I am tenderly wincing about my house "enjoying" a withering migraine. It's snowing outside, which thank heck, dampens all sound. I get Synesthesia with these migraines (i get it at other times to).Sensory overload will trigger a migraine for me. Often, I will wear sunglasses and ear plugs. It helps. My synesthesia (which I've had since I can remember) manifests as crunchy white sound-waves that I can see, bouncing and rippling off of everything, sort of the same as water would. It can be dissorienting when it really gets going. Thankfully it's only when I am completely overloaded. A tell tale sign that it's time to to lay the physics down, and take a nap. I think my pain threashold has risen/changed… These things happen. Folks suggest I paint what my migraines feel like…maybe
This is how a migraine starts for me:
The last while: I have been working on a number of things. One commission for a stop motion animation I am doing with a fella in SF, California, (top secret stuff. Can't say a dang thing), and the other is a painting commission for a fella in Vancouver, BC (there are snippets of it on my instagram). Some of you have already seen it, so you know what I speak of. Also, I have started a new paintings for a series, which will be going up at Red Light in Nelson BC, Canada, December 7th. These are based on paintings that I did when I was in Scotland, and which are still there, but are very challening to locate apparently. I am learning to make time lapse videos. Yaaaaay. These pieces are big (6 x 4) and are plenty fun for me. Hopefully I get enough well days to finish at least one in time for that show, if not, I will hang my latest work which is already completed. One thing I am learning about chronic pain, is to make huge space for things to not go my way, and to adapt. Good thing I am a type B personality. I can adapt, and am not difficult about it, generally.
Anyone who's been following my instagram knows I loooove plants. Recently, I aquired a black pagoda Lipstick, red anthurium, brons orchid, Iron Cross painted bagonia, and a Monkey Cups carnivourous plant. All of these have me feeling pretty stoked. I tend to trade with friends to aquire these lovlies. I have friends who are also addicted to plants, so it works out. Slowly, my living space is becoming a tropical oasis. Folks like me neeeed oasi? oasis's? Whatever, you get me. I shall post many a pic once these babes take root.
In the meantime, self care, treat yourself nice this fortnight, technically, you've done well. Tend to your own energy before feeding others yours by accident. Don't feel guilty about having boundaries.

Moeen Ali and Jonny Bairstow were England's star duo on a compelling first day of the first Test against Bangladesh in Chittagong. The 29-year-old all-rounder top-scored with 68 from 170 balls and Bairstow chipped in with an untypically patient 52 as England ended the day on 258/7.
Their diligence was much-needed, as England slipped to a precarious-looking 21/3 early in the morning session after winning the toss and batting first. Debutant Ben Duckett (14), captain Alastair Cook (4) and Gary Ballance (1) all failed to make a meaningful contribution on a slow, turning wicket that offered plenty of assistance to Bangladesh's battery of spin bowlers.
Joe Root helped steady the ship with an assured 40, before he was caught at first slip off Bangladesh's teenage off-spinner Mehedi Hasan Miraz, who finished with figures of 5/64 on his debut.
However, the efforts of Bairstow and Ali ensured England were not dismissed for a sub-par score on a wicket that is bound to deteriorate in the coming days. Ali survived five reviews only for the decision to be overturned by the DRS, and the one appeal that Bangladesh decided not to review showed he would have been given out.
Ali and Bairstow, both of whom are natural boundary-hitters, were prepared to bide their time and wait for the bowlers to err in length. "Bangladesh had a great start and the wicket was spinning a bit so it's not a bad total in the end, although we need a few more tomorrow," Ali later told Sky Sports. "We didn't expect it to spin as much as it has done. It spun with the new ball and has been a very tough pitch."
The tourists – who picked three spinners in their attack, in Ali, Adil Rashid and Gareth Batty – will feel they already have a competitive total on the board, given the turn on offer. Chris Woakes (36 not out) and Rashid (five not out) were both unbeaten at the close, with England eyeing a score in excess of 300 on day two.

Slime has been a mainstay at our house for the past two years. And while I don't love the sticky mess left behind in bowls and on spoons, I have to admit that the stuff is fascinating.
And, pretty harmless. Because no matter how hard and gunked-up leftover slime gets, I can dissolve it all with vinegar.
Which made me wonder - what exactly is happening when vinegar comes in contact with slime?
First, a quick slime primer. Slime is a weird substance, acting alternately like a liquid or solid depending on the presence or absence of pressure. It's like quicksand and ketchup - more details here.
That happens because slime is made of glue (a polymer, or long chains of repeating molecules), plus an activator or "cross-linker" like borax. The polymers in the glue and the borate ions (formed when borax dissolves in water) start to link up, stopping those long chains from easily sliding past one another as they had done before.
And then, drumroll……. vinegar enters! Add a decent splash of vinegar, and the whole thing goes liquid.
Vinegar dissolves lots of stuff - remember the old egg-in-vinegar experiment? In that case, the acetic acid in vinegar reacted with the calcium carbonate in the egg shell, producing carbon dioxide gas and turning the shell rubbery.
With slime, vinegar breaks up those cross-linking bonds… and frees whatever the slime was stuck on.
So keep making that slime. Just keep some vinegar nearby.

How to trust your Devon photographer
Getting married in Devon is the chance to have your wedding with some of the most beautiful scenery in the world as your backdrop for some stunning Devon wedding photos. You can choose from a number of beaches such as Woolacombe Bay, Croyde Bay, Westward Ho to name but a few. There's also the magnificent Tunnels Beach weddings in Ilfracombe.
Anyone can pick up a camera, create a website and call themselves a photographer but there is a difference between the majority that can just 'take' photos and the select few that can actually 'Make' a photo!
When searching on google don't just look for Devon photographers on page one as they are mostly people that have spent a lot of time trying to get up the rankings rather than on their abilities to make beautiful images.
It's really important to get to know the person who is going to spend the whole day with you. Imagine your special day ruined by a person who you don't get on with. Great photographers will not only have excellent images but must be a people person, someone who cares about you as a person not just a means to earn a living.
It's the difference between a natural photo and just a picture.
In my experience our clients will always respond better and their photos come alive when you are relaxed.
Technical questions to as a Devon Wedding Photographer
1. Have they a back up plan? - have they got spare cameras, memory cards etc.
2. Do they have reviews from previous weddings? - Trusting your photographer is so important so make sure they have a strong portfolio of images both in good and bad weather. Check out reviews of their work e.g. Steve Nuth Photography's review page
3. Does their style match yours? - If you're looking for artistic Devon Wedding photography does their portfolio match your vision of how you see yourselves being photographed?
4. Do they have a studio where you can come and meet your Wedding photographer? Seeing photos and meeting your photographer beforehand is vital for establishing trust and seeing real printed art work.

Redding BOE cuts $125k from budget
The education board met Tuesday night and, after discussion that chairman Dave Lewson described as "often emotional," agreed unanimously to cut services including the bus to and from the magnet school and after school hours at the Redding Elementary School library.
Also cut was the purchase of 5th-grade social studies books and pre-algebra texts for the middle school, and the purchase of new software programs.
"They were hard cuts to make," Lewson said Wednesday. "They went directly to educational services that we need to deliver to our students. We started out with a lean and responsible budget so any cuts we make directly effects our students."
The $125,000 eduction budget cut was part of the $450,000 that Redding's Board of Finance has required cut from the overall $43.7 million town and schools budget as a result of the defeat of the budget on May 6.
The town was required to cut $75,000 and it was decided that the $750,000 planned to be raised to return to the fund balance would be cut to $200,000. Finance board chairman Bill Alvarez contacted the Region 9 school board and requested that it cut $50,000 from Redding's required $10.97 million portion of the Joel Barlow High School budget.
Selectmen meet Monday to find areas that can be cut in their $12.15 million budget that was already a reduction over the present fiscal year's.

The October/November issue of Radiology Business Journal is always one of our most exciting of the year. It's when we unveil our annual Radiology 100 ranking and it coincides with RSNA's annual meeting in Chicago.
This is our tenth annual Radiology 100 ranking, a milestone we're thrilled to share. This year's results reflect an industry that is still adapting to value-based care, increased consolidation and evolving technologies. (If one thing is consistent in radiology, it's the presence of change.)
My favorite thing about Radiology 100 is the light it shines on each year's trends and how they affect the private radiology marketplace. For example, Anthem has a new policy in several states that aims to push outpatient imaging out of hospitals and into freestanding imaging centers. While I've spoken with some in the industry who think this policy is problematic, others are taking more of a "wait and see" approach. This could be a revolutionary change that other insurance companies adopt or just one payor's hint that hospitals need to dramatically lower their prices; it's too early to tell, but maybe next year's ranking will contain some answers.
Of course, we also cover RSNA 2017 in this issue. In our Q&A interview with RSNA President Richard L. Ehman, MD, he previewed this year's conference for us while providing insight on several topics impacting radiology today. Ehman shared his thoughts on machine learning, innovation and the importance of funding radiologic research, among other things.
Speaking of RSNA 2017—if you find yourself walking through the doors of McCormick Place, please stop by our booth (#2001) for a quick chat. We always look forward to hearing feedback about how we're doing.
Thanks for reading.

Venezuela's president, Hugo Chávez, has halted the construction of a shopping mall in the capital and announced that the prime block of urban real estate should be expropriated after being shocked at the "monster" development.
In his Sunday address Chávez said he was heading through downtown Caracas when he was shocked by the sight of a huge, nearly-finished mall amid the high-rise offices and apartments. "They had already built a monster there," Chávez said. "I passed by there just recently and said, 'What is this? My God!'"
He ordered the local mayor to halt construction, and suggested the sprawling six-storey building might be put to better use as a hospital or university. The new Sambil mall was scheduled to open in the La Candelaria district early next year, packed with 273 shops, cinemas and offices. Chávez complained that it would add more traffic to an area that was already so crowded "not a soul fits".
"Stop it, Mr Mayor," Chávez said during his weekly broadcast on Sunday. "And we're going to review all of it. And we're going to expropriate that and turn it into a hospital - I don't know - a school, a university."
The newly-elected mayor of the district, Jorge Rodriguez, told the president he would get the job done, though how remains unclear. Neither he nor Chávez gave any details of possible compensation.
Victor Maldonado, leadzer of Caracas Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Services, said the sudden decision to freeze one of Caracas's biggest investments threatened 3,000 jobs and had led to a "rise in uncertainty" among businesspeople. Constructora Sambil, the company building the mall, was closed for the holidays, and phones at its offices went unanswered.
Chávez, who has nationalised Venezuela's largest phone company, electric utilities and oil projects, suggested the property was too valuable to be left to commerce. "How are we going to create socialism, turning over vital public spaces to Sambil?" he asked. Rodriguez said that downtown communities would be consulted on the most appropriate use for the building. "We're going to respect private property," he said.
Chávez has previously intervened in local issues, scolding local officials about waste collection, and ordering beer trucks to stop selling alcohol on the streets.
Steve Ellner, a political science professor at Venezuela's University of the East, said Chávez sometimes tried to impose decisions when he thought local institutions were not performing as they should.
"Chávez, I think, is correct to a certain extent in criticising this 'monster.' But that's not the way to do things," Ellner said. "Institutions are necessary, and I think that if this revolution is going to be successful in the long run they have to establish new institutions in order to avoid this kind of decision-making process."

Corporate Governance at Wolford
Wolford is convinced that carefully implemented and actively practiced corporate governance makes an important contribution to strengthening the confidence of the capital markets in the company. In September 2002, the Austrian Working Group for Corporate Governance issued a framework for responsible corporate management and control that is designed to support the sustainable creation of value. The goal of this guideline is to protect the interests of all stakeholders whose welfare is linked to the success of the company.
The Austrian Corporate Governance Code ensures a high degree of transparency for all of the company's stakeholders. Wolford has been committed to the principles of the code since the fiscal year 2002/03. The Austrian Working Group for Corporate Governance is responsible for publishing the Corporate Governance Code. The latest version is available on the Wolford website and under www.corporate-governance.at. The Corporate Governance Code was last revised on July 1, 2012 to reflect the most recent amendments to the Austrian Stock Corporation Act and the Commercial Code, in particular regarding the remuneration system of the Management Board and the composition of the Supervisory Board.
The code is based on the regulations of Austrian stock corporation, stock exchange and capital market law as well as the recommendations of the European Commission on the duties of the Supervisory Board and the remuneration of Management Board members as well as the OECD guidelines for corporate governance. The code provides a framework for corporate management and control.
The guiding principles of the code are intended to strengthen the confidence of investors in the company and in Austria as a financial marketplace and include equal treatment for all shareholders, transparency, the independence of the Supervisory Board, open communication between the Managing Board and Supervisory Board, the avoidance of conflicts of interest by bodies of the corporation and efficient control by the Supervisory Board and auditor. The code exceeds legal requirements, and compliance is voluntary. Observance of the code also means that the failure to meet C-Rules ("Comply or Explain") must be explained and disclosed. The Corporate Governance Report of Wolford AG is integrated into this annual report (pages 60 to 67).
In order to prevent insider trading, Wolford has issued a compliance guideline that implements the provisions of the Issuer Compliance Code published by the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA). Adherence to this guideline is monitored by the compliance officer.
Wolford's objective is to meet the expectations of capital market participants with respect to transparency and to provide shareholders with a true and fair view of the company. The Issuer Compliance Code of the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) requires the simultaneous and identical communication of information. Wolford meets this requirement through the parallel distribution of current and share-relevant information on the company to analysts, investors and the media. This information is also published on the website at the same time for private shareholders.
The company has issued 5,000,000 zero par value common shares.There are no preferred shares or restrictions on the common shares. The principle of "oneshare–onevote" is therefore met in full. The Austrian Takeover Act ensures that every shareholder will receive the same price for his or her Wolford shares in the event of a takeover offer (mandatory tender). The shareholder structure is shown on page 59 of this annual report.
An internal audit department was established as a staff unit reporting directly to the Management Board to ensure the continuous optimization of risk management. This department reports to the Chief Financial Officer and also has a direct reporting line to the chairwoman of the Supervisory Board's Audit Committee. Based on an audit plan approved by the Management Board and a Group-wide risk assessment of all corporate activities, the Management Board and the internal audit department regularly review operating processes to identify potential risks and opportunities for their improvement. Adherence to legal regulations, internal guidelines and processes is also controlled. To support the early identification and monitoring of risks, the Internal Control System is reviewed on a regular basis, improvements are implemented and the results are evaluated. The internal audit department reports to the Management Board and the Audit Committee of the Supervisory Board on the audit plan for the following year and the results of its activities.
Deloitte Audit Wirtschaftsprüfungs GmbH, Renngasse 1/Freyung, 1010 Vienna, was elected by the 26th Annual General Meeting (AGM) to audit the annual financial statements of Wolford AG and the consolidated financial statements of the Wolford Group for the 2013/14 financial year. There are no grounds for exclusion or prejudice that would be incompatible with a conscientious and objective audit by the Group auditor, Deloitte Audit Wirtschaftsprüfungs GmbH. In 2013/14, the fees for the audit of the consolidated financial statements and related services amounted to € 0.12 million. The mandatory disclosures required by § 243a of the Austrian Commercial Code are provided on page 84 of the Management Report.

Responsibilities and Working Methods of the Management Board
The Management Board is responsible for managing the company in accordance with applicable laws, the articles of association of Wolford AG and the rules of procedure of the Management Board in order to protect the welfare of the company and the interests of all shareholders, employees and the general public. The rules of procedure for the Management Board were issued by the Supervisory Board and regulate the working methods and responsibilities of this corporate body. The Management Board manages the company jointly, independent of specifically assigned responsibilities. Issues of fundamental importance require the approval of the full Management Board. The rules of procedure for the Management Board also include a catalogue of measures that require the approval of the Supervisory Board.
There is a continuous exchange of information between the members of the Management Board. This exchange formally takes place in meetings that are held at least twice each month.
At regular meetings (at least once each quarter), the Management Board provides the Supervisory Board with timely and comprehensive information on all relevant issues related to the company's economic and strategic development, including the risk position and risk management of the company and major subsidiaries. Important information is communicated immediately by the Management Board to the Chairman of the Supervisory Board. Additional meetings are scheduled as required, for example to discuss changes in strategy. The Supervisory Board therefore receives all information required to perform its advisory and control functions. In keeping with the Austrian Corporate Governance Code, the Management and Supervisory Boards also hold regular discussions outside the scheduled meetings to review the company's development and strategic orientation.

The Supervisory Board established five com-mittees: Presidium, Personnel and Nomination Committee, Remuneration Committee, Audit Committee, Strategy and Marketing Committee.
The Presidium, which includes the Chairman Emil Flückiger and Deputy Chairwoman Antonella Mei-Pochtler of the Supervisory Board, represents the company's interests in all matters related to the Management Board.
The Presidium met five times during the reporting year to discuss current issues with the Management Board.
The Presidium serves as the Personnel and Nomination Committee for Wolford and is responsible for preparing all appointments to the Management and Supervisory Boards. Prior to the appointment of persons to these corporate bodies, the Personnel and Nomination Committee defines a requirement profile and prepares resolutions for the Supervisory Board or AGM based on a predefined selection process and succession planning. It also serves as a Remuneration Committee for the Management Board. In this function, the committee reviews the remuneration policy for the Management Board at regular intervals and ensures compliance with the related provisions of the Corporate Governance Code.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee deals with the audit of the Group's consolidated financial statements and supervises financial accounting. It also monitors the effectiveness of the internal control, audit and risk management systems and reviews the independence and qualifications of the auditor based on peer reviews. The duties of the Audit Committee were fulfilled by the full Supervisory Board up to the 26th AGM, with Emil Flückiger serving as the committee chairman. The membership of the Audit Committee then changed to include Claudia Beermann (Chairwoman), Emil Flückiger, Antonella Mei-Pochtler and Anton Mathis.
The Audit Committee met twice during the reporting year and dealt primarily with the following issues:
– The auditor's report on the audit of the annual financial statements for 2012/13
– The preparation of a recommendation to the Supervisory Board for the selection of an auditor for the 2013/14 annual and consolidated financial statements
– The company's development through the end of the first half of 2013/14
– The report by the Management Board on risk management of the Group
– The report by the internal auditor on the results of his audits
Strategy and Marketing Committee
This committee was established at the organizational Supervisory Board meeting that followed the 26th AGM. Its members are Lothar Reiff (Chairman), Antonella Mei-Pochtler and Birgit Wilhelm. The Strategy and Marketing Committee held no meetings during 2013/14.
Responsibilities and Working Methods of the Supervisory Board
The Supervisory Board carries out its duties in accordance with legal regulations, the articles of association and its rules of procedure.
The Supervisory Board is responsible for decisions on issues of fundamental importance and the strategic orientation of the company. It establishes qualified committees in accordance with the specific circumstances of the company and the number of its members. These committees are designed to increase the efficiency of the Supervisory Board's work and improve the treatment of complex issues. However, issues delegated to the individual committees may still be handled by the full Supervisory Board. The chairperson of every committee regularly reports to the full Supervisory Board on the work of his or her committee. The Supervisory Board is also required to authorize a committee to make decisions in urgent cases.
Employee participation on the Supervisory Board and its committees is a legally regulated aspect of the Austrian Corporate Governance system. In accordance with the Austrian Labor Constitution Act, employees are entitled to delegate one representative to the Supervisory Board and its committees for every two Supervisory Board members (shareholder representatives) elected by the AGM. These employee representatives exercise this function on an honorary basis and can be recalled by the Staff Council at any time.
None of the Supervisory Board members has business or personal relationships with the company or the Management Board that could provide grounds for a material conflict of interest and therefore influence the behavior of the respective Supervisory Board member. The company maintains business relationships with individual members of the Supervisory Board, which are billed at ordinary market rates and are not material in total. In particular, Lothar Reiff advises Wolford on issues relating to the renewal of market communications, the design of the collection, the organizational structure of design and product development and the reduction of the time-to-market. A market-based, but immaterial fee was agreed for these services and is billed according to the actual work performed.
All members of the Wolford AG Supervisory Board are considered independent according to the criteria defined by the Austrian Corporate Governance Code. Statements to this effect were submitted by all Supervisory Board members. In accordance with § 95 of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act, the Supervisory Board's main responsibility is to supervise the work of the Management Board. The current Supervisory Board meets this responsibility in full. Wolford AG has a free float component of more than 20% and less than 50%. Since the 26th AGM, the Supervisory Board has included at least three members (Antonella Mei-Pochtler, Claudia Beermann and Lothar Reiff) who are neither shareholders with an investment of more than 10% in the company nor representatives of the interests of a large shareholder.
Wolford AG has not granted any loans to members of the Supervisory or Management Boards.
The Internal Audit department of
Wolford AG evaluates compliance with the rules of the code each year based on a questionnaire developed by the Austrian Working Group for Corporate Governance. Based on the results of this evaluation, the deviations from the C-Rules are explained below.
Deviations from C-Rules of the Corporate Governance Code
C-Rule 16, Question 2
The Supervisory Board started the search for a CEO following the resignation of Holger Dahmen from the Management Board on January 10, 2014. This search was still in progress at the end of the 2013/14 financial year.
C-Rule 36, Question 3
The Supervisory Board did not carry out a self-evaluation in 2013/14.
C-Rule 83, Question 1
A management letter from the auditor that also dealt with specific aspects of the accounting-related processes in the internal control system was presented to the Chairman of the Supervisory Board and discussed in detail by the full Supervisory Board. The auditor's engagement did not cover the evaluation of the effectiveness of the risk management system.
Rule 60, Question 1
Wolford AG has not developed a specific plan to support the advancement of women to positions on the Management Board, Supervisory Board or key functions in the company and its subsidiaries. The selection process is designed to ensure the appointment of the best candidates to vacant positions, independent of gender, age, religion and ethnic origin. Women currently hold various key management positions in Woford AG and its subsidiaries. Attractive part-time working models have been created to improve the work-life balance for women returning from maternity leave. Women comprise roughly 80% of the Wolford workforce due to the focus on the operation of its own retail business and the product portfolio with its particular appeal to women. Three of the five elected shareholder representatives on the Supervisory Board of Wolford AG are women.
Remuneration report
The Remuneration Report summarizes the principles applied in determining the remuneration for the Management Board and explains the amount and structure of these payments. It also describes the underlying principles and amount of the Supervisory Board's remuner-ation. The Supervisory Board delegated the determination of remuneration for the Wolford Management Board to the Presidium, which also serves as the Remuneration Committee.
In accordance with the Austrian Stock Corporation Act, the members of the Management Board are appointed for a specific term of office. The employment contracts for these persons were concluded for the defined period of time and cover the amount and structure of remuneration. The goal of the remuneration system is to provide the members of the Management Board with compensation that is appropriate in national and international comparison and reflects the scope of their functions and responsibilities.
The remuneration system for the Management Board comprises a fixed and a variable component. The fixed component reflects the respective area of responsibility and, according to standard practice in Austria, is paid in 14 monthly installments. The variable component is based on the success of the company and the performance of the individual Management Board member and is linked, in particular, to the attainment of quantitative targets and sustainable, long-term and strategic goals. The total amount of remuneration represents appropriate compensation for the duties and responsibilities of the individual Management Board member as well as the position of the company and common industry practice.
The variable component of Management Board remuneration is based on the following four factors:
– the attainment of a target for revenue growth
– the attainment of budgeted EBIT for the financial year
– an increase in the shareholder value based on growth of the Wolford share price
– and a sustainable, long-term and strategic goal
For the Management Board members, the four above-mentioned variable components are capped at roughly 85% of fixed remuneration.
The scheduled remuneration for the members of the Management Board amounted to
€ 1.33 million in 2013/14 (2012/13: € 1.11 million). Of this total, 79% represent fixed (2012/13: 81%) and 21% variable remuneration (2012/13: 19%).
|Scheduled Management Board
Remuneration in €
|Axel Dreher (since 1.3.2013)
|Thomas Melzer (since 1.10.2012)
|Holger Dahmen (up to 31.1.2014)
|Peter Simma (up to 14.9.2012)
On the termination of a Management Board contract, the respective member is entitled to severance compensation in analogous application of the Austrian Salaried Employees Act. On January 31, 2014 the former chairman of the Management Board, Holger Dahmen, received severance compensation of € 797,366 upon his resignation.
There are no pension fund agreements or defined benefit commitments for the active members of the Wolford Management Board. Expenses of € 0.40 million were recognized in 2013/14 for former members of the Management Board (2012/13: € 0.66 million).
A member of the Management Board may only take on additional duties outside the company with the approval of the Supervisory Board. This ensures that neither the time involved nor the remuneration received will lead to a conflict of interest with the individual's responsibilities on behalf of the company. No remuneration is paid for positions in Wolford's subsidiaries.
The AGM determines the remuneration for the elected Supervisory Board members and attendance fees. The 27th Annual General Meeting will be asked to vote on a new remuneration structure for the 2013/14 financial year. The remuneration structure for Supervisory Board members will be defined hereafter as follows:
Remuneration for the function as well as for preparing and attending the four regular Supervisory Board meetings each financial year: Chairman € 50,000, Deputy Chairwoman
€ 35,000, members € 25,000
Members of committees furthermore receive:
– Audit Committee with two meetings per financial year: Chairwoman € 5,500 and members € 5,000 each
– Strategy and Marketing Committee with two meetings per financial year: Chairman € 5,500 and members € 5,000 each
– Additional extraordinary meetings with all members of the Supervisory Board are remunerated with € 4,000 per member and meeting
The remuneration for the reporting year is thus expected to total € 0.19 million (2012/13: € 0.08 million) and is distributed as follows:
|Supervisory Board Remuneration in €
|2013/14 1)
|Emil Flückiger, Chairman (since 17.9.2013)
|Antonella Mei-Pochtler, Deputy Chairwoman
(since 17.9.2013)
|Claudia Beerman (since 17.9.2013)
|Lothar Reiff (since 17.9.2013)
|Birgit G. Wilhelm
|Theresa Jordis (Chairwoman up to 7.9.2013)
|Werner Baldessarini (up to 17.9.2013)
1) The proposal for the new remuneration structure for the Supervisory Board will be voted on at the 27th AGM.
Payments for services above and beyond the above-mentioned Supervisory Board duties are described in the Corporate Governance Report on page 65. There are no pension fund obligations for members of the Wolford Supervisory Board. Wolford has concluded directors and officers (D&O) insurance with coverage of € 25 million for the members of the Supervisory and Management Boards, key employees and the managing directors of subsidiaries. The company carries the cost of this insurance. The purchase and sale of Wolford shares by the members of the Management Board and Supervisory Board are reported to the Austrian Financial Market Authority in accordance with § 48 of the Austrian Stock Exchange Act. No directors' dealings were reported in 2013/14.

Leave Your Politics/
The old saying, "if I wanted politics, I would flip over to the politics channel" is maybe overly simple. However, TR Foley's Friday mailbag this week was irrelevant, inaccurate and nothing more than obvious disdain more middle America. He basically says, "I'm not saying anything bad about republicans but...." and then proceeds to blame all of wrestling's ailments on anyone who is not progressive politically.
I actually wrote a post thanking wrestling on September 2nd this year. I like to watch sports and I believe sports are popular because they are true competition. NFL ratings are actually down this year, and some are blaming the political controversies that people just don't want to tune in to.
From my September 2nd post:
So thank you Wrestling. Every time I hear these stories I get appreciative that the Wrestling world is really not affected by this disease. You need a stronger character to have the discipline and training to be able to compete at a high level, and our sport is a true merit-based competition. We don't have to argue about 157's like the way football fans may bicker about quarterbacks. We know in March we will see that get settled the right way. It sure allows me to actually enjoy my time when I can relax and watch sports.
I'm not trying to say sports and politics don't naturally intertwine from time to time. Joe Louis, Jackie Robinson, the Texas Western Basketball team, and others changed this country for the better through sports far exceeding what any protest could do. Proving yourself through competition is a great societal equalizer for the next generation.
The Wrestling population, however, seems light years ahead of the rest of the sports. Before I thought about writing this, thinking about the population of this year's NCAA semi-finalists' races never crossed my mind. Score another one for wrestling, because when I watch I can leave the politics to the politics writers.
I believe TR Foley has helped wrestling far more than he has ever hurt it, but this attitude he showed in his weekly mailbag column is certainly not helpful. He speaks of "mistakes" in the 1980's & 90's, which barely have anything to do with today. In addition, I don't think SEC wrestling programs were given a choice to start women's wrestling or die, and then chose to die. The almost complete death of NCAA Men's Gymnastics was about the ease of cutting it to comply with Title IX and certainly not about the lack of a female equivalent (212 Men's Gymnastics programs cut while just 18 remain).
The idea wrestling has a current race or gender problem is laughable. I prefer to speak about the year 2016 and not the 1800's. This year I traveled to Iowa for Big Ten's, New York for the NCAA championships, and then back to Iowa for the Olympic Trials. It was an incredible stretch. I watched men & women compete of all races. Loud standing ovations were received for their accolades, just as they should be. You can also clearly see that there are no socioeconomic barriers to wrestling success as there are in some other (clearly more expensive) sports. Opportunities in wrestling are there for everybody, sans some rigged matches in Rio.
Women's wrestling is growing, slowly. The spread out American population is a challenge for young females to compete regularly, but growing numbers will continue to alleviate this issue. The NCAA has yet to declare women's wrestling a sport, which is a far more serious barrier. This is the same institution that won't hold events in North Carolina, but will gladly in Cuba & China.
If people are looking for causes for detrimental social issues, wrestling is certainly nowhere near relevant. The divide and conquer attitude should be saved for MSNBC.

Dellin Betances is making his pitch for Manny Machado.
The Yankees reliever told Bryan Hoch of MLB.com on Tuesday that he is hopeful the team signs the free agent slugger because he believes Machado would be a difference-maker.
"I think he'll put us over the top," Betances said. "We were short last year. Things could have gone our way, but they didn't. ... Our lineup is already impactful, so adding a guy like that would be pretty crazy."
GM Brian Cashman has stated that starting pitching is the priority this offseason, but the Yankees were reportedly seeking background information on Machado earlier this week.
SNY's Andy Martino reported earlier this offseason that the Yankees were "lukewarm" on Machado after some of his antics in the postseason but also reported the Yankees are more likely to pursue Machado than Harper and are "ready to pounce" if the market doesn't get out of hand.
Machado is expected to seek a deal north of 10 years, $300 million but Cashman left the door open to possibly trying to stay under the luxury tax threshold for a second consecutive year, raising doubts on whether or not the Yankees are serious about Machado.
The Yankees also have a more imminent need with starting pitching, whereas they have Rookie of the Year runner-up Miguel Andujar at third base.
Machado played shortstop with the Dodgers and could play there on the Yankees but it could be temporary until Didi Gregorius returns from Tommy John surgery.

Its almost never about technology. Many companies that are built on tech believe that its the tech that enabled them to succeed. This is almost never true I know, Im biased. Its marketing and stories and connection and tribes and commitment and structure that build businesses. The technology is essential, but its not nearly enough.

Vintage Davy Crockett
I bought a vintage Davy Crockett costume pattern on etsy a few weeks ago, and then got ahold of some gorgeous Essex Linen (in Camel), and gave up on finding nice vinyl or leather fringe, and accepted the faux stuff they sell at Joann. Luckily it came together really well, and the boy-o woke up today (his birthday), and found this complete costume awaiting...
He's actually using it to play "Woods Runner" (because he loved the book by Gary Paulsen), not Davy, but that's the joy of costumes, right?
the fringe was stiff and icky feeling, so we washed and dried it really quickly this morning, hence the wrinkles, but the essex is so soft and wonderful, that he's loving it.
the tough faces are due entirely to his needing to hide from the Hessians and Redcoats, not because he's unhappy about the costume or photos. Fully in character.
my first block
I was SO inspired by this GORGEOUS blanket, I decided I had to have one. I don't have $990 to spend on a blanket, so I'm gonna make my own. My goal is 1 block a week. More if I can...
I got this awesome book at the library, and I made my wonderfully patient and loving husband look at ALL the blocks with me to choose the one he liked best.
He liked this one. #189 (sorry, the picture is upside down!)
It's called "Willow"
I decided to do blues, greens, browns, and cherry, with natural wool as the border on all of them... so each block will have brown/tan/cherry in the middle, and a blue/green/teal color next, then white on the outside...
like this:
I realized after wetting and pinning that I should have sewn in the ends first... oops.
oh well, given that this will take about 3 years (averaging 1/week), I think I'll have time to hide the ends and reblock it.
For my first block, I think it's quite nice!
My aunt's bookshelf...
Using my Xmas presents!
I had pepsi at lunch (caffeine), and wine after dinner (poor
judgement) so instead of going to bed early I stayed up and tested one
of my Xmas books. Tasty Crochet sure offers tasty treats! My kiddos
need more play food, so I asked Santa for this book. I made the apple
tonight, and it came out rather small. More like a homegrown apple
than a store bought apple. Which is fine. I'm sure D will appreciate
it. My red is not showing up nicely here, but it is a candy apple red
rather than a fire engine red. Still appley though, not weird orangy
brown red like the picture shows.
Joanns is having a yarn sale right now, so I think I'll take the
little monster (L), and get some more colors of wool. I seem to have
oodles of blue yarn in my stash, but that's not particularly helpful
when trying to make play food...

This June, you have the opportunity to join artist Karen Vernon and explore the beauty and splendor of Guatemala. Discover some of the world's most inspiring settings… the many layered textures and colors of Guatemala are an artist's heaven and a traveler's dream. The people and the culture will weave their way into your heart as you explore the ruins of the early Maya civilizations and the small villages where the indigenous population live, speak, dress and practice their religion as they did hundreds of years ago. The markets, the feel of Spanish Colonial, and the colorful countryside will all make you want to return again and again.
We stay at the most unique, luxurious hotels and dine on the finest cuisine (including the "typical" indigenous fare); travel the country in first class motor coaches with the best drivers and guides (all connected by cell phone and radios); comfortable seats, lots of room and viewing windows are the order of the day. Visit the "must see" as well as private venues that are not seen or experienced by others.
About the Artist
Karen Vernon is a very active painter. She has been painting in watercolor, oil, pastel or acrylics since her childhood. She has worked with watercolor for over 50 years and her skill in this medium is demonstrated in each of her painting, which are a visual enchantment of color and light. She is constantly seeking to interpret life around her and depicts her images in vibrant, often oversized images.
As a professional artist with a worldwide market, she has achieved notable recognition. Karen was invited to show her work in a three year traveling museum exhibition entitled "Sea to Shining Sea". She was one of only 47 artists selected to participate in this major project honoring our country. Her paintings hang in museum collections in Europe and in the United States, as well as private and corporate collections, such as the Royal Family of Saudi, Delta Airlines, the Chateu de Vuilliens, the National PGA Headquarters, the Moody Gardens resort Hotel, and the Walt Disney Corporation. She has been elected to the Birmingham Watercolour Society of Birmingham, U.K., is in Who's Who in American Art, Strathmore's Who's Who, and holds a signature membership in the Texas Watercolor Society and the Watercolor Art Society – Houston.
Karen Vernon is the founder of ACT, Artist Changing Tomorrow, a fundraiser to maintain and sustain art education.
"Vernon's strong command of color contrast and remarkable control of detail lies at the base of her expressions of the love of nature and deepest human values"…Calvin Goodman, Los Angeles, CA.
"…her investigation of light and pattern is evident and her renderings, sophisticated." The Chronicle Independent, Houston

After breakfast we will get an early start today. We need to be checked out and on the bus by 7:30 for our scenic drive to Comalapa. This village has become an important center of naïf painting largely due to Andrés Curruchich, whose paintings are in galleries the world over. In the main plaza do not miss the famous colonial cathedral (1564) that is frequently depicted in the naïf paintings. Though severely damaged in the 1976 earthquake, the facade still overlooks the plaza. To the right of it is the new brick church, completed in 1986, of similar size and style in yellow and white, with fine carved doors and an interesting wood ceiling but never appears in the primitive paintings. Today is market day in Comalapa. Enjoy the colors, the people, and let your senses run free. Here Karen my do a demo in the amidst of the Maya specators.

North Texas kids and their parents can now feel a little more relaxed watching movies together. With animated films like Zootopia and Finding Dory hauling in more than $1 billion each at box offices worldwide, Plano-based Cinemark has rolled out the beanbags for younger viewers.
Its new kid-friendly concept, Camp Cinemark, features colorful seating options such as oversized cushioned chairs, soft-covered chaise lounges and high-back rockers, and floor-style beanbags.
The first Camp Cinemark opened in November at the Cinemark Allen 16 and XD theater at 921 State Highway 121 in Allen.
The location "has always been one of our top-attended theaters for family movies," says Bryan Jeffries, vice president of marketing. "Combine that fact with the recent addition of electric recliners in every auditorium, and we took advantage of that remodel time to add this new feature to the theater."
Jeffries says Cinemark is always on the lookout for ways to enhance the moviegoing experience. Some of its theater offer day care for kids while the parents watch a movie. Camp Cinemark may be a good next step, he says, because it gives kids a chance to play before enjoying a moviegoing experience with their parents.
"Parents can actually sit at the back of auditorium and ask their children if they want to go down front and sit on a bean bag," he says. "It's that kind of freedom for the kids. But it's not wide open, kids running everywhere. We still want parents to watch their kids and kids to watch the movie."
An area outside the auditorium has an interactive coloring wall, tables and a mock cave for the kids to crawl in and out of, Jeffries says, while the inside of the auditorium has traditional movie seats along with chaise lounges and beanbag chairs made of spill-friendly materials.
"The kid-friendly push reflects the increasing importance of the family audience as Hollywood studios spend heavily on animated films," according to a Cinemark press release.
And while the camp concept appears a little less stuffy than standard theater seating, there are still a few rules for campers.

"No running, horseplay, wandering around, jumping, standing on seats, or other monkey business while the movie is playing at Camp Cinemark," the theater's website says. "All campers need to stay on the straight and narrow!"
Camp Cinemark seats about 100 viewers, Jeffries says, but for those who prefer the traditional movie experience, the same family friendly film will, in most cases, be screening in one of the location's other 15 auditoriums. The response to Camp Cinemark has been amazing, he says, with the kids enjoying the interactive wall and the beanbag chairs.
"We still expect kids to watch the movie," he says. "But we're just making that experience a little more fun. The parents really enjoy taking their kids to a theater that is a little more tolerant of kids being kids."

God's Salvation Covers Over Even the Worst of Sins
Sometimes a person you evangelize is convinced that he is too sinful to be forgiven. He feels that he is at the head of the line of serious sinners. Though God may forgive others, He cannot forgive him.
A good passage to tuck away in your mind to help this person is 1 Timothy 1:15. Although he may feel like he is the most sinful person that has lived, he is not. That position has already been filled. It is filled by the Apostle Paul. "This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief." Two things are worth noting about this passage.
Some would say that Paul is simply being modest, but the context indicates this is not the case. In verse 13, Paul calls himself a "blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious." He was a blasphemer because he not only denied the Lord Jesus Himself, but he also forced others to do the same. When they would not, he persecuted them by injuring them and casting them into jail. The term "injurious" describes one who is an insolent man who, in his uplifted pride, heaps insults upon others and does them shameful acts of wrong. Had Paul's intentions succeeded, he would have wiped out the fledgling church.
Another reason that we ought to let Paul's statement stand is that he does not say that he was the chief of sinners, but that he is the chief. Even though Paul had received forgiveness and the office of Apostle, he continued to place himself in the position of the foremost of sinners. The following verse then says, "Nevertheless, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them who should hereafter believe on Him to life everlasting." God converted Paul who led the list of sinners that all others might know that they too could be forgiven. Since he, the chief of sinners, obtained mercy, all other sinners can be certain of the longsuffering of God as well.
Next time you meet someone who is convinced that he cannot be forgiven, take him to 1 Timothy 1:15–16. Show him that God forgave Paul to assure him that He would forgive him.

CS Package module aims to explore the fields of typography, literature, digital production etc. We will discover how digital practices can feature and enhance our work as well as learn about expressionists typefaces, illustrative typography and calligrams – poems arranged in a way that it creates an image.
When it comes to digital package like Adobe Illustrator, I am not even taking baby steps but I still crawl. Being taught basics helped me tremendously as it broke the barrier I kind of had with Adobe applications. I have been practicing a lot independently and making a progress. For instance the featured image I have made from scratch in Illustrator then printed off on a tracing paper and taken a picture with the computer background which had a picture of one of my paintings on and voila!
On one of the sessions we have made a expressionist typeface mash up. It may look simple however I found the process complex as there was a lot to take in.
I have researched few different expressionists typefaces. Here are my favourite.
The last one is amazing as it's 3D.
Another task was to create a illutrative typefaces. My group was given letters B, F, H, T and Y. The theme was means of transport.
Letter B and F. Yes donkeys are used as a form of transport.
Letter H (stilts) and T.
The key in this exercise is to make sure that the letters are readable. Me as usual focused to much on thinking of good ideas rather that the execution of it.
Let me show you two examples of illustrative typography by 2&3 illustrators. Mine looks totally silly right next to it but hey if i could do this I wouldn't need this course.
The technique they have used is called quilling which is the art of rolling narrow strips of paper into coils or scrolls and arranging them to form elegant filigree.
You can check out their work any many more on links below.
