The Haunted South
Circlet of Conquest
A beaten and tarnished iron circlet.
This beaten and tarnished iron circlet is unremarkable except for the crest of a drawn bow upon it's crown.
It is currently buried under Miryam Constance Read's antique/junk/curio shop. The circlet is incredibly old and is tied up in prophecies of the Apocalypse. At the appointed time, it will be used to summon the horsemen of War, Pestilence and Death into the world.
It was actively sought by Reverend Malachi Light of the The Church of Redeeming Grace. And while it was briefly in their hands, it was taken back before any lasting harm could be done.

Trenches spoil jumbo party at Assam's tea gardens
Killer trenches are increasingly spoiling the jumbo tea party in Assam.india Updated: Oct 10, 2010 22:52 IST
Killer trenches are increasingly spoiling the jumbo tea party in Assam.
Tea planters are digging trenches — at least five feet deep — around their estates to keep elephants at bay.
At least five elephants, under 15 years, have died after falling into trenches dotting eastern Assam's tea gardens since August.
This "disturbing trend" has shocked many wildlife experts.
"I was appalled to learn that the elephants allegedly died after falling into deep drains constructed by the estates. The tea garden authorities must take responsibility for these deaths and cases should be registered by the forest department," says Belinda Wright, executive director ofWildlife Protection Society of India.
Officials are trying their best to address the growing problem of human-elephant conflict in the state.
"We are dispatching letters to proprietors and executives of estates adjoining protected areas and near elephant habitats to dissuade them from digging trenches or asking them to make them shallow," says Suresh Chand, principal chief conservator of forest (wildlife).
Forest officials say this a relatively new phenomenon in areas on the southern bank of the Brahmaputra. But reports say that at least seven tea estates in Sonitpur district on the northern bank have had trenches since 2004.
"The trenches are usually so narrow that elephants have no room to maneouvre once they fall. They get asphyxiated when the sides cave in under pressure of accompanying adults trying to save them," says Anupam Sarmah of WWF-India.
Wildlife authorities are also educating planters that such short-term measures do not help mitigate. They are being encouraged to adopt measures that will help restore elephant corridors.

One very important factor in the driving test apart from your ability, and the instructor's ability to have got you to a reasonable standard, is of course the examiner. Let me try and put a few fears to rest about them. The great majority are very caring, open minded, sincere, and have a good sense of humour.
The position itself can be stressful at times and there is a lot of responsibility to be accurate with how you assess candidates, but on many occasions it is a very satisfying job. Every day is different because every single test involves a different person and different situations arise.
Human nature being what it is, you will never get the situation where every examiner will have the same effect on you. Some you will take to, and some you won't. However, one of the objectives of examiners is to put you at ease and bring the best out of you on the test; even to the point of having a little informal chatter if the opportunity presents itself.
There is no way you are going to get 1400 driving examiners doing a job to an identical level of assessment. However, it would surprise many people to see just how close they are over a period of one year (this can be in excess of 1700 tests each!). The reason for this is that the DSA have a structured organisation and approach to maintain uniformity throughout the country. Examiners are accompanied on test quite regularly with the SDE, to make sure that a uniform standard and correct level of assessment is maintained, along with the appropriate attitude and approach towards customers.
Another important point is when an examiner return to the office after a driving test, and something unusual has occurred, he will mention it to his colleagues in order to get a good discussion going. This is very important to maintain consistent marking; it fosters good team spirit and enables the SDE to hear how the rest of the team are thinking.
The SDE also has his work checked quite regularly; as he too conducts driving tests, and is accompanied on test by a Supervising Examiner: the latter having several centres under his control, thus maintaining uniformity over an even greater area. The overall picture is of regular close supervision, to maintain consistency of both assessment and approach to customers; which the DSA place very highly in their list priorities.
Don't believe all you hear about driving examiners.
Take the case of Mrs Jones down the street that tells you she took her test last Friday, she only had 12 lessons and didn't have any practice in between her lessons. She only failed because she touched the kerb whilst reversing round a corner.
"It was the stupid examiner's fault. I bet he had a row with his wife before setting off for work, or he fell over the dog when he was coming out of the gate or that he'd already passed his quota for that week. It isn't right you know, they shouldn't let things like that influence their decision".
The truth of the matter was more likely that she had 40 lessons, was nowhere near ready to take the test, and probably had about seven crosses on her failure sheet. The examiner was single and didn't have a dog and there is no such thing as a quota for the week. I have probably exaggerated slightly here; with the exception of the quota which does not exist at all.
Judge the examiner on how you find him / her for yourself, be impartial, don't believe all you hear. Remember that the examiner may be just like you, with a mortgage and a family. He may even have the same interests and hobbies. It is easier for the examiner after someone has passed his or her test. Not only is it a nice feeling telling someone they are good enough to take their L plates off, it also involves far less paperwork! And please don't believe Dolly Dreamgirl who tells you she passed because she turned up for test in a skimpy little outfit that showed a lot of leg or chest. The truth is she passed because she had reached the standard required, she may even have had a female examiner!
When an examiner, current or retired, is asked about his occupation; his reply always seems to cause a considerable amount of joviality. They are often asked to describe funny incidents that have occurred whilst on a test. They do not occur as often as you may think or maybe after being in the job a considerable length of time you become a little blasé towards various situations, but you might find the two following incidents, that I have witnessed, quite humorous.
The first incident was when I got into the car with the candidate, gave him the wordings regarding the test. He promptly closed his eyes, released the handbrake then put his hands together no doubt saying a short prayer. Unfortunately we were parked on a slight decline and the car started rolling down the hill and as the car was in the left lock it started to mount the very low nearside footpath. The candidate appeared totally unaware of the situation so I had to stop the car using the dual footbrake.
The second incident occurred as I was conducting a driving test and the candidate was trying to turn right on to a major road. The view to the left was restricted as the major road went round a left-hand bend, the road was clear to emerge onto and the candidate did so, unfortunately she drove far too slowly in view of the restriction to the left. As she started to emerge a builder's van came round the bend from the left, he had to brake considerably because the candidate was going so slow. I looked in the rear view mirror to see fall pipe and guttering shooting forward off the roof rack and finished on the road in front of the car. The driver got out of the van in the middle of the road and stood there scratching his head. The candidate continued along at a crawling pace totally oblivious to what had taken place. In this situation what she should have done was after making sure it was clear to the right, she should have emerged looking to the left and really got on with it to avoid the above situation happening.
Whilst there is a dangerous side to the above incidents I saw the humorous side at the time and I can still laugh at them. I will say neither candidate was successful on those particular occasions.
Then there are these incidents that do happen quite regularly. Getting taken around a supermarket car park by mistake, finishing very close to garden walls or fences during manoeuvres. I do know of one examiner that was in the car when the candidate lost control and the car did knock a brick wall down and end up in the garden. The candidate turned to the examiner and asked if he was alright, as she could see he was a little shaken up, then went on to say "don't worry I'm a nurse"! Wing mirrors get clipped as you pass parked vehicles. Candidates want to go down one-way streets the wrong way or go the wrong way along dual carriageways. Motorcyclists sometimes fall off when carrying out the emergency stop exercise but only rarely do they hurt themselves. As I said earlier you become a little blasé after a while regarding these happenings.
To Summarise: -
Don't believe all you hear about examiners.
The Examiner will not be laughing at you if you do something 'wrong' as no doubt others have done the same thing. Take a look at 'The Driving Test' section, this will make you aware of what is expected of you and which procedures cause the most problems on test.

The Rocket House, an in-game structure from Carbine Studios' upcoming MMO WildStar, was brought to life using 50,000 Lego bricks at PAX East 2014. This replica is more than a publicity stunt—Carbine Studios is donating it along with $10,000 to the Child's Play Charity, which is dedicated to providing toys, games, and books for sick kids in hospitals across North America.
In 2013, Child's Play raised over $5.7mil for its cause. The charity's proceeds are used to buy new consoles, games, and accessories for hospitals and therapy facilities. Child's Play aims to give children who are unfortunate enough to end up in these places a way to take their minds off their problems. What better way to provide an escape than through fun?
The Rocket House replica was built by Mariann Asanuma, one of the few professional freelance Lego builders in the world, and the only female among them. None of us at Reviewed.com ever thought it was possible to make a career out of playing with Legos, but Asanuma was living the dream.
The Rocket House project took between five and six weeks to complete, starting from renders sent to her by Carbine Studios. From there, Asanuma set about breaking those images down into Lego blocks, using her talents to craft a faithful and perfectly-scaled replica.
Between the impending release of a much-anticipated game, a generous donation to one of the gaming industry's most well-known charities, and Asanuma's unique talent with Legos, the main lobby of the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center became a nexus of awesomeness this weekend.

I had a two-year-old and was pregnant with my second child; somehow, the great food that I wanted to capture on this blog rarely made it online. (I'm sure I could come up with some great technical reasons, but really, I think it was just a combination of toddlers and dinnertime.) I did get a couple of posts up, but today I have no idea what happened to them!
Fast forward two years: I am now the mom of a four-year-old boy, a girl who is almost two, and a new baby. Though I do love to cook, I have discovered more and more lately that there might be space for me in the crafty universe also. Something about creating something that actually exists for longer than a meal or two and is of use in some way is really appealing to me. Because this is a new revelation to me, I have a bit of a "crafty buffet" happening here. In the last year, I've tried my hand at crochet (scarves at Christmas), knitting (another scarf), sewing (some clothes, a playtent, napkins), quilting (a baby gift), and embroidery.
Over the last year, I've tried a lot of things, and I've enjoyed most of it. If you are willing to be all over the board in your reading, I'm happy to oblige because who knows what you'll get here?? Could be food, could be crafts, could be books....Hopefully, whatever else it is, it'll be fun! Welcome!

Many times when reading a restaurant review I look to see where a restaurant is located, and many times the map points are wildly off. Case in point: a recent review of Masala, a restaurant in Somerville, MA, near Boston. The map shows 2 points: Masala Art in Needham, MA, and Teele Square Cafe in Somerville. Where did these points come from??? No location is provided for the restaurant being reviewed.

Watching the dominos fall
A) Sovereign default: a sovereign default, be it for Greece, Ireland or any other Eurozone member would be disastrous at present. Should any sovereign default on its bond obligations, then the downward spiral would intensify even further and affect even more countries. Furthermore, the banking sectors of the core countries would be affected significantly - amid their holdings of peripheral debts - threatening the core economies. Given the adversity of this scenario, I am convinced that European authorities/politicians will do everything they can to prevent it from happening.
B) Significant quantitative easing by the ECB: As mentioned in my last blog post (Will the real ECB please stand up?), the monetary transmission mechanism in the Eurozone is not working properly. Should the ECB engage in massive quantitative easing (several hundred billions of peripheral bond buying), it could change the dynamics significantly. The ECB bond buying would depress peripheral bond yields sharply and help these sovereigns to continue financing its debt without needing a bail-out. Given such a massive ECB bond buying which breaks the adverse feedback loop, private investors could also move back on the buying side. This could be implemented very easily but the consensus within the ECB for such a course of action is not there (yet).
C) Joint Eurobond issuance. A fairly sensible solution would be to start with joint issuance. A new central agency would issue Eurobonds. Each country could finance up to the criteria set in the stability pact, i.e. up to a maximum outstanding amount of 60% relative to GDP and up to a maximum new issuance each year of 3% of GDP. Any financing needs exceeding these limits would continue to be financed via national bonds (i.e. Bunds, BTPs, BONOs etc.) which, however, would be subordinate to the Eurobonds. Given the much more limited outstanding amounts of the new national bonds, default on these bonds becomes more likely as the risk of contagion and the risk of a systemic financial sector crisis would be much lower. The credit risk and liquidity of these national bonds would be lower and hence yields higher, much higher for the peripheral countries. As a result, the market would continue to differentiate between issuers and hence there would be very strong incentives for each country to remain within the stability pact criteria (much stronger incentives than there were in the past). Additionally, if Eurobond issuance were to start now, the peripheral countries could refinance all their maturing debts and it would take several years before the 60% limit would be reached. The financing via national bonds would be very limited initially (only the part of the deficit exceeding 3%) and could probably be done - at high rates - with short maturity bonds. The implementation, though, seems difficult and there is no political will to engage in such a course of action (yet).
D) A doubling up of the EFSF: this would just prolong the current downward spiral. It would not break the adverse feedback loop (higher yields-weaker economy-higher default risk-higher yields) and the bail-outs would likely continue. However, it would still not be enough to deal with a potential bail-out of Italy. Such a doubling up per se would not offer a lasting solution. Alternatively, a doubling up + ECB buying to a much higher degree where a total of approx. EUR 2trn could be provided would be a different thing as it would guarantee financing and would reduce market rates.
E) A Eurozone break-up. Should the Eurozone break up, the most likely course of action would be for a formation of two separate currency areas (Euro north and Euro south). For a single country to leave, the economic costs would be almost unbearable. A weak country would lose all access to financial markets, could not service its EUR-denominated debts and would need to default. A strong country would see its new currency skyrocket, threatening to kill exports and the banking sector (because they hold a lot of assets denominated in the now weaker EUR). The only half-way realistic scenario would be for the northern block (Germany, Austria, Finland, Netherlands, Luxembourg, potentially Belgium) to form a new currency area which would limit the appreciation effects/reduce the loss of exports/devaluation of banking assets. On the other side a weak country could only leave as a group as well (Greece together with Spain, Portugal, Italy and maybe France) to form a new larger group with a meaningful internal economic and financial market which is still able to attract some foreign capital. However, for such a separation there would need to be a very strong political will (given the super high costs involved) and in turn a democratic legitimation to engage in such a course of action. But for such political movements to form, it needs time, i.e. some years.
Overall, amid the complexity, the costs involved and potential time it needs, a Eurozone break-up remains highly unlikely. Rather, the current path will continue to be taken up until a large country (probably Spain) needs a bail-out and the capacity of the EFSF is being used up. At that stage the political will to start with joint Eurobond issuance or the consensus within the ECB to engage in massive quantitative easing are likely to form, i.e. I think that the most likely scenario is the one of ECB QE (done in conjunction with a topping up in the EFSF), followed by joint Eurobond issuance. Together, I would assign these scenarios a probability of around 60-70%. Up to that point we can continue to watch the dominos fall.

A strong country would see its new currency skyrocket, threatening to kill exports and the banking sector (because they hold a lot of assets denominated in the now weaker EUR).
I would have thought it would help the banking sector- all those debts in the old euro would be devalued perhaps by as much as 40% against the new strong currency.
I would argue that lets say a bank in Germany would have its debts denominated in the new German currency (probably depending on the jurisdiction in which they were issued, but a lot seem to use some domestic/Luxemburg/Dutch entities to fund themselves) but some of the assets on the banks' balance sheets would be in the weaker Euro and hence they incur a loss.ReplyDelete
German banks are too weak to withstand significant losses on their asset side.

With all of the speculation surrounding Hillary Clinton's health over the past 48 hours, this slip of the tongue by an ABC news anchor on live television certainly came at an ironic time.
While reporting Clinton's health issues on Sunday, WABC-TV news anchor Joe Torres started out his broadcast by saying, "Good evening, we begin with Hillary Clinton's death."
The reporter continued his broadcast, seemingly unaware of his slip up, and reported on the events at the 9/11 memorial that morning where Hillary Clinton was forced to make a hasty exit due to a "medical episode". Clinton's knees buckled as she was about to enter her van, surrounded by secret service and being propped up by her assistant, when she collapsed and had to be lifted into the vehicle.
Secret Service seemed to be a hurry to get her out of there, so much so that she reportedly left one of her shoes behind that fell off when she collapsed.
After Joe Torres made the slip up of his life on live television, mistakenly reporting Hillary Clinton's health, TVspy reached out for comment from the WABC news station.
"During a live introduction to a story about the health of Hillary Clinton, Joe Torres inadvertently said 'death' when he meant to say 'health.'" a station spokesperson said. "It was clear from the context of the story, the reporters' information and graphics on the screen that Secretary Clinton was alive and recovering."
They claimed that Torres meant to say "health" rather than "death", but considering the two words don't sound particularly alike, you have to wonder what was really on this reporter's mind at the time.

Bill Increases Transparency for Projects Funded Using the State Water Implementation Fund
CARROLLTON – State Representative Ron Simmons filed House Bill 280 to require information regarding the use of the State Water Implementation Fund for Texas (SWIFT) to be posted on the Texas Water Development Board's (TWDB) website.
During the 83rd Legislative Session, Rep. Ron Simmons and Rep. Giovanni Capriglione worked together on an amendment to House Bill 4 that required TWDB to post detailed information to their website concerning projects funded by SWIFT. The amendment was adopted in the House version of the bill, but was not included in the final version signed into law by Governor Perry on May 28, 2013.
"I filed HB 280 to ensure the transparency requirements accepted by the House are included in the implementation of SWIFT," said Simmons. "HB 280 will require the trust company, Texas Treasury Safekeeping Trust Company, and the Texas Water Development Board to post information about water plan investments and projects on their respective websites."
Among other reporting requirements, House Bill 280 would require the following information to be posed online: (a) the expenses incurred in investing money in the fund; (b) the rate of return on money invested in the fund; and (c) a description of the point system for prioritizing projects and the number of points awarded by TWDB for each project.
"Last session we made monumental progress in developing sufficient water infrastructure and ensuring a sustainable water supply for future Texas generations with the passage of HB 4," added Simmons. "HB 280 increases transparency and accountability to help make sure taxpayer dollars are used appropriately and efficiently for this purpose."
Rep. Capriglione is set to sign on as a joint-author of House Bill 280.

It's Just A Magic Moment?
Oh yes, why do we just take so many things for granted? A simple moment in time we think that we will never forget, yet that being said---we will never really see it again or remember it as it was at that magic first moment. In our busy world today I wonder how many hesitate long enough to see or examine the moments that with the blink of an eye just past by them.
Here if I may, I will attempt to paint a few of those magic moments for some times words are not enough.
Yes the sun will rise tomorrow---yet it will not be the same as it was at this magic moment. It will wash away like the footprints in the sand and tomorrow that magic moment will be new.
The eagle soars high above in the sky and how many take that moment to look up and marvel at this magic moment?
This simple drop of water maybe released from a spider web will disapear with a blink of an eye---never to hold the magic of that moment again!
Could it be that the magic of love---needs no words or does it require only a moment?
A touch can be a magical moment that no words can describe!
Oh! how I wish that I could paint those magic moments and hold them a little longer?
Beautiful words, excellent concept. I love how well the pictures blended with the text to make a poignant story. Voting up!
This is completely so beautiful and the pictures are truly wonderful. Loved it, voting up and pressing those buttons too.
Very nice hub Ginn.
Ohh this hub is sooo beautiful. Thank you putting it together and for adding some magic moments to my day. Voted up, beautiful, awesome and useful.
Beautiful! voted up
Ginn, glad to see you are still writing. This was beautiful.
Interesting works of art.
Beautiful sentiments.
Tim W
Lovely Ginn.
So many people seemed to have lost the 'art' of soaking up a magic moment, whatever that may uniquely be for any one of us.
I feel that the appreciation of simple and unique moments or things helps make one happier.
Cheers, Louise
Such a lovely thought! May your life be full of magic moments, GN! :)
This is just beautiful,so I'm rating it that way.
There are many moments that I have lost because of being distracted by other things.
This is beautiful. It helps you remember the simple things.
ISN'T THAT THE TRUTH...Magic Moments that will not be forgotten, but cannot be ever the same...if only as you say we take the time to appreciate them...Nice I liked this Thanks for sharing...:O) Hugs G-Ma
Just beautiful Ginn!
Well done.
Up, awesome, and beautiful.

Chances are U2 front man Bono doesn't need any cash but that doesn't mean Friday won't be a beautiful day for the singer.
When Facebook begins selling shares of its social network to the public, Bono will become the richest rocker in the world.
The Irish singer owns about 2.3 percent of the company through his investment group Elevation Partners.
Bono's firm bought $90 million worth of Facebook shares in 2009 on the secondary market. His shares could now be worth more than $1.5 billion.
If the estimates are accurate, Bono would surpass Beatles great Paul McCartney who is believed to be worth about $1.05 billion.

In "The Uncounted," their article in The New York Times Magazine last week, Azmat Khan and Anand Gopal laid bare a tragic reality of American military operations against the Islamic State: the untold harm inflicted on civilians.
That the Islamic State is guilty of horrific atrocities is common knowledge. But most Americans seem unaware of the human toll of our own actions, the consequences this has for our national security and our reputation, and that too often the civilian casualties we cause are the result of avoidable mistakes. This must change.

This week's writer is U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont.
It is hard to believe that 15 years ago this past Sunday the Twin Towers fell, smoke from the Pentagon could be seen from miles away, and a plane went down in a Pennsylvania field. For those who lived through that horrible day, the memory still feels fresh.

This week's writer is U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont.
This week's writer is Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Vermont's senior U.S. senator and author of the FOIA Improvement Act and of several other laws to strengthen the Freedom of Information Act. He was installed in the FOIA Hall of Fame in 1996 for his leadership in expanding the public's right to know. The New England First Amendment Coalition presented Leahy its top award in February for his lifetime commitment to freedom of the press and open government. Sunshine Week is March 13-19.
As Vermont's college students return from the winter break and begin their spring semesters, college costs continue to weigh heavily on their minds and on their pocketbooks. The price of a college education has steadily grown to become both a personal financial hardship for them and their families, and an emerging national crisis, and we need to tackle it. No student should ever be denied a higher education simply because of a lack of financial ability. That is not how we prepare the next generation to lead our country in the global marketplace.
This week's writer is U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont, ranking member of the Senate's Subcommittee on the State Department and Foreign Operations.
Two years of arduous negotiations now have produced an agreement to seal off Iran's path to producing a nuclear weapon.
I will have questions in the detailed briefings and hearings ahead, as I'm sure others will. But we already know quite a bit.
Sunshine Week is a time to celebrate one of our nation's most basic values, the public's "right to know." Our very democracy is built on the idea that our government should not operate in secret. James Madison, a staunch defender of open government, whose birthday we celebrate each year during Sunshine Week, wisely noted that for our democracy to succeed, people "must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives." Transparency enables the American people to hold their government accountable.
This is the sixth anniversary of Sunshine Week, a time to take stock of the public's right to know and to celebrate victories in making ours a more open and transparent government.

after several years of sitting out the radio control expo rcx (http://www.rcx.com/), we have committed to attending the show and will be taking a small booth in the die-cast collector's expo, and although the booth will be small, we expect plenty of excitement.
We will have 1st looks at series 12.1 in all 3 scales, plus r/c. we will of course have the 1:6 willys on display, and it will be looking stellar..
we'll have some hand-outs, post-cards, etc. and, maybe even a drawing or 2 for some brand new MM t-shirts.
but the question on your mind, i know, is why oh why do you tease us with a picture of a gorgeous female in this post?

Twice Bitten
I took some advice from the Wet Canvas Forum to re-ground and re-bite the plate. Here is the 2nd proof of the re-bitten plate. For the most part I did not re-needle the original lines and concentrated on those areas that had not bitten at all the first time around. As I suppose was inevitable, the original lines and the newly bitten lines did not match exactly though I tried to stop out and time the biting so they would be as close as possible. The newly bitten lines ended up a bit darker so on the second proof I wiped those areas more to remove more ink. That worked pretty well as you may (or may not) agree, and if I spend more time I can probably get the match even closer. Comments would be very welcome.

Take Me Down To The River
As I've mentioned before, I live about a half mile from the Delaware River in west-central New Jersey. Several weeks ago I drove a few miles north to one of the few bridges across the river at Riegelsville, Pennsylvania. The bridge was built by Roebling & Sons of New Jersey in 1904, the same firm that built the Brooklyn Bridge. It's a beautiful suspension bridge, one of a handful of continuous wire-rope suspension bridges in the country. For all that, it's a small, country-sized bridge that replaced the original covered bridge built there in the 1830's though it uses the original stone supports. I drive across this bridge every day as I go to and from work in Easton, Pa.
Anyway, it was one of the local sites I wanted to capture in an etching and I decided this was a good weekend to make the plate and pull a proof or two. I still have a lot to learn about drawing, etching and printmaking and I took a few more small steps forward through working on this project.
I would very much appreciate hearing them people's opinions about problems. In my opinion the image is too light. I don't think this was because of the biting but with the needling or, to go back even further, with the grounding. I used a standard liquid hard ground but since I had problems with a previous plate where the acid leeched through a bit I decided to put two coats on this time. That may still have worked out but I didn't account for that extra thickness when I needled the plate and I did clear the lines properly. They looked OK up to a point, and my lack of experience told me they were OK, but in reality they still had some measure of the ground left on them. This resulted in some lines not coming out at all and others that were very light or incomplete.
I don't necessarily think that proved to be a complete disaster, but there are some elements that I wish were not so spotty and the lines I needled for the water are pretty much nonexistent. Again, I would appreciate opinions on this. I was not going for an architectural copy of the bridge but an impressionistic interpretation having drawn it from nature. I do think I will add some dry point to give some appearance to the water.
On the other hand, this is my first real drawing from nature turned into an etched plate and a print. So whatever its faults, I'm excited and pleased.
Here are the facts: Bridge over the Delaware River at Riegelsville, Penna.; 3" x 4" copper plate etching from nature; Graphic Chemical's bone black etching ink on their generic cotton house paper.

Finis Origine Pendet
Bertha C. Jacques co-founded the Chicago Society of Etchers in 1910 and helped launch a revival of American fine art printmaking that included hundreds of female artists. Many printmaking programs and art societies sprang up as a result.
I like the photo above. The young woman is obviously determined to produce a print. Not only is she exerting herself physically but she has made the effort to establish at least a rudimentary studio space in the corner of her room. From the style of her hair and dress I'm guessing the photo dates from the 1920's or 30's. If the latter she is perhaps one of the many women and men taking advantage of the New Deal's WPA art programs, many of which were home-grown operations. The room and furnishings seem to confirm a humble situation in life as much as her clothing and lack of high style. In spite of these things, or perhaps because of them, she is pursuing something beyond the drudgery of day to day existence in order to speak in way available only to those who try.

RIAs that work with Trust Company of America know that a key focus of our work is on helping advisors achieve smart growth.
Whether it is our dedicated advisor service, leading RIA technology, or practice management consultative offerings, we help advisors do more with what they have.
Now a new corporate initiative to train employees in the art of Lean Six Sigma process improvement is aimed at making TCA – and our RIAs – a leaner, more efficient and smarter organization.
A total of 12 TCA employees are completing an intensive "Greenbelt" training under the guidance of Mike Lover, TCA's Vice President of Process Improvement and a Black Belt in Lean Six Sigma.
Trust Company of America has been bringing Lean Six Sigma concepts to its custody platform and its advisors for about a year – with tangible results for company and customers. "By making TCA more efficient and effective, we are creating opportunities to help our RIAs grow their business, share best practices, drive efficiency and increase scalability," said Lover.
Originally designed for manufacturing processes, Six Sigma is a data-driven management approach designed to eliminate waste and inefficiencies in any process. And it has found a welcome home at TCA, where Lover and his team have worked to streamline operations and trim the waste and inefficiency of back-office operations.
The new Greenbelt trainees – front-line employees, client specialists, supervisors and managers – are going through a three-tier program that includes:
The Greenbelts will push efficiencies in new areas by streamlining the conversion of assets to the TCA custody platform for new and existing advisors; driving efficiencies through paperless statements and online distribution requests; and simplifying processes for the calculation of client fee assessments and recurring client distributions
Lover and his team have also taken Lean Six Sigma process improvement to individual RIA firms and online through TCA's Genius Session webinar series. The goal, as always, is to help RIA's achieve smarter growth – spending less time stuck at their desks and more time face-to-face with new clients. Said Lover: "Process improvement at TCA is about freeing up capacity and giving advisors one their most precious resources…time."

Okay. I have done NaNoWriMo one year (2011) and I'm doing it again this year. I did "win" last year, and I've been pretty happy with what I wrote. I had a lot of re-writes to do, but that is not related to NaNoWriMo. It was my own fault for not checking dates and not having a definitive plan for the witches in my series.
I've seen that a lot of people who do NaNoWriMo are having problems with what they have to work with AFTER NaNoWriMo is over. I've heard that they have "won a mess" of a manuscript and they aren't sure what to do with it.
Here is my advice on NaNoWriMo:
Don't push yourself too hard. If your writing seems to be coming out like crap, pace yourself. You don't have to win. If you happen to hit the 50,000 mark, then that is great! If you don't, then that's okay! At least you have a start. NaNoWriMo is about motivation.
USE the forums! If you get stuck, take it to the forums! While you're there answer question other pepole have posted. One of my favorite things about NaNoWriMo is the support in the forums. NaNoWriMo is about supporting eachother.
Once you have written that 50,000 words, or at least have gotten a start on that total, keep in mind that the approximate length of a novel is 70,000 or more. That means you still have some writing to do once you hit that mark whether it be during or after NaNoWriMo. Don't fret! That's okay! Any number is good and will give you a foundation to work with. NaNoWriMo is about writing.
I'll be letting you know my progress each Monday (I'll be calling it NaNoWriMondays: A Progress Report) this month, and I'll do a wrap up post on the 30th, so make sure you return to see progress and additional advice!
Oh, and my username is lil87blue if you want to become writting buddies!

For today's Skirt Alert! we thought we'd share some skirts on sale from some of our favorite places to shop on the internet. This is a good time of year to shop sales, holiday shopping is over, retailers are thinking about stocking for spring fashions which means it's time for the winter stuff to go! That's just fine with us, the consumer, because we still have several months of winter clothes wearing left.
Over at Soft Surroundings they have a sale going on! One of our favorite winter skirts from the sale is this Sabrina Suede Skirt. It's over 50% off, so now is the time to get a skirt that's really cozy, cute and comfortable!
Or if you're just waiting for the skirt we featured earlier to go on sale, now's your chance to snap it up!
Over at J.Jill there is a sale going on, and we just love this cute plaid wrap-style skirt! Just the right way to finish off winter!
Also the pink skirt we featured back in October if a very reasonable price in their outlet shop right now, if you had your eye on that one!
Now Anthropologie skirts are expensive, but when they go on sale, they really go on sale! For example, this Sundial Silk maxi skirt was $168, but now you can buy it for $29.95! What's not to love? It has the very popular mullet (or hi-low) cut, it's silk, elastic waist, and very IN colors! Now the sizes are limited but with an elastic waist, you can play with that a little bit!
Our favorite source for denim skirts always has a sale skirt section, again with limited sizes, but this one is on sale and has a pretty big range of sizes available. We think you could finish out winter in this with a pair of thick tights, boots and a sweater!
Last but not least, Modcloth has a sale section on their vintage/retro inspired skirts! You might have to become a member (don't worry it's free) to be able to shop these great sales, but be aware it's worth it. We love this Heartened Soul Skirt which is 70% off! In fact, since this one is no longer available in our size, we may just have to do a knock off version!
Make it beautiful,

Fruit roll ups were totally one of my favorite treats when I was a kid, and Maddie loves these homemade ones to bits!
You really can't beat one ingredient for an easy recipe!
The major thing to appreciate?here is the nutrition factor as well. No additives or preservatives, just a simple and natural, chewy roll of deliciousness!
What is this "magical" one ingredient? Fruit!
What a novel idea! Fruit roll ups made from FRUIT! <—insert sarcastic eye roll here!
It boggles my mind thinking about all of the "can't find it the grocery store" ingredients that are in packaged fruit snacks, and I'd rather not have to think about it, so we make these instead!
A couple of notes before you make these Homemade Fruit Roll Ups…
- If you are fruits that are a bit?bitter/tart, feel free to add a tablespoon or so of honey to sweeten it up!
- This tutorial says to heat at 180 degrees, but we usually do ours at 210 degrees. I know ovens can vary, but 30 degrees seemed like a big enough difference to note!
- While you can use a pretty wide variety of fruits, berries work best!
- There's really no exact recipe since these are so customizable, but I usually end up using between 2-2 1/2 cups of fruit in total.
Check out this quick video for the easy step by step instructions to make your own Homemade Fruit Roll Ups!

The following are some cool passages I found on tumblr. I agree 100% with both. When I was first reading the Riot Grrrl one, I was like "WTF is this shit? How can we be expected to forget about a feminist movement that is awesome?" but then I read the last line, about Riot Grrrl being an evolution I was like FUCK YES. I think rather than obsessing over the Riot Grrrl of the 90s, we need to evolve it and make it valid for today. I encourage everyone to read both blurbs. I know some people consider reading a burden, but this is some cool fucking stuff that I'm sure you will find really interesting and eye opening. Feel free to comment with your thoughts and opinions!
~~~A reminder on why we need to focus on ourselves, rather than others. Written by Cassie.
No, for real. We do. I love riot grrrl as much as the next girl in a band who does the occasional Bratmobile cover. But let's put that scene to rest. Let's leave it in the '90s.
There's a whole different scene these days— with some of the old spirit, but with some new faces, the new forum that is the internet, new possibilities for gender expression, some new experiences (and not-so-new-experiences, like racism) that the old riot grrrls never really spoke to.
I think about this a lot, with my comic Riot Grrrl Problems, which I've hit a stand-still with. Because I, as a Latina, am really trying to wrestle with the idea of tackling race in what's supposed to be a funny comic. I thought of revealing Katie as someone who had a brown mother, but I realized the whole point of the cartoon is "White Girl Problems" with a punk filter. I want my white protagonist to say something racist at a show. I want her to be confronted with brown punx in her precious white space, and I want her to handle it poorly, I want her to think about the stuff she's never wanted to think about, I want her to grow the fuck up because at some point, all riot grrrls have to grow the fuck up, all of them are gonna have to face a world that they're not familiar with, people who don't care about their zines or their music or their circular discussions about how it's perfectly a-okay to like sex.
Riot grrrls started their scene because they wanted it to grow and to evolve. So let's do it. Let's come up with something good.
~~~"In pop culture, girls who crush hopelessly on guys they can't have are painted as just that – hopeless. Over and over again, we're taught that girls who openly express sexual or romantic interest in guys who don't want them are pitiable, stalkerish, desperate, crazy bitches. More often than not, they're also portrayed as ugly – whether physically, emotionally or both – in order to further establish their undesirability as an objective fact. Both narratively and, as a consequence, in real life, men are given free reign to snub, abuse, mislead and talk down to such women: we're raised to believe that female desire is unseemly, so that any consequent shaming is therefore deserved. There is no female-equivalent Friend Zone terminology because, in the language of our culture, a man's romantic choices are considered sacrosanct and inviolable. If a girl has been told no, then she has only herself to blame for anything that happens next – but if a woman says no, then she must not really mean it. Or, if she does, she shouldn't: the rejected man is a universally sympathetic figure, and everyone from moviegoers to platonic onlookers will scream at her to justgive him a chance, as though her rejection must always be unfounded rather than based on the fact that he had a chance, and blew it. And even then, give him another one! The pathos of Single Nice Guys can only be eased by pity-sex with unwilling women that blossoms into romance!"

The materials were obtained by the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung and the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, and have now been shared with The New York Times. In recent weeks, the papers' revelations about Mossack Fonseca's international clientele have shaken the financial world. The Times's examination of the files found that Mossack Fonseca also had at least 2,400 United States-based clients over the past decade, and set up at least 2,800 companies on their behalf in the British Virgin Islands, Panama, the Seychelles and other jurisdictions that specialize in helping hide wealth.

10 Most Famous Rock Songs Of The 80's
The 10 most famous rock songs of the 80's includes a wide mix of bands and singers. And since the 80's marked the launch of MTV and the music video in general, the most famous rock songs of the 80's are likely to coincide with some of the most memorable videos, too. The 80's gets a bad rap for being best known for a bunch of one-hit wonders and throwaway pop. However, this list of the most famous rock songs of the 80's should remind anyone that the Reagan era really rocked.
- "Another Brick in the Wall." Pink Floyd said goodbye to the 70s with this December 1979 protest song that became one of the biggest rock hits worldwide in 1980. "Another Brick in the Wall" is actually the name for a three-set song from the band's landmark album "The Wall," but most radio listeners are familiar with Part II (Education). The song was actually banned in South Africa after it became a rallying cry to end Apartheid.
- "The Waiting." Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers released this 1981 rock classic about the challenges of wondering whether your dreams will come true. Petty has said he thinks of it as an optimistic song because it reaffirms the importance of having dreams.
- "You Shook Me All Night Long." Perhaps AC/DC's most popular song, it became a monster hit from the band's 1980 comeback album "Back in Black" after the death of former lead singer Bon Scott.
- "I Love Rock and Roll." One of the biggest hits from 1982, this Joan Jett and the Blackhearts classic and its unmistakable opening was actually first recorded by the Arrows in 1975. The song also represented, in 1982, a rock and roll response to disco that had been dominated popular music for the past several years.
- "Sunday Bloody Sunday." You could fill plenty of rock lists of the 80s with U2 songs, but this one, the opening track on the band's 1983 album "War," may sum up everything that's been great about U2 from the beginning. The video, shot during their famous Red Rocks concert, was a staple of early MTV.
- "Born in the U.S.A." The title song from the album that turned Bruce Springsteen from a rocker with a largely East Coast cult following into an international superstar who would fill stadiums for years to come, may not be everyone's favorite Boss track. But it was a huge hit and became a political hot button issue when President Ronald Reagan tried to use it as a patriotic anthem instead of the angry protest song it really is.
- "When Doves Cry." A hit for Prince from his "Purple Rain" album and movie, "When Doves Cry" puts you right in the center of 80s rock. It also cemented Prince as an 80s rock icon.
- "Money for Nothing." Dire Straits front man Mark Knopfler took the comments about MTV he overheard from a couple of appliance deliverymen and put them to music in one of the defining songs of the decade.
- "You Give Love a Bad Name." Bon Jovi started cranking out hits from their monster album "Slippery When Wet." This tune is about an emotionally wounded man who'd been "shot through the heart" by his former lover.
- "Sweet Child O' Mine." Guns-n-Roses closed out the 80's with one of the decade's biggest-selling albums, "Appetite for Destruction." "Sweet Child O' Mine" followed "Welcome to the Jungle" for one of the biggest rock songs of 1988.

The villa was designed by the architect Ladislav Žák as a two–family house with separate entrances into two vertically designed flats with mutually connected layouts. The renovation work was focused on the rehabilitation of the construction state as well as surface repairs. It also consisted of renewal and improvements to the architectural, operational and technical standard. We carried out the reconstruction work with a view to and respect for the architectural importance of the building. It essentially consisted of the renovation of the original appearance including the creation of remodels of the original elements and products. Unavoidable minor construction adaptations, due to current, mandatory operational and technical requirements, were kept to a minimum. Additionally, the design of the garden adhered to the original, assumed character in the spirit of the principles observed by Ladislav Žák. The house was built over the years 1937 – 38 by Jiří Palička for the family of the prominent city manager Karel Babka and his daughter, Lída Babková-Baarová.

Travel expenses: general: overseas conferences, seminars and study tours: example
A company that employs sales agents invites the most successful of them to an annual sales conference in Marbella. All expenses are paid by the company. The conference lasts for 7 days but there are only 2 formal sessions, a pep talk by the managing director and a seminar on sales technique. The rest of the programme consists of social events.
The benefit of the conference is chargeable under the benefits code (except for 2015/16 and earlier for employees in an excluded employment (see EIM20007)). No deduction from earnings can be permitted under any of Sections 337 to 339 ITEPA 2003. The cost is not incurred necessarily in the performance of the duties of the employment and the location of the conference is not a workplace, see EIM31950.

Pre-Existing Conditions Must Be Protected
The 115th Congress and the Trump Administration has made repealing the Affordable Care Act a top priority. For over 29 million U.S. families, this will be a devastating blow, as protections for those with pre-existing conditions, including diabetes, will disappear.
Did you know:
1 in 4 Americans have a pre-existing condition that could prevent them from obtaining health insurance coverage if the protections outlined in the Affordable Care Act are repealed and not replaced?
What do we lose?
– We lose the essential health benefits requirement and will lose the ability to ensure treatment, regardless of health condition.
– We lose lifetime or annual caps for specific medical conditions, like diabetes, forcing many families into medical bankruptcies or untenable financial healthcare decisions.
– We lose the equity of premium rates when being insured (if we are deemed insurable at all) and insurers can refuse to pay for our diabetes care if there is a lapse in continuous coverage.

|The current version of the Orient Express train.
Her characters weren't flat or one dimensional but rather began to reveal themselves rather plainly and enjoyably before the reader and even more plainly in front of the masterful intellect of Monsieur Poirot.
The basic plot is Poirot and a full cast of very different characters are on the Orient Express on their way back to Europe from the Middle East. The train gets stuck in a snow drift and one of the passengers winds up dead stabbed 12 times. Poirot is hired by his friend, who runs the train, to solve the mystery. He slowly, meticulously and rather brilliantly, I may add, goes through the evidence. He cannot rely on background checks but rather he has to read each of the cast of characters to figure out the culprit.
Because it is a mystery there is a reveal at the end as in any whodunit. So this is where the road stops for those readers who have not yet read the book or watched the film. You now enter at your own risk
First of all I must say Christie nearly outdoes herself in relation to And Then There Was None. She flips everything and yet keeps the status quo. Everyone is a suspect in both plots, in the latter it ends up being only one person in the plot at hand it is all of the people. They all took part in the murder of a man who held ransom the grandchild of a famous actress which caused the mother of the child to commit suicide. Each of the cast of characters either worked in the house of the family or were related to the people at hand. They knew the perpetrator would not receive justice so they enacted a communal justice to the man.
The question as a Catholic is two-fold: Who enacts justice? And is murder justifiable?
These people obviously thought it their duty, as citizens but also as people intimately connected to the victims, to enact justice where they saw justice due. Is it their role as private citizens to enact justice? Or is that the role of the state? I think the Church would lean toward the latter because the latter exists for the common good which includes the enactment of justice. When justice is taken into the hands of private citizens it inevitably leads to anarchy. Each person become his/her subjective arbiter of justice (not to say the state's arbitration of justice is totally objective, but that's another discussion).
Murder, under no circumstance, is justifiable. The end does not justify the means. The telos of any good human act must for the good, in an objective sense deriving from the goodness of God, of the person.
We can see here though that if not kept in the check sin can beget sin. Someone is the victim of a sinful action. If the response to that action is not in charity, one runs the fine line of following the footsteps of their oppressor/victimizer.

I?m afraid that they won?t be able to do that much longer, since YouTube has started muting videos that use unauthorized copyrighted music (and that pretty much means all user-created videos.)" http://mashable.com/2009/01/14/youtube-mutes-videos/

The security challenge in Borno State assumed a bizarre dimension yesterday with the seizure of 92-year-old elder statesman, Shettima Ali Monguno, by four gunmen suspected to be members of the Islamist sect, Boko Haram.
Shetimma Monguno was the Federal Commissioner for Petroleum, Mines and Power, in the Gowon military government.
A massive operation was immediately launched by the State Government and the Joint Task Force (JTF) to rescue him.
A report last night said he spoke by phone with his first son, Abubakar Ali Monguno.
"The abductors got in touch and they put my father through on the phone. He spoke to us and said that he was fine. They made a ransom demand," Abubakar told AFP but declined to give a figure.
He was abducted as he left a mosque he built in Mafoni Quarters close to the palace of Shehu of Borno in old Maiduguri Area.
The gunmen asked those with Monguno to get out of his Peugeot car before seizing him.
Other residents and relatives said that Monguno had stayed behind to greet well-wishers after prayers but was attacked shortly after entering his car.
A source said: "Although Monguno lives close to the Government House in Maiduguri, he has a house and a mosque built by him.
"So, on Friday, he decided to worship in his mosque but was kidnapped after the Jumat service.
"I think the ex-Minister felt that normalcy had returned to the area. That was why he went to worship there. He has been doing that for a while in order to meet with extended family members and preach peace.
"Monguno has been attending Friday prayers at his former residence in Mafoni, an area believed to have a high concentration of the sect members.
"During the 2009 crisis, the sect mounted road blocks in some parts of Maiduguri including Mafoni. Though Monguno moved to the GRA years ago, he maintained close contact with the extended family , family friends and neighbours while he lives in Mafoni. He has offered so much help to residents there through his charity works.
"He has over 100 children named after him on account of his generosity. Governor Shettima regularly goes to greet Monguno at his residence almost on a monthly basis.
"Monguno is chairman of the Borno elders' forum. Metings are mostly held at his residence and he has remained the face of Borno for many years.
Asked what he suspected to be the motive for the kidnap, the source said: "The sect perhaps realised how important Monguno is and hence could attract high ransom in exchange for his release.
"We are hopeful that the sect members are not likely to hurt the old man, more so since he has constantly advocated a peaceful resolution of the crisis and publicly called them sons of Borno parents while he regularly appealed to them to stop violence in the interest of poor persons who suffer as a result of the crisis."
Governor Kashim Shettima is said to be shocked by the kidnap.
He summoned a meeting of Borno elders to review the situation.
The source said: "Governor Kashim Shettima was obviously shocked and emotionally disturbed on receiving the news.
"The governor had just returned from the Jumat prayers himself and was scheduled to visit the Borno State Radio and Television House to inspect the station and interact with the management and staff of the station to mark the World Press Freedom Day. But the visit had to be cancelled because of the incident.
"A visibly worried Shettima was in tears yesterday. The Governor wondered why a 92-year old man who had dedicated his life to helping orphans, indigent widows and vulnerable children in the society, offering scholarships to children for even Islamic education, building Islamic schools, feeding the poor and even advocating for peaceful negotiation and amnesty for the sect's members would be so treated.
"Shettima immediately called members of the Monguno family and his security details to get first hand information on what happened. He thereafter started calling security chiefs and elders from the state and mobilised them for an emergency meeting that was to hold at the residence of Monguno a few metres away from the Government House.
"The meeting was aimed at making consultations to find a way of ensuring that Monguno was released urgently. He is optimistic Monguno will regain his freedom."
Another source said the governor had reached out to some people believed to be able to facilitate access to Boko Haram. One of such is Barrister Aisha Wakil, with whom he has been working in the last two years to find ways of negotiating with the sect members.
Mrs.Wakil is a member of the Presidential Committee on Dialogue with Boko Haram.
"The Governor is trying to establish the faction of the sect involved in the kidnap to know the appropriate step to take. He prefers persuasion as the number one option. I think he is likely to pass the same message to security officials so as not to jeopardise the old man's safety," the source said, adding: "the kidnap is likely targeted at a heavy ransom as the sect members are believed to have devised means of kidnapping persons, demanding ransom to finance their activities.
" The JTF, a few days ago, issued a statement warning that the Boko Haram members have perfected a strategy for kidnapping for ransom to fund their activities."
Monguno was among Borno elders who asked President Goodluck Jonathan to grant amnesty to Boko Haram members and withdraw soldiers from the streets in the state as part of the effort to restore peace to the area.
An educationalist, Monguno is a Commander of the Federal Republic (CFR).
He attended Monguno Primary School; Teachers' College, Bauchi; Katsina College of Arts, Science and Technology Zaria; Moray House College of Education and University of Edinburgh.
He was education secretary and councillor for education, works and social welfare, Borno Local Government 1959-65; Federal Commissioner for Air Force and Internal Affairs 1965-66; Federal Commissioner for Trade and Industries 1967-71 and Minister of Mines and Power 1971-75.

Here is my most known philosophical quote. It is from a screenplay that was written in 2001. This would be a good year for the quote to be circulated on facebook, myspace, LinkedIN etc. America's very first biblically illiterate generation has reached voting age and is ready to use its media-formed worldview to usher in the same apostasy and immorality that caused the fall of Rome. This would be a very bad year for Christian and conservative apathy to allow an ungodly victory in the upcoming elections.

If you use Drupal either in house or as part of a service to clients you're already aware of how versatile and useful it can be if utilised well. One of the benefits of using Drupal is that it's free, but there are other benefits available to you if you decide to join in with the community.
I'm approaching the 4 year mark at my agency and along with it my 4 year mark working with Drupal. It's been an interesting journey so far and I've learned a fair bit, but, as with anything in technology, there's still a great deal left to discover. This is my journey so far and a few key points I learned along the way.
For those Drupal devs new to submitting your own custom module to Drupal.org (as I am) you'll find a very well structured review process you have to pass first. The review process ensures your code is up to scratch and complies with Drupals coding standards.
Drupal is famous for its community, the collaborative effect of thousands of people working together to build a better product is amazing. Due to this it's no surprise that there are a fair few modules out there to help create a site with your own community. I recently had to do just that; tasked with creating a site centred around two groups of people interacting with various permission settings. Here are a few good modules I used.
