Karachi, February 24th– The Childrens Literature Festival is back in Karachi in collaboration with Karachi Youth Initiative, Dawood Public School, The Dawood Foundation, OLPERS, Canadian High Commission of Pakistan, Oxford University Press, Open Society Foundation, Idara-e-Taleem-o-Aagahi and the Government of Sindh.. From 26th-28th February, the 3rd mega CLF Karachi will take place at the Dawood Public School, bringing children and literature together for an extraordinary learning experience once again. Looking at the huge successes of CLFs held around Pakistan since 2011, various actors, performers, renowned writers, and education experts are eagerly waiting to attend the festival and contribute to the lifelong learning of our children.
The three day festival will be structured around numerous sessions, programs, workshops and performances throughout the day for not only children but also teachers and parents. The last day of the festival will be dedicated to teachers and will be the 6th Teacher's Literature Festival being held in Pakistan till date. With hope to enhancing critical thinking in our new generation, CLF will create a platform for all stakeholders in the system to learn and discuss the importance of literature for our children today.
Speaking at the press conference, CEO of CLF, Maham Ali revealed the names of Zoe Viccaji, Samina Ahmed, Hina Khawaja Bayat, Sania Saeed, Sidra Iqbal, Afshan Ahmad, Tina Sani as celebrity guests at the festival. Also Nisar Khuro, Sheema Kermani, Zobaida Jalal, Afshan Ahmad, Khaled Anam, Amra Alam, Rumana Husain, Hamida Khuhro, Zubeida Mustafa will be participating. This time, CLF is also hosting award winning author and storyteller from Canada, Rukhsana Khan who is being supported by the Canadian High Commission and has been conducting different workshops in schools in Islamabad and Karachi.
Speaking at the occasion, Sabrina Dawood, CEO of The Dawood Foundation and trustee of Dawood Public School, said "The Dawood Foundation is proud to host the 3rd Mega Children's Literature Festival at Dawood Public School. Our collaboration with CLF resonates of our commitment to promote education across all strata of society."
Asfandyar Khan, Program Development Officer from Karachi Youth Initiative (KYI) said, "It's a wonderful opportunity for children to be able to learn how to express themselves freely and the fact that institutions like CLF continue to exist emphasizes the need to continue investing in our children and our future."
Others who addressed the press conference were the Founder of CLF, Baela Raza Jamil, Managing Director Oxford University Press, co-founder of CLF Ameena Saiyid and children's author, Rukhsana Khan.
Childrens Literature Festival is a social movement founded by Baela Raza Jamil of Idara-e-Taleem-O-Aagahi (ITA) and co-founded by Ameena Saiyid of Oxford University Press (OUP). It is the first ever national program that has reached ALL territories and social segments in Pakistan. Over 480,000 children and teachers have attended the program in 4 years in 22 Childrens Literature Festival all across the country and 5 Teachers' Literature Festival that has now become a regular feature with each mega Childrens Literature Festival (http://childrensliteraturefestival.com/). Childrens Literature Festival seeks to promote a reading culture for creativity, imagination and multi-sensory stimulation beyond classrooms and textbooks. CLF provides a unique platform that drives the interest of children towards the joy of reading, self-expression and critical thinking. It is a social movement that was triggered by data on low learning levels, obsession with textbooks and tests across Pakistan, sacrificing creativity and wonder in children and youth.
Childrens Literature Festival organizers, partners and the Dawood Public School invited all the children of Karachi and their families to attend the festival and be part of the most creative learning process in Pakistan. Entry is free for all!

Following this event, it was determined that providing a space for working professionals in Chitwan, to raise awareness of the climate change sector, would be beneficial. The upcoming inauguration is an extension of this engagement, as district level officials and government representative have been invited to take part in this inauguration.
The event is to take place at the Bharatpur Garden Resort in Chitwan from 3:30 to 5:30 pm. Following this the course would be launched this month. Selected professionals that would participate in this course, would continue their association with HI-AWARE for four to five month, till completion of the course.

Step 4: We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
There is lots of talk in recovery about keeping our inventories balanced. It is somewhat confusing. The CR Inventory Worksheet, like the one in the image above, was designed to guide CR participants through the process.
How do we include the good in our inventory process when it is all about unearthing and writing down the bad—the ugly things we've done or what's been done to us? On the surface there is nothing good about that. The good comes from the results of writing it down (Step 4), sharing it with our sponsors (Step 5), and then when possible, making amends (Step 9).
So how is our inventory balanced? A balanced inventory does not mean that we add columns to our inventory worksheet for the good, although that can be done. A balanced inventory means that we are to take in the good that we have done in our lives as well. We are not to dwell on the negative. We are not the sum of the bad things that are included on our inventory. We have our identity in Christ who has wiped our sins clean. He sees us as unblemished—spotless and clean.
"Come now, let us settle the matter," says the Lord. "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool." (Isaiah 1:18, NIV)
The problem is that we don't see ourselves as that because we carry around our past mistakes and often let them define us.
Keeping our inventory balanced actually starts the minute we actively enter recovery (or join a Step Study). It is when we start to create relationship with others in recovery. It is through building accountability teams and having regular meetings with our sponsor. These relationships start to pour positive things into us. They provide encouragement, wisdom, support, and prayer. They are helping us to see that we are worthy of love and accepted for who we are, not what we've done.
Our inventories are also balanced by memorizing scripture, like Isaiah 1:18 above, by regularly attending Celebrate Recovery meetings, by listening to or reading others' testimonies of hope (shared at meetings or one on one), and by filling our minds with any of the over 7,000 promises of God found in the Bible.
We are renewing our minds—replacing the not-so-good with the good, with the better, and the best of what God has to offer us.
"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." (Romans 12:2, NIV)
Also, as you write about the negative things that happened in your past, look for any good that may have come out of it. Keep track of those things. They help to turn our negative attitude into an attitude of gratefulness. Review them as you work on your inventory and maybe share them with your sponsor too.
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.' (Isaiah 43:18-19, NIV)
As you take in the good from those around you in recovery and from God's Word, let God make you into something new—where your life is filled with greater purpose. Taking out the garbage, so to speak, by writing out our personal inventories, frees us to receive the good.
Like a circus performer walking on a tightrope above the crowds, finding the right balance can be a challenge while working on our inventories. Once you find it, with the help and support of your recovery relationships and God's Word, you will find it easier to balance life later on.
"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." (Philippians 4:8, NIV)

Before that I have read most of the guides here downloaded the good stuff to get the homebrew channel on my new wii. I finally got it & I found out a few things... 1. It's not a US wii like i thought, it's a Korean Wii. 2. The firmware is 3.2U!? 3. HBC, GeckOS & Gamecube backup launcher is already installed. Now I read the guide where you can change the region firmware but I think I am missing something that I hope gets answered here. My questions are... Can I update a Korean Wii on 3.2U to 4.1U~4.2U, straight, without any bricking, with HBC & the works on a Korean Wii with US Firmware? Can I download Virtual Ware & Wiiware from Nintendo with a US points card on a Korean Wii with US Firmware? I hope you guys can help me on this. Thanks.

Members Assisting Members: A Lifeboat for Sri Lanka
The UK & Ireland's Royal National Lifeboat Institution has had a close association with the Sri Lankan Lifeboat Institution since it was established some 15 years ago, primarily in support of the local artisanal fishing industry.
The fledgling organisation's initial progress was slow, hindered by civil war as well as the problems familiar to all start-ups. However a number of very useful projects have been undertaken, including the issue of lifejackets, radar reflectors and EPIRBs (see LIFE LINE April 2011) and, after the 2004 tsunami, funds to restore and resupply boatyards near Galle.
Now, though, the SLLI has a lifeboat too, thanks to the continuing generosity of Sri Lankan sponsors, the RNLI, and the Chinese shipping company COSCO – who very kindly transported the boat from Felixstowe to Colombo free of charge, after discussions between COSCO Group's chairman, Mr Ma Zehua, and former IMRF chairman Michael Vlasto, following an introduction by former trustee Captain Song Jiahui. Thanks are due too to Malcolm Elvy Transport, who took the boat from the RNLI's centre at Poole to Felixstowe at short notice, to catch COSCO's Hanjin Long Beach.
The lifeboat in question is the 14.3m, 18 knot, self-righting Tyne class known to the RNLI as Robert and Violet, which served at Moelfre Lifeboat Station from 1988 to 2013 and then briefly at Lough Swilly before commencing her journey to the Indian Ocean. She is currently being prepared for operational service and will be based in Colombo.
Here she will continue to save lives; a fine example of the IMRF's 'members assisting members' concept. We hope to bring you news of her in her new home in a future edition of LIFE LINE.

February 2011
Dear Alumni,
As we begin our 32nd year as a premiere occupational therapy program in the metropolitan area, I would like to highlight some wonderful achievements of our Kean University faculty and students in the last year.
Our department is now part of the Nathan Weiss Graduate College. We have moved to our new home on the beautiful East Campus, where we have state-of-the-art classrooms, and spacious office suites that can accommodate small group meetings with students.
We were publicly praised by President Farahi during his opening day address for our creative programs and scholarly activities. We were also thrilled to receive funding to begin development of the first occupational therapy clinic at the University to serve members of the community.
Here are some additional advancements that we've made in the last year:
- Last spring the faculty implemented phase two of the highly successful Transitions Program, which assists young adults diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders, who are interested in enrolling in college.
- OT students and faculty were instrumental in bringing the Young Athletes Program (YAP) Special Olympics to campus. We collaborated with Kean's physical education, special education and therapeutic recreation programs to bring young children with intellectual disabilities and their families to participate in sports skills activities. You can watch this moving video by searching Young Athlete Program at Kean University on YouTube.
- The next New Jersey Occupational Therapy Annual Conference is scheduled to be held on Kean's campus in our new Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) building with a beautiful roof top view of New York City. Further details will be announced shortly.
Many of you have remained connected to Kean by supervising our students, presenting a lecture, or collaborating on community projects. Now, we are asking you to invest in the future of OT at Kean by supporting the Annual Giving Campaign. Funds raised through this initiative will create opportunities for our students, as well as enhance and establish additional programs such as the ones listed above. You can also support our students through two active memorial scholarships honoring Dr. Karen Stern and Kathy Hering Brady.
Please show your pride in Kean and our OT department by sending in your gift today. You can also make a secure online donation by going to www.keanfoundation.org/community_outreach. Should you have any questions, please call our Annual Giving Manager, Melissa Halpin, at (908)737.3479.
Thank you for making a difference.

Politically Declared Intension to Destroy National States by infinite Mass Immigration and Violence: The Impact of the Euromediterranean Process :
Posted By Anders On May 24, 2013 @ 00:04 In English, Euromed | No Comments
F[1] rom the Muslim Website The Persecution: Lenin, speaking about moving a cause forward, once said: "Probe with a bayonet: if you meet steel, stop. If you meet mush, then push."
LATEST: [2] Jyllands-Posten 25 May 2013: "The reckless muslim macho youth culture that the troublemakers and thugs of the night originate from knows no boundaries and does not worry about whether Danish or Swedish is spoken in the neighborhood. It unfolds where it does not meet significant resistance. (Mecca in 622 AD was bullied to submit to Islam by just about 3% Muslim thugs). In this light, Sweden is a paradise for the masked thugs. The problem is not material, but cultural. It stems from an abysmal difference between the mentality that created rich and well-functioning Sweden, and the foreign mentality that the aggressive part of immigrant youth exhibit. It is time to recognize the truth."
Denmark has similar problems: [3] Jyllands-Posten 25 May 2013 reports that in the Danish town of Slagelse, 6 buses and one car were set aflame last night. In[4] 2008 Noerrebro/Copenhagen ravaged by fire and riots for several days and the police was relegated. [5] Fire and riots time and again - last at [6] Noerrebro on 11 May 2013 (right). Every day brings new Muslim violence.
Abstract: Time and again, Muslim immigrants show us their hatred and contempt - by serious acts of violence and crime - according to the commandments of their Koran.
The reaction of our politicians is to invite more and more Muslims, to call protesters disgusting racists and tighten the grip of the police state. In this article, information by politicians and media - as well as statics are given, which clearly show this chaotic development is aimed at paving the way of the NWO at the cost of the old order. This is about the greatest betrayal of mankind by its political class in history.
The underlying program is the Euro-Mediterranean Process - which is by and large unknown to the public due to the NWO bought/intimidated mass media.
In Boston [7] 2 Muslim brothers bombed a Marathon on 15 April 2013.
[8] In London, 2 Muslims run over and attack a British soldier with their car - then[9] hack him into pieces, even [9] beheading him in front of scores of terrified eyewitnesses. Then swinging a machete, they cried out :"'The only reason we have killed this man today is because Muslims are dying daily by British soldiers. You and your children will be next"
A S[10] wedish female integration chief held her hand out to shake hands with her new apprentice. But alas, he was a Muslim and took offence by shaking hands with an infidel woman - so he denied to take her hand. Then the female chief told him that if he could not shake hands with men and women alike - he could stay away. And the municipality? It gave the female chief a warning - and the Muslim
Right: one of the two London killers, Michael Abdolajo, was mad with Islam - [12] having listened to a famous hate preacher and [13] here and [14] here- who so far could not be expelled from the UK for judicial reasons!!!
A Christian former Muslim vicar was refused to give a speech in a Danish Church, because his attitude that Islamists and Christians cannot go together to religious meetings" This is in contrast with the opinion of the Danish Church!", said the chairman of the parochial church council. But in another Danish Church, a radical Islamist Imam, a converted Dane, was invited to give the Whitsun sermon! ([15] Kristeligt Dagblad 22 May 2013).
In Stockholm´s suburbs, for the 4. night in a row, "youngsters" - i.e. descendants of Muslim immigrants -
are vandalizing the districts, burning cars and restaurants - throwing stones at firemen and police. Last week the police had to shoot a machete swinging 69-year-old
immigrant ([16] Jyllands-Posten 23 May 2013).
The politicians only react by increasing Muslim immigration, scolding protesters to be disgusting racists and by tightening the police state to [17] stop indigenous peoples from rebelling - knowing that the above is just in accordance with the commandments of the "Holy Koran". In London, the assassination comes at a very opportune moment: Last month, a "snooper charter" bill allowing access to surveil all telephone and internet communications could not be passed. Now the entire political class demands this law!! This is an affront by politicians to their own constituencies. The world is insane - or is there a very evil and dirty plan behind? Yes, there is, as. we shall now see. And the Evil spirit behind it all is Chaos is the [18] NWO and its Euromediterranean Process. Due to this process, the [19] EU has imposed tight censorship on the MSM.
The number of asylum seekers in Denmark may rise to the highest figure for 10 years ([20] Kristeligt Dagblad 16 May 2013), viz. up to 7000. And it has a diabolical reason - as declared by ministers, parlamentarians, high ranking officials and public statistics. The latest is the confession by Lord Peter Mandelson. I will bring/reiterate the confessions and statistical proofs below.
[21] 1. [22] The Daily Mail 14 May 2013: Labour sent out 'search parties' for immigrants to get them to come to the UK, former Labour cabinet minister, Lord Peter Mandelson has admitted.
Right Peter Mandelson (former EU Commissioner and [23] Nathaniel Rothschild´s intimate. He was not the only one to brain drain developing countries: [24] The EU established "job centres" in e.g. Mali in 2008 to entice 56 mio. Africans (+ their families) to come to Europe - where unemployment among indigenous Europeans is rocketing.
Between 1997 and 2010, net migration to Britain totalled more than 2.2million, more than twice the population of Birmingham. 'We have to just realise… entry to the labour market of many people of non-British origin is hard for people who are finding it very difficult to find jobs, who find it hard to keep jobs.
2. [25] 22. Juni 2012 former EU Commissioner, Chairman of Goldman Sachs and BP, [26] Bilderberger board member and [27] honorary chairman of The [28] Trilateral Commission - now migration chief of the UN, Peter Sutherland, said that the EU "should do its best to undermine the" homogeneity" of its member states . He called on EU states to
stop targeting" highly skilled "migrants, arguing that "everyone should have the freedom to choose which country he will work or study in"!
Left: Peter Sutherland. Right Cecilia Malmström.
3. EU Commissioner Cecilia Malmström: I[29] 've worked to eradicate the term 'illegal immigrant' from all commission docs. [30] Malmström says migration is an opportunity - no threat! And brave [31] Cecilia Malmström, pledges to do her best to protect multiculturalists (and their criminal acts) against terrorists - us!
[32] Cecilia Malmström 9 May 2013: Migrants and refugees have a pool of skills and talents which is untapped and we need to make use of it. (largely disproven over 40 Years, see below). (Immigration) breeds a fertile ground for xenophobic and populist and even racist movements. This requires leadership. We do want an inclusive Europe.
Our demographic development is indeed a huge challenge for the future. I am very happy that we will very soon have common rules and standards on how to receive people who are asking for protection. Let me stress that many of these people are skilled and they must be given a possibility to realize and fulfil their potential in their new countries. Comment: Will Ms. Malmström go to a Kabul educated doctor with her future diseases - possibly let him operate on her? Otherwise she is a hypocrite.
4. Vendsyssel Tidende 19-1-1975: Former editor, former assistant press and cultural attaché in Paris and the Danish representative in the UNESCO, J. Stenberg-Rasmussen:
[33] Some time ago I was sitting in Parliament conversating with a parliamentarian (Johan Nielsen, Soc.dem., Faroe Islands). He said: "There is a line from efforts to reduce the Danish birth rate as much as possible using pills, abortions, etc., and from the attempt to destroy the Danish youth with drugs and further to call for tens of thousands of Asians and other completely strange people to an insidious halfway secretive work here in Parliament to make it easier to obtain Danish citizenship. The purpose is to provide a basis for a complete overthrow of the Danish society and to pull its roots in the historical past out."
5. [34] The Daily Mail 24 Oct. 2009: Andrew Neather, a speechwriter who worked in Downing Street for Tony Blair and in the Home Office for Jack Straw and David Blunkett, said Labour's relaxation of controlsin the beginning of this century was a plan to 'open up the UK to mass migration'. Ministers hoped to change the country radically and 'rub the Right's nose in diversity'. But Mr Neather said senior Labour figures were reluctant to discuss the policy, fearing it would alienate its 'core working-class voters.
And Labour´s treason against the British people is achieving its aim:[35] The Daily Mail 11 Dec. 2012: Just 44.9% of Londoners are White British, according to census data.[36] The Express 2 May 2013 reports the effect of [37] decades of immigration and claims that white Britons will be in a minority by 2066. (exactly 1000 years after England was last conquered - by William the Conqueror).
6. The[38] European Committee of the Danish Parliament: In 2000 A.D.there were 12.514 family reunifications.
[39] Kristeligt Dagblad 1 Febr. 2013: Since July, the number of family reunifications has increased every month - from 145 people in June to 510 in December. In the context of the new legislation on family reunification, the Ministry of Justice in May assessed that the new rules would lead to approximately 1,000 additional family reunions annually.
[40] In the year 2012, there were 6,196 applications for family reunification. But there were 57,982 non-Danish "students" from every possible and impossible countries registered in Denmark. [41] In 2012, 3,170 permits for family reunification were granted - and 1,225 refusals given.
[42] Rockwool Foundation 2009: Women from
Somalia gave birth to an average of 4.43 children, while the fertility rates for
women from Pakistan, Turkey and the former Yugoslavia were 3.10, 2.20 and 2.17 children respectively. A Danish woman gets 1.75 children on an average.[43]
Impoverishing countries through mass immigration
[44] Aftenposten 19 May 2013: Each non-western immigrant costs Norway about 4.1 million NKR on an average in a lifetime. Meanwhile the profitable western immigration (plus 800,000 per Immigrant) is zeroed by the unprofitable easteuropean immigration (minus 800,000 per Immigrant).
Summed up, this means that the immigration of 15,400 non-Western people last year will cost Norway 63 billion NKR: "accrued and future net costs of non-western immigrants and their children who are already in Norway, are estimated at 1200 billion. If non-Western immigration continues at the level of the last five years, the total costs add up to 4100 billion net. It corresponds to the value of the Pension Fund and the State´s Statoil shares, "says Norway´s Statistics and the Finansavisen.
I have previously reported that [46] mass mmigration costs Denmark at least 100 bn DKR annually - and in 2001 amounted to 30% of [47] Denmark´s and [48] Sweden´ state budgets
This means one asylum seeker will easily be multiplied by a factor of 3 after family reunification. And how many asylum seekers from non-western countries have just one child? The factual figure for reunified person is certainly much higher - probably nearer the figure of the year 2000, i.e. 12.500 reunifications + the immigrant in Denmark.
The above facts are verifiable NWO statements that the main purpose of the mass immigration is to tear down the old order in a sea of multiculturalism without boundaries. For just listen to the videos in the right margin of this blog: The Illuminati keep talking about their New World Order and world governance - acc. to EU Council President van Rompuy in existence since 2009 (video above).
Their success depends, however, on how soon they can replace us demographically and culturally by multiculturalism - i.e. in practice Islam´s Sharia. They are really doing their worst to deceive us sleepers by stealth.

It's The Greatest "Must See" Drama Of All Time And You Just Might Be Missing It (VIDEO)
When you're glued to the latest series of a show like Game of Thrones, caught up in the drama, the twists and turns of the plot, you may be missing the most intricate, massive drama imaginable; the one happening all around you, in real time.
We stand at the end of an epoch, at the end of a civilization, at the end of an empire, at the start of something else. Nobody knows what will happen in the next season but people have got some inklings. Take a look around and see the stories you might be missing. The world is awash with slaves, and all of them are heroes waiting to happen.

For a while, the market seems to like Ben Bernanke's speech at Jackson Hole.
In reality, the speech offers nothing particularly new from the beginning to the end, and the last sentence (which seems to be the only sentence that everyone cares) only repeats that the Fed will do more if needed.
Surely we have heard that many times now, but it seemed to be enough to make Jon Hilsenrath of WSJ excited to a point that he made everyone excited after all. Whatever…
While the US market looks happy and hovering at the highs, the glaring divergence between US and Chinese equities remains as glaring as it could get. While S&P 500 remains resilient, Shanghai Composite have been making new closing lows for three straight days.
We will have the official China manufacturing PMI tomorrow morning in China/Hong Kong Time. As a reminder, HSBC/Markit flash estimate was awful.
The chart below shows that glaring divergence, with both indices rebased to 100 on March 2009 (i.e. the S&P 500 bottom).

Google admits it tracked user location data even when the setting was turned off
Android phones gather your location data and send it to Google, even if you've turned off location services and don't have a SIM card, Quartz reported today.
The term "location services" oftentimes refers to exact GPS data for app usage, such as Google Maps finding your best commute route, or Uber figuring out exactly where you're standing to let drivers know your pickup point. Quartz's report details a practice in which Google was able to track user locations by triangulating which cell towers were currently servicing a specific device.
It's a practice that customers can't opt out of
Since January, all kinds of Android phones and tablets have been collecting the addresses of nearby cellular towers and sending the encrypted data to Google's push notifications and messaging management system when connected to the internet. It's a practice that customers can't opt out of — even if their phones are factory reset.
A Google spokesperson said in a statement to The Verge that all modern Android phones use a network sync system that requires mobile country codes and mobile network codes, so tower info called "Cell ID" codes were considered an "additional signal to further improve the speed and performance of message delivery." Google ultimately discarded the cell tower data and didn't go through with the original plan.
A source familiar with the matter stated that Google added the cell tower data-collecting feature to improve its Firebase Cloud Messaging, where devices have to ping the server at regular intervals in order to receive messages promptly.

More back foot pressure, less front foot pressure. Getting use to the quick response to front to back weight changes, helps reduce the errors in front foot pressure and water spray. It never goes away completely though. Even pickle forks throw water in the face. Some boards never do, but those are usually narrow tail boards.On 2002-08-27 10:36, jever98 wrote:

Dwight, what did you change in your technique to prevent the front fin from catching?
I was using the 147 with 35 mm fins.
On Martin Vari's WT's he has his fins mounted further toward the middle. The Underground guys don't like the way a Vari board rides. I don't know why Martin mounts his fins further in, or what it does.On 2002-08-27 12:55, jever98 wrote:

Only kidding...
He did that on his older boards. If you look around on the web you'll see him with the Slingshot fin arrangement, then the one you saw, then just 4 fins located more in from the rail. Adrian is making him some new extra short boards now.On 2002-08-28 01:02, Anonymous wrote:

Thats interesting, I am of the general opinion the faster kites depower to easily with smaller boards - i.e it's to easy in rough conditions to force the kite to the edge of the window.On 2002-08-28 01:28, Dwight wrote:

I've been told the new generation of really fast kites do well with smaller boards than what we ride today. Maybe go small with an eye toward the future.

Apartments in London, England.
Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament
Londons streets may not exactly be paved with gold, but they are rich in history, having seen everything from the Great Fire of London in 1666 to the Great Exhibition in 1851. Today, you cant fail to stumble upon the legacy of Londons past whether youre gazing up at the world famous Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament in the centre of this great city or visiting Hogarths house on the outskirts of west London
The architectural ingredients that go to make up the capital are quite a visual feast, ranging from the elegant Georgian squares and terraces of Bloomsbury and Mayfair to the rather more austere Victorian wharves and warehouses of Londons East End.
But perhaps one of Londons greatest charms lies in the fact that even relatively mundane artifacts such as street signs and pillar boxes reveal something interesting about Londons past.
London is really no more than a collection of villages that have spilled over into one another. But thats not to say that each hasnt retained its own distinct character, nor does it mean that many Londons villages are not still clearly visible today.

I am back to share a bright and bold art journal layout with you.
I was inspired by the Simon Says Stamp Bold Challenge. I started out with lots of background stamping.
I then watered down some fluorescent acrylic paint and brushed that over the stamps. I did not want a thick layer pf paint covering up my stamps. I spritz the paint with water while it was still wet so it dripped down the page.
I then adhered in my photos from the week and added in some journaling.
I decided the page still needed something and came across some foil tape stars. The stars were originally silver and that did not really go with the page, so I colored them black with a Copic marker.
Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed my Bright, Bold Layout!

Bright and Bold
1 comment:
I really like how your pages turned out and I very much appreciated the technique pictures and descriptive write-up. How clever to stamp your images first and then add some watered-down paint. Love those drips, too! I think your bold colors look amazing against your photos and it's always a joy to see what clever ideas you've thought up. Great job on this and I'm so glad you shared your talents with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!ReplyDelete

The short answer is, no.
The longer answer is that we want to make sure that every end-user of a V|V in the Visual Vocal mobile VR application has the same experience. If we were to allow editing of a V|V after publishing, different users would see different content, depending on when they experienced the V|V.
We highly recommend that you first create a "test" V|V, to which you only invite people in your own organization, in order to tweak, tune, and finalize all images, content arrangements, and text descriptions, before publishing to end-users.

M. Craft is performing his latest album, 'Blood Moon', in its entirety at an intimate headline show at the Forge in Camden on 2 February.
Tickets are available now.
Released in June 2016, Craft's third LP was influenced by the seclusion he experiences living in a cabin on the edge of the Mojave desert.
"The silence around Joshua Tree is otherworldly, deep, almost impossible," Craft reveals. "But once immersed in this silence, you notice that it's not really silence at all. Little flecks of sound, which would have gone unheard on a city street corner, become like splashes of neon. The rustle of wind in a smoke tree, the hoot of an owl, the beating wings of a passing crow, all become vivid, important. Musical."
Drawing inspiration from the blood moon, the album began as a series of unstructured, experimental piano pieces.
"I'd long been planning a piano-based record and I found a recording studio in Echo Park with a hundred-year-old Mason and Hamlin concert grand piano," explains Craft. "I simply sat down and improvised, with no plans or direction. Over a few months of these sessions, I ended up with several hour-long pieces of piano music. Taking everything back to the desert, I started to carve shapes from these pieces and songs started to form."
Featuring songs like 'Chemical Trails', 'Blood Moon' has been compared to Talk Talk's 'Laughing Stock' and Sufjan Stevens' 'Seven Swans', but its uniquely Craft's.
"I hope the record takes the listener off into the clear night air of Joshua Tree, that profound, neon-flecked silence, the star-spangled skies of the Mojave desert, under that lonely little sphere of rock caught in a red shadow."

While guest-heavy sets are commonplace at Coachella, breakthrough artist Anderson .Paak really brought the firepower last night, enlisting the help of Dr. Dre and Kendrick Lamar.
The N.W.A. legend — while donning a t-shirt dedicated to Prince — took the stage to perform a trio of songs in "California Love," "Still D.R.E.", and "The Next Episode". Meanwhile, the Compton MC got the crowd going by unfurling good kid, m.A.A.d city standout "Backseat Freestyle".
Check out pics and fan-caught clips of the collaboration below.
D.R.E.: STILL reppin' 213 … and Prince (@coachella #weekend2 w/ @anderson._paak, 4.24.16) @drdre #andersonpaak #drdre #prince #RIPPrince #stilldre #coachella #coachella2016 #Princechella #itaintoveryet #musicfestival #goldenvoice #festivalphotography #livemusicphotography #concertphotography #phoneedit
Additionally, Paak has shared a behind-the-scenes video of how the Coachella weekend two collaborations came together.
Paak owes quite a bit of his recent success to Dre; the veteran rapper-proudcer brought Paak on to contribute to last year's Compton album.
King Kendrick also showed some love to another N.W.A. member this past weekend, as he joined Ice Cube to perform the anthemic "Alright".

Open Thread: Talk About What Matters Most to You
Discuss and debate the issues that mean the most to you.
"What are you?"
It seems like an innocent enough question, right? For most people, it would merit at best, a chipper "A cocktail waitress!" or "
Emotionally unbalanced
!" But, as much as I wish strangers were asking me about my job, affiliations, or precarious mental state, I know the score: They're asking about my ethnicity, and not even because they suspect they might be my biological parents.
Since the day I was born, I've had speculation about my heritage. My parents, who were both tall, tan blondes, often joked that the small, redheaded baby they had given birth to might have been the fault of a hospital's negligence.
In fact, directly before my father underwent surgery for colon cancer, he grabbed my hand and said, "If anything happens, I want you to know I'm not you're real father." When confronted about it post-surgery, he said, "Don't be such a f**king drag. That's just how we joke."
While it's one thing to have your own family jokingly question your parentage, it's quite another when the questions come at you from strangers. For me, it happens all the time.
For all practical purposes, I'm a white woman. My grandmother is a German immigrant, her husband's parents were also European immigrants, and my great-grandparents on my father's side are actually, documented members of the Choctaw and Cherokee tribes. A good deal of my genetic makeup has been lost to history. But on any given day, I'll readily admit that I'm a born-and-raised American -- I think of my looks as more Campbell's Soup kids than anything anybody is still deem "exotic" these days, although thankfully use of that particular term is ebbing a little.
But like a lot of people, I never realized that just having AN appearance was an open call for people to guess my ethnicity, or to give me their (usually kind of racist) reason for making their case for my background known.
The first time this happened, I was about 12. While I'd had creeps and other oddballs comment on my looks during my pre-pubescent faze, it wasn't until my hair sprung ringlets in my tween days that I began fielding questions about my ethnic makeup.
My friends and I used to hang out on St. Mark's Place in New York's East Village. While it's little more than a Supercuts and a bunch of karaoke bars these days, it used to be a fun place to do everything from buy drugs to get full-body piercings. It was here that one day, as I walked down the street toward my favorite no-ID required bar, I heard a woman yelling for me.
"Red!" she screamed. "Yo, Red, get back here."
I turned around to see a woman braiding hair on the sidewalk, beckoning to me. As I approached, she said, "What are you doing with that booty girl? Is your daddy black?"
Puzzled, I shook my head. "I think you got some black in you," she continued. "That booty is round, your nose is a little wide, and your hair is kinky."
"Well, OK!" I responded, and proceeded to walk down the street.
"Come back and see me if you want something done about that hair!" she yelled.
As I grew older, strangers began asking with increasing regularity. At a dinner party my mother was hosting, a guest asked my mother's friend, "Is that redheaded one theirs? She's so unusual looking." When I went to a new tailor to have some dresses altered, he told me, "I know you're Puerto Rican, with those curves."
St. Patrick's day has come to be my least favorite day of the year. While I am a die-hard fan of both alcoholism and poor decisions, the question of my ethnic heritage inevitably comes up. And by "comes up," I mean is shouted at me by someone in a Packers jersey as tiny drops of green beer fly from his pungent mouth into my open eyes. (Also, I don't know if this is a tradition, or just a convenient way of staying up while shitfaced drunk, but every St. Patrick's day, at least one asshole has to make some joke about my flame-haired funpocket.)
It's especialy strange that this is still happening in New York, where it isn't like nobody has seen an person of a different ethnicity before. I was raised here, but I still get, "Where are you from? I can't place that accent," or "But what language did you speak at home?"
Any "accent" I have is only attributable to my very American parents (Arkansas good ol' boy and combination WASPy-New-England/that thing Madonna's doing), but few people seem to pick up on what I think are glaring New Yorkisms.
Even the people who get my ethnic makeup right are unsettling. This is rare, because my looks do not correspond with the stereotypical looks of the groups who make up my ethnic background. But, because I don't hold any race in esteem above others, people who guess right are as bad as the ones who are way off. Usually because they almost always have a lot of thoughts on it.
Take the cab driver I had a few months ago who noted, "I know what you are," as I took a seat in the back. "You're German, right? Very good people, the Germans." Which is kind of alarming, as a statement, but not one I was ready to get into with him. So I nodded. "You're pretty," he went on. "And you know why?"
I shook my head.
"Because your people are good. They're like my people, the Bangladeshi. They don't mix with others, so your skin is snow white."
At that point, I told him to stop, paid my fare and motored, rather than further any conversation about the benefits of racial purity.
My real concern is the intimacy of the question, which may be lost on some of the askers. It's culturally rude to ask someone's age, and I doubt most strangers would call out to a stranger about her blood type or religion on the street. But when it comes to issues of race and looks, it seems like people are an open book.
There are even multiple online communities dedicated solely to posting photos of babies of various ethnic makeups, and others that expain the provenance of mixed-race celebrities and even ones who date outside their races.
Sure, it can be fascinating. Our ancestors came here from all over the world, and there are whole (albeit boring) shows dedicated to celebrities delighting in the discovery that their great-great grandfather was a Pakistani pirate abolitionist. But for the rest of us, it shouldn't be something we're obligated to address.
How has this, of all things, become acceptable? Can't we assume that this is something that, while not a cause for shame, is assumed to be private? You know, like how asking a woman how much she weighs is a felony in most states.
