Profile Page
Here is where you can view anything and everything about your character's stats, currency, battle history, specialization, activity points, burst points, level experience. You name it.
Once Rank 5 you can send money and shards to other players here right beside Referrals and voting.
Most importantly however your skills and stats will be listed here as well. Here is a Brief overview of what each stands for.
Melee Skill determines your effectiveness with melee or physical based moves. This will improve its offense and defense. Melee moves require a certain amount of this skill to unlock.
Spirit Skill determines your effectiveness with spirit or magical based moves. This will improve its offense and defense. Spirit moves require a certain amount of this skill to unlock.
Ressureccion/Zanpakuto Skill determines your effectiveness with your release based abilities. This improves its offense and use cost. Zanpakuto moves require a certain amount of this skill and the skill of its type to unlock.
Sonido or Shunpo skill determines how many squares you will be able to move. You will have to ask your peers on what the specific requirements for this will be. This skill is used in conjunction with the speed skill to unlock the additional movement squares.
Strength will increase the power of your melee abilities.
Intelligence will increase the power of your spirit abilities.
Speed will influence who gets first turn and assist in unlocking movement squares.
Endurance improves your melee defense.
Willpower improves your spirit defense.
Referrals and voting
Here you can click each of the links and receive free money! These reset daily so be sure to cash them in when able. While you are at it vote for the site and show your support.
Here you receive and send messages privately.
Here you can equip evolutions/Items and moves you have purchased. These moves will be what appear when you go into battle.
Here is where you can post to other players in a scrolling chat. Certain memes are enabled and can be used by typing out their meme code within your mosts. Memecodes are typed out between colons. Ex. :no: :wut: :why: :howaboutno: and so on. You can view memecodes used in social by moussing over them. All memecodes are in lower-case. There are 4 Tabs to social for players. Race-Mixed-RP and Officer socials.
Here is how you move about the various maps in the game. Currently there are only 3 zones to traverse.
Hueco Mundo – The Desert lands of Hollowkind.
Soul Society – The Spiritual lands protected by the Shinigami.
Kyoto City – The neutral warzone between the two factions.
To move you can use the WASD or arrow keys. Or simply click an adjacent square on the travel grid.
Here is also where you attack other players. Towards the bottom of the travel page you will see a scan list. If players are on your square, within your rank or rank barrier you may attack them via the link to the far side. You are unable to attack players outside of your player-barrier or if they are in the same squad or Fraccion as you. In Kyoto City you are only able to attack enemy players.
Here is where you can see the Top 10 players, Online users, Game Staff, and the Leaderboards for most pvp victories. You may search for the profile pages of other users by typing their name or partially typing their name in the search bar.
Here is where you may purchase spirit shards and enjoy their perks. They can be purchased in the purchase shards tab or in the shard exchange for in game currency if they are being sold by other players. Spirit shards help fund the game so buy a few if you would like to support the game and its owner.
Central HQ
Here you can view the current faction leaders and their stats. Race points are used to purchase race-wide boosts. Here you can view all the ranks and rank names as well. Here you can view who has won the last few world bosses. The bosses themselves will be covered in another section.
Race HQ
Here you can view your race's leader as well as any race boost that is set. You may view the current Espada, Members and orders that have been set by the leader.
Fraccion HQ
Much like the Race HQ here you may view the orders and officers of your Fraccion as well as the boost currently set if any.
Here you may spar anyone in any rank if they accept your challenge. This is where you go to also accept challenges. Spars do not count against your pvp history.
This is the menu where you set your timed trainings. Training practices will be covered in a future section.
This is where you go to face off against three levels of AI. Easy-Medium-Hard.
Each increase in difficulty gives exponentially better rewards, so aim to become strong enough to defeat the hardest difficulty consistently.
Here is where you can use up your pools quickly and gain stats from them without having to fight the AI. (This is currently highly recommended once open to do so)
Regen/Medical Store
Here is where you can heal yourselves for a small amount of currency. The heals become better with each level of healing. I recommend you use the highest available healing useful to you even if you overheal a bit due to the costs.
Here is where you can view all the available moves you can purchase at your level. The farther down the list the stronger the available moves are. They come in various ranges, effects and usefulness. There is a lot of balancing that needs to be done so please be sure to read the move-section of this guide. Be sure to purchase the type of moves best suited to your specialization.
Evolutions and Items
This is where you can purchase passive bonuses to your character. You can equip them through the equip menu.
Log out timer
Players will be logged out after 60 minutes of game time. If you have a Godly Aura this goes up to 2 hours. Once expired you will be expected to log in again and taken to the front page of the site.
Whenever you fight Bosses or other players you will be taken the the Battle-grid. Here you can position your character and choose the directions of your attacks. Make sure to keep track of where you and your opponent is when deciding your moves and directions. By default you can move 2 squares.
World of Bleaches Move Library and Explanations.In this section I will go over what moves consist of and link you to a resource that explains what certain effects mean.
Move Ranges
The range format is Length-Width or L.W ex. 5.1 would be 5 squares forward and 1 square wide. This would be a thin attack that reaches out.
Effect Turns
If a move has an effect it will be listed with how many turns it will last. When a move is used it will last a certain number of turns after the turn it was used. By default AoE effects last 2-3 turns.
Melee and Spirit Differences
Melee and spirit moves are identical except for one aspect. Damage type. Melee is considered physical damage and spirit is considered magical. Resists will only apply to the appropriate damage type. Aside from this small difference they play identically.
Move levels
Moves have levels as well. The more you use a move and train it the more effective it will become. This will be covered more in best training practices.
Move types
Finally we come down to what kinds of moves there are in the game.
Stationary or Moving
If a move is stationary you remain in the same place you issue the attack. If it is moving it will cost additional pools to move however many squares the range will take you. Moving attacks gain additional range based on how many movement squares you have unlocked. Beware as moving attacks will increase your successive pool usage every time you move.
Pure moves deal flat damage and have no special effects associated with them. Aside from Recoil these moves have the highest base damage output.
Base descriptions for each of the move effects can be found here.
Best Training Practices
Here we will go over how you should plan out your training.
Once level 16 you will be asked to choose your specialization. In my opinion you will want to choose aggressive or aggressive balanced. But ultimately you can pursue any specialization you wish.
There are several types of boosts currently implemented into WoB.
Weekend Boost
Becomes available starting Saturday at 00:00 to Monday 00:00 server time. This is a flat 55% increase to all money, skills and stat gains. Moves are not effected currently.
Boss Boost
There are three different kinds of bosses. Kyoto City World Boss, Race Bosses, and Defender Bosses. Each of these bosses will yield a certain amount of % to gains. This varies on catchup-mechanics and is due to change specifically.
Event Boosts
Every once and a while the site owner bestows the gift of increased gains onto his lovely userbase. These gifts include the activity point requirements removed and increased extended trainings. Sometimes we also see high % boost to gains. (Typically for the duration of the event or holiday). Holidays also sometimes yield special items to be purchased at the Armory or Evolution menu. So be sure to check them out and get them while they last!
Move Training
Armory/Evolution moves take 30 minutes and 3 activity points to train while Zanpakuto/Reserrucion moves take 1 hour and 20 burst training points to train.
Move trainings are the equivalent of using the move about 140 times.
Here is where you can level up your moves via using them in battle or defeat the AI for gains. As it currently stands defeating the first 50 Hard AI is better than using the feeds. But once the daily bonus is gone feed/patrol is arguably more worth doing than AI. Unlike PvP or boss fighting this is your traditional Browser based combat. Choose a move, use it, and repeat until the AI or you are dead.
This is currently the best way to gain general stats without time training them. It is simple, quick, and effective.
Desert AI and feeds have a chance to be "Lucky" or "UberLucky" these double and quadruple the gains respectfully. However for Feeds these lucky gains are twice as effective.
Through The Ranks
This part of the guide is specific to each rank that will be listed below. These suggestions may bend the rules a little bit due to having to have players get on their feet before they can make full use of the optimum training path.
Devouring Beast
This is the rank that will get you familiar with the Hollow interface. To get through this rank you simply will need to train your desired primary skill and secondary skill. It isn't absolutely required but if you want through this rank quickly, you should take the two AI spam moves below and kill as much Desert AI as possible.
Moves of the Rank
Claw of the Fallen (Melee) Heartless Destruction (Spirit)
Regardless of Rank, having one AI spam move from each skill is essential for the most efficient training. This is due to even though you may specialize in melee or spirit exclusively, you still have a lot of pools in the opposite skill that will otherwise go un-used.
Huge Hollow
When you enter this rank you will choose your specialization. I highly recommend going with any of the three aggressive specializations at the time of writing this guide.
Aggressive spirit - Aggressive Melee - Aggressive Balanced.
As Stated before, just because you specialize in only one skill, you should always have the secondary skill trained for defensive purposes as well as training purposes.
If you do specialize in balance, note that this may require a lot more patience and training to make full optimal use of the specialization. But, in addition to more training, it is possible to also train faster if you evenly increase the potency of both your skills and moves. This is due to being able to make full use of both pools evenly, as well as regen them evenly. You will also deal roughly the same damage to AI with both skill types if you keep everything consistent.
Moves of the Rank
This is where your most important set of moves will come from in terms of defeating AI. These two moves listed below will set the pace of your training in the long run until late Rank six.
Burning Roar (Spirit)| 6,000 spirit skill - Rending Claws (Melee)| 6,000 melee skill
This is when you will want to start move training, however you may not immediately be able to pick up either of these moves when you rank. These two particular moves hold the highest damage to pool usage ratio of all the moves until Rank 6 where the two pure damage moves there go unrivaled.
Refer to the What to train when portion of the guide from here on out. If all of the listed moves cap you are free to train skill exclusively until you reach the next set of listed moves.
From here on out my views on when to rank up vary from my peers, but my suggestion is to always cap your primary skill, take your secondary skill to half cap (If melee or spirit specialization) or both skills to cap if you are balanced. If your generals happen to cap from spamming AI before meeting the skill requirement then you may also rank.
My biggest reasoning for this is because every time you rank up, the AI will become more difficult, and ranking up immediately may slow your ability to kill these Hard AI consistently. Granted once your general stats cap, this impediment will no longer matter since you won't be able to gain anything more in your current rank anyway.
Regardless if you decided to hold or not, the training path remains the same. In this rank more moves are added to your training list and your skill/stat caps increase.
Moves of the Rank
In this rank Boosts, resists, and heals come into play. This guide is not about explaining the uses of each one, but know they all play an important role in combat even to the last rank.
Melee moves include:
Diamond Armor(Dual Resist), Primal Hunger (Melee Boost), Abyssal Resolve (Melee Heal)
Spirit moves include: Unrelenting Resolve(Dual Resist), Malevolent Aura (Spirit Boost), High Speed Regeneration (Spirit Heal)
Balanced users can make full use of combining melee and spirit moves. However it is important to know that the Healing moves in particular can only be used by their primary specialization or a balanced user. Using the healing move from the opposite skill will result in a much weaker effect to the point where it isn't worth using at all.
ex. Melee using a spirit heal will have next to no gains regardless of spirit skill. Yet a balanced user can use both freely regardless of skill amount and gain full benefit as long as it is trained.
In this rank we are only introduced to 1 important long lasting move. And that is a moving attack. If you ended up having to rank too soon before your moves completely capped, make full use of this rank to finish training your listed moves before moving on.
Once in this rank other players are free to attack you if they are in your rank as well. Invasions allow the opposite race to kill you regardless of rank. And in the KC opposite race players in your rank barrier may also attack you. In this case it is R5-R6. Or Ranked officers and Elite officers.
Moves of the Rank
Primal Shot (Melee) And Arrancar Cero (Spirit) are Pre-R7 moving attacks.
If you have no interest in holding R6 in the long term then this move is skippable.
Elite Fraccion
In this rank is when you want to make a long term commitment before moving on. As well as decide if you want to assist your race by stopping your training here once capped or to keep training in the new rank barrier.
Moves of the Rank
In this rank you also are introduced to several moves that hold great significance in the long run. Capping all of these moves will make you much more battle-ready in this rank and the next.
Environmental resistance (Melee Barrier) - Wrenching Twist (Melee Weakness) - Tigerstrike (New Melee Pure damage move that replaces Rending Claw)
Dark Matter Barrier (Spirit Barrier) - Oblivion Sphere (Spirit Weakness) - Voidmaw (New Spirit Pure damage move that replaces Burning Roar)
Privaron Espada
In this rank you cut off all ties to the last two ranks player-wise, only being able to interact with them in spars or possibly invasions. You are now at the bottom of the new rank barrier and training time is increase exponentially in this rank and the next. But don't fret, keep on training consistently and not giving up will possibly result in you becoming one of our honorary Espada!
Moves of the Rank
This rank introduces several moves that may find some use to you.
Double Vortex Strike (Melee Range Nerf) - Scorching Reishi (Melee Fire AoE) - Limitless Onslaught (Melee Moving Attack) - Toxic Pheremone (Melee Poison AoE)
Hollow Singularity (Spirit Range Nerf) - Dark Nova (Spirit Fire AoE) - Flash Sonido (Spirit moving attack) Deathly Swamp (Spirit Poison AoE)
I'm not a large fan on Poison AoE, but it is still effective for what it does.
Legendary Espada
The final rank that boasts the highest xp ceiling in the game. As expected will take the longest out of all the ranks to train but will yield power unrivaled should you be able to seize it.
Moves of the Rank
Finally we come down to the last set of moves for this particular guide, their may be moves not listed in this guide that are worth getting, but at least with this you will at least have a base to work from.
Almost all moves in this rank are worth taking, it will be up to you to decide which to utilize.
I Personally suggest taking the 5.3 Pure damage move for either skill at the very least and experiment from there.
I hope you all enjoyed this guide and find it useful for your WoB experience. If you like the game please show support and purchase spirit shards to enjoy the Premium perks!
This will be my last guide unless something changes my mind. I apologize for any mistakes made in this guide and that despite any flaws it may have it is overall helpful to you.
Happy Hunting

Like an hourglass figure or the ability to save any of my Chipotle bowl for later, long, fluttery lashes are something I gave up on having a long time ago. But acceptance does not mean admitting defeat, and over the years, I've tried everything under the sun to fake a doe-eyed look. Lash serums? Done that—I found that they helped with length but not with volume. Eyelash extensions? Had them for a year and a half and then was so traumatized by the broken, stubby state of my bare lashes when I got them off that I've rarely gotten them since, even though I love the way they look.
Every mascara under the sun, all promising me the world? Like boys with tousled hair and an inability to commit, most of them fell far short of their promises. (Benefit Badgal Bang and Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir were two of the few that didn't disappoint). When it comes to long lashes, some might call me an obsessive—though, I prefer the term "devoted fan." So when I met with the founder of a company called Lashify who promised me her at-home lash-extension product was groundbreaking, my thin, barely-there lashes and I were more than intrigued.
Spoiler alert: I'm never getting lash extensions again.
The item above is Lashify's hero product called the Control Kit. It's sleek and about the size of a Chanel Wallet on a Chain bag, though much less expensive. But like a Chanel bag, having it in my possession has given me a great amount of joy. The backstory: Lashify's founder, Sahara Lotti, was a lash-extension devotee like myself but was tired of going back for refills every few weeks and spending upward of $100 each time, not to mention seeing the damage it was doing to her natural lashes (same).
Determined to find an alternative, she went straight to the motherland of beauty innovation: South Korea. There, she found a manufacturer that was able to create the lightest, wispiest lashes on the market (seriously, they don't weigh anything), which she dubbed Gossamers (see below). Next, she just had to figure out a way for the average woman to learn how to apply them, which is how she developed Lashify's unique fusing wand and bonding adhesive.
The Gossamer lashes come in little clusters and, at first glance, look similar to the individual lash clusters you can buy at the drugstore (or spiders, according to my brother's alarmed reaction when I bought them with me on a recent trip home). But the thing that sets these apart is how light-as-air and realistic-looking they are. Anyone who's worn false lashes knows that the classic ones all have that telltale strip at the base of your lash (dead giveaway), and even the individual-cluster lashes are thicker and more plastic-looking than anyone's natural lashes.
Not the case with Lashify Gossamers. First of all, you apply these from below your lash line at the base of your lashes, so you literally can't see where your natural lashes start and the Gossamers begin. Second of all, unlike normal falsies, they can actually last three to five days, thanks to Lashify's "fusing" technique. And lastly, they come in three different curls and lengths that all look freakishly natural and real. "A" is the most natural, "C" is for curl, and "B" is for bold. Each of these types also come in three different lengths: 10, 12, and 14.
So an A10 lash would be the most natural-looking, a C12 lash would be curled and slightly longer, B14 would be your boldest-looking lash… You get the idea.
Before Lashify
As you can see in the makeup-free photo above, my natural lashes are practically invisible without the help of mascara. Seriously, though—where are they?
After Lashify
Ah, there they are. But they're not my real lashes—they're Lashify. See how realistic they look, though? It's almost like I'm one of those people who can just tint her lashes and call it a day (what must that be like…).
So here's how it works. In the Control Kit, there's a dual-sized bonding adhesive. One side is white (which is stronger) and the other black (which you can use to touch up your lashes throughout the three-to-five-day period you have them on). I wiggle the adhesive brush (which looks like a super-skinny plastic mascara wand) at the base of my lashes to disperse the adhesive, then use the tweezer-like fusing wand to pick up a Gossamer and place it at the base of my lashes from below. Once you're happy with the look, you "fuse" the lashes to your actual lashes using the Fusing Wand (it's sort of like curling your lashes, except you're holding the wand sideways when you clamp down).You have about a minute or two to work with it before the adhesive dries, so there is that slight time pressure.
As someone who gets her best work done under a time crunch, I find it slightly exhilarating. Each Control Kit comes with two sets of Gossamers, but you can also order more separately. The part I love most about this product is that you are in charge of customizing the lash look you end up with. I like a very natural, slightly feline look, so I usually place two A12 or A14 Gossamers on the outer edge of my eye, then a C12, then a C10 in the very inner corners. The end result is a super-natural, fanned-out effect.
It takes a little while to get the hang of the technique, but I felt pretty confident in my ability to use Lashify after the second or third time practicing (though I do have a pretty steady hand, and not to brag or anything, used to apply my eyeliner perfectly in the car while driving to work when I lived in LA. Yes, I'm also very modest—why do you ask?). Nowadays, it takes me less than 30 minutes to do a full set of lashes, and less if I'm just filling in. Plus, Lotti does daily Instagram Live tutorials on Lashify's Instagram page so you can get a visual of how exactly to use the kit and get her tips.
(Trust me, it's way more helpful than reading through my instructions.)
I like to finish off the look by filling in my waterline with a black gel eyeliner and then flicking out a tiny baby wing in each corner with liquid liner—I found that this really makes it so that the Gossamers look super natural. The lashes definitely look the best on the first day, and then I've found that it's hit-or-miss on how long they last. The other day, the Gossamers felt like they were coming loose after just one day (nothing a quick fusing couldn't fix), but I've also gone to a bachelorette in New Orleans with them on, lost my kit under mysterious circumstances on the first day, and still been happy with how they looked on day four (and let's just say they'd been through, ahem, a lot by that point).
Use the Fuse Control Wand once before bed each night to keep your lashes secured, and then touch up whenever it seems like any of the Gossamers might be coming loose.
And because you're probably wondering: yes, you can shower with them in—I just try my best to avoid getting too much water or shampoo on my face to keep them looking as airy and fluffy as possible after they dry. I've found that they tend to start falling apart and clumping together slightly if they get wet more than once, and I'll have to swap in new Gossamers if I want to keep them looking fresh.
It's truly game-changing to me that I can get the natural, fluttery look of lash extensions without having to lie down with my eyes shut for over an hour, giving someone else the power to determine the final look. It's an empowering feeling, to be in charge of your lash destiny! (Lashify, feel free to use that as your new tagline.) Plus, the Gossamers are so light and easy to remove that they leave zero damage to my actual lashes. I just make sure to use a growth serum (GrandeLash and Talika are my faves) on my days off to make sure my natural lashes are in good shape.
Yes, the Control Kit is pricey at $125, but you can create at least two or three full sets of lashes from everything included, which pretty amazing considering you have to shell out $100+ for just one full set of lash extensions. Plus, if you're a full-blown obsessive, you can sign up for the Lashify X program, where you pay $40 a month and get four sets of Gossamers of your choosing. So technically, you'd only have to pay for a Control Kit once, then just buy the Gossamers each time since the adhesive lasts forever and you only ever need one fusing wand.
A lot of people might be wondering, But why would you pay $125 for false lashes when you can get them for $3 at a drugstore? Well, first of all, comparing Lashify to drugstore false lashes is like comparing Veuve Clicquot to Sprite. Do they both have bubbles? Yes. Are they both sort of sweet-tasting? Yes. But anyone can tell you that's where the similarities end (especially because Veuve is the one that gets you happy-drunk and thus wins automatically). Yes, you could go to the drugstore and get false strip lashes or even individual lashes, but the final effect won't look half as mind-blowingly natural as what Lashify looks like.
I would say that if you like to use a strip lash on special occasions but are pretty happy with the natural state of your lashes on a daily basis, or if you want your lashes to look super-bold and clearly faux, Lashify is probably not for you. But if you are obsessed with lash extensions and want an alternative that won't damage your lashes or just want long lashes that actually look like they could be real, then Lashify just might change everything. I know it did for me. Now, excuse me while I go fuse my lashes.

Co-City: the collaborative management of urban commons to counteract poverty and socio-spatial polarisation
Co-city is the winner of the first Urban Innovation Action Call of EU.Co-city aims to break the self-
reinforcing circle of poverty, social segregation and lack of participation in deprived neighbourhoods. An approach centered on urban commons will achieve this goal by supporting the development of a polycentric "urban welfare". Generative communities will provide low-cost services, co-production facilities, social mixing and care of public spaces.
Co-city is innovative in its legal, managerial and technological aspects:
- an unconventional legal framework to enable citizens to take care of urban commons
- an innovative ICT infrastructure for local social market and networking
- management tutoring towards economic sustainability
In the project the traditional authoritative model is replaced by a collaborative one that considers citizens as potential changemakers and agents of virtuous processes of welfare. Meanwhile, the public sector evolves from service provider to enabler and partner.
Furthermore Co-city will experiment blockchain technologies powering a collaborative decentralized environment. Citizens who participate in the urban commons will benefit of new forms of welfare by obtaining crypocredits and voting rights as well as coupons, gift cards, loyalty points that will involve local retailers. Game theoretic frameworks will power such interactions aiming to create a commons-centered circular economy. Firstlife, a geolocated social network,will provide a user interface, exploring the potential of the forthcoming proximity internet.
BLINC ("BLockchain INclusiva per Cittadinanze digitali") is a regional project recently funded by the European Regional Development Fund.The project aims to improve migrants integration leveraging blockchain technologies.We will design and develop a mobile based virtual briefcase to securely keep and share self-generated certificates and documents. Coupling blockchains with distributed encrypted storage the project aims to build technological expertise on "granular privacy controls", a fundamental step towards a user-led exploitation of big-data.

It's a beautiful thing to see how all six facets work together in a single poem--and to see that she was able to do this forty times!Juliahttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557364020439793372.post-4884219000491180042011-02-21T05:32:38.501-05:002011-02-21T05:32:38.501-05:00"We see the "Pivot of heels and knees!" ..."We see the "Pivot of heels and knees!" as the Japanese people run; the "hooks" of shrapnel, radiation peeling skin and death; and of course, the red eye as the flag of Japan."

This is a very interesting interpretation of Ariel - something that had never occurred to be but seems entirely plausible considering the way Plath uses historical imagery in oblique ways in P.H.Davieshttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

In just a few weeks, our new season of music will be launched, thankfully after the election and just in time for us all to start gathering together for Thanksgiving feasts, holiday parties and soul-satisfying concerts. And what a terrific season has emerged!
Highlights are difficult to prioritize because all of the concerts seem like they will be highlights.
In February, the Norway Pond Festival Singers, with its annual contingent of tenors and basses, will join forces with the Conval Select Chorus and a hot new Bluegrass ensemble out of the NE Conservatory called The Ladles for a performance of Carol Barnett's powerful "The World Beloved: A Bluegrass Mass".
And the Hancock Family Christmas Concert just keeps getting better (and more crowded!). This year, guitarist John Muratore will be our guest artist, joining the Junior Minstrels, Festival Singers and Village Ringers.
Our first concert on November 13th is going to appeal to a broad spectrum of music-lovers. Three Blind Mice is an uncannily engaging jazz trio from NE Conservatory. There might even be some tap-dancing involved.
During last year's well-received performance of "Of Thee I Sing", we all fell in love with presidential candidate John P. Wintergreen played by David McFerrin. Lucky us…he has agreed to return and sing a poignantly crafted recital of songs from World War I with soprano Deborah Selig.
The premier string quartet from NE Conservatory, the Omer Quartet, will be causing our pulses to race at their performance in April.
The schedule is outlined below. There are four Series concerts and you can order season tickets online or at the door. Tickets to the Bluegrass Mass must be purchased separately. Your donations at the door for both the Family Christmas Concert and Junior Mints production of Bells Are Ringing ("The Party's Over", "Just in Time") will be gratefully received.
And finally, our annual BISTRO DINNER is on Saturday, April 8th and will feature a film called "Talent Has Hunger" about four young cellists in Boston over a five year period. It is a compelling documentary and features three cellists who have played here in Hancock. One of them, Emileigh Vandiver ("The Armed Man") will be at the dinner.
So, let the music begin! I can't wait to greet you all at the door of the Meeting House. Thank goodness for music – it lights up the soul and connects all of us in the best of ways.

Rep. Frances P. Bolton dies, March 9, 1977
On this day in 1977, Frances Payne Bolton of Ohio, a leading Republican civil rights advocate who served in the House from 1940 to 1969, died in her hometown of Lyndhurst, Ohio, three weeks before her 92nd birthday. Her son was Oliver Payne Bolton (1917-1972), a member of the House from 1953 to 1957 and from 1963 to 1965, and she remains the only mother ever to serve in that chamber simultaneously with her child.
Frances Bolton was first elected to the House to fill the unexpired term of her late husband, Rep. Chester Bolton (1882-1939). Initially, Republican leaders viewed her as a temporary caretaker of the Cleveland seat, which Chester Bolton won in 1928. But she had other ideas, embarking on a political career that spanned three decades.
Story Continued Below
Although initially an isolationist — her late husband had served as a U.S. Army officer in World War I — she became a strong advocate for the war effort after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. She authored the Bolton Act of 1943, which created the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps, a unit that trained thousands of wartime nurses. Reflecting Bolton's sympathy for the civil rights of African-Americans, the legislation mandated that the corps be funded without regard to race or ethnicity, an unusual proviso at the time.
As Bolton put it, "America cannot be less than herself once she awakens to the realization that freedom does not mean license and that license can be the keeping of others from sharing that freedom." On the House Foreign Affairs Committee, where Bolton became ranking minority member, she focused on economic aid and human rights in Africa. In 1953, President Dwight Eisenhower appointed her to serve as a congressional delegate to the U.N. General Assembly; she was the first woman to do so.

Personal Injury Medical Malpractice Automobile Accidents Business Law Construction Law Contracts
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when a professional or facility (such as a doctor, nurse or hospital) fails to use due care and departs from accepted medical practice causing injury to a patient during medical treatment. We are highly experienced and successful medical malpractice attorneys based in New York City with the utmost respect for members of the medical community. However, the laws mandate that healthcare professionals are accountable for instances of malpractice as the effects of negligence on the patient and their loved ones can be devastating and last a lifetime.
A study in the current issue of the Journal of Patient Safety says between 210,000 and 440,000 patients each year who go to the hospital for care suffer some type of preventable harm that contributes to their death. That would make medical errors the third-leading cause of death in America, behind heart disease, which is the first, and cancer, which is second. For a medical malpractice claim to be viable, the conduct that caused the injury must violate "the standard of care" in the medical community. The standard of care means the generally accepted practices and procedures of medical professionals performing the particular treatment in the particular local area.
Our lawyers are specialists at evaluating and handling New York and New York City medical malpractice claims. We quickly consult with medical experts to determine if a doctor failed to follow accepted standards of medical care in treating a patient thereby causing their injuries. Medical Malpractice Lawyers Magazine of 2012 listed our Firm as "The Top 1% Trial Counsel for Medical Malpractice" in N.Y. A sample of our results was featured in the New York Law Journal, "Verdicts and Settlements Hall of Fame: Medical Malpractice" in 2014 for the verdict of $3,500,000 in Stothart v. Montefiore Medical Center: Negligent Treatment category. Call us for a free consultation if you want to be advised promptly and accurately if and when a claim for medical malpractice may arise. Examples of New York City medical malpractice claims we have handled include, but are not limited to:
- Doctor fails to diagnose or misdiagnoses a medical condition resulting in the patient not receiving timely and possibly life saving treatment
- Surgical procedure is carelessly performed resulting in injury and wrongful death
- Doctor leaves behind a sponge or gauze during surgery resulting in an infection which requires additional surgeries
- Doctor's advice falls below the standard of care in the profession
- Child sustains permanent injuries during delivery such as Cerebral Palsy from lack of oxygen
- Nursing home resident suffers from injury as a result of nursing home negligence or abuse
When a patient suffers significant harm and injury as a result of serious misconduct by a healthcare provider, we collaborate with competent medical professionals to thoroughly investigate such incidents. If there has in fact been a departure from accepted medical practice resulting in significant harms and losses, we strive to ensure you receive the fairest compensation attainable for any injuries sustained. We only accept and pursue cases in which a medical professional has concluded that medical misconduct resulting in serious and permanent injuries has occurred.
Mr. DeFilippis is an experienced, leading personal injury and medical malpractice attorney with proven experience trying cases in Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, Manhattan and Westchester. Why is this significant? Although any lawyer could take a case to trial, very few actually do. The insurance companies know this and they will try to settle a case for far less than what the case is worth. The actual trial experience of Peter DeFilippis & Associates is a strength. We have proven to the insurance industry, that our Attorneys mean business. We will not hesitate to take a case to trial when it is in the best interest of our clients. Every one of our cases is accepted with the intention of preparing the matter for a trial, if necessary.
Mr. DeFilippis, his staff and attorneys have successfully processed many medical malpractice cases from Bronx to Brooklyn to Westchester including such areas as:
- Brain damaged babies
- Cerebral palsy
- Erb's palsy caused by improper delivery
- Quadriplegia, paraplegia, paralysis and spinal cord injuries due to negligent surgery or injections
- Failure to timely perform Cesarean section
- Failure to timely diagnose breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer and other forms of cancer
- Improper administration of medication
- Negligent stomach stapling/gastric bypass surgery
- Amputation of limbs due to improper diagnosis or treatment
- Negligent hip, knee and joint replacement surgery
- Negligent treatment of fractures
- Emergency room negligence
- Failure to diagnose and treat heart attack, stroke and aortic dissection
- Hospital acquired infections
- Failure to diagnose infections
- Bed-sores (decubitus ulcers)
- Podiatric malpractice and surgery
- Chiropractic malpractice
- Negligent gall bladder surgery
- Uncontrolled hemorrhage during or after surgery
- Improper use of medical instruments, including post surgery compression devices

Medical malpractice cases are handled on a contingency basis, in accord with a fee schedule set by the those in charge of monitoring the legal profession, which means we do not get paid unless we recover on your behalf.

text: Viet Nam News HÀ NỘI – After a four year hiatus, the Việt Nam Caricature Contest is open for applications again. The fifth edition of the contest was launched at the National Centre for News by Sport& Culture newspapers yesterday, themed 'Cultural Behaviours: Civilised Society'. According to the organising board, the aim of the contest is to encourage caricature drawing among "painting journalists" nationwide, offer new spiritual food for thought to audiences, promote the art form and honour caricaturists. "This year's theme will use the laughter of caricatures to remind each person of proper behaviour in every place," said the editor-in-chief of Sport & Culture newspaper Lê Xuân Thành. "We all know that laughter is the best medicine; therefore, caricature not only criticises uncultured behaviours but also supports civilised ones. We believe that caricatures can lead to positive changes in behavioural culture in the community, which is also a way to promote the 96-year tradition of Việt Nam's caricature." The contest is open to all applicants, including professional and amateur caricaturists, both Vietnamese and foreigners living in Việt Nam, though all entries must be published in a Vietnamese newspaper from the start of this year until the end of the contest, December 1. The winning caricaturists, besides receiving cash awards, will have their work exhibited in public spaces including the pedestrian zone around Hoàn Kiếm Lake in Hà Nội and book street Nguyễn Văn Bình in HCM City, aiming to bring caricatures closer to the public and raise awareness about… [Read full story]

Social City Networking has had the privilege to connect and collaborate with some pretty inspiring and amazing organizations and individuals. With our focus being COMMUNITY, we provide opportunity to expand your personal and professional networks by providing continuous up to date information about interesting events, causes, organizations, businesses, and individuals in YOUR CITY. It has been our great pleasure to have connected to Nicole Bridger and the amazing fashion lines that she has created, here in Vancouver BC.
A little background:
Born and raised in Vancouver, Nicole received her BAA in fashion design from Ryerson University in Toronto ON. During an internship in London with Vivienne Westwood, Nicole learned the art of sculpting, draping and layering fabric. Nicole Bridger founded her fashion line on the belief that fashion doesn't have to sacrifice a commitment to the environment. Nicole Bridger uses the finest ethically-sourced materials and dyes.
"Nicole Bridger is a fashion line for a new generation of women who want to look effortlessly chic while maintaining a commitment to the earth and its people. Each collection is composed of stand-out pieces which reflect one's individuality and femininity.
Every item makes an impression when worn alone, and when combined with other pieces the result is a statement of modern, refined style. Tailored from the highest quality ethical materials, every item flatters the natural curves of a woman's body, making her feel graceful and elegant in any setting." – Nicole Bridger, www.nicolebridger.com
We sat down with Nicole to find out more about what inspires her, as well as what community and being SOCIAL in our CITY means to her:
SC: What does community mean to you, in one word?
Nicole: "Support"
SC: What about fashion attracted you to participate, and how do you feel it benefits the community?
Nicole: We all wear clothes, might as well make them in a way that supports the planet and its people, which is what a community is made of. Clothes can also help make a person feel good, when a person feels good they have more to give to those around them throughout their day.
SC: What is one major lesson/learning you are taking away from your experience involved in it?
Nicole: So far? The journey has only just begun… I'd say listen to your heart, your inner knowing, it knows the way.
SC: Why is community personally important to you?
Nicole: We are social creatures, we do much better when we are surrounded by great people, helping each other through life. And its just more fun when we do it together!
SC: What is a personal experience you have had where social networking has benefited you in accomplishing your dreams?
Nicole: Gosh, where has it not? I'm creating a product and without clients and fans I would not be doing this. Getting the word out is the most important part.
SC: What is some advice that you would like to share to aspiring community leaders?
Nicole: Do what inspires you, what you feel passionate about.
SC: What is your socially conscious contribution to your community?
Nicole: I create socially conscious clothing.
SC: What are your favorite top 3 places to be SOCIAL in your CITY?
Nicole: 1. Wreck
2. Gastown
3. Dance floor.
We think Nicole is awesome, and a local inspiration.
Nicole Bridger will also be opening this week's Vancouver Eco Fashion Week season tonight with her Fall/Winter 2012 collection featuring Mala Imports. The show will be hosted at The Vogue Theatre, at 7pm.

Into chocolate? What about those beautiful sugar sculptures you've seen on the Food Network? Or maybe making a wedding cake, or even carving a rose out of a watermelon?
Hands-on workshops took place in all four of these subjects for chefs from around the world as part of the American Culinary Federation's convention in Anaheim on Sunday.
Expert chefs in each field conducted the classes, which were definitely hands-on. No lectures, but practical work on how to achieve superior results in each class.
Teaching students about the finer things of making chocolate candies was Richard Cusick of Barry Callebaut, USA.
Passing along her cake techniques in the fondant class was the cake designer from the Wynn and Encore hotels in Las Vegas, Flora Aghababyan.
The convention will run through Wednesday at the Anaheim Convention Center, the trade show is open to the public and will feature the Student Team National Championship of cooking Tuesday morning.
Beginning Tuesday afternoon at 3 p.m. is the American Culinary Federation National Championship.
The other workshops included: the art and science of sugar pulling and sculpting was being taught by Thomas Trevethan, formerly pastry chef at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas, and soon to be at the soon to open Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas.
Finally, Joseph Poon of Wok N'Walk Tours in Philadelphia, who has also appeared on many television shows, showed chefs how to carve roses, frogs and fish out of a watermelon.
I got the chance to attend all four workshops and shoot video to learn about some of the secrets of the trades that each chef offered.

Gynecomastia Surgery
Plastic surgery to correct Gynecomastia symptoms is quite common. Although the surgery is common, surgical treatment is not for everyone. Healthy men who have tried dieting and weight loss with no result, are usually the best candidates for surgery.
If excess fatty and glandular tissue is the cause of the male breast enlargement, the surgeon will remedy the problem by removing the excess tissue with a scalpel and following up with liposuction. The surgery itself generally lasts up to an hour and a half and, in most cases, is outpatient. Although it is advised that the patient stay active throughout recovery, it is important to avoid exercise and strenuous activity for 2-3 weeks following the surgery. At that point, the patient should be feeling normal and able to function normally. Some pain and loss of feeling in the chest may occur for up to a year following the surgery.
For the most part, the surgery is quick and seamless, with few side effects. However, side effects may include infection, skin injury, excessive bleeding, and excessive fluid loss or accumulation. Long-term scars may also result from the surgery, however they are generally quite small. Slightly mismatched breasts or nipple alignment may also occur.
Temporary side effects may include pain, loss of breast sensation and numbness.

To Charles Lyell 6 March [1863]
March 6th
My dear Lyell.
Putting you off was a great & bitter disappointment,1 I shd. so have liked to have talked over many points & Owen's false letter.2 But I had no choice, & I much fear that Emma is right & that I must knock off all work & all of us go to Malvern for two months.3 I get on with nothing.— Thank you much for your interesting note.—4 Keep Dana—5
I have been of course, deeply interested by your Book:6 I have hardly any remarks worth sending, but will scribble a little on what most interested me. But I will first get out what I hate saying, viz that I have been greatly disappointed that you have not given judgment & spoken fairly out what you think about the derivation of Species.7 I shd. have been contented if you had boldly said that species have not been separately created, & had thrown as much doubt as you like on how far variation & N. Selection suffices. I hope to Heaven I am wrong (& from what you say about Whewell it seems so) but I cannot see how your Chapters can do more good than an extraordinarily able review."8 I think the Parthenon is right that you will leave the Public in a fog.9 No doubt they may infer that as you give more space to myself, Wallace & Hooker than to Lamarck, you think more of us.10 But I had always thought that your judgment would have been an epoch in the subject.11 All that is over with me; & I will only think on the admirable skill with which you have selected the striking points & explained them.— No praise can be too strong, in my opinion, on that inimitable chapter on language in comparison with species.12
Now for a few trifling criticisms13
p. 187. Sentence beginning "my friend Mr Evans" not clear:14
p. 229 sentence "but long after that period" seems to me awkward & not clear.15
p. 231— "hence there will be passages" It is not clear whether you refer to glaciers or floating ice-bergs, if the latter might they not have been overturned?16
p. 257. "For Cap—Sullivan read Sulivan17
p. 264— I wonder you did not add a vivid sentence, which you could have done so well, at the end of Glen Roy, on our almost still seeing the glacier lakes.18
p. 278. the number of the p. itself at top is inverted—19
I think the glacier chapters are almost the best in the book.20 The closing pages of Ch. XIV are magnificient, I can use no other term.21 I think this discussion has interested me almost more than the antiquity of man. The gloss of novelty was worn off the latter, yet I have been deeply struck by the effect of the agglomerated evidence.
p. 294 might not you have added preservation of striæ under lakes & according to Smith of J. Hill under tidal fiords.22
p. 323 ought you not to have added a sentence or two on the glacial phenomena of S. America & N. Zealand?23 Have you heard of Haast's statemts of pre-historic man in N. Zealand?24 I was disappointed that you did not discuss the supposed warmer period after glacial period in N. America—
How admirable are your remarks on Ramsay's Theory!25
p. 367. I do not know whether Hooker will approve of your coupling his name with mine on mundane glacial period He has often fought me strongly on it—26 I feel a conviction that no view throws so much light on Geograph. Distrib: Hooker even in his late papers on Fernando Po & Cameroon Mts does not allude to the coldness of the Tropics.27 These latter cases seem to me to prove that Africa was then colder, & this was the only quarter of the globe where full proof was wanting. I think I convinced Hooker that the general phenomena are not explicable on the assumption that one Tropical region remained hot as a refuge for Tropical productions.28
p. 370. 5 lines from bottom Ought not "polished" to be added before "stone"? as it stands it is very puzzling.—29
p. 374— Wd not S. Africa be a better case with its elephants rhinos. Lions, Hippopotamus &c living in swarms formerly with savage man30
p. 379. I cannot see the force of your argument. Has not the Australian remained a savage to the present day?31
Ch. XXI I think it wd have been advantageous to have enlarged a little more on Nat. Selec. explaining adaptations; at least this was the turning point with me.32
Wd it not have been well to have given a few more striking instances of rudiments?33
How admirably you treat the imperfection of Geolog. record in many places.34
p. 417 It is of little consequence, but Hooker published his Essay a month after the Origin; see my Hist. Introduct. I asked him.35
p. 421. Who is Sefström? neither Lubbock or I ever heard of him.36
p 446. 14 lines from bottom. A person might say that you thought that bats & rodents were not placentals. you show afterwards that this would be a mistake37
p. 447. The fewness of individuals in Islands I believe, as explained in Origin, wd account for the no great amount of transmutation therein.38
450. What a pity you give Owen's name of "macrurus" instead of von Meyer's proper name of Lithographicus.39
p. 469. Any one might argue from the middle paragraph that you were far from believing that man was descended from any animal.40
P. 497 Top of p. Compare mind of dog with its wild aboriginal.41
P. 500. I am surprized at what you say about man & Miocene strata considering great gap between man & other animals.—42
p. 505. Sentence at top of p. makes me groan.43
I suppose you could not lend me Owen's paper on the Aye Aye? Is the part very expensive? I am sorely tempted to expose in Athenæum what rubbish Owen has written on the subject.44
I know you will forgive me for writing with perfect freedom; for you must know how deeply I respect you, as my old honoured guide & master.— I heartily hope & expect that your Book will have gigantic circulation & may do in many ways as much good as it ought to do.—45
I am tired; so no more. I have written so briefly that you will have to guess my meaning. I fear my remarks are hardly worth sending— Farewell—with kindest remembrances to Lady Lyell | Ever yours | C. Darwin
Comments at length on CL's book [Antiquity of man (1863)]. CD is "greatly disappointed that you have not given judgment and spoken fairly out what you think about the derivation of species".
Lists large number of queries concerning minor points.
Praises especially the chapters on language and glaciers.
Comments on the temperature of Africa during the glacial period, especially with regard to the views of Hooker.
Mentions Owen's paper on the aye-aye [Rep. BAAS 32 (1862) pt 2: 114–16].

Hello - it's mid week and I'm sharing a few WIP's ☺
Two weeks ago I posted HERE!
I've been playing around with t-shirt yarn. It's rather fun to work with.
My floor cushion is on hold as I wait for more orange yarn, but I did pick up some black from our local Bunnings in the gardening section.
I decided to try and make a floor rug using the yarn and also cotton twine.
I'm following this pattern from HERE.
Looking forward to sharing more of these projects as they progress ☺
Today I'm linking up with Bec at Handmade + Home
Wishing you a creative week.
That's all for this Wednesday ♥♥

The TREES-3 project of the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission aimed at assessing change of the world's tropical forest cover, for the periods 1990–2000 and 2000–2010. Based on a systematic sampling approach, multi-temporal satellite imagery were analysed for a large number of sample sites in the tropics (4016 sample units of 10x10 km2 size).
Processing: Imagery of Landsat satellites (TM and ETM+ sensors) at spatial resolution of 30m was pre-processed as input to automated procedures of image segmentation (eCognition software), digital classification and change detection. Visual assessments and quality control/validation were performed using dedicated image analysis tools and involving forestry experts from tropical countries. Changes in forest area were mapped and change statistics and matrices established. The results also served as input to the Remote Sensing Survey of the FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment programme (FRA).

Shoot us an email at email@example.com or shoot us a text at 916.715.0595 with the name and contact person of your favorite cafe location.
We will be posting all the new cafe locations as they lock in, these coming weeks!
Always a pleasure to see your shining spirit at the market! See YOU Soon!!!
