Detailed patterns in glass and silver come alive through the puzzle of imagery mirrored, reflecting a world just outside the painting's edge. The paintings draw the viewer in, closer still to soak in the details of reflected droplets on a peach. Then the eye travels beyond, skyward, reflected blue in the sea of rose tints.
Silver is a primary focus in many of my still life paintings. Detailed patterns in silver come alive through the puzzle of imagery mirrored, reflecting a world just outside the painting's edge. The paintings draw the viewer in, closer still to soak in the details of reflected droplets on a peach. Then the eye travels beyond, skyward, reflected blue in the sea of rose tints.
More vintage fabrics set off the hydrangeas and pears.
A hedonist setting. The french lilacs were cut from a neighbor's tremendous lilac bushes (with permission, of course!) Butterfly embroidered satin drape is not from my vintage fabrics collection.
Tiny silver teapot languishes in a bed of brilliant gerbera daisies.

A dash of purple sets off the hydrangeas in this bouquet and joins the deep hues in the swirling scarf. Stripes create energy and movement.
Feeling a call to nature by combining the aspects of my indoor settings to the great outdoors. This set up occurred naturally as well - a bit of wind lifted the ribbon onto a branch frozen in ice. The sky, a brilliant blue, is reflected in the ice.
Whitest of white lilies set on a dramatic background. The vintage fabric was discovered with a trunk of old vintage fabrics purchased in the 40's at a southern CT fabric shop. Some of the fabrics still had the price tag on them. The colors and feel of the cloth was special and kept in great shape through years of storage.
A banner year for hydrangeas, producing intense colors. More vintage fabric to offset the brilliant hues and reflective silver.
Tulips from Holland, care of my husband, Dave. The brilliant hues couldn't pass without honoring them in watercolor.
Both flowers grown in my garden - the tulip bulbs came directly from Amsterdam during my husband's business trip there years ago. Combined with my grandmother Gladys's berry spoon.
Satin flows like water next to the succulents in the rock garden.
Shining silver reflects the sky and surroundings as the creamy peony petals soak in the sunlight.
Available in print.
Red Roses combined with silver and flow blue pottery. My berry spoon has a recurring role in my set ups. I received red roses as an anniversary present from my husband and they were too beautiful, too perfect not to capture on paper.
Tulips and soft turquoise bottles in watercolor. Soothing!
My great find at an estate sale was a trunk of vintage satins and embroidered fabrics that were originally purchased in the 40s at an old 5 & 10 in Bridgeport, CT. As the story went, the woman who bought the fabrics loved the colors and feel of them, would purchase 2 yards and store them away. Many of the fabrics still held the stapled price tags, with total yardage cost set at 50 cents. I've since used so many of the samples in my still life paintings, donating others to the local community theater seamstress for use in plays.
This fabric became one of my favorites, showcasing gold threaded embroidered embellishments on turquoise. The sheen is lower than traditional satin, more subtle. It created a lovely backdrop for the startling white Casa Blancas and apricot tulips.
Crabapple blossoms add to the party atmosphere

I always loved the pastel-hued Hungarian goblets from my aunt's collection of glassware. This one has a hint of peach in the bowl. A goblet resting in a bed of hyacinth blossoms.
The pom pom flowers of a cherry tree in my hometown are always spectacular. The branch stems that are so much a part of the lovely bounty each spring are showcased in the glass vas.e

Animals speak to us with their eyes. So much can be read about our pets through their expressions. Steady, attentive gaze, lowered lids, and softened ears tell us that our pet is content in our presence. A turn of the head, relaxed muzzle, perked whiskers - these, and more, are 'tells' of personality.
But it is in the eyes where I find the guidance for the painting to reveal that one individual, unique being.
Pricing starts at $80 for a small 6x6 portrait. Please contact me for additional pricing and specifications.
With each portrait, I donate 15% of my commission to an animal charity of your choosing.
That look when she's caught red-handed on the couch (or bed)
How can anyone resist a big old dog that can drape herself over the sofa like this girl? She lost one of her great long limbs to bone cancer, and her prognosis at the time of the painting was not good. This portrait was a gift to immortalize the gentle soul that embodied this beautiful creature. She passed away shortly after this painting was presented to her family.
An abused boy who found unconditional and unlimited love in his foster home family. Sadly, due to poor health, Cupid did not live long enough to share his sweetness with a forever family - but his time with his foster mom helped restore his faith in humanity and the kindness humans can bring. He passed over the rainbow bridge knowing he was greatly loved, and that makes all the difference in the world.
Dixie's owner, Ron, told me she was a truly exceptional cat, and his great love for her was evident in her gaze. I liked this pose because it looks like how I envisioned her as she sat in contentment in the presence of the man she was devoted to. Everything I needed to know about her was in that gaze. I can almost hear her purring.....
Taylor's 'partner in crime' in Montana. Lucy is a sweet girl cow dog/lab mix with glossy fur and a jaunty color, but the eyes speak to her gentle demeanor, as well as the soft fold of her ears.
Calico cats are the most fun to paint, but the eyes have it.
Hope and Karma. Two great buddies.
Green-eyed beauty.
Once a feral, his forever family allowed him to be who he was (mostly a free bird), but with a place to land and be loved when he needed it.
A local horse farm brings the sheltered horses to the field in the morning to stretch their legs. There's such beauty in the musculature of their limbs and the fluid flow of their manes and tails.
Caught this boy grazing in his field one day when I happened by....
Small paintings are jewels.
A study of my girl.
Montana is Taylor's home and it suits him. He's cow dog with brilliant markings, gorgeous eyes.
Taylor is a blue heeler with ears and eyes that speak to his keen attention. Simply a beautiful dog. His owner's husband took one look at Taylor and suggested he's a cookie stealer. He does look like he has a bit of mischief in his personality.
A gentle, sweet-tempered horse used for helping horse lovers with physical disabilities.
Great Pyrenees sisters, Brie and Bella. Nothing like a challenge of white dogs for my watercolors! These two girls' reference photo was taken as a longshot with most of the details fuzzed out. Being detail-oriented, I needed to take a number of shots to get more details of the girls faces - eye color, expressions, etc are so key in creating my portraits. And then the white fur!
A lot of wiry fur going on here, but tucked inside are the jewel brown eyes.
This sweet thing was fostered from a sad hoarding situation and is currently settling into her forever home. She's shy and has a hard time trusting humans, but she knows she's finally loved and safe.
Puffy, the subject of my first commissioned painting, is a rescue kitty who has been successfully adopted in her loving forever family. In this painting, I chose to focus on Puffy's full regal beauty for obvious reasons - the fact that she is a unique tortoiseshell in that her fur is a mixture of muted gray tones and soft browns, rather than the more common version of bold black and orange markings. I also chose to focus on the sheen her fur casts in certain light, giving her a subtle glow. Puffy is one of the most beautiful cats I've seen, and she is as sweet as well! Her family fell in love with her when they first spotted her as a tiny furball sitting in the palm of a hand. She brings them great joy and is a beloved member of their family.
When I first met Moose, I was visiting his family to talk about painting another cat. Moose planted himself in front of my camera and provided me with so many opportunities to photograph his handsome features that I knew he'd make a great subject! Playful, lovable, curious, adorable, stunning - this pose shows Moose in all his glory!
The story behind this beautiful cat is similar to Puffy's. He was adopted into his forever family from the Stratford Cat Project, and lives the life of beloved king!
This is Abby, a very old and very sweet chihuahua whose devoted family commissioned this portrait as a birthday present for her favorite human. I enjoyed poring over the photos that were given to me to create this portrait - Abby as a puppy, as an old girl, and one where she is dwarfed in the lap of her owner, the son of the woman who commissioned this painting.
Combining two different poses together into one portrait was the challenge with "Sasha and Minque". We loved the pose of Minque with her paws crossed, but Sasha wasn't in that photo, so I combined two photos of Sasha - as a kitten looking right at the camera, and a more recent pose that had her eyes cast downward, looking out of the frame. My goal was to mature Sasha's facial features in keeping with how she looks today, paying special attention to her eyes. The depth of color from kittenhood to maturity is striking, plus she needed an older cat's sage and wisdom. Believe it or not, there is a definite difference through the eyes as they mature that involves not only the color of the iris.
Although I didn't get a chance to meet these two gorgeous cats (as the portrait is to be a surprise gift for Christmas), the provided photos allowed me to get a sense of the bond Sasha and Minque share, as well as reference for their glorious beauty.
The family of these two beauties were the winners of the STARS volunteer group and Animal Control Shelter auction this past fall. The challenge was getting the painting created in a week to make it in time for Christmas (long story on the delay!), but the end result captured the sweetness of this duo.
A very shy rescue from a hoarding situation. She doesn't warm up easily to humans, and watches silently with those incredible green eyes from afar. I suspect she has a bit of Maine Coon in her judging from her beautiful coat and the longest whiskers.
Hard to resist this face.....
Now passed over the rainbow bridge, Bear was a Newfie/Lab mix, that loved to swim. He was the epitome of calm.
One of five beautiful dogs belonging to my friend, Dave. Echo is a very sweet, extremely alert, an incurable counter surfer.
One of five dogs belonging to my friend, Dave, Ruby is the youngest, an energizer bunny, she pesters other pets constantly when not in someone's lap>
Baldwin - a gray and white fluff of a cat with brilliant green eyes - passed away last year and Karin, director of the Stratford Cat Project, still mourns her lost friend. Karin dedicates her life to rescuing abandoned cats and kittens. She founded a group that fosters cats, holds fundraisers to pay for their care, and organizes an army of volunteers throughout the area to work in a myriad of ways ensuring that each cat and kitten has a safe haven or is given the opportunity of finding their forever home.
Henry's family won the S.T.A.R.S. raffle for a portrait, with proceeds going to the benefit the Stratford Animal Shelter volunteer program for animal rescues and adoptions.
Painted on her favorite blue blanket.
Another rescue kitten. I never found out his name, but his curiosity and openness comes through in this face.
A study in horses. The handsome black friesian gets nuzzled by the chestnut.
Found this timid boy at a horse rescue organization. His gorgeous blues eyes shared a wariness for humans that breaks your heart. Fortunately, he was rescued and living a warm, sheltered life with plenty of human kindness.
Look closely and you'll see a wing around his brother. The look over the shoulder suggests a 'mind your business' stance.
Wne Mne is a miniature horse, and not a shetland pony as I first thought when I saw her tiny butterball figure. She waddles as much as walks on short but sturdy little legs. Where you see Mne, you'll see Bill close at hand. The two have been inseparable since Bill first landed at the shelter. Companionable, the two forage the grounds together in search of bits of barley and hay (although neither look to be hurting for sustenance!). Both Wne Mne and Crooked Bill are lifers at Live and Let Live farm, symbols of the farm's goal to provide a lasting safe harbor for these animals. Bill came to the farm injured or deformed at birth, his bill split in several places and splayed in all directions. One common theory for his condition is that he may have flown into a window, but my own sense tells me he was born this way. Regardless of his disfigurement, Bill gets along quite well and manages to eat and drink unfettered by his condition, thanks to his creative bit of tongue. In the winter, a well-worn path along the perimeter of the various corrals shows the meandering hoof and web-footprints of the two ambassadors of the farm as they make their daily visits around their home.
Here is Blue again. He is a gorgeous western paint, but the eyes were too fetching to ignore.
Bailey and Nikki are the GSW duo that belong to our great friends here in NH. Watching these two run is a beautiful example of athleticism and gorgeous form of this breed.
Ozzie is an Australian sheepdog belonging to my friend, Dave. There's an incredible amount of information in this pup's face that I wanted to capture, from his gorgeous markings and eye color, to the quiet, contemplative aura his expression suggests. Dave has several dogs and at the time I photographed them for reference shots, Ozzie was the one that sat still and allowed me to take a number of absolutely beautiful studies of his wonderful face. He seems to be studying me....
How hard is it to lose a best friend? Anyone who has shared their life with a pet knows the intense pain of losing these companions. Their lives are way too short in comparison to our own.
Molly was 14 when she left the world. She was an American Staffordshire - an impressive and noble breed. She was a sweet and devoted companion to her family, and very dear to their hearts. A look into those expressive brown eyes reveals a soft-heart and unconditional love for her people. Molly's cocked ear revealed to me a pup who was fully aware of what was going on around her, even as she set her devoted gaze on her human. I love ears like this on a dog; the kind that fold back like velvety folded wings on the dog's head. It's a sign of repose.... and yet, that perked ear indicates nothing's getting by her.
Beautiful, beautiful girl. In loving memory of Molly.
Tortoiseshells are beauties, but hard to capture in watercolor (or any other medium). There's so much splotchy dappling going on there, and no pattern to speak of like the more orderly looking tabby - instead, just chaos of fur color explosion.
The elder of the five dogs belonging to my friend, Dave, Foster is the pack alpha, cranky, watches TV so he can bark at any and all animals that appear.
A rescued baby possum at the Wildlife sanctuary in Ridgefield, CT. Opossums are the most misunderstood of the night critters. They are perceived as dirty and dumb, when actually they are the complete opposite.
Freja's coat is an array of gray-black fur with a striking white bib. Mixed in with the grays and black is a bit of brown that suggested brindle coloring. Her demeanor is gentle and alert, which is reflected in her soft eyes the color of Sedona rock.
These two sleek girls are Poppy and Petunia. Fairly new additions to my brother and his wife, Nancy's household.
Indoor girls, Poppy and Toonie enjoy a good life with big windows showcasing birdfeeder activities all day. They also have outdoor cousins that come to the yard and back porch every day. Ron and Nancy care for several feral cats that live in the area - ensuring medical treatment when needed and protective space from the elements.
Sweetie Pie and Ghostwriter belong to my friend, Mary Beth. My first subjects as an artist at age four was my grandfather's horse, Trigger. The beautiful, powerful lines and curves of a horse make them one of my all-time favorite living subjects. The sweet bond between mother and son in this painting was captured in a photo Mary Beth's daughter, Tess took of the day-old colt. Eliminating the original photo's busy background, and focusing the painting on the sweet touch of noses, rich chestnut tones in Sweetie's fur and the contrast of bridle hues help make this an especially striking piece.
Mac live outside of Chicago next door to my brother and his wife, Nancy. He and his mom is Wendy enjoy life in the midwest during the summer months, and the south in the winter. This boy has it pretty nice!
Two gorgeous brothers from Florida. I combined poses and separate reference shots to bring these two together in one painting. The trick was to ensure lighting was similar and the luminous quality in their matching pool-green eyes brought them together in a natural pose. Each reference photo displayed a demeanor of peace that emanated from both boys. Their eyes never changed - relaxed, dozy, contented. The painting's palette purposely reflects that soft peace.

18. 12. 2006 - ČSA employees should stabilise at 5,080 next year
Prague, 18 December 2006
Czech Airlines (ČSA) has managed to reduce those personnel costs that it can directly influence. In 2007, a reduction in the number of employees and refining its organisational structure will bring savings of one hundred million crowns but costs will rise because of the collective agreements that have already been signed and the new Labour Code amendment.
Throughout 2006, ČSA has been well below its plan of 5,600 employees because the management has abolished nearly a hundred unfilled positions. In August, some employees took advantage of ČSA's offer under the OK Agreement programme, by which 142 employees could leave by agreement. At the end of 2006, ČSA will employ nearly 5,300 people; by the end of Q1 2007, it will shed approximately another 200 employees. Therefore the number of employees should stabilise around 5,080, with approximately 100 employees per aircraft, which is comparable to similar airlines.
Cutting operating costs and refining the organisational structure by reducing the number of employees does not, in any way, negatively affect the safety and efficiency of ČSA's operation. Only redundant positions are being eliminated, especially in administration, i.e., outside the operating units. Reducing the number of employees is one of the many steps which ČSA's management is taking to implement the three-year restructuring plan and transform ČSA into a competitive company with good long-term prospects.
The restructuring has also reduced the number of management positions while cutting operating costs and refining the organisational structure. The goal is approximately 120 less higher and lower managers per 5,080 employees. This will involve savings of many millions of crowns for ČSA, not only in wages, but also other, related costs (company cars, office space, etc.).
ČSA will achieve its employee reduction goals by the end of Q1 2007 and so the management will comply with the plan to slim down ČSA by approximately 10 to 20 per cent. Including 2006 and the end of the 1st quarter of 2007, this will mean a reduction of approximately 500 positions, i.e. 10 per cent. ČSA will lose another 10 per cent of its employees if the Divestment project is implemented. These people, however, will not lose their jobs. A condition of the sale is that the obligations of Cargo terminal and Catering are taken over by the purchaser, which includes employment relation obligations. Divestment is not a way to reduce the number of employees; it is a way for ČSA to secure ready funds during the transient period of restructuring without the company being forced to resort to severe cuts in its main line of business.

McLaren's team principal Martin Whitmarsh lauded Lewis Hamilton for his second-place finish behind Seb Vettel in South Korea. "Lewis's drive was inspirational," he said. "He may be downplaying it, because he's a perfectionist and he wanted to win, but to withstand such enormous pressure, for lap after lap, from a faster car, was a drive worthy of the great champions."
After finishing 12sec adrift of Vettel and four-tenths of a second ahead of the German's Red Bull team-mate Mark Webber, Hamilton said: "It was one of my strongest races this season. There was so much pressure it would've been easy to make a mistake."Reuse content

We are sad to learn we have lost one of our own.
Last Sunday, Rijad Pasagic passed away during basketball practice after suffering a cardiac episode. He was only 17.
Rijad was not a contributor to the blog. His contribution to our group was a unique sense of humor as well as a perspective that spoke to his circumstances as an irreligious young man among a very Muslim community in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Rijad shared with us his dreams of overcoming the squalor of his upbringing and immigrating to America. A large man, he intended to become a professional fighter or trainer. As bright as he was athletic, there is no doubt he would have accomplished these things.
Even at so young an age, Rijad made an impression on people worldwide, on many of us here at TRS.
You will be missed.

For the record, Earth Centre was conceived in 1990 but not as a green theme park; Future Systems did not design the Ark, to which she refers, until mid-1995; it has never contained a rainforest (and what a ludicrous idea that it should); phase 2 has not "been axed" - construction work will begin on 4 January; the canopy of photo-voltaic cells is indeed to be built in phase 2; phase 3 - the Ark which she seems to admire as architecture only, - is the subject of a major funding plan that is currently in train.
Finally, in case your readers got entirely the wrong impression, Earth Centre was voted Tourism Project of the Year by the British Guild of Travel Writers. It has reclaimed 400 acres of badly damaged coal mine and created beautiful gardens and interesting educational demonstrations and exhibitions. As a small charity we have raised large sums of matching funding and embarked upon the truly millennial task of designing, funding and building a major new sustainable development in and for Britain.
A lot of words will be spoken over the next few days about the significance of this moment in history. One thought I should like to add to the cacophony is that with a further dramatic increase in world population by the middle of the next century and compound economic growth, global society may need to be at least 10 times more efficient in our use of resources than we are today. Earth Centre is about facing up to that challenge and trying to inspire people and involve them in what is unquestionably the key issue of our age. In a few years, as the project matures and as new features are added, we are confident that we can make a bold and unique contribution to the advancement of sustainability that brings widespread benefits to all.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
The licensing and title clerk at a car dealer incorrectly filed out the title to the car we bought. She wrote down the mileage incorrectly, by writing a 4 when it should have been a 6. She attempted to fix her mistake, but you can clearly tell that there is a 4 there. Now we can not title and register the car until the dealership registers it first because of this mistake. The lady who helped me at the registration office said that the mistake is consider as odometer fraud. Can we sue the dealer for the huge inconvenience they have caused us by incorrectly filling out the mileage on the title?
They also screwed up our address, after we had corrected them, so all our paperwork states the wrong address. They sent us an affidavit of correction but we are still annoyed by their incompetence.The car was bought at a dealer in Illinois. Because of their error we will be hit with a penalty fee for not registering the car within 30 days of the purchase date. A fee that is unknown at this time because it's based off how much later than the 30 days it takes us to register the car.
You can sue anyone for anything. The question is, will you win the lawsuit? Here it seems unlikely. You would need to quantify your damages, and it would be up to you to prove your case. Being annoyed by incompetence is not generally a valid claim for money damages. Assuming the amount is less than $5,000, you could sue in small claims. You would need to pay the filing fee of $85 and a fee to serve the documents on the defendant, which ranges from around $20 to $50. Plan to spend a good portion of the afternoon at the courthouse for your mediation and trial. Then, IF you win, it is up to you to try collect from the defendant. If the dealer is willing to correct its mistake, that would seem to me to be the most efficient way to handle this.
By the very nature of Avvo, you have only provided limited facts and no documentation, therefore, our response to your question is treated only as a hypothetical, and as such it is merely general in nature. You should not rely on this response in taking or forgoing action in your circumstances without discussing this matter with an attorney. If we had the opportunity to ask you sufficient questions and review relevant documents so that we were satisfied we had all of the relevant facts and circumstances, our response might differ significantly. Without the opportunity to ask you questions, and review all relevant documents and memoranda, we are simply unable to provide any form of legal advice. Our response to your question does not create any attorney-client relationship between us, and we are not acting as your attorney. We reserve the right to decline representation in any case. By answering your question, we are under no obligation to answer further questions. There are very specific deadlines for filing a lawsuit, replying to a lawsuit filed against you, or taking other action in order to preserve your legal rights. You should contact an attorney immediately in order to be fully advised of your rights, and so that you are aware of those deadlines. If you fail to act within the required time frame, you might be forever barred from asserting your rights or defending your position. The attorney answering this question is licensed in Illinois and Iowa only.Ask a similar question
The dealer made sloppy errors, and you're upset because of the inconveniences that have resulted. I wouldn't advise anyone to file suit based on what you've said. So far, you haven't stated any damages suffered -- by which I mean real money damages. But if you think you've got something, contact an attorney to get a more complete analysis and advice.
DISCLAIMER: I am an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of Iowa only and not in any other state. The response I have provided is based on the limited information stated in your question or hypothetical scenario. Quite often, a more complete understanding of the facts would lead to different advice or to a broader discussion of relevant or related considerations. The answer provided does not create an attorney-client relationship between us. You should not decide to act or refrain from acting based on my response, which is an attempt to provide general information on a legal topic as presented by you. The law is subject to frequent change and varies from state to state. Also, legal matters often involve deadlines that may significantly affect your legal rights. You should always consult with an attorney in your own state who is knowledgeable in the subject matter, and you should do so as soon as possible.Ask a similar question
See additional comments, there is real money damage because of this late penalty fee.
You can sue, but it would be a waster of time and money. Better to talk with the dealership and have them rectify their mistakes. They were sloppy and made mistakes. We all do so at times
The information provided in this answer does not create an attorney-client relationship and is not considered to be legal advice.Ask a similar question
One mistake is acceptable and forgivable. Multiple mistakes is not acceptable and flat out irresponsible. Their mistake is consider as odometer fraud, last I checked that was illegal as l.
Typo.. no as 1 after illegal, I apologize.
Fraud requires scienter. Nothing in the facts you presented indicates there was any intent to defraud you.
The licensing and title clerk verbally admitted she knew she made a mistake but still sent us the title. Which is why I've questioned if we have a case or not.
Good god. Take your business to another dealer. The affidavit of correction is there for a reason. This is not a viable case.
The comments listed here are of a general nature and should not be understood to create a formal attorney-client relationship -- that is, I am not, and I cannot give you legal advice here. I am licensed in Iowa and to become your attorney, I need to understand the particular facts and circumstances of your legal question.Ask a similar question
The affidavit of correction was given for the correction of our address, it does not and can not be applied to an error on the title. If you think it can be applied to the title issue your very wrong.
Well, this comment is irrelevant, but you are correct. The Affidavit is to correct everything but the odometer/mileage issue. If I remember correctly, the DOT form says that that everything BUT the mileage can be corrected. It doesn't change that you have no damages.

MartyParty is a music producer and performer. Born and raised in South Africa and residing in Brooklyn, NY, his music runs the gambit from sexy hip hop to intense dance to dirty dubstep… sometimes pretty and soft, sometimes hard and dirty, but always emotional.
MartyParty started producing his own flavor of music in 2005 with the mission to change the monotony of electronic music by creating an entirely different electronic sound: more musical, more story telling, and more diversity in the beats. The result is a growing anthology of MartyParty music crossing over most popular genres into a rich sound he calls Purple.
MartyParty's live "Purple Opera" is a seamless voyage through an original music collection taking the audience on a the roller coaster ride of emotion and dance. Intense bass, huge beats, emotional melodies and cutting edge sound design all come together for a wild trip – unique to every performance.
Destination tomorrow: Photek's decorated past and diligent work ethic leads us here. The new music you'll hear this year is yet another chapter in a life spent overdosing on sonic nuances and boundary testing. An exultant voyage in a life that's shaped the very foundations of the sounds we love, these are sounds that he's teased at since the techno tickles of his 2000 album 'Solaris'
Take his collaboration with Switch, 'Avalanche'; a low-swung modulator, its half-step march belies the crafty subversion of a well known rave sample. Take '101'; its icy peripheries suggest the Photek we know while kidnapping the principals of classic electro and booting them effortlessly into the 23rd century. Take 'This City'; a lolloping load of filters and reverse athletics, its somnambulant sounds make it a literal house dream. Take '4 Aces', a bassline badguy, smiling a saw-toothed grin. Take the aptly titled 'No Agenda'; a timeless slice of spine-tingling progression, fluctuating between funk and arm-flinging euphoria.
Take it or leave it; from this moment on Photek has programmed a new system, the code racing mercilessly towards the main stage where an explosive live show, primed with nothing but his own material, patiently awaits.

Super-sub Glen Little climbed off the bench to help Wrexham secure a must-win victory over title rivals Mansfield Town.
In a pulsating clash Matt Green's (53) 20th goal of the season gave the Stags the advantage as they seeked a Conference record-breaking 13th straight league victory.
However, Reds skipper Dean Keates levelled with a 68th minute free-kick before Danny Wright (78) side-footed home the winner after collecting a pass from the evergreen Little, who had been on the pitch less than a minute.
In a manic finale in front of the biggest Racecourse gate of the season Wright was denied his second by the woodwork before Keates skied a shot into the kop at the end of a scything Wrexham counter-attack.
It was no more than Wrexham deserved and they now head to Woking just seven points shy of second-placed Stags and eight of leaders Kidderminster, who have played two games more.
Morrell made two attacking changes from the side that failed to hit the net against Macclesfield.
He made way for Brett Ormerod whilst the fit-again Danny Wright replaced Rob Ogleby alongside Adrian Cieslewicz">Adrian Cieslewicz in the offensive triumvirate.
After a fast-paced start Wrexham suffered an early blow when Chris Westwood - who had headed everything clear - came off injured after just 22 minutes, to be replaced by Declan Walker.
Just over five minutes later and Wrexham registered their first shot on goal. Johnny Hunt's ball from the left was chested into the path of Joe Clarke by Danny Wright but the midfielder's pile-driver rose wide of Alan Marriott's left post.
Maxwell was then off his line quick to snatch the ball off the feet of Colin Daniel after the Stags striker sprung the offside trap with three Reds defenders desperately trying to make up ground.
Five minutes before half-time the on-loan Wrexham goalkeeper showed brilliant awareness and agility to palm swat away Greg Taylor's cross, the curl on the ball taking it towards the top corner before Maxwell's intervention.
Whilst Wrexham finished the half strongly it was the visitors who turned the screw at the start of the second half, peppering Maxwell's goal with shots.
They had a headed effort disallowed for offside but Mansfield patience and pressure was soon rewarded in the 53rd minute. Luke Jones's bullet header from a corner was brilliantly saved by Maxwell but the prolific Green stabbed in the rebound from close range as Wrexham's defence froze.
And whilst Maxwell showed cat-like agility the same could not be said for his opposite number Marriott, who gift-wrapped Wrexham's equaliser.
Keates' free-kick from 30 yards took a slight-deflection which wrong-footed Marriott. However, the keeper managed to get his body behind the ball before allowing it to spill from his grasp and over the line.
It then went from the calamitous to class as Maxwell excelled yet again, beating away Adam Chapman's fierce free-kick.
Then came an inspired substitution by Morrell. Little replaced Cieslewicz and it took him less than a minute to provide a beautifully-weighted pass into Wright from the edge of the box. The striker looked up and slotted the ball into the corner with unnerving ease.
A few minutes later Wright almost bagged his second. With Mansfield's defence in disarray Keates picked out Wright in the box and his first-time curling shot crashed off the underside of the bar. Despite the ball appearing to cross the line referee Darren Handley was not interested.
Keates should have made it 3-1 in injury time as Wrexham stormed forward in numbers on the break, however the captain smashed his ball wide.
Wrexham:Maxwell; Wright, Westwood (Walker, 22), Riley, Hunt; Keates (cpt), Harris, Clarke; Cieslewicz (Little,77), Ormerod (Adebola, 66), D Wright.

American Cable Assn. President & CEO Matthew M. Polka Comments On Results Of First National EAS Test
"The national EAS test was a huge effort carried out by a public-private partnership that truly performed a great service for the American people." ACA President and CEO Matthew M. Polka
PITTSBURGH, November 10, 2011 — ACA President and CEO Matthew M. Polka issued the following statement regarding the national Emergency Alert System (EAS) test on Nov. 9 conducted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
"The decision to conduct the first national test of the Emergency Alert System on Nov. 9 was a wise one because government must have confidence that it can reach the public with life-saving information in a crisis. As many have pointed out, the EAS test produced mixed results. In many communities, the test went smoothly; in others, there were difficulties. Working with the FCC and FEMA, industry participants that encountered problems will surely strive to correct the situation as soon as possible.
"ACA is in the process of collecting data from its members and will share the results with the FCC and FEMA in due course in order to ensure that the EAS is a predictable and dependable public safety asset that will help protect property and save lives."
"Lastly, I would like to thank all the dedicated staff members at the FCC and FEMA who put in countless hours to prepare for the national EAS test. It was a huge effort carried out by a public-private partnership that truly performed a great service for the American people."

EL PASO, Texas (AP) -- UCLA head coach Jim Mora is very familiar with his team's opponent in Tuesday's Sun Bowl.
Mora saw a lot of Virginia Tech and head coach Frank Beamer as he prepared for past drafts in his former role as an NFL coach with Atlanta and Seattle.
''I had a chance to coach a lot of Virginia Tech players (in the NFL), and they're all the same: tough, disciplined, very smart football players. It goes back to Jim Druckenmiller, Mike Vick, DeAngelo Hall, Jimmy Williams. In scouting those guys, I've watched a lot of Virginia Tech football, and their teams always play hard, they always play physical and they always play with great passion. And I think that's a reflection, in my opinion, of one of the greatest coaches of all time.''
Of course, a month of preparation for Tuesday's game also helped the 17th-ranked Bruins (9-3) and the Hokies (8-4) familiarize themselves with one another.
''To have an opponent like UCLA is a real challenge,'' Beamer said. ''But that's what you like at this time of year - to play a game that means something against a quality opponent. That's what we've got, and in a great setting, a great bowl situation.''
''The reality is we're fortunate to be here,'' he said. ''With the young people that we've played and the injuries that we've had, the competition of our league . I think the ACC gets bigger and stronger every year. I think we're hanging in there pretty well so far in the bowls. I think it's just a fact of life: the ACC is getting more competitive. It's not a given that you can win eight games or nine games or 10 games.''
Five things to watch when UCLA takes on Virginia Tech in the Sun Bowl:
TRENCH WARFARE: A key matchup will be UCLA's young offensive line against the Virginia Tech defensive line. UCLA has three freshmen starting on the O-line, while Virginia Tech's defensive front four includes three seniors and a junior. ''You've got one of the top defenses in the country,'' Mora said of the Hokies. ''No. 1, we've got to block up that front, and with our young offensive line that's no easy task. We've got to try to find ways to run the football. We've got to find ways to protect our quarterback and get open against an excellent secondary.'' Beamer agreed that running the ball would be a key. ''I wouldn't want to try to line up and try to throw it against these guys every time. I think their pass rush is too good, and they get you locked up in close coverage,'' Beamer said.
UNDERDOG ROLE: UCLA is favored by seven points. That suits the Hokies just fine. ''We love being the underdog. I wish we were the underdog every game,'' Virginia Tech safety Kyshoen Jarrett said. ''It puts a chip on our shoulder. I feel great about it. We're excited to be the underdog.''
YOUNG GUNS: Young players will play key roles for both teams. Virginia Tech freshman cornerback Kendall Fuller has six interceptions and freshman CB Brandon Facyson has five. UCLA has running back-linebacker Myles Jack, who was the Pac-12 Offensive and Defensive Freshman of the Year. Jack, a linebacker, didn't get a carry on offense until the ninth game of the year, when he ran for 120 yards and a TD against Arizona. The entire country got to know him the following week, when he ran for 4 TDs against Washington. Defensively, he's fifth on the team with 70 tackles.
BARR NONE: No UCLA player earned more accolades than senior linebacker Anthony Barr. The 6-foot-4, 248-pound All-American was named first team All-Pac 12, won the 2013 Lott IMPACT award and was a finalist for the Bednarik, Butkus and Lombardi awards. He also made numerous All-American lists. Some scouts have projected Barr as a first-round pick in the 2014 draft.
BOWL REGULARS: The Hokies are making their 21st consecutive bowl appearance and the Bruins are in a postseason game for the ninth time in 11 years, although they haven't won a bowl game since 2009.

You already know you can "have it your way" when choosing a sandwich at Burger King. Now you can do the same with your soft drink.
All company-owned Burger King restaurants are installing Coca-Cola's Freestyle fountains so customers can create their own custom beverages. These drink dispensers pack in more than 120 variations—all in the same space allotted to traditional eight-valve fountains. Selections include popular brands such as Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Dasani, Barq's and Powerade, but you can also try flavors not readily available in the United States, such as Fanta Peach or Minute Maid Light Orange Lemonade.
Coca-Cola Freestyle 101
If you aren't familiar with Freestyle, here are the basics of this high-tech soda fountain.
Stocking the Ingredients: The Freestyle machine contains cartridges filled with the concentrated ingredients you need to create both sparkling and flat drinks.
Selecting a Beverage: After pushing your cup against the lever to fill it with ice, you choose a drink from the touch screen. You can select original Coca-Cola Zero or try one of seven custom flavor options, including Lemon Coke Zero, Orange Coke Zero and Raspberry Coke Zero, to make a new favorite concoction.
Creating the Drink: The ingredients mix with water and sweetener as it dispenses from the machine. Syrup is no longer required to make the beverages.
Freestyle and Burger King
"The ability to customize your own beverages combined with the quality that Coca-Cola Freestyle delivers to our guests is a perfect addition to our most recent new menu offerings," says Steve Wiborg, president North America, Burger King Corporation. "Adding Coca-Cola Freestyle further enhances our guests' experience when they visit Burger King restaurants. We're excited to be the largest franchise system in the U.S. to roll out the fountains in all company-owned restaurants and look forward to further growing our business with Coca-Cola as our partner."
"After extensive market testing, Burger King Corporation recognizes Coca-Cola Freestyle as a perfect complement to the Burger King restaurant experience. With the nationwide expansion of Coca-Cola Freestyle, more people than ever will be able to select the ideal beverage to accompany their meals at Burger King," says Dagmar Boggs, vice president, Burger King Global Customer Team, Coca-Cola Refreshments. "Coca-Cola Freestyle offers people something they've never experienced before and helps our partners like Burger King Corporation grow both their beverage business and their total business."
Finding a Machine Near You
If you haven't tried it yet, there is likely a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine near you; they are available at more than 4,000 locations nationwide. Check out your local Burger King restaurant, or go to the Coca-Cola Freestyle website for other retail outlets. For more information, go to the Freestyle Facebook page or download the iPhone and Android game apps.
More Fun Facts About Soda Fountains
Coca-Cola Freestyle may be revolutionizing the soda fountain, but fizzy drinks have a long history in the United States. Here are just a few interesting facts about soda's history—and future.
Carbonation Origination: Dr. Joseph Priestly, a friend of Benjamin Franklin, is attributed with creating the first drinkable man-made carbonated water in 1767. The term 'soda water' wasn't coined until 1798.
The Soda Fountain/Drugstore Connection: Soda fountains gained popularity in the United States after the Civil War as community gathering places. Early soda fountains were located primarily in drugstores because the carbonated water was created by chemists and marketed as having medicinal benefits.
The Original Soda Elixir: The syrup for Coca-Cola was first created by Dr. John Pemberton, an Atlanta pharmacist, on May 8, 1886. The syrup was blended with carbonated water to create Coca-Cola.
More Options Than Ever: Today, Coca-Cola Freestyle offers 120-plus beverage selections, including more than 70 diet and low-calorie beverages and more than 90 caffeine-free drinks.
Award-Winning Design: The Freestyle machine won the2011 Good Design Award for Industrial Design given by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design, and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
