Dreams Do Come True
By Tony Markovich, Corvette Forum - September 12, 2016
Numerous concepts have played with the mid-to-rear-engine design dating back to the '70s. There were even two (now famous) clay models, one of a Corvette and one of a Cadillac XLR constructed in the early '00s, according to Bob Lutz himself, but budget and financial issues quickly shut down any chance of those making it to production. GM execs literally have been talking about this for longer than I've been alive, and multiple parties have believed it's the natural next progression for continued development of the American superstar. That's only compounded as the blog era has reached its gossipy stride.
The rumors have hotly intensified the past two years with the sightings of a few strange-looking mules. Car and Driver saw this insane wide-body Holden-ute concoction last year, and most recently, a heavily-layered car was captured from an extremely far, heat-riddled distance. GM's head of global product development, Mark Reuss, also reportedly confirmed the project and called it "revolutionary."
We saw signs that a prototype for the mid-engine C8 was actively out testing on a course heavily blocked by thick trees, but we kept after it, looking for the slightest sliver of space to see the car that—the Detroit News says—is referred to as "Emperor" by GM insiders. There must be at least a small gap through those trees through which to catch a new view of the long-rumored, eagerly-awaited mid-engine Corvette.
Technically, this is all still speculation, because shapes of mules change all the time, but this is the first real suggestion of a Corvette shape melded with a mid setup, so what the hell, right? Expectations for the car sit around 700-plus horsepower and $150,000. The value Corvette wouldn't immediately be cut, but there have also been rumors that the Emperor would eventually be the sole model offered.
Codename EMPEROR
The Detroit Free Press, Auto Critic, Tony Phelan – August 5, 2016
There's mounting suspicion Chevrolet is developing a mid-engine Corvette super car. The as-yet-unconfirmed car has become a hot topic of conversation among engineers, car lovers, auto writers and automakers' strategists in the wake of the Ford GT's triumph at the 24 Hours of Le Mans race and news that GM is investing $290 million in major upgrades to the factory that makes Corvettes.
There have been rumors of a super 'Vette for decades. The timing appears to be ripe for the car now, but not everyone thinks it's a good idea.
Building a faster Corvette might seem like a no-brainer, but how fast? Perhaps more important: how expensive?
The question has divided car lovers and automotive experts.
GM has toyed with the idea of building a super 'Vette to compete with exotic cars like Ferrari and Lamborghini for decades. Notable examples include the 1959 Scaglietti Corvette, a one-off aluminum-bodied 'Vette whose development involved Carroll Shelby years before the legendary Texan created the AC Cobra with a Ford V8.
GM has walked to the brink several times, but always backed away before building a radical Ferrari-style super car under the Corvette banner.
There are many reasons for GM's reluctance. The Corvette has been a performance icon and money maker for Chevrolet for more than 60 years. Part of its appeal is the affordability of sticking to a proven formula: V8 power, front engine, rear-wheel drive.
"Corvette has a unique position in the industry. It's already a super car," says Automotive News engineering and technology reporter Richard Truett. "It already delivers more performance and better handling than most drivers will ever need or use. And it does that at a price no other automaker can touch."
Why mess with success?
A couple of reasons come to mind. The current C7 Corvette Stingray pushes the limits of performance you can get from a front engine/rear drive car, IHS Automotive senior analyst Stephanie Brinley says. Mid-engine cars have their engine behind the passenger compartment and in front of the rear axle. That layout distributes the weight in a way that's ideal for handling and acceleration.
"To build a faster, better-handling Corvette, you have to look at a mid-engine layout," Brinley said. "The Ford GT may have given Chevrolet permission to build a car GM has always stopped short of." The Ford GT, which won its class at the famous Le Mans endurance race this year and goes on sale shortly, has a mid-engine chassis and a price expected around $400,000. The GT ladles on technology you can't afford at the price of a current Corvette, like strong, light carbon fiber body panels and a twin-turbo V6.
Prices for the current Corvette Stingray start at $55,400, an incredible bargain for one of the world's greatest sports cars.
Prices for the mid-engine Corvette will start at $80,000 and escalate rapidly, according to Car and Driver magazine, which has been out front with news about the car. The magazine reports it will debut in January 2018 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit with a version of the current V8 and a new dual-clutch transmission. The car's code name within GM is "Emperor," according to journalist Don Sherman, who has written extensively about it in Car and Driver. The magazine says it will replace the current 'Vette.
The concept of a megabuck Corvette to compete with exotic cars is simultaneously appealing and perverse.
Former Free Press auto critic Lawrence Ulrich wrote a story titled "The Mid-Engine Corvette is a Terrible Idea" for the website the Drive.
Ulrich pulls no punches, writing: "It's a death knell for the Corvette, at least in the (relatively) accessible, aspirational form that made it America's Sports Car. Apologists will point to what people spend for Porsches or Ferraris with comparable performance, but that misses the point.
"The Corvette is still a Chevrolet. Corvette buyers are not Ferrari buyers. They demand unmatched bang for the buck, in part because they have fewer bucks."
But what if the Corvette's future is not an either/or question? If the current configuration is so great, and a mid-engine model could be that much better, why not build both?
Mid-Engine Corvette Will Wear The "Zora" Moniker for 2019
Motor Trend Blogs By Alex Nishimoto, Detroit Free Press – July 30, 2016
Based on trademark filings from 2014, we think the mid-engine Corvette will wear the "Zora" moniker, after the father of the 'Vette Zora Arkus-Duntov. Placing the engine aft of the cockpit would completely change the Corvette's handling characteristics, and would place the Corvette Zora in the company of the Ford GT and Ferrari 488 GTB. The car could also pack a performance hybrid system like the Acura NSX and Porsche 918. That's one theory former GM head of product development Bob Lutz stands behind. Lutz believes the C8's 2018 debut means the engineers have been busy working electrification into the equation. The high-profile auto industry personality speculates the mid-engine Corvette will offer "10- to 15-mile plug-in electric capability."
"That would only require a 5-kWh battery, or $1,300 at today's lithium-ion prices (plus motors and hardware)," Lutz told The News in an email. "It would be enough to give it a 50 mpg city label, and the electric motors at the front would enable limited AWD capability."
750hp Corvette Engine in the Works
By Patrick Rall, Torque News – July 20, 2016
There are rumors that the long-awaited mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette will debut at the 2018 Detroit Auto Show and a new rumor suggests that it will feature a new supercharged engine with somewhere in the area of 750 horsepower – possibly making it the most powerful American production car of all time.
The current Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is powered by the supercharged LT4 V8, which delivers 650 horsepower and 650lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful production road car that General Motors has ever offered. However, with the Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger both coming with the SRT Hellcat trimline, offering 707 horsepower and 650lb-ft of torque, the most powerful Corvette of all time falls a little short of the most powerful American production car by more than 50 horsepower.
However, based on an interesting discussion between a few folks who work in the auto industry, it looks like GM might be cooking up a new engine for the Corvette lineup – one which will comfortably overpower the Dodge Hellcat Hemi.
As we all know, automakers don't like to talk about future products until they are good and ready, and in the case of a rumored engine for a rumored mid-engine Corvette, GM most certainly isn't interested in offering any insight. This information comes strictly from a few industry sources with the most reliable being a friend of mine who recently had a talk with a friend of his – who happens to work for GM.
During that discussion, the GM employee was telling my friend about an engine that they are working on – a supercharged engine intended to power the new super-Vette. There was no mention of a mid-engine setup, but this insider claimed that he was familiar with a project to build a new top of the line performance engine for the Corvette and Camaro. According to this insider, the goal for this engine was 750 horsepower for the Corvette with slightly less power in the Camaro.
Keep in mind that over the past year, we have discussed a possible rebirth of the LT5 engine name. The LT5 was best known for powering the C4 Corvette ZR1, during which time it was a groundbreaking engine and one of the most powerful on the market. GM trademarked the LT5 name at the same time that the protected the LT4 name and since then, it has been speculated that the LT5 would power the next big-power Corvette. Based on this new information, I believe that the engine being discussed could be a new 750hp LT5.
Again, this information is 100% unofficial, coming from a discussion between two engineers having a beer, but my friend assured me that this guy was very familiar with the project – enough so that he has been telling people not to buy a Hellcat car because GM will have an answer very soon. Needless to say, a Corvette from this generation or the next with 750 horsepower would set a new bar for the American auto industry, but with the expectation that the mid-engine Corvette won't debut until early 2018 – it could be more than a year before we get solid information on this engine.

28th September heralded the 2016 Funny Women Awards, in London's glitzy KOKO nightclub. Founded by Lynne Parker as a response to a promoter claiming that "women aren't funny", Funny Women has been a fantastically supportive organisation for women working across the comedy field, running events, courses and also hosting their annual awards of which this is the 14th year. Previous contestants include Sarah Millican, Katherine Ryan and Bridget Christie and many more names who are part of what has been described as a "golden age for women in comedy", finally being included on TV game shows and the like. As Tiffany Stevenson commented on the night, women have been held back in comedy for so long that we've had time to get f*cking amazing, and the Awards was an opportunity to celebrate this..
Hosted by veteran comedian (and previous finalist) Kerry Godliman, the evening showcased the 6 stand up finalists, the 4 comedy shorts finalists and also included the presentations for the best comedy script and show of the year. The 6 finalists for the stage awards had each been mentored by a professional comedian, most of whom were present to introduce their protegee. The prizes for all of the winners included further industry mentoring, showcasing of work and a financial award to help them move forward. This added level of support is typical of the Funny Women approach, and will definitely ensure a foot in the door at the next level for each of those participants. Sponsored by Benefit UK, the event also also supported the work of Refuge with all profits and other donations going to the charity.
Impressively, each of the comedy acts had a very distinct voice and individual style which made them a formidable group. Rivka Uttley (mentor - Zoe Lyons) opened with observational material about single life and family advice/interference. It's never easy to be the first on stage, especially in a packed venue, and Rivka seemed a little stiff at first but as she warmed up she delivered a charming set. She was followed by newcomer Rosie Jones (mentor - Sara Pascoe), a veritable powerhouse with fantastically acerbic material about life with a disability. All killer punchlines and carefully honed language, Rosie was exciting to watch because of the quality of her work.
Next up was Harriet Braine (mentor - Ellie Taylor), previous winner of Best Newcomer at the Musical Comedy Awards and specialist in Art History. She had chosen songs about Pablo Picasso and Charles Rennie Mackintosh, an unusual choice for most comedy gigs… however Harriet held the audience in the palm of her hand with her warm alto voice, flawless accent changes and clever spin on the lyrics of well known melodies. Following a short interval, Catherine Bohart (mentor - Shazia Mirza) took to the stage with tales of being the unconventional daughter of a deacon. Catherine has only been performing for 18 months but came over as a seasoned professional, relaxed and in control.
The penultimate act was Rose Robinson (mentor - Jan Ravens), a character performer who was in a sketch comedy group until she began working on solo material earlier this year. Performing as a character who could be described as Joyce Grenfell meets Morwenna Banks with a touch of Julie Walters, Rose completely inhabited her creation. This was more of a story-telling piece rather than stand up comedy and it did set itself apart somewhat - perhaps a separate category would work well next year? The final act was dutch comedian Micky Overman (mentor - Tiff Stevenson) who gave a deliciously dark turn encompassing break ups and vampire dating apps. Micky stood out as a performer who took real risks with her material, feeling the audience responding was an exciting and dramatic experience.
The Comedy Shorts were shown next, a selection of 4 very different films. Ambition by Carolyn Goodyear sees the main character desperate to win employee of the year over his harsh, braying colleagues. Manhunt by Christine Entwhistle is a surreal window into the life of a woman possessed by the head of a Cindy doll attached to her finger, who is looking for new love after the unfortunate demise of her boyfriend Paul. Mary Berry's Little Lamb by Kirsty Mann delivers an entertaining impersonation of the Bake Off's treasure, showing us how to create a decidedly non-vegetarian-friendly recipe out of her own pet. Tinder Finger by Lolly Jones is a spoof pop video about the highs and lows of the online dating app and features some excellent dance breaks.
The comedy writing finalists' scripts were not shared with the audience. They were Bunker by Lucy Dwyer, Savages by Carol Walsh, The Motherhood by Abby Woolf and Full House by Emily Jane Clark. It would have been interesting to see a performance of an extract from each, this would also have given opportunities for more practitioners and performers to get involved, perhaps showcasing female directors, lighting and set designers too.
The well-deserving winners were as follows:
Stage Award - Harriet Braine
Comedy Shorts - Ambition by Carolyn Goodyear
Comedy Writing - Savages by Carol Walsh
The winner of the Best Show had already been announced, Anna Morris for her sold out Edinburgh production "It's Got To Be Perfect". FemaleArts review of Anna's show can be read here: http://www.femalearts.com/node/2591

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Friday, August 14th, 2015
If the world were a just place, all children would have clean water to drink, JFK would have simply had a nice ride on that day in November, and Braid would draw much larger crowds. By all rights, Braid should be playing venues larger than the 250-capacity Local 506. But, alas, the world at large didn't really embrace Braid the first time around so why should I think it would be anything different as Braid tuned up for their 665th show on Friday night. Sure, you can read about the lasting legacy of "Frame & Canvas" from the more hip media outlets plus all the positive reviews of the more recent "No Coast", but it all simply comes down to how deeply you feel "The New Nathan Detroits" or "A Dozen Roses". For this humble writer, the answer is, emphatically, "Very much so."
Admittedly, I was a bit late to the Braid party myself. I first heard "Frame & Canvas" after Braid had initially split up. At the turn of the millennium, I was looking for the counterpoint to all the brutal metal that was rattling around between my eardrums. I ended up landing squarely in emo's 2nd wave of the early-to-mid 90s, finding solace in (as described by Andy Greenwald) the "boy-driven, glasses-wearing, overly sensitive, overly brainy, chiming-guitar-driven college music" of bands such as Braid and their contemporaries. I vividly remember downloading "A Dozen Roses" and "Forever Got Shorter" off of Limewire and instantly falling in love. (Editor's Note: You youngsters don't know how good you have it these days, technologically speaking. When I look back at the state of the internet in the year 2000, it was as if we were rubbing two sticks together to make fire. "Mom! Hang up the phone! I'm on 'the net'!")
Now, in my 33rd year, with the members of Braid closely on either side of 40, I wondered how finally seeing them live would strike me. Would it rekindle the pensive ennui of my late teen years or has that ship sailed after 15 years of being dragged down by the weight of existence? Would I even remember the lyrics to "Killing a Camera" or would I be hoping the show would end at a reasonable hour so that I could make the drive back to Raleigh? Luckily, it all came rushing back to me like "a dream for the teens and in-betweens and twenties yet unseen".
From the the opening chords of "Bang" to Bob's in-your-face sing-along with the biggest fan in the crowd, it was apparent why Braid decided to give it another go: They are still having fun. The set consisted of mostly equal parts "No Coast" and "Frame & Canvas" with a couple of other hits in the mix. (I didn't think to document the setlist. I was too busy drinking Shiner Bocks and dancing to the soundtrack of my youth. Maybe some hero will post it to Setlist.fm in a few days.)
As the sweat of another humid summer night in NC poured off their faces, Braid left for a brief moment prior to heading back in for the encore. Fans were calling out the titles of a variety of old songs (even their cover of the Smiths' "This Charming Man", which Braid actually attempted playing for a few bars, then quickly realized they had forgotten how that one went) before they settled into a 3-song encore, concluding with "The Chandelier Swing" off of "The Age of Octeen".
4/5 stars – As I made for the door after Braid waved their goodbyes, I couldn't help but appreciate the bonus to such a lovely evening of reminiscence: It was only 11pm. I'd be back in Raleigh before midnight! Swing away, Braid. Swing away.

One hallmark of an excellent meal is that you barely notice the service. Plates are delivered and glasses replenished with the minimum of fuss. You can savour the flavours and enjoy your conversation without interruption.
Digital technology is already enabling firms to upgrade customer service. Customer interaction is more proactive and more personalised. For example, Nespresso anticipate when I am running out of coffee capsules (based on my consumption patterns) and suggest an order. Retailers mine customer data to offer further purchases (e.g., those families buying diapers are more likely to buy beer).
Going forward, we might expect services to become 'invisible'. For example, your car might automatically purchase insurance for you as you drive each mile, rendering the insurer invisible. Your fridge could automatically order top-up supplies from a grocer without your intervention. Your bank could automatically update your details when you move house.
Such 'invisible' service would bring both benefits and threats for companies. On the positive side, customers may be prepared to pay extra for convenience and may be less likely to switch. On the flip side, invisibility brings the threat of disintermediation and brand erosion.
Firms wishing to realise the benefits of 'invisible service' whilst avoiding the threats should consider these cornerstones:
1. Fully understand the context. A good waiter will wait for a natural break in conversation before replenishing glasses. Companies should maximise the use of internal and external (e.g., social media) data to create a real time picture of customer needs and interrupt only when appropriate. The best online retailers already time e-mails to coincide with the time when you are most likely to be reading them.
2. Be present at 'moments of truth'. A waiter really comes into his own when taking the order. Companies should ensure that moments of truth (e.g. decision to purchase) are clearly associated with the brand, and are personalised as needed.
3. Aim for invisibility with lower value interactions. Dirty plates can be removed without a customer noticing. Similarly top up purchases or administrative changes should be automated as far as possible, and executed without customer knowledge if possible.
4. Seek permission up front. The best waiters will ask your permission up front to keep bringing bottles of water (or wine), without OK'ing expenditure each time. Companies need to seek permission to provide further service without asking for clearance each time. Amazon does this with 'turn on one click ordering' for example.
In summary, the best service can be invisible, but only if its routine, contextualised and permissioned.

Happy Paws Friends
A list of organisations and sites that we feel are incredibly important to anyone interested in adopting an animal.
Greyhound Rescue
- Greyhound Rescue is a small, non profit, Australian organisation run by Janet and Peter and works under the umbrella of the charity DABS, one of the longest running small animal rescues in Sydney. At the time of writing we have fifteen greyhounds looking for homes, some with foster carers but also some in paid kennels, costing $100 per dog per week, so we urgently need help to pay for these kennels....

text: Saturday was gorgeous with perfect weather. One of those days that you just have to be outside to enjoy the day. I had gone that morning to get my hair cut, and came home to Dane playing with his DS and Kevin doing school work. Our house seemed gloomy, and I just wasn't having it. I needed us to get out of the house and enjoy the sunny weather. Kevin agreed so we packed up and left and had no idea where we were going. We started driving, and decided we were going to find a place we could eat lunch outside on a patio. But, nothing was really jumping out at us. We were halfway down 1960 when one of us (I can't remember who) mentioned the Aggies and wondered if they had a baseball game that weekend. I looked it up on my phone and saw that they played at 2:05, it was 12:35. We gave it a quick thought and next thing we knew the car was turned around and we were headed to the house to grab a couple things like a blanket and then on the road to College Station. Very spontaneous trip!! We got there in plenty of time to get tickets and a place on the lawn before the first pitch. One of the perks of living in Cypress. I love that we are only about 45 minutes from Aggieland. It was a great day for a baseball game!! Perfect weather!! Dane had a blast playing with some boys at the playground that's right next to the field, rolling down the big hill, eating popcorn and we had fun watching the Aggies kick some bootay.

Last weekend, I filmed a sketch with the fabulous Wayne Henry, whom I've worked with for several years. He brought me on board with this wonderful cast, all of whom were deliciously talented. We spent most of the shoot cracking each other up! And afterwards, we were all abuzz with ideas and stories about Art and The Biz.
This is something I just LOVE, the energy that bubbles up amongst artists when they're in the groove and creating something as a team.
I've been so lucky to do a tremendous amount of that this year, working with terrific teams to create wonderful productions for the stage and on various screens.
It started with Steel Magnolias at Stomping Ground Theatre Company:
The co-founders, Angela Shultz and Melissa Harlow, the crew, the team spirit of SGT was simply amazing! It was everything theatre should be.
Then I re-teamed with Darg and Rayne for The Pound at the Signature Theatre. SO excited to have had my debut at this amazing Off Broadway theatre!
We also managed to record my big Park Ranger song from Sasquatched The Musical
Then I joined my Pageant Princess creators, Lorelei McKenzie and Kristen Penner, for a reading of the new pop musical, Pieces:
I went back to Stomping Ground Theatre Company to sing for their cabaret, Perspectives:
And I just wrapped filming with the incredible team behind Human Telegraphs:
I feel so thankful to have worked with so many talented people this year, and I'm grateful they've invited me into their wonderful worlds, telling unique stories with heart and humor!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Weekend Teaching Series: Best Year Ever: STORIES: Summer Camp edition (1-off)
Sermon in a Sentence: God is all about changing lives, be transformed here every week and once a year up at summer camp.
Service Length: 67 minutes
Understandable Message: This weekend we kicked off our registration for summer camp with a Stories weekend. A Stories weekend is when we don't have a "message" in the typical format, but allow students to share their stories with the entire group. Without a doubt, it is one of the most powerful messages we give every year, too! The students worked hard to prepare their story as well as had someone from our student ministry read through it with them and their parents signed off as well.
Element of Fun/Positive Environment: This week we had a fun game called Egg Roulette as well as a strong video near the front of the program. We also played last year's summer camp highlight video which was powerful and also brought back a ton of good memories from last year. Tons of students involved, great volunteers and a really fun, clean program.
Music Playlist: Alive, Oceans, Let It Be Known, He Is Alive
Favorite Moment: So many great moments – my favorite for sure being when Justin cut his head open playing Egg Roulette. Simple, fun game that apparently is near lethal, too. Hahhaahah … just glad he didn't get a concussion. In all seriousness, my favorite moment is for sure when a student gathers up the courage to share. SO powerful, the story of a changed life!
Up next: 50 Days of Transformation (church-wide campaign, week 1 of 7)

I hope you'll never lose the sense of wonder –
After a lot of rain and thunder –
You will remember to hope
And believe that with God's help, somehow you'll cope.
I hope you will sing –
Without being afraid of what kind of thing
People will think or say –
Because you are like a sun ray.
I hope you will dance –
Without being afraid of giving a chance
Of saying that you are awkward or old –
Let the joyful child in you always live, let your heart never become stone-cold.

November 15, 2015
Every now and then I see reviews of podcasts. Actually they are more like lists of favorites. Lists of podcasts the author enjoys. I have almost written many such lists myself. But I am not sure I see the value. A list of dozens of resources, each with two sentences on what they mean to the listener doesn't really tell me all that much about why I should listen. Surely there is more to a collection of 90 minute episodes than two sentences…a dozen or so words.
So the list I am going to collate is more…or less. It's not a list but a series of posts on "why" I listen to what I listen to. Let's start with one of the best: 99% Invisible.
I think that most of the credit for the greatness of 99pi goes to its producer and the narrator of many of the stories: Roman Mars. I have no idea if this is in fact his real name. Roman Mars? Really? Sounds like a name dreamed up in a grade school writing class assignment…an assignment with low marks for not being believable. But thats the name he goes by.
Roman has this gift for finding the stories about the buildings, the events, and the times we all know and telling them in a way that is totally fascinating. Many of the stories have an architectural slant, but I have loved the show since well before marrying an architect…though now that I think about it, maybe I appreciate her more from what Roman has taught me.
Over the course of 5 or so years, Roman has made 188 episodes of this amazing show. 188 gems. You might wonder if he remembers every one of these shows. Well recently I got the chance to meet him at an event for show supporters held near the campus of Harvard University. There was a crowd surrounding him and somehow I wedged my way in. They asked about some of his more popular shows including one on flags (sure, it was a great episode, but definitely not in my top 10). He rattled off facts and trivia to help further fill out the stories.
And so I asked him if he remembered every show. Apparently the flag one is a bit of an edge case. After the first episode, he did it on the TED stage. It's been watched 1.5 million times. That's kind of a big deal. Yeah, if over a million people watched me say something, I would probably keep that top of mind too. But thankfully he revealed that he is human and there are shows that get forgotten quickly. Despite spending hours editing each show, hearing himself repeated over and over as he gets the audio just right, he can forget. Once someone asked him about a episode only a few hours old and he had no idea what the guy was talking about. Whew, good to know.
Anyway, the show. Being a podcast, listening to them out of order is very easy. Lets take the last episode I listened to: about the problem with New York's Citibank building. This was actually a repeat of episode 110 but one of the best. I heard about the kerfuffle originally while living in New York in the late 90's. And if the show covered only what was told in the original New Yorker article, that might be good enough. Hearing the voices of the parties involved put more life in the potentially disastrous scenario. But they didn't stop there. They also solved the one mystery left in the story. They found the who in the whodunnit and made the story magical.
Every episode is like this. Finding something magical in what would already be a great story. The episodes tend to be 20-30 minutes and are all well worth the listen. There are some podcasts where it makes sense to make the previous episode your first and just go from there. You can do that here too, but you will probably want to listen to every episode from the beginning as well. Go through the back catalog…every one is a gem. Here are some of my favorites. Rather than linking to each one, just add it to your podcast app of choice through it's directory and pick the episodes that resonate (I prefer using Overcast).
43 – Accidental Music of Imperfect Escalators
83 – Heyoon
166 – Viva La Arquitectura
156 – Coin Check
118 – Song Exploder
65 – Razzle Dazzle
188 – Fountain Drinks
182 – A Sweet Surprise Awaits You
181 – Milk Carton Kids
172 – On Location
162 – Mystery House
161 – Show of Force
159 – The Calendar
149 – Of Mice and Men
147 – Penn Station Sucks
144 – There is a Light That Never Goes Out
137 – Good Bread
130 – Holdout
117 – Clean Trains
108 – Barcodes
105 – One Man Is An Island
97 – Numbers Stations
87 – I Heart NY, TM
66 – Kowloon Walled City
52 – Galloping Gertie
40 – Billy Possum
Listen to those and you should have a good feel of what 99 Percent Invisible has to offer. I think it is the best podcast out there and I can't wait to hear how Roman is going to inspire me next.

Morning Report: 4 July 2018
July 4, 2018
GBP. Parallels between the England game and sterling's trading day are easily drawn as the currency traded mostly sideways during the day, but eventually came out on top, with advances especially pronounced against USD. GBPUSD rallied as Monday's risk off dollar move seemingly unwound, with GBPEUR making ground back into the range it only dipped below once in 3-months. There looks to have been no trigger as sterling begun the rally in the early hours of the session, but Michael Saunders – a known hawkish member of the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee – spurred it on with comments that slack in the labour market has disappeared and that the BoE will have to hike faster than expected. The market's implied probability of a rate hike in August currently sits at 65.5%. Yesterday's release of a stronger than expected Construction Purchasing Managers Index for June added to the sterling strength, which saw the sector hit hardest by Q1's weather shocks rebound with the highest growth of the sector since November. Today at 09:30 BST, Services PMI will be released with no increased rate of growth expected for June.
EUR. Positive data and hawkish comments by European Central Bank's Chief Economist Peter Praet could provide little solace for the single currency yesterday as it softened against most currencies, with a minor plus against USD. The Producer Price Index in May delivered double the price growth that was expected at 0.8%, overshadowing a minor miss in Retail Sales with a flat 0.0% growth in the same time period. Praet was getting ahead of where the ECB's monetary policy stands at the moment and discussed how interest rates will become an important policy instrument now the bond purchases are being wound down. Throughout the morning several Eurozone countries release their final Service Sector PMIs, culminating into a Eurozone broad print at 9:00 BST.
USD. After being on an almost unbroken rally since mid-April the greenback took a breather yesterday and softened as Monday's risk move unwound. The downward pressure continues to test the dollars resolve this morning, with sterling, euro and JPY up against the greenback. Initial trade tensions had the US dollar gain as a safe haven destination, now doubts steadily arise about how the protectionist measures might slow down the US economy as former allies retaliate with trade tariffs of their own. So far the Manufacturing sector seems to shrug this off, with Factory Orders in May stronger than expected at 0.4%, while the April reading was also adjusted upwards. The only fireworks today will come from the fourth of July independence day celebrations and US bank holiday, which means markets will remain closed in the US and trading volumes are likely to be lower.
CAD. USDCAD continued its current downtrend yesterday as the loonie rallied by a third of a percentage point. As uncertainty over future oil supply crept into the market in the morning, oil prices rose by over a percentage point and a half, but later pared the price increase after news that the Saudi government granted the US's request to pump more oil. This set the loonie off in its tracks, but unlike WTI prices, the surge failed to subside. June's Manufacturing PMI came in at 57.1 compared to expectations of 56.2, evidencing that the manufacturing sector in the Canadian economy is growing faster than expected.

My curiosity started from seeing a shower curtain in my parents bath room that had http://x-nudism.com on it. Then I saw my grandfather walking naked to the bathroom, when my grandparents stayed at my parents house for a visit.
I believe my mom was or is into nudism, because she did not wear knickers, instead she wore pantyhose. I believe my parents may have tried swinging, because one morning we children discovered a pin-the-boobs-on-the-smasher poster still hanging on the den wall from one of their celebrations they had the night before. Me and my brother would also look through my father's playboy magazines while our parents were out shopping.
All these things made me interested but mainstream society depicted nudist as quacks, and the human body as smelly and filthy.
But I found out later in http://beach-photos.com is because of bacteria that grows in wet shadowy areas, like parts of the body that sweats a lot, and are covered by clothing.
To prove that point,I was told by a doctor while I was enlisted in in the military, to get rid of this recurring rash I had between my legs, was to wear no pants in my room when I was alone.
A another thing that pulled me nearer to nudism was the naked travel magazines I would see in book stores.
FRESH! HD fkk picture spinning to keep content fresh and intriguing
–FRESH! Simplified 1-page user interface
–Over 800 High Definition clips for download, distinct films rotated in every month
–200 awesome series added this season, with fresh movies
–Many Member's Area Clips remastered to 1024x720p/7Mbps HD
ViewWell, I started nudism with skinny dipping, and bare hike at golf courses through the night. Subsequently I began roller blading and cycling naked on bike trails early in the morning while it was dark out.
I then graduated to hiking nude during the day in woods and parks.
I now wear clothing when I 've to to function in a clothed society.
I don't have any shame in nudism because I believe we were created by a God
and not the consequence of evolution,and that he made every living thing, and then he created man and his wife. He demanded them to be fruitful and multiply and fill the world, and have dominion over all of the world. As well as the guy and the girl were naked and had no shame.
The next reason I have no shame is because all of God's creature are naked. I actually don't see them crafting themselves clothed, or attempting to conceal their bodies out of shame.
What I'd like to investigate next is social nudism. The only thing that is holding me up with this particular adventure is most of the nudism resort around here charge $80 to spend one day at their resorts.
The second problem is a lot of resort don't enable single men.

The thermal solver can be used to simulate the cooling of electronic components to keep them within the safe operating temperature range. The thermal simulation can include convection/diffusion, radiation and conjugated heat transfer, coupled to the flow produced by the fans. Fans are modeled either as a rotating part or as a surface boundary condition.
XFlow can be used to simulate agitators and mixers for the chemical industry or water treatment plants.
We can solves single and two-phase flows of immiscible fluids including surface tension and complex rheological behaviour. Stirrers are easily modeled as rotating parts.
In sports such as soccer, tennis or golf, aerodynamics play an essential role in the trajectory of the ball through the air. Simulating the flow around the ball at match-relevant velocities and measure the drag, lift and side forces acting on it. The ball moves and spins freely depending on the initial linear and angular velocities and orientation set by the user, and the interaction with the surrounding air.
We can simulate the flow around moving equipment such as industrial manipulators and production line robots in fabrication plants. It is possible to prescribe the motion of each object up to 6 degrees of freedom and so reproduce real operation conditions. The trajectories of dust particles can be tracked with the disperse phase model.
The use of highly viscous non-Newtonian fluids (e.g. toothpaste, melted plastic, chemical blends) is very frequent in many industrial applications. The complex rheological properties of these fluids can be easily introduced.
It has the most common viscosity models available (Newtonian, Sutherland, Cross, Herschel-Bulkley, power law, Carreau) but also allows any user-defined expression as function of temperature and shear rate.

HAPPY BLESSED NEW YEAR to you and your loved ones. I hope this year has started off with positivity, blessings and resolutions that with positively enrich your lives.
I'm so sorry for not posting in such a long time but honestly, there are so many things happening toooooo quickly. I will continue to pray and trust that my Father will give me direction because at times I feel like a swaying ship in the wind of life.
I got home as quickly as I could this evening just to "play" with makeup and create a look. For me, lighter colors pop more in the daytime so I went for one of my favorite colors- GREEN which would show more in the night.
Green symbolizes so many different things- peace, calmness, regeneration, nature, unfortunately envy, greed and money.

The cost of having a mortgage to buy a property in the UK is cheaper than renting in 84% of towns and cities in the UK, but the figure is down from 94% three months ago, research reveals.
It is cheaper to service a mortgage than to rent in 42 of Britain's top 50 towns and renting is now 16% more expensive on average than owning across Britain, the survey from property website Zoopla also shows.
And it found that renters in London pay £6,687 more on average per year than home owners and overall renting in Britain is costing 16% more on average than buying, up from 11% this time last year.
The average monthly rent in Britain has come down slightly by £9 on average over the past three months to £...
This year will be a reverse image of 2011, and a tale of two halves for the global economy and the world's commercial real estate markets, according to global real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield's latest Market View report.
While there was a healthy start for 2011, rising uncertainty surrounding the resolution of sovereign debt issues in Europe and the US led to a slowdown in the economy and commercial real estate activity in the second half of the year. The exact opposite performance is expected for 2012, with a sluggish beginning giving way to improvements in the latter half of the year.
'Despite uncertainties, there remains a well of pent up demand in most nations. As the year progresses and ...

Inexperienced first time buyers are ignoring the practicalities of owning a home, according to new research from HSBC published today (Friday 16 March).
The major considerations for first time buyers when looking for a property are location (35%), size of the outside space (27%) and local amenities (21%).
However, few consider more practical aspects important to their search such as plans for development in the area (1%), the condition of nearby properties (4%) signs of subsidence (5%) and the cost to update the property (6%).
HSBC asked 155 first time buyers what questions they felt were most important to ask the vendor when buying a property and 100 estate agents what questions they would advise first t...

UK house prices fell for the 21st consecutive month in March but people are more upbeat about the outlook, according to the latest House Price Sentiment Index (HPSI) from Knight Frank and Markit Economics.
The house price index, which is based on a nationwide survey of 1,500 households, showed that London was the only region where households felt that the value of their property was higher this month than last.
But the survey, which also asks households about what they think will happen to the value of their home over the next 12 months, gave the most upbeat reading for future house prices in nearly t...
An extra four in ten first time buyers have been exempt from paying stamp duty as a result of the UK government raising the starting threshold from £125,000 to £250,000 over the past two years, according to estimates from the Halifax.
The temporary increase in the threshold has meant that 95% of first time buyers over the period have not had to pay stamp duty.
An estimated 150,000 first time buyers have benefitted from the increase in the threshold over the past two years with approximately 380,000 first time buyers paying no stamp duty.
Returning the starting threshold to £125...
Expectations for future house prices were more optimistic during February as transaction levels continued to edge upwards, according to the latest UK Housing Market Survey published today (Tuesday 13 March) by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
Expectations for future prices saw a considerable turnaround in February with surveyors reporting a net balance of zero percent compared with -14 in January.
This is the first time since May 2010 that respondents have not been predicting further price declines. Given the recent upturn in interest from first time buyers looking to beat the stamp duty exemption deadline, it would appear that surveyors are slowly becoming less pessimistic over prices, according to RICS.<...

Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy is on a clean up mission to try to put his country's mortgage market back on track.
Gone are the days when local newspapers had adverts offering fake P60s for credit purposes but it could take some time for the lending industry to become more mature, according to experts.
The Spanish government is, for example, forcing takeovers and mergers to accelerate the change. Banco Sabadell acquired CAM bank for €1 in December 2011 and BBVA acquired Unnim bank for the same price this month.
Whilst Spain didn't have official subprime mortgages in the same manner as the United States, throughout the late 2000s it did fall victim to unrealistic mortgages being handed out by greedy banks with the help of unscrupulous mortgage advisers, real estate agents, lawyers, surveyors, valuers and accountants.
