In my kingdom of home accent lighting, Brightech rules supreme. I'm listing four more Brightech lamps after this one because, for some reason, much of what the company sells is an absolute steal. Queen among them is the Charlotte. This is the flip of all flips — I am literally waiting for a buyer to ring my doorbell and pick one up as I write this. A mid-century modern reproduction, Charlotte is a perfect dupe for the Rivet Zoey at a price that's ten times lower. This lamp is invited to my wedding and my funeral.
Still, with Oscar picks like Moonlight, Manchester by the Sea, The Florida Project and Lady Bird flanking critical darlings like The Handmaiden and a handful of our picks for the best movies of 2017, like Good Time, The Lost City of Z, It Comes At Night, Brawl in Cell Block 99 and A Ghost Story, Amazon Prime is proving to have an eclectic collection of stuff you won't be able to find anywhere else. Like last month, Prime hasn't lost much at all in October, though The Witch went over to Netflix, leaving plenty of horror flicks to satiate this month's seasonal needs. Also now available: the X-rated version of Paul Verhoeven's mighty Robocop, one of the best movies ever made about Detroit and also about a robot cop.
GWW has seen a sharp pullback of late, dropping 26% from highs of just two months ago. Tariff and cyclical worries, plus a slightly disappointing Q3 report, have factored in. But the pullback seems to open an opportunity. GWW now trades at an attractive 15 times forward earnings. That's simply too cheap for what is clearly among the best Amazon-proof stocks. Grainger already has proven the skeptics wrong. It likely will do so again. And at a cheaper price, that's a bet worth taking.
Amazon's retail presence has continued to grow with a diverse mix of outlets. The company now operates 17 brick-and-mortar bookstores, Amazon Fresh grocery pickup locations, pop-up stores it locates in shopping malls, and four Amazon Go grab-and-leave bodegas. In 2017, Amazon acquired the Whole Foods supermarket chain, which currently operates 470 locations.
Amazon announced that July 15, 2015, its 20th birthday, would be "Amazon Prime Day", with deals for prime members similar to those on Black Friday.[19] That month Amazon Prime announced[20] signed up Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May, formerly of BBC's Top Gear, to begin working on The Grand Tour, due to be released in 2016. On July 13, 2016, Amazon Prime said customers placed 60 percent more orders worldwide on "Prime Day".[21]
In a voice test of various categories using the Amazon Echo devices last year, researchers at Bain & Co., found in categories in which Amazon offered a private-label product, Alexa recommended those products 17 percent of the time. Noting that the private label goods represent only about 2 percent of total volume sold, the Bain researchers said, "the online retailer clearly positions its own private labels favorably in voice shopping."
A.: Yes. Just visit Amazon Prime's gifting page, add it to your cart and follow the instructions to find out how you can give a yearlong subscription to a friend or family member. In your cart, before you check out, just make sure that the box reading "This item is a gift" is checked off, and you can fill in the rest of the information when you pay.
It's not difficult to imagine a different cut of Anna Rose Holmer's The Fits that hews closer to the arc of a traditional sports story. Hers has the makings of a familiar one, of a misfit who wants more than anything to compete—but unlike most stories of inspirational audacity, The Fits is as much about discomfort as the catharsis that comes with achievement. In it, Toni (Royalty Hightower) is an 11-year-old who has more experience with stereotypically male pursuits like lifting weights and punching speed bags than the usual interests of a pre-teen girl. She spends nearly all of her time at the Lincoln Recreation Center alongside her boxer brother, Jermaine (Da'Sean Minor), pushing her body to the limit. While she shows a remarkable aptitude for the ascetical devotion required for boxing, she still dreams about competing on the dance team, "The Lincoln Lionesses." Framed with a rigid sense of space by cinematographer Paul Yee, and backed by the groaning score from veteran composers Danny Bensi and Saunder Jurriaans, The Fits is infused with such dread that one can't help but imagine that characters' muscles and bones could break or shatter at any moment. The film's most explicit example of which may be Toni pulling off a temporary tattoo, but The Fits is firmly a story of metaphysical body horror, an allegory about our greatest fears of physical fragility shot brilliantly through a feminist lens. With that, the film manages to reinvent the sports story as something both brainy and physically pure. —Michael Snydel

"I think, effectively, you have a company that has conspired with about a billion consumers and technology to destroy brands," argued Scott Galloway, a founder of business research firm now called Gartner L2 and a professor of marketing at New York University Stern School of Business, in a presentation last year. "Their attitude is that brands have, for a long time, earned an unearned price premium that screws consumers."
Amazon released branded semiconductors to home equipment designers who are working on Internet-of-Things devices, WiFi routers and other smart home appliances. The chips come from Annapurna Labs, which Amazon purchased in 2015 for a rumored $350 million. On January 7, 2016, the company announced that its Alpine chipset was available for a wide range of applications.[153]
In October 2016, Amazon Music released a music streaming service called "Amazon Music Unlimited."[121] Unlike Prime Music with its somewhat limited catalog, this stand-alone music streaming service has "tens of millions"[122] of songs and is intended to compete with music streaming leaders such as Spotify and Pandora Radio. It has a similar price structure, albeit with a $2/month discount for Amazon Prime members.
The feature could prove useful for when you don't know the name of the product you're looking at, as with shoes. That could turn visual search into a new form of word-of-mouth marketing where every time an owner shows off a product, they're effectively erecting a billboard for it. Eventually, visual search could help users shop across language barriers.
Amazon Webstore allowed businesses to create custom e-commerce online stores using Amazon technology. Sellers selected the category for their business, and paid a commission of 1-2%, plus credit-card processing fees and fraud protection, and a subscription fee depending on the bundle option for an unlimited number of listings.[147] Amazon has chosen a limited number of companies to become an implementation solution provider for them.[148][149] The Amazon Webstore is no longer available to new merchants.
Amazon Vine is also available to non-Amazon brands, but, specifics around how the program works are difficult to determine because Amazon doesn't make it public. But many analysts say it is fairly expensive to participate, saying it can cost manufacturers as much as $5,000 to obtain reviews for one product, along with the cost of giving the product away. (The money to participate goes to Amazon; the Vine reviewers receive no compensation beyond the free product.)
On May 10, 2016, Amazon launched a Video Service called Amazon Video Direct which allows users to place videos available to rent or own, to view free with ads, or to be bundled together, and offered as an ad-on subscription.[120] Amazon will pay creators 50% of the revenue earned from rental or sale of the videos,[120] but for ad-supported videos, the makers will get a portion of ad receipts.[120]
In August 2007, Amazon announced AmazonFresh, a grocery service offering perishable and nonperishable foods. Customers could have orders delivered to their homes at dawn or during a specified daytime window. Delivery was initially restricted to residents of Mercer Island, Washington, and was later expanded to several ZIP codes in Seattle proper.[1] AmazonFresh also operated pick-up locations in the suburbs of Bellevue and Kirkland from summer 2007 through early 2008.

They were doomed from the start.
Three months before they got married, my father called my mother from his Upper East Side Manhattan apartment, just to say hello.
"Whatcha having for dinner, Cy?" she asked.
"A roast--" he responded. "It's in the oven."
"Who's coming?" she asked, suspicious.
"No one. It's just me," he answered.
"You're making a roast, just for you?" she said-
"And pommes Anna. And some asparagus."
He sipped his Gibson.
"And you?" he asked.
My father believed that it was his right to cook himself a lovely meal even if he was alone, and my mother thought that it was indicative of some visceral weirdness.
Seventeen years later, they divorced.
And at the time, had I read Deborah Madison and Patrick McFarlin's remarkable book, What We Eat When We Eat Alone, I could have predicted it. Because two people whose approaches to self-sustenance and pleasure are that uniformly different probably aren't going to make it. And ultimately, they didn't.
Yes, Deborah Madison is the Deborah Madison of Greens Restaurant and Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone fame, and a woman who has forever changed the face of vegetarian cooking in this country; Patrick McFarlin, an iconic painter, illustrator, and graphic designer, is her husband, and culinary and visual collaborator on the book, and in life. And together, they have created a work that was probably guaranteed from the start to make any traditional cookbook publisher's hair stand straight up: they wrote about the culinarily subversive, the secret, the seductive, the gastronomically onanistic. They did it by asking people to reveal what they do, and what they eat, in the confines of their own kitchens when no one is around. When they're alone. Behind closed doors. When no one is looking.
And people told them.
This may on the surface seem to be small beans, but in fact, it is a very big thing, because, as we know, no matter how virtuous one may seem in the kitchen, there are always secrets. It would be like watching my grandfather eating a BLT on Saturday after shul and before my grandmother came home from shopping. Or watching Alice Waters eating a Nathan's hot dog in her kitchen in Berkeley, when she thinks that no one's around. I'm not saying that this ever happened, but you get the idea.
If you watch the video that's attached to the project -- and make no mistake...it is a project, a living installation of sorts with its roots firmly grounded in food, art, and the magical contradictions of human psychology -- you can actually see participants run the gamut from slightly sheepish to absolutely forthright when asked what they cook for themselves when no one is watching:
Persimmons. Catfish fried in bacon fat. A can of pickled herring (was this lady one of my relatives?). A chocolate Sundae. Elbow soup. Tuna mixed with cottage cheese. Peanut butter and jelly (says the partner; "How do you know that," a voice in the background asks. "Because it's left on the counter").
At a time when food and eating has become a public and comestible form of entertainment; when it has become rightly politicized; when oversize cookbooks sit unopened on the coffee tables of people who wouldn't ever turn on a stove; when there is virtually no attention focused on the fact that the average home cook will spend far more time preparing meals for the people she or he loves (and sometimes doesn't) and then maybe go so far as to open a bag of jelly bellies when alone, this book is more important and timely than ever. (And indeed, the concept of eating alone as fodder for cookbooks has come out of the closet lately: Judith Jones' Cooking for One has reached scores of home cooks who find themselves single in a world of multi-portion recipes and ingredients.) What sets What We Eat When We Eat Alone apart is its utter uniqueness: it's packed with tales--hilarious, sad, touching, and deeply human--and while the stellar recipes are everything that you'd expect from Deborah Madison (they run the gamut from polenta with braised greens, to chilaquiles, to Frito pie and far beyond) the meat of the matter is in the book's delicious humanity, warmth, and unbridled intimacy.
Anyone who knows Deborah Madison's books knows full well that she should be declared a national treasure; what we -- what I -- did not expect was the balletic, narrative leap from practical kitchen instruction to personal storytelling, and from stove to soul that happens in this amazing work.
'Tis the season for cookbooks: publishers are putting out scores of them this Christmas. But for a book that will outlive trend and will appeal to vast numbers of us who relish the subversive idea that is the act of eating alone, this is the one.

In seven volumes Madrigal is a song without instruments moving through the peaks and troughs of the madwoman lost in love. There is nothing "more human" than the heart of a woman in love broken by the object of her love. Madrigal is the journey from madness to mediocrity the life she craves. It is melancholic in nature but the final volume Grace is a prayer for the future by accepting the pain of the past living in the present without expecting too much from the future. She wants closure to her pantomime of love, a life filled with constant anticipation and disappointment. All she ever wanted was to love and be loved.

So it turns out I am no longer immune to jet lag. Trying to get caught up on all my games seems more work than enjoyment at the moment.
Lichen is here mostly for moral support and muscle. He would prefer just to leave at this point. I don't want to drive things but will be happy to be helpful and to defend as best he can.
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
@All: Slammed at work, busy phase of ops going on with skeleton crew (alas not the undead, ceaselessly working kind). Likely tail end of the week before I get some clear air - please bot me as necessary.
@Lichen: Know that feeling - would like you to stay as Lichen is a cool character.
|Lichen the Wanderer

Oh. No, I am it talking about me dropping or changing characters. I am quite happy with the Druid. But "he" is not happy being where he is. I hope that was clear to most.

Gang - just a wee heads up that my last grandparent passed this morning :(
My Granny Connie was 97 and the matriarchal fulcrum of our pretty big extended family. I'm being pretty philosophical about it and the good life she led, but just a heads up that if I'm off beat over the next wee while please bear with.

Wee heads up gang - me and the missus are heading off to Dubai for our annual festive break with my brother-in-law and family from tomorrow.
I'm not back until the PM of 30th of Dec, and while I hope to post if/when I can, we may be pretty busy so presume it'll be sporadic at best.
I'll get some posting done throughout today, but likely tomorrow will be too busy and wanted to give everyone the heads up now.
- GMF as per WOTW please bot Vhaezil as necessary.
Regardless all have a superb festive holiday when it comes everyone - looking forward to continuing our devilishly macabre misadventures into the new year! :)
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
Apologies on the tardy posting gang - fell down the rabbit hole that is post-festive-work-catch-up.

@GMF/All: Just a heads up that I'm under the hammer at work with a bunch of ongoing offshore operations (I'm in O&G here in Scotland) - couple that with the additional headache of an internal audit this week means my posting may be intermittent/on the fly/limited.
In short please bot me as necessary until normal service resumes towards the end of the week :)

2 questions for when you have a moment,
- this dungeon is a theater of the mind not the 'Shattered Star Map' link in your header correct?
- the barreddoor int he undead's chamber was barred from the opposite side, I'm assuming. does that lead back towards the area we've already searched.
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
No worries chief.
Am guessing that GM-F's answer to the second quizzer from Dolgrin would be that we won't know until we open it?
We could get
Manimal Lichen to batter at it, see if there is any corresponding noise from one of the unopened doors?
|GM Fanguar
@Dolgrin: 1: I am running this dungeon as a 'theater of the mind' style, as it is supposed to be disorientating and confusing. If we get into a fight were positioning will matter, I'll throw something together for us to use.
2. You are reasonably certain that the barred door in the tomb does not lead back to where you came from. Your sense of direction is good enough to determine that, and the door itself is stylistically different from what you've previously encountered.

Zask who? :) (I jest)
Tis a pity - had hoped to see his descent into darkness (but in a more metaphoric sense lol).
Interested to see who you return with!
|Lichen the Wanderer
|Dolgrin Shieldarm
I've been a bit confused for quite a while but as Vhaezil stated looking forward to see what Zask 2.0 looks like
|Zask Quickhand
Well i think the nature of this dungeon / adventure is meant to be very dangerous. When i had the conversation with GMF the failed save meant that Zask had an uncontrollable urge to jump into the pit. That he wouldnt be able to resist himself. So I posted hoping to see if someone would interact with him. With no one showing any concern or doing anything really i guess i just felt the next logical step was to act and just play the game.
The pace has been very slow in the dungeon, so I wanted to push the narrative forward.
I'm not opposed to retroactively having someone save Zask.. ie, if someone wanted to try and make a reflex save / athletics check or something to try and grab him as he falls, that could be okay, but alternatively i am very happy with him dying and just rolling up something new and fun.
I think in the end I just wanted us to move forward, get out of this dungeon and progress. Perhaps the death of a friend would do that for the group, not sure.
I am very much looking forward to how you lot get out this death trap though.. dont dissapoint! :) Zask 2.0 is in the works, dont worry.
|GM Fanguar
Failing the will save just instilled the compulsion, Zask decided how to play it out.
If people want to ret-con the events, that is fine. I would go with an DC15 Insight roll to determine that Zask is behaving oddly, followed by a DC15 athletics or acrobatics roll to grab him when he jumps (if no one makes the insight check then this DC bumps up to 20).
|Lichen the Wanderer
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 4, 6) = 18
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 1, 2) = 9
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 4, 6) = 14
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 6, 1) = 11
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 5, 2) = 14
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 1, 4) = 12
And again...
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 1, 1) = 9
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 1, 4) = 14
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 6, 4) = 15
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 1, 3) = 11
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 2, 1) = 10
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 6, 3) = 13
And again...
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 3, 1) = 11 10
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 6, 4) = 15 14
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 6, 6) = 21 17
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 1, 3) = 9 8
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 6, 6) = 23 18
Roll: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 5, 3) = 16 14
That'll do....
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
Gang - wee heads up - work hammer is swinging hard this week. Bunch of offshore ops have converged for kickoff o'er the next 7-10 days which means I'm having to do a bunch of pre-job work and scheduling in the run up.
Between prepping rental kit packages, client meetings and getting my offshore teams readied, my heads frankly mince.
Bear with - posting opportunities might be fleeting, and content basic until later in the week.

|Zask Quickhand
Hey guys, it's been 5 days without any action. I know Vhaezil has been quite busy with work but is there just no interest in the dungeon or the game? Really has seemed like when it isn't Vhaezil or myself posting that it comes to a stand still.
I think it would be fair to the GM if you aren't interested in playing to let him know so we can inject some life.
|Lichen the Wanderer
I am online every day. But I am a druid who did not want to even come into this place. I agree the slow posting makes it hard to follow though. I have been confused for half of the current set of encounters. My vote is for the group to get out asap and maybe burn the place. IC I am trying to show that.
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
Think of the game as a slow burn (of hellish flame lol) - think the character's are great and plot is intriguing.
Have a feeling it will likely go Indiana-Jones self-destruct once we initiate something, but regardless we are trying to find clues to where Dolgrin's hereditary delve is.
|Zask Quickhand
I suspect the mini library we have accumulated might have the answers hah. Just have to take a few weeks to read them
|Lichen the Wanderer
|GM Fanguar
Ok just to be clear. The information that I PMed to Zask following his failing of the saving throw was that the PC was filled with a desire to jump into the pit and the conditions that would break the compulsion.
I am not urging PVP.
Also I specifically mentioned that the archive room had the books needed to find the location of the lost dwarven hold. Pack up the books and leave and you were done.
But you went on and killed the sacred parasite and well, as Vhaezil implied, the boulder is now rolling, still no reason you can't make it out alive.
Still if nobody posts, nothing can happen.
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
I'm not too fussed with the PVP - think it was in keeping with the warped nature of the Duvan'Ku - the very fabric of the place is tainting some of us.
Apologies - I totally missed that the books we'd discovered would lead to enlightenment of the delve's location.
Reckon we grab the valuable books, shield artifact and Zask (in that order ;) and skedaddle?
|Lichen the Wanderer
|Zask Quickhand
Sorry, let me explain a little bit.
I knew the conditions in which Zask would be freed from the compulsion. I attempted to (with little success) drop hints and hope for a non-confrontational resolution.
No body took the bites and resulted in him chucking himself into the hole and the struggle etc.
I role played the compulsion being stronger the second time around, and with Vhaezil actively attempting to get the shield off his back I figured Zask would respond (as he does with everything) with a bit of violence.
If nothing else it prompted everyone to post and react to him. (I am just role playing Zask, the halfling who has knows your characters for like no time at all).
I think this is is how i would have played it at a table as well.
Re: The Books. I saw the note, but Vhaezil wanted to delve deeper.. Zask is down for the challenge.
|Zask Quickhand
Seems like the consensus was to leave the dungeon with the books? So barring any new things... hopefully the PCs can just walk out?
|Vhaezil Fællanbóc
So barring any new things... hopefully the PCs can just walk out?
From the Depraved Dungeon of the Duvan'Ku? I fear not...
|Lichen the Wanderer
FYI - I'll be traveling in Scotland from July 4 though the 17th. I will have internet much of the time but not every day. So please bot me if I am holding up anything.

funny to see the skeleton dancing all dead at one place
. Here are the great personalities. Well done
Only 2 comments. Really. And thanks by the way rajeshstar and balodiya for almost always saying something. WHERE IS THE CONTRUCTIVE critiques if this only ranks 10th.
This is a pretty cool chop, with excellent compositional use of the source, but it lacks the feeling of space - the shadows are needed behind the figures/parts that are in front of other figures. Bin Laden's head looks flat because the beard does not cast any shadows on the sign it partially covers. Hands on the signs all lack shadows too. It'd be nice to adjust the light/shadows of the figures to match the location and intensity of the flames. The masking and sizes are also rough at places - e.g. Osama's hand is way bigger than Kaddafi's hand, while Osama's head is smaller than Kaddafi's hand. So, while the concept/composition of this chop is clever, the execution could use some improvement.
Funny Occupy Chicago Protest
This Friday we continue our freaking experiment with provided source images. Photoshop this image of this Occupy Chicago protest (image credit: Michael Kappel) any way you wish. Some examples are - re-dress these Occupy Chicago protesters, make them protest at some unusual places and perform some stunts, use this Occupy Chicago protest image in movies, paintings, etc. These are just some ideas.
Funny Protests
In this contest you are asked to photoshop protests. Whether you are for or against the war, it can get pretty tiring seeing all of these marches on Washington! Why don't people march for a cause that isn't as serious as war? Here is your chance to create the logo and theme for a fictitious "March on Washington"! Your contest must not be for or against the war, but must be for a mundane, absurd or quirky issue!! Examples would be "Million Mom March Against Skidmarked Underwear" or "Couch Potatoes For an Easier Way". Create professional themes or logos to support your rally!

so this post was inspiring...
here she is: ( the REAL RapunzelCollapse )
( here's a sample platter of undread to dreaded-nessCollapse )
ok guys, last night i just couldn't take it anymore...
i was sitting the the bathroom sink ( thats where i sit when i want to think about things ) and i said "gosh darn it i want dreads" so, i picked up a little pink comb and said "ok, so make one"
and i did.
just one. on the underneath section of my hair. even if it is only one and it's baby brand new i love it. i even named it >.<
now, i don't know how to dread and i was conidering letting it lock up the natural way but i figured itd be pretty hard to do that with only one piece of hair...
i'm not sure how having only one dread will work out. in any case im willing to try
so if anyone has techniques tips tricks (i cant get the ends to knot) and whatnot to make this little guy gorgeous like all of yours please do tell... i've already got the touch it all the time/sleep tricks down to a t =)
thank you!<333
p.s. for my first dread i think it came out ok =)
( the only childCollapse )
They are only 2 days old, and it is hard to see in this picture, but my hair is natural curly, & I'm scared they won't come out right.They will get better right?
Hello everyone, my name is Trudy and I'm 17 and I want dreads. The oh so lovely adonialetha introduced them to me about a year ago when she walked into art class with them and ever since then I've been completely intrigued by them. My mom isn't against dreads, infact, she's interested in them but doesn't want me to get them until I graduate high school because of senior pictures/graduation pictures, etc. So I guess to make a long and boring story short, I'm a dread fan but I don't have them and I'm joining gudu.
<3 Trudy
i was enjoying reading & sharing with everyone's opinions on dreadlocks & methods vs. results in the serious post from yesterday. but i'm taking a break from discussion to post a little ridiculousness of what you don't usually see with dreads...looking like a vintage & conservative classy lass member of society!
quick question: the wax is driving me mad, can I sort of pick it out here and there; using my nails or something? That won't do any harm, will it? You see, my hair is a little past midback, and my clothes look hideous: full of waxy residue and lint. I foolishly wore one of my fave t-shirts (Roman Dirge thing), and it looks miserable now.
Hey all I'm new.I've had my dreads for 2 years now. They started off real long but I've chopped them all off to my shoulders now. If I had a digi cam I'd show pics, but I don't. :( Any other Scottish/Polish dreadies online here?Names Kirsty by the way. :)
I was just wondering. My boyfriend is a dreadhead. Do you too have a dreadheaded partner? What is it like for you to have a dreadheaded partner? For me, sometimes it gets frustrated because my boyfriend has better dreadlocks than I do, and they're longer! And how is your dreadlock relationship? As in, do you take care of eachother's dreadlocks? I cut all the loose hair out of my boyfriend's dreads the other day and did some crotcheting. He in return, adviced me to go to the hairdresser to get my roots tied up again because my hair is growing out too far. So! Share your dreadhead lover stories! And pictures would be cool too.I would like to hear where you met your dreadheaded partner, how long you have been together, did you or he/she already have dreadlocks when you went into the relationship.- Tarona -( Additional PicturesCollapse )

More than a series of streets and houses, a sense of belonging is what makes us truly feel at home. Brunslea Park is a genuine community where people feel safe, welcome and connected.
"It's really expensive to build or buy a house in Sydney. We have friends there who own their own homes but their mortgages are through the roof, which seems very stressful to us. When we heard about Brunslea Park we thought it would be the perfect place to start our lives together. We were able to buy a block of land, build a house and we're living very comfortably. I just love being part of this community. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else."
- Kaitlin Link
"We never thought we would own our own home at this age, but given the housing prices and land prices in Wagga, it was too good to pass up. We chose to build because you get exactly what you want as opposed to buying something where you might not like the bathroom or the kitchen and have to renovate. Plus our brand new home has a warranty. It was such a smooth process."
- Matt Mattingly
"There are all these extra things that are going to be included here at Brunslea Park, like the parks and the proposed wetlands, which you'd just never get in your general run- of-the-mill estate. I think what makes Brunslea different is that it's a real, passionate journey for Sam. She wants to differentiate Brunslea from other estates and she knows it's important to listen to the residents as the development takes shape."
- Ellie Inman
"The Brunslea Park team has been incredibly helpful. We had a couple of hiccups in the building process with the lot we first considered so Sam invited us to have a look at Stage 13, which was yet to be released. We had the absolute pick of all the plots and we feel like we've got the best plot for the design of our house."
- Dom Inman
"We looked around when we decided to build. We've been in Young, which is a very tight knit community, and we were missing that living in Wagga. We went out to Boorooma, Estella Rise and also Lloyd. Darren from Dennis Family showed us out here and it felt like a nice place for us. It just felt right."
- Kristie McRaye
"I'm a bit of a worry wart, so every time I was concerned about something, I'd call Maddie and she'd make me feel better. Obviously, she gave us the rundown of everything that was going to happen but I'm just sort of one-brick-at-a-time, so she told me, 'We'll get this out of the way and we'll move on to that'. She was only ever a text message away, which was good. I've never really had that before."
- Mark McRaye
"We were in Canberra when Nathan sent us pictures of all the vacant blocks in Brunslea Park. I wasn't even looking at building. We had a walk through his house and then he showed us through all the Display Homes. Before we knew it we were signing a contract with Metricon Homes. We didn't have a block of land! Now my brother-in-law has purchased the block next to us."
- Jason Rowe

Some stairs that lead up to your attic will have a protection or guardrail to stop individuals from slipping down the stairs or off of them. Attic handrails safeguards can offer property owners with a little assurance if they simply adhere to the handful of basic actions. See to it that the handrails are at least 42 inches in height. 42 inches is the minimum altitude for guard rails and may be looked for in the uniform building regulations.
The uniform building regulations is the Bible to the building market and set the requirement for current building and renovation work such as replacing garage door springs Las Vegas.
The 42 inches will be estimated from the flooring to the top of the handrails. Some older houses will have handrails that are 36 inches and a few of them will be in fact, 30 inches in height. A 30-inch handrail gives minimal safety for anybody who is more than 5 foot high. 30 inches ends up being the focal point for anyone over 60 inches and these individuals might simply tip over the short handrails.
Now for the houses that do not have any attic hand rails safeguards systems. Some houses that were constructed prior to the 1960s will not have a handrails system at all in the staircase. Keep a little something in mind here, when these individuals were constructing these homes, a few of them were attempting to save cash, a few of them figured that it wasn't going to be a big deal and other contractors basically forgot to install them.
It's not difficult to set up a working attic handrails for protection however always remember that if the handrails aren't the ideal height, it will offer you minimal security. Attic handrails that are lower than 30 inches can offer little ones or others who are smaller than 5 feet with really little safety, however, might be a security threat to anybody over 5 feet high.
If your attic does not have a security handrail, use caution and look out in these places of your house. It would not be a bad plan to set up a locking doorknob if your attic has access to a door that can be safeguarded to stop little kids or other individuals from getting in these risky places.

Laurence Vance says, "There is nothing positive about the DEA. Everything it does is pure evil: unnecessarily clogging the judicial system, asset forfeiture, no-knock raids, destroying property, criminalizing vice, arresting and incarcerating people for committing victimless crimes, destroying personal and financial privacy, ruining lives, devastating families, wasting the taxpayers' money. And on top of all that, it has not reduced drug use, drug availability, drug demand, or drug overdoses." Agreed. Dr. Vance is addressing the sweeping legislation that Donald Trump signed into law to combat the opioid addiction crisis. It sounds like police state on steroids (sorry).

cause English laws allow them to get gold from the English cheaper than their goods can be obtained. "Suppose a merchant in Britain buys £100,000 worth of corn from America and gives a check on the Bank of England for the amount of the purchase. The American draws the £100,000 in gold and takes it home; he will have to pay no export or import duty thereon—indeed, the probability is he may get a premium on the gold in America. But reverse the transaction: Suppose the British merchant sold £100,000 worth of his goods to America, there would, in the first place, be the exorbitant duty imposed there upon our manufactures of from forty to fifty per cent. Or suppose our merchant wished to buy corn or any American produce in exchange for his goods in place of bringing money, the case would be different—it would tell against the American farmer, who would get a less price for his corn, etc., than he would have done by free trade." This instance is given "to show how free trade in gold would bring about free trade and reciprocity between the United States and Britain, and is applicable to every other state with which we trade.… There should be full scope given to all good banks in the country, large or small, to carry on banking business in the best modern manner for the benefit of all parties, so as to encourage and develop all trades and industries."
Rats and the Plague.—In his introductory address at the opening of the London School of Tropical Medicine, Dr. Manson preached a war of extermination against rats with the vigor of Cato calling for the destruction of Carthage. "Were I asked," he said, "how I would protect a state from plague, I would certainly answer. Exterminate the rats as a first and most important measure." He added, "At the present juncture, were I the responsible sanitary head of any town in Europe, in anticipation of a possibility compared to which in horror and in destructiveness a general European war would be a trifle, I would do my best to have every rat and, if possible, every mouse in my district promptly exterminated." Dr. Manson does not reveal his plan of campaign. Wholesale poisoning of sewers might have serious disadvantages, and there would be difficulties about inveigling the rodent population of these subterranean health resorts (as some enthusiasts consider them to be) into a lethal chamber. Are we to cry havoc and let slip the cats of war? or to hurl an army of snakes against the foe? In either case we might find ourselves in the awkward position of a king who had called a too powerful auxiliary to his aid. Already action is being taken on the rat theory of plague. The French Government has ordered that special precautions are to be taken to prevent the importation of rats in vessels from plague-stricken places. It is to be hoped that similar precautions will be taken in regard to the transports which convey the Indian contingent to the Cape, or the situation there may become complicated by the intervention of an enemy who will deal destruction impartially to Boers and to Britons.
Forestry in California.—As a remedy for the devastation of the forest lands of California, Marsden Manson, having shown that Government administrations with politics in them can not be trusted in the matter, recommends that all forest reservations and public lands upon mountain slopes within the borders of the State be granted to the University of California in trust, for the purpose of maintaining, developing, and extending the water supply of those regions forever. For this purpose the regents should be empowered to lease, under proper control, the timber cutting and pasturage privileges of those areas, and to use the resultant fund to protect the catchment areas, to maintain a college of practical forestry, to construct reservoirs at such points as may be necessary to the industries of the State, and dispose of the water for the benefit of the trust, to acquire mountain lands to be added to the catchment areas, and to do all such things as may maintain wise systems of forest and water conservation and use. The extent of income-bearing property which can be made available for forest preservation and storage of flood waters, Mr. Manson says, is far beyond the general idea.

Hi, I'm sure it must feel better to tell your story, it's good to talk about the things that trouble us.
It seems your husband has a serious problem with gambling and taking responsibility for his family. It must have been painful to know he was gambling at the time of your child's birth, when he should have been at your side.
Do you have family or friends that you can talk to or rely on for emotional support?
You said your husband got angry and slammed the chair while you were holding your son. Do you fear him? Has he ever hurt you or your child? It's very important that you know you do not have to tolerate abuse.
I'm unsure which country you are living in, so I don't know what help is available to you.
Have you thought about leaving him and moving back with your family until you can make a good decision about your future and the future of your child?
I will pray for your safety and hope to hear from you soon.

Keep up the school thing and your education.
SEe if there are any free classes - like a hobby class that you could attend to start making friends.
Check for a group for families of people who Gamble...Gamblers anonymous...it might help if you could learn from others how they handle a loved one who gambles.
Share with your parents your needs.
They are already worried...
You can grow into a truly independent woman and get your life together for you and your son.
It's to bad your husband is this way but you have your child to worry about.
Good luck

You are an intelligent woman. I agree you need friends who don't have their own problems to reach out to, especially if you don't have family here. I am also a parent and I know that you want what is best for the situation. You also want your son to excel in whatever he does....and you don't want a bad life for him. Good friends will help you strenghten yourself and surround yourself with the kind of people you want your son to know and grow up around.
Find and keep good people around you Honey!

The goal of this essay is to make people aware that the government of the city of Buenos Aires closed and seized the CAyC al Aire Libre [CAyC in the Open Air] exhibition three days after it opened. The essay also asks for the support of those who believe in the Centro de Arte y Comunicación [Art and Communication Center] and its efforts to promote a "national culture and art," and urges them to demand a review of the measures that were taken. In support of this request is a brief statement concerning the origins of the exhibition: how the idea was born, the type of works involved, and some background concerning this kind of event in CAyC's history, among other details.
In 1968, the Centro de Estudios de Arte y Comunicación [Center for Art and Communications Studies (CEAC)] was created, which, shortly after its first public event at the Galería Bonino (August–September 1969), changed its name to Centro de Arte y Comunicación [Art and Communications Center (CayC)]. Always led by Jorge Glusberg as director and theoretician, the CAyC sponsored several different artists throughout its time. In 1971, the Grupo de los Trece [Group of the Thirteen] was created, made up of Jacques Bedel, Luis Benedit, Gregorio Dujovny, Carlos Gizburg, Víctor Grippo, Jorge González Mir, Vicente Marotta, Luís Pazos, Alfredo Portillos, Juan Carlos Romero, Julio Teich, Horacio Zabala, Alberto Pellegrino, and Jorge Glusberg. Later on, some artists moved on while others were included; in 1975, the CayC Group included the participation of Bedel, Benedit, Grippo, Portillos, and Glusberg.
As part of the interdisciplinary action that the CayC intended since inception in 1969 ("Qué es el CEAC" [What is the CEAC], during the Primera Muestra del Centro de Estudios de Arte y Comunicación de la Fundación de Investigación Interdisciplinaria presentada en la Galería Bonino de Buenos Aires, [First Exhibition of the Center of Art and Communication Studies of the Foundation for Interdisciplinary Research presented at the Bonino Gallery in Buenos Aires] August–September 1969), the organization of courses and seminars taught by acknowledged intellectuals gets started. Beginning in 1973, with the founding of the Escuela de Altos Estudios [School of Advanced Studies] of the CAyC, this type of activity fell under their scope.
CAyC al Aire Libre [CAyC in the Open Air] or Arte e Ideología, CAyC al Aire Libre [Art and Ideology, CAyC in the Open Air] (Plaza Roberto Arlt) was one of the three parts of the Arte de Sistemas II [Systems Art II] exhibition held in Buenos Aires in September 1972). The other two were Arte de Sistemas Internacional [Systems Art International] (Museo de Arte Moderno),and Arte de Sistemas Argentina [Systems Art Argentina] (Centro de Arte y Comunicación).
"Arte de sistemas" was the term coined by Jorge Glusberg to define the various artistic proposals carried out within CAyC's sphere of influence. According to this definition, a work was understood as a system of signs that could, in turn, refer to a variety of codes: political, ecological, conceptual, and cybernetic, among others. Therefore, above and beyond the myriad meanings suggested by the works, they all had something in common in that each could be classified as a system. This meant that the works could theoretically be either mass produced or multiplied in some way, thus stressing the relevance of the creative process rather than the finished product.

The construction of a new cycleway in south-east London will get underway in July, with 4km of two-way segregated track among the key safety features.
Cycleway 4 will run between Tower Bridge and Greenwich and is designed to 'get more people out of their cars and into cleaner greener forms of transport'.
TfL has been working closely with Southwark, Lewisham and Greenwich Councils on plans for the route, including:
- A 4km two-way segregated cycle track on Tooley Street, Jamaica Road, Evelyn Street and Creek Road
- Five new signal-controlled pedestrian crossings and upgrades to more than 20 existing pedestrian crossings
- An overhauled Rotherhithe roundabout, as part of TfL's Safer Junctions programme
- A new eastbound bus gate on the Jamaica Road approach to Rotherhithe roundabout
- New and improved street layout at Deptford High Street and Rotherhithe roundabout, including new paving and trees
Work will start in July on an initial 1.8km section of segregated cycle route between Tower Bridge and Rotherhithe Roundabout and includes new pedestrian crossings along Tooley Street and Jamaica Road.
Sadiq Khan, mayor of London, said: "I'm delighted that work is about to begin on this major new cycle route in south-east London.
"High-quality segregated cycle routes greatly increase the number of people who feel confident cycling on our streets and with new pedestrian crossings along the route, road danger will be substantially reduced for thousands of pedestrians too.
"Boroughs like Southwark, Lewisham and Greenwich really understand the huge benefits of investing in high-quality walking and cycling infrastructure.
"With record investment from TfL we will continue to work with boroughs who share our vision to tackle London's inactivity crisis, reduce road danger, and get more people out of their cars and into cleaner greener forms of transport."

From now onwards, visitors to the popular Adomi Bridge would not only need a good phone with a good front camera, but will also need some cash in their pockets to take a selfie.
Yes, you saw it clearly. You may now have to pay between GH¢2.00 and GH¢4.00 to pose for a picture on Kwame Nkrumah's Adomi Bridge.
This long bridge which sits on the Volta Lake in Ghana was constructed by Ghana's first President and recently renovated by the previous government to avert any possible danger to the lives of motorists using that route.
The current government has instituted this levy as a measure to rake in some revenue to sustain the numerous ongoing projects.
However, tourists have taken to social media to cry over the levies expressing disappointment at this move by government.
A Ghanaian comedian, Johannes Nartey, took to Facebook to lament after being asked to pay GH¢4.00.
READ ALSO: Is "…taking the girls away" the best advice you could give to the youth? Aboa!! — Shatta Wale to Ackah Blay
He wrote; "Your excellency Mr. President, this is the receipt given to me today 19th April 2019 at Adomi bridge as fee for pictures I want to take as a Ghanaian on the bridge Kwame Nkrumah built and which Mahama renovated. The people in charge told me that the order is from the President, that even if you want to take selfie it's 2gh per person. Your Excellency if indeed you authorized this God forsaken tax then am disappointed in you. How much do Ghanaians pay when they travel to Dubai, China, American, etc yet those countries are 100× developed. Even China's world's longest 30 miles sea bridge to Hong Kong is free, what is happening? What a shame!!!!

How to choose a specialist
1. Is the surgeon a specialist in the required field?
Colorectal surgery requires a minimum of 2 years training after completion of General Surgical Training. Colorectal surgeons are specialists for general surgery as well as colorectal surgery and are competent in colonoscopy as well.
2. Does the surgeon have a public teaching hospital appointment?
Appointment to public teaching hospitals is extremely competitive and only the best trained and competent surgeons will be awarded this. It is much easier to obtain a private hospital appointment. Surgeons in public hospitals work together as a group and have the opportunity to meet and discuss patients regularly. In addition public appointments require the surgeon to participate in the Royal College of Surgeons Training programme.
3. Does your surgeon discuss cases in a Multidisciplinary forum?
Surgeons with access to public hospital multidisciplinary meetings can discuss both private and public patients with colleagues to deliver the best outcomes.
4. Who should perform your colonoscopy?
Both colorectal surgeons and gastroenterologists perform colonoscopy equally well. However only colorectal surgeons can perform other surgical procedures at the same time eg haemorrhoid treatment. This may result in fewer operations.

Several enhancements and improvements to the Livestock Risk Protection insurance program will take effect July 1.
LRP is an insurance contract offered by the USDA Risk Management Agency to help livestock producers protect against unexpected downswings in market price.
One change is that LRP insurance coverage for fed cattle, feeder cattle and swine is expanding to include all 50 states. Several other changes will be of interest to Nebraska cattle producers:
Subsidies. LRP premium subsidies will increase from 13% for all coverage levels to a range from 20% to 35% based on the coverage level selected.
Per-head limits. The per-head limits will increase from 1,000 head per coverage endorsement and 2,000 head per producer per year (July 1 to June 30) to new levels of 3,000 head per coverage endorsement and 6,000 head per producer per year.
Trading requirements. Chicago Mercantile Exchange trading requirements are being updated to allow for more insurance endorsement lengths to be offered to producers to buy. Currently, a daily volume of five traded contracts is required to offer LRP endorsements.
Price adjustment factor. The price adjustment factor for predominantly dairy cattle is being modified to 50% for both weight ranges of feeder cattle to more accurately reflect market prices. The current adjustment factors range from 80% to 85% based on weight class.
Price and market uncertainties pose a significant risk to cattle producers with a substantial amount of money invested in breeding livestock, land and other infrastructure. Price protection through an insurance tool such as LRP could be an important risk management tool for producers to protect that investment.
Like most insurance products, producers should not buy LRP hoping to collect on it. All else being equal, the preference is for good, strong market prices to prevail. However, it should be of interest to producers considering the need for market price protection to see how LRP has performed over the years.
LRP is available in many forms, terms of length and coverage levels. For the purposes of this article, Nebraska Extension economists evaluated the LRP feeder cattle contract for steer calves weighing less than 600 pounds from 2009-18, looking at a 13-week coverage endorsement taken out Aug. 6 (or the subsequent Monday if Aug. 6 was on a weekend) of each year at the highest coverage price available.
This resulted in an ending date of Nov. 5-7 of each year. The premiums reported here are the producer premiums after the 13% subsidy been paid by USDA under the current policy rules.
As shown in an Extension table, over the 10 years analyzed, total producer premiums collected exceeded indemnities paid out by an average of $1.15 per hundredweight.
The indemnity ratio over these 10 years was 0.68, meaning that if a producer consistently insured the same quantity each year, each $1 in premiums paid into the program would have yielded $0.68 back in indemnities.
Over the 10 years, actual ending values were more than expected six times and less than expected four times, but in 2010 when it was less than expected, it was not below the highest coverage level available and no indemnity was paid out.
The last two rows in the table show what the results would have been had the new higher subsidy rates been in place. The increased subsidies would have reduced the producer premiums by an average of $0.63 per hundredweight and increased the indemnity ratio to 0.83 over this 10-year span.
The primary purpose of LRP insurance is to provide producers with a tool to protect against unexpected downward price movements in the national market. In 2009 and 2016, it did its job well. The hope is that prices are strong and it is not needed.
However, for producers who are concerned about the markets moving against them, it can be a valuable tool that helps meet their risk management goals for protecting returns. With the upcoming changes to the program, it becomes a more affordable and available tool for producers to incorporate into their marketing programs.
For information on the details of LRP insurance for cattle, readers are encouraged to consult two University of Nebraska-Lincoln NebGuides on LRP-feeder cattle and LRP-fed cattle.
Parsons is a Nebraska Extension farm and ranch management specialist, and Jansen is a Nebraska Extension agricultural economist.
