Cornelia Păun Heinzel: "Rich teenager, poor teenager"
translation: Andrei Albuş & Andrei Ştefan Vlădău
-Wait to see what happened in Greece, with the girls, in the religious educational program, said a teacher with verve. They were only daughters of rich men, with much money. But the boys from the class which I'm class with at boys from modest families, when I struggled so much for to obtain free of charge camps to the seaside, weren't too happy. They came back slim and angry. They didn't eat almost anything.
– But what could they give them to eat there, because your parents don't have money, they're a bit poor. They don't work , so they live from social help, said a girl astonished. In the last years, all the teenagers that went in our camps came back happy. They were satisfied with the program.
– The boys say that the meal was containing pork steak, rice, mashed potatoes , but they didn't like anything , the teachers say. Maybe the food was not well made but still, they didn't need to be picky.
Clementin and his class-mates arrived in the morning at the camp which was at the romanian seaside. The organizers carefully had prepared us breakfast: milk, cereals, Prague ham, Sibiu salami, cheese, bread and butter.
"What is this? I've never ate such things in my life. And I can't eat food which I'm not used to. At home, I eat fried potatoes and vegetable soups. And at school, I eat snacks like back rolls.
His class-mates listened to him with trust and confidence. They were in the same situation. And so, they did the exactly same thing as their leader, Clementin. None of them touched the food.
"Let's see what they're going to give us for lunch said the nervous, angry teenager.
"Now, we are going to go to the beach, you can come and swim in the sea," explain the Association's instructor, which had to the program with the kids in care.
In ten minutes, they all arrived at the great shore of the Black Sea. The hotel was very close to it.
– I won't A on the beach. Why , so well cam fry – frying in the sunlight ? What are we, hamburger or sausages? said Clementin angrily. And… This is the sea? That is dirty ! And full of sea weed and weird creatures ! There's an awful smell in the air! I won't enter that water at all ! Friends, it would be better to return to our hotel rooms and play on the computer or on the mobile phone.
And all the boys immediately left, angry to the hotel. They started walking towards the hotel.
– Don't forget to come and eat your lunch ! We shall be waiting for you in the restaurant of the hotel ! said the one responsible the manager for the group, with a gentile loud voice.
The teens entered Clementin's room and cheerfully chatted on the mobile, the favorite games. The hours passed so fast that they did not even realize it. Suddenly, one of them said in a gruff voice:
– Brothers ! Are we no longer eating ? It's like lunch time. One of them, said I am hungry. Especially since I did not eat anything in the morning.
"You're right," Clementin said. We're going to the table. Let's see what he's going to give us now! That I, one, I do not like what it is cooked serveed here.
The dinding room was arranged for the new guests, with white, clean-faced faces, and fragrant natural flowers in brightly colored glass pots.
– Come on, boys! I do not like the smell of these mimes! the boy said. I will throw them out of here! I hurt ! and he moves the flowers on the free tables, away from its table. His colleagues immedietaly carried out the same maneuvers. Clementine was their leader and was right in everything he did.
At lunch, the first dish was meatball soup. Steam was floating out of the bowls . But not for Clementin..
Making faces, the teenager, shaked his green croaking, through the liquid in the bowl and said angrily,
– What is this ? Rice bulls with meat and pork ! I never had this before, in my life! I can not eat this ! I wered't even put then thing im my mouth!
The second was tasty pork (steak) with rice and red cabbage salad.
– What is this rice? I don't like it ! What, are we Chinese? And haven't liked pork steak and I won't like this, said Clementin.
"Maybe you like the alvit," said the group leader, while the waiters coming with desert plates to the customers' tables.
Clementin caught the plate and examined it for a long time. Then while marking faces and putting his finger into the sweet contening , and balancing it a few times, he said
– I know exactly what it's good for ! he said with an ironic grin=smile, while throwing the alvind Marcel's face who was in front of him an the other side of the table. The teenager got angry at first, especially because the boys started to laugh loudly, and then he repeated the move on the boy standing on his right. In a few seconds, the group started all alvits throwing, just like in the TV show. After that, of course , got into the hotel rooms hungry , because they did not eat anything.
In the evening, by dinner time, Clementin said to his friends:
– We shall not even go to eat the rubbish they give us anymore while
I've discovered looking outside the window I saw a little shop. We get money from all the boys and we go get what we usually, like to eat snacks, chocolats, biscuits and bake rolls…
They howerver , get to walk only a bit outside of the hotel and the goard cought him and got him to the man responsible for the group which said with indignation.
You cannot get out of this building alone and you cannot eat anything else. I am responsable for you safety and for your health while you're here. If anything happenes to you , if you eat something that's alterated , I'm responsible.
Clementin came back dissatisfied, grumbling in the room, and playing the games started on the mobile. In the evenings, they als being organized music and dance for the teens in the camp.
Clementin comes back dissatisfied, grumbling in the room, and continues the games started on the mobile. In the evenings, they als being organized music and dance for the teens in the camp.
Clementin came with his group.
The teens were dancing with pleasure, pleased by exciting rhythms.
Slim girls with doll faces were waiting excited to be danced. One of them, was delicate, with blonde hair and blue-eyes, like the sea, she immediately cast a glance at Clementin, who looks attractive, with his contemptuous air looking superior compared to the other teenagers.
– What's with these girls ? They're not like the other girls we see on the Internet. I'm not dancing with them ! And, actually, in fact, I don't even know ! Come on , guys ! let's go ! What, this is music? Isn't at all like the ones we're listening to. They would better put us said the teen!
And the boys went back in their rooms, to play. During all the face days of the comp. Clementin's group didn't get out of the room. All the boys were playing on computers all times, while stealthily eating snacks. Because he had many ideas, Clementin once managed to get some bags of snacks. He asked the maid with a crying voice, giving her the money from his friengs :
– Miss, we are very hungry ! Buy as some snacks or bake rolls from the shop ! We can not eat anything else !
On the train platform, at the arrival, their mothers and grandmothers were waiting for them – because two of students of the group, were orphans, they were raised by them. They were happy because their children, were coming from the seaside being accommodated at a luxury hotel, for free, a place where the food no chance to take them, because of the financial possibilities; that in why they got them this camp for free.
The teens appeared weak, angry and with saddened faces.
– Did you enjoy the sea? asked one of them out of curiosity. A boy answered :
-We didn't like in at all ! The sea stinks ! And we are so hungry ! We almost starved to death !
The women rugged their beloved children.
And Clementin was shouting so loudly that all the people on the platform could hear :
-Mom, when we arrive home, you must prepare five pots of fries ! And we'll buy some snacks and bake rolls ! Like home !
– So, how was it, boys ? asked the teacher of the class. I struggled to obtain free tickets for you… I hope you ate and had a lot of fun…
-No, miss. We didn't know it would be this bad in the camp at the seaside. I will never go again in my life ! I think I've lost ten pounds ! We almost starved to death ! said Clementin.
In Greece, the group arrived at night at the place where they got the room, in the motel of that station.
The coordinator of the educational programm met them with hospitality.
– I get the best rooms for you. They have sea view, said the woman, knowing that teenagers were the Kids of some important people.
First, they went into they hotel rooms, then they went in the restaurant, to have lunch.
They finished lunch and they went back. Suddenly, the quietness of the hotel was interrupted by the sound of a broken glass, by screams and by dancing music. The teenagers started the party. No tourist in the hotel will sleep. They were all participating without them at the teenagers' fun. The walls of the building were vibrating because of the rhythms, that the teenagers liked, because of the sound of strident laughter and wild screeming. The went at until the morning. At the breakfast, no student appeared. They ware all sleeping, without any chance of waking un before lunch.
Adela, the teacher, was happy that in the group that she was responsible of, were only boys, so she had less to care. Her happiness, however ended shortly.
Marcel, one of the teenagers, a depressive winds was lamenting all the time, wo matter wher happening or was seen around him.
Matthew, his colleague, got a his fever. They put a thermometer and … stupor!
He had forty degrees! It had to bring in a doctor !
Adela was happy that she had the chance to visit some remarkable monuments from Greece. But the boys from the group weren't excited about the idea.
– Teacher, we want to stay in our rooms. They took out the sophisticated laptops and begon to handle them with dexterity.
"But we are at seaside. Don't you want to tan, to stoy on the sand, to go in the water in the Aegean Sea? asked the teacher.
– We can go later, in the hotel's pool. Our girls said that we will be there all day, said the teenagers.
– The girls? They don't want an the beach, too ? the woman was surprised.
– No, teacher. They were at the solar and … already perfectly tanned, said one of the boys.
Adela had to remain in the hotel, because she had to watch the students. The teenagers spent large sums of money, satisfying all their desires, buying souvenirs.
The food at the hotel was delicious, but they have completed it with sweets and sodas. They also had alcoholic drinks, but the chief program took them from the start and stopped them at the reception, and promised them that he will give them back when they will leave.
The evening came hard. Adela was bored watching, after the teenagers. She was sending messages on Facebook, contacting almost all of her family…
Suddenly, she began to hear loud an the door.
– The girls ! The girls disappeared ! said the boss of the program.
– But I don't have any girls with me. The other teachers are with them, said Adela, careless.
-Yes, but they locked themselves in their rooms and they're not
answering, said the organizer.
– And where do we find them? asked the teacher. We don't have any a chance to find them. The hotel is very large, the resort is stretched. And we're not detectives.
– We make some phones calls to some people our acquaintances and we Know and will friend them. The're in danger ! I know what you can do! If one is killed, it is serious, there is an international scandal ! said the woman worried woman.
But this is an unusual situation. The employees of the hotel surely recognize them, they are different and we will know where they are.
The program coordinator called the reception of the neaby hotels and transmitted without knowing, if one of the girls in the new group went into a room, with the foreign tourists.
After a short time, the phone rang.
The woman quickly said hurriedly to Adela:
– We're going to the hotel in the middle of the town. They're found there one of the girls. In front of the building was a taxi that started in order to the place that they were looking for. -Go to the seventh floor, room 723, where an Arab tourist was, the hotel's receptionist said. You will be accompanied by our director.
The women get there and the man opened the door of the room hotels with a magnetic card and… in front of then appeared a slim, blond, beautiful girl with a man.
The manager of the hotel politely apologized and explained the situation. The girls retruned coming with the school into a educational program and they were not over 18 years old. If they told heren whe… was the girl's father we can't imagine was the reaction of the man.
– Why don't you let me have… Fun ! I won't have any occasion like they is in a while, said the girl, after they drove her to the hotel.
The phone rings again.
-They're got the other girl in a beach hotel with a black man, said the coordinator of the programme. We need to get there as soon as possible!
When they opened the door of the room, the manager, accompanied by the women, saw a drunk black man with a superb, beautiful brunette also trunk, in the same condition.
With them was much easier then the other case. Both of them were laughing, as if something funny happened. The girl was driven quickly to the hotel in her room. And the black guy fell at slept.
The other girls were found one by one. In the morning they were king their apperence when the teachers saw that they have completed the mission. They were tired but happy at the same time with what they have done.
The bodyguards of the hotel got severe instructions, to strictly guarding the girls, who come with the religious education program. He let the girls party for all the nights.
The walls of the hotel were vibrating because of the music for five nights and days in Greece, music, fun and joy, exactly how long the programme lasted in Greece. The cute guys were thinking to un sunrise the teacher so they went to the beach.
The teacher sat under the sunshine, went in the began Sea and the teenagers played in the fine sand, in a deep pit , because one of them said that it will be fun . They book a selfie and posted their photos on face-book. But the return had also its adventures. They had to stay at the customs for a long time, but they were happy when they arrived home.

What can you do now?
If you are in need of funding asap, apply for the EIDL Advance(limited to $10,000)* with its 3 day funding. It is not forgivable but can be converted later to a PPL. As of this morning banks are still working out loan application logistics. Many will have online applications soon. If you want to prepare now, have ready:
- Your most recent IRS Form 941 – Quarterly Federal Income Tax Return
- Breakdown of your January 2019 – February 2020 payroll expenses (if you employ 1099 contractors, please include them in this report, but as a separate line item – we are still waiting on clarification as to whether we get to count this expense)
- Year End Financial Statements (2019) – Income Statement and Balance Sheet
Best practice is to segregate your COVID-19 expenses (including payroll, ER health insurance payments, ER retirement plan contributions, rent, interest and utilities starting February 15, 2020 until June 30, 2020) using classes, if possible.
There are two loans available right now that we can help you navigate. Below outlines each loan, the Paycheck Protect Program and Economic Injury Disaster Loan, and how they differ.
It is important to note that you cannot have both loans at the same time. If you receive an EIDL loan you can still apply for a PPP loan. Once you receive the Payment Protection Program loan you can refinance your EIDL loan into it.
Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) - Applying for a Small Business Loan – Initially borrowers were directed to apply for loans via the SBA website. As of March 31, 2020, the website only has an application for the $10,000 advance – maybe. We have applied but are not 100% sure we will be funded because the application process did not include any normal loan information.
*If you wish to apply for the Advance on your EIDL, please visit SBA site as soon as possible to fill out a new, streamlined application. In order to qualify for the Advance, you need to submit this new application even if you previously submitted an EIDL application. Applying for the Advance will not impact the status or slow your existing application.

Silver Winner Px3 2018
One of the best ways to start your morning is with an email that starts like this:
"Dear Joao Carlos,
It is my great pleasure to inform you that your work has been awarded a winning placement in The Prix de la Photographie, Paris (P×3) 2018 – Congratulations!"
During the past decade, Px3 has become one of the most prestigious photography awards in Europe thanks to the outstanding quality of entries and our distinguished jury of experts.
As you can imagine I am super excited, it's fantastic to get any recognition for your work let alone win awards. Usually, I don't participate in a lot of competitions, there are always many factors involved. Besides the financial investment, most contests have some kind of entry fee and add the time to prepare and send in your submissions. If you're like me, most of the time when I notice a contest, it's after the submission deadline. So I rarely enter contests.
To give you some insights of the shoot, I am sharing the behind the scenes video from this series.
If you want to check out my blog post about this photoshoot and how it was done follow this link.
If you are interested in the full gallery of this photoshoot click here.

I was again asked by Packt Publishing to review one of their books, this time, it was Automating Microsoft Azure with PowerShell. It came in good time, because I am starting to use Azure more and more, and PowerShell is a timesaver – actually, it is the only way to do lots of things. I have reviewed other books on Azure, which you can find at my blog, here.
The book starts with an introductory chapter, where PowerShell and Azure are introduced, and then goes to the real thing. Not all APIs are covered, namely, Machine Learning, DocumentDB, BizTalk, Stream Analytics, etc, etc, which is not really surprising, since it seems that every month a new service pops out. The book is ~150 pages long, distributed between 10 chapters, which is perfectly acceptable for the amount of topics it covers. The target audience is clearly administrators with little knowledge of Azure.
The author is John Chapman, which can be followed at Twitter as @chapmanjw.
Chapter 1: Getting Started with Azure and PowerShell
This chapter offers an introduction to PowerShell and how to install the Azure integration, retrieve subscription files and connecting to Azure. At the end of it we see how to create a blank website using PowerShell.
Chapter 2: Managing Azure Storage with PowerShell
This one is about storage. It explains about the major storage options that Azure has to offer – Table storage, Blobs, Queues and Files. Basic operations are discussed and we are presented with an example of a backup system.
Chapter 3: Managing Azure Virtual Machines with PowerShell
Next we have a discussion of the APIs available for the management of virtual machines (VMs). We learn how to create the many kinds of VMs existing in the Azure gallery, and performing all the typical operations, including creating snapshots and managing its storage.
Chapter 4: Managing Azure SQL Databases with PowerShell
In this chapter we learn how to create SQL servers and databases, configuring access to them, executing queries and finally exporting and importing data to and from.
Chapter 5: Deploying and Managing Azure Websites
Chapter 5 is about Azure Websites, the old name for Azure Web Apps. We learn how to create websites and how to provision them. Here I got the feeling that a lot is missing.
Chapter 6: Managing Azure Virtual Networks with PowerShell
A short chapter on how to configure virtual networks. Again, a lot more could be said on this.
Chapter 7: Managing Azure Traffic Manager with PowerShell
Azure Traffic Manager is Azure's load-balancing mechanism. It explains how to configure websites for using the different load balancing techniques and load balancing profiles.
Chapter 8: Managing Azure Cloud Services with PowerShell
Cloud Services is another way to host VMs. The chapter explains how to create and manage cloud services, roles and endpoints and how retrieve Remote Desktop connection files.
Chapter 9: Managing Azure Active Directory with PowerShell
This chapter explains the basics of the Azure Active Directory (AD), the main authoritative source of identities in an Azure virtual network. We learn how to create and configure the basic options of an AD, managing users, groups and password policies. The example at the end of the chapter is about bulk creating users in the AD.
Chapter 10: Automating Azure with PowerShell
The final chapter talks about one of the automation mechanisms in Azure. We learn how to create an automation account and how to add runbooks to it.
The book is very succinct, and some topics would require substantially more coverage. It does provide some information enough to cover the basic usage of the covered Azure services.


text: Fifty years ago today Yuri Gagarin blasted off into outer space in the Vostok I capsule. He was the first human we ever sent up into outer space. Today there is a lot of news coverage and acknowledgment of the achievement. Ironically, growing up in Cold War America, we only learned about Alan Shepard, the first American in space. As I was cutting up the outer space bits of my old childhood atlas, it was hard to find any references to the accomplishments of the Soviet space program. But 50 years later, it looks like Yuri is finally getting some of the recognition he deserved.

When police pull you over because they suspect you've been drinking and driving, they may ask you to take a Breathalyzer test.
It's important that you know the state of Wisconsin has an implied consent law that says, "Any person who… drives or operates a motor vehicle upon the public highways of this state… is deemed to have given consent to one or more tests of his or her breath, blood or urine, for the purpose of determining the presence or quantity in his or her blood or breath, of alcohol…"
That means you have already given your consent to a breath or blood test.
The police can ask you to take a preliminary breath test, which they can use as evidence to arrest you for operating while intoxicated, when they pull you over under suspicion of OWI. If you refuse the breath test, you can still be arrested – and police can test your blood for the presence of alcohol if you're arrested.
If you refuse chemical testing (breath or blood) after an OWI arrest, the state can:
- Revoke your driver's license
- Require you to install an ignition interlock device on your vehicle (and if you own more than one vehicle, you may have to install more than one)
- Require you to participate in an alcohol assessment
Can You Trick a Breathalyzer Test?
No matter what you've heard, it's impossible to "trick" a breath-alcohol test. Some common myths include:
- You can trick a Breathalyzer by sucking on a penny
- You can beat a breath test by using mints or mouthwash
- Breath tests have a hard time detecting alcohol if you smoke
- Breath tests are 100 percent accurate
Do You Need to Talk to a Lawyer About an OWI Charge in Wisconsin?
If you've been arrested for drunk driving, we may be able to help you. Call us at 414-383-6700 – we want to talk to you whether you submitted to a breath test or you were given a blood test after your arrest, or if neither occurred. We'll be happy to review your OWI case free and answer your questions.

Therefore, researchers are paying more attention to outdoor thermal comfort in urban environments as part of urban design.

scriptingnews1mail at gmail dot com.
My 40 most-recent links, ranked by number of clicks.
People are always asking about my bike.
Here's a picture.
FYI: You're soaking in it. :-)
First, it's wonderful to see people get excited about the idea of a minimal blogging tool built around RSS. I think intuitively people are beginning to feel that it's time for something more than Twitter, and at the same time -- almost paradoxically -- something less than Twitter too. This is the unbundling that happens in a cyclic basis in the tech business. A new activity boots up, a corporation forms to make it easy, then as more people become familiar with the activity, the training wheels come off, the bundle breaks, and components emerge that solve various aspects of the problem.
But people still tend to think in terms of products, rather than an activity, and when they do that, imho, they miss the point.
I was at lunch yesterday with Chris Dixon, a NYC-based angel with a very sharp and inquisitive mind. He was thinking in terms of a website to replace Twitter. I kept saying no, that's not it. If you like using a Twitter client, you're going to keep using a Twitter client. If you like using a site like Brizzly, you'll use that. But if you'd prefer that the primary place for your ideas to be published is tumblr.com instead of twitter.com, that works too. Or wordpress.com. Or your own WordPress server. Or Drupal. There's a key point. If there isn't a choice in there somewhere for your content's public home to be on your server, then we're still just offering you a choice of hamster cages, instead of freedom. And I suspect there will be even better places to publish your content, once the activities of authoring and reading are coupled loosely instead of being tightly bundled.
Marshall Kirkpatrick, another really smart dude, made the same mistake in his version of my piece about reallysimple.org. So what if I do plain, even ugly, designs. That's a valid approach. Some people think my designs are elegant. I love minimalism. When I write, I want you to see my writing, not my designing. If you go "Ho ho what a beautiful design" and miss the words, then I've failed. Same thing with user interfaces. If you are dazzled by the design but can't find the command, it's like the tree falling in the forest with no one there.
But no matter. If my site is ugly, but people still love it, guess what happens. Someone comes along and makes a site that does what mine does, but hers is beautiful where mine is homely. You think that bothers me? Quite the opposite!
It's like Arlo Guthrie's famous song Alice's Restaurant. If one person sings the song they'll think he's a nut and throw him in jail. But if two people do it, it starts to look like a movement, and if three people do it, it starts to feel like a standard (again, I'm paraphrasing). The ability to do the same thing many ways creates power in the land of technology. It's like Tom Sawyer whitewashing the fence. Make it look like fun, and then hope people rip off the idea. As long as we all do it the same way at the format and protocol level, then a thousand flowers can bloom. Becuase when users feel they have choice, they get excited, and when they're excited they move, and when they move we have growth.
It's also important that the pieces be small, so they can be shuffled and reorganized and combined in many different ways. That's where the developer creativity comes in.
Think of RSS as the equivalent of USB. It just says how components are connected. What the components do -- that's totally up for grabs. That's where we want lots of new ideas to spring forth.

Oddly the fault is for Cyan not black.
You did run the Eliminate Light Stripes procedure right?
To clean the printhead using the basic eliminate light stripes procedure:
We are having some issues with a ColorQube 8580. It recently started giving a error "93,599.00:3611" and locking up the entire system. I have been unable to figure out what this error means. When it gets this error, the printer is completely unresponsive. Sometimes rebooting the printer will bypass the error problem, others it goes right back into the errored state.
When the printer does manage to boot completely it will print, but there is still an issue. The black seems distorted or displaced on the printer. Below is a snip of the issue I am seeing. Near the edges of the paper the text seems better, but more to the center the numbers are completely unreadable. YOu can als see the S and second T in test as well a some other letters have some serious issues. I have run both the 'cleanings' avaliable in the printer menu, and have cleaned the plastic strip in the printer as indicated in the troubleshooting guides, but the problem persists.
Anyone have any ideas?

Family photography photo session in East Chop Club and Jetty Beach, Oak Bluffs MA.
family photographer martha's vineyardMax Bossman photographed my family while we vacationed on Martha's Vineyard. Prior to our trip I performed quite a bit of research to find the perfect photographer, lucky for me that I found Max's website and that he was available. Max and I decided on a location and I spotted him right away. He is the utmost professional, equally patient, and charismatic. Shooting a family of 6 with one of them being a two years of age is no easy task, but you would never know by looking at the pictures. The images he took of my family were exactly what I wanted.

Evidence-based market access value resource
Navigating the hurdles for a biologic obtaining a license in a second indication in key European countries
Hogue, S., Bjoerk, B., Walker, A., Balp, MM., Fernandez, M., Quijano, M., Ling, C., & Heyes, A. (2014). Evidence-based market access value resource: Navigating the hurdles for a biologic obtaining a license in a second indication in key European countries. Value in Health, 17(7), A431-A432. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jval.2014.08.1099
Market access for an innovative technology, such as a biologic obtaining a license in a second indication, can be complex and time consuming. Reimbursement is critical to rapid adoption of and optimal patient access to a new technology. This study aimed to determine the best approach for communicating value and providing field-based staff with value resources to facilitate dialogue with stakeholders in various scenarios.
We conducted desktop research of published literature, health technology assessment reports, clinical trials data, and third-party websites to identify the critical path and data most valuable to reimbursement decision making in order to prepare a communication resource. We conducted a country-affiliate workshop and qualitative one-on-one interviews with payer decision makers in several key markets to understand funding flow and the most appropriate means of communicating value to external decision makers.
The process and restrictions for biologics may be stricter than for other medications because of perceived high cost. There are multiple appropriate access pathways for various settings of care, all with varying requirements and value drivers. It is critical to understand the needs of external decision makers and provide field-based staff with a consistent yet customizable means of communicating the value of new technologies. All evidence and insights were synthesized into an evidence-based market access value resource for key stakeholder engagement.
The evidence-based market access value resource approach provides a clear, concise, and globally integrated value story that will assist in market access and form the basis of consistent communication regarding value at the national, regional, and local level across external stakeholders (e. g., payer decision makers, physicians, patient advocates). Access for a biologics will be complex; regardless of pathway, decisions regarding reimbursement and adoption of a new technology are diverse and dispersed across and within countries, with varying levels of required evidence.

Morehshin Allahyari
She Who Sees the Unknown
October 22nd
through January 7th, 2017
TRANSFER is pleased to present 'She Who Sees The Unknown' a new solo exhibition from Morehshin Allahyari.
She who saw all things in the broad-boned earth and beyond
and knew what was to be known
In her city, there was no 'outside', yet doors remained open and unlocked
Text from the video 'She Who Sees The Unknown: HUMA' (2016).
SHE WHO SEES THE UNKNOWN is a new body of work from Morehshin Allahyari on Digital Colonialism and 're-Figuring' as a Feminism and activism practice using 3D scanners and 3D printers as her tools of investigation. Researching dark goddesses, monstrous, and djinn female figures of Middle-Eastern origin, Allahyari devises a narrative through practices of magic and poetic-speculative storytelling, re-appropriation of traditional mythologies, collaging, meshing, scanning, and archiving. The exhibition launches concurrently with the start of the artist's one year research residency at Eyebeam where Allahyari will continue her investigation through public events, creating figures, speculative archival and writing methods and ceremonial 3D printing/scanning exercises.
In order to move beyond a simple binary view of West vs Islam / tech-future vs religious-history, Allahyari looks to forgotten, misrepresented, and suppressed histories and narratives. If the Jihadists express their power by performatively destroying the past and flattening the earth and the power of tech-utopian westerners over heritage is expressed through digital technologies that allow them to reclaim and colonize objects before and after they are destroyed, Allahyari's project offers a third method to re-situate power and remark history and ownership.
Allahyari states:
"My work undermines the uneven economics of Western technocolonialism and the performative rhetoric of Islamic fundamentalism, through a ficto-feminist-figural expression of power. I seek to makes visible the invisible power relationships emerging from the age of 'The War On Terror', current fashionable acts of cultural reconstruction, and the ownership/economics of 3D scanned data through a research-based practice and public engagement.
'She Who Sees the Unknown' includes new 3D sculptures, text, moving image and a public research program that takes the shape of a reading room and online public archive.
A full inventory of work from 'She Who Sees the Unknown' is available from the gallery. Please inquire with the email@example.com to request information.
Morehshin Allahyari is a new media artist, activist, educator, and occasional curator. She was born and raised in Iran and moved to the United States in 2007. Her work extensively deals with the political, social, and cultural contradictions we face every day. She thinks about technology as a philosophical toolset to reflect on objects; a poetic mean to document the personal and collective lives we live and our struggles as humans in the 21st century.

FEAST Feature of the Day: Lotta Lattes by Karen Koshgarian
This book has been very popular with gallery visitors here in this coffee-centric city. Not being a coffee drinker I had no idea so much "art" was involved in making coffee. Karen also did a great job creating texture on the pages with gel medium.Read more

It may seem like being happy is an easy thing to do, however, not everyone realizes that. They always say that happiness can cure illnesses, and can change one's outlook drastically. Learning how to be happier can improve your life.
Below are 10 simple ways of how to be happier that seem stupid to most people.
1. Be true to yourself.
"To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man." – William Shakespeare
You need to know what makes you happy. You also need to know what doesn't make you happy, and always keep this in mind. You don't always have to do things for other people that you do not want to do.
2. Smile even if everything is not great.
"Peace begins with a smile." – Mother Teresa
Smiling has been proven to make people happier, even though you may not be happy in the present moment. Thinking positively can quickly change someone's mood for the better.
3. Count all of the kind things that you do.
"The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." – Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you are feeling very negative about yourself, think about all of the nice things that you have done, and everything that you have accomplished.
4. Be kind to others.
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle." – Plato
You might think, "how can being nice to others make me happy?" You would be surprised. Try to do at least one good deed each day and you will see how being nice to others can make you feel great.
5. Make a list of what makes you happy.
"A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you're not living in alignment; you're not be being true to yourself." – Steve Maraboli
Sit down one day and create a list of everything that makes you happy. Thinking positively can really change and lift your mood.
6. Get some sun.
"When pain brings you down, don't be silly, don't close your eyes and cry, you just might be in the best position to see the sun shine." – Alanis Morissette
Slather on some sunscreen and sit outside for just 10 minutes a day. It will significantly increase your attitude and make you happier.
7. Be optimistic about things.
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." – Dr. Seuss
Instead of constantly thinking about negatives things in your life, think more positively and be optimistic about what may happen.
8. Pursue your passion.
"Love the life you live. Live the life you love." – Bob Marley
Do you hate your job? Start coming up with a plan to realistically leave that job you hate to pursue your passion. Being able to make an income that you are able to live off is important, but it does not mean that there are no jobs out there that you may consider fun.
9. Forgive others.
"People can be more forgiving than you can imagine. But you have to forgive yourself. Let go of what's bitter and move on." – Bill Cosby
Even though forgiving someone for something that was done may seem hard, it most likely needs to be done. It will help both of you move on.
10. Do what you love.
"Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally." – David Frost
Many people have excuses for why they can't do what they love. Stop making excuses and start working towards achieving your goals. Even little steps can eventually add up.

About the Book
Award-winning comics creator and author of the bestselling Invisible Emmie Terri Libenson returns with a companion graphic novel that captures the drama, angst, and humor of middle-school life. Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier, Jennifer Holm, and Victoria Jamieson.
Middle school is all about labels.
Izzy is the dreamer. There's nothing Izzy loves more than acting in skits and making up funny stories. The downside? She can never quite focus enough to get her schoolwork done.
Bri is the brain. But she wants people to see there's more to her than just a report card full of As. At the same time, she wishes her mom would accept her the way she is and stop bugging her to "break out of her shell" and join drama club.
The girls' lives converge in unexpected ways on the day of a school talent show, which turns out to be even more dramatic than either Bri or Izzy could have imagined.
Plus don't miss Terri Libenson's Invisible Emmie, Just Jaime, and Becoming Brianna!
Critical Praise
"Funny details of Brianna and Izzy's lives ring true as the author explores relatable topics such as middle school friendships, self-discovery, and family dynamics. Libenson stresses the importance of being true to oneself, and readers will root for the characters to succeed." — School Library Journal
"Libenson captures middle-school dramas—family, friendships, crushes, stereotypes, grades, self-discovery—with candor, fast pacing, and authentic, relatable characters. Positively satisfying." — The Horn Book
"Libenson nicely touches on classic middle-grade tropes, such as shifting friendships, crushes, and developing confidence. A poignant twist ending adds a heartening note to an already charming story." — Booklist
"The story is light but resonant for middle graders, with constant comedic asides in the illustrations." — Kirkus Reviews
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "This is middle grade fiction at its best. A fantastic debut novel with plenty of laughs and tons of heart. INVISIBLE EMMIE is unforgettable!" — Lincoln Peirce, author of Big Nate
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "Clever, funny work by a great cartoonist. Reading INVISIBLE EMMIE sums up middle school: You laugh, you cry, you get beaned in the head with a volleyball." — Stephan Pastis, author of Timmy Failure
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "This funny and heartfelt tale will ring true for anyone who's ever felt invisible." — Victoria Jamieson, Newbery Honor author-illustrator of ROLLER GIRL
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "In her first children's book, cartoonist Libenson offers strikingly different visions of seventh grade through two very dissimilar narrators. A well-executed twist will have readers flipping back to see what they missed while cheering the strides made by Libenson's no-longer-invisible heroine." — Publishers Weekly
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "With all-too-familiar middle-school drama and an empowering lesson about speaking up and bravely facing down embarrassment, this should find an easy audience among fans of Wimpy Kid or Dork Diaries books." — Booklist
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "Many readers will recognize themselves in Emmie and her friends, who are at once self-conscious and eager to be seen for who they are. A highly relatable middle grade drama." — School Library Journal
Praise for INVISIBLE EMMIE: "Libenson's clever tale will entertain readers in the throes of middle school as well as younger students both wary of and intrigued by their near future." — The Horn Book-

Mark VIII SE
The Mark VIIISE is the big brother to the Mark VIIICE. With the larger wax capacity it allows you to pour for a longer length of time before refills. We typically see these machines set up on a large production floor or next to a conveyor line. With these machines set up next to a conveyor line, you can now produce to order, instead of creating inventory and tying up money in it. You can produce finished goods on demand!! It's a win-win for everyone.
Pouring Capabilities
22oz (624g) Candle – 8 Seconds per fill
420 per hour
16oz (454g) Candle – 6 Seconds per fill
600 per hour
8oz (227g) Candle – 3 Seconds per fill
1,200 per hour
4oz (114g) Candle – 2 Seconds per fill
1,800 per hour
The per hour is based on a non stop run which the machine never stops for that hour. From the fill time you can get a rough idea of what can be produced per day by doing the math. The problem that most customers have is that they usually don't have enough table space or enough wickers or packaging people to keep up or stay ahead of the machine.
Standard Features
One person can mix base product with color and fragrance and pour countless candles in a single day.
Mixes precise amounts of paraffin, color and fragrance as you pump. Delivers the perfect mixture, in the exact amount you want, directly into the container or mold of your choice at a touch of a button.
Color and fragrance changes can be made in less than 60 seconds. Quick, simple and clean with no ruined batches and no wasted color or fragrance.
Container changes are fast and simple. Change to different size, style or shape container in seconds. Simply change the control settings and continue to pour.
The Mark VIII CE lends a whole new meaning to the term. Instead of pouring with a hot, heavy pitcher, you will be using a cool, lightweight, easy to use wand. You will be mixing fragrance, color, and paraffin and dispensing, all at the touch of a button.
Easy to operate, reliable, computer controlled, solid state circuitry allows you to precisely control every aspect of your production. Temperature can be controlled to one degree. Color and fragrance can be controlled to within 10th of a gram.
If you decide to change or add to your product line simply make a few quick adjustments and you are back in production in minutes.
Fragrance is not added until the container is filled so it can't evaporate before it is poured.
We utilize direct heat for the fastest possible melt times consistent with safe operation.
Using direct heat allows our melters to heat evenly and will not "burn" your product.
Coogar pumpers are well built and strong enough to give years of trouble free service.
We use high density fiberglass insulation for maximum heat retention, reducing power consumption and your operating cost.
We know safety is of the greatest importance to you just as it is to us, so we designed it into every aspect of our equipment.
With over 70 years of industrial manufacturing experience, you can expect the very best quality.
We design and build each of our machines, so we are able to provide the finest technical support in the industry.
Your Coogar equipment is warrantied against material defect for one full year.
All Coogar machines are manufactured in the United States.
All Coogar products comply with the European Conformity requirements and may be sold to the European market.

A cake for one or just something that will cheer the day up? Make the day successful with an easy chocolate cake in a mug!
As I recently have a little time, I had been looking on the web yesterday. In need of new, exciting tips, inspirational recipes that I have never tried before, to impress my family with. Looking for a while yet couldn't come across too many interesting stuff. Just before I wanted to give up on it, I ran across this fabulous and simple treat simply by accident on Suncakemom. It seemed so tempting
on its image, that required prompt actions.
It absolutely was not so difficult to imagine just how it is made, how it tastes and just how much boyfriend is going to love it. Actually, it is quite easy to please the man when it comes to treats. Anyways, I went to the blog and then used the step by step instuctions that have been combined with impressive photographs of the process. It really makes life less difficult. I can suppose it's a slight hassle to take pics in the midst of cooking in the kitchen as you most often have sticky hands so I highly appreciate the commitment she devote to build this blogpost and recipe easily implemented.
With that said I am empowered to present my own recipe in a similar way. Appreciate your the thought.
I was tweaking the main recipe to make it for the taste of my loved ones. Need to tell you it absolutely was an awesome success. They loved the flavour, the structure and enjoyed having a delicacy like this in the midst of a stressful workweek. They ultimately asked for lots more, a lot more. Thus next time I'm not going to make the same miscalculation. I am going to double the quantity .
The original Keto Chocolate Cake In A Mug is provided by SunCakeMom
In a preferably microwavable mug add flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder.
Add milk, oil and sweetener of choice.
Mix everything together until smooth. Mind to scrape the side of the mug several times.
Put the mug into microwave oven for 60 – 120 seconds depending on the power level used. Use a smaller mug when making this cake first time. Once the cake is poking out of the mug, we can take a note of the time needed for it next time.
With baking powder only we get an airy, crumbly texture.
It keeps as well as any cake but it will shrink in size.

Two Leading Safety Organizations Renew Partnership to Protect Workers
NSC and NIOSH sign agreement to promote best practices, engage employers in the fight to eliminate preventable deaths.
NSC and NIOSH sign agreement to promote best practices, engage employers in the fight to eliminate preventable deaths.
Itasca, IL – The National Safety Council and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) are renewing their partnership and agreeing to leverage their organizations' expertise, best practices, resources and strategies in order to engage employers in the quest to eliminate preventable workplace deaths. As two of the United States' foremost authorities on workplace safety, the Council and NIOSH will continue to jointly conduct research and evaluation, participate in occupational safety events and advance safety education, among other collaborative endeavors.
"Every worker deserves to come home safely at the end of each day," said NSC President and CEO Deborah A.P. Hersman. "NIOSH is the ideal partner to help us meet this critical challenge head-on. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and making our workplaces measurably safer."
While workers are 10 times safer at work than they are at home, the United States still lost 4,398 workers to preventable incidents in 2016 – the third consecutive year that preventable deaths in the workplace increased. That same year, an additional 792 people died from intentional incidents, such as homicide and suicide, at work. The costs to society for work-related injuries and fatalities totaled $151.1 billion. Costs include wage and productivity losses, medical expenses, administrative expenses, motor vehicle property damage and employer costs.
Collaboration is critical to curbing these trends. Representatives from NIOSH and NSC will meet periodically to share information, assess progress, and modify activities accordingly and evaluate results. Council representatives serve on NIOSH's National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) Manufacturing Council and Traumatic Injury Prevention Council, and NSC is a co-sponsor of the NIOSH National Occupational Injury Research Symposium (NOIRS), hosted in Morgantown, WV, Oct. 16-18, 2018. Additionally, NSC staff have contributed to the NIOSH Total Worker Health initiative.
In the last five years, NIOSH has supported the Council's various workplace safety initiatives, including disseminating information about how traffic safety issues and substance misuse impact the workplace.
"Worker safety is more pertinent than ever as unintentional injuries and fatalities continue to increase which adversely affects workers and their families," said NIOSH Director John Howard, M.D. "We look forward to continuing an active relationship with NSC, reinforcing prevention as key to health and safety, and disseminating the many scientifically-based resources and recommendations available to workers and employers."
More information about the partnership is available at cdc.gov/niosh.
About NIOSH
NIOSH is the federal institute that conducts research and makes recommendations for preventing work-related injuries, illnesses, and deaths. For more information about NIOSH visit www.cdc.gov/niosh.
About the National Safety Council
The National Safety Council is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to eliminate preventable deaths at work, in homes and communities, and on the road through leadership, research, education and advocacy. Founded in 1913 and chartered by Congress, NSC advances this mission by partnering with businesses, government agencies, elected officials and the public in areas where we can make the most impact.
With a century-long legacy, the National Safety Council is a global center for safety expertise. Let's work together to align resources. We look forward to learning about ways we can join efforts to expand safety everywhere!
