Hotels That Give Back
In the travel industry, Memorial Day Weekend marks the start of the busiest travel season of the year. While many of us were grilling, floating on the lake, or simply enjoying the quiet three-day weekend, we hopefully found a few moments to pause and either silently or publicly thank those who died while serving our country.
While serving each of us.
Giving what they could for this country - and for those of us who are privileged to call it home.
With my mind on service and summer travel, I started thinking about hotels and other hospitality organizations who give back to their communities. Many of us will be traveling during the next three months and may already have favorite hotels, inns or rentals. But, if you find yourself researching the perfect place to stay, perhaps consider a place that has a strong philanthropic policy - where at least a few of your dollars spent will help someone else.
There are so many hotels with employee volunteer programs, sustainability policies, etc. So many! This is by no means even the beginning of a comprehensive list (it's only three properties!). But the three below seem to have created something special. Created something so unique or soul-filled it made me want to go to their websites and learn more - and perhaps book a summer vacation.
I think each is a creative great example of the different ways the hospitality industry can influence and be a part of their communities.
Note: I have not stayed at or visited any of these properties. This is just the information I found while looking for hotels that give back.
506 Lofts - Nashville
506 Lofts opened in 2016 and is in the heart of downtown Nashville, one block from the Ryman Auditorium and two blocks from Broadway, the music-filled epicenter of Nashville. This 135+-year-old building houses five rooms and combines local history + local materials + local artists. Thus, this is probably a property that is more for the Airbnb type traveler who loves local!. It's not full-service, but is filled with history and creativity.
For every stay, they give back 5% to surrounding Nashville homeless shelters, either to the Nashville Rescue Mission or Room in the Inn.
The owners employed local craftsmen to furnish the rooms and commissioned local artists to provide the art. And the rooms tell a story. The Monkey Bar loft (above) is named after the food counter in Harvey's Department Store that was at 506 Church St. from the 1940s to the 1980s - the name of each loft ties back to the history of the building or the area.
So, by employing local craftsmen and artists and helping the homeless, I think this tiny place makes a big difference. And I love that "GIVING" is right there on their site's navigation bar.
The Good Hotel London
I am blown away by the Good Hotel London. Their mission statement includes,
"Premium hospitality with a cause."
Here is what premium hospitality with a cause looks like at the Good Hotel London . . .
Developed by the Good Hotel Group, this 148-room hotel was designed and built in Amsterdam in 2015 as a pop-up social enterprise project. In the fall of 2016, the 8 million kilo hotel was put onto a submersible barge and moved to London. And for the next five years, it will live on the River Thames in London at the Royal Victoria Docks. One of its aims is to give opportunities to those who are struggling to find employment.
I think this hotel is fabulous and fascinating. I have fallen in love with it.
The Good Hotel says, "We want to redefine the model of how business is done - combining doing business with doing good and quality."
We want to redefine the model of how business is done - combining doing business with doing good and quality.
They are local. They source their ingredients, materials, and labor locally. They upcycle and are committed to sustainability. This is good, but keep reading.
For every room that you book through their website, they donate 5 pounds per night to the organization Ninos de Guatemala. That's about $6.40 USD per night per room - not bad!
But keep reading. . .
3. Approximately 30% of their employees are (were) long-term unemployed locals. The Good Group finds these individuals, gives them hospitality training followed by on-the-job-training and a full-time position at the hotel with a full-time salary and continued support. After a certain number of months, they leave the program and work in the area and a new group starts.
And, it sounds like it is such a do-good concept that the experience would suffer, but it appears not. They have all-day dining in The Living Room, event/meeting space and a community work space. They feature London craft beers, a rooftop garden bar and four different types of rooms, most with a view or the River Thames. Free wi-fi, 24-hour concierge and free iPad use for guests. And, to make all of that even more special......every penny the hotel makes is reinvested.
Omni Hotels & Resorts - North America
Most of the large hotel chains have some sort of policy where they donate or volunteer within the communities where they have hotels. But the Say Goodnight to Hunger campaign at Omni Hotels & Resorts seems bigger and deeper than most. It launched almost a year ago: when a guest books room directly at OmniHotels.com, the company promises to feed a family of four - that's four meals.
A family of four !
Omni works with Feeding America and obviously engages their employees to play a large part in the program, it really is impressive. Omni has over 60 properties across North America, so chances are you will find yourself in one of their cities. Also, I love the fact that the dollars/meals affect families in need in the 42 communities where Omni Hotels & Resorts operate.
I think perhaps what makes this program seem so special is the employee involvement. Now maybe these employees just do really well for the cameras, but I don't think so.
I also found this video which I thought was simply delightful.
These three companies obviously take great pride in their programs - as they should! What is interesting and perhaps the current trend is that they don't just give back, but they enable you the guest to be a part of giving back.
If you stay with one of these or any property that is proud of how they give back, I hope you have that feel-good feeling. If so, maybe take a minute and thank one of the employees - at the very least, I bet it will remind them to be proud to be part of an industry that serves.

I'm not great with tools. I'm awkward with a hammer, I can never get the pliers to stay in the right setting, and ask me to use the cordless drill without supervision - well, I'm hopeless.
But the more home improvement projects I work on, the more I realize how important it is to have an arsenal of quality tools on hand. If you have a home that you plan on doing lots of updated on, having the right tools is even more important. So, here are some tools I'm learning I can't live without, and some recommendations on how you can round out your own DIY tool box:
Stud Finder - I think I've mentioned this one before, but I really really love stud finders. They make hanging pictures, shelves, and whatever so much easier. All you have to do is drag the flat tool across the wall until it beeps, that's where your stud is.
I'm sad to have just found out that the house I just moved in to, a house from the early 1900's, is not stud finder friendly. It's an older lath and plaster constructed home, which according to my smart builder friends, won't allow you to use a stud finder. Total bummer!
Staple Gun - Just got my first staple gun, and it's already coming to good use. I reupholstered a small stool I salvaged from the thrift store with a great new fabric. It also comes in handy for lots of other little jobs around the house.
Cordless Drill - Whether you are framing a wall, building furniture, or, like I once used it for, creating drainage holes in the bottom of some pots, you're going to be so happy to have a cordless drill. You have to make sure you have one battery charging while you are using the other, but the convenience of this tool is unparalleled. Along with the drill, I also recommend getting a good set of bits for your drill, that way you'll be set for any project that comes you way.
A Great Pair of Gloves -Don't be afraid to spend a few more dollars the next time you're at a hardware store to outfit yourself with some quality hand protection. A good pair of gloves will help you through gardening, demolition, framing, and just about any other house project you can think of.
Some other tools you might want to consider are torpedo levels for projects involving leveling awkward small spaces (plus this small level will fit in your pocket), a jig saw, a ratcheting screwdriver, and you'd be surprised how often you might need a rubber mallet.
Another smart option for investing in more expensive tools is to consider buying reconditioned tools. The team over at OneProject Closer .com has done a good job of putting together links to many different tool companies that provide this option. Often refurbished tools are just as good as brand new ones, they just have a lower price.
And, as I mentioned in an older post about renting tools, you may be lucky enough to live near a tool library where you can rent tools for free. Or at least a Home Depot where you can pay to rent tools.
With all the right home improvement tools, you'll be prepared for anything that comes your way this spring during your remodeling adventures.

The food delights of Malta
I always had a love affair with food. In a sentence, I would refer to food as 'one of the three pleasures of life' (will leave it up to you to guess the other two), and my favourite cuisine was always from the Southern Italian regions especially that of Puglia; simple, fresh, wholesome and oozing flavour!
The way they cook fish, their cheeses and pasta are simply to die for!
But I also am a great fan of certain dishes which are synonymous with Malta, such as Timpana which being a lover of pasta and pastry comes as no surprise to love this dish having them both as the core ingredients. Basically a Timpana is a pasta casserole with a juicy succulent Bolognese sauce with a pastry covering on top and baked in the oven. A variation of this dish is Imqarrun which is basically the same dish without the pastry topping.
Now the list of Maltese dishes is very vast and some are even a variation or at times, an exact copy with a Maltese tint from other countries, particularly Italy and the UK. Think Roast Pork on Sundays with some Maltese people even taking their joint to the baker for it to be cooked in his oven. It is a fact that the baker's oven gives off a better flavour to the meat dish. So seeing that this blog cannot mention all the typical Maltese dishes, I shall only mention the ones which I am very fond of.
So; another dish which I love to indulge in, is Bragioli. This is basically minced beef, bacon garlic and breadcrumbs wrapped with thin slices of beef. Some even put hard boiled eggs in the stuffing but i prefer to eat them without since the eggs would otherwise have been cooked twice. In English they are called Beef Olives and whilst there are no olives in them, the word 'olive' comes from the old English verb, 'to olive' meaning 'to roll it up'. Bragioli are best served with a mouth-watering tomato and carrot sauce and accompanied with roasted potatoes. Have plenty of scrumptious Maltese bread at the ready to dip into the sauce.
As mentioned, I simply adore a pie; meat pies in particular! Pity that such awesome fare is fattening. I would be eating them every day instead of twice or thrice a year if they were not. But I do have to mention one particular pie which is perhaps typically Maltese from time immemorial – Spinach and Tuna Pie!
Both spinach and tuna are very popular in Malta and therefore it is only naturally that the industrious Maltese housewife concocted ages ago a wholesome and very comforting dish using both of these ingredients. The flavour of this pie is further enhanced with anchovies, olives and of course garlic. When the Lampuki fish is in season, it replaces tuna. Most Maltese simply cannot eat enough of the popular and tasty Lampuki Pie.
At be.Hotel, our hotel restaurant Fornelli, organises a Maltese Cuisine Buffet evening every Wed and one can enjoy the many delights of typical Maltese dishes which, some are traditional and others given a more modern twist, by our Head Chef and his brigade.
Come and enjoy!
James Davis is the COO of Bay Street Group that operates be.HOTEL

So Monday morning we all headed out (along with Matt's girlfriend, Sasha, and her dad) to have some fun - and, boy was it! After getting hitched into our harnesses and a little safety demonstration we were left to conquer the course.
|This was all that kept me from falling to my death...
I was amazed at my complete lack of fear as I launched myself off the platform and glided across the forest below. My first few landings weren't too graceful, but I soon learned how to land on my feet.
|Me climbing one of the platforms.
|See me way over the other side? I think I stuck that landing.
The best station was the last one, the "Tarzan". You have to jump off the platform, free fall for several feet before being caught by the cable and then slammed into a giant cargo net that you have to grab and then climb up. Cool! I also discovered by my sore muscles the following day, this was also a very good workout!
|Matt on the free fall of the Tarzan
|Slam! Into the net!
|Now climb up the net.
|David attempting the rings
|We made it!

Letters to the Editor
Viewpoint: Journey to improve Paso water continues
Paso Robles has been pursuing Nacimiento water since 1991. The city first committed to bring Nacimiento water to town in 1992.\Through the '90s project feasibility, pipeline route and environmental studies were completed. Between 2000 and 2004 Paso Robles worked with sister agencies to develop a partnership to construct, operate and fund the project.
In July 2004, a contract was executed and water user fees approved to help pay for it. Initially, the rate plan called for $6 per month increasing by $6 per month every year until we reached $36 per month.
In early 2007, project cost estimates were refined indicating a need to increase the maximum monthly charge from the planned $36 to $60.
Pursuant to a July 2006 California Supreme Court ruling, this rate modification was introduced through the Proposition 218 protest ballot process. Only 109 protests were received (out of 10,000+). However, a referendum petition containing 1,445 signatures (just 10 percent of voters) was received. The city honored the petitioners' request to consider a different rate structure — one that was based entirely on consumption (i.e., no fixed monthly amount).
A consumption-based rate was presented October 2007. Only 1,270 protest ballots were filed. However, opponents urged the city to commission a third-party professional rate study. So, Kennedy Jenks Consultants was engaged in January 2008. Once the rate study was completed, rates were again proposed — this time a combined fixed/consumption based formula — in July 2008.
And again, responding to citizen concerns, the city suspended consideration just a few months later to develop a more modest plan. The "pay-as-you-go" plan — an eight-year phased rate built around smaller staged improvements with cash only (no loans) — was introduced September 2008. Another protest ballot yielded less than 1,800 protests. But a change in the law limiting rate plans to five years was implemented in January 2009, and another referendum petition (signed by just 11 percent of registered voters) was filed.
After two years presenting four different rate proposals, the city, noting that the question is not whether to pay but how, and facing the prospect of developing yet another plan only to be opposed again by a small minority, decided it was time to call an election.
The election drew only 37 percent (5,371) of 14,563 registered voters. The rate plan was not approved by a margin of 471 votes.
So, the 18-year journey to improve Paso Robles water continues. Clearly, additional steps are needed to develop understanding, and understanding is the beginning of approving. We begin in December.
Jim App is city manager of Paso Robles.

15 quotes for some extra motivation when the going gets tough/
I was running at the track a couple of weeks ago.
It was my first interval session in a few weeks and I was running around 1 minute 35 seconds per lap.
I had never run faster than 1:30 for a lap since starting to run again after being chronically ill.
And as I was running my final 400m lap, I decided it would be fun if I could manage sub 1:30.
In the first 50m, I started to think I couldn't do it.
I had been pushing quite a bit in the other intervals – so how could I suddenly think I could go faster?
And in that moment I made a decision to push the negative self-talk out of my mind.
So for the rest of the 400m, the only things I told myself were that I could do it, that I would run sub 1:30, that it was within reach and that I was really enjoying it all.
As I finished the lap and stopped my watch, I saw that my time for that 400m was 1:28.
I had achieved what in the beginning the little voice in my head was telling me was impossible.
I was happy that I ran 1:28, but more than anything, I really took it as a reminder that in life, negative self-talk won't get us anywhere.
And on the contrary, keeping positive can help drive us forward.
I really believe that in many things, the only thing telling us we can't do it is that little voice in our heads.
And if we manage to change what that voice is telling us, the possibilities are endless.
So for this week, I decided to gather 15 quotes for some extra motivation to help you achieve what you want to achieve, especially when the going gets tough.
1. "Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right."
- Henry Ford
2. "In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can."
- Nikos Kazantzakis
3. "People who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."
- Rob Siltanen
4. "Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me."
- Carol Burnett
5. "The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me."
- Ayn Rand
6. "You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream."
- C.S. Lewis
7. "Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
- Mark Twain
8. "Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great."
- John D. Rockefeller
9. "The secret of getting ahead is getting started."
- Mark Twain
10. "It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop."
- Confucius
11. "If you fell down yesterday, stand up today."
- H. G. Wells
12. "Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm."
- Winston Churchill
13. "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
- Steve Jobs
14. "Against all odds and despite all the obstacles, we are going to make it."
- Marilyn Monroe
15. "The urge to quit will be greatest just before you are about to succeed."
– John Assaraf
Hope you enjoyed reading these quotes and I hope they give you some extra motivation the next time the going gets tough.
And are there any quotes you love which I didn't include in this post? Let me know – I'd love to hear more motivational quotes :)

Over 330 people have been poisoned in the southern Polish region of Silesia after using designer drugs.
Most have used the drug sold on the Polish market as Mocarz ("the Mighty One").
"The drug has been on the Polish market for some years, although it is only now that it has caused so much damage," Artur Malczewski from the National Bureau for Drug Prevention told Radio Poland.
The reason behind the sudden spike in casualties is twofold, Malczewski explained. Firstly because of the introduction of a new law making many of these substances illegal in Poland, producers increased the dose in the products to get rid of inventory.
In order to avoid being caught by authorities selling such products following the law's introduction on 1 July, shops also sold them for as little as PLN 4-5 (EUR 1-1.25), Malczewski said.
The drug authorities that have been investigating the composition of these designer drugs – which look like loose leaf green tea and can be smoked like marijuana – found they are laced with a synthetic cannabinoid that is up to 800-times stronger than marijuana.
Malczewski also said that "the hands of the police are tied" in terms of halting the sale of such products, as they are sold as "collector's items", and are clearly labelled as "not for human consumption". However, the expert stressed, "everyone knows what they are".
From a legal standpoint, as soon as lawmakers introduce laws to curb a particular strain of synthetic chemicals, manufacturers come up with a slightly different formula which is not banned, and are therefore allowed to sell them.

Mulching the Not-So-Easy Way in Spring
Views: 342
Saturday…and it's raining…again. Everything is gray and green. The sky is a light, wet gray; the tree trunks are a dark, wet, gray; the lichen on the tree trunks is a light gray-green; pond is a muddy green; the moss on the forest floor is a bright, almost luminescent green. It's early spring in southern Indiana.
There must be some unwritten law that it must rain every weekend. As if we gardeners haven't been tortured and tantalized enough…we made it through the winter, but now? Mother Nature should be more kind to us! We're on Her side, after all!
I did take off work early one day last week to enjoy the warmth and sunshine of a rare 70+ degree day. Wonderful Husband and I moved a pile of mulch that had been sitting and quietly decomposing since last fall. It is wonderful stuff now.
We hitched our cart to our new John Deere yard tractor and journeyed down the hill to the pile of mulch. After shoveling the mulch into tubs, we hefted the tubs up into the cart and the Deere moved it up the hill for us (thank goodness for horsepower!).
Then, of course, we had to man-handle the heavy tubs out of the cart and empty the mulch into the garden beds. Wonderful Husband got slightly enthusiastic when it came to emptying the tubs…in other words, he dumped it. No regard to whether a plant was going to be smothered by 10 to 15 pounds of mulch. It was up to me to carefully brush away the extra mulch and locate the poor, lost little plant underneath. Certain muscles that I generally use to sit upon were screaming the next day.
Living out in the country, we get our mulch the easy way. We contact a tree trimming service and let them know that they can dump a load (or two or three) of wood chips on the back of our lot. We can't use the fresh wood chips as mulch in our garden beds – the natural decomposition process would rob the beds of the nitrogen the plants need to grow and be green. When it's fresh, we just use it on pathways.
But, after a winter's worth of decomposition (sometimes, you can see the steam rising from the wood chip pile as the decomposition process heats it up), the wood chips have become mulch and are ready for the garden beds. The annual application of mulch is helping turn what was nasty clay into decent garden soil. A new layer of 3 inches of mulch also makes weed control easier and conserves moisture in the soil during dry spells.
Before we spread the mulch, I removed any early weeds and cleaned up fallen branches and dead stalks. I made a dent in the billions of gum balls which fell during the winter, but any time there's a good wind, a billion more appear. For now, at least, the beds look neat and clean and ready for Real Spring…. if it ever arrives!
Stay Green, Good Friends!

I don't know about you, but I quite enjoy a good road trip. There's something to be said for the freedom of hopping in the car and enjoying a relaxing ride with your favourite music in the background. Even on little road trips to my nearby family cottage, the journey there is what makes the getaway in my opinion. Here are a few things I've learned about road tripping as a solo:
Like all happy wanderers I sure do like to mosey at leisure, but it's always a good idea to plan your route ahead of time. CAA Members have the ever-popular TripTik® at their disposal. Use them to plan a route and even your stops along the way.
I once took a road trip from Ottawa to Saratoga Springs, New York. A relaxed drive through the Adirondack Mountains turned into 11 hours of pure entertainment. There were comfort stops, food stops, shopping and those ever popular Kodak moments.
I am often asked, "So where should I go on my next vacation?" I always answer with the same key question: "What do you love?" It's incredible what happens when you combine your solo journey with something you love. Take food for example. Exploring the cuisine options of your stop overs or even participating in local cooking classes are great ways to spice up your travel plans. Not a fan of planning ahead? Wineries make great drop-in destinations as do museums and flea markets.
Read up on where you're headed. I'm a firm believer that there's something to see everywhere, even in the tiniest of towns. Stop by local tourist offices for the small town stuff and for state and province-wide maps and TourBooks®, pop by your CAA Store.
Expect the unexpected and don't worry about it when menial problems arise. The best part of travelling solo is having no one to answer to but your inner travel voice. Stay an extra night or grab a last-minute ticket to see a show and allow yourself to take a wrong turn! The very best part of any trip is always the lasting memories made from the strangest surprises.
Happy Travels,
Tina Richardson

Ikea, the world's largest furniture retailer, lured more than 680 million people through its doors last year. Assuming they weren't repeat customers, that's nearly 10% of the world's population.
On Wednesday, Ikea reported €29.29 billion ($33.3 billion) in sales in fiscal 2014, up from €28.5 billion ($32.4 billion) the year before, and net profit that's up 0.4% at €3.33 billion ($3.79 billion). The seller of flat pack sofas, quirky chairs and candy-colored lampshades even held its own in Europe, which despite being in the grips of an economic slowdown generates almost 70% of the company's sales. "North America performed well and while the challenging economic situation may not be over, Europe continued to show improvements," the company said in a statement. "An especially positive sign was the growth in most of southern Europe where Portugal did particularly well and the situation in Spain is improving quite quickly."
The Swedish company, founded by 88-year-old billionaire Ingvar Kamprad when he was just a teenager, knows us (almost) better than we know ourselves and – for the most part – has maintained its friendly, quirky image while U.S. big-box retailers like Wal-Mart Stores Inc. WMT, +0.30% grapple with criticism about working conditions and low pay. Even the most hard-nosed consumer advocates get gooey when you mention Ikea.
"Ikea is one of my favorite stores in the world," says Edgar Dworsky, founder of ConsumerWorld.org, a weekly consumer newsletter. "I was disappointed when they pulled out of a plan to build one literally across the street from me in Somerville, Mass."
Read: And the most unpopular company in America is…
Here are 5 ways Ikea keeps customers buying:
We're way too chill to pummel you with door busters
Ikea doesn't scream at customers with big red price stickers. But it finds other ways to make sure consumers go home with bags full of stuff they didn't know they wanted. "Ikea's famous yellow and blue bags are there to entice you to shop more than you need," says Johan Stenebo, a former Ikea employee and author of "The Truth About Ikea." They are known as "Ingvar's Bag" and were the founder's idea, he says. If you forget to pick up a bag at the entrance, you will find one at regular spots along your route. Next are dirt-cheap "open-your-wallet" items like nightlight candles or a toilet brush. "These items appear soon after you walk into the store," he says. "The sales pitch starts immediately."
But our 'punch in the jaw' offers will grab you
Stores like Ikea have unusual terms for different product lines, and Ikea doesn't pull its punches, Stenebo says. These "punch-on-the-jaw" items are those sold aggressively on the floor. In this case, the customer genuinely gets a great deal, but it could be at the expense of pushing these products off their rivals' shelves permanently. For Ikea, notable examples include mirrors in the 1980s and low-energy light bulbs in the 1990s. In both cases, he says, Ikea delivered a knock-out blow to the competition. Stenebo worked at Ikea from 1988 to 2008 in a variety of roles from product development to management, and he is a former assistant to the group's founder.
Forget your troubles in our maze-away-from-home
Martha Stewart and the film sets of director Nancy Meyers owe much to Ikea's minimalist aesthetic. For anyone who feels inadequate about their less-than-perfect home, Ikea offers a dream that appears within your price point. "The big reason you buy things you don't need is because you want to comfort yourself, perhaps because of problems with your spouse or employer or your kids," Stenebo says. Ikea takes you by the hand around its maze through all of its departments, allows you to rest at what he calls "hot-hot-hot" spots — actually, a comfortable rest area where Ikea places items it wants to get rid of — and rewards you with meatballs after you make your purchases so you feel warm and full when you leave.
The cheap stuff makes our expensive items look good
Retailers like Ikea specialize in selling discount furniture that you have to assemble yourself, but they wouldn't make so much money if everyone bought the cheapest item on display. So store planners craftily place items that it knows many people won't want to buy near more expensive items so the latter look too good to refuse. "This sofa may have a limited variety of covers or be too uncomfortable or tacky to put in your home," Stenebo says, "so you choose the more expensive sofa right next to it instead, believing that you chose it independently.
Buying too much is fun! We'll help you make room…
It's not just Ikea: Pottery Barn, Home Depot HD, +0.61% and Target TGT, +0.67% have also helped turn "storage solutions" into a shopping experience. These usually take the form of a beautifully designed basket, tub or tote to put your all your stuff in when you've finished playing with it — allowing you to stash what you bought on previous visits to Ikea. They have barely pronounceable names and, like many last-minute extras sold at Ikea, they're not cheap: Try the black and plaid "Kvarnvik" hatboxes ($16.99 for a set of three), straw "Knipsa" seagrass basket ($14.99) or "Kottebo" basket ($16.99) made of coconut palm leaf. They evoke images of a New England vacation home or Danish lakeside retreat rather than a garage filled with rubbish.

Join Stefan Mumaw for an in-depth discussion in this video Identifying rut types, part of Breaking Out of a Rut.
A rut is simply muscle memory that manifests in our daily actions. Our immediate future and our life pursuits. The first step to getting out of a rut. Is to identify what kind of rut you're in. Or more importantly, what kind of rut you want to bust. While there are nuances on the periphery of each, let's focus on the short term, mid term, and long term ruts. Short term ruts are ones of daily repetition. They usually manifest as a series of unconscious choices that lead to similar executional results.
If you're a designer, you may find you're constantly using the same fonts, or designing in the same grid structures. If you're an artist you may find you're attracted to the same color palettes repeatedly or you rarely stray from the same type of application instrument. They can also show up as patterns of behaviour or routines of process. Truthfully most ruts are short term ruts. The key to busting short term ruts is engaging in short term experiences. Midterm ruts however, require more investigation. Have you ever returned from a conference or vacation and felt especially motivated to enact positive change in your life? Perhaps you wanted to improve in a certain area or pick up a new skill.
So you took the immediate actionable steps to reach that lofty goal knowing you wouldn't reach it right away. We often think about long term objectives and we create short term actions to get there, but few of us ever think about the middle. The middle consists of a combination of larger steps you can take, as well as shorter goals you can achieve to help meet your long term goals. These mid-term directives require a bit of planning but usually don't require extensive life changes to achieve. If short term rut busting involves steps to reach a goal, mid term rut busting involves strides that are both strides and goals.
Then there's long term rut busting. We actually engage in the practice of long term rut busting every year on January 1st. You know it as a tradition of New Year's Resolutions. Resolutions are long term goals you set for yourself. Changes you'd like to see in your life. They're easy to set and difficult to keep because you rarely set a plan in place to achieve these goals. You simply fill out the wish list and hope for the best. To make resolutions stick, you have to be willing to make significant change. Not just willing to accept the benefit that change will produce.
There are goals that require an actionable plan, accountability, and faith that the journey is worth it. What kind of rut do you want to bust?
The course is more resource than classroom, designed to be something you can return to each and every time you feel stuck on a project or stalled in your career. Come back anytime you need help taking a creative leap forward.

Excellent for the cost benefit ratio
Although it is a guitar from the cheapest Martin line, made in Mexico, the 00LX1AE has a perfect finish and a very good sound. Electrical pickup quality and unique design very interesting. A good choice for musicians of all levels, especially as a second instrument or for those starting in the brand.

Standing on the flat beach, the sea far out at low tide, I could feel the salt suspended in the air, the moist breeze coating my skin, drying my lips. Then suddenly, from the far corner where the coastline curves and disappears behind the headland by the rocks, a glowing mass was picked up by the wind and hovered just above the surface of the beach; it glowed, visible but not solid, almost liquid in appearance. It snaked along the ridged sands towards me at speed, and passed through me, the sharp sand scratching my eyes as I squinted, and grating the delicate skin on my cheeks as I held my breath so not to inhale it. I turned to watch these golden ghostly snakes continue up the beach behind me. The sunlight glistening off their backs, illuminating their curved path. And after that brief moment they were gone, sucked into the dry beige wall of the dunes. I took another breath and continued walking.
My art practice centres on an understanding of landscape based on the Japanese term 'fukei', a word that means 'landscape' but is constructed from two characters which individually translate as 'flow' or 'wind', and 'view': drawing the landscape as a "flowing view" in a constant state of flux. This meaning acts in contrast to the English word 'landscape' which has its origins in the picture of scenery, a static representation that, for me, seems removed from the experience of place.
On one hand, this flowing view comes from the landscape itself; from the natural energies within the environment. This energy takes many forms, both visible and invisible to the eye; the sunlight bringing illumination to make the world visible, whilst also providing nourishment for growth of plants, grasses and trees; the breeze has the power to shake tree branches and build dunes from fine dried sands; the force of the moon pushing and pulling the tide. I am very much interested in how all these different energies communicate and affect our connection and interaction with the land. The other side of this 'flowing view' relates to the physical experience of being in place, in that much of what we experience is when we are moving through places. Even if the land appears still and static, we are not. We pause temporarily, maybe to admire a view; to catch breath after climbing a hill; or to locate the source of a sound heard nearby; but then we must continue and move on.
More recently, the term 'flow' has been used to describe a particular state of being. Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's concept of 'flow' takes principles from both phenomenology and information theory to describe how we can attain optimal experience by tuning our attention which in turn tunes our consciousness:
Experience is sensual, physical. It is the taste of salt on lips whilst walking by the sea, it is the distant sounds of waves crashing on rocks, it is the putrid smell of rotting seaweed at low tide that has built up along the sea wall, it is the sensation of uneven ground underfoot, felt through the sole of a boot; it is the subtle changes in light and temperature as the sun passes behind a thin cloud.
These phenomenological experiences of place also affect our internal selves; we remember, we imagine, we feel emotions, we connect; making awareness both and external and physical experience, and internal, emotional matter.
In her autobiographical essay, A Sketch of the Past, Virginia Woolf describes formative experiences throughout her life, with a particular interest in time when 'shocks' or 'moments of being', as she often called them, occurred. These terms describe instances of heightened awareness that she experienced, including her earliest memory:
Sometimes these 'moments of being' come as spectacular and unexpected events, whereas in other instances they can be found through observation, intense observation that brings about this moment of clarity and awareness. Self awareness is a significant factor in recognising these moments, Woolf believed one had to be attuned to these 'moments of being' in order to access them, and that they could be developed through training. Woolf was influenced by Henri Bergson's ideas on experience, placing importance on how we experience. Bergson was interested in how we can deepen and widen our experiences of everyday life. He uses the term 'duration' to describe the authentic means of experiencing time (as opposed to the commonly depended upon 'clock-time').
Although there is no evidence to suggest either Woolf or Bergson were read on Eastern philosophy, their ideas on experience relate strongly to concepts of Zen Buddhism. This teaches that all people are capable of experiencing heightened awareness through practice, meditation for example. The purpose of meditation being to induce a sense of awareness, of a higher consciousness, in the practitioner. This awareness not only relates to the sensations experienced but also the reaction to the sensation.
Walking is one of the most basic forms of meditation and much has been written on this and how it is inducive to creativity. Walking is an important part of my own practice and I would go so far to say that the walk is as important as the process of image making. So as I was walking, I would notice certain movements in the water, the grasses, the trees, the shadows and normally work with these movements in a still image format using extended exposure times. I began to find the still image restrictive in representing all these energies and rhythms within the environment, this led me to start working with moving image.
I approached the process in a similar way to a photograph, in selecting an area of focus and then making a very conscious decision not to pan or zoom whilst filming, thus allowing the energy of the sea, or the wind or the light to create the rhythm within the frame. In doing this, like when I would previously work with extended exposures, I could set the camera to record and then remain present within the environment, I could still experience the space directly rather than through a lens. Setting working processes like these are really important to me as I want my creative process to have as little interruption as possible on my direct experience. As the camera was recording, I was able to engage myself within the space, and it is during these times that I begin to form my responses, not only through the camera, but by writing my thoughts as they come to me, by picking up objects which I later work with in the darkroom, recording sounds and words that I notice myself thinking. As well as building the relationship between myself and the space, I use all these elements when I go back and start to play with all that I have collected and recorded, which all becomes knitted into the work as I develop it. The film works as a way to translate the relationship between myself and the space. I have also found that the films provide a very different form of engagement for the viewer than they would get with a series of still images. The rhythms and changes in pace help form a meditative experience that comes closer to the direct experience of the place.
In Flirting with Space, David Crouch describes landscape as " fleshy, felt, imagined, affected and affects. It is of presence, [it is] bodily..." Crouch describes the transference of energy that occurs between the self and space, and time, as flirting. Flirting suggests an intimacy with place, a sensual connection for which observation and awareness are key. Flirting is closely related to the ideas of flow that I discussed earlier in that it is dependent on the energy both in the environment itself and between the environment and the self. Flirting happens in journeys, and is not an instantaneous act; flirting requires a duration:
Flirting also involves a certain performative quality, it is a creative act which in my case is formed by videos, photographs and writing.
When making the short films, I found myself drawn to how static the path seemed amongst the shifting environment around it, and I thought about myself, my body, on the path within all this external activity. This led me to go back to see how I could respond to these new realisations using still image formats.
I set myself processes that act as a way to limit my control photographically. For example, in photographing along the path, whenever I stop to take a photograph of the path, I also take a photograph to both my right and my left. In all cases the focal distance is preset and remains the same, causing areas, particularly where the grasses and brambles are too close for the lens to focus on are thrown out of focus. I find this way of working allows me to remain present in the moment, in the experience of the walk. It is also important to recognise that the process is also subject to interruption, a sound can distract me, or the need to change the roll of film can cause me to forget to photograph the three positions that I set myself. Although I am working in a process-driven manner, I am still working intuitively with the space.
I chose to work using a vertical panoramic format as a way to directly refer to myself in the place. Proportionally, panoramic format is very human, and with the path I was working with being narrow, as if set for a solitary walker, the narrowness of the image format seemed a natural fit. In his book The Life of Lines, Tim Ingold discusses our relation to paths:
What Ingold describes here relates closely to Crouch's ideas on flirting, in that when the body and the environment interact (and it is a two-way process) each affects and is affected by the other. So, alike the controlled method I set myself, the path itself acts as a parameter. In terms of time, the path determines the duration, is the duration. The rhythm of the walk is affected by the path and the body. The body with its natural rhythm, speed and strength; the path with its inclines, slopes, steps and curves, its variety of surfaces, smooth, soft, hard and uneven ground. All these things determine the rhythm and have the potential to interrupt it, thus the rhythm of the walk becomes naturally embedded within the work.

We're heading back to the Isla Nublar as Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom fires up a viral site for the upcoming movie.
Giving more bite to the franchise that started back in 1993, J.A. Bayona is taking over from Colin Trevorrow following 2015's Jurassic World. Trevorrow reinvented the series after the lackluster Jurassic Park III, but the latest movie looks set to push the envelope further. Combining the old and the new, Fallen Kindom sees the long-awaited return of Jeff Goldblum as Dr. Ian Malcolm, but who else is going head-to-toe with the extinct experiments?
Related: The 30 Most Anticipated Movies of 2018
A viral site for the Dinosaur Protection Group has stirred with activity and now offers some handy character bios for the newcomers and returning cast members alike. Interestingly, fans can get a better idea about who Daniella Pineda and Justice Smith will be playing in their first Jurassic movie. The site has some bios on the DPG's employees, which you can read below.
Zia Rodriguez (Pineda):
"Zia Rodriguez trained in pre-veterinary medicine at Berkeley before the park incident put on hold her dream of accepting an internship at Jurassic World. Now Zia is one of DPG's strongest advocates and our resident expert on dinosaur biology. Once the DPG fulfills its goal, she wishes to achieve her dream of mending our giant neighbors."
Franklin Webb (Smith):
"Having previously worked at Jurassic World as an IT technician, Franklin Webb now operates the DPG's social media and online marketing campaigns. As his surname comically suggests, Franklin is an expert on all things to do with computers and the internet. This makes him an important asset to the DPG's reach around the globe."
It is great to add some fresh meat to the franchise, however, Bryce Dallas Howard's Claire Dearing is once again the focus of the movie. Dearing can be spotted on the site visiting various schools as part of outreach programs about dinos. It appears since her time running away from T-Rexes in heels, Claire has been flying the flag for dinosaur conservation. This shows that Fallen Kingdom will have something fo a U-turn for Claire, who appears to have gone from corporate drone to animal activist. Finally, the site hones in on the volcanic Mt. Sibo, which is the whole reason that the doomed humans return to the abandoned park.
The various trailers have already teased it is Claire who persuades Chris Pratt's Owen to return to the island in hopes of saving the surviving dinos. However, as with all the Jurassic movies, it is never is as simple as a scenic tour around the lush greenery of Costa Rica. Alongside fireballs raining from the sky, Claire, Owen, Zia, and Franklin will be dealing with escaped carnivores and a brand new hybrid dinosaur that looks set to compete with the Indominus Rex of 2015's movie.
The latest Super Bowl trailer gave us a closer look at the monster menace, but fans will have to wait and see how it compares to the raptors and rexes that we have come to love and fear over the years. While the Dinosaur Protection Group may have good intentions, we don't expect it will be long before their numbers are greatly reduced during a disastrous rescue mission to Isla Nublar. Recent projects like Westworld and Cloverfield have made effective use of viral marketing, and Bayona's movie is looking to join the trend. Hopefully, just like the dormant volcano that seems to be the biggest threat this time around, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom will erupt into the box office when it hits theaters this summer.

EBTIC's research and innovation projects being developed at its Abu Dhabi research facility, which is jointly funded by Etisalat, BT and Khalifa University, were demonstrated to EBTIC board members, including some applications that have international patents pending.
"The demonstrations illustrate the dedicated work of EBTIC's researchers and innovators in Next Generation Networks (NGN) and NGN-enabled ICT services, which support the UAE's development and enablement of the digital networked economy," said EBTIC.
The demonstrations covered ICT-enabled application advancements in education, healthcare, energy efficiency, cloud computing, enterprise applications and networking technologies.
"Etisalat's investment in EBTIC shows its commitment to innovation and to the nurturing of UAE talent to support Abu Dhabi's stated goal of being a major telecommunications centre and world-leading provider of wireless and data services, as outlined in its Economic Vision 2030 plan," EBTIC added.
Nasser Salim, senior vice president, Technology Strategy, Etisalat Group, and board member of EBTIC, said that Etisalat's contribution to EBTIC continues its commitment to technology innovation.
"Etisalat is the country's leading telecom provider mainly due to our investment in innovative technologies such as the fibre-optic cabling across the country that will significantly improve our online capabilities," he said.
"Our long-term investment in EBTIC, in conjunction with respected partners BT and KUSTAR, is designed to not only develop world-leading technologies, but to encourage innovation through research in the UAE and provide talented Emiratis with a platform to showcase their skills and entrepreneurship.
"I was very proud today to see demonstrations of these applications developed through extensive research, and I am confident that our commitment will provide long-term benefits to achieving the vision of our leaders in establishing the UAE as a global telecommunications hub."
With many of the EBTIC innovators currently working with Etisalat, the corporation hopes to integrate these NGN applications into its own technological developments in the coming years.
