Does Tony Kushner know something the rest of us don't? Six years ago, he began writing a play about a remote Central Asian nation; by the time Homebody/Kabul opened in December 2001, the United States was fighting a war there. Now, amid the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, his 2003 musical Caroline, or Change seems even more eerily prescient. There ain't no under ground in Louisiana, run its newly harrowing opening lines. There is only under water.
Caroline came out of a very powerful sense of home, says Kushner, reached last week in Budapest, where Steven Spielberg is filming his screenplay for Munich, about the 1972 Olympics terrorists. He drew the musical's story, about a poor black woman who works for a Jewish family in Louisiana, from his boyhood in Lake Charles. Spared the destruction of Hurricane Katrina, the city has become a refuge for streams of evacuees from New Orleans, 200 miles to the east. According to Kushner, Caroline, who spends her days in the laundry roomsixteen feet below sea level / caught 'tween the devil and the muddy brown seawould not be among them. The people in Caroline's economic position are exactly the sort of people who couldn't get out.
Kushner was in Provincetown when Katrina landed, and he spent a tense week tracking down friends and family. Two elderly cousins went missing for six days. They made it through okay, drinking vodka and smoking cigarettes. Relief gave way to horror as the Hobbesian nightmare of New Orleans began to unfold. It's the America the Republican Party has been working hard to establish over the last 30 years: no infrastructure, no social safety net, everybody carrying a gun, he says.
But I'm also angry at my home state. People from Louisiana have always knownit's the dirty secret of the Souththat there's horrific poverty there that doesn't look like poverty anywhere else in the U.S. The hurricane lifted the rock off that little secret. The South for 30 years has been voting to protect the rights of the unborn rather than voting to build levees.
Despite its concerns with race and class, and its terrifyingly timely water imagery, Caroline didn't exactly come to mind as Kushner watched the scenes of chaos. But some friends called to point out the show's relevance; others told him they'd found solace in listening to the album of his words and Jeanine Tesori's score. Out of those conversations has grown a tentative plan to reunite the show's original Broadway cast for a benefit concert next month. Obviously it has resonances with the whole horrible situation, he says.
Those resonances may not have been planned, but they're not pure coincidence, either. When you write such perceptive and public-minded plays, events are bound to magnify them. However, this pattern does raise one awkward question: Who's next? Kushner says his next original play, The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide to Capitalism and Socialism, With a Key to the Scriptures, will be set in Brooklyn. But fear not, he adds: Nothing bad happens there.

To the Editor:
As a composer of classical music, I applaud Anthony Tommasini's exhorting the performance community to develop close working relationships with composers and to commit to playing more new music. It is true, as he says, that star performers could make composers' reputations simply by programming their work.
But there is something else that would help even more: more attention by critics. The establishment media cover only a minute fraction of the new classical music presented, favoring instead the same mainstream stars, fashionable issues and stock repertory that Mr. Tommasini chides the presenting musical establishment for doing.

The Age of Confusion
If I had one wish for Christmas, or even for next year, I'd like to knock all those brands off their faux social mission bandwagons and take an axe to that plinky piano whose music always features behind such creations.
OK, maybe I'm being unseasonably miserable, and maybe the ad for Olay has a fantastic insight that will have women round the world cheering, but I find it patronising. There's the ad itself. Do people really take comments such as 'you're beautiful' and 'you've got a lovely smile' and 'I love your hair' from a random film-maker that they don't know as 'true compliments'? Oh, and incidentally, what if the film-maker had been male? Where would we have been then?
And I have never, ever heard anyone say someone has 'a lovely smile for their age.' Then the rallying call 'It's time we stop defining women by their age.' I wondered who 'we' means in this context. Who is the finger being pointed at? I can only come to the conclusion that it must be Olay pointing the finger at themselves. I wonder if they'll put their words into action?
As (Oil of) Olay, Ulay, Olaz, Ulan and maybe some other permutations and combinations, this brand has invested years in the idea of younger-looking skin.
Today, the product line-up includes products 'For fighting the 7 signs of ageing' while there are anti-wrinkle products classified into age groups 25+, 40+ and 55+. By the way, whether you're 55 or 95, you come into the 'deep wrinkles' category. Sorry.
And of course, the makers of Olay send you a wonderful magazine once you get over the age of 50, together with an incontinence pad sample. You see, they are allowed to segment and judge according to your age, but for the general public, it's a no-no.
I think Olay - or at least the people running the brand - need to work out what they stand for, and what they are offering. At the moment, the messages are mixed and contradictory. It would be a brave move, for example, to accept that many women do want to look younger, even if it's not the most PC, feminist right-on thing to want. (In the same way that many women in the Far East wish for fairer skin.)
And while much of the advertising from the last century is cringeworthy, there's a brilliant ad from the then Oil of Olay which I think captures the spirit of the brand and still works today. Better than 10,000 plinky pianos.

I would be most upset if someone told me I had a lovely smile for my age! Does that mean I didn't have a lovely smile five years ago, or I might not have one next week? Plus how the heck do they know how old I am. I might look ten years older than I really am, or (I wish) ten years younger! I want a cream for the 'nearly seventy' if they don't mind very much! I know I have 'deep wrinkles, but they are nowhere near as deep as they will be when I'm 95 and besides, they are just laughter lines, not wrinkles damn it!

Skin creams are a can of worms (if you'll excuse the metaphor) when it comes to advertising. I worked on some of these products in the past and the fact is that most of it is smoke and mirrors. A cheap moisturiser will work just as well, and probably give you a lovely smile because you've saved money :)

Getting the word out about your blog, website or another area of your social media presence can make all the difference in the world to a struggling company, but with so many areas of input battling for internet user's attention, it can be hard to draw in the customers you seek. I have selected a few courses from Hootsuite University's upper level classes that should help streamline your content creation and strengthen your online community.
SCMD 161: Generating and Sharing Content Effectively
The effective use of content creation and also curation can help you engage with your audience while at the same time let your audience feel engaged with your brand as they soak up the information you provide them with.
Created content is exactly how it sounds, content that is original work of your business that is then posted across your social media pages. It is important that your content is interesting, engaging and educational to your audience but creating content like this can be taxing on your resources. It is important that you strike a balance between content quality and quantity. Too much low-quality content will lower the image of your brand with your audience while less, but higher quality content might not be frequent or captivating enough to drive interest from audience.
Curated content is content relevant to your business that is sourced from other media outlets, that is then reviewed by your team to ensure it properly educates and informs the audience your business is directed at. Curation allows your business to save valuable time while also still putting out great quality content that engages and educates your audience. The types of curated content your company publishes should include articles, infographics, photos and relevant blog posts from around your industry. Aggregation can help to gather high quality content from experts in the field, but you should be careful not to include anything from your direct competitors.
SCMD 162: Growing Your Online Community
An online community is a group of people rallying around a shared, common interest. It is important for businesses to recognize their community, and engage with them so that they foster a strong presence within that community. Individuals within a community include followers, customers, influencers and competing businesses.
Listening to your community can provide insight on to how your company is viewed, and to understand the strengths and weaknesses of your products. Communities can also help you when working on a new product as you can poll or directly ask members questions about the features they would like to see implemented by your company. This helps the community to feel like they contributed to the overall product design. A strong community will also help to save you time and effort by the presence of informed customers or community members, who can answer a question or concern for you, reducing the amount of resources spent on the community. Although it is still crucial to monitor and listen to your community.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) on Thursday expressed just as much disappointment regarding the suspension of the annual open house at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory as just about everyone else in the science community.
The Los Angeles Times reported Thursday that JPL is suspending the open house in La Cañada Flintridge that had been scheduled for June 8 and 9, making the popular yearly gathering the latest casualty of the automatic federal budget cuts known as sequestration.
The "difficult decision" to put off the event was reached Tuesday, JPL spokeswoman Veronica McGregor said in an e-mail to The Times. "If we can hold it later in the year after the budgetary dust settles, we will."
The decision will almost surely be a universally unpopular one given that each year it attracts thousands of lookie-loos to the high-tech campus.
Casey Dreier, advocacy and outreach specialist at the Planetary Society, the Pasadena-based space exploration advocacy group told The Times they were "very disappointed" with the decision.

|King Solovar
|General Information
|Real name:
|First Appearance:
|The Flash #106
|Created by:
|John Broome
|Gorilla City
|Portrayed by:
| Michael Rye (Voice)
David Ogden Stiers (Voice)
Nick Jameson (Voice)
Keith David (Voice)
For many years, Solovar was the leader of Gorilla City, a hidden city of hyper-intelligent gorillas. Renowned for his wisdom and psychic powers, he was virtually unchallenged, except by the villainous Gorilla Grodd. This rivalry was so great that, after Solovar was captured by humans (playing dumb to keep his identity and origin secret), Grodd followed him to Central City to learn the secrets of Solovar's force-of-mind powers.
Meeting The Flash
The Flash helped the gorilla leader escape and became the first human to learn of the city's existence and its location. This led to a rivalry between Grodd and the Flash, as well as an alliance between the Flash and Solovar. Solovar was engaged to marry the beautiful Boka. However, Grodd, who had just arrived home after being released from prison, used neo-magnetic radiation to make himself irresistible to her and married her instead, becoming briefly Gorilla City's king. Under Solovar's guidance, Gorilla City was a technological utopia. Eventually, he decided his people could no longer use their science to hide from the human world. Believing that the world's ecological and political problems couldn't be solved by ignoring them, he opened his city's borders to the world and asked for membership in the United Nations. He advocated peace — among the gorillas and with humans — and was behind two diplomatic overtures to the human world.
The second tour of the U.S., sadly, was cut short by his assassination by a lethal car bomb. While a mysterious group calling itself the Human Supremacy Movement took credit for the act, it was quickly made clear that Solovar's assassination at the hands of human racists was in fact a ruse concocted by the Simian Scarlet, a group of gorillas within Gorilla City seeking to overthrow the ruling council. The manipulators were themselves manipulated by Gorilla Grodd.

Undergraduate Business Program
This is an analysis of Darden Eating places and Brinker International… this shouldn't be used for investing purposes of any kind, but relatively for studying about primary company finance ratios. The writer is just giving his perspective primarily based on his personal analysis and will not be held answerable for anyone who makes use of the following data for something greater than a studying instrument. Advisors who have other clients in your trade will be capable to get up to hurry more shortly and help add to the 'worth' talked about earlier. This is not to say that it's best to avoid advisors who haven't any experience in your market, but you have to to find out how much you suppose that have is worth when it comes to carrying out enterprise monetary planning activities.
Maintain all related data prepared. Your energy provider will probably require your postal code, the title of your present supplier of electricity and gasoline, the tariff plan underneath which you're contracted, your vitality usage in kilowatt hours or kWh of each gasoline and electrical energy, and your bank details or credit card details. Most of this information will be discovered out of your recent electricity bills. The switch might be accomplished even without the electricity invoice by working with estimated utilization figures.
Individuals have been doing business because the dawn of time, and there are numerous classes that one can be taught from studying the successes and failures of others.

Insurance coverage brokers, appraisers, claims investigators and advertising and marketing representatives work carefully with folks and businesses. Insurance coverage adjusters, underwriters, loss management specialists, threat managers and actuaries work behind the scenes balancing the numbers.

The second accomplishment was to get a bunch of prescriptions filled. I had to do some running up and down stairs at student health due to happy fun summer vs fall semester fees, but it certainly didn't hurt my blood sugar. Then, since Wal-Mart said it'd be about half an hour for my prescription there to be filled, I took a nice brisk walk around the store. All in all, I figured I got enough exercise this afternoon that I only went for half a walk this evening.
As I mentioned in my earlier post, Andy was kind enough to get the photos of my visit to Rome off of our digital camera. Today I picked out the nine best and made a gallery of the visit. I'll probably be making an album for each of September and October as well.
I'm also planning on finally doing something I'd meant to for years, and now I'm kicking myself for not starting it sooner. Grandpa's coughing every few words, so I don't know if this'll work at all, but I'm going to buy a tape recorder and a ten-pack of tapes, give it to him, and ask him to talk about anything -- family history, stories about growing up, stuff about Grandma, whatever comes to mind. I also want to do this for Grandma Shad, Bill and Jean (Andy's maternal grandparents) and Jeanette (Andy's paternal grandmother). At some point in the future (when they can't record any more) we'd make a CD or ten out of the tapes and give copies to everyone in the family. Any family members who are reading this and would like to chip in, please let me know. Between my jewelry project and the recorders, I'm not sure I'll be able to cover everything, even splitting up the project over two or three years. Also, any family members reading this who might be interested in keeping a journal should let me know, and I can get you started for free.
One good thing about Grandpa being afraid of computers is that I can write about gift ideas here and never have to worry that he might happen upon them. My idea for his gift in October is to ask folks (any Pilny who is reading this has been officially notified :) to send pictures of them with Grandpa or Grandma or Mary. The photos can be from anything; special occasions or just hanging out. I'll scan all of them for posterity, then make a nice scrapbook for Grandpa. Egad, I suddenly realize how much I'm getting myself in for. I think I'll consider it make-up for having been unemployed and useless for so long. I may have to save the scrapbook for real Christmas; I'll see if I can get people started on the pictures and go from there.
Tomorrow I get to pretend I'm a responsible housewife, yay! For technical reasons I need to wait until September to order the shiny rocks, so housework will keep me from obsessing too much until I can do so. I'm really hoping the MaO thing isn't just yes-no; I love the whole bargaining thing. Oops, there I go talking about my project again -- time to go do some dishes.

A good Forex broker provides a little for everyone. Beginners need good resources to learn the tools of the trade. Experts need to be able to plug in their favorite signal tools.
What did the GC Report AvaTrade review discover? Can people of all different skill levels succeed by trading Forex at AvaTrade? Has the firm offered any innovations?
Growing Forex Profits
In 2006, the Dublin based AvaTrade opened its doors. It has since expanded to Paris, Shanghai and Tokyo. It is regulated by 5 different government agencies.
The customer service for AvaTrade is in about a dozen languages. This is truly a global Forex firm. You can find a little that will appeal to all here.
Bitcoin Money
The name "first mover" is given to the brand that first creates, offers or supports something. AvaTrade is a first mover. It might not have been the "first" officially, but it was one of the first Forex brokers to offer Bitcoin trading back in 2013.
Hindsight is 20/20 and now all of these other firms want to join in on the Bitcoin phenomenon. Bitcoin was hot. By being one of the 200,000 members of AvaTrade, you could have made money by trading Bitcoin. Now, you can trade Dash, Ethereum, Monero and Ripple on AvaTrade.
This innovation has made AvaTrade an industry leader. Assets go up and down. It doesn't matter how long Bitcoin will be around, it is a hot asset and should be traded.
FX Experts Agree
The FX Empire has reviewed numerous brokers from around the world. It has a very good reputation for being unbiased. When it compared all of the Forex brokers, which was one of the best? AvaTrade.
From 2013 to 2016, FX Empire awarded AvaTrade with its best Forex broker prize. Why was AvaTrade so worthy?
It offered cryptocurrencies before other binary options traders. AvaTrade has offered the solid MetaTrader 4 trading platform. Traders can use plug-ins, like Zulu Trade for social trading and Mirror Trader for signals. AvaTrade has a little bit of something for everyone.

This past weekend Emily and I went down to visit Ashley in her new digs in Philly! She was hosting a house warming party and we jumped at the chance to hang out.
Ashley's home is an extension of her style in every way shape and form. Mint green dishes, framed photos of ice cream and Gene Wilder, dresses and shoes displayed everywhere like pieces of art. I was so happy to see her settled and enjoying her new life on the East Coast and it's selfish of me - but I'm thrilled to have her so close!
These photos are from our Saturday afternoon lady date. The first thing we did was grab some amazing food (duck fat cheese fries WHAT?!), then quickly headed to the $.99 store to pick up some party decorations. On the way back we lurked on a side street and took pictures as passers by gave us odd looks. This is what happens when you bring ladies of the internet together! You can see more pictures from our silly photo shoot over on Ashley's blog.

If I was to be stranded on a safe, but deserted island and I could take only one thing with me, it would be music! I love music! I listen to all music genres and languages, from oldies to modern music.
Music also prevent me from motion sickness. I have this annoying symptom since childhood and there's no other way as effective as music (besides medicine) that could help me get rid of it. As long as I close my eyes and listen to my favorite music, I will be fine.
Today, we went to Pasir Panjang food centre to try the healthy Char Kway Teow that was introduced in some food show.
While waiting for our Char Kway Teow, Lg also bought Hokkian Mee, my favorite dish. The heart shaped prawns were displayed by me!!! Hahahah!!!
I'm usually not a fan of oily Char Kway Teow, but I like this healthy version with a mountain of veggies!

Participant, winner of the 2015 Lost Roads Press Bessmilr Brigham Writers Award. Selected by John Keene and Eleni Sikelianos.
[Purchase from Small Press Distribution]
The long eponymous poem in Participant creates an intimate interspecies geography. It takes Emily Dickinson's poems as prism & through them conspires with immediate contingencies to document the mingling of human and non-human trajectories. The companion series of poems "Leaflets" reconstructs, in broken grammars and forms, a multiply-sited close listening/inhabiting of the echoing between actual & textual worlds. Together these sketch the emplacements and embodiments of a new intersubjective regionalism.
Linda Russo shows how to distill and clarify perception as a method of lyric practice in order to render "a world made sharp." The long poem of observation "Participant," edged with philosophy and critique, floats effortlessly across the page, yet anchors in the consciousness like a vital point on a map of a still not fully visible present and future. Participant's speaker worries the division between natural and built environments around her, "into the undertone of the other world," while demonstrating how poetry fuses the line between being the observer and the one who brings the invisible into view.
- John Keene, author of Counternarratives (New Directions, 2015)
In these beautifully woven poems, as living branches or twigs in a bower, we are proffered a sensitive record of what it means to be alive and thinking among other living things doing their own kinds of thinking. Syllables become the leaves plushing this place we inhabit, this nest in which is gathered a plurality, an ecosystem "spared from data." There are these and other truths to be found in these pages, where "words for these leaves make the world seem seen."
- Eleni Sikelianos, author of You Animal Machine (Coffee House Press, 2014) and The California Poem (Coffee House Press, 2004)
Portions of PARTICIPANT have appeared in Tears in the Fence, no. 63, and E-Ratio

Like with all other aspects of your business you need to develop a strategy and plan for how you will attract franchisees. Below is a sample recruitment plan. Modify it according to your business and your goals. The enquiry rates are general estimates and can vary significantly from franchise to franchise and medium to medium.
Aim: to recruit 2-3 franchisees in the first year:
Overall budget: $20 000 - 30 000 per annum
To ensure the success of the franchise network you will also need to formulate and establish an ongoing offer to your franchisees. For example, once on board your franchisee can expect to receive and benefit from:
There are mixed opinions about how much detail franchisors should ask franchisees on these application forms. Some franchisors believe they need to know quite a lot of detail about the personal and financial situation of applicants. While this may be true the question is when is the right time to ask for it? Will prospects be willing to divulge details of their financial situation at this early stage, when they hardly know you or haven't yet decided if they want to buy your franchise? An alternative is just tell them on the form what the franchise cost and then to ask if they have access to that capital and or require a loan.
To successfully operate any business, you need to have starting capital for investment plus ongoing working capital. The cost of a [SAMPLE FRANCHISE] depends on the location but can range from $XXXXX + GST + working capital. Do you have the cash available for this type of investment or would you need finance?

This document is not a complete guide to franchising, it is a starting point. It should be combined with your own independent legal, accounting or business advice and the disclosure document provided by the franchisor.
Entering a franchise is a big decision. Before you do so, you should:
Conduct due diligence – this means researching the franchise system and talking to current and former franchisees.
The Franchising Code of Conduct sets out the rights and obligations of the people involved in a franchising relationship. It can be found at http://www.comlaw.gov.au.
You should also consider taking a specialist franchising or business course before making a decision to enter a franchise agreement. There are free, online education courses available for prospective franchisees. Some courses can be found here http://www.franchise.edu.au/education.html.
Franchising is a model for doing business. When you enter a franchise agreement, the franchisor controls the name, brand and business system you are going to use. The franchisor grants you the right to operate a business in line with its system, usually for a set period of time. There is no guarantee you will be able to keep your franchise business after the initial period of the agreement ends.
Franchisors and franchisees must comply with the Franchising Code of Conduct, which exists under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010, as well as consumer and company laws. The Franchising Code sets out minimum requirements for a franchisor to provide specific information to you. A franchise agreement, once entered into, is a legally binding contract that sets out the terms of the franchise.
A franchise can offer particular benefits over other types of businesses. For example, franchises may have an established product or service and an existing reputation and image. It may also give you access to the franchisor's experience and knowledge in the industry, planning, marketing skills and operating procedures. Some franchise systems provide support, some do not. You should carefully think about whether the franchise system you are considering suits your business experience, skills and needs.
Two important features of franchising are that the franchisor has established the business system you are using and that most franchise systems rely on each franchise maintaining consistency. For those reasons, franchisees are usually required to strictly comply with the operating procedures set down by the franchisor. As a result, you may be limited in the changes you can make to the franchise system without the agreement of the franchisor. You will usually also be bound by confidentiality obligations. This includes limits on your rights to use the franchisor's intellectual property or business system outside the franchise. Most businesses adjust to meet changes in the market. The franchisor might make changes to the franchise system at any time but does not have to discuss them with all franchisees.
In franchising, as in any business, unexpected expenses may arise. Events such as a natural disaster or a change in the law or Australian standards can impact your business. You need to have a business plan that takes this into account when working out the funds you will need for the future. You should also make sure you have the type of insurance which is right for your situation. During the life of your franchise agreement, a franchisor might also decide to update computer systems or introduce new uniforms or change the appearance of the franchise system. These changes might not have been thought about when you entered the agreement. Those costs would normally be paid by the franchisee under the agreement.
Statistics suggest franchises have a lower failure rate than other businesses, but franchising is not risk free. Franchising is a business and, like any business, there is the potential for a franchisor or franchisee to become insolvent. If this occurs this may have significant impacts on your business, for instance, you may no longer be able to use the franchise system's branding.
Some of the things you should think about are:
You may not have an automatic right to renew your agreement once the initial term is over. You should think about what happens at the end of the agreement:
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) administer and enforce the Franchising Code. For example, the ACCC can provide information on how supply arrangements work in a franchising relationship.
Further information Further information on franchising can be found at http://www.accc.gov.au or by calling the ACCC Small Business Helpline on 1300 302 021.

Concerning "A Restless Faith" Discussion
The writer of the SMH article has prompted a well written response here from a writer at Creation Ministries International and is being taken up by correspondents from different parts of the world.
When you have 'dirty linen' it has to come out of the closet at some stage and the inconsistency in doctrine and exegesis at Moore College on Genesis has found its day.

Well, Sam, would you believe this: According to Keith Mascord, Michael, son of his father, Peter the Jensen, the Archbishop, doesn't even believe in the inerrancy of scripture?
Judging by the way these guys spruik their nonsense, the only inerrant writings are Michael's, son of the Archbishop, and Keith Mascord's.
So, I find it very difficult to get my head around these guys actually being Christian. I mean, you believe that Jesus, Paul etc got things wrong in their writing? What the heck do these snakes mean? White washed tombs with dead men's bones inside, to borrow the phraseology of a less than 100% inerrant itinerant preacher.

It seems we now have one ex lecturer plus one current lecturer at Moore College and one high profile author/media clergyman airing their endorsement of homosexual behaviour and at least two of them rejecting inerrancy of Scripture. The other is undisclosed but, at the least, he is shaky.
The future of the Diocese is bleak on present trend.

Just been catching up with the mystical nonsense that Mascord is letting loose on the world. The guy's crazy and is obviously well past salvage. His ability to follow even one single point of logic is comparable to one of those flakey Newtown New Ager's attempts to be consistent ("Hey, man, you want to smoke a joint through my new Tibetan crystal bong, man? And did you know Jesus went to India and studied Buddhism with the enlightened masters? I read a book that told me it was so because the author got in contact with a monastery which.....").
No wonder his argument for homosexual marriage rests solely on his "experience" with his homosexual friends in Sydney's south. The hubris of the man continues when he reckons his "experience" trumps Jesus', Paul's and Moses' words. In other words,these three got it wrong because his friends' buggery says so.
