European Human Hair Wigs
European Human Hair Wigs are made from Caucasian sources in Europe. The hair is therefore lighter and thinner per strand, when compared to Asian hair. It is also much more expensive to acquire.
European Human Hair Wigs need to be trimmed, thinned and styled before you wear it for the first time. After wearing it on numerous occasions you will be able to re-set the style when needed.
The difference between European Human Hair Wigs and synthetic wigs is that synthetic ones do not last as long as European Human Hair Wigs, and nothing looks more natural than a beautifully styled human hair wig.
Pre-styled European human hair wigs are now available from select manufacturers. They will not require styling before wearing, although some styles may need a bit of trimming.
You can save money when you purchase European Human Hair Wigs online. Most hair salons charge more than the prices you can find at a cheap online wig store. You will save the most money when you know exactly what style you want and you have a hair stylist in your area that can help you with the initial setting and styling.
When looking to purchase a human hair wig online, look for a store that has a good exchange policy. Some charge a service fee for wig exchanges so be sure to check their policy before you purchase. They do not allow you to wear the wig, only to try it on. The wig must have the tags on in their original manner and look brand new.
Don't be surprised if the wig you order doesn't look exactly like the picture you see online. Most of the wigs in the photos have been trimmed and styled by professional hairstylists to fit the faces of the models that are wearing them.
That is why you should take your new wig to a wig stylist that will cut and style the wig while it is on your head. In some cases, the bangs that you see in the online catalog must be cut in. That is the easiest part of wig styling. In general, shorter wigs require less styling. Human hair wigs are therefore not ready-to-wear. They all come in a bit too long and need some trimming to achieve a perfect look.
Believe it or not you can change the color of your human hair wig. But, just as it is hard on your own hair, color changing is stressful to the wig's hair and should be kept to a minimum. Color lightening and bleaching is more stressful than darkening, and is not recommended. You can have human hair wefts sewn in to give it a lighter look.
Making your wig slightly darker however is easily done, and Pantene products are recommended for that purpose. For these reasons, it is best to purchase a wig that is closest to the color you want, or slightly lighter.
When caring for your human hair wig we always recommend a line of shampoo and conditioners that have low soap concentration. High soap concentration strips wigs of their natural oils. Pantene Pro-V conditioner: try the blue bottle for color-treated hair is an excellent choice. Velcro rollers should be used when storing curly or wavy wigs. Never brush out a dry curly wig.

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C)
A subduction is a main process for the circulation of fluids from deep sea to crust and mantle. The fluids trapped as pore fluids or in hydrous minerals of oceanic crust or overlying sediments are released during an early subduction. Released fluids mostly pass through the accretionary complex and have physical and chemical effects upon it.In this research project, we have succeeded in elucidating a series of mass transfer by fluids. The results are as follows.(1) Oxygen isotope ratios of shallow parts of the accretionary complex (<10km depth) are not greatly influenced by fluids.(2) In medium parts of accretionaly complex (10-15km depth), fluids pass through shear zones and give rise to mass transfer of the vicinity of shear zones such as out-of-sequence thrusts.(3) In deep part of accretionaly complex, fluid released by dehydration pass through along the lithological boundaries and regionally give oxygen isotopic alterations.(4) Oxygen isotopic ratios of pelitic and basic rocks are the largest in medium parts of the accretionary complex. On the other hand, oxygen isotopic ratios of calcareous rocks decreases with increasing depth.(5) In shallow accretionary complex, domains of isotopic alterations are smaller than a size of hand speciman, whereas in deep one, those are a mappable order.

I spent the past week in Dhaka, Bangladesh as the first part of my month in Southeast Asia. This week I was exploring Bangladesh's political and cultural history with a special focus on the place of ethnic & religious minorities in this country on university-sponsored research. I've just arrived in Bangkok and am transitioning into the second part of the trip exploring the intersections of religion and grassroots democracy activism in a Buddhist context in Thailand and Burma. I'm excited; will hopefully be able to post on this later.
Bangladesh is a rapidly developing delta country with all the relevant wonderful and unfortunate elements. Bangladesh has rapidly rising inequality, with wealth concentrated in Dhaka; in this country money is king and political power is a means to get more. The country is green and beautiful and the culture is an astonishing mix of Hindu culture along with elements of the Muslim cultures of Pakistan and the Arab countries as well as Western trends. In the narrow streets of Puran Dhaka (now only a small part of Dhaka; most of the city was built post-1960 and even in old Dhaka, 1920 is 'old') there are small Hindu temples alongside bookstalls and large painted mosques. Social relations in Dhaka are like those in any city, a mixture of camaraderie and self-interest (this is not based on any scholarship on the matter!).
I don't know how much Dhaka represents the 'real' Bangladesh and I wouldn't feel comfortable making any comments about the country, not having seen past the city. Outside of Dhaka, where people tend to live in distinct communities based on religion or class, is also where things get interesting on the minorities issue. Over 2/3 of Bangladesh's religious minorities have emigrated since Partition, so the number and size of communities have shrunk a great deal. In some areas, Muslims and minorities have lived integrated for generations, and in Kolna this led to a mass protest against the destruction of one Hindu temple a few years ago. In other areas they are more segregated and political events or malicious self-interest (motivated with a dose of religious nationalism) have produced attacks on homes, businesses, and temples that have contributed to the exodus of minorities. I spoke with several minority activists while in Dhaka (some very emotional conversations) and am looking forward to visiting other parts of the country to understand this issue more. It's one thing to read reports of violence against minorities and discuss legalities but visiting the relevant communities, even if I can't actually talk with people as a non-Bengali speaker, and talking with more NGO people, will help to make these ideas come to life.
One other note: it's one thing to talk about homelessness in New York but discussing begging in South Asia is a whole 'nother matter! I remember experiencing a bit of culture shock with this in India this winter, challenging my informal policy of 'always give.' I never moved about in Dhaka on my own and was with people who would always tell beggars to go away. The challenge here, I think, is that there are usually so many beggars in one area that if you give to one, you'll be swarmed, especially by the children. When I was approached I would always smile and talk to the kids, and I gave a few times. (I received some money on Eid and wanted to give it away before I left.) I heard from a few people in Dhaka that one should never give because it's a racket, and one friend also felt he had to justify this by saying that he gives to NGOs. (One can question the effectiveness of this, since most NGOs in Bangladesh don't deal with urban beggars!) For those of you who have traveled in these countries, how do you generally deal with beggars?

After 21 painful years of negotiations following the sabotaged Kyoto Climate Agreement, 191 countries finally found agreement on a new strategy to confront climate change and agreed to the Paris Climate Accord last December. Since then, the Paris Accord has been ratified by 82 nations with sufficient emissions to trigger the early launch of the Accord. It finally took effect on November 4th.
The goals of the Accord are to reduce greenhouse emissions, help countries adapt to wrenching changes brought about by a warming climate and finance projects in developing nations that repair damage wrought by climate change. The explicit goal is for all nations to work together to hold global average temperature increases to well below 3.6 °F (2 °C) above pre-industrial levels in an effort to avoid the vast damages caused by dangerous climate change.
President-elect Trump has vowed to pull the United States out of this historic agreement, and rescind the Clean Power Plan that requires coal-fired power plants to cut carbon pollution. That would be a tragedy for our country and our families. It would also be a huge lost opportunity to capitalize on the economic advantages of leading the transition to safe, clean energy.
Pennsylvania has a significant responsibility to cut carbon pollution. As the third largest carbon emitter in the nation, Pennsylvania produces about 2 days of the year's worldwide total emissions. But Pennsylvania has much to gain from aggressively pursuing efforts to cut carbon emissions by committing to an ambitious effort to clean up our energy production by investing in renewable energy and energy efficiency.
Pennsylvania already has 66,000 people working in clean energy industries – more than those employed in the coal and gas industries combined. With the right mix of state policies including strengthening our renewable energy and energy efficiency standards, giving renewable energy full access to the electricity grid, and fairly paying homeowners for the excess power they generate from rooftop solar power plants, we could significantly increase the jobs and the economic impact of clean energy.
But right now, that's not the path our misdirected state legislature is taking. Under the influence of the shale gas and coal interests, the legislature has repeatedly tied the hands of the Wolf administration and the DEP to work on a rational climate plan or increase our renewable energy standards. They have attempted to significantly weaken our successful energy conservation program.
Pennsylvania clearly risks heading down a blind alley by investing in the wrong energy path promising enormous risks and stranded fossil fuel assets. There are 32 additional gas-powered plants proposed for Pennsylvania in various stages of consideration, development, and construction. The planning assumption going into these new plants is not based on growing urgency for constraining carbon emissions but is based solely on sufficient recoverable gas reserves and traditional capitalization considerations over the expected lifetime of new gas combustion turbines up to about 60 years. These assets along with the new pipelines, compressor stations and other gas appurtenances will not be viable in short order as we approach climate tipping points.
The stakes could not be higher. Thirty-one highly respected American scientific organizations recently came together to warn Congress: "If we are to avoid the most severe impacts of climate change, emissions of greenhouse gasses must be dramatically reduced. In addition, adaptation will be necessary to address those impacts that are already unavoidable." The well-known former director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, Jim Hansen has gone so far as to warn, "2 degrees of warming is actually a prescription for long-term disaster".
The Paris Accord is an important first step to move 191 nations in the direction of addressing our common future to avoid a long and growing list of catastrophic climate consequences. The Clean Power Plan offers a specific way forward, and Pennsylvania is in an enviable position to capitalize on the new economic development that a transition to clean energy offers. Working together we can and we must do our part as responsible stewards. To walk away from this vital work is both immoral and stupid. (Follow this on pennfuture.org)

#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream
Last night in bed I worried about waking
to such dire predictions of wind chilling
When I woke the cold came true, it hit
and hurt when I opened the door -
the dogs went out to pee. I bundled
myself, in layers of itchy, I want to/but wait
'til it's easier, except this December weather
is the start of uncomfortable -
this warning must be followed outdoors, even
where I may be granted, along sheets of river iced
an act of grace, an absence of whipping
no ferocity blowing me back inside, so I may learn
to belong to a season of resistance, overcoming
the tread, like cement, a trail of uncrackable fact.

|Track at start of walk
To reach the walk start I drove out of Hobart to Sorrell and turned left on the A3 and headed to Runnymede where I turned onto the Woodsdale Road and then after some time onto New Country Marsh Road. The walk start was about 5.1 kms. down this road at a locked gate with just enough room to park one car.

This was an easy walk through a typical forestry area, and although most of it has been logged in the past, it is regenerating and providing a good habitat for various animals. I did see Tasmanian Devil scats as well. Most of the walk could be ridden on a mountain bike except for the scrub bash sections, but there are plenty of tracks to choose from and the lack of evidence of vehicular traffic is pleasing.

Use this meditation to discover your true calling in life, and repeat it whenever you feel the urge to pause, reflect, and listen to your inner wisdom.
Why are we here?
How can you find your calling? Ah, life's greatest mystery. The whopper of all questions. Discovering our calling (or our mission/purpose/raison d'être) is a huge part of the human experience; we spend most of our lives seeking this particular truth, and we're pretty desperate to know the answer.
We all want to know why we're here on the planet, in the hopes of finding a sense of deeper meaning and purpose in our lives.
It's so painful to know there's something great inside of us that we could (and should) be giving or expressing in the world, but we just can't figure it out.
Luckily, we don't need to – the answer lies within. We already know what we're here to do. Our inner wisdom holds the answer, and all we need to do is learn how to tune in and listen.
Find your calling to create a beautiful life
Tapping into your calling is amazing for many reasons – including the fact that it suddenly makes decision making so darn easy. When you're aligned with your calling, you can base your decisions for each opportunity on whether the outcome will serve to propel this forward (sign me up, babyyy), or whether it won't (keep walkin', sunshine).
For example, I see my calling in life as to learn what I can about human happiness, and to teach what I learn to others. This massively takes the pressure off – my only job in this world is to learn, and to teach. Therefore, if I'm learning or teaching, I'm doing my job ?
I also see it as part of my mission to embody what I teach; so if I'm banging on about how great it is to socialise more consciously and talking about what I've learned going sober, you better believe I won't be out getting drunk as a skunk that Saturday night.
We also have to remember take action once we have an inkling or "intuitive nudge" about what our calling might be. We can only ever know if something is right for us by trying it out – if you get this feeling, start by making one small step in that direction, and see how it feels.
TRUTH: 10 minute meditation practice to find your calling
If you haven't meditated before, check out The Ultimate Guide To Meditation For Beginners to get started.
In this practice, we'll be reflecting on our life and asking ourselves questions in order to discover our true calling. We'll aim to go into this practice without any specific expectations, other than to listen to the response we get from our inner wisdom.
Your answers to the questions might change during the meditation, and they may change over time as you repeat this practice. The key is to keep listening to what comes up, and allowing yourself to use what you've learnt to correct course and create a life that's true to your authentic self.
Here's how to do it
Download your free guided version of this meditation from my resource library.
1. Take a seat, set a timer (for 10 minutes, or longer if it feels right), and gently close your eyes.
2. Settle in and connect to your current experience. Notice your breathing, relax your shoulders and jaw, and observe how your body's feeling in this moment.
3. Ask yourself, "how does it feel to be my true self?". Allow space for whatever response may come up. You can imagine you're dropping a pebble into a well, and watching the ripples of the water, accepting whatever form they take.
4. Repeat the process with the following questions: "When do I feel most true to myself? How does it feel not to be true to myself? When do I l feel least true to myself? What am I really here to do?".
5. Observe the answers as they float around your mind. Notice how your body feels as a result of asking these questions, and if you can feel your intuition pulling you in a certain direction.
Feel free to repeat this meditation as often as you like to deepen your connection to your inner wisdom, and practice listening to your intuition.

Jade is known as the dream stone. It enables the understanding of dreams and beams love, courage, chastity and wisdom. It provides comforting energy, reduces negativity and balances emotions. Works with the Heart Chakra.
Malas are prayer beads, which are used for keeping count while reciting, chanting, or mentally repeating a mantra. Mantra means "sacred sound." They are used for different purposes linked to working with mind. In addition to serving a counting function, malas facilitate one-pointed concentration and serve as a tool for connecting, body, speech and mind during one's meditation practice. Malas of 108 beads are used in Tibetan Buddhism, corresponding to the 108 worldly sins that each bead symbolically dissolves.

#2133: X-Men #17
We are getting spectacularly close to having a complete set of all the books in our corpus (indeed, I'm expecting a FedEx shipment with some of the final books to arrive either today or tomorrow). But there's a big caveat: I think we're getting close.
As I mentioned to Ben a couple of weeks ago, we have to anticipate a certain number of mistakes that will necessitate re-purchasing. Due to the constant renumbering and relaunching of series, and the migration of titles between publishers, errors have crept in to our buying. Not a ton of them, but enough to be annoying. Fortunately, they haven't been too expensive, and I was even able to trade a number of the comics that were purchased in error for credit on one of our costliest titles.
I do, nonetheless, live with a certain kind of fear about mistakes in purchasing - or, worse, mistakes in our sampling frame itself. This morning kicked out one of the latter.
Comic book #2133 is X-Men #17. This is the second X-Men series, launched in late-1991 with Jim Lee as the artist. Lee had already left for his own projects at Image by 1993; this issue is drawn by Andy Kubert. As I move through the coding that we're doing right now, I'm going backwards in time and also backwards alphabetically through the years, so this was one of our first books from 1993. Anyway, I looked at the indicia to make sure that I was in 1993 and this is what I saw:
That evinced a little panic.
It didn't seem plausible to me, because I remember the history of the launch of these titles and the founding of Image, and I couldn't imagine that Kubert had taken over the title by February 1992. When I looked at the front cover things got worse. That 1962-1992 Spider-man box seemed to confirm that I'd bought the wrong X-Men #17. Plausible, because if you type "X-Men 17" into the search bar at MyComicShop you get a couple of dozen hits. However, their database claims that this issue is from 1993 - contrary to the front cover and the indicia. I began to think that they had to have it wrong down there in Texas.
So I looked at the GCD - where there's an even greater number of X-Men #17s due to international editions. They too say that this is from 1993. They couldn't both be wrong, surely?
Overstreet notes that X-Men #1 came out in October 1991, which made sense to me - I can remember the store I was in the day that it shipped (I recall a business man buying an entire box. 100 copies? 200? MyComicShop shows them to be worth $3.20 today a gain of 45 cents per issue in inflation adjusted dollars - almost two cents per year gain!),
Finally, the Standard Catalogue noted that it was cover-dated February 1993 but that the indicia was wrong.
So, we're using all four sources to determine that the comic book is wrong about the comic book.
Facts are funny things in the history of this industry.

Believe - Christmas Unicorn Card Featuring Pinkfresh Studio Magical Unicorn
Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by. I'm so glad you're here.
Today I'm sharing a fun, Christmas unicorn card. (I know you're thinking it's too early for Christmas cards...but I'm longing for some Christmas spirit and weather!) I have to be honest, I debated on whether or not I should even share this project. After I made it, I found out that a couple of the products I used have been discontinued. I took a poll on Instagram and 90% voted for me to share the project, despite the fact that a couple of the products have been discontinued.
I love this card. It is a variation on a card that I shared back in April, featuring the same Magical Unicorn stamp set from Pinkfresh Studio. If you want to check that out, click HERE. I've added some antlers to my unicorn...and managed to combine a couple of my favorite things in to one card....Christmas and Unicorns.
The Antlers die and the Believe die are from the Essentials By Ellen line. Unfortunately, these two dies have been discontinued. I have tried to link similar products below. The Antler die that is linked below is slightly larger than the one I used in this project...I want to give you fair warning of that fact. I also linked some similar sentiment dies that might work in place of the Believe die cut.
I'll walk you through the creation of this card in today's video tutorial. Be sure to check that out. If you want to watch today's video in HD on my YouTube channel, click HERE to head over there. Don't forget to like this video and subscribe while you're there!
I think that this Christmas unicorn may be my spirit animal. ;) I've included lots of photos in the gallery below so you can see all of her sparkly, fun details.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed this project. Until next time, I hope you have a fabulous day!

18 ai They dogged our steps
so that we could not walk in our streets;
aj our end drew near; our days were numbered,
for our end had come.
19 Our pursuers were ak swifter
than the eagles in the heavens;
they chased us on the mountains;
they lay in wait for us in the wilderness.
20 al The breath of our nostrils, am the Lord's anointed,
was captured an in their pits,
of whom we said, ao "Under his shadow
we shall live among the nations."
21 ap Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom,
you who dwell in aq the land of Uz;
but to you also ar the cup shall pass;
you shall become drunk and strip yourself bare.
22 as The punishment of your iniquity, O daughter of Zion, is accomplished;
he will keep you in exile no longer; ▼
▼Or he will not exile you again
but au your iniquity, O daughter of Edom, he will punish;
he will uncover your sins.

Sports Nutrition: Carotenoids And Visual Performance
Athletes are always looking for a way to take their game to the next level. Many seek a sports performance edge through innovative strength and agility training. Others invest in sports camps or the latest athletic gear or clothing.
But while most coaches, trainers and athletes recognise the importance of nutrition in sports performance, a key factor that sometimes is overlooked is the effect of nutrition on the eyes and on visual skills that are important for sports performance. Given that our vision drives nearly all physical activity in most sports, excellent visual acuity and dynamic vision skills can be huge advantages for otherwise equally matched athletes of all ages and skill levels.
And recent research suggests the most beneficial nutritional supplements for sports performance should include something many people aren't familiar with: carotenoids.
What Are Carotenoids?
Here are some key facts about carotenoids: Carotenoids are natural pigments that give leafy greens and colorful fruits and veggies their green, yellow, orange and red colors. About 600 carotenoids have been identified in nature; but only about 50 are found in foods, and only three carotenoids are present in the eye.
Carotenoids act as antioxidants and protect cells from the danger of free radicals that are produced in the body during physical activity. (Free radicals also are produced by stress, inflammation, UV rays from sunlight, pollution, cigarette smoke and just our normal body metabolism.)
In addition to affecting sports performance, the buildup of free radicals in the body can damage DNA, fats and proteins. And it can affect recovery from the wear and tear on the body from sports activity and sports-related injuries.
Besides carotenoids, other antioxidant substances that are important for sports nutrition include vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E and bioflavonoids.
As mentioned above, despite the high number and wide variety of carotenoids found in nature, only three are found in the eye.
These eye carotenoids are:
- Lutein
- Zeaxanthin
- Meso-zeaxanthin
These three carotenoids are concentrated in the macula, which is the most sensitive part of the retina in the back of the eye. The macula is responsible for visual acuity and color vision. It also is essential for contrast sensitivity, glare reduction, photostress recovery (reduced light sensitivity) and visual reaction time — tasks that are essential for optimum sports performance.
Together, lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin comprise the protective "macular pigment" of the eye.
In addition to its importance in sports performance, the macular pigment also plays a role in reducing the risk of macular degeneration later in life.
(More in our next article next Monday)
Very important: Always make sure you discuss and make decisions about your eye care based upon a formal appointment with your optician.

The suspected terrorist driver in the Barcelona van attack is thought to have used Europe's open borders to leave Spain and go on the run.
Spanish police believe Younes Abouyaaqoub, the only fugitive still at large after the attack, has slipped across the border into France unnoticed.
The Moroccan national, 22, is suspected of mowing down pedestrians on Barcelona's Las Ramblas promenade, killing 13 and injuring 120.
Joaquim Forn, head of home affairs in Catalonia's regional government, told a radio station "everything indicates" Mr. Abouyaaqoub was behind the wheel during the attack.
Police are also investigating claims he later killed a Spanish male while hijacking his car for use in the getaway, but they have not confirmed a link.
Pau Perez Villan, 35, was found dead from a stab wound in his white Ford Focus. The car had been driven through a police checkpoint on the outskirts of the city. Police fired ten times at the vehicle but the driver got away on foot.
The 12-member terror cell thought responsible for Thursday's attack has now been broken up. A number were shot dead by police as they launched a second attack in the town of Cambrils, and two are thought to have died during an explosion at a suspected bomb factory in the town.
Las fotos revelan que el terrorista de la furgoneta de La Rambla huyó por la Boquería https://t.co/AbGmMXMwqK Imágenes exclusivas de EL PAÍS
— EL PAÍS (@el_pais) August 21, 2017
"With open borders in the EU the terrorist could by now be almost anywhere. Remember the Berlin killer was found in Italy", commented former UKIP leader Nigel Farage.
Mr. Farage was referring to Anis Amri, a Tunisian failed asylum seeker who was inspired by Islamic State to attack a Christmas market in the German capital in December 2016. He fled to Italy, where he was shot dead by police.
Mr. Abouyaaqoub's credit card was used to rent the vans that the Barcelona terrorists were planning to pack with explosives and use in the attacks.
Spanish newspaper El Pais has now published CCTV footage of the suspected terrorists withdrawing money in the days before the terror attacks.
Two other vans were discovered in Vic, about 44 miles north of Barcelona and in Ripoll, where most of the terrorist cell lived. Police also discovered a motorbike belonging to Abouyaaqoub in the town.

Dear Praying Friends,
As we are getting ready to fly back to the U.S. after spending more than a month in Hungary of which two weeks at "SpeakOut" camp, we are full of mixed feelings. We've enjoyed seeing how God CONTINUES to work in and beyond Hungary through the ministry we had the privilege to lead for so many years. (You can see direct impact of SpeakOut camp on the first picture above). God continues to add believers to the Church and the number of laborers is growing, too. We met with most of the staff personally while we were back, Gabor had a chance to give a talk to the students and staff at SpeakOut, and Edina could personally encourage her former disciples.
Reka, who was a student at the 1st camper week at SpeakOut wrote this:
"Woooooooooooooow! This is the best camp I have ever been to. I will be always coming back here. I will remember it forever. What was my favorite? Everything. What am I going to miss? The atmosphere, full with acceptance and love, everyone is so friendly with the other and we could have a really heart-felt relationship with the tutors. I had a wonderful time! Thank you for everyone. We love you! We will remember it forever! I have to tell you I felt like SpeakOut is my home, and it's a world that I only thought it exist in my dreams. But it is great that it's true. I am coming to week 3 as well!"
About 15 years ago a couple (Attila and Eva, 1st picture on the left) came to a YTL symposium we held for educators. They were not educators, he is a car mechanic, but enthusiastic believers who wanted to reach their community and get the gospel to high school students. After they got trained using the YTL curriculum, they went back to their town, Esztergom and started to lead YTL clubs in high schools. They were doing that faithfully for years. This became a key engine for their church-planting efforts. About 7 years ago they led a young high-school girl, Viki to the Lord and they baptized her, followed her up in her new faith. Viki later moved to Budapest and started to get involved in our local YTL campus ministry. Now, Viki (2nd picture on the right: Edina and Viki) served as staff at 'SpeakOut' for already 3rd time, and her dream is to start an orphanage in a 3rd world country.
What an awesome work of God! A seed sown 15 years ago by mobilizing and equipping 1 couple, a car mechanic to penetrate the education domain is bearing fruit in and through a young girls life! And who knows how God will use her in the future? YOUR PRAYERS AND SUPPORT CONTINUES TO BEAR FRUIT FOR GOD'S KINGDOM!
IMPORTANT TO PRAY FOR: The translation of the YTL curriculum into English is in good progress. While in Hungary we were able to work with the translator and the translation into English will be ready by the end of September!!! After that a HUGE work of editing will be required and we hope to have many volunteers to help with that!
OUR 1ST SUMMER PROJECT THIS YEAR WAS 'IN THE CITY FOR THE CITY' BACK IN JUNE IN KC (we wrote about that in our pervious email). HERE YOU CAN SEE IT'S IMPACT IN NUMBERS, TOO.
Our time back in Hungary wAS great, but challenging too. Taking care of our parents and family brings huge challenges. It's hard for our kids that we are so scattered and it's an emotional roller-coster for us all to say so many 'good-byes'. All 3 of them continue to express this: "Where is my home?" We are thankful that they handle this with maturity and they continue to trust in the Lord.
- On August 4th we fly back to KC and that's when Rahel will arrive home from London, too. After she has finished her exams at med-school in Scotland, she got an offer from King's College London to work in a scientific research during the summer. It was a very demanding job in a lab, but she loved it. Can't wait to finally see her!
- Renato continues to stay in Hungary until Aug 21st before he returns to KC. He signed up going to the Army in the U.S. for two years. The U.S. Army is doing a background check on him now which can take up to a year. This is a major step for him and for us all!
- Gergo will be a sophomore and continues to improve in his English skills. Because of his age, it's very challenging for him to be separate from his culture, his friends and grandparents.
Regarding the fall: please, pray for the many evangelistic trainings we will held in various churches and cities across the U.S. Soon we'll send out more details about that.

Time to change the formation Arsene – and is JD the new TA?/
By Avenell Dave
Few of us who watched Arsenal on Saturday could convincingly plead that the performance was convincing.
Forget the MotD generalisations. The fact is, our defence isn't good enough.
Where once we had Patrick Vieira and Manu Petit covering the back four to make sure nothing got through, now we play a formation that basically encourages five players to take forward positions and exposes an already vulnerable defence to invite on the opposition.
Even before Laurent Koscielny went off on Saturday with concussion, Diomansy Kamara was getting through and beating our offside trap time after time.
The sad thing about watching Arsenal is that virtually everyone in the ground knows that a two or even a three goal lead is not enough.
And as chance after chance went begging, even sitting in a new area from my usual seat, the feeling was the same – it's only a matter of time before we concede. And so it was.
So it's startling to see that Arsene Wenger is encouraging Alex Song to get forward at every opportunity, leaving the already fragile defence totally exposed.
As a fellow Addict said to me this morning, why not just put another attacking midfielder in there if the obsession is only with getting forward.
It simply makes no sense.
Thankfully, we managed to get the three points that have taken us top of the league.
But credit must got to Johann Djourou who is turning into the commanding and dominant defender we have been missing for years.
Brought on only because of Laurent Koscielny's injury, I can totally understand why Wenger is easing him back into the team.
But it has to be said that he and TV should be our first choice central defensive partnership when fit with the other two biding their time on the sidelines.
Djourou has added aggression and finesse to his game. Sure, he makes the occasion mistake but show me a game where a defender never makes a mistake and I'll show you a Premier league team playing a minnow.
Maybe it's time to think about going back to 4-4-2, where we have two forwards working in tandem together (I still believe that although he holds the ball up well, Maroune Chamakh is better with someone alongside him) and players who know their duties and roles.
It feels like we flatter to deceive at the moment and maybe now is not the time to change things with two massive games coming up.
But we're top of the league and, as a certain M*nu defender said on Twitter yesterday, what really matters is who is top of the table at the end of May.
We can be there – and only a little fine tuning is required to make it happen.

Author: Rhian Arrenberg, Professional Support Lawyer, Real Estate Dispute Resolution, London
Following the creation of a criminal offence of squatting in residential premises* punishable with up to six months in prison and/or a fine of up to £5,000, there is a real concern that squatters are turning their attention towards occupying commercial buildings instead. Typical development sites such as empty office, retail and industrial premises are often seen as prime targets for travellers, protestors and squatters, particularly where there is a relative lack of security and ease of entry. In our third in a series of posts relating to vacant possession, this post sets out some tips for landowners on how to avoid trespassers entering onto land or into buildings in the first place.
We set out our advice in our previous post in relation to landowners' options should they find that their premises have unexpectedly become occupied by squatters. Unfortunately, once squatters have entered and begun to occupy a building, they can be reluctant to leave, and removing them can be time consuming and expensive, leading to delays and increases in the cost of a development project.
Furthermore, the owner of an occupied building will owe a duty of care under the Occupiers Liability Act 1984 in respect of any personal injury incurred by trespassers which is "caused by reason of any danger due to the state of the premises or to things done or omitted to be done on them". This duty could arise of any or all of the following conditions are met:
- The owner is aware, or ought reasonably to be aware, of any danger;
- The owner knows, or ought reasonably to know, that the trespasser is, or may come within the vicinity of the danger;
- The risk is one which the owner may reasonably be expected to protect the trespasser from.
If these conditions are satisfied, the landowner is under a duty to offer some degree of protection to any trespasser, for example, putting up warning signs or barriers. This is particularly relevant in development projects, where buildings are more likely to have already been stripped out or allowed to become dilapidated in anticipation of development work starting.
Prevention of squatters therefore remains the best cure. It is advisable that landowners do all that they can to prevent trespassers entering onto land or buildings in the first place. We have the following tips:
- Whilst it can be seen as imprudent to spend money on a site which will soon undergo extensive development, it would be worthwhile in the long term to ensure straightaway that premises are as secure as possible. Depending on the nature of the premises, this could involve installing steel security doors and tamper proof locks to windows, skylights and doors, CCTV and alarm systems.
- Consider whether it would be worthwhile employing security guards to live on site round the clock to patrol the premises to ensure that there is no opportunity for trespassers to take possession of the site.
- Remove anything of value from the premises.
- Put up signs to alert trespassers to the security measures which have been put in place, with the intention that they might then find the building unappealing.
- Decommission utilities like water, gas and electricity, to make squatting at the premises as uninviting as possible.
- Carry out regular inspections of the premises internally and externally to make sure that they remain secure and free from occupation, so that any necessary civil action to remove squatters can commence as early as possible.
Should you require any further information in relation to removing any unauthorised occupiers, please read our previous blog entry here or contact any member of our Real Estate Dispute Resolution team for specific and comprehensive advice.
*Note that section 144 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 came into force on 1 September 2012, creating an offence of squatting in only residential buildings. It is therefore a criminal offence if a person:
- Is in a residential building as a trespasser, having entered it as a trespasser; or
- Knows or reasonably ought to have known that he is a trespasser; or
- Is living on a building or intends to live there for any period.

I have a new Dell All-in-One computer and moved all my Hauptwerk there. I'm having some audio drop-outs and trying to determine why. I ran a Latency Monitor check and that seems to be OK. I am thinking that I 'minimalized' the computer to eliminate other activities as this computer is dedicated to my organ. But on the Audio/Midi/Performance window the 'CPU' meter is constantly moving into the yellow and occasionally into the red, even when I'm not playing. So, something must be running that I can't find.
Any thoughts?

In the last day or so, several economists and commentators have emphasized the significance for democracy of the way in which society constructs its money. I have stressed previously that Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) makes clear the democratic potential of societies in which the government is the monopoly issuer of its own flexible exchange-rate fiat currency. This possibility of a more democratized money stands in stark contrast to the preferred course of neo-liberal policymakers who, if they get their way, as they did for example with the design of the European Monetary Union, deny governments an exchange-rate policy, a monetary policy, and effectively a fiscal policy in that it is put in a straitjacket, legitimated by dodgy economic theory such as ricardian equivalence. When their monstrous neo-liberal design goes wrong, they then seek to reinforce these antidemocratic measures by replacing elected politicians with technocrats, as we are now beginning to see in the case of some European countries.
This point is brought out very clearly by Post Keynesian economist Steve Keen in an interview on the finance show, Capital Account:
From Zombie Banking to Zombie Democracy
A similar point, from the perspective of MMT, is made by Bill Black in his latest post at New Economic Perspectives:
Addressing the Dominant Critique of MMT
John Carney, though primarily addressing another aspect of the debate over MMT, also touches on the implications of currency sovereignty for democracy in a post at CNBC:
MMT, Deficits and Savings: The Babysitting Model
With MMT gaining greater exposure, new readers are being attracted to the various blogs involved in discussing the approach. With this in mind, I thought it would also be worth drawing attention to a post on the topic by Dan Kervick that was made available earlier this year. It was originally presented as a six-part series, but has been combined into one long post:
Public Money for Public Purpose: Toward the End of Plutocracy and the Triumph of Democracy
The topic has also been one of my preoccupations here at heteconomist. For example:
Fiat Money is Logically Prior to Capital
Money and Paths to a Post-Capitalist Society
Hat tips to Tom Hickey and Clonal Antibody for the links to the Steve Keen interview and Bill Black post.

When it launched last year, Samsung's first DeX dock was the latest in a long line of attempts to blur the line between phones and traditional PCs. And you know what? It worked surprisingly well, even though the value for most people wasn't particularly clear. That didn't stop Samsung from trying again, though: the company unveiled a new version of its DeX hardware alongside the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus, and it's much different from the dock we got last year.
Sponsored Links
In its closed form, the original DeX dock sort of resembled an extra-chunky hockey puck, and the sliding mechanism that allowed a phone to fit was quite clever. That's gone. Instead, this year's DeX Pad looks like a shrunken Sega Genesis that the phone is meant to rest on top of. It seems like a step backward in design until you realize that Samsung wanted the phone's touchscreen as close as possible to the surface it's resting on so you can use it as a trackpad.
This isn't the first time we've seen an approach like this -- Razer did the same thing with its lapdock concept at CES -- but it works quite well for navigating between running apps on a bigger display. You'll eventually be able to use that connected phone as a keyboard too, if you've got a masochistic streak. I was hoping to take this for a spin just to see if the road-warriors and traveling salespeople Samsung is targeting with the DeX Pad could squeeze some use out of a tiny touch keyboard, but it wasn't ready for me to play with just yet.
More importantly, you'll be able to drive higher resolution displays than you could before -- in the old days, max resolution for a connected screen topped out at 1080p, which is less than ideal for anyone who has invested in high-end hardware. Things are a little better now, though, since you can crank up the resolution to 2,560 x 1,440 on that big display (as long as you're using an S9, at least). When you take the boost in screen resolution along with more accessible touch controls and the Galaxy S9's power, some novel experiences being to emerge. I definitely didn't think I'd spend a chunk of my day playing Final Fantasy XV: Pocket Edition on a desktop monitor while fiddling with a phone-touchpad combo, but the whole thing felt more elegant than expected.
Some changes, however, might rub some people the wrong way. The DeX Pad packs still two full-sized USB ports, a USB-C port and an HDMI-out, the ethernet jack present in the original is nowhere to be found. Whether anyone will actually miss that thing is another question, but shouldn't have to wait long to find out.

Filling A Textbox From A Cell Using A Label Click Event?Feb 16, 2014
filling a textbox from a cell using a label click event. I have attached an example.View 2 Replies
filling a textbox from a cell using a label click event. I have attached an example.View 2 Replies
I create a series of labels and text boxes at runtime.
for x = 1 to 10
labelName = "label" & x
Set cControlLabel = Me.frameScrollable.Controls.Add("Forms.Label.1", labelName, True)
next x
How can I assign an on_click event to these? I have seen some rather complicated suggestions such as creating code for each possible object, but there could possibly be hundreds of labels created. It would be nice to be able to call the same macro from each label click, and then take action based on the .caption property of the label.
I have a textbox from the drawing toolbar. When someone changes a cell then clicks in the textbox, Worksheet_Change does not run. If they double click in the cell, that's OK I can capture that event and protect the sheet, stopping them clicking in it. But if they just start typing in the cell, I can't capture that. I have seen some API code which captures keypresses, but it is not practical to use as it loops repeatedly. I could lock the textbox and have the user do something to unlock it, but this is a last resort.View 7 Replies View Related
How do I run code if I click on a cell in the workbook, like Cell A1 of Sheet1?
So far I just have...
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
1. I would like to trigger an event once i click on a cell, for example I click one click on a cell (1,1) and it run some macro.
2. When I bring my cursor to this cell, to change cursor pointer to pointer like in hyperlink.
I want a floating userform (showmodel = false) to display the results of a cell.
On excell spreadsheet I can assign a cell value to an object/shape, as the cell value changes so does the display on the object automatically.
I want the same results on a userform.
I tried the texbox & using the the controlsource from the properties window, this was only good for one result. for the next result the textbox won't change its value.
As i want this for display purpose only can i use the label for the above problem
Is there a way that when a cell is clicked in a worksheet. that I can get a user form to open?View 9 Replies View Related
what im trying to do is to copy only the last 7 characters in column A:A
when i dubleclick on a cell.
if i click on a cell that has "8peu99s8a" i want it to copy only "eu99s8a" wich is the last 7 characters, and then i will past the data to another program i use.
this code will only apply for any cell in column A:A
if there is a workaround to this issue. I have this code that transfers data to a textbox but it stops after hitting the character limit. Does anyone know how to extend this limit ?
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
With Me.Shapes("textbox1").TextFrame.Characters
.Text = .Text & Target.Value
End With
End Sub
I have a userform that is dynamically generating labels. The reason for this is because I have a few thousand labels to generate. I am also attaching a MouseMove event to each dynamically generated label using a its own class.
The class contains this code:
Private Sub m_objlb_MouseMove(ByVal Button As Integer, ByVal Shift As Integer, ByVal X As Single, ByVal Y As Single)
m_objlb.Caption = "x"
End Sub
What this will do is whenever the mouse hovers over a label, its caption is changed to an "x".
Now, I would like to reset the caption once the mouse is no longer on the label. I don't think looping through all labels and resetting them is feasible because of the sheer number of labels involved.
I need a userform textbox event that fires after I tab or click out of the textbox. Going by the list of options:Beforedragover, BeforeDroporPaste, Change, DblClick, DropButtonClick, Error, Keydown, Keypress, keyup, mousedown, mousemove, mouseup.
I can't figure out which one will do what I want. The change event happens instantaneously which doesn't work. I need to fire off the event when my focus leaves the textbox.
I am using a TreeView control and need to determine if the user clicked on the Image or the Label of a node. The Hittest function can return either a TreeViewHitTestInfo object or a node. By default it returns the node. I'm not quite sure how to trigger the return of a TreeViewHittestInfo object, but at the moment I'm even struggling to make VBA aware of that class. A simple statement like
Dim info As TreeViewHitTestInfo
returns an error saying that TreeViewHitTestInfo is not defined.
i've got a form that shows employee data in labels, and i'd like the user to be able to double click a label to change it (using a pop-up form). is it possible to get the pop-up to show after a double click instead of a single click?View 5 Replies View Related
I'm trying to enter some in a website and submit it, I'm using this code:
Sub LoginToSite2()
Dim IE As Object
Dim IEdoc As Object
Dim Password As Object
However I can't get to work for this website, I'm getting Run-time error "91" Object variable or With block variable not set I can only post the source code of the website (below). Also it contains frames, maybe that's part of the problem.
I'm having some trouble with the following. On a userform, I have 3 listboxes:
When I change the value of any one of the Listboxes, I would like to fill the corresponding TextBox. They're named:
So, if I:
* change ListBox1Category, I want to have 20 (for example) in TextBox1Amount
* change ListBox2Category, I want to have 20 (for example) in TextBox2Amount
* change ListBox3Category, I want to have 20 (for example) in TextBox3Amount
So the numbers 1, 2, 3 should match. Does anyone know the code for this?
I have the following code written to check calculations. Now I would like to make one or another Label Visible depending on the value this code returns.
If TextBox57 = 0 then I want Label 7 to visible but if it doesn't I need Label 8 to be visible. I am starting both Labels hidden.
Possible to create a class that contains a textbox and a label?
I need something like a checkbox except instead of showing a check mark, it shows how many time the checkbox is clicked.
What I can think of is a combination of a textbox and a label. When the label is clicked, the number in the textbox increases (or decreases, depending on a pre-set condition) by one.
I am having trouble linking a textbox so that it will out put in a label on a worksheet.
I have been given the code
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
TextBox1.Value = Worksheets("Sheet1").OLEObjects("Label1").Object.Caption
End Sub
But this returns the error
Run time error 1004
Unable to get OLE Objects property of the worksheet class
This is something that once perfect on one label and textbox I will then wish to make work on multiple labels.

I'm buildng a userform for data input.
As an aid, I have a label at the bottom of the form and when a person tabs onto a textbox that labels then states what you are supposed to input into that textbox along with an example. When you tab onto another textbox the caption on the label changes to give another explanation and example.
I attempted to insert an if statement into the userform which states that if a textbox is enabled then the caption of the label = "Example"
If textbox1.enabled = True Then label1.caption = "Explanation 1, Example 1"
If textbox2.enabled = True Then label1.caption = "Explanation 2, Example 2"

I am trying to write some questions on cells of Sheet1 of a workbook. Then I want to write the answers on cells of Sheet2 of the same workbook. I want the user to be able to double click the question-cell on Sheet1 and be taken to the respective answer on Sheet2.View 6 Replies View Related
I am creating a spreadsheet that has various form controls, etc... in it and I wanted to create a "help" macro. I have a small Question Mark icon and I want the user to be able to click the icon and have little text boxes appear on the excel sheet with instructions.
I was wondering instead of making a toggle event where the user clicks once to turn on and again to turn off, if there was a way that the user could click and hold on the icon to make my text boxes visible....and when the user releases they disappear.
I am building a conversion calculator on a userform. There is a textbox I've named "UserPctOff" where the user enters their value. I've got a label that I'm using to record the converted value. I keep getting Type 13 Mismatch error.
Here is my code.
Private Sub UserPctOff_AfterUpdate()
UserPctOff = Format(UserPctOff.Value / 100, " Percent")
LabelMDRate = UserPctOff.Value / (1 - UserPctOff.Value)
End Sub
I have set double click event to open my userform.
It opens normally, but when I try to close It, It opens again. After that I can close It normally.
I checked Userform code, but can't figure out why event triggers twice. What's wrong ??
This is my double click code :
[Code] ......
I have some rows in my sheet locked and some unlocked rows. When user clicks on a unlocked row I should be able to enter some information. I am suppose to populate some dropdowns in that row for him to choose. How can this be done??
I know when a user clicks a row worksheet change event is call. I can write a function in the worksheet change event to populate values in the dropdown. I went through some articles, and they say it can be done by hiding and unhiding rows.
I have a form that allows users to browse for a file so the location can be stored in a cell. When they select a file the form then creates another area so people can browse for another file. (Similar to an attach a file on an email)
The problem I have is that when I create the next button I don't know how to add a _click event to it.
I currently have a set of ListBox controls on a worksheet tab. They are all configured as multi-select and i have the values populated via the ListFillRange properties. Each listbox has an '{All}' option; when the user clicks on this value I want to de-select all other previously selected values. The code for this is straightforward enough, but I cannot get it to fire using the _Click event. Why this is not working?
Additionally, I attempted to use the _Change event but quickly got caught in recursive loops which obviously is not going to cut it.
I want to write a macro , which creates a form and once the user double click the form i get a popup message "hello" , but when i run my code i get compile error : Sub or function not defined for the line Sub one().
This is the code on my module:
Sub one()
End Sub
And this is the code i get when i double click the button
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
msg "hello"
End Sub
I would like to create a macro in which, when the user double clicks on a cell, that cell will be shaded yellow and other cells within the Workbook containing the same value as that cell will be crossed out. I have come up with the below code, but it doesn't work correctly. Any ideas on what I have done wrong? Would also like it to not cross out the cell the user double clicked on.
Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim wk As Worksheet
Dim selectedName As String
selectedName = ActiveCell.Value
With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 6
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
For Each wk In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
For i = 200 To 2 Step -1
If ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 2).Value = selectedName Then
ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 2).Font.Strikethrough = True
End If
End Sub

The Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida/
The Dali Museum has been in St. Petersburg, Florida since 1982 but a new, larger museum designed by architect Yann Weymouth opened in 2011. It's an iconic building in St. Petersburg with a large free-form glass bubble known as "The Enigma", which is made up of 1,062 triangular pieces of glass and stands 75 feet tall. We had tickets to visit the museum and finally got a chance to explore the exhibits together. We both knew of Dali's famous painting "The Persistence of Memory" so we were curious to see more of his art. This museum carries the largest collection of Dali's work outside of Europe and is rated the #1 place to visit on Trip Advisor in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Not only is the outside of the museum interesting but the structure inside is stunning as well. We loved the huge glass windows that overlooked Tampa Bay and the helical staircase which represents Dali's obsession with spirals and double helical shapes.
The museum houses over 2,000 of Dali's work in it's permanent collection including 96 oil paintings, many original drawings, book illustrations, prints, sculpture, photos, manuscripts and an extensive archive of documents. They also have interesting exhibits like "Dreams of Dali in Virtual Reality" and "Dali Revealed: Candid Moments from the Artist's Life".
We're slowly starting to visit more art museums, so we're not experts when it comes to critiquing art but we appreciate unique art pieces and Dali delivers just that. We also love Dali's silly personality. One thing that stuck out to us about Salvador Dali were photos of his personal life. They were just as intriguing as his art work. I didn't know much about Dali, so Crystal pointed out how he always makes these funny facial expressions in his photos.
You know that one person in group photos who always has to stand out and refuses to do a normal smile? Well, that is what you get from Dali and the museum made sure to display a ton of those photos of him. Apparently, he was well-known for his public eccentric behavior which a lot of time drew more attention than his artwork. Well, that was exactly what was happening to us. We couldn't stop staring and laughing at his odd facial expressions in his photos.
One painting that really left us in awe was the "Lincoln in Dalivision". When we first approached the painting up-close, we didn't think much of it. We were like, "Lincoln and a lady?". What we saw was a painting of a woman and at the bottom corner was a super tiny painting of Abraham Lincoln. We both started taking photos of the painting and when we saw the playback of the photo, we immediately saw that the photo was Abraham Lincoln.
So...why weren't we able to notice this at first? To see the image transformed into a portrait of Abraham Lincoln, you have to view it at a distance of 20 meters (~65 feet). We spent quite a bit of time just staring at this painting after we realized the transformation. Also, the four squares to the right reminded me of the Microsoft Windows logo. It's probably just weirdo me thinking this and obviously there is no correlation since Windows came out almost a decade after this painting was created.
There were a ton of other interesting paintings and some of them were enormous. I always wonder how an artist decides how large they want their canvas to be and how much paint it actually costs to make it. Crystal especially loved Dali's "Lobster Telephone" because it's just so ridiculous.
The museum also showcases other limited-time exhibits and, at the time we went, it was "Memory, Mind, Matter: The Sculpture of Eduardo Chillida". We walked through Chillida's exhibit pretty fast because we were starving at this point and all we could think about was food.
We headed downstairs to Cafe Gala and were disappointed that we didn't eat sooner. Most of the items on their menu were sold-out, which was a bummer because it was all the Spanish cuisine entrees they were out of. That's what we really wanted to try since that is where Dali is from (and we also love Spanish cuisine). We had no choice but to settle for the turkey wrap. Not as exciting as the other dishes, but we weren't disappointed in the flavors. The turkey was roasted and the lemon garlic aioli was delicious. We also ordered the Magdalenas (we had to get something Spanish), which was a delicious citrus almond muffin.
When you exit the building, there is a small park where you can contribute a wish to the Dali Wish Tree. You attach your museum's paper wristband to the tree and it will carry your wish. There was a really nice calm breeze that day and the ribbons moving back and forth were really mesmerizing.
This museum is relatively small compared to some of the recent ones we have visited like the Crystal Bridges Museum (Bentonville), Ringling Museum (Sarasota), or the Mori Art Museum (Tokyo). You'll most likely need only half a day to look through everything at this museum. We suggest eating lunch at noon or slightly before, at the Cafe Gala, to avoid limited menu options.

Closure list keeps on growing in Mackay
TOSCANI'S is closed.
Add it to the list.
It's been a busy week of bleak news with business closures.
Daily Mercury readers are feeling the pain and the loss of some of their favourite stores.
Shopping centres are emptying out and rumours are swirling around the city.
On Facebook we asked readers what other businesses they had seen close.
Bernadette Rutherford described the closures as "very sad".
"It is a very difficult time for many businesses who pay extraordinary amounts of rent and have to survive on customers who are doing it tough as well," she said.
"Pity landlords weren't more considerate about rent in tough times. They end up with empty shops anyway.
"Who would start a new business in this climate? I've owned two businesses in the past and know how stressful it is - feel so sorry for them."
Caitlin Lamont said she had really noticed a difference in Caneland Central.
"Nearly every time I go to Canelands, something new has closed down," she said.
"Earthborn is the latest to close down. I think it's time landlords and tenants start working together to find ways to attract more business to keep the tenant operating.
"Potentially stop making the tenant pay rent that's through the roof also?"
Kylie Rogash said she saw the same situation at Andergrove.
"I was at Andergrove in the block where Home Hardware is/ was. The whole complex is empty, it's sad," she said.
Sydney Street Markets in Mackay were unable to respond to media inquiries by deadline regarding the closure of Toscani's or what will be going into the centre once the construction work had been completed.
What you said on social media:
Toscani's at Sydney Street Markets has closed and Claudies Restaurant on Brisbane St will temporarily close its doors from June 28. What other businesses have you seen close recently?Posted by Daily Mercury on Thursday, June 25, 2015

Paints Used:
P3 Menoth White
P3 Ironhull Grey
Citadel Nuln Oil
I put together this sketchy tutorial on me lunch break - hope it's useful. Also, the light changed during painting (big storm) so apologies for the pics. So... Non-Metallic Metal.
Painting the Steel
For the steel you'll need these colours or similar..
Steel stage 1 - basecoat grey
Steel stage 2 - wash nuln oil
Steel stage 3 - paint the original grey back on around in the direction of where your light source is coming from... I tend to use two o'clock on the clock face…
Steel stage 4 - and the light changed! Add white to your grey and and paint a bar of light to separate the light and dark areas
Painting the Gold and Finishing up
For the gold you'll need these colours or similar…
Gold stage 1 - paint brown.
Gold stage 2 - agrax earthshade wash.
Gold stage 3 - add yellow to brown and highlight in same position as grey, around two o'clock..
Gold stage 4 - add more yellow and paint a bar to separate light and dark areas..
Gold and steel final stage - edge highlight with 2 or 3 very thin layers of pure white. Also firm up your horizontal light bars with this mix - et voila!
