Woody Allen is a director with an absorbing past but an uncertain present. He's best known for inventing the genre of the rom-com with Annie Hall and many other innovative films. He is sadly also known for a hell of a lot of rubbish. Who remembers Match Point, for example?
The opening of Midnight in Paris gives the impression of a rather well-meaning love story between a place and a person. Gil (Owen Wilson) is raving about the wonders of Paris with the kind of marvel reserved only for liberal Americans who see nothing but wonder in the curious European ways. He happens to be a writer who's moved from film screenplays to finally writing the great novel he has always promised himself to write, much to the chagrin of his soon to be wife, Inez (Rachel McAdams). Inez wants him to grow out of this phase and finally be less of a figure of embarrassment to her right-wing parents. One rather fantastic scene occurs when they have a family meal in a typical Parisian Bistro and the father mentions the only reason he has gone to Paris is for the takeover of a French company. Gil then gives a rather sweet speech about how even though they are divided politically, they still respect each other and the only reply is a stony silence.
The most interesting aspect of the movie is Gil's belief that 1920s artistic Paris is where he would love to stay forever. He feels at home and holds the core belief that things are better in the past and the difficulty of squaring that with the present creates quite a conservative idea. This is challenged constantly especially by his friend, Paul (played by Michael Sheen who is completely unrecognisable). This eventually results in a very polite argument that leads to Gil wandering around Parisian streets trying to find his way back to the hotel. He's astonished to discover his 1920s literary heroes such as Zelda Fitzgerald and various significant figures from the period. The movie concentrates on his experiences with his various heroes of this lost generation and they assist him with his great novel.
To really appreciate this movie you have to have a pretty good understanding of 1920s art and its major figures as pretty much all of them feature, including a fantastic Dali (Adrian Brody). He also encounters Ernest Hemmingway who is certainly the movie's most fun character. Gils disappearances at night and how he explains it to his family is particularly well done and the impact of his midnight wanderings on his day time jaunts is very enjoyable, such as they result in him meeting two very pretty French women played by Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, and Léa Seydoux.
This movie has many faults as it is completely unapproachable unless you have a fairly extensive knowledge of the artists and authors of the period to really get many of the jokes. It focuses on Paris and although pretty, it lacks depth and feels like 'the Paris of movies' despite being filmed on location. The Paris of Moulin Rouge or an American in Paris has vastly more depth and makes better use of the idea of Paris as an artistic hotbed but with huge issues and social disturbance. I was very surprised that the only reference to World War One was when Hemmingway was talking about his book considering its massive impact in the art world. Really, there should have been more references. It's got a rather dispiriting travelogue feeling, perhaps because the city of Paris on display is so familiar and cliched, which never felt so apparent in the much better and more subtle Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
The humour is not so sharp either. I also get the nagging feeling that he managed to get this fantastic cast but doesn't quite know what do with all their talents. I could have done with far more of Adrian Brody on screen, for example. There's the great feeling that Allen could have taken his idea even further if he wanted to. But as a filmic idea, it's wonderful. Owen Wilson's really got an existential Jewish angst which is a common theme in his male leads but the way it's done looks so unlike Woody Allen, making it seem fresh even though this character has been in almost every movie he has done.
Despite this torrent of criticism it's not a bad movie and it's not comparable to some of his shockers but it's just not a patch on his best. Its lazy and unapproachable but if you stick with it you can gain some enjoyment and pretend Vicky Christina Barcelona doesn't exist otherwise you have the nagging feeling that you should be enjoying it far more. The arrival of the magical realism is at least a nice break from traditional the rom-com. It has some nice ideas trying to get out and is almost a return to form, but sadly contains a fair few sizable faults.
Midnight in Paris is out now in the UK. Running time 94 minutes. Certificate 12A (UK)

Baton Rouge Zoo's Tiger Cubs Make Their First Public Debut
With Cubs Now on Exhibit, the Zoo Looks to Community for Help in Naming
Baton Rouge, LA—The two female Malayan tiger cubs born at BREC's Baton Rouge Zoo in late July are now out of their den and on exhibit for public view. The cubs are accompanied in the exhibit by their mother and can be seen during normal Zoo operating hours until 4 p.m., weather permitting.
"We've gotten calls and messages for months now asking when the cubs were going to come out," said Sam Winslow, Assistant Director and General Curator. "They have grown exponentially over the past three months and have become very mobile and independent. This week, we gave our adult female the opportunity to bring them out into the exhibit. It has gone well and the cubs seem to be enjoying all the new sights and sounds."
The Zoo is now asking for the public's help in naming the two cubs. Name suggestions can be submitted via the Zoo's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages now through November 21. The submissions will then be narrowed to a list of four finalists and the community will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite. Although there are no official rules regarding the suggested names, Malaysian names have a better chance of being selected, in respect of the origin of the species.
The cubs were born to the Zoo's female Malayan tiger, who came to the Zoo in 2009 from the Fort Worth Zoo, and the Zoo's male Malayan tiger, who arrived from the Little Rock Zoo in 2012. Tiger cubs typically stay in a den with their mother for eight to twelve weeks and will venture out on exhibit only after they are strong enough to navigate the space independently.
The Malayan subspecies was first recognized in 2004. With an estimated 500 or fewer existing in the wild, they are currently identified as Endangered with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Zoos accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) have recognized this critical problem
and have pooled resources to help maintain a sustainable, genetically diverse tiger population for their wild counterparts through the Species Survival Plan (SSP). There are currently 104 institutions involved in this effort with 49 focused on Amur tigers, 28 on Sumatran tigers and 27 on Malayan tigers. Of those institutions, six successfully bred tigers in the past eight months for a total of 19 cub births.

Caution with Chemicals in the Workplace
When working in any industry where a serious accident could occur on the job, safety is absolutely paramount. This is especially true if your line of work finds you in a laboratory working with dangerous and/or sensitive materials such as chemicals. However, not all laboratories or lab managers are as thorough with safety training as is needed, and some researchers may not be as attentive as they should be during training. Nevertheless, safety remains a top concern for those working in these particular fields, so we've gathered some data on the industries that see the most injuries and have put together some tips to always keep in mind when working with hazardous chemicals in the workplace.

Posted in Story Time
The day my mom washed away a piece of art. That piece of art I've been working on for two years. It began, well, two years ago. This art piece began as a humble black/ heavy navy canvas, as I worked on it more, it took shape of what I went through on a daily basis, almost like mirror reflecting my inner colors. Such things as weather, my materialistic desires, and my dietary consumption affected every stroke and shading being incorporated into my art. I would spend at least once a week putting time into this art. A funny thing is, certain things in my life would cause very specific turn out that day on my piece of art. The more money I had, the shades would fade towards lighter blue and almost white. The more I didn't talk or communicate to others more squares and rectangular were embedded into the fading blacks and blues. The more I didn't listen to music and fasted my musical urges I had curves and circles added. Just when this piece was becoming more and more mature and becoming a masterpiece to me the unthinkable happens.
Mom meet art, art meet mom, stay friends just don't touch each other. I should've known this rule would be broken, one thing led to another and things happened. I must have forgetting my mom's tendencies because I've been away at college for so long. She probably picked it up, picked at it, touched it, and smelled it and realized how 'dirty' it was to her. So she decided to wash my art. It was almost like an epi-epidermis to my epidermis, was the bookbag for my books, my scrotum to my nuts. She wasted my one-of-a-kind denim. That's right I said it denim. Some of you out there are thinking ' what's this baby crying about?!' and a very select few out there are up with one fist in the air, feeling my pain. For those very few, I pump my fist in the air too.
I called it the one-of-a-kind denim, not because it's a limited edition x collab from a high end Japanese denim factory. I call it my one-of-a-kind because there is literally none like it out there, it was MINE. Now it's ruined. This now gives me an excuse to go grab another pair. Thanks but no thanks mom.

For too many years, surfers have felt barred from the act of creating their own boards. The industry that grew up around surfing after the 1950's (and the industrialized materials brought with it) made it seem like this once common practice - part of every surfer's experience at one time - was out of reach. We disagree. So we've found three ways that we can help you build your own at home: HomeGrown Surfboard Kits, Booster Blanks and Paper Plans.
If you live outside the U.S. we've also got you covered. We can ship just about anywhere in the world (see International FAQs) and in Europe, you can get Grain Surfboards' HomeGrown kits, marine-ply framesets and paper plans directly from our British friends at Fyne Boat Kits. Same Grain quality, but planks are of locally grown woods (rather than Maine cedar) milled up in their cool boatshop in Cumberland.
Most of the boards in our line are offered as complete kits. Each kit contains all of the material you need to build your board, including precision-cut frameset, cedar planks and rail strips, all internal blocking, fin box, leash plug, vent, glue, epoxy, fiberglass, rubber gloves and more. It also includes a 170 page instruction that walks you though each step of the process.
These are the same high-quality parts we use at the Grain home base in York, Maine.
If you're good with your hands, can work carefully with an attention to detail and follow written instructions, then you'll love the feeling of dropping into your first wave on a Homegrown Surfboard Kit you built yourself. It's indescribable.
We developed our kits before wood surfboard kits existed anywhere else, and from the beginning, we've wanted them to be complete, comprehensible and above all, do-able. We support our kit builders by phone, email, and in person (we're not shy about stopping by to see how you're doing if we're in your neighborhood). We love this process, and we want every surfer to get the same experience we've had, and to paddle out, incredulous, on a gorgeous board they built themselves.
Note: Before you decide on a surfboard kit from someone else, make sure you understand the total cost of the component materials you'll have to source and buy separately, as well as the time it will take to fill in the gaps of knowledge that aren't covered in their manual. Usually, we'll get them out within a week or two, but allow three weeks, let us know if there's a rush, and please be patient - once in a while we have a shortage of materials and have to wait for something to come in.
You can find tools and other board building supplies and materials you might need in our online store.
If you're looking for a smaller project to get your feet wet, check out our Handplane Kits or Booster Blanks.
If you don't need the guidance and support that comes with a full surfboard kit, we've developed a complete set of plans printed on plotter paper that will get you well on your way to a great board.
On our paper plans we've printed full-scale keel and frames, nose and tail templates, board outline, and a few construction detail notes. We also include a 46-page guide that covers the high points of the building process including dimensions to mill your planks and rails and an outline of the construction method. Buy your own spray adhesive, jigsaw and plywood, and get creative with re-purposed or reclaimed wood, exotic species - let your creativity guide you.
SOMETHING YOU NEED TO KNOW: We designed these plans for a limited number of builders, they are NOT for everyone. We intend them to help those who:
Please consider carefully whether you can manage to build your own with no guidance other than your own experience, ingenuity, our 46-page guide and the advice of friends.
Plans are not just an inexpensive form of our kit - no wood is included.
For those who haven't built a board like this before, we recommend starting with a complete Homegrown Kit or a class. Above all, we want you to be successful in building your own board, so if you buy plans and then decide it's over your head, we'll credit $50 toward the purchase price of a full Homegrown Kit. Just call us and we'll take care of it.
Don't think you have time, space or skill for a full-on HomeGrown Kit board building project? We hear you. But if you still want to get dirty, You can still get the feel of building your own with Wood Board Blanks in select sizes. Similar in concept to the foam blanks that have been the standard of the surf industry for fifty years, our Booster Blanks are much closer to the finished shape of the board. Most of the "shaping" consists of merely trimming the wood back to the curves established by the internal frame. "Shaping" no longer requires you to know the secrets of the masters – shaping a Grain Blank is easy because 90% of the design is already established by the frame, plus we'll add some helpful marks to guide you.
Now you can trim, shape and sand a blank that we build for you here in our shop from the same quality local woods we use in our own boards. Then you glass it using the included cloth, epoxy, cups, gloves and assorted doodads, or take it to your local glasser if you prefer. To help you along, our Board Builder's manual contains the most complete instruction on glassing wood boards in epoxy that we've ever seen, and
includes instruction on installing hardware, lam coats, hot coats, gloss coats, sanding, and more. Add a Grain HomeGrown logo as well as your own graphics printed on transparency or rice paper to make the board fully your own.
All you need is a shaping stand, a spokeshave, a sanding block, and some sandpaper. A few drill bits and a chisel or router may be handy if you'll be installing your own hardware. Check our store for any of these supplies, and if you can't find something, let us know and we'll help you out.
These are still hand-crafted surfboards, so give us eight weeks to get it to you, then another two weeks for you to shape and glass, and you're in the water with a lifetime board that surfs like no other you own. Look for Booster Blanks in the Buying Options on the board page of the model you want.
We have a range of ways we support you when you're building at home, including by email, phone or here at the shop.
You can also get all the supplies you might need from the Tools & Supplies section of our store.

Natural pain relief is in the mind
Whether it is dull, aching or sharp, pain offers a reminder that it is time to face what you have not yet faced. These unresolved memories are what we refer to in Yoga as samskara. Samskara are stored in your body, creating a disruption of prana flow (see part 1 in our series on Ayurvedic pain relief: The role of prana), which results in physical and mental weakness. The places where samskara are stored is where pain arises.
The sensation of pain is a reminder of your true purpose in life -- to grow as a spirit by fully experiencing all parts of your life, good and bad. When you take on another person's truth as your own, compromise your path or live against your nature, it will have an effect on some part of your life.
Samaskara can be obvious and easy to work through, or sometimes it can be challenging. If your life has been filtered through unresolved memories for a long time, you may not be aware of their existence except on the subtle, energetic realms where prana exists. Eventually the accumulation will catch up to you, whether through the physical sensation of pain or a dull numbness to life that leaves you wanting something else.
A meditation to relieve pain
One of the tools that inspired our Yoga student to remove her corset is our Intuitive Energy Practice. She learned three simple tools to use during meditation that allow her to release samskara and open up to who she really is. You can find a free download of the basic tools here, as well as several guided meditations that go deeper in the practice. The technique is simple and made up of three components:
- Ground into your body. Create an energetic cord from your first chakra (at the base of your spine) all the way to the center of the earth. Allow this grounding cord to anchor you in your physical body as you use the healing power of the earth to release.
- Release with a rose. Imagine a rose just beyond arm's length in front of you and allow it to be sticky in nature. Bring the rose into your aura and through the chakras and body, collecting anything that is causing you pain, whether it is physical or mental. When it is full, destroy the rose by tossing a bomb at it or lighting a match beneath it until it is fully dispersed.
- Fill up with a gold sun. Visualize a ball of healing golden light above your head. Set an intention for this energy, whether it is awareness, connection, or truth, and bring this golden sun in through your crown chakra and into all parts of your body and aura. Feel the nourishment filling up every part of you, especially those areas where you just released.
When the pain is coming from a samskara that has many layers in your body, it can take some time to get to the root. Use these tools during meditation to tune in to the emotions you are experiencing. Allow what you are feeling to flow through you and not stick. It can come and go easily when you let it. Remember that your emotions are not who you are, they are merely a movement of energy. Experience your emotions, but don't let them define your experience. Be an observer and notice what comes up and allow it to release.

Worcester resident Sherrye Weinstein remembers well the first time she saw a David Bowie concert.
"It hit me like a meteor! I was awestruck," she gushed. "It was the 'human' experience meets the 'divine' experience."
Weinstein, who moved permanently to Worcester in the '80s, was living in south New Jersey at the time, and the show was at Philadelphia's famed Tower Theatre.
"When I left the theatre, I couldn't talk," she said. "My friends were laughing." She claims to have seen Bowie in concert probably more than 100 times since then.
This kind of devotion is commonplace among David Bowie aficionados. Since that fateful evening, Weinstein has devoured everything 'Bowie' that crosses her path.
"It turned my life around in so many ways," she said. "It opened up my consciousness much further than it already was. I already had been leaning toward the mystical. He made me see life that was so much beyond the confines of everyday, mundane routine."
I also recall being deeply influenced by David Bowie. As guitarist of the local rock band Albatross, I felt his presence from another angle. The band performed a healthy dose of Bowie songs throughout the '70s, including "Moonage Daydream," "Suffragette City," "Rebel Rebel" and "Stay." The power chords that begin "Moonage Daydream" were an aphrodisiac in the hands of a young man. Standing beside singer Mike Lynch, who had a touch of androgyny himself, we strutted our stuff to the strains of Bowie, absorbing the power of his music. As each album came on the market, Bowie's fans were mesmerized by his surprising new personas. From Ziggy Stardust to Aladdin Sane, to the suited soul strutter on "Young Americans," he kept shedding and adopting personalities like a chameleon. It was incredibly daring. In a business which coveted replicating a successful formula, Bowie would have none of it. The young musicians in the local music scene took notice. His influence is insurmountable.
Weinstein expressed her devotion in other ways, too. An accomplished artist, she created a handful of pastel drawings of her hero back in the early days. Reprinted along with this article, the drawings are painstakingly accurate, capturing every detail of the look. I asked her to recall the circumstances of each drawing.
"The black and white one," she said. "Yeah, I would sit with my headphones on and listen to Bowie. I would focus on that paper and just go at it. I would feel like I was becoming him while I was drawing him. If my mom had called me down to dinner, she had a long wait."
She paused to sigh occasionally while describing the experience.
"The one with the cap and the jacket," Weinstein continued. "I had first moved to Worcester. I was sitting on my bed, just incessantly drawing. That one is pastels. It ended up being on display at the Stage Door."
These drawings exemplify the power of Bowie's influence over Weinstein. There were many others like her who fell under the spell.
"He was a compulsive creator, and he created right up until the end," Weinstein observed.
She mentioned his ability to outrace his demons. "He wouldn't allow himself to burn out. He was relentless. He pulled himself out of drugs and alcohol more than once."
Each phase of Bowie's career carried with it whatever was happening in his private life. He battled a vicious cocaine habit while recording "Station to Station," and it continued through his so-called Germany trilogy of albums, including the acclaimed "Low," as well as the classic "Heroes." Once he cleaned up his habit, he blasted into the 80s a full-fledged MTV star, enjoying huge success with "Let's Dance."
After two more follow up albums and giant tours, he grew disenchanted with mega stardom. His creative muse surfaced again heading into the nineties, and his personal life settled considerably with his marriage to supermodel Iman.
Bowie shut down his career in 2003 for 10 years. He virtually disappeared from sight. In 2013, he reemerged with the acclaimed album, "The Next Day." It was a statement that he had not lost his touch. Then came Blackstar, the remarkable final chapter of his career.
For a year and a half, Bowie knew the end was near, as he battled liver cancer. The new recording was apparently purposefully designed as a closing statement, the song Lazarus dealing directly with death. It includes the lines: "Look up here, I'm in heaven. I've got scars that can't be seen."
Weinstein, a believer in the afterlife, is sure Bowie is still with us.
"His star is shining so brightly. He's a supernova," she said. "I believe his life continues on the other side."
Statements like that put an exclamation point on David Bowie's influence. He went far beyond just being a rock star. His deep exploring, gender-bending, envelope-pushing career blew the doors off of conventional thinking. A true artist until the very end, his legacy stands tall.

The Museum of Modern Art presents an installation of two sculptures by New York artist and landscape designer PAULA HAYES (b. 1958). The installation NOCTURNE OF THE LIMAX MAXIMUS is on view in the MoMA's lobby through February 28, 2011. The work includes a fifteen-foot-long, wall-mounted horizontal sculpture called Slug, and a free-standing floor-to-ceiling structure titled Egg. .
The installation is organized by Ann Temkin, The Marie-Josée and Henry Kravis Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture, The Museum of Modern Art, in collaboration with the artist.
Since the 1990s, PAULA HAYES has produced botanical sculptures—organically shaped vessels made from blown glass, silicone, or acrylic, and filled with a rich variety of plant life—that expand upon the classic terrarium, both through their imaginative containers and the microcosmic universes within. For the MoMA project, Hayes began thinking about the concepts of fertility and fertilization. While working on her initial drawings, she was inspired by a documentary film portraying the intricate mating ritual of the Limax maximus, or Leopard slug (which takes place in early summer, usually during the night), and the fluid columnar forms that emerge during the process of fertilization. Slug and Egg are made in cast acrylic and hand-blown glass, and filled with vegetation. Aided by built-in lighting and weekly maintenance, these "living artworks" bring nature directly into the Museum as they challenge conventional definitions of sculpture.

While Republicans have rallied to find a legislative response to the murder of Kathryn Steinle, Politico reports that Senate Judiciary Republicans are divided on efforts to attach mandatory sentences to illegal immigrants who re-enter the U.S. following a deportation.
Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) would like to see legislation that would impose a mandatory minimum of five years on illegal immigrants who re-enter the country illegally after being deported. Last month Cruz introduced "Kate's Law" that would apply such minimums.
Meanwhile, Politico reports that Sens. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Jeff Flake (R-AZ), as critics of mandatory minimums for certain nonviolent crimes, are wary of applying them to illegal immigrants as well.
"That would not be something that I would be recommending," Politico quoted Flake on five year minimums for re-entry. "There may be some ways to accommodate some of those concerns, but not with mandatory minimums like that."
Steinle's murder in the sanctuary city of San Francisco — allegedly at the hands of a multiple deportee, illegal immigrant with a lengthy rap sheet — has spurred the effort to apply more aggressive punishments to illegal immigrants who return to the U.S. illegally after a previous deportation as well as moves to crack down on sanctuary cities that do not cooperate with federal immigration authorities.
Complicating matters for the GOP is its small 11-9 majority in the Senate Judiciary Committee. As Politico notes, the margin leaves little room for Republican dissent in committee.
According to Politico, Lee has so far been unwavering from his opposition to including mandatory minimums and has said he would oppose legislation that includes such a provision.
"We have to have enough votes to get a bill out of committee, and we'll have to deal with that when we deal with it," Grassley said. "I can't control anybody else's vote and there's other things other than just mandatory minimums that are important to get done so that's what we're gonna have to do."
Another Senate Judiciary Committee member, Sen. Thom Tillis expressed openness to both sides, but rationalized that concern over mandatory minimums is best reserved for U.S. citizens, not illegal immigrants.
"These are noncitizens violating our immigration laws," Politico quoted Tillis. "I think you can hold them to a different standard. Some may think it's a conflict; I look at these as people illegally entering and re-entering the country, and that's why I'm able to rationalize."
Last month the House passed legislation cracking down on sanctuary cities by restricting their federal law enforcement grants.

Participants are offered a rare opportunity to enrich their inner life and practice under the guidance of an experienced Zen Master.
Instruction is provided in sitting meditation posture, breathing techniques, walking meditation, and Ko-an meditation, to concentrate and awaken the mind.
According to Zen tradition, at a gathering of his disciples Shakyamuni Buddha probed the understanding of his followers about the ultimate goal of His teaching by holding a flower aloft before the assembly. Among the thousand assembled there, only Mahakasyapa is said to have understood the gesture and acknowledged it with a smile. Thereupon, the Enlightened One acknowledged the transmission of the right Dharma eye, the blissful mind of Nirvana and the ultimate reality to the Venerable Mahakasyapa.
The transmission is outside of the scriptures. It aims at the direct pointing at the mind for the perception of self-nature and attainment of enlightenment.
The Zen teaching traces its origin from this transmission. It remains a living tradition, passed on from master to disciple.
From the great traditions of Asia, Zen has found a new home in the hearts of many in North America and Europe.
Zen opens a whole world of possibilities for improving and appreciating ones day-to-day life through mindfulness and awareness of the moment.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and the U.S. Agency for International Development invite you to attend "Food Loss and Waste: Innovative Solutions to Feed the World." On the margins of the 70th U.N. General Assembly, this event will focus on the problem of global food loss and waste, an important component of President Obama's Feed the Future initiative. USDA Deputy Secretary Krysta Harden will gather with experts and stakeholders to highlight a range of interconnected solutions, including good governance, innovation, public-private partnerships, and markets.
High levels of food loss and waste, an amount which the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) estimates is 30 percent of the global food supply, strains our ability to sustainably nourish our growing population while also safeguarding our natural resources. Exciting new technologies and processes are beginning to tackle the root causes of the problem, including the difficult logistics of efficiently and effectively getting varying volumes of perishable food products to consumers. This event will enhance the solutions dialogue by convening a wide range of experts and stakeholders to closely examine emerging approaches for building networks to reduce food loss and waste.
Speakers will discuss how, when, and where to improve and deploy technologies that connect farmers to markets and, in some cases, create markets where none had previously existed. These markets generate income for farmers, improve food security and, in the process, reduce food loss and waste. Meanwhile, in situations where food donations are called for, technologies are connecting food donors, including farmers, manufacturers, distributors and retailers with food banks, pantries, and other charitable outlets.
This event will focus on three key elements of building networks to reduce food loss and waste:
- Good governance to encourage innovation,
- Technologies that link farmers with markets, and
- Technologies that connect excess wholesome food to food banks and pantries.
A continental breakfast will be provided.
Note: Please note that safe, wholesome food left over from breakfast will be appropriately donated to a local food bank.
We hope you can make it!

MUMBAI: Indian state-run Punjab National BankBSE -8.88 % said on Wednesday it had detected some "fraudulent and unauthorised" transactions worth about $1.77 billion at one of its branches in Mumbai.
The bank said in a regulatory filing the transactions were "for the benefit of a few select account holders with their apparent connivance" and that "based on these transactions other banks appear to have advanced money to these customers abroad."
PNBBSE -8.88 %, the country's second-biggest state-run lender and fourth-biggest overall by assets, did not name the people involved but said it had reported the deals to law enforcement agencies and would evaluate later whether it faces any liability arising out of the transactions.
"In the bank these transactions are contingent in nature and liability arising out of these on the bank shall be decided based on the law and genuineness of underlying transactions," PNB said, without giving further details.
PNB shares were trading 4.1 percent lower by 0420 GMT, having fallen as much as 5.7 percent in early trading. The main Mumbai market index was little changed.
PNB is already dealing with other allegations of fraudulent transactions. Last week, Indian federal agents said they had launched an investigation into billionaire jeweller Nirav Modi, one of the country's richest men, over accusations that he and others defrauded PNB of $44 million.

not like the ordinary car-launching, it brought up "Unlock Your Weekend Fashion Bazaar" POP UP PLAYGROUND with loads of music, a hint of fashion, and many other great things to do.
held last Saturday at Flavour Bliss Alam Sutera, a packed of fun - stylish folks were hanging around this super eye-candy car. they called themselves "All New Sienta" and practically have so many things to offer.
"modern, active, and fun" - the idea that passed my mind when i first saw All New Sienta.
despite of its sophisticated features, this family-friendly car has 7 seaters to accommodate your whole crew.
it also has a spacious space to fit your necessities.
at the event itself, i found many interesting things to catch up.
first thing first, there is a photo competition with tons of tempting gifts.
my girls and i would definitely not miss the opportunity (just because we love to be in the frame - duh), so here are a few shots you'd like to (at least) see.
then, my favourite moment appeared as these young, pretty girls started to show off a catchy collection by Lustig. the good thing is, we can purchase the collection directly at the POP UP PLAYGROUND itself. there are a few booths (including the ones that involved in the fashion show) that showcase handmade, unique fashion stuffs.
some snippets from the fashion show:
not to mention that there are familiar faces of actress and influencers who came to enliven the event. names like Diana Rikasari, Elle & Jess Yamada, Olivia Jensen, and Alice Norin are only a part of the big IT list.
all in all, this event was a blast. i had tons of fun and i believe everyone felt the same thing!
happy monday, everyone!
me in my new granny hair :)

After a run in distant Silli, Magic Bus has now rolled into the state capital.
Magic Bus India Foundation, a Mumbai-based NGO that promotes education through sports and currently looks after 250,000 marginalised children in India, is extending its services to Ranchi.
South Chotanagpur commissioner-cum-state sports secretary Vandana Dadel launched the Magic Bus education programme at Hatma Basti, a slum behind Ranchi College, on Tuesday.
The NGO distributed sports kit and uniforms among 50 boys and girls selected under the first phase of the project. The children played a football match at Hatma grounds to mark the occasion.
Initially, our educational initiative will cover 1,000 poor boys and girls in the age group of 7-15 years from four localities Hatma, Latma, Jorar and Jagannathpur, said Aveek Swarnkar, Magic Bus state head for Jharkhand.
The NGO will mentor the children in three stages learning, leading and earning.
Our target is to reach out to all marginalised boys and girls in the state capital in next three years, Swarnkar added.

In this episode Chris Risner and Thiago Almeida are joined by Anton Babadjanov, Program Manager on the API Management team. Anton joins us to go over some of the new features API Management has released since the team was last on the show over a year ago. Anton starts with a brief review of API Management and then jumps into the new features, starting with it's presence in the modern Azure portal including adding new APIs, examining the steps and policies used with individual APIs, testing API calls, and more. Included in this is a look at the new VNet support for API Management. Anton then goes over one of the more highly requested features: support for SOAP web services. Next we take a look at how Role Based Access Control has been set up to map to capabilities within API Management. Anton finishes by showing how you can now alter the look and feel of your developer portal using templates.

The hardware being explored here is just a tiny example of what can be utilized. Matching up a Proscan Android 7" Tablet, to a UHF/VHF/HF RTL-SDR Tuner Receiver to receive FM Radio is a snap, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. It's not just local Broadcast stations, the set-up potentially can tune in ANYTHING in the UHF & VHF part of the radio spectrum. Adding a tuned antenna other than the one that comes stock, tuned for Broadcast FM, you'll have a capable portable receiver for a huge part of the radio spectrum. Being that it's done on a portable Android Tablet demonstrates practicality & portability in spades.

NORC poll: Most think Trump meddled in Russia probe
The Post spoke with five people briefed on the inquiries, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the probe publicly. Investigators also are examining the dealings of Flynn. It is Trump versus Comey's testimony , Comey memos, intelligence community witnesses, and an NSA memo.


text: There are many ways you can help the Post in these very lean times. Volunteering your help to do yard care, snow removal, fish fry, bringing friends in to just relax or eat at the fish fry, cleaning all the toilets, and then the canteen is in need of many items at any given time such as:bar straws, napkins, cleaning items(toilet bowl cleaner, cleanser, Dawn dish soap, bleach,etc.), unopened bottles of liquor or wine, 12 or 14 oz. plastic clear cups, anything that you have seen lacking on our shelves. Right now the Post is struggling to get repair on the air conditioning in the canteen also. So as you can see it does take all of us to make this post work and keep working. Any suggestions or comments feel free to express them.

The Dark Fall – Lost Souls Soundtrack CD has finally been finalised. It's a 23 track collection of music from the latest game, by myself and composer Ben Gammons. The styles are mixed, just like the game itself, so expect some nostalgic soundscapes, urban horrors, and of course, little Amy herself, singing some of her little ditties. It's a surprisingly coherent listen, given that two of us worked on the soundtrack, and surprisingly relaxing!
My favourite are:
Power Returns: A kind of broken remix of the original Dark Fall theme; back in 2000, it was pleasant piece of harp music, by my friend Kevin MacNaughton, where as 'Lost Souls' sees the thing bent into a badly tuned nightmare, all broken plucks and discordant twangs. It's not an uncomfortable listen; it's just very appropriate for Lost Souls. Listen out for the whispered words, too!
The Sly Fox: One of Ben's quirkier tracks, as heard in Gloria's mad car journey. It's kind of 60's spy movie, meets Pink Panther, and is always a delight to listen to. You'll be humming the base guitar riff for hours afterwards, and creeping around town like an undercover agent. It's damn funky!
Come Closer: A really weird piece of experimentation, this one. It's Amy doing an improvised skipping tune, combined with ethereal humming, and a tinny, distant version of Silent Night. Again, it's a surprisingly ok listen, and not the nightmarish cacophony that you might expect. Then again, who am I to say, given my many years of aural abuse and experimentation?
Dowerton Station: One of Ben's, and a real delight. You hear this in the Station Foyer, hence the title. It's all crystalline shards and metallic drones. I think it captures the interior of the station really well, and suggests ice particles, (it is November after all), and ghosts, hiding in the shadows. I was tempted to add the ticking station clock to the track, but thought better of it. Music is music, so as soon as you add sound effects it becomes a soundtrack. Plus, if you want the extra Station sounds, you can put the game on!
Amy Games: Quite a big track, this one, with it's Tibetan chanting! I'm a big fan of the Fatal Frame games (PS2 games, known by the dull title of Project Zero in the EU), so I've always wanted to get some Eastern elements into one of the soundtracks, and Lost Souls was perfect. The last two Amy Party Games take place is a kind of no-where world, where candles are the only illumination, and alchemical nonsense decorates the walls. Basically, it's quite a creepy room, and a bit of chanting can do nothing more than add an extra creepy layer. I just wish the CD version was a bit longer, but, it's a good listen as it is.
Ok, so that's the ones I've picked out, but there's plenty more to enjoy, or get spooked by. There are 23 tracks in all, from different parts of the game, so I think it's pretty good value. The postage is FREE, as always, to anywhere in the world, so if you are a fan of Lost Souls, game soundtracks, or just want some seriously spooky music, give it a go!
It was a real pleasure to work on the soundtrack with a fellow enthusiast, like Ben, as I think having someone else on-board really added something to both the soundtrack, and the experience of making 'Lost Souls'. Getting demos through the post was a treat, as it was odd not having to do everything myself. So, expect to hear more of Ben's work in future titles, by both myself, and others writers!

So many aspects of life covered in an easy to read and systematic approach to over coming times that at some point affect us all. When things seem so overwhelming and confusing, its so good to have an un-complex book at hand to refer to, reminding us that there is light at the end of a tunnel.

Community Health Needs Assessment 2016
The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) has conducted a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), collecting information on the health status of the community it serves, with the goal of using the data to identify, prioritize and respond to community needs. The contents of the CHNA have been included in this report.
This assessment is aligned with the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that calls for charitable 501(c)(3) hospitals to conduct community health needs assessments (CHNAs) and to develop implementation strategies to address the needs identified through the process every three years. A CHNA is the process by which a hospital will identify the overall health needs within its community by partnering with other community stakeholders to gather data and input from area groups and residents and assessing that information. Hospitals must then prioritize those needs and identify which will be addressed, within the scope of existing community benefit programs or the creation of new programs.
Any eligible hospital that fails to meet CHNA requirements, by the tax year beginning after March 23, 2013, is subject to a $50,000 excise tax, which will be applied separately to each individual facility that is subject to but fails to meet the requirements.
MUSC is a governmental entity funded and operated as a public institution of the State of South Carolina. It has been determined that MUSC is not legally required to submit an extensive CHNA formal report to the IRS. While not required by statute to conduct a CHNA, MUSC has taken measures to proactively conduct this study. We are committed in our efforts to identify, prioritize and develop strategies to respond to the unmet needs of our community.
Long before the recent federal CHNA requirements, MUSC was interested in assessing community need, using resources such as the Community Need Index (CNI), pioneered by Dignity Health in 2005. For years, MUSC completed traditional community benefit plans. The most significant difference between traditional community benefit plans and CHNAs is that a CHNA must take into account input from the community it serves, including individuals/organizations with expertise in public health.
In order to identify the needs of the community, MUSC has compiled and analyzed data about our service area, demographics, social and economic factors and access to health care. MUSC has partnered with Roper St. Francis and Trident United Way to successfully complete a Community Health Needs Assessment Report.
Who We Are
MUSC Health is the clinical enterprise of the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), comprised of a 700-bed medical center, the MUSC College of Medicine and the physician practice plan. It serves patients across South Carolina and beyond through four hospital facilities in Charleston and more than 100 outreach sites.
