Taylor Swift sings her heart out during a live performance at the 46th annual 2012 Country Music Awards held at the Bridgestone Arena on Thursday (November 1) in Nashville, Tenn.
The 22-year-old singer performed her song, "Begin Again" off her latest album, "Red".
During the performance, the stage was set up as a cafe in Paris where Taylor walks out singing and sits solo at a table. Lyrics of her song included "I've been spending the last 8 months, thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end. But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again."
At the end of the performance, Taylor received a standing ovation from the crowd.

No way I can leave it at that. Not when there's so much more to tell.
So I left my house at 5 am yesterday, headed to LAX. The morning began with two bits of dumb luck: first, that the trip to Montreal is going to last five days, and thus I couldn't use my usual roll-aboard suitcase, and so had already planned on checking my bag, and so would get to keep my toiletries; and second, that I drove myself to the airport, and thus got to listen to NPR on the way, and so knew what was going on, and so was prepared for the madness that I found when I got there.
The lines were absolutely unreal. The line of folks trying to check in outside terminal 1, for instance, stretched all the way back to, and halfway down in front of, terminal 2. Things were bad over in terminal 6, where Continental is, too. The first line wasn't terrible for me, at least, as I got to use the super elite line to check my bag, and thus only waited about ten minutes. The line for security, however, took forever, and everybody around me was in a foul mood.
I made it upstairs, finally, where I quickly wrote the last post and headed to my gate. My plane boarded on time, and left only a few minutes late, packed completely full. And the flight was pretty much uneventful, and I got a ton of work done.
But we didn't seem to be descending, not in the way I expected, not at the time I expected. Because heightened security wasn't enough, apparently, there was also weather near Newark. In fact, the flight attendant told me, we'd almost gotten diverted to another airport. As it was, we did land, a mere 32 minutes late.
Of course, I had a 35-minute layover scheduled.
And my flight to Montreal was apparently the only one in the entire airport that hadn't been delayed. I found this out when I called the elite help desk after we landed, telling the agent that I had less than five minutes to make my flight, if it was leaving on time. It was.
And the only other flight that night, the 9 pm, had been cancelled. So the soonest I could get out of Newark would be 9 am today.
I asked the agent if he could send a message to the gate, telling them that I'd be there in ten minutes. He said he would, but warned me that they might not hold the plane, no matter what. I promised to run.
And I did: with my big pink briefcase over one shoulder and my laptop case over the other, and wearing my boots with the two-inch heels, I ran, from the middle of one concourse, down the connecting corridor, to the far end of the next concourse, and down the escalator to gate 115a.
Where the door was shut, and the agent was gone.
I looked sufficiently bewildered that a woman sitting nearby said "someone will be there in a minute." "For Montreal?" I asked, pointing at the sign which indicated that the Montreal flight was leaving, like, now.
I ran over to the next gate, and got the agent's attention, asking about the Montreal flight. "Oh, that's gone," he said.
"Really?" I asked him, my desperation totally evident. "Because they called to tell them I was coming. And I ran. And the last flight tonight is cancelled." Gasping for air inbetween sentences.
And then a miracle occurred: he picked up the phone. Dialed some number. Asked if Montreal was still there. "I've got a runner," he said. And then led me over to the gate, where an agent had just re-opened the door. He asked if I could still be gotten on the plane, and led me under the rope, down the jetway, and — amazingly — right to the still-open door of my still-waiting plane.
I thanked him profusely then, but want to do so once again: god bless the gate agent at 114!
I plopped myself down in my seat, called R. to tell him I'd made the connection, if barely, and then proceeded to have the worst asthma attack I've ever had. I don't have asthma, at least not under normal circumstances. But I spent the next hour-plus unable to stop coughing, and unable to catch my breath.
Aside from that, though, the flight went smoothly. I had a little bit of bourbon — to soothe the throat and calm the nerves, you know — and a nice chat with the woman across the aisle. And then we landed, and waited in the usual long passport control line, and headed into baggage claim.
Where, as you might expect, my suitcase did not greet me. A very nice guy named George, though, who works for Northwest, was there, and he helped me with the paperwork.
My belongings caught up with me about an hour ago. I spent all day today conducting interviews in the same jeans and t-shirt that I traveled in yesterday. Now I can change my clothes, and even use the toiletries that I was able to save from TSA by checking my bag.

Pierre Guénolé was a French publisher, author and illustrator of spanking novels in the early 20th century. He was one of the pioneers of the "golden age" of early 20th century French spanking literature.
There is also the pseudo-scientific book Tender Bottoms. A Psycho-sexual Study in Morals Based on Personal Experiences and Documentary Evidence by "Doctor Pierre Guenolés" (1934, 180 pages). The illustrations are unsigned and from various sources. Sometimes it is difficult to trace if a book was written or illustrated by Pierre Guénolé.
Books he worked on (writing and/or illustrating)

Why does lacquer "poisoning" occur?
One of the infamous characteristics of lacquer is "poisoning". For instance, if you happen to touch a lacquer tree by mistake when you are climbing a mountain, it can lead to a bad inflammation, which is called contact dermatitis.
Because of this, lacquer is often associated with poisoning in Japan. However, this only refers to the liquid lacquer. You will not get a rash through lacquerware, the solid form of lacquer.
The lacquerware with high-quality lacquer will not provoke poisoning
Lacquer has distinctive characteristics, which are due to its main ingredient called urushiol. Through the action of urushiol, unusual properties emerge such as "it dries better when it is more humid" and "once it solidifies, it will never go back to its liquid form".
Urushiol has an effect that provokes "poisoning" as mentioned earlier. Some people get a rash from lacquer just by walking on a mountain road. This is probably because of the fact that the urushiol contained in lacquer diffused in the air and then triggered the inflammation.
Lacquer poisoning is different with each person. Some are less likely to be poisoned by lacquer, and others get a bad inflammation without ever touching the lacquer. Some people do not get poisoned by lacquer at all.
But, if lacquer is dried after being coated on an object, the inflammation from lacquer will not be triggered even to those who are more likely to get poisoned by lacquer.
Occasionally, some people get a bad rash after touching a piece of brand-new lacquerware. In this case, the lacquer applied on the lacquerware is most likely to be of poor-quality.
Typically, lacquer dries in about five to six hours. And yet, if any rash was caused by the products after a few days from when they were shipped, the coatings probably contained some kind of impurities (bulking filler, etc.), thus the items did not completely dry.
Lacquer art craftspeople are less likely to be poisoned
When you handle lacquer, you will get a rash from lacquer with a probability of 100%. When handling liquid lacquer, if the lacquer gets on your hand or arm for some reason, it then produces redness and swelling.
These are due to some type of immune reaction. Immune cells will start functioning by the action of urushiol against the areas of the body touched by the lacquer. This is how the inflammation is triggered.
But, in the case of craftspeople who have daily contact with lacquer, even if lacquer gets on their hands, gradually, they stop having the rash reaction from the lacquer. This is because their immune system gets used to the lacquer.
For example, the same happens in the case of hay fever. If you continue to have contact with a small amount of pollens every day, your symptoms of hay fever will slowly fade away. This is due to the fact that the immune reaction will weaken against the pollens. This type of medical method to cure hay fever is called hyposensitization.
Similarly, if you have contact with lacquer on a daily basis, your immune system becomes less reactive. Of course, it significantly varies among different individuals, so there are many people who give up on being an artisan of lacquerware because of severe symptoms of inflammation from lacquer. Also, even an experienced artisan can get poisoned by lacquer when he or she is not feeling well.
The rash from lacquer produces strong itchiness. But, it will be fully healed, and it will not leave any permanent marks on your skin. It's just that there is no fundamental treatment method, so you will need to patiently wait for the symptoms to go away.

Sussex Swimming Quarry
edited by Michael R. Reilly
updated 03/17/2015
Now after 26 years of operation in 1916, a disastrous fire destroyed the wood piles, warehouses, kilns and the pump house. The business was dead, never to be revived. In 1918, the Kraemer family bought the now-rundown acreage, and the water filled quarry for a reported $5,000.
In Sept. 1920, the Mammoth Spring Canning Co. was built and it operated until its last shipment out in March, 1996. By the turn of the century, the buildings were being torn down. Sussex had some grand plans to redevelop the site, but nothing came of it for 17 years.
Then a developer, Art Sawall, had a groundbreaking June 24, 2013, and 2014 should see the first two completed massive upscale retail buildings takin in tenants, with further development to follow.
Meanwhile, through all these years, since 1916, the water-filled quarry has remained, and from 1916 to 1991, it was a community gathering area for swimmers in the summer, and ice skating in the winter. During the early years, it was a place to gather ice blocks for refrigeration locally.
In 1980, during the height of the municipal swimming season, there was a volunteer couple that did some snorkeling in the quarry to ascertain the depth, clarity and what had happened to the bottom of it.
Village Trustee Carl Senger was present as Mike and Carol Fosdick spent well over an hour at the depths of the quarry.
They found that the deepest part was toward the west and was 30 feet deep. There was a layer of decaying leaf residue that covered the depths, and when disturbed, it clouded the water. They also found barrels of pan fish present.
Most interestingly, there was the still intact rail line east to west in place on the quarry floor.
The quarry continued as a swimming hole until it was closed in 1991 because of the American Disabilities Act.http://www.slahs.org/history/local/business/quarry.htm
Old Sussex swimming quarry
Hidden in the middle of Sussex in land formed by the triangle of Main Street, Waukesha Avenue and Silver Spring Drive is a 120-year-old water-filled quarry. It was constructed in 1890 with the coming of the Bug Line Railroad to Templeton - then the eastern part of the dual community of Sussex-Templeton.
The quarry was set up in 1890 to take advantage of a surface outcropping of Niagara Reef dolomite lime stone that was burne in a set of three lime kilns to produce various forms of quick and slack lime that had various uses. The most prominent use was to make plaster and a binding agent for mortar that was used to cement bricks in construction projects.
Fuel for the kilns came from the northwestern Wisconsin forests. The fuel didn't have to be the best wood but rather the twisted, gnarly wood that was refuse from the vast lumbering businesses in central and northern Wisconsin was used.
The wood had to be cut into four-foot lengths and split into smaller sizes so it could be continuously fed into the lime kilns nearly round the clock.
The kilns were 35-feet high and rail tracks would incline to the top to carry the quarried stone from the quarry floor to the top level of the kilns. The kilns had side roofs over the middle level where workers would feed in the wood to burn the stone over a three-day process.
Below the roof and the wood-burning opening floor there was a bottom access hole where workers would insert long steel hooked rods to remove the burned lime. The entire process would start with stone going in on top, wood into the middle and removal of the burned lime from the bottom. Temperatures in the kilns would reach between 500 and 900 degrees centigrade. When the lime came out it would be red hot - almost transparent - and would give off light that would glow in the cooling floor.
By 1920, all kiln work in Waukesha County was passé as products like Portland Cement started to take over the market.
Reports from different local sources tell of 10 kilns once in operation in Sussex-Templeton, but some say there were 17. Today, only one kiln still stands and it is located behind Quad Tech. Another's remains can be seen near Swan Road a little east off the south shoulder of Lisbon Road, but not everyone confirms the landmark's origin and claim it is just an old pile of rocks.
Back to the quarry
It is behind the former Mammoth Spring Canning Company land on Main Street across the road from M&M Restaurant. It can be seen through the trees and brush if one takes the Bug Line Recreational Trail from Silver Spring Drive to Main Street.
Originally the land that the quarry would be on was claimed in the 1840s by Edwin C. Hartsen who bought it for $1.25 per acre. According an 1859 property map, William Weaver owned it who passed it to his son J.R. Weaver in 1873 and by 1891, William Elliot, a relative to the Weaver clan, opened the quarry and lime kiln business. It went through a series of owners and in 1914, it was reduced to 14.25 acres and was a company owned by Templeton Lime and Stone Company.
On July 13, 1909, a massive fire destroyed the quarry. It was later restored only to burn down again in 1916 and by that time this type of business venture was obsolete. The demise of the company left 50 people out of work who were earning 12 to 15 cents per hour.
After the 1916 fire there was no pump left to remove the water from the springs and the quarry filled with about 22 feet of water. In 1918, the Kraemer family from Rockfield bought the site for $5,000. Most of the land facing Waukesha Avenue was subdivided and sold as lots.
In 1920, the canning company was built here for about $62,500 and operated until March 1996. Meanwhile the canning company allowed kids to swim in the water-filled quarry.
In the early 1950s, the Sussex Lions Club with member Al Halquist blew off a piece of surface stone to make an enlarged wading/swimming area and the village took over running a summertime recreational swimming area. The swimming hole was eventually closed down due to the American Disabilities Act. Today the quarry is overgrown with trees and algae bloom and is the home to flocks of water fowl. There have been discussions to develop a walking path around the entire quarry hole so those using recreational trails could use it and possibly boat in it.
Swimming 1962
Swimming lessons at quarry July 1979. Using the Mammoth Spring Canning Company owned water-filled quarry. Sussex and Lisbon used the 20 ft water depth quarry from 1916 thru 1979 and until 1991 for community [Sussex] swimming. Access was from Silver Spring Rd., through the then Hardiman's Petro Pantry. This photo shows a life guard/swimming instructor teaching beginners group near the high dive area. Sussex never lost a person to drowning "during organized swimming" from 1916 to 1991. It was closed because of the American Disabilities Act. Photo by Fred H. Keller
On hot days, Sussex-Lisbon children are taking long dips in the Sussex Quarry. Open swimming for card holders is from 1-8p. daily. The quarry has a roped in wading area for non-swimmers and two diving boards and rafts in the deep area for proficient swimmers. Lessons are given to registered groups every weekday morning by qualified instructors hired by the park and recreation board. June 1980, photo by Fred H. Keller.

A 'share' is a commitment. Farming along side mother nature can be tricky. Every season is different and every year some things will do better than others. Subscribing to our season means you become partners in this farming endeavor - both our RADeaters and farmers 'share' the risk and rewards with living closely with nature. This relationship puts less emphasis on the $$$ value of the produce and more on the seasonality of food.

We couldn't get going in the spring without you! Your share value will always be slightly higher than the weekly cost of the share, and many weeks (especially in summer) it will be far far more valuable than your weekly share cost.

Foirst in fort serve, you can swap an item our of your box and another for the box back into your bag! Customization in its simplest form, but its first in first serve!

If you would like to donate your veg to one of the mercy connect clients please give us 24 hours notice and we'll make the orangments.

2-Year Treasuries at 1.3% Yield See Strong Demand at Auction
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Even with a Federal Reserve interest rate hike looming, the Treasury Department's auction of $26 billion two-year notes saw strong demand. The yield of 1.32% is up from just 0.91% a year ago.
Normally, an imminent Fed rate hike would deter buyers from these short-term notes. It was the highest yield at a 2-year yield at auction, since October 2008, points out Thomas Byrne of Wealth Strategies & Management.
Dealers took just 30% of the auction, near the bottom of the recent range, points out Thomas Simons of Jefferies.
"The sharp selloff in the leadup to the auction certainly improved the concession for the 2-year," notes Aaron Kohli of BMO Capital Markets.
Treasuries fell sharply across the yield curve Tuesday from 11 am to 1 p.m., for no obvious reason. Traders speculated that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's comments on tax cuts or Director of the Office of Management and Budget Mick Mulvaney's discussion of the new budget might have sparked the selloff, which reversed following the auction.

Churchill Downs Unveils Kentucky Derby 134 Logo
Officials at Churchill Downs today unveiled the official event logo for the 134th edition of the world-famous Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (Grade I), which is scheduled for Saturday, May 3, 2008, at the legendary racetrack in Louisville, Ky. The logo unveiling marked the official kick-off to Churchill Downs' "Halfway to Derby" party, which will take place on Saturday, Nov. 3. Churchill Downs is starting the six-month countdown to the 2008 Kentucky Derby with a variety of special on-track promotions, including live music and a hat contest.
The official Kentucky Derby 134 event logo was designed by artists for The Game, a sports merchandising company that produces officially licensed Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks apparel, gift items and collectibles and has previously worked with Churchill Downs and the racetrack's licensing agency, IMG Worldwide, to develop a variety of Kentucky Derby-branded products.
The official event logo for Kentucky Derby 134 features a Thoroughbred racehorse and jockey, outlined in vibrant springtime shades of pink, orange and red, set against a deep blue background that includes a stylized version of Churchill Downs' famed Twin Spires, the same symbols now used as the corporate trademark of Churchill Downs and its parent company, Churchill Downs Incorporated. The racehorse's saddle towel bears the number "134," to commemorate the 134th running of the "Greatest Two Minutes in Sports."
"The Kentucky Derby is all about color, energy, and an enthusiastic celebration of one of our nation's most respected and beloved sporting events," said Churchill Downs President Steve Sexton.

Rita Sinks Offshore Rigs; Capsizes Tension Leg Platform
Rita may have landed at Sabine Pass as a category 3 hurricane but she plowed through Gulf of Mexico offshore oilfields at a Category 5 level knocking down jackjup rigs and setting deepwater floating rigs adrift.
As storm generated seas rose to meet the US Gulf continental shelf drilling rigs and fixed production platforms were severely damaged and in some cases sunk. The Rowan Companies jackup fleet appears to have taken a hard hit from Rita. The hull of the Rowan Louisiana was found aground on the Louisiana coastline. The Halifax and Odessa were moved off of their drilling locations sustaining undetermined damages and the Rowan Fort Worth is still off the radar screen. The four rigs were drilling under contracts providing Rowan revenues of $210,000 per day. Early reports suggest that Global SantaFe may have lost jackup rigs GSF Adriatic VII and GSF High Island III. The two missing jackup rigs are insured for a total of $125 million. One of Hercules Offshore's jackup rigs, Hercules 21, is listing precariously at Main Pass Block 21.
Deepwater rigs in the Green Canyon area due South of Houma, Louisiana, had to deal with Rita generated 155 mph winds and 60 foot seas. From early field reports it is clear that some did not fare so well. Noble Drilling's semi-submersible rig Max Smith broke its mooring lines and sustained some structural damage to one of the starboard columns. The rig was under contract to BHP at Green Canyon 238. At Green Canyon Block 236 hurricane Rita also broke Chevron's TLP named (irony upon irony) " Typhoon". A fixed wing aerial survey on Sunday located the Max Smith in the West Cameron Area and Chevron's Typhoon floating upside-down in Eugene Island Block 273 some 80 miles from their original locations. Rita moved another Noble Semi, the Noble Therald Martin, from Green Canyon 236 to Vermillion Block 214, but according to reports the rig suffered only minor damage.
Diamond Offshore Drilling owned semi-submersible rigs Ocean Saratoga and Ocean Star broke free from their moorings as Hurricane Rita passed west of both rigs. The Saratoga is currently grounded in approximately 35 feet of water in Vermilion block 111, about 100 miles northwest of the rig's original location at Green Canyon block 157. The Star is also aground on the Louisiana coastline in Eugene Island block 142, one hundred miles north of its original Green Canyon block 768 drilling location.
Mobile offshore drilling units were not the only casualties. Fixed platforms in South Timbalier, East Cameron and Vermillion were also reportedly lost. If these early reports are any indication of the total offshore facilities damage caused by Rita, natural gas and oil prices will be moving up smartly to new highs in the weeks ahead.

God works in mysterious ways. We hear people say this expression a lot, but sometimes you just have this moment in time when you know without a shadow of a doubt that God's hand has touched your life.
This little guy is the center stage of one of those moments.
In 2007, our house was fairly quiet with a predictable routine. Our lives were calm with just my husband, daughter, and myself. We were anxiously awaiting the news of an adoption referral. In October of that year, this little white dog wandered into our yard as my husband was mowing. He made the mistake of telling me the pup had no tags, so I opened my front door. The little pup walked in through the door and into my heart. Over the next week, no one claimed him despite our efforts to find his home. My friend suggested the name Franklin since that was the street he was found on. The name fit.
This little pup affectionately called Franklin turned our house upside down. Franklin's crazy antics prepared us for our son. He flipped the predictable to the unpredictable. He helped me to be more spontaneous. He reminded me to not take everything so seriously. He prepared me to be a better mom to my son.
Yes, I believe God sent this pup into our lives as a gift to prepare us for the greater gift of our son who joined our family in March 2009.
Through the years, Franklin did crazy thing after crazy thing. He ate non-food items and stole more things off the kitchen counter and table than I can remember. I held that pup like a baby…he was my baby. We nursed him a year ago from a stage 2 wound back to health. Shortly after that, he developed diabetes and we began administering insulin shots twice daily.
Two days ago, his health took a turn for the worse. We did everything we could for him to make him comfortable and help his situation, but he slipped away the next morning. He is no longer suffering.
My heart is sad. My house is quiet. But, my life has been enriched by the gift of a little white dog who wandered into our lives and into my heart.
God definitely knows what we need when we need it.

It is not uncommon for investors to debate whether or not they should get their real estate license. While you certainly don't need one to be successful, every advantage helps. Getting licensed, however, may take more than most realize. Getting licensed takes both time and money – not something every new investor has. If you can use your real estate license for deals, networking or to simply save or earn more money, it is worth the investment. Of course, you can always work with someone that is licensed, but sometimes having your own avoids a lot of hassle. Here are five advantages you can gain on the competition by getting your real estate license:
1. Extra Income: If you are just starting out, there is a good chance any extra income will be welcomed. Even if you don't intend to make a career out of being a real estate agent, it can provide you with supplemental income. Listing one house every few months or completing one broker price opinion will not help you retire any time soon, but it will generate a little income here and there. Additionally, it is a great way to learn the business from another perspective. You can see how real estate agents work and what they need to be successful. All the while, you can work the contacts you have to make money and learn the investing business at the same time. Your first rehab or wholesale deal may take months before you get going. A real estate license will help supplement your income during that time.
2. Access to Deals: One deal every few months is nice, but it is not the primary reason you would get licensed. Getting your license opens doors to deals that you may have never thought of in the first place. Instead of waiting on your Realtor to alert you of any new deals, you will be the first point of contact. As soon as a new listing hits the MLS you will know about it. You can quickly see properties in locations you like and make an offer by the end of the day. The access to new deals is the primary reason to get your license.
3. New Contacts: Being a real estate investor and Realtor can be a delicate balance. There are some who are skeptical in working with an investor who also wears a Realtor hat. This number is small compared to the amount of new contacts that being a Realtor can help you make – not only in your own office, but at open houses and local networking functions. You can also develop contacts internally at banks that could give you the inside track for bank owned properties. No matter how you slice it, the more people you can meet, the greater the chance that you will close more deals. Meeting the right real estate agent or being in the right office can completely change your investing business.
4. Education: The more you know about the business, the greater the chance of you becoming successful. Almost every investment deal you get involved in will have some contact with a real estate agent. Knowing how the real estate side works will give some insight on how to structure a contract, and even what to look for in a property. You will have a better feel for what is really needed to get your deal closed. Even if you have closed a few deals, you may not really understand what goes into an addendum or what is legally binding in a contract. Being a real estate agent will give you a different perspective: one that can save you time and money down the road.
5. Commissions: In addition to making money on the deals, you will also save commissions on your own personal deals. If you close just six investment deals a year and act as the Realtor, you are saving, and making, over $10,000. Since you would buy these properties anyway, it is extra income that could be put back into your business. If you flip these properties and quickly list them yourself, there is another 2.5 percent on the sales side. After you pay your broker split and taxes, you are still making money that you would paid out to someone else.
Being a real estate agent takes more than simply wanting to get licensed. You need to first pass a local real estate class. Only then can you take the test. Even experienced investors sometimes have trouble with these tests if they do not put the proper study time in. Next, you have to find a broker that is willing to hold your license. On top of all this, there are application fees, expenses and annual renewals that must be met. It is far from easy to get licensed, but is often worth it. A real estate license is not necessary for every investor, but for the right investor it could completely change your business.

Travel Experience to Hongcun Village
Hongcun Village lies in Yixian County, set against the extending part of the Yellow Mountain Huangshan travel guide . This village is a key historical monument under state protection, a historic and cultural village of China, and one of China's top 10 most beautiful villages. In 2000, it together with Xidi Village, was included in the World Heritage List by the UNESCO.
The construction of Hongcun Village began in the southern Song Dynasty (1127 – 1279). Now the village contains 140 ancient buildings of the 14th to 19th century. Its water-supply system is quite unique, environmentally-friendly and surprisingly well-preserved. The village China tour deals , which is regarded as having being built according to the principle of bionics, is in the shape of cattle: the mountain, by which the village stands, is the head; the trees on it are the horns; the bridges are the four hoofs; and the houses themselves constitute the body. It is indubitably a wonder among World Cultural Heritage sites. Due to such a scientific design, the local villagers are able to enjoy many conveniences in their daily lives. More importantly, a hardly-won harmony between man and nature has been realized here, and as a result the whole community seems to be brimming with life. This is why Hongcun Village is much more popular than its counterparts.

What a beautiful way to express love: friendship. Accountability, honesty, compassion. We can love our friends without expectation, without jealousy and with a full and open heart because we know we're loved back. True friends don't doubt loyalty or demand the impossible. Regardless of the favor, we do it because life decides when we're in need and a friend fulfills, no matter the circumstance.
Friendship is true love.
Friends hold us accountable for our actions, call us on our shortcomings and express their high expectations. Friends don't let us cheat ourselves. They have our backs, but are true to the reality of the situation. They'll still follow you into battle, but only after expressing their doubts and explaining the better more logical options. Friends are real and don't let you see the roadblocks as failure, but come along to help pick up the pieces so you may keep moving forward.
There to be a voice of reason or to rile your need for freedom, adventure. Friends make you feel loved when the heart is weak, help fill voids when it's lonely, and hold your hand when lost.
Friends are One Beauty Among Many.

Brunei Darussalam National Olympic Council president His Royal Highness Prince Hj Sufri Bolkiah (L) attending yesterday's meeting. Picture: Infofoto
Brunei is one step closer to deciding which sports to compete in at this year's Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Indonesia.
The Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports' national selection and evaluation committee met at the Conference Room of the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium in Berakas yesterday, exactly one week after a similar meeting to discuss the sports the country will partake in during the Nov 11-22 biennial tournament.
Chaired by the ministry's permanent secretary and the committee's chairman Dato Paduka Hj Mohd Hamid Hj Mohd Jaafar, the meeting at the Conference Room of the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium in Berakas was also attended by Brunei Darussalam National Olympic Council (BNOC) president His Royal Highness Prince Hj Sufri Bolkiah.
It is understood 13 sports have been shortlisted to compete in the 26th edition of the meet.
Tasked with deciding which athletes will represent Brunei in any contingent the Sultanate sends to regional and international tournaments, the committee which receives input from various sources met with coaches and administrators from five sports yesterday; cycling, petanque, softball, sepak takraw and wushu.
"The committee asked me how many athletes I want to send to the SEA Games and in which events," said national sepak takraw coach Ittiphol Chomchaissak after talking to the committee in the meeting which was closed to the media.
"They also wanted to know how the team's preparation is going," added the Thai.
Apart from staff from the Department of Youth and Sports, the committee is also made up of officials from the Royal Brunei Armed Forces' Sports Council (MS ABDB), Royal Brunei Police Force Sports Council (MS PDB) and the Schools Sports Council (MSSS).
The last edition of the multi-sport tournament, the 2009 Laos SEA Games , saw Brunei send 24 athletes in six sports.
The committee finalised the names and sports of athletes going to the 2009 SEA Games on Sept 10, three months before the Dec 9-18 tournament where they finished with one gold, one silver and eight bronze.
Silat exponent Hj Md Khairul Bahrin Hj Duraman delivered the Sultanate's only gold when he topped the men's tunggal event his first trip to the top of the podium after 10 years in the national team.
Faustina Woo Wai Sii and Lee Ying Shi won Brunei's sole silver medal in the women's Duilian (doubles broadsword and spear) event.
The bronze medals came from karate-do (four), silat (three) and wushu (one).

Without adequate audit systems to ensure accountability, users of electronic health record (EHR) systems could create, read, modify, or delete protected health information (PHI) without these actions being traceable. To this end, the United States Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) Security Rule states that one must implement, "mechanisms that record and examine activity in information systems that contain or use electronic protected health information" (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, 2007). Additionally, Meaningful Use Stage 2 objectives from the United States Department of Health and Human Services (EHR Incentives & Certifications, 2011) include criteria for providing patient accessible logs of protected health information (PHI) disclosure. Patients need to trust the privacy practices and accountability of healthcare organizations. Administering software audit mechanisms forms a basis for privacy-driven and accountability-driven policy and regulations, including government regulations (Kent & Souppaya, 2006).
Ensuring accountability in an EHR system is essential, since a user should be unable to deny performing certain actions because these actions were recorded by the audit mechanism. The United States Department of Justice's Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative defines:
Non-repudiation ‑ a technique used to ensure that someone performing an action on a computer cannot falsely deny that they performed that action. Non-repudiation provides undeniable proof that a user took a specific action. (Privacy Technology Focus Group, 2006)
Audit mechanisms should help ensure privacy of PHI by focusing on recording and detecting inappropriate accesses to PHI to promote non-repudiation. The healthcare field needs specific standards that address the implementation of software audit mechanisms to monitor access and information disclosure, including details of what should be logged, how it should be logged, and how logged information should be monitored.
In a previous study, we assessed the audit mechanisms of OpenEMR, OpenMRS, and Tolven eCHR to determine how well the three EHR audit mechanisms address non-repudiation (King, Smith, & Williams, 2012). We based our qualitative assessment on both (1) a set of 16 general auditable events derived from four professional sources of audit guidelines, and (2) set of 58 black-box test cases for specific auditable events derived from the Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT) criteria (CCHIT Certified, 2011). We found a noteworthy lack of easily accessible and readable auditing for non-repudiation in each of the three EHR systems. Since our initial assessment, newer versions of OpenEMR and Tolven eCHR were released. We also obtained access to a proprietary EHR system for evaluation. With new versions of two open-source EHR systems and a proprietary EHR system now available, we revisit and expand our previous audit mechanisms assessment.
The objective of this paper is to assess electronic health record audit mechanisms to determine the current degree of auditing for non-repudiation and to assess whether general audit guidelines adequately address non-repudiation. In performing this study, we investigate the following questions:
Q1: What events should be included in an EHR log file for non-repudiation?
Q2: How well do EHR systems perform in logging and auditing for non-repudiation?
For this paper, we focus on human-readable, semantic user activity logs that contain data related to user interaction with PHI that should be monitored for the purpose of audit and user accountability. In this study, we first perform an analysis of EHR audit mechanisms by deriving a set of 16 general assessment criteria from four academic and professional sources of general auditable events (such as "view data" and "create data"). Next, we perform an analysis by deriving 58 audit-related black-box test cases to assess specific user actions (such as "view diagnosis data" and "view patient demographics") in an EHR system. We analyze three EHR systems:

I hear a lot of gripe about the cartoon look, but I heard the same back when they were in 2D, and the toons rocked (though the format sucked, there was more logos and credits than content).
As long as they keep the galaxies' worst love story to a minimum, I'm on board.

Making Earth Observation Work for UK Biodiversity: Phase 2 Norfolk Pilot Study
Cameron, Iain; Medcalf, Katie; Turton, Nicki; Bell, Gemma
Environment Systems Ltd, UNITED KINGDOM
A robust system for surveillance of habitat extent and condition is key for the conservation of priority habitats. The Crick framework was developed by Environment Systems on behalf of Defra and JNCC during Phase 1 of the Making Earth Observation Work for UK Biodiversity project. It offers a systematic method to characterise how well habitats can be identified using Earth Observation (EO) data. The ability to distinguish between different habitats in EO data depends upon the spectral signature, phenology and canopy contribution of key plant species together with contextual landscape information. The Crick Framework draws upon this wide range of factors and, together with ecological knowledge, provides a generic classification system where tiers of habitats are grouped by the types of EO and ancillary data required to classify them accurately. This paper presents results from the Norfolk Pilot Study (forming Phase 2 of the project) which is investigating the implementation of the Crick framework for identifying the extent and condition of BAP Priority and Annex I habitats in Norfolk, within the UK. The Norfolk pilot study integrates a wide range of EO data (from landscape-level satellite imagery, such as SPOT-5 and Rapideye, to site specific high resolution multispectral UAV imagery), together with ancillary mapping and elevation data. Priority habitats were classified using the Crick Framework to identify which combinations of EO data should allow for accurate identification, this was then put into practice using an object-oriented ecological rulebase classification methodology. Results so far have demonstrated that a number of priority habitats in this intricate lowland environment can be identified at the broad landscape-scale using satellite data. For Annex I habitats the best results have been found using high resolution digital elevation data from Lidar and UAV photogrammetry, together with very high resolution multispectral imagery targeted at specific sites. The data has also demonstrated the capacity to monitor habitat condition through parameters such as vegetation productivity, wetness/dryness and identification of large single-species stands. Results indicate that EO gives very useful and quantifiable information for looking at extent and condition of specific sites, and can be targeted appropriately using the Crick Framework.

Speaking to WOIO-TV in Cleveland, Kevin Spellacy, Conley's attorney, described the allegations as "ludicrous and ridiculous". Conley has not been charged in connection with the alleged incident.
Here is some of the USA TODAY report which details the events of April 9 as best as possible.
Conley is expected to be a first-round draft selection in this week's NFL Draft.
This comes as zero surprise, but on Tuesday, soon after rape allegations against him surfaced, Ohio State cornerback Gareon Conley chose to not attend the 2017 NFL Draft.
McShay also said Florida defensive tackle Caleb Brantley was charged with battery after a woman told police he had punched her, and both MI safety Jabrill Peppers and Alabama linebacker Reuben Foster tested positive for diluted urine samples at the combine.
According to the report, police attempted to interview the woman at the hospital, where a rape kit was administered, but she declined and "just kept saying she wanted to go home and that her dignity was stripped from her in a matter of minutes". She claims Conley asked her to have a foursome with another friend of his and a woman. [The alleged victim] only said this to Conley to try and avoid having sex with Conley all together.More news: Asylum seekers crossing into Canada increase with warmer weather
The woman told police that another man was in in the room with another woman.
Now, though, if Conley wants to preserve his draft status, he needs to immediately get contact the police and interview to attempt to clear his name, if he believes the evidence supports him. No charges have been filed, nor has an arrest warrant been issued for Conley.
Spellacy told Cleveland.com that he made arrangements with police for Conley to be questioned after the draft. The victim told authorities that she had been raped by Conley in a room at the hotel, but Conley was not present at the hotel when officers arrived.
The player's attorney says it all started at the Barley House on West 6th Street, when a group left there to go to the Westin for a hotel room party. She refused to speak to cops after that.
Conley has been accused of raping a woman in a Cleveland hotel and it's now an open investigation within the Cleveland Division of Police Sex Crimes and Child Abuse Unit.

DIY: MCM Plant Stand
Mid-century modern (MCM) plant stands have been all over design blogs for a while now, and admittedly, I fell for them hard. They're readily available at stores big and small, but the common theme is that they're relatively expensive, ranging from $130-250+ (without the pot) for an average size and we needed quite a large one. They were never going to make it into my house at that price point – so we did what we do: we built our own.
This DIY is very, very cheap, relatively simple, and able to be customized for the size of pot or planter you may already own.
What you'll need:
– 1" wood dowels
– 1"x2" pine board
– miter saw
– Kreg jig
– screws
– wood glue
– file
– wood stain (optional)
– wipe-on poly (water-based)
– pot/planter

DIY: Living Wall
This might be the easiest DIY we've done so far. We wanted something on this big empty wall between the library and the living room, but we already have a gallery behind the sofa and a mirror above the fireplace. I considered some sort of tapestry for texture, but then in walked the living wall with its burly green tendrils and all other ideas fell away. It didn't hurt that we already had everything we needed, except the plants.
Our planties are still babies so they aren't showing us the cascade effect we want, but they'll get there. We also had to place the containers a little higher than we'd like (we want to spread them out a bit, eventually) because we have a chocolate lab who isn't quite a year old and who sometimes thinks planties are tasty treats when he's left alone. (more…)
DIY: Author Wall Installation
Years ago, when I was scouring home blogs and sites for designs or art pieces – I'm not the only person who still has a file for such a thing on their desktop instead of using something like Pinterest, right? – I came across a wallpaper I just loved. It was black and white, a little faded, and it bore the names of many authors who had inspired me to pursue my own writing. It was also wildly expensive; it didn't match anything else I liked; and I didn't have a library to put it in (which, of course, was where I wanted it to go). I tossed it in the folder anyway, the little image outlasting dozens of deletions and begging for a home.
Flash forward to two years ago and J and I purchased a house, a house wherein we built a library (or rather, where we built me an office that happens to be crowded by books). The wallpaper, somehow, was still available (!!!). It was also still expensive and in black and white and devoid of the many female authors whose work I find inspiring. The other issue was that the wall I wanted to use needed something less, well, flat. And so, an idea was born: an author wall installation. (more…)

Meet my wonderful buddy, Jack! He is an eight month old Pomeranian, and the cutest little thing! I got him in March when he was just six weeks old, and he has grown SO much since then!
He is very hyper and rambunctious, but also has such a sweet side to him {especially when he's sleeping!! =) }
This little dog has been such a comfort to me when I've needed it most and shown me so much unconditional love!

Valencia faces prospect of sale to repay debt
Valencia is facing the prospect of being sold in order to pay
back the club's debts of nearly 300 million euros ($415
The six-time Spanish league champion has been unable to keep up
with loan repayments to Spanish bank Bankia, and few alternatives
have appeared.
"Up to now, refinancing doesn't look possible since we have not
received any sustainable plan from the club. We need investment to
achieve a solution," Bankia said in a statement. "The only other
alternative is to look for investors that can guarantee the health
of the club's sporting, social, and economic projects."
Valencia president Amadeo Salvo said finding a purchaser would
be a reasonable request, but stubbornly set conditions.
"The sale would be possible for 250 million euros ($345
million) that would wipe the club's debt and allow shares to be
repurchased," Salvo told a shareholders meeting. "The sale of
Valencia will be decided here (in this room), not by Bankia nor the
provincial government," which also has a stake in the club through
its foundation.
Valencia saw its finances balloon over the close of the last
decade after investing heavily in the construction of a new
stadium. It now stands half finished, with the club unable to pay
the builders.
Valencia – whose 2004 league title was the last won by a club
apart from Barcelona or Real Madrid – has been forced to sell its
best players, such as David Villa, Juan Mata, David Silva, Roberto
Soldado, and Jordi Alba to bring in funds.
"I'm not worried," coach Miroslav Djukic said on Wednesday.
"Valencia has history, infrastructure, and supporters. Valencia's
future is always assured.
"We should try to help the club with results as it's the only
way we can."

Head here to submit your own review of this album.
Apart from a handful of hardcore punk bands and the occasional Mastodon craze in my repertoire, I'm not the ideal guy to comment on Liturgy or what they mean to the metal scene. I do know that they seem to be pretty important whether they're being enjoyed or not. I also know the basic constructs of black metal: blast beats, fast tempos, and an emphasis on overall atmosphere as opposed to distinct licks. This is where it ends. Between The Number of the Beast and Sunbather, I'm fairly clueless.
Singer Hunter Hunt-Hendrix, however, is a benevolent fan. He loves the genre enough to write a medium-length manifesto about what he sees as its changing landscape. This 2009 piece is ideological, fun to read, and has been rigorously ripped to shreds (his persona and sexual orientation included) by the community ever since. Apparently Hunt-Hendrix glossed over quite a few years of important music in his work, titled Transcendental Black Metal (look it up for yourself, there's a .pdf out there), and Liturgy's 2011 breakthrough Aesthethica encountered difficulty overcoming the shadow of this buzz. Why is that? Well, HHH lives in a pretty trendy area of Brooklyn, so the term "hipster scum" had certainly been tossed around. Personally, my own anger would depend on the types of crowds going to see the music. If they're there to stand around and just be at a Liturgy show and not to engage, my animosity would boil over. For now, I'll just have to keep enjoying The Ark Work as much as I can before I get to see one of these crowds firsthand at the Midwest's newest hipster summit, Eaux Claires Music Festival. To that end, Liturgy's orchestral output sounds unlike anything released in years.
What does The Ark Work sound like? 'Quetzalcoatl' sounds like an alarm going off in a data center. 'Vitriol' conjures a sonic swamp worthy of Avey Tare or Björk. Some moments do sound like a 64-bit version of your favourite Super Nintendo adventure game, but they always have a payoff when a chorus arrives. The first three tracks bleed exceptionally together, a fanfare (called 'Fanfare') of horns giving way to a matching snare drum part on 'Kel Valhaal'. Here, a march towards some dark fate ends up sounding triumphant. You can tell something is brewing on the suspiciously short 'Haelegen' and, sure enough, the crushing and glorious 'Reign Array' is the albums summit. When the first chorus gives way to a bagpipe section, I'm surprised I expected anything less ceremonial.
On penultimate track 'Vitriol', a 7/8 signature underneath group harmonies recalls Liars at their weirdest and A Place to Bury Strangers at their absolute best. Hunt-Hendrix warns throughout: "soon the flowers will close up and sing peacefully/soon the ADHD kids will quiet down respectfully." Amidst more cautionary lines and this killer rhythm, Liturgy could be attempting to evoke anything. I'm totally hooked, and it's not the only moment where the count of beats is unnaturally hooky. The drums sounds in general, whether electric or acoustic, are confounding even on the lesser tracks. Greg Fox doesn't sit on single patterns for more than a few phrases at a time, but doesn't sacrifice the desired atmosphere in the process. The drums move from snare and crash hits simultaneously (blast beats) to alternately (perhaps HHH's "burst beat?") within short contexts on 'Reign Array' and 'Follow II' alike - producing hypnotizing tracks that remain so despite the fairly consistent change. Naturally, Fox is helped along by ascending guitars, bells, synths, beats, strings, and vocals that break out into major tones at the exact moments my ears need a break from all the intensity. If you listen for one of these moments around the 5:45 mark of 'Follow II', you'll know precisely what release I'm talking about.
On 'Follow' and elsewhere, the vocals attempt to imitate electronic sounds and vice versa. Although Hunt-Hendrix sounds fairly boring on tracks like 'Father Vorizen' and in a couple of other spots, he's redeemed by his ability to work synths into the lines. Again on 'Follow II', the shriek that marks the first vocal a couple of minutes in fades away into a sea of digital fog. Also, the beat on 'Quetzalcoatl' pummels away into the vocal lines that drive the song forward on a seemingly endless loop until it gives way to actual drums exploding in cymbals charging like a mammoth.
Am I the clambering fan some of these scene veterans would hate? I'm new to this genre, sub-genre, and even the band. I struggle to find out what exactly it is that drove the community so batty about Liturgy years ago. Things seem fairly clear in hindsight. But, since I wasn't there when everyone was talking about the controversy surrounding Hunt-Hendrix's rhetoric, all I really have to grasp tightly to is The Ark Work. It's catchy without sacrificing heft. It's a behemoth, but also sounds meditative. Furthermore, it doesn't seem to compromise so much as heartily invite the genres it dives into. The 808s further the black metal mission in conjunction with the intelligibility of many of the vocal lines; which paint a more distinct picture of meaning and story than an hour's worth of screaming would have (although I could use the occasional growl here). Each piece of the puzzle comes together to create a whole that's much different than most discernible forebears. As long as I don't perceive exactly what Liturgy are ripping off, I'm going to keep enjoying the moment.
