Hardened Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 x64 for Cluster Instances
Product Overview
Cloud Buddha are pre-hardened Amazon Machine Images (AMI's) in preparation for security and compliance audits. This baseline was inspired by the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Benchmark helping you achieve baseline compliance with the publicly available security policies as soon as the image deploys. The result is an immediate cost savings by reducing to zero the time an AMI runs unproductively as the administrator configures the image for compliance. Cloud Buddha provides full audit reports in Excel and HTML formats for submission as part of a compliance audit, which are available via our Zen Support Portal. For Buddha Labs to remain in compliance with CIS' terms and conditions, specifically Restrictions(8), note there is no representation or claim that this profile will ensure a system is in compliance or consistency with the CIS baseline.

The differential diagnosis is similar with all of these lesions and focusses around difficulties differentiating between primary CNS tumors and lymphoma, leukemia, and a range of metastatic deposits. Other Conditions and Cell Types Intracranial hemorrhage may be confirmed on CSF cytology, although of course a traumatic or bloody tap needs to be considered. One useful tip is that traumatic taps will settle to leave a clear supernatant while genuine subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) produces a xanthochromia and spectroscopy may detect hemoglobin and/or bilirubin.
Several stains may aid visualization including PAS, Alcian Blue, and India ink. Rarely, air trapped beneath the coverslip looks refractile, and one should not be misled by this. Starch particles contaminating the sample may also appear similar, but the fungi do not have the Maltese cross of starch when polarized light is used. The India ink test is still used for detection of meningitis caused by Cryptococcus neoformans, but the cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) test has a higher sensitivity. Small spores and pseudohyphae of Candida are recognized in less than 50 % of cases of candidal meningitis.
Another possibility is an adamantinoma (craniopharyngioma) which will usually be located in the suprasellar region. Clues include a predominance of anucleate squames in craniopharyngioma with foreign bodytype giant cells and cholesterol crystals, although one may not be able to tell which of these possibilities is correct on cytology alone. Metastatic squamous cell carcinoma can also present as a "cystic lesion" in the brain (Fig. 12). If just necrosis is present, one cannot be confident of the diagnosis, in particular exclusion of malignancy, and the sample should be considered nondiagnostic.

One of the things the English teachers in Niigata discovered their first December in Japan is that it's awesome.
They arrive during Hell and enjoy the temporary relief of Awesome, but then discover why their new home is nicknamed "Snow Country" when they sky turns grey and falls for days, and even throws in some lightning and thunder.
By the time December arrives, they been through one phase of culture shock, are in a second, and are desperate to get home to see loved ones or desperate to get to Thailand to, well, yeah. On the way, the one's heading home, arrive in Tokyo and discover it is bright and sunny and relatively warm. Tokyo suddenly becomes their favorite place to visit in the world during the season of Static.
This winter, thanks to the recent El Niño, has been an extension of Awesome. In fact, until last weekend, it had been light Jacket weather–note: my colleague from Hawaii strongly disagrees with that description. Normally it's cold, but sunny with a rich blue sky. Then suddenly, in January, it isn't. Today, especially, it wasn't.
Last night it started raining and when we woke up, we found four inches (10 cm) of snow on the ground. The news reports also had lists of trains that had been delayed and the one I take was on it. The train problems occurred farther up the line in the foothills and mountains but several train lines in the flatland were also having trouble. That sent me to the computer to discover that the start of classes had already been delayed an hour at the school where I work.
Our youngest's school had been delayed two hours but our oldest's was still on schedule. (Being a teen she, of course, went to school with no winter coat or muffler.) Then, after more updates, my train line was shut down completely.
I ended up working at home–although the reasons for this are complicated–as I used the opportunity to do some re-planning and lesson planning.
At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I hate it when we have erosion in our fields. I try to make sure that doesn't happen, but it's hard to avoid entirely. A summer downpour is hard on a freshly tilled field.
Agriculturally-caused topsoil loss is a very serious problem these days. I've just finished reading Mark Shepard's Restoration Agriculture and he makes a convincing case for perennial food crops rather than annuals, in large part to protect and preserve topsoil. He correctly says that anywhere annual crops are grown, it's easy to find eroded and degraded land.
A few days ago I took advantage of a pleasant afternoon to go fishing. While waiting for a bite that never happened, I noticed the hillside along the creek that feeds the pond.
Nature carved that ditch, over many hundreds or thousands of years. But notice how nature also healed it. There are trees on the hillside, and where it's too steep there is moss. No matter how hard it rains now, that hillside is not going to erode.
It's common these days to hear people say things like "We're destroying the planet." The reality, it seems to me, is that no matter what we do, the planet will be fine. It's humanity we're in danger of destroying, not the planet.
If as a result of unsustainable agricultural practices we deplete all the topsoil, we may starve. But meanwhile nature will just patiently go about the multi-thousand year task of making new topsoil.

Nancy Knudson practices a wholistic approach to health and wellness, which means that she look at how all areas of your life are connected. Does stress at your job or in your relationship cause you to overeat? Does lack of sleep or low energy prevent you from exercising? As You and Nancy work together, You and she will look at how all parts of your life affect your health as a whole.
Nancy's approach is not to dwell on calories, carbs, fats, and proteins. It is not to create lists of restrictions or good and bad foods. Instead Nancy works with clients to create a happy, healthy life in a way that is flexible, fun and rewarding.
As a member of the Institute for Functional Medicine Nancy has access to critical tools for helping people on their journey and she continues to learn from the top functional medical doctors such as Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Jill Carnahan, Dr. Amy Meyers and so many others.

Integrative Nutrition® Plate
The Integrative Nutrition Plate emphasizes the importance of local and organic produce, whole grains, high-quality proteins, plant-based fats, and water. It shows you how a plate should appear at mealtime and emphasizes the importance of proportions and portion size. To complete the picture, the plate is surrounded with lifestyle factors that create optimal health: relationship, career, physical activity and spirituality. Nancy will introduce you to some of the healthiest foods on the planet and teach you how to find what's healthiest for your unique body!
Primary Food™
It's easy to overlook all of the things that contribute to our sense of nourishment and fulfillment. It's not just the food we eat that affects our health, but all of the other factors present in our daily lives.Healthy relationships, a fulfilling career, regular physical activity, and a spiritual awareness are essential forms of nourishment. When these "primary foods" are balanced, what you eat becomes secondary. I will support you in achieving all of your goals, from eating the right foods for your body to living an inspired, fulfilling life.
Crowding Out
Many nutrition experts give their clients a list of foods to avoid and foods to eat, which explains why so many people are turned off by nutrition. Nancy Knudson's approach is different – by eating and drinking foods that are good for you, you will naturally have less room and desire for unhealthy foods. Simply put, you will "crowd out" the unhealthy food in your diet. This takes a little practice to make happen, but she will support you all the way.
The concept of bio-individuality is the idea that each of us has unique food and lifestyle needs. One person's food is another person's poison, and that's why fad diets tend to fail in the long run. Working on the principle of bio-individuality, Nancy Knudson will support you to make positive changes that are based on your unique needs, lifestyle, preferences, and background.
Deconstructing Cravings
Cravings play a critical role in understanding what your body needs and shouldn't be ignored. When you learn how to deconstruct your cravings and understand what they're really telling you, you will be able to reclaim a sense of balance and harmony.

Looking for a new read? Seriously, pick up this book.
For a long time I wasn't interested in books, reading the first couple of pages and getting bored almost immediately. I hadn't picked up a book (by choice) for the majority of 2018 until I went on holiday, where I finished two in the week I was away. I got back and didn't read again.
Until Everything I Know About Love. A book that beautifully captures the complexity of growing up, getting older and experiencing different love along the way. But it is not all that it may seem. This book is embedded in the true love between female friendships. Whilst I can imagine most 20 something year old women to be able to relate to this book in some way, shape or form (we all had our cherished MSN days) I can guarantee it will have you almost crying with laughter, and at times sadness, and will make you cringe on behalf of the author herself. Alderton truly opens up about all aspects of her life growing up – from going to boarding school, being obsessed with MSN and the complexity of the male population, to making friends with old men in pubs and her best friend getting engaged at 25.
Everything I Know About Love is about feeling inadequate, not good enough. It's about disastrous dates, bad parties, breakups and having the best and worst times of your life. It's about finding out who you are and coming to realise that you are good enough. It's about losing, loving and accepting. And, bonus, it has some amazing recipes (Hangover Mac and Cheese I'm coming for you) and hilarious email renditions that, quite frankly, make me dread and be excited about growing older all in one.
I fear that after this book I will not be able to read another book in the next couple of weeks. It was truly amazing – I couldn't put this book down and I never wanted it to end. I am lending this book to everyone I know, messaging everyone (slight exaggeration) about how it MUST be a book they read this year. It will have a permanent
place on my bookshelf (who am I kidding) in my drawer for whenever I need to refer back to it. It is my new handbook on life. The only bad thing about this book was that it made me feel as though my life was rather boring but I have another 9 years left of my twenties and I'm sure I'll pick some memories along the way. But if this book taught me something; I will never, ever have a Rod Stewart party.
Enjoy every second of it because the book will be finished before you know it. It is also half price in Waterstones right now. You're welcome.

The enemy wants you to quit. he wants you to give up, curse God and die (a spiritual death) where you end up just like him, condemned and separated from God – because he wants you to forfeit your harvest! Don't let him shake your faith in our Lord and Savior! God is NOT a man that He can or should lie! Whatever He has spoken to you will indeed come to pass, the enemy is putting in overtime to turn you away because a transition is coming and those who have been faithful in spite of it all – will be the heads and not the tails. Pray all the more. Read His Word all the more. Worship and praise all the more. EVEN when you don't feel it – ESPECIALLY when you don't feel it.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
2 Corinthians 6:3-10 …but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger; by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love; by truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left; through honor and dishonor, through slander and praise. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true; as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as punished, and yet not killed; as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.

On December 28, just days before the end of the 50th year of diplomatic relations between Japan and South Korea, Seoul and Tokyo agreed to resolve their long-standing dispute over the issue of South Korean "comfort women" forced to serve as sex slaves by the Japanese military during World War II. Japan agreed to provide one billion yen (around $8.3 million) to a foundation that the South Korean government will establish to assist the former comfort women, reiterated its remorse, and apologized anew on behalf of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe—a change from previous statements, many of which merely referred to earlier apologies without issuing new ones. In return, South Korea agreed to accept the deal as final, to refrain from criticizing Tokyo on the matter in international forums, and to work to "solve the issue" of a controversial statue of a comfort woman located directly in front of the Japanese embassy in Seoul.
The Japanese and South Korean foreign ministers heralded the agreement as an important step in repairing strained bilateral ties. The landmark agreement has also been praised abroad (the U.S. State Department, for example, expressed hope that it would "help to improve relations between two of the United States' most important allies"). But not all are happy with the deal: some of the Japanese conservatives on whom Abe relies for political support have claimed that there is no need to further compensate the comfort women, given the financial assistance Japan provided South Korea on the restoration of diplomatic relations in 1965 and the additional money provided to the victims through a Japanese fund in the 1990s.
The deal will provide a modest boost to a bilateral relationship on which the region's economic future and the United States' security interests increasingly depend.
The South Korean media, meanwhile, has criticized the deal for not going far enough: the Korea Times labeled the agreement a "deal that shouldn't be" and claimed that Seoul was taking "half measures on ex-sex slaves"; other

You most likely know that multiple cultures have differing versions of a Christmas figure like Santa Claus, but have you heard that most regions have their own traditions surrounding how to get rid of baby teeth? Here are a few of the ones we learned about and thought you may like. If you enjoy them, you might even consider trying one or two in your own home!
Some children in India discard their baby teeth by offering them to the sun, from time to time wrapping the teeth in a rag. In one part of India, children throw their lost chompers onto their roofs and ask mice to replace it for one of their teeth. (Rodent fangs progress forever, and adult human teeth will be healthy for a long time if properly cared for.) Tossing lost pearly whites into the sky or to the sun and asking for a better tooth is prevalent in Egypt, Iraq, Jordan and Sudan. And long ago, in premodern Britain, lost chompers were burned! We don't recommend incorporating that into your traditions.
Patients living in Springfield, Ohio, and the nearby communities can phone 937-322-5437 to set up checkups with the Smile Wright Dental staff and Dr. Amber N. Wright. We'll be happy to treat you and your little one.

Monday morning we arrived in Quito, Ecuador. The city seemed to be dead, no sounds, or people in sight, but then again it was 1 AM in the morning. When we awoke, we were able to see that our assumption of a ghostly city was just that. Though it was only about 8 AM in the morning, the people of the city were lively, and everything around us was colorful.
First Impressions - Visiting Our Partner Schools: Caprapro and San Patricio
Over the past two days, Rodrigo, Erika, Anne and I made our ways down the steep hills and through the narrow, busy streets of Bariloche to visit two of our Patagonian partner schools.
We were warmly welcomed on the first morning by administrators and teachers from all three partner schools, showered with greetings, kisses on cheeks, and feasted with pastries and sandwiches. We shared our ideas and dreams, constraints and concerns, in building a shared program. How many students could visit at a time? How much Spanish should Dublin students have had before coming? Could we design exchanges around themes like environmental studies or history? What role should an accompanying teacher play? What courses are most important at Dublin for Argentinian students? Could we also exchange teachers, and if so, for how long? These questions and more launched us into classroom visits.
"Why are you going to Argentina?"
That was the question many faculty members were asking us as we frantically worked to finish up comments, grades, faculty contracts, magazines, and mailings before Rodrigo Villaamil, Sarah Doenmez, Anne Mackey, and I boarded a plane to Argentina. We were going to Bariloche Argentina as part of the EE Ford Spanish program to continue building our partnership between Dublin School and three private schools there - Instituto Primo Capraro, Colegio San Patricio, and Woodville in Bono Vince. Twenty-four hours after leaving campus, we found ourselves in morning rush hour traffic in Buenos Aires and two hours after that we were sitting at Cafe Clara in Palermo Soho, Buenos Aires. Sleepy but excited, our ideas and questions surrounding Dublin's Spanish program flowed freely, and the possibilities these partnerships might offer became more obvious. We knew why we were there.
Six Argentinian Students Visit Dublin for Three Weeks
As a part of our expanding Spanish program, Dublin has been working with three schools located in the City of Bariloche, Argentina to create cross-cultural opportunities for our students. We have partnered with three private schools in Bariloche: the Woodville School, Colegio San Patricio, and Instituto Primo Capraro. All three schools have previously created cross-cultural exchanges in Aspen, Colorado and we have modeled our work on this prior experience.
In February, six students (two from each school) and a teacher spent three weeks as part of the Dublin community. They lived life as Dublin students, going to Morning Meeting, attending a full class schedule and participating in sports and evening activities. They brought a lot of life and energy to the Dublin campus and developed lasting friendships throughout the community.

Changing Lives with $100
After seeing firsthand the difference the equivalent of $100 makes to women living in the small communities outside of Oaxaca, I will never look at (or thoughtlessly spend) money the same way again.
My friend Lupita is 43, widowed and raising three teenaged boys on her own in the small community of Teotitlán del Valle. She has been weaving tapetes since she was 12, and her boys also weave when they are not at school, as is the tradition in this village. Read more

Mick O'Keeffe believes The Late Late Show missed a great opportunity to dig deeper into the real Paul McGrath.
At one stage during Ireland's most watched chat show on Friday evening, Ryan Tubridy asked Paul McGrath whether he played any matches while under the influence of alcohol. The obvious answer was delivered and even better, didn't our Paul win a number of Man of the Match awards while, as a Fine Gael man famously said of Brian Cowen, being half way between hungover and drunk.
The crowd gave a chuckle and applause and Tubridy nodded in approval.
This moment neatly summed up a wasted opportunity for a decent insightful interview.
I am a fan of Ryan Tubridy. In fact, I personally think he is one of the most talented presenters RTE has ever produced. However, Ryan isn't at home with sporting legends and certainly some of his researchers may need a little kick in the hole for the notes they supplied him with, all lifted from Vincent Hogan's excellent yet overly dark account of McGrath's life.
Why oh why must every time McGrath puts his head up must we focus solely on the now tired topic of his drinking and depression? Sure, this is very much central to who Paul is, but there is sooooo much more.
I love Paul McGrath (love may be a strong word).
He is one of our greatest ever Irish sportspersons and a truly fascinating character. I saw him play for Saint Pats when he was the Black Pearl of Inchicore (coined by the Indo's Karl McGinty and not a nickname one would imagine getting past the sports desk and editors in these politically days).
I remember my Dad and I travelling to Phibsboro and watch him make his Ireland debut in 1985 against Italy when 45,000 people crushed into Dalymount to see the then World Champions against a super but underachieving Irish team.
I watched him play for United and Villa and most importantly perform Spartan soldieresque heroics against the major soccer nations of the world on the biggest stages. I loved McGrath but I hated the fascination the media and public had with his drinking which was almost glorified the same way Alex Higgins was.
The Late Late Show missed a golden opportunity to talk to the new Paul McGrath and get his thoughts on a wide range of issues. I screamed at the telly as question after question came in about drink and depression.
McGrath is a super intelligent if extremely shy and brittle character. Football was his crutch and football made him money and got him women and made him somebody. Drink did more or less the same things.
I realise that this was not Off the Ball and is a national chat show but why didn't Tubs delve deeper into McGrath's thoughts on racism in football and the recent Suarez and Ferdinand cases? What was Paul's view as a black footballer?
What did Paul really make of Gary Speed and did he welcome the now open discussions about depression?
What was it like for McGrath living in the Borough of Dun Laoghaire, an area with a rich soccer tradition with St Josephs Boys, Pearse Rovers, TEK and Dalkey United? Did he ever want to play GAA? Did he have regrets that he never made full use of his enormous physical prowess and god given talent? What did a man with his deep intelligence think of the post Celtic Tiger Ireland of today compared to the grim Ireland of the mid 80s when he left? What about the crazy money in football? And so on and so on?
Never mind the great games he played and great players he marked? What was it like to win Man of the Match in the 85 Cup Final after his mate Kevin Moran famously saw red? What does he think of Fergie lasting all that time? Did he regret not winning titles with United in the early 90s?? Did he seriously consider going toItaly to play with Napoli? Is he bored now? How will Ireland do in Euro 2012? Is Trap too negative??
Did we get an insight into any of this? No, we were given the same old guff about drinking and getting thrown out of United and depression…all lifted from Hogan's book…an award winning book but one that gave far too little time to on field exploits.
Look, I don't want to hammer the Late Late as it's a tough job and the Show must treat the audience like they know feck all but the Show would be far better off having at least one decent in depth Parkinson style interview. Surprise us with interesting questions….
We got a little glimpse of McGrath the man at the end as he became more comfortable with Ryan but will we ever really know what this fascinating man really thinks?
Opportunity lost I am afraid.

I felt so ignorant after reading this book. Jumbo was and still is the most famous elephant in the world, and I knew next to nothing about him before reading this book. The book was very well researched and sadly ends not long after Jumbo's demise. I'd like to have seen one more chapter to reflect on Jumbo's effect on elephants of today.

This movie had most of the elements of the book (except for the dog), only re-arranged. I liked the ending better. That said, I'm not much of a Truffaut fan. I gave it 3 stars.

Have you heard? Millennials are obsessed with plants. In the last couple of years many publications, including this one, have analyzed the generation's sudden interest in greenery. If you can't afford a home, buy a philodendron. If you aren't planning to get married anytime soon, that's O.K. — buy a cactus. Can't afford to have kids? A ficus tree will do for now.
In 2017, 30 percent of gardening households were made up of 18- to 34-year-olds, and they spent more per household than other demographics, according to a study by GardenResearch.com, a division of the National Gardening Association. Like other millennial interests, plant culture has inspired an active online community. So-called plantfluencers post photos of their greenery and exchange plant care tips on Instagram. Summer Rayne Oakes, for instance, is best known for housing 700 plants in her 1, 200-square-foot apartment in Brooklyn, and Justina Blakeney, the founder of the lifestyle brand Jungalow, has more than one million followers on the platform.
Hilton Carter, whose book, "Wild at Home: How to Style and Care for Beautiful Plants," will be published by Ryland Peters & Small/CICO Books on April 9, didn't set out to be an influencer. He began collecting plants in 2014 while living in New Orleans because he just needed "something to block the view from the street into the apartment." He bought a fiddle-leaf fig tree (the "perfect plant" for design) and christened it "Frank." Five years later, Carter, who calls himself a "plant stylist," owns about 200 plants, shares tips with his 174,000 Instagram followers and hosts a plant care series on Apartment Therapy. His book was borne out of a desire to organize and expand on the information he "preached about" on Instagram.
Curious about best practices for plant novices, I talked with Carter about some Instagram plant trends, the pitfalls to avoid and how beginners can incorporate plants into their spaces.
It's All About the Layers
"What's awesome here is that he's mixed up different types of the same species, which keeps a place from being cluttered. There has to be a well thought out composition to how you place your plants. You're creating a corner of greenery, not a splatter all over the place."
Form Follows Function — Sometimes
"What I find interesting about this is that it's almost like an overgrown space, where the plants have taken over. I don't know how functional it is to get near the books. Some people right now just use books as décor anyway so maybe this doesn't really matter. It all depends on what you're looking for."
Know Your Plant's Angles
"I think the windowsill here is perfect. If you're trying to push plants into a space, you first have to understand what type of light you have. A north facing, south facing, west or east facing window will dictate the types of plants that will survive in a particular space, like an alocasia (north) or a cactus (west). The space has to work for the individual plant."
Go Higher for the Jungle Effect
"Hanging plants is the best way to create an indoor jungle. Vine style plants like the pothos will allow for those vines to either cascade down or for you to train them along the side of a window frame or a bookshelf. It's also a great way to keep your pets, who might eat or destroy your plant, away from them."
Keep It Simple
"This amount of greenery to me is perfect. It's not overly done. It's not like a jungle vibe. This is a normal person's bathroom. Who has style. Who has decided I want to style my space with greenery and additional things. There's a moment for that throughout your home."

It isn't just the inside of the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art that is bursting with artworks. The front lawn's collection of outdoor artworks is growing. On June 21, the first day of summer, a new sculpture — the 25-foot-tall "Monolith (Optic)" — was added. During the week of July 4, a second sculpture — titled "30" — was installed.
Tom Loughman, CEO of the Atheneum, likes the variety of works and of styles.
"We'll have a traditional bronze statue next to a colorful abstract sculpture, next to a major work of conceptual art, next to a work by an artist interested in the confluence of the aesthetic and scientific," Loughman says.
And that's not counting Alexander Calder's "Stegosaurus" in Burr Mall next door and Carl Andre's meditative "Stone Field Sculpture" across the street. Neither is owned by the Atheneum, but Loughman says the museum keeps a protective neighborly eye on both.
Hank Martin, Wadsworth's board chairman, says outdoor works have a practical use, as well.
"You've heard the adage that the Atheneum looks like a castle and people don't know what goes on in there," he says. "If we put a few sculptures out here, people will know what goes on in there, that it's a museum."
An exhibit inside the Atheneum, up until Sept. 9, tells the histories of the outdoor artworks. In the meantime, here's a mini lesson until you can get there to see for yourself.
Monolith (Optic) And 30
The new 20-feet-tall "Monolith (Optic)" is a smaller-scale version of a 160-feet-tall piece Conrad Shawcross created in London, which was used to hide an unsightly factory smokestack. "Monolith," which seems opaque or transparent depending on the time of the day, is meant to evoke "a sense of wind blowing through it, the dappled light of the sun, like sitting under a tree in serenity," Shawcross says. The work is on loan to the Atheneum from a private collection for three years.
"Monolith" also is meant to lure visitors inside to see the new Shawcross MATRIX exhibit, which is dominated by the fascinating "Slow Arc X." That piece is made up of a two-layer cage with two lights inside that spin in patterns. In the darkened gallery, the shadows of the cage's mesh walls shift, grow, shrink and flow over the walls, ceiling and floor, like rippling water.
Shawcross says "Slow Arc X" was inspired by the "Plato's Cave" allegory. "If you could only see the walls, could you work out the shape from what you see?" Shawcross says. "Imagine trying to work out the structure of a tree by only seeing its shadow. You never can, with all the bark and twigs and all the life it supports and the insects that sit upon it."
Other artworks in the show are attempts to visualize harmonic sounds – "A Picture of a Chord Falling Into Silence" – and to create "irrational spirals" using stacks of tetrahedrons.
The second newest outdoor artwork is Sean Scully's 30-layered aluminum sculpture, which is part of his "Stack" series. Titled "30," it is about eight feet wide, 8 feet deep and 20 feet tall and painted with automotive paint. It sits beside "Amaryllis" and Nathan Hale. The work is an artistic musing on the layers of the world and how they appear to the human eye along the horizontal landline. The sculpture is considered a sneak peek of an exhibit titled "Sean Scully: Landline," which will come to the museum in February. The sculpture will be on display through May 19, 2019.
Nathan Hale
Enoch Woods' statue honoring Nathan Hale started out as an also-ran, Loughman says. It was the runner-up in an 1874 competition for a statue that would grace the State Capitol building. The Atheneum took the bronze work under its wing in 1889. Since the 1920s, Hale has stood sentry as visitors entered the museum.
The piece honoring the Coventry native, who was executed as a spy by the British at age 21 during the American Revolution, stands near the museum's castle-like main entrance. Hale's hand rests on his heart, presumably saying his famous quote "I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country."
Tony Smith had a one-man indoor-outdoor show at the Atheneum in 1966, with 13 oversized sculptures in the general vicinity of the museum. In 1967, the museum bought his large geometric "Amaryllis." It has been in three different places outside the museum, with one nine-year absence.
Not all of the outdoor placements have been advantageous. For a while, "Amaryllis" was on the sidewalk in front of the Atheneum, next to a curved, ramp-like Lila Katzen sculpture. Skateboarders became fond of rocketing off the Katzen and caroming off the Smith, and a skater once smashed a window. Now the Smith sits serenely and uncaromed on the lawn, where skateboarding is a nonstarter.
The indoor exhibit features a history and a charming photo of Smith's daughters constructing the little cardboard maquette of "Amaryllis," designed as a stack of black tetrahedrons.
Stegosaurus, 50-feet tall and bright red, is impossible to hide. But the massive Alexander Calder sculpture in Burr Mall, between the Atheneum and City Hall, sits behind temporary chain-link fencing as workers install a fountain to flow under the sculpture.
The Ella Burr McManus Trust, set up to honor McManus' father Alfred E. Burr, a 19th century publisher of the now-defunct Hartford Times, originally intended to develop the Burr Mall into a resting place for horses. But when horses gave way to cars, that goal was no longer useful so the Trust funded the creation of the sculpture. Calder's abstracted dinosaur was installed in 1973 to much fanfare.
When UConn Hartford opened last year, Stegosaurus was there to greet the new students across the street. So was a reproduction of a self-portrait by Daniel Wadsworth's friend Thomas Sully, which can be seen peeking out of a window on the Prospect Street side of the Morgan Wing of the museum.
Stone Field
Carl Andre's Stone Field Sculpture is a collection of 36 large stones from a Bristol quarry, arranged artistically in a triangular pattern on the lawn next to Center Church, The configuration is designed to mimic the vibe of the headstones in the adjacent Ancient Burying Ground. It was built in 1977, financed by the city of Hartford, which used $100,000 in grants from Hartford Foundation for Public Giving and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Then-Mayor George Athanson, no fan of minimalist art, expressed scorn at the time.
"It's just a bunch of rocks. Little kids could do that," he said. Since then, the peaceful work has become what Andre intended: a place to think, eat lunch, or just get out of the office during the noon hour and sit in the sun.
Every now and then someone vandalizes one or more of the rocks with a splash of paint. Once in 2015, it was mistakenly defaced by workers putting in utility lines. When such things happen, Loughman says, the museum acts as a "good Samaritan caretaker" and cleans up the piece.

As a writer I always thought I'd need to move to New York to be taken seriously, but I've been able to develop my career in my beloved California since 1989. I've written more than 25 books, all set on the West Coast, and I've watched the literary scene grow richer every year.
In August, Kevin Staniec, executive director of 1888 Center, a literary arts and cultural heritage nonprofit in the city of Orange, invited me to be interviewed for the first "Eichler Session" podcast at a midcentury modern home in the Fairhaven tract in Orange. As I arrived at the tangerine-colored door of the low structure, I was immediately charmed by the indoor/outdoor style of the house, with its open floor plan and floor-to-ceiling windows. I wanted to dine in the garden and sleep on the patio. The rectangular blue swimming pool in the backyard would make a perfect bathtub on a warm night.
The 1888 group, dedicated to the preservation, presentation and promotion of cultural heritage and literary arts in Old Towne Orange, publishes elegant, eclectic, beautifully designed novellas by diverse authors, both emerging and accomplished, as well as an annual short story collection called "The Cost of Paper." Kevin, the most unpretentious hipster you'll ever meet, told me, "We believe everyone has a story to tell, and if we can, we would love to inspire everyone to consider writing and reading and feeling more comfortable in this sometimes intimidating medium." When I asked him how location influenced what he does, he replied, "I think the beach, the weather and the idea of community has contributed to this atmosphere of inclusion."
That hit me as a deep truth as I reflected on the meaning of it for my own work. So many of my stories rock and roll with the rhythms of the Pacific, surf its waves and play on its beaches. The warm Santa Anas toss palm fronds and shake blossoms through my books. And the eclectic, open-minded vibe of the West Coast is expressed through my characters, who drive long highways to escape their lonely lives and find a place where movies and music, new friends and families are somehow, magically, made. Perhaps this is why many of us come to Southern California, or, as in my case, why we stay.
At the "Eichler" event, Jon-Barrett Ingels, the sweetest LA "actor slash author" you'll ever meet, interviewed me in the glass living room overlooking the pool, surrounded by the intimate audience. We talked about my first novel, "Weetzie Bat," a punk fairy tale featuring a bleached-blond pixie and her gay best friend searching for love in 1980s Los Angeles. Jon-Barrett also asked me about the changing face of publishing and how to get published in a constantly shifting industry. When I got started, you didn't necessarily need an agent and could even send unsolicited manuscripts directly to publishers. My first book sort of flew into the hands of my editor on gossamer wings. Now there are many gatekeepers, and it seems like some of them have been taking steroids. But the independent publishing movement is growing stronger as a result, and Orange County is a hotbed of activity for writers and artists who are doing their own thing and forging their own possibilities outside of the conventional wisdom. This entrepreneurial spirit seems to be a tradition here, a cultural value that creates the character of this particular point of geography.
After the interview we all sipped drinks and took pictures on the lawn. I met Anne Saller, the petite, pink-clad owner of Book Carnival, who seemed like she'd walked out of one of my own books. I got to know the 1888 board and staff, including Kevin's lovely wife, Janet Kim, and I was reunited with old friends from my 1980s retail days working at Grau, a Gaudi-esque women's clothing store on Melrose that sold garments made from antique silk kimonos.
It's hard to imagine anything like this 1888 event happening anywhere else in the world – especially not in New York, the corporate center of publishing. After all, even the iconic character of Don Draper left "Mad Men" New York for California, and, as the series concluded, was inspired to create one of the seminal commercials in the history of advertising there. It's interesting to me that the series' creators chose an Eichler-style midcentury modern home in Palm Springs as the set of one of Don's visits to the West Coast. (Of course the usual Don shenanigans in the pool and the glass-walled bedroom ensued, but that's another story.) The setting itself spoke of possibility and light, a clear break from the concrete darkness of his New York.
My father, the artist and screenwriter Irving Alexander Block, moved to California from New York in the 1940s because he felt stifled by the atmosphere of the East Coast. He wanted a fresh, new horizon where he could create art unfettered by the weight of history and tradition, or by the latest trends. His small, still-life paintings with their transcendent ambiance and otherworldly palettes were as classical as the work of the old masters, but imbued with a surreal spatial sense and a distinctly Californian light. He was able to work on whatever he wanted without pressure or demands, and somehow this paid off: His paintings now hang in the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C., and in celebrity collections.
I guess I'm following in his footsteps. As I wandered out into the lawn in the warm, starry evening to chat about books, small-press publishing, the history of Orange and the backyard antics of squirrels, I felt perfectly at home. Who needs a publishing industry that lives inside a city skyscraper? Who needs walls that don't let in the light? I'll take an atrium and a swimming pool in Orange any day.

As an artist, naturally I love art. I think tattooing is one of the coolest forms of art. I value my tattoos as they will be on my body forever, and the artists who create this art. None of my tattoos have been or ever will be a moments notice decision and I will pay good money for quality work. My tattoos are wonderfully important to me and they mean something to me. This is how I choose to express them.
I currently have two tattoos. I love them and I can say with 100% certainty that I will not regret them. The first one I got is the Jesus Fish on my left wrist and the second one is the word 'Smile' on my right index finger (pictured above). My cousin passed away when I was 17 and the tattoo is in memory of him. The last movie I saw with him in theaters was Finding Nemo. I will always remember to "just keep swimming" when I see it. My finger tattoo was my graduation present to myself. I graduated from Towson University with a B.S. in Art + Design, with a concentration in Photography. My life will consist of photography being my career, my creative outlet and my passion.
Do you have any tattoos? I'd love to hear about them in the comments below!

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres struck a warning tone in his report on the implementation of Security Council Resolution 1701, as the body met for a closed session Tuesday night to discuss developments.The secretary-general noted a number of occasions over the past three months that had increased tensions, including an incident on Christmas Day when UNIFIL had to interpose between armed personnel of the Lebanese and Israeli armies, who pointed weapons at each other during a standoff on the border at Aita Shaab.Between Nov. 1 and Feb. 19, UNIFIL recorded continued "almost daily" violations of Lebanese airspace by Israel.The report noted continued cooperation between UNIFIL and the Lebanese Army, with 17 percent of the former's patrols being conducted alongside units from the Lebanese Army. The Army expanded its presence along the Blue Line by participating with UNIFIL in more than 1,205 foot and vehicular patrols.

Twenty years ago, CART's bid to curb speeds led to a deeply divisive aerodynamic 'fix' - the Handford device - a creation that some still suggest could be reintroduced to current IndyCar racing
Enough was enough, and the breaking point was 240.942mph. That was the speed at which Mauricio Gugelmin lapped the Fontana superspeedway to take pole position for the 1997 CART season finale and claim a new record for fastest lap in motorsport history. To get that average speed, the PacWest Reynard-Mercedes driver had hit 250mph on the straights and 230mph in the corners.
For context, it was well above the previous record qualifying lap, 236.986mph set by Arie Luyendyk in the 1996 Indianapolis 500, and comfortably ahead of Gugelmin's nearest rival on the day, Jimmy Vasser, who qualified at 239.222mph. Considering that this year's Indy 500 pole was completed at 229.125mph, and Penske's Helio Castroneves reckons the upgraded 2.4-litre engines set to be introduced from 2021 will lead to laps in the region of 235mph, Gugelmin's was a staggering figure.

Tanvi Gadhia '09, Geography and Environmental Systems, is UMBC's first Environmental Sustainability Coordinator. Caroline Bodnar is a Career Specialist in UMBC's Career Services Center.
A year ago, UMBC's Professional Staff Senate saw an opportunity to build community and empower and support new staff members. The organization launched a mentoring program through which more seasoned staff members share their knowledge, resources, experience, values and skills with other staff members, who typically work in different departments and divisions from their mentors. We are beneficiaries of the program: relatively new staff members who have been mentored by our colleagues, and are using the experience as a springboard to campus involvement and contributions to our UMBC community.
Tanvi reflects:
Joining the mentoring program has been an even more rewarding experience than I could have imagined. It's a useful change of pace to reflect with colleagues about not just our work but our professional lives.
In the book discussions led by my mentor, Beth Wells, we've turned our attention to our own work styles and how we can optimize everything from time management and communication to decision making and networking. It has been helpful to learn about how others before me have been able to foster transformative change. Beth herself has done just that. From directing a university's Women's Center in the 70's and 80's, at the time when women first began entering the work force in large numbers, to planning statewide HIV prevention programs in the 80's as the epidemic grew, Beth has played a pivotal role in achieving progress in challenging times. I have found parallels between the social movements of past decades and the ecological and climate movements of which I consider my work to be a part.
I believe that sustainability offers us a path to overcome both pollution and injustice to build a thriving society. As the university's sustainability coordinator, I sometimes find myself overwhelmed at the abstraction and ambition of that goal. But Beth's advice has helped me develop my strengths and maintain my focus and confidence. I am grateful and delighted that the Professional Staff Senate created this opportunity and matched me with Beth.
Caroline reflects:
This is my second year in the Professional Staff Senate mentoring program, because I joined the pilot program last year. I joined as a second year staff member, with the goal of networking with others outside my office and learning more about the unique UMBC culture. I also hoped that by learning more about the work of departments outside my own, I would recognize opportunities for collaboration between them and the Career Center, where I work as a career specialist.
I have had two great mentors with two very different styles. In my first year, I was paired with Lee Calizo, Director of Student Life. We would met together for lunch and discuss our professional goals. Lee was instrumental in connecting me with other staff across campus, especially other female leaders. My meeting those individuals led to new campus partnerships for the career center and new friendships for me.
This year, I was matched with Beth Wells, Assistant Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, who is also mentoring Tanvi. We have been having book discussions based on a text supplied by the Professional Staff Senate. Members of our small group read on our own time and then come together to discuss the main points and how we can incorporate what we are reading into our work lives. Beth has also helped me stay on track with my own professional goals such as taking a graduate course to complete credits needed to gain licensure as a professional counselor.
I encourage any new professional staff member at UMBC to apply to participate in the mentoring program for 2014-2015 (the application will be available and advertised soon), because you are sure to learn a lot about UMBC, gain a lot of wise advice from some wonderful people, and have fun in the process.

Daydream Surfshop
Nestled in Newport Beach, Daydream Surfshop is a beautiful space that features vintage finds, surf gear, coffee and goodies from local and emerging brands. Daydream is inviting and warm with plenty to peruse and multiple spaces to hang out and relax for a while. The space also features a coffee shop for an early morning coffee pre-surf or an afternoon pick-me-up.
Daydream Surfshop was developed by Rebecca Mantei and Kyle Kennelly, California natives who's personal style is extremely prevalent in the space. Their combined desire was to create a space focused on design, quality and functionality -- all built on the backbone of a relaxed, surfer's paradise.
Daydream Surfshop is located in an industrial park -- which one might be surprised to learn upon arrival. But the location allows for an expansive space (one that is perfect for storing surfboards and stacks of vintage Levis). The climate of Newport Beach and Costa Mesa, with its changing landscape, calls for unique ventures and creative uses of space like Daydream Surfshop.
When entering the space, visitors are welcomed with the scent of freshly brewed coffee and shots of espresso. "Daydream's coffee shop offers unique coffees that aren't found anywhere nearby in a effort to give people the jump start they need to a productive, feel-good day that hopefully leads them to the ocean at some point." After picking up coffee or latte, be sure to peruse Daydream's selection of books and magazines. They offer the perfect eclectic mix of surfer mags and art anthologies (and of course, a peacock chair to sit in while you flip through them all).
The retail space at Daydream Surfshop is beautifully curated and merchandised. Rebecca and Kyle stock brands like Norden Goods, Jungmaven, Solid and Striped, Baggu, Mollusk, Juniper Ridge and Aloha Beach Club. The shop features everyday goods, like candles and bags to perfect casual tees and linen tops. The pieces stocked are thoughtfully chosen and speak to a desire to elevate the consumer's experience. "Daydream seeks to move us towards objects with soul that are built with love and ethical business philosophies. Inside you'll find a diverse mix of hand shaped surfboards, beautiful crafts [and] both new and vintage clothing..." The walls are lined with beautiful surfboards, many of which are part of Daydream's 'Surf Club,' a surfboard sharing program that breaks down the price tag barrier that passionate surfers often face when looking to experiment. This program speaks to the greater concept behind Daydream Surfshop -- a space built to bring a community together through shared passions, interests and support.

Mike Ballard
Signage is a recurring theme within the work of Mike Ballard. In his paintings and sculptures, Ballard aims to bring our attention to the visual noise that influences a fundamental experience of the everyday urban environment. His works riff on the territorial gestures that form the boundaries between public and private property. Ballard's approach to the metropolis as a 'ready-made', allows for a transformation of the quotidian. Here Ballard shows sculptures made from recycled hoardings, structures that physically mark a division between public and private space, and paintings based on the texture produced by graffiti and the remains of stickers found on municipal signage, suggestive of a kind of illegible urban language.

At the core of my artistic practice lies the question of what kind of painting (figurative or abstract) employing the materials and concepts of classical and especially classically modernist painting is still possible in the twenty-first century. By 'possible' I mean relevant by virtue of either formal or thematic innovation or inventiveness.

Olivia Bax is interested in the balance between planning and spontaneous making, between mass and detail. Her work considers how we view sculpture in relation to our wider built environment. All the pieces in Surface Matters start with a steel armature. There is no preconceived plan; the steel is a freehand drawing in space. But it also has a function. Like a traditional armature, it is the core and the framework on which to build. The steel armatures are covered with chicken wire, papier-mâché and paper pulp. An area of the armature (usually the most detailed section) is deliberately exposed.

Pennacchio Bill to Hold Utilities Accountable for Power Outages Passes Senate Committee
Please Share:
Bill First Introduced Before Sandy to Improve Utility Reliability, Storm Preparedness & Accountability Advances With Bipartisan Support
The Senate Economic Growth Committee has passed legislation sponsored by Senator Joe Pennacchio to hold utility companies accountable for their failure to provide reliable service.
"Right now, a negligent utility only pays $100 a day in fines," Senator Pennacchio (R-26) explained. "That penalty is not only completely ineffective, it is an insult to the thousands of families who have suffered for days, or even weeks without power. How much money have they lost because of these outages? Probably a lot more than $100 a day. We must hold these companies accountable for getting the lights back on as quickly as possible."
Pennacchio's legislation was first introduced on October 1, 2012, nearly a month before Superstorm Sandy, in response to extended power outages following Hurricane Irene and an October snowstorm in 2011.
During the April 5 Senate Economic Growth Committee hearing, Senator Pennacchio's bill, S-889, was merged with two similar bills that were also up for consideration: S-2221, which is sponsored by Senator Shirley Turner (D-15); and S-719, which is sponsored by Senators Linda Greenstein (D-14) and Nilsa Cruz-Perez (D-5.) The final legislation was passed out of the committee with bipartisan support.
The now bipartisan legislation would require the Board of Public Utilities to develop and enforce performance benchmarks for service reliability and communications for electric utilities. Additionally, the bill requires public utilities to file a service reliability plan and an emergency communications strategic plan for review and approval by the BPU.
Under the bill, if the BPU finds a utility has failed to meet standards in its service reliability or communications plan, or finds the utility's performance to be less than effective, the bill allows for the imposition of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day for each violation, up to $2 million for any series of related events.
The legislation would also bar utilities from passing on the cost of these penalties on to ratepayers, in order to ensure that power companies are held fully accountable for lack of action in the wake of a storm.
"Although I've advocated for these changes since the days of Hurricane Irene and 'Snowtober' back in 2011, the recent nor'easters in our area really emphasized the critical need for us to take action," Senator Pennachio added. "I'm grateful to see this bill now has bipartisan support. Although utilities generally have been responsive during emergencies, we can't expect major improvements to occur unless we take action. I am confident that our legislation will incentivize power companies to put together a plan for maintaining the lines, and finally prevent these outages from occurring in the first place."

Shopping For A Ceramic Hair Straightener

Many hair irons tout all sorts of additional features such as titanium and tourmaline and these features really only add to the confusion on what to look for in a quality iron. For the most part getting your hair straightener from a salon supply store will get you a professional hair iron that will work better than anything that you can get at any drugstore.

You Ask – How Can I Make Hair Grow?
May 11, 2008 by admin · Leave a Comment
Personally, my hair has never grown! No, I 'm serious, after I got gum stuck in it when I was 8 and mom had to put the ol' bowl around my head and cut it like no other little boy I ever saw, it just never grew back. Well, I guess it did somewhat. I will see friends then not see them for a year and they will say " Hey you always get your hair cut the same length," uh, NO, it just doesn't grow! I have tried all sorts of things, never did try that one, you know, the ad with the girl in black and white with really long hair. The ad promises you can grow your hair within 7 days. If I can't grow my hair within a year then I doubt there is a magic formula that's gonna do it in 7 days! I hope I wasn't wrong.
Some girls, like Giselle here, have naturally wavy, thick, beautiful hair. Not only would I love to have her hair but I think I could deal with a bit of her looks too! I found a couple sites that "say" they will help grow your hair, make it thicker and so on. If anyone tries these products I would love it if you could let me know if they actually work. Here's one grow-long-hair-fast.com and another fasterhairgrowth.com. There products are different from one another but say they will do the same thing.
The best product that actually worked for me were vitamins. Vegetal Silica, Horsetail Root. These vitamins proved to actually make a noticeable difference in the growth of my hair. Oh, plus one other thing, pregnancy!!! Wow did my hair ever grow then, like weeds.
I also recommend taking a look at our past post on Healthy Hair Care. This post is full of great advice on maintaining healthy hair, which can also help lead to better hair growth.
