Happy Easter, to those who celebrate! And to those who don't, Happy Regular Sunday! I have a little post today, not at all to do with Easter. Oh well, on with the show.
I took part in a Photo Shoot on Friday, so you can definitely expect to see them soon. I can't give any specific date, but hopefully next week! I promise, the photos shall be worth the wait! Hang in there.
I took this photograph at the Fashion Show I was invited to. A lot of people, including me, focused entirely on the models that were strutting through the streets of Galway City. For me, I found the time to photograph the amazing musicians that lead the fashion show. Within their group, there were two exceptionally talented saxophone players, a lively drum player, a gifted trumpet player, and clarinet player. Their music was incredible. It echoed throughout the streets, causing heads to turn, and smiles to appear. I wish I knew who they were, as they were so talented. I want to hear their energetic music again. I honestly have no idea how they walked for that long, and still managed to play each instrument. They were beyond talented, they were magical.
I know the whole focus of the day was intended to be on the models (and believe me, I have hundreds of photos of every model to prove it), but I couldn't ignore the glorious music that was emanating from these magnificent artists. Two men were playing saxophones, and that is my absolute favourite instrument to listen to. I admit, I cannot and will not play the saxophone, but it's the most heavenly thing to listen to. One guy in particular, the fellow playing the drums whom is pictured above, was in his element. It was quite evident. I was in my element capturing his abundant character and genuine smile. Artists have a certain unique spirit, that is present in photographs. They feel the beat, they feel the rhythm. The beat of the drum echoed in my ears the entire walk.
Hearing music live, rather than through headphones via your phone, MP3 player, Cassette player, or Ipod, is an incredible thing that should be cherished. The experience itself can transcend through crowds and cause a stir. If you hear music as you walk through the streets, you won't ignore it. You'll either smile your approval, or bop your head in time with the catchy beat. Or, if you're like me, photograph the musicians to your hearts content (and not bang into people in the process). Music is a truly magical form of art. It connects to your mind, body, and soul. Without music blaring in your ears, life would be dull and hold no meaning. Think about it, what would you do if music didn't exist? How would we cope, how would we survive without a tune? It's a peculiar thought. For a variety of people, music is medicine that heals their tattered soul. Music mends the mind, distracts those who cannot cope with what life has to offer. Simply placing headphones atop your head, is a form of therapy. It's unusual how connected we humans feel to music. Music is a gift from the heavens.
I think at this point I will try to photograph more musicians or any sort of artist, and capture them whilst they're performing, whilst they are in tune with themselves, whist they are in their element. Those photos would speak volumes. It's a purely joyful experience, to watch a musician perform.
So, enough of this artsy fartsy tangent, and on with the day. I hope for those whom are celebrating this Easter Sunday, are delving into a plentiful amount of Easter eggs. And for those whom are not celebrating, I advise you to delve into whatever suits your fancy. It's Sunday, after all; Chocolate is a must.
'The Artist sees what others only catch glimpse of.'

Kelis is expecting her second baby.
The 'Milkshake' hitmaker was spotted with what seemed to be a small baby bump at the weekend performance.
Sources close to Kelis told E! News: "She is really excited about her pregnancy. She has a great support system from her family and friends. She is in really amazing spirits."
The pregnancy rumor began after Kelis performed at the Afropunk Festival in Brooklyn, New York over the weekend wearing a loose-fitting pink dress that highlighted a small baby bump.
The baby will be the 36-year-old's second child. She welcomed her first child, a son named Knight, in 2009 with then-husband Nas. The couple got divorce in 2010.

Certified Organic and Kosher Jerusalem Artichoke Inulin Powder - 90% Inulin
Organic JA (Jerusalem Artichoke) Inulin
Product information
JA Inulin is a prebiotic soluble dietary fiber with texturizing properties. It has a neutral to sweet taste profile and provides value-added health benefits.
JA Inulin is extracted from Jerusalem Artichokes. It is a white, odorless, soluble powder with a slightly sweet taste and no aftertaste. It contains a mixture of oligo- and polysaccharides which are composed of fructose units connected by β (2-1) links. Almost every molecule is terminated by a glucose unit. The total number of fructose or glucose units (Degree of polymerization, or DP) of JA inulin ranges mainly between 2 and 60.
Nutritional BenefitsBesides its functional properties, JA Inulin also has a great number of nutritional properties that deliver health benefits and in particular contribute to:
Intestinal health based on Weight Management based on - Dietary fiber properties - Low caloric Value - Prebiotic effect - Enhanced satiety - Increased immune resistance - Low glycemic index
Bone Health based on Heart Health based on - Improved calcium absorption - Lowering of blood lipid concentration
Opportunities for the food industry: The health benefits of JA Inulin provide numerous opportunities to develop functional foods in various sectors such as dairy, bakery, beverage, cereals and cereal bars, supplements, confectionary, ice cream, infant formulas, fat spreads, etc.
Intestinal HealthJA inulin cannot be digested by the digestive enzymes nor broken down by the gastric acids in the human digestive system. Therefore, these non-digestible carbohydrates function as insoluble dietary fibers.
In general, dietary fibers influence the consistency of stomach and bowel content, the rate of discharge from the stomach and intestines and thus the rate at which nutrients and other desirable and/or undesirable substances are absorbed. Furthermore they have a great effect on our bowel movements. This makes dietary fibers an essential part of our daily menu. However in most affluent societies and average adult eats only 15 - 20 grams per day, where the recommendation is actually 30 grams per day, or more. Incorporation of inulin in food and beverages helps to up the daily fiber intake and stimulates the digestive system. Moreover, JA inulin is made up of prebiotic dietary fibers. In the large intestine this inulin is fermented by the friendly bacteria that are naturally present in the colon's microflora (the community of microorganisms present in the colon).
The friendly bifidobacteria and lactobacilli are selectively stimulated at the expense of potentially harmful bacteria. As a result, the friendly bacteria multiply and, at the same time, potential pathogenic bacteria (such as clostridia and E. coli) are significantly reduced in numbers. This is known as the prebiotic or bifidogenic effect, and results in a healthier colon flora. This in turn generates several health benefits for the consumer, such as: - Improved bowel movement - Lowered blood triglycerides - Enhanced mineral bio-availability - Increased immune resistance The increased immune resistance may be an effect of the stimulation of the immune system by the increased number of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in combination with enhanced colonization resistance.
Weight Management
As described earlier, JA inulin is composed of the type of carbohydrates which are not digested in the human digestive system, but instead are fermented in the large intestine. Hence, they do not deliver the full caloric content of digestible carbohydrates, nor do they have an impact on blood glucose levels. The caloric value is only 2 kcal/g and this is based on the metabolism of the fermentation products that are absorbed from the colon. By using inulin as a sweetness enhancer and a fat replacer it is possible to create products with a lower caloric content and lower glycemic index values without compromising taste and texture.
Diets rich in sugar and starch (simple carbohydrates) digest into sugars (glucose) and consequently raise blood sugar levels. This, in turn, activates the hormone insulin in the body which burns the glucose in the muscles or stores the excess as fat. The blood sugar level declines and signals hunger; restarting the process again. Overeating and weight gain are the result.
JA Inulin lowers the glycemic load of food, which leads to less production of inulin and thus it supports people in their aim to control and manage their weight. Diabetics also benefit from more stable blood sugar levels, making inulin an excellent ingredient for diabetic products.
Functional BenefitsBesides the nutritional properties that deliver health benefits, JA Inulin also has a great number of functional properties: - Sugar replacer - Taste enhancer - Fat replacer - Texturizer / mouth feel improvement - Low calorific value - Solubility
Sweetness enhancer
In addition to providing sweetness, sugar acts as a bulking agent in many foods, improving the mouth feel, texture and stability of the end product. JA Inulin, in combination with bulk or intensive sweeteners, is a very useful and viable sweetness enhancer in most foods. Our JA inulin has a sweetness level in the range of 40-50% of the sweetness of sucrose (sugar).
Fat replacerThe remarkable rheological properties of inulin make JA Inulin an effective fat substitute in many foods. In combination with hydrocolloids, excellent formulations can be created to reduce fat content in fat spreads, dressings, dairy, and bakery products.
Low caloric valueFermentation products such as short chain fatty acids and lactic acid produced during the conversion of inulin by the colonic microbiota are partly absorbed by the human body. This provides the body with a modest quantity of energy, namely 2 kcal per gram of inulin.
Taste EnhancerSensory tests have shown that JA inulin is able to mask the after-tastes of most high intensity sweeteners, such as stevia extracts and others.
Texturiser JA inulin is very suitable for application in low-calorie foods. The high texturizing properties of this product gives foods an improved mouth feel. Texture plays a very important role in dairy products e.g. yogurt, fermented milk drinks and deserts. In addition, JA Inulin can be a key ingredient in the formulation of low calorie snacks, giving a creamy mouth feel to biscuit fillings and a smooth chewy texture to cereal bars.
Good SolubilityJA Inulin has excellent solubility, high stability and dispersability. It is the perfect source of prebiotic soluble fiber for fortified clear beverages or for homogeneous smooth liquid dairy products, or any other liquid applications where a value-added, low caloric, soluble prebiotic fiber can be an attractive addition to a product.
Application OpportunitiesJA Inulin has unique texture modifying characteristics, which can improve the rheological and textural properties of food. Its capability to form a gel and neutral, sweet taste make inulin an effective fat substitute or sweetness enhancer in a wide range of products.
Besides its technological properties, JA Inulin also contributes from a nutritional perspective, being a prebiotic dietary fiber. Its high solubility, neutral taste, color and versatility make it an ideal ingredient for a wide range of applications: - In dairy products - In beverages - In bakery products - In cream and ice cream - In cereals and cereal bars - In soups and other packaged foods
JA Inulin can also be applied in a wide array of other applications, such as: - Meat products (improved moisture-binding). - Stable low fat or no-fat margarine and spreads. - Sauces and desserts (optimized flow behavior). - Confectionary (sugar reduction / replacement).
FAQ's - Is there a maximum daily intake for inulin? There is no ADI (acceptable daily intake) for inulin. This means that the government has not set a maxim for inulin consumption. It is estimated that 15-20 g of inulin per day for adults may be a suitable guideline.
- Is inulin suitable for diabetics? Inulin is a complex carbohydrate that does not increase the glucose content of blood. It is therefore very suitable for diabetics.
- How many grams of inulin per day create a prebiotic effect? Scientific research has shown that a daily intake of 5 grams of inulin or fructooligosaccharides significantly increases "positive gut bacteria" (bifidobacteria and lactobacilli).
- What are the similarities and differences between probiotics, prebiotocs, and synbiotics? -Probiotics are living micro-organisms, usually lactobacilli, that reside in the large intestine and have a favorable effect on the intestinal microbiota. -Prebiotics are components that are fermented by naturally occurring intestinal bacteria in the gut and have a positive effect on the composition of the colonic microbiota.-Synbiotics contain both pre- and probiotic components.
- What are the similarities and differences between fructans, inulin and fructooligosaccharides? -Fructan is the group name of a number of fructose polymers (often with a terminal glucose molecule). -Inulin is a member of the fructan family and is characterized by the β(2→1) bond between the fructose units. The length of the inulin molecules depends on the vegetable from which the inulin is extracted. The chain length of inulin derived from Jerusalem Artichoke varies from 2 to 60 fructose units. -Inulin variants that consist mainly of shorter chains (generally up to 20 fructose units) are known as fructooligosaccharides. - Is inulin stable during heating or in an acidic environment? Inulin is highly stable when heated, even to the high temperatures used for sterilization. At pH values below 3.7 there is a risk of inulin partially hydrolyzing. The degree of hydrolysis depends on time, temperature, product composition and pH.
- Is inulin soluble? Inulin is soluble in water and therefore quite suitable for use in many food products.

Among stock markets, Japan's Nikkei was up 2.3 by the break, while Hong Kong added 0.9 percent and Shanghai gained 0.7 percent.
Adding to the buying sentiment was a better-than expected reading on Chinese factory output that provided fresh hope the world's number two economy was stabilising after years of slowing growth.
The OPEC exporters' group, meeting in Vienna, said its 14 members had agreed on specific targets that will reduce production by 1.2 million barrels a day from next month, while key non-member Russia also committed to a reduction.
Both main contracts surged on the announcement, which ended weeks of uncertainty and volatility on crude markets as the key players bickered over who would shoulder the biggest burden of the cuts, leading to worries a deal would not be made.
And while both Brent and West Texas Intermediate edged down slightly in early Asian trade, regional investors poured back into energy firms on hopes the higher prices would boost revenues.
"The words 'OPEC' and 'exceed expectations' have rarely, if ever, been used in the same sentence. However yesterday?s production deal seems to have done just that," Jeffrey Halley, senior market analyst at OANDA, said in a note.
"Cuts have been shared across all members, including the recalcitrant Iran and Iraq."
Regarding the dip in oil prices Thursday, Halley added: "I think the market in Asia is just catching its breath after last night's moves."
Still, the deal lit a fire under energy firms. Tokyo-listed Inpex was the big gainer, piling on more than 11 percent in the morning session, while Woodside Petroleum soared six percent. CNOOC ploughed more than seven percent higher in Hong Kong and PetroChina 5.5 percent.
Among stock markets, Japan's Nikkei was up 2.3 by the break, while Hong Kong added 0.9 percent and Shanghai gained 0.7 percent.
Sydney gained 0.6 percent, Seoul 0.1 percent and Manila two percent. There were also healthy advances in Singapore, Jakarta, Taipei and Wellington.
The removal of uncertainty provided fresh support to the dollar, which rallied towards 115 yen, its highest mark since February, before easing back slightly. And gold suffered a sell-off, sinking 1.7 percent to $1,167 as investors walked away from safe-haven assets that are popular in times of uncertainty.
In China, official figures showed a gauge of manufacturing activity had hit its highest level since mid-2014, although analysts pointed out the reading was a mixed blessing.
"Underlying data shows that this is pretty clearly heavy-industry driven, with help from credit and little contribution from consumption," Christopher Balding, an associate professor at the HSBC School of Business at Peking University in Shenzhen, told Bloomberg News.
"While this may prop up growth in the short term, it is clearly not rebalancing or deleveraging."
And Raymond Yeung, chief greater China economist at Australia & New Zealand Banking Group in Hong Kong, warned: "With this growth momentum, the (central bank) doesn't need to ease."
Focus now turns to the release Friday of US jobs data. With dealers certain the Federal Reserve will hike interest rates this month, the latest figures could provide some insight into its plans for future increases over the next year.
Tokyo - Nikkei 225: UP 2.3 percent at 18,722.38 (break)
Hong Kong - Hang Seng: UP 0.9 percent at 22,982.96
Shanghai - Composite: UP 0.7 percent at 3,272.72
Euro/dollar: UP at $1.0596 from $1.0590 Wednesday
Dollar/yen: UP at 114.50 yen from 114.49 yen
Pound/dollar: UP at $1.2518 from $1.2507
Oil - West Texas Intermediate: DOWN 25 cents at $49.19 per barrel
Oil - Brent (new contract for February): DOWN 18 cents at $49.66 per barrel
New York - Dow: UP less than 0.1 percent at 19,123.58 (close)
London - FTSE 100: UP 0.2 percent at 6,783.79 (close)

A discussion of Christianity from a confessional Lutheran and humanitarian activist perspective, peppered with updates from my ray tracing computer graphics, usually using POV-Ray (povray) 3.5 or blender. Lately however I've been blogging about my frustrations and triumphs in setting up linux on my hobby PC's.


text: Okay, so, I've got Windows XP running on my Mac. In fact, I use Windows XP on my Mac more than I use Mac OS X, heh. It has run flawlessly over the past 6 months, but now it randomly doesn't. Anyways, I boot up Windows XP and it prompts me to either: - Boot in Safe Mode - Boot in Safe Mode with Networking - Boot Last Known Good Configuration - Boot Windows Normally I've chosen all of them at least once. The only results I've gotten is a quick flash of a blue screen and then the Mac restarts and boots up Mac OS X (I have Mac OS X to boot up default when computer first turns on). Has anyone experienced this problem? Is my Windows partitioned hard drive fucked? What do uh do?

Guide to the Concept: Identity.
Goldman, Ralph M.
This draft outline presents and organizes for teachers one of the fundamental concepts in war/peace studies: identity. Identity is viewed as the relationship between a person's self-role and other socio-political roles learned and valued by him in the course of his psychological development. A rationale section points up the relationship of the concepts identity and self to a war/peace curriculum, the objective of such a curriculum being to identify for the child those roles that seem most relevant to an understanding of conflict and order, and to do so in a way that encourages the child to place these roles high in the hierarchy of his own role-structure. A number of affective and cognitive objectives for a study of the concept of identity are enumerated, and a method of testing for shifts in attitudes is suggested. A general discussion of role-theory follows, indicating how some of the research findings may be adapted to classroom use. A short, suggestive listing of social and political roles appropriate to the war/peace field is given, divided according to appropriate grade levels. Methods for helping the student grasp the place and prospect of these roles in his own life are indicated. Two subconcepts, position and personality, are also provided, with a definition, rationale, and objectives for each. An accompanying draft document summarizes the instructional objectives and idea outline for the concept identity. Related documents are: SO 001 511, SO 001 513, and SO 002 078. (Author/JLB)

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 115429
pthreads fork and memory allocation (calloc etc) deadlock
Last modified: 2016-11-24 10:20:26 EST
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113
Description of problem:
Due to a problem in another application wrote a simple test program
that creates a number of threads which repeatedly call calloc, malloc,
and fork. (m/c/re)alloc via sbrk has been disabled by mmaping at the
end of brk for the purpose of simulating the real application.
Will attach "threadforks.c", compile with "gcc -g -lpthread -o
threadforks threadforks.c".
Running the program without any options will dead-lock.
Will attach appropriate gdb backtraces.
Thread 4: attempting to fork calls "ptmalloc_lock_all" and is holding
the "list_lock" and trying to obtain "main_arena.mutex" lock.
Thread 3: attempting to calloc, using sbrk fails, locks
"main_arena.mutex" and calls arena_get2 which in turn attempts to lock
Obviously a race condition, but quite reproduceable.
Seems that avoiding "brk" data segment is a work-around.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a number of threads.
2. Let each thread call calloc and fork.
Will attach "threadforks.c", compile with "gcc -g -lpthread -o
threadforks threadforks.c".
Run while [ 1 ]; do ./testforks; done
Actual Results: Dead-locks
Expected Results: Program should run to completion

gdb backtraces - see thread 3 & 4

You cannot do that in a threaded program.
See http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/fork.html
If a multi-threaded process calls fork(), the new process shall
contain a replica of the calling thread and its entire address space,
other resources. Consequently, to avoid errors, the child process may

calloc is certainly not async-signal safe function, see
Argh, end lines stripped off during mid-air collision, sorry.
If a multi-threaded process calls fork(), the new process shall

Update so child only exits
Update so child only exits
Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems like the internal malloc_atfork
hook is installed too late ?
Attached updated version of reproducer. Still dead-locks without child
process behaving badly.
So the alternative is that we suspend all other threads before
entering fork ?
So I'm just making sure this problem is clear:
The updated reproducer "Update so child only exits" contains perfectly
"legal" code. The test still hangs, due to a dead-lock between
ptmalloc_lock_all and calloc.
The forking thread has yet to even enter the fork system call (only
one thread can: pthread_atfork_lock), whilst a thread already inside
the calloc implementation dead-locks with ptmalloc_lock_all.
I could suggest that the order of operations (lock acquisition and
atfork hook switching to malloc_atfork) in ptmalloc_lock_all are the
cause ???
I assume ptmalloc_lockall/malloc_atfork mechanism is intended as a
locking protocol to ensure that the malloc system can be placed into
an "initialized state" for the new child process, locking out all
other threads to protect the childs view of it's copy-on-write memory.
If you run threadforks in gdb you will find that it is possible this
mechanism to dead-lock with threads already in the calloc implementation.
Does all this happens with newer releases (RHEL3/4), too? The AS2.1 code is
modified only for critical problems and security issues. The fork() handling in
LinuxThreads has always been buggy because of the broken foundation. This is
why there is NPTL now.
I'm going to close this as WONTFIX unless I hear a good argument why not.

Thread 5 is inside a fork(), thread 1 is inside a malloc(), and are deadlocked.
It happened (and happens) on RHEL3 update 4. Do I have to use a library
different from pthread?
It seems that the deadlock seen on RHEL 3 (comment #10) is related to a block of
dynamically allocated memory which was freed twice in my own code. Fixing this
bug I have never had deadlocks anymore, so please do not take into account my
previous comment.

[Euobserver] EU defends final Acta text on counterfeiting
EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - Final negotiations for a controversial Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (Acta) have been completed in Tokyo, with EU sources insisting that the draft accord will not restrict the freedoms of EU citizens or require legislative changes.
Wednesday's final text includes chapters on 'civil enforcement', 'border measures' and 'enforcement of intellectual property rights in the digital environment', sparking fears earlier this year that the Acta legal framework could result in large scale monitoring of internet users.
Some critics were still sceptical about the final text, however. "Whatever happens, it's still circumvention of the democratic process," Jérémie Zimmermann, the co-founder of the French digital rights group La Quadrature du Net, told the technology website ZDNet UK.

The term "Project Fear" has been used in British politics, including before, during and after the 2016 UK referendum on EU membership by those campaigning to leave the European Union. It denotes the alleged scaremongering and pessimism employed by those in favour of remaining in the EU.[1] The phrase was coined by Rob Shorthouse, who was the "Better Together" campaign's director of communications during the Scottish independence referendum, and was later used by 'remain' supporters in the buildup to the "Britain Stronger In Europe" campaign during the EU membership referendum campaign.[2][3][4][5]
In a famous Oxford Union debate, Eurosceptic Labour MP Peter Shore referred to the use of fear as a campaigning tactic by the "Yes" side in the UK's European Communities referendum of 1975.[6]
The phrase "Project Fear" was coined by Rob Shorthouse, who was the "Better Together" campaign's director of communications during the Scottish independence referendum.[7][8][9]
On 23 June 2013, in an article marking the campaign's first anniversary, the Sunday Herald claimed that "Privately, some inside Better Together even refer to the organisation as Project Fear".[10] The name "Project Fear" subsequently appeared in other news outlets[11][12] and was co-opted by pro-independence campaigners.[13] The following line of the Sunday Herald's article said that "[Blair] McDougall is unrepentant about the tactics", but on the following day's edition of Scotland Tonight McDougall denied ever hearing anyone use the term "Project Fear".[14]
The former Mayor of London and key figurehead of the Leave campaign Boris Johnson argued that the pro-EU campaign in the 2016 EU referendum campaign was guilty of scaremongering, saying that "the agents of Project Fear" were trying to "spook" the British public into voting against British withdrawal from the EU, adding that "I am ever more convinced that the real risk is to sit back and do nothing, to remain inertly and complacently in an unreformed EU that is hell-bent on a federal project over which we have no control."[15] The phrase was quickly picked up by the British media,[16] who in September 2016 reported that ignoring the scaremongering had rewarded those with the insight to ignore the pessimism perpetuated by 'Project Fear' proponents after the FTSE250 broke all records in the months following the referendum to leave the EU.[17]
The phrase was also used by those who were in favour of Britain remaining within the European Union,[18] Labour Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell said that "The EU referendum is about our future relationship with Europe, not who is the next leader of the Tory Party ... the Labour leadership will not go anywhere near the Tories' 'project fear' campaign on both sides of the debate. But instead we will continue to set out the positive case to 'Remain and Reform' the EU to create 'Another Europe' ... Another Europe is not just possible but urgently and vitally needed, which is why we must reject the offer of a Tory Brexit.".[19]
However, others have opposed the label. Alistair Darling says that "Project Fear? In fact, it is a reality check. The kind anyone would take before making such an enormous decision in their lives. So when Iain Duncan Smith claimed if we stay in the EU terrorists would find it easier to get into the UK, we are right to call him out."[15][20] David Cameron rejected any allegations of fear-mongering, saying that "The only project I'm interested in is Project Fact. Project Fact is about saying: 'Stay in and you know what you'll get.'"[21] Others, such as the mayor of London Sadiq Khan, have also pointed out that the Leave side were in fact scaremongering with false claims of imminent Turkish accession to the EU.[22]

DATES AND TIMES Aug 9 – 3:00PM Aug 9 – 8:30PM Aug 10 & Read more [...]
Artpark Percussion Garden
Event Category: Live Music
1PM – 3PM: Creative Soundmaking with Found Environmental Materials and Instruments.
Featuring new work by Colin Tucker for untrained and trained soundmakers with electric guitar, found environmental materials, and speakers.
4pm [part of Music in the Woods]: Re-creation of PLACE, part 10, by David Dunn for instruments and found environmental materials with a talk celebrating the release of Null Point's guest edited issue of Sound American on the music of David Dunn. Performed by Null Point artists.
This free program cultivates community through collective soundmaking and listening, featuring workshops, performances, installations, soundwalks, and open rehearsals.
Over the course of five Sunday afternoons, the programs explore a variety of ways to grow sonic languages organically out of Artpark's existing soundscape and landscape. Each week's program will consist of two parts: a laboratory where the public can observe Null Point's artists at work in rehearsal and installation, and a workshop aimed at introducing the general public to place-based soundmaking and listening.
The program features four new works by Null Point's own composer-performers, commissioned by Artpark specifically for the occasion; scores and documentation of these pieces will be published in a future.
These works explore ways of building musical languages from the ground up in dialogue with Artpark's soundscape and landscape. As such they are both cutting edge and accessible—they reimagine what music is, but do so through interchange with the familiar everyday sounds and materials of Artpark, and through interactive and participatory strategies. Music is remade into something radically new, and yet at the same time opens itself to concrete input from the everyday events of a place. Building on the site-specific sculpture residency program of Artpark's early days, this program situates art as a way to heighten collective connections to a place. These works foster intensely interdisciplinary intersections between music (experimental, rock, classical, electronic), sound art, meditation, sculpture in the expanded field, social practice art, critical pedagogy, and creative placemaking.

Turning up dirt
H. Dean decided that the kidlins needed to have some fresh dirt. So he went and got the tiller. Of course this was a big attraction. I love how the boys are just fascinated with equipment. Now they all know that if they want to watch they have to stay at a safe place. They stayed there until he was done. But after that the dirt box was busy once again with little kidlins.

When it comes to beauty for the everyday girl, Team MDC has you covered in spades. But even the most bona fide beauty experts can use a little inspiration straight from the runway. Our friends at Beautystreams specialize in breaking down the latest trends in high fashion so that you can make the look work for you, catwalk optional.
Bang! Pow! Kaboom! Andy Warhol's Factory girls are back on the scene. They're youthful, flirty, and fun!
Hedi Slimane's Fall 2014 collection for Saint Laurent is at the epicenter of this modern youthquake. The aftershocks can be felt in '60s style A-line shift dresses, capes, and micro-miniskirts. Like Warhol's iconic serial silk-screen printing images, the models all sport different hair colors with long and center-parted styles.
To achieve the look, start with smooth, matte foundation. A dusting of pink blush over the full cheek lends a fresh, somewhat innocent quality. Lush, spidery lashes are accentuated by thick, winged liner, and contrasted with glossy, mauve lips. Overgrown, Nico-style bangs graze the brows, while hair is kept long and straight. For added impact, go for copper red and platinum blonde tones, for a look that's sure to get you those "15 minutes of fame"!
Get the Look: MDC Tells You How!
Look like the face of the '60s with this Twiggy-inspired eye-popping cat eye and massive lash attack — because MDC will never say no to luscious lashes! Perfect for a fun night out with the girls or if you're just in the mood for some added attention! To help us with this babydoll skin and lash look, we've enlisted the help of LA-based Makeup Artist Alana Dawn.
1. Start off with an all-over matte finish and a dust of pink from the apples of your cheeks to your temples! Apply a primer to your lids and just underneath your eyes like L'Oréal Paris De-Crease Eye Shadow Base. To really make your look stand out, use an eye brightening pencil like NYX Wonder Pencil along your waterline.
2. Using a black gel liner like YSL Effet Faux Cils Crème D' Eyeliner in Deep Black, line your top lids with a thick, defined cat eye with a brush like Urban Decay Perversion Angled Brush. Apply the gel liner along your lower lash line as well.
3. Re-line your lower lash line and the inner corners of your eyes with Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Yeyo for added depth and contrast against the dark gel! Now for the fun part!
4. Apply a fuller set of falsies to top lids for a long, wispy look and a lighter set to your bottom row of lashes. Not great with fake lashes? Layer up the Maybelline Volum' Express The Falsies Waterproof Mascara in Very Black!
5. Finish off your beauty look with a softer, mauve lip gloss like Urban Decay Naked in Lovechild to get a pretty dollface pout!
What's your favorite throwback-inspired look? Let us know in the comments below!

LDS Idaho Falls Temple
12/06/11 08:16 Filed in: HDR, Man Made
My oldest son recently has begun to develop an interest in photography. He purchased a Cannon DSLR and has been having a lot of fun being creative with it. This is his first attempt at an HDR. This is a three stop of the LDS Idaho Falls Temple. I love how rich the colors are and of the reflection on the water. The clouds in the background give a sense of a storm, but the sunset on the left give hope that the worst is past. This is a beautiful setting captured very well.

I went up one of our local canyons to take photos of the spring run off. I found this log in the middle of the stream surrounded by rushing water. It took about ten shots to finally get everything lined up on this one. Including not having water droplets all over the lens.
04/06/11 06:46
I shot this from inside a small overhang. Water was oozing out of the rocks, and the space was barely large enough for my camera, a small pool, small tripod and a cable release.

On her: J.Crew jacket | Hunter boots | Hunter socks | The North Face gloves
I've had these boots for almost 2 years now and I absolutely love them. They are the best for wet rain, slushy snow days. One thing to keep in mind that Hunter boots aren't insulated. If you're looking for something to keep your feet warm, definitely need to add these fleece socks. The kid version has two reflective patches on the back of each boot which add that little bit of safety when out and about. My daughter is currently wearing a size US 1 in shoes. I got these in a size UK 13 and they seem to fit her well with a little room to spare for thicker socks.
I personally think the price tag for a pair of Hunter wellies is worth it. They are available in an array of darling colors (red, purple, blue, grey, berry, black, green, white and deep red). They are a bit of a fashion statement as well as being totally practical. If you looking for outdoor gear, Surfdome carries a huge selection of over 900 popular lifestyle brands. There is certainly something for everyone. It took 7 days for my order to arrive from the UK which was pretty reasonable. They're running a 20% off promotion this weekend (use code XMS20). You now can score these Hunter boots for your little ones for under $50.

Cops, Protesters Prevent Moscow Gay Parade
Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov said in a radio interview Friday gay parades ''may be acceptable for some kind of progressive, in some sense, countries in the West, but it is absolutely unacceptable for Moscow, for Russia." ''As long as I am mayor, we will not permit these parades,'' he said.
