2015 Cleanup Weights, Pics & Survey!
Hello River Stewards! On behalf of We Love Clean Rivers and Clackamas River Basin Council, we'd like to send a big THANK YOU to 250+ volunteers that joined us this year for the 13th Annual Down the River Clean Up on the Clackamas River. Please help us out by taking 2-minutes to complete this short SURVEY by Tuesday Oct 6th. This year, with your help, we cleaned up nearly 2 TONS (3,800 lbs.) of trash from the Clackamas River and recycled 82% of that trash. That's the highest recycle rate we've had in 13 years – amazing! The breakdown of how much trash (in TONS) was collected from each of the 4 river sections is: McIver to Barton – .30 Barton to Carver – .69 Carver to Riverside – .50 Riverside to Clackamette – .41 Check out photos from the cleanup on Facebook here. We'd also like to say a HUGE THANK YOU to our 2015 sponsors: American Medical Response Clackamas River Water Providers Clackamas County Oregon State Parks & Recreation Dept.

River Clean Up Weights Released!
The highly anticipated weight totals from the 12th Annual Down the River Clean have been released! We apologize for the delay in posting. We had the 2nd highest volunteer turn out for the event that we've had in 12 years! There were 401 volunteers that together cleaned up a total of 2.82 tons (5,640 lbs.) of refuse from the Clackamas River. That averages out to be 14 lbs of trash cleaned per volunteer. The breakdown for each Park location of trash collected (in tons) includes: Barton – 0.15 Carver – 1.02 Riverside – 1.22 Clackamette – 0.42 53% of the total refuse collected was sorted into the "recycle" piles. Huge thanks to everyone for doing a great job pre-and-post sorting! 91% of those materials were indeed recycled, which is fantastic! The breakdown of that 91% includes: Metal – 65% Plastic – 13% Glass – 11% Aluminum cans – 2% Oh, and don't forget about all garbage/recyclables collected by artists. With the help of PNCA, we had nearly a dozen student artists attend the clean up this year — they collected hundreds of pounds of debris and are currently re-purposing it into pieces of art! Art will be on display and available for sale during RiPPLe Art Auction on First Thursday in the Pearl District (Portland) – December 4th. To date at the Down the River Clean Up, over the past 12 years, there has been 3,391 volunteers total, which have cleaned up 32.24 tons (64,680 lbs.) of trash from the lower 15-miles of the Clackamas River! So, thank you for being a part of this amazing feat, and thank you as well to all the sponsors, in-kind and silent auction donors! If you have not completed the 2 SURVEYS this year, please take 3 minutes to do so… It's very important to us that you do this. 1 is to help us understand the educational component and 2 to help us with planning and logistics to make next year's event even better. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/YC7F2Z9 https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/X5MN8HF Last but not least, check out Mark Gamba's beautiful photos on Facebook (click here) and the great video by the Clackamas County Government Channel: Cheers, We Love Clean...read more

Planning begins for new whitewater surf park on lower Clackamas River
We Love Clean Rivers (WLCR) recently was awarded a grant from Clackamas County Tourism and Cultural Affairs to develop a plan for a whitewater surf park on the lower Clackamas River. Such a park will make the lower Clackamas River a destination spot for whitewater kayakers, stand-up paddlers (SUP), surfers, river boarders, and canoeists. "A whitewater surf park on the lower Clackamas River will offer great tourism benefits to the local area," says Sam Drevo, President of WLCR. "Whitewater parks across the country have created booms in tourism and economic development by promoting recreation, training, commerce, improved safety, and fish habitat," explained Mr. Drevo. One example is a whitewater park in Golden, Colorado. This investment has had an economic impact of $1.8 million a year and improved fish habitat in Clear Creek. Whitewater and stand up paddling have been growing in popularity in Oregon yet they are a largely untapped target for river tourism. Shortened commute time and easy access could generate an "after work" crowd on the lower Clackamas, serving a pent-up demand for outdoor whitewater recreation. The project will also benefit fish habitat on the lower Clackamas. "A well designed and constructed water feature could provide habitat benefits for fish and aquatic life as well as for boaters," said Tim Shibahara, the Supervisor Fish Biologist with Portland General Electric (PGE). WLCR will partner with McLaughlin Whitewater Design, experts in whitewater park design, on this project. They will conduct preliminary engineering, design, and cost analysis and will create a presentation for the various agencies overseeing fish and wildlife. In addition, an economic impact study will be conducted that examines community benefits such as improved tourism, environmental awareness, fish habitat, and safety. PGE, American Whitewater, Metro Parks, Oregon Whitewater Association, Oregon Kayak and Canoe Club, Northwest River Guides/eNRG Kayaking, All About Rivers, Reed College, and Popina Swimwear support this project. Please contact WLCR if you are interested in advocating, funding, or stewarding this project. High resolution photos of surf park projects like this one are available upon request.

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho — Sid, a Mueller Grey Gibbon born at the Idaho Falls Zoo, has been reunited with his parents.
The City of Idaho Falls said in a press release the baby Gibbon has been under intense care by zoo staff since his birth because of complications.
"To hand raise a gibbon is an extremely complicated and time-intensive," Zoo Operations Manager Linda Beard said. "He needs 24-hour attention just like a human infant."
Officials say Sid is the first Mueller Grey Gibbon born at the zoo and is one of 16 living in the United States. The species is currently listed at an endangered primate.

INT: Vivica A. Fox
|Interview #1
|Uma Thurman
|Interview #2
|Lucy Liu
|Interview #3
|Lawrence Bender
|Interview #4
|Vivica A. Fox
|Interview #5
|Quentin Tarantino
Making a short but memorable appearance in KILL BILL: VOLUME I is the sexy young actress Vivica A. Fox. Playing an ex-assassin turned soccer mom, the BOOTY CALL star faces off with Uma Thurmans The Bride in the films explosive opening fight sequence. The stylishly choreographed scene features some of the most intense girl-on-girl knife-fighting action in recent cinematic history.
I met with Vivica at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills to talk about her experience playing a knife-wielding, ass-kicking soccer mom.
You were a great mom in this movie.
The mom who could kick some butt, huh?
What was going through your mind when you first saw this script?
That I had to do it. When Tarantino first sent over the script, I was like, Oh am I going to be the hooker or something. Just because you dont know with him. And then when I read it and it was with Uma Thurman and they were telling me some of the other people who were cast in it, I was like, You guys please get me a meeting with him. And in the meantime he had seen TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME and said, Shes great. I want to get her in a movie. So we met for a brief meeting and then he came to my house and we read the scene a couple of times at my house and he said, Youve got it. And we went out and celebrated with sushi.
How substantial is your part in Volume II?
Im just in flashbacks. Im dead. Im gone, dude. You will see the massacre and why we came and all that.
Does performing martial arts make you feel sexy?
Well, yeah. Did you notice how whenever I did the kicks they always freeze-framed on my butt. I was like, Good butt!
Where did you get the inspiration to fight like that?
Every Friday and Saturday, Quentin made sure we saw kung fu movies and old western movies, so that was inspiring. I was always a huge fan of Bruce Lee.
Why do you think people are so into girl fights?
Tough chicks. Chicks kicking ass. Because they think theres something sexy about it. Im just so glad that girl power is working in Hollywood. Im so glad that our movies are making money, because if they werent, trust me, wed go back to being on the porch waving the guy to save the day for us. So Im really glad that Hollywood has embraced us and that our fans have embraced us and love to see it as well, too, because without the support of the fans and stuff we wouldnt make it.
Both Lucy and Uma talked about how empowering it was to kick ass. Was it the same for you?
Absolutely. It felt good to come to work and kick some ass. It did. Im sadistic. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Id done comedies back-to-back-to back and I wanted something dark, gritty and physical. Be careful what you ask for, because then came KILL BILL and it was five long months. But when I saw the product, I was so proud of it.
How did they handle that scene with the little girl?
We made sure beforehand that we brought her on the set and let her know that the blood wasnt real. We talked to her about it. She was a trooper. She was like, I get it. I know my lines, yall ready? Her name was Ambrosia. She was six. She just looked young. They always have the kids older so they can handle it. She wasnt afraid at all. She knew her lines, she did her part and she was really good.
Whos your favorite action movie heroine?
From back in the day or now? Pam Grier, of course. I actually would love to do a remake of FOXY BROWN and have her involved in it and kick some ass, Foxy Brown style.
Isnt there a script floating around?
Theres one floating around, but theyre trying to give it to Halle. Im like, She cant be Catwoman and Foxy Brown! I think after Kill Bill that maybe theyll be a little more receptive and open to me.
And in your next movie youre playing a fairy godmother?
Thank God! Miramax handed me a little gift because they know they tortured me for one scene. One great scene. I did the movie ELLA ENCHANTED and I got to go to Ireland and film and it was like pretty and pink and glitter and sparkling and magical and green screens and no fighting. It was just great. So that was like Harveys way of looking out for me.
Can you talk about how youve grown in the past couple of years, personally and artistically?
Gosh. Well, now Im producing films. I just produced my first film, MOTIVE, which is a sexy suspense thriller. Im actually about to go to D.C. after this movie comes out. Im going to produce another movie. Ive learned in the last couple of years that I cant wait on Hollywood to determine what Im going to do. I have to open the doors to my destiny and set the next chapters that are about to happen in my life and not be afraid to. Thats been the most growth thats been eye-opening for myself: that I cant wait on my agents to do this. I have to.
Are you more girly-girl or more tomboy?
It all depends on what day it is. If its premiere night, Im going elegant and all out. But in everyday life Im in sweat pants. I like to work out and hang out with my friends and go to the movies and go to the grocery store. So, during the week Im tomboy, but I guess Im a weekend socialite when there are events. I love to dress up.
Do you still hoop?
No girl, I have retired those sneakers since JUWANNA MAN. Oh, my knees couldnt take that. Oh my gosh. I played in high school. I love basketball though, but I have no more desire to play.
Do you like being single again?
Well, Im kinda . . .yes! I enjoy being single again.
Well, youre not exactly single. I meant, do you like being unmarried?
Yes, yes, God yes! Oh my God yes!
It wasnt all that bad, was it?
Yes, it was. But that was one chapter and its over. Im very happily somewhat single.
Would you have any advice for Uma dealing with her situation?
Only that they should communicate and if its not working they should let it end.
How do you look back on movies you did when you were younger, like Juwanna Mann or Boat Trip?
Im proud of them. They blew it on BOAT TRIP because they held it for too long. We did the movie almost two to three years ago. When they released it, it was too late. The country was going at war, so its out of my hands at that point. But, I loved working with Cuba, and I got to travel on a boat. I went to Greece, Israel, Africa and all kinds of wonderful places. I really dont have any regrets, to be honest with you. Ive been very blessed with pretty much everything Ive worked on. Its been a good experience.
Any fond Booty Call memories?
You knew he had to throw some BOOTY CALL in there. Just that I got to work with Jamie and them. Its like a cult classic on Comedy Central. I hope we do Booty Call 2.

When Christmas time rolls around, there is no better way to celebrate the season than with a little Christmas music. Most women love singing along with their favourite holiday tunes when the snow starts falling. The season would not be half as cheery without beautiful choruses and peppy children's songs.
If you are struggling to think up a good Christmas gift idea for your wife, girlfriend, mother, daughter or any other women in your life, why not surprise her with the gift music? These days, it is unbelievably easy to purchase music for your loved ones. All you have to do is visit an online store, and download a few songs or purchase an entire album.
Once you've decided Christmas music is the perfect gift for her, you still have to narrow down the wide range of genres, artists and albums. Having an idea of the giftee's music preferences will definitely prove helpful. However, if you still aren't sure what to get, one of the following Christmas gift ideas will be sure to please:
Merry Christmas by Mariah Carey
This 1994 classic has been getting women up and dancing ever since it first came out. Most women recognise the album's big hit "All I Want for Christmas is you". The rest of the songs in the album are every bit as fun as the main hit. Women will love rocking out to Mariah Carey's music while they get ready for the holidays.
Christmas in the Heart by Bob Dylan
When Bob Dylan first announced that he was recording a Christmas album; the average person's first reaction was "huh?" Nobody thought that a Bob Dylan Christmas album could ever be a good thing, but you and your loved ones may be surprised when you hear the folk artist's versions of "Must Be Santa," "Silver Bells," "Little Drummer Boy" and other Christmas classics.
Disney Princesses Christmas Album
Christmas music is not limited to adult listeners. Your daughter, granddaughter or niece will love dancing to holiday tunes from her favourite Disney princesses. This is also a great gift for any mum trying to keep her daughters entertained during winter vacations.
Christmas Memories by Barbara Streisand
One of the most beautiful voices in the history of music, Barbara Streisand enchants again on her "Christmas Memories" album. The album contains a lot of traditional hits, but also some that are less known, such as "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve" and "Grown-Up Christmas List."
Merry, Merry Christmas by New Kids On The Block
Women who grew up during the 80s and 90s are very familiar with New Kids On The Block. Many of them still go nuts over this former teen heart throb band. Their holiday album was a major hit when it was released in 1989, but it's still a favourite among legions of women today.
Christmas Classics
Perhaps your loved one would prefer to have a smorgasbord of Christmas songs. If so, she will love the Christmas Classics album, which features classic Christmas hits from Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, Burl Ives, Connie Francis and several other talented artists.
Finding a Christmas gift idea can be tricky, as you never know for sure if the lucky lady will actually like the gift. If you have any idea about her taste in music, giving her a Christmas album may very well be your best bet. Christmas music can be played again year after year, and you just might find yourself enjoying every bit of it.

Talk about public relations disasters in degrees. When Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney criticizes a Pittsburgh cookie it's one thing. But when half a dozen secret service agents and 11 military personnel lose their jobs after seeking the "secret services" of women who could have gone by the street name "Cookie" it's an entirely different matter and enough to make me lose my dessert.
In short: this is not good at all.
If anything, the unfolding Secret Service and military personnel prostitute scandal is a glaring example that sometimes no matter how much spin is added to the curve ball of professional news speak and public relations, you can still strike out. The exploits of these men are indefensible which has left the political punditsphere returning to humor. One of my favorites comes from Steven Cody, the Managing Partner and Co-Founder of Peppercorn, a public relations firm. His idea, expressed in his most recent post: "Let's re-brand it the not-so Secret Service."
And while crass humor may serve as a temporary public antidote for the serious standards and security breach that was uncovered in Colombia, it will do nothing in the longer term court of public opinion.
To a large extent, Lawrence Berger, the lawyer for two Secret Service supervisors who lost their jobs was right. The actions of these individuals did not compromise the security of the President. But if that's the best defense that can be mustered, I think one would be hard pressed to call that a stunning PR reversal.
The President may not have been harmed physically, but his image certainly was, giving political red meat to the likes of Sarah Palin who commented on Fox news recently, "It's like, who's minding the store around here?"
The Secret Service, founded in 1865, and charged with presidential protection since 1901, has a long and largely successful history. While there's no denying this public relations disaster is a big one, it's also likely that an agency that presumably takes its mission and duty so seriously will work exceedingly hard at doing their jobs that much better so that time really will smooth out this unfortunate – kink. (Yes, pun intended)
"Waiting it out" is usually a PR professional's least favorite advice to a client. But in this case it may be the only way the embattled agency can regain its stripes. "I'm sorrys" have been made. Jobs have been lost.
It's quite possible the less they say going forward might be the most prudent course of action. Until, of course, one of them releases a kiss and tell all tome, which will be only a matter of time.

For the aviation sector, modern slavery (covering slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking) could be a major supply chain issue, particularly in relation to the providers of ancillary services such as catering, cleaning and ground/baggage handling in countries with more challenging labour environments.
Rules implemented in October 2015 require companies with a turnover of GBP 36 million or more to produce a "slavery and human trafficking statement" at the end of each financial year.
The rules apply to businesses with a year end of 31 March 2016 or later and the statement should be published as soon as possible (and in practice within six months) after the year end. The statement must be published on the organisation's website with a link "in a prominent place" on its homepage.
Which organisations must comply?
Any company which carries on a business in the UK, or part of a business in the UK, supplies goods or services and has an annual turnover of GBP 36 million or more. A company's turnover is determined by combining the turnover of its subsidiaries with its own. Any UK subsidiary which meets this threshold must also produce its own statement. These parameters will capture almost all airlines operating within the UK as well as many aviation service providers.
What must the statement contain?
In short the organisation must state:
- The steps the organisation has taken during the financial year to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in any of its supply chains or any part of its own business (including its foreign subsidiaries)
- That the organisation has taken no such steps
There are no further compulsory requirements regarding the content of the statement. The only penalty is for failure to produce one at all, in which case the organisation can be compelled by Court order to do so.
What might the statement contain?
The new rules give non-compulsory examples of what a statement may contain information on, for example:
- The organisation's structure, business and supply chains
- Its policies in relation to slavery and human trafficking
- The parts of its business and supply chains where there is risk of modern slavery taking place and what steps have been taken to assess and manage that risk
- The training on modern slavery available to staff
Additionally, the government has released guidance on the preparation of a statement, suggesting, amongst other things, that an organisation disclose information on:
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/ attachment_data/file/471996/Transparency_in_Supply_ Chains_etc_A_practical_guide_final_.pdf
The guidance is not compulsory and there is no legal penalty for non-compliance. However, it is clear that the Government expects consumers, investors and NGOs to engage and/or apply pressure where they believe the business has not taken sufficient steps. The real risk to airlines is therefore in being named and shamed by pressure groups or media organisations for not producing a sufficiently clear statement or, worse, evidence being uncovered inconsistent with the information in the statement. Parallels can be seen in relation to the reputational damage caused to retailers following the exposure of poor working conditions of garment producers in Indonesia.
Similar rules are in place in California where the NGO "KnowTheChain" has already engaged in public shaming exercises. The London and New York-based Business and Human Rights Resource Centre has also been active in approaching non-compliant organisations under the Californian regime and is very likely to turn its attention to businesses who fail to comply with the spirit, or letter of reporting requirements under the new UK rules.
What companies should do next
Organisations subject to the reporting requirement will need to ensure their slavery and human trafficking statement is underpinned by appropriate and proportionate action that is defensible in the face of scrutiny and criticism from inside and outside of the organisation.
Procurement policies should address modern slavery, and organisations should ensure that they have contractual protections in supply contracts; clear labour and whistleblowing policies; and consistent messaging throughout the supply chain. However, for those organisations operating in high risk jurisdictions, enhanced due diligence and the implementation of more stringent preventative measures will undoubtedly be required.Modern Slavery

We were invited to revitalize the brand in a modern and refreshing way, alluding to its berry origins in a subtle and sophisticated fashion. Both the newly created form and colour palette realize this, supported by the hand lettered brand mark and insignia.
We wanted to give the form a fruity feel but not in an overt way. This meant creating a shape with a clear organic influence and employing clever colour accents. With that we used frosted acrylic with a purple insert giving the jars a subtle diffused burst of colour and vitality.
We wanted to evolve the brandmark to depict the story of the two partners from different continents coming together with a shared passion for natural beauty. With that we created the an insignia, two interwoven 'S's', two sisters in spirit and in passion. This also became a key packaging element and gives it a somewhat ethereal beauty.
What's Unique?
Creating the unique packaging shape, leading with the two jars we then extended the concept in to 30ml and 100ml pump dispensers. The lids of all the products have a very fine edge adding to its modern expression.

It is well known that New Zealand scenery is spectacular but what's the best way to see it? There is no doubt that a campervan holiday is a great way to see the country and take in all the beautiful sights.
The NZ landscape can change dramatically in a few hundred kilometres so a roadtrip in your motorhome or campervan is an ideal way not to miss a thing.
You can drive from Christchurch on the east coast to Greymouth on the west coast of the South Island in about three hours. But on the way, the scenery changes dramatically. You leave the garden city and head out through relatively flat farmland towards the Southern Alps which rise up majestically in front of you. Then it's driving through the mountains and then you hit Arthur's Pass National Park and suddenly the relatively sparse vegetation gives way to lush native rain forest. The drive down the Otira Gorge is spectacular and the west coast's beauty is its wildness and lushness.
Not a day's drive from Greymouth and you're in glacier country - more dramatic New Zealand scenery. Follow the road south and cross the beautiful Haast Pass and then you come to Wanaka and further on Queenstown with their lakes reflecting the surrounding mountains.
The drive from Christchurch to Queenstown is only a small part of New Zealand and there are so many other routes with equally amazing scenery - all waiting to be explored by you in your campervan.
You can stop and have lunch where you like - often with views from your camper van that a restaurant would die for. You can find that spot with fantastic views for some overnight freedom camping - imagine the cost of real estate with that view!! That's why a campervan or motorhome holiday is perfect for seeing the best scenery New Zealand has to offer.

Press Release: Detroit Tigers Among Dignitaries at the DYA Gala
Detroit, MI, April 23, 2013 –The Detroit Yacht Club, in conjunction with the Detroit River Regatta Association (DRRA), will host a fundraising dinner party and auction on April 27 beginning at 6:00 p.m. to benefit the 2013 APBA Detroit Gold Cup Races, scheduled for July 13 – 14 on the Detroit River. Last year's event raised more than $80,000 from ticket sales and live and silent auctions. Approximately 500 people were in attendance, including local dignitaries and guests from both the U.S. and Canada.
Money raised from the fundraiser will go toward operating expenses for this year's Gold Cup Races.
This year's fundraiser will feature WJR Radio's Frank Beckmann as Master of Ceremonies and include appearances by several Detroit Tiger players including Ramon Santiago, Al Albuquerque and Octavio Dotel, Brayan Pena and Brayan Villerael. Musical entertainment will be provided by the "Back In The Day Band" headed by Larry Lee, former Detroit Lions center and Vice President.
The Detroit Yacht Club will announce a major concert to be staged on the Club's grounds on Thursday July 11 to kick off Gold Cup weekend. It will feature Grammy Award winning singer Rick Springfield along with a special guest co-headliner to be named at the Saturday evening event. Show and ticket information will be announced at the event this Saturday.
"The Detroit Yacht Club is proud to once again host this important fundraising event for the APBA Gold Cup Races," said Scott Allen, Commodore of the Detroit Yacht Club. "The hydroplane races in Detroit are a 100 year old, family tradition that we must preserve. It is more than a race; it is a community event which showcases one more positive piece of Detroit. The Detroit Yacht Club is a vital and growing part of the renewed spirit of Detroit and we are proud to be partnered with the Detroit River Regatta Association and the American Power Boat Association to keep this tradition alive."
The Detroit Yacht Club is the Presenting Sponsor for this year's Gold Cup Races again in 2013, leading the fundraising efforts for the event, including seeking businesses, individuals and clubs to help by donating auction items and by attending the event on April 27.
A Title Sponsor is still needed for the Gold Cup Races. Interested companies or individuals should contact either Scott Allen, Commodore of the DYC at 248-841-3656 or Mark Weber of the Detroit River Regatta Association (DRRA) at 586-774-0980.
The Gold Cup is considered the oldest contested motorsports trophy in the world, with Detroit hosting the longest running, yearly hydroplane race in the world. The Detroit River racecourse is considered the most famous powerboat racecourse in the world.
"We greatly appreciate the region's support of the APBA Gold Cup Races for the past 100 years," said Tom Bertolini, President, DRRA. "We look forward to another great event this year, supporting a tradition of boating excellence and for many an annual family event along the shores of the Detroit River."
The Gala Fundraiser will be held Saturday April 27, 2013 beginning at 6:00 pm. Tickets are $100 per person and available by calling the Detroit Yacht Club at (313) 824-1200.
Founded in 1868, the Detroit Yacht Club is one of the oldest and most prestigious private clubs in North America. Listed on the United States Department of Interior National Register of Historic Places, the Detroit Yacht Club has been the center of Detroit society for nearly 150 years and continues a proud tradition and commitment to excellence and quality service to its members and the community.

Saw a solitary flower open on a Hairy Willowherb plant.
Great Willowherb
, Epilobium hirsutum,
AKA Hairy Willowherb, Codlins and Cream and Cherry pie.
I should have got round to tak
ing a series earlier in the summer.
Snipped it off and took some shots. One advantage was I could take some pix of the seeding.
Once again such small seeds for so large a plant. No wonder that it can spread so easily.
The lightest of breezes would carry this achene and papus for miles.

Many researchers working in quantum theory believe that information is the most fundamental building block of reality.
My name is Bob and I was in love with a woman I never met. Photons passed between us, more information in a week than some couples share in a lifetime. Daily she affected my life, her fiddling with measurement predicted my outcomes. At first it was pure necessity, she was the observer at the other end of an experiment. I saw a number, a notation, a state of polarization, but no more. Then she was an antagonist, a nemesis, a reflection in the dark mirror, my opposite. It felt like there was animosity in her observation, robbing me of degrees of freedom, determining my state. Even then, I needed her. If opposites attract, we had billions of instances of attraction in the quanta that built our research and soon that was how it felt. The reversals seemed less capricious, more complimentary. Rather than forcing my observation, I felt destined to observe. No nearer to her in body, I felt connected in spirit, entangled with her.
Anticipation is a state of exquisite uncertainty. Before you know, you dream, you hope, you wish, you imagine. Anything is possible. The good, the great, the sublime, even the chocolate-coated orgasmic are all possible. You will not just fall hopelessly into one another's arms, but you will spend your lives in utter bliss. The dishes will never pile up in the sink or the laundry on the bed. Basements won't flood and roofs won't leak. Neither of you will age, develop wrinkles, or suffer the common cold. There will be no dandruff or back pain and your feet won't stink. Before a future reality can exist, love or loss must be resolved. In longing, in the not knowing, loss too remains unknown and only the possibility speaks to your desires.
The undisturbed state, though, cannot last. Human nature abhors the passive observer. We are scientists. By definition we must know. I had to know. Could I plot the probability of my answer over time? Was there an optimal moment to collapse the uncertainty and ask? After all the messages passed between us, the most difficult could not be carried by photons, but rather hundreds of thousands of times slower, by car and by foot and by human voice, all equally torpid to our chosen playthings. What difference does 3 or 60 or 700 miles per hour make to something that moves 186,000 of those miles in an hour?
I brought the box. Black with a question mark painted inside. It meant everything to the right observer and nothing to anyone else. A series of contingent events began and smaller uncertainties resolved themselves. I knocked. The door opened. Alice's long brown hair was in a ponytail. She wore stylish tortoiseshell glasses, cocked her head and smiled.
"I'm Bob," I said.
"So nice to meet you," she said extending a hand. I shook her hand, nervous. Then I held out the box.
She took it and my body tensed. On the edge of a precipice, she held the answer in her hand and opened it. Soon there would be only the answer. Good or bad, happiness or disappointed, but no longer anticipation. The moment would coalesce and everything would have to account. The dishes, the laundry, flooded basements and leaky roofs, dandruff, wrinkles and smelly feet would all have their day in one reality or the other.
Peering inside, she smiled and closed it. Was a smile enough? No. Did she understand?
"Are you asking me out?" she asked.
"I thought it would be obvious," I said.
"Never make assumptions," she replied and smiled.
"Yes, I am," I said.
"You're sure you want that, you can't put things back the way they were once you know," she said and I knew she understood.
"I have to know," I said.
"I know you do and so do I. Let's get dinner."
Collapse. And from that event, a new crop of uncertainty sprung. Like the heads of the hydra, once each event is resolved, two more spring from it. New perfect futures can turn somersaults in the mind while others, now precluded, we forget.
Our future of a million billion uncertainties began with one desire. My name is Bob and I wanted to send a message to Alice.

The weather had cooled since my first dismal camping debacle, and I was not looking forward to freezing my ass off all night while my husband and cats sat snugly under our copious couch blankets and watched an embarrassing amount of Dr. Who episodes. I kinda moped around all afternoon, being vague and wishy-washy, waiting until the very last moment to take off.
It was evening by the time we rounded the last curve of that windy road to Coe. As we turned into the one way road that circled through the campsites, I instantly saw that I had, yet again, made an error in judgement. The campsites were so small, and designed so poorly that they were practically stacked on top of each other. Aaron pulled into my spot and it was so close to the next site that I was convinced we were in the wrong place. But it was getting dark and Aaron had a long ride home, so I jumped out of the car to make the best of things. The only spot in my campsite that even remotely looked liked a tent had been there before ended up being about 15 feet from my neighbors fire pit. There was a woman and two girls tending fire and preparing for dinner and we all avoided each others eyes as I quickly set my tent up.
Aaron left and there wasn't much to do. I was grumpy and didn't feel like exploring. Plus, even though there was a shrub separating my picnic table from their fire pit, I still felt like an interloper. I crawled into my tent and began the arduous task of inflating my pad and bundling up in the cheater clothes I brought. (Cheater clothes: clothes I obviously won't be taking on the trail, i.e. a snow parka, a leopard neck wrap, 3 long underwear and one pair of sweater booties.)
When I was finally situated, there wasn't really anything to do except play CrossMe on my phone and listen to the people next door. By this time the menfolk had come back from fishing at Frog Lake, and dinner was being served. They were having burritos. I knew this because the guy who sounded like the father of the family kept going, " Mmmmm…..burritos……mmmmmmmm……..mmmmmmmmm….this is goooooood burritos…..mmmmmmm." He then waxed nostalgic about his many years of not liking avocados, until one day in his thirties, he had an Avocado Epiphany, and was now enjoying an Avocado Renaissance. He had a lot of opinions about food. Later in the evening I would hear him proclaim, " Oh yuck, I ate an onion! What a disappointing thing to do!"
The campsites were all full and I could hear people standing around their respective fires and telling tales. I fell asleep to two teen-age boys near-by whispering with bravado about their 'weenises' as they pissed into the shrubbery.
My neighbors this camping trip had been loud, but not at all like that other family. For one, they all seemed to like each other and enjoyed camping. And I felt a silly pride for surviving the "critter attack" in the middle of the night. But I still was kicking myself for not taking a bigger chance and ditching the car camping shenanigans for some real wilderness.

House Science Committee Hearing next week, what will we learn?
Dr. Judith Curry has announced on her always interesting web blog Climate, Inc. that she will be testifying at the "Full Committee Hearing- Climate Science: Assumptions, Policy Implications, and the Scientific Method". The official hearing press release is here.
Of course everyone is looking forward to watching the questions to and testimony of all of the witnesses which are John Christy, Judith Curry, Michael Mann and Roger Pielke Jr.
The problem is actually much bigger than what this hearing is addressing. Let's first ask the simple question:
"How much has been spent on climate change science, policy, regulations, industry and individuals in total over the past two decades, with the hope of reducing Co2, and what has it achieved"
Well globally, we can't really say for sure, but we can refer to the GAO website report called "Climate Change Funding and Management" here. Which reads:
Federal funding for climate change research, technology, international assistance, and adaptation has increased from $2.4 billion in 1993 to $11.6 billion in 2014, with an additional $26.1 billion for climate change programs and activities provided by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009. As shown in figure 1, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has reported federal climate change funding in three main categories since 1993:
technology to reduce emissions,
science to better understand climate change, and
international assistance for developing countries.
Figure 1: Reported Federal Climate Change Funding by Category, 1993-2014
So in our next exercise, we went ahead and grabbed the CO2 PPM Annual Mean file from here, charted it over the same period, which looks like this:
Next, we could not help ourselves but to overlay the two to check for any correlation of global mean ambient Co2 and US Government spending on climate change, the results are shocking:
So what conclusions can we draw from this, we are forced with a multiple choice option:
- Stop spending on climate change in the hopes of lowering Co2, and remove it from the already bloated national discretionary spending budget along with all other scientific research and let the private sector handle science;
- Spend more on climate change with the hopes at some point this correlation shall reverse itself, and continue the path to national insolvency;
- Spend the same as we spent last year on climate change without an increase, and continue the path to national insolvency.
We believe #1 is the best option.

#FuelYourHustle Campaign
Pilgramers spent twelve weeks traveling to six key markets to promote the Chevrolet Cruze Hatchback to millennials. The team captured high quality stories of young entrepreneurs chasing after their dreams through 6 video vignettes and 48 individual photo stories. We shared the stories through the Pilgramers and Chevrolet social channels as well as partnering with select influencers in each city.
Entrepreneur Vignettes
We focused on documenting the hustle of young entrepreneurs and creatives to place consumers at the center of the narrative. The stories helped people visualize a more positive future and framed the Cruze Hatchback as a means of getting there, linking Chevrolet to the pursuit of purpose.
Recap Videos
We surprised Chevrolet by creating a bonus BTS video for each city we visited and sharing it on our Instagram. We have an enthusiastic following of creatives, so documenting the act of creation is just as exciting as the final assets. Chevrolet loved the videos and shared several on their own social channels.
Featured Client: Eiwil
As socially-conscious storytellers, we were so excited to help the amazing Justin Stackiewitz launch his new line, Eiwil. Short for 'Enjoy It While It Lasts', the philanthropic brand donates a portion of profits to charity with every sale.
We worked closely with Justin and his team to make sure each phase of the creative process fit with his vision for the brand—catering the location, models, and even editing style their key demographics.
The final result was a comprehensive media package with hundreds of lifestyle and editorial images, individual video vignettes of each model, and a BTS recap video to capture the excitement around the three day shoot.

School started yesterday. Trying to figure out a new schedule to accommodate all my resolutions for the year has been a bit stressful, but I'm on the right track. I think I just need to hit the point where I have a million fewer things to do and then it'll be smooth sailing! My goal for that day is Friday. Wish me luck....
Last week I was away and too busy with my family to remember to post anything. I can totally show you what I was working on, though. My grandma was helping me sew! I'm starting with the most complicated pattern ever, but between the two of us, we figured out most of it and got my pieces all cut out. I just need to tend to some knitting before I dive in. I'm hoping this weekend will be a sewing weekend.
I've enjoyed the process so far. It's like a puzzle that I only theoretically know how to put together. It's very philosophical, the more I think about it. And describes most everything I know. I can tell you how to do things, but that doesn't mean I've ever done it before. Like entrelac or those Beekeeper hexipuffs: I've never done it, but someone explained it to me once, so I get it. I could do it. I think. Right?
Weirdly, it's figuring out how to transfer important marks from the pattern pieces that's holding me up. Fabric pen? Pins? just sew through the pattern pieces? That and deciding whether I trust my machine to baste. Those are dumb things to hold me back, but I get hung up on the small stuff all the time. In any case, I hope to have an update or an upset to share with you next week.
What do you think: knowing how to do something and having done that thing...the same thing? Should we maybe all try those things we think we know how to do just to make sure?

I really want to hear about your progress on this, Vanessa! I love that you and your grandmother worked together and that you started with the most complicated pattern you could. Very endearing. When you finish this to your satisfaction, you'll be a genius, right?ReplyDeleteReplies
Haha, I don't think so, Michelle! This project taught me that I know nothing when it comes to sewing, so I'm going to take a class for my second dress. That said, this dress turned out really well and I can't wait to finally share it!Delete

- The drop-down boxes on the right of the screen let you change the business and product you're currently editing. If you are an administrator of only one business, the drop-down won't appear.
- The icons in the grey navigation bar switch between different portal functions:
- Manage, where you can make changes to your API access or branding
- Analytics, where basic reporting about your API access can be found
What can be controlled in the Business Portal?
Once configured, through the business portal you can:
- Create a new product, and obtain a consumer key and secret
- Configure the set of identity data you wish miiCard members to share with your application
- Set up use of the transactional charging model for your application
- See reporting about your application, including details of referrals and promotional codes redeemed
- Add administrative users to help manage your applications
- Configure test users for your applications
What can't be controlled in the Business Portal?
You will still need to ask miiCard if you want to:
- Turn on your transactional application for public (and charged) use
- Change your business profile name
- Enable full co-branding
- Start using WS-Federation or Windows Azure ACS
- Configure your API key to skip the Claims Picker on the second and subsequent requests for a given miiCard member

I've always had a soft spot for Greek food. My grandmother (Noni), with Greek and Turkish heritage, constantly kept a gigantic block of feta in the fridge and I even remember her stretching homemade dough across the kitchen table when she was making her phyllo sheets from scratch. One dish that seems to be the true litmus test for a Greek cook, or restaurant for that matter, is Avogolemono Soup. The lemon chicken soup with rice is true comfort food, usually enriched with eggs to give it a silky, wonderful texture. It can be flat and bland or balanced perfectly and warm you all the way through with one bite. Naturally I was thrilled to see a recipe in the LA Times for a version from Taverna Tony in Malibu, CA. This is true cooking from the pantry-no fancy ingredients or techniques involved-the rich soup makes a perfect dinner on any cool night.
One of my close friends is wheat-free in all she eats. She loves a good treat so I'm always sending her recipes for flourless baked good when they cross my desk. I'm picky though-I don't get excited about flour substitutes or the use of baking mixes. I look for recipes like flourless chocolate cake or chewy coconut meringues that taste great with their natural ingredients (that said, I have not ventured deep here and I'm sure I could be convinced there are other wheat free sweets I would like). This version of Flourless Carrot Cake in the NY Times is totally intriguing to me. It looks much less dense that a traditional carrot cake, almost a tea cake (or a breakfast cake, if you ask me). Easily embellished with a layer of cream cheese frosting, I'm giving this one a try and will report back. If it passes the test it's heading up to hill to Jen's right away.
Remember that Greek and Turkish influence in my Noni's cooking? This recipe, hailing from Morocco, looks exactly like something else she would bake. Clearly she's looking over my shoulder today. Anise Flavored Challah Bread with Sesame Seeds was a staple on her table at every celebratory meal. I don't know if her recipe mirrors this one exactly. Actually, I know it doesn't because she never used a recipe! But, I can smell it in my head right now-warm from the oven with that sweet scent of anise, we'd pull it off the loaf and eat it as fast as we could. I've never made it myself but with this recipe staring right at me I think it's Noni's way of telling me to get on it pronto.
Happy Cooking!

Watch all the hottest virtual porn movies right here at Virtual Reality Bang. The Virtual Porn Cinema has all the hottest VR sex clips you're looking for.
Well, in my job i am obligated to do everything my master wants me. It was my first time that my master wanted me to make him "relax" but in some other way. He wanted me to take his cock into my mouth and let him fuck me in positions he wants. At the beginning I wanted to refuse his request, but then i said to myself: "why not to try it?" and i did! I tried. I Do not regret it at all.
I never behave like this! I tihnk it was truely bitch behavior. Ussualy I am really calm and polite girl but this time…. I wanted to suck their cocks like a slut. I was taking it as deep as i could and i allowed them to fuck me afterwards, I wanted to get wasted by them. At the end I even begged them to finish on my face and hairs. Well…. they did it.
Me and my friend Jasmine wanted to do something crazy, we decided to fullfill our erotic fantasy. We always wanted to get fucked by two diffrent guys at the same place, the way we found them was quiet strange… We took random guys from a street and asked them if they would like to go with us to the hotel, we were wearing some hot clothes so they just looked at us and said "okay".
I've got a call from a customer that wants to meet and fuck. Obviously i get paid for that and i love that job. I dresed up in some sexy pink lingerie and sexy high heels, and went for a meeting. When they guy saw me he literaly had instant boner, i smiled to him and i started doing the thing that i am doing the best – blowjob.
Fucking with older guys is really exciting. I am young, i know it! But still i like to have sex with an older guy, i feel like he is filling my whole pussy with his big cock, i feel like a teenager getting banged by an experniced sex expert.
It happens often that i don't come beacuse the guy is bad in sex. This guy said one thing to me: "Make me a good footjob and it going to be the best sex in your life". Well, i don't really like it but when he said these words i decided to try since I was tired of not getting orgasm.
Have you ever dreamed about fucking attractive MILF like me? Well… I am addicted to sex so your dreams could be fulfilled easily. I am not sure if alot of MILF behave me like this but i cant live without getting fucked every single day.
Do you like a bit bigger woman than normal ones? I call myself that I am a bit chuby, not fat at all! just a bit bigger than a normal woman. This evening i felt enoromusly horny so I wanted to chill out a bit, i layed on the bed and started to playing with myself as no one was near who could make me satisfied. Well if only i could have any cock to use I would deffinitly use it.
This is out of ordinary sex tool. Tool or even a machine… I do not use it often but sometimes when i got really horny I want something special. I sat on what i call a "fucking machine" and imagined that i am sitting on a guy who fucks me in a rider position.
Not alot of girls uses dildo when they want to have fun but I like it alot. Especially when it is big or got some nice shape. At this time i decided to choose a glass dildo to play with myself. I guess you will ask what am i thinking about when i am doing that…

At Pressly, we speak to internal communications, and the importance of collaboration through content. Here, Bryan speaks to how successful businesses thrive off of emotional intelligence (EI) inside of an organization.
Constructing a work environment that is both inviting and empowering allows for a healthier business.
"Create a work environment that encourages communication: Does your company space allow for an exchange of diverse opinions?" - Bryan Kramer
Referenced in the post, Daniel Goleman's best selling book on EI and describes it as the ability to be recognized, understand and manage one's emotions.
The ability to master EI allows a team to make better decisions, and work cohesively. It's a great thought by Kramer, and you should check out his personal blog:
Opening your communications can allow things like EI come to fruition. Easily achievable when you're a team of 20, but imagine a team of over 1000 employees.
A consistent pain point felt across most Fortune 1000 companies, but it starts with understanding the problem exists, and then implementing solutions.

What girls like the guys to do?
Making a girl like you can be a hard job, especially for girls of today who are very hard to get because of their high expectations. In order to make a girl like you, it is very important to know what the girl likes and whether she is equally interested in your or not. Learning how to make a girl like you or what girls like is actually very easy if one concentrates. This article is going to be a complete guide to make a girl fall for you and you have the best time of your life with someone you love.
Dress to impress
There are many ways in which you can make a girl like you or at least get to notice you. The first thing which a girl likes in a guy is their style. Girls these days don't go for swag, instead they want the classic styling which may include formal dressing with decent colors. Girls these don't prefer fitted jeans with t shirt on guys, they prefer front open shirt worn casually with sleeves folded till elbow and a normal fitted jeans. The shirts should be in decent color, nothing sharp or those which looks over on guys. Fitted shirts on guys don't look nice either and it is something which girls don't prefer. So in order to make a girl like you, make sure you have the best styling in your dressing and get up, this will make you get in the notice of the girl.
Attention and care
The second thing which girls like is the smile of the guys, make sure whenever you catch the girl looking at you give your best smile there is. In return you might get some smile and even blushing on the cheeks. Another thing which a girl likes the most is attention they get from a guy. If you have a crush on a girl studying in the same school, college or university then try giving her some attention, for example if she's in the same line as you in the cafeteria then invite her to move forward. Try helping her out in solving some problems in the studies and also talk to her when she is sitting alone. Girl loves company and they also like it when a guy gives attention to every detail she tells and shows interest.
The next thing what the girls like the most is the care. They love it when a guy cares for them, takes interest in them and is always there to help them. How to show care? Ask her if she has had breakfast, when purchasing coffee, get an extra cup for her too, ask her if she's ok every day, especially if she has headache or is sneezing. The attention and love is a best way to win the heart of women in a better way. The women should take care about these issues or points.

In jconsole, select remote process and then localhost:1528 The error message is connection refused. Then temporarily turn off the firewall and retry and perhaps mess with the firewall settings to make sure there is proper access to the port. I am thinking most of the times this has occurred has been after a JDK upgrade, so it also might be useful to run just managment.JMXTest after ugprades to determine if that is the issue. > Lots of failures with Connection Refused, starting with JMXtest.testDerbyRegisteredMBeansSimpleInfo on 10.6.2.3(1022806) codeline while running Junit suite with ibm16 on windows machine > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-4852 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4852 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Test > Affects Versions: 10.6.2.3 > Reporter: Mamta A.

A recent trip to Carluccio's after my son's rugby class..
Anthony Carluccio is one of the famous celebrity chefs over here. But before relocating here, I don't know him at all. I only got to know about his existence when my husband (then boyfriend) bought his cookbook in Melbourne so he can cook me a dish from one of his recipes.
