Based on real-life case-studies, The Ties That Bind is a theatre piece commissioned by the University of Edinburgh that explores the heart-wrenching effects of early onset dementia. Yes, cheery stuff for a Monday afternoon! The protagonist, Paul, is 56 years old, lives with his sister and is a successful sound engineer who slowly notices ever-increasing lapses in memory. This leads to a medical diagnoses of dementia which inevitably changes the lives of both Paul and his sister, who transitions into the role of carer.
The play does well in conveying the extreme isolation and erosion of confidence that dementia causes to sufferers. As Paul is forced to close his recording studio, his condition increasingly ostracises him from friends and colleagues, leaving his sister as the sole connection to the outside world. As such, she alone carries the burden of care and is exposed to Paul's frustrations and mood-swings as he struggles to adapt to life with dementia.
Thankfully, there are some optimistic aspects portrayed in Paul's journey. He manages to access a support group with other dementia sufferers, and is asked to help a local school with sound recording projects. This is an important element of the story as it provides the audience with a clear message that loneliness can be just as damaging as medical conditions and that there are services available that can help.
Tangled cables and balls of thread are simple props used effectively to portray the tangled state of Paul's mind, with projected images allowing for a blank stage to take the form of different scenes. Disappointingly, the actors struggle to build a strong rapport with each other, leaving the audience with limited emotional investment in the characters. The script aims to produce natural dialogue between Paul and his sister but there is little depth and the delivery is messy and uncoordinated at times, resulting in a slightly unconvincing portrayal of a sibling/carer relationship. However, there is no doubt that The Ties That Bind highlights very important issues that deserve more exposure.

Fortune Magazine reported Tuesday that Snapchat is planning to buy the popular icon and emoji comic maker Bitstrips for around $100 million. There has been no official word from either company yet about an acquisition.
Fortune approached both companies about the deal, though neither was inclined to comment.
Bitstrips raised $15 million in February 2014 from the likes of Horizon Ventures and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, though some sources mark it down to $11 million.
It's a massive deal for the Toronto-based company, which became wildly popular with Facebook users who could quickly animate humorous stories about their lives, family, and friends. Most everyone on Facebook would recognize the signature animation style of the strips, as the characters they generate often find themselves into people's Facebook profile photos.
While they are hardly the first to let Snapchatters and Facebookers create cartoons of themselves with different skin tone options, hair styles, accessories and the like, those avatars have taken off over the last couple of years since their relaunch in October 2013.
Snapchat hasn't been crazy about spending money to buy out the competition or to augment its platform with features by other companies. They last bought Ukrainian startup Looksery for $150 million in September 2015. Before that, they announced deals for Scan ($50 million) and Vergence Labs ($15 million) in December 2014. The company itself is still raises venture capital at a colossal valuation of $16 billion, announcing $175 million in Series F back on March 3 led by Fidelity Investments. Snapchat recently entered into a partnership with Viacom to increase their advertising capabilities.
This acquisition could be a part of that grand strategy. Bitstrips has taken part in mass marketing campaigns, including for recent box office anticippointment Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
"I can't even tell you what our inbox looks like in terms of partnership requests," Bitstrips CEO Jacob Blackstock told Forbes' Alyson Krueger in an interview published March 24 (whether Forbes had caught wind of the acquisition or just had incredibly fortunate timing is unclear). "All of the movies, all the television shows, all the fashion houses, all the pop stars, they all want to be Bitmojis because we somehow became the determinant of who has made it."
That Snapchat's evaluation hasn't changed since last year shouldn't be surprising since there is concern about overvaluation throughout the startup world. The back-and-forth, you're-hot-and-you're-cold approach by Fidelity Investments might indicate some degree of dissatisfaction with the social media giant.
Fidelity cut back 25% of its equity in the company last year, though it added back 15% before we entered 2016.
The Viacom deal in February might have been the green light Fidelity needed to put more money into the company with the Series F round.
It remains to be seen how Snapchat will use Bitstrips as the details of the deal remain elusive and both companies refuse to confirm it. But there is no denying that Snapchat is betting big for its investors.

Duties of bailor
The bailor is entitled to following duties:
(a) The bailor must disclose all the known faults in the goods; and if he fails to do what, he will be liable for any damage resulting directly from the faults. For example: A delivers to B, a carrier, some explosive in a case, but does not warn B. The case is handled without extraordinary care necessary for such articles and explodes. A is liable for all the resulting damage to men and other goods.
In the case of bailment for hire, a still greater responsibility is placed on the bailor. He will be liable even if he did not know of the defects. A hires a carriage of B. The carriage is unsafe though B does not know this. A is injured. B is responsible to A for the injury.
(b) It is the duty of the bailor to pay any extraordinary expenses incurred by the bailee. For example, if a horse is lent for a journey, the expense of feeding the house would, of course, subject to any special agreement be borne by the bailee. If however the horse becomes ill and expenses have been incurred on its treatment, the bailor shall have to pay these expenses.
(c) The bailor is bound to indemnify the bailee for any cost or costs which the bailee may incur because of the defective title of the bailor of the goods bailed.
Bailee's Particular Lien
Where the goods are bailed for a particular purpose and the bailee in due performance of bailment, expands his skill and labour, he has in the absence of an agreement of the contrary a lien on the goods, Le., the bailee can retain the goods until his charges in respect of labour and skill used on the goods are paid by the bailor. A gives a piece of cloth to B, a tailor, for making it into a suit, B promises to have the suit ready for delivery within a fortnight, B has the suit ready for delivery. He has a right to retain the suit until he is paid his dues. The section expresses the Common Law principle that if a man has an article delivered to him on the improvement of which he has to bestow trouble and expenses, he has a right to detain it until his demand is paid.
The right of lien arises only where labour and skill have been used so as to confer an additional value on the article.
Particular and General Lien
Liens are of two kinds: Particular lien and General lien. A particular lien is one which is available only against that property of which the skill and labour have been' exercised A Bailee's lien is a particular lien.
A general lien is a right to detain any property belonging to the other and in possession of the person trying to exercise the lien in respect of any payment lawfully due to him.
Thus, a general lien is the right retain the property of another for a general balance of accounts but a particular lien is a right to retain only for a charge on account of labour employed or expenses bestowed upon the identical property detained.
The right of general lien is expressly given by Section 171 of the Indian Contract Act to bankers, factors, war fingers, attorneys of High Court and policy-brokers, provided there is no agreement to the contrary.

Psalm 16
– The inheritance of David. Your inheritance is what your parents give you when they die. David says Saul made him go away from his own country. The inheritance of David was there. But David had a better inheritance. The Lord was his inheritance.
– The God of David. Saul told David to find other gods. But David already had the best God that there was. David had the only God. He had no need to make a change.
And Walk with You to Heaven
Keep me safe, my God, because I come to you for help.
All the good things in my life come from you.
It is they that do such good things.
They will be more than sorry.
I will not offer gifts of blood to other gods with them.
I will not even say the names of these other gods.
– The saints on earth. These are the people of the Lord, or the righteous. The righteous are people that God sees as clean. They are not his enemies. Saints is a word that the New Testament uses for Christians. The New Testament is part of the Bible. It tells us about Jesus and the Church.
– People that run after other gods. 'Run after' is the Hebrew way of saying 'go and serve.' These are the enemies of God. Christians call them 'unbelievers' because they do not believe in the one true God. Jesus came to show us the one true God. What does 'gifts of blood' mean in verse 4? In the time of David they killed animals and sometimes children for their false gods. David called these 'gifts of blood'.
You make safe what is mine.
Or, You chose a part for me that is very pleasing.
Yes. My part is really very beautiful.
In the dark nights, my
With him at my right hand nobody will move me.
My body will be safe when I sleep.
You will not let your
With you, I will enjoy myself a lot.
At your right hand there is pleasure
– David will have the Lord for a teacher
– Nobody will move David away from what he believes
– David will always be safe and happy
– David will not go to Sheol
– David will live with the Lord now and when David dies
Who was the holy one? In the psalm, David was talking about himself. But for Christians it tells us about David's

Davis was blacklisted in the 1970s for speaking up about racism in the music industry, then later earned a doctorate in clinical psychology and balanced performance dates with appointments to see patients.
He was adventurous with his approach to playing music," said pianist Nate Morgan, who played with the elder Davis intermittently over the last 10 years. It takes a certain amount of integrity to step outside the box and say, 'I like it here and I'm going to hang here for a while.'"
Known for his stunning and complete mastery of the instrument, Davis was able to jump between genres. He played classical music with the New York Philharmonic, was a member of the NBC, Westinghouse and CBS orchestras, and played for Broadway shows.
The most enriching experience of his career was collaborating with John Coltrane. Described by jazz critic Nat Hentoff as Coltrane's favorite bassist, Davis performed on the saxophonist's albums including Ascension," Volumes 1 and 2 of The Africa/Brass Sessions" and Ole Coltrane."
The two musicians met one night in the late 1950s at Small's Paradise, a jazz club in Harlem.
Davis viewed his instrument as the backbone of the band," one that should inspire the group by proposing harmonic information with a certain sound quality and rhythmic impulses," Davis said in an excerpt from So What magazine posted on his Web site.

Tuesday, 14 November
Tuesday, 14 November
From 9.00 a.m. to 12.00 a.m. we had the second meeting of the Sixth Plenum. President Kung made an administration report and Wang Chonghui reported on diplomacy. 1) The League Council passed the 16th clause of the alliance treaty with regard to the regulation of sanctions last September, which could apply to the Sino-Japanese Incident, but it was unable to launch a collective sanction. Therefore our side strongly demanded the establishment of a committee for readjusting sanction actions among various countries at the League of Nations meeting this January, but it was still not passed. In other words, various countries were unwilling to carry out sanctions. When Japan occupied the Spratly Islands which threatened Britain and France, we took the opportunity to request the establishment of the readjusting committee, still Britain and France did not agree, but only noted Japanese behavior as aggression in the resolution. It was originally scheduled for that September meeting, but because of the European war, it would be postponed to 4 December. But yesterday we received a cablegram saying that issues concerning Poland and Czechoslovakia were difficult to handle and some advocated that a cancellation of the meeting was very likely to happen. 2) With regard to the Sino-Japanese Incident, there were three international conferences. A) Assembly of the League of Nations and the League Council. B) the meeting of the Far East Advisory Committee C) The meeting for the Nine Power Treaty in the capital of Belgium. There were five resolutions, three reports and two declarations. The summary of their contents was as follows: 1. Japan was recognized as a country of aggression. 2. It was recognized that the Sino-Japanese issue was related to the Nine Power Treaty and it was unable to be solved by China and Japan on their own. 3. The 16th clause of the alliance treaty could apply to Japan. 4. Various countries should not weaken the fighting resistance of China and should consider methods of assistance. 3) With regard to the deployment of individual action of various countries, as for the Soviet side, this March the Ministry of Foreign Affairs prepared the draft of the Sino-Soviet Commercial Treaty and forwarded it to President Sun Fo to bring to the Soviet Union and formally signed it with the Soviet representative, Minister of Foreign Trade, Anastas Mikoyan, on 16 June. In September when the new Soviet Ambassador to China Panyushkin presented his diplomatic credentials, what he said and his sentiments exceeded normal diplomatic practice. He not only showed deep sympathy and put great emphasis on our resistance efforts, but also hoped that we would score a complete victory. He also said that the assistance his country offered was not paying lip service but substantial. The Soviet Union not only helped us on material aspects such as planes and various weapons as well as others, but also tried its best to help us at various international conferences. On 15 September, though an armistice agreement had been reached between the Soviet Union and Japan, the Soviet attitude to us did not change at all and it continued providing assistance to us as usual. So we should not take the Soviet-Japanese agreement too seriously. 2) With regard to the British-Japanese Joint Declaration, our side had expressed great dissatisfaction. The British Foreign Minister replied to us explaining that this declaration referred, in particular, to local incidents, and absolutely did not change fundamental British policy towards China. We asked the British Ambassador to China regarding the re-opening of British-Japanese negotiations in Tokyo, and he said that it was exclusively on the local issues in Tianjin. Recently Britain provided assistance to us in the form of a security loan for export credit and organised a balance foreign exchange fund with us with a capital of 5,000,000 pounds. Concerning providing materials and transportation, both Britain and France helped us substantially. 3) The United States protested to Japan on 6 October 1938 and 31 December 1938. Besides lending us US$25,000,000, the United States even had more stern expressions towards Japan such as A) In the memorandum sent to Japan on 17 May this year with regard to the demands for changes from the Japanese side over the Public Concession in Shanghai, the United States showed stern language. B) On 26 July 1939, the United States notified Japan of the abolition of the American-Japanese Commercial Treaty in 1911. C) Key Pittman proposed to impose an embargo of raw materials for weapons on Japan. This proposal seemed likely to be passed. As a matter of fact since the start of the European war, Britain and France, as well as other countries, paid high prices to buy enormous amounts of raw materials for making military products. Even the United States had concerns that their supplies would be completely depleted and nothing left for its own use. Therefore Japan certainly had difficulty in buying from the United States. American policies were strongly influenced by public opinion. According to the results of the latest opinion polls on 30 August, 80 per cent of people agreed to abolish the American-Japanese Commercial Treaty and 19 per cent disagreed, while 82 per cent of people agreed on imposing an embargo of raw materials for weapons on Japan, and 18 per cent disagreed. According to reports, Japanese exports to the United States decreased by 40 per cent as compared with before the war. 4) As for Germany and Italy, our side still maintained cordial relationships. 5) Materials and transportation: Vietnam had allowed us to pass through their territory free of tax. Concerning Yunnan-Burma, the highway had been completed. As for the railway, it was because the Burmese feared China would experience massive migration and the manipulation of foreign investment, as well as the British side not believing our side having adequate preparation, that it was still under way. In total the report took more than an hour and Wang Chonghui was really good in choosing the appropriate information. His Mandarin has also improved a lot. (He employed a Northern Chinese to teach him to read the Book of Songs.) Xu Keting (徐可亭) sat next to me. He also joked in his report that Wang Chonghui was making progress. In the past Chen Gongbo (陳公博)[1] composed a jovial poem saying that when Wang Chonghui made a report (in Mandarin) it took him a lot of time but it did not work and did not warrant a good mention. What he said was unclear to all. But that could not apply to Wang Chonghui now.
At 3.00 p.m. we had the examination meeting of the political penal. I, and Cheng Tianfang, took the jobs of examining the diplomatic reports, the affairs of the Overseas Chinese and the implementation of the resolutions of the Fifth Plenum meeting. When I was back I asked Counsellor Feng Ruofei (馮若飛) to prepare the diplomatic report.
At 7.00 I went to the Shengsheng restaurant to have dinner with He Boping (何伯平), Zhou Yanming(周演明), Huang Junbi and Tianjuan. He Boping told me that Li Hanhun (李漢魂)[2] asked him to be the Magistrate of Lian County. I told him that it was most difficult to be a magistrate during this period of time. Also what he was doing now was related to his study so it was not wise to change to another job. He agreed too and decided to return to Neijiang.
[1]Chen Gongbo(1892-1946) was Cantonese. He was a KMT politician and was close to Wang Jingwei. He was sentenced to death for treason and executed by shooting in 1946. He had studied at Peking and Columbia Universities.
[2] Li Hanyun(1895-1987) was a Cantonese military leader.

Looks like J.T. Barrett was hesitant to throw his presence into Ohio State's Homecoming festivities last weekend.
Instead, Barrett is in the house today to take in the Buckeyes' clash with Minnesota.

It's Barrett's first time back in Ohio Stadium since the Spring game, and his first time since he concluded his college career at home against Illinois last season. He still holds over two dozen school records, and is also the all-time leader in total yards having Drew Brees' record last season. Brees now owns the NFL record for total passing yards.
The Buckeyes face Minnesota today at noon.

Lewis Hamilton snatched pole position from home favourite Daniel Ricciardo in the dying seconds of a thrilling Australian Grand Prix qualifying session Saturday, as world champion Sebastian Vettel failed to make the top 10.
Australia's Ricciardo, embarking on his first race with Red Bull, stormed to the top of the field on his last run, before he was trumped by Mercedes' Hamilton in a flying final lap in treacherous wet conditions.
The 2008 world champion's German team-mate, Nico Rosberg, placed third, with McLaren rookie Kevin Magnussen fourth and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso fifth in the season's first qualifying session.
But there was a sensational miss for Vettel, seeking his fifth straight world title and record 10th consecutive race win, who failed even to reach the final qualifying shoot-out and will start from 12th.
Hamilton's Q3 time of 1min 44.231sec, three-tenths better than Ricciardo, gave him his third Melbourne pole and the 32nd of his career, equalling the total reached by fellow Briton and ex-world champion Nigel Mansell.
"It's been an interesting weekend and today made it so much more harder for everyone with the conditions," Hamilton said.
"But I'm really happy with what the team did and these new cars are a lot harder to drive in the wet -- it was the first time for me driving in the wet (in the new car) so it was a serious task and challenge today."
Vettel had been struggling in his Red Bull car, slow to adapt to a raft of technical changes, and he was held up in Q2 after Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen hit a wall and yellow flags ordered drivers to slow down.
It was the first time since Abu Dhabi in 2012 that Vettel has missed Q3, while Hamilton's pole position ends Red Bull's run of eight consecutive races after the Belgian Grand Prix in August.
"It was tricky conditions, for some reason we had more problems today than we had yesterday... the speed is there so we'll see what it (the car) can do tomorrow," Vettel said.
"It's a long race, anything can happen we've seen this year so far that with these cars anything is possible so especially in the race I think there will be plenty of opportunities, so we'll see what we get."
Vettel will be in good company halfway down the grid after former world champions Raikkonen and Jenson Button of McLaren also failed to reach the final qualifying shoot-out.
Raikkonen nosed into a wall and came to a stop, while Button, who had claimed two previous poles in Melbourne, was 11th quickest and just missed out on Q3.
But while Vettel was lamenting his qualifying flop, his new team-mate Ricciardo -- replacing retired fellow Australian Mark Webber -- was beaming after a dream first qualifying drive for Red Bull.
"It was exciting. Definitely the weather added to the mix and the whole session went well," said Ricciardo.
"It was the first time we've all driven these cars on the limit in wet conditions. It was tricky but at the same time it was a lot of fun and really nice for the first qualifying session (for Red Bull)."
Toro Rosso's Jean-Eric Vergne impressively placed sixth, with his rookie Russian team-mate Daniil Kvyat eighth. The two were split by Force India's Nico Hulkenberg.
But Lotus had a nightmare first outing of the season when both their drivers, Romain Grosjean and Pastor Maldonado, went out in Q1.
Rain lashed the circuit 10 minutes into qualifying, sending fans scurrying for their umbrellas and rain jackets.
Hamilton and then Rosberg went quickest in the final seconds before Ricciardo brought a mighty roar from the crowd when he outstripped the Mercedes pair in his Red Bull.

Do any of your members need accommodations?
- Wheelchair accessibility
- Family restrooms
- Restrooms or space to change clothes
Select a place where everyone will feel comfortable. Decide what atmosphere matches the goal of your event, and keep it in mind as you search for possible venues.
If you're meeting in a business, connect with management to let them know you're coming. Encourage your members to be supportive by buying a beverage or a snack.
What do you want your event to look like?

Yelp: Yelp is a quick way to find opinions about local spaces. Yelp reviews often contains venue details you might not see on a space's website. You can quickly crowdsource data about whether a place takes credit cards, has ample parking, and if it's considered good for groups overall.
Google Maps: You can use Google Maps to easily get a sense of the spaces in a local area. You can read user-created reviews, see what times a place is busiest, and see suggestions for other similar venues in the area.
Crowdsourcing: The members of your group are passionate about the same thing you are, so they likely already have some good ideas about where to go. Ask them to share their ideas — you may find someone with a connection to the perfect space.
Local community spaces: There are likely many community-oriented options available for minimal costs. If they match your desired atmosphere, try reserving time at one of these options.

Effort quotes
There are no traffic jams in the second mile.
Have you ever watched a stonecutter at work? He will hammer away at a rock for perhaps a 100 times without a crack showing in it. Then, on the 101st blow, it will split in two. It is not that blow alone which accomplished the result, but the 100 others that went before as well.
The grass may be greener on the other side of the fence, but you still have to mow it.
God gave us two ends – one to sit on and one to think with. Success depends on which one you use. Head you win, tail you lose.
The view is better when it is earned.
Some people dream of success while others wake up and work hard at it.
Many an opportunity is lost because a man is out looking for four-leaf clovers.

It started with a box and a question. How can we do something good and re-use a growing supply of shipping boxes? The answer: Give Back Box. The Give Back Box makes it possible to donate to Goodwill from the convenience of your own home. Consumers simply reuse their shipping boxes when shopping online with Goodwill's brand partners by attaching a pre-paid shipping label downloaded at www.goodwill.org/givebackbox. An innovative approach was needed to launch the box and get the program off the ground at the start of the holiday season. Goodwill turned to Summit Group to creatively and effectively execute a plan that would get the news out in time.
Spread awareness and generate interest about Give Back Box program.
Develop messaging and delivery method on budget and on schedule.
Encourage media recipients to promote the program to their respective audiences.
Summit decided to go a step above your average press release. Instead we created a media-friendly promotional package consisting of a Goodwill branded shipping box containing a heat-sensitive tumbler with an imprinted call-to action, "Donate Stuff. Create Jobs", which was activated on the outside when a hot beverage was poured into the tumbler. Inside the tumbler included literature about the Give Back Box program. The tumblers were packaged and shipped out in time to arrive a week prior to Cyber Monday to inspire targeted media recipients to help spread the word among their readers and listeners. The Cyber Monday angle was unique as most consumers often shop on that day but do not necessarily donate.
Many of the contacts who received the boxes wrote articles (364 media placements) in local and national media outlets and posted the news on their social media channels resulting in 526,543,530 audience impressions. The Give Back Box campaign has successfully diverted nearly 75,000 pounds of household goods from landfills. Additionally, Give Back Box has helped more than 3,800 customers conveniently donate enough items to provide more than 107,000 hours of job services and training to Goodwill program participants throughout the country.

October Movie Box Office Collection Hit or Flop
The Story of the Film
The film October is a slice of life love story. DHawan is living the life of any carefree 21 year old, revolving around a bunch of friends and fellow hotel interns who feed off each other's everyday moments, their ups and downs. Shiuli is one such intern at the same hotel, who at times is at a receiving end of Dan's audaciousness. Life goes on until a sudden turn of events smashes Dan and Shiuli's lives together, into a bond that's unlike any 21 year olds. The emotional connection between them goes through a metamorphoses that brings out a form of love that's unlike any other eventually leading to an internal awakening. October is not a Love Story, but rather a story about love.
Box Office Collection of the Film
Varun Dhawan's new film October is about to complete a week at the theatres and has raked in a box office collection of almost Rs. 28 crores in six days, reported trade analyst Taran Adarsh. The director of the movie is Shoojit Sircar and is known for making low budget films. Thus with a good buzz of the feature film in the media, it is likely to surpass the budget of the feature film in the first weekend as well.
Octoberstarted off on a rather slow note at the box office and then picked up pace over the weekend. It recorded an opening day collection of Rs. 5 crores and then made over Rs. 14 crores during the weekend. October witnessed a sharp dip in its collection figures as it entered the week on Monday, when Mr Adarsh tweeted to say that October required to be consistent with its numbers over the week days. After Tuesday's collections, he said October is "rock steady."
#October biz jumps again on second Sat… Shows 80.95% growth… Nears ₹ 40 cr mark… [Week 2] Fri 1.89 cr, Sat 3.42 cr. Total: ₹ 35.55 cr. India biz.
— taran adarsh (@taran_adarsh) April 22, 2018
This is what he wrote about October's collection figures so far: "October Fri 5.04 cr, Sat 7.47 cr, Sun 7.74 cr, Mon 2.70 cr, Tue 2.61 cr, Wed 2.43 cr. Total: Rs. 27.99 cr. India biz."

Lethbridge High School Grad Photos [Hailey]
Tuesday, June 7th, 2016
This graduation season I was thrilled to work with Hailey for her Lethbridge high school grad photos. From our brief time taking photos, she gave off such an air of maturity and kindness. She is beautiful both inside and out!
The rain from the day before and threat of even more rain that day made for fantastic photos in Indian Battle Park. The colors became so deep and rich, really making Hailey's dress pop out.
Hailey wore a stunning black and gold floor length dress with sheer lace accents, and the gold perfectly complemented her long blonde hair. She rocked that dress!

10th April 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the tragic loss of the TEV Wahine in Wellington Harbour with the loss of 51 lives (eventual toll, 53 lives).
This event shocked the New Zealand nation, but also the international maritime community. It remains New Zealand's best known, but not that country's worst shipping casualty. One of the images shows TEV (turbo or turbine electrical vessel) Wahine listing and being abandoned from her starboard side, about an hour before she rolled over and sank in Wellington Harbour that afternoon.
Surely among the most beautiful of the many fine vessels built by the Fairfield Shipbuilding & Engineering Company Ltd of Govan, Glasgow, the Wahine was fitting out at Fairfield's on the Upper Clyde when her builder went into receivership on 15th October 1965. Fairfields (Glasgow) Ltd subsequently completed her, but the Wahine failed to meet her contract speed of 22 knots when steaming the Arran Measured Mile in the Firth of Clyde on 27th May 1966 and again on 14th June 1966.
She entered the Wellington- Lyttelton Steamer Express service on 1st August that year for her owner, the Union Steam Ship Company of New Zealand Ltd.
Just 20 months later, entering Wellington Harbour at the finish of a routine overnight voyage from Lyttelton, TEV Wahine was struck suddenly, without any warning to her bridge, by the worst weather event ever recorded in New Zealand's history up until that time. Driven onto Barrett Reef, without engines or steering and with all but four of her 14 watertight compartments fully or partially flooded, in a tribute to the skill of her Scottish builders she remained afloat, stable and upright for the next 5½ hours while dragging her anchors up-harbour in winds gusting to 123 knots.
Eventually and inevitably however, the Wahine began listing as the result of free surface effect from water that had seeped onto her main vehicle deck. All 734 of her passengers and crew were evacuated from the ship in her lifeboats and life rafts, but 51 lost their lives in the sea before they could be rescued.

Fugro creates 'Fugro Chair in Geotechnics' at UWA
Fugro is to fund the creation of a new 'Fugro Chair in Geotechnics' at the University of Western Australia's Centre for Offshore Foundation Systems (COFS).
The agreement, which also provides funding for three PhD scholarships, was signed by Professor Robyn Owens, UWA's Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) and Dr Phil Watson, Director of Fugro Advanced Geomechanics (AG) in Perth and Fugro's Global Service Line Manager GeoConsulting.
Fugro is an expert in the safe, efficient and reliable design of offshore foundations, the company says in the release.
Its unique knowledge of the behaviour of carbonate soils found offshore Australia, and in other regions of the world, stems from more than two decades of involvement in all major oil and gas developments off Australia's North West shelf, Fugro explains.
"The close collaboration between Fugro and COFS will assist in ensuring the group's applied research is targeted to solving real world problems," said COFS Director, Winthrop Professor Mark Cassidy.
COFS performs cutting edge research that is directly relevant to the offshore industry in Australia and throughout the world. The centre is a major node of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Geotechnical Science and Engineering, of which Fugro is a Partner Organisation.
By establishing the 'Fugro Chair in Geotechnics,' Fugro and COFS aim to develop a sustainable research group, which is significant to Fugro's activities worldwide and supports the wider geotechnical community. The group will address key research questions related to design and performance within the field of offshore geotechnics, reducing risk and enhancing engineering design within the offshore sector.
"The close collaboration between Fugro and COFS will assist in ensuring the group's applied research is targeted to solving real world problems," explained COFS Director, Winthrop Professor Mark Cassidy. "Fugro will leverage this to provide enhanced solutions for its clients."
Dr Phil Watson added, "The creation of the 'Fugro Chair in Geotechnics' is fully aligned with Fugro's strategic objective to further expand its global consultancy business. This initiative combines the best consultants and researchers with the high quality earth data acquired by Fugro's geotechnical and survey experts."

This is the last interesting threesome that Tina and I have had together. We were going away for a weekend with the sole purpose of hooking up with another guy for a threesome.
We posted on Craigslist assuming we would get a lot of requests to join us. We settled on an older gentleman in his early 50's because he not only was the most intriguing but he offered us the use of his place which had a jacuzzi and multiple fireplace and big screen tv's. Now it was only supposed to be the three of us but Rich was part of a swingers group and wanted us to join him at a swingers party instead.
We said no but I arranged with Rich to have 3 other guys come over and surprise Tina. When we arrived at his house Tina changed into her 2 piece bathing suit which showed off her full34c tits beautifully. The plan was for Rich to receive a phone call and excuse himself to answer it. This call was to let us know his friends (all early 50's also) were at the door.
Rich let them big tits porn tv spicy big boobs quietly and rejoined us in the jacuzzi. Now we started feeling Tina's tits up and removed her top. This she was all for but when she turned and saw 4 other guys she hesitated and was against it.
I asked her to do it for me and that I really wanted to see her getting gang banged. She didn't want to do it and was ready to call the whole thing off.
I promised her anything if she would do this and she said she would for a necklace with her name in diamonds. Thank goodness her name is only 4 letters long because that even cost me $800 but I was getting what I wanted.
Tina topless now had 6 guys in the tub with her all grabbing at her tits and ripping her bottoms off. They started shoving cocks in her face which she licked the heads of.
Rich had this huge bear skin rug, which had to be fake because I never saw a bear that big, which they dragged Tina onto. This was a sight I still have embedded in my mind.
Five 50 year old's getting worked up over my 25 y/o wife. They kept shoving cocks in her mouth and grabbing at her tits and ass when finally Rich moved up behind her and shoved his cock into her cunt doggy style. She now had a cock in her pussy and 2 going back and forth in her mouth while she was stroking another one.
I was a little disappointed in the staying power of these older guys. Rich immediately came in her pussy while one guy came in her mouth and on her face. When they pulled out the biggest guy stature wise and cock put Tina on her back and fucked her missionary style.
I loved seeing his hanging balls slapping up against her asshole. He also came fast in her cunt. She now had 2 loads in her cunt and one on her face. The last 2 guys we had dp her. Even though her ass gets fucked once in a while it is very tight do to her small size.
5' 102#. They got a good rhythm going and exploded in her at almost the same time. When they pulled out of her I just had to jump on her myself and fuck her very cum slick cunt of which I added another load.
After receiving 6 loads of hot sticky cum all over and in her we watched her clean up in the shower for our viewing entertainment. She also lovingly licked, kissed and sucked these older guys soft cocks now.
They all cleaned up and left leaving just Tina, Rich and me to continue on our originally planned threesome. Even though I could tell Tina enjoyed the attention of all those guys and cocks she really liked just the personal attention of 2 guys. Now we were both hard again from watching Tina and a wide variety of gang bang porn videos. We started again on Tina's great tits while playing with her shaved pussy. I had to lick her pussy now that it was fucked by 4 guys and cum in by three guys.
This she really loved and Rich took over sucking her pussy when he saw how excited it made her. We were both going to fuck her on the rug. First with her on her back then with her on her knees so we could enter her doggy. We went back and forth for twenty minutes fucking her this way as a prelude to double penetrate her again. We both wanted her ass this time so we decided to take turns in her ass also but being that she is my wife I get to cum in her ass. After Rich had his turn in her ass, he laid down and Tina lowered her pussy onto his cock.
Even though her ass was probably stretched from the earlier fucking I added a lot of KY jelly to my cock. I slowly slipped it in her ass. I was able to feel Rich's cock in her pussy and he mine in her ass. I started pumping in and out slowly while Tina was grinding her pelvic onto Rich's cock. We kept this up for 5 minutes or so when I started to go a little faster. I pushed down in her head so she was pressed right into Rich's chest.
Even though he couldn't really pump his cock, the friction from me fucking her ass was getting him off. He held her tight so she couldn't move an inch and I kept picking up my pace and fucked her ass busty redhead babe lennox luxe gets drilled by big cock pornstar and hardcore. She was screaming Oh MY GOD and FUCK MY ASS.
She exploded all over Rich's cock a few times begging for us to cum in her again. I exploded in her ass and when Rich felt me cumming he also came in her ass.
We came so much in her in just ran out of her as soon as she got off of us. She was barely able to walk when we left his place from her hard fuckings. I had to go a week without anymore sex until she wasn't sore anymore but between the $800 necklace and a week without sex I'll take the gang bang every time.

National Fossil Hall To Reopen June 8 at the National Museum of Natural History
The Exhibition "Deep Time" Shows How Earth's Past Informs the Present and Shapes the Future
News Release, Smithsonian Institutes
The Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History will reopen its dinosaur and fossil hall Saturday, June 8. The 31,000-square-foot exhibition will feature an authentic Tyrannosaurus rexskeleton alongside more than 700 other fossil specimens, including mammals, reptiles, plants and insects—some never before displayed at the museum. The exhibition tells the story of 3.7 billion years of life on Earth, highlighting the connections among ecosystems, climate, geological forces and evolution and encouraging visitors to understand that the choices they make today will have an impact on the future. "The David H. Koch Hall of Fossils—Deep Time" is named in recognition of a $35 million gift from David H. Koch.
"Visitors to the new hall will go on a voyage like no other—a journey that begins in the past and ends in the future," said Kirk Johnson, Sant Director of the National Museum of Natural History. "Along the way, they will experience the history of life on Earth—a story told through extraordinary fossils and engaging interactive exhibits. Visitors will also be called upon to consider the very real challenges our planet faces and their role in shaping a desirable future."
What Is Deep Time?
What is normally thought of as history is only a tiny fraction of Earth's actual past. Earth's history has played out over billions of years in what scientists call Deep Time.
Main Messages of the Exhibition
Fossils are clues from the past that reveal life's 3.7 billion-year history on Earth. The Deep Time perspective gives context to the world today and helps predict how the human species and all life will fare in the future. Major themes throughout the hall include:
- All life is connected—past, present and future—to all other life and to the Earth itself.
- Evolution: Life is continually changing through time.
- Ecosystems Change: Ecosystems changed through time and continue to do so.
- Earth Processes: Geological processes and global cycles cause ecosystem and evolutionary changes.
- Extinction: Mass extinctions have periodically devastated life on Earth.
- Age of Humans and Global Change: Humans are now shaping the future and the fate of life on Earth.
The hall is a curving chronicle of the entire history of life on Earth that shows the origin and evolution of plants and animals, recreates their ancient worlds and highlights past examples of climate change and extinction. Visitors can use the Warner Age of Humans Bridge for a panoramic view of the exhibition. They can learn about the myriad ways in which humans are causing rapid, unprecedented change to the planet in the Warner Age of Humans Gallery. This gallery was created in consultation with the museum's Anthropocene Advisory Committee—a panel of eminent scholars, communicators and educators from nationally recognized organizations, who address human impact and climate change on the planet. Other highlights include the FossiLab where visitors can watch experts prepare fossils and the Coralyn W. Whitney Basecamp, a hands-on interactive gallery where visitors can explore the scientific process of asking questions and examining evidence.
Opening Ceremony
A celebratory ceremony will be held Saturday, June 8, at 10:15 a.m. The first 300 visitors to the museum's Madison Drive (National Mall) entrance will be able to participate in the ceremony that will include remarks from Smithsonian Secretary David Skorton and Johnson in the rotunda.
Educational Activities and Programs
Special programming and hands-on activities will help visitors of all ages understand how Earth's past informs the present and the future. On opening weekend, visitors can meet Scott Sampson (PBS's Dinosaur Train), talk with the museum's paleontologists, examine real fossils, watch fossil-themed films and combine art with science through puppet shows, costumed characters and mask-making. The museum will have extended hours throughout summer. Beginning June 8, the museum will be open 10 a.m.–7:30 p.m. daily in June (except June 20) and Thursday–Saturday in July and August (except Aug. 17).
Background on the Museum's Renovations
The fossil hall renovation is one component of a coordinated effort to enhance visitor experience at the National Museum of Natural History. Other projects include:
- Accessible entrances: For the first time in the museum's history, the National Mall entrance will be accessible to all visitors, including those using wheelchairs and strollers. Two new accessible walkways will be completed by the fall, one of which will be in use June 8.
- Life-size Prehistoric Shark: A 52-foot model of a Carcharocles megalodon—a giant shark that once swam in the shallow sea that covered the Washington, D.C., region—will hang in the museum's newly renovated dining facilities opening May 24.
- New Dining Facilities: The museum's West Court renovation will make way for new, more spacious and sustainable restaurants opening May 24.
Project Funding

The Southern Maryland Chronicle is a local, small business entrusted to provide factual, unbiased reporting to the Southern Maryland Community. While we look to local businesses for advertising, we hope to keep that cost as low as possible in order to attract even the smallest of local businesses and help them get out to the public. We must also be able to pay employees(part-time and full-time), along with equipment, and website related things. We never want to make the Chronicle a "pay-wall" style news site.
To that end, we are looking to the community to offer donations. Whether it's a one-time donation or you set up a reoccurring monthly donation. It is all appreciated. All donations at this time will be going to furthering the Chronicle through hiring individuals that have the same goals of providing fair, and unbiased news to the community. For now, donations will be going to a business PayPal account I have set-up for the Southern Maryland Chronicle, KDC Designs. All business transactions currently occur within this PayPal account. If you have any questions regarding this you can email me at firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you for all of your support and I hope to continue bringing Southern Maryland the best news possible for a very long time. — David M. Higgins II

May 2007:Colorado Permanent Drought Update
Posted on May 25, 2014 by stevengoddard
Leading government and academic experts have warned that Colorado is having a permanent drought, due to an increase of 0.0001 mole fraction CO2 over the past century. These experts tell us that global warming has wrecked Colorado skiing and has made spring snow cover disappear.
https://www.ucar.edu/communications/staffnotes/0705/drought.shtml But according to a sobering new study, the Southwest's aridity is about to get worse. Published in the April 9 issue of Science, "Model Projections of an Imminent Transition to a More Arid Climate in Southwestern North America" predicts that climate change will permanently alter the landscape of the Southwest so severely that conditions reminiscent of the Dust Bowl days of the 1930s could become the norm within a few decades.
"Our study suggests a perpetual arid condition over the American Southwest," says Jian Lu, a postdoctoral researcher in ASP/CGD who is an author of the study.
oops. guess that permanent drought wasn't so permanent.

This insect monitoring trap showed up at the preserve this week. It looks like a control for an orienteering course—the navigation target—or a kite stuck in a tree.
A small sign attached to is says that it is part of an insect monitoring project of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.
Since it is hung from an ash tree I assumed they are monitoring for emerald ash borer, a destructive insect pest that just showed up in Pennsylvania last year. The PDA website indicates that the traps are being deployed on 1.5 x 1.5 grids in 35 counties. Emerald ash borer was probably imported in solid wood shipping pallets from its native Asia.
Inside the panels is a chemical that mimics those given off by a dying tree. This attracts insects that make their home in stressed or dying trees, which then become trapped on the sticky panels.
Let's hope the researchers don't find the emerald ash borer here. EAB has the potential to remove ash as a component of the forest, dramatically changing forests wherever it becomes established.
The most important thing you can do to prevent the spread of emerald ash borer is not moving firewood.

This is a yummy, unexpected, and savory dish to serve in the winter…the combination of earthy roasted garlic, heady cumin, and sweet fresh marjoram can stand alone as a main course served with a side of my complimentary roasted garlic & rosemary bread.
1 large butternut squash
2 shallots
1/2 cup Earth Balance (or butter)
1 head of roasted garlic
2 boxes vegetable broth (32 oz each, I use Nature's Promise Organic)
1 package Neufchatel cheese (8 oz.)…this is simply low-fat cream cheese
*you can skip this entirely, or substitute with unsweetened almond milk
1 tablespoon dried marjoram + several sprigs fresh for garnish
1/2 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon pepper
Spoonful heavy cream
- preheat oven to 375 degrees
1) Peel squash, cut off ends, and slice length-wise (be careful, cutting through slowly and steadily), scooping out all seeds. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with cracked black pepper & salt, and place to roast in oven. Squash should take around 45 to 1 hour; test with a fork through thickest part, squash is done with fork goes in easily.
2) Pull off loose skin from garlic, and chop tips off to reveal cloves. Set trimmed-side-up in foil, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with cracked black pepper & salt, pinch foil packet and place in oven along with squash to roast approx. 35 minutes, or until garlic is fragrant and fork inserts easily.
3) Meanwhile, set Earth Balance to melting over low heat in a large pot. Coarsely chop shallots and add to pot; simmer until transparent (3-5 minutes…be careful not to cook on a high heat or burn the shallots), add about 1 tablespoon fresh marjoram leaves, and then pour in vegetable stock.
4) Once garlic & squash have finished roasting, squeeze garlic out of peel & add to soup pot. Chop squash into 1 inch chunks, and add to pot along with any residue. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.
5) Using either an immersion blender*, or a regular blender, blend contents of soup pot until pureed, adding 8 oz. package of neufchatel cheese until smooth & creamy. Stir in remaining spices to taste.
*Immersion blenders are designed to work for short (no more than 1 minute) bursts, and are therefore time-consuming for this process…I recommend a blender.
6) Ladle into serving bowls & garnish with fresh marjoram; swirl a spoonful of cream on top, if desired.

Our weekly Portfolio Spotlight series is a close-up look at the talented people using Format websites to showcase their work. This week, we interview artist Grayson James.
Grayson James initially got into creating his own books when he was just fifteen, a self-described angry teenager in Edmonton, Alberta, looking to kill time. "Self-publishing was very much an outlet from the beginning," he says.
James' initial experimentation with self-published zines lead to an enduring interest in creating printed matter. Now located in Toronto, the recent Ryerson University grad splits his time working at local brand No Fun as well as developing his independent publishing project, Successful Press.
Books are a unifying theme of James' work, which ranges from writing to photography to installation. He prints everything himself at home on a black and white laser printer and binds his books by hand, embracing and expanding the cheap, DIY aesthetic of the punk zines that initially inspired him. James finds that creating within a set of clear limitations like this can foster creativity in unexpected ways, encouraging him to think outside the box about how to make a project work.
His website, built using Format's Offset theme, echoes the minimalistic feel of his printed work, with a neon green typeface providing a memorable contrast to James' predominantly black and white imagery.
We sat down with James to talk about the process behind his work, and why he prefers handmade books to polished publications.
Did you first come to making books through photography, or writing, or design?
Yeah, photography almost entirely. My grandpa was a photographer and an editor for the Associated Press for a long time, so I had that when I was a kid, always being around photo books. I couldn't draw very well, and I always wanted to be a writer but never thought I could do it, so I ended up being a photographer.
How is it different to take photos with the intent of putting them in a book as opposed to putting them online or printing them?
I think that's an interesting question and one that I'm still trying to work through. Part of the place I'm at with my work now is trying to think about the specificity of what I'm doing, like, what am I doing for a gallery? What am I bringing to the physical space? Why is it important that this is shown in an actual site?
The book is the place I start with the project, where it's like, I'll read a lot and then I'll be shooting a bunch, and then sequence that loosely and then write almost in response to one of the images, and from that produce a rough cut of the sequence and make a zine of that. After I do a couple of those, I'll find myself coming to a project that'll make more sense for a gallery maybe, but my practice is shaping I think quite rapidly. I've stopped thinking about making a photograph for the gallery, so photography for me is very much about the book, what's going on, and doing installation work and workshops and discursive projects in the gallery space itself.
I think this is why photo books are so fascinating right now, because for a lot of photographers putting photos online is their primary way of showcasing work—which you can look at sort of as a book, but it's different because they're not physical in the same way.
Yeah, there's a lack of intimacy to the digital that I think is both a benefit and a negative. You know, books are really great because you hold them as close as you hold someone you're hugging, and they're very tactile; they're a slow thing that you move through patiently. The physical object, to me, is important. I want to make things that deteriorate. I'm interested in things that fall apart over time, so a photocopied book that has ink smudges and the binding is falling out—that to me is quite beautiful in a way the digital can't ever quite recreate.
But the widespread dissemination of digital images and the speed with which you can access them is also an exciting front to be working on. I feel like if I want to make good work for the internet, I need to know how to code better. That's sort of where I'm at: how can I find opportunities through coding or through digital design to have the same serendipity and the same structural instability that I'm attracted to in a book.
Yeah, because sharing work online can feel more like putting your photos in someone else's book. You don't always have the same control.
Yeah, totally. I want things to be dirtier and shittier and falling apart, in a way. Serendipity is important to my work. I like the idea of finding a zine at someone's house and being like, "Oh, this is crazy. I would never have found this if I had not been here at the right time." I think recreating that online is hard.
When it comes to selling actual books, it's obviously hard to compete with established publishers. But do you find there are positives to working within the limitations of self-publishing?
I really believe that a bad, poorly made, photocopied zine is often much more exciting and interesting. I feel like there's urgency in those things. I think a small book that's put together kind of hastily—not that I don't take what I'm doing quite seriously, but I think there's a conviviality to that, and a conversational nature to it, that makes it for me much more interesting to read than like a nice, beautiful offset printed book. I want to feel the artist's presence in that object, which I think we sort of lose with the commercial stuff, like a larger publisher. Not to say that always that happens, but I think often it's the case.
Would you have any advice for someone that's interested in getting into independent publishing?
For me it's always about being a member of a community and going to openings and being a friendly person—and supporting people that are doing the same kind of thing as you.
I think reading widely is a thing that I would recommend just to anyone starting anything. Even before thinking about making stuff, just reading a lot and understanding why you're attracted to it and the kind of things you're attracted to.
And then I think you have to just do it. It's daunting, certainly, but it's easy once you start learning how to do a design or even doing a cut and paste photocopy deal. You can do it in a couple of hours and just a couple of Googles, you know?
Think your Format portfolio should be featured in our Portfolio Spotlight series? Send us a link to be considered.

If you are edgy to get more suits, abstain from meals capsules are without a doubt a profoundly tempting advice, even more so in the event that you possess efficiently tried out and tried the standard procedures for becoming more in shape without an excessive amount of achievement. As pointed out from a current document, American citizens are shelling out a lot more than $50 billion dollars on excess weight reduction goods. This shape is depended with to snap up inside the future years. There exists nothing amazing in that. For stressful weight watchers, the interest of supernatural occurrence body weight lessening tablets with their incredible bodyweight lessening claims is just too difficult to leave behind. In any event, before you go out and exhaust your satchel on the subsequent clump of weight lowering pills to hit the stores, ensure that the pills you might have selected communicate whatever they ensure and are okay for usage.
Since I happen to be endeavoring to get more in shape by way of diverse excess weight lessening actions, I can status with affirmation that countless capsules accessible in the wide open marketplace are incapable, as well as set your health and wellbeing in threat. The phenq that guarantee a handy answer to your excess fat decrease concerns are often incapable. Be that as it can, that is not going to mean that body weight lowering pills are absolutely a sham. You can find sure pills that will accelerate the extra weight reduction method. Try and differentiate excess weight reduction pills that can really enable you to get finer.

This sort of products doesn't have any responses. No matter whether they show soft reactions similar to an allergy or even a tingle, you can make certain that they won't produce any reputable signs and symptoms.
Continuously select an excess weight lowering slim down capsule which has experienced some way of measuring testing. Products which have been affirmed through the Federal drug administration are most of the time considered to be protected. Certainly, check out the site of your concerned excess weight lessening capsule and search for client tributes.

Following, comprehend the action of the body weight reduction tablet in the body. Try not to give in to tablets that assure to liquefy body fat away your body.
