The Moroccan Pouf: Fad or Investment Piece?
19 comments:
My grandparents have Moroccan poufs since I was a child. If they were in style 26 years ago and still are today, I'd say it's an investment piece.ReplyDelete
I still love the pouf!! Always have, always will. Fabulous post!ReplyDelete
I have been wondering the exact same thing. Especially due to Furbish now carrying them in a gorgeous luggage brown color. Still can't quite decide what I think.ReplyDelete
I orginally thought fad, but I'm coming around to fab:) I kinda want one!ReplyDelete

Like the look but I'm going to go with-Fad. I know it's been reintroduced a few years ago but I think it will fade out and then come back at a later date.ReplyDelete
I think fad...especially the bright colored/metallic poufs. Maybe a nice brown or black pouf can stand the test of time though. Although, I don't think they are practical enough to warrant spending that kind of cash on one!ReplyDelete
They are just to cute to give up.ReplyDelete
Eh, they're cute and all, but I think they're a fad anywhere except Morocco.ReplyDelete
Glad you posted about this. I have had one sitting in my Serena & Lily shopping cart for months now! Love them.ReplyDelete
I've been thinking about this forever. Too pricey for me if it's a fad... but those pictures make me want one even more!ReplyDelete
Thanks so much for including Pieces. The poofs have been flying out the door! Let us know if you need any:)ReplyDelete
I like the pouf! It is fun and interesting. Do you think they are actually comfortable, or just good looking? Who knows! I usually fall in love with looks anyways.ReplyDelete
I fell in love with these poufs the very first time I saw them, too bad I'm living in the middle of nowhere, otherwise I would totally get one! ;)ReplyDelete
I still love these -- have several peppered about the house.ReplyDelete
I think they lend just that touch of casual yet glam exotica that can real up the wham-bam in a room.
If you search on Ebay, you'll find these exact same poufs for about $140. A friend of mine is about to order a pair in hot pink.
Nero says go for it and enjoy the things you love.
Cheers, Alcira
I love that natural toned pouf from Pieces - great find!ReplyDelete
I don't know about poufs. I think they're completely adorable and if you really love it, then it's not going to go out of style in your house.ReplyDelete
However, I can't imaging sitting on one comfortably - they're just too low to the ground. Especially since they're often touted as "extra seating." So when your guests are all dressed up for a party at your house, you're going to make them have to figure out how to gracefully get down that low? It's like a glorified floor pillow.
This is why I like garden seats. They're sturdy enough to use as an end table and usually tall enough to be proper seating.

My mom brought us a couple back from their last visit to Turkey and we love it. Ours are hard to keep filled to keep the structure looking tall....but our dogs love them. They are a great decorative dog bed. : )ReplyDelete
Want a low-commitment price? Target will be carrying them this summer as part of their Calypso collection. I think they're about $59!ReplyDelete
Imports from Marrakesh is delighted to be included in your blog...FYI our traditional poufs are $150 to $200.00. Handmade & they last for years!ReplyDelete

Rabobank: Historically High Stock Levels in Australia
As planting of the Australian wheat crop wraps up, any prospect of a significant recovery in global wheat prices in the 2017/18 season remains dampened by the high stocks-to-use (S/U) ratio, according to agribusiness banking specialist Rabobank.
In light of this, Rabobank is forecasting CBOT wheat prices to increase only marginally over the coming 12 months – in the vicinity of 10 to 15% – to reach US490c/bushel by mid-2018.
In its recently-released industry report "Australian wheat outlook 2017/18 – the high-stocks game continues", Rabobank says with Australian wheat stocks also at historically high levels, the greatest prospect for local prices is the likely depreciation of the Australian dollar, which should push prices into firmer territory over the next 12 months.
The report's author, Rabobank senior grains analyst Cheryl Kalisch Gordon, says the "world is awash with wheat" with the global S/U ratio (defined as the level of carryover stocks as a percentage of total use) now at 33%, well above its historical average of 29%.
"To see the global grains market return to an S/U ratio of 29% – which is considered the point that delivers more attractive prices – we would need to see global production fall by 29 million tones this season," she says.
"While the US have cut their wheat planted acreage to its lowest level in 100 years, it would take a significant production failure in one or more major supply regions to see the market start to recover strongly."
Dr Kalisch Gordon says while wheat acreage around the world is fairly static, up just 1% in the past five years, it is the yield advancements in Russia and the Ukraine, and also parts of the EU that is driving the increase in global wheat production. World wheat yields are now estimated to be around 8% higher than they were five years ago.
With global wheat production increasing by around 3% each year (in the five year period to 2015/16), it has "well-and-truly outstripped growth in demand, with consumption only growing by an average annual rate of just under 2% during the same period", she says.
The report says with "much of the stock accumulation occurring in China", Chinese wheat stocks need to be "at least partially taken out of the equation" when looking at global market price dynamics.
"Stocks in China account for around 45% of global wheat stocks, with China holding an estimated 100 million tonnes in storage at the start of 2016/17," Dr Kalisch Gordon says.
Dr Kalisch Gordon says even if China was to be removed from the equation, the global S/U is still 25% higher than its 10-year average, indicating just how high stock levels are around the world.
The report says Australia is heading into the 2017/18 season with high wheat stocks, estimated at close to 8 million tonnes, the highest level for almost 20 years.

Delicious British Snacks
Delicious British Snacks
Every country has their own unique group of snacks. No matter where you go, you will always find amazing and unique snacks. Britain is no different. While many people may think that all Caucasians eat the same style of food, this is not the case. American food and British food is quite different. Britain has a large assortment of snacks that are not even found anywhere in America!
Aero is a wonderfully flavoured chocolate snack. The inside is filled with air bubbles containing various flavours. The most common flavour is mint, but there are a number of others as well. The combination of this flavour with the chocolate just melts in your mouth! Absolutely delicious!
Another famous chocolate snack from Britain is the Flake. This chocolate is purely chocolate with no added centre. The uniqueness of this chocolate Flake is that it is made up of strands of loosely connected chocolate 'flakes'. This way when you take a bite out of a Flake, the strands break apart and melt in your mouth, giving you a soft, rich flavour that will stay in your mouth for quite some time. It is a tradition in Britain to place one of these chocolate Flakes into ice cream; this is both aesthetically pleasing as well as a delicious combination. You can't go wrong with chocolate and ice cream!
Kinder Surprise
Yet another chocolate snack; are you seeing a pattern? This one is great for both children and adults alike! A kinder surprise is shaped like an egg but hollowed out in the middle. After you eat through the chocolate egg you will find the surprise; a cute little toy! A kinder surprise tastes delicious! If you are a father, just suggest to your wife that you will buy a toy for your toddler. She won't suspect a thing! (Well, unless she's seen them before.)
Walker's Crisps
Crisps, or potato chips depending on where you are from, are very popular in Britain. One of the more unusual of these is the Walker's Shrimp Cocktail crisp. The flavour profile was literally taken from a 1970s cocktail party, merging the cocktail flavour with shrimp. As for how or why this worked, nobody really knows! The important thing is that it did and they taste amazing!
Ribena is actually a snack-like beverage. Made primarily of blackcurrants, this drink is loved by most if not all British people! Have a sweet taste with a sour kick to it makes it quite unique. Regardless of the fact that it is quite different from most snack-like drinks, it still has a brilliant taste that is hard to hate!
Salt and Vinegar Crisps
Heading back to the crispy side of things, an extremely popular flavour of crisp in Britain is salt and vinegar. These crisps are salty, but not overly so thanks to the vinegar contained within. The combination of flavours leaves you desperate for the next crisp; however, by the time you've downed a bag you're going to need a large glass of water!

The film, entitled "The Electric Cartoon! In a Driving School At Night", features young drivers experiencing EVs for the first time. Their reactions, thoughts and feelings are reflected in real-time word animations projected around the on-road Nissan Leaf.
The car used in the project features a driver's headset that reads and analyses brainwaves produced while driving. There are 33 visual patterns used to express the drivers' various states of mind. Driver brainwaves and projected animations are automatically matched, and visualisations are in a cartoon-style with speech and thought bubbles.
In this project, the brainwaves of 30 men and women were measured while driving the Nissan Leaf in various situations. In brain science, alpha waves are emitted when the brain relaxes and concentrates, while beta waves are produced when the brain feels tension or is excited.
In this project, alpha waves were defined as brainwaves emitted when the brain is in a conformable state, and beta waves as those when the brain is in an excited state.
As a result, about half of those taking part emitted beta waves when starting the EVs and more than 90 percent emitted a significant quantity of alpha waves when turning road corners, said the company.

There is one part of Trump's apology that angers me.
Who am I angry at?
The likes of Erick Erickson and every other NeverTrump simpleton.
Listen to this part:
Is Trump suckering me?
I don't think so. What he says here has actually strengthened my support for this man. Many people go to Washington and are changed, for the worse. Whether they are steamrolled by a savvy career politician, or they are simply seeing the big time for the first time in their lives and are seduced by opportunity, we've been disappointed time and time again.
Trump has been in the fast lane his entire life. I believe him when he says that the tour of America has changed him. I think we're looking at a man, at the age of 70, that is not in this to "grab pussy," but is truly interested in trying to provide Americans with the opportunity to pursue happiness on an even playing field, without the hammer of our government, or the new world order, keeping us down.
NeverTrump is not open to this possibility. Their heads pop off the pillow every morning thinking,
"how do I get Trump for what he has done to…. to…. how do I get Trump?"
Hillary waiting in the wings means nothing to these bastards.

Yesterday I finally got the chance to see the young and talented Mr. Sam Smith perform live at the People's Place in Amsterdam. This of course was a great way to spend my Wednesday evening! The second Sam Smith started singing I thought: "Pshht that's exactly what I sound like when I sing in the shower every morning". Ok… that wasn't really my thought and I so desperately wish I had even 1% of Sam Smith's singing ability! I mean seriously, what did he drink when growing up and where can I get it?!
The first song he started with was the beautiful 'Nirvana', which I had on repeat for a long time. When I closed my eyes it felt just like I was listening to the record at home. He was able to nail all the difficult notes perfectly during each song. Without even blinking, as if it was the easiest thing in the world. This 22-year-old singer has definitely been blessed with a wonderful voice and I am glad he has the chance to share it with the world. He performed some songs we already were familiar with but also some new ones like 'Leave your lover', which will be featured on his debut album 'In The Lonely Hour'. This European Spring tour of his has been very successful thus far and every performance has been sold out. Take a look at samsmithworld.com to see if he will be performing near you in the future and make sure you get your tickets quickly. He's worth it, trust me. Here are some videos to give you an impression of last night's performance (footage is a bit shaky because it was too crowded and there was always somebody pushing me by accident):
1. Nirvana
2. Leave Your Lover
3. Money On My Mind
4. Lay Me Down
5. Stay With Me

w32topl.dll Error Fix
What is a DLL?
DLL (Dynamic Link Library) files contain computer code and resources that can be used by multiple programs at the same time. This uses less system memory and helps your computer system run more efficiently. DLL files give program developers the ability to reuse code to add features to several programs without the need to write new code for each program.
There are many programs that require DLL files to function properly so when one of them is damaged or missing it will cause program crashes and poor system performance.
What is w32topl.dll?
The w32topl.dll file is a component of the W32topl Component for various Microsoft Windows Operating Systems. The module w32topl.dll is the Windows Topology Maintenance Tool. It is a command line utility utilized for configuring, monitoring, and controlling the Windows Time Service also known as W32Time. The configuration modifications made in the Windows Time Service or in the registry may be sent to the w32topl.dll file while it is actively running.
The module w32topl.dll can also be used to make a diagnosis of the health condition of the Windows Time Service. The DLL file can be used to remotely monitor machines as well. Logs can also be generated by the module w32topl.dll that can effortlessly be changed to .csv files which stands for comma separated values. The w32topl.dll file control mechanism enables administrators to resynchronize a time server remotely. The w32topl.dll does not utilize services for its functions. It is also not associated with other components and its settings are not configurable.
The Windows Time Service which the w32topl.dll monitors is an integrated service in Microsoft Windows operating systems. The W32Time service's primary responsibility is to synchronize an authoritative time server with a time source outside the system. The said time server is a domain controller that utilizes the W32Time service for making certain that the computer system's time and date settings are accurately synchronized throughout a group of computer systems. Registry settings of the Windows Time Service can be found in the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ SYSTEM CurrentControlSet/ Services/ W32Time/ Parameters.
Recommended fix if you are experiencing w32topl.dll error messages:
DLL files are important parts of your operating system and many programs require them to function. When these files become damaged or are missing it causes poor system performance and system crashes. To fix these problems the user must replace the damaged file with a valid working version. If a working version cannot be found the user may perform a reinstallation of their operating system.

Allamah Fultali Sahib Qiblah [rahimahulLah], at the end of his bayan, would give the following nasiha [advice] to his murids [disciples]:
"Heed my word carefully. Along with nafal 'ibadah [supererogatory worship], be of assistance to people. Be exemplary in your behaviour towards your fellow human beings. This will result in success in this life and the life to come. Good behaviour towards fellow human beings is loved by ALlah Ta'ala. Be respectful towards your elders and merciful towards the ones who are younger then you. This was the way of the Holy Prophet [salla'Llahu 'alayhi wa sallam].
When you see prosperity in others, show happiness. For whosoever shows happiness when they see success in others, ALlah Ta'ala will reward them with success and strengthen their iman [faith]. Someone who, upon seeing success in others, feels discontent, ALlah Ta'ala will lower his status and humiliate him. Do not harbour ill thoughts towards your fellow human beings. Instead see others in positive light, otherwise enviousness of other people's success will nullify the extent of your own 'ibadah [worship].
Perform the five daily salah [prayer] diligently. There is only one act that will result in success, both in this life and the life to come: that is the act of salah. Whoever prays salah with utmost attention, he will find tranquillity and peace in his life. Perform ruku [bowing] and sajdah [prostration] with utmost humility. When we perform ruku and sajdah, we bow down our head and place it on the ground. Whoever does this, seeking only the pleasure of ALlah Ta'ala, he will not be disgraced in this life and will be granted a lofty status here and in the hereafter.
With every breath you take, make it a habit to synchronise it with the shahadah. When you inhale, utter "la ilaha" [there is no god], and when you exhale, say "illaLlah" [except ALlah]. Do this without moving your mouth or tongue. Keep in mind that with every breath you take, it is one less from that which has been prescribed for you. Dhikr [remembrance] of ALlah in this manner will bring you much benefit. Continuous practice in this manner will become a habit. If you remember ALlah Ta'ala once, He will also 'remember' you once. Know this: the sound of dhikr goes directly to the 'Arsh [Throne] of ALlah Ta'ala.
After each salah, remain sitting and bring into your mind: "ALlah Ta'la is in 'front' of me and He is 'watching' me" and perform dhikr. When you go to sleep, do dhikr, this will be written in your book of deeds as if you have done dhikr all night long. Recite darud sharif [sending blessings upon the Noble Messenger salla'Llahu 'alayhi wa sallam] everyday, a minimum of two hundred times and istighfar sharif [seeking forgiveness] one hundred times. If you can, then recite darud sharif even more."

It happened so fast Robert Maiman lost all sense of time and continuity.
He and his partner, Dave Stephens, were skiing up the Athabasca Glacier on approach to the Columbia Icefield in the Rockies for a four-day ski mountaineering trip in May, 2001. Deteriorating weather left visibility just sufficient enough for the pair to navigate through the gauntlet below the cliffs of Snow Dome to the north — a site that regularly sends giant chunks of serac ice crashing onto the glacier below — and the crevasse-riddled icefall to the south. Despite having the third member of the group cancel at the last minute, and knowing the added risk of being just two on the glacier rope, the pair, who had skied the route before, decided to go anyway. With their camping gear carried by two, rather than three, their packs each weighed 30 kilograms. Thirty centimetres of fresh snow and a howling wind made travel difficult as they skinned uphill.
Skiing in the lead, suddenly Maiman's world turned dark.
"It was so abrupt; it was a complete loss of orientation, of all reality," Maiman recalled. "I was fully conscious, but everything was black. It all happened in a matter of seconds, and I was looking for clues. Then I saw a glimmer of light out of my left eye, and I realized I had my goggles on, and that was making everything darker. I started putting two and two together — I'm falling! Why am I falling? I saw the bottom of the crevasse rushing up to meet me and YANK! The rope stopped my fall and I slammed into the crevasse wall about five metres above a ledge."
Dangling in the cold dark space with his skis still on, Maiman felt sharp pain as he hung in his harness with the heavy pack on his back.
On the surface, Stephens watched in disbelief as Maiman disappeared and the rope connecting them zippered into the glacier, stopping just three metres ahead of him. Quickly Stephens built an anchor, securing Maiman from falling any deeper.
"To say I was freaked would be an understatement," Maiman said. Collecting his thoughts, he inserted an ice screw into the crevasse wall and managed to remove his pack and hang it from the screw.
"Taking off the skis turned out to be quite a chore as well," he said. "I figured I was about 12 metres from the sunlight above. I was in a slot about 20 metres deep, 12 metres long and two metres wide. Wild ice sculptures at either end and above made me cringe. I could see that the reason I fell so far was because we had been skiing parallel to this crevasse."

Creating the required attraction for your potential users towards your website is too difficult. While snatching their interests to retain them on your site is more difficult. For keeping that potential customers' annoyance to the minimal level, it is important to design your website in a way that catches their interests.

Following are some of the main aspects that must be eliminated in your web solutions Dubai based web design and development process to reduce the bounce rate of your website.
Avoid using scattered navigation links and unclear visual elements that do not present a flawless clue for what a user need to do next. Instead, use a logical, easy to understand and an intuitive navigation for users to guide. The navigation needs to be grouped together in navigation elements in a central area.
Suffocating users with the ads that pop-up every now and then and fill out the whole screen is the main cause of increase bounce rate. Use them in a flawless and legitimate way that can attract users. Contents must never be covered up with ads. Use a discrete and tasteful approach for ads usage.
The conversation of user's with your website and their retention rate can easily be destroyed when a bad content structure is used. Users must easily find what they have visited your website for and what they are looking.
Avoid distributing them on multiple pages if they can possibly be adjusted on a single page. Introductory contents must always be included. Similar contents must be grouped together in a clear and concise way. Use bold heading and highlight the expected searching elements of users.
Reduced bounce rate is a ranking factor for Google to place your website on a higher level. In a competitive environment such as USA or UAE business industry, the higher bounce rate is a challenging factor for owners to deal with.

Presumably to celebrate the launch of the Awakening DLC pack on Xbox One and PC, Treyarch has officially announced that they will be initiating a double weapon XP event on Black Ops 3 starting tomorrow, March 4th. This event is set to conclude the following Monday, March 7th.
These events are especially useful for players that are attempting to get their weapons to higher levels to unlock additional attachments. As you progress the overall level of each gun, you earn the ability to use things like Extended Mag, Rapid Fire, various optics, and more.
While this doesn't directly help to rank up your character, it's still useful for reaching new levels because as you unlock weapon attachments you actually gain bonus experience. So, in a way, you'll still be able to level up a bit faster in general as well. The event is, however, primarily designed to help you make some serious headway on your favorite weapons.
Be sure to set aside some time this weekend to take advantage of the double weapon XP. The event kicks off at 10am PST on Friday and will end at the same time on Monday.

Key anti-al-Qaida sheik slain in Iraq
Yahoo News, Sept 13, 2007
By ROBERT H. REID, Associated Press Writer 27 minutes ago
BAGHDAD – The assassination Thursday of the leader of the Sunni Arab revolt against al-Qaida militants dealt a setback to one of the few success stories in U.S. efforts to stabilize Iraq, but tribesmen in Anbar province vowed not to be deterred in fighting the terror movement.
American and Iraqi officials hoped the death of Abdul-Sattar Abu Risha would not stall the campaign to drive al-Qaida in Iraq from the vast province spreading west of Baghdad and reconcile Sunnis with the Shiite-led national government.
It was the biggest blow to the Anbar tribal alliance since a suicide bomber killed four anti-al-Qaida sheiks as they met in a Baghdad hotel in June. Abu Risha himself had escaped a suicide attack in February. But those attacks and others did not stop the campaign against al-Qaida.
Abu Risha, head of the Anbar Awakening Council who met with President Bush just 10 days earlier, died when a roadside bomb exploded near his home just west of Ramadi as he returned from his farm, police Col. Tareq Youssef said. Two bodyguards and the driver also were killed.
Moments later a car bomb exploded nearby but caused no casualties. An Interior Ministry spokesman, Maj. Gen. Abdul-Karim Khalaf, said the second bomb was intended as a backup in case Abu Risha escaped the first blast.
The attack occurred one year after the goateed, charismatic, chain-smoking young sheik organized 25 Sunni Arab clans into an alliance against al-Qaida in Iraq, seeking to drive the terror movement from sanctuaries where it had flourished after the U.S.-led invasion in 2003.
No group claimed responsibility for the assassination, but it was widely assumed to have been carried out by al-Qaida, which already had killed four of Abu Risha's brothers and six other relatives for working with the U.S. military.
U.S. officials credit Abu Risha and allied sheiks with a dramatic improvement in security in such Anbar flashpoints as Fallujah and Ramadi after years of American failure to subdue the extremists. U.S. officials now talk of using the Anbar model to organize tribal fighters elsewhere in Iraq.
Abu Risha's allies as well as U.S. and Iraqi officials insisted the assassination would not deter them from fighting al-Qaida, and the tribal alliance appears to have gained enough momentum to survive the loss of a single figure, no matter how key. Late Thursday, Abu Risha's brother, Ahmed, was selected to replace him as head of the council.
Still, the loss of such a charismatic leader is bound to complicate efforts to recruit more tribal leaders in the war against the terror network. Two Pentagon officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about the matter, said the assassination sent a chilling message about the consequences of cooperating with the Americans.
"This is a criminal act and al-Qaida is behind it," said Sheik Jubeir Rashid, a senior member of Abu Risha's council. "We have to admit that it is a major blow to the council. But we are determined to strike back and continue our work. Such attack was expected, but this will not deter us."
Ali Hatem al-Sulaiman, deputy chief of the province's biggest Sunni tribe, said that if "only one small boy remains alive in Anbar, we will not hand the province over to al-Qaida."
Islamic extremist Web sites praised the killing in a flurry of postings, one of which called Abu Risha "one of the biggest pigs of the Crusaders," meaning the Americans. Another said Abu Risha would spend the Muslim holy month of Ramadan "in the pits of hell."
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, a Shiite who had been reluctant to support Abu Risha, expressed "great sorrow" over the killing, but said he was confident "that this criminal act will strengthen the determination of Anbar people to wipe out the terrorists."
During a visit Sept. 3 to al-Asad Air Base, Bush hailed the courage of Abu Risha and others "who have made a decision to reject violence and murder in return for moderation and peace."
"I'm looking forward to hearing from the tribal leaders who led the fight against the terrorists and are now leading the effort to rebuild their communities," Bush said. "I'm going to reassure them that America does not abandon our friends, and America will not abandon the Iraqi people."
In his appearance before Congress this week to testify about the situation in Iraq, the top U.S. military commander, Gen. David Petraeus, often cited the recent success in Anbar of the forces organized by Abu Risha, and he called the leader's killing tragic.
"It's a terrible loss for Anbar province and all of Iraq," Petraeus said in a statement released in Washington. "It shows how significant his importance was and it shows al-Qaida in Iraq remains a very dangerous and barbaric enemy. He was an organizing force that did help organize alliances and did help keep the various tribes together."
Bush spokeswoman Dana Perino said Abu Risha "was one of the first to come forward to want to work with the United States to repel al-Qaida."
She said U.S. officials would "redouble our efforts" to work with local Iraqis to build support against those behind such killings. "There has been a complete shift in attitude over the past year or so and we have to capitalize on that," Perino said.
It was unclear how the killers managed to penetrate the web of security which protected Abu Risha, suggesting someone in his clan might have turned against him.
Abu Risha, who was in his mid-30s, lived in a walled compound of several villas that were home to him and his extended family, across the street from the largest U.S. military base in Ramadi. Within the walls were camels, other animals and palm trees, which he showed off to visitors.
He spent his days meeting with tribal sheiks, discussing the fate of Anbar and al-Qaida. He was constantly busy, with lines of people waiting to speak to him, and took endless calls on his cell phone.
He smoked profusely and drank endless glasses of sweet tea. He carried a pistol, usually stuck in a holster strapped around his waist, and dressed in traditional flowing robes and headdresses.
Many Ramadi residents reacted with shock and sadness, calling Abu Risha a "hero" who helped pacify their city.
"We were able to reopen our shops and send our children back to school," said Alaa Abid, who owns an auto parts store. "Now we're afraid that the black days of al-Qaida will return to our city."
A U.S. general, meanwhile, said a fatal attack on the headquarters garrison of the American military in Iraq this week was carried out with 240 mm rocket — a type of weapon that he said Iran provides to Shiite extremists.
One person was killed and 11 were wounded in the attack Tuesday outside Baghdad at Camp Victory, which includes the headquarters of Multinational Forces-Iraq.
Maj. Gen. Kevin Bergner said the rocket was launched from the Rasheed district of west Baghdad, which he said was infiltrated by breakaway factions of the Mahdi Army militia of Muqtada al-Sadr.
Displaying a twisted piece of shrapnel from the attack, Bergner said military experts had so far determined only that its markings and manufacture were "consistent with" Iranian-produced munitions.
"Can I hold up a piece of fragment today that has a specific marking on it that traces this back to Iranian making?" he said. "At this moment I can't do that, but explosive experts — as I said — are still analyzing all the different fragments that they have gathered."

For their latest essential seven-inch single, the Dynamite Cuts crew has raided Chicago Gangsters' 1975 debut album, "Blind Over You". Neither of the two tracks on offer has been featured on a "45" before. On the A-side you'll find "Gangster Boogie", a seriously heavy, Clavinet and saxophone-laden funk wriggler whose snappy drum break has appeared on numerous hip-hop jams over the years (including LL Cool J's "Mama Said Knock You Out"). On the flip you'll find the even more riotous and life-affirming funk-rock masterpiece "Why Did You Do It". Rich in rasping horns, wild organ lines and gnarly guitar riffs, it's just crying out to be played loud over a heavy soundsystem.

Department of State Cuts Ribbon on Warren-Washington County Emergency Services Training and Educational Center
Deputy Secretary of State for Local Government Dierdre "Dede" Scozzafava was joined today by Warren and Washington county officials and community leaders for the official opening of the Warren-Washington County Emergency Services Training and Educational Center in Queensbury, N.Y.
With the assistance of a grant from New York State's Department of State, the counties today officially opened the first phase of the emergency services training facility. This new facility will allow for the delivery of focused training for nearly 50 fire departments and numerous emergency services operations throughout the North Country. This project is expected to help keep firefighters' training up-to-date and boost membership in local fire departments.
"We are committed to ensuring efficiency and expediency in local government by encouraging consolidation and sharing of resources to better serve the people of our state," said New York Secretary of State Cesar A. Perales. "This new facility is a great example of what's possible when communities work together for the benefit of its residents. On behalf of Governor Cuomo, I commend county representatives on their dedication to making this project a reality."
"Cooperation is critical to the success of all New York. I witnessed it firsthand in the aftermath of last year's devastating storms," said Deputy Secretary of State Scozzafava. "The fire departments and emergency services facility in Warren and Washington County will serve as a model for other counties that will foster greater intermunicipal cooperation while lightening the burden of our local heroes who otherwise would have to travel far from home to take advantage of what will continue to grow here."
Warren and Washington counties were declared state emergency disaster areas in 2005 due to the exceptionally high number of fatal boating accidents, mud slides, dam breaks and fires and again in 2011 after Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee. As a result, Warren and Washington Counties agreed to work together cooperatively to build a shared emergency training center, which would provide a jointly operated inter-municipal facility to provide training services to benefit both counties.
In 2006, the New York Department of State awarded the counties a $400,000 grant to initiate planning and engineering of a multi-county emergency services training facility and to acquire a Mask Confidence Building for firefighters training. Nearly 75% of the grant helped pay for planning, design, environmental studies and engineering at the site, about 25% of the grant funds were used by the counties to acquire the focal point of phase one, a Mask Confidence Building that firefighters will train in.
"Warren County is pleased to partner with Washington County on this important project. It is vital that we provide our local emergency responders with a training facility that will help prepare them to respond both safely and effectively. We again thank our emergency responders for their service to our community." stated Warren County Board of Supervisor's Chairman Dan Stec.
"I have been involved with the Fire Service for a little over 43 yrs. and for 40 of those years I have heard of and seen committees on a Training Center come and go due to lack of funding, location and whatever else. Then when the Department of State grant became available it gave new life to a possible Training Center and here we are today. I find it to be very humbling and yet an honor to be a part of this exciting project for the Emergency Service of Warren and Washington County," stated Ray Rathbum, Fire Coordinator for Washington County.
"We're pleased to have this new facility available to our firefighters and other emergency responders in both Washington and Warren Counties," stated Washington County Board of Supervisor's Chairman John Rymph. "This project is a good example of communities coming together for the benefit of all."
The Emergency Training Center is a modular structure built from used steel shipping containers. This new training building uses theatrical smoke and props to provide appropriate training for firefighters instead of using open flame tactics. In addition, moveable walls will give instructors the ability to introduce unanticipated changes to the building to simulate the changes experienced during a fire or other emergency.

Dana Oland: Origami blends math, art and tradition at the Boise Art Museum
A single sheet of paper can become anything in the hands of an origami artist. Just fold it, and fold again, and again, and so on and the potential is endless, says Robert J. Lang, one of the origami artists whose work is featured in " Folding Paper: The Infinite Possibilities of Origami" that's opening at the Boise Art Museum. You can meet the show's curator Meher McArthur at an opening reception Oct. 23.
Origami is an art form filled with elegance and beauty, Lang says.
"There are always new boundaries and new creations that might seem impossible. It's an endless series of puzzles and accomplishments," Lang says.
Lang worked as an adviser for this exhibition and wrote an introductory essay in the catalog. He's one of 43 master-folders from around the globe who created figures and shapes that range from intriguing to mind-blowing for this exhibit.
Lang got hooked at age 6 by following a pattern in a magazine. At 10, he did his first original design. The art form continued to captivate him while he studied electrical engineering and applied physics in college and when he worked as a physicist at the California Institute of Technology. He turned to origami full time in 2001. His works are in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Mass.
On the side, he now does research for the Washington State University and consults on projects that apply origami techniques to real-world problems.
Origami originated in Japan. Buddhist monks brought paper from China in the 6th century. An extreme luxury item, the "oru kami," or "paper folding," began as a ceremonial activity in the 17th century.
It grew in popularity in the U.S. in the 1950s when origami cranes became a symbol of world peace. Then, in the 1960s, grandmaster folder Akira Yoshizawa's universal origami instructional code became known in the U.S.
"By using the same system, origami artists had a common language," Lang says. "They shared ideas and built off of each other and expanded the world of origami."
New patterns and techniques emerged as the calculations behind it became broader. In the 1990s, the math and engineering that govern origami began influencing other fields. Today, origami is used to create everything from robotics to satellite solar arrays to auto air bags.
The show also includes origami-related woodblock prints, photograph murals and videos.
Robert Lang talks about math and the relationship to origami.

How was born of your artistic project Art baby girl, what's the concept behind it?
I wanted a platform to exhibit work made by my friends and peers who were at the beginning of their artistic careers. So when I graduated college I couldn't afford to open an actual gallery, so I turned to the internet.
Which is the relationship between your crew and internet?
It's awesome, after years of being internet friends now that I travel a lot for work I'm able to meet & hang out with and become good friends with artists I've only known online.
Tell us whats art for you and your crew…
I can't speak about what art means for anyone besides myself, it's a medium through which I find empowerment & pleasure and Art Baby Gallery aims to be a platform for others to feel comfortable to do that as well
What makes you different from other women's groups?
Art Baby isn't a "women's group" I showcase work primarily made by females but I have also curated cis men & non-binary artists as well. I'm not interested in purposely excluding any type of person, but I also just happen to not be interested in most work made by straight cis white men.
A source of inspiration in the creation of your website
It was the only type of gallery I was able to create at the time, design wise it is very influenced by basic web design I learned as a teenager on livejournal.com
Which are the aims of your group?
To provide a platform for artists who are traditionally underrepresented in the art world, and to encourage creativity
What means for you the phrase "Girl Power"
It's a watered down term to make feminism more appealing to the general public, theres nothing wrong with the phrase but feminism is much more than just "Girl Power".
Tell us how you initially form your group
I've been reaching out to & connecting with artists on the internet for years, so my network of people who I collaborate with naturally has grown over time
Is there a new artist that you should keep an eye on?
Maya Martinez is an artist from Baltimore who I'm really excited to start working with, she will be the next artist exhibiting on Art Baby Gallery.

Navy Coastal Patrol Ships Leave Va. Base
Two Navy ships used for coastal patrols, interdiction and surveillance set sail Saturday for the war on terror.
Navy Petty Officer Paul Taylor said the USS Chinook and USS Firebolt left the Little Creek Naval Amphibious Base, to join the war on terror. He declined to say where the ships were headed or how long they would be gone.
Each ship is about 170 feet long and is carrying about 30 sailors based at Little Creek. The ships received deployment orders Jan. 10, along with three amphibious ships _ the USS Saipan, USS Gunston Hall and USS Ponce _ that departed that day.

Surveillance footage of lost iPhone 5 prototype automatically erasedExisting surveillance footage that could have offered answers to questions about an iPhone 5 prototype that went missing this summer has been automatically erased before being viewed by police investigators.
The recordings have been deleted in an automatic process after the hard drive storing the images reached full capacity, CNet reports. The drive contained footage from six surveillance cameras placed inside the Cava 22 bar where an Apple employee reportedly forgot a next-gen iPhone prototype on July 22.
But, the cameras do not record continuous video. Instead they take pictures roughly 3 minutes apart, which are then saved locally for a limited amount of time. On top of the gaps between recordings, sections of the bar are poorly lit. As such, these factors suggest the deleted surveillance footage may have not provided much insight into the matter even if retrieved in time.
The San Francisco Police Department recently requested access to the available recordings while looking into the role police officers played during Apples unofficial investigation of the situation. Jose Valle, whose family owns Cava 22, was unavailable when the police first asked for the available video recordings. He then contacted SFPD, but police officials have yet follow up on their investigation.
Cupertino, Calif.-based Apple has not filed a police report, though it did conduct a search of a house in the Bernal Heights neighborhood on July 24 after tracking the missing iPhone to that location. Apple personnel allegedly performed the search of Sergio Calderons home, car and computer under police supervision. SFPD has said that the officers were not part of the actual search.

At this time, it remains unknown what happened to the lost iPhone prototype. In the two months since the event, images of the missing device or the actual unit do not appear to have made their way to the press ahead of the announcement of a new iPhone. Apple is expected to unveil at least one fifth-generation iPhone on Tuesday at 10 a.m. PDT.
This year's lost prototype fiasco oddly mirrors a similar situation from last year. In early 2010, an iPhone 4 test unit disguised as an iPhone 3GS was left in a German beer garden in California and ended up being purchased by a blog. Images of the prototype and a review of the pre-release unit were then published a few months ahead of the official iPhone 4 media event. The investigation in that case has been completed and the two suspects alleged to have found last years iPhone prototype have recently pleaded not guilty in an ongoing trial.

Last Chance for The Oval!
BY MOLLIE CUSACK (www.mollie.searchphillylistings.com)
If you have driven by the Art Museum recently, you have probably noticed the large groups of people partaking in the events happening at the Oval. All summer the pop-up outdoor space has acted as an eight-acre oasis which serves as a beer garden, food truck round-up, family fun center, and workout zone.
Now that summer is coming to an end, the Oval will return to a parking lot, but not until after this weekend. The weather is supposed to be gorgeous on Saturday so make sure to stop by and grab a drink at the beer garden and some food at vendors like Waffles & Wedges, The Cow and the Curd and The Tot Cart.
On your way to the Oval, be sure to check out my Open House on Saturday from 12pm – 4pm at 834 N 27th Street, in the Fairmount section of Philadelphia. The four-bedroom property is located on a tree lined street and offers an open floor plan, with original charm. For more information about the property or other listings in the area check out my website and contact me with any questions.

I. A number of hazards exist which could have a severe impact on the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Metropolitan Nashville and Davidson County; and
II. Tennessee Code Annotated §§ 58-2-101 et seq. and Chapter 2.08 of the Metropolitan Code of Laws specify the emergency powers of the Metropolitan Mayor as a result of a declaration of a state of civil emergency within the boundaries of Metropolitan Nashville and Davidson County; and
III. Implementing these powers constitutes extraordinary action and extreme care must be taken to exercise these powers appropriately;

The Office of Emergency Management is to be kept fully apprised of any and all threatening conditions that could escalate into a major emergency situation.

A styled bookcase is a great finishing touch in a space. We are often asked to style bookcase for clients, and it is one of our favorite ways to accessorize! Here are just a few tips to help you get started. Work from large to small–place your largest items first, and work your way down, using your smallest items as fillers. Group similar items together for a more cohesive look. Embrace your negative space; don't feel the need to fill in every single inch of the bookcase, and remember to let some items stand on their own. And don't forget to let your personality shine through! Whether you are keeping it simple with propped-up artwork, or your shelf is all about books, books, books, you can definitely set it up with style. Check out these great photos for inspiration!

Sketch by Paul Wang
For this month's sketch walk, we will be drawing Bukit Pasoh.
To get there, take an MRT to Outram Park MRT station. Come out aboveground using exit H. That will be the start point (circled in red). We will gather there for a quick briefing at 9AM and then you can explore Bukit Pasoh and the surrounding areas, free and easy.
If you venture behind the shophouses, you might find Duxton Plain Park to be quite pleasant. If you go up Bukit Pasoh and diagonally cross the road junction, you will find the Everton area which has nice coffee joints. Then, there is also Keong Saik Road with its eateries, cafes, and interesting back alleyways. It might get hot by 10am so bring a cap or find shade under the shophouses there.
At 12pm, the end point will be Duxton Plain Park, under some shade. Look for the group there.
See you there and have fun!

Veteran's Day
2013 is one of those rare years where the Veteran's Day holiday actually falls on 11/11. The Navy sent quite a contingent to NYC to celebrate Veteran's Week. Thanks to all veterans and those who love us for all that you've done.
How do you celebrate Veteran's Day?
(If you'd like a more substantive discussion, we can discuss this article which wrongly calls for the U.S. Navy to invest in non-nuclear submarines because Europeans are better than Americans or some such hogwash.)

You are here:
The Government's options paper provides broad and comprehensive coverage of the key higher education policy challenges associated with maintaining an accessible, high quality mass higher education system, against a backdrop of budget restraint.
The process presents an opportunity for the Australian Government, the university sector and all stakeholders to consider afresh the policy settings needed to support a fit-for-purpose higher education system to underpin long-term national prosperity...
Universities Australia opposes
1 Any further reduction to the aggregate level of per student funding under the Commonwealth Grant Scheme.
Universities Australia supports:
2 Careful design of any policies intended to improve retention, completion and employment outcomes, so that unintended consequences and perverse incentives are avoided.
3 The appointment of an Expert Advisory Panel to provide advice on the content and implementation of the overall package and to oversee the review of the cost of delivery.
4 The proposed review into the relative cost of delivery of higher education.
5 Reasonable design amendments to assure the viability and sustainability of HELP provided they are consistent with the policy objectives of the program and do not undermine the integrity of the scheme.
6 Making available the retained funds in the Education Infrastructure Fund (EIF) to all universities for university teaching and research infrastructure projects, subject to transparent criteria and processes.
7 An infrastructure fund or loan facility, potentially drawn from the retained EIF funds, to be established to enable smaller regional and outer metropolitan universities to invest in transformative infrastructure projects.
8 Establishing a timetable, over a five year period, to increase the resources available to fund the indirect costs of research.
9 The restoration of Higher Education Participation Program (HEPP) funding and the evaluation of HEPP to improve its effectiveness in addressing barriers to access to higher education by disadvantaged groups.
10 Expanding the demand driven system to university associate degree, advanced diplomas and diploma programs subject to budget affordability.
11 Convening a roundtable of key stakeholders and experts to assess all reasonable options advanced by both Governments and the sector on subsidised postgraduate places, according to principles of fairness, equitable access, transparency, public interest and efficiency.
12 Strengthening the QILT website through the inclusion of additional information that would genuinely assist in more informed decision-making.

motivating line of the section: Try, try and try again!
If your workshops are built, then we can go on to making the essentials of a dwarf fortress.
Building items from a workshop works the same in every type of workshop. First, hit "q" to enter the building tasks/preferences mode. Move the cursor over to one of the carpenter's workshops.
Now, hit, "a" for add new task. This brings you to a list of items which that workshop can construct. We want some beds, because tired dwarfs are unproductive dwarfs, so either scroll down to "construct bed" using "alt+down" or press "b" for bed. This will set the order to construct one bed. But we have seven dwarfs, and soon we will have lots more, so order a few more beds to be built.
6.1 – Bedrooms
While we wait for those to be built, let's build the area where we will put our beds. Some people may put lots of beds in a room, while others will build separate rooms for each bed. We will be doing the latter, because we want our dwarfs to feel special.
Remember that dwarfs don't want to sleep anywhere near the workshops because of all the noise, so we're going to build a longer hallway and branch the living area off of that.
Go ahead and dig this out. I'll explain the design next.
The good thing about this design is that it is capable of ever-expanding. You can build on to it left-wards and build parallel living halls. But again, when you start doing this yourself, the sky's the limit. There is no right or wrong when it comes to dwarf fortress. The only thing that is absolute in this game is that eventually your fortress will crumble.
Ok, when the miners dig that out, we're going to place the beds. We may have some beds built, but for now, they're just sitting there. We need to build them on the spot where we want them to be placed. Press "b" for bulid, and then select "bed". Move the cursor the the spot you want it to be placed, in this case, the bottom-left corner of each room. Keep placing beds until you don't have any more beds to place (if you can't place beds, you'll have to wait for the carpenter to build one first).
While you do the next section, set some doors, beds, tables and chairs to be built. Right now, we don't have any rock we can build with, so you can only use the carpenter's workshop. We'll get some rock soon, and lots of it.
Before we go on to stockpiles, we're going to build one of the more important rooms of the fortress.
6.2 – Dining Hall
The dining hall serves as both a place to eat, and a meeting area for dwarfs who have nothing to do. Right now, our dwarfs are meeting outside at our caravan, which is ok, but it is open to attack, and it just doesn't make sense. We want to create a dining hall.
Let's start by digging out the room. Dig out the following.
Notice how I left a tile "un-dug" to provide support so as to prevent a cave-in (which happens). Do this by cancelling one tile's dig designation by going to the designation menu and pressing "x" to cancel a designation. This will leave one support. **EDIT – newer version of DF don't have cave-ins (maybe old ones didn't either, and I just assumed they did), so supports are unnecessary. So build away without any supports!
Now, when you have at least one table built, build a table somewhere in the dining room. You can place chairs next to the tables too so the dwarfs can sit while they eat. Finally, we should build a door at the entrance to show that this is a room. When you're done the room may look something like this.
Now we have to set it as a dining room, as it isn't done automatically. Hit up "q" and move the cursor to one of the tables. Press "r" for "make dining room". This will bring up flashing x's to represent the area that will be considered the dining room. We want this to be the entire room, so adjust the size of the area with "alt+down". Our door will stop the dining room area from flowing out into the hallway. Press enter, and finally press "h" to make this our meeting hall, meaning all dwarfs who are idle or on break will meet here (also some meetings later on will occur here).
Our idlers aren't moving here yet because we still have that stupid caravan. We have to remove it. Press "q", move the cursor over the caravan (it is the 3×3 thing right outside) and press "x" to remove.
A carpenter will then remove it and dwarfs will start heading into our dining hall.
For me, at least, some plump helmets are starting to sprout, but we have no where to put them! Let's deal with stockpiles.
