I'm interested in collaborating with female and male models on creative projects that will help expand my knowledge of photography and video work I have 10 plus years in photography and media services, and would like to expand my services and creativity in the adult industry. I travel back and forth to California and will be in Miami Florida early next year to open a studio.
I've decided to focus on woman's beauty and sensual erotic work and step out of my box so to speak. I'm open to pretty much any ideas and have a few concepts of my own that will need attention soon. TFCD or paid arrangement.
Although I can afford to pay for a shoot with an experienced model(s), I
would also shoot photography or video work TFCD with the right model(s) for creative projects and so forth. I will supply full edited high resolution digital photos to the model(s) which will also be available on disc if you so desire. and/or high quality video(s) on DVD to all that are involved with concepts that are recorded for TF or paid work. Contact me if you would like to be involved. When I do relocate I will be going at it full steam. So get to know me and lets work together in the near future! Thanks for reading.

Arizona Cardinals vs. Washington Redskins: 5 Things to Watch for During the GameSeptember 18, 2011
Arizona Cardinals vs. Washington Redskins: 5 Things to Watch for During the Game
After Week 1, both the Arizona Cardinals and the Washington Redskins are tied for first in their respective divisions at 1-0. For each of these teams, this game may be one of the most important of the season: A win for either team will demonstrate that the victorious team has truly begun to climb out of the slump that has plagued both franchises for years.
Last week, both teams were surprising in their first games. Despite their inability to stop the prolific Cam Newton in the air, Arizona was able to stop the Carolina Panthers' ground game—something they had trouble with in 2010. The Redskins took the NFC East by surprise in their unexpected rout of the New York Giants.
This week's matchup should be a good one as both teams continue to demonstrate why they are contenders, not pretenders, for the 2011 season. Here are five things to watch for on Sunday as the Cardinals and the Redskins face off.
1. The Cardinals Will Shut Tim Hightower Down
A former Cardinal, running back Tim Hightower is at a disadvantage in this matchup. With the shortened offseason and free-agency period, many players were not certain where they would end up until just a few weeks before the preseason began.
Tim Hightower was one of those players who landed on another team with just over a month to go before the start of the regular season. Although these players are veterans, not all offenses (or defenses) are created equal; many of these players demonstrated in Week 1 that they are not quite comfortable on their new teams.
In the case of Tim Hightower, the Cardinals have a double advantage: He is clearly one of those players who has not yet settled in with his new team, and he is about to face the team he started with for three years.
The Cardinals' defensive personnel know Hightower's abilities and they know his moves. They will be able to contain him for the duration of the game.
2. Kevin Kolb Will Prove He Is Starter Material
Quarterback Kevin Kolb may still be a relatively new face in the NFL, but thus far he has not disappointed in his role as the Cardinals' offensive leader. While there is still plenty of room for improvement, all signs point to Kolb making steady forward progress in his performance on the field.
In particular, expect Kolb to shine against the Redskins defense.
Although Kolb plays for the Cardinals now, don't forget that Kevin Kolb started his career with the Philadelphia Eagles—a contender in the NFC East, just like the Washington Redskins.
When Kolb was still the starting quarterback for the Eagles, it was his job to know the ins and outs of all of the teams he played. That is always particularly true for divisional opponents.
Provided that the offensive line does their job and keeps the pressure down on Kolb, expect him to have an excellent day against the Redskins.
3. The Cardinals' Pass Defense Will Struggle
In the first week of the season, injuries hit the Cardinals where it hurts. Linebackers Daryl Washington and Joey Porter both suffered injuries. Expect Porter (knee) to start the game, but Washington (calf) may sit this one out.
Washington in particular was a staple of the Cardinals defense in Week 1, recording a team-leading six tackles, two assists and one sack. If he is slowed down, it is a huge loss to the defense.
Regardless of whether or not Washington and Porter play, the core of the Cardinals' pass defense will be at less than 100 percent at game time. Expect Rex Grossman to notice, and to take advantage of rookie linebackers stepping in to fill in the gaps.
4. The Cardinals' Special Teams Will Be Less Special
Despite the Cardinals' many shortcomings last year, special teams was one area that was consistently excellent. Much of that success was due to the elusiveness of LaRod Stephens-Howling.
Unfortunately, Stephens-Howling's success last year was hampered by injury. It looks like this trend has continued into 2011. He's questionable for the matchup against Washington thanks to an injury to his hand.
Although Stephens-Howling remains a return threat and a passable third-string running back, those qualities only matter if he can play. Without him, the Cardinals' special teams production will be quite average.
5. The Score Will Climb
Both the Cardinals and the Redskins have offenses capable of producing large amounts of yardage on the field. Both teams also have defenses who proved in Week 1 that they are capable of yielding huge plays to the opposition.
The Cardinals are not the only team grappling with injuries in the linebacker position: The Redskins have also seen some key defensive players struggling with injury.
Perhaps most importantly, both teams have quarterbacks who are out to prove that they deserve their jobs as starters.
Neither Kevin Kolb nor Rex Grossman may be an elite quarterback, but both have demonstrated that they can spot and take advantage of weaknesses in the defense. Expect both teams to strike as quickly—and as often—as possible.

New Orleans, LA (PressExposure) November 13, 2012 -- John de Lancie, who portrayed "Q" on several iterations of the legendary "Star Trek" franchise, and Kevin Eastman, co-creator of the wildly popular "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," have been added to the roster of guests attending Wizard World New Orleans Comic Con, Nov. 30 - Dec. 2, 2012, at New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. De Lancie joins six other "Star Trek: The Next Generation" cast members in the 25th reunion of the iconic TV series.
De Lancie is scheduled to attend all three days; Eastman will attend on Saturday and part of Sunday. They will both meet fans, sign autographs and pose for photo ops. De Lancie will be part of the Star Trek: TNG special programming, and Eastman will discuss 'TMNT' in an interactive Q&A session.
Additionally, Wizard World has announced that Patrick Stewart has canceled his New Orleans Comic Con appearance due to filming in Winnipeg, and that Gillian Anderson will also no longer be attending.
Along with de Lancie and Eastman, comics legend Stan Lee, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star Eliza Dushku, Reservoir Dogs headliner Michael Madsen and WWE® Superstar CM Punk® top the standout lineup of celebrities scheduled to attend the event. They will be joined by an All-Star collection of well-known artists and a variety of activities, exhibitors and special attractions in the final event on Wizard World's 2012 calendar.
In addition to de Lancie, members of the 'TNG' cast reuniting in New Orleans include Jonathan Frakes (Commander William T. Riker), LeVar Burton (Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge), Michael Dorn (Lieutenant Worf), Marina Sirtis (Counselor Deanna Troi), Brent Spiner (Lt. Commander Data) and Gates McFadden (Dr. Beverly Crusher).
De Lancie has been active in screen and television roles since 1977. Although he is best known for his recurring role as "Q," de Lancie has an impressive background within the entertainment industry. Among his many acclaimed stunts are the production and acting in several audio dramas based on classic science fiction stories for the production company Alien Voices, which he founded with Leonard Nimoy.
Eastman, who also owns, edits and publishes the magazine "Heavy Metal," created what began as a self-published comic and would go on to be a huge, worldwide phenomenon in the 1980s along with Peter Laird. It wasn't long until "TMNT" was everywhere, spawning numerous TV series, a set of live-action movies and innumerable toys, games and other merchandise, even a concert tour.
Eastman adds to a standout lineup of superstar comic creators which includes Eisner Award Hall of Famer Neal Adams ("Batman," "Green Lantern"), Eisner nominees Ethan Van Sciver ("Firestorm," "Green Lantern"), David Mack ("Kabuki," "Daredevil"), Jesus Saiz ("Resurrection Man," "Birds of Prey") and Ron Garney ("Captain America," "Wolverine"), "Zombie King" Arthur Suydam ("Marvel Zombies," "Army of Darkness") and Michael Golden ("Hulk," "Daredevil") leading the way.
Wizard World New Orleans Comic Con, produced by Wizard World, Inc. (WIZD.PK), will bring together thousands of fans of all ages to celebrate the best in pop-fi, pop culture, movies, graphic novels, comics, toys, video gaming, television, sci-fi, gaming, original art, collectibles, contests and more.

Oversight forces delay of BF wastewater vote
BELLOWS FALLS -- The municipal manager said an oversight at the village's newspaper of record has forced the delay of a bond vote regarding the Bellows Falls wastewater system.
Willis D. "Chip" Stearns II said state law requires notification of a bond vote to appear in the newspaper of record on the same day for three consecutive weeks, but The Shopper failed to print the notice in the May 1 edition, meaning the vote cannot be held on May 20 as planned. The vote on a $6 million wastewater bond was supposed to be held via Australian ballot the same day residents elect their village officials, but Stearns said it will now have to wait until the primary election in August or the general election in November.
According to the meeting agenda of the Bellows Falls Village Board of Trustees, the board plans to announce the bond vote delay at today's meeting, which is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Rockingham Town Hall Lower Theatre. The public hearing regarding the bond vote, also originally set for today, has been postponed.
Stearns said the delay means the village will have to wait for funding for the project to improve the wastewater system. He had previously told the Reformer the $6 million bond would be a debt to pay for the wastewater system improvements, and user fees would be used to pay off that debt. He said the impending improvements are part of a standard re-evaluation of the wastewater treatment plant. Stearns said Monday the project is still in the "study stage" and there is no final design at this time.
He also said someone at The Shopper visited his office to personally apologize for the error. Stearns told the Reformer the bond vote delay is an inconvenience, more than anything else, and should not affect the project. When asked if the relationship between the village and The Shopper would be affected, he said he did not know, but the trustees always name a newspaper of record once a new board is elected during the May election.
Stearns said The Shopper is the newspaper of record because it is free of charge and automatically delivered to residents' mailboxes each week, and therefore has 100 percent distribution throughout the village.

MacBook Pro, backpack may have saved passenger's life in Fort Lauderdale shooting spree
Date: Friday, January 6th, 2017, 22:38
Category: MacBook Pro, News
A MacBook Pro inside a backpack might have saved a passenger's life in the Fort Lauderdale airport shooting this afternoon that left five dead and eight wounded.
"The backpack saved my life," Steve Frappier said, speaking on CNN's "AC360." "[I] dropped and the backpack was still on my back and I was turned in such a way where that at one point when the shooter shot toward my direction … there was a bullet that ricocheted."
Frappier, who described himself as sheltered on the ground "like a tortoise with the packpack on me" when the bullet struck, said the bullet ricocheted around the backpack and the notebook.
"I felt something hit my back," he said speaking to CNN's Anderson Cooper. "It was only later when I went to the bathroom to check myself out that the bullet had entered my backpack, hit my laptop and then later when I gave my backpack over to the FBI for investigation they found the bullet in the
pocket of my backpack."
Given the angle and the ricochet, the bullet would have entered Frappier's back.
Frappier said he had quickly stuffed his laptop into his bag, leaving it open while disembarking from his flight earlier.
"It hit just so through the open backpack, exited, ran through the laptop and the casing and landed in an interior pocket of the backpack," he said.
The shooting spree occurred in the baggage claim area of Terminal 2 at the Fort Lauderdale airport. Officials have stated that the suspect, Esteban Santiago, carried his firearm in his checked luggage before he began firing.
It's unknown what Santiago's motivation might have been. Santiago was taken into custody without incident upon surrendering.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.

Published in late 2014, George Marshall's "Don't Even Think About It: Why our brains are wired to ignore climate change" is a terrific book. George Marshall is an expert on climate change communication. Ten years ago he set-up COIN "to ensure climate change and its impacts are understood, accepted and acted upon across the breadth of society in a manner that creates a truly sustainable future" (COIN's website). Also, COIN has "established a reputation as leading specialists on climate change communication" (COIN's website). Yet, it is not as though he, or anyone else, has cracked it. Understanding how people think (or don't think) about climate change is an endlessly fascinating and challenging subject.
So George was curious. Why is it that, despite overwhelming evidence, we ignore climate change? To address this question he spent years "speaking with the world's leading experts in psychology, economics, the perception of risk, linguistics, cultural anthropology, and evolutionary psychology, not to mention hundreds of non-experts" (page 1). The result is a book with many profound insights about the types of cognitive biases that we can hold about climate change; and has well-informed ideas about what this means for better climate change communications.
I also like the humble tone of the book, which is sensitive to the many ways we can think about climate change. Indeed, one of the most powerful themes of the book is that climate change is so multivalent – "that is to say, it is so open to multiple meanings and interpretations" (page 94). And since it is also uncanny, it has become a 'wicked problem' (page 95) to try and solve. I certainly concur with that!
One (light-hearted) criticism I have of George Marshall's book is its very long title! It's quite cumbersome when writing a review, so I'll use the acronym of 'DETAI' for "Don't Even Think About It: Why our brains are wired to ignore climate change" for the rest of this article.
Before I get too far, I should explain some of my own background. In 2008, along with some partners, I started Haddock Research as a market research agency focused on climate change. To kick-off the agency, in late 2008 we conducted a nationally representative survey of adults in Canada, England and the US using a very wide-raging questionnaire to understand attitudes and behaviours around climate change. We called this project Environmental Choices. Last year, at George's request, I produced some special analysis of Environmental Choices data for DETAI (pages 24, 82 & 189). I was glad to help; especially now that DETAI is finished and I can see what a valuable contribution George has made.
Yet there is still so much that we don't know. Given the right data, and use of modern statistics and data analytics, we could do so much more. Take a look at the work of Nate Silver, and what he is doing with the site fivethirtyeight.com, to give you an idea of what is being done in areas outside of climate change.
Let me be more specific.
Consider the 'public-is-one-person' fallacy. DETAI discusses the Pew study (p79) which puts climate change at the bottom of the things that 'the American public' thinks should be a high priority for the president. The inference would seem to be that Americans are relatively unconcerned about climate change. Certainly that is the interpretation of Whit Ayers as quoted in a recent New York Times article (see below):
"But Whit Ayres, a Republican pollster, said that while debate moderators and editorial boards may continue to press the climate change question, the issue does not resonate with voters. He pointed to a Pew Research Center poll showing that Americans rank climate change near the bottom of policy concerns." (Why Republicans Keep Telling Everyone They're Not Scientists, New York Times, October 30 2014)
Yet is this a correct interpretation of the Pew poll? Do all voters put 'climate change' near the bottom of the list, or is there a high degree of variability between such people? To extract meaning from this data the analysis needs to isolate 'differences between respondents', and 'data which treats each respondent holistically'. If you are talking about cognitive biases, you are really talking about the latter type. The analyst needs to demonstrate how a cognitive bias impacts individuals.
Indeed, a specific episode of the 'public-is-one-person' fallacy was a major prompt for me to run Environmental Choices in the first place. I was frustrated by the front page article of The (London) Times of November 8 2006. The article, about 'The Green Divide', was to highlight the difference between what Britons say, and what they do, when it comes to the environment. Yet, are the environmental opinions and non-environmental behaviours being done by different people? Or are they being done by the same people, as The Times seems to infer? Or is it somewhere in between? More precisely, how different are people in their environmental attitudes and behaviours, and how 'environmentally conflicted' do individuals tend to be? So, I put money where my mouth was, and produced Environmental Choices.
Let's get back to the Pew study. I have not analysed the raw data from the Pew study, but here is what my guess would be based on our Environmental Choices data, and other sources such as the Six Americas study (page 24). There are certain items that everyone would agree would be on the president's 'to do' list – such as "economy, jobs, terrorism and healthcare" (page 79). These are what might be considered 'universal truths'. If something is socially contested, such as climate change, the average would inevitably be lower. Yet, averages in this context can be highly misleading. There is a huge difference between an item 'which is mid-ranked by everyone', and an item 'which is felt hugely important by some, and not at all important by others'. Only in the latter case do you have groups of real people passionate about the issue in question. Without doubt, there are people who are very passionate about climate change (as I am)!
As a voter, the key reason that I personally would choose between political candidates would be according to how well, in my opinion, they would tackle climate change. For me, this is a stronger reason to vote for someone than any party political allegiance I might have. How many other people are like this? That is the kind of analysis I would like to make from the Pew poll. It is why I think that Whit Ayer's analysis of the Pew poll is flawed.
For this next section, I am going to put social differences to one side and focus on individual cognitive biases. If you had seen me read DETAI, you would likely have seen me nodding in agreement, or muttering 'ah yes' to myself quite a lot! Setting-up Haddock Research has given me first-hand experience of many of the cognitive biases that George Marshall talks about – both with other people and how I reacted to them. Imagine the scenario that someone asked me what I did for a living, and I said I conducted public opinion research about climate change.
- One response would be an awkward silence and then a switch to talk about something else; 'the spinach tart effect' (page 88). If this took place in a social situation, there would often be food or drink around as a prompt for the follow-on topic of conversation. I have a vivid restaurant conversation in mind! If you are speaking with an Englishman, talking about rugby union is also pretty safe ground.
- Perhaps a more typical response would be in terms of 'environmental framing' (page 127). The person I would be speaking to would say something like "Yes, I can imagine you could do work for the local city council seeing how much people are prepared to recycle / pick-up litter / stop using plastic bags." To be fair, I would say that this is a very natural response. It really challenged me to think about how to position what I was trying to do. The key problem, it seemed to me, was that talking about these environmental behaviours missed the point about the scale of the specific crisis we face with climate change.
- I should mention that these comments were from back in 2008 when I was first starting-up Haddock Research. I suspect that, since then, people have become increasingly aware of climate change being rather different from other environmental challenges. Part of the reason is that we are starting to see low-carbon technologies, such as solar panels and electric cars, in our day-to-day lives. Also, people can read about the growth and projections for the clean tech sector – such as UN climate chief Christiana Figueres' opinion that clean tech investment needs to reach $1 trillion a year by 2030.
- Somewhat similar to 'environmental framing' is that the person I am speaking to might assume, given my interest in climate change, that I am a 'good person'. They may assume that I would be interested in charitable work, and the conversation can go in this direction.
- I have also experienced loss of friendliness (page 81) or even confrontation. My brother-in-law (now ex-brother-in-law) is a British Airways pilot and he stomped-off with the words "There is more CO2 emitted by people breathing than from planes!!" Although he accepted the general science of climate change, it is clear that he did not want the aviation industry to be the seen as 'the enemy'. I would have liked to have discussed this more, if he hadn't walked off!
- On that last point, from our Environmental Choices data we can see the attitudes towards 'good environmental behaviours' and 'environmental villains' varies considerably by country. In England there is a level of disapproval for 'airline companies for their stance on climate change' in a way which is absent in Canada or the US. There the focus of climate-change-disapproval is heavily against the oil companies.
So I learnt to use 'business-speak', which I suppose it is somewhat similar to the language of 'bright-siding' (page 145). To defend myself against 'the spinach tart effect', 'environmental framing', 'being thought a good person' and 'from confrontation', I developed a business narrative to describe what I was doing. I would speak about using market research to understand how much consumers' concern about climate change prompted them to be interested in things like energy efficient boilers, electric cars and so on. I would speak about understanding business opportunities and how best to communicate low-carbon credentials to consumers.
Yet, thinking about people just as consumers is a fairly one-dimensional way of thinking about society. Even from a business stand-point, companies should be thinking about people in a much more holistic way; how their products will fit into people's lives, how they will be used with other products and crucially, how will they dispose of them at the end of product-life. I was encouraged by a recent interview with Keith Weed, Chief Marketing and Communications Officer of Unilever, where he takes the perspective that 'people are human beings, not consumers', adopting such an approach as part of their Sustainable Living Plan (Impact Magazine, October 2014).
And people are also voters, government workers, business-decision makers, parents, teachers, civic leaders, volunteers, climate scientists, opinion leaders, social media experts, carers, religious leaders, and much else in ways which may impact how society addresses climate change. If someone has a climate change conviction (page 217), what do they do in the specific situations they find themselves in various aspects of their lives? For example, I suggest we should stop thinking of the government as a single entity, but made up of people who have a range of views about climate change. In the British Conservative party, how does a Zac Goldsmith work with a Peter Lilley with a Tim Yeo with a George Osborne? Understanding these dynamics can help us better understand how a government develops policies for fossil fuels and climate change.
These are complex questions, with many answers. That is why I find myself returning again and again to Chapter 42, 'In a Nutshell' (page 231). It has many specific suggestions about how to think about, and act on, climate change based on George Marshall's extensive experience and research that he conducted for DETAI. I hesitate to try and summarise it; rather I will just comment on a few that particularly resonate with me.
DROP THE ECO-STUFF (page 237) – Absolutely agree with George Marshall on this. Our Environmental Choices research shows that a communications plan that focuses on saving nature is really only appealing to those already concerned about climate change.
BE OPEN TO NEW MEANINGS (page 233) – I feel this is a really important point. As a highly contested area, it is all too easy to create a false or misleading picture of what tackling climate change means.
ENCOURAGE POSITIVE VISIONS (page 234) – Whilst recognising the limitation of any metaphor, I rather like the idea that we still have whales in our oceans, not because hunters could not find them anymore, but because of newer technologies that did not use whales as a resource. My positive vision is that, in a similar way, fossil fuel technologies will become obsolete, with enough fossil fuels still in the ground to allow a healthy climate.
Let's build on George Marshall's work, using data about society to better understand what needs to be done to tackle climate change.
I have a personal plea to better understand variance in data. Stephen Jay Gould's "Life's Grandeur" (1996) is a great book on this subject – and I have had a deep distrust of averages ever since reading it!
In the words of Malcolm Gladwell (TED, Feb 2004, from around 15m00s):
"People … were looking for … universals, they were looking for a way to treat all of us (;) … all of science through the 19th century and much of the 20th was obsessed with universals. Psychologists, medical scientists, economists were all interested in finding out the rules that govern the way all of us behave. But that changed, right? What is the great revolution in science in the last 10, 15 years? It is the movement from the search for universals to the understanding of variability. Now in medical science we don't want to know … just how cancer works; we want to know how your cancer is different from my cancer."

What style does Shakespeare use in the beginning of A Midsummer Night's Dream and what is the effect?
- print Print
- list Cite
Shakespeare begins the play in the royal palace of Duke Theseus, who is listening to a legal petition brought to him by the nobleman Egeus against his own daughter, Hermia. The style is very formal. The matter is one of life and death, actually, and yet the tone is rigid and inflexible, as is the law regarding paternal rights over daughters. It is a scene in which the structures of society, i.e., the laws, are dominant over the passions. The effect of this rigidity is that the passionate opponents to the law saying daughters must abide in all things, by their fathers' wishes, burst the boundaries of the laws that try to encase them, and, in defiance, escape by running away to the forest. It is a case of two extremes coming into conflict, the passionate desires of the lovers, and the unrelenting, rigid demands of the law. What happens is like a chemical reaction......the rigid structures collapse when exposed to the unstoppable heat of passion.

UNIONS have slammed new figures showing Edinburgh College chiefs spent £6.5 million on severance packages in two years – while also reviewing which courses to axe.
The statistics, obtained by Unison, Britain's second largest union, also show the college lost 446 staff through voluntary redundancy and natural wastage of workers who were not replaced. Union leaders have condemned the figures and questioned whether the college could deliver a quality service. Emma Phillips, Unison regional organiser, said: "The college is getting funding from the Scottish Funding Council to get rid of people while overall budgets have been cut. We would like to see that funding invested for the future – in students and delivering a better service."
The information released to Unison shows a wide range of staff – from language and business lecturers to technicians and heads of department – have left Edinburgh College since 2011. The cuts come as the college continues to restructure after the merger of Stevenson, Telford and Jewel & Esk Valley colleges in October last year.
Ms Phillips said: "In any big reorganisation, there will be change but we would prefer that change is managed well. There are staff being made redundant now – the number of staff leaving the college is huge. The numbers leaving do not reflect the decrease in workload after the merger.
"Delivering a service takes people to be able to deliver it and if you do not have the staff there, it's not possible to deliver a quality service."
Student leaders said the severance payouts were a sign of "misguided priorities".
Gordon Maloney, president of NUS Scotland, said: "We've never been opposed to mergers and regionalisation, but it has to be driven by a desire to improve the student experience and education, not simply as a cost-saving exercise.
"It would seem that's not happening at Edinburgh. It's hard to see how we can protect quality without protecting staff jobs. Staff are obviously entitled to fair redundancy pay, but spending millions on redundancies smacks of misguided priorities."
College chiefs said new posts had been created that were not included in the figures and that there was no compulsory redundancy until July 2014.
A spokeswoman said: "At Edinburgh College, student numbers have risen by almost five per cent year on year. We are confident that we are fulfilling our commitment to increasing access to top-quality education across the region.
"Voluntary severance has reduced longer-term workforce costs in areas of overlap. The majority of these roles have been in management as well as support roles, where there was likely to be duplication after merger."

SAMSUNG GALAXY S5 On the SGS5 it does not fit the screen well. Looks like it is ment for a scrolling wallpaper. If you have scrolling wallpaper with out needing to hack your phone then this would be a good wallpaper for you. Samsung does not and a lot of the ui apps that would let me are FAR too nosy about thing that do not concern them.

This cloth stage performance backdrop was painted for Maura Garcia's "CROSSROADS" interactive story-telling and dance project as part of the Unedited Series (sponsored by the Harold C. Schott Foundation), Charleston Library Society, Charleston, SC.
It was a re-make of a southeastern mound culture woodpecker pottery design, the Ivory Billed Woodpecker being the iconic bird of the southeastern region:
Below is an inspirational example of a Mississippian era shell gorget from Tennessee, c1000 AD. Crested woodpeckers guard the four directions that encircle the sun. Woodpeckers were symbols of war to the Mississippians. From the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, New York.
"Layers create intersections. What appears to be homogenous and known may actually have many hidden intricacies. Links exist between unconnected things. Take for example an ivory-billed woodpecker, a dance concert and a library: seemingly incongruous. However, what if the dancer is an American Indian and the ivory-bill traditionally an important bird for her people? What if a historic delegation of leaders from her tribe went to Charleston long ago to negotiate a treaty? What if the library is in Charleston, formerly a haunt of the bird? What if the library at one time housed important James Audubon illustrations, including a famous drawing of the ivory-billed woodpecker? And so it begins. The crossroads is the site of this phenomenon: the beginning of many stories.
Every story must have a focal point and the center of the CROSSROADS Project has been the Charleston Library Society. A historic library in a port town is an ideal place to explore intersecting stories. Though I did reference some written texts, I did not want CROSSROADS to be a research report, but rather a living, moving study developed from community interaction. It has evolved over the past five months, involving patron interviews, choreography surveys, a public blog and community movement workshops.
Every interaction with a new person has spawned more material. The CROSSROADS team, an insightful group of artists and community members, has created and inspired responses to this data. The putting together of all of this information has proven to be a wonderful challenge. Tonight's performance is the culmination of this work."

529 PlanSubmitted by jimlenz on Sat, 12/26/2015 - 11:48
I have two 529's setup for my kids. I have enough for 6-7 years of college and was planning on taking the last 1-2 years out of savings, instead of putting more into the 529. When I run ESPlanner, it suggests I add to the 529 for the next 5 years. How do I get around this? Do I remove the withdrawals for the last 2 years and add them as special expenditures? Trying to figure out the best way to accomplish this. Thanks.

I love these season sooooooo much! I think everybody loves summer. Why would anyone do not like?! But my favorite part is: GO ON VACATION. Yes guys, i love traveling. I have gone to distant lands. Like Mauritius, Dubai, Turkey,Tunisia, Suriname and some countreys in Europe. If you can see my parents love traveling! Oeh, i've got a idea. Maybe I will post a few pictures from my vacation in Mauritius. That would be so much fun! But back to the subject. When you go on vacation you need to pack! Yes, pack. Sometimes you have a love/hate reationship with you suitcase. I need to say. I love love love packing my suitecase. I don't know but i think its fun. Because when you go on a beach vacation you always think: Yes, I can wear my sun dress there, oh and my new skirt! I love that feeling. I go to a beach vacation this year and I'm going to show you how I pack my case!
TIP: Do not pack a lot of warm clothes. When you do that to much, you're gonna over pack.
Beach vacation 5 a 7 days.
Beauty Tools:
– your make up bag. Don't pack to much.
– lip balm
– suncreen (face & body)
– hair mask (when you went swimming your hair is really dry so a mask will help)
– shampoo etc.
– shorts (jean shorts etc)
– 4 a 5 tanktops or short sleeves shirts)
– 2 a 3 bathing suits
– maxidresses
– one pair of jeans
– blazer ( no jacket, first: thats to warm second: it will make your suitecase overfull)
– cardigan
– tunic
– 2 skirts
– blouses ( to put over your bathing suite)
– pair of flipflops
– i'm going to take my lovely birkenstocks!
– a evening sandal (for dinner)
– a pair of daytime sandals
– allstars
– sunglasses ( I will take a few with me)
– big hats ( love the floppy ones)
– cute rings and father earings
These are my thoughts of it. Of course you can do it different, this is just my way, how i do it! I hope you found it help full. I wish all of you the BEST BEST AMAZINGS SUMMER everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Thanks to Lauren Conrad Style.

You will need:
14g Copper wire, 2 hole screw punch, Bangle mandrel, Bench Block, Hammer, Wire cutters, File, Ruler
Click the links to find these tools on fundametals.net
Step 1: Wrap wire around mandrel 3 -1/2 times as approximate diameter required. I am sorry to say I forgot to measure the amount of wire I used.Step 2: Double check your diameter. Step 3: Cut 3 "rings" out of the coil. Make sure they are a bit larger. Notice the overlap of the ends. The size can be fine tuned later.Step 4: Texture the wire to your taste.Step 5: Use the mandrel again to texture the outer edge and to get it back to a circular shape.Step 6: Check your diameter at this point. You will need a 1/4″ overlap for the riveting. Cut down if needed and file both ends to a more rounded shape.Step 7: Pound the ends so that they flatten and splay. Copper is a wonderful metal for this. You can get it pretty thin so watch out to not over spread. But it needs to be bit wider then the hole you will be making or the wire will crack. At this point the metal will have stretched. So once again you you need to test the size. If it has grown a bit to long it is easy to remedy by trimming off the end, hammering more and rounding again with the file. Step 8: You will also want to file the edges of the pounded portion to even them up a bit. You can see below how the shape is no longer a nice tear drop kind of shape.Step 7: Use the small size on the screw punch to make the holes. This is perfect for a 14g wire rivet.Step 9: With your 14g wire file the cut edge flat. Do not round it but if there is a minor burr not allowing you to insert the wire remove it with the fie. Test fit. Cut off the rivet so that you have around 1/16″ (2mm) on either side. File the other cut edge. It is easier to remove the rivet from the bangle to do this. I hold the rivet with pliers when filing as they are tiny.Step 10: Lay the rivet on bench block so that an even amount of the wire is on either side of the bangle. The bangle will not be flush to the bench block. The rivet will be. Gently tap the rivet with a hammer. Turn over and repeat. Make sure the rivet has remained centered. Repeat, repeat, repeat, to and from the head of the rivet. Step 11: Return the bangle to the mandrel to true up the circle.Step 12: Decorate and wear. Delightful! If you want to fill with beads add them before riveting. Now repeat 5 more times for a rather impressive stack.

I sat around all day wondering what to think about the guy who got dragged off the United flight after being asked to give up his seat then being belligerent. The officer who dragged him off was suspended, then later the CEO defended the removal.
On Sunday, April 9, after United Express Flight 3411 was fully boarded, United's gate agents were approached by crewmembers that were told they needed to board the flight.
We sought volunteers and then followed our involuntary denial of boarding process (including offering up to $1,000 in compensation) and when we approached one of these passengers to explain apologetically that he was being denied boarding, he raised his voice and refused to comply with crew member instructions.
.He was approached a few more times after that in order to gain his compliance to come off the aircraft, and each time he refused and became more and more disruptive and belligerent.
.Our agents were left with no choice but to call Chicago Aviation Security Officers to assist in removing the customer from the flight. He repeatedly declined to leave.
Chicago Aviation Security Officers were unable to gain his cooperation and physically removed him from the flight as he continued to resist – running back onto the aircraft in defiance of both our crew and security officials.
Seems reasonable, if true.
Then along came ol' Nate Silver to help me decide what I really think about this. Nate is always handy with numbers but is the least street smart person in any room. A pathetic judge of human nature. He absolutely blew the Trump election, but still manages to get some relevancy in edgewise despite his humiliation.
He pointed out in his Twitter feed that different airlines have different propensities for booting overbooked passengers. United is not the worst, but they're not the best. Then he came up with this gem:
.@united But compensation/fines should be MUCH higher for people **involuntarily** denied boarding. Like $10,000 a pop. Right now it's $1,350 max.
— Nate Silver (@NateSilver538) April 11, 2017
Hey, Nate, if you want to win the lottery, buy scratch off tickets, not airline tickets. Anybody who expects those kind of winnings is just a money grubbing putz. And there is nothing scientific about your $10,000. You just pulled it from thin air. Like, perhaps, your odds of Hillary winning. From all accounts, the guy pulled off the United flight was a total a-hole and would have made a scene for twice the $1,350 or even your insane $10,000. Yes, airlines should manage overbookings better. That would be a neat element of competition, rather then creating your jackpot entitlement mentality.
This guy was going to get compensated – something – but persisted in being a combative jerk.
You think for $10,000 passengers wouldn't start fights with each other demanding to be bumped? Come on, Nate, grow some street smarts.

Jim Fike effortlessly blends art and science resulting in engaging and truly beautiful photography while presenting everyday local botanicals in a new and refreshing new light.
His black and white photographs are simple yet modern featuring various plant species, highlighting the delicate roots and stems. The artist takes a place-based approach to his photography examining his medium in relation to subject, audience and site. When asked about his work Fike said, "I strive to create images that function as conduits in a uniquely charged space connecting art, science and spirituality."
His images are carefully created by excavating the plant, arranging and photographing it in the studio, then digitally rendering the edible parts in color while the remaining can be read as contact prints. He has photographed over one hundred plants in seven different states with plans to survey the entire continental United State Creating striking photography of various local botanicals that gracefully float in a black expanse that reference traditional photograms and contact prints, as well as what he calls visions from the collective unconscious.. "My work actively engages the community by utilizing relevant contextual information, interdisciplinary research, and an elegant if slightly spellbinding aesthetic", states Fike.
Fike was formally trained receiving his Bachelors of Arts with Concentrations in Drawing and Photography from Auburn University continuing on to earn his Masters of Fine Art in Photography from the Cranbrook Academy of Art under the tutelage of Carl Toth. He has been busy exhibiting his work at galleries around the nation including Founders Hall Gallery at Soka University, Transition Gallery at Idaho State University, just to name a few. This past October Fike had a solo exhibition of his work in Bokeh Gallery at the monOrchid in Downtown Phoenix titled Photographic Survey of the Wild Edible Botanicals of Arizona. The show received wonderful reviews from the community and extensive media coverage as well as a special visit from Mayor Stanton of Phoenix.
Recently Fike's work became apart of the permanent collection of the George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film. His artwork has been featured in numerous publications both online and in print including F-Stop Magazine, the L.A. Times, Java Magazine, Downtown Phoenix Journal, the Paradise Valley Independent Newspaper and Phoenix New Times. In addition to his art career, Fike is an Art Faculty Member and the Exhibitions Coordinator at Estrella Mountain College.

This weekend we ended up nursing a few headaches with a relaxed trip to Paignton Beach, we went for a Chinese first and then ventured past the steam train station then down to the waterfront, and had a lovely time, mucking around in the sand and the sea, it was even warm enough to go barefoot and not be cold! We also enjoyed a ninety-nine and then made our way back to Totnes after a good four hours soaking up sunlight, playing badminton and taking lots and lots of silly pictures.
love, L

Attack on Twaddell Avenue camp 'was a hate crime'
Police are treating an attack on a loyalist protest camp on Monday night as a hate crime.
North Belfast MP Nigel Dodds said three people were outside the protest camp at Twaddell Avenue at around 11.30pm when around 15 people walked up the Crumlin Road on the Ardoyne side of the roundabout. Minutes later the youths, described as in their late teens, returned, running towards Twaddell and throwing rocks and stones.
The DUP deputy leader said the attack continued for more than 10 minutes until police arrived and chased the youths into Brompton Park.
Mr Dodds said: "Thankfully there are no reports of any injuries."
Loyalists set up camp at Twaddell Avenue in July 2102 after a Parades Commission decision stopped an Orange Order parade on a stretch of the adjoining Crumlin Road, which separates unionist and nationalist areas.
Monday night's attack follows a similar stone-throwing attack two weeks ago and an incident in which loyalist banners were slashed and flags stolen.
