The great thing about turntable.fm is all the new music that you discover from it's various users. Our friends over at Paper Garden Records have been matriculating from room to room, playing many of the artists on their label, including The City and Horses and Little Tybee, who we recently recorded a Laundromatinee.com session. Needless to say, we've been picking up what they're puttin' down.
This week, The City and Horses released a quirky little video for the title track from their album, We Will Never Be Discovered, due out on September 27th. The track gives you a Pixies vocal vibe with a hippy twist.

After two weeks of good times and celebrations, it's time to get back to work. We know… you don't want to, especially with the cold spell going on.
Don't worry, the cold is coming to an end and it's now time to make up for lost time! With the NFL playoffs going on and the return of European Soccer Championships, this weekend looks extremely promising. But before then, let's start with this video of a 4th-grader playing varsity high school basketball and KILLING IT. Check it out!
You can now leave your old pajamas, jump on your shoes and head to the bar!

340 Miles to Immortality (Part I)
What an incredible adventure.
I learned of the MR340 for the first time back in the end of April. Less than a week later I had signed up and stopped shaving. I knew that an undertaking this herculean would require all my strength. And there is nothing stronger than a magnificently fierce beard. But my beard and I would not be alone. To his ever lasting credit, my friend Josh Colbeck jumped at the chance to join me. He stepped up to the challenge and proved himself worthy at every turn.
Josh Colbeck - Savage
The MR 340 is firmly entrenched on my life's highlight reel.
Oh, wait, what's this blasphemy you speak? You're not familiar with the MR 340? You've never heard of the longest, most-grueling, continuous kayak race on the planet? Shave your face immediately while I enlighten you. This is the longest, most-grueling, continuous kayak race on the planet Earth. The "MR" stands for the Missouri River, one of the greatest rivers on this continent; the river that Lewis & Clark's expedition (two truly indomitable spirits) followed upstream to start their journey into history. The "340" stands for 340 miles. That is the distance. You must propel yourself three hundred and forty miles. No motor. No sail. No tying up with other boats. You have to paddle yourself down river. In the words emblazoned on the tie-dye t-shirt I got paddling the Nolichucky River years ago: "Paddle or Die."
This race starts at 8am on a Tuesday morning, timed to coincide with the full moon. Appropriate considering only savages could complete such an undertaking. The race time limit expires at midnight on Friday night. You have exactly 88 hours to paddle 340 miles down the Missouri River from Kaw Point in Kansas City, KS to St. Charles, MO. Sleep if you can.
Fear not, this race of maniacs is strictly voluntary. Your average person doesn't tackle a challenge like this. Can't handle it. Though our beards were still growing and not yet fully developed, we thought we stood a chance.
Handsome devil. Beard: less than one month.
Josh and I were fully excited, but a little unsure of what paddling such distance would be like physically. Having worked together for two years, we knew our personalities were extremely compatible, and I was thankful for that. During times of extreme stress and discomfort, you need other people with positive attitudes, people who can find that gallows humor and help you make the best of a shitty situation. Josh and I both have that adventurous spirit. Which explains why we both jumped at this challenge. And to us, this was a personal challenge. Like this race was created specifically with the thought of calling us out in mind. You can't have Sam Jackson's wallet from Pulp Fiction if you can't back it up. You know what his wallet says on it...
This isn't some float trip where your drunk ass floats mindlessly on the river trying to untie bikini tops while dodging empty beer cans. Every year, the AVERAGE is more than 30% of people fail to complete this race. Oh, but you ran a marathon once? Neat. (Seriously though, good for you!) That's 26.2 long miles. You probably did that in 4-6 hours. How many people that started the race didn't finish? 8? Out of thousands? If 300 people attempt the MR 340, you can count on 100 or more dropping out along the way. Bit off more than they could chew.
So we did what every great explorer has done before us. We gathered as much information as we could. We read books, online forums, checked and rechecked our gear, and did several training paddles. We focused on the last stretch of the race, which also happened to be the one nearest our home. We were also very fortunate that this race was in our backyard. It's not like we were driving across country for our first look at the river on race day. We were fortunate to get direct experience on the Missouri River ahead of time. The last section of the race, from Washington, MO to St. Charles, MO, is 40 miles by river. During our training runs we learned the importance of getting comfortable in the pain box, minimizing shore time, of river levels impacting overall speed, and on one paddle, just how much the elements are out of our control.
We also knew that to complete the MR340 you need to paddle at night, so having never done that, we knew we needed to practice beforehand. So, along with our buddy John Pollihan, we put in at Washington at 9pm, eventually finishing a little after 5am in St. Charles. It was the best paddle we'd done yet. The weather was phenomenal, low 70s, and a clear night with lots of stars and a super moon literally casting shadows on the river. The tranquil river quietly flowed towards St. Charles and we paddled gently with it. It was a glorious time on the river.
Emboldened by our successes and our growing, yet still immature beards(<1.5"), we decided to try a longer stretch, 77 miles, from the Gasconade River just West of Hermann, MO back to St. Charles. We paddled the first mile or so and made it to the confluence of the MO. As soon as we entered the bigger river, we were smacked in the face with gusting winds, 20-25+ miles per hour. Being inches off the mighty river in a tiny floating kayak was not a fun place to be. At least, not if you were planning on paddling 76 more miles. The wind was so fierce that it created 2' waves that crested into foaming whitecaps all over the river. If you stopped paddling, you started floating backwards. Quickly. UP river. Against the current (3mph). It took us much cussing and effort just to make it 8 miles down river to Hermann in 3 hours. This blew up our time table for the training run as we had obligations the next morning that we were now hopelessly behind schedule to meet. Luckily we were able to call a friend to pick us up and aborted our paddling there. Though our evening ended with BBQ and whiskey at Hendrix BBQ in St. Charles, the river defeated us that day.
And our beards grew longer, but that defeat lay heavy on our hearts as the race drew closer...
(Continued in: PART II)

Ace Transport Ltd. is a service that came into being in 1987 when the owner, as a local landlord, realized how costly containerized garbage pickup had become and how difficult it was to get rid of the furniture and junk tenants leave behind. Landlords needed a fast and inexpensive way to get rid of the weekly garbage accumulation and the assorted junk tenants put out. Thus, Ace Transport Ltd. was born.
During the banking crises of 1991, when the state shuttered 35 banking and lending institutions and landlords were walking away from their multi unit apartment buildings to foreclosure the management firms called upon Ace Transport Ltd. to get those buildings ready for sale once again, by removing all the furniture and junk the dispossessed tenants left behind. That's when Ace Transport Ltd. began to expand by adding new trucks and crews to accommodate the demand for RI trash removal services.
Soon, Real Estate brokers from around the state and nearby Massachusetts were calling Ace Transport Ltd. in to clear houses, garages, basements, and attics so that they could maximize the selling potential for their listings by showing a clean property.
Now our RI junk removal crews work all over Rhode Island, Massachusetts, eastern Connecticut, and southern New Hampshire for customers just like you. This is our 31st year in business because, quite simply, we are very good at what we do.

We strive to get to each and every customer in a timely manner, but because we are good at what we do we stay busy and recommend you book your appointment as soon as you know you need our services.

I will try give useful information about food, accommodation and terrain.
For the accommodation I will rate each teahouse. My rating scale will be as follows:
One Cup - Poor
Two Cups - Fair
Three Cups - Good
The rating will be based on a combination of facilities and experience.
In some locations the teahouse may not have been the most comfortable or bathroom may not have been up to par but the fun we had with locals outweighed the physical surroundings.
Similarly in other locations the facilities were excellent but the experience was a bit sterile.
I will also rate the weather.
During the trek we found some locations to be colder than what we were really prepared for.
One of our guides wore the same clothes throughout the journey but added more hats as it got colder.
The rating scheme for temperature will therefore be based on the number of hats longman is wearing.

One afternoon, my 3-year-old student-friend was sharing with me how cool and how fast his train can go. He then excitingly went on from his subway's train type, color and number to what he does on the subway while traveling from downtown to uptown. Like many other three-year-old boys, he loves cars, trains, and airplanes. What is not so ordinary is that he shared this story with me in perfect Mandarin –despite his non-Asian appearance; and the fact that none of his parents or other family members speak Mandarin.
How does this happen?
Neuroscientists have been showing that before a child is born, he/she already begins their learning journey in mommy's womb. After they are born, those neural connections, which help in acquiring sensory pathways, language, and higher cognitive functions, start to grow rapidly in the first year of infancy. A fascinating aspect is that a child's language skills mature around nine months old, generally way before they begin speaking words.
What follows are a couple of suggestions to get a child started on their foreign language journey:
1. Start Young
Babies as young as six to nine months old could start to join a mommy and me foreign language program. Early exposure to foreign language will help infants expand their sound spectrum and strengthen the neural connections that support language learning.
2. Find a Creative Language Immersion Program
Language is a tool learned through action. Look for a program that focuses on cultivating children's creative and artistic nature through playful and culture-related activities. We will get into more details on how to choose a program next time. To find a class nearby, Kidz Central Station is always my favorite site to go to.
3. Live Sounds and Reciprocal Interaction
The most effective way in foreign language learning is immersing in live sound and reciprocal interaction. Once or twice a week a Mommy and Me class in a foreign language is a good start. Although babies may not be able to speak yet, you will see the signs showing that they really know the words and phrases after participating in the class for couple months. Besides taking classes, some language programs also provide reasonable rate for one-on-one private sessions at your home if kids are enrolled in their group classes.
Each child has his or her own unique way to learn and should proceed down that learning journey at his/her own pace. More questions or want to share your experience? Feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com
By: Mimi Lin. Mimi has been working with young children for over 15 years. Her Ph.D. dissertation is about music, language and creativity in early childhood education. She is also the founder of two creative schools- Music Beans & Language Beans where she enjoys the learning journey with young children.

"These extracts, alleged excerpts of the book, have been released by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and their official spokespersons, their media wing and they have brought the book out. It is not published though, I really don't understand how it can be defamatory if it has not been made public. I've not made them public, that's for sure," Ms Khan said in an interview.
Asked if the leaks were genuine, she said this was just a "manuscript" and nothing had been published yet. The leaks have many allegations, ranging from sexual misconduct to the sex lives of her former husband and others in Pakistan, for which she is now being sued.
"I brought this book out, believing that this is important for people to know. So it is definitely in public interest. Really it should not be seen as revenge, it should be seen as in public interest," Ms Khan said.
"To be quite honest, if indeed it is going to affect the frontrunner for PM... I mean, I have my opinion about that," she said. "I have a political analysis about that because the way things are going in Pakistan, the way the propaganda machinery is working... It is a fascist approach basically... where if you do not speak in favour of a particular party leader -- in this case the leader of PTI -- or if you do not paint the PTI positively, your articles are pulled off from online websites, leading daily newspapers. Senior journalists have been under a lot of pressure, they have been intimidated."
Asked about her recent statements that Imran Khan would pander to extremists if he became Prime Minister, Reham Khan said she thought "he will do whatever it takes".
"All the people that they have chosen are really objectionable... I think if an extremist tilt is going to bring you into power, Imran is going to do that and that is my main complaint; we have seen in December last year a certain madarasa getting 50 crore while in 11 districts in the province where PTI rules, the Child Protection units have been shut, budgets for education, particularly girls' schooling, have been cut, 42 schools have been shut down and they have quoted budget restrictions," she added.

Hello! It's Nicole Watson back with Donna Downey's 2018 Artist Gang!
This week I'm using Donna's single stem stencil to make some really quick cards for fall with minimal supplies and derwent inktense blocks. These cards are simple, but you could continue to enhance them with doodles, lines, or stamped sentiments. Or, instead of making cards add a fall stem to your art journal.
Share your art!
I'd love to see what you create. Share your art journal spreads in the donna downey : Community of Artists facebook page! Or, share on Instagram, and tag Donna Downey Studios.
Happy creating!

Hi! I'm Nicole Watson, a Midwest girl who married a Southern boy and now lives in Houston, Texas.
Art has always been a constant for me … from collecting random bits of paper at a young age, to selling my first painting in high school, then discovering mixed media while studying art and design at Iowa State University (ISU). Other stops along my art journey include scrapbooking, card making, freelance photography, and layout/graphic design.
I enjoy the messy hands that result from creating. Mixed media allows me to discover new art forms while uniquely combining the things I love most—whether fun mediums like watercolor, pastel, or acrylic on canvas to textural elements like gesso, ephemera, and other found objects.
My proudest accomplishments this past year include completing Donna's 48 Weeks class and binding the 17 plus pound journal that resulted, as well as finishing my Bachelor of Liberal Studies degree/Russian Studies minor as a distance student at ISU.
After taking many online and in-person art classes and creating in my studio, I'm excited to begin sharing my art with the world while hopefully inspiring others to do the same.

Stage & Dance
After TV and Broadway, Lexington actor returns home to entertain
Colton Ryan wanted to get Tony and Emmy award-winning actor Mandy Patinkin to sing.
Yes, plenty of us have heard him sing, particularly the music of Stephen Sondheim. But Ryan, a Lexington native, was sharing a car with Patinkin to the set of the critically acclaimed Showtime series "Homeland," and he wanted to hear the man sing one-on-one.
One day, the "Jetsons" theme song came up, and Ryan was getting his wish, listening to Patinkin sing one of the last songs he expected to hear.
"I just sat back and took it in," the graduate of the School for the Creative and Performing Arts at Lafayette High School said.
That's the kind of year Ryan had in 2017, playing a key role in the Tony Award-winner for best musical, making his TV debut on "Law & Order: SVU" and filming guest roles on the acclaimed series "Homeland" and "The Americans."
But the first weekend of 2018, Lexington gets Ryan back as he is one of the featured performers in the Lexington Theatre Company's annual "Concert with the Stars" production. The show, now in its fourth edition, features four Broadway stars performing songs integral to their careers with student performers from regional college theater programs.
As always, the show also features the announcement of the Lexington Theatre Company's summer production, and for the first time, the company is planning two: July 12 to 15 and Aug. 2 to 5. Both shows will be announced Saturday night.
Two years ago, Ryan was one of the college hopefuls in the show, performing before getting back to classes at Baldwin Wallace University in Berea, Ohio. On Saturday night, he will become the first hopeful in the series to return as a star, fresh off his tenure understudying the title role in the Broadway production of "Dear Evan Hansen."
"As small of a victory as the whole year has been, it's been so wonderful and so sweet," Ryan said. "And being able to celebrate with everybody at home is just going to mean so much to me."
The show will return Ryan to a stage, the Lexington Opera House, where he had some of his key formative experiences in shows such as SCAPA's production of "Les Miserables."
But last year, in the early days of "Evan Hansen," Ryan reflected on the humbling experience of his senior year, ending up at Baldwin Wallace in part because it was the only college theater program that accepted him. But it turned out to be a serendipitous match: He loved the school, and it set the stage for him to join the cast of "Evan Hansen."
His role was to support Ben Platt in his Tony Award-winning performance, but being part of "Evan Hansen" helped open the door to other career-affirming opportunities, including a pivotal role in an episode of the "SVU" that seemed particularly timely because just a few weeks after it aired, fellow Kentuckian Ashley Judd helped kick open the door of the #MeToo movement with her allegations against film mogul Harvey Weinstein in The New York Times.
The episode, "No Good Reason," concerned a high school girl who was raped by a fellow student or students at a party. Ryan's character, one of her friends, slowly comes to acknowledge that he was the rapist.
Ryan says he had no qualms playing the bad guy, and he thinks the way he and the director, Martha Mitchell, approached the part was really important in light of what has unfolded in the last few months regarding sexual harassment and assault.
"I was worried about this kid coming across as malicious, or that he is a monster, truly," Ryan said. To him, it was important to portray the student as someone sympathetic who ended up doing a monstrous thing.
"We have to watch a kid face the truth, as ugly as it can be," Ryan said. "Not all bad guys are just bad guys. … We're all examining that maybe the benchmark for being a good guy was too low."
If you missed Ryan's TV debut, there are more chances to come, as he has guest shots on "The Americans" and "Homeland" coming up. He also is working on a new musical in development, "It's Kind of a Funny Story."
Ryan finished his work on "Evan Hansen" in November. He says early in the show's run, he entertained the idea that maybe he could succeed Platt in the lead, but came to understand that understudies usually don't succeed the star on Broadway, and he says in the end that freed him to pursue some other opportunities such as the TV shows and even enjoy Christmas at home and a holiday visit with his girlfriend in Vermont, where she's in a show.
And it allows him the time to come back and perform for the hometown audience.
He will, of course, sing some "Evan Hansen" selections in the concert, he said. But he also intends to make a it "a love letter to Lexington and my influences, and people who have meant so much to me, like Steve Kazee, coming from Kentucky and Morehead," he said, referring to the Ashland native and Morehead State University graduate who won a Tony for best actor in a musical for "Once" in 2012, and who will star in the stage adaptation of "Pretty Woman" this year.
"I remember being in high school when 'Once' happened, and how much that story rang true with me — my father was an immigrant from Ireland — and to know he was telling that story and the music meant so much to me just blew my mind," Ryan says. "That was a huge catalyst for me wanting to do it, and think that it was a possibility.
"If there was a possibility for my life to give that sort of thing back to kids in Lexington, … that would be the most fulfilling thing for me."

Knee Arthritis
The knee is a common site for "wear and tear" arthritis. Although there may be many predisposing factors such as previous injury, being overweight or having relatives with the same condition, the common feature is a wearing out of the smooth cartilage that lines the joint. This results in friction being generated on movement and the characteristic symptoms of pain and swelling.
Non-operative treatment
The best treatment for you will depend on the severity of your symptoms and the extent of the wear as seen on X-rays and scans. Many patients derive benefit from losing weight and strengthening the muscles in their legs, around the hips and in the "core" area. Sometimes injections can ease the discomfort to allow these exercises to be carried out.
The best operative treatment will depend on the extent of the damage and the symptoms it is causing. Occasionally keyhole surgery can be used if there is a specific problem to solve, such as a loose chunk of cartilage getting caught in the joint. Often, changing the pressure on the damaged area through joint realignment (Osteotomy) or changing the surface of the joint through replacement with prosthetic implants may be necessary. Please see sections on JOINT REPLACEMENT and OSTEOTOMY for further information on these procedures.

Rachel Vatland, 81, of Mabel
Rachel A. Vatland, 81, of Mabel, died on Monday, April 15, 2019, at Gundersen Health Systems in LaCrosse, Wis.
She was born on April 11, 1938, in Rushford to Marvel and Eva (Highlan) Sandsness.
She graduated from the Rushford High School and attended Luther College for a year and later the Winona Business College.

My experience with Dr Gerarchi was excellent, he made me feel comfortable and relaxed I could explain what I wanted in the procedure. After the operation I was relaxed and relieved that everything went very well. When I went to see Dr Gerarchi for my post-op appointment and to have the cast taken off, I was very happy with the outcome of my nose. Dr Paul Gerarchi has definitely exceeded my expectations.

Welcome to Grist Mill Farm
The idea for Grist Mill Farm Alpacas was actually conceived in 2002 when we had our first encounter with alpacas while at a polo match. We were attracted to them because they were cute, gentle, curious and calm. Although we often talked about them, we didn't get really serious until we bought our 35 acre property in the beautiful rolling hills of northern Chester County Pennsylvania.
The property we bought was home to a dilapidated and crumbling grist mill dating to the early 1800s, along with a collapsed stone barn and an overgrown pasture. We built our house using all of the original stone and closely duplicated the original structure. We also added a small barn in anticipation of raising alpacas.

Who are we to justify the ways of Chris Harrison? Bachelor in Paradise is back, and man have I missed watching fit white people and their sunburns, flat butts, and hair frizzing slowly in the punishing sun. Actually, this season features a not-embarrassing number of people of color, so yay ABC for committing to diversity even without understanding how to properly vet contestants! Obviously, Corinne won't be joining us again because she's still being tortured by Sacha Baron Cohen, but there are plenty of larger-than-life personalities to keep this boat a-floating. For some, this will be Paradise Lost. For others, Paradise Found. (… in tabloid headlines six months after their engagement airs. *cough* Taylor and Derek *cough*) Who will rise and who will fall? Let's find out!
The cast this episode is large – like, twenty people large. The first rose ceremony, which does not happen in this episode, is Eve's Choice so you can expect a lot of kissing up from the guys in hopes that they will not be cast out. Let's look at the main players:
TIA: Like Raven last season, Tia is poised to be the Southern Queen Bee on the Beach. But her preoccupation with Colton ends up taking precedence and instead she becomes a hot mess, torn between waiting for him to show up and moving on. Spoiler alert: she does both. Like, would it not have been easier to just, I don't know, CALL HIM ahead of time instead of saving drama for a reality TV show to bare your soul to an audience so that you can sell them products on Instagram afterward? Oh right ... yeah, that makes sense. By the end of this episode, Tia's got both Chris and Colton vying for her fickle affections.
JORDAN: If I knew I would get some accompanying sound effects, you better believe I'd be taking advantage. Jordan is wisely utilized as a narrator for parts of this episode because if Jordan spit it, Jordan wrote it. Unlike other narcissists who have appeared on the show, though, he seems genuinely interested in finding someone.
BIBIANA: Okay, Bibi. I have issues. You talk like your uterus needs action, and you brought bathing suits to "kill them with booty," but you are not interested in any of the hot people around you. Your vagine did not whisper to you. Am I missing something? Also what happened with the New Zealand guy on The Bachelor Winter Games?? Anyhow that post credits scene with Eric helping her get a booger off her face was super sweet (ignore Jordan retching in the background). Honestly, the sweetest parts of BiP are often the coed friendships – think Nick Viall and Ashley Iaconetti. Speaking of ....
KEVIN: This Canadian firefighter first crossed over our borders for Winter Games, where he and Ashley I. hit it off in a major, she-might-have-lost-her-virginity-to-him kind of way. And now he claims Ashley kissed Jared while they were still together! Does that make it more or less sweet that Ashley 100% sabotaged Jared's relationship with Caila in season three? Does Kevin's saltiness make him more or less attractive? He makes a very strong move on Krystal this episode, which she seems to enjoy lots, so I'm reserving judgment.
GROCERY STORE JOE: Shout out to Chicago! I love how every thought that enters Joe's mind is visible on his sweet, open face. Like when Kendall tells him her favorite place to picnic is in a cemetery. Yes, you did lose him there, honey. But apparently this wholesome Chicagoan is into Kendall's wholesome weirdness because they're making out by the end of the first day. Also, kudos to Joe for not wasting time! He speaks to all the female contestants, and when Kendall says she was expecting more aggro behavior re: territory marking, Joe is totally like "What do you think I'm doing, bitch" but in a super nice, wholesome way.
KENDALL: Yeah, I'm definitely missing something about her allure.
KRYSTAL: Lordy lord, am I glad to see you. There is something so cathartic about watching a walking makeup tutorial slowly unravel when the Chicagoan she wants is making out with somebody else. Krystal still ends up pulling someone – Canadian Kevin – but I really wish she would unleash the catty diva she's fighting to hide.
CHELSEA: A mom! All hail this mom. I'm not sure what Blonde Nick was going for, but he tries in a really roundabout, kind of drunk? vaguely offensive way to come on to Chelsea when they're sitting on one of the daybeds and she is NOT having it. She is facedown bored. She is irritated. And she is tired. She tells him she's going up to her room and #thanksbutnothanks DO NOT FOLLOW ME. Chelsea, I support you.
KENNY: Too pure for this world.
DAVID: Wants to marry his mother.
There are some other peeps who will hopefully make themselves known – Astrid, the tea sipping audience stand-in; Wills, the best dresser; Chris, who thinks he's a goose but I can't be bothered to care about. Who will be our Adam and Eve? Who will be the snake who causes its own downfall? Will bisexuality be weirdly touted as a wild card again? Will we ever learn the difference between a sunburn and a drunk flush? Until next week, HEAUXS!!

Bringing holograms to life with Windows 10
- Posted on August 6, 2015
When Microsoft announced that Windows 10 is not just being limited to desktop, laptop, tablet and phone, but will be expanded to IoT (Internet of Things) devices, they also introduced a complete new device running on Windows 10: HoloLens.
HoloLens is a combination of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). With VR a virtual world is created which replaces the 'real' world with the virtual world. A good example of a VR device is the Oculus Rift. When you put on the Oculus Rift VR glasses you're ready to start exploring a complete new virtual world. AR is a more common form of interaction. We see it a lot on television and smartphones with apps like Layar. AR is adding an extra layer of information on top of the real world. For example you can add a virtual world record line on the pool during a swimming contest.
HoloLens combines the virtual world with the real world and creates a mixed reality. The best thing about HoloLens is that it goes beyond the screen and uses your world as a canvas to project holograms, like they are standing on a physical object. And they are not projected statically, you can actually interact with them. Resize the hologram, walk around it and interact with it. All in real-time. HoloLens opens up thousands of scenarios that previously were only imaginable in movies.
The HoloLens doesn't have a screen. Interaction with holograms is therefore done with gestures, your voice and your eyes. The HoloLens is able to 'see' what you are looking at, and therefore it is useful as an interaction method to select, or to point, at things in the most natural way.
If you look at the HoloLens as a device, it looks like a pair of giant sunglasses with a headband. The HoloLens is packed with advanced sensors to capture information about what you're doing and the environment you're in. The high definition lenses are used to project the holograms. At the heart of the device is the holographic processing unit which is custom developed to process all the data coming from the sensors in real time. And all of this untethered and wireless, to give you the maximum freedom to walk around and move freely.
From a development perspective there isn't much information available about the HoloLens. There also aren't many HoloLenses available for testing. What we do know is that any Windows 10 app can run on the HoloLens and that it can be projected somewhere in the room. (We have seen some demos of Skype and movie apps being projected on the wall)
Another point of attention is that the HoloLens won't be the only device being able to run Windows 10 Holographic. Any other vendor that builds a holographic computing device (and complies with the hardware requirements which are not available right now) could run Windows 10 with holographic capabilities on it.
There are still a lot of questions about HoloLens and Windows 10 Holographic and how developers can build apps for it. However, Microsoft is revealing more and more information and I'm excited to see that holograms are really coming to life and bringing complete new interaction patterns. It is still unclear which use cases are best for holograms, but it has potential for various business cases to benefit from hologram usage in multiple areas. Good candidates for HoloLens areas are gaming, business, science and education. On the HoloLens website are a few business cases with real world partners that looks very promising.

I have recently had birthday. Another journey around the sun and it has made me quite reflective on how I got to where I am in my life. To an outsider I am successful, I have a strong professional presence in design, illustration and performance, a good social life, loving husband and positive outlook for the future. People describe me as "lucky", but luck has nothing to do with where I am or any accomplishment I may have made. Everything I have was built through constant learning, trial and error and lots and lots of work (and it was nurtured by the love and support of those I chose to surround myself with).
Luck, in my opinion is the hope of the lazy, for if luck exists, what is the need for hard work. I am not going to lie to you and say that if you sit just as you are some day your prince will come, your life will change, that some one will hand you the keys to the kingdom and as if by magic you will have everything you have desired. Unfortunately, this is not the case. If you have goals, passions and desires then my only suggestion to you is to work hard and be diligent and this will give you the greatest chance to be successful in your endeavours.
Now this is a pretty vague piece of advice, 'work hard and you will be rewarded'. However it has never failed me, even when the 'reward' came in a form which was completely unexpected or planned.
So below I have listed some steps you can take to grow your talents, and make your own 'luck.

Giving their lives a voice
Friends since middle school, Denae Burchall and Zoe Smith talk � and sometimes argue � about everything.
Current events, their friends� love lives, nothing is sacred.
Figuring there had to be other people just like them they started a podcast with help from Zoe�s cousin, Lara Smith.
TRUSpace has six half-hour programmes on SoundCloud under its belt; sexism, addiction and parenting are among the featured topics since its launch last month.
�All you need is a set of microphones, a computer and some special software, quiet space and some good banter,� said Lara, who runs film production company LDS Multimedia. �Zoe and I have been doing this kind of thing since we were nine years old.
�We were always making little music videos or audio recordings.�
Once the production side was taken care of, the women had only to worry whether people would find them interesting.
�We wondered how we would be perceived in public,� said Zoe, 27. �We wondered if people would listen. What kind of feedback would we get from a show with just two people talking?�
Added Lara, 32: �You�re doing it for an audience. You want to be authentic to yourself, but you are speaking to people. You don�t want to rub them the wrong way.�
Their first talk, about social media, was downloaded by 102 listeners.
�I think that was a good icebreaker,� said Denae, 27. �We talked about how social media affects us in our daily interactions, there is that instant gratification thing.
�We felt like social media was something that all millennials could speak on and have a conversation about.
�We had a lot of good feedback with that one. We had a lot of people say, I can relate to that, even the embarrassing stuff like the relationship dynamics that happen because of social media � like feeling validated within your relationship because your partner posted you or changed their status to �In a Relationship�.
�Not being posted by your partner can sometimes breed insecurity, does this mean he is dating other people?�
A self-described introvert, she was initially worried about how she might come across.
�The best part of doing the podcast for me is being able to speak my mind, and not really worry about being judged,� the Women�s Resource Centre programme co-ordinator said.
Meanwhile, Zoe, a Delta Air Lines supervisor, described the production process as �therapeutic�.
�It is just two hours of talk. It is so therapeutic and releasing. �We just put it out there and then it�s back to reality. It gives us two hours to have no type of chaos.�
More than 360 people listened to their talk on addiction.
Their featured guest, Dayla Burgess, a drug and alcohol addiction counsellor with the Women�s Treatment Centre, talked about illicit drugs targeting millennials and the resources for people who wanted to kick their habit.
�The drugs they are using aren�t necessarily new, in fact they are mostly pharmaceuticals like Xanax, fentanyl, Percocets,� Denae said. �Millennials aren�t really using cocaine, heroin and ecstasy, although those drugs that I just mentioned are within the same families and produce a similar effect.
�Molly, for example, is pure MDMA while ecstasy is MDMA with additives. The media openly pushes these drugs.
�For example, the chorus to the rapper Future�s song Mask Off is: �Molly, Percocet, Molly, Percocet� � and this is a song that is on mainstream radio.�
Said Zoe: �I see the problem around us so much. When we go out clubbing, we see so many things happening.
�I think sometimes we don�t understand the root cause of a lot of issues we face in the community.
�The addiction podcast was bringing those issues to light, and maybe helping people partaking in these situations.�
Most gratifying was that listeners wrote in to thank them.
�It was an exhale for a lot of people,� Denae said. �We have people who are close to us who have battled addictions.
�We are passionate about these topics because this is our lives. People contact us through social media to say, �Hey do you guys want to touch on this? I�m having this issue�.�
The fallout is that strangers will sometimes come up and start a conversation.
�I�ll be in the grocery store and someone will come up to me and just say randomly: �This is what I think about that show you did ...�,� Zoe said. �Sometimes it takes me a while to figure out what they�re talking about.�
Lara thinks the show is gaining followers partly because there are so few like it.
�I know a few Bermudians overseas who have podcasts,� she said. �But I don�t really know many other podcasts broadcast in Bermuda that talk about local issues. We have talk radio in Bermuda, but you have to be glued to a radio physically.
�A podcast allows you to listen on the go. You could be travelling and listen; you can pause it. I think the accessibility of it is really cool.
�These two have done really well. On the mics they balance each other.
�It really is artistic to go back and forth. I never feel like they are fighting each other for attention.�
Although geared to millennials they�ve had feedback from all ages. �One of the great things is that it is helping me to connect with my daughter,� Denae said of her ten-year-old. �My daughter Lara has grown up with things like social media.
�When she heard we were starting a podcast she thought it was so cool, and wanted to come and watch.�
� TRUSpace is available for download on SoundCloud. Look for @truspacebda on Twitter and Facebook

Soil News from Across the Web
"Farming and the environment must go hand-in-hand" says the NFU in response to the government's 25 year Environment Plan. Farming is in "a unique position to deliver for the environment as long as there are productive and viable businesses, where food is at the heart", they say.
Meanwhile, what's in the EU's environmental in-tray for 2018? Brexit (obvs), this week's plastics regulation, a chemicals regulation and an EU strategy for meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals including commitments on air, water and soil.
This week's landslides in Montecito, California provide another timely – and tragic – reminder of the importance of taking care of your soil.
The ADHB is recruiting farmer research innovation groups from across the country to measure the impact of innovations in soil management between now and 2021.
What makes up the 'full spectrum' of soil indicators? Well its nutrition, biological activity, sediment loss, organic matter, physical properties and outside influences such as weather, temperature and historical farming practice – according to another ADHB soil 'baselining' project in Suffolk.
High levels of calcium, lead and zinc pollution in some of London's soils were caused by the distribution of building dust and debris during the Blitz, according to the British Geological Survey, that is.
Matt Damon was wrong it seems. Leafy greens, sweet potatoes and hops – and not potatoes – grow best in simulated Martian dirt.
Rare green soil developed over time from the ashes of ancient French volcanoes is a component in the winning entry for the FAO sponsored global soil painting competition.
Sustainable Soils Alliance News
Hot on the heels of the 25 Year Plan, the Sustainable Soils Alliance Launch Report and Call to Action was published this week – and is available to view on our website here.
We can now confirm that the stakeholder event to discuss the place of soil in the 25 Year Plan for the Environment in Portcullis House will take place on March 13.
We will shortly be announcing a formal collaborating partner for our soils monitoring workshop due to take place in February. Watch this space for further details.
And finally, we are delighted to announce the recruitment of a new Director to the Board of the Alliance. Matthew Orman, Managing Director of Harcourt Public Affairs will be responsible for our communications and political engagement.

'I've thought about being a good father'
By: Upala KBR, Mid-Day
Wednesday, March 01, 2006
With wife Sussanne due next month, Hrithik Roshan looks all set to become a proud papa.
His own equation with his father has been great - both personally and professionally.
We caught up with the actor whose most memorable roles have come in his father's films, as he prepares to keep up nights, change diapers et al.
You share an amazing rapport with your dad.
I don't think it's the comfort level. Yes, we enjoy a level of freedom and communication that I, unfortunately, have not yet enjoyed with any other director. That is a natural consequence of us being father and son. We have the luxury and advantage of understanding and knowing each other.
We have also developed a way of working without any egos. We might not think in the same direction all the time but we make it a point to confront each other's views and allow the best thought to win. Communication is the most important aspect of any kind of creative work, without the fear of hurting anyone.
That is something all actors and directors working as a team should achieve. Whenever I am working with an outside filmmaker, I am very wary of saying too much or convincing a bit too hard, but with dad, I don't have that fear.
Dad and I can tell each other anything and come back and live under the same roof. Once the shot is canned, it's forgotten. That is the only thing that has worked to my advantage.
What's the relationship you share with your dad on the sets?
I don't think you can really draw a complete demarcation and say "father" at home and "director" on the sets. He can't escape being my father on the sets and at home, and that works for me, too. I do not come across with him as casually as I would in the house.
There is a sense of deep respect and awe. I am completely in awe of him when I am working with him as a director. And we are always father and son, whether at work or at home.
Is he more a friend or a father?
He's my father in every sense of the word. We have never been on buddy-buddy terms and we can't be that because there is far too much respect and awe in the relationship. But we have a silent understanding and know each other very well.
What is the one thing that you have learnt from him?
I have learnt everything from him, and am still learning. If I had to pick one thing it would be punctuality - to be on time for anything. Ninety per cent of success, they say, is showing up on time, or you might miss the bus.
Now that you are going to become a dad yourself, how does it feel?
The more you experience life, the more you evolve and the more mature you get. I don't know how to feel about being a father. It's just that moment - when it happens, you know.
Are you anxious about being a good father?
I have thought about being a good father. Presently, I am going with the flow of life. It's a challenge and I hope that we are able to give our child the best of life. Also, teach the right values and sensitivities about life, and help build a healthy mind. Eventually, he/she will evolve into a good human being.

Whatever happened to predictability.../
There are no sick days with this gig, but there are grandparents! And that is a major perk.
Like I say in that intro column to the right (or bottom of the page, if you're not on a computer), between all of us in this house, there is always a story. Matt left on Friday for a 7-day work trip to NYC so strep throat decided to come visit me! I was already tired and run down when he left (thanks to a night of legendary rock and roll with Jack White earlier in the week). By Sunday my throat was on fire, and Monday's aches and chills brought me to my doctor's office where a rapid strep test quickly came out positive.
Thankfully my parents swooped in, collected the girls from pre-school and school, delivered them to and from activities and had them sleep over - even though it was a school night. They got them back into the city and off to pre-school and school Tuesday morning and collected them again. They were slated to sleep over with Grandma and Grandpa that night anyway, because I had a full day appointment scheduled for Wednesday (sadly no, not at the spa), which also happened to be a PD day - no school. So another sleepover went ahead.
I didn't have to deal with any children in the night (the three-year-old comes in our room "scared" every.damn.night and proceeds to toss and turn and kick me in the back until morning). I got ELEVEN hours of sleep IN A ROW, I read an entire novel, I caught up on some TV. By Wednesday morning I was feeling pretty rested. Not so sure my parents could say the same thing. So by Wednesday afternoon I went off to collect them and now we're back to our regularly scheduled programming, mind you all three of us have head colds.
But this is not how Wednesday was supposed to be. The blog post I had in mind this week was going to be about my Wednesday plans. Again, in that intro for the blog, I talk about how I strive to balance my life, "All while living with an unpredictable and chronic illness: Crohn's Disease, and all that comes with it." And in my about me section, which you've all read of course, I express how "I'd like to focus more on my experiences with chronic illness to help myself, those around me, and maybe a reader or two who just needs to know they are not alone."
I haven't done much of that yet, so my planned post for this week was going to be about my appointment for my treatment for Crohn's. But I can't have that treatment, which I normally receive every 6 weeks, if I'm sick with a cold, flu, fever or on antibiotics. This week I can tick 3 of those boxes, so no treatment. It's delayed 12 days, which is a gamble with my health but there's absolutely nothing anyone can do about it. I'm on a 10-day course of penicillin and I have to be off antibiotics for 24 hours and the clinic has to fit me back into their full schedule (these appointments are booked 6-8 weeks out). Like I said, I'm "living with an unpredictable and chronic illness: Crohn's Disease, and all that comes with it" and this is part of the package.
With that, I'm putting the missed treatment out of my head and proceeding with caution. Here's hoping all remains stable and in a couple weeks we are back to our regularly scheduled programming. Once again.

Motorola has just posted an update to the Touchless Control app from the Moto X and the trio of Verizon DROID handsets. This new update allows for deeper voice recognition and fixes some bugs as well. The version 4.1 update brings the ability to unlock the handset by muttering the lock code and can also handle more Google Now commands without having to touch the device. Motorola has detailed all the changes in the official changelog:
- More Google Now commands now work without having to unlock your phone first. Personal information such as emails, messages, and contacts are still protected by your PIN or password.
- Say your pin to unlock your phone when using Touchless Control.
- New listening tone when you say "OK Google Now".
- Compatible only with Android 4.4 KitKat.
- Bug fixes.
This is certainly a noteworthy update and is only compatible with Android 4.4 KitKat. As all variants of the Moto X have been updated to Android 4.4, you can head over to the link below and download the app.

It's time to go "Back to School!" For some children this is an exciting time they are looking forward to. For others, "back to school" means brings fear and trepidation depending upon their previous experiences and ability to enjoy social interactions.
Although it may seem that our children's fears are often unfounded, they are real to them and should be taken seriously.
Often times a parent's natural reaction is to attempt to comfort the child and to minimize their fears. This may do little for the actual problem. One way that may be more helpful is to brain storm about how the problem can be fixed instead.
I suggest taking the child to speak with the teacher and get them to share their fears. Help them find ways to stay safe in the school if ever they are afraid, such as playing close to the recess supervisor or sitting up front in the classroom. Being able to say "stop" loudly enough to the bully so that the teachers and assistants can hear and become aware of what is happening or making advance plans to sit with someone familiar in the crowded lunchroom.
Problem solving is a way to empower your children and give them hope. It helps them visualize the ability to take control of a situation where they may have felt helpless in the past. Feeling empowered can help build self-confidence and teaches children it's ok to have healthy boundaries. Healthy self esteem lowers personal anxiety in stressful situations. It also helps with integration into new environments and the confidence to make friends more easily.
My best to you and your child this school year!

Hello Traveling Companions,
I'm Andy "Cure" Cureado, reporting on Crealitation again, for Camp Now, from the northern plains of South Dakota, where blue skies, balmy temperatures and a buffeting prairie wind have placed a smile on my face and a song in my heart. All is exactly as it should be.
My role at Camp Now has been joyfully in motion. Most recently, I've been focusing on uploading music and related artwork to our demo platform, Camp Now Music. Any music uploaded to BandCamp is eligible to be chosen for further development through the Crealitation platform. Most of the work right now is coming from the Lizzie West archives, with the exception of my song and video To Be Here. Similar uploads are underway at CD Baby and videos are being posted on Creality TV. I am also continuing to engage in various community management activities. All of the roles that I have played here continue to teach and entertain. Being part of such a talented team lights the candle of inspiration for me.
My deepest connection to Crealitation remains my more than 3 years of activity in The Egg Room. The Egg Room is an incubatory site where you practice the process of Crealitation, created by Cassidy A. Maze. In The Egg Room, I've met others who are traveling similar yet unique journeys while exploring my own interests to better understand what I truly love and how to spend my time in those authentic activities. The Egg Room is where the practice of Crealitation unfolds and where you can learn to create your own reality. Cassidy A. Maze personally shares her own practices in this venue, along with ongoing posts from her team demonstrating how they are bringing her work to life.
It is my understanding that those who have sent in their snail mail addresses will be receiving the first invites to the next Egg Room focus group that will be happening in the next month. As The Egg Room evolves it will become more and more available to larger groups of people. For the time being we will be testing one focus group at a time. Interested in learning more? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter The Core.
Part of the learning process, of course, is unlearning. A recent "unlearning lesson" for me focused on a commonly recognized map of the world. It is based on a map projection made by Flemish cartographer Gerardus Mercator in the 16th century. The map possesses the advantage of providing navigational consistency, but dramatically distorts size of continents as latitude increases toward either pole. A second map, known as the Gall-Peters Projection, was developed to illustrate the accurate area of land masses. A couple examples of the distinction: In reality, Africa is actually 14 times larger than Greenland while South America is roughly twice the size of Europe.
So what does this have to do with Crealitation and our work at Camp Now? Simply that we are all reminded to remember that what we have been taught is only true within a specific set of limitations. How we see our world, our relationship to it and the interaction continually taking place among all life is not carved in stone, but rather fluid and continually awaiting further discovery.
The process is ongoing. It requires an open mind and an open heart. Accordingly, we seek to maintain the flexibility to be comfortable in proceeding with what we know while recognizing that what we know is in flux, constantly changing, as our understanding expands. To embrace what we know, what we don't know and the challenge of reconciling that with the unknowable, is the path of being human. For me, it is also at the heart of the great work accomplished every day at Camp Now.
My personal Crealitation experience continues to unfold. My daily work is what I love – writing music, stories and identifying what gifts I have within me that will be of benefit to others on this extraordinary trek home.
Until next time, keep unlearning!
– Cure

Our Breastfeeding Journey (So Far) + Useful Items for Breastfeeding
The links in this post contain affiliate links and I will receive a small commission if you make a purchase after clicking on my link.
This time last year, during National Breastfeeding Month, I wrote a post about our formula feeding journey with my daughter Annabella when she was a baby. I wrote about the guilt I had felt because I could not breastfeed Annabella, although I had wanted to so badly. I looked forward to it throughout my pregnancy, so I was crushed when we learned she had a protein allergy and needed special formula.
During my pregnancy with Addie, I again looked forward to trying to breastfeed. This time, however, I also prepared myself to give my baby formula in case she had the same condition as Annabella.
After Addie's birth, I immediately tried to help her latch on. Doubt crept in early as I struggled to remember everything I've read about how to nurse a baby. Luckily, we had several nurses and two different lactation consultants help us figure out what we were doing.
Now that we are almost 4 weeks into breastfeeding, it's going great. It is beautiful and amazing. But it is still hard. It's hard being the only one who can feed her right now. It's not always convenient when we're out in public. But it is so rewarding for me to see her gaining weight and getting a little chubbier each day.
I don't know how long I will continue to breastfeed Addie. Sometimes I want to quit and just give her a bottle because it would give my body a break. But I also love doing it so much. My goal is three months. And if I make it to three months, maybe I can make it to six months. And by then, maybe I will even want to breastfeed for a year. I don't know yet.
For now, I will enjoy feeding my baby this way when I can. It is truly miraculous to be able to breastfeed. I probably wouldn't have made it even this long without some help. Besides the lactation consultants, Facebook groups, and texts to my own sister, here are some items that have helped me as well.
1. Lansinoh® Smartpump™ Double Electric Breast Pump
For the first week of breastfeeding, I would become too engorged for Addie to latch on. She would become frustrated and just cry. Once I could pump a little bit, she would latch on a lot easier. Not only that, I really like this pump. I used a Medela pump in the hospital, but this Lansinoh pump is much more comfortable for me to use.
These Target brand nursing pads are comparable to name brand pads, and they are much more affordable. I have to use nursing pads almost all day, and I don't mind wearing these.
3. Lanolin
I didn't feel any pain or discomfort for the first couple of weeks of nursing, but I found myself needing some lanolin after Addie cluster fed almost all night one night. Even if I don't need this entire tube, I can use it as lip balm at night time or even as makeup primer.
I received several samples of these bags and so far I like them a lot. I haven't been pumping very often, but as I start to build up a freezer stash of milk these bags will be helpful.
I use a Bebe au Lait 5-in-1 Jersey Nursing Cover and an Itzy Ritzy Nursing Scarf.
I like the Bebe au Lait cover because it can also be used as a car seat cover and a shopping cart cover. It also has clips on the inside that hold my shirt up so there's one less thing to worry about as I am feeding Addie. I like the Itzy Ritzy scarf because it looks like a scarf that I would actually wear even if I wasn't nursing.
6. Nursing Clothes
I usually wear a lose fitting t-shirt with a tank top underneath, and I always wear a nursing bra or tank top. These are some of my favorites.
Thanks for reading! I will post an update about our breastfeeding journey in a couple months, as well as more items I find useful.

Chyna II: An Honest Review
It takes a confident person to use a hang glider as a getaway vehicle.
Over the years the comic book industry has produced a large number of bad comics, ones with boring characters, appalling art, or those that just so happen to be written by the somehow still employed Scott Lobdell (who really sucks by the way). But when people say the worst of the worst, the title is often thrown around with an air of hyperbole for exaggerated effect. Except of course when I say it, because when I say the 1994 miniseries Lynch Mob is the worst comic of all time I really mean it. To summarize it, every character feels like an uninspired Rob Liefeld homage, the page layouts are nauseating to navigate through and the title is for some reason derived from a hate crime [0.01/5 stars, DO NOT READ]. Though you may be wondering why any of this is relevant when discussing the 2001 Chyna II single issue special (the subject of this review), and that's because in the late 90s, in response to the booming popularity of the Attitude Era, the WWF partnered with Chaos!Comics to to develop a number of books based off their wrestlers. The line focused primarily on the Undertaker, but other stars like Austin, Mankind, and of course Chyna were given titles of their own to star in. Still confused? You see, before picking up Chyna II at my local comic shop, my only other experience with the now defunct Chaos!Comics is the aforementioned Lynch Mob series. So given that Lynch Mob is an irredeemable stain on the medium of comics, my expectations were understandably low when I read Chyna II, by Steven Grant and Mike Deodato Jr. for this review. But honestly, and to my utter shock, the comic turned out much better than it really had any right to be.
To begin with, Chyna is a certifiable badass in this book. We open on a splash page as she holds a pair of gunmen in twin headlocks, kicking a third assailant partially off-page. "This is a SOCIAL event, boys. Now would you call guns SOCIAL?" And right away you're hit with what this comic does exceedingly well; snappy dialogue and exciting action. The story itself feels fairly standard in that late 90s/early 2000s mould. Chyna provides protection to a young woman before she testifies against a mobster in court (with a twist I won't get into here). But while the story is formulaic and basic in terms of character motivations and interplay, you can't help but get caught up in how much fun the comic is. Chyna is playful, confident, and how she's drawn perfectly accentuates both her femininity and her amazonian physique (while also steering clear of depicting her in a lecherous way). And the story keeps up a good pace throughout, giving you enough plot to justify what's happening and sprinkling in action scenes that don't feel too excessive. It even manages to 'wink at the camera' smartly when Chyna offhandedly mentions she's a bodyguard, a reference to the role she played for fellow wrestler, Triple H, early on in her WWF career. Though it does raise certain questions about the nature of this world, wherein the wrestler Chyna has taken center stage in a drama involving mobsters and criminal conspiracies. But if Chyna is the WWF wrestler she plays on TV, is wrestling performative or real in this world? And if she's not a wrestler in this version of reality, why is she called Chyna and what's her backstory? The comic does little to answer any of these questions, but as far as problems go it really is a benign issue.
Interestingly the comic hit store shelves in July of 2001 but Chyna had all but wrapped up her WWF career two months prior (wrestling her last match with the company at the May 2001, Judgement Day Pay-Per-View). And as spectacular as so much of Chyna's career had been with the WWF, somewhere from 2000 onward she'd lost a bit of her shine. Instead of the no nonsense bruiser she'd historically played, she was now doing storylines centered around 'relationship troubles' and having her neck injured by a group of moral busybodies. She'd reached newfound heights in terms of her popularity, but the experience had left her feeling like a less unique character. Which is part of what makes this comic so special, it takes more inspiration from a point in her career where she was a serious contender for the WWF title rather than her time as a playmate of the month which had the unfortunate side effect of dramatically defanging her.
To draw this to a close, if you've ever been a wrestling mark or if you're a fan of high-octane action films, this is the comic for you. While by no means perfect, it's a fun, self-contained story that's written well and looks good, making for a great introduction to comic books. The story itself is a little paper-thin and the characters feel underdeveloped, but given the constraints of time (only being 20 pages long) and how much the comic does right, it's hard to hold such minor gripes against it. If you see one of these at the local comic shop give it a buy; 3.7/5 stars.
Hey if you enjoyed this review, feel free to follow me on Twitter or checkout my own comic over on Tumblr.

Caring for Oriental Lilies
I bought these lilies and it says they will grow 20" tall. Should I plant them in a pot or in the ground? I also live in New Mexico where it is dry and windy. What do you recommend?
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
You can grow them in sun to part shade with fertile, well-draining soil. Bulbs are normally quite resilient as far as growing conditions go and are suitable for both the garden and container envionments, so this choice is really up to you. However, the plant will require additional water in a pot, especially if your region is dry and windy. Speaking of this, other plants that respond well to these conditions include xeriscape plants. The following articles should help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/special/xeriscape/drought-tolerant-flowers.htm, https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/special/spaces/wind-resistant-plants-for-your-windy-garden.htm

Fall is my favorite time of the year! I love everything about it...the food, the cooler weather, nights by the fire looking up at the stars, but mostly I love the clothes! The weather is finally beginning to get a little cooler here in North Carolina and I have been thinking about how to dress for fall while still staying cool. I'm sure we will still have a bit of warm weather before the real cold sets in. I've also been trying to incorporate white jeans into my fall wardrobe by styling them with darker tops and booties. I have a bit of an obsession with booties because they give me some height and are still comfortable to wear all day.
This is a classic fall look. Perfect!
I love this look with the hat. I bought my first one ever to wear this fall!
This look is great for cooler days.
I found the following pictures on a blog called Hi Sugarplum!
Check it out, I think you will love it!
I love this very casual look but it could easily be dressed up with a darker jacket and different white jeans.
Very classic!
The layered necklaces and open toe shoes give this look a dressy feel while still being casual.
Poppy Delevingne does no wrong. I love everything she wears!
Stripes are always a good choice.
Sleeveless coats are huge for fall!
I hope this post has inspired you to pull out your fall clothes and start incorporating them into your wardrobe. I always love having new ideas for wearing last seasons clothes. You can feel like you have a whole new wardrobe just by adding a few new pieces to what you already have! Get creative and express yourself!
Please leave comments in the box below and don't forget to sign up for email inspiration each time I post!

What we (don't) want to see from the incoming AMLO administration
On December 1, 2018, Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) will become President of Mexico. He begins his term on shaky ground with investors following a poorly executed referendum and subsequent cancelation of a Mexico City airport project in late October.
Since the referendum, Mexican assets have been quite volatile—equities and the peso have sold off and 10-year government bond yields have risen. Is this reaction justified or have investors overreacted to AMLO's tactics?
Here are three things that we don't want to see from AMLO's administration:
- Interference with the central bank. The Banco de México (Banxico) is a strong, credible, and autonomous central bank. Any attempt to exert undue influence or interfere with monetary policy would be very concerning.
- Any moves to undermine the new U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). AMLO, initially a foe of NAFTA, has made positive comments about the new trade deal. He's expected to sign the deal, along with U.S. and Canadian leaders at the G20 summit. However, legislators from the three countries still need to approve the agreement before it goes into effect.
- A reversal of the previous administration's historic energy reforms. It's clear that AMLO will take a more nationalistic approach to energy than his predecessor; however, his new Secretary of Energy has spoken about a pragmatic energy agenda, mixing old and new ideas together. Although we are disappointed with some of AMLO's proposed energy policies, a reversal of the 2013 energy reform would be an unambiguous negative.
AMLO has been keenly aware of the frosty reception he has received from investors, who are worried about how his policies will affect the Mexican economy and asset prices. Therefore, he has quietly been paying attention to market sentiment as it relates to the peso and MBonos.
We think it is a constructive sign that AMLO is factoring in market sentiment, though we will be closely looking for any of the warning signs above. AMLO and his Morena party will be looking to build momentum over the next three years; if they manage to build a two-thirds legislative majority after the 2021 midterm elections, it will remain to be seen whether they will amend the constitution and rollback the important reforms enacted by his predecessors.
In our opinion, this fourth and biggest wildcard risk is something to watch closely in the longer term.
MBonos refers to Mexico's government bonds.
The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) – Spanish: Tratado de Libre Comercio de América del Norte, TLCAN; French: Accord de libre-échange nord-américain, ALÉNA – is an agreement signed by Canada, Mexico, and the United States, creating a trilateral trade bloc in North America. The agreement came into force on January 1, 1994.
The United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA; Spanish: Acuerdo Estados Unidos-México-Canadá, AEUMC; French: Accord États-Unis-Mexique-Canada, AÉUMC) is a pending free trade agreement between Canada, Mexico, and the United States, intended to replace the current North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). It is the result of the 2017–2018 renegotiation of NAFTA by its member states, which informally agreed to the terms on September 30, 2018, and formally on October 1. Final ratification and implementation is pending.
The Group of Twenty (also known as the G-20 or G20) is an international forum for the governments and central bank governors from 20 major economies. The members include 19 individual countries—Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States—along with the European Union (EU). The EU is represented by the European Commission and by the European Central Bank.

I watched a docu on the mythical Troy, and in the area where people think it mught be, the population pronounced "Trojan" like "troy-an" with the soft "j". so I can see where "Troia" came from...... and my take on the Italian translation? Couldn't care less, as that's not where her name came from.
But personally I'd prefer her name be Darkstar, although I know that has it's own issues (apart from having two "star" names in the family... well three with Redstar -- if he still exists...lol)
