Sosiego, Spanish for Peace and Tranquility, is just that for those who have stayed in this nicely located Mediterranean Revival home in Colonial Heights including The Discovery Channel and ABC's 20/20 both of which have used Sosiego for shoots.The property is just minutes to Palm Beach and the beaches of the Atlantic, minutes to the airport, the interstate and neighbouring towns such as Delray, Lake Worth, Boca Raton and Jupiter. This gem is beautifully landscaped. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is Wi-Fi and a Smart TV. Sleekly and stylishly furnished throughout; quiet and peaceful in and out of doors. The very private salt water pool invites all to enjoy its soothing waters as does the hot and cold water private al fresco shower poolside. Guests say the salt pool is so great and the house so comfortable that they forget about going to the beach preferring to genuinely relax and enjoy being 'at home'. The street is quiet and there are places to eat nearby; eat in and takeaway. We have a little guidebook which includes that sort of information; directions to the beach, City Place, Worth Avenue, along with information about many other places to visit in the area and further afield including Disney, the Bok Tower at Lake Wales, Vizcaya, South Beach and many other places of interest. Sosiego is ideal for a single couple, two couples or a small family. All the amenities one can expect in a fine home are at Sosiego. Peace and Tranquility and very private.
Seldom in life is there an experience or a facility where every detail has been considered and addressed well. Such is the case with this house. The photos are accurate. The owners helpful. West Palm Beach is great. We spent much of the week attending spring training baseball gamess of the St Louis Cardinals in nearby Jupiter, with a day off to visit Lion County Safari. The backyard saltwater pool is the crowning jewel of the house. Very private, surrounded by seating venues and even an outdoor freshwater shower. We will return to these owners.
In a word, perfect. The house is close to everything but when you sit around the pool, complete privacy. Lee didn't overlook a thing. From beautiful furnishings to all the little stuff like beach towels and coffee. And the way the yard was laid out, there were comfortable beach chairs in every corner so you can catch/avoid the sun from every angle.
If you're lazy, there's a cute little breakfast place literally across the street.
City Diner a short drive north on S. Dixie also terrific. Downtown WPB, maybe 10 minutes.
To celebrate, outstanding restaurant Avocado Grill. (Order the lamb sliders)
Frankly, only negative at Sosiego was having to leave. Thanks again Lee.
Mitch and Lauren
Our stay at the Lee Jameson-Krampp home was superb from start to finish. The home is decorated beautifully with water themes, and the flow of the space is open and inviting. Perfect size for casual entertaining. The pool takes the experience over the top. It's surrounded by lush, tropical plants and trees. All the poolside seating, pool floaters, and towels are provided. This is a vacation home that really makes your stay a vacation.
My family of 4 enjoyed our stay at this quaint property. The home is well equipped with all the little incidentals you need while on vacation, and which made our stay more comfortable. Actually looks just like the pictures! The property was clean and well maintained and the homeowner was very quick to respond to any questions we had.
I stayed at Sosiego with my sister and her family for 5 nights and it was absolutely perfect. Lee and David were so gracious and helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was gorgeous and the bed super comfy. Would absolutely stay there again!
Love the home . Perfect for a small family. The owners were very helpful!!
Close to city center which was important to us.

Bug Description
When I'm setting the capslock key to switch between keyboard layouts in the Ubuntu Preferences-
Users who don't know that might press "shift+capslock" by accident, and then will be stuck with capslock on.
There should be a clear notification in the spirit of "You chose capslock to switch between keyboard layouts. This means that now shift+capslock would turn the capslock state on and off", after the user chose "capslock" as the key to switch keyboard layouts.
Chris Wilson (notgary) wrote : | #1 |
I think the core issue here is that there is no mechanism by which the user can easily know the state of the capslock. I think the following solutions would rectify this:
- Notify the user via an Application Indicator that the capslock has either been enabled of disabled.
- Have an icon appear in the panel when the capclock has been enabled, in the same way that the key icon appears when root privileges have been given.
Also, since this is a feature request, I am invalidating this as a paper cut.

It is very relevant for the keyboard option (you can get to them by right clicking the indicator application), where it should clearly state something like "Warning, setting capslock to switch keyboard layouts will make shift+Capslock to turn on the capslock".
So please add it as relevant to the keyboard layout preferences.

Carnival is introducing faster and cheaper internet and social media packages on its ships based in Australia - Carnival Legend and Carnival Spirit.
Available from May, the improved internet access offers "significantly increased" bandwidth and speed, with "value package" (AU$ 30 per day) for unlimited access to the web and faster "premium package" (AU$ 50 per day), which allows vacationers to make Skype video calls to family and friends.
Image: cruisedeals.expert
The new social media package offers unlimited access to sites like Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter, from AU$ 15 per day. Additional discounted plans are available for the entire sailing.
Jennifer Vandekreeke, Carnival Cruise Line Vice President Australia, said the line wanted to make it easier for its guests to share their holiday with friends, given the role that social media now plays in people's lives, particularly when travelling. Vandekreeke shared:
"Access to flexible and affordable internet is really important for many of our guests. We know that they want to keep in touch with their friends and families and they also want to keep them posted on how much fun they're having at sea.
"With this in mind we've tailored our packages to focus on the social media sites and apps that our guests use most and ramped up our bandwidth to give our guests unprecedented internet access at sea, which means they can now upload as many selfies as they like and easily check in to all the fantastic ports they visit during their cruise."
The new packages follow the last year's launch of Carnival's Selfies at Sea app. Available for download free of charge at Android and Apple stores, the app collates a series of photos taken onboard into a mini-movie which to be shared on social media channels.

Visitor Reviews of Jennette's Pier
"I was at Jennets pier, paid my 12 dollars to fish and was on the end of the pier. I agree it is partitioned off for pin rigs etc. But on Sunday July 22 2012 my cousin and I were at the end of the pier fishing and some local big shot comes up and says you got to move your poles out of the way this is just for pin fishing in a rude manner. I went to the front desk and asked if he can just go out there and move other peoples poles out of the way and proclaim his right to be where other people were fishing they did not know the rules. then security came out at my request and started talking and joking with the rude person. I will recommend anyone that likes to fish at the end of the pier to go to another that when you pay you can fish where you find a spot so some local big shot cant move you out of the way I will never go back to Jennets pier and will tell all my friends and relatives not to patronise that pier. they get a bad reputation from me also my cousin is a stage 4 cancer patient and had to listen to that rude jerk. Do not go to Jennets pier."

Talks on Northern Ireland's future were set to continue today in an attempt to break a deadlock in negotiations which has lasted for several weeks.
With five Belfast parties locked in intensive talks chaired by former US diplomat Richard Haass, Washington urged compromise from all sides, warning negotiations were "at a critical juncture".
Dr Haass had insisted that Monday was his last day of talks, saying he would fly back to the US on Tuesday, but it was agreed to meet again early Tuesday morning when negotiators will decide whether to sign off on a final deal.
Tonight, he was making a final push for a breakthrough on how to regulate contentious marching and flag-flying, and on how to deal with issues arising from Northern Ireland's violent past.
Earlier, he circulated to the parties his sixth set of draft proposals, which he described as "a remarkable opportunity to make bold choices". He has indicated that he has been pleasantly surprised by the amount of progress on marching and on legacy issues, but details remained to be nailed down on how the often differing demands from victims' families might be addressed.
The Northern Ireland Secretary, Theresa Villiers, said she was encouraged about the prospects for agreement though some key issues had yet to be resolved.
Dr Haass and the parties have already effectively admitted defeat on how to regulate the flying of flags, the third issue he was called in to tackle. This will now be referred to a new commission which will not report for months.
Although this was a setback for the Haass initiative, which was launched jointly by the Democratic Unionist and Sinn Féin parties, most have been impressed by the amount of progress which has been made.
Although differences between the parties were confirmed to be deep, there were no walk-outs and no particularly angry exchanges.
The leading Sinn Féin negotiator, Gerry Kelly, said recently that his party was hopeful a deal could be done. "These issues will not go away so now is the time to deal with them. There are issues that can be sorted if the political will is there," he added. Sinn Féin has also said that failure to secure agreement would be "a humiliation".
Meanwhile, the Unionist party leader, Mike Nesbitt, said the talks were "80 to 90 per cent over the line".
All sides are aware that any agreement will be put to the test by extreme elements, particularly on the loyalist side, which places marching and flag-flying above almost all other considerations.
It is proposed to replace the Parades Commission, which loyalist marching groups refuse to recognise, with a new body called the Office for Parades, Select Commemorations and Related Protests.
Some in the working-class loyalist grassroots are highly critical of the unionist political parties, accusing their leaders of neglecting their interests.

Dictionary Terms Explained
- Protection, mystery, transformation
As a colour, black reflects no light in the visible spectrum, which is why itÆs often had a strong association with the unknown, with magic and mystery.
Although black can be viewed as a dark, negative and forbidding colour, it also has very positive meanings too. Due to its deep, black and empty look, black can be viewed as restful and something which can transform ideas or possibilities. For example, used in meditations, you can drift into the black emptiness and emerge once more full of hope and possibility.
If you enjoy working with gemstones and crystals, then the black stones, such as jet, onyx, obsidian and black tourmaline, are excellent as grounding stones. They also have protective energies and can be used to help clear negativity and bad energy.
In the Western world, black is the colour of funerals, as people wear black and use black hearses to transport coffins. The commonly associated garb of witches is a black cloak, accompanied by a black cauldron, out of which they conjured up magic and mystery. For Native Americans, black was viewed in favourable terms, as it was the colour of the earth, out of which life and crops grow.
When worn as a colour, black can generate a protective feel, helping you blend into the crowd, yet when coupled with white for formal attire, it can also help create an air of elegance and sophistication.
Pentacle or Pentagram
- Protection, communication with spirit world, magic
The pentagram was considered by the ancient Greeks and medieval astrologers to have supernatural properties and to be a protective symbol. Often in the past people would mark their doors with pentagrams to ward off evil witchcraft and spirits.
In good magic today (with the top pointed upwards) it is often used as a symbol to support transmission and communication with the spirit world. Its five points are often seen to represent the four classic elements of earth, water, air and fire joining with the fifth element of spirit to create life. A five-pointed star (pentagram) with a circle around it is referred to as a pentacle. This circle represents sacred space in which the fifth element of spirit controls the four earthly elements.
Also in the legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight a pentacle adorns his shield representing the five knightly virtues of generosity, courtesy, chastity, brotherly love and piety.
Tarot Cards
The Tarot is a specific system that has 78 cards in total. There are 4 suits (referred to as the minor arcana) and 22 other cards (referred to as the major arcana). Each card represents a specific energy. And each card, through the picture on the card, is trying to help you to feel the specific energy of that card. The reason there are so many different kinds of Tarot decks is that Different Tarot decks may present this energy in different pictorial form. We have lots of articles on Tarot.

Specificity / Sensitivity
Filamin C Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total filamin C protein.
Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology: MonkeySource / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human filamin C protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Filamins are a family of dimeric actin binding proteins that function as structural components of cell adhesion sites. They also serve as a scaffold for subcellular targeting of signaling molecules (1). The actin binding domain (α-actinin domain) located at the amino terminus is followed by as many as 24 tandem repeats of about 96 residues and the dimerization domain is located at the carboxy terminus. In addition to actin filaments, filamins associate with other structural and signaling molecules such as β-integrins, Rho/Rac/Cdc42, PKC and the insulin receptor, primarily through the carboxy-terminal dimerization domain (1-3). Filamin A, the most abundant, and filamin B are widely expressed isoforms, while filamin C is predominantly expressed in muscle (1). Filamin A is phosphorylated by PAK1 at Ser2152, which is required for PAK1-mediated actin cytoskeleton reorganization (4).

Before I start with the post, I wanted to tell you that in this updated draft-along there will be only one post about drafting as such. Most of the posts will cover measurements and their effect on the fit. I am doing it because I believe that it is possible to eliminate most of the fitting problems before they even arise. I want to explain the relation between measurements, simple drafting concepts and the fit, so you can apply them in your projects.
Many home sewers, including me, consider fitting as the most challenging part of the sewing adventure. Understanding the logic of each drafting step is key to understanding fitting as well. Critical thinking is not particularly addressed in pattern-drafting education. I want to change it.
To achieve this I divided the measurement steps into several posts, and for today's draft-along post I will focus on one essential measurement, hip circumference. Why? Because we create first fitting problems by relying on measuring instructions designed for ready-to-wear. However, they don't measure for our bodies, right? Take the classic 'Patternmaking for Fashion Design', for example: "Measure widest area with tape parallel with floor," it says.
Now, let's look at Liz and Kate.
Why does it all matter? Let's imagine a straight skirt as a cylinder, before it is shaped at the waist. And, let's agree that we are not working with stretch fabrics. To fit correctly, the cylinder has to fall straight from all protruding parts of the lower body.
I highlighted them in red on pictures. If we make the cylinder as wide as Liz's or Kate's true circumference around buttocks, we won't be able to fit their tummies correctly.
Since for both of them tummy (or mid-hip) circumference is less than hip circumference, the cylinder is wide enough to accommodate tummy area. However, the problem is that the tummy is protruding in the front, while the buttocks are protruding in the back. For this reason, following any known physical laws, the cylinder must distort. Below, you see what happens to the side seam. And the purple lines indicate possible drag lines that are usually visible when there is a fit issue I described.
The idea is that fabric will always be pulled toward protruding parts on your body if there is not enough width. Side seam serves as a great indicator of a fit issue, if hip circumference is too small: the seam will be pulled toward the front at the top, and toward the back in the middle. Because of the overall distortion, the hem won't hang parallel to the floor as well.
Now, you may ask, a standard dress form also has a slightly protruding tummy. How do the standard pattern-drafting methods go around it? The answer is simple: ease. They add ease to hip circumference, which compensates for this little extra volume in the front of a 'standard' body. If your shape is different, forget the ease altogether, you need to figure out how to measure your hips/buttocks taking into account your tummy and, possibly, hips and thighs.
Yes, hips. To make the matter even more complicated, let's talk about your hips. Look at your body and observe whether the widest hip portion is on the same level as the most protruding part of your buttocks. Mine are on different levels. Hips are getting wider lower than my buttocks, Liz has a similar issue. It does affect the fit as well, but can be addressed by proper shaping of the side seam, and measuring hip circumference using a custom made hip measuring band.
Prepare a strip of poster paper long enough to allow you to wrap it around your hips (take appr. 1,5 of your hip circumference), and wide enough to go from your waist to 10cm (4") lower than your hip line (not buttocks).
Now, from one end of your strip measure the value of your true hip circumference, and make a vertical line. From there on, add up to thirty (30) parallel lines every centimetre, and mark the values.
Your band is ready.
Now, grab two paper clips and wrap the 'band' around your hips in front of a mirror. Secure the top and the lower edges with paper clips as soon as the cylinder feels snug and falls straight, perpendicular to the floor. The open vertical edge of the cylinder should be aligned with one of the parallel lines that you drew on the band. Unfortunately, I don't have an image of me measuring, as I wasn't able to control the cylinder in the mirror and take pictures of myself at the same time. Hope it helps to show it just like this for now.
Adjustments: Now, you need to observe yourself in the mirror, the cylinder edges should be perfectly perpendicular to the floor, both from the side view, as well as from the front, like the shaded area on the picture below. Adjust the clips if necessary and only then note the value you got on the paper.
That's it, readers. The value that you noted will be the width of our skirt, with all the necessary ease already included! Please do ask questions...
For the next post, I would like to ask you to take picture of yourself in leggings/tights and figure hugging t-shirt. You need to take image from all four sides, left, right, front and back. Place the camera approximately at the waist level. Watch the posture, do not tilt forward or backward if it is not your natural posture - camera makes us take very unexpected poses, so be aware of it. Trace the outline of your body from one side, front, and back to a letter-, or A4 size paper and make a few copies of it. In the next post we will start discussing shaping.

Here are 3 Southwest updates for today!
1. Southwest Credit Cards 50,000 Point Bonus Ends Wednesday
The best way to earn the Southwest Companion Pass is by signing-up for the 50,000 point Southwest credit cards before Wednesday, March 5, 2014. After Wednesday, the sign-up bonus will decrease and it won't be that easy to get the Companion Pass!
That said, I'm sure that at least 1 out of the 4 versions will have the 50,000 point sign-up bonus after Wednesday. But it could be harder to find all 4 versions with the 50,000 points offers.
If you have a Southwest Companion Pass, your companion will fly free with you on BOTH paid flights or flights booked with points (you just pay the $2.50 security fee). You can book a seat for yourself and add your companion later if you don't currently have a Companion Pass.
Read this post for all you need to know about the Southwest Companion Pass. You get the Companion Pass after earning 110,000 Companion Pass points. See this post for ways to get Companion Pass points after you get the credit card sign-up bonus.
And be sure you don't make 3 common mistakes that won't get you the Companion Pass!
That said, the 50,000 bonus usually comes back every 3 to 4 months, so if you don't get the cards now, you should be able to get the bonus later on.
2. Wanna Get Away…to Mexico?
From August 10, 2014, Southwest will fly to Cancun and Los Cabos, Mexico. This is in addition to flights to Montego Bay, Aruba, and Nassau.
You can use Southwest's interactive map to see when international flights will start from your city. I couldn't find Austin in the drop down box, but Kansas City was listed!
Emily and I can't wait to visit some of these new destinations!
3. Southwest Schedule Now Open Until October 31, 2014
You can now book paid and award flights on Southwest and AirTran up to October 31, 2014 (instead of August 8, 2014). So you can save some cash and start booking your fall travel now!
You can also use Southwest points to fly to Aruba, Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Mexico.
Unlike other airlines which open their schedule ~11 to 12 months in advance, Southwest opens their schedule ~6 to 8 months in advance.
Save Points By Booking Now For Flights Up to October 31, 2014
You can cancel a Southwest flight without penalty! If you redeemed points for your flight, the points go back to your account, so you can book your fall travel even if you're not sure of your plans.
You'll pay less points if you redeem your points before March 31, 2014 for flights on Southwest before and after March 31, 2014.
That's because the cost of using points will increase for flights booked after March 31, 2014. So your points will be worth ~15% less if you book a flight on, say, June 1, 2014 which is AFTER March 31, 2014.
But you will pay fewer points for the same flight booked BEFORE March 31, 2014. If the number of points required for an award drops or if your plans change, you can cancel and rebook your ticket without a fee!
If you cancel a paid flight at least 10 minutes prior to departure, you can get a credit for the entire ticket amount (no change fees on Southwest!) valid for up to one year from the date of issue.
You should be able to cancel an AirTran ticket for free as long as you booked it on the Southwest (and not on the AirTran) website.
Other Ways to Earn Southwest Points
If you're running low on Southwest points, you can instantly transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards points from the Chase Sapphire Preferred, (no longer available) Chase Ink Bold, or Chase Ink Plus to Southwest Airlines on a 1:1 ratio.
You can also earn points from the sign-up bonus on the Southwest credit card!
But transferring points directly from Ultimate Rewards to Southwest do NOT count towards the Companion Pass. Instead transfer them to Hyatt or Marriott hotel points and from Hyatt or Marriott transfer to Southwest.
AirTran Schedule Open Through October 31, 2014
You can also book flights on AirTran up to October 31, 2014.
You can usually book AirTran flights (within the US and NOT to international destinations) on the Southwest website because Southwest and AirTran have connected their networks.
You won't pay for 2 checked bags and you won't pay a fee for cancellations, if you book AirTran flights on the Southwest website.
If you book on the AirTran website, you can pay to get an assigned seat, but you'll also have to pay for your checked bags. I'd prefer to save money on checked bags than getting an assigned seat.
AirTran charges for cancellations while Southwest doesn't:
- You have to call AirTran at 800-247-8726 and request a credit (less the cancellation fee) when you cancel a paid flight.
- You have to call at least 1 hour prior to departure
- AND you will pay a $150 fee per passenger
You will be issued a credit for the remaining balance valid for up to 1 year after the booking was made. If you don't call at least 1 hour prior to departure, you forfeit your airfare.
Bottom Line
The 50,000 bonus point offer on all 4 versions of the Southwest credit cards ends this Wednesday, March 5, 2014. But the bonus comes and goes every 3 to 4 months.
Southwest will soon be flying to Mexico, as they take over more international routes flown by AirTran (with whom they are merging).
Southwest and AirTran schedules are open through October 31, 2014. So it doesn't hurt to book your fall 2014 travel now, even if you're not 100% sure of your plans.
That's because Southwest does not charge change fees so there is no penalty for canceling the flights and re-booking. And because your Southwest points are worth ~15% less if you use them to book award flights after March 31, 2014.

Next productions
His Dark Materials, 23rd March to 1st April
His Dark Materials is set in Philip Pullman's celebrated fantasy world - one in which people have physical souls in animal form, called daemons. Lyra and Will travel through parallel worlds populated with witches, armoured bears, harpies, ghosts and cliff-ghasts, to find Lyra's friend and Will's father. They meet challenges along the way, have to use their wits and their strength, and ultimately make sacrifices for the greater good.
Presented in two parts, in separate performances - an epic spectacle not to be missed!
Progress Premieres, 24th to 29th April, 19:45
Following on from the success of ten years of WriteFest, and as part of our commitment to supporting local writers and directors, Progress Theatre is proud to present an evening of two one-act plays:
Writer Bird by Emily Goode
The Swastika Party by Paul Levy
Murder, Margaret and Me, 22nd to 27th May, 19:45
Agatha Christie didn't want Margaret Rutherford to bring her fabled spinster to life - and Margaret was mortified at the prospects of sullying her reputation with something as sordid as murder...
Murder, Margaret and Me is the story of the real reason why the acting legend and "the funniest woman alive" didn't want to take on the role that made her celebrated around the world.
Betrayal, 12th to 17th June, 19:45
Shown in reverse chronological order, Betrayal explores and explodes the classic love triangle in Harold Pinter's unconventional fashion, opening with the end of the seven-year-long affair between Emma and Jerry - lifelong friend of her husband Robert - and heading back to its roots. Inspired by Pinter's real-life affair with Joan Bakewell, each character experiences their own version of betrayal.
The Tempest, 4th to 8th July, 19:45
Summoning a storm, the magician Prospero - rightful Duke of Milan - shipwrecks his usurping brother Antonio and King Alonso of Naples on his island exile. Surrounded by his menagerie of spirits and monsters, the vengeful Prospero takes control, punishing his spiteful, scheming brother and matching lovers Miranda and Ferdinand. Presented by Progress Youth Theatre.
The Wind in the Willows, 12th to 22nd July, at Caversham Court Gardens
Mole, Toad, Ratty and Badger are brought to life as they tell the tale of the events at Toad Hall in this playful adaptation of Kenneth Grahame's classic children's book, perfectly suited to the beautiful and enchanting setting of Caversham Court Gardens.
Why not bring a picnic and some fizz to one of the area's favourite annual events, presented by Reading's longest-running open-air theatre production? With a laid back atmosphere in one of the area's prettiest locations by Grahame's beloved Thames,
The Wind in the Willows will be enjoyed by the whole family.

Review of Colder Than Here
20th to 25th May 2013.
Review from the Newbury Weekly News.
Chilling thoughts
Colder Than Here, at Progress Theatre, Reading, from Monday, May 20 to Saturday, May 25
Death and its effect on the living is something we all have to confront and difficult to portray in the theatre. We all go with our own thoughts, our own prejudices, and our own values. Wade's play tackles these issues.
Carole Hewitt's Myra has terminal bone cancer arid is determined to die on her own terms, revealing a matter-of-fact approach to her condition. She wants to be in control. "You've got to keep yourself busy when you're off work with dying," she dolefully quips. What follows is a succession of 'awkward talks' that the family do not really want to have.
Husband Alec - a fine, restrained performance by Richard Tripp - seems indifferent, as if in denial. When challenged by his daughter as to how he can sit there reading the paper, he remarks: "A watched pot never boils".
Despite appearing to be a heartless man, he is practical. Although busying himself around the literally cold house, he is already grieving. His call to the heating company reveals more than the state of his boiler. The fear, as for all of them, is for the living. Can Alec and his daughters Harriet (Esther Walters) and Jenna (Samantha Bessant) cope emotionally without Myra's strength? It's quite clear at this point that they are a fractured family Moreover evident is that the illness is no more than a framing device for Laura Wade to explore family divisions.
I found the first half rather hard going; the pace unnecessarily slow, with weighty pauses and impassive stares. Such an approach may work in a menacing Pinter but not here. It was only in the second half that it gained any momentum as the four family members began to form the bond conspicuously absent in the earlier scenes.
However, it was all rather too late for my liking, and I found it difficult to connect.
Even the setting looked bleak; a minimalist set standing in for the family home and the proposed green burial grounds. There was very little divide. Maybe the lighting could have been used to greater effect. On a philosophical and cerebral level, it explored our views and approaches to death. However, as drama, it came across as appealing as the cold ground that summoned Myra.

Lund as a student city
The main Lund University campus is set in the charming cobble-stoned city of Lund, which dates back to 990. Today students make up almost half of the population in the city.
Ask any graduate what is special about Lund University and the chances are they will say Lund's unique student life. The 'nations' (large student societies), the Academic Society and the student unions have created many long-standing student traditions and their combined activities form the heart of student life in Lund.
There are many opportunities to meet and make new friends whether you prefer to go to a student lounge to relax and party, join in a debate, sing in a choir, attend a ball, go on an excursion, see an exhibition, join a sports team, volunteer at the student radio or TV channel, perform in the theatre or join in other student events.
In addition to experiencing Swedish traditions, you can also experience some of the unique student traditions of Lund University such as the doctoral conferment ceremony, the student carnival "Lundakarnevalen" and the comedy student theatre "spex".
The University and its students give Lund a youthful and vibrant atmosphere, which has led to an active cultural life full of activities and entertainment, including a range of art, music, dance, theatre, literature, film and museums. Lund University even has its own museum of art – Skissernas Museum - Museum of Artistic Process and Public Art, founded in 1934 and with free entry for students!
For sports enthusiasts there are plenty of opportunities to join local sports clubs or participate in social sports activities through the 'nations'. Within and around Lund, there are a range of sporting and exercise facilities, including swimming pools, tennis courts, climbing centres, sports fields, arenas and even Gerdahallen - Scandinavias's largest fitness and health centre for students and staff.
Coming to Lund University is also a great opportunity to experience the beautiful nature and outdoors of Sweden. City parks, hiking areas, beaches, cycling and walking paths, kayaking and sailing are all within easy reach.
There are also a number of interesting tourist attractions to visit within Skåne (the southern most region of Sweden where Lund is located) and in nearby Copenhagen which is less than an hour by train from Lund, taking you over the Öresund bridge into Denmark.
When it comes to travel opportunities, Lund is in a great location. Perhaps most importantly, Copenhagen Airport is just a 35-minute train ride from Lund, meaning you are connected with the whole world from this major international airport. Aside from Denmark, Lund is also located on the main railway line to other parts of Sweden and Norway, such as Gothenburg, Stockholm and Oslo. You can drive to Germany in less than 5 hours and there are ferries from nearby ports to take you to Poland, Denmark, Germany and the UK. Malmö airport also has several international and domestic flights.
Life in Lund combines academia with rich cultural traditions and the energy and dynamism of young students, resulting in a vibrant and memorable campus experience.

text: Primary producers If you're a primary producer, special tax concessions may affect which amounts you need to include in your assessable business income for an income year. Examples of primary production businesses include farming, fishing and aquaculture businesses. To use the special concessions for primary producers, you must meet our definition of running a business of primary production, which considers the size or scale of your business and its profitability. Special tax concessions There are special tax rules that may apply to your primary production income. These include concessions for: profit from the forced disposal or death of livestock insurance recoveries for losing livestock or for loss of trees by fire selling two wool clips in an income year because of an early shearing caused by drought, fire or flood averaging your income and the tax you are liable to pay over five years to allow for good and bad years deposits to the Farm Management Deposits scheme that allow you to defer income to a later year. The special concessions also affect when you have to pay your income tax, as you may be able to make two pay as you go (PAYG) instalments each year, instead of four. We will send you a letter if you are eligible for this option. Primary producers operating as an individual or in partnership can also benefit from exceptions to the non-commercial losses rules, which would otherwise restrict you from offsetting losses for a non-commercial business activity against your other assessable income. Those restrictions don't apply if your income from other sources (excluding net capital gains) is less than $40,000.

Perched on the rooftop level of WANGZ Hotel, you will enjoy panoramic views and a relaxing ambiance at Halo
Location of the Hotel
This event has been published in some big and popular Meetup groups and a big turnout is expected. Hence be prepared to make new friends not only from this group but also from other big and popular Meetup groups.
During the event, some newcomers may approach me to introduce them to other members. In this case, I may interrupt your conversation with other members to introduce them. Kindly accept my sincere and advance apology for inconvenience caused
Thursday, head on up to the rooftop lounge and playground for the soul, Halo, where the breezes are fresh and the views surprising.
Marvel at the panoramic sight of the Singapore skyline, while relishing a glass of wine/beer in a cool setting with lounge music playing in the background.
City views and al fresco rooftop bars are quickly becoming all the rage in Singapore, but few have a view like Halo has. Instead of the city skyline or the Central Business District, Halo offers something a little different. Due to its off-the-beaten-path location, you get an oft-overlooked treat: an aerial view of the Chinatown and Outram area. Trust us, it's gorgeous.
The best part of Halo though, is really the way it all comes together. Still relatively unknown amongst the general population, Halo is a divine escape that offers a blessed respite from the earthbound worries of everyday life. What better way to unwind the stress!
Registration fees:S$15(payable in cash only) for a glass of wine, house-pours, beer, juice or soft drinks.

$69.00 v chip
Has anyone added the $69.00 chip to their engien? Supposed to get better mileage and more HP.
If you want to spend your money on chips, buy Doritos or something. You'll actually get some use out of em.
X3 on the above comments. Although I'd go for Wise or Lays.......
If you buy one, carefully install it just under the front side of your right front tire. When you accelerate slowly, and hear the "pop", your installation is complete.
For $69. take your wife/girlfriend out for a nice dinner and a couple of beers. You'll get more from that than you will from a chip...
If it were possible for the factory to improve fuel economy like that chip claims it does with a simple program change, they would have already done so. Automotive manufacturers are under ENORMOUS political pressure to eke out every .1 mpg additional they can and no $69 chip is going to do something the factory couldn't have done.
There are way too many snake oil products floating around that claim to improve fuel economy and power that don't really, just keep your hard-earned $$$ in your wallet. |
