B Dolan is a rare artist, not only in terms of the way he vents his obvious and underrated talent, he cares about social issues and is not prepared to hold back. Furthermore he is humble, successful, talented and completely unpretentious. Many more positive attributes can be added, look below to the questions posed by Glasswerk.co.uk
Michael Davis: An alien lands on earth. He doesn't really know much about bands/artists and that – as he's an alien. How would you describe you and your music to said alien?
B Dolan: Describing myself and my music would be the absolute last thing I would be concerned with in this situation. There's so much we need to cover- and quickly- to make sure he's not some kind of advance scout for a hostile alien army. After that we've got to figure out a way to communicate I guess, and then some kind of basic knowledge base… christ. This is a lot.
Anyway, I figure that after awhile, if he can manage to survive and the government doesn't come and take him away for dissection at Area 51… I'll just teach him to use the internet and read my wikipedia page.
MD: It's 2011, the year of the rabbit. What's been your highlight of the year so far? It doesn't have to be anything to do with rabbits.
The undeniable highlight of the year so far has been the Church of Love & Ruin tour, which we put together this past February. It was the most ambitious performance I've ever put on by far, and featured over 30 performers. We brought a 16 piece marching band, the incredible New Orleans Bounce emcee Vockah Redu, drag queens, burlesque performers, and myself to audiences in New York, Providence, Boston, and Maine. The results were something no one involved will ever forget. We'll be releasing a DVD of that within the next year most likely.
MD: God calls you up, and he's wanting to put on a show. Being God and all – he doesn't really have time to choose bands, DJs or a venue. He's put you in full control. Also – again, him being God and all – you can choose anyone alive or dead – he's that good. Who's playing and where?
BD: James Brown, Talking Heads, Michael Jackson, Public Enemy, Run D.M.C., Iggy Pop, Daft Punk, the Beastie Boys, and Big Daddy Kane on the main stage.
Then there's like a little soundproof concrete building behind the main stage with a capacity of 200 people. In there I'll have Bruce Springsteen, Donny Hathaway, John Lee Hooker, and more.
We'll all enjoy the most bitching festival ever, and then ask God why he let the holocaust happen.
MD: What bands/artists are there around at the moment that people aren't listening to enough? Any tips for future stardom?
BD: I have no tips for future stardom, as I have no stardom. All I have is the grind, which I owe everything to. My tip is to grind until you're dead. The success gained from it is hard-earned, but it's more permanent than what "buzz" produces.
As for who's good, I'm really anticipating new albums this year from Dan le sac, Cecil Otter, and Scroobius Pip. I'm obviously biased, but I still believe the folks on my label are some of the most underrated cats in music. Strange Famous Records is a diamond in the rough that more people should be up on.
MD: What's the rest of 2011 – it's the year of the rabbit, don't you know – got in store for you?
BD: I'll be touring for the next two months and spending a month recording material in the UK for some upcoming releases. I'm beyond excited for people to hear the new songs, and they've been killing at live shows. I'm definitely feeling inspired and excited about work.
MD: That alien from Q1 is back – he's just got his mitts on a computer, and he wants to find out more about you. Where's the best place he can go to find out more?
BD: BDOLAN.NET is the clearinghouse for information from now on. Again I just think this alien's priorities are fucked, but I'll be grateful if he buys some merch and supports the cause.
The questions changed a little to reflect his political grindings.
Jonathan Nicholson: I have seen that you are involved with the knowmore.org campaign (co-founded with Sage Francis). Is this issue, of corporate control of the political system, the most troubling to you at the moment?
BD: In a lot of ways it is, yes. I see almost all of the other problems that people are dealing with tied directly back to corporate control of politics. It's the reason we can't change things that are so obviously destructive to us. Our interests are almost completely absent from the political process at this point, because we can't provide politicians with what they need to win at this point. What they need isn't our votes; they just need enough money to buy them.
JN: Is this a campaign to reform or to overthrow capitalism?
BD: It's a campaign to reform or overthrow corporations. What we have at the moment is barely capitalism. It's a corporate welfare state where the government keeps it's finger on the scale in favor of big business and multinationals.
JN: Is it more important to have grass-roots movements than party-political movements?
BD: It's important that party-political movements not be confused with grass-roots movements. The US political system is completely dominated at this point by two corporate owned center-right parties. Grass-roots movements and third parties never are allowed to get more than a tenuous leg up, and Republicans and Democrats sort of just pass the baton back and forth while staying the course.
Grass-roots movements are certainly the last bastion of democracy at this point, and they're endangered to say the least.
JN: Are you involved with any other sort of political activity?
BD: I'm a big believer in the personal being political. It's a political act these days to be an independent musician. In some ways it's political when people come together at my shows to talk about and experience the kind of show they do. In addition to that I'm usually active working for campaigns during the political season, and promoting the causes and information I find relevant to my fanbase continually.
JN: Is it the role of government to keep the corporations in check, or is the role of the people to be wise to what corporations do as part of ethical consumerism?
BD: Ethical consumerism cannot control corporations. The problem is well beyond that at this point, and in fact individual responsibility is something industry loves to hide behind. Sure, if we all recycled, it can make a difference to the environment… but how much more of a difference could be made with the passing of legislation causing the world's largest polluters to recycle? At this stage in the game, we need global regulation of corporations.
JN: In the UK there has been political activism about the government cuts to the public sector (the NHS, education and welfare), but little in the way of reforms and taxation on the big corporations. What do you think of this?
BD: It's the same old story everywhere you go. Rights are slowly reclassified as privileges, privileges are slowly privatized. More and more people are left out in the cold, and more and more imbalance appears between the rich and poor. When these things reach a breaking point, the situation explodes and everyone asks 'Why?'
JN: Some direct action in the UK has also taken place – The Free Hetherington at the University of Glasgow, numerous other student occupations at other universities and demonstrations about cuts to courses and increases in tuition fees, occupations of stores and banks which evade tax in London and other cities in the UK. What are your feelings on direct action? Do you think that there are limits to direct action?
BD: Direct Action is the last best tool people have, in my opinion. It worked for Dr. King, and it worked for Gandhi and countless others. It continues to work in the Middle East and we've seen that this year as well. I'm a strong endorser of direct action.
JN: Do you feel it is important, as an artist, to use your position to highlight the cause of people who are otherwise unable to speak out?
BD: Absolutely.
Thanks for the interview, and see you at the show!

T-Bird Stocker Color Shifter - Treasure Hunt?
Edit: See the actual post of this car here!
5 comments:
I thought I had something special, I found this same car todayReplyDeleteReplies
Yeah it's not a t-hunt, from what I heard this exact car was released some years back when the circle flame logo had no relation to treasure hunts.Delete
Too bad :(ReplyDelete
Do they even have treasure hunt color shifters?
I really like these cars I do not know about the color shifter playsets but the cars themselves are amazing. They're really well built and are incredibly sturdy. The color shifting is very obvious as they change colors drastically unlike the older generations of color shifting toys were the color would change from a dark one to a light one. Here you really see the difference.
My son has two of these and you can check em out at Hot Wheels Color Shifters and can also see the process of them changing colors.Replies
Don't think so, not that I am aware of anyways. I agree, the cars are excellent and they hold their colors very well too. It's pretty fun to use an ice cube to draw on the cars too.Delete
Thanks, I just took a look, nicely done!
I just bought one today and im thinking it should be a treasure hunt / error car!Delete

text: Originals: Moonshot by Buffy Sainte-Marie (covered by Galaxie 500 and Dean & Britta) Posted by Andy on 22 January 2014 in categories: originals Buffy Sainte-Marie's song Moonshot first appeared on the album of that name in 1972. In 2009 Dean interviewed her for Magnet and asked her about the song: Dean Wareham: I hear [Moonshot] as a protest song about the hubris of space travel, and my favorite line is "I know a boy from a tribe so primitive, he can call me up without no telephone." And, of course, the string arrangement is fantastic. Why was "Moonshot" not released a single? I assume the record company made that decision. Buffy Sainte-Marie: That's the correct answer. Vanguard seldom took any suggestions seriously from me. Record companies are mostly about the business, not the music. I've always loved that song, too, so thanks for liking it too :) Much of the credit for the beauty of "Moonshot" and other songs on that album, and (1973's) Quiet Places, (1974's) Buffy and (1975's) Changing Woman, goes to Norbert Putnam, producer, bass player and owner of Quadraphonic Studios. He shared not only his talent but engaged his friends (many from the Area Code 615 band out of Muscle Shoals, Ala.) in the albums, so there are great, great players adding their own talents. Norbert's friend Glen Spreen did the strings for "Moonshot." (play on YouTube) Galaxie 500 covered the song for their second Peel Session in 1990: Peel Sessions by Galaxie 500 Dean revisited the track for Dean & Britta's L'Avventura album in 2003 (play on YouTube) ... and a remix by Sonic Boom was released on the Sonic Souvenirs EP Dean & Britta - Moonshot (Myths of Heaven remix by Sonic Boom) Buffy commented on one of Dean's cover versions in the Magnet interview, although it's not clear which one... I saw your version of "Moonshot" on YouTube. Thank you!! It's just gorgeous, and I was so touched when I came upon it — by accident — several months ago. Some of my favorite songs are real obscure like "Moonshot." Hardly anyone knows them. I like your taste. Anyway, many thanks for doing this. I went to your website — cool.

Privacy is a concept that, in the early years of the United States, was assumed to be part and parcel of life. Communication across the country did not even have telegraph. Newspapers were expensive to distribute very far; mail was expensive – if possible. Government records were often on paper, often not. In your town, gossip was the intruder on privacy. In fact, privacy was so complete that you could move to the next county or two and start life all over again: new name, new curriculum vitae; your privacy was absolute.
Criminals like Jesse James could ride from county to county and town to town with only a weak trail of infamy. It was the Eastern novel writers that made him famous. It was possible for criminals to move about freely, even crossing into Mexico and Canada at will.
What whittled away at privacy – including the privacy of those of us who are innocent, was technology. Telegraph came first, then improvements in printing, the telephone, country-wide radio broadcasting, then television. Today it is the Internet, satellites and all the communication accoutrement that comes with it. Virtually every corner has a camera; many stoplights have cameras; eavesdropping is absolute at the National Security Agency where your telephone conversations can be culled from millions of other simultaneous telephone conversations. Current news is talking about drones.
The next wave invading privacy is already upon us and will soon mandate every person's participation. It is called "the cloud." Cloud technology will do away with privacy all together. Desk top computers will disappear because all your software and private files will be stored online somewhere accessible by any nosy inquirer who pays for access to your records. Did you know that Google already reads all your email and recommends products and services to you based on even one word in your text – if not all of them?
Your home is no longer your private castle. It is as porous as a sieve.
The mariner can go on and on about the advances of technology and marketing (even your cell phone is not free of marketing). What is more important to the mariner is the crushing elimination of the concept of privacy. It is so severe that children growing up in today's world dismiss privacy because of the communication, education, and convenience of these devices. They don't know that an army of marketers, governments, and criminals are taking in all that traffic without their permission. Insects used to be the only invaders in our homes, now it's bugs of a different kind: spam, website tracking, Trojans that take over your machine – all without asking permission. That's the rub. No one asks your permission. Your privacy doesn't belong to you anymore. It belongs to the purveyors of your name and assets. Going to the grocery store is tracked by cameras on the way there and a record of your charges showing what you bought is collected. But they didn't ask your permission.
Compromising privacy for the sake of protection against illegal behavior is one thing but all privacy is lost when criminals are one of the technology parties wanting to know everything about you.
I miss living a life that was mine. I miss engaging in the world on my own terms. I miss privacy. It is nice to be able to sail away from all this. The ocean doesn't care who you are, where you're going and, despite the anxieties of landlubbers, is a peaceful place.

THE SUM-MER OF SANGAILE, the official Lithuanian entry into the upcoming Best Foreign Language Film contention. Whatever reaction those scenes produce, I can't help but think that members will be greatly impressed with the cinematic beauty and quiet, tender artfulness of this unusual movie. Its plot may be a mere wisp, involving the coming-of-age of its fragile heroine, yet the film's visuals -- beginning to end -- prove stunning.

Strand Releasing, in Lithuanian with English subtitles and running 97 minutes, this Lithuania/France/Netherlands co-production opens in New York City at the IFC Center this Friday, November 20, and in Los Angeles at the Sundance Sunset Cinema on December 4.

Of the blogs I read regularly, Steve Denning on Forbes.com consistently writes the most thoughtful ones about management. Recently he posted about the ten happiest and the ten most hated jobs in America. I think there are some lessons in the lists for managing media organizations and media salespeople.
- Clergy: The least worldly are reported to be the happiest of all.
- Firefighters: Eighty percent of firefighters are "very satisfied" with their jobs, which involve helping people.
- Physical therapists: Social interaction and helping people apparently make this job one of the happiest.
- Authors: For most authors, the pay is ridiculously low or non-existent, but the autonomy of writing down the contents of your own mind apparently leads to happiness.
- Special education teachers: If you don't care about money, a job as special education teacher might be a happy profession. The annual salary averages just under $50,000.
- Teachers: Teachers in general report being happy with their jobs, despite the current issues with education funding and classroom conditions. The profession continues to attract young idealists, although fifty percent of new teachers are gone within five years.
- Artists: Sculptors and painters report high job satisfaction, despite the great difficulty in making a living from it.
- Psychologists: Psychologists may or may not be able to solve other people's problems, but it seems that they have managed to solve their own.
- Financial services sales agents: Sixty-five percent of financial services sales agents are reported to be happy with their jobs. That could be because some of them are clearing more than $90,000 dollars a year on average for a 40-hour work week in a comfortable office environment.
- Operating engineers: Playing with giant toys like bulldozers, front-end loaders, backhoes, scrapers, motor graders, shovels, derricks, large pumps, and air compressors can be fun. With more jobs for operating engineers than qualified applicants, operating engineers report being happy.
No big surprises here. People who help other people, find intrinsic motivation in their work, and have autonomy seem to be happy. There is much more focus on the meaning of their work and of their lives rather than on money.
- Director of Information Technology: Information technology directors hold almost as much sway over the fate of some companies as a chief executive, but they reported the highest level of dissatisfaction with their jobs. Why? "Nepotism, cronyism, disrespect for workers."
- Director of Sales and Marketing: A director of sales and marketing plans reported the second-highest level of job dissatisfaction, "a lack of direction from upper management and an absence of room for growth."
- Product Manager: Product managers complained of restricted career growth, and boring clerical work even at this level.
- Senior Web Developer: Senior web developers reported a high degree of unhappiness in their jobs, because employers are unable to communicate coherently, and lack an understanding of the technology.
- Technical Specialist: A technical specialist reported that for all their expertise, they were treated with a palpable disrespect. Their input was not taken seriously by senior management.
- Electronics Technician: Electronics technicians complain of having too little control, work schedule, lack of accomplishment, no real opportunity for growth, no motivation to work hard, no say in how things are done, and mutual hostility among peers.
- Law Clerk: Clerkships are among the most highly sought-after positions in the legal profession and the job beefs up a resume. Yet law clerks still report high levels of dissatisfaction. The hours are long and grueling, and the clerk is subject to the whims of sometimes mercurial personalities.
- Technical Support Analyst: Technical support analysts help people with their computer issues. This typically amounts to calmly communicating technical advice to panicked individuals, often over the phone, and then going on site only to find the client simply hadn't turned the printer on. They may be required to travel at a moment's notice, sometimes on holidays or weekends.
- CNC Machinist: CNC machinists operate computer numerical control machines. For the uninitiated, this is a machine that operates a lathe or a mill. Now that the CNC operator has had most of the physical hazards of manufacturing replaced by a machine, there's not a lot to do but push buttons and maintenance. Since it's a specialized skill, the job offers no room for advancement.
- Marketing Manager: Marketing managers often cited a lack of direction as the primary reason for job dissatisfaction.
Some surprises here. If people don't feel like they are helping others, don't have room for growth, or have a job focused on extrinsic rewards (money and profits), it appears that they hate their jobs.
But why do sales and marketing directors and product managers say there is no room for growth, when the odds are the CEOs of a majority of companies come out of these jobs? There must be something else going on. I think that in many of the hated jobs there is focus on money and profits and not on meaning, not on helping others.
How Can This Problem Be Fixed?
So what can media companies and media sales management do to make the people who work in their organizations happier (assuming they care about their people being happy)?
One adjustment media managers can make is to emphasize meaning instead of money, emphasize helping and serving others instead of maximizing revenue, increasing shareholder value, or garnering ratings. If salespeople were told their number-one goal is to delight their customers by getting results for them (results as their customers define them) and their number-two goal is to educate customers and give them insights on how they can grow and be more successful, then salespeople more than likely would be happier; they might say to themselves, "I helped someone today."
And instead of compensating media salespeople wholly or partially on commission, why not pay them based on delighting customers by giving them superb service as measured by customer satisfaction surveys?
Emphasizing the purpose and meaning of media sales jobs, providing an intrinsically motivating work environment, and encouraging salespeople to delight customers might well make salespeople happier than paying them more money, and, by the way, it might well increase profits by increasing revenues and reducing expenses. It might be worth a try, especially in attracting younger people who are often looking for work that gives them a sense of meaning.

For me and, I would venture to say, most of my readers, $800,000 is a whole lot of green. But for the people of Major League Baseball, it's not exactly a lot of money — for example, it's roughly one month of Jose Uribe's salary over the next three seasons.
But $800,000 appears to be the amount that sent the Dodgers and Russell Martin their separate ways.
Dodger general manager Ned Colletti told reporters Thursday that as the deadline approached, Martin's agent, Matt Colleran, lowered his pitch to $5 million in base salary (plus incentives). According to Ken Gurnick of MLB.com, the Dodgers were offering a base of $4.2 million.
We can debate all day what salary Martin actually deserved, but given that the two sides were this close, I'm a bit surprised the deal didn't get done. If you think Martin has the potential of helping at all in 2011, I don't know why you'd let less than a million bucks stand in your way. And if you are that skeptical, I'm not sure why you'd be offering even $4.2 million.
But what do I know? Not much. Each side had its magic number, and sometimes, you can't fool with magic.

Tom Fuller Band
by John Noyd
July 2009
Tom Fuller Band live at the Triple M studio in Madison
photo by John McCally
To see Tom Fuller today one would never guess that little over ten years ago he was a solid cog in corporate America and had never written a song all the way through. From the streaked mod haircut to the purple granny glasses and matching sneakers Tom Fuller emanates rock and roll. Tamed danger prowling, the glam-punk poise echoing the bigger than life sound of his band a tight group both young and experienced, sharp and dedicated.
Ironically, after talking with Tom for over a half an hour the conversation was less about music than destiny and life's spiritual journey. Perhaps it's due to the fact that while Tom is the leader and songwriter for the Tom Fuller Band he is entirely self-taught beyond a few guitar lessons when he was nine. In fact, Tom says he's a "song-crafter more than a writer." "I write what I feel; my lyrics are always emotion-based." His gut instinct guides him and serendipity has brought him an entourage of good fortune. "I know in the first twenty seconds if I'm going to like a song." Immediate, intuitive and insistent, Tom also knows personalities and opportunities and has learned how to play them both with rock and roll nonchalance.
When asked how it all turned around for him, Tom has a precise date and story. Memorial Day 1998 his ten year old son was sick and when he was at the pharmacy picking up medicine he also picked up a guitar magazine and opened to an ad for a John Lennon Song-Writing contest. In trying to figure out the logistics of completing a song he connected with someone on the internet who then hooked him up to someone else in the business. Tom didn't win the contest but, as he himself says, "a million baby steps later," he has a band that has two albums to their name and a third one almost finished, a strong fan base in England and Ireland and gigs opening up for King's X, Robin Trower, Blue Oyster Cult and a host of rock royalty.
A reedy voice perfect for the scratchy morning after rock-blues song that comes to life in a field of harmonies, Tom's sleepy enunciations hide its sneers inside its psychedelic gaze. Cranking out riffs amid a barrage of hooks, Tom's tooled tempests are hefty anchors while the ballads are elaborate interwoven melodies. While Tom claims, "you can't control music," he also admits he constantly tweaks it. "Melody is the most important," Tom says, "but starting with a feeling and tapping into life," is his guiding force. "Walk away from the should and woulds," Tom advises, "be open to letting things happen, focus on what's happening at the moment without concentrating on any particular destination."
There is no denying his passionate attitude has produced results. As far as Tom is concerned dreams do come true. For more information, check out his website. www.tomfullerband.com or better yet catch the Tom Fuller Band July 11th at Beloit's Riverfest.(5612) Page Views Tom Fuller Band Online:

Dr. Marie Borum
Colonoscopies: this doctor can do a colonoscopy
Doctor's office Address:
22nd and I St. NW
Washington, DC 20037
Dr. Borum is very knowledgeable, but extremely busy. It sometimes takes over an hour wait past the scheduled appointment to see her. She has several Fellows working under her who see you first and do an initial evaluation. They then inform her and she comes in for the follow up. When she gets there you forgive the wait because she is so personable and answers all your questions in depth. You can see why she runs so behind with how much time she spends with you. She has been supportive of alternative methods and I feel she is up to date on the latest research. At first she was not very responsive to emails but after complaining about it, she has been much more responsive since.
I would recommend her if you have time to wait to see her!

Day 7 - Mykonos, Greece
Friday, July 2, 2004: Happy Birthday, Tom. In the great Bundlings-at-Sea tradition, the birthday boy or girl is photographed in their bathrobe on their birthday.
|The pier at Mykonos is quite new, and buses stand by to shuttle passengers to the town, just 5 minutes away.
|It was another beautiful, cloudless day, which is how we always pictured the Greek islands to be.
|We skipped lunch on the boat so we could enjoy some Greek food in town. We ordered tzaziki, calamari, and Coca-Cola Light, of course!
|A stray kitten came by begging for food. She couldn't have been more than three months old and we fell in love with her.
|Tom dubbed her "Electra" and got this shot of her looking him in the eye to ask for more food.
|Ever the tourist, Debbie had to get her feet in the Aegean Sea. The cafe where we had lunch is visible over her shoulder.
|This is Petros II, the island's pelican mascot. We saw him at the point near the windmills, and later in the day at the harbor.
|Looking back at Mykonos Town from the point.
|Looking back at the point with the famous Mykonos windmills.
|As is our custom, we stopped to enjoy local beer (Mythos) at a cafe in the harbor after a great afternoon of wandering through the side streets, shopping, snacking, and sightseeing. After this, we headed back to the ship to gulp down a quick dinner and change clothes.
|After dinner, we dashed back into town to have some baclava, and ended up at the same table in the same cafe drinking the same beer as the sun went down.
|At one point, several Asian people trailed by a camera crew went racing down the waterfront. When they reappeared a half hour later, we guessed that they were part of a reality show, most likely racing to get to the point where the windmills are. Sadly, we have no way of confirming this.
|The sunset was beautiful from our table.
|We headed back to the ship as the lights of Mykonos Town started to light up the bay. Tom declared it to be the best birthday ever.
Our waiting ship was a lovely sight. Our room is the second row from the top, the fifth cabin from the left, right next to the room with the light on.

I was in grade one, and I had a fantastic teacher named Miss Nora MacNeil. She was a dedicated woman, so loving and encouraging--a stellar example of professionalism and sweetness. I loved her dearly and still wonder to this day how she is.
I did really well in her class, especially in phonics. The fundamentals came naturally to me, and she never failed to gently push my limits.
We started with Mr. Mugs, remember him? The cute cartoon sheepdog? He was right up there with 'See Spot Run', and I went through that series quickly. So she challenged me.
She gave me a new series...something to do with a girl and her horse. (My publisher's company is named after a horse. Sign of things to come?) I don't remember the name of the girl, the horse or any of the books.
I remember THE WORD.
My mother sat with me, night after night, coaxing me to sound out the vowels and syllables. Most of them were reasonably easy. I just sounded them out.
Then came a word I'd never seen before. It was the longest one I'd ever tried to read. I was intimidated, but determined. After all, I liked reading, and I wanted to be good at it. Not just for me, but for my family and Miss MacNeil.
"Use your phonics," my mother said. "You can do it." There were two syllables, but three phonetic compounds to concentrate on. The first two I didn't have much trouble with--I knew what they meant and what they sounded like. The third one...trickier, but I knew it was supposed to say it almost like 'Yite' when I read it...
My mother's reaction was explosive. "Way to gooooo!" She squeezed me hard and gave me a smacking kiss on the top of my head. She was incredulous. "That's a big word for a five year old!"
I giggled, but my eyes were transfixed. All the words ceased to be a bunch of vowel sounds and syllables. I understood them ALL. They were real! And I could really READ! I couldn't wait to tell Miss MacNeil!
The good news is, at the end of the year, I got an award and a gift for reading more books than the rest of the class. I got a homemade card from my beautiful teacher and a record/book called "The Tawny Scrawny Lion." It would signal when to turn the page by the lion saying "Rrrrowr!"
The bad news is, I took to reading the ingredient lists on my morning cereal to become a better reader. My mistake. My proud mother decided that if I couldn't pronounce it, my sister and I shouldn't be eating it. Goodbye Frosted Flakes, hello Puffed Wheat. Oh, well...
Does anyone else have a story like this? I can't be the only one. If so I'd love to see it in the comments below!

Blog & News.
During the BASET project development the partners involved in the project had to answer one important question: how can an Educator (trainer, mentor or coach) identify social entrepreneurs before they start working with him/her to help start-up or develop the social enterprise? The answer was a milestone for the further model development and a basis for creating a questionnaire-based test for social entrepreneurs.
So, whilst working on the project the project team realized that the first step for an educator is to understand profoundly the profile (basic characteristics) of the social entrepreneur and then to do benchmark of the target social entrepreneur(s) with this profile.
The profile of social entrepreneurs responds to a wide concept, where no special characteristics prevail over others. Social entrepreneurs depend neither on gender, nor on age. The social entrepreneur is an "attitude" and a "set of personal values" that push one person to drive an entrepreneurial process with social impact. Thus, a social entrepreneur is a person (man or woman), aged between 18 and 64, with a high level of formal education that promote a social business with both social and economic impact (profit).
Profile of a Social Entrepreneur
The definition of the term "social entrepreneurship" starts with the word "entrepreneurship." Social entrepreneur is a man/woman who finds innovative solutions to society's social problems. Social entrepreneur often has a personal experience of the need he/she is addressing and as such he/she is uniquely positioned to address some of our most pressing social challenges. Social entrepreneur is usually passionate, driven and committed.
The border between classic and social entrepreneurship is not always very clear: classic entrepreneurs may also produce social value in the process of generating shareholder wealth, while social entrepreneurs may produce private gains in their mission to create social value. What differentiates social entrepreneurs from classic entrepreneurs are not necessarily specific abilities, such as confidence or persistence, but their determination to succeed in achieving a long-term social goal they strongly believe in. However, it is considered that all type of enterprises (commercial and social) should have a socially responsible activity, this meaning to assure organizational success by integrating several social aspects in the firm's activity, in order to properly manage the impact of the firm's activity to the environment and solve the community's problems.

Since it's Bow Neck month I gave the shorter version of the Colette Jasmine necktie a try.
I started by carefully removing the bias binding.
Then I altered the front neckline by using a Jasmine pattern piece. The Sorbetto curve at the back was much wider, so I drafted a new pattern piece for the back collar.

And remember the jeans I'm making? Look at those pockets, isn't it a match made in heaven?

It's not over, she says.
You thought
you'd had enough,
that you'd learned to listen.
You held fast
and now it should be over.
You can do more, she whispers.
Thank you for listening
to my beautiful birds
to the beating of your own heart.
Now what?
The borders are closed.
The sickness is rising.
The cabin fever.
The incessant fever.
The pent up emotion, frustration, dismay.
What will you use the immensity of it for?
You are alive.
How will you serve?
What is your creative contribution?
How will you release yourself?

(see warning below about Grapefruit and medications)
Salt makes a grapefruit taste sweeter.
Grapefruit ripen completely on the tree. They can be left hanging on the tree for up to a year before harvesting.
Grapefruit that come to a point at the stem end have thicker skins.
It takes 12 to 15 grapefruit to make 1 gallon of juice.
Eat half of a grapefruit in the morning along with your cereal. Take small cans of grapefruit juice with you for lunch instead of soda. Include peeled segments in your salads, or eat just plain with a dash of cinnamon.
Grapefruit is available all year, with most abundant supplies from January through May. While Florida is the major source of fresh grapefruit, there also is substantial production in Texas, California, and Arizona. Several varieties are marketed, but the principal distinction at retail is between those which are "seedless" (having few or no seeds) and the "seeded" type. Another distinction is color of flesh. Pink- or red-fleshed fruit is most common, but white-fleshed varieties are also available.
Grapefruit is picked "tree ripe" and is ready to eat when you buy it in the store.
Look for: Firm fruits, heavy for their size, are usually the best eating. Thin-skinned fruits have more juice than coarse-skinned ones. If a grapefruit is pointed at the stem end, it is likely to be thick-skinned. Rough, ridged, or wrinkled skin can also be an indication of thick skin, pulpiness, and lack of juice.
Grapefruit often have skin defects such as scale, scars, thorn scratches, or discoloration. This usually does not affect how the fruit tastes.
Avoid: Soft, water-soaked areas, lack of bright color, and soft, tender peel that breaks easily with finger pressure are symptoms of decay.

WARNING! If YOU DRINK GRAPEFRUIT JUICE AND TAKE MEDICATIONS READ THIS:
A cold glass of grapefruit juice is part of the morning routine for a lot of people. What you may not realize, however, is that this same juice might interact with drugs you are taking. The interaction between grapefruit and some medications was discovered by accident when researchers were looking for an interaction between a particular blood pressure medicine and alcohol. Grapefruit juice was used as a vehicle to mask the taste of the alcohol. While the alcohol did not affect the amount of the drug circulating in the body, the grapefruit juice greatly increased the levels of the medication.
Some medications which may be affected by grapefruit juice include: midazolam (Versed®), cyclosporin (Sandimmune®, Neoral®), lovastatin (Mevacor®), simvastatin (Zocor®), ®), pravastatin (Pravachol®), and Thyroid medications.
Certain prescription antihistamines, such as Astemizole which is in Hismanal® and terfenadine which is in Seldane® and Seldane-D®, could also be affected by grapefruit juice. With these particular medications, increased drug levels could be associated with arrhythmias which could be fatal.
If you are taking a medication that should not be taken with one of these drugs, Erythromycin, itraconazole (Sporanox®), ketoconazole (Nizoral®), mibefradil or (Posicor®), the safest course of action is to assume that it would interact with grapefruit juice. An example of this is cisapride (Propulsid®), which is used to treat certain gastrointestinal problems.
If you drink grapefruit juice regularly, it would be a good idea to inquire about its possible interaction with any medications you may be taking or any new drugs that are added. Some sources recommend not drinking grapefruit juice within 2 hours before and 5 hours after a drug that may interact with it. A safer approach would be to substitute another citrus juice, such as orange juice, which has the same vitamins but has not demonstrated the drug interactions.
Remember that eating grapefruit or taking grapefruit supplements may also interact with the same medications. Some drinks that are flavored with fruit juice could be flavored with grapefruit juice. Check the label, if you are not sure.

Hydrangea aspera var.robusta
This lush, large hydrangea is so different than the normal macrophylla or mop head type. The bold, velvety foliage is an excellent foil for the lace cap flowers in late summer. The centre is a crowd of tiny blue, fertile flowers surrounded by a ring of white ray florets.
A stunning Asiatic plant and a must for any collection.

Junior Paulo admits that the green machine owe their home fans a win after their fantastic run of form away from home.
The Raiders return home to face a Panthers side who have won their past six games. The green machine have won their past three with all of them coming away from home.
"It's awesome to be back at home, the atmosphere that we have created the past few weeks by winning should bring out a great crowd for Sunday," Paulo said.
"We're hoping to put on a good performance for our fans, we definitely owe them, it's going to be a tough game and we'll be focused on getting the win."

"The up-to-date research and information now available makes it clear that the present practices can no longer be justified and the custody court system must create the necessary reforms to protect the safety of children and protective mothers in domestic violence custody cases. This article will discuss ten reasons we know the custody court system is broken and must be reformed."
Parental Alienation
If there is one symbol of misogyny and patriarchy within family law it must be the use of the concept of parental alienation.
Parental alienation epitomises how the patriarchal legal system has viewed women within our western civilisation.
It views women as vindictive liars – out to destroy men and fatherhood. It deems women as pathological – not the norm; not male.
And the intended result is to negate and trivialise male abuse of women and children. It denies and minimises the impact and severity of domestic violence and child abuse.
In basic terms, parental alienation takes the position that when a mother raises concerns about child abuse and domestic violence following separation – in a bid to protect her children from exposure to further abuse – that her allegations are likely to be false. That her motivations include revenge and vindictiveness against her ex-partner.
And most importantly it is seen as an effort to deny men/fathers the inalienable right to their children.
It is about male ownership and control.
The parental alienation syndrome was originally developed by Richard Gardner (1931-2003). It was based solely on his own (biased) clinical experience with little objective basis and lacks any empirical basis.
Gardner also had bizarre beliefs about sexuality. He is quoted as stating that:
"adult-child sex need not be intrinsically harmful to children."
Parental alienation syndrome is grounded in misogynistic views and reflects a mother-blaming ideology.
What we do know – and there is empirical evidence – is that alienation is a pattern of control used by male abusers in domestic violence and child sexual abuse.
The use of denigration of mothers is part of the pattern of both child sexual abuse and domestic violence.
And then when the mother separates from the abuser, perpetrators of domestic violence use custody litigation as a form of ongoing harassment and abuse of mother.
Alienation theory and its continued use reflect historical and societal denial of the extent of male violence within the family.
I would highly recommend Liz Library – lots of useful information about child custody, family law and parental alienation.
Other websites: Women's Safety After Separation
And another useful book which examines how perpetrators use of controlling tactics:

Reporter's fate may jolt US-Pakistan antiterror alliance
As Musharraf wraps up Washington visit, a kidnapping suspect gives new testimony about reporter Daniel Pearl.
Just a day after saying that kidnapped reporter Daniel Pearl was alive, chief kidnapping suspect Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh told a crowded courtroom that he believed the Wall Street Journal correspondent was dead.
It was just the latest jolt in the emotional rollercoaster of this 25-day case, and appeared to be aimed at discrediting Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf, who has become a key ally for America's war on terrorism.
Speaking in the antiterrorism court in Karachi, Mr. Sheikh told the judge, "Our country should not be catering to the needs of America." Sheikh also confessed to kidnapping Mr. Pearl, but said, "As far as I understand, he is dead."
Pakistani police say they believe Sheikh is "playing games" with investigators, and they will continue to assume that Pearl is still alive. Pearl disappeared in the turbulent port city of Karachi on Jan. 23, while reporting a story on links between Islamic militant groups and the foiled British shoe bomber Richard Reid.
Sheikh's latest revelation couldn't have come at a worse time for President Musharraf, who wound up a three-day visit to Washington on Thursday. During his trip, Musharraf used his new credentials as a key ally in America's war on terrorism to appeal for relief for Pakistan's $3 billion debt, along with funding for military and domestic programs. Yet the kidnapping of Pearl has presented a challenge to Musharraf's promise to rein in terrorist groups on Pakistani soil.
"This guy is trying to use a courtroom to send a message across the news media," says Rifaat Hussein, a political scientist at Quaid-I-Azam University in Islamabad. "But one should not be under the impression that Musharraf has lost control of the state apparatus. On the contrary, the state apparatus has gone out of its way to bring the kidnappers to the book. If anything it suggests something about the effectiveness of the apparatus."
US officials have been quick to praise the Musharraf government for its continued cooperation in tracking down militant groups linked to Al Qaeda.
In return, Musharraf has won President Bush's assurance that the US would not be "walking away from Pakistan" as it had in the early 1990s, as Soviet troops withdrew from Afghanistan. Mr. Bush even buoyed Pakistan's hopes of resolving its 54-year dispute with India over the state of Jammu and Kashmir.
Even so, it is clear that not all members of Pakistani law enforcement or intelligence agencies are fully behind Musharraf's pro-American policies. Police sources say that among other accused kidnappers awaiting prosecution are a Pakistani police constable and two retired members of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency. But Tasneem Noorani, a spokesman for Pakistan's Interior Ministry, denied any linkage between the ISI and the kidnappers.
The possible involvement of Pakistan's ultrasecret ISI, in particular, raises concerns here and in Washington. The ISI once maintained close contact with and provided logistical support for the Kashmiri militant that have been waging a 13-year insurgency in the Indian state of Kashmir. These groups include Harkat ul Mujahideen and Jaish-e-Muhammad, which trained at Al Qaeda-run camps in Afghanistan. As a member of Harkat ul Mujahideen, Sheikh was arrested for kidnapping foreign tourists in Kashmir in 1994. Officially, ISI severed its ties to these groups in January, and the groups themselves have been shut down.
Yet while a few rogue ISI agents may continue to cooperate with militant groups, most Pakistani observers say there are no signs of a full-scale rebellion within military or intelligence ranks.
"We are talking about three people who may be involved, we don't know," says Dr. Hussain. "It is always possible for someone to turn mercenary for a $100, given how low a police constable's salary is."
For now, Pakistani police say they will continue to question Sheikh in Karachi, saying he's "a hard nut to crack." And they may continue to pressure Sheikh's family as well. Asked why he had turned himself in to police in the eastern city of Lahore on Tuesday, Sheikh said, "I gave myself in to save my family and friends."
Pearl's pregnant wife Marianne, and his employer, The Wall Street Journal, say they remain confident that Pearl is still alive and that he will be found.
"We continue to remain hopeful," said Steven Goldstein, spokesman for Dow Jones & Co., the owner of the Wall Street Journal. "We remain confident that Danny is still alive."

Anker PowerCore 10000 Portable Charger ($18) | Amazon | Promo code SND22GN6
Steaming your clothes might not get them as crisp as ironing, but it does a decent enough job in a fraction of the time, and for $15, why not? [Pure Enrichment PureSteam Fabric Steamer, $15 with code STEAMR15]
I know coffee pods aren't everyone's cup of…coffee, but if you buy a $10 sample pack from Amazon today, you'll get a $10 credit towards your next coffee purchase. [Buy a $10 coffee pod sample, get $10 towards your next coffee order]

I used to chop garlic by hand, and I think deep down, I was hoping I'd cut my finger off just so I'd have an excuse to stop. That all changed when I bought a garlic press, which smashes a clove with just one squeeze, and does a far better job of it than I could ever do with a knife. [X-Chef Premium Stainless Steel Garlic Press, $7 with code 5VBXWVGS]

You can get cheap Lightning cables just about anywhere, but if only the best will do, you should give Anker's PowerLine models a look.
These cables are built with kevlar fiber and feature reinforced stress points, which means they can last 5 times longer than typical cables. I own a couple of these, and while I can't yet speak to how long long they actually last, I can say that they just feel extremely well made. Weighty, solid, premium. In fact, I just bought three more to replace my most used & abused Lightning cables on my night stand and in my car.
Today on Amazon, you can buy three for $22, which averages out to about the regular price you'd expect to pay for a standard third party Lightning cable. With a near-perfect 4.8 star review average, I'd say they're worth every penny.
[3x Anker PowerLine Lightning Cables, add three to cart and use code OC4PW6QE. White and Space Grey only]
This PS4 deal isn't really a discount; you'll actually pay $20 more than you would for a standard console bundle, but in return, you'll start your library off with Star Wars Battlefront, The Uncharted Collection, and Call of Duty: Black Ops III. [PS4 Battlefront Bundle + Uncharted Collection + Black Ops III, $370]
Roku streaming boxes are some of the most popular items we've ever listed, and their most miniature model is back down to within a few bucks of the best price we've ever seen today, if you don't mind buying a refurb. [Refurb Roku Streaming Stick, $30]

Plague outbreak kills 40 in Madagascar: WHO
An outbreak of plague has killed 40 people in Madagascar, the World Health Organization said, warning that the disease could spread rapidly in the country's densely populated capital Antananarivo.
The first victim was identified on August 31 in a district to the west of the capital, and died three days later, the UN health agency said in a statement Friday.
By mid-November, some 119 plague cases had been confirmed, with two percent of them of the pneumonic strain—one of the deadliest infectious diseases with a very high mortality rate.
Plague mostly affects rats and is spread by fleas, but humans can also contract the disease if they are bitten by an infected flea.
The situation in Madagascar is all the more worrying because of a high level of resistance to insecticides targeting fleas, the UN health agency said.
There have been three plague pandemics since the Middle Ages, inflicting an estimated death toll of 200 million people. In the 14th century, the disease wiped out an estimated third of Europe's population.
Modern sanitation and the advent of antibiotics have mistakenly led many to believe that the plague is a disease of the past.
In fact, a number of people, albeit relatively small, die from the disease in poorer countries each year and doctors are worried at the rise of several antibiotic-resistant strains of the bacterium.

My work in information technology had started before Internet was introduced to Egypt in the early 90's and it was the foundation of my Internet expertise. I started working in IT – while I was still a university student – in computer hardware sales and support (Sedra Computers) and later founded my own company (Alamia Computer Service) with a partner and extended its services to include networking and programming. When internet access started in Egypt in 1993 I was one of the first few 1000's in the country to have access to Internet via IDSC / RITSEC. From the mid 90's to the end of 90's I started working professionally in Internet related services including hosting and web-design. In 2001 I launched CyberCairo Network as one of the first Arabic web services provider in the region offering full Internet solutions and services including Internet access via inTouch and hosting services via Doteasy and in-house web-design and programming as CyberCairo Network.
Starting in 2003 I focused on content management systems and published one of the first online news portals in Arabic powered by an in-house tailored CMS written in PHP programming language and backed by MySQL databases. With the fast development of internet programming and standards, I got involved with the concept of open source and became in favor of it. In 2004 I started using the ultra easy WordPress system and realized its potential not only as a blogging system but also as a simple CMS. I started customizing and using WP as simple CMS for small websites for several years. However, the overall simplicity of WP made it not suitable for more complex projects and therefore I have been extensively testing and reviewing numerous CMSs as to stay updated with which system is suitable for what kind of project.
As a freelance consultant and online publisher I offer the following services:
Conceptual consultancy
- Concept brainstorming
- Market research
- Ontological analysis for web content
Hosting service
- Custom-tailored shared hosting
- VPSs (Virtual Private Servers)
- Dedicated manged servers

The CEO of the Success Academy charter schools in New York City, Eva Moskowitz, has recently discussed her involvement in the development of the schools and the motivation that led to this development. As a former member of the Upper East Side city council, Eva Moskowitz had witnessed several failed attempts to revitalize the traditional public school model. After vocalizing her frustration with these attempts, Moskowitz launched the first of several charter schools in the tri-state area. This first set of schools were initially called the Harlem Success Academy, but the name was changed following an attempt by New York's governor to put an end to federal funding of the institution. Bill de Blasio, the governor at the time of Success Academy's launch, enacted new laws that barred charter schools from receiving federal funding and operating in public school facilities. During Success Academy's first year of operation, the school was held on the campus of other New York public schools. This presented a major problem to Eva Moskowitz and other leaders of Success Academy.
Although the legislation that barred Success Academy from receiving federal funds was quickly overturned, Eva Moskowitz and the board of directors at Success Academy knew that the school would need to begin to operate in privately owned facilities to avoid future difficulties. After purchasing new facilities, Success Academy received an unprecedented amount of applications from New York City residents seeking admission for their children. To date, Success Academy has one of the largest enrollment numbers of any charter school in the United States. Eva Moskowitz stated that her original intention of developing this charter school system was to serve underprivileged students in and around New York City. The executive has also stated that she could not have foreseen the extraordinarily positive impact that Success Academy would have on the surrounding community.
