Weekly Bulletin – January 23 – 27, 2017
Weekly Bulletin
Year of the Rooster
THOUGHT OF THE WEEK: LUNAR NEW YEAR OR CHINESE NEW YEAR: Chinese New Year is the longest national holiday in China and New Year's day is the most important date in the Chinese calendar.
Although China has used the Gregorian calendar since 1912, Chinese New Year is based on the ancient Chinese lunar calendar, falling on the second new moon after winter solstice — meaning it changes each year.
It is pronounced "Gong Xi Fa Cai" in Mandarin and "Gong Hey Fat Choy" in Cantonese, although both are written the same way.
Roughly a sixth of the world will observe Chinese New Year, with celebrations in Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia, along with other countries with significant Chinese populations.
London and San Francisco both claim to host the largest celebrations outside of Asia. Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year, is known in modern Chinese as the "Spring Festival" (simplified Chinese 春节; traditional Chinese 春節; Pinyin: Chūn Jié) in Mainland China, is an important Chinese festival celebrated at the turn of the traditional lunisolar Chinese calendar. Celebrations traditionally run from the evening preceding the first day, to the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first calendar month. The first day of the New Year falls on the new moon between 21 January and 20 February. In 2017, the first day of the Chinese New Year is on Saturday, 28 January, initiating another year of the rooster.
The New Year festival is centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Traditionally, the festival was a time to honor deities as well as ancestors. Chinese New Year is celebrated in countries and territories with significant Chinese populations, including Mainland China, Hong Kong (officially as Lunar New Year), Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Viet Nam, Mauritius, and the Philippines. Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the lunar new year celebrations of its geographic neighbours.
Within China, regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese New Year vary widely. Often, the evening preceding Chinese New Year's Day is an occasion for Chinese families to gather for the annual reunion dinner. It is also traditional for every family to thoroughly cleanse the house, in order to sweep away any ill-fortune and to make way for good incoming luck. Windows and doors will be decorated with red color paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of "good fortune" or "happiness", "wealth", and "longevity". Other activities include lighting firecrackers and giving money in red paper envelopes. Among about one third of the Mainland population, or 500 million Northerners, dumplings (especially those of vegetarian fillings) feature prominently in the meals celebrating the festival.
Chinese New Year was set to coincide with the slack time just before a new year of farm work begins, as a time of preparation.
When most Chinese were farmers this made sense. Now 55% of China's population is urban (a generation ago it was 25%), but 100+ million return to their rural roots for CNY.
Chinese traditionally celebrated the start of a new year of farm work, and wished/prayed for a good harvest. This has now evolved into celebrating the start of a new business year and wishing for profits and success in various vocations.

Hah! GOP May Kill Obamacare BEFORE Obama Leaves Office
Barack Obama will meet with Democratic lawmakers in Congress on Wednesday to discuss how to protect his signature healthcare law from Republican efforts to dismantle it.
But it might be tool late.
Senator Mike Enzi introduced on Tuesday a resolution to kill Obamacare.
And better yet— They may do it with a simple majority vote!
Thanks Harry Reid!
Reuters reported:
Mike Enzi introduced on Tuesday a resolution allowing for the repeal of President Barack Obama's signature health insurance program, which provides coverage to millions of Americans, Enzi's office said in a statement.
The move by the Senate's budget committee chairman on the first day of the new Congress set in motion the Republican majority's promise to repeal the 2010 Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, as its first major legislative item.
Republicans have said the repeal process could take months and that developing replacement health insurance plans could take years…
…The Republicans are using a budget resolution to provide for Obamacare's repeal, allowing them to act without any Democratic votes. Budget resolutions require a simple majority to pass in the Senate, instead of the 60 votes normally required to clear procedural hurdles. There are 52 Republicans in the 100-seat chamber.

Story Codes: MF, Consensual, Exhibitionism,
by Jana Cleveland
I had a really bad day after work. I wanted to go out with my friends but they all had
plans. I had finished up a lot of paperwork and I missed my lunch break. The only thing I
wanted to was to take off my clothes and just relax.
As soon as I got out of my work clothes and my shoes, I went upstairs into the bathroom
and I heard water running.
"Hello. Is somebody in there?" I said.
I stood behind the bathtub only to feel a wet, slippery hand slipping under my white crop
top. I softly gasped at the feel of the hand. I turned around to find Nick in the shower.
Knowing Nick, he loved the water. He loved it no matter what he's feeling. He sinfully
smiled as I looked at me.
"Oh my God Nick, I'm so glad to see you." I said to him.
"Me too, baby. I love seeing you." He replied.
He pulled my clothed body close to his dripping wet, naked, soapy body and deeply
kissed my lips as we stood under the warm spray of water. My medium-length black hair
was also wet. My hands ran through his blonde hair. My wet clothes stuck to my curvy
body while giving Nick a view of my bra through my top. I could feel his tongue slipping
into my mouth while kissing me. His hands were exploring my body.
Then, he took off my crop top, leaving me in my wet, white lace bra and panties. His
hands rested on my hips and my round ass as he kissed my neck. I moaned against his
ear. Nick unhooked my bra, freeing my breasts. I moaned at the feel of his mouth
suckling them. He came back up to kissing my lips and I felt his hand slip inside my
panties. With one of his fingers, he started softly rubbing and flicking my clit before
slipping his fingers into my pussy.
"Like that, baby?" He said.
"Yeah," I moaned.
He pressed my body against the cool, wet tile wall. I felt the cool, slick tiles against my
naked back. He removed my panties as he bent down to taste me. He opened my legs
and began licking and sucking me. I held on to his head with one head and placed the
other hand on the tile wall. I slowly rocked my hips against him as he lapped up my
female juices. I moaned and groaned louder as I felt myself come in his mouth. After his
oral assault, he got up, pulled my body close to him, and got a bottle of body wash. He
poured it all over my wet, naked body. With a wet body sponge in his hand, he rubbed it
all over me, creating a soapy lather. Once my whole body was covered in soap, I kissed
him in return. I started kissing his neck while hands explored every inch of his body. I
heard his moans from feeling my lips on his neck, which is his weak spot. My body was
still soapy. I began rubbing body wash and the soapy sponge all over his body.
Nick reached for a bottle of silicone-based lubricant from the shower caddy. He poured
some of the lubricant on his fingers being careful not to spill any of it on to the bathtub
and spread it around my pussy.
He looked at me with his blue, sultry, bedroom eyes and said, "Baby, I'm going to make
you so wet in this shower."
Once I was lubed up, he pulled my body close to his as I felt his cock get into me. I
gasped at the feel of him. My legs were wrapped around his waist. Our bodies were
rubbing against each other. He kissed my neck while he was in and out of me. I moaned
and groaned very loudly as he moved a little faster.
"That's it, baby. Come for me.," he urged.
Together, we climaxed and reached orgasm. I felt his man-milk inside me as I gave out a
passion-filled gasp. We kissed each other's lips and held each other close for a while.
Nick smiled as he said to me, "I think we should rinse before the water gets cold."
We stood under the shower and had the soap rinsed from our bodies. Once we were
rinsed, we got out of the shower and dried each other off with a big white towel.
"That was the steamiest shower I ever had." I said to Nick, smiling at him.
"Yeah, it was also the wettest,." he replied, giggling.
After the very steamy shower, Nick and I went to my bedroom to begin round two. There
were three words to describe our shower: wet, hot, and of course, steamy. I enjoyed
every minute of it with him.

President Barack Obama's announcement that he supports gay marriage brings the presidential stamp of approval to the divisive social issue but does not carry swift policy changes along with it.
Obama described his decision as a personal position. White House officials said his decision would not affect current policies. The president said he continued to believe that marriage is an issue best decided by states.
Here's a look at some of the top legislative issues pertaining to gay rights:
_ Six states and the District of Columbia issue marriage licenses to gay couples. Nine states allow civil unions or have domestic partnership laws that provide equivalent rights. Maine, Maryland and Washington state lawmakers have moved toward gay marriage, with final outcomes possibly to be decided by voters in November.
_ Obama repealed the military's 18-year-old ban on openly gay service members, known as "don't ask, don't tell." The repeal took effect in September 2011, allowing gay and lesbian service members to serve openly.
_ Obama instructed the Justice Department in February 2011 to stop enforcing the Defense of Marriage Act, which denies federal recognition of same-sex marriages and gives states the right to refuse to recognize such marriages. Obama has said he supports the law's repeal but most observers say it will be difficult to overturn it without a major shift in Congress.
_ Obama signed hate crimes legislation in October 2009 that made it a federal crime to assault someone because of his or her sexual orientation or gender identity.
_ Gay rights organizations have unsuccessfully urged Obama to sign an executive order barring discrimination against gays and lesbians who work for companies with federal contracts.
_ Gay rights advocates have sought legislation that would allow employees, their spouses and dependent children to continue participation in their employer-sponsored health coverage, typically at their own expense, after the employee loses a job or leaves employment.
_ Another proposal pursued by gay rights groups would bar public child welfare agencies that receive federal aid from discriminating against any potential foster or adoptive family on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity or marital status.

Project Description
Project Description
The menus were designed in a light-hearted, shabby-chic style and printed very simply on light-weight paper to give a tactile and informal feel to the product to suit the restaurant concept. A bespoke chalk board-style specials menu was also created to give the impression of authentic hand written specials board with interchangeable course options.
Bespoke bottle labels for various oils, olive selections and pots were produced on self-adhesive vinyl, which were cut to shape using our full colour solvent print-and-cut machine. All waiting and kitchen staff are required to wear branding work-wear, from aprons and chef hats, through to waiting staff shirts and we were able to brand and print these using a combination of printing methods alongside our heat-pressing equipment for garment decoration.
The restaurant's interior decoration needed some visual additions and so we were tasked with producing large format mounted prints of various Mediterranean fruits and vegetables to add to the feel. These were printed on self-adhesive vinyl which was subsequently laminated with a soft-touch textured film and then installed using brushed steel stand-offs for a modern finish.
Our work is ongoing at Brasserie Azure as this is an evolving brand, but the finishing touch to the opening project was to create a simple yet effective website that provides the feel and ambience of this unique dining experience as well as offering all of the information required by a potential customer.

Can anyone tell me what the job market for new grads looks like in Denver?? Is your unit hiring??

I don't even have a clue what to do anymore.May 28, '09Thanks for replying. Im so sorry to hear that...I guess I'll be sticking to my original option and move to Texas! The job market for new grads is not good in Alabama either, the funny part is they'll hire you for sure as long as you have experience!!Jun 2, '09This is really pathetic. I'm in CA and looking to move out of the state in the attempts to find a job as a new grad. It is very very difficult to find a job in CA especially in the bay area.
One of the states I'm interested in is Colorado and this is sad to hear. I'll research Texas and see how it is over there.

I'm liking this one a lot, though I have the feeling I'll be revising her a bit. I've heard it said often one should never love one's own work - pah, I say. You had better love your work. Sometimes that's all that gets you through rejections, revisions, and the long haul from poem to manuscript. That said, I would venture to say that you need to be able to take your lumps and critics seriously, too, or you'll never learn to improve your craft.
In any case, I offer you a first draft of "Persephone," and I'll admit to liking the last few lines quite a bit more than is proper. Here's to hoping this one grows into a keeper!
Persephone by Colleen S. Harris
There is nothing so faithless as
a girl left on her own among the other
green and growing things. Brimming
with life, carelessly killing the field's
flowering army so she can wear
ribbons of bluebells in her hair,
she has no need of forgiveness
or prayer, no sense of life's fraying
hem. She has no idea she's dancing
over death's own head, bare feet
knocking at his soil door until he rises
hungry from the pit, the field a gaping
maw, his sudden hand a vise
on her ankle as she falls. Landing
in a heap, tangled in her own long
locks, trapped between his body
and the earth, she looks up
at him and finds the need for faith.
Now she believes, and prays.
When the dark hand of a god slips
up your skirt, how is a girl to say no?

A solar storm is something we cannot at this point mitigate against. Governments around the world have admitted they are ill-prepared to deal with the crisis that would follow such an event. Scientists agree that it will happen one day, as it did in 1859 when the Carrington Event caused havoc in telegraph offices. Imagine that now with our everything runs on electricity infrastructure.
Imagine, id you can a life without Intensive care units to keep the critically ill alive, Imagine a life without the conveniences we have become used to.

Big Bunker Studio is an indie game developer team based in Malaysia. The team consists of just two persons: an awards-winning artist and a no-award-winning half-artist-half-programmer hybrid/weirdo.
The next day, we woke up very early in the morning and straight away packing up and prepare for the exciting event!
Must not forget the passes!
After that we toured around the beautiful city and had our breakfast at a hawker stall.
After that we walked for some distance and took MRT trains to reach our destination.
Throughout the 2 days event, we estimated there were more than 800 visitors who stopped at our booth and tried our game. We roughly know the number because all the 500 brochures that we brought to the event were all almost given away within the first day, and we had to reserve some for the next day!
…and the winner for the best play tester award goes to… this guy!
We would like to give a big thank to those who visited our booth and gave valuable feedbacks for us to further improve the game! Thank you!

Rhythm Roulette With Brasstracks
The two man band search for the perfect loops and come up with something golden
Simply put, Brasstracks is "HORNS SYNTHS DRUMS." The duo composed of Ivan (trumpet) and Conor (drums) have been taking dance music to new heights by mixing in analog instruments. The punchy jams give you a full live experience right through your headphones. That's why it's no surprise that they were a part of Chance's Coloring Book by producing "No Problem."
When we took them to Norman's Sound & Vision in Williamsburg, they ended up with Gene McDaniels' 100 Lbs. of Clay!, The 5th Dimension Live!!, and Jack Ü's self-titled album. After they find their initial loop with 5th Dimension's "I Just Want To Be Your Friend," they quickly get to work and bring their idea to life. Then a slow piano progression on Gene's record catches their ears for another beat. No love for Jack Ü this time around.

Vodafone makes advanced video technology consumer friendly with Live! With 3G
Vodafone's innovative marketing campaign for its third-generation technology package, launched last week in Europe and Japan as Live! with 3G, includes a miniseries based on Fox's "24" that customers can watch on their cellphones, and six global commercials.
To introduce the idea of mobile TV content, Vodafone commissioned Twentieth Century Fox to create content inspired by its drama series "24." Starting in January 2005, Vodafone users can view 24 weekly 60-second "mobisodes" of "24: Conspiracy" in a parallel plot featuring characters inspired by the hit TV series.
Other promotions will include trailers and clips of a Movie of the Month starting with "Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason." Users can also view exclusive content from MTV's video diaries.
David Wheldon, Vodafone's global director-marketing and brand communications, said, "the technology allows us to do interesting and dramatic things, so we wanted to reflect that in the marketing."
Six global TV and cinema spots by WPP Group's J. Walter Thompson Co. appeal to customers' emotions. In one spot promoting video calling, a mother and daughter play a bedtime game as the daughter, giggling, mimicks her mother. The camera pulls away to reveal that the mother is away on business while the daughter is with her father at home.
"We're focusing on the heightened series of experiences that the consumer has when using 3G," said Mr. Wheldon.
Another spot shows Vodafone brand icon David Beckham experiencing watching a live game, as if he were really there, and walking through a crowd of fans.

From September through November, a Web-based survey will ask producers across the country for their opinions on such biosecurity and agroterrorism topics.
"Because of 9/11 we now have a couple of new ominous words in our vocabulary – biosecurity and agroterrorism," LSU AgCenter Chancellor William B. Richardson says. "So we in the LSU AgCenter, like many land-grant universities across the country, are trying to develop recommendations for farmers as well as procedures to follow at our own research stations and laboratories."
Experts say the ongoing surveys are designed to gather information from farmers that can help in developing such recommendations and delivering educational services to them.
The survey is being conducted by the Extension Disaster Education Network (EDEN) and is funded by USDA, which partners with land-grant universities across the country in the nationwide Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service.
The survey funding is part of overall efforts to supply homeland security education for farm and non-farm industries and individuals, and the producer survey results will guide what types of educational programs should be offered on agricultural biosecurity.
To take the survey, producers may visit the EDEN Web site at www.agctr.lsu.edu/eden and click on "Homeland Security Surveys," then click on "Survey of Ag and Horticulture Producers." The survey is anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes to complete. It can be completed anywhere producers have access to the World Wide Web, including libraries and Extension Service offices.
"There are factors concerning agriculture that lead experts to disagree about whether or not farming and the food supply are at risk to bioterrorism," says Steve Cain, an EDEN delegate and Purdue University Extension specialist. "Whether or not there is a real threat to the American food supply, even the perceived risk brings up issues that society must deal with."
The EDEN project will help measure agricultural producers' perceptions about biosecurity issues on the farm.
"Since Sept. 11 (2001), the news media have done a credible job of providing information about homeland security," says Cain. "But often that information raises questions and debate that can only be addressed with educational programs."
This producer survey will help Extension staff, nationally and in each state, determine what direction educational programs should take. EDEN specialists will use the information to identify educational materials and make them available to producers.

birthday | 1 apr '00
Hola, I'm Ana. I am having so much fun in this family. I love swimming, playing hide and seek with the others, and helping my Aunt Allison with whatever she is up to. Also, this is the first time I've ever gone to school - even if I am 12 years old. It is hard, but I really like learning about numbers and letters. I don't know how long I will stay here. My amazing 2 year old sister and I were staying at an orphanage, but luckily another ministry got us out of there as my sister was in need of surgery and therapy. The plan is for my sister and I to stay with Aunt Allison until an adoptive family is found for us. My sister is everything to me, and I love caring for her. Because of her treatment, she can't be here at the moment, so I give all of my love to everybody else until we can be together again.

Report: PS4 Slim Will Be $249.99 on Black Friday
Released last month, the slimmer PlayStation 4 model will reportedly be $50 off on Black Friday 2016, which falls on November 25. According to Best Black Friday, eBay has told them that the 500GB PS4 Slim bundle with Uncharted 4: A Thief's End will be $249.99 USD on Black Friday, $50 off the MSRP of $299.99 USD.
During Black Friday 2015, which was extremely successful for Sony, the PS4 bundle with Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection was discounted to $299.99 USD.
It remains to be seen if the PS4 Pro, releasing on November 10 for $399.99 USD, will see any sort of discount or bundle on Black Friday.
Expect Black Friday flyers from the various retailers to begin appearing in a couple of weeks, where we'll know for sure if the PS4 Slim is going down to $250.
What deals are you hoping to see on Black Friday? Do you think the Black Friday PS4 Slim deal will help it reclaim the sales crown from the Xbox One in the United States?

Seymour Lampert, 79, a prominent jeweler and jewelry designer, in 1955 founded Styline Jewelers, a wholesale company, and in 1969, Lampert Jewelers, a retail store in Des Plaines.
A resident of Northbrook, he died Sunday of a heart attack on his way to the hospital.
"He was an innovator in design, a man who worked to give jewelry an upscale feel and who helped make Chicago a center in the jewelry trade," said his grandson David. "Look at examples of things he did 60 years ago and you will see designs being done today, but which were not back then."

Placentia Area Chamber of Commerce (PACC) is aiming to bring youth, seniors and their families together with its fifth annual Placentia Bay Age Friendly Fair and Exhibition.
The President of PACC has stated that the main role of the Age Friendly Fair is to find ways and means of responding to people's needs and promoting healthy aging for them and their families. It will build bridges and partnerships and match the needs of people with products and services available in the Avalon Region market place.
The Avalon Region, like all communities in Canada, is experiencing an aging population. As this segment of our community increases, it is very important that the Placentia Area Chamber of Commerce with its community-based partners support all citizens. The whole Avalon benefits from everyone having an opportunity to participate, making each community a better place for everyone.
For residents of all ages, whether in central or remote communities, the Fair will identify challenges, opportunities, and solutions for seniors, youth, and their families as they age. There will be presentations by a range of businesses and different health organizations who will also be displaying their goods and products relevant to all ages. The first 150 guests will receive a free bag stuffed with lots of goodies.
In addition, the Fair will include a Home and Garden section, Fine Arts and Crafts section, Talent Show, a Traditional Kitchen Cuisine, Seniors Recognition Award, and a session on "Why is it never too late to become an entrepreneur – you're never too old for an Internship or a New Venture". Good health, Good business!
Alongside these events, the PACC will provide opportunities for individuals to exchange ideas and knowledge, as well as sharing information on fitness, medical, health, wellness, recreation, and much more. It supports the Provincial Healthy Aging Policy Framework, built on the principles of dignity, self-fulfilment, social inclusion, independence, safety and security, and fairness.
As far as we are aware, this event is the only one of its kind in the province. The Age Friendly Fair is multi-generational, focusing on both the seniors and youth of their communities, recognizing the value of all age groups and how they can assist each other! "We hope by actively bringing people together, it will motivate new ideas that make our communities a better place for all". The Age Friendly Fair and Exhibition will continue to play an important role in ensuring the existence of an age-friendly community.
For further information regarding the Fair & Exhibition and how you can get involved, call the Placentia Chamber office at 709 227 0003 and ask to speak to our Executive Director, Gene Collins or Project Coordinator, Winnie Barry.

The 'Art' of War
Nothing in fashion evokes such vivid masculine prowess quite like camo print. Perhaps it's in our DNA – some sort of cellular memory from our hunter-gatherer days – that attracts us to camouflage. Perhaps even a deep psychological yearning to return to our primitive roots and feel, once again, a sacred bond with the wild. In any case, camo-print is not just some arbitrary or derivative fashion fad. Camouflage is second to human nature and is one of the oldest, most frequently recurring fashion statements in history.
Early civilisations used animal furs, clays and natural dyes to disguise themselves for the hunt or to protect themselves from natural predators. In a way, humans prefer to blend, to be one with the pack. In fact, human survival has always hinged on our ability to do so. Strangely, this idea didn't filter through to organised warfare until the late 1800s. Before that, military uniforms were made using bright colours to help identify teams or to aid visibility in smoky war conditions. Clearly, it wasn't a very good idea.
It was only in 1857 that Brittish troops in India were forced (for the sake of survival) to dye their white uniforms 'khak' colours. This was not a comment on the quality of the hue, but rather the Hindi-Urdu word for 'dust', which is where the word 'khaki' comes from. During the 2nd Boer war, khaki become an official standard of British military fashion, which in time would transform into what is possibly one of the greatest and most functional fashion trends in human history. For those proudly South African readers, might I reiterate that this happened on South African soil?
Camouflage draws direct inspiration from nature: Insects that mimic leaves or branches, rabbits that blend with their surroundings, zebras that dazzle their predators by diminishing their ability to judge exact speed or distance. The list is endless. In 1896 American artist Abbot Thayer wrote an article describing nature as an artist who used graduated tones to help disguise animals in their natural environment: 'The spectator sees right through the space really occupied by an opaque animal'.
Thayer even tried to pursuade the US government of the late 1890s to adopt camouflage in aid of naval tactics during the Spanish American war, but thanks to strong protests from former president Theodore Roosevelt, he failed to do so.
It was only in 1909 that his book, Concealing Coloration in the animal kingdom, became standard reading material for the US military, thus giving rise to a sudden and unexpected collaboration between the worlds of war and art. During the Great War, camouflage uniforms were widely used in a variety of colours, prints and styles including the most popular and famous universal 'woodland' theme.
Cubist, rennaisance trompe l'oeil (fool the eye) and surrealist art were major influences on Thayer's work. Picasso even spoke about the benefits of art and camouflage in the military. In 1917, marine painter lieutenant commander Norman Wilkinson invented the 'dazzle print' which was the first form of variegated camouflage intended to confuse, rather than blend or mimic.
In post war times, French couturiers used iconic camo-prints in their designs as a symbol of modernity, while the British were famed for hosting 'dazzle balls' where men and women dressed in bright and confusing prints.
Some of the basic tenets of camouflage entered everyday fashion as early as 1927 when Louise Weinberg introduced a design philosophy based on colour usage, all-over-print, lines and silhouette to alter the appearance of the body in favour of a more flattering silhouette.
In 1929, the Italians were the first country to mass-produce printed (as opposed to painted) military camo-fabric called 'telo-mimetico' or mimetic cloth. However, the first official military camo-print only appeared in popular fashion in April of 1944 with pin-up girl Chili Williams. Camo only became a popular staple in the '70s when hunting enthusiast Jim Crumley used magic marker on tie-dye for his hunting gear, setting off a sartorial chain reaction that would later filter through to regular retail fashion.
In time, camouflage became increasingly varied as more and more types were invented: plain navy, cold war, chocolate chip cookie dough, and scrambled egg prints, to name a few. In 1986, designer Stephen Sprouse (co-inventor of the Louis Vuitton graffiti bag) used an Andy Warhol camo-print in his spring and autumn collections. Though camo-print was popular in street fashion during the '80s, it only truly entered the realm of high fashion in subsequent years when John Galliano, Nicole Miller, Marc Jacobs and Comme Des Garcons introduced couture ranges featuring camo-print.
Already spring and winter men's collections of 2011 have brought military silhouettes from John Galliano through to Anne Demeulemeester, along with some more toned-down, earthy colour palettes. Even navy blue stuck out as a powerful winter colour with designers like Dries Van Noten. Camo-print, the slightly bolder sibling, is bound to make another appearance very soon, as it is a regular staple that will continue to reemerge in both women's and men's fashion.
In many senses, our obsession with camouflage or colours that blend into the environment, speaks volumes of an awareness of our planet's environmental crisis, and the longing to return to a simpler cleaner earth. Perhaps a new camo-print is exactly what men's fashion needs right now? If not to make a stylish statement, at least to remind us of our basic instincts.

Netizens praise boyfriend who carries girlfriend on his shoulders at the zoo
Sometimes it's the simple things that get the most attention. A photo of a boyfriend carrying his girlfriend on his shoulders at the Jinan City Zoo has caught the attention of netizens who have given the picture a ton of praise.
As you can see from the picture, the zoo looked extremely crowded that day, which probably made it difficult to see certain exhibits. So the very considerate boyfriend who's featured in the photo hoisted his girlfriend on his shoulders, giving her the perfect view of the zoo's grounds.
After seeing this image, many netizens applauded the generous move, with some even calling him the "Best boyfriend in China." Of course there were some detractors, as there always tend to be in any comments section. One commenter said, "Let her ride once on your shoulders, and she'll take advantage of you for the rest of your life, never to escape."
Watch Lee Je Hoon bring the tragic true story of Crown Prince Sado to life in historical drama Secret Door
Even if some people criticize, it doesn't change the fact that carrying your girlfriend on your shoulders is still a very nice gesture.
This panda at the Jinan City Zoo is probably thinking, "Hey can someone carry me like that?"

The family of two young boys killed in an apparent-murder suicide said Thursday they want to know why the boys' grandmother, with an apparent history of mental health problems, had access to the revolver used in the shooting.
HARTFORD, Conn. | The family of two young boys killed in an apparent-murder suicide — and state police — said Thursday they want to know why the boys' grandmother, with an apparent history of mental health problems, had access to the revolver used in the shooting.
The shooting has added urgency to a legislative review of access to guns that is already under way in Connecticut, where a troubled 20-year-old man gunned down 26 people, including 20 first-graders, on the opposite side of the state at a Newtown school Dec. 14.
The two boys' grandmother, 47-year-old Debra Denison, was supposed to take them from a day care to a birthday party Tuesday but instead drove to a nearby lake where she and the children were found shot to death after a frantic search. Police said the gun had been taken from her home, and one relative said it apparently belonged to Denison's husband.
"It was in the house, which is hard to believe," said Marcia White, a paternal great-grandmother of the boys, who said Denison's struggles with mental health were well-known to the family.
State Sen. Toni Harp, a member of the General Assembly task force charged with formulating a response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, said there appeared to be striking parallels to the Newtown tragedy, including the slaying of children and gun violence by people without permits to carry weapons.
She said her working group on mental health has endorsed changing the gun-permitting process to ask about people in the household with mental illness and lay out responsibilities for owners to keep guns away from them.
"The problem is, often family members have guns in their home that are not secure, and they assume people in the home will not violate their property and use them," said Harp, a Democrat. "But we hear more and more about people taking guns that don't belong to them and doing great harm with them."
Harp said there is concern about stigmatizing people with behavioral health issues, who experts say are no more violent that others, and the legislature has to walk a fine line in taking steps to prevent future tragedies.
Several family members said Denison, the boys' maternal grandmother, had long struggled with her mental health. Robert White, the boys' great-uncle, said at a news conference Thursday that Denison had a mental disorder but appeared to have improved in recent months.
Denison had a 13-year-year-old son who wasn't with her Tuesday afternoon and was apparently unharmed. In Denison's suicide note, she said in part that God was watching over him Tuesday, White said. What exactly she meant, and her motive for the killings, is still unclear.
Denison also had a 27-year-old son, Christopher Allen, who is in prison serving a 32-year sentence for felony murder. Allen stabbed a man to death on a boat in Mystic in 2008 as he and a co-defendant boarded the vessel to steal money and drugs.
After leaving a suicide note, Denison drove alone Tuesday to the day care center in North Stonington, where she picked up 2-year-old Alton Perry and 6-month-old Ashton Perry. It was Alton's birthday.
The staff at the day care said Denison was on the list of people authorized to collect the children, and nothing seemed amiss — the grandmother was friendly and talkative as she loaded the children in her van.
The bodies of Denison and the children were found several hours later.

In the state of California, convicted sex offenders and high-risk gang members are monitored with GPS tracking systems when they get out of prison on parole. But parole officers have become over-burdened and claim that there are too many parolees to keep track of.
California has come up with a viable solution. The state has decided to hire a private company to take over some of the work. The Department of Corrections is hiring the companies that provide the GPS tracking
systems to also monitor and screen the alerts. They will send only the high priority problems to parole officers.
The problem is, according to a recent AP report, parole agents spend 44% of their time reviewing GPS tracking alerts. That compares to only 12% of their time out in the field, which is where they should be.
One of the challenges with monitoring parolees with GPS tracking systems is that the devices often send out false alarms. For example, alerts can be triggered when the battery starts to get low or the GPS tracking device goes out of range… much like a cell phone, when you lose a signal.
Terry Thornton, a spokeswoman for the Department of Corrections, told Fox News, "When you have 24-7 screening of alerts… a parole agent can't stay up 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A monitoring center can."
The CA Dept. of Corrections' pilot program will start this summer. If it is successful, the program will be continued, as long as it makes financial sense.

When the tires on their Dodge Caravan had worn so thin that the steel belts were showing through, Don and Florence Cherry couldn't afford to buy a new set.
So they decided to rent instead.
The Rich Square, N.C., couple last September agreed to pay Rent-N-Roll $54.60 a month for 18 months in exchange for four basic Hankook tires. Over the life of the deal, that works out to $982, almost triple what the radials would have cost at Wal-Mart.
"I know you have to pay a lot more this way," said Florence Cherry, a 57-year-old nurse who drives the 15-year-old van when her husband, a Vietnam veteran, isn't using it to get to his job as a prison guard. "But we didn't really have a choice."
Socked by soaring tire prices and short on funds, growing numbers of Americans are renting the rubber to keep their cars rolling.

Jean Arp was one of the most vigorously original of twentieth-century European sculptors. This work was first conceived as a small plaster study in the 1930s and belongs to the biomorphic sculptural forms the artist termed "concretions." It was realized in marble in 1953 after dealer Curt Valentin saw the study in Arp's studio and requested that the artist enlarge it. Arp had traveled to Italy the previous year, and the forms and choice of medium in this work reflect the influence of sculpture of the classical world. Torso, lacking a head or limbs, may also refer to the fragmentary state of many of the sculptures surviving from antiquity. However, the softly curving, biomorphic shape of Torso is, as one writer has described it, "complete in its omissions."
