Sending this out to all the activists/decent people I know, who will hopefully pass it on…
The London Free School Project aims to create a 'free school' - a squatted learning centre/community space in London, hosting workshops run by members of the community and outside speakers on everything from ancient history to permaculture to feminism to current events, gardening, creative writing and crafts workshops, film nights, art exhibitions and food events. The free school is built on the belief that encouraging members of the community to organise and rely on each other rather than on outside institutions will allow individuals to see their own power and the power of their community, in a world where that power is often held as secondary to the power of companies, governments and the police force. Holding non-hierarchical events will hopefully provide a platform for members of the community to connect with each other, building community strength and combating problems such as racism, anti social behaviour and the negative attitude towards 'teenagers'. Today's education system sees learning as a resource, a means to an end of getting a good grade and a well paid job, rather than as an end in itself; students are increasingly taught how to jump through hoops in exams and condense their knowledge down to memorable soundbites rather than developing a deeper knowledge of the subject for its own sake. The free school idea is built upon the belief that each individual has something they can contribute to a wider pool of knowledge, and the aim is to incorporate as large a variety of knowledge as possible to widen people's horizons and destroy harmful stereotypes and assumptions; even more important than the knowledge shared will hopefully be the building of partnerships and connections within a community, and ideally the school would eventually be handed over for local residents to use as they like.
At the moment we have a possible site - a large, three-storey detached house in Hounslow, West London, (very near Hounslow eco-village), with an enormous garden, running water, a flushing toilet and a large number of rooms on the third floor which could be used for accommodation, as well as large spaces on the first and second floors to hold workshops and events. However, what we don't have is people! Ideally what the project requires is a core group of people to permanently live on site, work on improving the house and garden, and make connections within the local community - people need to know and trust us before we open up the building and start holding workshops - as well as others who drop by and help make repairs, garden or bring in furniture. If you are interested and can give any time at all, whether an hour a week, a day, or living on site several days a week or even full time, please get in touch -
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Phone: 07…2
Please pass this on to anyone who you think will be interested!
At Grow Heathrow!
This is a really amazing place! The people here did a lot of networking - 6 months of getting in touch with the locals - before they did the land grab. I need to spend a lot of time getting in touch with people in activist circles/community projects etc. to find decent people to work on it with me, the people here and at Hounslow are lovely but involved in their own stuff. So I'll be going to climate camp meetings (going to an Iranian green movement meeting tonight, should be interesting), places like LARC, 56a and Pogo Cafe, as well as volunteering at a youth club near Hounslow (this great guy A will get me a place) and possibly working (earning MONEY!) as a school mentor.
So basically need to find a team of people and then start talking to people near where the school is gonna be based (unless someone gets to the building before me! ¬__¬).
Last night we went and had a proper look at the place, there's a window open right out front. Was a bit scary with the floors being just wooden beams with wood coverings, with quite a drop underneath, eek. Also some holes in the floor and one in the roof. But still, huge, beautiful place. It has a FLUSHING TOILET! And running water. It would be great to do it up. Some graffitti in there dating from 2008, some tools (including a digger!) with a lot of dust on them, a few of the old surgery beds (which are creepy, I kept expecting to find a body), some dishes by the sink which are all a bit dusty too. It doesn't look like anyone lives there, if they did there'd probably be beer cans everywhere or something. Looked on the internet but no info since like 2003 as far as I can find… I really hope we can use it, need to find some good people to squat it and work on it with me. Hopefully going down to some activist camp with good connections today, and then to Climate Camp meeting tomorrow, where I can find a few people <3
Went scouting for abandoned buildings this morning. After a lot of set backs, including the owners coming home to find me in their garden >__> I eventually found this enormous place, it's got a big garden out back with a ton of nettles, proper huge 3-storey house with a small glass conservatory area out front. There seems to have been building work going on there but the doors all have some cobwebs on them… I'm going to take a few people down there to have a look soon, but it's an amazing place and on a main road too, so it would be perfect. It's the old Pountney Cosmetic Surgery place.

Achieve a perfectly sculpted brow and a flawlessly finished face at the New York outpost of this beloved Beverly Hills brow boutique.
Damone Roberts' philosophy on beauty is simple: "Every face deserves the perfect frame." As a contributing beauty editor at Oprah.com and star of TLC's "10 Years Younger," Roberts certainly knows what it takes to achieve the perfect arch—he's been given the award for Best Eyebrows by InStyle, Us Weekly, Allure, Vogue, People, Los Angeles Times and USA Today. His chic salon in Midtown expertly sculpts the brows of clients, while educating them on what works best for their face and eye shape—the more angular the face, the softer the curve of the brow; the rounder the face, the sharper the arch (to elongate). The aestheticians here also offer facial waxing, as well as lash and makeup services. To attest to the respect Roberts has garnered in the beauty industry, there's proof in his salon's signature wall color: a light green reminiscent of sea foam. In 2009, an OPI nail polish in this color, called "Damone Roberts 1968," had its debut. It sold out in four weeks flat.

Hey guys. Admin of FYMST3k here.
So I'm minding my own business, playing Torchlight II. Fantastic game by the way. Great to kill some brain cells. Much more colorful and user-friendly than Diablo III (which is also good).
Then I come across this 'miniboss' in the dungeon.
And I had to push the "prtscrn" button before it died. No one would believe me if I didn't get a pic.

Put yourself in his shoes. He just confided something to you that made him vulnerable. Dont repay his trust and friendship with betrayal. If it were me, I'd be horrified if the person with whom i thought i had developed a rapport screenshotted an admission i had made with the thought of using it against me.
To be frank, you dont need that screenie in the first place. It was unethical to make it at all. If he really is a flake, he'll do something else soon enough and earn his own ticket out of there, and if he turns out to be a good person who is using that grey logic the drama mammas pointed out that most people use, then betraying him and starting up drama isnt going to do anyone any good.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We love our programs....design is even so much more beautiful in actuality than it looks online. We very much like all our stationary...however this design/stationary is by far our favorite and will make a great keepsake. You would be pleased with your purchase."
"These ceremony programs are beautifully elegant; just the way I imagined and wanted them. The designer was so patient in fixing all of my wishes and the finished product is PERFECT! I'm so happy! I will definitely use and recommend Wedding Paper Divas in the future!"
"I ordered this program along with the Rustic Wreaths menu, place card and thank you note, all in the color Almond. Since I ordered the other ones as plain signature matte, I thought I'd try this one with the Pearl White Shimmer. It's absolutely gorgeous! It adds something special to this design, just lovely. I'm going to order this suite for my wedding day, and in all pearl shimmer. The paper quality is nice and thick and the design is perfect for our day.. rustic and to me feels a little bit French. Very happy with this product :)"
"Ordered these for my wedding in June. They turned our so lovely. Ordered them with black ink and with pearlescent paper. Going to add some sheer pink ribbon to dress these up even more! Very classy, clean and elegant. I received very quick and great service from WPD. Thanks for helping make my wedding day even more special!"
"I was very pleased with the level of customer service on creating these programs for our wedding. Unable to make headers myself, I asked WPD to make headlines and they did and it turned out beautifully. We also love the quality of the paper. We are so excited that this will be the first piece everyone sees on our wedding day."

May 07, 2013, 4:22 PM — A year before Google's futuristic-looking, computerized eyeglasses are expected to hit the market, they have been banned -- again.
A Caesars Palace casino spokesman today told Computerworld that people wearing the Google Glass technology won't be allowed in the casino.
"Gaming regulations prohibit the use of computers or recording devices by persons who are gambling," said Gary Thompson, a spokesman for Caesars, in an email. "Therefore, individuals wearing Google Glass would not be allowed to gamble. If they attempted to do so, would be subject to arrest under various state gaming regulations."
Some gamblers have long tried to use computers and recording devices to gain an unfair advantage at the gaming tables.
"There have been numerous incidents around the country in which people have used computers or cameras secreted elsewhere to keep track of cards in blackjack games," Thompson said. "When they were caught, they went to jail."
Google said every new technology generates new questions, legal and otherwise.
"It's early and we are thinking very carefully about how we design Glass. New technology always raises new issues," said a Google spokesman.
"Our Glass Explorer program, which reaches people from all walks of life, will ensure that our users become active participants in shaping the future of this technology," the spokesman added. The Glass Explorer program is an early adoper program that lets developers and others use the technology, for a price.
Caesars isn't the first business to say "no thanks" to Glass.
Seattle's 5 Points Cafe and Bar in March announced a no Google Glass policy.
In a blog post, the cafe said: "If you're one of the few who are planning on going out and spending your savings on Google Glasses -- what will for sure be a new fad for the fanny-pack wearing, never removing your bluetooth headset-wearing crowd -- plan on removing them before you enter The 5 Point. The 5 Point is officially a No Google Glass zone."
Dan Olds, an analyst at Gabriel Consulting Group, said he's not surprised that the Glass bans are starting so early.
"People see Google Glass as either an invasion of personal privacy, or even a threat to their commercial businesses," he said. "Google Glass is already prompting more thought and discussion about what's private and what isn't. While people are already routinely recorded while going about their business in public places and businesses, they've been mostly oblivious."
All of this is hitting well before Glass is ready to ship.

Tech firms, DOJ agree to bare number of customer data request
Washington, DC, United States (4E) – Five major technology firms and the Department of Justice (DOJ) have agreed to disclose to the public the number of government requests for customer data and how many customer accounts are under surveillance.
Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Facebook and Linked-In announced in a joint statement on Monday that they are pleased with the agreement and have dismissed their lawsuit seeking to disclose how many snooping requests they receive and are required by court order to comply with.
The suit was filed last summer in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) in a bid to let the public know about the volume and types of national security requests the companies receive.
For its part, the DOJ issued a statement Monday justifying the new policy detailed in a letter from Deputy Attorney General James Cole to the five companies. It said the public interest in disclosing the aggregate data now outweighs the national security concerns that required its classification until Monday.
Under the agreement, the technology companies can disclose the volume of requests for national security letters from the FBI or FISC and the number of customer accounts targeted in numbers between zero and 999. The companies have the option to report the two types of requests combined using numbers between zero and 249. The reporting can be made every six months.
Previously, the companies were prohibited from acknowledging that they received such requests. They could only publicized data requests from regular courts and police.
In the lawsuit supported by Apple Inc., the technology companies argued that publishing the aggregate data would reassure their customers that they are not serving as the surveillance arms of the government following revelations by National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblower about the collection of telephone call metadata and other NSA spying activities.

Hazard Education and Awareness Tool (HEAT)
Use it to Develop a Website for Your Community
The HEAT software template is an effective way to deliver information about coastal hazards to the public. Users enter an address into a search box to access the hazard-related information for that location.
The State of Hawai'i offers a good example of HEAT in action. The state uses the site to educate the public about tsunami risk and includes interactive evacuation maps and preparedness information from local authorities.

text: SITTING PRETTY Have a seat. We've got some chatting to do. A chair can come in all shapes, all sizes and all styles. Like a chameleon, this seat support has hundreds of looks… especially if you're browsing our selection (just saying). A chair or two is a great solution for filling empty space like in a reading nook, next to the sofa or even at the end of a bed. You can even try two chairs next to each other in the living room as opposed to one sofa. And around a dining table? Well, that's a no brainer. If you're adding more than one to a room, mixing chairs of different styles and colors is a great idea too (we often prefer it!). The options are nearly endless. So grab a chair, and get started.

Tennessee State Senator Stacey Campfield has introduced a bill barring the mentioning of homosexuality to K-8 students. However, the bill really goes beyond that, as Campfield's bill would require counseling for kids who are gay and require schools to out them to their parents.
Campfield also appears to be an opponent of sex education in general. He makes a comment suggesting that towards the end of this seven-minute interview.
This interview with TMZ, while a bit on the long side, is well worth listening to in its entirety. It points out the distortion of facts, misrepresentation and outright delusions that anti-gay advocates like Campfield are pushing.
Campfield begins the interview by dismissing a person's comments as coming from a "well-known homosexual advocate." Yet Campfield states later that he has nothing against gays. He just doesn't want them pushing it on kids in the schools or down the throats of people like him. The imagery for that is too good to pass up. It would be a sight worth seeing. When someone is this anti-gay, it raises questions at what he is repressing.
Campfield makes the exaggerated statement that AIDS is caught at 50 times the rate for homosexuals as it is for hetersexuals. The fact is that it is 18 times higher. That is still a high number and dangerous but most people who come at this issue rationally look at that and see the high rate as a reason for sex education.
When confronted with the suggestion that it would be good to instruct young people who are gay on how to have safe sex, Campfield comes up with this ridiculous suggestion:
"You know, you could say the same thing about kids who are shooting heroin. We need to show them the best ways to shoot up. No, we don't. Why do we have to hypersexualize little children? Why can't we just let little kids be little kids for a while?"
Seventh and Eighth graders are children, but kindergartners are little children. By middle school, kids are developing into adults. Campfield must be having trouble figuring puberty out to make the argument he did. The rise of sexual feelings is confusing for even straight kids, much less gay ones. Keeping their minds in the dark about sex makes problems.
According to Campfield's twisted world, showing kids how to use a condom is like loading a syringe and offering them to get high on heroin. Here is the linchpin of the anti-gay argument: Let's make things as extreme and ridiculous as possible and maybe our craziness will rub off and taint gays and lesbians in the eyes of heterosexuals.
When Campfield is reminded that AIDS is prevalent in Africa among heterosexuals, he comes up with the idea that is because Africans run around committing sodomy more so than anywhere else in the world. Being against gay civil rights is not enough for Campfield. He needed to add a little racism into his homophobia.
Campfield makes the often-distorted comment that homosexuality is not genetic. His argument is that there isn't a gay gene. First, no one has mapped out how the entire human genome operates in all its subtlities. Second, there doesn't have to be a single gene to make something genetic, whether that is homosexuality, lying or having a generally happy demeanor. Real research has found genetic, hormonal, and environmental influences as a cause for homosexuality. That fits for heterosexuality too. Campfield may be surprised to find that there isn't a heterosexual gene either. Still to be determined is if being a homophobe is genetic or environmental. My hunch is that it goes hand in hand with being an idiot, at least one like Campfield who can't get his facts straight.

Before & After: DIY Color-Block Planters
East Coast Creative
Pretty garden pots make any outdoor space that much more lovely, but those little pots can be mighty pricey. That's why I love this type of DIY project; it takes standard (and very affordable) plastic planters and turns them into something wonderful.
With a little time and a little spray paint, Monica and Jess from East Coast Creative have created modern color-block planters that add elegance and visual interest for a fraction of the cost of decorative planters. The possibilities for color combinations are endless, too!
Head on over to East Coast Creative for the full tutorial and more pictures of the final products.

Simple and nice!
What an upgrade! I am going to do this. These are just what my front step needs.
I think I will try these! My pots are in good shape but have faded...and I am too cheap to replace something that works.
Um, is that a boxwood in the top planter? That's probably not really an appropriate plant for a 6 inch pot.
So cool!
Love the colors!

Your Dock preferences are in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist where ~/ is Unix shorthand for your home folder.

Are you aware that when the free disk space on an Mac OS (Extended) drive falls below 15% you are in significant danger of irreparable file system damage? You need to free up a lot of disk space quickly. Depending on several factors OS X can quickly use up 3 GB of disk space in swapfiles, log files, archived log files, etc, all of which are invisible files. If your Mac is not awake 24x7 you need to get something like Cocktail or Onyx and run it at least weekly to clean out the various OS X files that accumulate.
Actually it sounds as if it is time for you to invest in a larger HD.

Brain abnormalities seen on scans of adults with a gene mutation linked to Alzheimer's disease have been found in brain scans of newborns with the same mutation, suggesting risk for the disease may develop in the womb for some, a study found.
Researchers at the University of North Carolina used an MRI to scan the brains of 272 newborns. The newborns also received a blood test to detect gene mutations that have been linked to conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's.

Family doesn't need to be standing

The world doesn't need another hole
And neither does my brain..
Faded.. But still of a nice shade
If water splashes on my figure
Ill probably fade away
But ill say its a good day

SHL (Scandinavian Health Ltd.) is the world's largest privately-owned designer, developer and supplier of advanced drug delivery devices.
Auto Injectors and Pen Injectors
SHL manufactures an extensive range of auto injectors and pen injectors that re-define the self-injection process by making them simple, safe and reliable. Their auto injectors are designed to make administrating drugs easier and more consistent than manual injections, improving patient compliance and ensuring successful therapy delivery. More recently developed auto injectors include features such as:
- Enhanced safety
- Intuitive use and ergonomic design
- Reduced number of components
- Two-step or three-step operation
- Compact design
- Inter-lock systems with sequential control and non-sequential control
- Ability to accommodate range of viscosities
Design Expertise for Drug Delivery DevicesAuto Injectors and Pen Injectors
SHL's concept development and innovative design takes place at their design centers in Sweden and the US, where experienced engineers develop product enhancements and breakthrough drug delivery solutions.
Significant investment in R&D over the past ten years has enhanced their broad pipeline of 'next generation' drug delivery devices. These include a range of disposable and reusable auto injectors and/or pen injectors with fixed or variable dosing, enhanced precision and the ability to accommodate high viscosities.
Developing these drug delivery devices in-house allows SHL to customise existing devices in their pipeline or develop completely new devices based on the unique customer requirements.
Regulatory Knowledge and Experience for Auto Injectors and Pen Injectors
SHL complies with extensive regulations regarding safety, efficacy and overall quality of their products, which have 510(k) clearance according to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
SHL is also subject to government regulations, most notably from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States.
Typically, it is their pharmaceutical partners who undertake the application of regulatory approval for their finished injection devices, however, SHL understand that this process is lengthy, expensive, and subject to unanticipated delays. Therefore, the leaders in Aunto and Pen Injector manufacturing offer customers full support during the application process via a team of regulatory experts who are familiar with the stringent accreditation processes in various countries.
SHL have successfully assisted customers in obtaining regulatory approval in North America, Europe and Asia. For their US customers, they will support New Drug Applications (NDA) or Biologic License Applications (BLA) with the FDA as their established 510(k) clearance will help ease this process. SHL is also recognised by the Japanese Minister of Health, Labor, and Welfare (MHLW)as an Accredited Foreign Manufacturer (AFM) and their manufacturing facilities comply with Ministerial Ordinance No. 169.
Beyond market clearance, SHL complies with all applicable general controls. This includes establishment registration, device listing, post-market surveillance, medical device reporting and compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulations (21CFR 820).
In-house drug delivery device manufacturing capabilities
To maximize quality control during the manufacturing process of drug delivery devices such as auto injectors and pen injectors, SHL have invested heavily over the years in bringing vital capabilities in-house, ensuring every step can be monitored and needed adjustments made in a timely manner. Some capabilities include:
- Tooling: advanced in-house tooling centre for drug delivery devices
- Molding: extensive range of molding solutions
- Automation: design and build customized assembly and testing equipment
- Assembly: semi-automatic and fully-automatic assembly solutions
- Final Packaging and Assembly: Final assembly, labeling and packaging services for drug delivery devices
With such a range of capabilities available in-house, SHL helps address the time-to-market issue that customers often face and truly becomes a one-stop shop.

Here's a great way to get rid of any lingering winter colds or flues before spring begins a spicy vinegar tincture. It's a great cold remedy.
The spicy herbs in this mixture are great for opening sinuses and clearing mucus congestion.
Apple cider vinegar itself has a long history of use as a healing elixir. Being both antibiotic and antiseptic in helps neutralize toxins in the body.
Make up a batch of this cold remedy vinegar and keep it in a cool dark place for as long as 2 years. When you're feeling sick pull it out and take ½ to 1 teaspoon every hour to aid your healing process.
What's great about this cold remedy is that everything can be bought in any supermarket.
Are you ready for the cold remedy?
To make 2 cups of vinegar tincture you will need for this cold remedy:
To make this cold remedy, mince the onion and garlic and put in a 1 pint jar.
Grate the ginger and horseradish and add them to the jar.
Add the mustard seeds, peppercorns and chilies. Stir them all together.
Pour vinegar over the mixture to fill the jar. There should be about 1 inch of liquid space above the other ingredients. Cap with a plastic lid (since the vinegar will corrode a metal lid). Let the mixture sit for 2 weeks shaking the bottle daily to mix the herbs and the liquid.
After two weeks, strain the mixture using cheesecloth so that you can squeeze the herbs to extract all of the liquid.
Add the 1/3 cup of honey to help preserve your mixture. Pour into a clean bottle, and label and date it before storing it away in your cupboard.
IMPORTANT: Use a plastic lid OR a piece of plastic bag under a metal lid. The vinegar reacts to metal.
About the herbs in this cold remedy vinegar....
Each of the herbs used in the mixture has their own healing qualities, and this month on HerbMentor, our membership website we are featuring garlic as our herb of the month, so I'm going to highlight it here.
Herbalist Stephen Buhner writes, " No other herb comes close to the multiple system actions of garlic, its antibiotic activity, and its immune-potentiating power."
Indeed, garlic is antibacterial, antiviral, antiseptic, antiparasitic, antifungal, and immune-stimulating. Garlic in itself is an amazing cold remedy.
Best used fresh and raw, bruising or crushing a glove of garlic releases allicin, the compound most responsible for its antibiotic action.
Most of us are not to keen on eating raw cloves of garlic, so this vinegar gives us an alternative way to get the healing power of garlic into our bodies.
This is a wonderful cold remedy to have on hand for when you feel something coming on or have the cold.
We have an eBook, videos, and cold remedy instructional audios on HerbMentor.com.

She's done it again! Sally Fitzgibbons gets her second consecutive tour victory in winning the Fiji Pro!
The waves at Cloudbreak might have been the best surfing conditions the women have ever seen during competition, where 8-10-foot waves set the stage for some incredible surfing.
After nailing one of the best barrels in the semifinals scoring a near perfect 9.07, Sally advanced to the finals to join fellow ROXY surfer Stephanie.
It was a tight final against Stephanie, surfing in challenging conditions at Cloudbreak. Ultimately, Sally's 9.0 score in the finals beat Stephanie's score of 8.73.
"Winning at Cloudbreak is such an awesome feeling", she said. "You get smashed across the reef but you have to pick yourself up and get going again."
Next stop on the Women's World Tour is Huntington Beach for the US Open of Surfing on June 27-July 3rd! We'll see you there!

What: Thomas Friedman, part of George T. Hunter Lecture Series
Where: Tivoli Theater, downtown Chattanooga
When: 7 p.m. Tuesday
Cost: Free
Source: Benwood Foundation
Three-time Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman is set to speak Tuesday at the Tivoli Theatre, and organizers expect a large local reception, especially on the heels of the election.
More than 1,000 people are likely to attend, said Amy Carmichael, a spokeswoman for the event.
"It's pretty timely," she said. "He'll have a lot to say about the election."
The visit, which is part of the George T. Hunter Lecture Series, is funded by the Benwood Foundation and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. The event is free and open to the public. Friedman's speech will begin at 7 p.m., but a line is expected to form long before then.
Friedman, a former international reporter, will speak about his most recent book, "That Used To Be Us: How America Fell Behind in the World It Invented and How We Can Come Back."
His popular other books include, "The World is Flat" and "Hot, Flat and Crowded," which advocates for clean energy and green technology industries. In his column last week, he chastised the Republican Party.
"The Republican Party today needs to have a real heart-to-heart with itself," he wrote in Wednesday's New York Times. "The GOP has lost two presidential elections in a row because it forced its candidate to run so far to the loony right to get through the primaries, dominated by its ultraconservative base, that he could not get close enough back to the center to carry the national election."
Lori Quillen, community program director for the Benwood Foundation, said she hopes people who come to hear Friedman will learn more about ideas for education and economic reforms that could help the U.S. regain its prowess.
"We try to get a range of speakers that can represent different views," said Quillen. "Coming the week after the election, I am sure he will have comments about what he will like to see with the next four years of Obama's administration."
Two more speakers will follow Friedman in this year's lecture series. MacArthur Fellow Will Allen will speak on arts and culture on Feb. 26, and National Public Radio's "This American Life" host Ira Glass will speak on April 7.

Terrence Malick is an American filmmaker who has only made six films over the course of a forty-year career. And each one of those has been hailed as a masterpiece.He made his debut in 1973 with Badlands, about teenagers on a cross-country killing spree. He followed that up in 1978 with Days of Heaven, an evocative, dream-like portrait of a wheat farm in the early 20th century America.He then took a twenty-year break from the film industry, spending a great deal of time in Paris and traveling. During that time he was rumored to have projects in the works, but nothing materialized until the late 1990s when he went into production on The Thin Red Line, an adaptation of James Jones's novel about the battle of Guadalcanal. Critics and audiences didn't know quite what to make of it when it was released (it didn't help that it was released the same time as the more mainstream Saving Private Ryan), but it was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including two for Malick, as Best Director and for his screenplay.For a while it looked as if Malick might be going back into hibernation, but he returned in 2005 with The New World, a portrait of John Smith and Pocahontas. Like The Thin Red Line before it, The New World baffled audiences and critics when it was initially released, but was since acclaimed by critics as one of the best films of the 2000s.Six years later, Malick released his fifth film, The Tree of Life, a film about three boys growing up in 1950s Texas, which featured a much-discussed sequence involving the creation of the universe. It was met with critical acclaim on its release, and won the Palme D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.In 2012, Malick released To The Wonder, a film about a couple who visit Oklahoma. The film was met with cheers and boos at the Venice Film Festival, although later reviews have been more positive.
Tropes that describe Malick and his films:

Posted by Jordan Reabold on 02/03 at 11:17 AM
Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and love is certainly in the air at Harrison's—love for local food, that is! Harrison Schailey, owner of Harrison's Wine Grill on E. College Ave, came all the way from California as an organic farmer, hoping to bring some Left Coast influence to State College when he opened the restaurant. "After a while, I realized people didn't go for that."
What Harrison found was that people didn't want a taste of California—they wanted a taste of State College. And why wouldn't they? With the abundance of farms around the area offering a variety of options, it would be a shame not to take advantage. "It just made sense," he says.
Of course, the winter climate here in Central Pennsylvania is nothing like California, but Mr. Harrison has adapted. When it comes to vegetables especially, winter takes a toll on local produce. "It is difficult during the winter, especially now that it's been so cold, but we get what's available."
Among the list of vegetables are turnips, potatoes, carrots, and butternut squash. "What we always want are greens," Harrison explained, who noted that Tait Farm supplies his restaurant with greens like lettuce, though lately it's been rather difficult due to the extremely low temperatures.
Not only does Harrison's use locally grown fruits and vegetables, but locally raised meats and locally made pasta, cheese, and yogurt as well. When it comes to livestock, Harrison explains the 'tip to toe' method of supplying meat to his restaurant. "Meat is more difficult to work with because you run out easily."
Therefore, he receives a steer from a local farm, slaughtered just for use at Harrison's, and all parts of the meat are used—hence, 'tip to toe'. For two years, Harrison's has been supplying meat this way, and it seems to be preferred by Mr. Harrison himself. "This way," he says, "we have the freedom to make different cuts."
Harrison's fresh and local greens and mushrooms salad bring a hint of spring to our harsh Happy Valley winter
Yogurt, on the other hand, comes from Spring Hill Farm, while cheese comes from Goot Essa. "Goat cheese is what I get, but I'm hoping soon they'll make a fresh mozzarella," Harrison said.
In my opinion, Harrison's has one of the most unique menus I've seen, especially here in State College. For one thing, it's always changing. "We alter the basic menu about four times a year," Harrison said.
The section of the menu featuring seasonal local items, however, changes more often due to items that cannot be supplied year round. My favorite aspect of the menu is the monthly theme. Each month, Harrison's alters the menu and dedicates it to particular seasons, traditions, and of course, local foods. "January is healthy month," begins Mr. Harrison. "You know, after the holidays people try to get back on track, and we like to help them do that."
Summertime means seafood at Harrison's, then it's time for harvest in August, and Octoberfest in the fall.
If you're looking for a place to go for Valentine's Day, February is Harrison's rustic Italian month—what could be more romantic? However, Mr. Harrison keeps things respectable around this time of year. "Of course, come in on Valentine's Day! But we're not going to give you a heart-shaped steak," he says with a smile. "We're not a chain."
It is clear that Mr. Harrison takes his work very seriously, and Harrison's Wine Grill, from the menu to the atmosphere itself, makes it obvious. "Local tastes better," he simply states. "And it's good economically. I like to support local vendors and keep money in the area."
While he incorporates local items in his menu as much as possible, his goal is to someday serve food that is entirely local. "It's called Farm to Table, and that's exactly what it means."
Not to mention, being that he was previously an organic farmer, he wishes to grow a garden solely for the purpose of supplying his restaurant with the freshest food possible. And yet, his aspirations don't stop there. "I'd like to have a restaurant that's high in sustainability," he declares, noting that he hopes to include solar power and the process of saving rainwater as a way to make his restaurant more sustainable.
The future of Harrison's is definitely a bright one, and Mr. Harrison seems to have the perfect incentive to make it happen. To put it simply, he states, "We're about the food."
Harrison's Buy Fresh Buy Local menu is designed "with health and sustainability in mind"

I made this recipe for my family 11 years ago for Christmas. The BEST crab I've ever had (and I've had a lot). My family has asked me to make it over and over and I could never find the magazine issue again. I did a search today and can't believe I found it. I'll have a happy family this Christmas. Thank you!! It's so simple to make and oh so yummy. I'll serve it with white wine and plenty of sour dough bread.

September 18th, 2012 - Ogilvy Brussels is launching worldwide an awareness campaign for Alzheimer's Disease International in support of World's Alzheimer's Day on Friday September 21st.
The purpose of the campaign is to make people aware of how it feels to have to live with Alzheimer's Disease by wiping out all memories of Facebook users for one day. How ? By donating their timeline to the international Alzheimer association.
Ogilvy Brussels developed a website where you can download an application. This application activates itself on September 21st and erases all memories from your virtual Facebook timeline on this day : pictures, status, videos, friends, family, … Everything will disappear for one day from your timeline. Instead a message will appear saying 'Imagine your life without memories. For 36 million people living with Alzheimer's disease, this is reality.' The website allows to share your support among friends via Facebook, Twitter and Google+.
To reinforce the message, we made a viral movie with the help of Poetry In Motion production company and the actresses Gilda De Bal and Leen Diependaele. Reinhard van Bergen - Das Pop was in charge of the music.

Money in a Sovereign Quebec
AbstractIn this paper it is argued that a sovereign Quebec would be unable to continue using the Canadian dollar as its currency. Companies with large investments in Quebec should thus anticipate that if Quebec separates , a lasting monetary union with Canada would be practically impossible.

Berkeley Rep audiences give Mike Daisey some cash
At the end of every performance of "The Last Cargo Cult" at Berkeley Rep, monologist Mike Daisey invited the audience to return to him some of the cash that had been handed out at the beginning of the show.
As members of the audience had walked in, they had been handed crisp $1, $5, $10, $20 or $100 bills.
The money represented what Berkeley Rep had paid him for each performance. Daisey challenged the audience to decide how much his show was worth. They were informed they could keep the money, give it back, or even add a little extra. … Continue reading »
Mike Daisey recounts our obsession with cash
At the end of Mike Daisey's solo show "The Last Cargo Cult," now playing at Berkeley Rep, all I could do was sit back and gape.
For more than two hours I had watched Daisey shout, scream, murmur, and sweat as he spun a tale about the mysteries of a South Pacific island and the mysterious devotion Westerners have to cash. With little more than a few sheets of notes, a glass of water, a table, a handkerchief to wipe off his brow, and a backdrop of dozens of cardboard boxes featuring every conceivable type of consumer product, Daisey had managed to keep the audience captivated.
Starting with the chilling tale of how he almost died in a island puddle-hopper, and continuing through with stories of his (almost) middle class childhood in Maine, his rude awakening as a freshmen in college that some of his classmates had a lot cooler gadgets than he would ever be able to afford, and on to tales of our obsession with objects, Daisey was a force-field, drawing the audience further and further into his orbit.
Granted, not all the stories he told were engrossing. I didn't really care for his recounting of the nine-hour dance pageant performed in the honor of one John Frum on the island of Vanuatu. And while he tries to make "The Last Cargo Cult," a piece that calls into question the centrality of possessions and the willingness of Americans to bow to the mighty dollar, he doesn't quite succeed. Yet I had a very good time going along for the ride.

i torture animals......
4x2 ................. Wham ! ................. Job Done !
this happened to me before. since then I don't allow anyone I know to use those glue trays for catching anything but flies.

I remember hearing him squeaking.. when i checked, i could see that it was just a baby and his entire lower half was stuck in the glue. Would have done the same and been just as horrified by the sight of an adult mouse or rat. It was so heartbreaking. The landlord had placed the traps and so I called him to come and remove the mouse, saying he must kill it fast so it won't suffer any more. After 20 min he still hadn't shown up but I couldn't stand the idea of this poor creature suffering any longer.

I placed the trap with the mouse inside a bag and another bag and another bag,. quickly so he wouldn't be scared for too long. .. and then i placed a cardboard box that i had flattened out over the mouse and hit him with a heavy ob<x>ject several times until I was sure he was dead.

Once they get stuck in that glue, they can't be saved. We got mice after a church moved in below us. Probably from all the food they would leave laying around or in their trash while they were gone every other day. I hated to do it but I couldn't allow him any additional suffering.

It's such a sad situation.
Terribly cruel a sticky board. Why kill it at all? Mice are friendly animals and known to have feelings and emotions such as being very scared and feeling pain.

Competitions are always meant to be won; that's been the onus for everybody who has ever laced up a pair of racing shoes to compete in off-road motorcycle racing.
So when you've decided that you're 100% serious about winning off-road bike races, there's only one company that you look for to satisfy your lust for competition: Yamaha .
Built on a history that includes championships in motocross and enduro races, Yamaha offers the most competitive engine and chassis packages, plus class-leading technologies and legendary build quality.
Part of Yamaha's championship DNA is building bikes for all types of people, even for the young 9 to 14-year old kids that want to start breaking into the scene. For this particular instance, that bike is the YZ85, born from the company's award-winning YZ competition bikes.
The YZ85 is the ideal bike for the up-and-comers of the scene. It's got tremendous performance capabilities mixed in with superior handling to allow even the greenest of drivers to warm up to the bike in no time.
Find out more about the Yamaha YZ85 after the jump.
To accommodate the market it's catering to, Yamaha decided to give the YZ85 a stunning yet scaled-down bodywork of one of the company's large-capacity YZ models. Yamaha used polypropylene for a lot of the materials in the bike, including the fenders, side panels, and the fuel tank. This was done to account for the lightweight nature of the YZ85 while also paying clear attention to keeping it as tough and sturdy as possible. For the tires, Yamaha is offering a number of options for youth riders, including standard wheel and large-wheel options. For the standard YZ85, there's a 17" front wheel and a 14" rear wheel, while the large-wheel YZ85LW carries a 19" front wheel and a 16" rear wheel.
Looks can very well be deceiving; the 2011 Yamaha YZ85 has the performance capabilities to be a contender in the ranks. A liquid-cooled, 85cc engine has been tuned to deliver plenty of free-revving performance for the kind of acceleration that not only wins races, but also championships. The engine is then mated to a close-ratio six-speed gearbox which, with the adjustable suspension up front and out back, is the kind of recipe you want for your kid's off-road bike. The radiator is lightweight and has large cores and louvers with the water pump coming in a special cast aluminum impeller for maximum cooling efficiency. To aid in the bike's performance capabilities, the YZ85's engine comes with a specially-designed expansion chamber exhaust.
Brakes and Suspension
The lightweight suspension of the YZ85/LW is built to the same advanced specification as that of the company's larger MXGP-winning racers, delivering the kind of unbelievable handling and precision steering reserved for only the best of its kind on the market. The front suspension is handled by a 36mm Kayaba inverted cartridge fork with a fully adjustable compression and rebound dampening. Meanwhile, the rear comes with a Kayaba shock providing 11.1" of travel with a fully adjustable compression. Another key element of the YZ85 is its braking capabilities. For the new model, Yamaha put in one of the best set-ups in the class: a 220 mm front disc that generates strong, controllable and progressive braking combined with a 190 mm rear disc that provides reliable stopping power at the rear end.
Here in the US, the 2011 Yamaha YZ85 is currently available at the cost of $3,850.

While it took a bit to get used to the top-end bias, he has adapted well to the engine characteristics. The roomy ergos fit him well and allow a little room to grow. He really likes jumping the YZ and is very impressed with how well it soaks up any hard landings.
