Nerd Hero Wants To Use Science To Make A Real-Life Wizarding Pub In LondonBy Jaime Lutz
Many Harry Potter-inspired venues—and by now, there really is quite a handful—end up being a little disappointing because they don't actually feature real magic. But The Cauldron—a proposed London-based "wizarding pub"—might end up coming closest, by using existing technology to mimic the magic of fantasy novels.
Designer Matthew Cortland's proposed pub would feature floating candles, magic wands that can turn on fireplaces and pour drafts of beer, cocktails that resemble potions, and a menu featuring food from the world of fantasy novels. Patrons are even encouraged to read while they're having a pint—the pub will be filled to the brim with books, Cortland promises. And that might be the most magical part of all.
Though yes, those floating candles are wicked cool.
"I kept coming back to the idea of the Weasley Clock — you know, the one that displays the location of the Weasley family members instead of the time," Cortland said in an interview with Mashable. "That clock is completely possible to make with our current technology, and after designing prototypes I began wondering about what else from fantasy books is actually possible to make. What else has already been made? What could be adapted?"
"I found that many magical elements already exist in some form, and with some alteration and great design, I could bring them together in an authentic and interactive experience that adult fans like me would love," he added.
And, as a former educator, he's hoping that the pub will be a spot for school trips and classroom experiences, in order to share with students his love of reading and technology. Cortland's pub is also partnering with the Harry Potter Alliance's Accio Book campaign, which gives beloved children's books to classrooms in need.
Cortland is crowdfunding the pub in a Kickstarter campaign, with a $500,000 goal to conjure the Cauldron into existence. "Our ability to reach our target of $500,000 now rests in the capable hands of the fandom," he told Mashable. "It's an ambitious sum of money, but not unheard of for Kickstarter and is the minimum that we need to make the Cauldron a reality."
Plus the rewards are awesome—one of them includes getting your face in one of the moving wizard photos hanging on the Cauldron's wall.
The Kickstarter campaign isn't up until June 26, but you can sign up at thecauldron.io for updates.

Fashionable goodies of the last festivals are available HERE
NEWSLETTER ARCHIVE 2002 March, 2002
Newsletter 28.03.2002Recently my shiatsu therapist said, that from my eyes she can tell that my kidneys are "whistling out of their last hole" as they say in German. Worn out. Basically defunct. Get a rest! she said. Later, i said. Now, she said.
Well, kidneys are not really my biggest concern, dear friend. What I AM bothered about is that my colleagues at ImPulsTanz will finally put out first bits of their programmation, so that busy humans like you can get your summer planned. After some twinkling with my specifically applied fake XL-eyelashes (and finally the threat that they gonna lose YOU) they promised to do so. Right around Easter. On http://www.ImPulsTanz.com. Sweat pants, water bottle, imperial theatres and all. As a warmup you may also check the headlines there and thus learn more about the whereabouts of gems like Meg Stuart or David Zambrano (until summer - then they'll be at ImPulsTanz, so I heard...).
Talking about it: In an icecream contest once run together with Doug Elkins for an extended weekend, Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia tied on first place due to their politically entirely uncorrect voluptuousness. I think the USA should be cancelled from the list of rogue countries because of Ben & Jerry. Although Ben & Jerry is now owned by Unilever. You know, when I once grew up with Steve Paxton, dimensions were not that complex, yet... the Beatles were good, the Stones evil. Broadway-Jazz good, improvisation evil. Hollywood good, Film noir evil. And all evil was good. A damn easy time, this was...
Should you have time these days, easy OR heavy, check out http://dans.pagina.nl (a pretty insane collection of dance related links (yes, scottish country style is on there, also break dance, ballet and so on). You don't have THAT much time? How about http://www.springdance.nl - lots of promising young choreographers from Brazil, Poland, Portugal etc, among them danceWEB alumnis. For the sleepless among you, however, the sleepless at ImPulsTanz put about 400 performances, workshops and auditions in their EventDataBase, residing on http://www.ImPulsTanz.com
No advise for the dance-o-phobe this time - go & see some dance! Like me, in NYC, Paris and Brussels, this weekend! Support our art form! You!
Thank you.

Rose Gua Sha | Natural Lifting Tool
Detox effect for the skin
Stimulates the skin | Intensive lymphatic drainage
Tightens facial skin & reduces wrinkles
Anti Aging – Pushes Collagen Production
De-Stress: Relaxes face muscles
🌿 100% natural 🐰 no animal testing
🚚 Immediately available
Use the Rose Gua Sha 1-2 times a week in the evening before using a serum/oil. Approximately 5 minutes and then your face will be slightly reddened, which is a very good sign because the skin then is well-activated.
Ideally, you should cleanse your facial skin thoroughly before use. Then apply the Hyaluron Supreme Serum and massage it in with pressure + Rose Gua Sha. Thus, the natural active substances of the Hyaluron unfold extremely well, because the skin can absorb them ideally.
Place the Rose Gua Sha in the middle of your face and then slide with pressure (may be a little tighter) constantly along the face up to the ears. For different applications we have developed different shapes on the stone for respective facial areas. The notch is for the chin area, the flat sides for the cheeks and forehead.
Cheeks and neck Tightening & Destress:
Use the notched side to slide with the Rose Gua Sha along your chin, while the short and smooth side is for your neck. The two longer sides are for the cheeks.
Forehead De-Stress:
Slide with the short, smooth side from the middle of the forehead to the ear. 3-6 repetitions per spot with pressure.
Better circulation / activation for serum & oil:
Slide with one of the long sides along the cheeks to the neck.
Against Puffy Eyes:
With the cooled rose Gua Sha, stroke from under the eyes up to the ears.
Always only in one direction from the midpoint of the face to the outside.
The Rose Gua Sha consists of 100% natural rose quartz for a full development of its effect as a protective and healing stone.

I saw reports that Jamie Lynn was pregnant for a second time just a short three months after giving birth to her daughter, Maddie Briann, and initially, I laughed it off as the National Enquirer trying to sell copies of their rag once again. However, there are now several people picking up the story, which always makes me give it more credit, and her reps are denying it. Now I find that usually when the reps start talking, there's something to hide or something to share. When the news is no news, reps usually can't be bothered squashing every rumor. From the Enquirer,
"In a blockbuster world exclusive, The ENQUIRER has learned that the 17-year-old Zoey 101 starlet is now expecting for the second time – a mere three months after giving birth on June 19 to baby Maddie Briann. Jamie's desperate to keep the shocking news secret and some people close to her are urging Jamie Lynn to consider ending the pregnancy, sources say. "Jamie Lynn is about eight weeks pregnant, and she and her mom Lynne are hysterical," revealed a close source. "Neither of them knows what to do, but for now they're trying to keep the news from getting out." Too late. The unplanned pregnancy came as a shock to Jamie Lynn, who'd been breast-feeding her infant daughter Maddie Briann, insiders say. "Jamie Lynn believed she couldn't get pregnant while she was breast-feeding," said the close source. "She'd expected to have her period by early September." A home pregnancy test came back positive and Jamie Lynn cried her eyes out, said the source."
Also, the fact that she may have gotten pregnant because she thought she couldn't when she's breastfeeding doesn't surprise me either. NOT because I think she's an idiot, as so many other people do, but because lots of women think that when you're breastfeeding you can't get pregnant. I think it really is sad if it's true and I think it's sadder that her friends and family want her to terminate. She definitely is very young to be a mother of two but it does seem like she has a good support system around her, no matter how crazy they may all be. Good luck, Jamie Lynn.

If your life is anything like my own there was a time when you could drink all night, eat a kebab, get thirty minutes sleep then wake up feeling like nothing had happened.
Now though, ever since I began the startlingly short journey out of my twenties, my hangovers have become unbearable, so much so that if I get drunk I'm basically a useless blob of human coloured flesh for close to 48 hours.
But what's caused my transformation from alcohol powered terminator to a rusted old wreck who breaks out in a cold sweat at just the mention of the word tequila?
Well apparently it's all to do with my age and I've got some bad news for you, it happens to all of us.
According to Business Insider it's because as your body get's older is ability to break down alcohol becomes less efficient. This leaves a nasty chemical called acetaldehyde in your body and this is the nasty stuff in alcohol that leaves you feeling so bad in the morning.
Acetaldehyde causes nausea, headaches and dizziness and is, rather worryingly, a probable carcinogen.
The news gets worse for us old folks though. As you get older you may have noticed that you don't grow taller anymore, instead you get wider as you gain body fat.
And unfortunately despite the old wives tale that larger people can handle their drinks more fat means less space for the alcohol to diffuse as the fat can't absorb it.
The older you get as well the less water there is sloshing about in your body, meaning that when you drink the alcohol still in your system the next day is far more concentrated than it would be normally.
Finally, and perhaps most depressingly, as you get older you just have more general stress which puts pressure on your body regardless of alcohol. Told you it was depressing.
At least when you get older though you always have an excuse to stop drinking, like a squash game or shopping for falafel. God being old is boring.

He credits his success to three core techniques, name repetition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake.

trans happenings, part 2
Another major upcoming trans-related event is actually part of a project I'm working on at the moment: the undergraduate production of Eve Ensler's The Vagina Monologues. While Ensler requires that all productions of her show include certain of her original monologues, she allows some wiggle room for the rest. This year's undergraduate production (I specify undergraduate because the Divinity School did the show this year as well, performing it in a church and selling "God loves vaginas" t-shirts. Kudos to them!) will include three original monologues focusing on transgender people and their significant others, friends, family and allies (known in nifty shorthand as SOFFAs*). The pieces are based on anonymous email submissions that circulated over the BGLSTA list earlier this year; they've been adapted into monologues by a team of writers, directors, actresses and consultants.
Including transgendered characters in the show is interesting and important for a number of reasons, but one of the most striking statements it makes is that "The Vagina Monologues" is not synonymous with "The Woman Monologues" because not everyone who has a vagina is a woman. (more in expanded post)

(more in expanded post)
The people working on the "trans monologues," as they've come to be known, have faced an extremely difficult, delicate task. They needed to be able to convey the feelings and experiences of real people by turning them into characters. They had to stay close to the original words in order to honor their authenticity, yet make them theatrically powerful enough to resonate with audience members who have given little or no thought at all to transgenderism.
Also at issue was the question of who should perform the monologues. Some feel that it would be inappropriate to require that a transgender person play a transgender character—such a mandate would fly in the face of producers' efforts to avoid typecasting in the show (for instance, a white actress, in character, recalls getting her period for the first time by saying the line, "Fifteen, black and poor, blood on the back of my dress in church."). Others, however, feel strongly that trans actors must participate in the performance; otherwise, the production itself would be perpetuating a problem that one of the trans monologues points out: "talking about trans people like they're not there." Speaking on behalf of the voiceless is important, but only up until the point at which we can speak for ourselves. At a certain point, allies need to be able to step back and support, rather than represent.
Come out and see the show this Thursday, Friday, or Saturday and make up your own mind about the trans monologues (and just enjoy a great production). Tickets are $8 for students and always sell very fast, so stop by the box office soon! If you have any immediate thoughts, too, as always, we'd love to hear them.
*update: In a writing rush, I incorrectly wrote "SAFAs" instead of "SOFFAS" because I remembered what the acronym sounds like and its general gist, but couldn't remember what it stands for and meant to look it up later, but forgot. A guardian angel of sorts emailed me to correct my error. Thanks to them and to everyone for your patience and kindness.

"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see." – Henry David Thoreau
I'm as guilty as the next person when it comes to an utter inability to slow down — to stop running from one thing to another, to stop the to-do lists from churning through my mind — to just slow down and smell the proverbial roses.
When I find my life getting a little too crazed, a walk in the garden or in the woods often helps to refocus my mind and allow me reconnect with nature; to really stop and see the world around me – and what a beautiful world it is!

Coburn Lifts Arizona Past Arizona State, 5-3
April 30, 2002
TUCSON--No. 2-ranked Arizona got the biggest key hit of the game, atwo-run home run by Jackie Coburn in the bottom of the seventh, to beat No.5 Arizona State, 5-3, before a crowd of 2,987 in college softball actionTuesday night.
Neither team could get many hits in key situations, with each stranding 10runners. Coburn's blast was the Cats seventh hit of the game and cameagainst ASU starter Erica Beach (25-11), though the Sun Devils switched herand Kirsten Voak eight times in the game.
UA's Jennie Finch (27-2) gave up six hits, walked five and only struck outonly three to earn the victory for the Wildcats, 45-7 overall and 12-3 inPac-10 play. Beach threw a combined four and one-third innings, allowingsix hits and all five of the Wildcats' runs.
ASU dropped to 38-14 overall and 8-7 in league action.
Lovie Jung walked, Courtney Fossatti singled and an out later LeneahManuma was hit by an Erica Beach pitch to load the bases for Arizona in thebottom of the first. Mackenzie Vandergeest hit the next pitch for a two-rundouble to give UA a quick 2-0 lead. ASU brought in Kirsten Voak to pitchand she struck out Coburn and Jenny Gladding, both looking, to end the rally.
Two defensive plays helped Arizona thwart a Sun Devil rally in the top ofthe fourth. Crystal Farley robbed Beach of an extra-base hit, snagging adeep fly ball on the run at the fence in center field for the first out.
But ASU loaded the bases off UA pitcher Jennie Finch with a walk, an erroron Voak's grounder when second baseman Lisha Ribellia dropped a force-playthrow, and a single by Kristin Farber. Jennifer Forner then singled in arun to cut the lead to 2-1, but UA third baseman Lovie Jung snared a linedrive by Missy Hixon and doubled off Voak with a tage for the third out.
UA loaded the bases with no outs in the fourth but came up empty. JennyGladding led off with a double down the left field line, and CandaceAbrams sacrificed her to third and was safe at first on a fielding error byASU second baseman Hixon. Farley walked to load the bases. But Beach, whohad returned to pitch in the second, got a line-out and two ground balls tostop the rally.
Shortstop Kara Brun hit her ninth home run of the year, an Arizona Statesingle-season record, with one out in the fifth to tie the game, 2-2.
Arizona regained the lead with one hit in the fifth but stranded threerunners again. Manuma drew a walk off Beach to open the inning and ASUcoach Linda Wells brought Voak back in to pitch, the 14th of 18 defensiveswitches for the Devils in the game. Vandergeest singled. Beach struck outCoburn, walked Gladding to load the bases, struck out Abrams and walkedFarley to force in a run. A fielder's choice by Jung stopped the rally.
The Devils put a runner in scoring position in the sixth with a walk byVoak and a sacrifice by Forner, but Finch got Hixon to ground out and endthe opportunity.
ASU tied the game on an error in the top of the seventh. Nichole Thompsondrew the fourth walk off Finch and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt byBrun. Finch intentionally walked Phelan Wright and struck out Beach. ASUcatcher Adriana Garcia, with a full count, singled to the hole at secondand Ribellia couldn't get a handle on the ball, allowing Thompson to scorefrom second.
Coburn's hit came after Vandergeest singled to lead off the seventh.Vandergeest was 3-for-3 with two RBI. Forner led ASU with two hits and oneof the Devils' two RBI.

FCHEA Testifies to Congress in Support of Fuel Cell Vehicle Tax Incentives
Justin Lewis
FCHEA Testifies to Congress in Support of Fuel Cell Transportation Tax Credits
On March 14, FCHEA President Morry Markowitz testified at a public hearing held by the Tax Policy Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee on recently expired federal tax incentives.
Mr. Markowitz urged the Committee to reinstate the Fuel Cell Vehicle Tax Credit, and the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property credit. Both credits expired at the end of 2016, but were retroactively reinstated for 2017 as part of the Bipartisan Budget Act passed by Congress last month.
In his testimony, Mr. Markowitz highlighted the benefits of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) and the need to reinstate the equitable incentives thorough a "technology neutral" approach, as opposed to the current tax code which benefits only certain types of zero-emission vehicles.
Following his oral testimony, Mr. Markowitz answered questions from the Subcommittee Chairman Vern Buchanan (R-FL-16) and Congressman John Larson (D-CT-1). FCHEA will continue to work with its member companies, industry partners, and members of Congress to reinstate these crucial FCV tax credits.

British novelist Agatha Christie is widely regarded as one of the best mystery writers of all time and is listed by Guinness World Records as the best-selling novelist of all time. Christie's works are ranked third in the world's rankings of most-widely published books, trailing behind only the works of William Shakespeare and the Bible. Aside from her 66 detective novels, Christie also published several plays. Luckily for mystery fans, one of those plays is coming to Houston this month to thrill audiences with a mystery that leaves them guessing until the curtain comes down. Even better, you can get half-off tickets to this thrilling production if you act now.
Witness for the Prosecution is one of Christie's most accomplished plays. The play tells the tale of Leonard Vole, a man accused of murdering wealthy older woman Emily French. French had made Vole the principal heir to her estate shortly before her death, casting suspicion on him when she suddenly dies. Much of the play occurs in the courtroom as various witnesses and prosecutors attempt to unravel the mystery of Miss French's death.
The play is being put on by Houston's own The Company OnStage theater. Since 1977, the Company OnStage has brought a variety of classics, comedy, mystery, drama, and fairy tales to the stage through the efforts of volunteers. The Company OnStage also devotes much of its efforts to educating and developing the best young talent here in Houston through its Young Audience Series productions.
Tickets for Witness for the Prosecution start at $18, but you can get them for just $9 through Goldstar.com. All it takes is a free Goldstar.com membership which you can sign up for with any valid email address of Facebook account.
Witness for the Prosecution will be performed Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays in October from October 5 through October 27. Friday and Saturday shows are at 8:00 and Sunday matinee shows are at 2:00 p.m.

Every bGeigie data file that is uploaded goes through Safecast's moderation process before it is approved and included in our maps. The technical process of moderation is pretty simple. But judgement and alertness are required:
— Every moderator on the <email@example.com> mailing list will receive regular automated emails from <email@example.com > with the subject "A Safecast import is awaiting approval."
— In the body of the email it will say, "There is a Safecast import awaiting moderator approval. Click here to view it." Other information about the upload will be visible in the email.
— Alternatively, moderators can go to https://api.safecast.org/, and use links on the left-hand side under "bGeigie Imports for moderators." These include "not processed" and "not approved." These will open lists of files in each category. Only "not approved" will generally be useful.
— The list of unapproved files in the API can also easily be accessed from <https://api.safecast.org/>, by selecting "bGeigie Imports" from the left-hand column. In the page that opens, results can easily be filtered using the horizontal control bar at the top of the page; moderators will generally want to select "Submitted." Clicking "Uploaded At" will sort the results to put the most recent at the top. The link below will open this page with these filter settings set:
— Upon clicking the link to an upload file, the upload will appear in a familiar Safecast API upload page, with several moderator controls visible. These include "approve" and "reject" buttons, as well as a "send email to uploader" link, to be used for queries.
— Please examine the data closely. Basically, if any data points well over background are visible, we discuss it among ourselves, and if necessary, email the uploader for clarification. Other cases will require judgement as well, and it's best to discuss them with the others.
— We rarely reject an upload outright. If it's questionable, we send an email to the uploader, and from time to time it's clear that there was an operator error, or device malfunction, or other problem which means the file should not be approved. If you think the file should not be immediately approved because of outstanding questions, please add a note to that effect in the metadata, such as "Moderator comment: Hold for approval pending verification of hotspot."
— Other things to keep in mind:
— Sometimes users have not correctly indicated the "type of measurement."
— If it's taken in an airplane or helicopter, it should be set to "cosmic."
— "Drive" files should be at about 1m height.
— Ground-level measurements should be "surface" type. Users sometimes measure at ground level without switching out of log mode, and include those measurements in a "drive" upload. This tends to happen when they find "interesting" radiation levels and forget. If you think this might have happened, discuss it and send an email if it seems advisable.
— Sometimes users submit readings that were taken on the upper floors of buildings. Generally these are not useable.
— Generally we approve data taken from boats, but by all means discuss it if you have questions.
— We accept a certain amount of GPS drift, but sometimes it's clear that the GPS is way off. These cases should be discussed.
— Mistakes happen. Sometimes an experienced and trusted user will mistakenly upload data they later realize is bad (because they had sources in the car next to the bGeigie, for instance), or a moderator will approve something that had errors in it. Errors like these can be masked out of the map after they're approved, but it's a major pain. Please be alert.
— Regarding files which remain in the "Processed" category, users often neglect to click "submit" on their uploads. We periodically send them inquiries, but this list tends to get very long.
Feel free to send questions to the other moderators.
The API is a work in progress, with constant incremental improvements for both users and moderators. feel free to suggest improvements!

I like the double bottom formation the particular Nasdaq, auto glass . you with a weekly chart, look at just how devastating this Bear Market has first been. A lot of wealth devastation. Throw that to the destruction in wealth caused together with residential property market, and even more losses in commercial property development, and the destruction of wealth is the greatest since the 1930's.
The Government Accountability Office, in its November 2011 report, also revealed that for a 10-year period from 2000 to 2010 the associated with vacant residential properties rose by 51 percent across spain. From 7 million in 2000, it went up to 10 million.
You cannot accomplish anything without taking 100% responsibility for your wealth to start with. Folks that inactive responsibility prefer to blame others or circumstances beyond their control. The one thing that a person are control is your ability to adopt responsibility for the good and the bad.
However, in "Mr. Shmooze," it is the act of asking questions and listening in order to understand what people commercial real estate investing need (not just in business, but in life) which usually giving of yourself to assist them to. Energizing others, making them feel special, and adding value to people's day-to-day lives just what Mr. Shmooze is tips on. He is constantly giving people special gifts and otherwise letting people know that he's thinking of them and cares about them. He gives more than he takes and is here to learn that, when he does this, he gets plenty back to return, both personally and professionally.
Transit Driven. Believe it or not, this project is in order to end up being a transit oriented development. Look at this article in the Deseret News and an excellent from the Salt Lake Tribune. Both of them indicate that in as few as three years downtown Sugar House could be served along with a trolley car transportation grouping. This line would go from the 21st south TRAX station straight east and doubtless terminate near this project's site.
I discover something, something that suits me in alternative ideas that I made it worse ever think. Something that will give me freedom, creativity, good as well as a non-stifling environment. But even basically end up taking achievable as something else, something I never intended, or perhaps if it's almost everything I intended, this time, it to generate me happy. One day, when I least expect it, I may even become a specific Adults I speak about with such distance.

OBC Field Trip No. 10 (Bad Tom Smith Brewing)
Bad Tom Smith Brewing has an interesting story and a somewhat complicated past just like its namesake, "Bad" Tom Smith, an outlaw in the 1890s from Eastern Kentucky. Established in 2013 as Double Barrel Brewery, Bad Tom Smith Brewing has already undergone name and ownership changes.
The past however does not represent the present and is not the plan for the future. New owners have brought new life, new energy and new resources to Bad Tom Smith Brewing. OBC recently had the opportunity to visit the brewery and with new owner John Vojtush. We feel good things are on the horizon for Bad Tom Smith.
Nestled near the corner of Beechmont and Eastern Avenues on Cincinnati's East Side, Bad Tom Smith's tap room is small yet inviting. Quite simply, that's the plan. According to its website, "we want the focus to be on our beers and a simple, nice atmosphere to get away and enjoy time relaxing with friends and beer." A nice atmosphere indeed as the tap room quickly filled during our visit with a nice mix of young, after-business and family patrons.
Notwithstanding its past, the beer remains Bad Tom Smith's focus. It's goal - to serve "Bad Ass in a Glass." Bold motto - but more importantly - an accurate motto. We enjoyed ourselves through a few flights and determined the American Brown Ale to be our favorite. With a new head brewer and new equipment, Bad Tom Smith has a solid plan in place to continue to deliver on its motto.
Cincinnati is home to many great craft breweries and Bad Tom Smith has found its place among them. Cheers to #BadAssInAGlass!

Christmas is well on it's way, and if you've got something to creative sell/are often amongst the bustle of central London then you'll be feeling this even more acutely. This year I'm excited, and it's even nicer to be selling in a shop over the period that offers super nice gift ideas, from emerging British designers. The shop is called Things British, and is situated in carnaby street's Kingly Court. On sale there I have the small versions of my silk scarves, tote bags, drawings and hair accessories, alongside some other lovely jubbly designers.
To get an idea of what I have on offer there check out my FOLKSY shop. But you should totally pop in, because you'll find some other awesome stuff as well as mine.

Picture perfect
Lester and Betty Guttman leave a legacy at the Smart Museum.
Over a half‑century marriage and a quarter century of working together at Argonne National Laboratory, Lester and Betty, SB'43, Guttman built a collection of 830 photographic works by 414 artists. After Lester died in 2006 and Betty in 2014, the couple left the collection to the Smart Museum of Art, where it provides "an understanding of the history of photography and its various episodes in an informed way that has not been possible until now," says UChicago art historian Joel Snyder, SB'61.
Betty Seligman, the only child of an Indiana‑born mother and German immigrant father, met Minneapolis native Lester Guttman at a party at the University. She had transferred to UChicago after growing bored with the traditional ways of her private women's college in Missouri, where she had pursued her love of horseback riding.
Lester had studied chemistry at the University of Minnesota and then the University of California, Berkeley, where he earned his PhD and began his career as a research assistant. In 1946 he joined the James Franck Institute, formerly known as the Institute for the Study of Metals, writing papers on the grain structure of metals, superconductivity, and superfluidity. After a Guggenheim Fellowship and a stint at General Electric Research Laboratory, he ended up at Argonne in 1960.
Betty and Lester worked together at the national lab—he as a senior scientist and editor of the Journal of Applied Physics, she as a technical librarian—retiring in 1986 and 1991, respectively. Married for 50 years, the couple had two daughters and shared many interests, including art, literature, theater, and music. In addition to photography, they also collected orchids and mushrooms in their midrise condo in Kenwood.
Leaving the photography to the Smart through a bequest in their will, the Guttmans gifted their neighborhood museum with a varied and informative collection. "Rather than seeking to collect, for example, all the works of a specific artist, period, or place, or the best known or most precious, the Guttmans' choices grew out of their inquisitiveness and wide‑ranging interests in the world," write professor of visual arts Laura Letinsky and Smart Museum curator Jessica Moss in an exhibit catalog. "It is a thoroughly eclectic and a fantastically personal gathering of images expressive of the Guttmans' full, rich lives."
The collection's historical and conceptual breadth and depth "will be a powerful resource for the object‑driven inquiry that is at the heart of our work at the Smart Museum," says interim director Bill Michel, AB'92, MBA'08. The Guttmans' photographs are on view in a Smart exhibit, There Was a Whole Collection Made: Photography from Lester and Betty Guttman, through December 30.

Internet loss after server connection failure
VileMuskrat last edited by VileMuskrat
Eco Version: 7.2.5
OS Version: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, build 16299)
Router: Netgear
Router Hardware Version: WNDR3700v4
Router Firmware Version: V18.104.22.168
Windows Firewall is On
AntiVirus is Off
Repro steps:
- Launch Eco
- Select "Join"
- Join a server that can't be successfully connected to. For example, a password-protected "nitrado.net Gameserver".
- After the connection fails, try to join another server, and continue doing this up to three times.
By the 3rd attempt or earlier, the server list will be empty after returning from the failed connection attempt, and pressing refresh/stop has no effect. Additionally, alt-tabbing out of Eco to view my connection status indicator in the task-bar shows a connection problem, and other devices on the network also experience an interruption. I found this to be repeatable, with no interruptions occurring over the course of 2 days, except when attempting the repro steps above. I also noted a great deal of instability in the app itself. It would often hang indefinitely on a connection attempt, or crash after I returned to the main menu and attempted to quit.
Definitely no internet interruptions, and the server list should remain stable through multiple connection attempts.

IOP fellow Duncan Haldane shares Nobel Prize in Physics
4 October 2016
Three British-born physicists, including IOP fellow Professor Duncan Haldane, will share this year's Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on exotic states of matter.
Half of the prize will go to Professor David Thouless of the University of Washington and the other half will be shared between Professor Michael Kosterlitz of Brown University, US and Professor Duncan Haldane of Princeton University, US.
Their award is for "theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter". Their work involved using advanced mathematical methods to explain phenomena in unusual phases of matter, the Nobel Foundation said.
All three gained their first degrees at the University of Cambridge, including Haldane, who was born in London. After moving to the US he conducted research at Bell Laboratories and Princeton University, where he is now Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics.
Kosterlitz, who was born in Aberdeen, followed his first degree with a DPhil from the University of Oxford and later collaborated with Thouless, both at the University of Birmingham, where he became a reader, and at Cornell University in the US. He is now a professor of physics at Brown University. His many awards include the IOP's Maxwell Medal and Prize (1981).
Thouless was born in Bearsden, Scotland, and is a fellow of the Royal Society. He gained his PhD at Cornell University and was a professor of mathematical physics at the University of Birmingham before becoming a professor of physics at the University of Washington. Among many awards he received the IOP's Dirac Medal and Prize in 1993.
The IOP's president, Professor Roy Sambles, said: "It is very exciting to celebrate today three British physicists, one of whom is a fellow of the Institute of Physics, who have been recognised for their work in condensed matter and in nuclear matter physics. Collectively their research has brought wide-ranging fresh insights into how materials behave and interact at an atomic level.
"Their work in topological phase transitions, spin glasses, superconductivity, fractional quantum hall effect and so much more has paved the way for many new developments in material physics as well as in the quantum world.
"I hope their pioneering work will continue to inspire the next generation of theorists, particularly British ones, as their collective success illustrates that British physics and British physicists can still lead the world."

I guess I told an unintended fib in my last post. It seems that I just don't have time to give my website/blog the attention it deserves. So, I'll swing by now and again but unless the Earth moves off its axis, I don't expect to be posting regularly. See ya!
Still living and breathing
I'm embarrassed to say that I haven't posted a thing on this site since August of 2017. No excuses except to say that much of my time has been devoted to marketing, More Than a Soldier. I am also in the process of redesigning my website. If you're not well versed in creating a site or blog, it's really quite a challenge. Thankfully, one of my longtime friends is a IT Guru and she's helping me.
In any event, I will do my best to check in from time to time to read any comments and respond to them. Till we meet again, take care.

Stupid Dog Owners
Yes, this is off-topic for me, particularly because I've been posting info on More Than a Soldier, my latest book. In fact, to be truthful, I've probably bored my visitors to tears with my constant nagging. In any event, the purpose of this post has nothing to do with promoting any books; it has to do with complete idiots.
Dogs have collars (as they should). However, when I see some moron walking their dog and yanking on the leash because the dog is too far behind or too far ahead, I'd like to grab that leash and wrap it around THEIR necks and take THEM for a little walk. Not all dog owners do this, of course, but I witness people choking their dogs nearly every day. I have three very simple solutions. #1- Spend a couple bucks and buy a harness that won't strangle your dog when you take him/her for a walk. #2 – The next time you find yourself choking your dog, punch yourself in the throat. #3 – Put your dog up for adoption. If you find a suitable owner, buy a harness and give it to the new owner as a gift. #4 – If you miss having a pet, get a betta fish.

How many times you've been worried that your children will be bored during long family journeys in a car?
Thanks to the rental company Hertz, your children will be happy even during a long trip in a fascinating Colouring-in Car.
Hertz's team upholstered a car from floor to ceiling with the most popular book and cartoon characters, flowers, houses and animals to keep your children amused.
During long trips your kids can paint animals, cartoon characters or simply show their creativity, turning the salon of the car into a canvas on wheels.
For now, the exclusive Hertz car is run for trial at its London Heathrow branch. The company is currently studying the reaction of consumers to decide if the project is successful.
A 2.5% rise in Amazon shares on Thursday means Bezos's wealth has now eclipsed the Microsoft co-founder by $1.4bn, according to the BBC.
Jeff Bezos, 53, owns about 17% of the shares in Amazon, whose value has now exceeded $500bn.
The online retailer reports second quarter results after Wall Street closes on Thursday.
For the first three months of this year Amazon's sales jumped 23% to $35.7bn. The company expects a rise of 16% to 24% for the quarter to June.
In recent years Jeff Bezos has focused on his Blue Origin space rocket business and the Washington Post newspaper, which he bought in 2013.
Soaring technology stocks have fuelled huge growth in the worth of entrepreneurs such as Bezos and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, 33, who is now worth $72.6bn according to Forbes.
It should be recalled that the gap between the richest and the poorest half of the global population is more than previously thought. As of January 2017, just eight men own as much wealth as 3.6 billion people, according to a report by Oxfam.
US fashion brand Michael Kors confirmed Tuesday it had agreed to acquire British shoemaker Jimmy Choo for some 900 million pounds ($1.2 billion, 1 billion euros), according to Deutsche Welle.
It said in a statement the UK firm, whose celebrity fans included Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Nicole Kidman and Kate Middleton, was the "ideal partner" for the US handbag and clothing maker.
"Michael Kors intends to apply the experiences, infrastructure and capabilities that it has developed as a company over the course of its own worldwide growth as a luxury fashion brand to support the growth of Jimmy Choo," the statement added.
Jimmy Choo said, "a combination with Michael Kors would allow it to embark on the next phase of growth and provide opportunities for the benefit of customers, employees, shareholders and other stakeholders."
The group was founded 20 years ago by Malaysia-born Jimmy Choo and British socialite Tamara Mellon.
It became a household name after its shoes repeatedly featured on high-profile TV shows.
Ryanair announced on July 10 that it cancels its planned entrance to Ukraine after the Kiev airport failed to comply with the agreement reached in March at the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine with airport officials and the airport director, Mr Riabikin, according to the official statement.
"Ryanair, Europe's No.1 airline, today (10 July) announced that it has cancelled its planned entry into Ukraine following Kiev airport's failure to honour a growth agreement reached at the Ministry of Infrastructure with airport officials and the current Airport Director General, Mr Riabikin, in March of this year," the airline said.
As we reported in April, Ryanair announced a launch of regular flights from the Kiev airport.
As the airline stated, the Kiev airport instead opted for the protection of airlines with high tariffs (including Ukraine International Airlines) which deprives Ukrainian consumers and visitors of access to the lowest fares in Europe and the widest network of routes. As a result, Ryanair has no choice but to cancel 4 new Kiev routes and 7 new Lviv routes, which will result in the loss of more than 500,000 passengers and 400 jobs, according to the statement.
Ryanair sincerely apologizes to many customers who booked flights with low prices to and from Ukraine, all of which will be contacted by e-mail and will be refunded for canceled flights.
Ryanair also said it will transfer this capacity to competing markets, such as Germany, Israel and Poland instead.
The move shows that the ecommerce giant wants to build warehouses in water reservoirs, lakes etc., probably in order to reduce the storage expenses, Joinfo.com reports with reference to Indian Times.
It should be recalled that in December the media revealed Amazon's plans about drone deliveries from "airborne fulfillment centers," and now it looks like the company plans to take its business underwater.
The patent filed by Amazon describes an underwater facility where goods will be stored in sealed containers.
According to the patent, each container will have a unique "acoustic signal". When a certain sound is played, the system inflates a balloon attached to the package and the container goes up to the surface.
This system will dramatically reduce the time spent by employees or robots to collect items for each order.
However, there is no information if Amazon will implement the system in the near future.
But how much do they really get when they post a picture that is clearly (or unclear) sponsored by a company? Celebrities' posts on Instagram are sponsored and they receive a lot of money from them to share a picture, Joinfo.com reports with reference to NewsMonkey.
But how much exactly?
The British Instagram tool Hopper published a rich list of the highest earning celebrities on Instagram based on their data. US singer Selena Gomez with 122 million followers tops the list, earning – $550,000 per post.
Kim Karadashian with 100 million followers earns $500,000 per post. The most paid man in the line is Cristiano Ronaldo, who has also posed in a pair of underpants of his own brand yesterday. He earns $400,000 per Instagram photo.
The Instagram payroll list of the stars:
Selena Gomez: 122 million followers – $550,000 per post
Kim Kardashian: 100 million followers – $500,000 per post
Cristiano Ronaldo: 104 million followers – $400,000 per post
Kylie Jenner: 95 million followers – $400,000 per post
Kendall Jenner: 81.7 million followers – $370,000 per post
Khloe Kardashian: 68 million followers – $250,000 per post
Kourtney Kardashian: 57.8 million followers – $250,000 per post
Cara Delevingne: 40.4 million followers – $150,000 per post
Gigi Hadid: 34.7 million followers – $120,000 per post
Lebron James: 30.7 million followers – $120,000 per post
Instagram announced in June that it had a new tool for easier identification of whether or not a post was sponsored. Instagram users can mention in the subtitle of their post using the paid partnership label that they are sponsored. With this move, Instagram wants to promote transparency. However, few 'grammers' use it. From Hopper's data, it appears that only a fifth of sponsored posts are clearly indicated.
With 700 million active users a month, Instagram is the ideal way for companies to promote their products and services. The more followers, the higher the earnings. And you do not even need to be a celebrity, influencers also earn a lot of money on Instagram. The highest paid influencer in Hopper's rich list is beauty blogger Huda Kattan has 20.5million followers and earns about $18,000 per post. The British YouTube star Zoella earns $14,000 per sponsored Instagram photo. So, if you want to earn a penny this summer, start an Instagram account.
The hackers attacked Bithumb, a South Korean Bitcoin Exchange with thousands of users. The personal data of more than 30,000 customers were stolen through an employee's private computer. The hack took place in February, but Bithumb discovered the digital burglary only on June 29th.
According to BraveNewCoin, a South Korean newspaper reported that one victim alone claimed that he lost "bitcoins worth 10 million won" instantly. One exchange member claimed that he had "1.2 billion won stolen."
The South Korean authorities have already announced an investigation into the incident. Among other things, it is being examined how it could happen that the hack was discovered so late.

"I feel very lucky that I grew up in a family with amazing businessmen, with my father and my grandfather — they've always been such incredible mentors to me that I've looked up to," she explained. "Just getting advice from my family and growing up with a business mindset, I think that's what really made me the woman I am today and the entrepreneur that I've become."
Hilton also added, "I feel like I accomplished so much already and I'm so proud of what I've done so far. I'm so excited to be following in my family's footsteps and getting involved in real estate and opening up my own properties. Another area I'm really focusing on, the next step in my life, is working on different tech projects involving virtual reality and apps… just really innovative, and game-changing projects with the tech world. That's one area I'm involved in now."
"I think in the next 30 years, people will only work four hours a day and maybe four days a week," Ma said Tuesday during a CNBC interview at the Gateway '17 Conference. "My grandfather worked 16 hours a day in the farmland and [thought he was] very busy. We work eight hours, five days a week and think we are very busy."
The Chinese billionaire also addressed the rise of artificial intelligence, advocating that machines shouldn't be made to replicate human behavior, according to Fortune magazine.
"I don't think we should make machines like humans," Ma said. "We should make sure the machine can do things that human beings cannot do."
He ultimately believes humans will prevail over machines, saying, "humans will win."
But he does believe technology could spark major problems, and even war. "The third technology revolution may cause the Third World War," Ma told CNBC.
Kalanick's departure caps a tumultuous period for the world's largest ride-services company, which upended the taxi industry and transportation regulations globally with Kalanick at the helm, according to Reuters.
"I love Uber more than anything in the world and at this difficult moment in my personal life I have accepted the investors' request to step aside so that Uber can go back to building rather than be distracted with another fight," Kalanick said in a statement first reported by the New York Times and verified by an Uber spokesman.
Kalanick, 40, has faced increased scrutiny in recent weeks following an investigation into the culture and workplace practices at a company he helped start in 2009 and is now the world's most highly valued startup.
But it was a chorus of demands for changes at the top from some of Uber's biggest investors that ultimately forced Kalanick out, according to a source familiar with the matter.
Venture capital firm Benchmark, whose partner Bill Gurley is one of Uber's largest shareholders and sits on its board, as well as investors First Round Capital, Lowercase Capital, Menlo Ventures and Fidelity Investments, all pressed Kalanick to quit.
They delivered a letter to Kalanick while he was in Chicago, the New York Times reported, citing people with knowledge of the situation. The newspaper, which was first to report Kalanick's resignation, said he would remain on Uber's board.
Kalanick's decision "was a surprise to everyone", a second Uber spokesman said.
Kalanick's departure comes after a lengthy investigation led by former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.
Uber hired Holder to look into its culture and workplace practices after a female former employee publicly accused the company of what she described as brazen sexual harassment.
Privately held Uber has been valued at $68 billion, shattering the norms for Silicon Valley startups, and the company embodied many of Kalanick's aggressive and pugnacious personality traits.
Following the release of recommendations stemming from the Holder investigation, which called for increased controls and oversight at the company, Kalanick said last week he would take a leave of absence for an undetermined period.
He said he needed space to grieve the death of his mother, who died recently in a boating accident in which his father was also seriously injured, and to work on his leadership skills.
Gurley, one of Kalanick's closest confidants, praised the CEO on Twitter, after calling for his resignation.
"There will be many pages in the history books devoted to @travisk – very few entrepreneurs have had such a lasting impact on the world," Gurley wrote.


text: Bob-Tail 1911s: Passing Fad or Functional Innovation Dan Johnson - June 23, 2011 A few years ago, Ed Brown introduced an eye-catching Commander-size 1911 called the Kobra Carry. The most distinctive feature was a bob-tail grip frame designed to reduce printing when worn under clothing. The idea seems to be catching on but the jury is still out as to whether it will be a widely popular modification to John Browning's design or simply a passing fad.Manufacturers of 1911 handguns are always on the lookout for new modifications to the classic design to catch the customers' attention. It is most often the smaller custom builders and independent pistolsmiths who lead the way in regards to innovation while the larger manufacturers pick and choose which custom features they believe would appeal to consumers. Dan Wesson was quick to copy the bob-tail 1911 design and Kimber has some bob-tailed beauties in its lineup, but the idea is not yet widespread among major manufacturers. I suspect it soon will be, but I have been wrong before. If you follow the discussions on the various Internet gun forums there does seem to be growing interest. Gunsmiths across the country have seen a surge in customers requesting the bob-tail treatment for existing 1911s. Ed Brown offers the bob-tail mainspring housing as an aftermarket part in both blued and stainless finish and with a choice of smooth, checkered or snakeskin treatment--another Ed Brown innovation that is being copied by other manufacturers. Brownells sells a jig for easy and precise installation of the bob-tail housing and it is a fairly easy installation for a competent gunsmith.Back when Ed Brown first introduced the Kobra Carry I received one on loan for evaluation. My first reaction was it looked cool and certainly set the gun apart from other models, but I was concerned it would be detrimental to the handling characteristics of the 1911. My concerns were quickly dismissed with a trip to the range. Even with my large hands the grip was comfortable and I felt in complete control of the firearm. Some people with smallish hands report the grip is actually improved with the bob-tail treatment. As always, I seek your council. Please use the comment section below to share your opinions on bob-tail 1911s. Is it a passing fad or a functional innovation that is here to stay?

We've been building fences for over 30 years. The fencing business began in 1993 solely as a contracting business. Over the past ten years we have honed our skills to become one of the premier agricultural fencing contractors in the state. In 2000, we decided to offer the same products we build to "do-it-yourselfers." In addition to these fine products, we offer the know-how and advice that can save extraordinary time and money. At Williams Fence, we know how to build quality, long-lasting fences.
We learned long ago on our farm, that the same amount of labor is necessary whether erecting a fence using long-lasting quality materials or inferior products that degrade quickly. When the right materials and practices are used, a fence can be obtained for less money over the long-haul rather than the constant care of a cheaper fence. Our products and materials are thoroughly tested on our farm and only after withstanding the tests of varied conditions and animals are they sold and installed for customers. To see for yourself, we invite you to visit our farm in Deansboro, New York.

Our newest partners, Williams Fence, talks about what they offer at their stone and takes us to an oil and stone driveway job.

Crossing the Borders of Time: A True Story of War, Exile, and Love Reclaimed (Paperback)
Staff Reviews
Crossing the Borders of Time: a True Story of War, Exile, and Love Reclaimed by Leslie Maitland is a well-written family history detailing a Jewish family's flight in 1938 from Freiberg, Germany, across France to Marseille, and onward via boat to Cuba. The family, along with hundreds of other desperate refugees was on one of the last boats to leave Marseille and then nearly not allowed into Cuba. Only after five years on the run were they permitted entry to the US. Maitland's research took her back to Europe and to Cuba to speak with various archivists and historians. She was fortunate that her family saved many documents, including the Inventory of Jewish Wealth form that her grandfather was forced to sign reporting he no longer had any assets since the Reich had taken everything. Maitland also conveys a poignant love story: her mother held dear for fifty years the last letter from the Frenchman she had loved and hoped to marry. These once young lovers are finally reunited, fifty years later, albeit with complications. You'll need to read this fascinating book to find out how the story ends— From Joan's Picks
On a pier in Marseille in 1942, with desperate refugees pressing to board one of the last ships to escape France before the Nazis choked off its ports, an 18-year-old German Jewish girl was pried from the arms of the Catholic Frenchman she loved and promised to marry. As the Lipari carried Janine and her family to Casablanca on the first leg of a perilous journey to safety in Cuba, she would read through her tears the farewell letter that Roland had slipped in her pocket: "Whatever the length of our separation, our love will survive it, because it depends on us alone. I give you my vow that whatever the time we must wait, you will be my wife. Never forget, never doubt."
Five years later – her fierce desire to reunite with Roland first obstructed by war and then, in secret, by her father and brother – Janine would build a new life in New York with a dynamic American husband. That his obsession with Ayn Rand tormented their marriage was just one of the reasons she never ceased yearning to reclaim her lost love.
Investigative reporter Leslie Maitland grew up enthralled by her mother's accounts of forbidden romance and harrowing flight from the Nazis. Her book is both a journalist's vivid depiction of a world at war and a daughter's pursuit of a haunting question: what had become of the handsome Frenchman whose picture her mother continued to treasure almost fifty years after they parted? It is a tale of memory that reporting made real and a story of undying love that crosses the borders of time.

Written with the precision of a historian, the result is a work I could not put down and scarcely wanted to end." —Michael Berenbaum, former director of the Holocaust Research Institute at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum
"A love affair thwarted by war, distance and a disapproving family became the defining story of Leslie Maitland's mother's life, and by extension, her own. What happens next is surprising indeed." —Cokie Roberts, NPR and ABC News analyst and author.

Maitland includes a treasury of old family photographs and documents to enhance this incredible story of the gauzy intersection of memory and fact." –Vanessa Bush, Booklist (starred review)
"[Maitland] writes with a clear, candid journalist's eye and manages to remove herself from the story, yet place herself into the narrative at the same time. [She] writes...with insight and honesty. She closes this noteworthy read with poetic understanding and gentleness." –Jewish Book Council

"A gripping true-life tale of victims of Nazi persecution and one survivor's quest for her lost love." –Shelf Awareness
"Sometimes the truth is not "stranger than fiction" but more compelling than fiction, and that's the case here.

Well written and captivating, its story will stay with readers well after the book is finished." –Library Journal
"An absorbing true account of romance, resilience, and survival during the years leading up to and during World War II, set against the backdrop of the Holocaust and the harrowing social history of mid-20th-century France." –The Daily Beast
"Crossing the Borders of Time will bewitch you. There is no fictionalized account of long-lost love that could be as compelling as this valentine to Leslie Maitland's parents and the sad situations that threatened to ruin their moral compasses throughout their entire lives. Simply put, this is an unforgettable tale." –Book Reporter
"Crossing the Borders of Time is a hair-raising tale of escape and survival, where crossing a border means everything. But sometimes, in this complicated world of loss, change and missed opportunities, it is just as amazing that love can make it across the biggest border of all: the border of time. Highly recommended." -American Girls Art Club in Paris
"The author makes fine use of her journalistic skills to conduct the search and to write about it, producing a narrative that is both informative and electrifying. History and the family saga combine in an informative and heart-warming tale that grips the reader's attention." -Indianapolis Jewish Post & Opinion
