Longggg time no post!
I recently came back from my trip to Japan with friends and I am well settled into uni life again. (not really I'm so behind orz)
Anyway, so one of the things I really wanted were some 'everyday' wear lenses– because I only have lenses which are vibrant as heck for the sole purpose of cosplay ahah. Don't want to freak out people on the streets and get bad vibes – which is why I've chosen these two lenses as they have had some pretty good reviews on Honeycolor.com
Unfortunately I broke my kit lens for my NX210 in Korea so uhh… had no choice but to resort to using my phone camera. So I apologise for some crappy photos. These photos were kinda rushed because I came straight from my part time to try them! I'll try to take some photos again in the morning/afternoon to show what they look like in daylight.
So first up! Neo Glamour Brown lenses!
These are 14.2mm in diameter and are yearly disposable lenses.
Next is the Beaucon Shimmer in grey!
The diameter for these are 14mm.
Side by side comparison in their cases:
(grey on the top) – (brown on the bottom)
(This is me with the Grey Shimmer indoors! No flash, Indoors with lighting)
Glamour Brown:
Indoors with sunlight
Outdoors with sunlight

Graham Hospitalized
ASHEVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Doctors say the Rev. Billy Graham "continues to improve steadily" at a North Carolina hospital where he's being treated for bronchitis.
The 93-year-old Graham was admitted to Mission Hospital in Asheville overnight Saturday for treatment of the lung infection.
Hospital officials said Monday that he's in stable condition and has been taking meals and watching television.
They say, "No date has been set for discharge, but with his continued improvement physicians are hopeful he will be released soon."
Billy Graham was hospitalized for pneumonia last November. His staff says the evangelist's health has been good since then, although his sight, hearing and mobility are limited.
He's been working on an upcoming book at his home in Montreat, N.C.

Caso coke vs pepsi
Battered by competition from the sweeter Pepsi-Cola, Coca-Cola decided in 1985 to replace its old formula with a sweeter variation, dubbed the "New Coke". Coca-Cola spent $4 million on market research.
Blind taste tests showed that Coke drinkers preferred the new, sweet formula, but the launch of New Coke provoked a national uproar. Market researchers had measuredthe taste but had failed to measure the emotional attachment consumers had to Coca-Cola.
There were angry letters, formal protests and even lawsuit threats, to force the retention of "The Real Thing". Ten weeks later, the company withdrew New Coke and reintroduced its century-old formula as "Classical Coke", giving the old formula even stronger status in the marketplace.
1.Managers try to stimulate sales by modifying the four-Ps --- Analyze.
2. Customers are not always willing to accept an improved product --- Comment.
1985 - The Coca-Cola Company made what has been known as one of the biggest marketing blunder. They stumbled onto a new formula in efforts to produce diet Coke. They put forth 4 million dollars of research to come up with thenew formula.
The decision to change their formula and pull the old Coke off the market came about because taste tests showed a distinct preference for the new formula. The new formula was a sweeter variation with less tang, it was also slightly smoother. Robert Woodruff's death was a large contributor to the change because he stated that he would never change Coca-Cola's formula. Another factorthat influenced the change was that Coke's market share fell 2.5 percent in four years. Each percentage point lost or gain meant 200 million dollars. This was the first flavor change since the existence of the Coca-Cola company. The change was announced April 23, 1985 at the Vivian Beaumont Theater at the Lincoln Center. Some two hundred TV and newspaper reporters attended this very glitzyannouncement. It included a question and answer session, and a history of Coca-Cola. The debut was accompanied by an advertising campaign that revived the Coca-Cola theme song of the early 1970s, "I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke"
The change to the world's best selling soft drink was heard by 81 percent of the United States population within twenty-four hours of the announcement. Within a week of thechange, one thousand calls a day were flooding the company's eight hundred number. Most of the callers were shocked and/or outraged, many said that they were considering switching to Pepsi. Within six weeks, the eight hundred number was being jammed by six thousand calls a day. The company also fielded over forty thousand letters, which were all answered and each person got a coupon for the newCoke. Many American consumers of Coca-Cola asked if they would have the final say. When Pepsi heard that the Coca-Cola company was changing its secret formula they said that it was a decision that Pepsi tastes better. Roger Enrico, the president and CEO of Pepsi-Cola wrote a letter to every major newspaper in the U.S. to declare the victory.
Coca-Cola management had to decide: Do nothing or "buythe world a new Coke". They decided to develop the new formula.
1985 - July 10, eighty-seven days after the new Coke was introduced, the old Coke was brought back in addition to the new one. This was greatly due to dropping market share and consumer protest. The market share fell from a high of 15 percent to a low of 1.4 percent. This was said to be a classic marketing retreat. Coca-Colaexecutives admitted that they had goofed by taking the old Coke off the market. The Coca-Cola company's eight hundred number received eighteen thousand calls of gratitude. One caller said they felt like a lost friend had returned home. The comeback of old Coke drove stock prices to the highest level in twelve years. This was said to be the only way to regain the lead on the cola wars.

This is gorgeous!!!!!!!
I'm ordering now!!!!!!
Welcome to Rene our newest bamboo product
We are beyond excited for our new 'Rene' bamboo scarfs – They are soft and light and completely without the winter-fluffy feeling.
This magnificently soft scarf will surely become one of our spring wardrobe go-to's and favorites. They are now available in five stunning colors – five amazing basics; grey, light grey, nature, crème and a light mint. Crème and mint are new colors in the collection and we are so pleased with how well they match the material and look of the scarfs.
Rene goes with everything, and is a great way to mix textures, such as wool and cashmere with something less fluffy to give a more diverse and exciting look. Also Rene is big enough to work as a plaid as well – we are huge fans of large scarfs that are multi-functional.
We are crazy about bamboo – it looks so smooth and beautiful and feels incredibly soft, the material feels amazing and is ultra breathe-able which is perfect for the warm spring and summer days. Furthermore we embrace the fact that bamboo seem to be an inexhaustible resource as it the fastest growing woody plant in the world, with the capability to grow four feet a day. It grows organically in most of the world (although not all is certified organic) because it does not need any fertilization or irrigation in most locations.
We cannot wait to match the mint colored Rene with our favorite jeans and a summer tanned skin-tone. How would you like to wear and style the lovely Rene in bamboo?

Indiana University has a research center devoted to the study and development of virtual worlds; The Synthetic World's Initiative. Their purpose is to "promote innovative thinking on synthetic worlds ". They hold bi-annual conferences (the "Ludium") and are developing Arden, a virtual world based on the life and works of William Shakespeare. At the Ludium II Conference "Attendees were charged with hammering out a well-considered platform to guide virtual world policy." The result is:
A Declaration of Virtual World Policy
made by representatives of law, industry, and academia, assembled in full and free convention as the first Synthetic Worlds Congress.
Among the ten clauses in the declaration are calls for a player's bill of rights, universal age verification, net neutrality and the statement that "fair use may apply in virtual worlds". The declaration can be read here at TerraNova SWI's Declaration of Virtual World Policy:

So Dianne Portman's vision came into being! The Waltham Chase WI wowed Waltham Chase for Queen and country on her Diamond Jubilee Day! With bated breath over the weather and local conditions, Saturday 2nd June 2012 will be a date forever etched into Waltham Chase history. With a homage to the famous/infamous 'Party in the Park' staged by the Methodist Church in 2005 (using the same stage provided by Miracle Street), the Women's Institute pulled off a great day. We even had a Queen and local women pulling in a Tug of War which pulled in a crowd (my best shot of the day)!
The arranging of the day (stalls, entertainers, outside caterers, admin etc etc) was in the very capable hands of Dianne Portman, Margaret Jones, Bridget Jones, and Katie Shepherd. Also Gary and Tara Pothecary amongst many others worked to make it a right royal occasion. Mike was on the mike with his silky smooth DJ skills to keep it all going.
The day started with a morning event in the village hall where Sue Rogers arranged a display of photographs and memorabilia. The Waltham Chase History Group also contributed to this. Lorrie Smith brought information of the Parish Plan. In the afternoon Steve Bridge and Sean Beech with judicial assistance from wife Zine arranged the races and games on the Rec marking this UK Olympic year. Lynda Bezant, Brenda Cook, Nita Higgins and Sheila Fisher were in charge of the tea tent. The Methodist Church gave away 500 bottles of free chilled spring water and booklets associated with the Jubilee & Olympics. There was something for everyone with dancing (Amber Andrews / Zumba), display dogs (Scallywags), Charlie the Clown, The Locks Heath Silhouette Majorettes, Bouncy Castle, Paralympic Skittles, 'Beat the Goalie', as well as the races on the track. The band (Scary Biscuit) played in the evening as the rain began to fall, interspersed by a 'Has Chase Got Talent?' show, which were both arranged by Jill Kirby and hosted by Tizz.
Thanks to all who contributed and all who helped in any way, and to those who came to make it such a great British celebration. God Save The Queen!
Steven Bridge

The Company You KeepLeave a comment
November 20, 2009 by David Gillaspie
A pack of wolves. A herd of deer. Birds of a feather flocking together. They hang together just like people. People of a certain age, a certain economic level, a certain marital status. They stick together.
If you don't find people together then you find them straying into transition; a young guy getting older, wealthier, and growing in his marriage turns into divorced aging hipster scrounging cigarette butts with others in the same shape. We manage to draw our own lines.
Hospitals have similar separation, from the Emergency Room to Intensive Care Unit; Operating Room to Recovery Room. After checking in, you might see every section in the place.
Diseases carry a special status. The Parkinson's Study Group, the Cancer Ward, is similar to system rooms like the Urinary Ward, the Orthopedic Ward. The Mental Ward. It's all in there.
Fortunately all of these specialized categories go missing in the Family Caregiving Ward.
Also known as home.
There's no registration, no protocol. You and your loved know each other all too well. You might not know their Social Security Number, but you know where to find it. You're that close.
The family caregiver doesn't hand out menu requests. You already know what's in the pantry. If you don't have all the ingredients for a gourmet meal, you make do without panic. You are a family caregiver. You all eat together; eat the same thing. Just make a list for the grocery store.
There's no need for hospital exam gowns either, unless its to keep one around as a prop. Breaking out the gown like its normal clothing is always good for a few laughs. If no laughs you've either worn the joke out, or your loved one has slipped a gear. Check the med times.
The home part of family caregiving is tricky for some. I'm not the first to walk into a nursing home or medical re-hab and feel like turning around immediately. I mention this as a caution. You may not think your home has the same effect on others, and it probably doesn't, but sometimes a new visitor might see the family caregiving, and your loved ones condition, and fall apart. Some people react emotionally to the unexpected.
For example, a group of ladies gathered here to plan an event. Most had been to the house before. One first-timer arrived in high spirits, turned the corner and saw Kenny and burst into tears. She found the door to downstairs and headed for the steps to gather herself for a moment.
I glimpsed a certain horror in her face before she flung herself around, like she could make Parkinson's go away if she squeezed her eyes as tight as she could. Ken was tuned into Perry Mason and didn't notice but she gave me a shock.
The bigger shock was learning that her husband had recently been diagnosed with Parkinson's. The woman saw Kenny and saw the future. Her husband will look like Ken down the line. It is all the more shocking because Parkinson's isn't often mentioned as a chronic wasting disease. What do you think of when you hear Parkinson's? The shake, not the weight. Ken had been eighty pounds heavier before Parkinson's.
The other women on that day knew Ken better and said hello, knowing he may or may not respond. He liked being noticed. He acknowledged each in courtly fashion, and silence. We talked about it later.
"Ken, you old rascal. You're a babe magnet."
He sat with his feet on a stool while I changed his ankle bandage.
"The one in the black sweater ran off when she first saw you."
The dog started jumping onto the foot stool.
"Her husband has Parkinson's, just found out."
I bumped the dog away with my leg.
"You remember when you first found out? You went to the LA VA for a week?"
The ankle with the pressure sore was warm. I felt his other ankle. Same temp, no panic.
"She showed me picture of her old man. I showed her a picture of you before you got sick. She started crying again."
I made a note to file down his toenails. The last one I clipped was so thick the whole thing shattered with shards bouncing off my face. Filing is better. Safer.
"You looked a lot like her husband. She sees you like this and she sees him. Let me tell you Kenny, you don't look that bad. You're not scary looking."
He lifted his eyes the way he did when the ladies said hello.
"You're not. You look better than John Wayne or Henry Fonda at their last Academy Awards. Lots better. I'm not just telling you that. If you want to see a picture then I'll get one."
He stared at me. I tape the bandage back on his ankle.
"So she cries and cries and I have to do something, right? What would you do? I put my arms out. I didn't pull her in, she walked in there on her own. I held her, you know, politely, not too tight. And not too long, but she cried so hard all over this shirt."
I lifted the shoulder she cried on. Kenny's eyes track my hand.
"Good thing I'm wearing one of your shirts, huh Kenny? Something's smeared on it over here. I'll just put it back in your drawer, okay? Right in here. This is nice pull-over?"
I took the shirt off and moved a few things around the drawer to see if he's paying attention.
His eyes don't move off of me when he says,
"Not the drawer."
"Tell me where."
I picked his shirt up.
"In here?"
His eyes don't move. I held the shirt over a laundry basket.
"In here?"
He gives me one nod.
"Good call, Kenny. You've still got it going."
A small thing, a gesture, something that goes unnoticed in a regular long term care day, makes all the difference to the family caregiver. Any signal from a loved one showing they recognize what's happening around them in a blessing. It tells you they still know its you.
Instead of moving to the next person in line on the list of a normal caregiver in a facility, the family caregiver uses slight communications to build their loved one a foundation for the next day, the next week. They use everything that happens between them.
And it's enough.

Symposium 241
Symposium 241
Abstract details
Modelling the near-IR spectra of red supergiant-dominated populationsA. Lancon et al.
Red supergiants (RSG) provide most of the near-IR emission of many star forming galaxies. In these dusty environments, near-IR wavelengths sometimes provide the only direct access to photospheric light. We will summarize efforts made recently to improve the modelling of the spectra of young stellar populations at these wavelengths. Topics discussed will include: (i) a brief survey of current difficulties in this field and implications for issues like the IMF in young star clusters, (ii) the determination of stellar parameters from model fits to the near-IR spectra, using solar and RSG-specific surface abundances, (iii) predictions from population synthesis models using recent stellar spectra that extend through the near-IR range, (iv) applications to the spectra of clusters in M82.

We are home. And I'm glad we have a big hot water tank because we all showered as if we had never felt anything so wonderful. It was extra nice since we had anticipated a snow mobile ride but three of us skied and the dog got a good walk out of it. Bill took a couple of loads to the car and Carly went with him then, to pack up in the car while he went to get Kristi, her friend and the dog. I locked up the cottage and started to ski. As soon as they got on, the sled flipped and put Kristi and the dog in the snow. Back on. Halfway to the car parking lot the snow mobile decided to quit. We skied and he stayed behind with the seat open and tools out. By the time we arrived he came with his snow mobile on his sled- being pulled by the taxi- snow mobile. Oh well, he should do an overhaul on it this summer I guess..
Our strategy when coming home is to unpack right away, start piling stuff in front of the basement door so that we all bring something with us down there for stowing away or putting into the laundry room as we are going to have a shower. (We have a bath tub upstairs and a shower on the basement floor )Now the washing machine is working on the first load, the dishwasher is going after a smoked ham dinner and Emma is passed out on the couch after she got to mooch some soft ice cream from us. The year's first soft ice cream!
The evening is going to be all about enjoying being at home. Candles, knitting, internet, my audiobook. The girls are not to be seen or heard; they are probably on their beds in front of their Macs

14 years. I don't even know how to process that kind of passage of time. The fact that I can remember what I was doing 14 years ago means that I'm basically a fossil. It's weird how memories work. I couldn't tell you anything about the morning of 9/11/2001. Not a thing. And I couldn't tell you about that night either. But there are vivid memories of specific points of that day. Like when a teacher ran into my Reading class (I was in 7th grade) and told our teacher to turn on the TV because someone had flown planes into something. I heard the word tower, which I immediately associated with Eiffel. I remember thinking, why is this woman in such a panic over the Eiffel tower? No one lives in the Eiffel tower. Also, how do you fly a plane into the Eiffel tower? Seems like it would take more work than it's worth. Why is this news? Those were my exact stream of thoughts. My teacher was acting completely hysterical and I was so confused.
Then I realized it was not the Eiffel tower. We spent the rest of the day (I was in a huge public school so there was a lot of commotion/mayhem) going from class to class watching the news. I think that's all we did that day was watch the news in different classrooms. Some of our teachers made us write reactions about it. I think we were sent home early, and when I got home my dad was watching TV and crying. He grew up in NYC, and we still had family there. My last actual memory of that day was my dad just staring at the TV.
I don't remember anything about the day after that, or the day before that. I know that afterwards we had to listen to the national anthem every single day at school and recite the pledge of allegiance. This felt patriotic for about a week, but then we just kept doing it for the rest of the school year and nobody was sure why. I went to the same school the next year and we had to continue doing that, and some students were really over it by then. I had an English teacher who was a very odd bird, her toes looked like Fritos and her eyebrows were painted on in the exact shape of the St. Louis Arch. Anyway, some of the students would sit down early, like before the person sang the last note of the national anthem, and boy she would fuss. The response was usually "F**k you" because, well it was a public school and they preyed on the weak teachers, and she was weak unfortunately. I was the goody goody and would always stay standing the whole time, she counted on that. I knew she liked me because I was one of the only students who hadn't cussed her out or thrown something at her. But one day I was feeling pretty tired and annoyed, so I sat down before the anthem was over and she was shocked. I think she actually talked to me about it, that she didn't want me to become like the rest of them. It was a whole deal.
Anyway, yeah. 9/11 was an incredibly significant event in America's recent history. It blows my mind though that there are people who see 9/11 like I see the JFK shooting. Something that happened when I wasn't alive, but I hear about it all the time and how traumatic it was for everyone. That's such an odd thing.
This is a really long post. I'll end it here before I start going into some kind of political manifesto about how America hasn't learned anything from our past tragedies because we're still a nation filled with hateful, intolerant people. Whoops.
Okay bye.
Oh wait, one more story about my Frito footed 8th grade English teacher. Our school was predominantly black, and she was this odd old white lady, so you have some context. One morning when we were listening to the national anthem, after it finished, she made some comment about how it was Mariah Carey that sung it. And the class just lost it. I mean, any hearing person would've realized that it was Whitney Houston's iconic version of the national anthem, but that lady stuck to her guns, even while the class berated her and called her all kinds of unkind things. It's funny to me now, how adamantly she defended her position to a bunch of black 8th graders. But she stood brave in the face of adversity. I wonder how she is now? I wish I could find her and apologize for the hell those kids put her through. They were awful to her. I hated that class, and I didn't like her much because she was a terrible teacher, but she didn't deserve to be treated the way she was. I hope she quit eventually and retired somewhere nice.
Okay bye for real this time.
Love, tolerate! Appreciate. 🙂

As we've all been able to tell rather well from my previous articles, my ability in the satire department is rather weak. So, I'm going to try this. Maybe once a week, if possible, I'm going to write a short story in really whatever topic I feel to. So, without further ado, let's begin.
I woke with a scream, hands squeezing the sheets, drenched in sweat. Alone. "It was just a dream", I find myself repeating. Yet, I don't even remember what it was that shook me so bad. Then again, what else should I expect. I never do, so why should this time be any different. I guess it's okay to hope. I just wish I could figure it out. What taunts me and torments me so much that I scream and grab onto whatever I can for dear life. I once even awoke to find myself crying. Is it you? It can't be. You're gone. Aren't you? Haven't I moved past this? I guess some wounds would rather fester than heal. Maybe I deserve this. After all, I never appreciated you for what you did. Kept me level headed. Comforted me and loved all the twisted things about me. No time to think about that though. Time to start the day. Just… swing your legs around and stand up. Slide on the socks. Pants. Shirt. Shoes. Brush your teeth. Side to side. Swish. Spit. Mouthwash. Repeat. Now you're ready. You've prepared yourself to stagger through another day. Oh wait, don't forget your smile. That's the most important part. If you forget it then people will worry about you and we can't have that.
Just another day at work. Typical menial labor. Nothing special. Going through the motions. Home is quiet. I actually can cook though, which is nice. That's something I won't need you for, but it always makes me think of you. As the tangy smell of the marinara spreads through the air and thickens and as I sit with my meal, I'm forced to remember every time we did this. Chatting about life. Work. School. As your photo hangs on my wall… Almost like you're taunting me. I can only hope that you're happy where you are now. I know that you were never happy here. Why else would that have happened?
Walking past your room, my hand brushes the knob and traipses along smooth wood. A warmth resonates from it like that that I used to feel on our embraces that I took for granted; those that, now, I feel were seldom received, especially as I grew older. I hesitate. Something compels me to open the door. I do, almost as if I don't have a choice. As if something had taken control of my body and pushed the door open. I feel it stick, as it always did. Nothing. Your mattress lays there. Still made. All of your knickknacks remain. A thin layer of dust has already accumulated and, despite you being gone, it still feels as if you're there. I flick on the light. The darkness is quickly swallowed by the light and, just as quickly, overwhelmed by the overpowering darkness as the light bursts with a sharp crack.
With deliberation, I shut the door and wander through the emptiness of the house. I head to my room and shut my own door, despite the fact that no one is there. I turn on the T.V. even though I have no intention of watching it. I pull out the knife you used and stare at it. I long for you. No matter what I try I can't stop. I love you.

California Child Support: The DissoMaster
No one can deny that parents must support their children, so child support is a mandatory component of a divorce action. However, the exact amount ordered was a serious point of contention at one time when child support amounts were mostly at the discretion of the court. A California judge would review combined parental income and make an arbitrary decision on which parent should pay and how much. Without firm Read More

Each year I participate in a little knitting competition called Sock Madness. It had brackets. It has speed. It has Norwegians. Everything a good sport should have. The premise is fairly simple. Qualify (by knitting an assigned pattern in two weeks) and then knit your way through each assigned pattern as quickly as you can to beat out the other people on your team. The first year I participated there were four teams. This year there are ten or eleven. My team is somewhere in the middle. We are all "average speed" knitters. I'm supposedly matched with other knitters who knit about the same speed as I do. The nice thing about this competition is that it is one of the friendliest games I've ever been in. People cheer you on and encourage you when you get down.
The current sock was supposed to be knit on size US 0 (2.0 mm needles). I made it half way through the first sock before I had to quit and frog it (I had a missed cable and the small diameter needle along with the very rigid fabric made my hands ache so badly). I have since recast on (recasted on? recast onned?) the sock on larger needles with larger yarn. It is going a bit more smoothly this time. I'm hoping to make it to round five this time. (I have never made it past round four.)
I used to knit with size 0 needles all the time, but in the past few years I have found that they don't play nicely with my hands. I also have problems knitting with needles that are too large (size 13's, 15's, 35's). I guess my hands prefer my 6's, 7's, and 8's. I guess I should be knitting more sweaters and fewer socks. Every year when sock madness comes around, though, I can't not knit with them. I have to know what is in store for this year's patterns. We've had zippers, buttons, funky vikkel braiding cast ons, socks knit side to side, tape (!), and the dreaded nupps (two row bobbles for the non-knitters). Each year when you think that you have knit all there is to knit someone comes up with a new technique that, well, knocks your socks off. It's fun and I love the people I have met in this madness.
It's too late to sign up this year, but head over to Ravelry and check the group out or go to the patterns and search for Sock Madness patterns. They are fresh, unique and down right fun.

A golfer can't feel much more exhilaration than 22-year-old Jamie Fairbanks felt Wednesday on the key hole in the key match in the Radix Cup competition at Oak Park Country Club.
Fairbanks, last year's Big 10 champion from Illinois, carried his putter on a 240-yard walk up the 15th fairway. He'd just smacked his downwind 2-iron second shot that distance to the middle of the green of the 531-yard par-5 hole.

text: Writing this blog has sure been challenging because if I want to make it hopefully the good read that it can be I must put my heart and soul into each and every word. Traveling on its own drains much of my already dwindling battery power but at its best, this writing has allowed me to look back on my day and think 'hell, I actually did that!' Writing for me has been like a puzzle in which you take many disjointed words and place them into harmony, except it is a puzzle with various acceptable endings and outcomes; you must choose your own story, your way of telling it. My way may be discombobulated at times but at the end of the day it is my way and I love it all the same.

Katamari Damacy – "Katamari on the Rock" (Yu Miyake & Masayuki Tanaka)May 20, 2010
Here's an all-time classic vgm piece from a wonderfully quirky (and fun!) game, Katamari Damacy. You may be familiar with the game through the craze it spawned in 2004, but if you're not, you need to pick it up and play it! (I'd recommend the original two, as Keita Takahashi did not design any of the later titles as he is averse to sequels). The object of the game is to roll a ball around and collect objects smaller than the ball; the more items the ball picks up, the larger it becomes and the larger the items you can pick up. Excellent music and wonderful cartoon graphics make this entertaining mechanic even better. The soundtrack to the original was published in Katamari Damacy Soundtrack "Katamari Fortissimo Damacy" (2004). "Katamari on the Rocks" is by far the most famous piece from the game, and is the "main theme" that plays in multiple places.
Katamari Damacy – "Katamari on the Rock" (Yu Miyake & Masayuki Tanaka)
"Katamari on the Rock" is an excellent fast-paced, uplifting song with great taiko drums and trumpets. The rising and falling full notes match the upward and downward movement of the ball as it is pushed by the Prince through uneven terrain while the quick, rolling beat fits the pattering of his feet. The track is also very inspiring (Don't worry, do your best!) which both reassures and invigorates – especially with the enthusiastic yelling of vocalist Masayuki Tanaka. The 'chu-chu-chu' that makes up the female vocal support is Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound made when kissing, too. Yu Miyake composed a clear winner when he did "Katamari on the Rock" – each note is so full of joy that you can't help but smile.
The lyrics have also been translated here, so you can follow them along as you go. They reflect a love for the beauty of the world and the significant other – joy of life and living, which is exactly Keita Takahashi's philosophy. I believe the title refers to the Earth. Of course, the song also mixes English with Japanese (which seems to be fairly common), but there is enough here that a translation is required! A shortened instrumental version of the theme plays in the intro, which is one of the best and funniest (and most ridiculous) in game history:
The album still sells quite well, and you can buy the whole thing from places like CD Japan (just watch out for the crazy import fees on top of the overpriced costs of the albums themselves! The album will set you back about $35, should you choose to import; used copies go for considerably less. With prices so outrageous, there's little wonder why so few people buy vgm! (Though I WILL say this is one album I did purchase)). There are plenty of excellent songs in the soundtrack aside from "Katamari on the Rock", too!
"Katamari on the Rock" (along with several other songs) has been arranged several times in the various games. I am not as familiar with these except for "Katamari on the Funk", which is a kind of New Orleans funk mix. I'll stick with the original, please!
The Katamari Damacy soundtrack arranges the music into full songs; the in-game versions are designed to loop to match the endless play modes of the game, and as a result, the lyrics fade out to be replaced with instrumental versions.
"Katamari on the Rock" was composed by Yu Miyake, composer for the later Tekken and Ridge Racer games. He helped pen the lyrics with the game's designer, Keita Takahashi (who by the way is a really cool guy).
The vocals are sung by Masayuki Tanaka, the famous vocalist from the band Crystal King, which did the opening music to many anime such as Fist of the North Star. He's produced several solo albums, but was hit in the throat by a baseball and so he can't sing as well as he did in the 80s and early 90s. However, he is still quite famous, made even more so by the memorable "Katamari on the Rocks".

Frequently Asked Questions:
Here are the questions that seem to pop up most often. Feel free to contact us with other questions or more information.
How much does it cost to join the Clay Arts Guild?
We have several options for membership. Our basic rate is $50 per month and you get what we call a tub. You get 3 – 5 shelves with a large "Rubbermaid" tub on the floor underneath for all your tools, clay and pottery. These "tubbies" have more than enough space for the average potter or beginner.
Do you have studio space available?
Our standard studio is 10'X10' and costs $130 per month. We also have a few ½ and ¾ studios available too. These smaller studios are pro-rated at ½ or ¾ of the basic studio rate of $130. Some of the studios may have shelves and work tables/counters, depending upon what the last occupant has left. Sometimes the former occupant will leave the furnishing or sell some when they leave. There is a waiting list for studios and you have to be a member to sign-up. Studios may be shared, but the individual's rate for the shared studio will not be less than the regular $50 per month membership rate.
How much are classes?
We have a variety of classes with most being for beginner or continuing students, and occasional "specialty" or intermediate to advanced classes. We try to always have both handbuilding and wheel throwing classes available, with occasionally classes that are a combination. Our standard class is 3 hours per week for 10 weeks (30 hours)at $150. However, we often teach classes that are only 2 hours per week or maybe only 6 or 8 weeks long. These shorter classes are pro-rated for the number of class hours offered.
What do I get as a student?
Students are considered members and have full access to all of the guild's facilities 24/7 whether you are taking handbuilding or throwing.
What do I need or what other expenses are there when I take a class? Students and members have to buy their own clay, pay firing fees and furnish many of their own hand tools. The guild has all of the equipment you would need and if you are a hand builder all of the tools you would need. Archie Bray is your best source for clay, tools, and just about anything else you may want to enjoy pottery and it is in Helena.
I thought all pottery is made on the wheel. What other kind is there? The wheel is actually a pretty recent development in pottery's history. Ancient cultures made beautiful works of art using pinch, coil or slab building methods for thousands of years, before the kick or hand wheel was even invented. Many people are misled into believing that round forms must be made on the wheel. While it is true that different shapes tend to lend themselves more readily toward a particular construction method, in reality, each potter has a method they prefer and often specialize in. Many instructors prefer to start off beginners with hand building, and introducing the potter's wheel later as a tool to be used to achieve a certain form, along the same lines as slab rollers, extruders, molds and various hand tools. However, our classes are designed to start you where you would like whether it be throwing or handbuilding.
If I sign up for the pottery wheel, can I still try hand building? As a guild member, you are free to try everything that we have at the guild. There are no restrictions, and no schedules. In fact, you are only limited by your own imagination, and we have plenty of magazine and books for more ideas. Plus you'll be surrounded by other potters doing wonderful things. The guild is a playground and you can try everything. You'll get a little dirty but you'll have lots of fun.
I have pottery equipment at home and want to occasionally use your glazes and get my work fired. Do you have by-the-hour rates? We have a number of Guild members who do most of their work at home, but bring their work into the guild for bisquing, glazing and firing. We don't offer hourly rates, but our memberships are very low and perfect for home potters that do not have the firing options (electric, gas, reduction, salt, raku, barrel or pit) that we offer. Plus we offer a large variety of glazes and other finishing materials, including a spray booth that could be very expensive to recreate in your home studio.
Is there a limit on how many pieces I can make each month? No. We do want to fire all of our members pottery in a timely and equitably manner. However, you will only be limited by how often our volunteers are able to fire and how much pottery is waiting to be fired. Many members who make a lot of pottery will learn to fire or help fire so they can make sure that their pieces get done in a timely manner. Everyone "chips" in as the guild is all run by volunteers, so if you make a lot of pottery you would be expected to help out more.
Members & Students get 24/7 access to the facility as they each get the combination to the doors, so they may come and go as fits their schedule. Our membership and class fees are generally lower and our level of instruction is equal to or better than others within the community. We have all of the equipment available for wheel throwing, handbuilding, slabbing, extruding, glazing, sparying and firing. We also have the lowest firing fees around.
How much are your firing fees? Many studios charge per cubic foot or cubic inch to fire, which can add up considerably, even at 10 or 25 cents a cubic inch. We do not charge by the cube and we have the lowest firing fees in the area, which also includes our glazes. We charge by the kiln load and that is shared by all the potters who have pieces in that particular kiln firing.
What kinds of firing do you do you do? We offer Low Fire (cone 06, 05, & 04) and Mid-Fire (cone 6) in both gas and electric. We also have 2 High Fire (cone 10) gas kilns and a gas fired Salt kiln (cone 10), in addition to Raku, pit and barrel firing available.
I'm not a member, can I get my pottery fired in your kilns? Unfortunately we do not fire non-member's pottery. We're very particular about making sure our member's pieces are fired promptly, safely and don't get damaged, dinged or splattered in the kiln. Firing a kiln can be very time consuming and all of our firings are done by volunteer members. We have to give priority to our member's pottery and we would rarely have enough room to fire non-member pieces, nor do we allow folks unfamiliar with our equipment and procedures to fire in our kilns.
What if I need help with something I'm working on? Not only do we have a studio technician, but we also have many experienced potters and pottery instructors who are members of the guild. There will almost always be someone around to help out with ideas or techniques and to lend a hand. We are a community or family of potters and everyone helps everyone else.
What do I wear? Comfortable clothes that you won't worry about getting dirty. White and gray clay generally comes out completely in the wash. Some Red clay contains iron oxide and may not wash out of certain materials. Many potters wear aprons and carry or lay a towel in their laps. Also, hand building is not nearly as messy as throwing on the wheel, so plan accordingly.
Do your glazes contain lead and are they all food safe? There is no lead in any of our glazes. We do have a few glazes which may not be food safe and all of these are plainly labeled. You would not want to use these inside of food containers, but they are safe on the outsides or for non-food use. Lead has been one of the most important ingredients of glaze for at least 4,000 years. Since lead is poisonous if ingested, you should be aware of this if you make a habit of buying antique pottery for use as dinnerware. (If in doubt, please check it with lead test strips that are available at most hardware stores.) Over the past 50 years, lead substitutes have been incorporated into the vast majority of potters' glazes and most are as good or better than those old lead glazes. Therefore it is not necessary to use leaded glazes.
Who can I talk to about accessibility issues?

Buttercup is often a white unicorn using a yellow mane and a pink nose. Even with his physical appearance, he has an exceedingly gruff voice and sarcastic temperament. He's the primary to introduce himself to Woody when Bonnie delivers him property, and tells Woody, coupled with Trixie, Dolly, Mr.
Appreciate animated and live action Disney short movies. Additionally be influenced by our favorites from other creators!
In Toy Tale two, a trio of these are hanging higher than the dashboard during the Pizza Earth truck. Buzz groans when he sees them, remembering them in the claw activity in the 1st movie. In the event the toys are owning trouble receiving the truck to maneuver, they explain to Mr. Potato Head to "make use of the wand of ability" (the truck's equipment lever), which they mistook to the control lever of the enormous claw match. They virtually slide out in the window, due to sharp turns from Buzz seeking to capture Al in his automobile. Fortuitously, Mr. Potato Head will save them. The Tiny Eco-friendly Gentlemen are thankful and hand him his ear. All over the rest of the Film they frequently say "You might have saved our lives, we've been eternally grateful," Significantly to Potato Head's dismay. The Small Green Males sign up for The hunt to save Woody and mistaken the doorway to your baggage spot to the "Mystic Portal".
Bonnie Anderson appears in Toy Story 3 as one of the kids who goes to Sunnyside Daycare, and is the 2nd/existing operator of Woody, Excitement and the other toys. Her mother, Mrs. Anderson (voiced by Lori Alan) is effective within the front desk. Although she has an Energetic creativeness and boisterous method when twiddling with her toys, she is shy and withdrawn when she is close to adults, but she immediately warms nearly Andy, when he donates his toys to her.
When Woody and also the toys are rescued because of the aliens, Hamm and Slinky wish to get again at Lotso for leaving them to die, but Woody talks them from it, declaring that "he is not worth it" and the dump is the proper place for him. Lotso (who's unaware the Andy's toys remain alive) is inevitably uncovered by a rubbish gentleman who recalls that he once experienced a A lot-O'-Huggin' Bear as a toddler, and straps Lotso on the grill of the rubbish truck with three other toys prior to driving absent.
Despite his visual appearance, Stinky Pete will not appear within the 3rd movie, mainly because he was not outlined, though he appears to properly forecast the functions of Toy Tale three (as what he experienced claimed following his defeat started to occur correct during the movie).

In Toy Tale three, Andy is seventeen and making ready to go off to varsity, meaning to here place a lot of his toys within the attic aside from Woody, whom he at first plans to acquire with him. Even though he seemingly has not performed with his toys for some years and has given a lot of them absent, he remains to be immune to his mom's recommendation to possibly donate or offer his remaining toys, referring to them as "junk" (which the toys consider is exactly what he definitely thinks). After they go lacking, nevertheless, he will become upset and baffled when he are unable to discover them. Right before he goes to varsity, Woody secretly places the tackle of Bonnie (the younger daughter of a relatives Mate) about the box Using the toys in it, resulting in Andy to come back all around to the concept of donating them.
Though It is far from certain whether they are male or female to start with look, they are determined inside the 3rd movie by Mr. Potato Head as "[his] boys," implying that every one a few are male.
A set of toys who were being stolen from their homeowners in the course of their continue to be with the Sleep Very well roadside motel by Manager Ron's pet iguana, Mr. Jones, to ensure that Ron could promote them on line.
Inside of a reference to the relationship of Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader, the principal hero and villain respectively of the first Star Wars trilogy, Evil Emperor Zurg statements he is in actual fact the father of Excitement, in an Practically phrase-for-phrase parody from the scene inside the Empire Strikes Back. As Zurg makes an attempt to finish off Utility Belt Excitement (at stage-blank selection), Rex accidentally hits Zurg with his significant tail, sending him slipping down the elevator shaft. The second Buzz then appears to be in excess of the shaft and reaches his hand out, considering he has misplaced his father, although Rex is excited that he has finally managed to defeat Zurg in serious lifestyle. Near the conclude of your film, Zurg is viewed to obtain survived his drop by using a bent horn and is particularly now playing catch with the Buzz duplicate. He supposedly bumped his head so difficult In order he forgot he was Buzz Lightyear's worst enemy. The second Buzz Lightyear then says, "Oh, you are a terrific father!" as he rushes to capture another ball fired by Zurg. Inside the novelisation, having said that, Zurg is killed by the autumn, Utility Belt Excitement finds him and requires him back again to Al's Toy Barn to bury him.
Stretch can be a toy rubber octopus with sticky suckers on her 8 very long arms along with a glittery, purple entire body. She is the only real female member of Lotso's gang, and at first welcomes the toys, but afterwards can help capture them along with her elastic tentacles. Along with her cohorts, she later on catches Woody and his buddies, and was desperate to press them in the dumpster, should really they not admit defeat. However, Extend was also noticed being the very first toy to doubt Lotso's leadership and motives, as she was witnessed to visibly cringe at Lotso's true character remaining uncovered.
In Toy Tale, it is actually hinted that he was Andy's favored toy years before the events of your film, until finally he acquired Woody at The purpose of kindergarten, and thus looks to have a strong jealousy toward Andy`s appreciate for Woody. Then, when Andy will get the Buzz Lightyear motion figure for his birthday he gets to be fascinated with all of Excitement's characteristics and ridicules Woody for not possessing a laser like Excitement along with Woody's pull-string. Right after Buzz is knocked out with the window, Potato Head (Possibly because of his jealously to Woody, and eager to reclaim his long missing most loved toy placement) blames Woody for kicking him out, believing that Woody may possibly do precisely the same to him if Andy performs with him a lot more normally, and turns the other toys against Woody and sales opportunities a mutiny with them. When Woody reveals himself at Sid's Residence later on, Mr. Potato Head convinces the others to refuse to assist him, nonetheless assuming that Woody attacked Buzz.

Ike Davis, Daniel Murphy and Bobby Parnell are poised to file for arbitration today.
The players' union on Tuesday night will announce which players have filed for arbitration. And, barring a settlement in the next several hours, all three eligible Mets -- Ike Davis, Daniel Murphy and Bobby Parnell -- are poised to be on the list, multiple industry sources told ESPNNewYork.com.
While a team insider would not rule out a multi-year deal ultimately materializing with one of those players, there are no current talks that cover beyond the 2013 season, a source added.
Murphy's salary last season, set by the club, stood at $512,196. Davis earned $506,690. And Parnell earned $504,000.
MLBTradeRumors.com forecasts Murphy should get a raise to $3 million, with Davis jumping to $2.8 million and Parnell at $1.5 million.
Barring a settlement, the player and team will exchange their final contract demands Friday. An arbitrator would choose either the player's submitted figure or the team's submitted figure after a hearing next month in Florida -- not some point in the middle.
Davis is a "Super Two" and will have four years of arbitration eligibility before being eligible for free agency after the 2016 season. Murphy and Parnell are due to become free agents after the 2015 season.

The most recent short interest data has been released by the NASDAQ for the 05/30/2014 settlement date, which shows a 672,572 share increase in total short interest for RAIT Financial Trust (RAS), to 6,208,788, an increase of 12.15% since 05/15/2014. Total short interest is just one way to look at short data; another metric that we here at Dividend Channel find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares traded. The number of shares short is then compared to the average daily volume, in order to calculate the total number of trading days (at the average volume) it would take to close out all of the open short positions if every share traded represented a short position being closed. Average daily volume for RAS at the 05/30/2014 settlement decreased to 622,455, as compared to 923,708 at the 05/15/2014 report. That brought "days to cover" up to 9.97, a 66.43% increase from the 5.99 days to cover calculated at the previous short interest data release.The below chart shows the historical "days to cover" for RAS at previous short interest release dates:
The chart below shows the one year performance of RAS shares, versus its 200 day moving average. Looking at this chart, RAS's low point in its 52 week range is $6.16 per share, with $9.21 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $7.94.According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, RAS makes up 1.24% of the Mortgage REIT Income ETF (MORT) which is lower by about 0.3% on the day Thursday.
In afternoon trading Thursday, RAS was off about 0.8% on the day.

Then around 5, the sun came out and I jumped on my scooter to the beach to walk and enjoy the sun's warmth and hear the sounds of the waves, the gulls and the happy walkers on the beach with their dogs. Bringing a camera was a bonus since I could capture the scene and then today, enjoy the post processing. As you can see, I enhanced the colors on all of these.

RealtyTrac: Zombie and Vampire Foreclosures / Biased Trends are deceptive
RealtyTrac is already familiar to ZombieLaw readers for their references "zombie homes" in foreclosures – now a new RealtyTrac report refers to vampires: "Monsters of the Housing Market: Vampire REOs and Zombie Foreclosures" by Daren Blomquist, RealtyTrac Vice President.
Blomquist makes a distinction between foreclosure with the homeowner still living there or not. Blomquist says zombie are foreclosures where the homeowners abandoned but when the homeowner is still there, those are vampires.
That's terrible! Totally a banker perspective that the people trying to hold on to their homes after the worst recession since the Great Depression are somehow they are vampires. It's the banks who are vampire-squid bloodsuckers! The banks who made the zombies when they wouldn't negotiate. The homeowners are not the monsters! The homeowners need assistance — the banks got bailed out from the government but the assistance never got to the homeowners!!! Instead, it's just an "opportunity" for the next guy.
Why does RealtyTrac push these inhuman metaphors? Probably because it's Halloween month and they are hoping for hits. And they got them:
"In US, 'Vampire' Home Inventory Hiding in Shadows" by WPC Staff
"Vampire & zombie foreclosures threatening housing market" by Rachel Leigh
"RealtyTrac spots spooky new trends in homeownership" by Ben van der Meer
"'Vampire' foreclosures are what's keeping bank inventory high, analyst says"
So ok. But is the October Zombie peak going to happen this year? The Google Trends algorithm is confused. Recall last time we looked (also in reference in RealtyTrac), GoogleTrend predicted a bump in summer (because it thought the Florida Bath Salts Zombie from the previous year would repeat) and then a bigger surge in October (the annual pattern for many years is a surge in October)
But there was no bump in the summer (maybe it's peaked – maybe Brad Pitt really did kill the zombies with his summer movie!). So now GoogleTrend thinks there will be no bump for October this year. The zombies have peaked! — but when it aggregates for next year, it still thinks October 2014 zombies could be huge.
This is a real problem of predictive technologies. We can guess why people were searching "zombie" but not everything is as cyclical as strawberries. So who knows why the homeowners are still in the foreclosed homes? We must help these vampires keep their homes and force banks to restore their zombies. Real estate banking is not supposed to be about getting graphs to predict monstrous annual rises, it's supposed to be about helping people afford a good place to live!

LONDON: For doctors struggling to eradicate polio, fighting the paralytic disease can mean vaccinating children in war-torn regions, persuading governments to pay attention, and begging donors for money.
A recent polio outbreak in Nigeria revealed another potential problem: the vaccine commonly used against it. Last week, the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control reported that since 2005, 69 Nigerian children have been paralyzed by a polio virus derived from the oral vaccine. Two other cases made it to Niger.
Such cases are not unknown, but the continuing Nigerian outbreak is the biggest ever, and follows a boycott of the vaccination campaign in Africa's most populous country because of unfounded fears the vaccine was a Western plot to sterilize Muslims.
Officials now worry that the latest Nigerian outbreak traced to the vaccine could trigger another vaccine scare.
"This is the oral polio vaccine paradox," said Olen Kew, a virologist at the United States' Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "This vaccine is the most effective tool we have against the virus, but it's like fighting fire with fire." Read More …

Dear Gossips,
Morley reminded me of this video just a few weeks ago. It's from 2004 at Meryl Streep's AFI Lifetime Achievement Award gala. Nora Ephron was one of the speakers. If you've not seen it before you'll love it. She's funny, of course, obviously. But she's funny because she took the time to write it. She probably spent a few hours, maybe days, writing it, taking care with it like a scene in a film, measuring the exact timing so that the jokes landed perfectly. And here is the result - a smart, concise, and hilarious tribute to a dear friend, from one remarkable woman to another. It's one thing to be honoured. It's another to be honoured by someone who knows, you know?
Yours in gossip,
