PRAGUE (August 10, 2017): Dozens of Preciosa crystals decorate each of the buckles of the newly unveiled edition of iconic Hangisi pumps by Manolo Blahnik. The twenty pairs were developed as a collaboration between Manolo Blahnik and Preciosa.
"While working with this flawless Czech lace and Preciosa crystals, I rediscovered my appreciation for my Czech roots," said Mr. Blahnik. "I hope their future owners feel just as special wearing them as I did while designing them," he added after revealing the Bohemian edition Hangisi's in the Preciosa Flagship Store today in Prague, after which he spent time with the public, patiently answering his admires' questions in a rare public talk.
Adding to the pairs' exclusivity, a team of Mr. Blahnik´s expert shoemakers will come to Prague in September to make sure each pair is the best fit for its new wearer.
The body of the Bohemian-inspired Hangisis is made of dark turquoise hand-made bobbin lace by life-long lacemaker, Věra Holomečková from Higher Vocational School of Textile Crafts and Secondary Art School of Textile Crafts Prague, Czech Republic.
Manolo Blahnik picked the lace type, dating back to approximately 1900, from the unique collection of more than 2,000 types belonging to the school. "Since our school was founded almost one hundred years ago, we have never made an entire shoe from lace. Creating this pair of shoes was extremely technical," said Ivana Hyblová, School Director. "People were always interested in traditional Czech crafts and it has become even more popular recently. Working side by side with Mr. Blahnik and Preciosa makes me very proud." Ms. Holomečková has dedicated her life to lacemaking and now teaches this fine and traditional craft in the Czech Republic and around the world, including Spain, where Mr. Blahnik was born. She made the lace for the prototype of the limited edition Hangisi herself, while the other pairs are to be completed with lace made by the best lacemakers in the Czech Republic.
Manolo Blahnik pays tribute to his Czech heritage with his designs, in that he only works with the finest products and flawless craftsmanship, making his collaboration with Preciosa a perfect partnership," added Karel Páral, Commercial Development Director, Preciosa Components.
Later today, Manolo Blahnik opened his most comprehensive exhibition to date, The Art of Shoes, which pays tribute to his life's work, at Museum Kampa in Prague. The exhibition continues until Sunday, November 12th, 2017. Adding to the ambience are also several chandeliers called Venus, Maria Theresa and Maria Theresa Comtess by Preciosa Lighting chosen by Mr. Blahnik himself.
With a career spanning 45 years, Manolo Blahnik is one of the world's most influential footwear designers. His shoes have spellbound an international set of adoring and loyal devotees across the globe. Blahnik is a craftsman. To this day he makes a trip to the factories in Milan every season for a few weeks to personally bring to life every collection. All the shoes he develops are based on his sketches which get translated into prototypes at the factories. The exquisitely shaped lasts and heels he creates for his shoes are still perfected with his very own hands.
Through the years Manolo's achievements have been recognised by various bodies in many countries, most recently the Couture Council of America and one of the highest accolades, an Honorary Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE) awarded by her Majesty The Queen. He has also published numerous books, the latest being Fleeting Gestures and Obsessions with Rizzoli in 2015.
Manolo Blahnik points of distribution total at 290 points of sale in 33 countries worldwide with 12 standalone stores and a recently launched ecommerce platform - manoloblahnik.com.
Along with a leading women's line which includes evening and day bags, the brand also has a successful men's collection.
Preciosa's tradition of glassmaking can be traced back five centuries to 1548 in the Crystal Valley of Bohemia, where it is still headquartered today. Founded upon the ideals of quality, durability and innovation, Preciosa has throughout the centuries achieved new technological breakthroughs and introduced the world over to the truly captivating and timeless quality of authentically crafted Bohemian crystal. In addition to its headquarters in Jablonec nad Nisou, Czech Republic, the Group operates 12 representative offices across the US, UK, Russia, China, Hong Kong and Dubai. For more information, please visit www.preciosa.com.
Higher Vocational School of Textile Crafts and Secondary Art School of Textile Crafts Prague, Czech Republic
The history of the school can be traced back to the era of Marie Therese. At one time, this lace-making school, called the School Institute of Art Production was the supreme institution in the country. Today, the school develops its legacy by teaching textile design, pattern-making and Clothes design as well as Conservation and Restoration of Textiles Textile Crafts in Clothes Design. The school pays a lot of attention to joining different crafts and art techniques of lace-making, weaving, printing, basket-weaving within the context of today's textile and clothing aesthetics and design, making this institution one of the best, not only in the Czech Republic, but in Europe.

I think the reason stories rooted in that early tradition appeal so much to me is that much contemporary fantasy and sci-fi (especially) don't appeal to me. Either it's too dark for nothing more than darkness' sake, or it exists seemingly only to bear its author's social and political bête noires.
There's also a dearth of basic storytelling. Whether from lack of desire or lack of skill, too many of the stories in mags like Beneath Ceaseless Skies just drift over the page like puffs of smoke with no narrative force, no energy. Nothing happens. Say what you will about the prose of the pulp writers of the 30s, their goal was to spin ripping yarns, not create a drear, pastel smear of words.
I know I'm painting with a ridiculously too broad brush, but it's as if the roots of much contemporary fantasy/sci-fi are planted in RPGs, TV, and comics. In of themselves, those aren't bad things, but they tend to be more concerned with the surface things of the genre. Real depth is missing.
So, when something like Cirsova comes along, I get excited. I haven't been as keyed up about a new magazine in some time. I wish them well, and am looking forward to their next issue.
On a completely separate note, I've been diving deep into the waters of the US Civil War this past week. And by deep, I mean deep. Right now I'm listening to a two-hour presentation on the Battle of Stone's River by historian Earl Hess and others.
After hearing US Grant impersonator Dr. E. C. (Curt) Fields, Jr at the Civil War Roundtable of New York last week, I started dipping into my library. A chapter of Catton here, a chapter of Foote there.
|Howard Pyle's Battle of Nashville
Then I found that C-SPAN has a trove of lengthy videos like the one with Hess on every Civil War subject imaginable. I've already watched a pieces about Bruce Catton, WT Sherman, Joe Johnston, JB Hood, the Overland Campaign, and Sherman's Carolinas Campaign. It's dynamite stuff, but each one's at least an hour long, and I don't see any end in sight. It just might kill me.

Superpower Christmas
With the help of a wisecracking, steampunk robot, two accidental superheroes discover that they have inherited some amazing, if unusual, abilities. Computer whiz Megan can fly (mostly sleep-flying, but she's working on it) while her best friend Cam can (in theory) transform into any animal, but mostly ends up as a were-hamster. Together they must protect the source of their ancestral powers from a wannabe evil mastermind and his gang of industrial transformer robots who've disguised themselves as modern art installations on their Greenock estate. It isn't easy to balance school and epic super-battles, not to mention finding time to search for other super-talents and train with their Mr Miyagi-esque were-tiger coach. Can Megan and Cam beat the bad guy, defeat his robot transformers and become the superheroes they were born to be?
In early drafts of The Superpower Project, I tried a couple of different ways of having a chapter set around Christmas time. Ultimately, both got chopped during editing because they didn't really fit. As a festive treat, I thought I would share a bit from one of them.
If you haven't read The Superpower Project, this is exactly the sort of action-packed malarkey you can expect to find on every page of this ideal Christmas stocking filler! You can read the first few chapters for free on the Discover Kelpies website. And if you remain unconvinced, why not read these lovely reviews on Toppsta.
In this 'deleted scene', Megan and Cam have been asked to rescue someone called Wilf from the top floor of an abandoned hi-flat which is being demolished during the Christmas holidays...
The hi-flats stood on a steep hill overlooking the river. There were dozens of blacked out windows, randomly smashed, like row upon row of bad, broken teeth. The buildings were fenced off, and due to the demolition, there were police cars stationed at either end of the street.
'I'm not sure how we are getting in John,' said Megan. 'Looks pretty busy down there.'
'I know a way around the back and under the hill,' said John. 'You two can get inside and quickly fly up the stairs.'
'Can't we just take the lift?' asked Cam.
'All the power's off. Wilf will likely be up on the thirteenth floor,' said John. 'It's been quiet up there for years. That's his favourite place.'
'All thirteen floors?' said Cam. 'This is a nightmare.'
'Suppose he won't come with us,' said Megan.
'He will, he's not stupid, just tell him I sent you.'
'You're not coming?'
'No, TJ and I are going to wait nearby, just in case we need to try and slow down the demolition.'
'How,' said Cam, 'are you guys suddenly bomb disposal experts?'
'There will be some wires,' said TJ. 'We will just pull out the wires.'
Megan and Cam stared at them both, unimpressed.
'Well it will be a little more scientific than that,' said John, trying to reassure them.
'You said we would pull out all the wires,' said TJ.
'Yes,' said John. 'But obviously we'll pull out the wires to stop it exploding. Not the wires to start it exploding.'
'How will we know which is which?' asked TJ. 'Will there be labels?'
'Y'know what? Let's go,' said Megan. 'Before this plan gets any worse.'
The stairway was covered in rubbish and rubble, here and there, bits of old cable poked out from the walls. Megan dodged and weaved her way ever upwards, round and round, in and out. All the way to the thirteenth floor. She stepped out from the stairwell into the corridor and set frog Cam down on the floor.
'I'm really dizzy,' he said as he turned back into himself. 'That was like the waltzers. Only worse.'
'Wilf!' shouted Megan. 'Wilf are you here?'
There was nothing but the darkness, and the distant rattle of wind against broken windows.
'There's an open door over there,' said Cam, pointing. 'All the others are boarded up.'
The two of them walked slowly towards the door.
'Wilf? Is there anyone called Wilf here?'
There was no reply. They stopped outside the door.
'Okay,' said Cam. 'Hands up if you think we should go in to the pitch black room on the thirteenth floor of the abandoned building?'
'Suppose he's hurt,' whispered Megan.
'Suppose we get hurt,' said Cam.
'Let's just be ready,' said Megan. 'We can do stuff like this remember?'
Together, they walked into the tiny hallway inside the front door. Another door stood directly in front of them, hanging off at the hinge. Megan pushed at the broken door and it squealed open. The room was empty, except for an old mattress under the window. On the mattress, was a cat.
The cat miaowed and wandered over to Cam, rubbing itself against his legs.
'Wilf's a cat?' said Megan.
'Makes sense,' said Cam, 'I suppose. Let's grab him and go.'
As they made their way back out to the stairwell, there was a massive bang, then a metallic crunch. Both of them thought exactly the same thing at the same time, 'The building's getting blown up early!'
Megan opened the door to the stairway, and they began to run down the steps. Something was blocking their escape route. Something made of shining black metal, forcing its way up the narrow stairway, bending wires and cracking walls as it came.
'Resilience!' said Cam. 'Why is Resilience here?'
'Who cares! He's hardly here to help is he? Back upstairs!'
Scarcely moments ahead of the lumbering robot, Megan and Cam burst back onto the thirteenth floor.
'Okay...okay....good news? Building isn't exploding yet, it's just Resilience. Bad news? Resilience is here.'
Megan was holding onto Wilf, who seemed to be taking all of this in his stride. 'What do we do Cam? I could fly us out the window?'
'You can't fly down the outside, someone might see,' said Cam. 'There's a webcam filming the demolition.'
'Well what then?'
The banging and scraping from the stairs suggested Resilience had almost squeezed his way to the top.
'Got it,' said Cam, 'we go down the lift shaft!'
'Down a lift shaft? Won't it be all jaggy wires?'
'So be sure not to hit the jaggy bits,' said Cam. 'Seriously. You could end up with tetanus or something. My mum made me get an injection. Fly steady.'
Megan glowered at him, 'Yes. Well that will be much easier now, I'm sure.'
Cam had already kicked the plan into action, and having turned into a gorilla, he was pulling the rusted lift doors apart with his massive arms.
As Resilience smashed through the stair door, Cam once again shrunk down into a frog, and Megan scooped him up and popped him in her pocket. Holding tight to Wilf she jumped down into the dark of the lift shaft, swooping down towards the basement level.
Above she could hear Resilience banging towards the opened lift door. She looked up to see him peering down, perhaps deciding whether or not to jump.
If he jumps down, thought Megan, he will totally squish us, there's no way we could move in time.
The robot began climbing down the lift shaft towards them. They were now at the bottom, and Cam had once again hopped out of Megan's pocket, and turned gorilla to force the other lift door open. This one was much stiffer however, and with so many changes, Cam's strength was weakening. Resilience kept climbing.
'Cam quick! Please!' said Megan.
Suddenly, the door was torn open from the other side. TJ stood, holding the broken door and a handful of wires, 'I do not think these were the right wires,' said the robot, 'I think we should hurry.'
Megan, Cam and TJ tumbled out of the concrete shaft and down the thorny hillside as the first of the explosions went off. On the hill above, the hi flat gracefully collapsed in on itself, in a huge mushroom cloud of dust and rubble. The nearby streetlights flickered and popped. In every window, the glow of Christmas lights disappeared. The town was suddenly dark, and totally without power.
'There really should have been a label on the wires,' said TJ.

The Skeleton Key
There's a war on. Well, two wars really. There's the one everyone knows about with soldiers and bombers and there's the other one, with spells, magical swords, zombies and giant ravens.
The Rowan Tree Legion are here to help us win both.
The Skeleton Key is a new all ages comic by myself and Mhairi M Robertson, and the easiest way to describe it would be "Dad's Army with witches". We have been working on it for AGES so it's great to finally be able to share it with folk. Skeleton Key is now available from the Magic Torch Comics shop.
There is also a new edition of Mhairi and I's first publication, Wee Nasties, an early years book which introduces younger readers to some of the folk characters of Inverclyde. That's available from the Magic Torch Comics shop too.
In other comic news, I'm delighted to be presenting at the From Heritage To Creativity Workshop : Inspiration For All event, in association with Scotland's Urban Past and the #DareToDream storytelling festival. I'll be talking about some Magic Torch Comics projects, and then Andy and I will be helping folk create their own comics in the afternoon.
And I'll also be along at the awesome Edinburgh Comic Art Festival on Saturday 26th November, presenting on Community Comics and Cultural Identity.

Galoshans and Beyond...
I love this time of the year, autumn into Hallowe'en and then straight on til Christmas. So I'm especially pleased to be out and about a bit over the next few months. If you are around, why not come and say hello.
On Friday 28th October, I'm in Greenock Central Library from 4 - 5, sharing some spooky tales as part of the Galoshans Festival.
On Saturday 29th October, I'm hopping on the ferry, to take part in the Dunoon Book Festival - actually on Dunoon pier!
November is of course Book Week Scotland, and I'm delighted to be popping down to Eastgate Theatre in Peebles on Wednesday 23rd November, for the Read-A-Licious book festival. Then it's off to Johnstone Library on Thursday 24th November to meet the Chatterbooks, with a wee detour via Inverclyde Academy school library to chat with their awesome comic club.
I was delighted to read some really lovely reviews of The Superpower Project on Toppsta, a review site which encourages young readers to post reviews. It's a smashing site, and a great way to discover new books too.
And finally, Mhairi Robertson and I have a new graphic novel out this month, The Skeleton Key, which is ideal all ages reading for the season of the witch...basically, Dad's Army, but with witches. You can get your hands on a copy from Saturday 29th October at the Dutch Gable House from 2pm, and it will be available to purchase online shortly afterwards from Magic Torch Comics shop and via amazon and comixology. Mhairi and I also have a new edition of our first book Wee Nasties out this month too.
Enjoy going your Galoshans...what's that? What's Galoshans?! It's a folk-play, traditionally performed around the houses on Hallowe'en and other seasonal occasions. Magic Torch have been part of a Heritage Lottery supported project to help rekindle that tradition in the Inverclyde area and I've created a new version of the play, which you can read, download and perform for free. The project is part of the wider Galoshans Festival happening 29th / 30th October in Greenock.
Merry Galoshans!

The Weed Gatherers
|Red Weed by John CB2
It being August, I always like to remember HG Wells Martian invasion from The War of the Worlds - still my favourite book. Here's a wee fragment of backstory from something I'm tinkering with...
For the first few years, the prevailing wisdom was that rural communities had suffered less during the Martian invasion. The Martians had largely concentrated their efforts on cities and suburbs, and that is where the greatest physical destruction took place. The destruction of our countryside was more subtle, less immediate.
Certainly, the Fighting Machines which had travelled further afield to create outposts had churned up or burned huge swathes of rural land, and several Martian cylinders had also crashed – by accident or design – in areas such as Cornwall, or even further north in Lancashire. It's also true, that after the war, country estates suddenly emptied, with their city owners either dead or indebted amid the financial ruins of London, there was no management of the land. Labourers walked across country to find work anywhere they could, leaving ghost villages behind them. But this was not the problem either. It was the red weed - that bitter Martian frond, which spilled out across the world, strangling water supplies and spoiling crops and fields.
The red weed's life cycle is brief, but relentless. It spawned and died during that terrible August and September of the invasion. But unlike the Martians, the weed returned with a vengeance at the start of the following year. It destroyed any chance the country had of farming its way out of the famine that had endured since the end of the war. It became clear the weed would have to be effectively and aggressively managed. Suddenly, there was work to be done in the countryside once again, and itinerant families returned, including many who had left for the cities during industrialisation.
Weed is gathered in a number of different ways, but there is currently no mechanised or industrial approach, as any machinery is instantly snarled and sheared by the density of the red roots. Instead, teams of workers haul the weed directly out of the ground – almost like a game of tug of war with the earth itself. Where the weed is regularly kept in check, this is a time consuming, but straightforward process. In situations where the weed has overtaken the land to a severe degree, the work is harder and more dangerous – fire and paraffin must be administered to weaken the weed prior to any removal.
Once torn from the ground, the weed must be incinerated completely. This is generally done in huge metal barrels sunk into the ground of each farm, and the fire will burn for many weeks. The determined nature of the weed is such, that even at this stage, it can spore and crawl from the furnaces. These flaming tendrils are often a source of amusement for local children – long fingers of flame, clawing their way out of the pits. Older children will dare one another to jump over them, risking tragedy.
Not all the weed is burned of course. Each farm will be able to sell small amounts to nearby towns and cities, cut and frayed to create weed ribbons for display during war commemorations, or dried and fashioned into lapel pins. This is skilled work, most often performed by women and I observed many groups of them around the country. All of them sing "loo-lally" as they tear and weave, appropriating the howls of Martian language into work-songs. The red stained fingers of the weed seamstresses mark them out as artisans. Only too recently have we come to realise what else their exposure to the weed will mean.
There's more Martian fun on the blog...you can read my Wind in the Willows / War of the Worlds mashup from a few years back, or enjoy Loola of Mars by myself n Mhairi.

Can Megan and Cam beat the bad guy, defeat his robot transformers and become the superheroes they were born to be? Kelpies Prize shortlisted author Paul Bristow creates a hilarious tongue-in-cheek superhero mash up with a dangerous twist!
My first children's book, The Superpower Project, will be published by the wonderful Floris Books (Kelpies) on February 18th 2016. You can order it from the Discover Kelpies website and Amazon.
The book was originally written in early 2014 and was shortlisted for the 2014 Kelpies Prize. In fact, Kelpies are running their 2016 prize now, so if you have an idea for a childrens book, have a look.
The Superpower Project features a few local legends and forgotten places that will be familiar to readers of my other blog, Tales of the Oak - as well as some gigantic art robots. I can't wait to share it with folk...and you can read the first three chapters for free right here.
I'm sharing some images of the places and stories which helped inspire the book over on my facebook page.
And if your school or library is interested in a visit from me, I'm pleased to say I am now part of the Scottish Book Trust Live Literature scheme.
I've been playing it a bit cool with this blog post. But I really am totally super-excited...

text: The ESJF is delighted to announce the publication of German versions of our survey reports last year on the Jewish cemeteries of Lower Silesia in SW Poland and in the Rivne region of NW Ukraine. Comprehensive surveys and epigraphical studies took place in these regions last summer as part of our cooperation with the Stuttgarter Lehrhaus Stiftung, to whom we are very grateful for their support in this project. Surveys in the regions were coordinated by ESJF team members, our former research coordinator Khrystyna Shmatok and by ESJF Educational Coordinator Natalia Videneeva. We would like to thank Professor Gil Huttenmeister for his work on the epigraphical study and particularly Ly Kryształ for all her assistance in the epigraphic studies and the translation of these reports into German. Some of the surveyed sites have already been fenced this year.

Tile Roofs
Tile roofing, particularly clay tile roofing is generally expected to last a lifetime.
However, due to improper installation or inferior materials – there are cases where at tile roof needs to be repaired.
Leaks can be caused by slipping or broken tiles, worn out underlayment, or sub-standard installation. Failure of metal flashing and fasteners may also cause leaks in a tile roof (or any roof). The good news is that in many cases, you can repair or replace only the affected area, rather than replace the entire roof.
Here, we are replacing a tile roof only 8 years old, due to low quality tile installed by the builder.

If anyone is interested in trying it
there's a groupon for emeals, half price for a year. I just took it and signed up for the "slow cooker clean eating" plan. I really need to get better at menu planning! There are a lot of things in the first two weeks that I won't eat – I don't like to cook pork – but there's enough to get us going, and some things are easy substitutions (like lamb or chicken sausage for pork sausage). I don't cook recipes every night, some nights are just spaghetti or whatever, but if I can do 2-3 recipes a week I'll pull ahead of the freezer (our monthly meat deliveries are starting to pile up!)
Although there are two of us I took the '3-6 person' option because I like having enough for lunch the next day and seconds if we want them, so that's 5-6 servings. The meat portions seem generous and I like that there's an iphone app that makes a shopping list and lets you remove meals and their ingredients (but not tinker with them) although hm, the first two weeks had a roast on them. I don't want to cook a roast every week, I hope that's an anomaly!


text: Print DiagnosisYour doctor will likely recommend heart tests to diagnose WPW syndrome, such as: Electrocardiogram (ECG). Small sensors attached to your chest and arms record electrical signals as they travel through your heart. Your doctor can look for patterns among these signals that indicate the presence of an extra electrical pathway in your heart. Portable ECG. Using a portable ECG device at home provides more information about your heart rate. A Holter monitor records your heart activity for 24 hours. An event recorder monitors heart activity when you experience symptoms of a fast heart rate. Electrophysiological testing. Thin, flexible tubes (catheters) tipped with electrodes are threaded through your blood vessels to various spots in your heart. The electrodes can precisely map the spread of electrical impulses during each heartbeat and identify an extra electrical pathway. More InformationWolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome care at Mayo ClinicElectrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) Holter monitor Treatment Cardiac catheter ablationCardiac catheter ablationIn catheter ablation, catheters are threaded through the blood vessels to the inner heart, and electrodes at the catheter tips map the spread of electrical impulses through the heart. Electrodes at the catheter tips transmit energy to destroy a small spot of heart tissue and create an electrical block along the pathway that's causing your arrhythmia. Treatment depends on several factors, including the severity and frequency of your symptoms. If you have the WPW pathway but don't have any symptoms, you probably won't need treatment. If treatment is needed, the goal is to slow a fast heart rate when it occurs and to prevent future episodes. Treatment options include: Vagal maneuvers. These simple physical movements — which include coughing, bearing down as if you are having a bowel movement and putting an ice pack on your face — affect a nerve that helps regulate your heartbeat (vagus nerve). Your doctor may recommend performing vagal maneuvers to help slow a rapid heartbeat when it occurs. Medications. If vagal maneuvers don't stop the fast heartbeat, you may need an injection of an anti-arrhythmic medication. Your doctor also may recommend a medication that can slow the heart rate. Cardioversion. Your doctor may use paddles or patches on your chest to electrically shock your heart and help restore a normal rhythm. Cardioversion is typically used when maneuvers and medications aren't effective. Radiofrequency catheter ablation. Thin, flexible tubes (catheters) are threaded through blood vessels to your heart. Electrodes at the catheter tips are heated to destroy (ablate) the extra electrical pathway causing your condition. Radiofrequency ablation permanently corrects the heart-rhythm problems in most people with WPW syndrome. More InformationWolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome care at Mayo ClinicCardiac ablationRadiofrequency ablation for cancer Request an Appointment at Mayo Clinic Preparing for your appointmentWhat you can do Write down your symptoms, including any that may seem unrelated to your heart. Make a list of all your medications, vitamins or supplements. Write down your key medical information, including other diagnosed conditions.

Your doctor might ask: When did you first begin experiencing symptoms? How severe are they? How often have you experienced a fast heartbeat? How long have the episodes lasted? Does anything such as exercise, stress or caffeine seem to trigger or worsen the episodes? Do you have a family history of heart disease?

On Mon, Mar 7, 2011 at 4:35 PM, Francesca Ciceri <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote: > First of all, I'd like to ask you what is your feelings about doing it, your > impression (bad or good) about the last cycle of sessions (regarding both > organization and the sessions) and if you have some particular > ideas/desiderata/needs for the future sessions. Things I liked about last year's IRC sessions: they were many, they were well announced before and the contents were then posted on the wiki in a timely manner. Kudos for everyone involved for a great job. Things I think that could be improved: * I'm not convinced that having a separate channel for questions when the people attending is less than 20 is helpful. It means having to constantly switch between 2 windows, for a very very small reduction in noise. Until the amount of people attending really justifies it, I think that sticking to one channel is preferable. * Having the sessions always at roughly the same time gave them some coherency, but also meant that people with something already scheduled for that time (I teach classes at that time, for example) or where that time catches them in the middle of their timezone night, could practically never attend. So, I think that some diversity (maybe alternate between two times?) could be better. > 1.

Update: The update for Groove Music is live now.
Groove Music will get a massive update today. The update adds many new features as well as support for Continuum but it is not rolling out yet. We will update the article when it is rolling out.
Here is the changelog of version 3.6.1573.0:
Songs and albums in your collection now sort by the date you've added them by default. You can still switch to sorting alphabetically (or by artist in the case of albums).
- You can now swipe from the left to bring up the hamburger menu. It makes it easier to use the app with a single hand!
- Press-hold to re-order tracks within a playlist.
- Previously only plays from your collection would appear in Recent Plays – now it also includes things you've played directly from Explore.[Groove Music Pass Required]
- We now show download progress in the title bar, and also provide an entry point to the download manager from within the left nav menu. This aligns with what the Movies & TV app includes.
- Tell Cortana to 'Play Electronic' and she will shuffle all your electronic music for you. [where Cortana is supported]
- In the event that, during an upgrade, we need to rebuild the database (this should be very infrequent), we'll show a little explanatory dialog explaining what's happening.
- If we detected songs which are duplicated between OneDrive and Music Pass we pop a notification asking if you'd like us to automatically remove them.
- We reverted the recent change to the font size of the song title in Now Playing. It's smaller now.
Furthermore Continuum support was updated as well with these changes:
We've updated the layout of the artist gallery to have proper spacing, alignment and remove the color-matched square backgrounds.
- We've added the Explore modules to the Artist Details page at larger resolutions. [Groove Music Pass Required]
- We've updated the layout of Explore at higher resolutions to look correct, and also respond better to scroll wheel. The modules also have a flipper control to allow scrolling within the page. [Groove Music Pass Required]
- Updates to the Search results page layouts to look good at higher resolutions.
- Updates to the layout of the Add to menu at higher resolutions.
- Updates to the layout of the Recent Plays gallery at higher resolutions.
Many of these features sound very exciting, personally I cannot wait to try out the new function which allows the user to swipe from the left to bring up the hamburger menu. That's definitely a big improvement for the one-handed usage of the app.
Many ideas for new features, not only in this update come from the consumer feedback. It is definitely good for Microsoft to listen to the feedback but it is also great for us because we get the features we want to have. So if you are a Groove Music user, give Microsoft feedback via the Feedback app, in-store reviews, and even on Twitter!

The Sega Master System was the first of Sega's home video-game consoles. An 8-bit system (much like the Nintendo Entertainment System), the Sega Master System played games that came on small, rectangular cartridges and enjoyed a run on the market of over a decade. That's an impressive feat when you consider that the machine was a financial failure in both the North American and Japanese territories, although it enjoyed moderate success in Europe. If you are lucky enough to have this classic gaming console, hooking it up is an easy process.
Set your television on Chanel 3, which is the default setting for the Sega Master System's RF Box.
Disconnect any television cables from the back of the TV set. Don't worry; you'll be reconnecting the cable in just a minute.
Connect the RF Coaxial Cable on the Sega Master System's RF Unit to the back of the television, where the cable box wire would usually be connected.
Connect the cable wire to the RF Unit's Antenna receiver to restore television signal to your TV.
Connect the other end of the RF Unit--the end that is not plugged into the television--into the Sega Master System.
Plug the unit's power adaptor into a nearby wall socket and turn on the unit to ensure that it is properly connected to the television.
Most recent
- Because this is an older video game console, you don't have to worry about component cables or anything of that nature.
- Because the console is old, the Sega Master System must be handled with care.

Whānau on Bus Trip to Heal Issues of Suicide
Five Māori families affected by the suicide of a family member are participating in a unique project in which they will travel on a bus from marae to marae, making their way from Taranaki to Cape Reinga. The journey begins today and lasts for one week.
At each stop, a new family will join the journey and at each marae the families will take part in wānanga sessions guided by Māori psychologist and filmmaker Paora Joseph. In the wānanga, the families will share their personal struggles and stories about loved ones who have committed suicide. Other families in each area are invited to participate.
The wānanga and the journey will become part of a film, titled Maui's Hook, for which Joseph will also serve as director.
Following a similar "journey of discovery and resolution" format to his powerful documentary Tātarakihi: The Children of Parihaka, this documentary/drama feature film will chronicle the healing journey of the five families.
Drama sequences will be co-directed with Paora Joseph by Alyx Duncan (The Red House) and the cinematographer is Maria Ines Manchego, known for her work on Florian Habicht's Pulp. Maui's Hook is produced by Quinton Hita and Karen Waaka-Tibble from Kura Productions Ltd, with support from Te Rau Matatini – National Suicide Prevention Strategy, Te Puni Kokiri and the TSB Bank with Te Hurihanga Trust.
The trip journey starts in Taranaki and stops along the way in some of the areas worst affected by whakamomori (suicide) – Whanganui, Rotorua, Auckland, Whangarei – Northland, before arriving at Cape Reinga, the final departing place of spirits.

In this major reconsideration of Herman Melville's life and work, Michael Paul Rogin shows that Melville's novels are connected both to the important issues of his time and to the exploits of his patrician and politically prominent family-which, three generations after its Revolutionary War heroes, produced an alcoholic, a bankrupt, and a suicide. Rogin argues that a history of Melville's fiction, and of the society represented in it, is also a history of the writer's family. He describes how that family first engaged Melville in and then isolated him from American political and social life. Melville's brother and father-in-law are shown to link Moby-Dick to the crisis over expansion and slavery. White-Jacket and Billy Budd, which concern shipboard conflicts between masters and seamen, are related to an execution at sea in which Melville's cousin played a decisive part. The figure of Melville's father haunts The Confidence Man, whose subject is the triumph of the marketplace and the absence of authority. A provocative study of one of our supreme literary artists.

We told you that we're getting ready for a big adventure forward. We told you that we are selling everything and moving ourselves across America. And you wanted to know: how do we make money off our unwanted stuff?
Let's skip to the end of the story right away: things that don't sell or aren't worth selling get hauled to the Goodwill. Everything else? We make an attempt at earning some cash.
So how do we do it? It takes some work, but it's not impossible. Here' how. But first, know this: you have to plan ahead. Unless you're going to just have a massive yard sale and then donate everything you can't offload, selling stuff takes time. So start now. Yes, now. There are a ton of links to options below.
How to Make Money Off Your Stuff
Decide what's worth selling. Selling stuff takes time – sometimes lots of it. The first step to selling your stuff is figuring out what is worth your time to sell. This was a hard time for me. I sorted through several bins of books and identified ones to sell, only to discover that the majority of them go for somewhere around $1 on Half.com. That's not even worth driving to the post office for.
Decide what to sell online or at local consignment stores — and what to save for a yard sale. My rule of thumb for this is pretty simple: big items and big-ticket items get listed online first. If they don't sell, they'll get place in my upcoming yard sale. That means I've got my older DSLR camera and lenses listed online, our piano, and a few speciality child items.
Selling non-clothing stuff online?
Ebay. This is where I sell big-ticket items that can ship.
Half.com. This is where I sell those books … or, rather, the ones worth selling. Few of them make the cut this days, I'm sad to report.
Amazon.com.If you've got textbooks, Amazon's buy back program may fit your needs. You enter your titles into a search tool here. They tell you if they can buy them back. They give you a shipping label. You mail them. If they can take them, they give you money. Easy. I've had pretty good success with this in the past.
Selling clothes, toys and accessories
Local consignment group sales. These are generally for childrens' items. You price each of your items and the sale host gets a percentage of your sales. For example, the sale I use in our town takes a 30 percent cut. This is a great way to sell clothing, shoes, gear and toys that I know I can get a good price for. It does take a little effort to register and label everything, but every year I've done this the payout has covered what I spend at the sale on new-to-me things. These sales are how I buy all of my kids' clothes for the upcoming season as well as most of their birthday gifts and Christmas gifts. You can find sales near you advertised locally.
Clothes Mentor or Once Upon a Child. These brick and mortar store allow you to bring in your used adult (for Clothes Mentor) and children's (for Once Upon a Child) clothing, accessories and toys and receive cash upfront. They sort through your stuff and decide what to take and what to give back. The payout isn't huge, but if these are items you couldn't sell at a consignment sale, for example, or were planning to donate for lack of other options, this is a pretty good method for getting some cash. I recently took a pile of items to Clothes Mentor. They gave me almost $8 for several scarves and a few tops I don't wear often.
Local all-stuff consignment store. This is an extra handy-option if you're military. Most military bases have a thrift store, and most thrift stores sell consignment options. If you've got military orders on hand, those stores will let you list more items than they normally take. Score. They do have standards of what they will take, so I only haul in the things that I'm sure they'll let me list. Make sure you take a self-address envelope so they can send you your earnings.
ThredUP: ThredUP allows you to send in your clothes in hopes that they decide to accept them and give you money. This works great IF they decide to accept your stuff. You can send them your items (for free) and pay about $12 for them to send them back — or opt to have them donate. I sold two pairs of Old Navy jeans, one pair of Gap jeans, one Old Navy skirt and one Gap skirt and was given about $8.50 — all items that were rejected by Clothes Mentor.
However, I also sent in a gorgeous Ann Taylor cocktail dress that was too big for me that they ended up not accepting — and since I opted to not pay $12 to have them send it back, it was donated. I was very surprised by this because I thought for sure that they would pass on the jeans (items I was going to take to Goodwill but sent in on a whim) and expected at least $10 for the dress. Bummer.
Go here to sign-up for ThredUP.
PoshMark. I've been surprised by my PoshMark success. I've used it to sell four items in just the last week — all name brands (Reebok, Mavi, Lululemon and Athleta) and all items that I didn't know how else I was going to get enough money out of to make it worth it.
The thing I especially like about PoshMark is that, much like an in-person consignment sale, they let me set my own price — and then take a cut. I had already tried to sell a few of these items on Ebay without success, so I was good with getting what I could out of most of it. A few of the other items I manage to sell at what I paid for them.
The service also makes shipping super simple — print out the prepaid label, slap it on a box, stick it in your mailbox or drop it at the post office. Incredibly easy. Also, I know we said we are purging, but I was able to use PoshMark to buy replacements for a few very-worn work dresses. Score! Go here to download the app for PoshMark (and use code JCYFM to get $10 off your first order if you decide to buy not sell).
This post contains some referral links. Sign-up through them, and I might make some coin. I like that, so help a girl out.

Recipe Challenge – July: Wine & Honey Roasted Pears with Chocolate Ganache & Whipped Cream
I like to watch cooking shows. Usually it's some sort of show Chef Ramsey is in. My favorite though is Master Chef. I love seeing what all of these non-professional home cooks can come up with. Once in awhile, a poached pear crosses the competition line, and it always looks freakin' fantastic. I wanted to make a version of my own for fruit month, and decided to go with Wine & Honey Roasted Pears with a Chocolate Ganache and Whipped Cream. Sounds a little more difficult than it really is. And, if you have guests over this recipe is easily doubled or tripled without creating a lot of extra work.
Roasted Pears -
- 2 to 3 - Firm but ripe pears
- 2 Cups - Sauvignon blanc
- 1 Cup - Water
- 2.5 TBSP - Honey
- 1/4 Cup - Granulated Sugar
Chocolate Ganache -
- 1/2 Cup - Heavy Cream
- 1/2 Cup - Semi Sweet Chocolate
Whipped Cream -
- 1/2 Cup - Heavy Cream
- 1 TBSP - Powdered Sugar
Roasted Pears -
- Preheat oven to 350ºF.
- Combine honey, water, wine, and sugar in a sauce pan and bring to a slow boil. Continue to boil for 30 minutes until liquid has reduced by half.
- Peel, cut, and core pears. Place cut side up in a baking dish just big enough to hold the pears and the syrup.
- Pour syrup over pears and bake for 40 minutes. Turn pears every 10 minutes to insure even cooking in the syrup.
- Allow to cool a bit before serving with chocolate ganache and whipped cream. (If the pears are too hot everything will melt right off of them.)
Chocolate Ganache -
- Heat cream on low until it comes to a simmer.
- Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate until fully melted and combined.
Whipped Cream -
- Beat the cream using the whisk attachment in your stand mixer until soft peaks form. (You can also do this by hand or use a hand mixer.)
- Fold in powdered sugar.
- Refrigerate until ready to use.

The crew filmed over a dozen classroom visits at private and public schools throughout Baltimore. This class at Pikesville High School is featured in the film, but the scene did not make it into the final cut.
This is one of Leo's favorite jokes. He says it was his late wife Flo's favorite. The final credits of the film are intercut with a joke. We tried several but had to make a hard decision. Enjoy this extra joke!

Broken Garage Door System Sensors
It's a great morning. You're awake on time, got a good breakfast in you and a nice, snazzy outfit on. You head to your garage and climb in your car, press the button on your keyless entry remote and wait as the door opens, reverse out of the lot then press the button again and…
The garage door doesn't budge, no matter how many times you press the button. And it's then you realize your door's sensors aren't working.
Garage door sensors are crucial to modern garage doors because they can tell when something is obstructing the door, sending a signal to the opener system that allows the door to open and shut. This small piece of equipment has saved many people from injury and damage to cars and property.
Garage door sensors work by way of "eyes" that emit a beam of infra-red light. Garages have two sensors, one on either side of the door. Both of them need to be working for the garage door to work safely. This means that their infra-red beams have to be lined up. If one or both of the sensors isn't working, call a service company to check it.
Sometimes, the problem with the sensors is as simple as dirty lenses that the homeowner can simply clean. The two garage door sensors also might be out of alignment. Other problems are more involved and may require the assistance of professionals like those at Garage Door Pros. There might be problems with the wiring or even water damage from rain or rodents chewing the wire and causing a shortage.
Which means it's time to call Garage Door Pros.

Fixing a Garage Door Sensor and How to Repair It Quick
Having a broken garage door sensor can be really difficult to deal with. Overlooking the convenience that comes with an automatic lifting garage isn't ideal. There are many reasons why people choose to install a sensor to remotely open and close it.
There are a countless number of benefits that will come with choosing to hire a reliable team to get the job done. Over time batteries will fail and things that get in the way may cause the sensor to fail. Staying on top of the maintenance of your garage door sensor will keep you ahead of the game.
With the right tools you can easily prevent any major problems down the road. If you are dealing with an issue that's beyond your scope of fixing, then we have a solution for you. Our professional team has everything needed to repair or replace your current garage door sensor. While there are many reasons why a door sensor may have failed you it's important to start off with the obvious. Checking if batteries in your garage door remote have gone bad is usually the first step. If you feel that the issue isn't with your batteries its recommended that you change them anyway just to make sure. Another reason why your garage door sensor may not respond is due to obstruction.
The garage door safety sensors operate by shining an invisible beam of light across the floor to detect if an object is blocking the door. Something as simple as a box in the way will cause your garage door to not respond. Dust is also a culprit when it comes to getting in the way of sensors. Your sensors just may need to be cleaned off, so try to gently remove any dust or dirt first and see if that works.
How to Test Your Garage door Sensors Before Replacing It?
This is a quick way to check in the wiring system in your sensor has failed. We found a great step-by-step way to check and see if your garage door won't close because of a sensor error.
- Remove the sensors from the brackets.
- Remove the wires from the wire nuts or cut the sensor wires
- Strip both ends of wires from each sensor and twist like colored wires together.
Replacement of Your Garage Door Sensor Is Easier Than You Think
If you have tested all that has been stated above, you may need a new garage door sensor installed. There is a countless number of options for you to choose from. The price ranges from mid-range to high depending on the distance of the sensor. With our team by your side, there is no doubt that things will get working properly.
Getting started is an easy process and is fairly simple to do. Give us a call whenever you are ready to get started and don't miss out on a great opportunity. Before skipping steps and thinking that your garage door is broken you need to run a few tests. We have exactly what you need in order to get the job done properly.

The cooler weather also makes pickling a little less exhausting at the cottage. Pickles are full of vitamins and minerals and are often consumed to aid digestion as well as other ailments.

Englishman Paul Farbrace, who was wounded in the infamous 2009 terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team bus, was appointed the head coach of the national side on Friday.
The 46-year-old, who has been recently coaching his former English county side Yorkshire, is replacing South African Graham Ford who had already announced plans to stand down after the ongoing series against Pakistan.
"SLC wishes to thank Yorkshire Cricket Club for being generous enough to release Farbrace for duty in Sri Lanka," Sri Lanka Cricket said in a statement.
"The commencement of his contract will be in effect from 1st January 2014 for a period of two years," the board added.
There was no immediate comment from Farbrace, but he told website ESPNcricinfo two months ago that he was flattered to have been approached for the Sri Lanka coaching job.
"It's nice to know people think I did a good enough job the last time I was there," he said.
Farbrace, a former assistant coach to the Sri Lankan team under Trevor Bayliss, was wounded along with seven Sri Lankan players in March 2009 when a dozen gunmen opened fire on their bus in Lahore, Pakistan.
He left his post soon after the attack, in which he was struck by a piece of shrapnel in his right arm. His first assignment will be at the Asia Cup in Bangladesh in February.
He will then coach the team at the next World Twenty20, which is also due to be held in Bangladesh in March-April.
Ford's last assignment with Sri Lanka will be the ongoing series of three Tests, five one-day internationals and two Twenty20 games against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates.
Under Ford, Sri Lanka were runners- up to the West Indies in the World Twenty20 in 2012 and also won a home Test series against Pakistan.
