New Driveways
Looking to have a new driveway installed? We will grade and install any gravel needed to acieive proper grade. Gravel will be compacted with our compaction roller. Driveway is then laid out per the sketch on your proposal. The asphalt is then laid in two layers, 1.5" base course and then a 1.5" top course. Both layers are rolled to achieve proper compaction. With proper maintanace, your driveway will last for many years of use and enjoyment!
Already have an existing asphalt driveway or parking lot that needs attention? You have two choices, an overlay or a tear out.
An overlay consists of putting another layer of asphalt over the old. Generally this layer ranges from 1.25"-1.75". The existing asphalt would be cleaned and then a bonding agent would be applied to bond the new asphalt to the old.
While the price of an overlay may look more appealing than tearing out the old asphalt and putting in a complete new driveway or parking lot, there are some downfalls with an overlay. If you have large cracks in the asphalt, they can reflect through to the new asphalt in as little as 6 months to a year. If you have existing water issues like puddles or ponding of water, we will do our best efforts to eliminate them, but we may not be able to work all the water off.
Remove and Replace, also known as a tear out.
This is the best option, yet is the most costly and complex. If you are looking for a long term asphalt job, this is the option to go with. The existing asphalt is removed and the sub grade is inspected for any issues. If we find any problems with it, we will discuss your options, remember, your driveway is only as strong as the sub grade! Gravel will be installed if needed. It is then graded and compacted with our compaction roller then the driveway is laid out per your proposal. We will then put in 3" of new asphalt in two layers, the first layer is 1.5" base course. The second layer is also 1.5" which is the top wearing course. This is a smother surface and has smaller stone than the base course which will allow for a more attractive finish. This option will generally last twice as long as an overlay with proper maintanance and upkeep
Seal Coating and Crack Filling
Seal coating of your asphalt should be part of your routine maintenance. Not only does it beautify your asphalt, it also protects it from the elements. It will help prevent oxidation, the drying effects of the sun. It will also protect against the destructive softening effects of gasoline, oil and deicers.
The sealer will also help protect the asphalt from the accumulation of moisture in the pavement, which is the greatest cause of pavement damage. Sealing your driveway or parking lot prevents water seepage into the porous asphalt, stopping the water damage.
Sealing your driveway or parking lot will also enhance the beauty and value of your property. The deep black color is restored making your driveway look new. The sealer will generally last from 1-3 years depending on weather, location and traffic.
Crack filling should also be part of your preventative maintenance of your asphalt. We will fill the larger cracks with a hot fired rubber. The crack will be filled to help seal out moisture. The crack filling is both important and functional.
We use a commercial grade sealer that is not available in stores and is hand applied with squeegees so a much greater thickness of sealer is applied and will fill any porous areas. Asphalt is a petroleum product that we all know has tripled in cost in the last several years. For just pennies on the dollar, sealing and crack filling your driveway or parking lot will protect your investment, extend the life of your asphalt, restore that new like look at minimal cost, and will help prevent costly repairs.

Moore, "Ecotherology"
Moore looks at two aspects of Revelation he feels has been neglected by previous commentators: the animality of Christ and the huge, fairly desolate New Jerusalem. Largely basing his examination around Derrida's The Beast and the Sovereign, Moore explores the similar, yet contrasting natures of the Lamb and the Beast. Bestiality's traditional association with political despotism, on one level, explains why John personified the Roman empire as an animal-like figure. But, it also raises the question, why is the Lamb, simultaneously an animal and symbol of the divine, assigned to embody Christ? Moore draws on Derrida to conclude that Revelation presents a hybrid view of animality. The two beasts, divine and evil, behave as humans expect animals to behave- by remaining mute. However, they both carry significant metaphorical connotations (the Beast as absolute evil and the Lamb as absolute divinity), illustrating Revelation's dual view of animality.
Moore then addresses other instances of evil and divinity in Revelation that are directly related to the respective beasts. Human savagery is simultaneously present in the Beast and the personification of Babylon, who physically rides on the Beast's back. Both figures are closely connected, almost morphing into one evil being. The Lamb also corresponds with a human figure. The virtuous woman is closely related to the divine animal. However, her connection runs deeper, as she is referred to as the bride of the Lamb. Moore points out that Revelation transforms the bride into the New Jerusalem, equating the good woman with the good city and the good woman with the good people of God. However, Moore questions the "goodness" of the new city when it is described as essentially empty, with the exception of the river, the tree of life, and the Lamb. Again, he states that while eco-commentators have addressed the river and the tree in the walls of the city, they have rarely tackled the unfathomable size of the New Jerusalem. Moore admits that the sheer size is used to convey power, authority, and sovereignty, but the description presents a dystopian environment devoid of life, similar to a dead megamall. And the Lamb, as the sole living creature within the dead environment, is again part of the duality (or contradiction) of Revelation. Questioning the place of animals in the New Jerusalem, Moore metaphorically relates the unworthy humans to dogs, cast out of the city because of the dirtiness and base desires.
Moore concludes that the lone presence of the Lamb in the New Jerusalem signifies that humans now exist to serve animals, instead of the reverse that is often assumed by humans (especially those living today). Christ takes the throne in the heavenly city as an animal, the only form in which he is worshipped by humans, demonstrating that, in Revelation, the ultimate form of divinity is the animal Christ.
Moore's "Ecotherology"
Stephen Moore reads Derrida's The Beast and the Sovereign and The Animal That Therefore I am as "incisive if unintended" commentary on Revelation's animality. In "Ecotherology" Moore explores the relationship between animals in Revelation and animals in today's "apocalyptically theriocidal world (227)."
Revelation's beast is typically understood as a metaphor for imperial Rome and/or it's emperors; Derrida's finding that sovereignty is often represented through animal monstrosity (much like the beast from Revelation) supports this interpretation. The beast qualifies as a monster because it does not respect the divisions between species: it is a composite creature of leopard, lion, and bear. This monster, or beast, is an appropriate symbol for the Roman Empire (and/or its emperors) because both are outside the law. A sovereign not only makes laws but also has the power to break them—much like a wild beast that does not respect law and order. Yet, as Moore points out, Revelation's author similarly represents divine power in the guise of an animal (the Lamb). God, as divine sovereign, and Jesus as his agent, are outside the law—including their own law of "Thou shalt not kill." For those who do not number among the faithful (read: those who do not accept God's absolute sovereignty), God and the lamb are monsters who bestow upon them vengeance and destruction. In this way Revelation reinscribes imperial power while simultaneously critiquing it.
Two kinds of animals are represented in Revelation: the domestic (the lamb) and the wild (the beast). This dichotomy is reflected in the two women represented in Revelation: the bride and the whore. The whore is bloodthirsty and savage like a predatory animal, whereas the bride's virtue aligns her with the Lamb. Both the bride and the Lamb are docile, domesticated figures who simultaneously (and paradoxically) represent absolute domination; thus Revelation replicates imperial Rome's hegemonic structure at the same time it offers a nonhegemonic alternative through the interspecies intimacy of the bride and Lamb.
Personified by the bride, the new Jerusalem is a city constructed around the needs of humans and as such represents a domesticated version of nature—much like modern high-end shopping malls. The city is an "anthropocentering of nature (237)." The new city of Jerusalem is sovereign not just as the seat of a divine ruler but because of its enormous size—excess being, according to Derrida, one of the intrinsic qualities of sovereignty. Moore finds the new Jerusalem to be ill-designed as a prophetic counterexample to the anthropocentrism of empire because it exhibits eerie similarity to the megamalls of today. There does seem to be hope for the formation of a positive, constructive ecotherology in Moore's reading of Revelation; though the city is anthropocentric in design, its emblematic animal, the Lamb, defies that reading in that it holds dominion over all humans. In Revelation, Jesus is most powerful in animal form—it is the only form in which he is worshipped, and it is as a theriomorph that he is enthroned in the heavenly kingdom.
Moore's exploration of the "interspecies intimacies" raises some interesting questions. It is obvious in reading Revelation that the relationship between the beast and the whore is a satirical caricature of the imperial power of Rome. Even Moore admits that "bestiality has always been a convenient figure for political despotism" (230), so it makes sense to use these images to condemn the sovereignty of Rome. By using a wild beast, John invokes the savagery of the animal kingdom, yet cruelty is a human quality. The whore riding abreast the beast is savage and cruel, evil and lustful, and so the imagery makes sense in this context. However, what is not apparently clear is why John would then keep with the same trope to illustrate the proper sovereignty of God the Father by creating another interspecies relationship with the Lamb and the bride? The answer to this question takes us back to the Quadrapedal Christ, where the Lamb is both dominated and dominant. Indeed, More states that the Lamb is a "nonhegemonic symbol for a hegemonic entity" (234). Hegemony is the term used to describe the masculine dominance over feminine submission. By describing him in this way, Moore sees the Lamb as a domesticated animal, pure and innocent, thus the perfect sacrifice, yet at the same time He is the warrior sovereign, the dominant (masculine) bridegroom. The (feminine) bride, like the domesticated Lamb, is silent and docile, so now we can see the contrast to the beast-whore intimacy more clearly. The wild, undomesticated, fornicating beast has no place in the New Jerusalem.
I admit that Moore's articles perpetually perplex me. He is not as clear to his point as he could be and I feel like he writes in circles and meanders on tangents. I don't know how to answer the question of "ecotherology" because, honestly, I barely understood what I wrote above and I even feel that I probably was entirely off base with it.

Dragon Fire is Slow Dragon Music's brief news round-up, filled with chunks of fleshy goodness.
This last fortnight has been pretty busy, but that also means that word from all quarters has been flowing in pretty fast! Almost as much as we'd expect in twice as long! And the word is very good indeed!!!
Arizonan thrash legends Flotsam & Jetsam are back at it again, with brand new video for Demolition Man from their album, The End Of Chaos. Due out January 18th 2019 through AFM, it's already available for pre-order right here!
Run by Moonspell's Fernando Ribeiro, Alma Mater Records will be re-issuing Tiamat's 1992 classic, Clouds, on limited white, gold, and purple vinyls. They are real, beautiful fan-pieces, and superbly priced at £20/25. Pre-order at this link address.
Corpsefucking Art have a new album out! Released on the ever-brutal Comatose Music label, Splatterphobia promises "ten tracks of psychopathic old school, blood drenched death metal". Hear it/buy it from their Bandcamp site!
There's more death metal on the horizon, too, with Okkultist warming up for an early 2019 album. Looking at some of their previous video output, you can believe that the Reinventing Evil platter will do pretty much what is say on the tin.
*Buy your BOA tickets through this link to support Slow Dragon Music
If you're looking for something a bit thrashier, French outfit Evilness have launched the full new album New Perspectives, No Evolution on Bandcamp and YouTube (strangely with two slightly differing track orders).
More thrash than that? The rather nifty Dust Bolt have a new video up for Dead Inside, taken from their 4th album, Trapped In Chaos, due out in January via Napalm Records.
Also clawing its way into daylight at the start of 2019 is the self-released debut EP from Master's Call. The three tracks comprising Morbid Black Trinity follow in the wake of current black metal leaders such as Watain and MGLA, with despairing, emotional darkness. Keep watch!
More fresh video, but in more epically deranged form, comes from Rivers Of Nihil. Live footage for The Silent Life was recorded at the closing home-town show of their recent headline tour. They set of again this week with Revocation in Europe.

An Insight from The Edinburgh Tourist Blog
We recently invited Amy Spark from the prominent travel blog 'Edinburgh Tourist' to join us on our Double Underground Ghost Tour!
Our double underground tour takes visitors into two underground locations in Edinburgh and allows everyone to experience a darker, less visited side of the city.
"The two sets of vaults we visited were very dark and damp. The floors were uneven and it was a bit smelly too. Very atmospheric and perfect for ghost stories.â€

Winter was especially cold, marked by hard frosts that interfered with Pinot growth throughout the season. Freezing temperatures destroyed some of the vines and buds, leading to very uneven physiological development that had repercussions on flowering, yields and final maturity.
As a result, budburst occurred in the period 19-22 April, a good week later than the average for the past 10 growing seasons (11-16 April) but still fairly standard compared to the past 30 years in Champagne, which is after all the most northerly vineyard in France.
Spring and early summer was generally cool and dry, favouring excellent work in the vineyards with little incidence of disease except for oïdium in some of the Chardonnay plantings.
The vines flowered in the period 16-19 June, barely a week later than the average for the past ten years (11-13 June), though this year's floraison was especially hard to define due to the wide variations between sectors and even within individual plots. Uneven cluster development -large, shouldered bunches growing alongside much smaller ones- was probably a delayed symptom of winter frost damage.
By mid July the vines were showing signs of water stress, but any worries about an impending drought were washed away in August (14-16), when three months' worth of summer rain fell in just three days. The long-awaited rains were enough to kick-start the ripening process -with disastrous results in some places where Pinot vines in clay-limestone terroirs absorbed so much water that the berries swelled to bursting. What was an extremely rare event for Champagne led to crop losses and early outbreaks of botrytis.
Ripeness and harvests 2010
The rate of ripening this year was as spectacular as in 2009 (a year that remains a benchmark for Champagne), despite frequent outbreaks of rain in late August/early September, with mild, wet, Atlantic conditions that should have slowed down ripening and saw botrytis run rampant among the Pinot plantings. More than ever this vintage, it was a race against time to bring in the grapes at peak ripeness before they spoiled on the vine.
Two weeks of harvesting, two very different sets of conditions.
Week One: all hands on deck!
Braced for catastrophe, pickers set to work on 13/9 in Aÿ, 14/9 in Avize and 15/9 in Verzenay. This was one of those very rare years when all three sectors were ripe for harvesting at the same time - speed was of the essence.
It was soon evident that everything would depend on serious sorting: eliminating any spoiled or poor-quality berries and retaining only the finest fruit. This meant hiring a lot more pickers and tracking their every move to make sure they dealt with every plot at the perfect moment. On average, more than 30% of Pinots berries were eliminated at the sorting stage - an unusually high proportion, but this was the price we had to pay for quality grapes.
Week Two: all smiles again as Champagne goes Continental
Halfway through harvesting, it was 'all change'. Northern weather brought sunny days and cold nights, with nocturnal temperatures of 2-5°C that acted like a natural refrigerator. In other words, textbook continental conditions: cold enough by night to prevent the grapes from spoiling, hot enough by day to promote ideal ripening. These new conditions were particularly welcome in the coldest areas where ripening is always a problem. Fruit from these plots reached the presses in good health, at levels of ripeness rarely achieved before.
The grapes being particularly fragile this year, rapid pressing was essential, with every batch of grapes kept separate. We also had to analyse a wider range of factors, to confirm the efficiency of sorting and adjust the rules as harvesting progressed.
In the end, the Chardonnay came out on top, with 11.2% natural alcohol and acidity of 7.2 g/l, followed closely by the Pinots with 10.9 % alcohol and 8.1g/l acidity - great balance and a testament to perfect ripening. Yields were good for the Chardonnay but at a record low for the Pinots due to intensive sorting.

Even if people tend to ignore its importance, it serves a significant purpose that cannot be overlooked. It plays an important role especially in the proper disposal of human waste. It prevents contamination and instead, improves sanitation. Even though you haven't noticed it, a lot of your time is spent on the toilet. This is reason enough to be wise in selecting toilets for your home. Currently, there is a wide selection of toilets to choose from. The options usually vary in terms of color, height, price and flushing capabilities. Normally, your choice will depend on the type of toilet that your home can support based on local building codes. But usually, people commonly pick toilets based on their size, price and features. Although toilet designs tend to vary, the technical aspects of a toilet will matter more. For instance, if you do not want to encounter any trouble with your new toilet, you will want to consider how much water it uses, as well as, how well it flushes. Factors such as color and cost is the least of your concerns. It would seem that buying a toilet is a simple challenge, but it isn't. You may not realize it but you tend to use the toilet up to six times daily. With this thought in mind, you would certainly want a toilet that matches your needs and preference. You must understand that in order to make the right choice of toilet to purchase, you need to conduct your own research. You can even visit a number of shops near you so as to view the numerous options they have available for you. If you are shopping online, you can also check out the items sold by reputable online retailers. As you make a choice, it may not be wise to focus on custom features. Although these makes it a cool option, it may be hard to get a replacement for them, when the time comes. Make sure that when you check out your options, you also compare and contrast them.
The Essentials of Toilets – Breaking Down the Basics
For those who do not have any idea on what types of toilet they should get for their home, asking a plumber or a contractor for a recommendation, may be a good decision. They usually have sufficient knowledge when it comes to noting differences of toilets. If you have a lot of time to spare, you can check out a number of toilet reviews online. It is through these reviews that you can determine which brands or models surpass the rest. Toilet reviews are beneficial especially if it came from someone credible. Even after choosing a toilet and having it installed, you still need to monitor its performance. Do not forget that maintenance is necessary if you want to get the right value of your money.What Do You Know About Toilets

Close to Agaete you will find the
beautiful and vigorous valley Los Berrzales, sure to be the
most vigorous place on all of the Island. Almost all the different
plants of the Island are represented. The beautiful nature and the
idyllic peace makes this trip very favourable.
Barranco de Guayedra
also called the Whitewashed city, is situated in the midst of one of the
most vigorous areas of the Island with coco palms, sugar canes,
coffee trees and many kinds of fruit trees, among them
avocados, oranges, mango and papaya.
Puerto de La Nieves is a typically Spanish fishing village, full of
picturesque charm. It's become very popular with the tourists since the
opening of the ferry line to Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
Over the years, the fishing
industry has declined and tourism has taken its place. The authorities have
made considerable investments into this industry over the past few years.
They've built a beautiful new promenade
with excellent seafood restaurants, galleries, and craft shops. There's also
a new hotel near the Guanche cemetery and some apartments blocks behind the
harbour that all blend in very well to the surroundings.
There's a tiny church in the port called the Ermita de la Nieves. It houses
a beautiful 16th century painting depicting the virgin and child. It was
created by Flemish artist Joost Van Cleve. This is one of the town's best
treasures and is well worth checking out.
Head to the south of the village and you'll come to the fascinating "Dedos
de Dios" which literally means God's Finger. It's truly stunning - a massive
30-metre pinnacle of basalt rock that sticks out dramatically from the
strange but impressive rock formations behind.
Sometimes, under certain light conditions, the solitary rock gives off a
surreal, otherworldly appearance - quite spectacular and an excellent photo
Here is space to much more, so
please help webmaster - bring stories from the different places,
trip suggestions, travel

Don't be afraid to lose. It is pure to want to play towards opponents who're at or under your talent stage. In any case, it is no enjoyable to all the time lose! There may be, nevertheless, a big disadvantage to this strategy – there is not a incentive to get better. If you find yourself enjoying in opposition to people who find themselves greater than you, you may be taught out of your errors and be on their stage very quickly.
To be able to protect your gaming beneath administration, try to plan out gaming classes with definitive limits. Whether or not or not you plan to play for a fixed time frame or until you attain a sure purpose, have a clear stopping level in ideas before you select up that controller. Even the right recreation is not any good if you happen to play it obsessively.
When you buy used video video games, always verify the disc sooner than they promote it to you. Getting house to hunt out out that the sport is scratched and wouldn't work is a ache. You may waste time and fuel going back to the shop. Plus, you would only be able to get retailer credit score again and this could presumably be the only copy that they had. Ensure you're getting an excellent copy.
You probably have a toddler who plays video video video games, part of your accountability as a father or mom is to make sure that they train moderation in their gaming. Though there may be software program program obtainable that may allow you to monitor or even restrict how quite a bit time your children spend having fun with video games, it is higher to make them understand the hazards of spending too lengthy in front of a display for their own sake.
In case you're buying a game for a kid and do not know what kind of game to decide on, use the ESRB ranking on the case as a information. The rating system is just not good. It does offer you a good suggestion concerning the content material of a sport. Even so, so you might guarantee the sport is age-relevant.
Observe security precautions when enjoying motion video games. With the surging recognition of motion-based games, there has also been an increase in incidents of property injury and damage related to them. Guarantee you have plenty of room, and do not stand too close to completely different players to stay away from hitting them. If important, switch furniture to create extra enjoying space.
There are a lot of various kinds of video video video games to play. They've been a pastime for a lot of generations now. From the earlier recreation packages to the additional trendy ones, video games have now change right into a recreation that retains drawing individuals. The pattern is simply going to proceed and enhance as they get further complicated.

On Sunday, some San Diego motorists may notice smoke from Marine Corps Air Station Miramar due to a controlled burn, according to officials.
The exercise is for military firefighters who will take part in routine controlled burns to clear brush on the base, officials said.
The training fires are scheduled to start about 9 a.m. Sunday and continue for roughly three hours, according to the base public affairs office.
The operation is not expected to cause any visibility problems for motorists on nearby Interstate 15, state Route 163 and surrounding city streets, officials said.

Globaleaks: prototype and demo for all
My last post about GlobaLeaks was more or less an introduction to what it is and it's not.
As we know in the open-source world "Code Talks". So with this in mind, the weekend following my last post we had our first hackfest/sprint near Florence. I was sponsored to go and meet some of the key figures behind the project.
When I joined the team it was mostly to work on the python logic and datamodel as well as help on the development of a community of contributors. So we started getting some "cleaner" code (still dirty) done and defining the specs all over to develop a general consensus around technical and conceptual issues at hand.
I managed to convince the guys to host the code on launchpad for reasons I will get to in another post. But gernally it was the best option to actually get code/bugs/blueprints more in sync. (https://launchpad.net/globaleaks)
The sprint helped us kickstart and develop a momentum that we have been maintaining ever since. After the hackfest the spectacular random globaleaks designers donated their time to set up a website presence and some bling bling...
Some of us were present at the ESC 2011 and presented GlobaLeaks. GlobaLeaks live launch - Venice 2011
We will follow a very agile/organic development and it is pretty hecktick until we get things shaped enough so the core hackers are satisfied. The code is easy to jump into since its python and web2py. The code is now available and is by no means out for use in production.
It is merely a concept and we want YOU to help us make it better. We don't believe in developing such a project behind closed doors. But rather we would have hackers, journalists and others help us make it better.
We plan to have a mini sprint again the weekend from 16-18 of September in Milan. You can join or donate something to help us all meet again.
You will be able to follow the development happening in the community now on our planet (http://planet.globaleaks.org/)
On a personal note the following are fun facts from the hackfest.
- I am 2 kg heavier (too much pasta and good food)
- Arturo infected me with the terrible "Enter the Ninja - Die Antwoord" song
- I decided to learn italian
- Loving the team

In The Beginning
There was the beginning. Which, rather unsurprisingly, involved a lot of talking. Even for art Directors.
It all started with an idea and a few friends who want to take that idea and make something great out of it. Heaps of messages and calls and conversations later, not to mention the odd internet meme here and there, that original idea has become more concrete. It is quite a laborious period with lots of questions about goals, aims of the project, target audience and future developments. As soon as that is done the real work began for me.
Choosing A Style
As an art director you have the responsibility for setting the tone of the whole project, which considering how much RPG fans love their art, was quite a scary prospect. Choosing a style for anything is not easy. There are so many different ways you can go. A lot of art being produced nowadays is purely digital, although there are some who still exclusively use traditional media to create great images. Some artist and illustrators like to mix it up! I belong to the last group. I have always been drawn to drawing, pun intended. I love the character and feeling a drawing can give you, lots of shapes and dynamics through gesture. Combine all that with the very fine layering and colouring possible with applications like Adobe Photoshop and you have lots and lots of possibilities to work with. I think the results speak for themselves and I am very pleased with how things are shaping. Am I satisfied? Absolutely not, but then that is a good thing, right?

text: "Conch Shell Pastel" by Ria Hills'The Conch Shell' by Sally Sandler The Society June 10, 2019 Beauty, Culture, Poetry 10 Comments Its coarse name belies this silken treasure, with iridescent dome and spiral apse. Imagination slips in with pleasure, to contemplate an opus like blown glass. Perhaps a queen lived here (no plain pauper,) within these walls of vaulted pedigree, with sheets of silk moiré, pearl-lined coffer, and deep in strains of Handel's symphony. But if a pauper, she was quite clever— as well, a soul of generosity— to create such beauty, and forever bequeath to us the mystery of the sea. But does it work? Ask children passing near.

Reply Peter Hartley June 10, 2019 Very evocative and the poem has good imagery. But Handel didn't compose any symphonies as we ordinarily understand the word, did he? He was a bit too early. The so-called "Father of the Symphony" was Haydn, so perhaps you could alter Handel to Haydn? Reply Evan Mantyk June 10, 2019 Mr. Hartley, I think she is probably thinking of Handel's Water Music due to the conch shell theme. Reply Peter Hartley June 10, 2019 Mr Mantyk – And conch shells are indeed found in the Thames upon which the Water Music was first performed! The so-called Water Music, though, as you will know, is an instrumental suite. But it would be a pity to let this get in the way of a good poem. Sultana Raza June 10, 2019 Lovely and evocative imagery. Loved the clever use of words, married to this concept of timelessness. Reply C.B. Anderson June 10, 2019 Conch shells in England?! I thought they were tropical. Perhaps they are being conflated here with whelks, which would be a natural mistake. And indeed, though technically uneven (unless one regards it as purely syllabic verse) the poem is very nice indeed. Reply Peter Hartley June 10, 2019 CBA – Not native to UK, as you say, but found by mudlarks on the Thames, in ballast possibly dumped by ships from the Bahamas. Reply James A. Tweedie June 11, 2019 Sally, I like your poem very much. I felt as if I was sharing in your innermost musings and found them quite entertaining. I had never thought of the word "conch" as being coarse, but, of course (pun intended) it is indeed a ironically harsh word for what is often a delicate shell. Peter, I like what you said re Handel and the word symphony, but the word also has a natural, non-technical meaning which, for me at least, worked quite well. A synonymous word, "euphony," was used by Amy Foreman not too long ago, a word that would also fit in well here. Conch shells in the Thames? I love it when I learn something new in the comments! Reply Peter Hartley June 11, 2019 James, I do know that rarer meaning of "symphony" from the Greek for "together sound", but it just didn't occur to me that it would be used in that sense. As soon as I think "Handel" I think sacred oratorio, Semele (a hybrid) and more Italian operas than you could shake a stick at (nearly forty boxed sets of which, on vinyl, I still have languishing in our box-room). But of course you are right, and either by accident or design the "Handel Symphony" is born. I certainly give it more credence than John Cage's concerto for bugle and glockenspiel. PS have a great time in the Hebrid Isles! Reply James A. Tweedie June 11, 2019 Peter , At the moment I am in Dingle, Ireland. On my way from one heaven to another . . .

Strangely beautiful – the ultimate distraction!
So what do you do when you're loved one goes away? In my case I clean the house from top to toe in an effort to keep busy.
Yes, I know coming from the ultimate independent woman. I too can be touched by loneliness. Thank goodness I had the bassets to keep me company. And plenty of cleaning to do too. The chicken house had extra spit and polish on this occasion. …
Where going?
We don't favourites in our house when it comes to bassets. Oh alright we do. We have a favourite big basset and a favourite little basset and that about covers off all the favourite types of bassets there can be.
Each has their own big or little personality. Fortnum has the greatest ability to get his face to tell a tale and Mason is the greatest house terrorist sniffing out anything there is to be claimed as his own….
What do you screech your brakes for?
Today I screeched my brakes bringing the traffic to a halt. All this in honour of a family of ducks. The cutest, fluffiest, most chaotic family of ducks.
I can tell I wasn't popular with the drivers in the vehicles behind me. Screeching to a halt, hazard lights on. Probably from their point of view for no reason at all….
Too cute for words eh?
I've had a busy executive day today and failed to take my camera with me so for the first time in a long time I'm out of photo blogging material. Sharp intake of breath – I know!
I wished I'd had my camera as there were so many things I could have shared with you today about my exploits in Wellington. Here's 5 of the potential sights you could have seen, if only…… …
Everyone is arriving!
I thought this picture summed up well how things are around here right now. Wet, muddy and ducks have arrived. Yes, it's raining again. Really raining.
Some parts of New Zealand have had 3 months rain in two days. That's pretty wet in anyone's book….
Storm recovery continues
Here's a view I see daily on my commuter run. It's the view from the Maymourn station. You get some amazing mists across the valley but the purpose of this picture is to show you more of the storm damage.
Now look close. On the top of the hill, a pink haze half way along. See it. Good. …
So, what do you recommend for me?
Our water table flowed over again today. Yes, frankly a miserable cloudy rainy day. I have however come to accept that there is no point pining for a long walk with the dogs in the spring or for the gorse to have dried out sufficiently to burn. Nor that it's always better outside.
You just have to get on with it indoors. So, time to finish that book, bake that cake for office morning tea tomorrow and to start the spring clean of the wardrobes in the hope for a new Spring/Summer collection….
The five ring circus at it's best!
I was contemplating a post about the Olympics which has been capturing our attention for the last two weeks. Forming thoughts about the medal winners, the ceremonies, the spectacles, the glories.
Every time I think of the Olympics, I also recall the nightmare of my assignment in my degree on the "Five Ring Circus" politics and sociology of the Olympic games. What, you might think! …
A bitter sweet tale to end the week
We get very few visitors. It's not that we don't have friends on neighbours to call it's just so darn far for most people to come and for our neighbours they are engrossed in their own piece of paradise to be bothered with us.
Imagine the excitement when someone who I don't know came visiting. Turns out it was Rose who lives behind our neighbours Jim and Kathleen. She was looking for her missing cat. A sad tale – gone missing for 6 days now. Not hopeful for a return but I scoured the barn for him….

Mehrfard, Hossein (2010) Extending extreme programming to support life sciences regulations. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
Text (application/pdf)4MB
MR67210.pdf - Accepted Version
The difficulty of complying with different regulations is becoming more evident as larger numbers of regulated businesses are mandated to follow a set of different regulations in their prescribed boundaries. This wide spectrum of regulations is inevitable as the result of today's heavily regulated society. In this thesis, we focus on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations and their impact on software development. FDA mandates stringent requirements on the process by which software systems for medical devices are developed. Many of these requirements involve documenting various activities in the software process, something that agile processes such as the Extreme Programming (XP) process do not support. In this thesis, we discuss FDA requirements in detail and relate these requirements to software engineering practices. We then show areas where XP fails to meet these requirements. We propose an extension to XP that complies with FDA. The extended process is implemented using the Eclipse Process Framework (EPF). A questionnaire-based evaluation technique is used to validate the extended XP.

Get a Bang Out of Reading
Most years the Kentucky Derby Festival (in my hometown) is launched with the big bang of Thunder Over Louisville, a pyrotechnic display of sky-filling beauty. Most years it's the largest fireworks display in North America. The event draws about 800,000 people to the banks of the Ohio River for 30 mesmerizing minutes of explosive creativity.
Being a fan of such things, I have attended probably 85 percent of these annual extravaganzas. One year I arrived during a five-hour parade of military aircraft, stunt and formation planes, parachutists and thunderous noise. Some dear friends of mine were waiting for me along the parade route, and via cell phone, they talked me into finding them at their perfect viewing location.
Between watching the final aerial stunts, I noted a man reading a book. He had his camera all set up, and was seated in a folding chair holding a book in which the lines of print went from top to bottom, which I quickly deduced meant he was reading a Japanese book. Then I noticed he was at the end of his book and clearly so engrossed by it that he was missing a rather impressive smoke and spark streaming loop de loop high above us.
I reflected at that moment upon what kind of a person interrupts a reader trying to finish the very last page of a captivating book.
And I wondered what kind of a person brings a book to the largest fireworks display on our continent—which, to say the least, is a very non-readerly event.
A true Reader.
I asked if I might take the photo you see here and he agreed, as he experienced the last page of his book.
From this encounter, I made several observations.
- People who are READERS will read their current books just about any place when given even a tiny slice of time to do it. I always have a book with me (actually several dozen if you count the e-books I have on my cell phone) and had I been alone, I no doubt would have been reading one of them.
- Readers are never bored or impatient in a waiting room (or at an air show). Within a matter of seconds we are no longer waiting for an appointment or at an air show, but are magically transported through print to another place and time, with a different focus and frame of reference.
- With the near ubiquity of cell phones in evidence everywhere these days, along with the overlay of thousands of Wi-Fi connections, nearly EVERYBODY (in North America at least) has a pile of books for children and older readers with them ALL the time.
If as a country we actually used such ever-present resources, we might at long last experience the very biggest bang of all—Becoming a Nation of Readers*.

How to Wear Different Types of Jeans
There are certain clothing items that due to their perfection and style have proved their timeless effect despite any fashion trends, and jeans can be considered as making part of this special category. They are one of the safest investments one can make, as they come in different shapes and styles for every body shape, they are comfortable, and can be worn to any occasion if properly accessorized. Jeans proved their versatility throughout time passing from a casual, everyday clothing item to one that can be worn to even more elegant outfits and special events matching them with feminine tops, blazers or smoking jackets, and super feminine stilettos.
Even if they are trendy and versatile, you still need to know how to choose the right jeans for your body type in order to hide flaws and emphasize qualities. Therefore, if you have large hips, it is advisable to choose flared high-waisted jeans to balance your figure. For petite, thin figures, skinny jeans are the best choice.
Yet if you are rather curvy, straight-cut jeans work well. If you have a bit of belly, go for high-waisted jeans, and wear them with a wide belt in order to camouflage your flaws. For those of you with large buttocks, a loose pair of jeans will make you look amazing.
Straight leg jeans
This is the classic type of jeans, which represents a smart and safe investment as they are elegant and comfortable, and very versatile, ideal for every moment of the day. They work perfect for every woman. As jeans are not enough in order to create a special outfit, you need to figure out different possibilities to match them. Straight leg jeans make you feel great especially worn with a pair of high heels and a feminine blouse or a t-shirt with stripes.
Skinny jeans
Even though they became one of the most popular fashion trend, you should know that skinny jeans are not for everybody, and they are more appropriate for tall, thin girls. However, if they are properly paired, you can wear them even if you have larger buttocks or bigger hips. They are perfect if you want to look taller especially if you match them with stilettos or peep toe shoes. Yet, the most common way of wearing skinny jeans remains tucking them into high boots.
Boyfriend jeans
Boyfriend jeans have a more masculine cut and flatter almost any body shape. However, petite figures should stay away from them as they might make them look shorter. The ideal combination would be boyfriend jeans, feminine blouses and high-heeled shoes.

This time of year isn't very festive for college football coaches whose teams have had a bad season and who are now out of work. There are so many fired coaches that some sports websites keep track of who's out and who's in. There's similar attention when leaders at the highest levels of corporate success are forced out or fired.
We've all been there. The critical question is: How do you turn a big setback into an awesome comeback?
I'm a big believer in looking forward, not back. Over and over, I have seen great performers and achievers encounter rejection with centeredness and grace. To them, rejection is like an unwelcome guest who came through the door just ahead of a beloved friend.
These achievers look past the present hurt and disappointment to anticipate what I call the Hidden Gifts of Rejection.
1. The Hidden Gift of Resilience. Resilience is the ability to bounce back from rejection. How can we recover faster from "no" so we can go get the "yes"? I learned this lesson when trying to publish my first book, The 5 Best Tools to Find Your Dream Career. After countless rejection letters, a door finally cracked open with Jist Publishing. A chance to present my book to their executive team, to sell it. I flung opened that cracked door and flew out to meet their team. We struck a deal and my first book became a reality. Viewing no as feedback rather than the end is the key.
2. The Hidden Gift of Growth. Working through fear and rejection can unlock great energy, and this is the basis for a . Even when you experience rejection, a growth mindset focuses on your innate potential for maximum performance. Success depends on how hard you are willing to work consistently and adapting to performance feedback. A fixed mindset looks back, rejecting the dynamic potential of hard work and holding on to rejection. A hidden gift of rejection may be to get rid of the thinking that holds you back. My friend Jim Loehr teaches it this way: identify your old story holding you back and replace it with your new story—one which includes a formula for being your best self.
3. The Hidden Gift of Insight. Some coaches who get fired move into broadcasting, and the booth gives them a completely different view of their sport, literally. This new position gives them the chance to gain new insight on the media and share their coaching insight with a broad audience. It keeps them in front of their peers, which can lead to them rejoining the coaching ranks—and they have gained new insight on their sport. Rejection offers a path to valuable insight that often can only be gained this way.
4. The Hidden Gift of Perspective. Rejection presents us with many choices. There's no one way to deal with it. You gain perspective when you see more choices, when you step way back and see the big picture. One option that's hard, but it's still an option, is to not take it personally. Results are separate from who we are. This distance is so important. The more that we make it about us, the more emotional we are likely to get and the less likely we are to move past rejection into our best selves.
5. The Hidden Gift of Opportunity. Home Depot co-founder and Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank is an example of finding the opportunity inside of rejection. In 1978, Blank and then CEO Bernie Marcus were fired from the home improvement company Handy Dan during an internal power struggle. How did they respond? Together, the two co-founded that little company we know as Home Depot. Looking for other famous examples to inspire you? Michael Jordan didn't make the varsity basketball team. Oprah was fired from her TV anchor job. Steve Jobs was fired from Apple. The trick is to see the opportunity inside of rejection.
Your Game Changer Takeaway
The next time you face rejection—and if we living fulling it's going to happen—remember the Hidden Gifts of Rejection. Look for the opportunities waiting as you get past the initial pain. Use this adversity to reconnect to your mission in life build resilience, insight and perspective, and make this setback into your next remarkable comeback.

Bodybuilders in specific and health enthusiasts, in general, depend on steroids to reduce their body fat and increase their muscle mass. However, what is the need for such drugs that stimulate testosterone, when the body produces this hormone aplenty? The reality is that the production of testosterone, which helps to increase the rate of metabolism of the body, decreases with age. For the uninitiated, an increased metabolism rate helps burn fat faster with a minimum of effort. When its production decreases, we have to put additional effort to melt out body fat and gain lean muscles. The only option to get around this problem is to take synthetic chemical compounds that stimulate testosterone. Anabolic steroids are one of the most popular and most effective of such compounds. On the one hand, the high prices of anabolic steroids manufactured by reputable organizations poses problems for those who plan to use such drugs for the first time.
Confusion reigns
On the other hand, people are wary of opting for cheap steroids for they believe that they might be harmful to their health. On the other hand, they cannot afford to buy reputable brands of the synthetic version of steroids because of their exorbitant prices. However, this is not always the truth. While there is no doubt that countless online stores sell fake drugs, others sell genuine versions at discounted rates. How is this possible? The production costs of steroids in America are considerably higher than that in several other countries (we are not talking about third world countries). You will be surprised to know that you can purchase cheap steroids from these stores at less than 33% of the prices quoted by American online shops. The icing on the cake is that most such stores offer free shipping if your order value exceeds 200 Euros. Do not worry about quality as they offer popular brand names like Anavar, Anadrol, Trenbolone, Deca Durabolin, and much more. The products offered by them are pharma grade, so you can rest assured that they will have no side effects on your body as long as you stick to the recommended dosage mentioned in the leaflet accompanying the container. Recognizing such sites is extremely simple. They offer a money back guarantee and have blog posts on their site, which they update on a regular basis. Some of them also offer samples that you can try before purchasing in large quantities. Search online for such stores and source your requirements of cheap steroids from them.

Memorial Day weekend is a time set aside to remember and honor those who gave their lives in the service of our country. Originally, it was called Decoration Day and had its origins during the Civil War era. In my husband's hometown of South Bend, Indiana it still is called Decoration Day by many people and also is a time when people visit cemeteries where family members are buried, clean up around the grave sites, and leave flowers or other mementos to decorate the graves.
Although we moved away from South Bend many years ago, we were back this year for a visit during Memorial Day weekend , and we honored the tradition of decorating family members' graves. Our daughter, son-in-law and grandson were with us, and we all trooped through three cemeteries, each progressively older than the previous one, to find family grave sites.
Finding my husband's parents' graves at the St. Joseph Valley Memorial Park in Granger, IN was relatively easy, as we had been there many times before.
Three-year-old grandson B. helped prepare the site for the urn that would hold the flowers.
B. and his mom then placed flowers in the urn to honor her grandparents (his great-grandparents).
Our second cemetery visit was to the Bowman Cemetery in South Bend.
My husband's grandparents on his father's side are buried here, but hubby could not remember where in the 6-acre site the graves were to be found. We decided to "divide and conquer," as surely one of us would find the graves. Hubby himself was successful.
The final visit proved to be the most difficult. The South Bend City Cemetery was established in 1832, just west of the downtown area in what was once a very nice neighborhood. The street leading to the main entrance is today a small side street, hard to find and difficult to maneuver in a vehicle. Our rented SUV barely made it into the cemetery, and the area between graves, where cars are meant to drive, clearly was not made for large vehicles. Over 50 years had passed since my husband had visited this cemetery, and he had only a vague memory of the location of the graves we were seeking. We gave up once, piled back into the car and left, only to return at our son-in-law's insistence. Driving around the outer perimeter of the cemetery until my husband recognized a small walk-through gate, we re-entered and found the graves of hubby's grandfather (with whom he had been very close while growing up,) his great-grandparents, and other family members, all of whom had immigrated to America from Germany in the late 1800s.
Keeping memories alive… Connecting one generation with those who came before… I am so glad for the opportunity to do this on Decoration Day. How do you honor those who came before?

Most popular software casino and casino games
In general, we can say that Endemol is an experienced player that is ready to compete with leading manufacturers. The Endemol provider was officially founded in 1995, so it uses different themes from the 80's and 90's shows. Moreover, the company not only develops original online models, but it is also considered a television giant with a large audience. The headquarters of Endemol is located in the capital of the Netherlands. Endemol also broadcasts feature films and theater productions. Many other slot manufacturers use comedy shows as themes for online games. Perhaps Endemol follows their examples.
Now Endemol Corporation directs its activities to the development of unique casino products. Online slots only from this developer offer to arbitrarily change usual characters into jokers. This feature is observed in the "UFC" online slot machine, where after downloading the slot, the user can choose any wild. An online model called "Hulkmania" is dedicated to martial arts that are very popular in Mexico and the USA. After launching the casino game, the user will see the great Hulk Hogan. Here the key feature is the bonus round that is a wrestling round.
However, we can notice innovations in every online slot machine from this brand. Unusual themes are the main feature of Endemol gaming machines, which essentially distinguishes them from the slots of other developers. Absolutely all online slots of Endemol are based on TV franchises. By the way, customers can also choose other interesting online emulators, such as Austin Powers, Oliver Twist, The Million Pound Drop, Deal or No Deal and Catchphrase. A complete list of all available slots is available on the official website of Endemol Company.
Endemol game models are top-rated, so you can easily find them in one of the online casinos that work with Endemol (Bet365, Paddy Power Games Casino, BGO, Grosvenor Casino). All of the above-mentioned online casinos offer to enjoy the game process in a test mode. This means that participants do not need to risk real money in the casino because virtual loans will be used. Besides, this is a great opportunity to improve your playing skills and develop a strategy that will bring you closer to the main prize.
Info about mobile software casino
At the moment, the official website of Endemol Company does not tell us anything about gaming models for mobile devices. Thus, we cannot please fans of mobile versions of casino slot machines. But it's worth noting that this is a great opportunity to attract new users, as such gadgets are trendy today.
As a rule, such versions of gaming machines allow you to play anywhere with the connection to the Internet. We assume that experts from Endemol will pay attention to this aspect and may release several such models in 2018.
What makes this software (provider) special
In general, we can say that Endemol is an experienced player that is ready to compete with leading manufacturers. The Endemol provider was officially founded in 1995, so it uses different themes from the 80's and 90's shows. Moreover, the company not only develops original online models, but it is also considered a television giant with a broad audience.
It is rather difficult to single out the most popular or best slots from the developer since they all have high quality and are endowed with an equal number of functional features and prizes. You can only make a choice, basing on your preferences. For example, the "3-2-1" game was trendy in the 80's. Now it's hard to believe that players can take part in the drawing of the main prize, which was based on some evidence. The essence of the show was the basis for the concept of the bonus round of this game. In general, these slots are ideal for fans of popular TV shows.
Endemol also gained wide recognition through a partnership with many well-known online game content producers. Also, the Endemol manufacturer pays a lot of time to popularize its online products, for which it regularly participates in numerous exhibitions attracting the audience of customers.
Most modern players require a reliable level of protection from the provider. Endemol Games has done an excellent job because it offers a secure online security system. The organization also applies a high level of data encryption. But if something happens, then the participant needs to contact online support service that is available at any time.
Info about software casino bonuses
We have already talked about casino slots of Endemol Company that offers unique bonus systems and options. It is also worth noting that online casinos that represent the models of Endemol Games Company are special too. These online sites offer various deposits and other bonuses to every visitor who likes to play online in a casino.
Conclusion and Verdict about software casino
The successful Endemol Corporation offers original online games executed in a retro style. These are interesting and unusual models that pleasantly surprise with additional functions and thematic mini-games. Let's remind that the company devotes its online models to well-known TV shows.
