Teesha you are such a darling. But, my friend, you would only know all the hours I put in last week if you TOO were putting in those long hours! I have to admit, I was a little bleary-eyed making these things. But it's fun, right?! And boy did last week make me appreciate this weekend! No work, just play. And I'm taking nothing for granted.
: )
Hope you and your guys are enjoying it as well. Thanks for the nice note.

Jackie, do you remember where you got those handy little silicon muffin cups I saw in an earlier post? I have a picky eater (2 yrs. old) and want to jazz up her meals with a little bento magic!

Lisa, yes, I got our at one of those big-box grocery stores [Great Canadian Superstore] in the baking/kitchen area. They were pretty inexpensive, I think just $5 or $7 and we got a whole whack of them.
I've also seen them at Daiso, the magic dollar store that I've gushed about in previous posts ... those end up costing about $1 each.
How exciting that you are getting into the bento too! Let us know how it goes.
Happy Bento-ing!

The Ship, officially named Hisa Maru, is a large freight vessel stranded in the middle of the ocean. It is where the events of Monstrum take place. Escaping the ship is the primary objective of the game, and can be accomplished via three different ways.
Although it appears to have been abandoned, the player will quickly realize that they are not alone.
Layout & Rooms
Certain sections of the ship have a randomly generated layout, and are different in each new game. The basic layout of the sections is the same however, and procedural generation only occurs within predetermined sections.
Upper Decks
Also referred to as the 'Crew Decks' or 'Residential Area', this is where the now likely deceased crew lived. Items commonly found here are duct-tape, lighters, fire extinguishers, and fuses. The most common item in this area are smashables (ie; glasses, cups, and bottles).
| The Bridge
The dysfunctional control room of the ship, and the only room that has 4 different doorway entrances/exits.
Typically, at least one mission item will be found here.
| Loading Area
Unofficially named, this area is where the Life Raft can be found, as well as the crane required to move it. Several crates can be found here that the player may use to hide in. Glowsticks are also commonly found here. This area connects to the Bridge.
| Mess Hall
A dining cafeteria with 2 different doorway entrances/exits. Notably, the tables here are considered the best places to hide in the game, because they are the only hiding spots that allow you to clearly see everything in the room.
| Recreational Area
An entertainment lounge with 2 different doorway entrances/exits. Notably, this room has a functional television in it that, when activated (assuming the fuse-box for the area is powered), will emit a loud static noise that can be used to attract the attention of the monster.
| Security Room
A watch room for the crew of the Hisa Maru. Notably this room contains a fuse-box that powers the electrical lights of Deck 7 and 8.
Lower Decks
Located in the bowels of the ship, the Lower Decks consist of a total of four levels, and are much more expansive and maze like than the Upper Decks. Ruptured steam pipes are primarily encountered here, making it a volatile place to be explore.
| Cargo Hold
A potentially lucrative area to find a myriad of items, particularly glowsticks. Be warned, however, that large clusters of the Hunter's egg sacs can be found here if it is the monster, and that this area also has no electricity-based lighting, making the player easier prey for the Fiend as they don't have the flickering lights as a warning to the Fiend's proximity anymore.
| The Engine Room
A multi-layered area densely packed with machinery and small workshops. A phone system can be found here that, when powered, can be used to "control" the movement of the monster by luring it to another phone, or to trick the monster into breaking down the door to the Master Steam Control Valve.
| The Submarine Room
Commonly referred to as the "sub bay", this area houses the Submarine, a possible escape route, and has 3 different doorway entrances/exits, but notably contains no items or hiding places (there was a row of lockers next to to sub, but were ultimately removed during an update). The nearby control station overlooks the room, which the player may access and use to their advantage. A moveable cart in the room can be pushed to block off one of the three doors at any given time, or one of the three vents in the room, which are used by the Hunter.
Main Deck
Also referred to as the 'Outer Deck', this is the outside area in-between the Upper and Lower Decks. Red lockers can be found in pairs along both sides of the entire length of the ship. Items do not spawn anywhere on the Main Deck.
| Helipad
Located towards the center of the ship, the Helipad has a working helicopter planted on it, which can be used as a possible escape route for the player. Also in the area are four chain-locked storage containers, one of which randomly houses the Refueling Equipment needed for the Helicopter.
Generic Rooms
Generic rooms make up the vast majority of randomly generated areas of Upper and Lower Decks, and can contain anywhere from 0 to 3 or more various items in each of them, as well as hiding places such as lockers, cabinets, beds, storage shelves, or tables. The rooms are labeled as "generic" because they are otherwise unremarkable, and can even appear multiple times in an area.
|Upper Decks
| Room C06
A bedroom with four possible hiding spots (2 lockers, 1 bed, 1 table). Reportedly, on the top bunk bed here will never spawn items (unlike on other bunk beds).
| Room C07
A small room containing two lockers. The fuse box in this room provides power to the electrical lighting on Decks 5 and 6. Note that the half shelf in this room is not a table or desk, and thus cannot be used as a hiding spot.
| Room C24
A storage room with two lockers. Although a vent passes through this room, it does not appear to be a suitable exit for the Hunter.
| Room C35
A bathroom containing two lockers. The toilet can be activated (flushed), but the noise it makes does not appear to attract monsters.
|Lower Decks
Room C02
|Room C10
A small workshop with two cupboards. Can sometimes contain a mission item.
|Room C15
Another small workshop with two cupboards. Can sometimes contain a mission item.
|Room C22
The biggest of the generic rooms in the Lower Decks: This room is also a workshop and usually contains a valuable mission item like the bolt-cutters or the welding kit. It also contains two cupboards and two lockers making it a good choice to hide from a pursuing monster.
Room C29
|Room C34
A slightly bigger workshop with two cupboards. Can sometimes contain a mission item like the chain spool or the sub battery.
The ship is riddled with many hazards and traps, most of which possess the ability to either stun or kill the player.
| Pit Traps
Exclusively found on Deck 5 and 6, pit traps are unstable areas of the floor that will cause the player to trip if they run over them. They have no effect when walked on, and can be jumped over. Notably, the Brute and the Hunter can also trip on them.
| Security Cameras
Found exclusively throughout the Upper Decks, security cameras can spot the player and set off an alarm, which will quickly draw the monster to your location.
|Steam Pipes
Found primarily throughout the Lower Decks, ruptured steam pipes can spawn along the walls of a corridor. At looping intervals they will blast out pressurized jets of steam. If the player happens to run into the steam, they'll be stunned and knocked backwards. A direct blast from steam will kill the player.
Located throughout both the Upper and Lower Decks, vents do not present any direct danger to the player unless the Hunter is the monster, who primarily emerges from them when it is alerted to a loud noise.
- The name of the ship, Hisa Maru, is revealed in Note #11.
- According to Team Junkfish's Design Blog #07, 2 other traps were planned to be implemented into the game: the Tripwire Trap, and the Drop Trap.
- The ship's external appearance as seen in the ending cutscenes seems to be somewhat different than it is in-game. (for instance, there is no second outer deck below the Main Deck, or at least not one that is accessible or viewable from any angle).

Wow, I can't believe it's been 2 months since I've shared here! I even went a week without posting on Instagram which is unheard of in my world but life is moving at warp speed right now and I am doing everything I can to just document it when possible. The sharing stuff can come later (or now!) but I just want to make sure I don't let the sands of time slip through my fingers without at least capturing a few to cherish forever.
We had a great Spring Break a couple weeks back. Sorely needed by all, as Wren is one of the youngest grade 1 students and between the long days and the long winter she was starting to get a little bear-like by dinner time. So we headed just a few hours south and did a fun couple days in Calgary. We made reservations at the Aloft hotel and stayed there the whole time, just enjoying the amenities. Wren is a water baby and we enjoyed most of our stay pool side.
Wren has also become really interested in photography! I'd say it's probably her first true hobby and so I've been teaching her some of my limited knowledge. It's incredibly fun to scroll through her memory card every week or so to see what she has captured, including plenty of less than flattering shot of Sean and I LOL, but it's kind of nice to finally be the one not stuck behind the lens, even if most of her shots catch us in our jammies and without our hair or makeup done for the day. But she manages to capture a lot of our 'real' life.
Life with three dogs is also adding a lot of fullness to life! We are working on training and containing the madness but there is such an abundance of love that I can't complain.
There have been birthdays on top of birthdays, but even an otherwise quiet Tuesday can deserve a little celebration. The memories of an average day being ended with a little love and making them special are what I aim to leave Wren with of her childhood. This past year of full school days really drive home the fact that her days of being little are really really limited and I need to make the most of them.
In other, more vain, news. I dyed my hair back to brown! I loveeeeed the purple but it was a) a ton of work, and b) not the look I was aiming for with an upcoming project. So I went back to my natural colour and kept it interesting by adding bangs to the mix.
I had to adjust to the bangs, but I have really been digging them so I think they will stay for a bit. They add a little more style to my usual top knot or ponytail. Try as I might, if I wear my hair down it is usually up by lunch time...
And that's been our March/April. Bring it on May!!

In a bid to add a bit of variety to my paintings and move on from the usual landscapes, I've been to a number of portrait and life drawing classes over the last year. I've spent many an evening sat in front of a model trying to get their limbs and features in the right place which is not as easy as it sounds. The nature of these classes has meant I've come away with very few finished pieces to share with you but I have learned a lot.
When I joined Farnham Art Society and read through the program of events, "the Figure in Dance" caught my eye and I put my name down for this workshop with Jamel Akib. We worked from photographs with a focus on bringing movement into the picture, something I don't do at all with a life model for obvious reasons. After a couple of warm up sketches we moved onto our first picture. The aim here was to use the background to help introduce that movement before we had even started on the figure herself. As my other teachers will tell you, backgrounds are often a bit of an afterthought. I may add a chair leg to stop my model from floating in mid air but I rarely give it much more thought than that so this was a very useful exercise. The background here is done using acrylics with the figure then added in pastel.
In the afternoon, some of my fellow artists moved onto pictures of birds in flight with some amazing results. I was enjoying the dancers though so decided to stick with that theme. I love the shapes that they make and I was particularly taken by the photo of these two where the lighting made it hard to tell where the dancer ends and the background starts. I decided to give it a shot for my second painting. I used acrylic and pastel again. I didn't manage to finish this one during the workshop but took it home and continued working on it. I'm pleased with the end result as both pictures are quite different from anything I've done before. I think the first one is my favourite. I came away from the workshop with hundreds of ideas so watch this space. I would like to say a big thank you to Jamel and to Farnham Art Society for organising a thoroughly enjoyable day.

Denver - The Bluebird Theater - February 25th 2016
article by: Conrad Sperosen
For a packed out Bluebird there was no turning down that night. Crave The Sound was able to catch Black Tiger Sex Machine before Dabin's set.
Crave: What inspired your post-apocalyptic sound?
Julien: It's just what we like a lot. Whether it's video games, sci-fi movies, or anything really it's whats influenced us growing up. A lot of our musical references tie into that. When we were starting in 2007 the artists that were out there like Justice and Boys Noize but even going farther back to Daft Punk tied into how we developed the whole Black Tiger concept. We love all that stuff and it fits with the name, it fits with the sound and it all goes hand in hand really. We really just want to have fun with it and we created a whole universe around our sound because why not? It really adds something else to BTSM.
If you could work with any artists who would it be?
Patrick: I would go for soulwax, they're great! They're from Belgium but were used to working with Belgians, even though some can be weird ass people *looking at Apashe*. Part Of The Weekend That Never Dies is the album I have listened to the most in my life hands down
Julien: Maybe something in the more indie vibe, maybe a few tracks with LCD Sound System.
Where do you think you'll take your sound from here?
Julien: It's hard to say where we are going to take our sound in a general sense. I think we're going to try and evolve but continue making songs that push people on the dance floor. We want to keep our atmosphere with the orchestral and sci-fi influenced sound. I think the next project will be something with a classic hard electro vibe.
What would you classify SCORPION as then?
Julien: Scorpion is our slower tempo electro track, keep in mind everytime we do music we try to make it work live.
We noticed you like to jam out on stage a lot which is not something you see a lot with EDM.
Julien: Go see Dabin, he's about to go on.
Patrick: We were like kids going to shows and liked to rage and thats where the passion came from
What artists really inspired your music?
Dabin: It's changed throughout the years. In the beginning I was really inspired by more melodic stuff like Gemini and Nero. Nowadays though I've found a ton of inspiration from music outside of EDM, like Florence and The Machine, Lana Del Rey, and Woodkid
At this point it was time for Dabin to make his way onto the stage. I had no idea what to expect. What ensued was a truly kickass set. Dabin's modulated guitar segments were a roaring part of his sound. His set had a dynamic energy to it. With heavy bass but funky lines his performance was magnificent. I personally thought Dabin also had the best visual set up of the evening.
Apashe had an amazing follow up. His set, like Black Tiger Sex Machine' and Dabin's, projected his signature sound. His exotic dark sound was an excellent way to get the crowd down and dirty. I was stoked to hear I'm a Dragon and Battle Royal, his whole set was a dirty sexy good time. His stage presence was not only incredible but was also the perfect primer for BTSM, the whole crowd was moving to his music.
Black Tiger Sex Machine opened with their apocalyptic sounding track Religion. They played songs from their new EP Welcome To Our Church mixed in with their other flagship tracks. They definitely played into their sound and their entire performance, stage presence, visuals, and all carried a bold heavy vibe. The performance gave a nod to Boys Noize when they played & Down.

during in-call, the screen off but when move away from face, the screen would remain off.
so i poke around in the system file and found some solution after few days of testing
and now its work very well
the only method works for me is re-calibration via terminal/adb shell
u need to type 'su' without the quotation mark and then follow by the code
echo 0 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
echo 1 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
my guess is, the calibration value are stored in efs so if there are chances for it to corrupted, there's small chance that the sensor goes haywire, well it happen to me. so i hoping this helps some user that facing proximity sensor.
*ps : okay, so i did some experiment and found that for it to recalibrate properly, it is recommend to do it under a bright environment
So, i decided to put in solution/fixes for those problem that occur on GT-N7100(Galaxy Note II International) that i cant find the solution.
the solution is based on my experience so i DID manage to fix it
**update : another method which i found online, forgotten from where, give a hard blow on the earpiece. i remember saw some user (not from xda) posted that this helps the problem
as reported from user, only working in SAMSUNG stock rom
*create a file, copy the syntax below and put it in extSdCard, use script manager to run as SU and at Boot
echo 0 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
echo 1 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
1. After flashing a ROM, you booted it and when you long press the home button, suddenly the system ui force close, but you DID FLASH the rom ACCORDINGLY to the OP's instruction ;
the problem is that the google search apk, aka velvet.apk is missing. the simple solution is go to play store and install google search, or u can download from Playstore GoogleSearch]

Tomorrow Always Belongs to Us has a very distinctive purpose, to represent the strength of contemporary Nordric painting. Curated by Mika Hannula (FI) and Johan Sjöström (SE), 11 young artists working in a variety of styles and themes will take over Göteborgs Konsthall in the follow up exhibition to Painting, Space & Society, 2007.
One to watch out for is Glasgow based, Icelandic artist Sigga Björg Sigurdardóttir whose ink drawings depict ambiguous creatures of an androgynous nature getting up to unusual shenanigans. "I constantly draw without thinking too much about it. I am curious about the subconscious, what happens when I'm not thinking. That's what I'm trying to find out through the drawings, not knowing the answer is what inspires me to keep making them."
Her fantastical visions have a captivating childlike disposition with an underlining nightmarish humour. She explains, "The same drawing can be horrible, funny, sad and happy at the same time." Also working with animation, Sigurdardóttir's altered realities comes to life from old drawings, experimentation and a self-composed soundtrack. "I make characters and ´props´ often cut out of drawings that went wrong. I never know where the story is going so the result is usually full of surprises. It's like having a puppet theatre but never actually knowing what the puppets are going to do. They have a mind on their own. The animations still feel kind of new to me. It's still early days. The possibilities are endless."

Recent data released by tech companies on employee diversity confirms what has been quite obvious: Amongst leadership and technical employees, few are women, and even fewer are African-American or Latino.
Companies should care about these numbers. Studies show that companies with gender and ethnic diversity are more creative and profitable, A variety of perspectives help them design products and services that appeal to a diverse, global audience.
Front & Center is an organization founded to increase diversity in tech through design. Join us for our inaugural event Designing for Diversity: How can we design a company culture that is inclusive?
During this humble interactive workshop, we'll break into small groups to discover and design solutions aimed at increasing and retaining diversity in tech.
All genders and ethnicities are welcome.
6:30pm - 7 - Registration
7pm - 7:30pm- Lightning talk
7:30 - 8:30pm - Ideation
8:30pm - 9pm - Presentations
You don't have to be a designer in tech to contribute your insights and ideas – in fact, some of the brightest solutions may be found in the most unfamiliar areas.
There will be food, drinks and great people to meet.

Misconception number 2: There is no significant difference between Sunni and Shiite.
So here's the deal: After the prophet *Muhammad died in 632 AD, his followers decided a leader should be chosen to lead the people and settle disputes as the prophet had done. This office was called the khalifa ("successor"), or caliph. The first caliph was Muhammad's friend, Abu Bakr. The next three caliphs were also close friends or relatives of Muhammad, including his son-in-law, Ali. (Ali's wife was Fatima, daughter of Muhammad.) Ali was murdered by a disgruntled follower, and his rival, Mu-awiyah, became the first caliph of a powerful dynasty called the Umayyad dynasty. But Ali's son, Husayn, wasn't going to take this lying down. His army fought the Umayyads, but Husayn and many of his followers were massacred.
So here is the historical explanation of the Sunni-Shiite conflict: the majority of Muslims (about 85%), known as the Sunni, believed that the caliph was primarily a political and military leader, not a religious authority. The minority Shiites (10-15%), those who followed Ali and Husayn, believed that the caliph must be a descendant of Ali, through Fatima.
Today, if you ask a Sunni or a Shiite to explain their differences, however, you may hear other reasons. The doctrinal differences that initially divided the two groups are given greater or lesser importance, depending on whom you ask. There are certainly political and religious differences: Shiites generally do not acknowledge the authority of elected government officials, holding to the belief that all authority -- political AND religious -- should be in the hands of the imam, or Muslim cleric, whom they believe to be without sin. This is why the Supreme Leader of Iran, for example, is Ali Khamenei, an imam, not the president, Hassan Rouhani. The Sunni-Shia divide can also be seen in certain rituals such as prayer and marriage.
Are these differences essential and crucial to all Muslims? No. Millions of Muslims prefer to simply refer to themselves as Muslim. The reason you might have the impression that all Muslims are militant on either one side or the other is, just as in most situations (American politics comes to mind), it is the extremists who make the most noise. In some regions it has become more like an intense sibling rivalry and a competition for power and territory. Think of the conflict in Northern Ireland between Protestants and Catholics: if one of each sat down across from each other, their debate (to put it kindly) would not be over the worship of Mary or the sale of indulgences. It would be other hostilities that have festered for generation upon generation. It would be over the fact that So-and-so killed my uncle or my cousin. In truth, many of the Middle Eastern conflicts are not religious conflicts at all. Often cloaked in religious language, they are power struggles. They are tribalism alive and well. They are the Capulets and the Montagues.
This is important as we attempt to follow ever-changing developments in the Middle East and other areas of conflict among Muslims. Iran, along with Lebanon and most of Iraq, is primarily Shiite. Saudi Arabia, an ally of the U.S. (that's another discussion), is majority Sunni. At this writing, the tension between Shiite Iran and Sunni Saudi Arabia is so high that diplomatic relations have been severed.
You cannot understand the dynamics of the Iraq War OR the Iran-Saudi tensions unless you get this Sunni-Shiite piece. I am no foreign policy expert, but apparently neither were the decision makers in charge of the first American invasion of Iraq. The vacuum and ensuing civil war that followed the toppling of Saddam Hussein were all about the power struggle between Sunni and Shia (not to mention hundreds of splinter groups on each side), and the ongoing instability because of this is something the Americans would have done well to anticipate. Although Saddam had a strangle hold on the power in Iraq, he was a Sunni, who are in the minority in Iraq. So when he was yanked out of power by the American-led coalition, what ensued was a power struggle that is still going on and blocking this war-torn nation from stability. It is becoming increasingly more clear that neither the US nor any other Western power will be able to bring an end to these hostilities that existed long before the first American soldier set foot on Iraqi soil.
For a concise and objective explanation of this epic struggle, I recommend you listen to this brief clip from PRI's The World.
And ISIS? That's yet another story. Stay tuned.
*You'll see different spellings of the prophet's name (e.g. Mohammed), as they are all approximate transcriptions from the Arabic.

I haven't posted about this since 2013, but the very first time I ever ran a Hideouts & Hoodlums campaign online (back in 2009!) was on rpol.net. I had some issues with the site over the years I ran the game there, but trusted that it was a forever archive that would save my game for future reference. I used the archive three years ago when I wrote up what happened in the first chapter/scenario of the campaign there.
But Rpol.net is not, apparently, a forever archive. Last year, I was dismayed to find it had been removed for sitting idle too long, and was gone forever. And for the most part, it still is. I have, however, found some pages I printed out in the past that I will add here.
This page is from the second chapter/scenario. It sadly, does not have all the players who were playing then represented on it.

NORMAN STREET 04/04/2016 Hi, looking for Brenda Crosby who lived with her mum in Aberdeen St. We were friends when I lived at The Cottage of Content in Norman St between 1968 and 1973 Thanks Moira firstname.lastname@example.com
NORMAN STREET 09/11/2015 I was born at Summerfield Hospital now known as City hospital I lived at 35 Norman Street until I was 9 or 10 I can remember Mr Mrs Brooke's they had a son and daughter can't remember the sons name but I can remember Susan also names that come to mind Jones and Veals also I remember the little shop in Carlisle Street the son was named Robert there was only Robert and his mom they worked the shop together he was still at school but helped out . My time in Norman Street was not always easy but I do remember the people would always look out for you and on bonfire nights we would all put our potatoes and veg in the fire and have a great time it was one of those nights everyone was out to have a great time. Linda Wood firstname.lastname@example.com
I am looking into my family history and have found that my Great Grandfather and his family lived at 33 Norman Street in 1911.
He was a serving Policeman at that time working in C Division from 1896 to 1921.
His name was Thomas Frederick Goodman. His daughter, my Grandmother, was Ida Mary Elizabeth Goodman born in BIrmingham in 1907. I recently visited Norman Street but it now appears only to be an access road for a new residential estate.
Any information or photos that you may be able to let me have of Norman Street in general and number 33 in particular, would be very helpful. Regards Ian Jones email@example.com
Oldish photos of Winson Green Road taken from Norman Street. The Smiths Arms was taken from No 4 Norman Street by John Holmes in the early 1960s. The last one taken in 1964 out side my old house.The two girls are my nieces. Hope this is of some interest
Bernrad Evans email@example.com
NORMAN STREET 31/10/2010 This drawing of the Winson Green end of Norman Street is the work of Eddie Wilson who lived up the terrace.
Eddie's friend, who sent the drawing to the web site, is Dennis Evans who lived in the house next to Jack Burnett's the hairdressing salon between 1929 and 1952. An other photograph Dennis sent us is on the schools page under Foundry Road School it is of the class of 1937/8. Dennis Evans - firstname.lastname@example.com
Only recently aware of your website having been sent your book Winson Green and Brookfields as a present, but think it is lovely bringing back memories.
My name is Dennis Evans and I was born at 8 Norman Street, Winson Green, in 1929 and lived in that house until 1952 when I married. I would really love to know if anyone could give me any information about Betty Evans (no relation) from Wellington Street, she had a sister, Minnie, and a brother, Arthur.
Also does anyone know the present whereabouts of my cousin - Joyce Valerie Parry (nee Smith) who was born and lived in Blackford Street, Winson Green from 1934 until about 1952.
I have been able to find the rest of our cousins, but not Joyce, so it would be lovely to find her.
Dennis Evans - firstname.lastname@example.com
Can anyone help me please.
I'm seeking information about the family McAllister – Robert Weir McAllister (my grandfather) married Lily Cutler in 1944. Marriage certificate states he was living on Norman Street at the time. He was a jeweller, presumably up the road at the Jewellery Quarter. His father was Duncan McAllister, who was a furnaceman, and unfortunately that's all the information I have on this side, any help from anyone who knew of this family would be really appreciated. With kind regards Fiona Harris email@example.com
Nice to see a mention of Norman St, but one of your correspondents stated The Cottage of Content was an M & B pub (see 14/02/03 entry). I lived in The Cottage from 1968 to 1973 and it was definitely Ansells! My dad was the manager Arthur Taylor and had always worked for Ansells, usually in Aston pubs.Does anyone remember Tony State and his mum Dora? Moira Taylor EMAIL ADDRES not supplied
06/09/09 As there is no contact address Bernard could not send the email below to Moira.
[ I have read the page regarding Moira Taylor she asked if anyone remembers Tony State and his mom Dora. Tony and I were friends when young, he had a brother named Jack who was a keen fisherman. Dora passed away leaving Tony & Jack at the same house Bernard Evans email@example.com ]
This is a great site to find out about old Winson Green, I am looking for any information/ photo's of Norman Street (where I was born in 1955) and of Peel Street where we moved to in around 1960 ish, me dad used to drink in the Sir Robert Peel which was directly over the road from our house, and we used to know a Mrs Tonks who used to keep a little shop, I lived in Norman and Peel Street with Dad and Mom Charles and Joan Giles and the clan, Charles, Robert, Carol, Lynn and Tony hope someone can help, as I am trying to include any info in me family history book.
Many thanks Patricia Sharratt (Nee Giles) Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
This is a long shot but worth a try!
I,m trying to trace my Grandfather or relatives,his name was Thomas Henry Hanson, who was a butcher by trade, and lived around 1910 onwards at 42 Norman Street , possibly working in a local butchers shop (Tays?). Little is known about him, he does not appear in the 1881or 1901 census, exept he married in 1903.and appeared in 1924at a the wedding of his daughter.Thanks for any help you may be able to offer .B.G.Dalton South firstname.lastname@example.com
I was born in Norman Street 11/63, then moved to Carlisle Street. I would be interested in writing something towards this site and will try and sort out some photo's. My mother, Ivy Dagless, was the projectionist at Winson Green Cinema. Thanks for a great site. Linda Richardson (nee Dagless)
NORMAN STREET 14/02/03. As it was 2003. You can quite clearly see some of the houses with there front doors straight on to the street. Just passed the parked car where the tree is sticking out was our house. At the bottom of the street is Dudley Road Hospital with a brick wall built to replace wooden gates.
I was born in Ladywood but we moved to Norman Street next to the M&B's Cottage Pub in about1944 (Dad wouldn't drink Ansell's) . When I was about three, my father George Butler worked in the Foundry at the Birmid in Smethwick, in those days the men walked to work a) there was no buses and b) you couldn't afford the fare if there was one, so you tried to get as close to your works as you could but you had to bear in mind the rent, and the pub was a bonus to dad, and that's not being disrespectful you will know that if you've worked in a foundry. Mom had two children myself age 4 years old and my sister 18 months older, not only did mom manager the house and children and the finances she worked as a press operator, that is on a hand machine throwing a big lever with a big heavy ball on it to press metal work out this was piece work so you worked hard to earn the pennies. Mom and dad were not unique, that was the way of life for all the families in that area and Smethwick. Our house was on the front of a back to back house. You came directly off the street into the one room down stairs which had a coal fire and a table with four chairs and perhaps one arm chair for your dad, (don't be court in it if he came in it was his chair), this led to a cellar head that had an old brown sink on it, no running water, or drainage, below the sink you had a slop bucket (were waste water went in) you would either tip this in the road when no one was looking or take it to the outside drain up a yard three doors away, you would also get your clean drinking water from the same yard in a very clean bucket you kept for this purpose. Also up this yard was the toilet block you used as there was no toilet in the house you shared this with the people who were joined to you on the back of the property, and the toilet paper consisted of newspaper. Again up the yard was a brew house were you washed the clothes on the day you were allocated, you hadn't better use someone else day you would soon know about it, the brew house had a coal fire and a boiler with and old fashioned mangle. Upstairs of the house was the main bedroom for mom and dad and above that was an attic for my sister and myself with a skylight in the roof, no heating what so ever in the bedrooms.
More than once I went to school with cardboard in my shoes to cover up the holes in the soles, and patches on the seat of my short trousers. I remember my Uncle Jack who was a plumber putting water and drainage in those properties, we did feel posh.
Money was tight many a time mom would be out when the rent man came i.e. hiding in the house, she used to make toffee apples to sell at the door, she would give us one to go outside to eat to get the other kids interested to go and buy one off her, in those days husbands gave their wife's a certain amount of money and they would have to manage. Mom would use a flit spray and D.D.T., which is banned to fumigate the house for bugs, those old houses encouraged them. For a bath we used to go to the Municipal Baths in Bacchus Road, I hated the man who filled the bath up he would put the hot water in take away the tap and as he was leaving he would start shouting at you to get out quickly and don't leave a mess.
Do you think it was hard? - "we knew no better"- there was always food on the table and we had good Christmas's making the decorations ourselves out of crepe paper and flour made up as glue, dad would make lead soldiers on the open fire using a small ladle and moulds and sell them-we were happy like most of the kids in Winson Green. Alan Butler

paper, 275 pages, $18.95
When Marcus packed for Florida, he harbored no illusions about what would happen when he got there. His father's liver soon would fail, and, without a transplant, he couldn't survive the week. "Why waste a miracle on an elderly man like me?" his father scoffed. He pooh-poohed the new liver as if it were a slightly used sports car Marcus insisted he buy. "At least let me put your name on the waiting list," Marcus said, but his father blew raspberries through the phone. "Give that same liver to someone young, and he or she could get another fifty years out of the goddamn thing."
And so, with a heavy carry-on and an even heavier heart, Marcus flew to West Palm Beach. He rented a car and drove to the hospital in Boca Raton where his father had been taken after his last collapse. As he checked in at Registration and followed the arrows to the room, he prepared for the likelihood that in another few days he would be arranging his father's funeral. What he couldn't have predicted was that first he would be called on to arrange his father's bris.
"Your bris, Pop?" Marcus laughed, although his father rarely joked; for a former hotelkeeper in the Catskills, he was a singularly humorless man. His request that Marcus find a mohel who would circumcise him before he died could only be an effect of the drugs he was taking or the poison seeping from his liver. "Don't worry, Pop. All of that was taken care of a long time ago."

Having lost his job as opposition leader at the end of 2009 because of his support for carbon pricing, Malcolm Turnbull almost quit politics. By 2011 he was fully back in the fray. With climate change again/still a hot issue, Turnbull was on the ABC programme Lateline, on this day 6 years ago, explaining that
if you want to have a long-term solution to abating carbon emissions and to achieve – if you want to have a long-term technique of cutting carbon emissions, you know, in a very substantial way to the levels that the scientists are telling us we need to do by mid-century to avoid dangerous climate change, then a direct action policy where the Government – where industry was able to freely pollute, if you like, and the Government was just spending more and more taxpayers' money to offset it, that would become a very expensive charge on the budget in the years ahead.
Well, thank goodness that didn't happen, eh?

Government drive to help cut salt consumption by a quarter

Financial recovery plans and energy security on top of the agenda
The European Council expressed confidence in the ability of the EU to tackle the financial and economic crisis. Reviewing the considerable fiscal stimulus now being injected into the EU economy (over €400 bn), it emphasised that concerted action and coordination were an essential part of Europe's strategy for recovery and emphasised that Europe would do all that was necessary to restore growth. It further emphasised that the single market was central to making the recession in Europe shorter and less severe. Stressing the need to get lending flowing again to businesses and households, it agreed to speed up agreement on pending legislative proposals on the financial sector. In June, the European Council will take first decisions to strengthen EU financial sector regulation and supervision, to be based on Commission proposals following thorough discussion in the Council on the de Larosière report. Based on the EU's own experience and desire to contribute significantly to shaping the future international governance of the financial sector, it defined the Union's position with a view to the G20 Summit in London on 2 April.
The European Council also reverted to the issue of energy security. It specifically agreed on orientations for setting up a crisis mechanism to deal with disruptions of supplies. It took further steps in preparation of the Copenhagen Conference on climate change. Finally, it agreed a Declaration launching the Eastern Partnership.

OFICINAA (Silvia Benedito + Alexander Häusler)
Kindergarten LaLe Kita
The project is a daycare and preschool center for a small city in the south of Germany. It hosts six classrooms that accommodate 12 to 25 children, ranging from three to six-years old. The plan is organized around a set of opaque, fixed objects that provide structure and contain programs for permanent and/or private functions (such as bathrooms, administrative offices, and lockers). Numerous pieces of large furniture (tables, storage, and room dividers) enable flexibility in the space over time, as they can be moved depending on needs. The idea is to originate an inviting space to play and learn. A play-loop and a tricycle-loop intersect the fixed objects and work to organize the hours of play. Its extension offers a series of other programs such as gardens, hills, spaces to hide, jumping structures, slides, and water tables. This play-loop provides a continuous path, like a story that merges the learning spaces with the indoor/outdoor play. The syncopated organization of the rooms overlaps the organic and fluid space of play and circulation. Moveable partitions allow teachers to extend the teaching space from inside to outside, during warm days.
About The Designer
OFICINAA is an award-winning architecture and urbanism office that addresses design with a multidisciplinary approach. Our expertise in different fields of design allows the engagement of a wide range of tools in every project we embrace. Our projects are distinct on scale, program, and medium, including architecture to urban planning, domestic to civic, and installation to video.

- Page 1 BlackBerry 7130g Review
- Page 2 Review
- Page 3 BlackBerry 7130g Review
- Page 4 BlackBerry 7130g Review
My usual gripes about BlackBerry email still stand. It can be confusing that all your emails are date stamped with the time you downloaded them to the BlackBerry and not the time they were actually sent. It's also annoying that you can only "delete prior" from a date bar in your inbox – I just don't understand why you can't delete prior to any point in your inbox. Finally, I'd like the ability to turn on the GSM antenna, but NOT turn on email. Sometimes I'd like to be able to browse a web page or send a text message without having to receive 300 emails.
Those moans aside, I maintain that the BlackBerry email client is superb. The ability to forward pretty much any email account to a device in your pocket never ceases to impress me. Of course large corporate entities will no doubt make use of the BlackBerry Enterprise server solution, but for me the real jewel in the crown is that any individual with an email account can use a BlackBerry.
The screen is a huge improvement over the 7100, but obviously it's not quite as large as the display on the 8700. At 2.4in the screen is a decent size considering the dimensions of the device as a whole, while the 240 x 260 resolution makes image quality impressive. As with the 8700, photos look very good on the 7130g, but also like the 8700 the lack of built-in camera somewhat negates this feature. RIM insists that its corporate clients specifically don't want an integrated camera, but to me the obvious solution would be two BlackBerry models – one for consumers and one for ultra-paranoid corporate types.
The 7130g supports Bluetooth 2.0, but this can only be used for headsets and hands free kits. RIM has disabled the Bluetooth file transfer capability, once again citing the fact that corporate clients don't want employees to be able to transfer files between mobile devices.
Obviously the 7130g can synchronise with your PC so your contacts and diary data will be with you at all times. Therefore sending an email is just a matter of pulling the address out of your contacts list, rather than having to manually type an address in.
If you want to create documents with the 7130g you'll be glad to see eOffice in evidence. This mobile suite includes a word processor and spreadsheet package. Obviously you're not going to create very long text documents or very complicated spreadsheets on the move, but both packages work well and give the true mobile user a handy set of pocket applications.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

I agree with Paul: PRD should focus on rule interchange, and not on class descriptions. Is it true that there are several formats to describe classes on the shelf? I don't know them very well, but at least there is UML. Doesn't it use an XML format to describe the classes? We should first look at coupling with existing formats. With PRD, I rather understand that a receiver of a PRD document (containing rules) knows how to interpret the names in the rules. It has a mechanism to resolve the meaning of the names. The rule document is weakly typed (the names have o type or domain information), the receiver is responsible for that. What do you think?

However, your use case, translating from an RDF model (presumably with an RDFS interpretation) into a Java object model, makes explicit the idea that RIF = rule + term/fact interchange. This somewhat extends the scope of RIF from "rule interchange based on some assumptions about a data / object model" to "rule and data / object model interchange". My concern is really that this could be a major undertaking. My prior assumption was that, for PRD anyway, we would initially consider something like XSL/XML+RIF interchange, and maybe extend to other object/data mechanisms, and possibly between such mechanisms, in future versions, as required.

016 - Butternut Squash & Leek Soup
016 - Butternut Squash & Leek Soup
Butternut Squash & Leek Soup
4 1/2 lbs. butternut squash, halved lengthwise
3 Tbsps. extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsps. unsalted butter
2 large leeks, white and tender green parts only, coarsely chopped
7 small sage leaves or 1 tsp. dried sage
5 cups chicken broth
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
About 3 Tbsps. chopped chives
8 slices of bacon, fried crisp and chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the squash, cut side down,
on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake until tender, about
40 minutes. Let cool slightly. Using a spoon, scoop out and
discard the seeds. Scrape the squash from the skin into a large
nonreactive bowl and set aside.
Meanwhile, in large heavy saucepan or flameproof casserole,
warm the olive oil and melt the butter over low heat. Add the
leeks and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and
browned, about 40 minutes. Discard the sage leaves, if using.
Stir in the broth and the squash. Increase the heat to moderate
and simmer for 20 minutes. In a blender or food processor, puree
the soup in batches until smooth. Pour the soup back into the pan
and season it with the salt and pepper.
To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each serving with
1 tablespoon of sour cream, 1 teaspoon chopped chives, and a
sprinkling of the bacon.
Serves 8.

Taste for Pleasure, The Wines of Bibi Graetz!
At the HK Wine Fair last month, I began a new series of wine courses that I call "Taste For Pleasure". Here, the focus is obviously on pleasure, but I want to tell stories about the wines so that participants can relate to the emotions of the winemakers, the beauty of his region and the traditions and culture that invariably influence the final style and quality of the wine.
The wines of Bibi Graetz were perfect to test this new concept for Bibi is firstly an artist and his vision of the world reflects beautifully on his wines in more ways than one.
An arts graduate from Academia dell'Arte in Florence, he started making wine in the late 90's and from the outset, he decided to focus on the traditional grapes of Tuscany with a special attention to very old vines. From his own 30 hectares, he has added and extra 50 rented from various landowners in the Tuscan regions of Maremma, the island of Giglio, and Montalcino. An interesting aspect of his wines is that all labels are designed by him and they are inspired from the sun of Tuscany.
We tasted his Testamatta, which loosely translates at "Hot Head", made with old Sangiovese vines. It was striking how different the 2013 and the 2012 were reflecting the philosophy of Graetz for minimal intervention in order to let the vintage character shine through in the most transparent way possible.
Although Testamatta is Graetz flagship wine, it is the Soffocone that was the big hit during our tasting. Perhaps because the original label of this wine was banned in the USA? Certainly, the unexpected story behind the label of this cult wine attracted a lot of attention from the participants of all 3 masterclasses we ran with this wine!
Over 3 masterclasses, we tasted:
- Casamatta Bianco 2015
- Bugia 2014
- Casamatta Rosso 2015
- Soffocone 2014
- Testamatta 2013
- Testamatta 2012
