Brandon Maxwell
Brandon Maxwell is a luxury women's ready-to-wear label launched in New York in 2015. The brand was born out of the desire to make women feel beautiful, sophisticated and powerful, with timeless garments that are impeccably tailored. With a focus on craftsmanship, the entire collection is designed in New York City.
Brandon MaxwellSurrounded by immaculately dressed women from a young age, Maxwell was captivated by the women who passed through the boutique where his grandmother worked in Longview, Texas. He went on to study photography at St. Edward's University in Austin and began assisting stylist Deborah Afshani in 2009, followed by Edward Enninful, and then Nicola Formichetti in 2010. Maxwell established a styling career in 2012 acting as a fashion director to Lady Gaga and working on fashion campaigns and editorials for talented photographers such as Inez and Vinoodh, Mario Sorrenti and Mario Testino.
Inspired by the strong women Maxwell surrounds himself with, his hallmark style of sharp tailoring and sculptural details are apparent in his namesake collection. Each season the designs evolve but the muse stays the same.
The brand is worn by many iconic women, including Michelle Obama, Meghan Markle, Oprah, Blake Lively, Jane Fonda, Queen Rania of Jordan and Tiffany Haddish.
"The goal for me has always been to start a young, true American luxury brand that lives on."
Maxwell was awarded the 2019 CFDA Award for Womenswear Designer of the Year, the 2018 Woolmark New York Semifinal Prize Award, 2016 Fashion Group International Rising Star Award for Womenswear, the 2016 CFDA Swarovski Award for Womenswear, and was named a finalist for the 2016 LVMH Prize. Maxwell will act as a judge on the 2019 re-launch of Project Runway on Bravo TV.

Looking back, maybe Will Smith didn't do Isak Amanov's legacy total justice after all. He turned a mindful book (I've read it since last time I watched this) into a blockbuster - although I did enjoy it, and the topic is as relevant as ever today. Just maybe not so much regarding robots as - that which it's really all about - AI.
In the movie Will Smith plays the robot-hostile detective/cop Del Spooner, sent to uncover the truth behind Dr.Lanning (the father of all robots)'s unfortunate death, all the while a new model of robots are being introduced in the city. Something's fishy... the more he uncovers the more get on his back, until finally... well, watch the movie; you'll see. :)
The special effects stood the test of time well! Some are simple, but they're thorough too. The inconsistency with how the robots can't keep up with humans (at least one particular one) yet in robot VS robot battle fight or catch up to one another at speeds none of the humans could ever manage... let's just disregard that bit. Let's forget about the final explosion and the car chase too, as those effects were a daze, but everything else - robot design included, still looks pretty damn good.
I like the future this movie builds up, the oldskool ways of our main character, and the clash they provide. The shrink (played by Bridget Moynahan) isn't bad either, even if she comes across aggravatingly naive in expression sometimes... almost like she might be a robot herself.
And the title doesn't really match. I, Sonny, isn't it? But it was great. Not perfect but way better than I remembered it, and maybe the best movie to really solidify the AI threat yet. It's the most fundamental, yet most dangerous idea, that to save humanity humanity itself must be destroyed. Or enslaved. Or something equally nefarious, yet scarily logical.
rated 4/5: fo shizzle
This was pretty damn interesting. And yet, nobody's spoken! Be the first!

The Ultimate Guide to Lunge Progressions
Exercise progressions are important and often underutilized in the clinical and fitness setting. Changing the rep scheme and number of sets can only take us so far. In order to avoid a plateau in our rehabilitation and performance goals we need to challenge the body with different weight schemes, landing surfaces, and in different planes of motion. Today we start with the lunge, an important movement for lower body strength, coordination, and overall body function.
Our ultimate guide to lunge progressions takes you from basic static lunge holds to full body, dynamic movements. Our Ultimate Guide to Lunge Progressions provides 12 ways to progress the lunge pattern in safe and challenging ways.
1. Lunge Pulse
In lunge position with knee on the ground. Lean forward until tension is felt in front side of back leg. Now slowly pulse forward over front foot in a controlled manner, furthering stretch in front of back leg.
2. Forward Lunge
From a standing position step your right foot forward into a full lunge position. Left knee touched the ground before pressing off your right foot and return to standing position. Right knee should not go over right toe. Repeat for one minute each side.
Cues: Keep shin vertical, torso upright
3. Forward Lunge onto Unstable Surface
Creating a balance and stability challenge. Same as the forward lunge only front foot lands on an unstable surface (airex pad or BOSU ball are good examples).
4. Backward Lunge
From a standing position step your right foot backward into a full lunge position, knee touching floor. Press off your front foot to return to standing position. Front knee should not go over right toe. Knee can touch the ground but should not be resting. Repeat for one minute each side.
5. Backward Lunge of Unstable Surface
Same as backward lunge with front foot staying on unstable surface (airex or BOSU recommended)
6. Lateral Lunge
Lunge progression into a new plan of movement (coronal plane). From a standing position step your right foot to the left into a full side lunge position. Return to starting position and repeat. Continue for one minute each side.
7. Star Lunges
Integrating lunge patterns into different planes of movement. From a standing position step your right foot a finto a full forward lunge position. Return to starting position and immediately perform side lunge. Return to starting position and immediately perform backward lunge.
(Not shown: Can also lunge into 45 degree forward and backward position)
8. Forward Lunge into Backward Lunge
An advanced lunge progression. From a standing position step your right foot forward into a full lunge position. Press off your front foot and immediately move into a backward lunge. Repeat for one minute each side.
This one is burns!
9. Weighted Lunges
Holding weight in different position can provide different challenges to the lunge pattern. Barbells and sandbags in front or back rack provide a weighted challenge while holding kettlebell and dumbbells provides a core centered challenge.
10. Overhead weighted Lunges
Add a lateral core stability and balance challenge by holding dumbbell or kettlebell overhead while performing a forward or backward squat. Video demonstrates an overhead reverse (backward) lunge
11. Sandbag Rotational Lunge
Adding weight and translational movement to the lunge pattern. Perform backward lunge while bringing sandbag (or other weight) to outside of front leg. Return to starting position and repeat on other side.
12. Lunge Hops
Integrating lunge series into challenging full body exercise.
Starting in kneeling lunge position, push off front foot to 'jump' into air. While in air switch front and back legs, landing with opposition leg forward.
Improving the lunge pattern is a vital component in rehabilitating low back pain and other lower extremity issues. Not progressing too quickly to put ourselves at risk of reaggravation while providing the necessary stimulus for increased strength and better movement is the balancing act that we specialize in here at Evolve performance Healthcare.

(CNN)Carl Reiner ended up being the oldest-ever candidate for an Emmy Award in July– for his function, properly enough, appearing and telling in the HBO documentary "If You're Not in the Obit, Eat Breakfast," about individuals remaining active into their 90s and beyond.
Divvying up a 13th Emmy would be an elite issue, however if it develops, Reiner understands who to credit and blame: His nephew by marital relationship, George Shapiro, the veteran skill supervisor who produced "Seinfeld," and who recommended that Reiner deal with him on a documentary that was to be tentatively entitled "Vital After 90."
Having seen his name in the obituary of a previous co-star, Reiner offered the brand-new, significantly funnier title, continuing to speak with a host of nonagenarians, consisting of long time pals Mel Brooks, Norman Lear and Dick Van Dyke.
The documentary contemplated factors for durability, with Reiner concluding that laughter, buddies and the best partner are all high up on the list. He likewise mentioned the significance of remaining active, something he has actually done by prolifically continuing to compose books, mit 3 more presently in the works or due to be launched.
"If you get up and have a task, you survive," er erklärte.
For all the hats he's used in his long profession, von "Das Dick Van Dyke Show" to directing numerous Steve Martin motion pictures, Reiner stated he considers himself "essentially a host," somebody who can point the audience's eye in the ideal instructions.
He's still an active customer of films, brand-new and old, often gathering with Brooks to see them.
Like his kid, director Rob Reiner, Carl Reiner stays an outspoken and strong critic of President Trump, utilizing his Twitter feed to weigh in concerning politics. Previously this year he released "The Downing of Trump," put together from his tweets and those of others.
Asked if he's ever lured to ignore the Nachrichten, Reiner stated, "If you need to tune that out, you need to tune whatever out. It suggests you do not care any longer."
Reiner stated he will not be participating in the Emmys in September– "I do not take a trip well," he quipped– and sounded bemused to even remain in a position to have to. In the documentary, he concludes, "If you cannot laugh, life would be quite empty."
Based on that requirements, Emmy or no, the current turning point is a pointer of all that Reiner has actually done to guarantee that everybody's life is a little fuller.

Visions of a low carbon world
In the lead-up to the forthcoming UN Climate Conference in Paris, writer John O'Brien has gathered together 80 visions of the future from some of the world's leading environmental thinkers and influencers, among them RN's own Antony Funnell.
Contributors to John O'Brien's Visions 2100 project were asked to work from the optimistic premise that by the year 2100 planet Earth will finally be a low carbon world. They were then asked to reflect on the long journey to that goal from 2015.
The world is just: Mary Robinson, Ireland
My great-grandchildren share the world with over nine billion people; they truly share the planet. They know the reality of their interconnected dependence on their fellow human beings and therefore they respect each other and the planet.
The decisions my generation took in 2015, to set the course for transformative change for a safe world for future generations, have been realised.
So now, poverty is eradicated. Every child goes to school regardless of sex, race, religion or place of birth. Every woman enjoys equality with every man. Every household has access to energy; energy sourced from renewables that has enabled the development of nations, communities and families while protecting our planet.
In 2100, the world is just.
(Mary Robinson is a special envoy on climate change, United Nations, former president of Ireland and president of the Mary Robinson Foundation—Climate Justice)
The climate neutral world: Christiana Figueres, Germany
It is the start of the year 2100 and the fireworks shows held in megacities across the globe to ring in the New Year are still fresh in everyone's mind. There is much speculation as to what the next century may bring. Many of those looking forward to a new century spent the weeks leading up to the new year reflecting on the last century—how we got where we are.
In almost every case progress could be traced back to the year 2015, when all governments of the world shed old divides and agreed to a long-term goal of climate-neutral growth. In that pursuit they agreed to an unprecedented level of collaboration, which stabilised a disrupted climate system that had threatened to erase prior gains and put a brake on further social and economic development around the world. In the years following 2015, global emissions peaked and deep decarbonisation of the world economy was achieved as countries fulfilled commitments to move towards clean energy and sustainable development. This move to solar and wind energy was enabled by technology that drove demand—electric vehicles, energy independent buildings, intelligent micro-grids, improved electricity storage, smart agriculture and highly efficient transport systems.
Financing these advances sparked a virtuous cycle of ingenuity and innovation, resulting in global development that kept people and planet healthy and the economy prosperous even as the population surged past nine billion. Certainly, challenges arose from our many years of carbon intense growth, but the spirit of cooperation and collaboration that emerged helped countries, cities, businesses and individuals work together to overcome these challenges, adapt to our new climate and meet our global sustainable development goals.
A new century presents new opportunity and because governments enacted climate-safe development that will serve for generations, opportunity from 2100 forward is unimaginably vast and incredibly varied.
(Christiana Figueres is executive secretary, UN Framework Convention on Climate Change)
By the skin of our teeth: Antony Funnell, Australia
How did we get to a low carbon world? Barely; with enormous difficulty; by the skin of our teeth; with absolutely no time to spare; with a constant eye for any other option.
We got there through fair and foul—through market economics as much as enlightenment; through dirty politics and national self-interest, not just fine words and good intentions.
But we got there—just in time.
Now we have to live with the consequences of taking so long to make the journey.
How did we create a low carbon world? Through high-tech luck more than dogged persistence; through scientific game-changers like nuclear fusion and artificial photosynthesis.
But we created it—just in time.
So, what did we discover along the way?
We prided ourselves that human beings are ultimately self-correcting—perhaps, maybe. But we were also forced to acknowledge that we like to avoid taking difficult decisions until the very last moment—until the hour is about to strike. Until we absolutely have to.
We learned that—grudgingly.
Still, we got there—with not a moment to spare.
And now we have to deal with the consequences of taking so long to make the journey.
(Antony Funnell is an author and presenter of Future Tense)
Climate crimes: Professor Peter Doherty AC, Australia
The eminent international lawyers who drew up the Climate Crimes Against Humanity Statutes way back in 2045 certainly hadn't made it easy for prosecutors or defence counsel. Even without any statute of limitations, most of these cases had to be tried after the real defendants were dead. Those early jurists had, of course, foreseen that circumstance in mandating the confiscation of inherited wealth that could be traced back to a culpable individual. But, apart from the difficulties associated with following the money trail, and even with the capacity to penalise complicit bankers and accountants, the basic problem was the unfairness of recovering substantial amounts of money from people who were often completely innocent of any personal wrongdoing.
Still, the level of public rage was so overwhelming that there had to be some perception of retribution against those who had, for example, bought-up promising clean and green technologies to suppress them, or had benefitted from the aggressive marketing and distribution of fossil fuels. And the long-gone politicians who had allowed this to continue had, in the main, not left substantial estates. Apart from the odium attached to their names in the historical record—every school kid can list them—they paid no price.
The year 2100 saw the abandonment of the whole strategy. Prosecuting climate crimes had been a waste of time and effort, with no real deterrent effect or any other obvious benefit. We've learned our lesson and have moved on.
(Professor Peter Doherty AC is the joint winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1996 and Australian of the Year in 1997)
Common sense: Professor Chris West, UK
In city-colonies alongside energy and food centres and ecology reserves, we have immersion pods so children can experience what the world was like after humans 'swarmed' and nearly sabotaged the planet. They can see and feel compressed into minutes the time of reckless chopping, digging, burning, befouling, breeding and fighting that happened and hear the falsehoods of leaders blinded by greed and bingeing selfishly as others starved and died. They called it 'progress'.
Most children cry on experiencing the harpooning of a whale or the felling of an ancient tree. They ask us older ones, why did you let it happen? It's a fair question, hard to answer. Our world is hot, crowded and damaged, but we finally realised that life was more precious than money. We discovered ourselves. We take the children and share with them the 'rewild areas' to feel the shade of trees and listen to real birdsong. They learn about ecology, not economics, so they understand that we depend on nature as it depends on us. Us older ones celebrate survival and the youngsters hope and renewal.
This isn't really about politics, economics or religion. It is a combination of common sense and deep feelings and taking responsibility, each of us as a human and as a part of nature.
(Professor Chris West is CEO, Royal Zoological Society of Scotland)
Cleaner, fairer, smaller: Rachel Kyte, USA
The changes came when trees and farms started appearing in every small plot of land in the city. Dining halls became the place to be. No more restaurants with tables for two. On stilts above the wave turbines and under the solar arrays, I remember the academic year when, for the first time, the majority of students sought careers in neither finance nor law, but in nexus engineering: food-water-energy. It was the same year that GDP was replaced with the new wealth index—and despite 'Y2K fears' all went well. There were no major devaluations and those doubts of a disorderly transition to low-carbon growth were faced down.
Did having an all-female G7 Summit 10 years earlier have anything to do with the smoothness of the transition? Probably, but with conflicts on the rise, displaced people on the move and air quality choking back progress, it was tough pragmatism that I remember.
Deciding to end income tax and replace it with carbon consumption was the centrepiece of the election platform. Only when three megacities declared bankruptcy after the summer of squalls did soccer mums truly get behind the call. And it worked, despite disputes in the courts.
Now, everything has become smaller. Apartments, trains and mobility devices, watches and personal data devices. Veggie burgers. Still, it's cleaner and fairer.
But I miss some things because we didn't move fast enough. Coral reefs and alpine skiing, anchovies and sardines, having a pet. The coastal paths of my childhood in the UK. The iconic 'Slip, Slop, Slap' campaign seems so quaint now as the summer burns and the winter freezes. So afraid to act, we forgot that not acting was in fact the most dangerous action!
The cost of the damage has crippled some economies far more than the costs of adjustment. But those that invested are transformed. Deserts are our new energy super-suppliers, from Chile to Morocco to Mongolia.
If we knew then what we know now we would have had more confidence. We could have preserved the cultures of low lying communities, from Florida and Tuvalu to the Sundarbans. We could have preserved more of the glaciers and averted the water disputes that have redrawn the political maps. We had the information at our fingertips. We just didn't get everyone to move as quickly as they should have.
(Rachel Kyte is vice-president and special envoy for climate change, World Bank)

A bespoke, innovative IoT and wearable healthcare solution
In late 2014 we were approached by healthcare startup, Alcove, to help build part of the company's "connected care" solution. Alcove had a mission of revolutionising elderly care and support, a goal driven by increasing demand for carers, shrinking disability budgets, changing legislation, and the rising expense and inflexibility of existing solutions.
Alcove's strategy revolved around a four-pronged, internet-of-things care service, comprising in-home sensors to monitor patients, a wearable assistance device, smartphone and tablet apps, and digital tools to monitor the activity of care workers.
Our goal was to work closely with the company to define and develop the wearable technology portion of its strategy, known as Alcove Wearable, which needed to alleviate the problems care patients experience when trying to contact family members or carers during emergencies and moments of distress.
Collaborating with Alcove, and informed by the biggest pain-points of their users, we determined that the wrist-based application needed to offer three core elements of functionality:
Acutely aware that we were designing for a user group with limited digital proficiency and a very specific set of needs, we developed a bespoke solution that was intelligent, simple, and incredibly easy to use. Our development team constructed a fully-customised, stripped-back version of the Tizen operating system, limiting the functionality of the Samsung devices to the three core features agreed with Alcove.
Matched by a clean and straightforward user interface, the tailored watch app was designed to be as user-friendly as possible, and removed the possibility of patients accidentally activating a feature or navigating to a different part of the operating system by mistake. We shared a belief with Alcove that user experience was paramount, and that style and visual appeal didn't need be sacrificed because of the demographic of the target audience.
Yes, the smartwatch does act as a big red button and it can be pressed for help if it is needed, but it actually tells the time and it's got a funky leopard or zebra print strap. A lot of the older adults like a bit of fashion; people don't lose all sense of taste and style as soon as they reach 70!
Since the product's launch in 2015 as part of the wider Alcove service offering, it has received plaudits and recognition from the healthcare industry (links below). It's estimated that the products will save care and support providers an average of £30,000 a year, while patients and their families are able to benefit from a more intelligent, efficient, and transparent care process.
During a trial with East Thames Group housing association, which has since materialised into a full partnership, 92% of users felt Alcove's apps and systems were easy to use, while 84% of carers reported feeling less stressed since using the technology. Response times reduced by 78% during the trial, and East Thames Group were able to make cost savings of £35,000 p.a in just a single 4-resident scheme.
Peterborough City Council have also recently signed a deal to begin using Alcove's suite of digital tools, and a number of awards have also followed. As well as being named the Best Internet-of-Things product of 2015 at the TTE Awards, co-founder and director Hellen Bowey also won Innovator of the Year 2015 for Alcove's impact on the public sector.
Alcove's technology has been making a great impact on the healthcare market, and we're excited to see where it can go in the future. We're proud to have played our part in helping Alcove build an intuitive, groundbreaking wearable product, and look forward to helping patients, carers and families reap the benefits for many years to come.

A copyright is legal protection for your creative works and ideas that are published, broadcast, or presented or displayed publicly. According to current laws in the U.S., the moment you publish anything, say, a SlideShare or blog post, it comes under copyright for the duration of your life, plus 70 years.
Seems simple enough, but you know the subject can get complicated on even the best of days, if not downright messy. Copyright has always been a bit, well, "gray." It has nuances that only the trained eye can see.
Fortunately, you can take steps to handle the gray, which may or may not come in 50 shades. Check out these three tips:
Citing sources is the golden rule of copyright compliance. It's about treating peers—other writers, podcasters, vloggers and communications professionals—the way you want to be treated. If you wish to be cited by others, start by citing them first.
Brian Solis would encourage you to be the "change agent." No one's going to implement copyright compliance just because. It'll start when someone takes the first step and leads the way.
There is help with that; Maria Popova of Brainpickings has created the "Curator's Code." It clarifies why attribution is important and gives practical tips for doing so.
If you're more interested in having people reuse original branded content, check out Creative Commons. They have several licenses available, including one specific to attribution.
It's rare that a person intends to violate someone else's copyright. In fact, it usually happens because they didn't know the work was copyrighted or didn't understand the best ways to reuse the content.
That reason is one of many for ongoing education and training. Keep teammates informed of best practices. Create an internal wiki that houses up-to-date information and resources. Have trainings based on events in the news.
Also involve executives, managers and other influential employees. You can effect a lot of change on your own, but you'll accomplish even more if leaders at the organization set the example.
You've safeguarded your content. Everything's good to go, right?
Not so fast. If you struggle with copyright, other people are bound to, too. Keep track of your content. Use alerts and social listening software. If you keep an ear to the ground, so to speak, you'll almost always know where and how your content is being used.
Also, document everything and establish a rhythm for reviewing content and copyrights. A person who infringes upon copyright once probably isn't someone to worry about. A repeat offender may require legal action.
That doesn't make you the bad guy, though it may feel that way. You're doing your job. And by doing it, you help others to do the same. Everyone wins when content is used fairly and according to copyright; no one ever gets lost in the shades of gray.

I need to buy new clothes. My wardrobe literally doesn't fit me anymore because everything is too big. I went through my closet this morning and picked out 30 shirts to donate to Goodwill. None of my work uniforms fit. They're so big that I need to tighten my belt (on which I have keys and a small tool pouch with a flashlight) to the point where it hurts my skin around my now, smaller hips, and yet they still fall down from the weight of my heavy Carhartt pants. All of my pants, for that matter, fall down unless I wear a belt. Shirts, underwear, and even older socks are now too big.
I don't want this post to sound like I'm complaining. I've just never really had to deal with an issue like this before.
I've started with buying Fruit Of The Loom colored tees from Target that are $5 each (and fit very well, I might add), only because they might be a bit too big in a month or two when I hit my final weight goal. Pants are different, though. They can be costly, and throwing them out in a month isn't ideal.
Uniforms are in a different realm. My company pays for them through the uniform supply company, Cintas, and I can only order twice per year. I made an order in December for shirts and pants that are one size smaller than I used wear, but I fear those will now be too big when I finally get them.
This is a weird transitional time in my life and this clothing issue makes it all the more weird. I think the solution is to buy cheaper clothes for the time being until I stabilize my weight and settle in to my new body.

As we turn towards the new year and 2016 rolls into view I find myself getting excited for all the traveling and teaching I will be doing in the coming year. I am planning my classes and also have two shows to do new work for, so it is a juggling exercise of studio time vs. computer time. Lots of people have asked me how much time I spend in the studio as opposed to other activities, such as taking photos of my artwork, emailing clients, and writing this blog! Well, that varies from week to week, but most people are surprised at how much time I spend away from my studio. In reality I have found that being an artist is only partially about making art, and a lot about the business of art.
There is so much to do outside of the studio: social media, letter writing, updating emailing lists, updating inventory, communicating with galleries and other sales venues, working on a schedule, and generally keeping track of the myriad of small details that are a part of being a self-employed business person. And don't even get me started about taxes! That job is right around the corner... However the bonus of all this desk sitting is getting into my studio again, which I plan to do right after the first of the year. I have paintings to paint and glass to fire in the kiln, and hours to lose myself in the creative activity of making art. But first I have to go for a walk...
An important part of my creative life is getting outdoors. Most days I try and go for a long walk, row, bicycle, or work in the garden. It is a preparatory time for me, one where I clear my head and get in touch with my quiet self, my creative self. While not actual studio time, it is most certainly an integral part of time spent in the studio.
So to answer all those people who ask me how many hours a week I actually spend in the studio, I will say that, depending on the week, I guess I average around 20 studio hours and a random number of office hours and outdoor hours. I try and balance my time between the three locales. It works for me.
How do you balance studio time with business time? Do you have an activity that is important to your studio practice?

Displaying a bright purple hue with multicolored designs, an elaborate fish makes a mystical addition to your home decor with this figurine from Mexico. Pablo and Lucy Mendez, who carry on the tradition of alebrije folk art, work together to create the fish. They carve this figurine of copal wood and paint it by hand.
Alebrijes are a fairly recent Mexican art form, attributed to Pedro Linares. Unconscious due to illness in 1936, he was presumed near death and yet his dreams were extremely vivid. He tells of a place where all was peaceful and quiet until all of a sudden there appeared a lion with an eagle's head, a rooster with bull's horns and a donkey with butterfly wings. They kept screeching "alebrije, alebrije!" and Pedro began running away. He encountered a man who told him it was not yet his time to be there are and he should continue running towards the exit. In this dream Pedro climbed out of a window and regained consciousness.
Pablo's profits from the alebrij sculptures he creates for NOVICA allow him to create and financially support a healthy life for his wife and two children.
This artist positively impacts their community through job creation and provides jobs for 2 or more people.
The Women's Empowerment badge is awarded to female artisans or artisan groups that are led by women.
Lucy's income allows her to provide a necessary basic education to their children in their home.
Pablo won 2nd Place in the Carved Wood Contest in the Mexican state of Oaxaca.
This artist has dramatically improved their livelihood by working with NOVICA.
Lucy financially supports their two children.

"What we enjoy the most is how real and mythical animal shapes can emerge from a simple branch. They can be so colorful and original that they appear to have had a life on another planet."
"Crafts are a pillar for the economy of many families in our community. These workshops are made up of grandparents, parents and their children. In our case, this craft have been handed down from generation to generation. Our parents and uncles taught us and we are now teaching our children so that this art doesn't die out.
"Striking out on our own has been a bit difficult because we've just started from the ground up. Our desire to get ahead has motivated us to improve our alebrijes and we feel that competition is good.
"To learn this craft, you need to be very dedicated and patient. Our greatest challenging is innovating to create new designs. Our inspiration comes from everything that surrounds us, like nature and those moments in life that can express a feeling.
"We use natural branches of copal wood but sometimes work in willow, cedar and zompantle. I shape the creatures and images. We treat the wood and, when a piece contains imperfections, we make a sawdust paste to fill in the gaps. I do the carving, treat the wood and polish it. Lucy creates the designs and paints the motifs.
"What we enjoy the most is how real and mythical animal shapes can emerge from a simple branch. They can be so colorful and original that they appear to have had a life on another planet. It's wonderful to see so many people appreciating a finished piece and to observe joy and surprise on their faces. This is very satisfying for us.
"We'd like for our workshop to grow little by little and be able to offer jobs to other families in our community. We want our work to be seen in other countries so that everyone can be aware of the art in our town."

Eric Mina and Steve Desimone on CSN Bay Area's Chronicle Live Friday
May 13, 2010
BERKELEY - Cal junior men's golfer Eric Mina and Golden Bears head coach Steve Desimone will be guests on Comcast SportsNet Bay Area's Chronicle Live television show this Friday, May 14 (5-6 p.m. PT). Mina became only the second Cal men's golfer to ever win the Pac-10 individual title in the 51-year history of the event last month, while Desimone is in his 31st season at Cal and led the Bears to an NCAA championship in 2004.
The show, which is produced in partnership with the San Francisco Chronicle sports department, also replays on Comcast SportsNet Bay Area at 11 p.m. and Comcast SportsNet California at 6 p.m. and midnight. Chronicle Live is also available on Comcast Digital Cable's ON DEMAND Channel 1. In addition, a live stream of the show can be viewed online from 5-6 p.m. at CSNBayArea.com.
Mina came back from four shots off the lead on the final day of the 2010 Pac-10 Championship to capture medalist honors, joining current PGA Tour pro Charlie Wi (1995) as the only Golden Bears to ever win the event. He finished the 72-hole tournament at 16-under par and was the only player in the field to shoot four consecutive rounds of 68 or better (65-68-67-68 - 216), including a career-best 65 in the opening round.
Mina's Pac-10 performance wrapped up an outstanding month of April in which he was named the Pac-10 Men's Golfer of the Month, marking the second time he has won the honor this season. Mina posted a 69.0 stroke average over 10 rounds in April and finished the month with six consecutive rounds of 68 or better.
The month continued what has been an outstanding 2009-10 campaign for Mina, who is currently ranked No. 23 in the nation by Golfstat and No. 34 according to Golf Week. Mina has posted a team-best 70.5 stroke average this season and is the only member of the Cal squad to have played in all 12 events and 36 rounds in 2009-10. In addition to his victory at the Pac-10's, he was also a winner of the Spartan Classic last September and leads the squad with five top-10 finishes. Mina has been the team's top finisher in seven of 12 events, including each of the last three.
Mina and his teammates are next in action at the NCAA San Diego Regional hosted by San Diego State May 20-22 at the par-72, 7,360-yard Carlton Oaks Golf Club in Santee, Calif. The top five clubs and the low individual from a non-qualifying team at each of six regional tournaments across the nation will advance to the 2010 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championships hosted by the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga June 1-6 at the Honors Course in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Other guests scheduled to appear on Friday's Chronicle Live include Geoff Blum (Houston Astros Third Baseman), Ann Killion (CSN BayArea.com), Steve Konroyd (Comcast SportsNet Chicago Blackhawks Analyst), Evgeni Nabokov (San Jose Sharks) and Mychael Urban (CSN Bay Area.com MBL Insider).
In conjunction to the television show, Chronicle Live Interactive on CSNBayArea.com allows fans to interact with host Greg Papa and show guests, generate show content through engaging community features, and play an integral part in developing the show format and tone by sharing fan perspectives and opinions.

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is made with cream cheese to keep it tender and moist. With lots of chocolate chips, this one is a special treat! This Chocolate Chip Banana Bread freezes well so it's a great make ahead dish for vacation or to keep in the fridge for when you need to deliver a sweet home-baked basket of goodies.
After-school activities are in full swing right about now and college football is on the horizon! Are y'all super excited? We can't wait to go watch our favorite Georgia Southern Eagles and Georgia Bulldogs get a start on whoopin' some you-know-what this season! At least we're hoping that's the way things turn out…
My regular Banana Bread recipe to me is the perfect breakfast food. It's portable, freezes well, and is nourishing and comforting when people need nourishing and comforting.
And don't we all need nourishing and comforting right now?
But this Chocolate Chip Banana Bread—well, this feels decadent and more than just comforting. This feels like your Grandma just walked in the front door and gave you a big old hug.
That's how I always wanted the boys to feel when they came home from school. There would usually be brownies or cookies or something else that felt special, something that encouraged sitting down for a moment with a snack and glass of milk and talking about their day.
Lots of days they didn't want to talk at all, but usually they did. The key is to try and listen without advising (I'm still a work in progress on that one) and to refrain from passing judgment. Tough, I know. But that's what lets them know it's safe to open up to you.
So let's talk about this Chocolate Chip Banana Bread!
This recipe is quite different from my regular Banana Bread. This one has cream cheese, which I love in baked goods because it adds a little tang and a lot of moistness. I cannot stand dry cakes or breads.
And the chocolate chips…one-way ticket to Nirvana…
You can use bittersweet chocolate chips since this recipe does have a good bit of sugar, or you can use semi-sweet chocolate chips. They are both delicious additions to this tender, crumbly, sweet bread.
Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is one of my favorite things to gift someone with, either someone who's just had a baby or maybe when dropping off a sympathy meal. I love that you can make this bread a day or so before you need it, or even a week and store it in the freezer.
And you can even make smaller loaves in those mini loaf pans—wrap in some pretty cellophane and you have lovely Christmas gifts!
Are you making this recipe? Tag #SouthernFoodandFun on Instagram. I LOVE to know when someone feeds their family with one of my recipes!
Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 8-ounce pkg cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (about 4 medium)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips (bittersweet or semi-sweet)
- Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour two loaf pans.
- Beat butter and cream cheese on medium speed until light and creamy. Gradually add sugars, and beat until well blended and creamy. Add eggs one at a time and beat until just blended.
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, and slowly add to butter mixture, beating on low speed until just blended. Stir in bananas and vanilla. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into loaf pans and bake for one hour, or until pick inserted in the center comes out clean. You may need to cover with foil the last 15-20 minutes to prevent over-browning.
- Cool pans on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove bread from pans. Cool at least 30 minutes before slicing.

Close Friends
When I was thirteen, Tim Dannenfelser approached me between classes and said, "Hey. I want to go jogging with you." I said, "Sounds good!" I was sort of known in my class as The Runner, and at the time I would take absolutely any positive distinction anyone would give me. Plus, I liked Tim very much, though we weren't close. He was a popular kid with a friendly, social fearlessness that I'd always admired.
We met up at one end of Providence's Blackstone Boulevard jogging path and set off. This was a solid mile-and-a-half route, and we took it slow, which gave us plenty of time to talk. And talk we did, about music, and the other kids in class, and our families, and about where we were going to high school. When we reached the end of the path we sat on a bench and talked some more. Then it was time to go, and as we stood up, Tim said, "Man. I like talking to you."
This didn't surprise me. I was extremely comfortable one-on-one. I liked the intimacy of it, and that this privacy allowed you travel anywhere conversationally. Talking could be as much fun as games or movies, but only if you were free to follow what both people wanted to follow together. I always felt I understood the rules of one-on-one conversation, as if I could read the signs of where to go next. I could not say the same of groups, where I often felt lost, where my impulse toward intimacy seemed inappropriate. For this reason, I did not feel popular, which seemed like a measurement of how well you faired in groups.
I think this must be a familiar story for a lot of writers. There is very little as intimate as the relationship between writer and reader. The reader allows the writer into their very mind, and once together they head off on a journey unique to that reading. Of course, we writers want to be popular, meaning we want lots and lots of people to buy our books, but this popularity has nothing to do with groups. It is a popularity based on a collection of unique friendships, where every writer is free to write what he or she wants, and every reader is free to finish a story or choose another.

Castles, cheese, and cuisine.
Grey stone, green moss, and gold ornaments
Old wealth is just a layer that the modern Northern France is built on. A history steeped in rule and braced for cold weather. The money poured into the monuments of each city be it churches, walls, or clock is astounding
The cities have seen their heydays as far as massive works and expansion as the centralized wealth has been partially democratized and flipped into a tourist industry.
It's pretty.

Adam Yates climbs to another top-ten on stage 17 of Tour de FranceWed 22 Jul 2015
British debutant Adam Yates has climbed to his third top-ten result at this year's Tour de France on stage 17, the first of four stages in the Alps, today.
The 22-year-old was part of an initial 28-rider group before joining a select handful to chase Simon Geschke (Giant-Alpecin) who escaped in the final 50km and eventually held on for victory.
Feeling the pinch on the penultimate climb, Yates pushed hard on the descent and final climb to the line to hold onto tenth place.
"A very credible ride by Adam today," sport director Matt White said. "A top ten in another Alpine stage in the Tour is no easy feat."
"We saw a very aggressive start and he found himself in a group of guys that are now in the top ten of general classification with Mathias Frank (IAM Cycling) and Andrew Talansky (Cannondale-Garmin) moving up considerably.
"He gave it all he could, amongst some very good company.
"He is 22years of age, in his first Tour de France. To be mixing it again at the tail end of the Tour is a great sign for the future and a great sign for the next couple of days as well."
How it unfolded:
After a series of resistance-free breakaways in the second week of racing, today's start to the final week was a little more aggressive.
It took the best part of 50km for a big group of 28 riders to form off the front of proceedings and despite a lack of cooperation by many of those within; it remained in one piece into the final 50km.
On the lower ramps of the category one Col d'Allos, Simon Geshke (Giant – Alpecin) attacked solo and reached a two-minute advantage. Behind him Yates was one of five who set off from the chase in pursuit.
Thibaut Pinot (FDJ) was the strongest of the pursuers on the major climb, but a crash unsettled the Frenchman on the descent and he dropped back.
Andrew Talansky became the most dangerous threat for Geschke, but he held on up the final climb for a strong solo victory.
Behind, the general classification riders threw multiple attacks at Chris Froome (Team Sky), but it wasn't enough to gain any time back on the leader. Notably, Alberto Contador (Tinkoff-Saxo) crashed on a descent and lost more time.

I LOVE everything about weddings! They are beautiful. fun. exciting. life changing. emotional. forever. Having the honor of photographing one of the most special days in a couple's life makes me so ecstatic! The best part is that every wedding and every couple is so completely different and unique each in their own way. That is why I LOVE what I do. I love the variety and the opportunity that I have to take that uniqueness and the couple's vision for their wedding and capture it in a way that will preserve not only their love for each other, but also their personalities and their style, to show off for years to come. And I have so much FUN doing it! I love to photograph those couples who have a lust for life and want to just have fun! I guess I would say that my style is mostly happy, colorful, beautiful, and just a little bit quirky. I can't wait to meet all the fabulous couples out there ready for me to tag along!

Crystal is the best, would recommend her in a heartbeat
We've known Crystal since she's been in Portland and absolutely love her. Any time a friend asks for a photographer recommendation she's my first and only recommendation - whether its weddings, family portraits, or head shots. She does an amazing job capturing candid moments and makes you feel so comfortable throughout the process. She's got a great eye for what will and won't work and is just a delight to work with. Crystal was really flexible with us to make sure our wedding photography package covered all of the things we wanted without pressuring us for more. She took the time to figure out what shots were important to us, and we definitely benefited from her wealth of wedding expertise (she made some very helpful suggestions to our timeline). I still get compliments about how beautifully our photos turned out. Absolutely wouldn't change a thingSent on 12/31/2018

Or actually doody calls and necessitates a diaper change. I have been a lot more focused and calculated in going about making modifications to the truck. Gone are the days where I can sit isolated in the garage pontificating on a concept or experimenting through trial and error. The benefit of this shift is that I am doing a lot of this planning while attending to chores and then undertaking changes in concise shifts of work on the truck. The Mrs. is happier because I am attending more to my household duties, and I am happy to be relieved of some of the friendly 'reminders' that she used to make.
So I've been driving around with no power to my radios, the rear winch out of the commission, and no power inverter for any 110V accessories drawing more than an amp or so. (The one in the cab can handle about an amp or two tops; the rear maxes out somewhere around 9amps).
These past couple of days I was able to make the permanent connections. I still need to zip tie the wires so that they are fixed and neatly routed.
Now just need to tidy up the wires.
Up next will be, in all likelihood, routing control wiring from both winches up into the cab. My goal is to retain the option of either hooking up the controller into the stock ports or to run them from the driver seat. I may also consider putting in a disconnect switch adjacent to the momentary control switches. More on that to come...

My new co-pilot
Well, my new copilot arrived about a week ahead of schedule. He was born full term and all that jazz.
This won't be a long post, as I've spent most of the past few days either in the hospital, getting the house final-prepped, and running errands to host the visitors coming to see both of our families' first grandson.
My wife hates that shirt as I invariably wear it outside of St. Patrick's day season. It features a leprechaun (like the Lucky Charms guy) with the caption "Lucky". We certainly felt lucky that Thursday morning.
We got to leave Saturday morning. The truck was still airing out. The fumes were appreciably diminished, but there was to be no arguing with a pregnant lady about what vehicle her baby boy was going to ride in. I actually had to agree. He came home in a Nissan nonetheless- the wife's Rogue.
I went to Babies R Us today to pick up a second base for the car seat to outfit my truck. The stroller came with a car seat and base. The bases can be purchased separately for ready transfer of the carrier/seat between vehicles.
Well, I was delighted to see this 4Runner. I had hoped to run into the driver, but alas, we missed one another. I'll have to look at the photo closely, but the rims at least gave the appearance of bead locks. It was also fitted with a Gobi Ladder and rack. Kinda pricey if all one is doing is mall crawling. No, I suspect this guy might actually wheel. Or at least he used to until he started having to make runs to Babies R Us.
So now with the two of us posed here, I'm certain other 'regular' customers were like, "Who is breeding with these jokers?!" Well, I can only hope that we offroad enthusiasts grow in sustainable numbers.
Right across from us was this Power Wagon. I award the owner several points for the discreet hidden winch setup. It says, "I don't have to be showy or flashy to get the job done". Well played, sir or madame.
I'm off this week. If the little guy continues to settle in well, I may actually get to finish up my electrical system. There just hasn't been much continuous sleep in the evenings due to feedings and such. I can't really help much with that as they recommend his nutrition comes straight from mama for the first two weeks and then later reserves can be pumped out for bottle feeding. I'd like to have the truck fully ready with also some provisions for bottle storage/preservation should we find ourselves in a Bug-out situation. I really need someone to raffle off an ARB Freezer/Fridge. I don't think anyone else offers anything close, but at $800, it is quite a pricey investment. We will see.
Probably still a few weeks out before I can venture out to a nearby trail guilt-free to test out the Coopers and generally scratch the trail itch.
'Til next time.

Labor Day(s)- Bedlining the interior and making a trail rack for the bed
Without even meaning to launch into conversations about what is going on with the truck, it still invariably comes up. In the case of the brunch my wife and I attended on Saturday, we didn't even take my truck because it was still airing out (more on that later). So it's not even like we pulled up and someone was like, "What the F- is that?!". And that does happen. But we took her car and were meeting another couple. They're talking about a sister that lives in Oklahoma. I inquired where specifically as I've spent some time in Oklahoma. Incredulously, they inquired, "So what were you doing in Oklahoma?!" And there were two instances. One was for the Women's NCAA basketball tourney in 2003. It drew not really any follow up inquiry. "And then there was the time I was coming back from the Grand Canyon." And when I explain that was not my first time driving cross country, we then get into what I do with the truck and why.
Even that little digression necessitated a paragraph. Anyway, my intent this weekend was to remove all of the carpeting, apply a bed liner coating, and concurrently fabricate a new rack system over the bed to create a second tier of storage, spare tire management, and recovery gear portage. It was not intended to be anything fancy. Just needed a sturdy frame. Along the way, I figured I would also need to rework how things are laid out in the cab of the truck since I would no longer have any upholstery to conceal cables that were previously traversing portions of the cab. That was my mission. I got about 85% of the way through.
I parked behind this Lotus outside of one of the sites that I assist with. I think Veronica wanted to mount the truck. I was actually surprised by the driver of the vehicle. I thought maybe, smug, pretentious guy in an impeccable suit. But he was actually pretty casual, as if he just rolled out of bed, put on some chinos and a comfortable tshirt and that was it. A guy walked up as I was finishing taking pictures of it.
I think that's him in the background. He asked if it was mine. "Noooo, no. I'm the pickup behind him".
"Not a bad ride either," he replied. I don't think we are in the same calibre as a Lotus, but I am fond of my ol' gal.
I certainly need to be able to do some wheeling soon. All of my photos are now urban or are of other trucks that probably see more malls than trails. Need an offroad intervention.
So I want to change that. Despite my meager efforts to vacuum or remove stains, I just find that the carpet just trapped EVERYTHING. Mud never came fully out. Dog hair refused the power of the best shop vac I have in my arsenal (and I have like 5). And then for the plastics which need a judicious amount of soap, water and scrubbing, I always felt limited by not wanting to introduce that much water into a carpeted area with limited opportunities to air out.
I'm much more interested these days in getting it right and revising the things that worked..."OK" and making them better. For posterity, some of these photos will pretty much exemplify what not to do.
NOTE** If/when you disconnect these, you will get an airbag warning on your dash. I thought simply reconnecting when I'm done would resolve it. It does not. I found on clubfrontier what can be done by the home garage mechanic to reset it. Kind of the same deal you have to do to clear/check you Service Engine Soon. So I will attempt that some day this week and report back if it clears up.
1) The gap is livable and I'm fine with it. I also think it opens some options for concealing some wiring.
2) The glue stuff. I saw where a guy painstakingly ground all of it away. It was very hard, but the ends were brittle. There were also some portions where the center had cracked, but all of it was very well adhered. I thought it might do well as a traction aid once the bed liner was applied. In hindsight, I probably should have removed it. It has reacted with some of the solvents in the bedliner. It is, so far, still well adhered. However, its texture has changed. It is now a bit pliable and gives a little bit under pressure. Time will tell if it will hold up or will ultimately prove to be a regret. The one plus side is that it generally occurs in areas that would be covered by a floor mat.
3) The air vents don't bother me so much at this moment. There is one section where they are kind of in the foot area of the front passenger and driver. If they become too obnoxious, two quick screw/bolts and the floor portion can be unbolted and the ducting can just be allowed to blow into the center console.
I was surprised by how much padding there was incorporated in the carpeting to provide a level walking surface. It was some pretty high density stuff. I would not have otherwise known that there were vents underfoot or that there were so many changes of plane in the contours of the body.
I was nervous initially when I bought the two gallons (at about $60 each) that the contents sounded too watery. I thought maybe the grit had settled and the oil was what I could hear sloshing around in such a watery way. I never got around to seeking out a drill powered mixer. So I smashed an old roller handle to liberate the stem and fed it into my drill bit. Instant mixer.
It needs a minimum of 24 (twenty-four) hours to be ready for light service. More time is recommended.
My goofy @ss decides to go get breakfast for me and the wife. I put the driver seat in and it kinda knicks the stuff away as it is going in just a bit too readily. Then I think I should maybe put down a mat to prevent my heel from digging in too hard while driving. As I got out at the BK, my left foot had made a bit of a depression at some point when I was being inattentive. I realize it has not cured as hard as it seemed to the touch. I went to remove the mat and it tried to take some of the bedliner with it. My heart sank. All of this was for naught. My dreams of an impervious, cleanable surface were sacrificed in the names of thrift and convenience.
This, so far, has proved not to be the case. I just need to read.
I took this pic (above) 'cause I thought it was kind of clever how I figured out how to use my light stand tripod and a clamp to make an adjustable brace to hold the assembly in place while I completed the tack welds.
I have a lot of failures it seems.
The other thing I tried to do as a part of reworking the toolboxes was to get rid of the vertical supports. I bolted together some of that slotted angle in the days where I did not yet have a welder. The back of the truck just looked very junkyard-ish as a result. Like I just assembled it with whatever spare parts were around. There is some definitely some truth that I do used things that are spare or available, but the idea is that it shouldn't look like I've been thrift shopping or salvaging EVERYTHING. So I searched online and thought of using some deck strapping to brace and 'lift' the rear and lower portions of the boxes. I also affixed the last usable portions of my 3x3 angle (literally the last 6 inches) and made angle supports at the underside of the rear portion of the boxes. I'll need to trail test this to see how it holds up. I'm excited for what appears to be reclaimed clear space along the floor of the bed to maybe stow a small cooler beneath one of the boxes. At worst, I can use an angled brace almost like what you would use to support the underside of a shelf towards the front end of the boxes over the wheel well. That would at least preserve some of this free-floating clearance that I tentatively have gained. We will see.
I didn't get to finish rerouting my auxiliary electrical. We went over to Steve's to visit him and the new addition to the family. No it is not this truck. It happened to be parked in his neighborhood. Funny thing is I mentioned it to Steve and he had already scoped the guy out and had planned on approaching him about whether he would do some wheeling. Great minds. Great minds.
So my to-do list is a bit long.
- finish re-wiring of auxiliary electrical. Contemplating a new location for the fuse block. I'm limited to 10 feet worth of marine grade cabling I picked up assuming I would be entering the firewall from the passenger side. Also includes re-installing the inverter and reconnecting the rear winch to power. I can temp it together in a pinch, but, we are trying to get out of so much...pinching.
- start and finish the long-deferred in-cab controls for both winches. Sigh. Don't remind me. Actually someone probably should remind me.
- figure out if I'm even interested in reworking the new PA speakers. The last ones drowned from repeated dunkings and one smashed to bits basically. I mounted them low to be discreet, but they will need to go higher. Possibly up on the Trail Rack.
Actually I suppose there are lists, with an S
The wife got on me for neglecting some home duties. She got more stuff for the nursery which needed to be hung. My main apprehension is that I didn't want to take the time to do all of the measuring and triangulating after taking as long as I did this weekend doing the same thing essentially in a different environment. But to her point, if I can spend all of that time measuring and cutting and such, why can't I do that in the home? I had just gotten to a point where I thought all that needed to be done to that room was done, and I mentally and emotionally had moved on. It's also one of those things I feel like I can do even once the little guy gets here. I don't think I should be in the garage all day when there are shared duties that have to happen when he arrives. So that is why I was approaching this weekend and some of the other weekends prior in such earnest.
Men and women can see the same things but approach them differently, is all. I'm not sure I have any female readers in my audience. But if I do, know that there is sometimes a method to the seeming madness of men. Now go get me a beer :)
Until next time. I'll post some pics of the completed setup and how the bedliner is holding up.

Ion exchange sorbents embedded with metal oxide nanoparticles can have high affinity and high capacity to simultaneously remove multiple oxygenated anion contaminants from drinking water. This research pursued answering the question, "Can synthesis methods of nano-composite sorbents be improved to increase sustainability and feasibility to remove hexavalent chromium and arsenic simultaneously from groundwater compared to existing sorbents?" Preliminary nano-composite sorbents outperformed existing sorbents in equilibrium tests, but struggled in packed bed applications and at low influent concentrations. The synthesis process was then tailored for weak base anion exchange (WBAX) while comparing titanium dioxide against iron hydroxide nanoparticles (Ti-WBAX and Fe-WBAX, …
