October 2011: Pepsi has always created programs and built initiatives that have engaged India's youth at multiple touch-points. This Diwali, the brand is all set to capture the spirit of the youth once again, with their innovative new packaging.
After the much celebrated 'Change The Game' packaging for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011, Pepsi is back with another special edition pack for this festive season: these are available in limited edition 250ml and 330ml cans and 600ml PET bottles.
Speaking about the new designs, Sandeep Singh Arora, Executive Vice President - Marketing, Cola, PepsiCo India said, "Pepsi as a brand continues to innovate. We are confident that our consumers will appreciate the new limited edition designs for Diwali that are inspired by colour, lights and energy!"
Commenting on the design, Santosh Padhi, Chief Creative Officer & Co-founder, Taproot said, "For the special edition festive packs, we captured the Pepsi irreverence using predominantly youth-full graphics and designs in the brand colours – blue and red. It was important to build the right amount of Diwali, celebration and most importantly the 'coolness' of the design, to make sure the attitude of the brand stands out."
The limited edition cans and bottles are available at all leading stores nationwide.

INTU was recently trading at $139.42 and has an implied volatility of 17.97% for this period. Based on an analysis of the options available for INTU expiring on 19-Jan-2018, there is a 45.86% likelihood that the underlying will close within the analyzed range of $119.40-$145.93 at expiration. In this scenario, the average linear return for the trade would be 64.84%.
Price target: Zacks Research has updated their six-month price target for INTU to $132.67. This price target is a consensus price created from the price targets published by 9 participating analysts whose targets ranged from $110.00 to $145.00.
Mean recommendation: Zacks normalizes analyst recommendations to a 1-5 scale where 1 indicates a strong buy. Their mean recommendation for INTU has been updated to 2.48, which indicates a buy consensus from analysts. Sentiment has moved from 2.59 to 2.59 to 2.59 over the past three months.
Trade approach: The difference between the current price for INTU and the mean price target is $0.58, which represents a 4.84% move (10.07% annualized). Since the 180-day implied volatility for INTU is 18.44%, a neutral range-bound strategy could prove effective if the price target ultimately turns out to be accurate.

Based on our analysis, there is a 48.24% likelihood of this return. The maximum return for this trade would be 78.57% if INTUIT closed in the range $125.00-$140.00.

AdamJackson (2999) – Enfield, New Hampshire, USA – FEB 1, 2015 [delete] [move] [convert2tick]
A – Like most of Shaun's pale ales, unfiltered and incredibly cloudy. This is more of a grapefruit juice appearance with a sticky 3 finger white head.
S – Aroma is standard to most galaxy hop beers with passionfruit, grapefruit and a light dank pine aroma.
T – Taste is actually as expected. Chewy Grapefruit skin, pine cone finish with a sweetness in the center. I also get hay / mulch for some reason.
M – Very crisp mouthfeel but it's not as bright or tingly as the most recent single-hops of late (Citra, Amarillo). It's still a solid heavy oily texture with a very bitter lingering finish.
O – Solid beer for what is actually become one of my last favorite hop varieties but as usual, well crafted beer.

When it comes to my personal life, I prefer no questions. I don't mind questions from a friend. I usually can handle questions during a conversation with an acquaintance. My husband, who loves questions, had to teach me how to accept them as a part of normal conversation. I used to feel put off by people who just met me and asked a ton of questions. Now, I try to go with the flow and I ask a few questions myself. Its probably because I dislike small talk that I dislike questions so much.
As a parent, though, I have been introduced to a whole new line of questioning. And I abhor it.
What is he doing?
Can he talk?
What does he say?
Is he walking?
No? followed by…Gasp!
What does he eat?
Are you going to have a girl next?
Is he sleeping through the night?
When are you going back to work?
When are you going to stop breastfeeding?
How will he be socialized if you stay home? Does he go on play dates?
So I have a few questions too:
Why do you think ALL babies walk by 10 months?
Is it so hard to believe that my child eats a robust variety of fruits, vegetables, lean meat and still breastfeeds?
Did you know that the X chromosome to make a girl comes from a man and that we actually have no say in what the gender of our next child will be?
How is staying home to raise my child not work but if I put him in daycare the child care providers are working?
Are you socialized? Do you go on play dates?
Or better yet, lets talk about some adult milestones:
Did you pay your rent on time this month?
When was the last time you stayed gainfully employed with the same employer for over 2 years?
Do you own your home?
Is your car paid off?
How much money do you have saved for retirement?
Are you still on your momma's cell phone plan?
Did you vote?
I don't mean to stymie well meaning people who love my son and are curious about his growth. I just want to let my child grow at his own pace. Bombarding new parents with questions about milestones is a partner to the great evil of child/parenting comparisons. No one wins at that game. I'd rather just enjoy my son and each stage of his development. `

Mediocre candidates need not apply. BS will not be tolerated. Please call for further details. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I do not choose to be a common man. It is my right to be uncommon if I can. I seek opportunity – not security. I want to dream, to fail and to succeed – never to be numbered among those weak and timid souls who have known neither victory nor defeat. I know that happiness can come only from the inside through hard constructive work and sincere positive thinking. I know that the so-called pleasures of the moment should not be confused with a state of happiness. I know that I can get a measure of inner satisfaction from my desires if I intelligently plan and courageously execute it. I know that, if I put forth every iota of strength that I possess – physical, mental, spiritual – toward the accomplishment of a worthwhile task, ere I fall exhausted by the wayside, the Unseen Hand will reach out and pull me through. Yes, I want to live dangerously, plan my procedures on the basis of calculated risks, to resolve the problems of everyday living unto a measure of inner peace. I know if I know how to do all this, I will know how to live, and if I know how to live, I will know how to die. Original by Isabel Tijerina: Thank you.

If you deserve the opportunity, it will be awarded to you when you do not give up!!! What if everything that you knew about your life was about to change? Would you do it anyway? What if the world gave you all the blame? Would you do it anyway? What if the route that you know is right leads to being blue, but going another way means you are untrue, would you do it anyway? Paul McGhee When a person grows into maturity, they realize that life is not about what they want. I am the smallest part of an amazing and massive world. When I look out to the stars and contemplate, I know that MY wants and MY desires are supersceded by a higher need, a higher purpose, and a higher calling. When my life philosophy becomes about everything that is best for me, please kindly remind me of that. I am repulsed by the ME mentality of youth. Let us leave this world having enjoyed our lives and leave it a better place! Paul McGhee I respect people who are loyal to the people that they are close to and I don't have much time for personal politics and drama. I love to entertain, can make a mean meal, and can pick out a great bottle of wine. I am ambitious, willing to make sacrifices now in order to achieve what I want later, but never at the sacrifice of relationships. I enjoy nice things as much as the next guy, but I am adamantly opposed to pretencious people. It's just stuff so don't get too attached. Not that there is anything wrong with toys!

Journalists are used to producing copious amounts of prose – but East Anglian newspaper publisher Archant has encouraged its staff to try their hand at poetry.
In a joint project with the Norfolk and Norwich Festival this week the company's Prospect House HQ played host to poet-in-residence Caroline Gilfillan.
Snippets of verse have been posted in lifts and on notice-boards and staff have been offered a bottle of Champagne for the best original poem.
Workshops and a public poetry reading have been held and an add-aline communal poem posted in the staff canteen.
Gilfillan has also treated staff to daily poems read over the public address system.
Archant morning paper the Eastern Daily Press has published daily poems throughout the week.
EDP editor Peter Franzen said: "With this event, we hope to give some encouragement to anyone who has ever scribbled down a line or two, but thought that poetry was out of their league.
"It's also proving to be a fun few days and a topic of conversation around the building.
"The most unlikely people are discussing the merits of the verse they have just read in the lifts"

Farmers are the ones ploughing money into agriculture
Date Published:
New data compiled for the Food and Agriculture Organisation's State of Food and Agriculture report, published on Thursday, shows that farmers are, by far, the greatest source of investment in agriculture. (..) Farmers' investment decisions are directly influenced by the investment climate in which they operate. In other words, the crucial factor in stimulating agricultural investment is not the size of government investments – although these need to grow too – but whether, and to what extent, developing country governments can provide adequate conditions for farmers to invest.

What's New
This is an urgent fix for an unforeseen issue with Google Talk's XMPP servers closing connections with iTeleport (without any change on our end). We found that by using an older certificate, we're able to temporarily make things work for now.
As Google has announced the retirement of its Google Talk service (which we rely on), we're going to be moving away from Google's servers onto our own, and will keep you updated on the migration process. Stay tuned!
We've also addressed a nasty crash when connecting to a Mac, which wasn't totally fixed in the last update.

A Fish Tale
- Details
- Category: Fish Stories
- Written by Stacy Mantle
We recently purchased our first, slightly used, 55-gallon fish tank. I know you're asking yourself, "How could she possibly get a story out of buying a new tank? Just fill it with water, throw a few fish in, and hope all goes well." Well, in the normal household you're probably right. And at first, that's all we thought it would be. In fact, everything did go well at first. We followed all the directions: carefully placed the gravel in the bottom of the tank, gently placed the plants into the gravel, and cautiously filled with water. Fifty-five gallons of water, to be exact.

Kane recalls 2010 hockey memories
It's been nearly a year since Patrick Kane skated off the ice at Canada Hockey Place in Vancouver with a consolation prize.
Team Canada had just beaten Kane and Team USA as Sidney Crosby ignited a partisan house with a sudden-death overtime goal to give the Canadians a 3-2 victory and the gold medal in the finale of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games. The game was the most-watched hockey game in the United States in 30 years, dating back to the "Miracle on Ice'' Olympic team when the U.S. beat Finland for the gold medal in Lake Placid in 1980, and nearly half of the Canadian population tuned into the broadcast.
But even as the Chicago Blackhawks star came home with silver, he still treasured memories of the Games and more glory to come in succeeding months.
"Playing in the Olympics was awesome, it was unbelievable and a great experience especially playing in Canada," said the 22-year-old right winger, following a Blackhawks practice this week. "It was a great day to play hockey and you always wish you could win that game. But to look back on what the Olympics do for hockey and for kids and how excited they get, it's just a great event."
And there are also the personal highlights.
"After my first goal in the Olympics I remember my dad — I looked up for him in the crowd — and I think he was crying," Kane said. "I asked him afterwards and he said he kind of he broke down a little bit."
Kane and Crosby were supposed to meet for the first time since the Winter Games a year ago in this marquee National Hockey League match between the Blackhawks and the Pittsburgh Penguins.
But the nationally-televised showdown from the United Center, the culmination of USA Hockey's fourth annual Hockey Weekend Across America, will go on without Crosby, who remains sidelined following a January concussion.
For Kane, it is hard to top a year that started with the Olympic Winter Games and got even better as he helped lead the Blackhawks on a spectacular run to the Stanley Cup.
In Game 6 of the Stanley Cup championship series against Philadelphia, Kane got his own game-winning overtime goal as he beat Flyers goalie Michael Leighton and give the Blackhawks a 4-3 victory and their first Cup since 1961.
For the year, he collected 88 points (30 goals, 58 assists) during the regular season and added 19 goals and 23 assists in 38 playoff games. He also had 28 power play goals and six game-winners.
So what was the bigger thrill for Kane — playing in a gold-medal game or winning the Stanley Cup?
"For me, it's the Stanley Cup, because we won that one," he said. "I'm sure other (Canadian) guys in here they might have different feelings — they won an Olympic gold medal in Canada."
Kane has had a long run playing on various USA Hockey national teams.
In 2006, he represented the United States on a gold-medal winning Under-18 team at the International Ice Hockey Federation championships. The next year, he moved up to the U.S. Under-20 team and picked up five goals and four assists for a bronze medal team at the World Juniors.
In 2008, Kane had three goals and seven assists in seven games for a fifth place U.S. team at the IIHF Worlds.
"You're playing in tournaments at 16, 17 years old representing the United States and you think it doesn't get much better than that," Kane said. "And then you get a chance to play in the Olympics and that's pretty sweet."
Hockey Weekend Across America is a USA Hockey initiative to celebrate and grow the sport. Hundreds of events are scheduled, including contests, free clinics and other events from Friday through Sunday.
In Chicago, Kane is featured on a poster promoting local events, which include partnerships with 18 area rinks offering the chance to try hockey for free on Saturday.
They are among around 150 rinks around the nation are promoting the event. In 2010, more than 3,000 kids participated.
Among highlights around the country:
• The Junior Panthers program hosts a President's Day tourney in Boca Raton-Coral Springs, Fla., featuring teams from around the world.
• Davenport, Iowa, has a full weekend ranging from minor league hockey games on Friday, Saturday 3-on-3 tournaments and a sled hockey game between local celebrities and the Quad City Sled Hockey team. Sunday events include a Quad City Blues alumni game, over-30 exhibitions, demonstrations for kids and public skates.
• The Detroit Hockey Association's "Hockey in the Hood 7" includes a tournament featuring diverse inner city and suburban teams competing for a trophy named for Willie O'Ree, the first black player in the NHL.
• In Bayonne, N.J., the Bayonne Hockey Association will stage a benefit game between Bayonne and Jersey City police, fire and emergency rescue personnel. Proceeds will benefit a college fund for the children of Jersey City Detective Marc Dinardo, who was killed in the line of duty in July 2009.
• The Nashville Predators host a free "Girls Only" hockey event at Centennial Sportsplex. Rinks in Knoxville, Tenn. and Huntsville, Ala. will also host Predators-linked activities.
• In River Falls, Wis., the River Falls Youth Hockey Association will honor native Karyn Bye-Dietz, alternate captain of 1998 gold medal winning U.S. women's hockey team and a member of the 2002 Olympic silver medalists.
• In York, Penn., Saturday's free tryout was so popular that a second session was added at The Rink. The York Ice Hockey Club is also hosting a Bantam AA and Under 18 AA President's Day Classic.
• In Skaneateles, N.Y., the local Youth Hockey Association is creating an outdoor rink for old-fashioned pond hockey games on Saturday and Sunday.
• And in New York City, the NHL's Rangers host their third annual Winter Hockey Fest from noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday at Wollman Rink in Central Park.

It's tough to get super excited for this week considering we're coming off the awesome high that is Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but it's Christmas and we still have some rather huge movies getting ready to hit theaters. Get ready for Concussion, Daddy's Home, Joy and Point Break.
Just remember, I'm not reviewing these movies, but rather predicting where they'll end up on the Tomatometer. Let's take a look at This Rotten Week has to offer.
Rotten Watch Prediction
Preview the true story of the doctor who shed light on the problem in the trailer for the film below:
Concussion, starring Will Smith, tells the story of Doctor Bennet Omalu's independent research into ex-football players brains and how he began to uncover the traumatic brain injury known as Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy latent in these guys from hundreds and maybe thousands knocks on the noggin over the course of their careers. Of course, the NFL didn't Omalu's initial findings as it implied the game killing the players both quickly and slowly. The film details the NFL's effort to stifle Omalu's findings because well, it made them look terrible. Concussions are still very much an issue in the NFL, and could ultimately be its undoing - though that's more of the long game. In the short term, the sport's still wildly popular of course.
Director Peter Landesman has been down the somewhat-controversial-historical-storyline trail before, helming movies like Kill the Messenger and Parkland. Both of those films explored narratives around characters involved in controversial situations. This is down the same path. While critics aren't necessarily over the moon about the film, they like it well enough. Some think it's Oscar bait – and that very well may be, but it should play well enough anyway.

Out of stock
A rare set of Danny Ho Fong Tropi-Cal Chairs, these four bamboo-framed, rattan-backed are collector worthy pieces with the distinctive tropical California style.

Lesley Slaton Brown has worked in the tech industry for 20 years, working all around the world and earning a top leadership role at HP, Inc. This weekend, she's returning to her hometown to speak at the graduation ceremony of the youngest University of California campus.
Slaton Brown, 51, was born and raised in Merced. She attended Merced schools and graduated from Merced High School in 1984. She went on to earn her bachelor's degree from Boise State University, where she also lettered in basketball on a NCAA scholarship.
Slaton Brown is the chief diversity officer at HP. Last year, she was named the 2016 Woman of the Year in Technology by the Silicon Valley's Chapter of National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc. as well as the 2016 Multicultural Leadership Award by the National Diversity Council.
She's led efforts to address the digital divide in Senegal, West Africa and has worked on projects focused on broadening representation of women and minorities in computer education and careers.
Speaking at UC Merced's commencement ceremony for the school of engineering is one of the highest honors in her life, she said.
In an interview with the Sun-Star, Slaton Brown spoke about Merced and how her experiences here shaped her personally, professionally and drove her passion.
Q: Describe your time living in Merced. How do you remember it?
"I was born and raised in Merced, Calif., from grade school to high school, right there in Merced. When I was attending university, I came home one summer and actually took a couple classes at Merced Community College.
"Merced was such a family-oriented community. Everybody knew everybody. Families knew each other. I couldn't get out of line because Mrs. Stuart next door would tell my mom. ... It was a place where you grew up, and not only did you know everyone, you had generations of family there. I grew up around my maternal grandmother and paternal grandparents and all of my extended family. I went to school with my cousins all the way through high school."
Q: What's changed since then?
"My mother still lives in Merced, so I do get back to Merced fairly often.
"The one thing that strikes me – I still see Merced as very much a wonderful opportunity when you think about the (University of California) system being in Merced now. There's a phenomenal opportunity for growth, academia and education.
"What's a little different to me that's a concern, is I don't see – and I'm not there day to day– but I don't see where the growth is aligning to some of these wonderful opportunities like UC Merced. I would love to see greater growth and progression, like small businesses and industry.
"I also see more crime in Merced. I personally worry about my mother as an elder and her safety. That's a little bit different.
"When I was growing up in Merced, we had the military base here. That brought new and diverse thinking, multiculturalism. It brought new events, cultural events, and restaurants. That seems a bit stagnant."
Q: What have been some defining moments in your career?
"First and foremost, I've felt very fortunate to be born into the family I was born into – not only my family, but my extended family. Merced, when I was growing up, the teachers really cared. They took a vested interest in you as a student. ...
"Merced shaped me into having that multicultural perspective, a diverse perspective, well before we used those words. ...What I found is, as I moved from Merced, I left a very multicultural, diverse area, and moved to Boise. I brought this perspective with me that was very different. I also brought with me an opportunistic attitude that 'you can grow, you can change, you can evolve.' But, it takes a community. That's what Merced was."
Q: What's it like having a job that's all about diversity?
"It's my dream sequence.
"Now, who I am – who I truly, authentically am – and the things I care about personally, have evolved professionally. I've had the opportunity to work globally, in a company that serves 170 countries across the globe.
"It's everything that I could have hoped for, in having those three things come together – me, personally, my profession, and my passion."
Q: What's your advice for UC Merced graduates?
"The messages that I want to share — there's three things I really want to tell the students, and I would tell my younger self the same things.
"As you go through from where you are now to where you will be, begin to take steps that others will follow one day. You're starting a course that others will watch and do, hopefully, and go beyond. When you think of the shoulders we stand on, you have to know where you come from in order to know where you're going. Begin to take steps others will follow one day."
"Open new doors. Look for new ways, innovative ways, to help solve problems. I'm speaking to the school of engineering. Engineers are problem solvers. Solve new problems, disrupt systems that require change."
"And then, lead. We need more leaders, and we need more thoughtful leaders. The beauty of coming from some place like Merced, for me, where my roots are, and the beauty for someone who may have come there to the San Joaquin Valley to go to school, is that you bring a new and different perspective. And the world is anxiously awaiting for you to bring it."
Q: How do you feel returning to Merced to speak at a University of California commencement ceremony?
"This is such an honor for me because I so believe in my community. I still consider Merced my community. It's my community because of what it gave me. It nurtured me to become the woman I am today. ...
"When I think about coming back to UC Merced, I am in awe of what I see these administrators do, not only for students and for the university, but for the Merced community.
"I think opportunity still exists for Merced to step up, grab a hold of it and run with it. It can create something much like the Silicon Valley. Merced can evolve into a place that really impacts the globe.
"It's probably one of greatest honors in my lifetime to come back to my community and share my story about how I came from Merced to the Silicon Valley to impact the world."

Officials have requested an independent investigation into a Georgia police department's handling of an incident in which an officer told a black driver "I don't care about your people" in a heated exchange during a traffic stop.
Cobb County Department of Public Safety Director Sam D. Heaton said in a statement Monday that the officer's actions are unacceptable and don't reflect the department's views.
Heaton said he and the county manager have asked the county attorney's office to investigate the handling of the incident by police command staff.
Lawyer surprised by quick response from police
Dashcam video shows the Nov. 16 incident northwest of Atlanta, in suburban Cobb County. Police Capt. J.D. Adcock wrote in a Nov. 24 letter to the driver that the department had taken steps including "formal discipline."
Kimberly Bandoh, who is representing Brian Baker, told CBS46 last week she wasn't expecting to see a police department act so quickly and admit something an officer said was wrong.
"They didn't play games. They didn't delay the process. I was surprised by that, I'm impressed and I appreciate it," Bandoh said.
It turns out this is the second time Officer Maurice Lawson has received a complaint within a few months. The first one was from Cobb County Commissioner Lisa Cupid, who thought she was being racially profiled when Lawson mistook her for a suspicious person and closely followed her SUV for about two miles.
Lawson is being reassigned to patrol a different area.

Last winter, I spent some time in Northern California. While I was there, I did some serious exploring and loved every minute of it. By far, the best part was Big Sur, with amazing views at every hairpin turn on Highway 1 (above).
Although Minnesota doesn't have the warm coastal beaches of California, we do have the North Shore of Lake Superior. Duluth and northward makes for a great escape from the city, all within an easy afternoon drive from Minneapolis.
If you're thinking of a destination wedding, don't forget about the great spots in Minnesota that would make for a great mini-getaway wedding. It's almost as fun as doing a long-distance destination wedding (Mexico and the like), but you can still mix in some Minnesota woodsy and coastal flavor.
One wedding-worthy destination north of Duluth is is Blue Fin Bay, a resort on the shoreline on Lake Superior and also voted "Minnesota's Most Romantic Resort". I'm also partial since that's where I honeymooned with my hubby. But, seriously, how beautiful is that shoreline? You can hardly tell the difference between our coast and California's.
Duluth has beautiful venues too, including the Greysolon Ballroom and Glensheen, the Historic Cogden Estate. Whether you go north of Duluth or not, there are stunning venues and vistas anywhere along the North Shore for weddings and receptions.

Presentation Type
Poster Presentation
Symposium Date
Spring 2012
Many times in a conflict, there are three different accounts of what happened: person one's side, person two's side, and the truth. As often as this saying gets made and joked about, it does reveal truth about how perception and truth don't always align. With this thought, I compared students' perceived participation in a classroom setting in comparison to their actual class participation. Each student will participate in a normal class, while their participation is being measured. They will then take a survey and be re-measured for the same amount of time so that they may be able to more accurately place their perceptions. After all data has been collected, it will be compared to that which was collected the year before in the same manner at a different school. It will be compared through mean, mode, and median.

Maddie's® Canine Lifesaving Apprenticeship at Austin Pets Alive!
Do you want to learn how to develop systems that will empower your organization to save more lives? Been wanting to put a Play Group or Behavioral program in place? Want to address Length of Stay with a proven program? This apprenticeship will teach you the vision and guiding principles of the canine lifesaving ecosystem and how to apply it in your community.
Who Should Apply?
Shelter/rescue organization directors, managers and board members.
Today in Austin 98% of dogs that enter the shelter system have a live outcome. Austin Pets Alive!'s systematic approach to canine lifesaving plays a huge role in making this possible. At Austin Pets Alive! dogs are treated as individuals and take part in multiple programs in order to help APA! staff and volunteers learn more about the dog and help the dog find a forever home.
How Does it Work?
Students will spend 5 days at Austin Pets Alive! and take away a thorough understanding of the key programs and practices involved in achieving no-kill for your shelter's canine population, as well as the guiding philosophies that meld it all together. Attendees will have the ability to more effectively assess and meet the needs of the dogs in their care and develop a framework for how to implement practical, actionable changes in their efforts to achieve their lifesaving missions. Factual information specific to progressive, lifesaving programs that can be utilized to affect needed change within their shelter, and/or to motivate/convince key stakeholders will be presented by key APA! and AAC staff, led by Mike Kaviani.
Students will spend 5 days learning about the individual programs that support dogs during and after their time at APA! including:
- Ongoing assessment
- Enrichment
- Playgroup
- Dog Behavior program
- Foster
- Animal Protection
- Community Outreach
- Clinic's role in the health of the dog
- Utilizing volunteers
- Length of stay plan
- Open Adoptions
- Adoption follow up
A $1,200 stipend to cover travel and lodging will be awarded to the organization of each student chosen.
Applications August 8 - 17, 2018 - Application Closed

This post is part of a series of music interviews I did back when I was running an indie music website and going to gigs almost every other day. More than six years later, I discovered the texts in an old database backup, translated them to English and started publishing them, mostly for nostalgic reasons.
The name says it all. Holy Fuck are from Canada and play music on everything they can get their hands on. Their concerts are wild parties and massive jam sessions at the same time. I met Graham Walsh, one of the guys behind the keyboards and mixers.
I know you probably hate those questions about your band name, but people seem to be really crazy about that name. What was the craziest thing that ever happened to your because of it?
Graham: Believe it or not, there aren't even that many stories. It did happen that we weren't allowed to play because of our name. They took us off the bill last-minute. Like, "What? They're called Holy Fuck? They can't play here!" (laughs) That was in London. We have this kind of love-rate-relationship with that city. Actually, we always play really good shows there and the people like us. But then we were supposed to play at Trafalgar Square, which is pretty big, and the mayor saw the lineup and didn't allow us to play. I guess he didn't like swear words.
Do you have a favourite swear word?
I only know English swear words and a Frensh one: "merde". Oh, and of course "scheiße"! But my favourite one really is "fuck". It's a great word and has a big spectrum: sometimes it's harsh, sometimes it's soft and sometimes it's just beautiful and vulgar at the same time.
How do you guys write your songs? I've heard that you never rehearse...
Oh, that's maybe a bit exaggerated. But it'S true, we don't really practice the way other bands do it. We're on tour a lot and don't live in the same city so we've found other ways. We're actually on the road so much and play so many gigs, that we're pretty experienced and just know how to play the songs. New songs just evolve over time – someone starts with an idea and the others contribute theirs. Like a beautiful flower that's growing and growing and finally blossoms. It just happens, we don't have a songwriter to tell the other's what to do.
You're using a lot of unusual instruments, like toy keyboards and film projectors. Are there any other items that you'd love to make music on?
Oh man, everything that makes cool and interesting sounds. There's this computer system for hair salons that analyses your hair and tells you if they're too dry or too frizzy. When you turn it on, it makes really cool sounds, like beeping and distorted effects. We wanted to use it in the beginning, when we started experimenting with different things. But it would have been way too big and awkward to take on stage.
On stage you play everything live and barely use any samples...
There was definitely a concept behind this, but we also just had to do this out of necessity. We just used the tools that were available back then. We didn't have any samplers, synthesizers or the right computer equipment. Instead, we just used keyboards and lo-fi toys.
What's it like on tour with you guys? Are you a tidy and organised band?
Yeah, I guess. Sure, if you're travelling a lot, you can't always do your laundry and sometimes have to wear dirty clothes. But we're definitely not a shabby hippie punk band! We get along well and it just works. But I know other bands that have to lay down a lot more rules. Friends of mine have this rule, "No food on stage" and I was like... no food on stage? Why on earth do you eat on stage? (laughs)
Do you have any favourite live moments?
Oh yes, definitely. We played the Primavera Sound festival in Spain and were playing at five in the morning on the big stage. The sun just came up and during the last song ther was a stage invasion. I nthe end, ther were around 100 and 150 people on stage. We couldn't really play anymore and our music turned into random noise. That was one of the best moments ever. You can watch the whole thing on YouTube!
Aside from that, any other places you enjoyed playing?
Too many. I like the West Coast of the US, California is very nice. The Canadian East Coast, too. In Europe we once played in Norway, that was great. Brighton is also nice. And it's hard to say, it really depends on the day and how much time you have. Even if the city sucks, maybe it's a sunny day and we hang out in a park and have the best time of the whole tour. Our the other way around: When I was in Paris for the first time, I didn't see anything of the city. Not even the Eiffel Tower, just a run-down club with a shitty bar, a van and a hotel room. On tour, you're trapped in a big bubble.
If you hadn't become a musician, what do you think you'd be doing today?
It's hard to say, because ever since I was little I was always into music. Before I started the band, I did graphic design and had a job in that field. So I think I'd probably still be a graphic designer. I designed a few things for the band as well, a concert poster here and there and one of our shirts. Most of it was done by my friend James, though. He's an artist and much better than me. (laughs)
And our last question that we ask every band: If you had to choose the cause for a big demonstration – what would you protest against?
I'd love to say something cool and funny but I really can't think of anything. One thing that Canada definitely needs more of is people on bikes. When you come to Europe, like the Netherlands for example, you see so many of them and it's great!

Episode 12: Corné van WilligenFirst aired: Tuesday, 15 December 2015 at 18.24 hours
Corné van Willigen is the boss of Hi-Fi Corner in Groningen, an outlet for audio and video: TVs radios and more. Van Willigen this year won the fourteenth edition of the Young Entrepreneur Award with his business.
Corné van Willigen (28) has been around since 2010 in charge of audio Hi-Fi Corner shop in Groningen. "Since I am at the helm, the focus is on online," says the young entrepreneur.
Because if you want to keep doing it, then you can not go to the Internet, Van Willigen. "We sell especially quality music equipment," he says.
The entrepreneur won the 2014 Young Entrepreneur Award, the jury called him a 'Pietje Bell'. The store is still important to support. People want to look first and then buying over the internet".
Customers can also chat with employees of the store. "Our specialty is distinctive," says Van Wiligen. "Our added value is in a little system of the construction, but the slightly more expensive segment".
Hi-Fi Corner wants to expand in Germany and France. "We would like to expand, but our market is also under pressure. So we need more markets."
The entrepreneur has not decided yet whether it will run everything themselves, or there may be a franchise concept. "With do it yourself you may like more grip," says Van Wiligen.
The company now employs 18 people. "We want to continue doing business as efficiently as possible and automate," says Van Wiligen. "At night work only a consultant to assist you online."

STOCKTON - It was an early morning race created to help the hungry but really, for many, it was an excuse to work up a Thanksgiving Day appetite.
STOCKTON - It was an early morning race created to help the hungry but really, for many, it was an excuse to work up a Thanksgiving Day appetite.
Sisters Ann and Joan Shimakawa could not stop talking about food as they ran: their menu for later, some story about a Southwest-inspired chili-infused dish from years past and so on.
"Joan signed us up" for the race, Ann Shimakawa, 50, explained Thursday between gasps for air. "Since she's cooking, we figured we had to do it or else we wouldn't get dinner."
The sisters from Stockton earned their meal. Their entry fees may help someone in need have his later this season.
About 3,500 people resisted the urge to sleep in and instead ran or strolled through downtown Stockton for the fifth annual Run and Walk Against Hunger.
Race director Ralph Womack said more and more people sign up each year, and he guessed as much as $60,000 was raised this year to benefit the Greater Stockton Emergency Food Bank.
"There was a lot of skepticism that you could make this a big race," Womack said. "I think most people are coming out because it's a good cause."
Whether it was the act of charity or the hopes of boosting their metabolism, something compelled thousands to leave their warm beds and venture into the 40-degree morning.
The crowd gathered at the Fremont Street starting line measured more than a block deep, creating a sea of white running shirts.
Short-shorts-clad hard-core runners packed the front of the group. They were spotted later in the race seemingly sprinting a second lap with their focused (pained?) faces grimacing.
Others took a more leisurely pace. Linda Myers walked along her son, Patrick Doherty, who was in a wheelchair, and his caregiver Sid Holt.
"It's just such a great way to start the day and be thankful for what we've got," said Myers, 63, before the race started. "The turkey will still get cooked."

Candle offering made on behalf of a client at a public Santa Muerte altar in Tijuana, Mexico.
Candle was prepared by a local botanica and the wax at the top of the candle was etched with the client's name.
This was the altar that was being upgraded last time - upgrades complete!
I've also found a couple more Santa Muerte altars around Tijuana that I'll be able to show off as more people make requests for altar offerings - so stay tuned and thanks for reading!

Gay Sanders – President
Gay was born in 1944 during the second world war, raised in London until she was 25 years old the moved to Canada. She lived in Vancouver for two years, then Fernie for eight. In 1979 she moved to Williams Lake when she Married her late husband Richard. She worked for the federal government for 16 years, and after was a travel agent for 10 years. Gay joined the board of Jubilee Care House in 1993, remained on the board until joined CMHA. She became Chair of CMHA in 2008 where she has remained, and feels that mental health of everyone is very important in their lives.
Bob McNie – Vice President
Bob and his family moved from Vancouver to the Cairboo in 1992. Bob worked at Jubilee Care House for a couple of years at which time he sat on their board as a director and later served as President. Bob has served on the CMHA-CCB board for over thirteen years. He has held the seat of director and vice president. For over thirty years Bob has worked within Mental Health. Fifteen years at Riverview Psychiatric Hospital as a Healthcare Worker. After obtaining his RN Diploma, he worked for seventeen years at Gateway Crisis Stabilization Unit until he retired in 2014. Bob continues to advocate for people with mental illness. It is especially important for Bob to continue working toward destigmatizing mental illness.
John Stace-Smith – Secretary/Treasurer
Born 1956, raised in Vancouver, graduated from UBC and have practiced professional forestry since 1979 in Williams Lake, working both for local sawmills and consulting. I have three children, all have grown up and moved south to pursue their careers, and four grandchildren. I have been part of the CMHA Board of Directors since the organization was Jubilee Care Society, so at least 2 decades. My present position with the board is secretary/treasurer and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with all the staff and other directors over the years. For me, working with CMHA has been so useful in my understanding of mental health issues, funding and access to resources and programs that support individuals locally. I've always been impressed by the provincial and national advocacy and support that helps our branch deliver at the community level.
Linda Goodrich – Director
I've been on the Board for 19 years. Presently, I am a director. I am a retired nurse. I spent a few years working in Paediatrics but most of my time was working with the elderly and otherwise fragile people. I worked in Deni House, Cariboo Lodge and Wms. Lake Seniors Village.I'm married to Brian and we have 3 grown children. 2 grandchildren and a few others that nearly are. As most people, we have mental illness in our family: Schizophrenia and depression being the two majors. It is important to all of us to maintain our own mental health and realize how fragile that sometimes is. Being on the CMHA Board is enjoyable and we have a good team. I appreciate Ian and all of you and realize how important you are to the community.
Alan Giddens – Director
I moved to Williams Lake in 1981 from Vernon where I had lived for 4 years. Before that I lived in various places in Ontario having been born in a small town in Northern Ontario on the shores of Lake Superior. The town of Wawa….where the winters are cold and the summers laden with black flies and mosquitoes. My interests lie in fishing, hiking, music and now that I am retired travelling. I came to Williams Lake to work in a mill as a machinist and later worked as a planner, millwright, supervisor and eventually a maintenance superintendent. I retired in 2013. I guess I consider myself a musician and have done a few gigs around mostly playing a folky, bluesy type of music with some original music. I have played to help out various charities in the area. I originally "signed up" as a director of the CMHA in order to educate myself as to the activities the group has and to help out the community. I am still involved for those reasons and it never ceases to amaze me how much need there is for the CMHA in this area and how much work it accomplishes.
David Hodder – Director
My name is David Hodder and I am grateful to be an ordinary member of the CMHA Board which I joined in December 2015. I am an Immigrant who came to Williams Lake from the United Kingdom in the summer of 2007 on a work permit and gained my Canadian citizenship in 2013. I have worked in a customer service role in one capacity or another for over 20 years. I currently work as a Case Manager for the WorkBC Centre in Williams Lake which operates under the Employment Program of BC. I work closely with the CMHA's Employment Program Coordinator, Codie Thompson, to ensure that all persons in BC are given the tools and abilities necessary to get back into employment. I volunteered for the CMHA board as I wanted to give back to the community that has treated me so well since arriving here. I have always taken my mental health for granted, but working here at WorkBC has made me realise just how important community organizations such as the CMHA are for those who need extra support and I am proud to part of such a caring association.

Workshop Modules
Cybercity Ruhr conducts workshops. There are several workshop modules that can be combined or individually adapted.
1. Module Research Urban History, Present, Future Outlook/Analysis
Students conduct a research on the internet and in the library to learn about their city's and region's history, its present state and future urban plans. These concepts will be researched on topics like history, economics and culture. Another possibility is the research of certain districts instead of the entire city. Topics can be adapted.
2. Module Research Favorite Place/Hate Place
Students will express which places they like and dislike most in their environment by drawing and writing about them. They conduct a research to find out more about these locations. Subsequently, they will determine which elements make these spots either good or bad places for them. The module gives students a personal and subjective approach to their city and initiates a process in which they become aware of their own needs. This awareness is essential for planning their ideal future city.
3. Module City Walk
Students experience their environment physically by walking. They visit interesting sites and current urban planning projects, approaching the locations by sketching and measuring them with their bodies. While measuring the places with their own bodies, they literally become `the measure of all things'. They become the center of their perception, making it a personal, almost intimate experience to explore the city. The module can be extended by different types of action art.
4. Module Research Architecture/Urban Planning
In addition and extension of module one, this module is meant for students to explore more specific topics like green/sustainable architecture, population growth and modern technology in architecture through research on the internet. They learn about the definitions in general and study examples. They think of examples for their environment, either realistic or visionary. Topics can be adapted.
5. Module Research Intuitive Mapping
To discover what students think is important in their city environment, this module focuses on intuitively drawing an oversized map together. The map indicates places like the researched landmarks, favorite and hate places and future visions. Participants are asked to draw what they think the city should consist of on the map within a short time frame. Participants rotate around the map and draw on different places. This map will function as a visual summary of the research modules and as a starting point of what the Cybercity will look like.
6. Module Designing and Constructing a Video Robot
This module focuses on the creation of a video robot by the participants. The robot will ride through the eventual exhibition and is steered by visitors. Students will learn how to build a video robot, including techniques (electronics) and video installation. Each robot in each project has a different look, which means the design of the robot is left to the students. Various types are possible, starting with a simple cable video robot that even very young children can build.
7. Module Planning, Locating, Describing and Constructing a Maquette and its Environment
|Students will determine in a written plan what they are going to build, where it is located, what it looks like, what materials it is build of, what dimensions it has and they describe the vision behind it. Continuously, students construct a maquette and its environment with various materials. Depending on the capabilities of the group, it is also possible to create interactive environments. The constructing module can vary in number of days and hours per day.
8. Module Photographic or Video Screen Backdrops
The students relate their future vision to the real environment. They decide where their vision should be placed in the actual city if it was to be realized. We will then create backdrops with panoramic photos of the real environment. Explored through the "eye" of the video robot, the combination of the 3D models and the photo-panoramics will create realistic urban landscapes, giving the visitor a lively glimpse into the future of the city.
Alternatively the scale-model can also be surrounded by a video installation, which will create an even stronger impression of a lively city.
9. Module Local Interactive Exhibition
After workshop modules one to eight, a local exhibition with the produced maquettes will be set up as a Cybercity, including a (self made) video robot. Participants set up the exhibition, invite press and public and secure the exhibition. The robot can be steered by the participants/visitors of the exhibition. The video robot is connected to a projector that projects the cybercity images onto a large screen.
10. Module Video Documentary
The video documentary allows the audience to get behind the scenes, giving insights into the process of building a Cybercity. It shows the project through the eyes of the participants and reflects their perspective. This can be done by us or by the participants themselves. In the second case, some participants are advised and guided in the basics of developing and realizing a documentary: operating a camera, recording sound, conducting interviews, writing a short synopsis and a storyboard.
