison, 2012
Knopf Doubleday
160 pp.
America's most celebrated novelist, Nobel Prize-winner Toni Morrison extends her profound take on our history with this twentieth-century tale of redemption: a taut and tortured story about one man's desperate search for himself in a world disfigured by war.
Frank Money is an angry, self-loathing veteran of the Korean War who, after traumatic experiences on the front lines, finds himself back in racist America with more than just physical scars. His home may seem alien to him, but he is shocked out of his crippling apathy by the need to rescue his medically abused younger sister and take her back to the small Georgia town they come from and that he's hated all his life.
As Frank revisits his memories from childhood and the war that have left him questioning his sense of self, he discovers a profound courage he had thought he could never possess again. A deeply moving novel about an apparently defeated man finding his manhood—and his home. (From the publisher.)

With her incredible string of lyrical, imaginative, and adventurous modern classics Toni Morrison lays claim to being one of America's best novelists. Race issues are at the heart of many of Morrison's most enduring novels, from the ways that white concepts of beauty affect a girl's self image in The Bluest Eye to themes of segregation in Sulu and slavery in her signature work Beloved. Through it all, Morrison relates her tales with lyrical eloquence and spellbinding mystery.
Born Chloe Anthony Wofford, Morrison's unique approach to writing stems from a childhood spent steeped in folklore and mythology. Her family reveled in sharing these often tales, and their commingling of the fantastic and the natural would become a key element in her work when she began penning original tales of her own.
The other majorly influential factor in her writing was the racism she experienced firsthand in, as Jet magazine described it, the "mixed and sometimes hostile neighborhood" of Lorain, Ohio. When Morrison was only a toddler, her home was set afire by racists while her family was still inside of it. During times such as these, she found strength in her father, who instilled in her a great sense of dignity. This pride in her cultural background would heavily influence her debut novel.
In The Bluest Eye, an eleven-year old black girl named Pecola prays every night for blue eyes, seeing them as the epitome of feminine beauty. She believes these eyes, symbolizing commonly held white concepts of attractiveness, would put an end to her familial woes, an end to her father's excessive drinking and her brother's meandering. They would give her self-esteem and purpose. The Bluest Eye is the first of Toni Morrison's cries for racial pride and it is an auspicious debut told with an eerie poeticism.
Morrison next tackled segregation in Sulu, which chronicles the friendship between two women who, much like the author, grew up in a small, segregated village in Ohio. Song of Solomon followed. Arguably her first bona fide classic and certainly her most lyrical work, Song of Solomon breathed with the mythology of Morrison's youth, a veritable modern folktale pivoting on an eccentric whimsically named Milkman Dead who spends his life trying to fly. This is one of Morrison's most breathtaking, most accomplished and fully dimensional novels, a story of powerful convictions told in an unmistakably original manner.
In Song of Solomon, Morrison created a distinct world where the supernatural commingles comfortably with the mundane, a setting that would reappear in her masterpiece, Beloved. Beloved is a ghost story quite unlike any other, a tale of guilt and love and the horrendous legacy of slavery. Taking place not long after the end of the Civil War, Beloved finds Sethe, a former slave, being haunted by the daughter she murdered to save the child from being sold into slavery. It is a gut wrenching story that is buoyed by its fantastical plot device and the sheer beauty of Morrison's prose.
Beloved so moved Morrison's literary peers that forty-eight of them signed an open letter published in the New York Times demanding she be recognizing for this major effort. Subsequently, the book won her a Pulitzer Prize. A year after publishing her next novel Jazz in 1992, she would become the very first African American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature.
Towards the end of the century, Morrison's work became increasingly eclectic. She not only published another finely crafted, incendiary novel in Paradise, which systematically tracks the genesis of an act of mob violence, but she also published her first children's book The Big Box. In 2003, she published Love, her first novel in five years, a complex meditation on family and the way one man fuels the obsessions of several women. The following year she assembled a collection of photographs of school children taken during the era of segregation. What makes Remember: The Journey to School Integration so particularly haunting is that Morrison chose to compose dialogue imagining what the subjects of each photo may have been thinking. In 2008, Morrison published A Mercy.
That imagination, that willingness to take chances, to examine history through a fresh perspective, is such an integral part of Morrison's craft. She is as vital as any contemporary artist, and her stories may focus on the black American experience, but the eloquence, imaginativeness, and meaningfulness of her writing leaps high over any racial boundaries.
• Chloe Anthony Wofford chose to publish her first novel under the name Toni Morrison because she believed that Toni was easier to pronounce than Chloe. Morrison later regretted assuming the nom de plume.
• In 1986, the first production of Morrison's sole play Dreaming Emmett was staged. The play was based on the story of Emmett Till, a black teen murdered by racists in 1955.
• Morrison's prestigious status is not limited to her revered novels or her multitude of awards. She also holds a chair at Princeton University. (Author bio from Barnes & Noble.)
Book Reviews
This haunting, slender novel is a kind of tiny Rosetta Stone to Toni Morrison's entire oeuvre…encapsulat[ing] all the themes that have fueled her fiction…In these pages Ms. Morrison eschews the fierce Faulknerian prose and García Marquez-like flights of surrealism that animated some of her earlier novels, adopting a new, pared-down style that enables her to map the day-to-day lives of her characters with lyrical precision.... Ms. Morrison has found a new, angular voice and straight-ahead storytelling style that showcase her knowledge of her characters, and the ways in which violence and passion and regret are braided through their lives, the ways in which love and duty can redeem a blighted past.
Michiko Kakutani - New York Times
Toni Morrison doesn't have to prove anything anymore, and there's artistic freedom in that calm. Her new novel, Home, is a surprisingly unpretentious story from America's only living Nobel laureate in literature.... This scarily quiet tale packs all the thundering themes Morrison has explored before. She's never been more concise, though, and that restraint demonstrates the full range of her power.... Home is unusual, not only in that it features a male protagonist but that it's so fiercely focused on the problem of manhood.... Are acts of violence essentially masculine, or are they an abdication of manliness? Is it possible, the novel finally asks, to consider the manhood implicit in sacrifice, in laying down one's life? What [Frank] Money eventually does to help his sister and to quiet his demons is just as surprising and quietly profound as everything else in this novel. Despite all the old horrors that Morrison faces in these pages with weary recognition, Home is a daringly hopeful story about the possibility of healing—or at least surviving in a shadow of peace.
Ron Charles - Washington Post
Nobel laureate Toni Morrison is known for novels in which female protagonists struggle to wrest control of their lives from an establishment bent on their destruction. Home, by contrast, tells the story of Korean War vet Frank Money, who returns from the battlefield plagued by visions of his friends' deaths and a disturbing episode that cuts at the roots of his sexual and moral identity. . . . Salvation awaits, however, in his tiny Georgia hometown.
Tim McDonnell - Mother Jones
Profound.... Morrison's portrayal of Frank is vivid and intimate, her portraits of the women in his life equally masterful. Its brevity, stark prose, and small cast of characters notwithstanding, this story of a man struggling to reclaim his roots and his manhood is enormously powerful.
Stephan Lee - O Magazine
Home's slim spine belies a fertile narrative imbued with and embellished by Morrison's visionary scope and poetic majesty. These traits expand on her long exploration of the suffering and striving born of slavery and segregation that are unique to the history of blacks in America. Conjoined in all her stories and richly illumined are the culture, traditions, talents, and triumphs of African-Americans as well.
Lisa Shea - Elle
In Pulitzer and Nobel Prize–winner Morrison's immaculate new novel (after A Mercy), Frank Money returns from the horrors of the Korean War to an America that's just as poor and just as racist as the country he fled. Frank's only remaining connection to home is his troubled younger sister, Cee, "the first person ever took responsibility for," but he doesn't know where she is. In the opening pages of the book, he receives a letter from a friend of Cee's stating, "Come fast. She be dead if you tarry." Thus begins his quest to save his sister—and to find peace in a town he loathed as a child: Lotus, Ga., the "worst place in the world, worse than any battlefield." Told in alternating third- and first-person narration, with Frank advising and, from time to time, correcting the person writing down his life story, the novel's opening scene describes horses mating, "heir raised hooves crashing and striking, their manes tossing back from wild white eyes," as one field over, the bodies of African-American men who were forced to fight to the death are buried: "...whatever you think and whatever you write down, know this: I really forgot about the burial. I only remembered the horses. They were so beautiful. So brutal." Beautiful, brutal, as is Morrison's perfect prose.
Publishers Weekly
Frank Money was damaged emotionally as well as physically while fighting in Korea, then returns home to an America as racist as ever. What saves him from utter despair is the need to rescue his equally damaged sister and bring her back to their small Georgia town, a place he has always despised. But thinking over the past both near (the war) and far (his childhood) allows him to rediscover his sense of purpose. At 160 pages, this is not a big brass band of a novel but a chamber work, effectively telescoping Morrison's passion and lush language.
Library Journal
(Starrred review) With the economical presentation of a short story, the rhythms and cadences of a poem, and the total embrace and resonance of a novel, Morrison, one of our national literary treasures, continues to marshal her considerable talents to draw a deeply moving narrative and draw in a wide range of appreciative readers...bound to be a big hit. —Brad Hooper
A deceptively rich and cumulatively powerful novel.... A black soldier returns from the Korean War, where he faces a rocky re-entry, succumbing to alcoholism and suffering from what would subsequently be termed PTSD. Yet perhaps, as someone tells him, his major problem is the culture to which he returns: "An integrated army is integrated misery. You all go fight, come back, they treat you like dogs. Change that. They treat dogs better." Ultimately, the latest from the Nobel Prize–winning novelist has something more subtle and shattering to offer than such social polemics.... A novel that illuminates truths that its characters may not be capable of articulating.
Kirkus Reviews
Discussion Questions
1. Why has Toni Morrison chosen Home for her title? In what ways is the novel about both leaving home and coming home? What does home mean for Frank, for Cee, for Lenore, for Lily?
2. The race of the characters is not specified in the novel. How does Morrison make clear which characters are black and which are white? Why might she have chosen not to identify characters explicitly by their race?
3. What is the effect of alternating between Frank's first-person (italicized) narration and the third-person omniscient narration through which most of the story is told? What is the implied relationship between Frank and the narrator?
4. Talking about the horrors of war in Korea, Frank tells the reader: "You can't imagine it because you weren't there" [p. 93]. Does the reader succeed in imagining it even though he or she was not there? How close to another's experience, even those radically unlike our own, can imagination take us?
5. How has Frank's war experience affected him? What symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder does he exhibit? In what ways does he suffer from survivor guilt?
6. In what sense can Home be understood as Frank's confession?
7. In what very concrete ways does Cee's lack of education hurt her? How might she have been saved from infertility had she understood the implication of the books about eugenics in Dr. Beau's office?
8. Why do the women who heal Cee have such contempt for "the medical industry"? [p. 122]. In what ways are Frank and Cee both victims of a medical system that puts its own aims above the heath of its patients? Does Home offer an implicit critique of our own health-care system?
9. What methods do Miss Ethel Fordham and the other women use to nurse Cee back to health? Why do they feel Frank's male energy might hinder the healing process? What larger point is Morrison making about the difference between feminine and masculine, or earth-based and industrial, ways of treating illness?
10. Frank doesn't know "what took place during those weeks at Miss Ethel's house surrounded by those women with seen-it-all eyes," only that they "delivered unto him a Cee who would never again need his hand over her eyes or his arms to stop her murmuring bones" [p. 128]. In what ways is Cee transformed by the treatment, and the wise counsel, that Miss Ethel gives her?
11. Both Frank and Cee were eager to leave Lotus, Georgia, and never return. Why do they find it so comforting when they do go back? What is it about the place and people that feels to Frank "both fresh and ancient, safe and demanding" [p. 132] and makes Cee declare that this is where she belongs?
12. How have Miss Ethel and the other women in her community learned not just to live with but to rise above the limitations imposed on them? What moral code do they live by?
13. Why does Frank decide to give a proper burial to the man killed for sport—and whose undignified burial Frank and Cee witnessed as children—at the end of the novel? Why would this act be emotionally important for him? Why has Morrison structured the novel so that the end mirrors the beginning?
14. The flowering lotus is a plant of extraordinary beauty, but it is rooted in the muck at the bottom of ponds. In what ways is the fictional town of lotus, Georgia, like a lotus plant?
15. Why is it important that Frank does not resort to violence against Dr. Beau? In what ways has Frank been changed by the experiences he undergoes in the novel?
16. Much has been written about racism in America. What does Home add to our understanding of the suffering blacks endured during the late 1940s and early '50s? What is most surprising, and distressing, about the story Morrison tells?

Now that back to school time is in full swing we are all looking for new things to feed our children that they will actually eat and that is easy for them to eat. Some foods may not be a big hit because they can be hard to digest. As a matter of fact there are lots of things in our children's lives that may be hard to digest.
I remember when I was pregnant with Miss Stalin, we did not have any feeling if she was going to be a boy or a girl. Genghis however knew from the second we told him we were pregnant that it was a girl. It was almost as if you could see the wheels turning as he thought about what a new baby in the house would mean to him.
"Will I have to share my toys?"
Yep, having a new baby meant having to share toys. And for a 5 year old who was an only child, this news was not easy to digest.
Moms look after their children's every need from the moment they enter the world. And as toddlers grow into preschoolers and beyond, moms continue the nonstop but all-important work of making smart, simple, nutritious food choices. Although it's not always easy, Kellogg's can help. Made with simple grains of rice, Rice Krispies are as easy to digest as they are to scoop up with small hands – making them a great simple food choice that is gentle on little tummies.
The Motherhood is teaming up with Rice Krispies to host a Twitter party to dish about simple, nutritious foods for kids. We'll be joined by special guest Dr. Laura Jana—a pediatrician and award-winning author who will share advice about choosing simple, gentle foods for young kids.
We are big fans of Rice Krispies cereal around here. I remember when Genghis was young I bought a box so I could share with him the 'talking' cereal of my childhood. He loved it and we had the following exchange that I will never forget.
Genghis: "Mommy, what is my cereal saying?"
'I don't know, what is your cereal saying?'
Genghis: "I don't know Mommy, I don't speak cereal!"
What: Some things are just hard for kids to digest. Rice Krispies® cereal is easy.
Join the conversation to win prizes and learn how you can make simple, gentle food choices for your children!
When: Wednesday, September 25 at 12 pm ET (the party will last one hour)
Where: We'll be on Twitter – follow the #EasytoDigest hashtag to track the conversation. You can see the details and RSVP via this Twtvite
Hashtag: #easytodigest
Prizes: We will be giving away five Rice Krispies prize packages including Rice Krispies cereal, a bowl, a placemat, a bib and a VISA gift card!
Will I see you there?

Arabic rap is increasing in popularity in the region. According to this wikipedia article, either the group DAM (from the Lod اللد) or MWR (from Acre عكا) where the first in this business. Personally, i am not a big fan of Arabic hiphop yet. However i am getting to like the group Ramllah Underground. Some of their songs have some nice expressive meanings, which is good.
Anyway here is a video clip of Ramallah Underground's "Nateejeh bala shugol" (result with no work). The video was apparently shot in Jordan (possibly Amman) because you could see the "كلنا الأردن" slogan on top of the door he exits from in the beginning.
Caution: there are a couple (not alot) of blant Arabic swears in the middle. Not a big fan of swearing myself.

Saturday, October 18, 2008
But maybe I'll stop telling them this after an incident the other day. Two students were in my office. One was a really nice guy with cerebal palsy. The other was a very attractive young woman who is recently divorced with young children. The three of us were swapping stories, and I learned that this woman gets no child support from her ex, but she loves to go out and get drunk--she appears to be making up for a youth lost to motherhood. She has no money, so she always insists that her friends pay.
You can probably see where this is headed. This girl starts flirting with the guy. He's eating it up and telling stories about what a tough guy he is--you know he hasn't been with a woman in years--and before you know it, she has given him her number, and they plan to go out with her friends the following night. Who do you suppose is going to pay for drinks?
Now I could couple this story with my recent observation that women love Obama--a man who sits in his peaceful way looking on the million babies aborted each year--or I could, of course, mention the Caylee Anthony case, but I'll just end by saying that I won't feel like praising women much in class next time.

Everyone's selfish, and there are extremes of selfishness in both genders. However, female selfishness doesn't usually lead to bodies, and naturally doesn't usually get punished.ReplyDelete

yup. women are more prosocial in that they don't do much of the really nasty antisocial things like murder. But they're just as *selfish* as men. Also note that since the optimum scenario for women's genes is raising a large brood to maturity, whereas the optimum scenario for men's is squirting in every woman in the world and running away, women have more of an incentive to behave in a way that keeps society together.ReplyDelete
Besides, you shouldn't make a group judgment about a class of people based on one example. That's like those liberals who say gender differences in math ability don't exist because their father's mother's uncle's nephew's former roommate is a female mathematician. ;)
On a slightly tangential note, check back with the kids in 20 years and see what the results look like.ReplyDelete

Not sure how this makes her a bad person, except for her being a bad mother for getting drunk so much.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous2:32 AM
That story was a little anti-climactic - quite frankly, getting free drinks strikes me as rather innocuous. I'm not getting why this woman is such a bad person either. I'm more concerned about this non-child support paying ex, since I suspect tax-payers are taking up the slack.ReplyDelete

I'm not convinced that's optimal for males. It seems to me a high number of hbd-ers have jumped aboard the hbd bandwagon simply in order to be able to take swipes at society from the cutting edge of sociology: you, conservative white man, you're deluding yourself thinking you have it made with your four bedrooom home and two kids and church on Sunday; face it, man, you're trapped; your genes are screaming to impregnate the whole block but you won't admit it to yourself; conservative prick, phony; pass me the bong.
- Anonymous9:06 AM
Actually, as Sailer has pointed out, conservative white men have more kids and hence are evolutionarily more successful. The Roissy types who run around boinking tend to use contraception to avoid getting hit with child support families. Really, the most successful from the evolutionary point of view are those big families out in the boonies with nine kids.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous1:03 PM
sfg, that wasn't my point. Why should we serve evolution? Evolution doesn't care about us, so why should we care about evolution? It's like cheering Economic Growth for itself rather than what it can do for us. Evolution may decide the winners in a demographics-is-destiny sense, but taking orders from evolution strikes me as a perfectly idiotic way to achieve the much sought after "good life."ReplyDelete
I don't mean to say we should igore evolution. I mean we should fit its findings to our purposes, not ourselves to its. The backwoods bumpkin with nine kids may "win," but surely the cultivated man with but two would be the better example to emulate. Some groups, I suppose, do play the firstest with the mostest reproductive contest and that, imo, should be sufficient grounds to exclude them from a society. For those of who do believe in government (and I certainly do, despite whatever "conservative" impression I may have given), I'm hard pressed to think of a more important role for government than to assume control of reproduction levels. (The need is urgent in Europe.)

ROFL. Three cheers for blindness of womens faults!
I have a cousin with cerebral palsy, which is not fun. His family has a little money. I figure that if one night he showed up at his favorite bar with some cute women and dropped a few hundred dollars on them in front of the regulars, he could lie happily to his cronies about what happened later that night for years, and he'd consider it money well spent.ReplyDelete

protein skimmer questions
I just upgraded my tank from a 10 gallon to a 300 gallon, and I bought a protein skimmer. My tank is about 2 weeks into the cycle and Ammonia is at 0 nitrites at 0, nitrates at 5 ppm. I just hooked up my protein skimmer and I saw no bubbles at all in the skimmer. Is this just because its a new tank? or is the skimmer faulty? it is a Hydor performer 1005 skimmer.
You also might need to adjust the air intake. Is this a Venturi or Needle Wheel intake?
its the first day I put it in, I heard from somewhere that you are supposed to leave the return valve all the way open for it to break in, and yes its brand new
Did you install the feeder pump?
I believe so, everything in the box was put together
This pump had to be bought seperate. It is for recirculating. I am not sure if you can properly run the skimmer without it (I think you can), but I do know that skimming improves drastically when you recirculate.

Microsoft poised to enter virtual lab market: News in brief
The availability of Visual Studio 2010 will be a shot in the arm for the nascent virtual lab management market, an analyst said.
The upcoming introduction of Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 will rev up the fledgling virtual lab management market, according to a recent market snapshot report by voke Research.
"The market was legitimized by VMware's acquisition of Akimbi in 2006 and will now expand as Microsoft integrates virtual lab management into Visual Studio 2010," said voke analyst Theresa Lanowitz.
Despite being first to market, VMware's involvement in the virtual lab management vendor has not enough to promote growth. ""VMware is not a trusted vendor in the application lifecycle space like Microsoft," Lanowitz said. Other virtual lab management vendors include Citrix, VMLogix, Surgient and the cloud resident Skytap and CloudShare.
Today, market penetration for virtual lab management is not high, Lanowitz said, but it holds promise. A survey of 100 IT professionals using or considering virtual lab management services found that they were "largely satisfied, that most adopt a commercial solution, and that ROI was quick and real: saving head count and improving productivity."PHD Virtual backup supports Change Block Tracking
A new version of PHD Technologies Inc.'s Virtual's esXpress virtualization backup software claims to perform backups up to 20 times faster than previous editions.
With esXpress 4.0, PHD Virtual implemented Change Block Tracking, a feature of VMware vSphere 4 that allows the backup software to read only the blocks that have changed since the last backup rather than the entire virtual disk. This speeds the backup process and reduces I/O loads on network and storage resources, the company said.
EsXpress 4.0 is available now, starting at $1,000 per host for four concurrent backup streams, with unlimited sockets and unlimited cores per host.HyTrust manages VMware passwords
Version 2.0 of the HyTrust Appliance shipped this week with four major new features.
HyTrust Appliance 2.0 can now federate appliances between data centers to coordinate security across VMware vCenter deployments in different locations. Users can also automate HyTrust functionality with a new application programming interface (API) and Perl-based scripting.
HyTrust Appliance 2.0 indexes all its data and logs, which can then be searched and filtered to quickly identify elements of interest. Finally, HyTrust Appliance 2.0 introduces a root password vaulting service. This enables administrators to assign temporary, logged credentials for access to the ESX and ESXi console without divulging the root password.
A Standard Edition provides standard access control for $500 per protected CPU socket. Enterprise Edition adds federation, API automation and root password vaulting for $750 per protected socket.Paragon offers cross-platform P2V tool for Windows
IT managers have a new tool at their disposal for migrating Windows systems to and from virtual environments.
Paragon Software Group's new Virtualization Manager 2010 Corporate Edition provides physical-to-virtual (P2V), physical-to-physical (P2P), virtual-to-physical (V2P), or virtual-to-virtual (V2V) migrations, with support for a variety of virtualization platforms, including Microsoft Virtual Server and Hyper-V R1/R2, VMware ESX Server, Sun VirtualBox, Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 and Virtual PC 7, VMware Player, and Workstation 4.0 and Fusion 1.0-3.0.
Virtualization Manager 2010 also features a Smart Driver Injector feature that makes it easier to add new drivers to a migrated system and allows migrations without rebooting the system, the company said. Pricing starts for $199 for a single license.

Year: 2012-13
Location: Saint Petersburg, Russia
Client: HC SKA
Intro: A customer journey begins with a step when a fan is finding out that there will be a hockey match of his favorite team. SKA figured that it was exactly this step that greatly contributed to overall brand perception and eventually kickstarted ticket sales. Therefore, following successful image campaign, the club opted for making improvements of match promo visual communication.
Objective: To create a concept to promote home matches of SKA.
Ice hockey is full of beautiful goals, combinations, hits, saves, assists. So we decided to show hockey as it is. To keep focus on sport and to show why people love hockey. We brought bright moments from slightly unusual angles in such a way that fans could feel themselves as if they were participants of that very moment.

Every quarter, POSSIBLE Mobile praises their employees by dedicating a workday to go do something fun as a team. In the past, the event has consisted of baseball games, arcade bars, and even curling, but this year the team decided to give back to a charitable cause. On May 4th, 2017, the POSSIBLE Mobile Denver office spent the day building bikes to donate to Wish for Wheels, a nonprofit organization that gives brand new bicycles and helmets to children of low income communities. The organization believes that bicycles improve the quality of life for children and their communities through health, education, safety, community, and leadership.
The day began with a presentation at the POSSIBLE Mobile Denver office to acknowledge all of the hard work the company has contributed during their first quarter. Following the presentation, the team headed to the Hard Rock Cafe in downtown Denver where lunch and drinks were provided and bikes were built.
Wish for Wheels has a unique model that is dedicated to team building and employee engagements through building bikes for kids. The bike build was run by Colorado Team Building, another local organization. All of the POSSIBLE Mobile employees were broken up into groups and then assigned several team building exercises in order to receive the bike parts and tools. Once all of the team building challenges were completed and the bikes were built, the team headed outside to test them out and pack them up to be brought to children. Wish for Wheels remains successful as a result of their corporate partners and all of the volunteers in the community.
This event was one for the books and the team thoroughly enjoyed giving back to the community while celebrating a successful first quarter.

The club's weekly pub meet is on Thursdays, from 10 pm at
The Knavesmire, Albermarle Road, YO23 1ER
York Mountaineering Club is a mixed-membership group spanning an age range from early twenties to early sixties.
People who are relatively new to outdoor activities can mix easily with more experienced mountaineers. Members' interests vary, including hill walking, back-packing, munro bagging, indoor climbing, rock climbing, winter (ice) climbing, bouldering, alpine climbing, mountaineering, fell running, skiing and snowboarding. The Club has a long history and has been active since 1948. We extend a warm welcome to new members:- the only requirement is an interest in pursuing hill-going or climbing.
Opportunities to develop outdoor skills can arise informally through participation. The Club also runs occasional skills courses and first aid courses.
The club runs on a very informal basis. Although there will be many trips a year which will be advertised on the website, other trips are organised in the pub on Thursday. This may be a day out rock climbing in the Peak District or Yorkshire, or hill walking in the Lakes or Dales. There are regular weekend trips to Scotland, the Lakes and Wales for both walking and climbing. Members also benefit from a range of discounts at outdoor retailers, including Nevisport.
Thursday night is our main social night and usually starts with a visit to Harrogate, climbing wall, or one of our local crags, followed by the odd jar at The Knavesmire. We meet in the pub at 10pm. Members also regularly visit Red Goat bouldering in York on Tuesdays, find us there approx 18.30 to 21.00
The way to get started is to come along on a Thursday evening, and then join an outing.

Welcome to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, home to some of the world's most beautiful and spectacular mountain ranges. Over 200 million years ago these breathtaking peaks and ridges were formed when the North American and African Plates collided creating what is now known as the Appalachian Mountain Range. This area was first purchased and owned by the Champion Fibre Company for logging in the early 1900s, but in the 1930s this vast and wild land was saved and the majestic forests of hardwood and spruce became part of the National Park Service.
Have you ever looked at a map from the Great Smoky Mountains and thought to yourself, where did they come up with such unique names? Well from the Indians and their legends mostly. One of these legends is the Cherokee story of "Aganunitsi and Uktena". Aganunitsi was a Shawano Indian shaman or medicine man. This tribe was the most hated enemy of the Cherokee. Ukenta was a great horned snaked with a large, splendid jewel called a 'transparent' on its forehead between its eyes. The snake was said to be able to mimic the voices of man and the sounds of nature. The jewel was believed to give its owner special powers over nature and the ability to cure the sick. When the Cherokee Tribe captured the great Shawano shaman he promised that if they would spare his life he would hunt down this giant snake and bring them back this precious stone. Believing he would fail as all the others had failed before, they released him, but he did not fail. He found Uktena sleeping and put an arrow through the seventh spot, splitting his heart and returned the jewel proudly to the Cherokee Tribe. There he was heralded as the greatest of shamans and was looked upon with great fear and respect for the rest of his life.
This legendary location is now a favorite hiking trail located 6.7 miles from the Sugarlands Visitor Center on Newfound Gap Road. "Chimney Tops" or 'Duniskwalgunyi' as it is known by the Cherokee Indians has one of the most sought after and inspiring views. With a top elevation of 4,800 feet, the double-capstone knob on the eastern slope of the Sugarland Mountain Massif stretches north-to-south across the north-central section of the Smokys. So even with a 360 degree panoramic view of all the surrounding mountains, including Mount LeConte to the east and Mount Mingus to the North, Chimney Top is practically ' walled- in' on three sides.
This trail isn't very long, a little over four miles round trip, but in just under two miles it climbs in elevation to over 1300 feet making it comparable to some of the 14,000-foot peak gains found in the Colorado Rockies. If you are looking for a quiet, easy trail you might want to look elsewhere. This is one of the parks most popular trails, being used by visitors looking to enjoy both the beautiful views and the fantastic array of plants and animal life. The first half of the trail is relatively easy, however, during the last mile hikers must climb a staggering 960 feet to the summit! The climb is so steep in fact that many never make it to the pinnacle to see that glorious, open view, so remember to wear good shoes and bring lots of water. Be careful and watch your footing. Although this trail is considered child friendly, please be aware that these are natural settings with rocks, slides, exposed tree roots, and dangerous drop-offs so be sure to keep an eye on the little ones and please remember that pets are not allowed on the trails for their own safety.
During the warmer spring and summer months the Eastern Hemlocks, Yellow Buckeyes, and Fraser Magnolias, are the perfect backdrop to the many colorful wildflowers that can be seen growing in abundance alongside this historic and scenic trail. Some of which might include the purple violet, bee-balm, jewel-weed, foam-flower, and the ever popular rhododendron. Hidden in among this vast array of colorful variations is a cove in the midst of a hardwood forest where the Trailhead and picnic area may be found with the Little Pigeon River bubbling close by. So take a rest and enjoy the beautiful day. Let the kids play and use your camera for some one-of-a-kind photo opportunities. It's truly a once in a life time chance. Please remember that it is against park rules to feed any wildlife. This is for your safety and the health of the park animals as human feeding considerably shortens their natural life span. Pictures-yes / food-no.
After following the waters of Road Prong Creek and crossing several small footbridges during the first 0.9 miles of the hike you will reach Beech Flats, the approximate half-way point. Here the trail branches off to the left toward Indian Gap. To reach Chimney Tops you must continue on to the right. Prepare to climb as the trail rises 730 feet over rough terrain during the next two-thirds of a mile, before turning north toward the summit giving hikers their first views of the mountains to the east. 1.9 miles from the trailhead the National Park Service has posted a sign just before reaching the first pinnacle warning hikers that they should climb at their own risk, thereby, officially ending the hike. Although no equipment is needed to make the rest of the climb it is a very steep scramble to the top fifty feet above your head, and many serious injuries have been reported. Children and persons with a fear of heights should not attempt to make this climb. Although this trail is rated as moderate, due to the low miles, beginners should consider that it is actually much more difficult due to the extreme rate of elevation gain. So consider this when making your hiking plans. Always stay in a group and use the buddy system. Helping each other will make the hike more fun and much safer.
So you made it to the top of this really, really tall mountain, how do you feel? Alive, inspired, or are you hungry, tired, dirty and sore? Time to head to Gatlinburg and one of the many rental cabins that are available; no matter your budget you will be able to find one that fits you and your family perfectly. After that long hike wouldn't a hot tub or a pool feel good on sore muscles? And don't forget to check out the local food, it's sure to replace those sluggish energies. Sit back, relax and give yourself a well deserved pat on the back. The hard part is over and as you just found out, there's something for everyone in the Great Smoky Mountains.

Britain doesn't look much better than through the eyes of Andy Tuohy.
Working from his seaside studio on the Kent coast, artist and designer Andy Tuohy brings a sunny disposition to his portraits of the British Isles. From Modernist architecture, seascapes and coastal landmarks to beach huts and bus shelters, his contemporary artwork captures Britain in a state of glorious, timeless idyll. Based upon classic 20th century illustration techniques, type and design, with references to vintage travel and railway posters, Tuohy's Britain is vibrant, humorous and optimistic.
Andy has been widely commissioned by British brands, institutions, festivals and museums, and has collaborated with clients from further afield who resonate with the fondness and nostalgia he holds for his subjects. Visitors to Tate Liverpool may be familiar with his A-Z of Liverpool and Merseyside, a labour of love for the artist who learned graphic design in the city in the 80s, before a career in publishing and advertising paved the way to him establishing his own studio.

6 Tips to Follow Before Purchasing Commercial Freezers
Pretty much every developed pizzeria business owner apprehends precisely how vital the freezer or fridges are in the kitchen. That's why prior to investing in an open display fridge for sale, there are 6 tips to consider before buying one:
1. Beware of where you put the condenser.
Even if you've already inspected the condenser's functionality, you really should still beware of where you set it. Before buying an open display fridge for sale, browse through your kitchen area's blueprint.
Reach-in refrigerator, mainly top-mount and bottom-mount, have to be installed in where they ought to belong.
If you do not like constant brushing in your kitchen area, then you ought to buy a top-mount unit. Meanwhile, if you have an active diner and really need a lot faster access to your food stock, then you need to shop for a bottom-mount open display fridge for sale.
2. Select just the suitable specifications.
In eyeing a commercial cake fridge for sale, deciding on just the proper sizing is essential. You do not wish your kitchen space to remain needlessly cluttered by a hefty appliance unit, right?
So, grab your rulers and take the measurements your kitchen space. On the contrary, if you still have your kitchen area layout, identify the measurements of:
1) The area for the new fridge
2) and your kitchen's entryways.
Obviously, the commercial freezer Perth stores sell need to accommodate through those mentioned areas.
And one more thing, recall the amount of food that really needs chilling. This will certainly impact the overall size of the freezer or fridge you're preparing to acquire.
3. Discover commercial fridge styles on the internet.
Do you hate making a decision arbitrarily or on-the-spot?
If you do, then look for a few examples of commercial fridge styles in Google. Throughout a fast research, you ought to be able to list down the following and see if a certain fridge unit matches with your conditions:
1) Requirements
2) Advantages and disadvantages
3) Types of Materials
4) Gastronorm match-ups
A practical web guide would be a distributor such as Cold Solutions if you're from Australia. Click here Cold Display Solutions
4. Take a Look at the Door Seals
The entryway seal or gasket is yet another crucial part of a reliable, operating chiller. Commercial fridges today typically use a massive quantity of electricity to supply satisfactory cooling down power to the chiller's structure.
Nevertheless, if your entryway seal is malfunctioning, it might misuse a good deal of that freezing power, which can urge your fridge work more, consuming more power.
Inspect the doorway seals for some wears or tears so you can immediately replace it.
5. Check the Usage of Energy
Are you a promoter of the Earth? If yes, then acquire a commercial refrigeration Sydney shops promote that features an Energy Star grade. This indicates the refrigerator can reduce to up to at least thirty percent if compared to the regular energy fees.
6. Examine the Unit's Attributes
- Does your organisation need to keep sizable boxes of disposable cargos in the unit? That signifies you need to go for a refrigerator that comes with changeable shelves.
- Does the unit need to be moved regularly? That indicates you require a commercial refrigeration Melbourne shops promote that comes with wheels.
- Do you want it to be versatile? That suggests you must get a glass door fridge Brisbane stores sell that comes with a number of shelves and drawers.
- Do you wish a space-efficient machine? That suggests you will have to pick a used commercial upright freezer.

So last week, I had an unusual experience: I was part of a good old fashioned beaver trapping. Here's the story and a few leadership insights the experience revealed.
I live a block from downtown Dundas. There's a bunch of water and forest close by, but our house is at least a mile from the closest potential beaver habitat, and that's why we were shocked when we saw a beaver hiding under our neighbour's front porch. Technically, a dog saw the beaver first, but as soon as people were alerted, a small crowd of neighbourhood folks gathered to have a gander. Country-dwellers might be tempted to make a joke about people in Dundas not getting out that much, but that wouldn't be fair. We get out plenty, but beaver sightings are rare for most city-dwellers – even in Canada.
Now, I don't know what the standard protocol is, but I figured that beavers in the city have a propensity to become roadkill, so I looked up animal control and gave them a call. "Oh yes – the Dundas beaver." She sounded oddly familiar with the case. "We've had a few reports about him in the past few weeks. But it sounds like he's wandering a little farther than before."
"You actually know which beaver I'm talking about?" I could hardly believe it, although I guess it sort of makes sense, since there probably aren't that many beavers who wander around Dundas. I had a moment of appreciation that there were people whose entire job was to help track and, if necessary, capture and move, animals that were somehow out of place in the city.
So the van showed up shortly, and I offered my help to the solo officer. Having exactly zero experience trapping beavers, I didn't think I could actually be helpful, but I figured she had a hard job and it would be a nice gesture to offer. Her response came as a bit of a surprise. "Sure!" She said. "You can work the cage for me."
I tried to sound confident. "Yeah… no problem!" I was a little scared. Beavers have big teeth. I've seen what they do to trees, and my legs are a lot more bite-able than tree trunks. I had a brief vision of a beaver gnawing off my leg before dragging it down the street and throwing it on the dam.
She added, "Also, I might need your help to lift the cage into the van after we catch it. Beavers are heavy." She seemed to exude confidence that we were, in fact, going to catch this beaver. That made one of us.
Our initial plan was to use a big pole to corral the beaver in to the cage, but it seemed more willing to endure the poking than face the prospect of leaving the cover of the porch, so we brought in reinforcements (a 65 year old neighbour). Using two poles with cable loops on it, they wrestled the beaver onto the lawn and lifted it into the cage. Keeping a careful eye on the beaver's mouth to ensure I kept all my fingers, I snapped the lid shut (the extent of my role…). Although the 50 pound ball of muscle demonstrated his power with a few big writhing pushes, the beaver was, overall, more docile than I thought. Maybe he knew he was getting a free taxi back home.
So – leadership tips and success insights from this little experience.
- Try to appreciate all the unseen effort that makes your life good. A lot of people who have jobs that are essential (like animal control services) that aren't really in the public eye until they're needed. It takes a lot of people to keep a community safe.
- Have faith that your followers can actually achieve what you're dreaming to do. The officer's confidence made me feel a little better that things were going to turn out okay.
- Enlist the help of others. Not only was the job easier with many people helping, but it actually made the helpers feel like we had some role in the success! The officer did herself a favour by asking for help, but she also did US a favour!
- Be flexible. Things rarely go according to plan. Have a good backup plan and be ready to use it.
- Get involved with interesting things. Even though I wasn't the star of the show, my role was important, and I was proud to contribute!

Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is the surgical procedure used to eliminate the fat deposits and the excess skin and muscle around the eyelids that make you look older and more tired than you really are. Open your eyes to Blepharoplasty and renew your look.
What does Blepharoplasty do?
It refreshes and rejuvenates the look by eliminating certain features that contribute to make one look older and tired, such as the 'bags' beneath the eyes and the excess skin in the 'drooping' upper eyelids.
It eliminates lumps generated by the accumulation of fat inside the eyelids. It improves the sight by reducing the upper eyelids when they droop too much and interfere with the vision. It brightens the look and is often performed together with a temporal face lift.
What does Blepharoplasty NOT do?
It does not eliminate crow's feet. It does not eliminate dark circles under the eyes. It does not lift the eyebrows nor does it change their shape. If you think your eyebrows are too low or too straight, please read the information on brow lift surgery that we provide.
How is Blepharoplasty performed?
The surgeon makes the incisions along the natural folds of the eyelids so that the resulting scars will be disguised. On the upper eyelids, the incision is done along the natural folds and, on the lower eyelids, it is done just below the eyelashes. In some cases, the incisions extend some millimeters beyond the corners of the eyes. Working through these incisions, the surgeon removes the excess fat that accumulates beneath the skin (two lumps in each upper eyelid and three in each lower eyelid). Apart from this, he trims the excess skin of the bags that give the eyes the appearance of being 'hanging'. After that, the incisions are closed with very fine sutures. If you have fat lumps but you do not need to have any excess skin removed, your surgeon may perform a transconjunctival Blepharoplasty. In this procedure, the incisions are made inside of the eyelids and they leave no visible scars but, it is necessary for the skin to be thick, firm and elastic, that is why it is generally indicated for young patients.
Local anesthesia and complementary sedation.
Length of surgery
One to three hours, according to the complexity of the case.
There is no need to be hospitalized; it is done on an outpatient basis.
The Results
The scars heal very quickly and become almost invisible after a few months. But even before that happens, after only 2 or 6 weeks, the results of the Blepharoplasty will be evident. You will have a more relaxed and youthful look for a long time. In many people, the results are permanent.

You have places where you go with your laptop because you have to work on something, but after a while you feel a bit uncomfortable and have the feeling that either you have to leave or you have to order the whole menu to not feel bad about occupying a table. Federal is not one of those places. Here you can just enjoy some nice food and drinks with your laptop. They have a big table in the middle where you are allowed to work. As well in another room in the back of the place you can be with your laptop. The other tables are for not-working-people.
Even if it's such a laptop place, it doesn't feel like a boring office. It really is a nice café where it's just normal to work as well. The menu is large with different kinds of toasts, salads and sandwiches and also offers brunch with all types of eggs and dishes like shakshuka and pancakes. All very tasty and hard to choose from.
There is another Federal at Sant Antoni. At Carrer Parlament 39

Spring 2015 ASOS Wish List
Hey Everyone!
It has been a while since I have done a wish list and thought in lieu of the nicer weather we are finally getting that I would show you some of the spring fashion I am digging from ASOS at the moment!
Weekday 90s' Denim Jacket- $95.21 CAD
I really want a denim jacket this spring and I really like this one in particular. I think it would look great with a dress or paired with ripped black jeans.
Warehouse Floral Longline Jacket- $126.94 CAD
I am a huge fan of floral, as I have mentioned before and luckily for me it is still a popular trend. This jacket is awesome and would be a great spring jacket to have.
Warehouse Floral 2 In 1 Midi Dress- $179.83 CAD
I love this dress so much! I do not normally go for a midi dress but this one could be worn casually or to a more formal occasion. I also like the pattern on the skirt a lot and that you could also wear a bright shoe to add some extra color to the outfit.
French Connection Ciara Playsuit in Spray Print- $126.94 CAD
So this playsuit is a bit out of my comfort zone but I really like this, it is a similar feel to my Ted Baker dress and I really like the print on it. This is also an outfit that you can wear at night or during the day with a denim jacket or a pair of black pumps.
ASOS Dark Floral Printed Short- $63.47 CAD
I have a couple pairs of floral shorts very similar to this from Urban Outfitters but I like the colors in these shorts and you could wear them with anything. These are a great short to have for spring!
Vila Utility D-Ring Short- $55.01 CAD
I loovee these shorts and think they are a great staple short to have in your closet. I have been really into green lately and I could easily pair these with a lot of tops that I am wearing at the moment.
ASOS T-Shirt with Twist Detail in Neppy- $38.08 CAD
This is a great t-shirt for everyday wear, it is simple but has the twist detail which gives it a bit more appeal. This shirt can also be worn with anything from denim to a pencil skirt.
Ted Baker Distinguish Rose Crosshatch Across Body Bag- $209.45 CAD
It wouldn't be a wish list of mine without something a bit out of my price range and from Ted Baker. I want this bag so, so bad. I do not currently have any smaller handbags and this one would go with almost everything; a girl can dream, haha.
New Look Wide Fit Cleat Multi Strap Boots- $59.22 CAD
I have also been looking for a pair of boots similar to these, I like the slight platform and chunky heel. These would look great with a pair of skinny denim or shorts.
New Look Sooty Heeled Sandals- $59.22 CAD
I really like these shoes a lot, anyone who knows me knows that when I wear heels that it is platform or nothing. I have always really liked the look of platform shoes and I think these in particular are great. I like the detailing and I have really been liking chunky heels lately.
There is my spring wish list! What are your favorite looks for spring?

Therapist Brian Roberts from Wirral is currently preparing to fly out for a two-week tour of duty in Sarajevo. From here he will treat war victims from either the charity's own therapy rooms, or from outreach centres.
He said: "The people I will be working with have had their lives shattered by the conflict." Many of the victims will have been through horrific experiences, including amputation, rape and torture.
During the two weeks, Mr Roberts expects to provide 70 people with one hour of treatment free of charge. Although Helping Hands will pay half of the overall costs, including travel and accommodation, all volunteers are required to raise the remaining £800.
This month Mr Roberts held a treatment taster day at his salon, charging clients £5 each for a 15 minute taster session of treatments including Indian head massage, Thai seated massage and reflexology. He also took part in the Wirral Coastal Walk last week.
It takes just £12 to treat one war victim for an hour.
If you would like to make a donation, please visit Mr Robert's charity fundraising page.
To find out more about the wide range of therapies available from the professionals listed on Therapy Directory, please visit our Therapy Topics page.

text: Although this Powramid looks quite similar to the flying saucer surge protector we saw last month, this looks a bit more refined in terms of not looking like some guy made it in his garage. The Powramid has the same six outlets that the flying saucer had, but has their outlets facing right side up, meaning your adapters will hang naturally instead of dangling backwards. And best of all the thing will be only $17-$25, meaning that it's not that much more than a standard power strip. [Blast Magazine]

Blender Cube Landscape
Februar 4th, 2013 von buergermeister
I was asked to do a screencast how to do the abstract cube thing from the last post, I am sorry cant record that as it is to much for my machine running that big file in Blender and recording at the same time. It stops recording sound. Instead of this I did another screencast, what you can do with cubes in Blender.

Fractal Firm Discloses Patent Filing on Wideband Cloaking and Metamaterials
|(Nanowerk News) Fractal Antenna Systems, Inc., the pioneering innovator of fractal antenna and fractal electronics technology, today announced that it has filed for patent protection on method and apparatus for producing wideband "cloaking" devices and wideband metamaterials. The invention sets a path for the realization of practical devices for rendering objects less distinguishable from their background (that is, invisible) and also for thinner microwave, IR, and optical lenses and devices using "negative refractive index".
|Previous metamaterial and cloaking devices were incapable of demonstrating effects beyond a narrow frequency or color range and thus had little or no practical use. The new approach uses the self similarity of fractal geometry in a prescribed approach to make the effects work over a much larger band, or range of colors. The effects are arrived at passively, require no power, and will be reduced to a "skin" in future applications.
|CEO and inventor Nathan Cohen notes: "Cloaking is still a trick found only in science fiction, and it is imprudent to claim that true invisibility will ever be attained. However, this invention shows that there is a methodology, with a firm physics basis, that can get you there and is a major step forward in the progress of metamaterials." Cohen notes that the invention is an application of the complete understanding of the physics of frequency invariance, a principle requiring fractals,which Cohen and a colleague discovered a decade ago. Cohen adds: "It is likely that there will be microwave devices that use this new wideband technology in the next 4 to 5 years and there may be some optical (visible light) uses in that time line also."
|About Fractal Antenna Systems, Inc.
|Fractal Antenna Systems supplies products for the worlds most demanding wireless , and electromagnetic applications. Backed by eighteen U.S., and international patents, plus numerous patents pending, Fractal Antenna Systems is the recognized pioneer in fractal technology, with extensive research and field experience. The company is a privately held and headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts, USA.
