Gaertner´s Blog appreciates
your contribution to this topic which is a mistery to us as well because one of the strengths of this new world of Web 2.0 is the chance to communicate two-way and build highly formatted and interesting newtworks. Commenting on other Blogs is certainly one way to pursue this goal successfully.
Patricia´s BLOGPOST:
I had an interesting exchange last night. While on Twitter I ran into one of the members of Collaborative Women Connect and she, as we all do, cleverly mentioned a post on her site with a link. Cheerfully, I responded, "I will see your tweet and raise you with a comment," and then invited her to leave a comment for me. It was a short, simple exchange, pleasant and fun and that was it.
But it leads me to ask, why is it we are so hesitant to post comments to blogs and sites even as we're looking for comments for our own? I admit it's rare that I comment on blogs. Even before I had a site of my own I would gladly post comments to others' but only if it was something that really, really, really stimulated me to do so whether or not I knew the owner. And never would I merely post, "Great article!" I almost feel like that's an insult to the poster.
Not that everyone needs to be verbose but I'd rather have no comments than a bunch of comments that don't clearly indicate the reader actually read what I took the time to write. I also believe other readers like myself may suspect those lazy comments are left by friends and family. Still, others may feel any comment's better than none.
What perplexes me even further is that many will take the time to send a personal message expressing kudos rather than posting the same kudos right on the site. Of course, that's appreciated, too, but I often end up taking the time to respond to those individuals asking them to say what they said to me on the site.
I'm thinking there must be some psychology behind this because, again, even though we all want comments for our own sites, it's unlikely we'll leave any for others. Is it that we're just too busy promoting ourselves that we won't promote others? Or is that our attention spans are diminishing? We're probably quicker to click a button to vote than read an article and then write something, too.
Now here's something I find even more interesting. Do you remember my old blog on BlogSpot? Probably not; I quickly outgrew it and moved to my own domain. Still, I have 57 comments on one particular post. But I worked my butt off to get them. I'd posted it on LinkedIn initially and got tons of responses throughout the groups I'd posted it in. So, I asked those members if they'd simply cut and paste the comments they'd already generously left. Now out of the hundreds (plural!) of comments left on LinkedIn, all the members individually contacted, I reaped 57 comments.
I appealed to those I asked to leave comments by suggesting it serves us both well. Those who leave comments get to leave links to their sites so it stands to reason they just might get some traffic themselves. It was an interesting exercise and I definitely don't regret it, but I certainly don't have the time nor the patience to do that for every single post, although a mere 50 comments for each post would look darned good. Although I do plan to contact each one of those members again individually to invite them over to the new site, that's a job in itself, but I digress.
Those of you who have blogs, let's talk about comments, even your reasons for leaving or not leaving comments for others. Clearly this is a code many are trying to break and with all the time we spend marketing our blogs and websites, this seems to be the missing link.
I've considered turning off the comments altogether as the traffic is consistent just few comments.
We've all heard the phrase, "No one wants to eat in an empty restaurant." Sometimes all it takes is a few comments from others to stimulate more to follow suit.
Is this just a side-effect of our desire for instant gratification? Are we more likely to use or even pay for an automated service that promises to increase traffic (hoping it will lead to comments) than we are to actually leave a simple comment for someone else and just ask that they do the same? Could it be we think networking is more about empire-building than just joining in the conversation?
*Don't treat this discussion like a blog ~ please comment.* Wink!

What is it?
A keloid is a patch of excessive scar tissue that may form following a skin injury. Occasionally scars enlarge spontaneously to form firm, smooth, hard growths called keloids. Keloids may be uncomfortable or itchy, and may be much larger than the original wound. It is not known why keloids appear. While most people never form keloids, others develop them after minor injuries, even insect bites or pimples. Keloids generally form after a skin injury heals. For unknown reasons, some people produce an excess of dense, fibrous tissue at and around the site of injury.
What are the causes?
The exact cause of keloids is unknown. They do run in families, however, and are associated with certain abnormal genes. Other risk factors for keloids include the following: Age between 10 and 30 Type A bloodKeloids are associated with skin healing after injury. Some events associated with keloid formation include the following: Accidental injuries, such as gunshot wounds Piercing of body parts, such as the earlobes and abdomen Surgery
What are the symptoms?
Keloids are thick, smooth areas of pink scar tissue. The scar tissue is raised above the level of the surrounding skin. Some keloids are itchy or tender. Keloids may form on any part of the body, although the upper chest and shoulders are especially prone. Dark skinned people form keloids more often than whites. Once keloids form they stay permanently at the same site.
What are the risk factors?
Keloids may be cosmetically embarrassing. However, they cause no long-term health problems. Keloids are not contagious and pose no risk to others.
How is the diagnosis made?
Keloids are diagnosed by their appearance.
What is the treatment?
The treatment modalities available are: Corticosteroid injection, repeated every few weeks Cryotherapy which involves freezing the keloid with liquid nitrogen Pressure dressings Silicone gel dressings Self-adhesive polyurethane scar reduction patches Pulsed dye laser. This is a costly procedure Surgical excision (but may result in a second keloid even larger than the original one) Laser surgery to cut the keloid Radiotherapy to remove the keloid
What are the prevention?
Persons who tend to develop keloids should avoid cosmetic procedures to their skin. If surgery is necessary, an injection of cortisone can be made into the skin first. This may lower the risk of developing a keloid.

Islamabad - Three major political players, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-led ruling coalition, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz-led opposition alliance and Pakistan People's Party submitted nomination papers of their respective candidates for election to the office of the president to be held on September 4.
The PTI-led coalition has nominated Dr Arif Alvi as its candidate for the presidential election while the PML-N-led opposition parties have fielded Maulana Fazlur Rehman for the slot. The PPP has nominated Aitzaz Ahsan as its candidate for the presidential election.
Nomination papers of the three candidates were submitted at Islamabad High Court (IHC). Nomination papers of Arif Alvi were also submitted with the presiding officers in the four provinces.
Talking to media persons, Dr Arif Alvi said that his party would win the presidential elections with clear majority. He said that Prime Minister Imran Khan and the PTI had picked him for the august office of the president which, he said, was a big responsibility. He said that he would continue to work for strengthening the federation.
Alvi said that the country had been put on the path of transformation. He said that the people would continue to support Imran Khan who would definitely bring change in their lives, he claimed.
The PPP's nominee for presidential election, Aitzaz Ahsan, after submitting his nomination papers said that his nomination for the slot was the party's decision. He said that other opposition parties also had no objection to his personality and only raised objections on the procedure adopted for his nomination.
Ahsan said that he was not expecting the objections raised by PML-N senior leader Pervez Rashid against him. The PPP's presidential nominee admitted that two presidential candidates from the ranks of the opposition would benefit the PTI.
Recalling his as well as his party's struggle for democracy, Ahsan stated that his party had given immense sacrifices for the sake of democracy. He said that he had been in politics since 1964 and during this period, he always waged a struggle against dictatorship.
On the other hand, PML-N leaders Raja Zafarul Haq and Ahsan Iqbal and JUI-F leader Abdul Ghafoor Haideri regretted that the PPP nominated Aitzaz Ahsan for the slot of the president without taking other opposition parties on board.
Talking to media persons after submitting nomination papers of Maulana Fazlur Rehman, they said that they would again approach the PPP and appeal it to support Maulana Fazl as division of the opposition's votes would give a walkover to the PTI in the presidential elections. They were of the view that a joint opposition candidate could win the presidential elections provided the PPP had also join hands with the opposition's alliance.
As per the schedule, Chief Election Commissioner will conduct scrutiny of the nomination papers in Islamabad on Wednesday in the morning. Candidates for presidential election can file their nomination papers by 12 noon on August 27.
According to the election schedule issued by Election Commission of Pakistan, prospective candidates should also file an extract of electoral rolls duly signed by the district election commissioner by the end of the deadline.
The chief justices of all high courts are serving as presiding officers for the election of the president. The National Assembly hall will serve as the polling station for MNAs and Senators while members of the provincial assemblies would cast their votes in their respective assemblies whose special sessions would be summoned by their speakers.
Scrutiny of nomination papers will be conducted by the Chief Election Commissioner on August 29.
According to Rule 3 of Presidential Election Rules of 1988, all nomination papers should be accompanied by attested copies of identity cards of proposers and the seconders issued by Senate, National Assembly or, as the case may be, provincial assembly secretariats.
The ECP asked the proposers and seconders of the candidates to bring their original identity cards at the time of scrutiny.
Only members of Parliament and provincial assemblies could act as proposers and seconders for the candidates for the office of the president, who should not be less than 45 years of age and should fulfil qualifications as laid down in Articles 62 and 63 of the Constitution.
Candidates could withdraw their nomination papers by August 30 before the list of final contestants is sent for printing of ballot papers.
Polling for the election will be held on September 4 in which members of Senate, National Assembly and the four provincial assemblies will cast their votes.
Opposition disunity puts PTI
ahead in presidential race

How best to exchange info?
A follow-up to yesterday's Dreamation discussion. I just posted this to the Forge thread discussing the new Dreamation policies:
Just this morning, I was thinking what games I might possibly run at the con. I thought "I like running Ganakagok, but I'm not sure I'd want to run it twice. Maybe Bill White's in the same boat and we could split a slot." This is all well and good for me, who knows Bill and can simply e-mail him. But not everyone has those same connections, or knows what others' interests are. There ought to be somewhere that I could make this information known and seek out other GMs who could supplement my games, and vice versa.
Could we just add a page to the wiki to do this? Is there a better way?
So, folks out there who know technology better than I do, what are your thoughts on that last issue. What's the best way to do this?

At Irish cons, there's a specific committee member in charge of orgaising LARP and RPG events. Now, many cons also ask that GMs arrange for a couple of GMs who'll run extra slots of a game, but the standard is that the RPG & LARP co-ordinator is sent the scenario a couple of months before the con and distributes copies to a corps of volunteer GMs who will run the extra tables.
Wow, that's nifty. "a corps of volunteer GMs" How might I obtain one of those? 😉
Thinking about it more, there's a GM-side problem and a player-side problem that we're trying to solve at the same time.
Player-side problem: The micro-celebrity status of certain GMs and designers mean that the sessions they run are overbooked immediately and the players would be less pleased being sent to an alternate GM running the same game/scenario.
GM-side problem: Many of our designers and GMs view running the game/scenario as their personal means of creative expression, I think (I know I do). They're less willing to run someone else's scenario because of that
It's a puzzle. But I certainly appreciate learning how things work elsewhere. Thanks!
It does create a lot of work on the part of the writer to ensure that, even if someone has only 10 minutes to read their scenario, they're able to do it justice, but even here you do get people seeking out specific writers and GMs.
Whenever I'm playing a game at a con (all too rare, these days) I try my best to get onto the writer's table.

Expected utility maximization theory can help explain why many eligible individuals do not take up seemingly free public benefits for which they qualify. Two major literature reviews analyze the impact of multiple factors on participation levels in many different programs. These factors include transaction costs (e.g., both time and dollars spent to meet administrative requirements), lack of information on program eligibility or benefits, and "stigma" associated with government programs.15 Both reviews conclude that administrative barriers and consumer confusion or lack of information matter the most and that larger program benefits have a positive effect on participation. By contrast, stigma—defined as the psychological feeling of shame, a social sense of disrespect associated with program participation, or the perception that participation in a welfare-related program is per se undesirable16—is challenging to empirically define and does not appear to have significant effect, at least as shown in these literature reviews. In sum, tangible costs (which can be temporal or explicitly monetary) and confusion or ignorance reduce take-up, and higher benefits increase participation.
Turning to more specific research about SNAP participation, several factors can inhibit take-up. One such factor is confusion: half of eligible nonparticipants (most of whom have somewhat higher incomes than typical participants) mistakenly think they do not qualify.17 Participation is also more likely among those who qualify for higher benefit amounts, with the median benefit level of eligible nonparticipants well below that of participating households18 Researchers also find that individuals who report more serious nutritional hardship and thus who have larger perceived benefits are more likely to participate, as food insecurity is more frequently reported by SNAP recipients than by eligible non-recipients.19 Transaction costs are another factor that can impede participation, particularly for people who qualify for small benefit amounts; in such cases, SNAP's costs could reasonably be seen as exceeding its benefits. Although slightly dated because of program streamlining, a 1999 study found that, when the minimum SNAP benefit was $10 a month, average out-of-pocket costs (mostly due to transportation) were $10.31 per application, $5.84 for each of several recertifications per year, plus an average of nearly five hours of consumer time per initial application and 2.5 hours per recertification.20 Today, the minimum monthly benefit is $15.21
Those same three factors highlighted as significant by neoclassical economics—confusion about eligibility, differential benefits, and transaction costs—also affect Medicaid and CHIP. One multivariate study found that among a randomly selected sample of community health center patients, those who perceived the Medicaid application as long and complicated or were confused about who can apply were 1.8 times more likely to be eligible for but not enrolled in Medicaid compared to those who did not perceive these barriers.22 Learning over time might also occur as Medicaid participation levels are affected more by past than current eligibility rules.23 In terms of the second factor, degree of gain, those with larger expected benefits are also more likely to participate in Medicaid. For example, elderly people with chronic functional limitations are four times more likely to enroll, compared to those without such limitations.24 Finally, much work can be required to enroll, imposing costs in the form of time. In the early 1990s, requirements for producing documentation (e.g., birth certificate, citizenship papers, proof of residency, and proof of income) and attending multiple interviews were sufficiently burdensome that up to a quarter of Medicaid applicants could not meet those requirements before applicable deadlines and so could not obtain an eligibility determination.25 Following many states' considerable streamlining of application procedures since then, regression analyses have shown that measures of inconvenience, such as perceived application length, hinder take-up, while policies such as presumptive eligibility, which lower applicant inconvenience, have a significant positive impact on take-up.26

Be Set Free, from the His Story album, featuring the Mustard Seed Soul Band, recorded and produced by Ross Gill
Just back from a fantastic short break to Porto with my lovely wife Caroline. What a beautiful city with such lovely people- We can highly recommend it.
Before leaving I read this story in "The Word for Today" and thought it would be good to share.
So these are the words of Sid O'Neil.
When I was 12 years old I went to live with my Grandmother. The house that we lived in had a lot of spiritual activity and as a child I used to hear and see spirits. That was my only experience of anything "spiritual." Years later I was working in a print factory and one of the bosses, Neil was a Christian. I think I made his life a misery, as I used to tease him and try to embarrass him- I thought it was really amusing. I wondered why he always read his Bible, rather than the newspaper like the rest of us.
Although I knew there was a spiritual world (because of my childhood experiences) the only thing I did religiously was to go to the pub on a Friday night. One night a group of us were heading off for some drinks when we were involved in a horrible car accident- one of my friends in the car was killed. I was seriously injured and spent a long time in hospital with broken legs and broken back. I had a lot of time to think and blamed God for what He had done to me and my friends. When I got better I took off to a job in the Middle East. I made a real mess of things there, started drinking and ended up breaking my contract in order to get back to the UK. When I returned, Neil the supervisor from my old factory was now running his own busy printing firm and he was printing this little booklet called "Word For Today."
He offered my wife a job and one day when I went to pick her up the printing press was broken. Neil was distraught and at the point of tears as he could not find anyone to fix it and the "Word For Today" needed to be urgently printed. I don't know how but I looked at the machine and was able to fix it…. and the printing continued. Even though I was not a believer I believe that God helped me to fix that machine.
Somehow I knew that I needed to be there working for Neil. It meant a 50% pay cut but I was drawn back there and I used to read " Word For Today" as it came off the presses. One day Neil gave me a CD with a man singing a song from Psalm 23 and as I sat there alone in the factory I raised my hands and I was crying. I knew that God was speaking to me and I knew that if I asked for forgiveness God would set me free and He would heal me of all my pain.
That was the day I stopped running from God and since then I have not looked back. Today I am working with the Christian Motorcyclists Association. I can't say how thankful I am to God for all that He's done in my life. He fixed my hurt and pain. He stopped me from running and He's given me hope. In my life God has worked through so many different means- through Neil, through the bikers, through the UCB "Word For Today" and through everyone who prayed for me.
What a great story – I will tell you more of "Word For Today" next week.

Research Focus
Applied, problem-oriented: the "Land-Water-Energy Nexus"
The work of the department can be characterized with the keyword "Land-Water-Energy Nexus". In case studies on land grabbing and the water grabbing that often follows, we analyze topics which are highly relevant for international agricultural and food policy. From a climate policy viewpoint, land, water and energy management are highly linked. Thus, the support of energy crops leads to an increase in land scarcity for food production or the production of energy from hydropower often competes with irrigated agricultural production for scarce water resources.
Proceeding from current societal questions, we are interested in the impact of non-agricultural investments in the German agricultural sector, the design of the agricultural land market and newly evolving property rights structures, particularly in East Germany. Likewise we work on strategies for sustainable land use with less soil erosion and better CO2 sequestration in the step zones of Russia.
Methodologically sophisticated, policy-relevant: Development of the PICA method
The department deepens policy analysis and policy evaluation from an institutional economic perspective by use of a decision support method, which assesses, ex-ante and systematically, the compatibility of agricultural and environmental policies with the institutional environment. This Procedure for Institutional Compatibility Assessment (PICA) can be combined with well-established agri-economic models. The method is applied to current questions of agricultural and rural policies.
The success of decentralization policy measures, for instance, will depend in large part on the extent to which local actors participate in decentralization processes. We currently analyze determinants of successful participatory processes for policies as different as the European Water Framework Directive and agricultural decision-making processes in Thailand.
Another aspect of this research focuses on potential policy for bringing out positive leadership qualities to facilitate collective action. In addition, our work involves building a theoretical concept of power that can be operationalized, allowing analysis of the influence of power and leadership on ecological and socially sustainable resource management. This is important for a wide variety of issues, from questions of agricultural irrigation in Central Asia to direct foreign investments in the agricultural sector of Ethiopia.
Theoretical, interdisciplinary: social-ecological research
The department is a member of the research group, initiated and originally led by the Nobel Prize laureate in economics, Elinor Ostrom, which is working on a diagnostic framework to analyze socio-ecological systems and the integration of socio-technical systems into that framework. This system approach will foster interdisciplinary collaboration across traditional boundaries in agricultural sciences. For that, we are using a comparative approach of social-ecological case studies, working with a data base that is actively developed.
Another theoretical question involves how institutions influence the formation and implementation of societal moral concepts regarding the desirable treatment of animals, nature and food. We elicit the normative assumptions built into particular institutional arrangements, which influence the process of shaping public opinion. By highlighting these assumptions, we contribute to the discussion on their suitability.
An recent interdisciplinary approach taken up by the department follows the question whether theoretical explanations from the traditional commons research (e.g. irrigation, pastures, fishing grounds) can be adapted to explain coordination mechanisms in the global commons (e.g. deep sea, biodiversity) and in the newly constructed commons (e.g. city gardens, apartment buildings, parks, recreational spaces, internet, opensource software and car-sharing).

Patriots rookie Malcom Mitchell awaits Monday night stage
Recommended Video:
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. >> Things just keep getting better for rookie Malcolm Mitchell.
The rookie receiver the past two games has suddenly become an important part of the New England offense. Now comes a big Monday night stage.
"I know (there's) a lot of excitement around it," Mitchell said Thursday as the Patriots prepared for their home game against the Baltimore Ravens in a matchup of AFC division leaders. "It's the only game on Monday night so I'm looking forward to it."
Tom Brady clearly has developed trust with the young player, who set Georgia's receptions record in college with 174. Mitchell was drafted by the Patriots in the fourth round.
After accumulating just seven catches in the first nine games, Mitchell has 13 catches and three touchdowns in the past two weeks. His progression is now even more important with tight end Rob Gronkowski gone for the rest of the season with a back injury, Danny Amendola gone for the regular season with a high ankle sprain, and Martellus Bennett banged up, causing him to be used mostly as a blocker last week.
"I feel blessed to have an opportunity to be part of this organization, from the time they drafted me to now," he said.
Asked if he feels added pressure in light of the injuries to teammates, Mitchell said: "I just do what they tell me. That's how I like to keep it, keep it that simple."
He says being around veterans has been a big help.
"It just takes time to get used to any organization that you're new in," he said. "I'm still learning."
NOTES: Griff Whalen, the receiver/returner signed as a free agent with Amendola hurt, reported for his first workout. "We haven't seen much of anything from him. We'll see how it goes," said coach Bill Belichick. "We'll see how he works into our receiver situation." Whelan, released by San Diego Nov. 22, caught two passes for 22 yards and returned four kicks for 56 in eight games for the Chargers this season.

I have resolved my problem.
I added a Telerik RadSplitButton to a UserControl. When I added the UserControl to another UserControl, or a Window, it compiled but did not run. It turns out that dragging a Telerik control on my UserControl automatically added Visual Studio Project References that are helpful but hid the details from me. Once I determined the Telerik automatic Project Reference updates I documented them and can provide instructions for adding the necessary Project References when making use of our new UserControl.
Here's my list of automatically added Project References for the RadSplitButton:

I hope this helps someone.

By Cat Brooks
It is no longer questioned that the war on drugs has disproportionately impacted Black, Brown and poor people. What is less understood or discussed are the potential impacts that the legalized cannabis industry will have on these communities.
As it stands, the bulk of the licenses held for Oakland businesses are owned by non-Black people, though the arrests, incarceration and destruction of community has rested largely on Black bodies.
What happens to the communities that are still reeling from generations of individuals who have been locked away for the possession or sale of cannabis? What happens to individuals left to languish in prisons and jails for petty drug crimes?
And what about the street corner tradespeople who have engaged in a largely safe industry when they are pushed out of business due to the gentrification of Oakland's cannabis game?
Will they be forced into means of earning a living in another underground economy or more violent ways? With the closing of job centers, the city not applying for youth summer employment dollars and double-digit unemployment for Black residents, it is imperative that Oakland's elected officials do the right thing for cannabis equity.
Our local leaders have a moral obligation to ensure that those most impacted, including those currently and formerly incarcerated, their families, and their communities, experience relief from the racist criminalization of marijuana.
"An injury to one is an injury to all," and the indelible stain that this 40-year drug war has left on so many of our neighbors can now begin to be healed. Join me and a growing segment of Oakland residents in creating a more equitable city for all.
We will have a deeper discussion about the war on drugs and mass incarceration on Friday, Feb. 10 at Oakland City Hall at 5:30 p.m. after screening the documentary film The House I Lived In.
All perspectives are welcomed in this conversation and the event is free and open to community.
Cat Brooks is the Co-Founder of the Anti Police-Terror Project.

Sunday drive: Mount Tamalpais
Recommended Video:
What you'll see: Ridgecrest Boulevard is a pretty drive up the west flank of Mount Tamalpais that often provides sensational long-distance views of the Marin coast, especially in winter. Along the way, you'll see dirt pull-outs where you can park and then follow unsigned paths that lead to the nearby hilltops to the west, short walks that usually take only 5 to 10 minutes. From these hilltops, you can see Bolinas Bay, Stinson Beach and Bolinas Lagoon, all directly below, and gaze beyond across the ocean to the Farallon Islands. Sunset views from Ridgecrest can rival those from anywhere in the Bay Area.
Ridgecrest, a pretty two-lane road located on Bolinas Ridge in the western foothills of Mount Tamalpais, links the Panoramic Highway to Bolinas-Fairfax Road. It is sometimes overlooked because most drivers stay on Panoramic to Highway 1 at Stinson Beach.
Loop option: If you continue north on Ridgecrest, it becomes Bolinas-Fairfax Road. It drops into redwoods and then crosses Alpine Lake Dam en route to Fairfax and Sir Francis Drake Boulevard.
How to get there: From San Francisco, take U.S. 101 to Marin and the exit for Highway 1/Stinson Beach. Take that exit and drive west to the stoplight at a T intersection for Highway 1. Turn left on Highway 1 and drive 4 miles to the Panoramic Highway. Bear right on Panoramic and drive 5.5 miles to Pantoll Road. Turn right on Pantoll and drive 1.5 miles to the T Intersection (across from Rock Spring parking and trailhead) with Ridgecrest Boulevard. Turn left on Ridgecrest. In the next 2 miles or so, you will see pull-outs along the shoulder, with short trails available to hilltop lookouts.
Map/brochure: Best map available is "Mt. Tam Trail Map," $8.95, Tom Harrison Maps, (800) 265-9090 or tomharrisonmaps.com.

This is a great article in World Magazine about films and discernment. I wish more Christians practiced this kind of discernment when they watch movies.
[Dr.] Zhivago was a breakthrough movie. Made in 1965, the same year as The Sound of Music, it was the first film to make adultery beautiful.
I wrote a little post for the blogs confessing that Zhivago had done me more harm than any other film—and all without showing skin. One commenter wrote: "Funny thing about that movie. . . . My parents went to see it at the drive-in theater when it was first released. There, in the car, they decided to divorce."
As a woman now not only surpassing Lara (Komarovsky's betrayed lover) in age but even her mother and looking for holiness, I took pad and paper and started jotting all the elements of David Lean's direction that led to my seduction:
Do not develop the character of Tonya (the wife); make her twodimensional and vaguely boring. Bring up the Zhivagos' little boy only enough to establish that Zhivago is a good father. This is tricky. Be careful not to overdo these snapshots. You would awaken common sense in the audience. It would dawn on them that Zhivago is no different after all from the deadbeat dads they disdain in the inner city. Then the jig is up.
The last thing you want to do is shift the point of view of the movie from Zhivago and Lara's relationship to the Zhivago family back in Moscow. The viewer must not be allowed to meditate for even a second on what it is like for the boy. No lingering shots of crying himself to sleep, first during the war separation, and later during his father's repeated absences as he goes to Yuriatin to see his illicit lover.
The goal is that the audience should fall in love with the doctor and the mistress, and not only forgive but root for their love affair. This is very difficult to pull off because of natural revulsion against adultery. Do not allow enough exposure of Tonya to create a heart-tie between her and the audience. We need 10 scenes of Lara for every one of Tonya.
Keep the action moving. Allow no time for viewer reflection. Above all, the forces that brought Zhivago and Lara together must be seen as inevitable. Encourage a particular anthropology—that the human heart is passive and not active, that its noblest intentions can be overthrown by a historical juggernaut against which it is hopeless to resist. Show Zhivago and Lara as good people doing their best (they volunteered in the army), struggling valiantly before succumbing to their inescapable fate.
By the time David Lean was done with me, God was a scowling moralist, a pinprick of light in a faraway galaxy. And you would think that all the best things on earth—fields of daffodils, snow-sculpted minarets, and Songs of Songs—were the gifts given under the sun.

Very dry and sensitive skin
Eucerin Original Extra Thick Crème
- (3)
Very dry and sensitive skin
The skin is one of our most important organs, as it is our protective covering, and our visage to the world. However, while doing this vital role, exposure to sunshine, hot, cold or windy weather, frequent washing, natural ageing, and even ineffective skin care products can all cause skin to lose its moisture, leading to dry skin symptoms such as tight, rough, scaly and wrinkled skin.
Eucerin Original Creme for dry skin is dermatologically proven.

Since September last year, a new mode of transportation has taken flight in Los Angeles. Based right out of Santa Monica, Bird Rides, Inc. provides electric scooters for communal use throughout Los Angeles, which users can access through Bird's app. For $1, and then $0.15 per mile, individuals can use the app to locate and unlock an electric scooter, and then park it (wherever they like) when they're done, leaving it for the next Bird user to find. Bird collects the scooters at night or whenever they need a re-charge, and then delivers them back the next morning.
Ideally, Bird was meant to be a quick and easy alternative to traveling short distances (up to 15 miles), reducing dependence on a car or other ride. The environmentally-friendly solution is a welcome resolve in the face of street and car congestion.
For many, it's an exciting new way to get around. People have been mostly compliant; rules stipulate that users must be over 18, possess a valid driver's license, wear a helmet, and stay off the sidewalk. Users are also required to have a valid credit card to be charged accordingly. It helps people swing a quick errand or serve as a faster way to connect between public transportation stops or to their final destination.
Individuals like it, but Santa Monica city officials have been frustrated with the new string of problems these Bird scooters have created. Santa Monica city mayor, Ted Winterer says he wasn't informed of these plans until the scooters were already out on the streets. The notice he received was via a LinkedIn message from Bird CEO Travis VanderZanden about this new opportunity, but it was received after Bird had deployed their first fleet into city streets.
In response, Santa Monica city filed a criminal complaint of nine counts since Bird had not obtained a vendor permit, and claims Bird was refusing to work out the licensing issues. Bird argues that these vendor permits are only applicable to food vendors, not the dockless shared scooters. Since the initial complaints, the City of Santa Monica and Bird came to an agreement upon licensure, and the city dismissed the original complaints.
Safety Concerns
As with many things, there are at least two major downfalls: accidents and people not following the rules. The Santa Monica Police Department has made 281 traffic stops and issued 97 citations involving the Bird scooter, in a little over a month from the beginning of 2018.
Though Bird issues its rules for scooter use, it's ultimately up to the user whether they choose to follow them or not. Bird's VanderZanden says he's personally disabled accounts or scooters if he sees or is made aware of misuse. Still, Santa Monica PD has been having to hound or even cite people for not wearing their helmets or to get off the sidewalks. Just last month, a helmet-less rider was seriously injured when she blew through a stop and crashed into a car. Recently, Bird added a feature in which users can order a free helmet directly from the app and it will be delivered to them.
Additionally, while the beauty of the Bird scooters allows you to leave them wherever you want, that has also become a nuisance since people literally do leave them wherever they want. This includes doorways, driveways, and wheelchair ramps, for which Santa Monica has received numerous complaints about.
Underage users are another problem, with kids much younger-looking than 18 years are riding through Venice or Santa Monica, sans helmet and unsafely occupying the boardwalk. Bird says it will be implementing much stricter policy for creating accounts, in order to curb the under-age use.
The broader issue that cities like Santa Monica and the like are facing is trying to keep up their regulations with the innovations of the tech age, such as Uber, Airbnb, and now Bird. Bird insists it did reach out to the city prior to the launch, but Santa Monica has at least five city departments that could be necessary in regulating its business.
So far, Bird is active in Santa Monica, Venice, Marina del Rey, Culver City, and two weeks ago, they just deployed a fleet in San Diego. They intend to go national and even international in time. VanderZanden says San Diego is currently in a pilot program phase, and have not yet made commitments to stay or expand in the area.

Eight-animal stew lands Chinese cook in the soup
A woman who boasted about cooking an "eight-animal stew" that included meat from endangered species such as swans and pangolins has been arrested in China.
Pictures of the animals ready for the pot had been posted online by a user under the name Zhanfangdeduoduo. They were captioned: "Homemade broth with eight types of animal.

Brawl breaks out as Ukraine's lawmakers debate land reform
MINSK – Ukraine's parliament is debating a proposed law to allow sales of the country's rich farmland, a high-tension issue that sparked a brawl among lawmakers Thursday.
Proponents say that allowing sales of farmland that are currently outlawed would significantly boost Ukraine's struggling economy. Opponents argue the land could end up in the hands of businesses that would crush small farmers or of foreigners, including Russians.
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, who supports land sales, says the question of allowing foreign ownership should be put to a referendum.
Hundreds of protesters gathered outside the parliament building during the debate. Inside the chamber, supporters of opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko blocked the area at the front while she occupied the speaker's seat. The confrontation ended in a scuffle.
About 75% of Ukraine's farmland belongs to small landowners who can lease it but not sell it. The rest is owned by the state.
Debate of the measure is likely to be lengthy because lawmakers have proposed some 4000 amendments to it.

The Creative Manifesto is coming!
On the weekend of 11-12 May, Warsaw's Koneser will change into a place full of music, fashion and design, performed by the best Polish artists.
Jazz Art Fashion Festival is two days full of creative events that will release creative energy from you!
Joanna Hawrot, Paprocki&Brzozowski, La Metamorphose, Kora and Maanam hits in jazz arrangements, the best Polish design show…
Prepare yourself for a real revolution!
The fifth edition will be unique in many ways: JAFF, a festival with a long tradition, will be held in Warsaw for the first time and will turn the Centrum Praskie Koneser into a creative space for art, entertainment, emotions and artistic challenges.
The organizers have prepared many attractions for the participants. The concert of the evening, both on the first and second day of the Festival, is the premiere "Performance of LANGUAGE Songs: Kora i MAANAM" in the arrangement and under the musical direction of Krzysztof Mroziak, with the participation of great jazz musicians and vocalists: Monika Borzym, Kasia Lins, Ark Kłusowski and others. The author of the concert's musical setting is Bruno Althamer, the author of a mural with the Koras's portrait.
JAFF is a combination of music, fashion and art, interpenetration of structures and cooperation of artists, a great expression of which will be the premiere show of the "Psycho Pussy" collection – the fruit of artistic cooperation of designer Joanna Hawrot and Maurycy Gomulicki, graphic designer, photographer, installations' and short film forms' author.
On Sunday, 12 May, two fashion shows will take place at the festival participants. The first one is a presentation of the "Gardens of Women's Soul" collection by the La Metarmorphose Gawkowska & Szczęsna duo, whose collection debuted at this year's Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week. Three models from the last collection have been distinguished in the international Haute Couture magazine, which appears in Paris and Rome as: inspiration, artistic talent and defining new styles in Houte Couture. The collection "Gardens of the Soul…" is a story full of fantasy, subtlety and magic of French style.
The atmosphere of French finesse and lightness will be emphasized by the music played by the sensational Gośka Bańka on the Steinway&Sons piano. She is a pianist, vocalist and composer who has won many prestigious awards in the field of music arts.
The second fashion event certainly deserves to be called the event of the evening – a duo of designers will enter the stage: Marcin Paprocki and Mariusz Brzozowski to present their evening collection.
JAFF Art & Design is a part curated by dr hab. Dawid Korzekwa – the founder of the internet platform GUSTGUST.com which supports and promotes high quality products, cosmetics and clothes from the best Polish designers. For two days, nearly 150 pop-up stores will be waiting for JAFF's guests, who will present products of applied arts at their best.
In addition to fashion shows and concerts, JAFF 2019 participants will have the opportunity to listen to lectures by renowned panellists, artists and musicians during the JAFF Meetups during the conference and meeting part of the event.
The debates will be accompanied by workshops on journals with Natasha Pavluchenko on Wacom and Eizo equipment, workshops on yoga with a panel related to Herstoria, and workshops on creating games in 3D, which will take place in Warsaw's Google for Startups.
Everything that is great has a smaller beginning, that's why we give the young designers two days of control over the specially built Pavilion at JAFF Young Designers' Square and dedicate the contest to them. They are awarded and nominated for awards in prestigious Fashion Week competitions. It will select the best collection, which, having special artistic values, will become a part of the idea of combining fashion and culture present at the Jazz Art Fashion Festival. The winner will be selected by the Jury during the event. For two days of the festival, the Pavilion will host fashion shows and collections.
Additionally, guests of the festival will be able to take part in many educational and development workshops, such as braiding, screen printing, journals drawing, jewellery making and yoga.
The sponsors of the fifth edition of Jazz Art. Fashion Festival are: OPPO Mobile Polska and Audi Krotoski-Cichy Warszawa, ul. Radzymińska 267.

More floral embroidery…..this was a sampler/test stitch piece from the Autumn when I was having a little play around with some old embroidery motifs. The wool fabric is just an old piece of wool blanket, a left over from cutting out stockings and tea cosies…..
The threads used are just little pieces of tapestry wool left over from making the grannies paperweight blanket (I'm such a hoarder, I really hate throwing things out and try to find uses for every last scrap of fabric or tiny tail of wool)
Small lengths of wool are folded in half and half again, then gently knotted in the middle and made into tiny skeins, then put in a tin out of the way…they're often just the right amount to try out a few stitches (depending on the stitch pattern) and it saves me using longer lengths of the vintage wool I prefer to embroider with.
Most of this wool is tapestry wool but I also like to embroider with vintage crewel and Persian wool (that's the tapestry wool which is 3 strands loosely twiddled together…you can use it as 1, 2, or 3 ply, and it comes in cut lengths or skeins). Both are good for detail work such as adding highlights to a flower petal.
Along with preferring the vintage wools I also like to use vintage needles for much of my embroidery, this is just a selection of my needle collection……the needles from way back when just seem to be of a better quality and they keep their sharpness much better then modern day needles. (they also have the prettiest little packets)……I always check needles of this era before I buy them when I can (there's nothing worse than lovely needles all gone rusty…and if you try to sew with them the rust comes off on your fabric) however if they have just a tiny fleck of rust I find it generally will come off if you gently rub along the rusty bit with some ultra fine black glass paper. It removes the nice shine but they still sew beautifully.
Often the "sharps" or very fine needles from yesteryear are much skinnier than modern needles and make stitching over papers (when you are patch working in the English way) much easier. Being so fine they seem to skim over the paper and only catch the fabric.
When I'm embroidering over old blanket fabric with tapestry and crewel wools then my all time favourite needles to use are the crewel embroidery needles made by Kirby's of London…..they're quite short and much thinner than a regular tapestry needle….they're also nice and sharp and just slide through the fabric.
This is my most recent tester, I was inspired by all the snowdrops that I'm seeing shooting up everywhere, (along with snowdrops I'm seeing tiny purple shoots of crocuses and bright yellow celandine….it may still be proper chilly out but the first signs of Spring are certainly showing) ….I like making little samplers, trying out stitches, if the stitches are wonky or turn out odd then it's not a problem, I can try out different thickness's of wool to see which suits a particular stitch better……….
The tiny clusters of figure 8 knot (or French knots) are a shared joke between me and Bernard (he's been coming in with the muddiest little toes you can imagine, and it seems every time I into the kitchen to make a pot of tea then I'm greeted by a set of dirty cat prints across the floor. A bonus for me when I'm sitting here embroidering is having the boy come up to see me, supervise which wool I'm using, and then he'll either nest in amongst any on the floor…it all gets tipped out next to where I'm working…or he'll jump up on my lap and cuddle himself down, often with his chin resting on the edge of my work table.
Whenever I visit a textile collection I'm sure to make a beeline to see any samplers on display, the skill of the little girls who embroidered them always amazes me……I'd like to make my own but I'm really trying very hard to not start any new projects until I've caught up and finished any stray wip's. But I don't count these test pieces as something new, instead they help me unwind a bit between projects, and shake out any tangles in design compositions….. (I often find that what looks good on paper or in my head can look quite pants in reality, and then when I'm just playing about, doodling almost, a new idea can happen and it will look fine.)
more often than not this is how I make my French knots….not a true French knot but it's nice and plump and I don't think anyone can tell the difference

In today's article of looking into Singapore's social escort industry further, we investigate the most common reasons why Singaporean girls become escorts in Singapore. While every girl has her own reasons, these are found to be some of the most common and overlapping reasons that we have found from interviewing the escorts.
Singapore girls become escorts to pay off their massive school loans quickly
First of all, they need to pay their university or school loans off. This is much more common that you may think so. With so much pressure on children to work hard and study hard and excel academically in Singapore, even though academic excellence does not always translate to career success, Singaporean girls put a high significance on studies. This means going for further studies by any means possible. In fact, many of them view it as compulsory, rather than something additional.
Unfortunately, some girls will definitely come from poor families, simply due to statistics. Therefore, these girls do not have the financial support from their parents, unlike those from well-off backgrounds. Therefore, they turn to escort work to support themselves.
SG girls want to buy luxury items!
Second of all, you may not be very surprised to hear this, but the truth is a girl would rather be seen crying in a luxury sedan with a branded handbag than to be normal on a regular public transport with a bag bought from the local wet market. Everyone aspires to some form of materialistic dreams, some just happen to be more expensive than others! Some think a $3000 Chanel bag is nice, while others think a $300 Kate Spade is good enough. The latter girl may think the former is materialistic, but there may be far poorer girls thinking that the latter girl is super materialistic! Therefore, materialism is really just a matter of ambition and personal preference.
Everyone should strive for their own version of happiness, and material possessions definitely do matter. Some girls work hard as social escorts in Singapore to eventually save up and buy luxury items for themselves. Once again, a big reason is because these girls come from less than well-to-do family households.
Some girls need to help with their parents very expensive medical bills
Third of all, some girls work hard as escorts to pay off their elderly parent's medical bills. Even with Medisave and other financial schemes to help citizens, sometimes, some medical bills are gigantic. Unfortunately, some of the girls' parents are unable to work anymore due to their illness or old age. Therefore, the children are unfortunate enough to be landed with such bills. However, these girls are hardworking and willing to work hard as escorts in Singapore to pay off their parents' medical bills.

Re: Unsusng / but worthyJohn Cale.
Re: Unsusng / but worthyI came across this singer, virtually unknown here, around the time his album Cosmogram was released, on an internet radio station. I bought the album from a US supplier, I don't think it has been released in the UK. It is a good album, marred by a slight saminess but still worth an occasional listen. The first song on this set, off that album, has remained one of my all-time favourite songs.
