Fred D., Senior Warden
I was born in New Hampshire and baptized, raised and confirmed at the same church where my parents were married (Church of the Good Shepherd, Episcopal). As a youth, I served as an acolyte, participated in youth group, and represented the youth committee to the vestry. During college and graduate school, I attended Episcopal churches on and off, and also spent some time exploring other denominations, attending Quaker (Religious Society of Friends) meetings, a Lutheran church, and occasional Unitarian services. But the Episcopal Church has always felt like home.
After moving around the country for school and work, I was glad to land in northeastern Connecticut. I work as a research hydrologist for US Geological Survey, applying geophysical methods to water-resources and environmental problems. As research faculty at UConn, I also advise and collaborate with students.
I came to St. Mark's in 2013 along with my fiancée Lisa and Lisa's daughter, Lila. We were married by Rev. Hilary Greer in the summer of 2013. Since then, our family has celebrated a number of life events at St. Mark's, including my adoption of Lila (2014), the birth of Griffin (2014), and Griffin's baptism (2015). I am thankful to have found an open, welcoming, vibrant, and supportive community in St. Mark's. Lisa and I will forever be grateful to St. Mark's for the support and help provided to us and Lila when Griffin was in the neonatal intensive care unit following his premature birth.
Sonya O., Junior Warden
I was born in Willimantic but predominantly grew up in Washington D.C. (1yr up to middle school) and New Jersey (middle school through college). My parents divorced when I was 1 so, CT has been my place for school breaks and summer vacations. Both sides of my family line are Episcopalians with my baptism and confirmation both taking place at St. Paul's in Willimantic.
I attended Rutgers University and graduated with dual majors in Political Science (B.A.) and Exercise Science (B.S.) with a minor in English. I also picked up a later in life interest in Architecture and attended the Boston Architectural College in pursuit of a March degree. That interest was put on hold but, will likely renew down the road.
I walked on to the Women's Crew Team at Rutgers as a freshman and spent my college career as a D-I rower and 2x Team Captain. While in college, I spent my summers living in Philadelphia and Chattanooga, TN while participating in National Team Development Camps and Competing in national events.
I spent my initial post-collegiate years first as an assistant coach at Rutgers University (New Brunswick, NJ) and later at The Ohio State University (Columbus, OH).
I transitioned into a corporate career while living in Columbus, OH and have worked for Nationwide Insurance, NorTek Solutions, McKesson, and am now in my 15th year with United Health Group. My career has spanned a spectrum of IT roles and has taken me from Columbus, OH to Austin, TX, Basking Ridge, NJ, Minneapolis, MN, Boston, MA, and Hartford, CT.
I met my wife, Acey, through our days in the rowing world. We will hit our 12th wedding anniversary this summer and, are the proud parents of Maggie (almost 7), Calvin (5), and Louise (5). We moved to Mansfield in the summer of 2014 and currently live on Gurleyville Road.

David M., Vestry Member
I was raised in Bolton and with the exception of a few years here and there, have lived in the area most of my life. I received my Bachelor's degree in Business Management from Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island. After graduation, I came back in Connecticut for a while, but Salve was not done with me. I returned to Newport to work as Director of College Activities for a few years. Once back in Connecticut, my career took off starting with Trade Show Marketing. From there I moved into the operations end of the business where I fell into telecommunications and then eventually project management.
I walked into in St. Mark's Chapel for Christmas Eve Mass in 2012 and knew this was where I wanted to grow spiritually. My husband, Bob and I were married at St. Mark's in September of 2013. I have been working with Hilary and others on how we at St. Mark's can reach out to the LGBT community at UCONN – any help or suggestions with this would be greatly appreciated. Bob and I are empty nesters with our son, Alex, now in graduate school at Duke.
I am currently doing some part time Behavior Technician work while looking at new career opportunities. I really loved working in the college atmosphere and would like to do so again. I love our New England seasons where I can work in my gardens and have been talking about restarting an old hobby of making stained glass. I also enjoy performing on stage with local theatre groups. Most recently I have been involved with productions at The Little Theatre of Manchester.
Matthew O, Student Representative, Vestry Member
I have lived here in Connecticut all my life. I was born and raised in Bristol, CT. I earned by B.S. in Biology at Post University in Waterbury, CT. I began at UConn in the Fall of 2011 as a Masters student in Molecular and Cell Biology, and in the Fall of 2014 I upgraded to the Ph.D. program.
I started attending St. Mark's in the Fall of 2015 as a Roman Catholic interested in the Anglican/Episcopalian approach to the Christian tradition, and I was moved by the beauty of the liturgy and the commitment of the parish to social justice. I felt this was really a community that knew what it meant to follow Jesus. In November of 2016, I was received by Bishop Laura Ahrens into the Episcopal Church. My parents have also been considering the Episcopal Church, and on some weekends I visit them in Bristol where we attend St. John's Episcopal Church. I am still working toward my doctorate, and I am also a laboratory Teaching Assistant at UConn.

If you've read my post or article, 'You Booze You Lose… And Not in the Good Way', you know that nothing packs on the pounds like alcohol.
But you also know that, when enjoyed in moderation, there are some cocktails that can keep your calorie count in check.
….but they can get pretty boring. A vodka soda is great and all, but those jazzy mixed drink menus always look so damn appealing! Who doesn't want to try the chocolate-caramel-whipped-cream martini?!
Alas, there is hope. And that hope comes in the form of my 62 calorie Sparkling Lavender Lemon Bar Martini.
It is soooo good, and tastes like it should be far, far naughtier. When my very picky boyfriend had a sip, his first words were, "oh my god, this tastes just like your lemon bars!" A low-cal cocktail that tastes like a dessert? Now that's genius.
You're gonna need:
Unflavoured Vodka
Lemon juice
Club Soda (reduced sodium is best!)
Fresh Lavender
Vanilla extract
The following recipe makes two cocktails
Pour two shots of vodka onto ice…
…and add two shots of lemon juice. Bruise a big pinch of lavender in your hand (this really helps bring out the flavour!), and add to the mix. Add a teaspoon of vanilla and one tablespoon of Splenda.
Now shake it all up! Fill a cocktail glass with ice. Pour your strained martini mix into your glass, filling about two-thirds of the way. Top with club soda, and enjoy!
At only 62 calories a pop, you can afford to have two (or four)!

Toss me a steak and I'll turn a cheek. Hotdog? I'm RIGHT THERE. I just had one in a potato bun. How much better is that? Cucumbers. How can a person love cucumbers...but I do. My neighbors brought over a bag of them a few days ago - home grown. Oh, my. I have an old family recipie for a cucumber salad.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2018
Cornwall, the homeland to the Trist family name. Even though the usage of surnames was common during the Middle Ages, all English people were known only by a single name in early times. The manner in which hereditary surnames arose is interesting. Local surnames are derived from where the original bearer lived, was born, or held land. The Trist family originally lived in Cornwall. Their name, however, is derived from the Old French word triste, meaning meeting place, and indicates that they lived near a popular meeting place.
Trist Early Origins
Cornwall where they held a family seat at Lords of the Manor of Parc Behan. The main stem of this distinguished Cornish family flourished until the 15th or 16th centuries. It is curious how the evolution of the family motto has been woven around the family surname 'Nec Triste, Nec trepidum', Neither sad nor fearful. This used to be a common practice in the 13th and 14th centuries, particularly in war cries, which frequently held only one word, the family name.

Trist Spelling Variations
Trist Spelling Variations
Cornish surnames are characterized by a multitude of spelling variations. The frequent changes in surnames are due to the fact that the Old and Middle English languages lacked definite spelling rules. The official court languages, which were Latin and French, were also influential on the spelling of a surname. Since the spelling of surnames was rarely consistent in medieval times, and scribes and church officials recorded names as they sounded rather than adhering to any specific spelling rules, it was common to find the same individual referred to with different spellings of their surname in the ancient chronicles. Moreover, a large number of foreign names were brought into England, which accelerated and accentuated the alterations to the spelling of various surnames. Lastly, spelling variations often resulted from the linguistic differences between the people of Cornwall and the rest of England. The Cornish spoke a unique Brythonic Celtic language which was first recorded in written documents during the 10th century. However, they became increasingly Anglicized, and Cornish became extinct as a spoken language in 1777, although it has been revived by Cornish patriots in the modern era. The name has been spelled Trist, Triste, Triss, Trisse and others.

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.

There's a learning curve to this item, that's for sure. It takes some practice to figure out the pressure, and where it aligns, etc. Also, it notes it cuts through 5 pages; I would say 3, tops. This isn't really as good as I expected, but I got it for a really good price, so it'll do 'til I can buy something that's better quality.

Eurodam Cruise Review by Cruise4Sunshine
- Sail Date: May 2013
- Destination: Western Mediterranean
- Cabin Type: Deluxe Spa Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom
I used HAL's transfers and hotel in Rome, and thank-goodness I did. My luggage didn't make it through my connection from Delta to Alitalia. The HAL hostess who greeted me took me to the Alitalia luggage desk to file a lost luggage report, which took many hand gestures and multiple copies of forms. I would have been lost without her help. My bag was in my room at the Visconti Palace, well located to St. Peter's, by the time I got back from dinner that evening. I am not certain whether Alitalia or HAl took care of that for me.
Embarkation in Civitivecchia was a breeze. It was less than 15 minutes from stepping off the bus to stepping onto the ship. The ship had a noro outbreak on the previous sailing, and they were super cleaning the ship (even the walls were bleached), and anyone who arrived earlier than 1:30pm was not allowed to board. Having done the HAL transfers, we arrived at exactly the right time to board. I know it costs a little more to use their transfers, but the benefits far outweighed the costs, in my opinion.
As the fare had been reduced over and over for this repositioning sailing around the Iberian peninsula, I was upgraded to a Spa Cabin, which seemed the same as other verandah cabins, I never used the tabletop fountain, and though the Bose iPod dock was great to listen to my own music, the best part was the location. One quick flight down to Lido deck, the spa, pool and buffet restaurant. One quick flight up to the Crow's Nest lounge and Explorations Cafe for internet and library.
My cabin stewards, Hairul and ??? were friendly but non-intrusive. I am one who leaves the "service my room" sign out, and it is always ready when returning from a meal or activity.
Because of the port intensive itinerary and my full day tours, I ordered room service breakfast each day using the door card at night. Each time I added extras that weren't listed, like a whole banana to take to shore with me, it was on the tray. They were on time each day and a delightful wake-up call, instead of relying on my cell phone alarm, that didn't change time zones automatically.
The food in the Rembrandt Dining Room was always tasty and varied. We had open seating dining and at 7:00pm always walked right into a shared table. Each person we had contact with in the MDR was energetic and helpful. We especially loved Made, who added a bright spot to each evening, and remembered us at the dessert bar in the Lido after lunch. HAL is still not the best for desserts, but for me, it's perfect, a scoop of ice cream is all I need after a long meal.
We ate one night in the Tamarind Restaurant. Best meal of the week. It is free at lunch and only $15 additional for dinner. The menu is varied and well prepared, and it's a visual masterpiece! We did have to change tables because of vibration near the window, but everything else went very well throughout the evening. The waitresses are wonderfully attentive.
I had a brief problem with noise above my stateroom in the wee hours, the Front Desk staff handled it right away, offering to move me, but I was settled in with friends in cabins nearby. They provided ear plugs that worked like a charm, and left a bottle of wine for me in my cabin. They handled the situation professionally and immediately, calling often thereafter to make sure I was OK.
The BB King Blues Club was my hangout after dinner for the entire cruise. The Memphis Sound is highlighted by 5 amazing musicians and CeCe (sp?), the singer, who was terrific! Each night was a different theme, from Elvis to Blues Brothers, to Aretha & Diana, to Otis Redding. This is a new concept for HAL, and I truly hope this is the direction they are going with entertainment, something for we younger cruisers (who grew up in the 70s) to enjoy. I'm not one for big show productions or comedians, so this was a special treat aboard the Eurodam. The Queen's Lounge, where it plays was full for the early set every night, and plenty of people danced when the mood hit them.Our ports were unique, not listed on many sites. In Spain: Cartagena, Malaga, Cadiz, & Vigo. Lisbon, Portugal, St. Peter Port, Guernsey and ZeeBrugge, Belgium, ending in Copenhagen. I used SpainDayTours.com for 3 excursions, one HAL trip to Cordoba, which was excellent, and booked a private taxi tour in Guernsey and taxi transfer to Brugges, which is amazing! More on the ports when they are listed by Cruise Critic.
There were many, many Australians aboard. They added a liveliness to the atmosphere. Not a lot of children aboard, but a few and they were well behaved. The hot tubs were closed for the first several days due to the virus, as was the thalassotherapy pool and thermal suite. I had signed up for the entire cruise, but lost interest in waiting and the spa promptly refunded my payment after the 3rd day.
Seas were heavy most days and nights, especially in the Atlantic. Often, then promenade deck was closed for walkers, which made the treadmills in the gym full most times I visited there. The ship listed and creaked on a couple of nights, and the Captain came on the PA to advise us that the weather forecasters were wrong, winds were higher than expected, but that the ship could handle the winds we encountered.
Disembarkation in Copenhagen was a breeze. My bags were already on the transfer bus when I got off the ship, so went directly to the bus. The Palace Hotel in Copenhagen was a PERFECT location, just off the walking street.
I give the itinerary very high marks, the ship and it's crew very high as well. I met a lot of wonderful people on this trip, and hope to sail the Eurodam another day.
Cabin Review
Port & Shore Excursion Reviews
CopenhagenThis was the disembarkation point. After the transfer to the hotel, we took the Step On Step Off bus, which has two routes. You can catch this bus from the port dock we arrived in, as many of the crew do to see the city. One route took us out to see the Mermaid, the other to the hippie village. We did both for 20 euros, because 4 of us showed up together. I have no idea what it really costs, we bought passes from a woman on the street. Sounds sketchy, I thought so at first, but being able to take both trips and really see the city, all before lunch, I thought it was a great deal. We stayed at the Palace Hotel, well located, just off the Stroget (walking street) with lots of shops and restaurants, and right across from Tivoli Gardens, which hasn't changed much in 30 years since I was there last. My 4:30am HAL transfer to the airport was right on time and CPH airport is full on lovely things to buy.View All 853 Copenhagen Cruise Port Reviews

| Coltrane
| Animal Information
Coltrane (a.k.a. Snowball IV) was the Simpsons' fourth cat. He bore a slight resemblance to Bart.
Lisa adopted Coltrane from an animal shelter shortly after the death of Snowball III. Originally, Lisa was not sure whether she wanted another cat. However, she was won over by his original name (Coltrane), which made him a namesake of jazz musician and sax player John Coltrane.
As soon as she brought Coltrane the cat home, Lisa decided to play some of John Coltrane's music for him. Unfortunately, the music either frightened him or wasn't to his liking, as he jumped out the window to his death. Lisa held a memorial service for him, as she had just recently done for Snowball II and Snowball III. Coltrane's service ended up being very brief, however, as the only thing Lisa could think of to say was "We'll always have the ride home from the animal shelter."
Coltrane had green eyes. He was the only Simpson cat (except for Snowball I) that was actually white; previous and future cats named "Snowball" are black or brown.
A cat identical to Coltrane was seen when Marge dreamt about over protective mothers in Machu Picchu.

There is really only one baseball matter to discuss this week and it is the potential for a lock out on Thursday. The CBA expires on December 1st and while we have heard rumors of a deal being close, so far nothing has been signed. If the two sides don't reach s deal, the owners will probably lock out the players Thursday. Since there aren't any games scheduled for almost three months, this would be a largely symbolic move, but it would end any transactions until an agreement was made.
It would be stunning if the two sides didn't figure out a new deal. It's been 22 years since baseball had a work stoppage and the game has been racking up money Franchise values and salaries are through the roof. Both sides should be motivated to make a deal. But will they?
From various reports the sense is an international draft is the major sticking point. The owners clearly want one as it would provide even more cost certainty. The players will probably acquiesce to one in exchange for more money since it doesn't affect current union members. I would guess that raising the luxury tax threshold and doing away with draft pick compensation could get things done.
For the Yankees, the luxury tax threshold will determine the way the offseason develops. Currently, they have about $135-million committed to next year's payroll. Their seven arbitration cases probably bring the payroll around $160-million. Under the old rules, the Yankees are taxed 50% for every dollar they spend over $189-million, but that tax resets to 22.5% if they drop below $189-million at any point. Assuming that condition carries over to the next CBA, you could see them adding salary up to, but not above, the luxury tax limit this offseason.

Coca-Cola's business model is simple:
Our Company markets, manufactures and sells:
- beverage concentrates, sometimes referred to as ''beverage bases,'' and syrups, including fountain syrups (we refer to this part of our business as our ''concentrate business'' or ''concentrate operations''); and
- finished sparkling and still beverages (we refer to this part of our business as our ''finished products business'' or ''finished products operations'').
Generally, finished products operations generate higher net operating revenues but lower gross profit margins than concentrate operations.
The quote above is cited from page 3 of Coca-Cola's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K filled with the SEC on 02/28/11. This text is referenced within their 10k document at least 10 times to explain the impact of various business decisions made throughout the year on Coca-Cola's gross profit margins.

The 2005 Racing Season Kicks Off
Well the 2005 race season has officially kicked off in North America with the Ralph's Half Ironman – on March 19th in Oceanside. I have raced this race every year, and fully planned to start my season off with this race. My body had other plans – a little hip injury had flared up and I needed to make the hard decision not to race. I could have kept training through and been ready to race but this might have been at the expense of racing later in the season. I had to remind myself that it was only March, and the most important race of the year is Hawaii in October. It really made no sense to push through this injury. I decided to take some time off of running and figure out what was going on with my hip and what I could do to make it better. I can say that after about 3 weeks of easier training and a great deal of body work etc, the injury seems to be a thing of the past. It is so nice to run again without the dull/nagging pain that I had been feeling for quite some time.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the race and I can honestly say that when the rain was coming down and the athletes were freezing on their bikes, I was happy that I was driving along in a car. This probably made my decision not to race much easier – had it been a perfect "sunny Southern California" day it would have been hard to be on the sidelines.
Now that I am back healthy, it looks like I will start my racing season with the Wildflower Half Ironman. But before my first race, I will head to Tempe Arizona to watch Ironman, do some more Ironman live stuff and generally support Roch and Huddle as they work their butts off preparing for this first year race. After putting a little bit of time behind the scenes, I have true appreciation for all that goes into putting on a successful race. As a participant , I show up do my race and head home, without any real concern for what goes on outside of my performance. For those that are putting these races on, the organizing starts the year before. I see how hard Roch and Huddle work on a daily basis getting these races set up and I count my lucky stars that I am still racing!!!!
I look forward to seeing everyone out at the races this year. My updated race schedule will be up soon.
Good luck to everyone racing Ironman Arizona – I will be out there cheering!!!!

Three Easy Steps to Quality Health Care in the Philippines
I am an ordinary Pinoy. As an ordinary citizen, I find it very
difficult to find the right doctor and quickly get an appointment. Whenever a member of my family got sick, it takes about 3 to 5 hours of waiting at the hospital lobby before we could have a face to face consultation with a doctor. Of course, I am talking about experts on their field like my neurosurgeon and heart specialist who happened to be very in-demand. O
ne of my doctors only had one clinic day per week in a Makati hospital, so you could just imagine how long the queue is.
Sad, but yes, I always
turned into a statue like the picture above before I could finally have a consultation with my doctors. No offense meant to my doctors. I love them dearly. They saved my life.
Finally, the waiting game is over! The long wait scenario is now a thing of the past.
With the latest Health & Lifestyle mobile and web applications, there is now an easier, more convenient way to get you to a doctor or hospital. Introducing the

Hi my name is NattysRubi and I'm an addict. Just kidding. Since I was a little girl I've always dreamt of cruising down to Mexico in my topless Jeep.
Well, I haven't been to Mexico yet, but I did just buy my first Jeep. 2013 Rubi Unlimited. This beast was hand picked by yours truly via the web. I called up the local dealer and told them which one I wanted. (I made them go out to Kingston to get it for me :P) LOL
Anyways, I'm not your typical girl. I live in Brampton, ON and I love anything techie, tinkering with computers, fishing, camping, taking care of my houseful of animals (dogs, kids, birds, kids, lizards, husband)
So although I have a love for Jeeps I'm really just a noobie to the sport and I'm very eager to get my hands into some trailing this summer. I'm sure I'll have questions along the way.
Happy Jeeping!

The Amnesic Incognito Live System or Tails is a Debian based Linux distribution aimed at preserving privacy and anonymity.[1] Actually, it is the next iteration of development on the previous Gentoo based Incognito Linux distribution.[2] All its outgoing connections are forced to go through Tor,[3] and direct (non-anonymous) connections are blocked. The system is designed to be booted as a live CD or USB, and leaves no trace on the machine unless explicitly told to do so. The Tor Project has provided most of the financial support for development.[4]
Tails is a live system that aims at preserving your privacy and anonymity. It helps you to use the Internet anonymously almost anywhere you go and on any computer but leave no trace using unless you ask it explicitly.
It is a complete operating-system designed to be used from a DVD or a USB stick independently of the computer's original operating system. It is Free Software and based on Debian GNU/Linux.
Tails comes with several built-in applications pre-configured with security in mind: web browser, instant messaging client, email client, office suite, image and sound editor, etc.

A disclosure: In Tortoise's heyday (a period spanning from 1994's sleeper eponymous debut to 1998's TNT, which was significantly more heralded upon its release), I was going through my glam-rock phase (Chainsaw Kittens and Bowie, not Poison). At that time, the idea of The Song as a five-minute-dub-Krautrock-electronica workout didn't hold much appeal. (I was young.)
Granted, I should have worked my way back to Tortoise around the time I stopped secretly applying my roommate's mascara before parties. But by then I didn't hear a lot about Tortoise anymore, except as an influence on other groups — indeed, for a while, every other group — including Do Make Say Think, Radiohead, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and Sigur Rós (many of which, I can now say, kind of ripped Tortoise off). What I missed, then, was the birth and rearing of the genre now widely known as post-rock, interpretations of which vary wildly from sort of space-age-lounge-music-sounding stuff (Stereolab) to ambitious Cure songs without vocals (Mogwai), but which generally emphasize the instruments over singing or lyrics (of which there's frequently none) as well as repetition, dynamics, and the feel over hooks. Which makes post-rock sound like jazz, even though — and I state this emphatically — it's not even close. The genre, which like many of its fundamentally indie kin-folk was slow to accept that it is one, has been influenced by jazz but, unlike jazz, is made by former marching band kids and calculus students who also happen to like jazz.
A Lazarus Taxon, a boxed set composed of three audio discs and a DVD, is packaged in a nice, square box with full-cover-sized monochrome tunnel photos by the obviously talented Arnold Odermatt, from Switzerland. It's awesome in a kind of almost quaint 1997 kind of way (this being the "download era"). But the accompanying booklet is maddening: We get a with a well-written if fundamentally unhelpful essay by (post-)rock critic Alan Licht slapped wherever it would fit alongside totally different essays written in German, French, Japanese, and Spanish — gestures, presumably, to Tortoise's sprawling fan base. If you're looking in the book for a hint of what, exactly, this boxed set is, good luck. You can sort of piece it together reading the track-by-track synopses by a (naturally) uncredited band member in the back. But in order to do that, you must first overcome the natural response, which is to toss the booklet across the room for being so damn willfully oblique.
The music: The first and second discs cull odds and ends (compilation cuts, singles, and other stuff not contained on Tortoise's proper albums), the third is a previously unreleased remix album of 1994 vintage (as so many remix albums are) served in full. The DVD compiles various live performances and TV appearances. It's pretty and cool in a holy-shit-is-this-obscure kind of way, but we're not talking about the most demonstrative performers in the world.
If I had a car at my disposal, I'd take the music out for a night on the road, because there's no way they'd disappoint. Some of the songs are too self-consciously "smart" for their own good (two vibe players?) and grate, but for the most part the music is — wie sagt man? — transcendent. So many ideas are present, so many feels, and so many of them connect. Sitting down and letting the music wash over can be, on the right kind of night, overwhelming. The rhythm section — Doug McCombs (bass) and John Herndon (drums, "vibes," et cetera) — is rooted in the robotic glide of the Neu!-originated motorik, which was literally intended to mimic the sound and, yes, feel of driving. Producer/mixer/nominal second drummer John McEntire has a way of lifting the beats out of time and place and depositing them on a higher plane that goes straight to the part of your brain that connects sounds with emotion. So when Tortoise isn't mucking around too much with, for lack of a better term, jazz — as the addition, in 1997, of actual jazz guitarist Jeff Parker and, indeed, the chronological flow of the first two discs leads us to believe they are, increasingly — the music is hypnotizing and almost disarmingly emotional. Which is weird given that based on the packaging and calculus rhythms, you'd think the band members — also including the heretofore unmentioned Don Bitney (percussion) — are pretty fucking stoic.
Apparently, the title roughly means "a grouping of organisms that vanishes for a while (as in possibly millions of years) in fossil records only to reappear later." The "taxon," then, like the biblical Lazarus, rises from the dead. I'm going to assume that in addition to the obvious meaning (old stuff given new life via this boxed set), the title has multiple ambiguous but pertinent meanings. What it could mean, though, is that in the inevitable dystopian world forty or fifty years in the future, long after the equally inevitable post-rock revival (look out Chicago!), someone will unearth this totally baffling boxed set and be moved to start a band. Because Tortoise really is that good.

Almost every people desire to revamp their existing décor in quite a new fashion. The best way to modify the dull shabby interior is by installing designer furniture and decorative items. The aesthetic beauty can be enhanced by well synchronized furniture or all new creative designer products which are mainly designed keeping in mind the decorative value and often giving little value to functional worth. But brands like nomess produces those products which are beautiful and equally functional in their appeal their collection of crystal clear storage boxes where one can store variety of items ranging from shoes to shirts and cds but these boxes are appealing and very much useful in day to day life.
Now after owning the unchanged furniture or furniture collection for a while it is not infrequent to observe most people try to modify such arrangement. To do this one may fix on to alter the furniture arrangement or substitute the ones one has with that of stylish furniture, one can also transform the lighting fixture as well. fashionable furniture in ones bedroom or drawing room may be just what one requires to spice things up a bit. altering the furniture will also furnish the room with an innovative and unsullied manifestation to assist one to get rid of the boredom. while deciding to put chic furniture in one's house it is prudent to ask for an expert advice. One can do this by consulting with an adept furniture designers.
One can also contact an interior decorator, although one can decide to give a try all about oneself. Before picking a designer furniture one must first of all decide on a theme one fancy to go with. Having a detailed theme will make certain that one does not include furniture uselessly. This means that every piece of furniture one adds to house will boast a particular purpose and also mix well with the decor. But the interior can well be changed with simple installation of nature inspired photographs by hagedornhagen. This brand provides varied pictures on butterflies and bugs but not in their natural modes but in an artistic designer mode which will give rise to a delightful feelings whoever happens to see them. They are available in varied size and shape. Even one can add feather range in their home interior decoration from fjer extensions.
Another grand tip while altering furniture in one's house or when putting in designer article is to maintain a focal point. This makes sure that all the fixtures revolve round the focal point to generate great synchronization. The focal point can be such, as a centre piece like an aquarium, a a fire place. This also makes sure that the eye does not wander so one has to be more harmonious in background as contrast to just throwing the whole thing everywhere.
In conclusion, while putting in fashionable furniture it is imperative to scale things before installing them to the dwelling. It is also not excellent to own furniture that does not in assonance such as owning very petite designer sofas next to a very gigantic and high coffee stand.

Christopher Hoch will step into the position of director of Ohio State Marching and Athletic Bands after serving as interim director since May.
The university announced Wednesday Hoch had been officially named to the position in a release.
Hoch is also expected to fulfill an appointment as assistant professor within the School of Music, according to the OSU release. This appointment, which is expected to run June 1 to May 31, 2020, is pending approval by the Board of Trustees.
In this position, he will be expected to teach courses and conduct research, as well as perform public service, according to the release.
Bruce McPheron, interim executive vice president and provost, said in the release that Hoch has proven himself "on and off the field" during his career at OSU.
"He has shown focus toward putting our students first and as director, will be expected to continue to instill in students the highest standard for their personal conduct, on and off the field," McPheron said.
OSU announced last May Hoch would serve as the interim Marching and Athletic Bands director for the upcoming season.
Zack Joseph, a baritone who played under Hoch's direction, said he was excited to hear the news of Hoch being named to the position.
"I believe Chris is a great guy for the job, very deserving," he said. "The entire band, myself especially, (is) very excited about the news, very optimistic about next season."
Joseph, a second-year in accounting, met Hoch two years ago during his first season playing in the band, and he said, even serving as the associate director, Hoch made an immediate impression on him.
"I could tell he had a really good grasp on the band — the way everything was organized — he was clearly one of the leaders of the band," he said. "I really felt really comfortable under his leadership. As a first-year member, I felt very safe and very comfortable around him and the rest of the band, especially."
Hoch began his career at OSU as an assistant director of Marching and Athletic Bands. He has 16 years of experience teaching music in high school and college band and musical ensemble programs.
Hoch orchestrated the popular "Tribute to the Classic Video Games" halftime show, which was performed during the 2012 homecoming game versus Nebraska, while serving as associate director.
Joseph said he believes Hoch is ready for next season, citing his leadership during the marching band's "tremendous success" last season, including its first performance abroad at Wembley Stadium in London and an appearance at the Fiesta Bowl.
"Throughout the entire year, I felt, clearly, this is the guy that we need, the guy we all trust," he said. "And it ended up, luckily, turning out the way that we all hoped it would."

Dear Kid,
Most of the time, job eliminations are bad news. But I just read a prediction about completely eliminating an entire job category that makes me very happy.
Turns out that researchers are finding new ways to reverse blindness (eliminating the need for as many guide dogs).
Some of us with less than perfect eyesight simply rely on contacts or glasses to bring clarity (get it?). Some of us went a step further and had surgery to deal with cataracts or just to make it possible to get up in the morning and see the world in focus. Other people have vision challenges that can't be cured as easily if at all.
Now researchers have decided to tackle some of the harder vision challenges like macular degeneration and glaucoma.
According to the article (you can read it here), some animals (like zebrafish) can actually regrow damaged parts of their eyes. Like a newt re-growing a tail, except (presumably) harder.
Researchers have decided that they are going to teach people-eye-cells to regrow. Sounds a bit fishy, right? I joke.
I have no idea how you teach neurons and other teeny tiny eye parts to grow themselves healthy, but it sounds good to me.
So while I love guide dogs and love that they do important work (yay for the guide dogs and the all-important puppy raisers), I'm even more delighted with the idea they might have fewer people to guide.
I vote yes; the "ayes" have it.

I left before I go
Would it scar?
By these hands
By our lust
Or by the feast?
Soon enough, we will bare
The secret we cannot share
A trance that seamlessly occurring
For sour taste of love will creep in.
Remember its heat
A raging awful beast
Did it passed by your sight?
Perhaps gleaned by this delight?

Hoist Pre-Operational Safety Inspection Part 1: Safety Standards and Regulations
This article is Part 1 of a 7-part blog series that will cover what operators should consider when performing a pre-operational hoist safety inspection. Today, we'll discuss Safety Standards and Regulations.
When using hoisting equipment, it is very important to know and understand all of the safety and inspection standards that apply to your lifting system. Depending on the type of equipment you are using, different standards may apply. This can often be confusing as different regulations apply to different parts of the lifting system.
To explain, let's start with an overview of the most important safety standards and which part of the lifting system they apply to.
ASME is an organization that provides design and inspection standards for hoists and rigging products. ASME is a voluntary committee made up of industry experts. Their standards are voluntary standards updated every three years – not laws like OSHA regulations. Standards are used as guidance for safety because many of our products do not have applicable OSHA regulations.
The first ASME standard you need to be aware of is ASME B30.16. This standard applies to underhung powered hoists, including electric and air, as well as chainfalls. This standard covers construction, marking, inspection, use, and training.
In the entertainment industry, these hoists are covered by ANSI E1.6-2. We recommend if you are in entertainment to obtain a copy of both standards.
The second standard to be aware of is ASME B30.21, which applies to lever hoists, including chain, wire rope and strap hoists.
Where it gets complicated is that, in many cases, there are multiple safety standards you need to understand to use or inspect a single hoist. Take the CM Bandit for example:
- ASME B30.21 applies to the entire hoist
- ASME B30.10 applies to hook inspection, how to use the hook properly, etc.
In this case, you have to understand two standards to ensure proper use and inspection of the Bandit hoist.
When using a full lifting system, the number of applicable safety standards can be even more overwhelming.
Below is a diagram of all the standards that can affect a single lifting system. Depending on whether you're an operator or inspector, there are specific parts of these regulations you need to know detail. When in doubt, always check with the equipment manufacturer.
We know that understanding all of these regulations is no small task and that's where Columbus McKinnon can help! CMCO's professional training department can provide in-depth training on these regulations through an extensive training course offering. Learn more.
Updated on 11/9/15 to address hoists used in the entertainment industry.

I'm curious because I get teased when people find out that I'm 19 and have never had my first kiss yet. I hate being teased but I guess I'm just waiting for the right guy, as cheesy as that sounds, but it's the truth.
So, I'm just wondering is there anyone on here who still hasn't had their first kiss? (:
Most Helpful Girl
I haven't have my first kiss or dated see I lived with 6 older brothers and three of them was always in the same school and they were way over protective anyway I saw what they did with there girlfriends you should be happy you haven't had Ur first kiss I know I am and if a person comes up to you and laughs because you haven't have Ur first kiss say I don't give my kiss away like you my parents actually taught me right and walk away11|00|0
I have 1 older brother (my only sibling actually), but he was never protective of me because he's 22-almost 23 years old and has never had a girlfriend before. But he's a computer geek (always playing World of Warcraft). He's also kind of quiet like me though, so I guess it doesn't help, ha ha but I like your advice in what to say to people if they laugh at me about it, thanks! (:
